Huang Hua, Zhi Yongshou, Kui Yinghao and others watched from the sidelines, their expressions were sad, and their mood was even more solemn.

Although Zhi Yongshou and more than 1,000 soldiers broke through this time, the losses of the righteous soldiers in the rivers and lakes were too heavy. The top players are almost dead.

This undoubtedly makes the situation in Dechangle County even more unfavorable.

After the bodies of the righteous people in the rivers and lakes were incinerated, Huang Hua handed over the city defense to Zhi Yongshou and went to the Zicheng Mansion.

Zicheng is the real power center of Changle County. It does not occupy a wide area, but the top yamen of Fuzhou, as well as the most powerful ministers, live here.

Although it was late at night, the palace was still brightly lit.

In the stormy situation of Changle County, from the powerful ministers to the common people, few people can sleep peacefully.

Fujian Road Jiedu made Lian Liming sit in the main hall of the mansion, and he did not feel sleepy at all.

He hadn't slept for two nights, and his eyes were bloodshot and worried.

This Changle County is really precarious.

He is not afraid of death, and he is even ready to sacrifice his life for the country. It's just that Changle County is broken, which is almost the same as the East Gate of the Great Song Dynasty, and he is worthy of the grace of the Holy Grace.

Until now, Lian Liming remembers that scene clearly in his heart.

At that time, he was just a mere envoy of Fujian Lutingzhou. Mo said that in the entire Fujian Road, even in Tingzhou, he was not a powerful minister.

And he has always been reluctant to become inflammatory, and he is even more faintly ostracized by the rest of the officials.

Someone once joked that the Tingzhou Cao Yun envoy was just a night wanderer.

But on that day, it was less than two months after the change of day in Fujian. The military aircraft ordered Wen Tianxiang to go to Lian Liming's house in person.

At that time, although Lian Liming was surprised why Wen Tianxiang would come in person, he only thought that Wen Tianxiang was here to make him express his position. After all, Fujian is no longer the Fujian of the Pu family.

So Lian Liming didn't wait for Wen Tianxiang to ask, and bluntly said that he had no intention of officialdom.

Over the years, the enthusiasm and the heart of helping the country and the people have finally been beaten to the ground in front of the unbearable reality.

He was already dead-hearted.

After Wen Tianxiang heard his words, his smile was only stronger, and he said: "I have heard that Lian Caoyun is upright and dedicated to the people, it is really better to meet than to meet." ”

Then he smiled and took out a roll of Huang Tongtong's holy decree from his sleeve.

Wen Tianxiang put this volume of holy decree next to Lian Liming, and only said: "The emperor said, this decree, Lian Caoyun will not accept it, it is all up to your own will." ”

Then he got up and left Lian Liming's house like this.

Lian Liming looked at the holy decree in a daze, and even forgot to send Wen Tianxiang.

When he came back to his senses, Wen Tianxiang's figure was already far away.

Lian Liming opened Zhao Dongting's holy decree with a little heaviness and curiosity.

The words on it made his eyes immediately bulge, full of incredulity.

In Fujian, I only listen to Lord Lian out of the mud without staining, just and upright, and the breeze on both sleeves. With the body of the example, he has not been promoted for more than ten years, and he is lighted by hundreds of officials, but he still blesses the people of Tingzhou. This great perseverance and great love should be the most of the ministers of Fujian. I am willing to treat Fujian Road Jie Du to make him treat, and Lord Lian thinks about it.

All the words of the decree are praises of the dawn of honesty.

Only what touched Lian Liming the most was Zhao Dongting's last sentence.

Whether to do this Fujian Road Festival or not, let him Lian Liming make his own decision. This is enough to show how much respect the Holy God has for him.

It is said that the emperor's grace is rolling, but it is not at all.

In the final analysis, he Lian Liming is just a mere envoy, even if he is from a role model, compared to the emperor, what is actually nothing?

If the emperor didn't respect him as a person, he didn't need to give him the right to make his own decisions.

The emperor is heaven.

Who would dare to disobey the emperor's will?

Not to mention, this holy decree is still for Lian Liming's promotion. And it's a succession of several levels.

After seeing the holy decree, Lian Liming was stunned for a long time, and finally his eyes were red. The sadness that has not been encountered for more than ten years seems to have turned into warmth at this moment.

Although he Lian Liming has done something for the people of Tingzhou, how can He De be the emperor?

Since then, Zhao Dongting's figure in Lian Liming's heart has become extremely tall. Although, at that time, he actually hadn't even seen Zhao Dongting.

In the next two years, Lian Liming went to Changsha to report government affairs to Zhao Dongting, and both times he had a long talk with Zhao Dongting, and he admired Zhao Dongting even more.

The little emperor's various political opinions, governance methods, and personal courage all deeply impressed Lian Liming.

The Great Song Dynasty can have such a master, what reason does he have for Lian Liming not to be willing to forget about life?

The emperor treats him so gracefully, what reason does he have not to be grateful to Dade?

So since Lian Liming took office, he can be said to be loyal to his duties and take care of this Fujian Road as his home.

And now, there are robbers outside the house who have robbed the house, how can Lian Liming not be worried?

He swore in front of Zhao Dongting that he would create a prosperous Fujian road for the emperor in his lifetime.

"Lord Lian!"

When Lian Liming was stunned, Huang Hua walked in from outside.

Lian Liming looked up a little dazedly, saw that it was Huang Hua, and finally showed a little brilliance in his eyes, and asked, "Lord Huang, how are the army commanders?" ”

He is the chief officer of Fujian Road. And Huang Hua, as the pacification envoy of Fuzhou Road, is the patron saint of this Fujian Road.

Of course, Wen Tianxiang, who was stationed on Fujian Road, did not count.

Lian Liming also knew the news that Zhi Yongshou was besieged, and he was so worried just now. Without the Fuzhou garrison, he can't hold this Changle County.

Huang Hua walked to Lian Liming and sat down by himself, sighing, "Commander, they have been rescued." It's just that there are a lot of casualties among the righteous people in the rivers and lakes, and almost all the senior monks in the Luohan Hall of Yongquan Temple have passed away......"

Lian Liming was stunned.

Finally sighed, "Alas......"

His emaciated cheeks looked a little depressed at the moment.

He also knew that guarding Changle County, these righteous people were a great help. This news is really chilling.

After a while, Lian Liming asked Huang Hua again, "Then Lord Huang came to me in such a hurry, ......?"

Huang Hua sighed and said, "At present, there are only more than 4,000 guards left in the city, and I want to ask Lord Lian to ...... again Recruit some more prime people to help us resist the thieves. ”

"This ......"

Lian Liming's face immediately showed hesitation, "The people are the foundation of the country, and as a Fujian parent official, I ...... How can you be so ruthless as to issue such a conscription order......"

Huang Hua said: "I don't want the people to resist the Yuan thieves, but have you ever thought that if the Yuan army breaks the city, will the people still be alive?" ”

Then he said: "I know that Lord Lian you cherish the people, but right now, you are helpless." The Yuan thief is menacing, and our Fuzhou defenders are afraid that it will be ......"

Lian Liming frowned slightly, "Lord Huang, can you give me an explanation, if you don't recruit people to the city, how long can you stop the Yuan thief?" ”

Huang Hua replied: "It depends on how much the Yuan army commander Ah Shu is willing to pay, if he doesn't care about the cost, it is estimated that the inner city will hold on for two days at most." ”

Lian Liming nodded lightly.

Then he said: "When the Yuan army attacks the city, I will personally lead the officials to the city and set an example for all the people." Only this conscription order...... I'm so shameless. ”

Whether the people are willing to go to the city to block the Yuan army is the people's business. And when a conscription order is issued, the taste can change.

Since Zhao Dongting came to power, the Great Song Dynasty has never forced the people to go to the city to fight.

Huang Hua saw Lian Liming like this, so he had to give it up, "In this way, there will be Lao Lian Liming." ”

Of course, he didn't want the situation to really reach the point where the people needed to go to the city to fight, but now, he had to take precautions.

I only hope that when Lian Liming leads the officials to the city, the people will be touched by them.

In this way, Changle County may be able to hold on for a little longer.

And as long as the garrison of Guangnan East Road arrives, the situation in Changle County will always be a little better.

The night passed quietly.

Ah Shu did not lead a large army to attack the city again.

The Yuan army under his command was only entrenched in the outer city, forming a siege of the inner city.

The torches at the head of the city were lit all night, and many soldiers stayed awake all night.

The tense atmosphere has always been condensed in the air and has never dissipated.

Huang Hua, Gao Tianzong and others are already preparing for the worst. That is to fight to the death with the Yuan army in this inner city.

There is no way back for them.

What no one probably expected was that the situation would suddenly take a turn for the worse the next day Qingming.
