Chapter 143 Taking Down the Town Mayor's Mansion (Climax)
"Could it be that guy Xue Baifeng?!"
Su Mingtian couldn't help but think.
After all, with the incident at the Feiyun City mine, most of the garrison in Shuiyun Town had been dispatched.
These days, only Xue Baifeng has the ability to create such a commotion...
The thought had barely crossed his mind when a guard rushed in, his face filled with horror.
"Mayor, mayor, something terrible has happened..."
"Someone is rebelling!"
Snapped!
Su Mingtian immediately dropped the jade pendant he had been rubbing in his hand to the ground. His eyes widened as he stared at the newcomer in disbelief: "What did you say?!"
The guard said, "Mayor, the town gate has been breached, and hundreds of people have rushed in. They claim to be the Yanhuang Army, shouting that they want to rise up for the people and wipe out the Marquis's troops, and then they charged in..."
Su Mingtian's mind nearly exploded. What was going on?!
For eight hundred years, the Great Xia Dynasty has been established, and the Qingzhou area has always been a heavily guarded region, with even towns having garrisons both inside and outside the city...
In this situation, someone actually rebelled?!
Su Mingtian's first reaction was disbelief, but the booming sounds of soldiers and horses in his ears told him that it was all real!
Su Mingtian shouted angrily, "Where is Xue Baifeng?!"
"More than 60% of the troops stationed in and outside Shuiyun Town have already gone to Feiyun Town to guard against the unusual activity at the mine. Now that Shuiyun Town has such a rebellious rebel army, it's time to use Xue Baifeng..."
"Why isn't he coming out yet?!"
The guard shook his head, indicating with fear that he didn't know either.
Although Xue Baifeng commands the personal army of the Marquis of Sinan, given the current situation with rebel forces, Xue Baifeng should indeed take action.
However, the Yanhuang army had already ridden across the long street, but Xue Baifeng remained unmoved...
Su Mingtian's eyes grew even colder, and he cursed angrily, "Those dogs from the Xue family are truly unreliable!"
"Besides extorting money from the people and squandering their wealth through the Marquis's rule, what else can they do?!"
Yes, the reason why the Xue family has been helping Marquis Su Changsheng of Sinan is not only because they have a wife in the Marquis's mansion.
Furthermore, Su Changsheng's daily tributes to the Xue family were quite substantial.
"Summon all the guards in the town hall. I, the town mayor, will go and see who dares to rebel with just a few hundred people?!"
"Hmph, at most they're just a bunch of old, weak, sick, and disabled... a few hundred people, my two hundred town magistrate's personal guards will wipe them out in one fell swoop!"
Su Mingtian said, "When the time comes, I must report to the Marquis that Xue Baifeng has gone too far..."
As he said this, he led his men to prepare to leave.
Boom!
At that moment, the gate of the town mayor's mansion was smashed open!
A figure caught Su Mingtian's eye; it was Zhang Daqiang, riding a warhorse!
Zhang Daqiang shouted, "You corrupt official! You corrupt official who is an accomplice to evil!"
"Su Changsheng's actions are immoral and wicked, and you are partly guilty of it too. You shall die!"
Whoosh!
He drew his bow and shot an arrow, and black lightning instantly surged forth, tearing through the air!
Su Mingtian's pupils shrank sharply, but fortunately, the town mayor's guards successfully saved him!
However, Zhang Daqiang's men had now also come into his sights...
Su Mingtian's expression instantly turned extremely ugly: "Armor, bows and arrows... you're not ordinary people, who exactly are you?!"
He could tell at a glance that these people were not ordinary people rebelling; they had clearly been plotting this all along!
Otherwise, how could there be such exquisite armor, and everyone carrying a strange object that could be identified as a bow and arrow...?
Zhang Daqiang grinned, "Who is it? The one who wants to kill you!"
After saying that, he drew his bow and shot an arrow again!
Su Mingtian angrily said, "How dare you! You really think you can rebel just because you brought a few hundred men... Even if I gave you ten times the number of troops, you still wouldn't succeed!"
"Protect me, take me to the military camp... Damn it, Xue Baifeng is unreliable, I'm going to lead the troops myself to annihilate the rebels!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two hundred guards of the town magistrate's mansion immediately assembled in an orderly and organized manner, wanting to protect Su Mingtian!
Zhang Daqiang frowned deeply. He hadn't expected Su Mingtian to be so formidable. Those two hundred town magistrate's guards were actually more elite than the two hundred who had surrounded the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce earlier...
Zhang Daqiang was the commander of the attack on the town mayor's mansion, but he only had a little over a hundred men under his command. The others had gone to the military camp to support Liu Daoyang.
Therefore, if the town mayor's personal guards in Shuiyun Town are so elite, he might not be able to suppress them quickly...
"A bunch of audacious bastards! Once I get to the military camp, I'll skin you alive and exterminate your entire clan!"
Su Mingtian roared angrily, cursing Xue Baifeng even more in his heart: Shuiyun Town is in such a state and you're not even offering any help?!
Even if you despise Su Changsheng, Xue Baifeng is still nominally Su Changsheng's subordinate...
You really enjoy watching plays that much?!
At that moment, another figure appeared behind him.
That figure, wielding a Tang sword, broke through the layers of people and slashed at Su Mingtian!
In a flash, Su Mingtian turned his head and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face: "Su Luo!"
That's right, Su Mingtian recognized Su Luo!
He was one of the few capable and insightful people around Su Changsheng, and he had met Su Luo once before, but even so, he never expected...
One day, Su Luo will kill himself!
"You, how could this be..." Su Mingtian felt the long knife in Su Luo's hand cutting off his head, and felt a sensation that was neither pain nor anything else. He felt as if the world was collapsing.
No matter how you look at it, Su Luo, an illegitimate child, could never have gone this far!
He was just an illegitimate child!
What... happened?!
Su Mingtian opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found his gaze constantly and uncontrollably shifting...
Finally, it was plunged into complete darkness!
Su Luo lifted his head up and looked at the crowd: "The mayor is dead, so surrender immediately!"
His voice was loud and clear, resounding in everyone's ears!
Zhang Daqiang reacted the fastest, shouting angrily, "Did you hear that?! Young Master has already taken the lead and charged into the crowd!"
"What are we waiting for?! Kill!"
He rode his warhorse straight into the town mayor's mansion, wielding a long sword, and killed the still somewhat dazed town mayor's guards one by one!
Anyone who blocks his path will not escape his blade!
In an instant, the battle resumed, and it became even more intense...
However, this time it was no longer a balanced battle like before. Instead, it was a complete crushing of the town's guards by the Yanhuang Army on Su Luo's side!
With Mayor Su Mingtian dead, even the most elite guards in the mayor's mansion were like a ship without its backbone, utterly powerless to resist!
The town mayor's mansion of Shuiyun Town has been captured! "The first real stronghold has been captured, the curtain will rise, and there will be more developments in the plot. It won't be a bulldozing story where the Si Nan Marquis's mansion is attacked within 100,000 words... The only reason for saying all this is that the book is already full and ready to be read."
