Cheng Zongyang didn't ask any more questions for the moment and immediately moved the corpses in the sacks into the small courtyard. After he was done, before Cheng Zongyang could even ask, Li Lu spoke up first.
"Sorry, something urgent came up and I was delayed! I ran all the way here. Also, something big has happened!
Early this morning, the County Magistrate received an urgent message from the Commandery City. It said the Thirteen Royal Families dispatched a surprise force of Upper Three Grades Martial Artists. They launched a surprise attack on Dan Yang County Town, which is just before Qianye Commandery City. After seizing the city gates, they conquered Dan Yang overnight.
Dan Yang is the County Town closest to Qianye Prefecture. Beyond it, the terrain is a flat plain all the way to Qianye Commandery City! Qianye Prefecture is in danger!
