Chapter 291: Mountain Rain is Coming (2)

Zhao Qing also looked at Li Ziyu in shock, and asked in disbelief, "Really?" ”

Li Ziyu nodded heavily: "According to reliable information, the war will start sooner or later." Grandpa, I'm just worried that our place is too close to the border, if I mean that if the soldiers and horses of the imperial court can't resist it, we will bear the brunt of it and become a place where the Liao army tramples on it. I mean, grandpa, if you see that the people in our village have relatives who can take refuge, don't you take precautions as soon as possible?"

Zhao Qing completely shocked Li Ziyu by the news, his head buzzed for a while, and he waved his hand and said, "You wait a while, let me think about it"

Li Ziyu comforted: "Grandpa, maybe I'm thinking too much." But I think it's better to plan ahead, and it's better to be prepared than to deal with it hastily. If you think about it slowly, then I'll go back first. ”

Grandma Zhao was so panicked that she didn't have the heart to send Li Ziyu, so she kept muttering "What can I do" and "Where are I going".

Li Ziyu came out of the old village chief's house and walked home with a heavy heart, very worried about the upcoming war.

Listening to Bu Jiu, the Liao State stationed 150,000 soldiers on the border of Baishan City, while the Daye Dynasty only had 50,000 soldiers and horses in Baishan City, and the difference in strength was too great.

Ren Changqing, the general of Zhaowu stationed in Baishan City, wrote to the imperial court several times to ask for reinforcements of troops and horses, but to no avail, there was no follow-up.

150,000 against 50,000, even if Ren Changqing is resourceful, brave and good at fighting, and commands properly, he is only flesh and blood, how can 50,000 soldiers and horses resist the iron hooves of the 150,000 of the Liao State.

It is said that the Liao State has recuperated in recent years. The soldiers have gone through the horses, and the national strength has become much stronger. Moreover, the Liao army is good at fighting immediately, and every soldier can be ten with one. Very tough.

On the other hand, in the Daye Dynasty, officials at all levels of the imperial court were keen to form gangs and intrigue with each other, and most of the generals were caught in factional disputes, and no one had the intention of training soldiers and horses.

The combat effectiveness of the imperial court soldiers and horses and the Liao army are not at the same level at all, if the imperial court does not increase its troops in the war, then defeat will be a matter of time.

She can't worry about the major affairs of the court as a small ordinary person, but. At present, if he is defeated, his home will be reduced to a place where the Liao army and soldiers and horses trample on at will.

Although his home is built strong enough, how can he compete with an army of more than 100,000? Isn't that an egg hitting a stone?

Although he also dug an underground passage himself. The place is private enough. But that's also based on the condition that the house can be preserved, that place can be called safe.

If you can't keep your own house, the secret door you left in the house can be discovered soon. The so-called safe place is the least safe.

It seems that he must arrange a relatively safe place for his younger siblings. The stakes are too high here. It's so unsafe.

Li Ziyu walked home while thinking, and when she arrived at home, it was already completely dark.

As soon as she entered the courtyard gate, Li Ziyu gave way to Bu Jiu to intercept her and led her to the livestock shed in the east.

Li Ziyu knew that Bu Jiu must have bought a horse today, and asked as she walked, "How many did you buy?" ”

"I bought twelve of them, all of them were good Mongolian horses." Step 9 back to the road.

Today, Bu Jiu was also in a hurry, and he ran into a horse dealer who jumped to his feet in frustration.

Shiyan Town is close to the border. The military often procures horses, so. The city of mules and horses is very prosperous.

In order to make huge profits, horse dealers from all over the country often traveled back and forth to the small princely states in the northwest to smuggle horses.

In the depths of the northwest, there are endless grasslands and deserts. The inhabitants there raised mules and horses for a living, and the horse dealers of the Daya Dynasty were mutually beneficial, exchanging horses for daily necessities.

Today's horse dealer may have heard some rumors, and the twelve Mongolian horses that were newly sold from the northwest were willing to be sold at a low price.

However, his abnormal behavior made a group of horse buyers dare not ask for it, for fear that there is something strange in it.

When Bu Jiu arrived at the horse market, he heard the horse dealer swear in a hurry to sell his horses.

Bujiu had been in the army and knew a thing or two about horses. He examined each of the twelve horses carefully, and found nothing wrong with them, so he came out and bought them.

Twelve horses cost a total of two hundred taels of silver, which is a very strange thing.

What's even more strange is that the horse dealer took the silver and said to Bu Jiu: "Brother, hurry up and go south, you can't stay here." ”

After speaking, he hurriedly jumped into the carriage next to him, and drove the carriage to the south of the town without stopping.

This situation aroused Bu Jiu's vigilance, and he drove the twelve horses to the back of the Riri Red Restaurant, and hurriedly reported the situation to Ren Xiaohang.

Since the last reminder of Step 9, Ren Xiaohang has focused on whether the forces under the Sun family are underground. The radius around the Sun family has made him scatter his eyes, but so far he has not found any clues.

This can only show one problem, the Sun family has not moved, and it has been completely hidden. If there is a little movement, Ren Xiaohang will be able to find out all the forces underground.

Now, based on the situation mentioned by Bu Jiu, Ren Xiaohang has determined that a war involving the life and death of tens of thousands of border people is inevitable.

What made him sad was that the imperial court had not sent a single soldier to the border so far. I'm afraid that the emperor in the capital is still struggling with whether the Ren family is credible, and he doesn't take the soldiers and horses of the border Liao State in his eyes.

He may have thought that his position was more important than letting the Liao State occupy a few cities and kill and injure tens of thousands of people.

The lost city can be regained, and the dead and wounded people are not as good as ants in his eyes, and they are not enough to worry about at all.

However, he can't watch his uncle become cannon fodder like this, he must save his uncle's life. Even if his behavior is a little disobedient, he can't care about it.

So, he commanded with a blushing face: "Step one! You take fifty people to Baishan City and tell General Ren to pay attention to the movements of the Liao army. After you go, you will assist General Ren to resist the Liao army, and at the critical moment, you must protect him and bring him back safely! ”

"Yes!" Buyi received the order and hurriedly led people to set off.

Ren Xiaohang knew that sending these fifty people over was also a drop in the bucket, and it didn't play the slightest role. However, he didn't have too many people at hand, and he couldn't sit idly by and do nothing.

These fifty people are all secret guards of the Ren family, and they are loyal to the Ren family. I hope they can protect Uncle and save his life.

Uncle Ren Changqing is the most outstanding figure of the Ren family, Wen Tao is strategic, wise and brave, shrewd and wise, and has a heart, and is the soul of the Ren family. He did not allow the uncle to die on the battlefield of Yuzhong, although the people of Baishan City were innocent, and the soldiers should spill blood on the battlefield and do their best for the court, but that was on the basis of the credibility of the court.

He also knew that even if he sent Buyi, he couldn't stop the uncle's action of sacrificing his life for the people as a soldier. He just wants to save his uncle's life at a critical moment, that's all.

After Bu Jiu told Ren Xiaohang the news, he drove back with twelve horses.

Before he came back, he also asked Hebu Shi to return to the team, because he saw that there were too few people available in front of his master, so he basically sent them out.

This time, even Bu Yi was sent out, Bu Er was not in front of him, the master was in front of him, and none of the secret guards of the Ren family were left, how could this work?

However, the master gave a death order, and he must ensure the safety of the Li family, and there must be no mistakes. He had no choice but to come back reluctantly and continue to complete the task assigned by his master.

Now, on the way to the livestock shed, Bu Jiu told Li Ziyu the situation in detail, so that she could be prepared.
