Wei Jianxiong glanced at the pile of wood next to the city gate, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
"Master Jiang really put a lot of effort into it, but it's a pity that it was used in the wrong place."
By blocking the South City Gate, Qing is waiting for the rebels to occupy Guangfeng City.
Tian Xiao ignored Wei Jianxiong's words completely.
He was so hungry that his eyes were full of stars. He just wanted to rush to the prefectural government office and have a good meal first.
"drive!"
Tian Xiao pinched the horse's belly, looked at the empty streets of Guangfeng City, and frowned in confusion.
What's going on? He has been gone for half an hour, why hasn't Jiang Hai come yet?
If he walked for another quarter of an hour, he would reach the prefectural government office.
Could it be that Gou Jianghai is waiting for him at the gate of the prefectural yamen?
Just when Tian Xiao was wondering, a burst of hurried horse hooves sounded from the front.
Wei Jianxiong raised his eyebrows, "Oh, Lord Jiang brought quite a few people to greet us."
Judging from the noise, there must be hundreds of horses galloping.
Judging from the hurried sound of horse hooves, Jiang Hai seemed quite anxious.
"Whether or not to welcome them is a minor matter. Providing food and drink for the soldiers is the most important thing."
Tian Xiao's expression paused slightly, then he curled his lips in a cold smile.
He knew he was getting anxious at this time, but he pretended to be anxious. He wanted to question Jiang Hai why he had not made arrangements to welcome the army in advance.
It was the first time for him to lead such a large army, and Jiang Hai didn't even make proper arrangements for him, which really made him angry.
Wei Jianxiong twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, lowered his eyelids, and resisted the urge to roll his eyes.
He agreed with a smile,
"Yes, the soldiers are hungry all the way. I think Lord Jiang should have prepared food and drink for them long ago."
When the soldiers following the two heard this, their tired and weak bodies were suddenly filled with strength again.
As the soldiers heard the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer, they became more and more excited.
Thinking that I would be able to drink cool water soon, my steps unconsciously became bigger.
Tian Xiao had a sneer on his face as he looked at the street indifferently, listening to the sound of horse hooves getting closer and closer.
But in a moment, he saw a group of people and horses running towards him madly from the corner of the street.
As soon as Magistrate Tian came out of the corner and passed his horse, he saw a large group of people and horses walking slowly on the street.
The leader wearing black armor is none other than his good nephew.
Magistrate Tian excitedly shouted at the top of his lungs,
"Nephew Tian Xiao, General Tian!!"
When Tian Xiao heard the shout from Prefect Tian, the sneer on his lips froze instantly and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
What is his current status? Can he call him nephew in public?
Tian Xiao frowned slightly, gently pinched the horse's belly, looked at the madly galloping Tian Zhifu and went to meet him.
"Master Tian."
When Prefect Tian heard Tian Xiao call him "Sir Tian", the smile on his face froze instantly.
Seeing his nephew's slightly dissatisfied eyes, he pursed his dry lips, pulled the reins, walked slowly to Tian Xiao, and immediately put on a flattering smile on his face.
"Congratulations, General Tian, you have worked hard along the way."
Tian Xiao nodded his chin slightly, his cold eyes sliding across the faces of the people on horseback.
"Why didn't Lord Jiang come?"
Bastard, you keep giving him face, don't you?!
Does Jiang Hai still think he is a palace guard?
He is now a general leading an army of 100,000.
When Jiang Hai was mentioned, Tian Zhifu's mind instantly returned to normal, and he said anxiously,
"Lord Jiang has gone into hiding. I was worried about you being left without anyone to greet you, so I risked my life to come and greet you and give you the news."
"Huh!" Tian Xiao looked at Prefect Tian with a puzzled look on his face. "Hiding? What happened in Guangfeng City?"
"Oh!" When Magistrate Tian thought of the scene of being chased just now, his heartbeat could not help but speed up.
"The Xiao family's rebels entered the city, and Jiang Hai, that coward, hid himself early and refused to come out no matter what."
"You don't know how dangerous it is for me to run out and tell you the news."
"Just now, the rebels were chasing me and almost killed me..."
"What!?" Tian Xiao widened his eyes in shock and looked at Prefect Tian in surprise.
"When did the rebels enter the city?"
Damn it, no wonder the South Gate was blocked, was that the rebels’ doing?
Those yamen runners at the city gate - could it be that they are also captured by the rebels?
Oh no!
This---is he a sheep walking into the tiger's mouth?
They had been walking for so long, and the 100,000-strong army had already squeezed into Guangfeng City. If they were ambushed, it would be disastrous.
Tian Xiao hurriedly braked his horse and waved his hand to stop the large army.
He looked around in panic, afraid that he had been surrounded by the rebels.
