One kick to the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 218 Next County

The county magistrate of Huguan County is named Dai You, styled Zhaoyuan, and is a native of Huguan County.

The county magistrate Luo Kui and the county captain Chang Mu were out with their troops, so Dai You took charge of all military and political affairs in Huguan County.

Dai You was a scholar, very proficient in writing documents, but he knew little about military affairs.Although Luo Kui took the initiative to lead troops to attack others and did not need to worry about Dai You, after Luo Kui left Huguan County, he still left more than 600 troops to defend the city. He had to take care of the daily military affairs of these 600 people and Dai You was also very tired.

What's more important is that there are still more than 100 prisoners in the military camp.Dai You was afraid that the prisoners would not obey his discipline, so he directly moved his office from the county government to the military camp, and spent every day in the military camp.

On this day, Dai You was busy in the camp, and suddenly a soldier reported that Luo Kui had sent a messenger back.

Dai You quickly summoned the messenger soldiers.The messenger soldier presented a letter box to Dai You. Dai You inspected the wax seal of the letter box, then opened the letter box, took out the letter written by Luo Kui from it, and examined it carefully.

The letter stated that Luo Kui had broken into Zhangzi County yesterday, and there were many affairs after the war. Luo Kui sent Dai You to Zhangzi County to help.Luo Kui ordered Dai You to leave immediately after receiving the letter.In addition, the county Wei Changmu returned to Huguan County to replace Dai You.

After reading the letter, Dai You asked the messenger soldier, "Did the county magistrate ever say when will County Captain Chang come back?"

Chuanxin Bing said: "Lieutenant Chang County returned to Huguan County together with Yang Fengsuo's troops. When the villain left Zhangzi County, Lieutenant Chang County and General Yang Feng had also set off. They must arrive later."

Dai You was surprised: "The Baibo army will also come to Huguan? Do you know why they came here?"

The messenger soldier said: "The villain really doesn't know about this matter. However, since the county lord has arranged for Chang County Captain and Baibo Army to return to Huguan County together, there must be another mission."

Dai You nodded, and said, "The magistrate's strategy is profound, and it's not someone who can see through it. That being the case, I'll pack up and go to Zhangzi County."

The messenger soldier was stunned: "Dai Xiancheng, excuse me for talking too much, won't you wait for Chang Xianwei to come back and handle the handover with you?"

Dai You shook his head and said: "There is nothing to hand over. The county magistrate said in the letter that he will set off as soon as he sees the letter, so he will naturally follow the county magistrate's order."

The messenger said: "In that case, the villain will wait a moment and go on the road with you."

"That's fine!" Dai You readily agreed.Afterwards, arrange for the messenger soldier to go down to rest.

…………

A quarter of an hour later, Dai You took a bookcase, ordered twenty personal guards to accompany him, and left the Huguan County Military Camp with the messenger soldier, and set off on the road.

Along the way, Dai You asked the messenger soldier about the battle.The messenger soldier had a clever mouth, and told Dai You the whole story of the battle.

As soon as they turned around a mountain pass, they suddenly saw an army coming from the south.

"It's the army of Lieutenant Chang County and General Yang Feng." The messenger glanced at the army's flag and said to Dai You.

Dai You immediately ordered to stop, waiting for the army to approach.

After a while, the vanguard of that army was approaching.Dai You took a look and saw that the leading general was Chang Mu, but he didn't recognize the other general. He thought it must be Yang Feng.

"Lieutenant Chang County came so quickly. Dai thought he would meet you halfway, but he didn't expect to see you just over ten miles away from the city." Dai You dismounted and greeted you with a smile. Chang Mu.

The messenger soldier also got off his horse and walked forward beside Dai You.

Seeing Dai You, for some reason, Chang Mu was expressionless, as if there was still a trace of bitterness.

"Chang Xianwei, Dai didn't remember the money I owe you, why didn't you even say hello to Dai?" Seeing Chang Mu's abnormal reaction, Dai You said half in surprise and half jokingly.

"Because he is a prisoner at this time." Suddenly, the messenger soldier standing beside Dai You smiled coldly.

Dai You was startled and subconsciously turned his head to look at the messenger soldier.

With a sound of "cang lang", the messenger soldier drew his sword in his hand, stepped forward, and put the long sword on Dai You's shoulder.

The twenty soldiers not far from Dai You were all shocked when they saw this, and they subconsciously showed their weapons.

"Don't move!" the general beside Chang Mu yelled.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of soldiers behind him suddenly parted and moved to both sides of the road.A row of archers came out, and all the bows and arrows in their hands were aimed at Dai You's soldiers.

"Listen to them, don't move." At this moment, Dai You's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

None of the soldiers dared to move.

"Throw away your weapons and get off your horse!" The enemy general yelled again.

Dai You's soldiers immediately threw down their weapons obediently and got off their horses.

The general waved his hand, and the soldiers on both sides of the road immediately stepped forward and surrounded the unarmed Dai You's personal soldiers.

"Changxian Lieutenant, what's going on?" Dai You then remembered to ask Chang Mu.

Chang Mu sighed, "Brother Dai, the county magistrate is dead, and all our troops have been captured by the county magistrate Qin and General Yang."

"This..." Dai You was dumbfounded.

"Dai Xiancheng, right? Someone is Qin Yi."

Behind those archers, they rode out more and more, and said to Dai You: "Dai County Chancellor, there are two roads before you, the first is to surrender and hand over Huguan County; the second...hehe ,You know."

After finishing speaking, Qin Yi waved at the "messenger soldier" who kidnapped Dai You: "Yuan Jian, let Dai Xiancheng go, let him think about it."

"No!" The messenger soldier immediately removed the long sword from Dai You's shoulder.It turned out that this messenger soldier was pretended by Liao Hua.

Qin Yi's strategy was very simple. He used Luo Kui's seal to order Zhao Yun to write a letter to Dai You to lure Dai You out of the city.Then, he directly captured Dai You in the middle of the road.In this way, regardless of whether Dai You will surrender or not, Huguan County can be broken without a fight.

Liao Hua had been to Huguan County with Wang Heng, and had inquired about the news in the county, so he was very familiar with the county, so he pretended to be Luo Kui's messenger soldier and delivered the letter to Dai You.

Dai You just pondered for a while, then smiled wryly: "Dai has no other way of life except to surrender. County magistrate of Qin, Dai is willing to surrender!"

After finishing speaking, he knelt down on the ground facing Qin Yi.Seeing this, his cronies also fell to their knees.

"Deputy Dai, please, since you have surrendered, let Qin go to take over Huguan County." Qin Yi walked up to Dai You and said with a smile on his face.

"I would like to obey the order of the county magistrate of Qin." Dai You stood up.

"Haha, Brother Qin Xian, let me say that Huguan County is at your fingertips!" The general beside Chang Mu laughed.This person is Yang Feng.

There are only three officials in Huguan County, Luo Kui is the county magistrate, Dai You is the county magistrate and chief bookkeeper, and Chang Mu is the county lieutenant.The rest are officials recruited by Luo Kui, as well as middle and low-level officers in the army.Luo Kui is dead, Chang Mu and Dai You have surrendered, and Huguan County will surely fall into Qin Yi's hands.
