Chapter 8 Urgent, Online Waiting

Following an order, the gates of Defan Royal City were opened, and thousands of people poured into the city.

As the capital of Jinan, there were originally hundreds of thousands of people living in Jinan. When they saw the city being destroyed, they all fled to the royal city and crowded beside the moat under the royal city. The moment the four gates of the royal city opened, it was like

Thousands of people poured into the royal city like a tide.

"Wudi, you go to guard the Tiren Gate. Qian Degong, you go to the Zunyi Gate. Sun Zhi, you go to the Guangzhi Gate..."

As the people poured into the royal city, Zhu Guoqiang was making arrangements one by one on the arrow tower.

"You all keep an eye on the city gate. Once the Qing army is a hundred... or ten feet away from the gate, immediately cut down the Qianjin Gate! Then block the city gate with earth and rocks!"

Although he had never led an army, let alone fought in a war, Zhu Guoqiang had read some novels and watched some movies, and he always knew that the city gate was the weakest link, so the city gate must be blocked.

"Yes, I will obey your orders!"

When the three of them bowed their heads and accepted their orders, Chen Changgeng, the chief official of the palace, said.

"What about Duanlimen?"

Duanli Gate is the main entrance to the royal city, and the Qing army also entered from the south gate. They will definitely fight all the way to Duanli Gate.

"I'll keep it!"

After spitting out these two words, Zhu Guoqiang bowed to them again.

"From now on, I'll be relying on you all!"

"Your Highness, you are welcome!"

Facing the crown prince's bow, they all bowed in return, and then immediately rushed to each door. After they left, Zhu Guoqiang sat motionless in front of the case.

"Your Highness..."

"Um?"

"Can you hold on?"

Zhu Guoqiang did not answer his question, he just looked at him and asked.

"How many soldiers are there in the mansion?"

"Fifteen hundred ceremonial guardsmen, and 800 tomb-guarding soldiers transferred from Zongling before the siege..."

As the chief official of the palace, Chen Changgeng naturally knew how many people there were in the palace.

"Well, two thousand three hundred people! That's quite a lot. Since Governor Zhu can hold on for more than 60 days with 500 old and weak rural soldiers and 700 soldiers reinforced by Laizhou, then two thousand three hundred people can still do it no matter how bad the situation is.

Just wait for two months."

The prince's words made Chen Changgeng stunned for a moment, and then he opened his mouth but said nothing. Not only were there more than a thousand soldiers guarding Jinan, but there were also tens of thousands of Jinan's men! Besides, the official soldiers in the mansion... usually were just

It's just a guard of honor. As for the soldiers guarding the mausoleum, well... they are not as good as country soldiers.

"What about two months from now?"

Two months...two months later, the Qing army retreated on its own. During the Chongzhen period, the Qing army invaded for the purpose of plundering and destroying the war potential of the northern Ming Dynasty. Of course, there is absolutely no need to say these words.

"It's nothing more than success and becoming a benevolent person! Chief, please go down first to appease the people who are entering the city, and select young men to let them go to the city."

"But, there are no weapons in the house!"

"I'll figure this out. You first call all the strong men to the city!"

After leaving these words, Zhu Guozhan stood up and walked towards the gallery of the archery tower. Then he stood there with his eyebrows furrowed, staring at the crowd under the city gate. But more often than not, his eyes were

Stare ahead.

city!

Already broken!

Although the heavy snow blocked his sight, the burning gate tower of the city wall in the distance undoubtedly reminded him of the fact that the city was broken!

"well……"

With a long sigh, Zhu Guoqiang's eyes flashed with worry.

Think of ways to?

What can I do?

If he couldn't hold on, then the people in this city would be completely ruined. Of course, he could still escape to another time and space, but...should he just watch them die here?

Thinking of this, he turned around and returned to the room a little upset, with only one thought left in his heart - what to do next?

The memory of home flashed through his mind, and Zhu Guoqiang once again felt the slight numbness, accompanied by slight dizziness, and then stumbled and fell in the living room.

"I...vomit!"

I don't know if it was because of the sequelae of time travel or some other reason? Zhu Guoqiang only felt a little uncomfortable and his stomach was churning. When he felt a strong sense of vomiting, he hurriedly ran into the bathroom nearby.

After holding the toilet and vomiting for a while, he muttered in confusion.

"Is it because you travel too frequently? Just like driving a car, you will get motion sickness if you travel too much?"

When Zhu Guoqiang was confused, the sudden ringing startled him.

A call from the company?

It wasn't until this moment that Zhu Guoqiang realized that he had forgotten to go to work.

However, now that I am also a rich man, I still need to be a grandchild for a mere few thousand dollars every month!

I quit!

Although I was full of pride in my heart, the moment I answered the phone, the previous enthusiasm suddenly turned into a spring breeze and drizzle.

"Hey, Mr. Sun is looking for me? Did you drink too much? No, you really didn't drink too much. Thank you for your concern. I, I will go to the company right away..."

When the words came to his lips, Zhu Guoqiang suddenly realized.

That’s not right! I, my identity is different now!

I am now a dignified prince!

I had something in mind, and when I saw that the other end of the phone hadn't hung up yet, I immediately said loudly.

"Tell that woman surnamed Sun that... I'm quitting! Yes, I'll fire her!"

Cool!

The moment he hung up the phone, Zhu Guoqiang just wanted to look up to the sky and laugh.

This feeling... is so good!

Fire the boss!

Once upon a time, this was his dream... Today, this little wish finally came true!

"Oh, from now on, uncle, I don't have to worry about my livelihood anymore! My brother is also a rich man!"

Feeling proud, Zhu Guoqiang fumbled around in his bag for a while and took out his cigarette and lighter.

Take out a cigarette and light it.

"Um……"

He took a deep breath of the cigarette and slowly opened his closed eyes. Although the cigarette was still the cigarette he was used to, it had a smell that he had never smoked before, but what was certain was that the smell was very special.

Comfortable.

Maybe, this is freedom!

Maybe, money is not everything.

But money does bring freedom! Financial freedom!

The feeling of freedom is indeed good!

What to do next?

Zhu Guoqiang was sitting on the balcony, watching the cars passing by on the street, and the woman's words came to mind again.

"If the city is destroyed, I will be martyred..."

Martyrdom!

How could a man sit back and watch the city fall and the people being slaughtered!

I even thought of what a guy surnamed Yan said proudly on TV, "plundering 460,000 people and animals."

No!

Thinking of that person's face and the people in the city, Zhu Guoqiang's heart tightened, and while worried, he murmured to himself.

"What should we do now?"

After thinking for a while, Zhu Guoqiang picked up his cell phone, entered the forum where people often flooded his phone, and posted a post.
