Chapter 944: Unexpected
However, now that the city is protected, everything is fine.
At least Gu Zizhong feels pretty good.
I feel good about myself, and that's good.
She is a weak woman, and she was able to survive until the arrival of reinforcements, which can be regarded as worthy of her profession.
As the young lady of the Zhu family, she finally did not disgrace the Zhu family.
Indeed, when the people of the city learned that the rebels had escaped, they were so excited that they seemed to see the sun again, and they jumped and jumped in the city, so happy.
The news spread throughout Jinling City, and everyone began to go limp.
Except for the dancing, basically all of them are left limp.
Because everyone is exhausted in order to guard against the rebels and prepare to flee for their lives.
Running for your life is human instinct. Instinct is to exhaust all your strength.
The city was much quieter, and Gu Zizhong didn't hear any more trouble.
Two days later, Wu Yicheng announced that he would behead the other rebels who had been arrested again at Caishikou for public display.
The people were relieved.
Otherwise, you don't have to worry, maybe one day some bastard will set his house on fire.
The rebels are dressed in disguise, which is really terrifying.
Gu Zi saw Tang Xiannan again.
In this battle to defend Jinling City, Tang Xiannan originally planned to escape, but she was a weak woman after all, and she couldn't run if she wanted to.
Other people are mediocre-looking, and if they smear some black charcoal on their faces, they will be able to get away with it at once, saying that they are rebels.
A person like Tang Xiannan, who has been in the palace before, can his temperament be comparable to that of ordinary people?
Even if the rebels are short-sighted, they can see at a glance that this girl is definitely not an ordinary person.
So other people can run, but Tang Xiannan can't.
Tang Xiannan saw Gu Zizhong, and immediately lay in front of Gu Zizhong, and the guy cried darkly.
It means that it is not easy for me to be chased and found here all day long.
Tang Xiannan even pressed herself into the thatch at the back of the house at one point.
It smelled bad, and it didn't get rid of it after taking a shower for three days.
Gu Zizhong was even more difficult, she even had the heart to die.
So the two sisters cried to each other together, and finally found a companion.
Aunt Cui saw that the two of them were crying more than the other, and she was embarrassed to persuade them.
Gu Zi cried heavily, in fact, it was more important to cry for his brother.
It's been four or five days, and my brother hasn't even heard from him.
To live is to see people, and to die is to see corpses.
It can't be without news from my brother.
Gu Zizhong was so anxious that her heart hurt.
Wu Yicheng has been busy with things in the city, so he doesn't have time to accompany Gu Zizhong.
All Gu Zizhong could do was wait, waiting in his own room.
When the general has finished the matter, she can ask questions.
Wu Yicheng finally arranged the affairs of the barracks, and when he came back to find Gu Zizhong, he was almost not criticized to death by Gu Zizhong.
And Tang Xiannan is on the side.
Two women criticize a man, and the scene is awkward.
Gu Zizhong was straightforward and asked if he had found Gu Shizi.
Wu Yicheng didn't think about this at all, why, is there such a person?
Gu Zi was speechless with anger.
Wu Yicheng comforted the two of them and said, "I only brought a few thousand people with me when I came back from this rapid march. We are all cavalry, and we are only in charge of fighting, and we are not in charge of cleaning up the battlefield. ”
In other words, the city should be broken and broken, and it should be broken and broken.
Wu Yicheng came back with his troops and beat off the rebels, and thousands of them went to the barracks.
How should the people outside explain the army?
Are the imperial court's armies so disdainful of the local people?
Gu Zizhong really wanted to give Wu Yicheng a mouthful.
But the thing that made her happy came so suddenly that she was a little unprepared.
Ten days later, when her injuries were almost healed, she went down to the field for a walk.
She went out of the house and went to the street to see that the people were cleaning up the mess, as if they were still preparing to make a fire and cook.
After such a sweep by the rebels, everything in the city seems to have been distorted.
When Gu Zizhong saw this kind of scene, he really burst into tears.
Although the south is prosperous, someone must manage it.
Emperor Chongzhen had already sent all the troops of the Ming Dynasty to the northwest and northeast.
The South is almost empty.
The Guanning Iron Cavalry is powerful, but after all, it is only in the Jinzhou area, north of the Great Wall.
The humid land of the south ensures that the horse's hooves are stuck in and out at once.
This time, the cavalry led by Wu Yicheng was at best a person on a horse, and it was still far from the Guanning Iron Cavalry.
The Jinling Barracks is powerful, but after all, the infantry is a little stronger.
The northeast and northwest of the Ming Dynasty were not at peace, and the southward movement of the Qing army and the troubles of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong had become a major problem for the imperial court.
From time to time, the pirates along the coast give another time, grab something and run away.
Da Ming still has no way to take others.
The troublemakers are very happy, I will run away if I rob it, and you can't do anything about me.
I just like to see you hate me and you can't catch up with me.
The Ming Dynasty is short of manpower, and the country is in crisis.
Jinling City is barely saved, but who knows if it will come back next time?
The rebels are everywhere.
These territories in the south have been left unattended for a long time, and they are almost paralyzed.
Every hill has bandits who have tolls.
What else is this business going to do?
If you don't get to the place, the money on you is gone.
Therefore, the merchants in Jinling City simply stopped leaving, settled down on the spot, begged for a wife, and then got some land.
Therefore, the fixed population of Jinling City has suddenly increased a lot.
Gu Zizhong began to work on the enthronement again.
At this time, good news came, and 10,000 Ming troops came back from outside the city.
Gu Zizhong was still curious, and wanted to go to the barracks in person to ask where these 10,000 people came from.
As a result, I don't know if I don't know, and I'm scared when I go.
As soon as she entered the door of the barracks, she saw her brother standing in the middle of the Ming army.
Brother is back?
Gu Zizhong only shouted excitedly, and immediately rushed over.
As if he was going to fight, Gu Zizhong rushed in front of his brother and punched and kicked him.
Although Gu Shizi felt pain, he couldn't bear it.
Gu Zi was tired from kicking, so he lay in his brother's arms and bit his arm.
He held back.
Gu Zizhong questioned him: "Where have you been for so many days?" ”
Gu Shizi stroked her head like a child, and said softly, "Zizhong, don't be sad." Your brother and I have nothing to do. Am I not coming back?"
Gu Zizhong looked him up and down, it was true. My brother was in perfect condition.
