Manager Hu's sudden words made Feng Ang unable to react for a moment. After all, things like siege were too far away from the Lingnan under his rule.
"Attack our Si'an city!"
When Manager Hu shouted these words, his voice was trembling. He didn't know whether he was scared or angry!
Perhaps, there should be more anger here. After all, in Lingnan, the Feng family has always been the only one to attack cities and plunder villages. How can there be any precedent of being attacked by others?
"What? Attack here?!"
As soon as Hu Guanshi finished speaking, Feng Ang reacted immediately! His tiger eyes widened suddenly, and he stretched out his hand to grab him, and the saliva from his mouth sprayed out like a rain of flowers: "Who? Who is tired of living!
How dare you come here and act wild!"
"No...I don't know...the people I just asked just got the news and are rushing to the city gate!"
"How many people are coming?!"
"I don't know about this..."
"waste!"
Facing the clueless Manager Hu, Feng An almost lost his temper and smoke came out of his nostrils on the spot!
Feng Ang pushed the thin steward Hu away fiercely. Without saying a word, Feng An turned over and jumped on the horse. He raised his whip and wanted to ride towards the city gate, but suddenly he remembered that Xiao Han and others were still here.
"What happened today made Xiaohou laugh! Please follow Mr. Hu back to the house to rest for a while. I'll come back as soon as I go!"
He threw his hands indiscriminately, and Feng An was really in no mood to be polite. Without saying a word, he rushed out like the wind! Only Xiao Han, Ren Qing, Hu Guanshi and others were left looking at each other in shock.
The sound of horse hooves faded away, and the hustle and bustle on the street gradually disappeared. Xiao Han stood in the cold wind of the autumn night, looking at the dark long street in front of him, and asked the manager Hu next to him uncertainly: "Ahem, Old Hu, you guys
, and riots often occur?”
At this time, Manager Hu's old face was almost wrinkled like a bitter gourd, his lips trembled several times, and then he cupped his hands to Xiao Han and said: "Young Master Marquis is joking, Shi'an City has always been peaceful, and I haven't heard of the war between swords and weapons for many years.
Woe to you."
"What about today?"
"Today, this... maybe some stupid thief with no eyesight has taken the wrong path! Mr. Marquis, please follow me back to the house. Later, I will catch the thief back and everything will be clear."
In his heart, he scolded this short-sighted thief so much that Manager Hu just wanted to take Xiao Han home quickly and not let him see his family's jokes again.
"That's fine!" Xiao Han listened to what Manager Hu said and followed suit. Although he was still a little curious about the people who attacked the city, but wanted to go and see for himself? Then forget it!
After all, he is no longer a rookie on the battlefield. He knows that the stones and arrows used in sieges are not long-sighted. If he accidentally gets hit twice, it will be a huge loss.
After deciding where to go, the group remounted their horses and walked slowly along the long street.
Seeing that Feng Mansion was about to arrive, Xiao Han suddenly seemed to remember something and asked Manager Hu in front of him: "By the way, are our people here?"
"Master Marquis, your people?" Manager Hu didn't know what he was thinking at this time. He was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly came to his senses, shook his head and said: "They shouldn't be there yet. If they arrive, the family will come over."
Notify the old man."
"Not here yet?" Xiao Han frowned slightly, looked up at the location of the city gate, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart: "Did that bastard named Chen not notify him? It shouldn't be! But it must not be Liu Hongji.
They were captured by the thieves who were attacking the city."
Liu Hongji was taken away?
This funny thought only flashed in Xiao Han's mind for a moment, and was automatically ignored by him.
Although the unlucky boy Liu Hongji had indeed been arrested several times before, look at those who arrested him: Xue Ju and Liu Wuzhou were all ruthless people from a famous town! In Lingnan, Xiao Han really didn’t think that
Who can catch him?
"Maybe they realized something was wrong and hid first." Xiao Han comforted himself in his heart, thinking that Liu Hongji on the mountain had discovered the thieves who were attacking the city, so he hid in advance.
"Master Hou, we're here."
Just when Xiao Han was still thinking about Liu Hongji and others outside the city, Feng Mansion was already in front of him.
Seeing that the gate of the mansion had been surrounded by heavy soldiers, Hu Guanshi was afraid that something would happen again, so he quickly jumped off his horse, stepped forward to hold Xiao Han's horse, and wanted to invite him to come down.
At this moment, the sky outside suddenly lit up strangely.
"Is it thundering?" Manager Hu looked up at the sky in surprise when he noticed the flash of light.
There were stars in the sky, the huge Milky Way stretched across the sky, and there was no sign of thunder or rain at all.
"Did I see it wrong?" This thought arose in his mind. Before Hu Guanshi could think of anything else, a thunderous sound came from the city gate.
"boom……"
"It really thundered!"
At this moment, Manager Hu was finally sure that he had read correctly!
However, before he could figure out why there was thunder in the clear sky, the horse's reins suddenly flew out of his hands, and then, the rapid sound of horse hoofbeats sounded from behind again.
"Hey? Xiao Hou? Xiao Hou! Where are you going? Quick! Why are you still standing there? Chase me!"
From behind, Guanshi Hu's angry voice came, but at this time, Xiao Han, Ren Qing and others had already rushed towards the city gate with red eyes!
Just now, that was the light of a firearm. Xiao Han couldn't be more sure of this! After all, he has been dealing with firearms for so many years. If he still can't tell the difference between a firearm explosion and lightning, then he, the new Fire Guard general, might as well just buy a piece of tofu.
, just hit him to death!
As for Ren Qing, he has also been in the firearms workshop for several years. He is even faster than Xiao Han in confirming the explosion of firearms!
After confirming that the bright light was emitted by a firearm, and then thinking about it, it seems that apart from the thief who still doesn't know whether it exists, the only ones who can own firearms in Lingnan are Liu Hongji, Xiaodong and others!
"Could it be that there are real thieves outside? Or is this thing done by Liu Hongji and the others? If it was done by Liu Hongji and the others, what kind of encounter would make them use firearms?
!”
In an instant, countless thoughts arose in Xiao Han's mind! This made his already chaotic head even more painful.
"No! You still have to go over and have a look! Only when you see it with your own eyes can you know what's going on!"
Enduring the pain, he turned his head to look at Ren Qing and others who were also riding wildly, and Xiao Han gained a little more strength on his feet.
The fast horse underneath him noticed that the owner on his back was exerting force, and he hissed loudly and galloped through the street like a wind and clouds, leaving only a large piece of dust behind him.
