Chapter 1714 Two choices
Two choices, they always have to choose one.
Meng Yunzheng looked at Shu Yu, "What do you think?"
The latter pondered for a moment, then affirmed, "Go back to the county seat."
"It's a coincidence, I think so too."
Chenggu County is in the hands of the magistrate, but because of this, they need to return to Chenggu County even more. The Meng family is still in the city, and Master Yang, He Er, and his family are still in the city.
If they don't go back, then all these people are the hostages of the county magistrate. Even if the rebellion outside has been quelled, as long as the gate of Chenggu County is closed and the secret passage is guarded, they will still be controlled by others.
Rather than that, let's disintegrate Chenggu County from the inside.
In general, there are three inspectors in the county seat, and each inspector has more than 100 people under him. The armed forces of the entire county seat are about 400.
But Chenggu County has experienced a chaos, and according to the normal process, they will ask Fucheng for help.
Changjinfufucheng is not a border area, so there are less than 2,000 troops stationed there.
There was such a big incident in Chenggu County, and more than 200 people from the garrison came to help. Of the remaining thousand and eighteen, half of them continued to guard the palace city, and half of them went to the mountains to suppress bandits.
Therefore, the armed forces in Chenggu County now number around 600 people in total.
Some of these 600 people were guarding the two city gates, and the rest were patrolling the city.
But Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu turned around in the city. Judging from the frequency of their encounters with patrol officers and soldiers, the number of them was definitely not that many.
Therefore, they suspect that some of these 600 people may have been selected to come to the black market and act as bandits to fight against the upcoming General Huang.
Of course, the fewer people the better for them.
And Shu Yu felt that among so many people, it was impossible for all of them to be bribed, all on the side of the second prince and the third prince, right? This is a treason. It is a big crime to seize the family and annihilate the family. It is impossible for everyone to risk their entire family's life.
Now that they have weapons in their hands and a secret passage that leads directly to the county magistrate's private residence, this situation is not impossible to try.
Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng had the same idea. After the two reached an agreement, they left the arsenal and walked towards the medical room.
But there was no one in the medical room at this time, only a few people under Lu Wu's hands were guarding.
They said that Xia Yi took everyone else to the cell. Now that all the thieves in the black market have been caught, the people in the cell can naturally be released.
Meng Yunzheng and the two turned to the cell, and Xia Yi was bringing out the girls who were locked in the innermost.
Everyone was obviously very happy, but at the same time, there was also a bit of daze.
Especially the laborers locked in the two cells at the entrance, they were also released, but they all stood together, crowded together, looking helpless.
They don't know what will happen next, people in the black market are caught, can they go out? Can they go home? Will these people let them go?
They don't know, and they are also full of worries about the unknown future, for fear that they will enter other tiger dens after coming out of the wolf's den of the black market.
Shu Yu sighed secretly upon seeing this, these people still need time to adapt.
But apparently, they didn't have much time.
Meng Yunzheng had already walked up to Master Yang and others. Compared with the others, they were the happiest and most excited.
After being locked up for so many days, I can finally go home.
Seeing Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu, they thanked them repeatedly and said that they would definitely give generous gifts when they returned home.
