Seeing the personal guards approaching, Zheng Zha directly drew out the steel sword from his waist. The team leaders and village commanders around him also drew out their own steel swords. When they came here, they did not expect to meet each other in battle. Now it's better
They immediately resorted to the knife, leaving no room for them to react. Now they can only fight and retreat.
"Don't let him go, capture him."
When Zheng Zha wanted to run away, Zhou Pu gave an order, and the guards immediately attacked from all sides, surrounding Zheng Zha.
"Zheng Zha, if you are wise enough to abandon your weapons and surrender now, I can forget the past."
Zhou Pu glanced at Zheng Zha who was surrounded and smiled directly at him.
"It's your fault, I admit defeat."
Looking at Zhou Pu, Zheng Zha also had nothing to say. The situation was stronger than the others, so he had to bow his head.
"Tied."
The sword and gun fell to the ground, and Zhou Pu directly ordered Zheng Zha to be tied up.
"Just do it like this. The other captains won't give them a chance to react and just take it down."
Zhou Pu directly gave the order to the personal guards around him, and these personal guards also directly clasped their fists, and then dispersed, acted on their own, and rushed towards the predetermined place.
Not long after, except for one of the captains who went out to drink and was not caught, the rest were all captured, one by one.
"What to do with the remaining Ding Quan?"
The captain of the guard glanced at Zhou Pu and directly asked the remaining captain how to deal with it.
"In this case, you should go back and give your orders to the Lord now. Ding Quan is a dissolute man and has not married a nobleman from Yizhou. Besides, he can't cause any trouble by himself."
He glanced at the chief of guard, but Zhou Pu didn't care. He knew Ding Quan best. He is a good woman but not a good wife.
So even if the nobles lied to each other this time, even though the matchmakers changed several times, he still couldn't match him, because Ding Quan felt that he couldn't give up the entire forest for a tree.
"Okay, I'll go and get back to you, sir."
When the chief of guard heard Zhou Pu's words, he nodded directly and went back to return his life to Cheng Yu.
"All done?"
Seeing the chief of guards return, Cheng Yu knew that things should be done.
"Well, except for Ding Quan, all the remaining captains and captains of the school were detained, and the personal guards were also sent to the city defense army to temporarily hold these positions."
The captain of the bodyguard directly explained all the progress of the mission.
"Okay, tell the guards not to alert others. I want to see what drama these nobles are planning to sing for me tonight."
Hearing that he had won them all, Cheng Yu was very excited even though he had already guessed it.
"Sir, we have all gone down to the city defense army. If those people really have any ideas, you will be in danger here. How about you bring some people back now?"
The captain of the guard glanced at Cheng Yu. Although the city defense army was secure, there was still a problem here. The defense was weak. If he were Zhang Song, he would definitely send someone to capture Cheng Yu first.
"Well, it is indeed necessary to bring back some troops, but it is better not to mobilize the city defense troops. Immediately notify Wu Yi to take a thousand troops under his command to garrison the government office."
Cheng Yu doesn't want to mobilize the city defense army now. These people have just arrived in the city defense army. They need time to organize and suppress their dissatisfaction. The most suitable person for this is Wu Yi.
Wu Yi is good at running the army. Among all the city defense troops, his subordinates are the most stable and have the fewest marriages with Yizhou nobles, so it is most appropriate to transfer him here now.
"Wu Yi, the military advisor is still smart, I'll go right away."
Hearing that Cheng Yu asked Wu Yi to bring troops over, the guard commander also nodded. Now is the time to call Wu Yi over.
"Okay, I know."
Looking at the captain of the guard who came to deliver the message, Wu Yi nodded directly to him.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, General."
The captain of the guard cupped his fists at Wu Yi and then walked away.
"Brother, do you really want to protect Cheng Yu?"
Wu Lan glanced at Wu Yi, and a light flashed in his eyes.
"What do you think?"
Wu Yi looked at Wu Lan with great interest.
"Brother, if this family wants to launch an attack, they will definitely take Huanglong directly. The first thing they have to capture is Cheng Yu's Lingya Mansion. He wants us to take people to garrison the Lingya Mansion now. He doesn't want us to fight with these Yizhou nobles.
Do private soldiers fight hard against each other?
Did he notice something and want to take the opportunity to consume our strength?"
Wu Lan glanced at Wu Yi and directly expressed her thoughts.
"You have also heard what happened in the city defense army. In a short time, all the team leaders, the commander of the camp, and the guards were replaced. Even a few school captains were taken down. His current bodyguards are all trying to comfort him.
City defense army, why don't you move us?
Because our subordinates have the most distant relationship with the Yizhou gentry, so he is letting us go now not only because he does not see that we have any different intentions, but also because he trusts us so much."
Regarding Wu Lan's words, Wu Yi shook his head slightly and expressed his opinion directly.
"Brother, although what you said makes sense, the current situation is that this time we are going to have a head-on confrontation with the Yizhou clan. Our losses will definitely be considerable by then. What should we do?"
Although Wu Yi is right, Wu Lan is still worried. After all, taking people to Lingya Mansion now means fighting against the Yizhou gentry. If others fight hard, he must fight hard, otherwise he may not be able to stop him.
live.
"It's okay. As long as we can capture the Yizhou nobles this time, our losses can always be made up for."
But Wu Yi didn't care at all. The loss was a loss. As long as he could help Cheng Yu win over the Yizhou nobles, he would have nothing to fear by recruiting troops at will.
"I understand, let's organize the troops."
After listening to Wu Yi's words, Wu Lan had nothing to hesitate. As long as Cheng Yu could be reassured, their old friends who did not dare to bring him would be able to join their army as a matter of course.
"Well, go ahead and tell the brothers that as long as they can help Cheng Yu defend this time, I'll treat them to a big drink."
"promise."
Wu Yi led a thousand city defense troops directly to the Lingya Mansion, sharpening his swords and shields, waiting for the enemy to come.
Time passed little by little, and it was almost midnight. Zhang Song opened his eyes directly.
"How many days has it been?"
He opened his mouth and asked questions outside the door.
"Sir, it's almost midnight."
The Zhang family's housekeeper took a look at the sky outside and reported directly to Zhang Song.
"Tell everyone to prepare for action."
Hearing that it was almost midnight, Zhang Song directly ordered to prepare for action.
"promise."
For a time, several aristocratic families were all prepared to prepare.
"Boom,"
"Dong dong."
"Rush, go to your office."
Hearing the watchman's call, Zhang Song, Huang Quan, and Li Bing, together with their die-hard allies from the aristocratic families, launched a mighty force of four to five thousand private soldiers out of their respective mansions and headed towards where Cheng Yu was.
The magistrate rushed over,
Qiao Xu worked even harder and directly exposed his secret passage. The family's private soldiers left the mansion through the secret passage and met with the hidden soldiers outside. There were six to seven hundred people in total, and they also ran towards the imperial office.
"Sir, we found that unknown troops were rushing towards the imperial office. There are about five to six thousand people in total. What should we do?"
Although he had guessed that the enemy might launch an attack tonight, and he had made corresponding arrangements, the number of five or six thousand people who came this time was indeed a bit more than he expected.
"Five to six thousand people?
These people are about to sink their boats, is General Zhenwu confident enough to stop them?"
Hearing that the enemy came out with five or six thousand people, Cheng Yu was a little stunned, but thinking about it, it was just right. Since he was about to fall out, he would use all his strength. If he is still hiding it now, he would really
A bit crazy.
"I can only say that I will try my best. After all, I only have a thousand people under my command, but the enemy is five times our number. I suggest you go to the military camp. If they attack with fire regardless, it will be very troublesome."
Hearing Cheng Yu ask himself, Wu Yi felt unsure. He only had a thousand people, but there were five or six thousand people on the opposite side. It was okay to let him run away, but it was really difficult to let him withstand it.
"It's okay. As long as you can hold on for at least half an hour, the thieves will be wiped out."
