The bandits raided Dongtai County and attacked the county government at lightning speed. The bandit leader Chen Dong released all the prisoners in the county government prison. In an instant, hundreds of people gathered together, and the momentum became strong. These people set fires and smashed them everywhere. Many buildings in the county government quickly fell into a sea of ​​fire, and the entire small city was reflected in red by the flames.

The Houya was the place where the magistrate and his family lived. Zhu Wan was naturally awakened by such a big disturbance in front of him. He got up and quickly took off the knife hanging on the wall, and then lit the oil lamp.

At this time, the door of the room was slapped quickly. Zhu Wan's wife Zhou was so scared that she curled up to the corner of the wall with her son who had just been full of the moon. Zhu Wan pulled out her waist and shouted: "Who?"

"Master, something is wrong. A large number of thieves have already attacked the government office. Come and run away."

Zhu Wan hurriedly opened the door and saw that the butler Zhu Si outside the house was standing behind him with a pale face. Then she asked in a deep voice: "Where did the thief come from? How many people are there?"

Zhu Si shook his head and said anxiously: "I don't know. The fire in the front yamen is now chaotic, and the number of people is estimated to be no less than two or three hundred. The master will take his wife and the young master to leave through the back door."

Zhu Wan rushed out of the yard and looked in the direction of the fire rising, and her face changed. It was the county jail. It was probably the pirate Chen Sipan's accomplices who had robbed the prison. There were hundreds of prisoners in the prison. This was a problem.

At this moment, gunshots and shouts of killing came from the county government warehouse. Zhu Wan's face became extremely ugly. At this time, he had already eight or nine points, that must be Chen Sipan's accomplices, and the other party had absolutely no support to cooperate, otherwise it would be impossible to attack the county government so quickly.

"Zhu Si, take your wife and the young master away from the back door immediately." Zhu Wan said decisively.

Zhu Si hurriedly said, "Master, I don't know how many thieves have entered the city now. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time. You can hide quickly."

Zhu Wan said in a deep voice: "I am a parent official in Dongtai County. I have the responsibility to defend the territory, so how can I escape without authorization? What's more, I promised in front of the imperial envoy that if the stolen silver and wealth in the warehouse are lost, I will apologize for death."

"Master, there are five hundred battalions of elite guards in the warehouse..."

"Stop talking nonsense, go quickly!" Zhu Wan interrupted with a cold shout.

The housekeeper Zhu Si knew his master's temperament well, and knew that it would be futile to persuade him. He shouted: "Madam, go with the old slave."

Zhou's face was as pale as paper. He hugged his son who had just been full of the moon, and held Zhu Wan's sleeve with one hand and cried, "My husband must be careful."

Zhou obviously knew that his man was upright and stubborn. As long as he made up his mind, he would not turn back even if he had made up his mind. Therefore, he did not advise him, but only reminded him to pay attention to safety.

Zhu Wan said with a juvenile expression: "I know, take Cong'er away quickly, it's too late." After saying that, he looked at his son who was still awake.

Zhou wiped his tears and followed the butler Zhu Si to the corner gate of the backyard. Watching his wife and children leave, County Magistrate Zhu instantly became warlike and said to the two servants: "Let's go, go kill the thief with me!"

Zhu Wan said as she lifted the hem of her sleeper and tucked it around her waist, and took a knife and walked forward. Seeing this, the two servants couldn't help but become brave and followed with a shoulder pole. Three servants joined along the way.

Zhu Wan took five servants to the second hall and met three prisoners who tried to insult a maid. The maid had messy hair and only wore a bellyband. Her pajamas were torn to pieces outside.

Zhu Wan couldn't help but shouted with a burst of eyes. She rushed forward and slashed over the prisoner who pressed on the maid. The maid was splashed with blood and ran away screaming. The other two prisoners retreated in horror. Zhu Wan rushed forward and slashed and killed another person, leaving the prisoner stumbled and fled forward.

The warlike magistrate Zhu was so aggressive that he chased after him with murderous intent. The five servants were obviously infected by the bravery of the head of the family and rushed forward with a shoulder pole.

However, Zhu Wan and others soon encountered a group of pirates carrying weapons. Although County Magistrate Zhu was brave, he could not defeat four hands after all, and soon became dangerous. Five servants were also killed.

Bang bang bang bang...

At this critical moment, gunfire suddenly sounded, and seven or eight pirates fell down instantly, and the other pirates were immediately frightened and ran away with their heads in fear. Zhu Wan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When she looked up, she saw ten 500 battalions of soldiers running towards her while loading ammunition. The leader was the sharpshooter Guo Jindiu.

"Mr. Zhu is okay?" Guo Jindiao led nine brothers to Zhu Wan, and at the same time he had completed the loading.

Zhu Wan shook her head and said, "Fortunately, President Guo came here in time, otherwise my official's life would be given. How is the situation in the warehouse?"

Guo Jinyu said in a deep voice: "He has been surrounded by a large number of thieves, and there are probably as many as two or three hundred people. The leader of Dongsha Island is Chen Dong, the second in command of Dongsha Island. They released all the prisoners in the prison. By the way, there are many Japanese pirates among them. Zhao Baihu is worried that Lord Zhu will make mistakes, so he asked his subordinates to lead ten brothers to break out to Lord Zhu."

Zhu Wan nodded and said, "Zhao Baihu is interested, Mr. Guo, do you think the warehouse can be blocked in a low position?"

Guo Jinyu said with a serious expression: "It is hard to say that there are many thieves and there are many bows and crossbows on hand. This is extremely unfavorable to us, and we are afraid that they will attack with fire."

Zhu Wan shook her head: "The thief's target is the wealth in the warehouse, and it is unlikely that he will set fire to the warehouse."

Guo Jindiao said confidently: "Then our brothers should be fine until dawn!"

Zhu Wanxiu said: "In this way, I will gather people to rescue me. Please help me!"

"No problem, brothers, please make the way!" Guo Jindiu shouted loudly, and nine 500 battalion soldiers protected Zhu Wan and rushed out.

The main force of the thieves was besieging the warehouse. At this time, those who were wandering around were raped and plundering were all prisoners or pirates who were greedy for small gains. There was an opponent of the fierce soldiers like Guo Jindi, and they were chopped over after one encounter.

Zhu Wan and others rushed to the stable with great force, led the horses and rushed out of the county government.

At this time, fires surged into the sky everywhere in the city, and some prisoners who escaped from the prison were taking the opportunity to set fire and rob, demons danced around, and the order of the entire city was in chaos.

Seeing the city under his rule in such chaos, Zhu Wan was angry and painful, and roared and galloped. Whenever she encountered a thief who set fire on the street, she would immediately kill him with a knife.

"I am the magistrate of Dongtai County Zhu Wan. Those who commit crimes will be killed without mercy!" Zhu Wan ran and shouted loudly. Soon, many patrol officers and yamen run together.

When Zhu Wan and others came outside the Yanyun Branch office, nearly fifty people had gathered. Zhu Wan was about to get off the horse, strode up the stone steps, slapped the gate of the Yanyun Branch office with force, and shouted loudly: "I am Zhu Wan, Judge Xu quickly took people with me to kill the thief."

Dongtai County is the main salt-producing land, with a Salt Transport Branch here. The chief is the judge Xu Jiong, who has 500 salt diced rice under his command.

Zhu Wan slapped for a while and the door finally opened. An old official leaned out and said with care: "Mr. Zhu, our judge had taken people out to inspect the salt field yesterday and had not returned yet!"

Zhu Wan hurriedly asked, "Where is Xu Jiong setting up camp?"

"This... I don't know about it!"
