As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly fell silent.

After the Qingfeng Village started the uprising in Yangzhou, it immediately swept across the two states and six counties of Yangzhou with great momentum.

Many surrounding prefectures and counties felt like they were facing a formidable enemy, especially Zhenjiang Prefecture, which served as the barrier to Nanjing and was a battleground for military strategists.

The long-overdue wages of the soldiers of Zhenjiang Prefecture were also resolved at a discount in a short period of time.

But no one is a fool. The soldiers of Zhenjiang Prefecture know that it is not the officials or superiors in the court who have a change of heart.

But Qingfeng Village is coming, and those officials want them to fight for their lives.

After a while, someone spoke up in anger.

"So what if Qingfeng Village comes? We are just a bunch of soldiers who work for a living. It is the job of the 20,000 imperial guards from Nanjing to sacrifice their lives. What does it have to do with us?"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people immediately agreed.

"That's right! How much silver do we need to die for you?"

"Come to think of it, our wages are not even as high as those bandits in Qingfeng Village!"

"That's right. No matter what you think, if the people from Qingfeng Village break into the city, I will immediately lie on the ground and surrender! I don't care who laughs at me."

"Haha! Me too!"

"Hey, count me in..."

Listening to the laughter of the crowd, an older soldier cursed and laughed,

"Alright, alright, let's all stop talking. If some people hear it, won't they be in trouble?"

When everyone heard this, they realized that they were still on the city wall, and they kept silent.

But then the soldier continued,

"We are just small fry. Even if we want to surrender, we can't say it in public, right?"

Everyone burst into laughter, and the atmosphere relaxed.

One person sighed,

"Oh! I really don't know when the people from Qingfeng Paper will call me. Anyway, I don't want to be in such a state of fear every day."

Then someone agreed.

"Yes, we've been living in fear all day. The kings of Qingfeng Village, why don't you come over here sooner rather than later? Who knows, maybe you can get a few acres of land and stay home with your wives and children!"

"Hahahaha!"

……

Just when the ordinary soldiers defending the city were discussing in their spare time when Qingfeng Village would attack,...

Outside Zhenjiang City,

The two groups of people arrived at the east and west gates of Zhenjiang City almost at the same time.

Yujing Hall Master She Xiaoer's eyes flashed with light as he looked at the city gate hundreds of meters away and said in a deep voice,

"Brothers, after we've signaled our defeat, the traitors will unexpectedly open the city gates. We'll sneak into the city without firing a single shot. We'll head straight for the government office and the 20,000 imperial guards stationed there, forcing them to line up in front of the camp..."

Seeing that his own hall master was speechless, the first captain of Yujing Hall hurriedly said,

"They are lined up and shot!"

She Xiaoer nodded seriously and said,

"Yes, that's the word!"

"Captain, most of our ammunition for this trip is concentrated in your team. Once we enter the city, the imperial guards in the camp will depend on you!"

"After we take over Zhenjiang Prefecture, I will reward you with two wives!"

"Yes, I promise to complete the task!"

The captain of the first team accepted the order solemnly, then scratched his head and smiled innocently,

"But Hall Master, I don't want those two wives. Can you get me a 54 from the Peak Master?"

When She Xiaoer heard this, he laughed and scolded angrily,

"You bastard, are you still so picky? I haven't even reached May Fourth yet, how dare you think that?"

"Besides, is it important for Wu Si to have a wife? You can love Wu Si as if she were your wife, but can you still use Wu Si as your wife?"

"Hahaha!"

Everyone around laughed in a low voice.

This made the first captain blush.

After the joke, She Xiaoer waved his hand to interrupt everyone's laughter, and said,

"This hall master has received news that Ji Chi from Rishan Hall is getting a bit restless and might come to steal our credit at any time. Brothers, can we let the Eighth Hall give us the credit for capturing the important town of Zhenjiang Prefecture?"
