Chapter 1869: Captured for No Apparent Reason

Kangjun Barracks.

Accompanied by the generals, Zhao Ping was very satisfied with the progress of the training when he inspected it.

I was originally worried that the newly recruited troops would have many problems, but I found that the military discipline was good.

"Prefect, the quality of the 80,000 militiamen recruited this time is very good." Captain Zheng Chun smiled at the side, "Including our 20,000 regular county soldiers, there will be a total of 100,000. Once the war with the Han Kingdom breaks out , the army can go out at any time."

"Yes! Captain Zheng is our most powerful general in Kang County. If the war between Liang and Han breaks out, he will definitely make great achievements!" Zhao Ping nodded slightly.

"The prefect is strategizing and is the pillar of Kang County!"

"Haha~ You and I both serve His Majesty, so we should work together!"

"What the prefect said is true! Chun must follow the prefect and guard Kang County for me, Daliang."

"There shouldn't be anything big happening in the military camp, right?"

"Don't worry, Grandmaster, the morale of the military camp is strong, and there are a hundred thousand soldiers and horses at your fingertips! It's just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just about military pay..."

Zhao Ping reached out and patted Zheng Chun on the shoulder: "Captain, don't worry, I will handle it as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Governor!"

"Come on, let's go take a look at the front."

"yes......"

Zhao Ping and Zheng Chun rode forward side by side, followed by Kang County's civil and military officials.

Whether it is the regular army barracks or the militia barracks still in training, they are all managed very strictly. Captain Zheng Chun is indeed a rare general.

To be honest, because of the conflict between Liang and Han, war may break out at any time. Most of the militiamen were forced to join the army and were full of resentment.

Zheng Chun was able to calm down the militia's resentment and actively participate in training in such a short period of time. This alone is extremely impressive.

What's more, the military pay for a hundred thousand troops is a terrible figure, and arrears are normal. It's just that the soldiers who were not paid were even more resentful, so he still suppressed them, which was not easy.

The prefect Zhao Ping was quite satisfied and glad that he promoted Zheng Chun.

As we were marching forward, suddenly there was a sudden gust of wind.

The next moment, the team suddenly stopped, and the atmosphere in the military camp became uncomfortable.

"Why did you stop?" After the cold wind passed, Zheng Chun beside him and the civil and military officials behind him all reined in their reins, and Zhao Ping turned around in confusion.

Looking around, there were also many generals riding around.

Strangely, Captain Zheng Chun, who had been chatting and laughing with him before, suddenly turned gloomy.

Not only him, but also other civil and military officials are like this, giving people a lifeless feeling.

"Captain Zheng, why is this happening?" Zhao Ping vaguely felt something was wrong, but couldn't tell what was wrong, so he asked loudly.

However, Zheng Chun and the civil and military officials did not answer. They surrounded him and quickly removed the prefect from his horse and tied him up quickly.

"Bold! Stop it!" Zhao Ping tried to resist, but he was no match for so many people. After a while, he was wrapped into a rice dumpling, placed on the back of the horse, and turned around to the other side. His mouth was also blocked and he couldn't say anything.

The civil and military officials led Zhao Ping on horseback and left the military camp. Captain Zheng Chun led his men to clean up the troops.

It seemed like nothing happened.

Zhao Ping was hanging on the horse, his whole body was tightly tied up, and his mind was in a mess.

Weren't you fine just now? Why is everything suddenly wrong with his men?

He is the prefect and the highest official in Kang County. How dare they tie him up?

Moreover, where are we going after leaving the military camp?

He didn't understand what exactly happened from beginning to end.

He wanted to reprimand him harshly, but because his mouth was blocked and he couldn't make a sound, and he couldn't struggle to open it, he could only place his hope on the monk Wu Guan and hope that he would come back soon.

However, after a long time, monk Wu Guan did not return. His heart skipped a beat, remembering the scene where ghosts were flying around in the sky just now.

Originally there was monk Wu Guan, who felt particularly relieved.

Not to mention the sudden appearance of ghosts, even if the Tiger Roar King from Tiger Roar Cave leads the demon soldiers to attack the city, there is nothing scary about it.

But it's just a ghost. Monk Wu Guan has been away for so long and hasn't been able to come back. I'm afraid things are not that simple.

In the blink of an eye, civil and military officials escorted the prefect and arrived near the vegetable market.

There was not a single common person in sight on the streets. They were flying everywhere above the city, so frightened that all the common people fled home to hide. Who dared to stay outside?

Next to the empty vegetable market is a guillotine specially used to process death row prisoners.

Coming here, Zhao Ping felt even more uneasy.

This is a very unlucky place. In the past, I would not be willing to come to execute prisoners. What’s more, the atmosphere feels abnormal today?

He tried to get the civil and military officials to stop, but he could only make a "wow" sound from the horse's back.

When they arrived near the guillotine, they suddenly saw three people sitting in the execution area.

In the center was a beautiful young woman with a cold face and no trace of a smile. Two big men beside her stared coldly at her, and there were several officials accompanying her.

Zhao Ping was confused, what was the origin of these three people who looked so unfamiliar?

Why did the civil and military officials in Kang County suddenly rebel? What happened?

Could it be that he had committed something and His Majesty secretly sent someone to arrest him?

It shouldn't be! Not to mention that I have done nothing to arouse His Majesty's suspicion. At the time of the confrontation between Liang and Han, Kang County is very important to Your Majesty, and there is no reason to attack me at this juncture. After all, temporarily changing the governor would give Han an opportunity.

So, the other party is from Han?

Not right either!

Although the war between the two countries could break out at any time, there was no possibility of easing. But just now, I saw thousands of ghosts breaking into the city. This practice was not in line with the style of the Han Kingdom.

The Han Kingdom respected Buddhism and hated evil spirits and ghosts. It would never allow ghosts to abuse everywhere.

Speaking of monsters, the Tang Kingdom was a well-known monster-supporting force. There were even many monsters in the country that turned into human forms to serve the Tang Emperor.

Could it be that the Tang Kingdom secretly intervened while Liang and Han were confronting each other head-on?

The problem is, this doesn't make sense.

If the Tang Kingdom wanted to intervene, it would not bypass Xi Kingdom.

Unless Xi Kingdom signed an alliance with the Tang Kingdom, allowing the Tang Kingdom's army to cross the territory of Xi Kingdom.

However, this was completely impossible. Zhang Zhe led his troops to seize the four states, and he had offended Cheng Shun to the extreme. The two sides were incompatible and it was impossible to sign an alliance.

It was even more impossible for Cheng Shun to let Zhang Zhe send troops across the border to attack Liang Guo Kang County here...

Which force intervened? What was the purpose?

Which country do the three people in front of me belong to? How did they make all the civil and military officials of Kang County defect?

Zhao Ping asked himself that he treated his subordinates with courtesy and had a good relationship with each other, so there should be no problem with loyalty.

In this case, there is only one possibility - witchcraft!

Then the problem returns to the starting point, it must be related to those ghosts that suddenly appeared. Controlling ghosts is generally the specialty of the demon clan. The demon clan supports the Tang Kingdom, and the Tang Kingdom cannot bypass the Xi Kingdom to sneak attack Kang County...

The more I think about it, the more confused I am, and I can't come up with a conclusion.
