"Sir, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but I don't have an accurate number. I don't know how many troops there are~" Long Er felt a little aggrieved. He really didn't know.
His own prince didn't tell him, so he didn't dare to ask.
"Long Muse should have left you enough command authority. Send two thousand more soldiers to the city wall and close the city gates. No one can open the city gates, not even me, unless I die." Xu Tianze emphasized his words, and then looked sharply at the dots of red light outside.
"One thousand troops will be deployed to the city to maintain order and prevent people from putting out fires. Anyone suspected of something will be apprehended immediately. Those who disobey will be killed."
"I will be responsible for anything that happens. Do you understand?" After Xu Tianze said this, he stared at Long Er, and his mighty power rose from his body.
"Young Master, the prince said that as long as he is not in the city, all matters in the city, big or small, should be handled by you." Long Er nodded, then led the group out.
In Long Er's eyes, he must listen to his prince's words. At the same time, Long Er has seen Xu Tianze's great achievements in Shangjing City, so he naturally knows what is most important at this time.
He did not feel the slightest bit uncomfortable being ordered around by someone who was not his master. It could be said that Long Er accepted it well.
Xu Tianze looked at the deep City Lord's Mansion and felt a little sad. He was hesitant for a moment. Perhaps others didn't understand and just thought that someone wanted to occupy this place while Long Musi was away.
But Xu Tianze knew very well that this was just a test from others, and it was also the moment when the final chaos began.
"Sir, let's go inside and wait." Xichen looked at Xu Tianze's thin clothes and advised.
Xu Tianze looked at the only white shirt on Xichen's body, then looked at Jiang Ti's shaking body, Yinliu's messy hair, and Xuesheng's red face. Finally, he glanced hesitantly at the yard behind him.
When he saw that the servants had already cleaned the room, he nodded and led them into the warm room.
Everyone sat in the warm room, and time flew by in silence until they heard the sound of chaotic footsteps outside the room. Everyone turned their eyes to the door, and when they saw that it was Long Er who came in, everyone relaxed their tense bodies.
"Young Master, the situation in the city has been brought under control. Those who deliberately caused trouble and those with suspicious behavior have all been taken to the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion." Long Er had an excited look on his face.
He originally thought that everyone was caught off guard at this time, and no one should be able to react and cause trouble at this time.
But when he led his men to maintain order and put out fires everywhere, he realized that the enemy would never give you a chance to breathe, which meant that they had been warned in advance.
That's why Long Er acted decisively when he encountered them, and was able to take control of the situation at the critical moment. Especially when he found black gunpowder on those people, the relief in Long Er's heart was tangible.
Xu Tianze nodded, then stood up and walked outside: "Jiang Ti stays here, Yin Liu takes Xue Sheng back to rest, Xichen and Long Er come with me."
Several people looked at each other and acted according to Xu Tianze's instructions. Jiang Ti looked at Xu Tianze's back, opened his mouth, and finally sat down dejectedly on the chair and said yes.
Seeing this, Xichen patted Jiang Ti's shoulder to comfort him, and waited until Jiang Ti gave him a forced smile before following him.
Long Er didn't have any thoughts and was the first to follow. In his opinion, his master was a very powerful person, but even such a powerful person like his master was praising Master Xu.
That Young Master Xu must be a very powerful person. With such a powerful person stationed in Zhoushan City, as long as he obeys his orders, he will be able to defend Zhoushan City until his master returns.
Xu Tianze simply didn't know what Long Er was thinking, otherwise he would have definitely opened Long Er's head to see what Long Er was thinking.
He himself didn't have the confidence that he could hold on to the end, but Long Er was quite confident in him.
"Sir, this is the master's study." Long Er saw that the road was becoming more and more familiar, and suddenly remembered something. When he saw that it was indeed a familiar building, he stuttered to remind him.
"Do you want me to tell you?" Xu Tianze looked at Long Er unhappily. How could he not know where this was?
If Ryuji hadn't been so unreliable, he wouldn't have come to this place he had been avoiding, but now he seemed smarter.
After Xu Tianze pushed open the door, he habitually turned his head to the left and pulled Xichen on his right to his left hand side. Then he saw an arrow with blue light flying past Xu Tianze's right ear.
"You're still as thoughtless as ever. You two wait for me outside for a while." Xu Tianze curled his lips in disdain, then turned around, gave the two of them a few instructions, and rushed in.
Then Long Er saw a scene he had never seen before. He saw Xu Tianze moving left and right in the small study room, strolling in the garden, making various small movements. At first glance, it looked like he was taking a walk in the garden.
However, the constant sounds of mechanisms being activated in the study, as well as the constant appearance of arrows, flying knives, webs, spikes, maces, hammers, smoke, etc., all indicate the degree of danger in this study.
Long Er's heart was trembling constantly, especially when he saw the place where he used to stand, which was not only covered with spikes but also with hidden arrows.
He had no idea that the place where his master often stayed was so dangerous, and he stayed in the study room carelessly every day. No wonder Long San always forbade him to touch anything. Even his master did not allow him to stay in the study room often.
In the past, he was a little resentful, thinking that his master treated him differently. Long San could stay in the study all the time, but he could not. Now he understands that if he had Long San's brain, his master would not kick him out of the study every time he finished his report.
It's purely a matter of luck. Without some ability, he really wouldn't be able to stay here for long.
After a cup of tea, Xu Tianze stretched himself, then walked to Long Musi's secret compartment and took out the things inside.
Xichen and Long Er looked at each other, swallowed their saliva, and then walked inside cautiously with stiff limbs.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect this small study to have so many mechanisms. Thank you so much for testing this for me."
A voice was heard, accompanied by a black shadow. The black shadow took the fan in front of Xu Tianze in an instant, and then stood not far away from Xu Tianze.
"When did monks become thieves?" Xu Tianze frowned and looked at a man in black not far away, whose bald head was particularly conspicuous.
