After Zhao Ziliang turned around and walked out, he remembered what Fumeng Lingjin had just said.
It was really not safe to leave the Tuqi messenger at the inn.
If they were discovered along the way and the news was leaked, the Tuqi messengers in Shule Town would be exposed.
Shi Xizuo or a spy learned that there may be consequences.
Who can guarantee that Tuqi Shi will not have armed forces in Shule Town?
The more Zhao Ziliang thought about it, the more he felt uneasy.
He couldn't help but speed up his pace.
When he walked out of the town's mansion in a hurry, he accidentally bumped into someone.
He was tall and burly, so naturally he was fine, but the person who was hit had a hard time. , was knocked staggering all of a sudden, took a few steps back and fell to the ground.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Zhao Ziliang hurriedly stepped forward and helped the man up.
There were several lanterns hanging at the gate of the governor's house, which gave some light.
Zhao Ziliang saw that the man who was hit had a beard on his chin and had squinting eyes.
He looked like he was in his thirties.
He was not only thin, but also had short and lame feet.
This look I really can't flatter him, but he was the one who bumped into someone just now.
He was indeed in the wrong.
He kept saying, "I'm Zhao Ziliang.
I was walking in a hurry just now and accidentally bumped into my brother.
Please forgive me."
The thin and ugly man grimaced in pain and gasped as he kept rubbing his buttocks: "It's okay to hiss, Brother Zhao did it unintentionally."
Zhao Ziliang thought of the Tuqi messenger at the post station, and it was inconvenient to stay here for too long.
Seeing this slender man wearing armor, he said, "I don't know what my brother's surname is and what position he holds in the garrison."
The slender man cupped his hands and said, "Brother Feng Changqing is a follower of Lord Fumeng.
He just makes a living with Lord Fumeng."
"Feng Changqing" Zhao Ziliang was stunned when he heard this.
This was Feng Changqing, the famous general of the Tang Dynasty who would become famous in the future.
He could not believe what he looked like.
But if there was no second Feng Changqing in the Tang Dynasty, then this person would undoubtedly be Later, Feng Changqing succeeded Gao Xianzhi as the deputy governor of Anxi and the military governor of the four towns of Anxi.
Unexpectedly, Feng Changqing at this time was just a follower of Fumeng Lingjin.
He felt a lot of emotion in his heart, but Zhao Zi's conscience was concerned about the safety of the messenger, so he immediately said to Feng Changqing: "Brother Feng, I still have errands to do.
When I finish my errands, I will definitely come to apologize."
Feng Changqing was born with an ugly appearance, and people around him didn't like him very much.
At this time, Zhao Ziliang was so polite to him, and he immediately felt good about him.
He quickly returned the greeting and said: "It doesn't matter, since Brother Zhao has something to do, let's go first Go run an errand.”
"Little brother, take a step first and say goodbye."
After Zhao Ziliang said that, he turned around and strode away.
After meeting up with Sangouzi, the two of them rode horses and rushed towards the inn.
After just a cup of tea, the two of them rushed back to the inn.
When they were less than 200 meters away from the inn, a shout suddenly came from the direction of the inn.
Zhao Ziliang was shocked when he heard the sound of killing.
If the sound of killing came from the inn, it would be very bad, so he beat the horses even more and ran to the inn as fast as possible.
When they arrived at the door of the inn, Zhao Ziliang and San Gouzi saw that the inn was already in chaos.
Two parties were fighting together.
One of them was the troops he brought with him, and the other side was a dozen men in black and masked clothes.

People, all holding steel knives.
At this time, a group of his soldiers, led by Chief Wang Can, formed a shield and spear formation to block the entrance of the main hall.
Although there were many thieves, they could not rush into the main hall for a while.
"The thief is so brave, kill him!"
Zhao Ziliang shouted loudly, drew out the sword from his waist, rode his horse into the group of thieves from behind and slashed with the sword.
In just a few breaths, he chopped down several masked thieves, followed by several green fluorescent beams.
Being sucked into the wrench.
Sangouzi was also very brave at this time.
He followed Zhao Ziliang to look after each other, and the two of them worked together to chop the unsuspecting thieves into pieces.
In the blink of an eye, most of the thieves were killed or wounded, and their morale plummeted.
Upon seeing this, Chief Wang Can immediately divided his soldiers into three groups, each of three, forming an attack formation to attack the thieves.
The thieves were killed and retreated. , those who couldn't dodge were chopped to the ground, and the remaining two or three turned around and fled outside when they saw the situation was bad.
Zhao Ziliang immediately turned his horse around and chased after him.
He waved his sword horizontally and raised the sword with his hand.
With three strokes, he cut down the last three thieves to the ground.
In order to leave alive, he did not kill them, but just chopped them down.
Loss of ability to fight back and move.
San Gouzi rode a war horse and Commander Wang Can and four soldiers chased him out.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Ziliang immediately ordered: "Tie them all up and find someone to treat their injuries.
Don't let them die."
"Yes, leader."
Wang Can agreed and waved to the four soldiers behind him.
The soldiers found ropes from nowhere and tied up the three masked thieves who were chopped to the ground.
Wang Can said again: "Commander, there are still two thieves alive in the courtyard.
The others are all dead.
Adding these three, there are a total of eighteen thieves.
One of us was killed and four were injured."
"Let's go back."
Zhao Ziliang listened to Wang Can's report and rode towards the inn.
After confirming that the envoy was still safe and sound, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Under the command of Zhao Ziliang, the soldiers in the courtyard were holding torches to place the bodies of the dead thieves neatly in the courtyard of the post station.
The body of a soldier who died in battle was also collected properly, and the soldiers sent out to ask for a doctor quickly brought him away.
The doctors came over to treat the injured soldiers and thieves.
The torch illuminated the yard of the inn brightly.
Zhao Ziliang held the handle of the knife and walked around the corpses on the ground.
He also observed them.
He squatted down in front of one of the thieves' corpses, took off his mask, and saw the thieves and the riders.
The Shi people looked the same.
In order to confirm his suspicion, he contacted all the thieves' corpses and uncovered them.
As expected, these thieves were all Shi Ren.
"Yi Cheng, where is Yi Cheng?"
Zhao Ziliang turned around and shouted.
After the battle, some of the guests who had stayed at the inn earlier but were so frightened came out to watch.
Naturally, the inn’s ministers and soldiers were also among them.
When they heard Zhao Ziliang’s shouts, all the fat middle-aged people came out to watch.

People quickly agreed: "It's coming, it's coming."
When the postmaster saw that Zhao Ziliang was tall and powerful, he thought that his military position must be not small, so he was particularly respectful.
"I am Fan Ren, the postmaster here.
I don't know what the general's orders are."
"Prisoner" Zhao Ziliang couldn't help complaining, how come there are still people with such a name?
This can be regarded as an anecdote.
"It's Fan Yang's Fan, the benevolent benevolence" Yi Cheng explained.
"Oh" Zhao Ziliang nodded, cupped his hands to Yi Cheng and said, "Excuse me, Fan Yi Cheng, take a look, do you know these people on the ground?"
Fan Ren returned the salute and kept saying "don't dare".
After some identification, Fan Ren shook his head and said: "I don't know them.
These people look like they are riding on horseback."
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said to Wang Can: "Bring those thieves who are not dead yet over here."
"yes" The injured thieves were quickly escorted over.
At this time, all their masks had been taken off.
Zhao Ziliang pointed at the thieves and said to Fan Ren: "Look at these people again.
Do you know any of them?"
Fan Ren looked at the five injured thieves, his expression suddenly changed, and he pointed at one of the middle-aged thieves with a beard and said: : "Isn't this Negro, the owner of Dashun Warehouse in Zhenbei?"
When Zhao Ziliang heard this, he thought there was something wrong and quickly asked: "Are you sure?"
"Our town is not big, and there are only so many shops doing business.
Although I don't know him very well, I still know him," Fan Ren said with certainty.
Zhao Ziliang thought that the top priority now was to safely deliver the envoy to the governor's house.
However, he was short of manpower.
There were five thieves to guard, and he also had to escort the envoy to the governor's house.
If there were any accomplices of the thieves in the town, he would lead the team After escorting the envoy to the garrison, what should I do if the thieves' accomplices attack the inn again?
Now I can only send someone to the garrison to ask my husband, Meng Lingqi, and ask him to send troops to pick up the envoy.
He immediately said to San Gouzi: "San'er, go to the garrison and ask to see General Fumeng.
Report what just happened to the general.
Please ask the general to send troops to pick up the envoy quickly.
I will lead people to guard here."
"Yes, Brother Liang":
