"What?!"

When Pan Ji heard this, he stood up suddenly, his face changed slightly, and he paced back and forth.

"Didn't the imperial army just be repelled by the White Lotus Cult thieves yesterday?"

Pan Ji naturally saw everything that happened yesterday.

Especially those elite troops of the White Lotus Sect lurking in the dark made him break out in cold sweat.

Just talking about yesterday's battle, it was lucky that all the imperial army was able to retreat.

Now the officer told him that the imperial army had arrived at the city?

Could it be that the imperial army defeated tens of thousands of White Lotus Sect's elite soldiers overnight?

Pan Ji suddenly felt it was impossible.

"Could it be that the White Lotus Cult thieves were pretending to be imperial officers and soldiers to trick me into opening the city gate on purpose?" This thought flashed through Pan Ji's mind, but he immediately denied it.

If the White Lotus Sect army really defeated the imperial officers and soldiers, why would they use this method to deceive the city gate?

If the army directly pressed forward, it would be impossible for Penggu County, whose city wall was only three meters tall, to stop them.

Yue Buqun also heard the news that the imperial army had arrived at the city, and saw why Pan Ji hesitated.

"Master Pan, let's go to the top of the city and take a look. Maybe the imperial army is really here."

"That's fine." Seeing that Yue Buqun had said so, Pan Ji could only smile bitterly and nod. "But how about asking Master Yue to come with me?"

When Yue Buqun heard this, he was quite speechless, but he didn't show it on his face and nodded with a smile.

Lin Chen looked at the frightened civilian guards on the wall with a calm expression.

On the other hand, warriors like Yang Zhi couldn't bear it any longer.

“You haven’t opened the city gate yet?!”

"Here, this general, I have ordered someone to report to the county magistrate. Only after he comes can we start..."

Before the guard could finish his trembling words, the anger on Yang Zhi's face became more and more obvious, and he was about to curse angrily.

He and his team destroyed the White Lotus Sect army, but now they have to be exposed to the scorching sun at noon.

"Sir, this Penggu County official is so ignorant!" Wei Cheng then rode forward and muttered in Lin Chen's ear.

Obviously, he and Yang Zhi were in similar moods.

Fortunately, at this time, the policemen on the city seemed to have a backbone and calmed down.

Just look at a county magistrate in green wearing the uniform of a seventh-grade official walking up to the city.

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the county magistrate, who was about thirty years old.

"Who is under the city!?" Pan Jizhuang shouted with courage, and at the same time he glanced at the neat soldiers below, feeling secretly shocked.

"you!"

Yang Zhigang wanted to have a fit, but was stopped by Lin Chen.

"A certain family is specially sent by His Majesty to fight against the rebel general, Lin Chenjia." Lin Chen said with a smile, "Master Yue, I didn't expect to meet here again."

When Yue Buqun heard the voice, a flash of astonishment flashed in his eyes, and then he realized that the voice was very familiar.

"Is it Lin Dutong?" Yue Buqun asked tentatively.

"Exactly down there."

"Lord Pan, please open the city gate. The leading general is an old acquaintance of Yue's!" Yue Buqun didn't expect it either.

Lin Chenjia, the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, who we met once in the capital, suddenly turned into a general commanding tens of thousands of troops!

Pan Ji was startled when he heard this.

Naturally, he believed Yue Buqun's words and immediately called the guards to open the door.

"Hmph!" Yang Zhi looked at Pan Ji and snorted coldly.

Seeing this, Lin Chen ordered: "The army has entered the city and passed on. Anyone who harasses the people or violates military discipline will be severely punished!"

The people of Penggu County, who had been besieged by the White Lotus Sect for a long time, couldn't help but cautiously look outside through the cracks in the windows after learning that the imperial army was coming.

"General Lin!"

At this time, Pan Ji walked down the city wall and came to Lin Chen's horse and bowed in salute.

"Pan Ji, the magistrate of Xia Penggu County, was responsible for his previous duties, so don't be surprised."

Lin Chen looked at the county magistrate in front of him with interest.

"nothing."

Lin Chen didn't care enough about this kind of thing.

Then, Lin Chen looked at Yue Buqun and bowed his hands towards him.

"Master Yue, why are you here?"

Lin Chen could remember that the other party left the capital many days before him and why he was in Penggu County.

When Yue Buqun saw Lin Chen asking about this matter, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

"Yue is troubled by General Lin's thoughts."

Yue Buqun talked about why he was here.

It turned out that Yue Buqun led the Huashan disciples to leave the capital.

While walking and walking, they unexpectedly encountered the White Lotus Rebellion.

Yue Buqun, who was afraid of being implicated, could only walk back.

Who would have thought that the White Lotus Sect was so powerful that it forced the White Lotus Sect to wander around and settle down in Penggu County.

The next step is to help Penggu County resist the rebel army.

Hearing this, Lin Chen nodded thoughtfully, thought of something, and asked with a chuckle:

"By the way, Master Yue, do you still remember Lin Pingzhi?"

When Yue Buqun heard this, his heart moved slightly: "Is Pingzhi also in General Lin's army?"

"Of course, I'll let him come to see Master Yue later."

After saying that, Lin Chen slightly cupped his hands and said, "General, I still have military affairs to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."

"General Lin, walk slowly."

Pan Ji and Yue Buqun watched Lin Chen leave with different colors in their eyes.

Pan Ji was the first to express surprise: "These soldiers under General Lin are actually mighty troops!"

After all, soldiers who enter the city without disturbing the people are rare in Pan Ji's opinion.

This shows that Lin Chenjia has a good command of the army.

Yue Buqun's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

then.

He excuses himself to say goodbye to Pan Ji.

The disciples of Huashan Sect all live in inns in the county.

The people in the county who were originally panic-stricken finally dared to leave their homes after the army entered the city.

"Senior brother."

Ning Zhong saw her husband coming back and shouted immediately.

Yue Buqun chuckled and nodded, and then told everyone present a piece of breaking news.

"Junior sister, you have seen the person who led the imperial army to put down the rebellion this time."

"Oh?" Ning Zhongze naturally heard about the arrival of the imperial army in Penggu County.

"who is it?"

"It was Lin Dutong and Lin Chenjia whom we met at Sitong Chamber of Commerce that day."

"Father, who do you think you are?!"

Yue Lingshan, who was dressing the wound of a Huashan sect disciple, brightened up when she heard this.

"hiss!"

The unlucky Huashan sect disciple felt his wound being pulled hard by the bandage, and he almost died from the pain.

"Lingshan!" Seeing this, Yue Buqun became so angry that he scolded her with a straight face.

Yue Lingshan smiled awkwardly and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

"And the Pingzhi we rescued earlier was also in Lin Dutong's army."

For Ning Zhongze, Lin Pingzhi had a very good impression on her.

As for Lin Pingzhi, who was missed by Yue Buqun, he was writing letters home with his soldiers.

"General Lin Bai, your handwriting is so beautiful!" A young soldier said with respect.

Lin Pingzhi also practiced martial arts since he was a child. After joining the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, he was selected as a hundred-man general.

Originally, these vulgar men did not think highly of Lin Pingzhi, a pretty boy.

But for now.

Lin Pingzhi has obviously gained the respect of his soldiers.

"General Lin Bai, General Lin is calling you to go to the military tent!"

At this time, someone reported it.

Lin Pingzhi put down the soldier's family letter he had just written, with a look of surprise on his face.

"General, what do you want with me?"

"I don't know." The person shook his head.
