 A burst of excited applause broke out among the crowd, and even the more than 10,000 people behind Diao Guang also let out a burst of cheers. Murong Lan said in a deep voice: "Jingkou is the source of troops for the Jin Dynasty.

, since the southern crossing, for hundreds of years, generations of refugees from the south have settled here. They enjoy tax exemptions and immunity that are not available to people elsewhere. They also have to go out for the country and fight against foreign enemies and internal thieves. Every inch of mountains and rivers here is worth every inch of blood.

The land of loyalty is also the last hope of the Jin Dynasty. If Jingkou is there, the Jin Dynasty will be there. If Jingkou is lost, the Jin Dynasty will be destroyed. I was born in the north. I heard this sentence when I first learned about the world. How could it be that even the people of Jingkou in the Jin Dynasty

, don’t you even understand this?”

A sinister voice sounded from the crowd, with a hint of weirdness: "But now there are no strong men in Jingkou, only old, weak, women and children. How can we expect these people to defend Jingkou? Zang Aiqin, if your man is here, of course we don't have to run away."

, but where are they now?"

Murong Lan laughed: "There are not only men in Jingkou, but also women. We men in Jingkou have to go out all year round, and only women at home farm and hunt. Although the country is tax-free, all survival must be done with our own hands. We

Jingkou women are not as pampered as those official ladies in Jiankang City, but are hard-working and hard-working. In Jingkou, even women can work in the fields and hunt in the mountains. Who says that we Jingkou women are inferior to men?"

A burst of cheers broke out from the crowd, Diao Guang's face turned red, and he said sternly: "Crazy, you are all crazy, how can you stop those hundreds of thousands of demon thieves just by you? This is no joke!"

A dull sound of drum horns came from the river more than ten miles away. Diao Guang's expression changed drastically, and he looked in the direction of the drum horns. It was already midnight, the spring was bright and cloudless, and he could clearly see the distance in the distance.

On the surface of the river, countless warships came, almost filling the entire wide river, and the singing voice, like the waves crashing on the shore, was clear and shook everyone's heart:

"The divine man holds a stick, the beautiful woman opens an account, conquers Jingkou, and changes to Beifu!"

Diao Guang's face was pale, even whiter than every Jingkou woman standing here. He lay on his horse and shouted: "The demon thief is coming. If you don't retreat, you will die. I have informed you."

!”

As he spoke, he drove his horse back. He almost lay on the horse's back and could no longer stand up. All the hundreds of men he brought with him followed him and fled towards the Jiuxiang River.

They were heading in the direction and disappeared within a short time. The other two thousand or so soldiers and sergeants who were recruited from Jingkou stood there at a loss and didn't know what to do.

As Diao Guang took the lead in escaping, there was a commotion in the crowd. Many villagers who had been excited before changed their faces. Many people picked up their burdens, turned the front of the cart, and wanted to

Escape towards Jiankang City.

Murong Lan jumped onto a small mound on the side, her energy sinking into her Dantian, and her tongue bursting with spring thunder. Her voice, with the abundant energy, allowed everyone within a few miles to hear clearly: "Jingkou's

Young and old men, brothers and sisters, please don't panic, listen to me and then make a decision, okay?"

The crowd gradually became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on Murong Lan. She turned back and pointed to the river, and said in a deep voice: "What is coming to us is the fleet of demon thieves. They have

Thousands of warships and hundreds of thousands of people came to kill them all the way. There was nothing left but corpses everywhere. In the past few years, they destroyed almost every village and township in Wu, even the newborns.

Even babies cannot escape their poisonous hands. Everyone must know these things. Tell me, are you very scared now?"

The crowd fell into silence for a while. Yes, everyone would be afraid when faced with such a ferocious monster thief, especially in this situation. Even the chief of the town was so scared that he fled without a fight, and his own man was thousands of miles away, and he

How to avoid making people panic?

Murong Lan continued: "But as I just said, this is Jingkou. There are only warriors here and no common people. If even the people of Jingkou cannot protect their hometown, then where can Dajin be safe? Tianshi Tao

The demon thieves move quickly, as fast as rabbits, and as ruthless as tigers and wolves. Everyone is unarmed, so where can we go? Even if we go to Jiankang, the demon thieves will follow us to attack the city. If Jiankang is lost, the world will be so big.

Where can we stay? We all left home empty-handed, without even solid food. When this time tomorrow comes, we will have to take care of our family, and what will we have to feed our family, our children, and ourselves?”

The crowd began to talk about it: "Yes, tomorrow, we will eat and drink whatever we want."

The strange voice that appeared at the beginning sounded again from a corner: "When we arrive in Jiankang, there is an official warehouse of the imperial court, and they will recruit strong men to defend the city. How come there is no food?"

Murong Lan laughed loudly: "If Jingkou is lost, the demon thief will arrive in Jiankang within a day. Look at the way our Lord Changshi escaped. The children of the aristocratic families in Jiankang City will only run faster than him, no.

There will be people organizing defenses, and no one will open warehouses to put food in. Once the demon thieves take Jingkou, we will either starve to death or be massacred and raped by the demon thieves. The losses they suffered in front of our men will be doubled.

The earth takes revenge on us women. These are the nature of monsters and thieves. Don’t you know? Dajin is thousands of miles away, but we have nowhere to retreat, because this is Jingkou!"

A burst of cheers erupted from the crowd, but the cold voice changed its direction and laughed strangely: "Sister-in-law, even if you come up with a trick, there is no way to rely on these without equipment.

, and untrained common people and women are going to face the monster thieves who are like wolves and tigers. Now, they have begun to land ashore. If they don't run away, they will all die!"

Murong Lan's face sank and she said loudly: "I don't care who you are or what your purpose is. If you don't want to fight, you can leave now. Don't confuse people here. Who said we don't have equipment? Who said Jingkou doesn't have it?"

Soldiers, look, what is this?!"

She pointed at a tall building, which was the barn in Liujia Village. Everyone was about to speak when suddenly, the walls of the barn, which covered hundreds of steps, collapsed, and the huge

The interior was displayed in front of everyone. There was no food inside, but it was filled with armor as high as a hill, and a large number of weapons, bundles, were placed in an orderly manner, with their blades exposed, in the sunlight.

Under the illumination, it is enough to blind people's eyes.
