Chapter 83 The sun, moon, mountains and rivers are still there, don’t cry, everyone go slow

"Master Gao."

Sun Heng, a member of the Jinyiwei Hundred Households in Yanshan County, walked over quickly and said solemnly: "Sir, you must not open this city gate."

"These horse bandits are not good people. Once the city gate is opened, Yanshan County's military strength will not be able to withstand the impact of these horse bandits."

These horse bandits are definitely not like ordinary horse bandits. They are all tall and tall, and there are quite a few warriors among them.

Yanshan County's Jinyi Guards, together with county soldiers and government officials, total only about five hundred people at most. There is a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides.

If we hold on to the city and defend it, we can still hold on for a while.

Once the city gate is opened, the situation is still unclear.

"I know." Gao Cunshan nodded with tears in his eyes, reached out to wipe his tears, and choked up: "I know everything."

"But……"

"How innocent these people are!!"

Gao Cunshan punched the city wall hard, swallowing his tears and saying, "I am so ashamed of them!"

"I am not worthy to be their parent officer!"

Sun Heng sighed softly and looked at the old man in front of him, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The world is very turbid, and the officialdom is also filled with all kinds of darkness.

Some people are greedy and some are honest.

This county magistrate has been an official in Yanshan for thirty years. He has experienced political affairs, worked diligently and loved the people, and has always been loved by the people.

He had the opportunity to be promoted and transferred to Fucheng ten years ago, but tens of thousands of people in Yanshan tried to persuade him to stay, so he stayed.

And this stay lasted a full ten years!

He also lost the opportunity for promotion.

Outside the city wall, Yan Kui was sitting on horseback with a gloomy expression.

A horse bandit behind him said: "Fortress leader, this old guy hasn't opened the door. Let the brothers attack the city directly."

"No need!" Yan Kui sneered and waved his hand: "Bring those children up!"

Soon, more than a dozen seven or eight-year-old children were escorted forward by a group of horse bandits.

Seeing this scene, Gao Cunshan's pupils shrank sharply and said angrily: "Beast!"

"What on earth do you bunch of beasts want to do!"

"Haha!" Yan Kui laughed loudly and said quietly: "Nothing, I just want Magistrate Gao to see the show."

After saying that, he waved his hand gently.

"Pfft!"

One of the horse bandits raised his knife and dropped it, and a human head immediately fell to the ground.

The remaining children howled in fear.

"brute!"

"Beast!"

"You damn beasts!"

Gao Cunshan yelled angrily, and everyone around him was also furious.

Yan Kui laughed and said: "Master Gao, open the door!"

"As long as you surrender, the leader of this village promises that you will never kill anyone again!"

"Brothers only come here to seek wealth."

Gao Cunshan suppressed his anger and gasped rapidly.

Seeking wealth?

If he really wanted money, how could he have been besieged for several days? If he really wanted money, how could he have turned a blind eye to the money he gave.

"Sir, let me lead my brothers and rush down!"

"Sir, I am not afraid of death!"

The muscles on the centurion's face were trembling angrily, and there was suppressed anger in his chest.

Soldiers from surrounding counties are calling for battle!

Many of the people below are from the same village as them, including their relatives and elders.

But now they can only watch helplessly and let the horse bandits slaughter them.

"Qiang!"

Gao Cunshan suddenly pulled out the sword from his waist, his face full of murderous intent.

"Everyone, follow me and kill the enemy!"

Sun Heng's face changed slightly and he advised: "County Magistrate Gao, as soon as the city gate opens..."

Gao Cunshan raised his hand to interrupt and said solemnly: "Sun Baihu, our county is aware of your concerns, but these are our Yanshan people, how can this county not save you?"

"Do we really want to watch those innocent children die tragically?"

"Besides, there is not much food in the city. These horse bandits have been besieging us for several days. We can't hold on for long. After we leave the city, you can close the city gate for the time being and rely on the city wall to hold on."

"This county will lead people with Zhang Baihu to rescue the people, and at the same time fight a bloody road for you. Please ask Mr. Sun to send a master from the Jinyi Guard to report on your behalf and inform the city of rescue."

"After we rescue the people, we still need people from Sun Baihu to come and respond."

Sun Heng said in a deep voice: "Master Gao, why don't I and Zhang Baihu go there? You can just sit in and take command."

Gao Cunshan smiled freely and said loudly: "I am not a weak scholar!"

"I am an official of the Ming Dynasty. I am able to bring peace to the country with my pen and pen, and I am able to use my horse to bring peace to the world with my military skills!"

"Sun Baihu, if anything happens to us, the city will rely on you."

"I'm just dying, and it's not a pity to die. If I go, it will definitely boost morale and add some fighting strength."

Seeing the determination on Gao Cunshan's face, Sun Heng stopped trying to persuade him because he knew the old man.

He said solemnly: "Master Gao, I understand."

Inside the city, at the gate.

Gao Cunshan straightened his old armor, looked at the people in front of him, and said loudly: "Everyone, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!"

"Don't be afraid!"

Sounds like roaring mountains and tsunami came and went.

Everyone had an extremely strong murderous intent on their faces.

Gao Cunshan put on the helmet in his arms to cover his white hair, got on his horse and shouted: "Then follow the county to kill the enemy!"

"Creak..."

The city gate slowly opened.

Yan Kui, who was sitting on the horse, showed a proud smile.

but……

Soon, his expression darkened.

Gao Cunshan took the lead and led hundreds of county soldiers behind him to attack fiercely.

Yan Kui sneered, drew his sword and said with a ferocious smile: "Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Brothers, kill them!"

A group of horse bandits cheered excitedly and rushed forward.

The two sides fought instantly, with blood and flesh flying everywhere.

Gao Cunshan rode by on horseback, and five or six horse bandits were dismounted by him with one strike of his sword.

When he was young, he also practiced martial arts in order to be able to go to coastal areas to quell Japanese invaders.

But as fate would have it, he became the magistrate of this county.

The afterglow of the setting sun poured over the battlefield.

The blood soaked the ground, turning it red...

Perhaps Gao Cunshan's bravery infected the county soldiers, and they suddenly burst out with extremely strong combat power, killing the horse bandits and retreating steadily.

On the battlefield, more than ten riders suddenly left the battlefield and fled into the distance.

Yan Kui squinted his eyes, but turned a blind eye to those who escaped.

"Send the signal!"

The horse bandits on the side fired a signal flare.

A shrill sound pierced the sky.
