As soon as he heard Pan Feiyu's voice, Xiao Jing couldn't calm down. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

How much trouble have you caused me? I just coaxed people to do it, and you're adding to the chaos again?

He glanced at Pan Feiyu with a tiger face. Xiao Pan was also stunned when he saw the two together, but he quickly came back to his senses and said hurriedly: "Brother Xiao, something is wrong!" ”

Xiao Pan sometimes likes to talk nonsense, and Xiao Jing has long been surprised. He raised his eyelids and said leisurely, "What's wrong?" Don't be in a hurry, speak slowly. Is it the snow that crushes the house? Or is the snow disaster worsening somewhere? ”

Pan Feiyu hurriedly said: "Neither." Hey, the Beihu people are calling! ”

What the?

Xiao Jing's heart was shocked. Like many feudal dynasties throughout history, the northern frontier of the Darui Dynasty was never truly peaceful. On the grassland, there are countless tribes, large and small. These tribes, ranging from a few hundred to tens of thousands, were ruled by a single regime known as the Beihu during the Great Rui Dynasty.

In recent years, Da Rui and Bei Hu have been in a state of fighting and fighting, and and fighting and fighting. If it weren't for the fact that a major battle with Beihu last spring emptied the treasury, the drought in Hedong would not have been so miserable, and Xiao Jing's fate might have been different.

This winter is very difficult, and it is not uncommon for the hungry and cold Beihu to go south and plunder. However, Xiao Jing didn't expect them to call so quickly.

"Do you know where it hit?" Xiao Jing's face finally showed a hint of eagerness: "Is the news reliable?" ”

In this era, there were no decent communication tools, and the newspaper office did not have a reporter station outside, so the news of reporters would not be much faster than that of ordinary people. If Xiao Pan knows, it means that people outside are likely to be panicked.

"I heard that it has hit Linzhou, and it is looting all the way." Pan Feiyu, who had a worried face, sighed and said, "However, it is also said that it is a small group of Hu people outside, not a premeditated southern invasion." Hey, that's a blessing in disguise. ”

Linzhou is more than 500 miles away from the northern border of Da Rui, and it is indeed very rare for the Beihu people to go so deep. In the past, even if they invaded south, they would only cross the border a little bit and plunder some people's money and food near the border. It seems that the snow disaster in the north is much worse than one might think.

On the other hand, Pan Feiyu is not wrong, this is indeed a blessing in misfortune. Linzhou is still thousands of miles away from Ruidu, if there are not many enemies, and they do not dare to rush south, the safety of Ruidu and its surroundings can still be guaranteed.

Xiao Jing paced a few steps in place, frowned, and said, "Is there any news of casualties?" ”

Pan Feiyu shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, I don't think there will be any ......."

Before he finished speaking, Shao Ning ran over out of breath, shouting as he ran, "Have you heard?" Something is wrong! ”

Xiao Jing responded: "Is it the Beihu people who called?" ”

Shao Ning was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Yes." You already know that? The Hu people fought to Linzhou, not only looting, but also slaughtering the people of Linzhou. Survivors said that the city was littered with corpses, and the civilians who were left behind were killed to the ......."

"Huh?" Xiao Jing's eyes widened suddenly, and he said eagerly: "Who are you listening to?" ”

Shao Ning sighed: "There is a caravan in the Shao family in Linzhou, and when I heard that the Hu people were coming, the people in the caravan ran away, and only one young man was left there because he went out to run errands. As a result, after the Hu people entered the city, they were all killed, regardless of men, women, and children, if he hadn't found a place to hide, he was afraid of ......"

After that, he turned his head a little sobbing sideways.

Xiao Jing's eyes suddenly turned red, and he said angrily: "What are the defenders doing to eat?" Don't the people of the city run? ”

Linzhou City is not large, with a population of only 5,000 households, about 20,000 or 30,000 people, but it guards the throat of the trade route. From the northern border town to Ruidu, countless caravans will choose to pass through Linzhou, which is also the commodity trading center of the northern part of the Great Rui Dynasty. It may have been precisely because of this that the Beihu people took a fancy to this and attacked Linzhou by surprise.

Shao Ning said angrily: "The defenders have already learned the news, so they naturally have to be prepared. The Hu people did not have many soldiers and horses, and the city defense of Linzhou had been operating for many years, so the residents were very relieved, and only two or three percent of them fled in advance. Who knows, there are a lot of spies lurking in the city, and as soon as the Beihu people arrived, some people made trouble in the city and took the opportunity to break the city gate from the inside...... In a place like Linzhou, there are a lot of fish and dragons, and it is common for some small people to mingle in it, but I didn't expect ......"

Xiao Jing's face changed. Since most of the people are still in Linzhou City, it means that ......

The slaughtered residents are only afraid of more than 10,000 people!

The crowd was silent. Xiao Jing gritted his teeth and gurgled loudly, and Shao Ning slammed his fist on the courtyard wall, and when he withdrew his fist, the fist had turned red.

"Let's all come into the house and get ready for a meeting." Xiao Jing gritted his teeth and said, "Ziqian should be back soon, right?" When she returns, let's get started! ”

After that, he said to He Wan'er again: "This time it's the newspaper plenary meeting, Wan'er is also here!" ”

After the meal, everyone gathered in the hall.

Xiao Jing, who had a solemn expression, took the lead in speaking: "Everyone should know about Linzhou City. ”

Everyone nodded. The most emotional is Qin Ziqian, if you look closely, you can see that her lips are trembling.

Xiao Jing looked around and said loudly: "Everyone knows that the mirror newspaper has not been easy to get to where it is today. We owe this to all of you and all of our readers who have supported us.

As I said before, the Mirror doesn't do current affairs news for the time being. As for the reason, it is because our newspaper is still too immature to withstand the wind and rain. However, when a tragedy like Linzhou happens, can we still be indifferent?

What is media? It is a medium to spread the message, to make a voice, to do justice! Yes, we need to keep a low profile, we have to balance the interests of all parties, and we can't get involved in those messy disputes too early...... However, if we can all pretend to be deaf and dumb about such a big thing, then what do we need to do with the mirror?

It is the responsibility of the media to let everyone know everything they should know!

The Beihu people slaughtered more than 10,000 compatriots of our Darui Dynasty, and Ruidu also heard the news here. Including me, everyone is worried, but everyone is worried: Will the Hu people come over?

And then, the Beihu people will not come to Ruidu? At least not this year. Gradually, everyone will live their own life again, and those worries will be forgotten over time, and even used as a joke to make fun of others.

Our compatriots who were killed will also be forgotten. Many years later, people may only talk about them after tea and dinner, and sigh twice in the right place. That's all they can get in the memory.

As media people, we are not soldiers with swords in hand, and it is not our responsibility to go into battle to kill the enemy. But we have a pen!

Even if we weren't there, the Mirror should have done something to commemorate the people who were killed! Every word in the newspaper is their epitaph; Every story in the newspaper is a history written by us!

Saying that, Xiao Jing was also a little excited, so excited that even his voice was trembling: "I decided that the newspaper would immediately send reporters to the front!" ”
