Ma Su felt that his combat plan was foolproof, so he stood up and wanted to find the general Zhang Fei to discuss matters and arrange the combat plan.

Before he could take a step, Ma Su met Gong Li who was pushing the door forward. He should have entered the city, but he was the key figure in attacking the city gate tonight!

Behind Gong Li, several men and women were followed. Ma Su looked closely and recognized Sha Qiu's sisters, Fang Shan and others, so he quickly arranged for them to sit down.

After Ma Su asked the guards to make tea, he began to inquire about Sha Qiu and the others' purpose.

Gong Li didn't know the situation very well, so Fang Shan stuttered and did not dare to speak out the truth. He also peeked at Sha Dong from time to time.

Since Sha Dong came in, his beautiful eyes had never left Ma Su. When he saw Ma Su asking, he naturally took over the conversation and explained their experience in the Jinjiazhai Restaurant clearly.

Because the conflict with Jinjiazhai was caused by Sha Dong, but she didn't think so. She thought that the people in Jinjiazhai were ill-behaved and deliberately sought trouble!

Sha Dong was not embarrassed at all, but because he was in a state of excitement after seeing Ma Su, his face turned slightly red. His eyes looked at Ma Su, with affection and an indescribable charm. Ma Su's eyes were frozen on Sha Dong's face, and he seemed to be a little lost!

When Sha Dong saw Ma Su's eyes, he felt secretly happy, his face became more and more shy, and his little daughter's expression was fully revealed.

In fact, although Ma Su was amazed at Sha Dong's beauty, he was not unable to look down on his eyes.

He is not a lustful person. He suddenly lost his mind because after listening to what Sha Dong said, he suddenly burst into inspiration and his mind opened up. In his mind, a brand new combat plan suddenly appeared.

Ma Su came to his senses. He didn't want to miss the opportunity. After apologizing to Sha Qiu and the others, he left them to rest in the tent. He pulled Gong Li and went out. Only a moment later, the sound of drums gathering generals sounded outside the tent.

Soon, the generals and generals with more than a hundred generals came to Zhang Fei's central army tent.

Zhang Fei, who was still yelling outside the south gate, did not dare to neglect when he heard the drums. He turned over and quickly returned to the tent.

Ma Su met Zhang Fei and whispered like this in his ear for a while. Zhang Fei's big eyes became brighter and brighter, and he kept nodding. Because time was tight, Zhang Fei didn't talk nonsense and asked Ma Su to dispatch troops directly.

Ma Su personally led a thousand elite troops to the hillside ten miles from the direction of Jinjiazhai to ambush. When they saw the troops and horses of Wuling County arrived, they rushed out together. When they retreated, they chased them all the way back to Wuling City.

Gong Li and Tian Shi still attacked the city gate, but the time and location changed. They led the soldiers who were infiltrated into the city to launch a surprise attack at the south gate after Jin Xuan's troops left the city gate, seized the south gate, and picked up the army and horses into the city.

Zhang Fei led 1,500 troops and horses. After Gong Li and Tianshi opened the south gate, he quickly entered the city. After entering the city, he rushed to the prefect's mansion.

The troops and horses were assigned to the place, and Ma Su settled down with his sister Sha Qiu, and went straight to Jinjia Village.

Ma Su made such arrangements because Fang Shan cut down Jin Xuan's son Jin Zuo. He expected that Jin Xuan would not be assured of his son's safety and would definitely return to Jinjia Village to visit him.

Because Jinjia Village chased Sha Qiu and the others who came over, they saw Sha Qiu and others running into Zhang Fei's military camp with their own eyes. Ma Su pretended to run to Jinjia Village in the name of revenge.

In this way, Jin Xuan designated to lead troops to rescue Jinjiazhai. Ma Su attacked him halfway through the way. Once Jin Xuan was captured, it would be like breaking Wuling.

As Ma Su expected, when Jin Xuan learned from the mouth of the servants that his son Jin Zuo was severely injured, and he also knew that the people who had injured his son hid in Zhang Fei's military camp, he was very worried about the safety of his son and his family and could no longer sit still.

Jin Xuan immediately summoned all the officials in Wuling City to discuss matters and prepare to bring two thousand elite troops back to Jinjia Village in person, leaving eight thousand troops to continue defending the city and confront Zhang Fei.

Jin Xuan led his troops to rescue Jinjiazhai, and everyone expressed their support, but who will take over the defense of Wuling City is a difficult question.

Originally, in the official system of the Han Dynasty, each county had a county magistrate who was in charge of the power of military conquest.

But since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the management rights of many counties have been transferred to the hands of powerful families, and a situation has emerged that the military and political affairs are controlled by the prefect.

Except for Changsha, the four counties in Jingnan are basically in the hands of local families, so there is only the prefect and no other county magistrate is set up.

Therefore, he had the final say for whom Jin Xuan gave the rights to Wuling City, and no one thought there was anything wrong with it.

If this matter is easy to deal with during peacetime, as long as Jin Xuan appointed an official under him to be temporarily responsible, the entrusted official will happily accept it. After all, even if he is temporarily responsible, there are many benefits!

But now it is a war, and the agency has a great responsibility and becomes a hot potato. Once the city is broken, the agent cannot afford it, and he may lose his own life.

Jin Xuan pointed out the names of his two trusted officials in a row, hoping that they would act as the agent to defend the city, but they all politely refused.

Originally, Jin Xuan was still considering staying in Wuling County, and his subordinates would take their troops back and take their family to Wuling City.

But suddenly another spy reported that the woman the young master offended might be the family of the general in Liu Bei's army. Now there is a team of about a thousand people running to Jinjia Village.

Jin Xuan was a little anxious at this moment. Without any choice, he didn't care much about it. He followed the convention and let the official who ranked second in the official position take over the city defense.

Below Jin Xuan, Liu Biao personally appointed Gong Zhi as the highest official position. Jin Xuan did not want to hand over the military power to his hands because he was a little disagreeing with him!

But the reinforcements were like putting out fires. He didn't want the Jinjia Village to be broken by Zhang Fei, so he couldn't help but arrange it calmly. He had to hand over the city defense to Gong Zhi, and led his troops out of the north gate and rushed to Jinjia Village.

Being able to take over the defense of Wuling City is exactly what Gong’s ambition is!

Because of his disagreement with Jin Xuan, Gong Zhi is now marginalized by Jin Xuan. He has no way to interfere in the city defense matters and help Ma Su break the city. He has no way to deal with it.

After Gong Zhi took over the city defense, the first thing he did was to go home to find Ma Xian in person and tell him the good news!

When Ma Xian heard that Jin Xuan personally led his troops out of the city to rescue Jinjiazhai, the city defense was taken over by Gong Zhi, and he was overjoyed and asked Gong Zhi to replace the four gate guards with confidants.

Although Gong Zhi had a low position in the past, he was still an old man with decades of official career and was very clear about the rules in the officialdom.

After he became a member of Wuling County, he also arranged two confidants in the army. Although he was just an ordinary general with poor ability, he was still competent to guard the city gate.

It would be very easy for him to promote a few more generals to defend the city, but he proposed to ask Ma Xian to recommend the candidate.

Ma Xian also planted many chess pieces in the army. He first refused and, with Gong Zhi's insistence, recommended his two confidant generals to Gong Zhi.

Gong Zhi brought these trusted generals with him and patrolled the four gates without stopping, and replaced the guards.

The city defense arrangement was completed and it was still early. Gong Zhi sat in the prefect's yamen to prepare for a rest. A soldier came to report that the dust outside the north gate was rising. It seemed that Jin Xuan had retreated. The goalkeeper asked for instructions on how to deal with it.

When Gong Zhi heard that Jin Xuan had retreated, he was afraid that things would change, so he hurriedly led his trusted officials and generals to the North Gate to control the overall situation.
