Chapter 1738: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1738: Dog Official, Surrender Your Life
Currently, around three hundred people have all been captured by them.
Even if there are a few stragglers, they are not a threat.
Meng Yunzheng looked at the completely darkening sky and reached out to Meng Qi, "Bow and arrows."
Meng Qi quickly took the bow and arrows off his back. Meng Yunzheng lifted his gaze, strung the bow, and the bowstring straightened out.
In the next moment, he suddenly released his right hand.
A long cry of "wu..." instantly resounded in the sky above Chenggu County.
The Master Yang and others who were originally hiding near the two city gates brightened their eyes and suddenly shouted loudly, "Brothers, charge!"
The officials guarding the city gates were drowsy. For them, Chenggu County was no real danger; they were just putting up appearances. But even pretending was tiring, especially since General Huang had come early that day.
So, when the sound of the arrow's whistle came, they were surprised but didn't take it seriously. They just looked up at the sky in confusion.
Little did they know that the next moment, a group of people armed with knives, guns, swords, and halberds charged towards them.
The officials were stunned, looking bewilderedly as the group of people already rushed to their vicinity and directly attacked them.
Some officials yelled loudly in protest, but no one listened.
This group of people amounted to sixty or seventy individuals, a stark contrast to the thirty or so officials guarding the gate. They were outnumbered and outmaneuvered.
Unfortunately, the city gate was closed, the route into the city was blocked, and they had nowhere to escape. They were directly confronted by a group of people with blades and swords at their throats, surrendering helplessly.
Some officials didn't understand what was happening and protested their innocence loudly.
But the Master Yang and his group didn't care. Young Master Meng had said that among them, there might be officials who were genuinely innocent and unaware of the truth. However, it didn't matter; to be safe, they would all be captured first and sorted out later.
As for who was innocent, after the events, people would gradually interrogate and determine that. If it was proven they truly had no involvement, they would be released then.
Meanwhile, in the county office, County Magistrate Cheng frowned as he read the official documents.
Unlike the officials who felt the matter was settled and had nothing to worry about, County Magistrate Cheng was on edge. General Huang had come, and even if he wasn't in the city, he couldn't relax.
When the sound of the arrow's whistle reached him, he jumped in surprise.
Subconsciously, he thought General Huang and his forces had already taken action; this was their signal.
But immediately after, he realized something was amiss. The sound of the arrow's whistle was too close, as if... it was within the city.
County Magistrate Cheng's expression suddenly changed. He urgently stood up and hurriedly walked out of his study, loudly calling for his guards, "Ah Ping, Ah Ping, go see what's happening."
A guard quickly came to County Magistrate Cheng's side at the doorway and responded, then headed out.
Little did they know that after taking a few steps, more than twenty people rushed in noisily from outside.
The leading woman exuded a chilling aura, the tip of her sword gleaming with cold light, tainted with fresh red blood.
County Magistrate Cheng was greatly alarmed. He stepped back forcefully, "Who are you? How dare you commit violence in the county office?"
Xia Yi said coldly, "Imperial Guard, Xia Yi. Dog official, surrender your life."
Imperial Guard???
County Magistrate Cheng drew in a cold breath. The Emperor knew; he knew that County Magistrate Cheng was aligned with the Second Prince.
And this Xia Yi, when did she enter Chenggu County?
