The rushing horseshoe clatters broke the peaceful morning of Shanhai County as the two horses galloped on the commerce street. The troops reached the black tortoise gate and shouted, "Open the gates, there's urgent military matters!"
The ones defending the black tortoise gates were also city protection unit members, and seeing that they were the members protecting the north gate, they immediately ordered to open the city gates.
Going past the black tortoise gate, the cavalry split up. One went left into the barracks and the other continued straight to the lord's manor. He got off the horse and slammed on the door. "Open up! Quickly open up!"
The guard opened the door. "Who’s knocking?"
"Quick, bring me to the lord, there are urgent military matters!" The cavalry said anxiously. He didn't dare to be slow, asking the cavalry to wait in the hall before running toward the backyard.
Ouyang Shuo received the information and rushed to the meeting hall.
