At the Wuxian County Government, the Xiang family and the others were still waiting for news from outside the city. As long as they successfully rob and kill the county guard outside the city, they will immediately capture Wu County.

However, they all drank several pots of tea and went to the toilet no less than three times. They were still the same as usual inside and outside Wu County.

"County Lord, the prefect has not returned for a long time. Could it be that something happened on the road?"

Xiang Liang, who really couldn't wait any longer, could only try to lure the county magistrate out of the city and kill him first. This was a helpless choice.

After the county magistrate smiled meaningfully, he actually followed them out of the city.

"Good luck to the county. Are you leaving the city?"

Some people greeted their group warmly.

"Well, I stopped by to welcome the prefect back to the city."

The county magistrate responded to the greetings of the common people, and there were not many barriers of status between the two parties.

This situation was all due to the promotion of the New Deal. With the promotion of the New Deal and the popularization of education, the newly arrived officials at all levels in Daqin No longer superior, the people's fear of big shots is also weakening.

Watching all this, the Xiang family members sneered at this. They looked down on the county magistrate's actions, and even looked down on Da Qin's new policy.

"The people are not afraid of officials. After losing the restraint of superiority and inferiority, whenever something happens, these untouchables will immediately kill officials and rebel. The violent Qin Dynasty is digging its own grave."

Xiang Liang is happy to see such a situation happen, and he will not remind you stupidly, thinking only about how to use ordinary people to achieve the purpose of restoring the Xiang family.

He feels that Da Qin has helped them, and he is even more He has absolute confidence in Xiang Yu and the dead men of the Xiang family. Although he has confidence, he cannot guarantee that the ambush will be successful.

If the county guard accidentally fails to enter the ambush and returns to Wu County, it will bring disaster to the Xiang family. A devastating blow.

Killing a county magistrate is not enough to deter the Qin army stationed here. The return of the county magistrate combined with the elite Qin border army, the Xiang family is likely to be trapped and die in the county.

All their plans There is a premise, that is, the Xiang family can use thunderous means to capture Wu County as soon as possible.

The entire process here includes killing a group of officials in Kuaiji County, seizing the official seal of Da Qin, defrauding the warehouse, and possessing the border army's ordnance. The purpose of the baggage.

The beautiful vision met the challenge of reality. Everyone walked to the gate of the city, and still nothing abnormal happened. This made Xiang Liang fall into the entanglement of whether he needed to start in advance.

It seemed that he saw Xiang Liang's emergency. , the county magistrate patted his shoulder and chuckled:

"Haha, please relax your mind, Master Xiang. If something happens to the Xiang family, nothing will happen to the prefect."

The county magistrate's words sounded strange. Xiang Liang didn't react for a while, but Fan Zeng, who had been following him, changed his expression drastically.

After Fan Zeng quickly looked around, he quietly gestured to everyone in the Xiang family, Then he asked tentatively:

"What the county magistrate said is that with the invincible Qin army guarding him, nothing will happen to the prefect."

"I just don’t know when the prefect will come back. Why don’t I go back and wait for the magistrate’s summons without wasting the magistrate’s precious time."

While Fan Zeng was speaking, everyone in the Xiang family had changed their positions, and they were vaguely surrounded by the county magistrate and other Daqin officials. There were also many more people preparing to leave the city.

Although these people were dressed like ordinary people, they could not hide their fierceness. With such aura, even real common people would unconsciously stay away when they meet them. Upon seeing this, the soldiers of the Qin Army guarding the city immediately assumed an offensive posture, ready to rescue the county magistrate and kill the disobedient people like the Xiang family.

The atmosphere instantly became Nervous, the county magistrate waved his hand at this tense moment to let the Qin soldiers relax

"If Head Xiang wants to leave, he can do so at any time, but the direction of your departure must change."

The county magistrate's words baffled everyone. The only thing that is certain is that he had known about the Xiang family's plan for a long time and had been prepared, so that he could be so calm at this time of tension. Neither

Xiang Liang nor Fan Zeng could figure it out. The county magistrate had a lot of information about them, and he didn't know what Da Qin had prepared for them, so he didn't dare to make any move at this time.

"What does the county magistrate mean by this? Our Xiang family has always abided by the law and paid taxes in full every year. We don’t say we have merit, but we must have no fault."

In the end, Fan Zeng, on behalf of Xiang Liang, decided to postpone the action and continue to wait here for the news from Xiang Yu.

No matter whether Xiang Yu's ambush was successful or not, they would always get the news.

Success must be a good thing, and their plan was just too late. If these are implemented, the result will not change.

Even if it fails, it is not difficult to escape with Xiang Yu's personal force value. At that time, combined with the elites of the Xiang family inside and outside the city and other people who have been bribed, there is hope of breaking out of the encirclement.

If both sides If there is no real fight, then they still have room for maneuver. At worst, they will continue to lie dormant and look for opportunities.

Fan Zeng had a wonderful imagination, but the county magistrate broke his fantasy.

"Mr. Fan, you are a smart person, and smart people should not think about why the county said this."

The county magistrate took out a folded book from his arms and handed it to Fan Zeng.

This book is made of fine rice paper. Even now that paper has become popular, it is still a top-quality product.

What is more precious than the book material is the content inside , which is a general map of the world, as well as information about the countries and civilizations surrounding the Qin Dynasty.

The Xiongnu are only part of it in this book. Farther away, there are Roman civilization, Egyptian civilization, and another area in the The continent exists in its original state.

Every place accessible by land is recorded in this book. In addition to the content of civilization, it even has the general distribution of resources.

"This book is written by Mr. Zhuo Fan, whose name you must have heard."

As soon as Zhuo Fan's name appeared, the pupils of everyone in the Xiang family shrank suddenly.

They had heard of this name more than once, and they knew that the changes in Daqin today were all due to the appearance of this man. It was also because of Zhuo Fan that let It is becoming increasingly difficult for the survivors of the Six Kingdoms to realize their dream of restoring their country.

The survivors of the Six Kingdoms long for Zhuofan to be born, but none of them have ever seen Zhuofan.

"County Lord, does this Immortal Zhuo Fan, who only appears in the Xianyang Hall every time and has the power to reach heaven, really exist?"

Looking at the detailed book in his hand, stroking the paper with a completely different texture from bamboo slips and sheepskin, although Fan Zeng already believed in Zhuo Fan's existence, he still asked.

"The existence of Mr. Zhuo Fan is not a secret in Daqin, and neither Your Majesty nor Mr. Zhuo Fan ever thought of hiding this. The county magistrate chuckled and asked:

"If Mr. Xiang never existed, how do you explain the changes that took more than a year to span a hundred years in Da Qin? As for whether Mr. is an immortal or not, it depends on how you understand it."

"I know you still have illusions, so Your Majesty has left a way for you. This is what Your Majesty asked the county to bring to you."

Having said this, Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng no longer thought that the Wu County magistrate was deceiving them.

They simply asked the elite Xiang family dead soldiers to gather around them and asked with a gloomy face:

"What words?"
