206: Eviction Order(1/2)
Once Bingzhou is lost, the Huns will attack Yuzhou again and will be able to go south to Huikang in an instant.
Everyone's hearts were deep. I wonder what the little emperor who was far away in Huikang would think at this time. The military newspaper that was expedited by eight hundred miles was sent to Huikang. When the little emperor saw it, he would regret causing the soldiers and generals of the Jin Dynasty to fight in Youzhou for their own selfishness!
At this time, the officials of Jinyang felt relieved when they heard the words of Gu Governor Gu. If this person had abandoned the city like King Zhao and fled, how could Bingzhou have withstood the repeated troubles?
"The subordinate official obeys the orders of the emperor and will do his best to overcome difficulties together." Everyone spoke in unison.
Gu Jun felt a little relieved. Since the Gu family entered Bingzhou, they have both kindness and power, and it has been somewhat effective at this time. At least these people still follow orders in person. Even if some people are not afraid of being caught by him, they will inevitably deal with it heavily to serve as a warning to others.
The governor's mansion was busy, and the various departments were busy with documents. The most fortunate thing for everyone was to follow the governor's order to harvest in advance in autumn, and most of the grain was put into the granary, otherwise I was afraid I would regret it now.
The Huns chose to go south at this time, and they were afraid that they would also want to grab grain. Unfortunately, the governor took the first step in the first chess and snatched the harvest in advance.
Gu Jun brought several confidants into the inner hall, stared at the map on the wall, and pointed out: "The enemy's besiege of Jinyang is just an appearance. Yesterday, he besieged the city, but he has not yet attacked the city today, so I'm afraid he has other plans."
Gu Yishu said from the side: "My son is worried about Yangyi. If the Huns attack Yangyi first, it will not be good news for Jinyang."
"The young master said it makes sense. Jinyang City is hard, easy to defend but difficult to attack, but Yangyi is just a small city. If you want to destroy the junction between Yangyi and Jinyang, attacking Yangyi first is the best strategy."
"That's right, once Yangyi is broken, Jinyang will be lonely, which is equivalent to cutting off the passage from Huzhou to Jinyang. Therefore, sir, Yangyi must never be broken."
Everyone spoke, and the analysis was reasonable.
"Father, Wuxiang is only a hundred miles away from Yangyi, and even if the infantry moves quickly, they can arrive in one day. Now the guard of Wuxiang is Zhang Hu, who is the emperor's uncle. If Zhang Hu rushes to Yangyi and Jinyang assists, Yangyi will definitely be able to defend."
Um?
What is the emperor’s uncle’s man who guards Wuxiang?
Everyone looked at each other, who could know this?
But at this moment, everyone was surprised. The emperor's uncle was famous and had a large group of generals under his command. Although they had never heard of Zhang Hu's name, they would definitely not be a mediocre person if they could be released and placed in Wuxiang.
Oh, in this way, the emperor is very concerned about the Gu family's marriage. He even left someone in Yuzhou, which is clearly the one who protects Gu.
The emperor’s reputation is so great. Knowing that the emperor’s uncle is there, everyone’s heart is a little relaxed and there are too many smiles on their faces.
Gu Jun and his son looked at each other and calmly withdrew their gaze.
Although the ancestors of the Gu family were very famous, they had been sleeping in firewood and tasting gall for many years. Their power in Bingzhou was not as good as before. At this time, the strong enemy came to the city, which was just the name of the Gu family, which obviously could not make these officials feel at ease.
In order to stabilize them, Gu Yishu deliberately told Zhang Hu's origin, and the effect was indeed amazing.
After calming the hearts of the people and sending everyone away, the Gu family and his son sat down and spoke.
"Father, Yangyi must be defended. Not only Yangyi, but Qixian also needs to be more prepared. If Qixian falls into the enemy, it will only take one day to go from Qixian to Qinxian. If Qiang and Hunu reach an alliance and join forces, it will only take one day to arrive at Tongliu from Anding County, and then to Tunliu. The eldest son will only be two days. At that time, Guzhou is everywhere under the military peak, and it will be in danger."
Gu's father naturally knew the pros and cons, and looked at his son, "We must never let the Huns or Qiang and Hu borrow from Anding County, so we must inform the Li family to join forces to fight the enemy."
This marriage is really good. At this time, with the Li family helping to guard the important road of stability, they don’t have to worry about being attacked by their backs.
Gu Yishu nodded, "Even if it is not for Bingzhou, but for the future of Anding County, the Li family will not allow Qiang and Hu to use Anding County. Both of them will benefit from the two families. The Li family will not refuse."
Gu's father took the letter to An Ding himself, and Gu Yishu went out to set up defenses. At this time, Gu Qingyi did not expect that Mrs. Pei brought Pei Yunsong to the door.
Mrs. Pei was arrogant and wanted to ask the Gu family to send troops to escort them back to Hedong. Even Gu's mother was very handsome and her face looked extremely ugly at this time.
Gu Qingyi sat with her, kneeling straight behind the desk, and looked at the Pei family's mother and daughter with a smile. Pei Yunsong had never looked at her directly since she came in. She was so arrogant and asked for anyone.
If you ask someone, you look kind, who can give you the courage?
"Madam Pei, I am just a woman in the inner house and don't understand what's outside. I don't understand what you said. If you want to go back to Hedong, just let the people from Hedong come to pick you up. We will definitely see you off." Gu's mother suppressed her anger and smiled, pretending not to understand Mrs. Pei's words.
Mrs. Pei frowned, her fair face was a little angry, and she spoke with some disdain, "Mrs. Gu, you know the situation outside the city now, and you don't know when people will arrive when you send a letter back to Hedong. Besides, I left Jinyang with Yunsong now to avoid causing trouble for Governor Gu. Do you think so? After all, if we mother and daughter make a mistake in Jinyang, it is hard for Governor Gu to explain to the Pei family."
Gu Qingyi couldn't help it, and chuckled and said slowly, "Mrs. Pei's words are really interesting. You are not invited by the Gu family in Jinyang, and the Pei family has not submitted a famous post to the governor's mansion. Naturally, your safety is protected by the Pei family. What does it have to do with the Gu family?"
"Miss Gu is young and energetic after all, and can't tell the difference..."
"What you said is that I am young and energetic, at least I know it is wrong. Mrs. Pei is so old, why aren't she as good as me?" Gu Qingyi looked at Mrs. Pei with a serious face. "After hearing what my wife said, I realized what it means to be the best and the lower. No wonder Girl Pei went to Yuzhou to see me last time, and wanted to steal my marriage and looked like she was kind and me. It turned out that it was a family origin."
"you……"
"Zhanxia, see off the guests!" Gu Qingyi suddenly stood up and looked down at the Pei mother and daughter, "Madam Pei, Miss Pei is going all the way, I'm not far away to see you!"
Gu's mother didn't say anything after her daughter spoke. She knew that her daughter was very angry, otherwise she would never have been so rude.
However, Mrs. Gu did not intend to give Mrs. Pei and her daughter a step down, lower her head to drink tea, and remain indifferent.
Pei Yunsong's face finally changed at this moment. His eyes faded away and showed his sharpness. He stared at Gu Qingyi and said, "Girl Gu, the Huns are known as a 100,000 army. Can Jinyang defend the city alone? If you get the support from Hedong, it will definitely be like a tiger. Why do you have to be so mean?"
Gu Qingyi sneered, "Girl Pei, the wise man doesn't say secret words, even for the sake of marriage with the emperor's uncle. I'm afraid that you and the Pei family will not wish that the Gu family will be killed by the Huns to clear the way for you. If it is as you said, the Pei family in Hedong supports Jinyang, why don't there be any news? I advise you to avoid these bad thoughts. If you and Mrs. Pei want to leave as soon as possible, Jinyang will be closed down. Once the city is closed, no one will leave without authorization. If there is a conflict at that time, it will inevitably be unfair, right?"
Mrs. Pei didn't expect that Gu Qingyi was so tough and so arrogant. How could the emperor agree to this family? Yes, it's really hard to understand!
Mrs. Pei was so angry that she trembled all over. She used to be known as the Pei family, but she was flattered by others. She was always defeated when she met the Gu family.
Pei Yunsong had experienced Gu Qingyi's temperament. He knew that she did what she said, and immediately supported her mother and said, "Mother, let's go. Since the Gu family disdained that Pei's friendship was good, why should we make things difficult for others?"
Gu Qingyi immediately retorted, "The marriage is for the purpose of getting along with each other. People who have to be robbed from the city to escape and still have to be robbed respectfully. It's really strange. I'm blaming my shallow knowledge. I have never heard such shameless words."
Pei Yunsong:...
Mrs. Pei had never been so humiliated. She was so angry that she almost fainted when she turned black.
Pei Yunsong, with a dark face, forced her mother to straighten her back and walked out. OK, okay, they remember the humiliation today!
As soon as the Pei family's mother and daughter left, Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter and said, "Is this a bit too much?"
"I did this on purpose and asked them to get out of here quickly, otherwise if they really fight, if they are unwilling to pass on the message, this will be the biggest disaster."
The Pei family is a large family. The Pei family and the daughter stay in the city. The Gu family cannot take people as prisoners. If they use their own channels to send out news from Jinyang City, this is the most troublesome.
As long as the Pei family and his daughter leave, the Fan family will definitely not dare to act rashly, otherwise if the mother and daughter persuade Fan Jun to join forces, that would be fatal.
If you can't fight or kill, you can only drive people away.
After hearing what his daughter said, Gu's mother was even more worried, "How did the Huns attack Jinyang well? There was no news before."
Gu Qingyi didn't know that this Xiongnu army bypassed Yangqu and came from Jiaocheng, and Qingxu approached Jinyang. The road was a bit far away, and it was really troublesome to attack Jinyang.
The war in Youzhou was said to be a alliance of Hu. Now it seems that at least the Huns have other plans. I wonder if it was a joint battle with Youzhou.
The Huhus held the emperor's uncle in Youzhou, was it because they were to facilitate the Xiongnu's surprise attack on Jinyang and wanted to take down Bingzhou?
Gu Qingyi was worried, but she didn't want Gu's mother to worry, so she comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Jinyang is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it's not that easy to conquer."
Gu's mother was indeed relieved and her face improved.
To comfort his mother, Gu Qingyi also asked someone to stare at the whereabouts of the Pei family and his daughter. Sure enough, they left before going to the Fan family. After staying for half an hour, they hurried out of the city with the Pei family's troops.
The person who came back to report also said that the Fan family sent a group of hundreds of people to escort the Pei family's mother and daughter.
Gu Qingyi was not surprised. The mother and daughter were very afraid of death, so naturally the more people they were escorting, the better.
In this way, the relationship between the Fan family and the Pei family needs to be more cautious.
The only thing that is, Bingzhou's autumn harvest was early, and most of the grain was entered into the granary. The Huns came later and could only grab some leftovers.
***
Wu Bin stood on the not-tall city tower and looked out, and the darkness was full of the Hun soldiers preparing to attack the city.
The autumn harvest day is extremely hot, but today it is stuffy and tide, with strong winds occasionally rolling up.
Since the day before yesterday, the Hun soldiers have been constantly attacking the city. Countless soldiers cannot tell the difference between the enemy and us, lying on the land under the city, with their limbs broken, intestines rotten, and their deaths are very terrifying.
The surviving soldiers were not much better. They were covered in blood and could still leave. They were still on the top of the city and were seriously injured and sent to the city for treatment. The endless fatigue and dull pain, and the enemy troops who were ready to move outside the city, gradually lost their confidence.
These Huns were fearless and fought in uninterrupted shifts from morning to night, while their defenders only had thousands of troops. Their hard battles and casualties in the past two days caused them to lose a lot of manpower.
The dark enemy troops under the city are like Yama who seeks life, making people feel desperate.
"The county magistrate is here."
I don’t know who shouted, and saw a clear figure walking out of the city wall soon. He looked at everyone and shouted loudly: “I have asked for help from Jinyang. The governor loves the people as if he were a son and will definitely send reinforcements. We will hold on for another three days. For the sake of the family, country, people, and for our family, we must not retreat. I will never take a step back when I am with you.”
The words of Yangyi County Magistrate immediately made everyone's eyes shine. Yes, the current governor of Jinyang is Lord Gu, not the timid King Zhao, and they still have hope.
Wu Bin grinned his teeth, and the wound on his back was pulled, making his face a little ferocious. Looking at the soldier who was still drooping his eyes, he mustered up his courage again, and he smiled at the county magistrate.
Their county magistrate is of great origin. He was born in Pingyuan Fahrenheit. Although he is a branch, he was also condescending to be a small county magistrate when he came here to be a small county magistrate.
Although I don’t know why Hua Chao came here to be the county magistrate, the two of them have been happy in the past few years and their relationship is pretty good.
While everyone was happy, Wu Bin walked over and said softly: "Sir, are you really asking for help?"
Hua Chao knew that he could not hide it, so he smiled bitterly and didn't say anything.
Wu Bin didn't understand anything, but in fact he also knew that Jinyang was besieged and the Huns were known as a 100,000 army. Jinyang could not protect himself, so there was no extra force to support them.
Wu Bin is not from a high school background, and it is already over the end of being able to become a county magistrate, but he knows that Hua Chao is different. He is a member of the Hua family. As long as he is willing, he can go higher.
But he has been staying in Yangyi for so many years, and he can't understand it, and he doesn't know why.
Finally, he couldn't help but whisper: "With the opportunity now, I'll send you out of the city and walk through the north gate. If you're late, you really can't leave."
When Hua Chao heard this, his elegant and handsome facial features were covered with a layer of frost. He looked at Wu Bin and said, "I am not a greedy person who is afraid of death. You underestimate me."
"I don't mean that, I just feel sorry, if your knowledge and ability are lost here..."
"You don't need to say anything more. I will not leave this city and escape alone." Hua Chao turned around and looked outside the city, with a raging fire in his dark eyes.
The drums sounded outside the city again and the enemy began to attack the city again.
