Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Wang Hongfu's words impressed the squad leader of the guards. Facing a powerful enemy, they remained fearless and calm. It turned out that Prince Ji's men were no ordinary people.

Thinking of this, the guard squad leader straightened his chest and tightened the knife in his hand.

"Don't listen to his alarmist words, they are fakes, and there is no golden token in my Ji Palace.

Capture them all! Take them back and let Shopkeeper Wang interrogate them personally. They actually dared to pretend to be someone from the Ji Palace. They are so bold.

Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy.

Manager Wang said that no matter if he lives or dies, he will be rewarded 100 strings of cash if he catches anyone."

Zhang Biao didn't want to waste time talking to these people. At this point, there was no turning back.

For the sake of his wife and children, he had no choice but to kill the person in front of him.

People die for money and birds die for food. They followed Wang Wencheng to do so many bad things just for wealth and glory.

Although some people believed what Wang Hongfu said, no one had a way out at this time.

Otherwise he would be killed on the spot by Zhang Biao.

"kill!"

"Rumble~~~~"

Just as Zhang Biao gave the order and everyone was about to capture Wang Hongfu and others, a loud roar came from behind the hill.

This place is close to the main road, so someone went to check it out immediately.

"Captain, there is a large caravan coming up the road, with at least a thousand people."

"A scale of a thousand people?"

Zhang Biao had a bad feeling. This was not the way to the Western Regions, so how could there be such a large caravan?

To the east of here is the grassland of the Tiele tribes.

The weather is cold at this time, and it may snow.

I haven't heard that they migrate in winter, and they migrate to the west. They have no pasture here.

Zhang Biao decided to go and see for himself.

After going around the hill and coming to the main road, they saw a large team almost approaching them.

In the middle was a carriage with a box on it, but no one knew what was inside.

On both sides of the carriage were herdsmen riding horses, wearing cotton clothes that seemed to be produced by Prince Ji's Mansion.

Nowadays, the cotton-padded clothes produced by Prince Ji’s Mansion are already circulating in the north, and many nobles are also engaged in the cotton-padded clothes business.

He took a quick look and saw that there were thousands of herdsmen on horseback and five to six hundred horse-drawn carriages.

What kind of cargo are they transporting? Is it so important?

Zhang Biao was a little puzzled.

"Tell them not to act rashly and not to cause misunderstandings."

Zhang Biao gave instructions to the people around him.

The northern herdsmen are born cavalrymen and a nation that grew up on horseback.

It would be disastrous if we mistook them for horse bandits. They are no match for more than a thousand people.

The team soon arrived in front of Zhang Biao, but did not stop. The whole team continued to move forward.

This made Zhang Biao feel much relieved.

He slowly retreated, preparing to kill Wang Hongfu and others after these people had gone far away.

He had never thought of catching him alive.

But just when he returned to the team, he saw the guard squad leader took out a bamboo tube.

Light it quickly and raise it to the sky.

Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard "whoosh~~~~boom~~~~"

White smoke came out of the bamboo tube, and a loud bang was heard in the sky.

When the captain of the guard heard the faint report from the other side, he only heard at least a thousand people, so he concluded that it must be reinforcements.

So he took out the flare and fired it without hesitation.

Only squad leaders and above are equipped with flares for emergency use and are standard equipment for the guards in Prince Ji's mansion.

Everyone looked up to the sky at the same time. They had never seen anything like this before.

Before anyone knew what was going on, they heard the noise of horse hooves from behind.

When Zhang Biao reacted, he found that the cavalry from the caravan that had just passed by had surrounded them.

At this moment, a very strange formation was formed. In the innermost were Wang Hongfu and his group of about ten people, surrounded by Zhang Biao's group of two or three hundred people in the middle.

The largest group of prairie knights was surrounded by thousands of people.

These prairie knights were holding their representative scimitars in their hands and were looking at them eagerly.

"What...what's going on?"

Zhang Biao was stunned, and everyone else was also confused.

The atmosphere at the scene was very tense, and a war might break out at the slightest disturbance.

The men Zhang Biao brought with him stared at each other, and no one dared to speak.

Everyone was extremely nervous and couldn't help but tighten their weapons.

"Who are you? We are the guards of Prince Ji's Mansion here. We have no ill will towards you."

Zhang Biao pushed through the crowd and came to the front, shouting to the more than a thousand people.

He had to make his attitude clear first and also reveal his identity. He hoped to use the name of the Prince Ji's Mansion to intimidate these people.

"Oh? Are you the guards of Prince Ji's Mansion? Let me see."

At this time, a teasing voice was heard, and a path was separated from the middle of the grassland cavalry. A general wearing silver armor riding a white horse slowly walked out.

This person was not wearing a helmet, his long hair was flying in the wind, he had a childish face, and he was about fifteen or sixteen years old.

He held a silver lance in his hand, looking majestic.

He came to the front of the battle formation and looked at Zhang Biao opposite him with a look of disdain.

"Are you a guard of Prince Ji's Mansion? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"I am the guard of Prince Ji's Palace in Xizhou. I am here to protect the workshop of the palace. It is normal that the general does not know me."

Zhang Biao explained.

"Haha, it doesn't matter. Even if you are really a guard of Prince Ji's Mansion, I don't know you."

The young general chuckled.

Only then did Zhang Biao realize that the other party was playing a trick on him, and he couldn't help feeling angry.

However, the other side had more people and more power, so I could only endure it.

"May I ask why the general has trapped us? Is there any grudge between you and my Ji Wangfu?

Or do you want to be the enemy of my Ji Palace?

General, aren't you afraid of Prince Ji's revenge?"

Zhang Biao's expression remained calm. He believed that the other party must be a general, otherwise why would he mobilize more than a thousand cavalrymen.

"Nothing, I just came to pick someone up."

The young general said with a nonchalant look on his face.

"To pick someone up? To pick up who?"

Zhang Biao was stunned, but then he had a bad feeling.

“Of course it’s the people you besieged, aren’t you a guard of Prince Ji’s Mansion?

How come you don’t even recognize the people from your own Ji Palace?”

The young general finished speaking with a sneer on his face, but suddenly his smile faded and he raised his hand:

"Archers prepare."

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

Following his order, the cavalrymen around him drew their bows and arrows and aimed at Zhang Biao and his group.

"General, what do you mean?"

Zhang Biao immediately became a little flustered.

"Come here, go and fetch Manager Wang. Everyone, listen up. Anyone who resists will be shot dead."

After the young general finished giving the order, he looked at Zhang Biao and said:

“It’s nothing, I just said I’m here to pick someone up.

I advise you and your group not to act rashly, for swords have no eyes."
