Chapter 272: Martial Saint Grandmaster

Wuyang County City, County Magistrate's Mansion.

Guo Sixiang was awakened by his subordinates from his new concubine's room early in the morning. The reason was that an envoy from Qianwu City came to the mansion to deliver a message, saying that the commander-in-chief of the imperial army, Lin Youlong, was leading a magic armor corps to Wuyang County and was about to arrive. They needed to borrow a passage from Wuyang County City and change to a waterway here. He hoped that he, the county magistrate, could do a good job of reception and coordination.

Guo Sixiang was in a very gloomy mood. First, because his sweet dream was disturbed, and second, because the message came too suddenly. The magic armor corps wanted to borrow a passage to pass through, but the other party suddenly notified him when they were right under his nose. In a hurry, he couldn't help but be flustered and cursed in his heart.

Especially since he already knew what happened recently in the neighboring Lujiang County. The Xiang family wanted to deal with the Lu family, but they didn't expect to fail. Not only was his son captured, but even Kyoto's top swordsman Gu Sian was defeated.

This magic armor corps was obviously sent by the third prince to put out the fire for the Xiang family, but Guo Sixiang himself did not belong to the third prince's faction. This matter had nothing to do with him, but he did not expect that the matter would suddenly come to him, so Guo Sixiang was even more complaining about it.

But despite his complaints, he still had to do it. Who told him that he was still a vassal of the Dawu Dynasty in name? The other party came with the royal seal. If he refused to obey the order, it would be like handing his braid to the other party.

Guo Sixiang sent people to the city to clean up the venue, prepare various matters for the reception, and requisition ships. Early in the morning, people came and went in the county governor's mansion, and he was very busy.

"Mr. County Governor, our spies sent back an urgent report..."

Suddenly, a subordinate hurried into the mansion and said in front of Guo Sixiang in a panic.

Guo Sixiang looked up at the subordinate and found that it was Li Chunwang who was in charge of the Intelligence Department. He couldn't help asking: "Have you found Lin Dutong's magic armor corps? Where are they now?"

Li Chunwang shook his head, his voice a little difficult: "It's not Lin Dutong's side, but a big thing happened in the neighboring Lujiang County..."

"Lujiang County?"

Guo Sixiang frowned slightly: "What big thing happened there?"

"The Xiang family, who holds the position of Lujiang County Governor, is preparing to go to war with the Lu family. Thinking of it, he was suddenly affected by many families such as the Ye family, Huang family, and Li family. After confirming this news, there is absolutely no problem ... "" No wonder! "Guo Yixiang spit out a bite of turbid air." I said that Lin Youlong did not miss the wind before, but now it is anxious to say that it would happen to our Wuyang County. For the convenient waterway ... I didn't expect it to be a step later! "Li Chunwang agreed with Guo Yixiang's inference. He hesitated and asked," Adults, then you see that we need to notify "what to do in Lujiang County?" "

Guo Sixiang glared and snorted in dissatisfaction.

"This is Lujiang County's internal affairs. What does it have to do with our Wuyang County? Besides, the Third Prince is a man of great talent and strategy. Since he is already worried about this matter, we don't need to go over and make trouble!"

"In addition..."

Guo Sixiang's eyes suddenly flashed a cunning look.

"You report this matter to the Prince's Mansion, and then investigate the situation in Songshan. Have a group of robbers appeared there recently? Find out their specific whereabouts for me! "

Li Chunwang was stunned. He could understand informing the Prince of Wuyang. The Prince of Wuyang always supported the Seventh Prince. If the Prince of Wuyang knew about this, then the Seventh Prince would also know about it...

But what was the point of investigating the whereabouts of the robbers? Could it be that at this critical moment, the county governor still had the mind to suppress the bandits?

Guo Sixiang did not explain much, but just smiled inscrutablely.

Li Chunwang had no choice but to make arrangements with full of questions.

It was not until not long after that when Lin Youlong led his magic armor corps to Wuyang City, he finally understood the purpose of Guo Sixiang's move...

Because Lin Youlong had just got off the horse, the first sentence he said was: "County Governor Guo, there is a serious rebellion in Lujiang City, and this matter must be severely punished! In order to avoid the collapse of the situation and then affect Wuyang County under your jurisdiction, please immediately clear your troops and rush to Lujiang County with me to quell the rebellion! "

Guo Sixiang replied, "It is really worrying that such a change happened in Lujiang County. I will quickly calm down the situation there to prevent the people from suffering more misfortunes. However, there is a serious bandit problem in Songshan area of ​​our Wuyang County. If it is not calmed down as soon as possible, I am afraid it will also turn into a chaos in Lujiang... I also want to help Lin Dutong, but I am really unable to do so..."

Li Chunwang was stunned when he heard it. The reason why Guo Sixiang asked him to investigate the bandits in Songshan was to refuse Lin Dutong's conscription here.

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel deeply impressed by Guo Sixiang's planning and calculation. No wonder he could become the county governor, while he was just a small subordinate.

Lin Youlong was not satisfied with this answer, and his eyes became malicious.

"Banditism? Is it true or false? Isn't this banditism coming at a very good time?"

Guo Si waved to Li Chunwang: "Director Li, you immediately submitted the intelligence about the banditism in Songshan. Please review it to General Lin."

Li Chunwang quickly took out the intelligence document prepared in advance and was about to give it to Lin Youlong for review, but Lin Youlong waved his hand and directly dismissed him.

"No need to read it! Even if it is true, so what? It's just a bandit problem. As a county governor, can't you tell the difference between the important and the unimportant?"

Guo Sixiang said calmly: "It is precisely because I am the governor of Wuyang County and a parent that I understand the importance of defending the land. For the happiness and stability of the millions of people in Wuyang County, we can't be careless about anything!"

Lin Youlong sneered: "What a 'parent, defending the land'! Lord Guo is really a good county governor!"

Guo Sixiang ignored the other party's sarcasm: "Lin Dutong is too flattering. There is no point in saying more. If you want me to send troops to Lujiang County, unless the Ministry of War officially "The transfer order from the Ministry of War is issued, otherwise I will still prioritize the stability of this county!"

Lin Youlong glared and said, "In an emergency, you will follow me to send troops first, and the transfer order from the Ministry of War will be issued to you soon!"

Guo Sixiang was indifferent: "Without the transfer order from the Ministry of War, we cannot send troops!"

Lin Youlong was very angry: "I think you don't want the position of county governor anymore. Do you know that you are going against the third prince by doing this!"

Guo Sixiang said: "This official is also for the court. His Royal Highness the Third Prince will definitely understand my painstaking efforts!"

"You... are simply unreasonable!"

...

No matter how Lin Youlong put pressure on him, Guo Sixiang was always unmoved.

The group of people around were dumbfounded. They didn't expect that the two adults would be so tit-for-tat as soon as they met.

Faced with such a situation, the people around could only tremble, and no one dared to come forward to persuade them.

The two sides were deadlocked, and suddenly a voice sounded from the Magic Armor Corps.

"Enough! Be quiet, that's enough!"

The voice was not loud, but it sounded like thunder in everyone's ears, and there was a sense of majesty in the tone of the voice.

Everyone was stunned and turned their heads to look in the direction of the voice. They saw layers of magic armor puppet soldiers lined up, and a strong man walked out of them.

Beside him was a swordsman with a calm and steady aura, who was Gu Si'an, who was honored as the No. 1 swordsman in Kyoto.

The No. 1 swordsman in Kyoto was as obedient as a child in front of this strong man.

When he saw this man, Guo Sixiang's pupils shrank immediately.

Isn't this person the martial saint master sitting in the imperial city - Gao Zhengbang!
