Chapter 021 Garrison

Until nightfall, Lin Zimo, who stood at the head of the city, did not wait to resist the army of the court. He understood that Zhang Chi's escape was never an impulsive act. After all, it was a great crime to exterminate his family. And such news will not come out of the air. Why hasn't the rebel army of the imperial court appeared on the outskirts of Pingnan County? I can't understand myself.

Since it was dark, Lin Zimo had to order his subordinates to fire torches at the top of the city. After all, it was not time to relax his vigilance. He can't be paralyzed, and the life and death of the whole city are tied to him. Lin Zimo looked out of the city for the Nth time with the help of the light of the torch. The dark scene was really hard to see, and his heart even guessed that the enemy had already lurked down and was waiting for their lax opportunity to attack again.

Chu Dalang, who held a torch in his left hand, came to Lin Zimo and said, "Why don't you take a break? Let me watch here."

Lin Zimo, who was not daring to be careless at all, stared at the distance, was alert to the movement outside the city, and refused: "No."

However, Chu Dalang's words reminded him instead. I realized that the big guys should be nervous for a long time. After all, they are all people who have never killed the enemy. He asked everyone to insist that there should not be much problem until the middle of the night, and he was afraid that they would not be able to stand it in the middle of the night. He knew that it was not that they were unwilling, but that they were limited in their physical strength and energy.

Lin Zimo was worried that the enemy would attack Pingnan County in the middle of the night, so he ordered half of the people to rest and the other half to stick to their posts. In the middle of the night, rotate again. He not only let his direct leaders carry out this, but also asked Chu Dalang to convey his instructions to Wang Pengfei. Even if you are stubborn on your side, it will be really troublesome if there is a problem on the other side of the city, so you can't let the "short board theory" appear.

When the night wind blew, Lin Zimo felt very cool and breathed pure cold air, which made his brain wake up a lot. Although he is still nervous, it is much better than the first. I believe more and more in life and death, and wealth is in heaven. He slowly moved his eyes from outside the city to the faces of everyone standing guard at the head of the city, and found that their expressions showed that they did not want the rebels to come.

Lin Zimo repeated a sentence every time he walked a distance: "Let's cheer up and don't relax. As long as we guard against it and don't give the enemy a chance, they won't dare to attack the city.

Whether his words are true or not, on the contrary, no one is willing to think about it carefully. After all, if things are not forced to this point, I'm afraid they are still unwilling to climb up to the top of the city to prepare to fight with the enemy. Lin Zimo encouraged them again in order not to let everyone release that gas.

The time passed minute by minute by. From the middle of the night to the middle of the night, and then to the bright morning, Lin Zimo, who had been sticking to the head of the city, was red with his eyes and still found no sign of rebels.

Lin Zimo really didn't understand and said to himself, "Is it possible that they are lost?"

If they don't come again, I'm afraid everyone will be relaxed, and he is most afraid of this. When the sun set again, the army against the court still did not appear in front of him. As for Wang Pengfei's situation, it is the same as his own side, and there is no difference at all.

The torch at the head of the city was once again lit by everyone, and Lin Zimo's mood became more and more relaxed. If the rebels really go outside the city, the people in the city will naturally be willing to support his measures. Nowadays, no trace of rebels has been found outside the city, and my behavior of not opening the city gate is not conducive to the daily life of the people.

After a long time, as soon as the news leaked, the people must point the finger at themselves. After all, their eyes are short-sighted. Lin Zimo is worried that the enemy will take advantage of the gap, and the people of the whole city can only become lambs to be slaughtered by others. He can't atone for his sins. In this regard, my heart is quite contradictory and in a valley.

All night. The sun rose east again, and when the sun was about noon, Lin Zimo, who was physically and mentally exhausted, saw a team coming from a distance. He looked over from afar. Although he didn't see a real one, he could see that the number of people in this team was not too large. Dare not be careless, he immediately ordered the relaxed people to cheer up and prepare to fight.

The people and tolerances with various weapons in their hands, their hearts beat violently, and their blood-filled eyes were staring at the team coming from a distance. This team was getting closer and closer, so that Lin Zimo, standing at the head of the city, saw the team playing the banner of the Ming Dynasty. He was not happy because of this. After all, he was worried that it was the disguise of the rebels and set a trap to win the gate of Pingnan County.

The team, led by a young general wearing white armor, carrying a long gun and riding a white horse, drove vastly to the city of Pingnan County and lined up.

The number of them was less than that, but Lin Zi was careless and shouted to the city, "What do you do?"

"Zhao Wenxuan, a hundred households in Xunzhou Prefecture, was ordered to come to Pingnan County to garrison." Zhao Wenxuan rode forward alone and said, "I have the official document of garrison. Please open the gate as soon as possible."

Lin Zimo looked at this hundred households and found that he was still young: "This is an extraordinary period, and I don't know you. Then please wait outside the city and let me send someone down the city to pick up the official documents you brought. I won't let you into the city until I verify it.

Zhao Wenxuan, who was riding a horse, replied cheerfully, "Okay."

So Lin Zimo found a person and used the rope to fall into the city to get his official documents, while the other side sent people back to the county government to find all the clerical officials. After all, he was always worried about this uninvited officer. After the official document sent by Lin Zimo was looked at by the relevant people, it was unanimously confirmed to be true.

Lin Zimo, who did not dispel all doubts, walked back and forth several times, stopped, and still couldn't believe it: "Is this official document true? Are you sure it's correct?

After the clerks looked at each other, they said with one voice, "Really, there is no problem."

"So can you use your life as a guarantee?" Lin Zimo stared at them without a smile.

One of the clerical officials immediately changed his words and said, "Then let me wait and take a closer look."

"Okay, take your time and don't worry." Lin Zimo didn't mean to urge them at all.

Zhao Wenxuan in the city found that no one had paid attention to him since the official document was handed in. Riding on the back of the horse, he was a little impatient. He led the reins and let the horse make several turns between the head and tail of his team.

"When are you going to let me wait?" Zhao Wenxuan raised his head and shouted in a venting voice.

Chu Dalang poked out a head and shouted to the city, "Master Baihu, just wait patiently. All the adults in the county government are reading your official document. You also know that this is an extraordinary period, so it needs to be treated with caution.

Zhao Wenxuan, who turned over and got off his horse, stood on the ground and shouted, "I will arrive first, and your county magistrate will arrive later."

No matter how he shouted, no one spoke to him at the top of the city. They only knew that the person who led everyone to defend the city was Lin Zimo, and the person who cared about the life and death of the whole city was also Lin Zimo. Although they have not been together for a long time, everyone has determined that Lin Zimo is their parents and officials. After all, the hard work of these two days is to let the people and public officials who guard the city see it in their eyes and remember it in their hearts. As for Zhang Chi, the county magistrate, they have not recognized him for a long time.

Lin Zimo, sitting in the tower, was drinking tea while waiting for the final result of the calligraphers. If this matter were kept ordinary, would they be so unconfident? Lin Zimo asked them to protect their lives, which was completely different. In case they really look blind for a while, or fake it to mess up with the truth... then their lives will really be taken away. This official document was seen by them, and no one dared to stand up and say the word 'really'.

An hour later, Zhang Chi rushed to the city of Pingnan County with his family again. Seeing that the city gate was closed, the official said with great prestige, "Open the city gate quickly. Your uncle, I'm back."

Although not everyone knows Zhang Chi, the servants in the public school still know his respect. Seeing that the signs were wrong, Chu Dalang hurried to the tower to find Lin Zimo. He who got the news left the tower with Chu Dalang and came to the top of the city to see what was going on. At this time, Zhang Chi stood under the city and jumped up and cursed. After all, he realized that his prestige had been swept away.

Lin Zimo, standing at the head of the city, smiled coldly and said, "Your Majesty, don't be angry. I'll order someone to open the door for you."

After saying this, he carefully observed the distance and found no abnormality before taking people to open the gate.

'Cree...' The gate was slowly opened.

Zhang Chi, sitting in the carriage, was full of displeasure. He led his family to enter Pingnan County first, and Zhao Wenxuan led his followers to follow closely. Lin Zimo, standing at the gate of the city, looked at Zhao Wenxuan at close range, with emotion in his heart. I know that he is definitely a hereditary official position, and if he dresses up as a scholar, he feels more like a scholar than himself.

Lin Zimo did not forget to count the soldiers brought by Zhao Wenxuan in his heart. As the name implies, Baihu is a general who can lead 100 people, and he has a total of 68 people. As for where did the 32 people go? Lin Zimo's first reaction was to be eaten by this boy. At this time, he really didn't expect that such a big Pingnan county could be guarded by such people.
