At the beginning, I became a county magistrate with greed of 500 million. The empress asked me to be

Hundreds of Japanese pirates broke into the prefectural government office. This would have sounded incredible at any time.

But it really happened to Xia Yun.

When the Japanese pirates attacked all the way to the dungeon, Jiang Wenzhong quickly led his troops to complete the encirclement.

"Bang bang bang!"

Suddenly, a burst of intense gunfire broke out in the field.

In this battle, under Xia Yun's command, the troops directly used muskets.

The Japanese pirates holding samurai swords had never seen such a scene before.

In just over ten seconds, the number of Japanese pirates had decreased by more than thirty people.

The other Japanese pirates were so frightened that they rushed directly into the dungeon without any choice.

"Stop shooting!"

"Everyone stay where you are!"

When the Japanese pirates disappeared, Jiang Wen raised his right hand and immediately issued a ceasefire order.

But deep in his pupils, there was a sinister look.

After more than sixty Japanese pirates rushed into the dungeon, they soon discovered thirty-six Japanese pirate accomplices who were imprisoned in the dungeon.

"Open the prison door and let our brothers out!"

The leading Japanese pirate leader gave the order to release the prisoners.

However, a Japanese pirate next to him showed a look of worry on his face when he heard this.

"Sasuke-kun, the guy named Zuo told us to kill everyone in the dungeon before he came."

Many people around the Japanese pirate leader focused their attention on him.

"What about the surname Zuo?"

The pirate leader snorted coldly.

"Find those two officials and kill them, and release the rest of our brothers!"

The Japanese pirate leader issued orders again.

From the very beginning, he had no intention of abiding by the agreement. In fact, as long as he killed those two officials, his mission would be accomplished.

The Japanese pirates who received the order quickly released all 36 imprisoned Japanese pirates.

"Commander, there are no officials in the dungeon! They are all our own people!"

Not long after, his subordinates began to report.

"Never mind, retreat!"

Upon hearing this, the Japanese pirate leader immediately issued an order to retreat.

Obviously, their own lives are more important than fulfilling the agreement.

Soon, nearly a hundred Japanese pirates reappeared at the entrance of the dungeon.

"kill!"

All that was heard was a roar from the Japanese pirate leader who was hiding at the back.

Nearly a hundred Japanese pirates then filed out from the dungeon entrance.

same moment.

Jiang Wenzhong, who was hiding in the darkness, reappeared.

"Fire!"

Another order to fire was given.

The entire prefectural government office was once again filled with the sound of intensive gunfire.

During this period, the Japanese pirates who charged with knives fell in pools of blood in large numbers.

It seemed like a one-sided massacre.

the other side.

At the gate of the yamen, a dishevelled figure took advantage of the dim night to leave the prefectural yamen.

This person was no one else but Zhang Qingquan, who had defected to Xia Yun and was deliberately let go!

After leaving the prefectural government office.

Zhang Qingquan ran all the way towards the governor's office.

Three o'clock in the morning.

The sound of gunfire in the prefectural government office gradually subsided.

In the open space in front of the dungeon.

There were hundreds of corpses of Japanese pirates lying there.

In contrast, the troops led by Jiang Wenzhong suffered no casualties.

This is not some kind of miracle.

It is purely a one-sided crushing of hot weapons over cold weapons.

"Commander Jiang, the Lord said it's OK."

At this time, Chong Heihu came to Jiang Wenzhong and conveyed Xia Yun's order.

Hearing this, Jiang Wen nodded emphatically.

At this time, there were only a few Japanese pirates left, hiding in the darkness.

Jiang Wenzhong did not kill them all.

With the help of the moonlight, Jiang Wenzhong deliberately left a way out and withdrew the troops from the dungeon to the nearest courtyard wall.

The surviving Japanese pirate leader suddenly saw a way to survive in his despair, just like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw.

How can I care about anything else?

Like crazy, he led the remaining few people and charged towards the courtyard wall.

At the same time, Jiang Wenzhong in the darkness just watched the actions of those Japanese pirates coldly.

He did not let his men continue to attack.

Finally, after dozens of breaths, the Japanese pirates escaped from the prefectural government office.

"Follow them and make sure they leave Hangzhou City. If they want to die, send them on their way."

Jiang Wenzhong looked at the direction where the Japanese pirates disappeared with an indifferent expression.

"Yes."

Several soldiers responded to the order and quickly chased in the direction the Japanese pirates left.

Dawn.

Zhang Qingquan, who had been rushing all the way, finally returned to the governor's office.

When Zhang Qingquan entered the governor's back hall after a series of hurried knocks on the door.

Chen Hanzhi's face clearly revealed a look of confusion.

Didn’t Zuo Anning arrange for the Japanese pirates to break into the prefect’s dungeon?

How come Zhang Qingquan is still alive?

Could it be that Zuo Anning failed again?

All kinds of doubts arose in Chen Han's mind, and a hint of murderous intent quietly grew in the depths of his pupils.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qingquan's next move surprised him again.

"My Lord, I finally see you!"

"My Lord, Xia Yun is really a piece of shit!"

Only a wailing sound was heard from Zhang Qingquan, and he actually rolled and crawled to Chen Hanzhi's feet.

"My Lord, I almost died in the prefect's dungeon. Please help me!"

"That day, Xia Yun sent people to capture me. That beast tortured me in various ways every day..."

Zhang Qingquan became more and more excited as he spoke, and he even burst into tears on the spot. His expression was so sincere and heartfelt that it didn't seem fake at all.

When Chen Hanzhi saw this scene, the murderous intent in his eyes gradually dissipated, but the look of doubt remained the same.

"Tell me everything that happened during the days you were gone."

Chen Hanzhi pondered for a moment, and considering Zhang Qingquan's long-term support, he finally decided to give him a chance.

Hearing this, Zhang Qingquan immediately began to tell the speech he had prepared long ago from beginning to end.

About an incense stick of time passed.

With tears filled with grievance, Zhang Qingquan recounted his miserable experience in the prefectural dungeon.

Even the servant beside him felt a little sympathy for Zhang Qingquan after hearing this.

It’s so miserable!

Zhang Qingquan transferred almost everything that happened to Zhong Mingren to himself.

It really makes those who hear it sad and those who see it cry!

"So Zhong Mingren died at Xia Yun's hands, and you were the only one who escaped during the chaos?"

After listening to Zhang Qingquan's crying, Chen Hanzhi chose to believe it.

After all, Zhang Qingquan's description was too vivid, and it would be impossible to describe it unless one experienced it personally.

"Yes, sir. Tonight a group of Japanese pirates broke into the dungeon and kidnapped the imprisoned Japanese pirates. I escaped during the chaos."

Zhang Qingquan nodded rapidly.

During the past half hour of crying, he completely erased the fact that he had taken refuge with Xia Yun.

Even Chen Hanzhi found it difficult to detect anything unusual.

"Go down and rest first. I'll call you if anything happens."

Chen Hanzhi waved his hand.

There was no doubt in his opinion that Zuo Anning had messed up again.

Fortunately, Zhang Qingquan escaped and did not reveal any secrets about him.

This way, the matter was still under his control.

"Thank you, sir. Please do not let Xia Yun go. He is such a vicious person!"

Hearing this, Zhang Qingquan once again expressed his loyalty.
