"this……"
Ma Jianming and Tang Siru couldn't help but hesitate when they heard this, not knowing whether they should tell the truth.
To be honest, the centurions and the general and small flag officers are all in the brothels, whether it sounds good or not is not the point.
Saying this also makes it seem like they are spreading rumors in front of their superiors.
But if they don't speak or lie, everyone will feel depressed.
Why?
Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard the guards and servants outside the gate shouting, "Captain, you are not allowed to trespass. Let me go in and report!"
Ma Jianming, Tang Siru and others' expressions changed slightly. When they heard the voice, they knew that Ding Run and others had come.
Ding Run and others were not surprised that they were able to get the news, after all, his people were present at the time.
But they were able to find it so quickly, which made them feel a little embarrassed.
After all, if Ding Run can come here, it also means that others may come here as well.
This is absolutely a dereliction of duty on their part.
But it was too late to think about it now.
Because at the same time, Ding Run sneered outside, "What are you reporting? I'm the captain of the Hundred Households Office in Dahuang City. When did I have to report to Ma Jianming when I saw him?"
Get out of here!
Then there was a sound of collision and a burst of screams and commotion, and in between there was the sound of swords being unsheathed.
Then a sinister sneer was heard, "Hey, Captain Ding, are you Jinyiwei going to split up? How dare someone draw a sword in front of you!"
"Haha...are you looking for death?!"
Ding Run's angry and gloomy laughter echoed, and then he heard the man shouting, "Ma Jianming, get out of here, or don't blame me for disregarding our brotherhood and going on a killing spree!"
During this period, someone seemed to be whispering to persuade him, but was scolded by Ding Run.
At the same time, Ma Jianming and Tang Siru were sweating, and both of them were shocked and worried.
He subconsciously looked up at Cao Xiong and said, "Lord Governor, Captain Ding and the others must know you are here. They still dare to act like this. I'm afraid they are not trustworthy.
Please leave from the back and I will help you block the enemy.
They haven't seen the Lord Governor yet, so as long as they leave this place, they will be safe!"
Although Cao Xiong didn't know what was going on, he knew that he was careless.
How could I not know that those people outside had bad intentions?
At this moment, he didn't bother to ask the reason, but just asked in a cold voice: "Are you sure the back door is safe?
They know the front door, but don’t they know the back door?”
"this……"
Ma Jianming gritted his teeth slightly, then said, "It's okay. I'll hold the enemy back here, and General Tang will lead the troops to clear the way for the commander. Charge out!"
Cao Xiong pondered for a moment after hearing this, then nodded resolutely without saying anything more.
Because this is indeed the best way right now.
To say otherwise is just empty talk.
He just glanced at the subordinates he had just met, a small trial centurion, who was surrounded by General Tang and others, then turned and walked to the back.
After taking two steps, he turned back and said, "If I can stay alive, I will stay alive. Only by staying alive can I serve His Majesty!"
Then he said to a flag bearer, "Give us a weapon."
“Here!”
The little flag thought that he would also have to kill the enemy himself, so he didn't think much about it.
However, they didn't know that Cao Xiong had already made up his mind to die at this moment, because he was not sure how many enemies were outside and whether only the people from the Hundred Households Squad came.
At the same time, outside the door, a group of small flag generals were also shocked.
They didn't expect that the situation would suddenly become tense even though they had agreed to come and check it out.
But when Ding Run killed a foreign servant with a single blow, they knew they had been tricked.
Ding Run had no intention of coming over to take a look at anything. This move was meant to make the matter a fait accompli.
And they couldn't turn back.
Although he secretly hated Ding Run, he had no choice but to follow him until the end.
Ding Run just grinned at this and said, "You don't have to look at me like that. That Governor Cao is so cautious, it's obvious that he is guilty. Maybe he came alone?
Even if there are any reinforcements, there is no need to be afraid. I have already sent someone to report to Lang Hu and Lang Qianhu!
As for Ma Jianming, I've disliked him for a long time.
You have no other options now. The only option is to follow me, cut off Governor Cao's head, and then become a loyal minister to the King of Qi."
After saying that, he took the lead and kicked open the closed door.
When he entered the room, he did not see Governor Cao. There was only Ma Jianming standing there with a spear in his hand, and several soldiers standing beside him.
But each of these soldiers held a bow and crossbow in their hands and was ready to fire.
Ding Run was shocked when he saw this, but before he could react, Ma Jianming had already waved his hand and fell.
Suddenly, seven or eight arrows flew towards him.
Ding Run and the two soldiers who were rushing in the front with him quickly waved their weapons to block.
But Ding Run was still hit in the shoulder by an arrow. He screamed "Ouch" and fell backwards down the stairs.
"Hundred households!"
Everyone was shocked when they saw this and rushed over to check.
The man suddenly sat up and shouted, "Don't let them reload, charge in!"
Everyone finally reacted and turned around to rush inside again.
But during this gap, the people inside had already reloaded another wave of arrows.
Everyone rushed in again, and arrows were fired again.
However, this time everyone was prepared and raised their shields, so this wave of arrows was ineffective.
Only one person was shot in the calf and fell to the ground wailing.
But the people inside have already lost the opportunity to reload.
They had no choice but to abandon their bows and crossbows and fight hand-to-hand with the people rushing in from outside.
Ma Jianming sighed inwardly, "What a shame, I couldn't shoot Ding Run to death!"
The reason why he didn't order his men to block the door and then fight using the buildings as a barrier was that he wanted to catch Ding Run off guard and kill him with one arrow.
Unfortunately, it didn't succeed.
However, seeing that the people outside had already rushed in, he didn't have time to think. He shook the spear in his hand and shouted, "My men, we are all minions of the emperor. Today is the day to fight for him!"
As he spoke, he fired a shot, knocking over a guard who was rushing forward a little too fast.
The other few who stayed on the scene to fight the enemy with him were originally his confidants. They didn't say anything when they heard what he said. They all pursed their lips and gritted their teeth, and advanced with him instead of retreating.
Their desperate efforts caught the people rushing in from outside off guard.
The first wave of attacks was actually beaten back out of the door.
Ding Run and a group of flag officers were shocked and angry when they saw this.
"Assholes, a bunch of assholes!"
Ding Run cursed, "Ma Jianming, you bastard, how dare you draw your knife on me? You're committing treason. Who gave you the guts?"
Then he shouted to the crowd, "Get the archers, shoot them all!"
While he was cursing, a small flag officer came over to report, "Captain, that Governor Cao ran away from behind."
Ding Run's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and then he said sullenly, "He can't escape. Liu Ping has already led people to intercept him from behind!"
