Chapter 294
Zixuan accompanied Mo Hongfan and the others to drink for a while. At this time, a person came in outside, who seemed to be a servant of the state government, "My lord, just now people from the government came to report that the prefect of Longzhou sent someone. I have urgent business to see the adults."

Zixuan stood up and bowed his hands towards Mo Hongfan, "General Mo, it's really a coincidence that I wanted to accompany everyone to drink more. The state government has something to do, Lin can only go back first, Lin will come back tomorrow , I must have a drink with you all." After saying that, Zixuan walked out.

In the big tent, there is a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who is very heroic.Seeing that Zixuan was about to leave, he got up to stop him.Another person next to him stretched out his hand to block this person.

Mo Hongfan turned his head and glanced at the person behind him, who nodded to him.Mo Hongfan quickly smiled and said, "Since Mr. Lin has business to do, then Mo won't force him to stay. When we have a chance in the future, we must have a drink together. We will not get drunk and return home."

"Definitely, definitely." Zixuan quickly agreed, and then led the people from the state government out of the big tent.When he came outside, he saw all the people he had brought gathered together, so he waved his hands and led them out of the camp and walked into the city.

The group of people was very fast and entered the city in a short time. "Close the city gate immediately. No one will open the city gate without my warrant." Zixuan ordered directly.

When the city guard heard this, he quickly replied, "Yes, don't worry, my lord. Without your order, even a bird, don't even think about coming in." This is not bragging. Zixuan's order is in Xizhou City It's better than imperial edicts.

Zixuan and his party quickly returned to the state office. As soon as they entered the meeting hall behind the state office, Zixuan asked, "Madam, did you find anything?" The prefect sent someone.

Jinghan nodded, "Well, I found out a little bit. Those people are not soldiers of our Daqi. They don't know how to use chopsticks. Although before the two armies, ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to use chopsticks. But human instinct will not Change, I deliberately brought a lot of chopsticks there today, and none of them are useful." Jing Han said, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, but her eyes were icy cold.

"Also, I overheard those people talking, not our language, but Beiyuan's language. These people may be Beiyuan's soldiers, this Mo Hongfan, surrendered to the enemy and treason, really damned." Jing Han couldn't suppress the anger in her heart.

"I also arrested a few people and brought them back. You can interrogate them and see if you can ask anything."

As soon as Jinghan said this, Zixuan was stunned on the spot, "What? You caught someone back? How did you catch him? In his barracks?" This guy is too incredible, right?

Jinghan smiled triumphantly, "The medicine I asked for from my aunt is something that will make people lose their minds when they smell it. Just now, those people went to grab it, so I took advantage of it to help those who were on guard. The chance of people giving food and drinks fascinated them. Then they obeyed my order and came back with me." Qian was born in the palace, what kind of things have you never seen?The palace is the most filthy and dirty, and there are many things that outsiders don't know.

Zixuan was speechless, Qian's medicine, coupled with Jinghan's ghostly eyes, probably ordinary people would be enlightened. "Okay, then bring it up and ask."

At this time, someone pushed four people in. These four people were all dressed in the uniforms of Daqi soldiers, basically the same as those who Zixuan brought to the camp, no wonder no one cared.What's more, everyone was busy grabbing delicious food at that time, who would pay attention to this?
These four people stood there, their eyes were straight and out of focus, and it seemed that they had lost their minds.

"Who are you and where are you from?" Zixuan asked.

These people began to speak, but what they spoke was the language of the Beiyuan Kingdom, not the language of Daqi.This time, their identities were directly exposed.Among the government offices, there were naturally people who were proficient in Beiyuan language, so they explained to Zixuan and the others while listening.

"They are the guards of Prince Zig of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. This time when Da Qi set fire to the Wild Wolf Valley, they were secretly released by Mo Hongfan and then went around to the back of the army. They wanted to attack before the army's division. Xizhou, wait for the army to come back, and then take the opportunity to clean up our Daqi army. This time, a total of 8 of them have escaped, and another [-] will be ambushed. When the time comes, they will attack us together. One was caught off guard." As the yamen servant said, his face changed drastically.

Hearing this, Jinghan and Zixuan fully understood.These soldiers were all from the Beiyuan Kingdom, perhaps there were a few of them who were Mo Hongfan's subordinates.I just don't know, when did Mo Hongfan join Bei Yuan?

Zixuan's face was also very ugly, he turned around and went to the study, took a pen and wrote two letters, and then came out and handed them to the people in the state government. "Send these two letters out of the city, one to Da Qi's army, and ask them to return to help quickly. The other to the capital. This Mo Hongfan's father, Marquis Zhenbei, holds the capital camp in his hand. There are more than [-] people. If he also turns against him, the emperor will be in danger." Zixuan's reaction was very quick, and he thought of the capital all at once.

Several people divided into two groups and hurried out of the city to report.Naturally, the North City Gate cannot be used, so he walked through the East City Gate.But when they got to the east gate, before they could say to let the gate open, they heard someone on the gate say, "Hurry up, someone is sneaking up. In the water, shoot arrows into the water."

Hearing this, they naturally knew that they could not go out for the time being, so some people immediately turned around and reported to the yamen.

As soon as Zixuan heard that there was a sneak attack, and it was Dongcheng, he immediately ordered to go down, and all the gates of the city were strictly guarded.Not only outside, but even in the city, idlers are not allowed to approach. "Ma'am, I'm afraid someone from outside the city knew something and attacked the city ahead of time. Let's go, accompany me to the city wall to have a look. This time, we may have to stick to the city again."

Jinghan accompanied Zixuan and led the people in the yamen to the North City Gate. Sure enough, there was also a surprise attack on the North City Gate.

"My lord, there is movement in the water, those bells rang just now." The city guards hurried up to report when they saw Zixuan.

"Okay, you've done a good job, and you must be on guard at all times. The 5 people outside the city are not our Daqi sergeants, but Beiyuan Tartars. They wanted to sneak into the city, but they didn't expect We have already set up traps underwater." Zixuan nodded, very satisfied with how cautious these city guards are.

Under the water surface of this moat, there are many traps.After the moat was dug, Zixuan led people to set up iron railings inside.These iron railings, along with the moat, completely circled Xizhou City.One of these railings will emerge from the water at regular intervals, and then a thick wire will be blocked on it, and a bell will be tied to the wire.As long as someone tries to pass through the iron railing, the bell on it will definitely be touched and it will make a sound.

Moreover, the riverbed near the iron railings is covered with all kinds of spikes.If you want to cross the iron railings, you have to step on the ground to use your strength.In this way, it is bound to be injured by those spikes.And even if someone can break the iron railing and pass through successfully, there is still a crossbow buried in the ground on the opposite side, as long as it is touched, ten thousand arrows will be fired.

For these institutions, Zixuan and Jinghan discussed countless times and tried many times, and they are indeed very useful.Now that these people want to sneak attack, the moat alone is enough for them to survive.

The people of Xizhou all know that the moat cannot be flooded.But what lies underneath, no one knows.All the people will warn the children at home not to go into the water, and there will be people patrolling along the moat during the day, just to prevent children from accidentally getting into the water.So in these years, no common people were injured because of the underwater mechanism.

At this time, outside Xizhou City, Mo Hongfan shouted angrily, "This Lin Zixuan, why is he so damaged? Even a moat, he can make so many tricks."

It turned out that after Zixuan and others left, the people in the big tent had a dispute.The person who wanted to stop Zixuan blamed Mo Hongfan for letting Zixuan go.If Zixuan is detained, then this Xizhou City will be at your fingertips.However, Mo Hongfan said that since Lin Zixuan was able to govern Xizhou so strictly, he certainly wouldn't let the entire city be broken without attack just because of a single governor.

It was the person at the back, that is, Prince Zige of Beiyuan, who spoke and agreed with Mo Hongfan's words, which stopped the quarrel in the big tent.It happened that someone outside reported that four patrolling soldiers had disappeared.Mo Hongfan immediately realized that something was wrong, so he led his troops out of the camp, trying to get people to swim across the moat secretly and try to attack the city.

But they didn't expect that this moat was a trap for eating people.Before the soldiers could reach the center, they were discovered by the people on the opposite city wall.Under the rain of arrows, no one survived.This time, Mo Hongfan was really fuming with anger.

"Hmph, you people from Daqi keep saying that you are a gentleman, is that the kind of gentleman you are? In my opinion, you are worse than us, at least we won't design such a vicious thing out." Someone next to him sarcastically .

At this moment, Zieg regretted letting Zixuan go, so he decided to attack the city immediately.They have 5 people this time, and there are not many guards in the city, so they might as well attack by force. "Mr. Mo, your cronies are in the city. If we launch an attack, can they open the city gate and let us in?" Zieg asked.

Mo Hongfan nodded, "It should be possible. These people were arranged after I came here in the first month. There are quite a few of them, and they should be about the same. I sent someone in yesterday to deliver the letter, and they know that I am outside the city."
