Chapter 145: Emergency Measures
"Oh no, not good." A gang of idlers climbed into the county office, so that the county order of the military merit and official fortune who was still fantasizing about the glorious money journey slipped directly out of the chair and slipped to the ground.
Regardless of the image of the official authority, his pale face and trembling lips asked, "What's wrong?" Could it be that the Japanese are attacking the city? Before the gang could reply, they immediately spun around the lobby like ants, muttering, "How is this good?" How good is that? The sign has not yet been formed, and the nursing home has not yet gone to the city, this-" suddenly stomped his foot, turned around and was about to run to the back house.
Mao Yulong was angry when he saw it, what kind of official is this, before he asks about the situation, he has to run away first, how can this city be guarded. took a step forward and grabbed Zheng County's belt, because he didn't eat, of course his strength was not as great as the anxious county order, and he was taken to the ground if he was not good. The county order was also weak, although he was full of food and drink, he was dragged to the ground by Mao Yulong, and the two turned into rolling gourds and fell together.
Mao Yulong grabbed the belt of the county zun tightly, and said breathlessly: "My lord, don't worry, please make a decision after listening to what the messenger said, or won't you miss the future of the adult?" ”
As soon as he talked about the future, the county order immediately woke up, yes, he was confused for a while, and his mind was confused, but this Ming Dynasty had a strict rule from Hong Wuye. That is, it is the responsibility of all officials to defend the land, and if you lose the city and land, you will have to fall to the ground, besides, even if you escape, where can you escape? You must know that this Ming Dynasty not only has officials from all over the world, but also the wolf-like brocade guards, the pervasive East Factory, even if you drill into the cracks in the ground, you can dig it out in an instant. At that time, not only will their heads fall to the ground, but even if the family is small, it will not end well, the men will sell, and the women will be sent to the church, that is, there will be no chance to get ahead in the world. Didn't you see Feng Ru, who had been hiding in the corner and kept silent, with his hands pressed on the Xiuchun knife?
Which is more important, the future or the head? Don't think about it.
"Say, what's the situation?" Zheng Xianling lay on the ground and asked anxiously to the gang.
The gang was surprised to look at the county zun who looked like a gourd on the ground, but when he was asked, he immediately swallowed his saliva and replied: "Qiyu county zun, it is a large number of displaced people from outside the city, and they have asked to take refuge in the city. ”
Mao Yulong, who was lying on the ground, breathed a sigh of relief together, yes, did you say it earlier, it made everyone so embarrassed.
Hurry up and tidy up his sleeves and robes, and then, the county respected him and sat upright on the Taishi chair, and Mao Yulong pulled his belt and followed him.
If you don't pull it, you can't do it, once you run away, who are you counting on to go? With the courage of his just rectification, he still doesn't know how to deal with the unknown enemy.
At this time, the helper who reported the news took a breath and reported: "My lord, countless refugees have come from outside the city, clamoring to take refuge in the city, and there are also refugees in the city who are clamoring to flee out of the city, and everyone is blocked inside and outside the city gate. ”
"Ah, that's it." When the county magistrate heard the report, he couldn't help but let out a sigh, "I thought the Japanese were calling." Then he looked up at Mao Yulong and asked politely: "Mr. Xiao, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”
Mao Yulong pondered for a moment and said: "The refugees outside the city must not be allowed in, it is impossible to say that there are people from the Japanese who can mix in, and the people in the city cannot be released, those people are the forces we need to defend the city." ”
"Little gentleman has a point." The county commander nodded approvingly, "But, why didn't the Japanese invade the city yet?" ”
Mao Yulong thought about it and said: "The Japanese do not attack the city may be based on two points, first, that is, the number of Japanese is small, and they do not have the strength to attack the city, they just want to loot around the coastal river and leave, and second, it may also want to pressure us, cause chaos, let us abandon the city and flee, they are good soldiers to take the county seat without blood." ”
"What Mr. Xiao said is reasonable."
"However, no matter which aspect we have, we can't give up the defense of the county now, and everything is safe." Mao Yulong changed to a comfortable posture and suggested.
The county lord leaned forward and nodded approvingly: "What Mr. said is reasonable. ”
"The signing must be done quickly, and the matter of raising money and food cannot be delayed, and the adults must send their capable people to supervise it."
"What Mr. Xiao said is reasonable." The county order's advice to Mao Yulong was to obey his words.
"The top priority now is to solve the refugee problem first, please send someone to the city gate to return to the capital, let him never open the city gate, only let people shout at the head of the city, tell them, we will never give up the county seat, let the refugees go around the city, first take refuge in the countryside outside the city, and the number of signatures in the city will be led by a government officer, receive offensive and defensive equipment to go to the city, at the same time, more banners are planted all over the city to strengthen the momentum, confuse the Japanese robbers, and buy us time to prepare."
"Sir has a point." The county respected Mao Yulong's wit: "Mr. Xiao is talented, and he really deserves his reputation, even the empty city plan that Wuhou sang back then was nothing more than that." ”
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms has been written at this time, but it does not have the lively literary style revised by the Qing Dynasty in later generations, and it is not as long as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms of the Sun Dynasty. However, Zhuge Liang's name has reached the point where women and children are well known. It is such a Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and the Nurhachi of Houjin also printed a large number of this book, and sent it to his subordinates, so that everyone has a book, thinking that it is a book of soldiers.
That's why this county lord used Zhuge Liang to compare Mao Yulong.
Mao Yulong was embarrassed for a while, he was very different from Wuhou, but it was his rich experience in later generations that he had the wit in the eyes of the ancients, in fact, it was ordinary.
After the county honored Mao Yulong, he nodded and called the helper who reported the news, and instructed, "You hurry back to the city gate, report to the city gate according to what Mr. said, and tell him that you must strictly follow what Mr. said, and there must be no changes to the pool, once there is a mistake, I will not spare him." ”
When the idler was instructed, he immediately kowtowed and said goodbye, and rushed out of the lobby to report the news.
Seeing that the idle man went, the county commander nodded and beckoned to the dian shi who came over and stood aside: "The classic history is here, have you heard what the little gentleman told just now."
? ”
Dian Shi hurriedly bent forward: "The subordinates can understand it, and they will immediately carry the offensive and defensive equipment and banners." ”
The Ming military system, each county basically has a guard, but the guard is not allowed to garrison the county, but the guard equipment is all located in the city, by the local county government, usually do not issue and guard the military households, when the war starts to call into the city to guard, at that time by the county order to issue offensive and defensive equipment.
This is also Hongwu's method of containing each other in order to prevent mutiny. This is the reason why there is still a lot of combat power in the current guard, how many equipment there are in the treasury, and whether they can be used or not, that is another matter.
Fortunately, in order to prevent pirates from killing from the sea, the Ming Dynasty also had a lot of storage in the ordnance, so as not to be embarrassed by the Japanese invaders and signing without equipment.
"Sir, what's next?" Now, Mao Yulong has become the only think tank of this county and the backbone of this adult, and everything is waiting for Mao Yulong to decide.
Mao Yulong said: "There are only these things to do at the moment, but it's a pity that we don't know the real reality of the Japanese robbers, so we can only deal with them passively." If a warrior can go out of the city to investigate the truth, it will definitely be the most valuable information for us. ”
"yes." The county magistrate sighed with regret: "The art of war, knowing oneself and knowing that the other side will not be defeated in a hundred battles, now we know ourselves, but we don't know the military situation of the Japanese Invaders, it's really not easy to do-" Suddenly, when I saw Feng Ji, the brocade-clothed guard who was hiding in the corner, his eyes lit up.
That's right, isn't there still a hundred households in brocade clothes? Isn't his job to spy on intelligence? The big war is about to start, and you're still watching me here? It's time to do something serious.
As soon as the county honor's eyes passed, Feng Ji's body trembled, and he secretly said in his heart, this kid wants to push me into the water, and it is my duty to spy on the news, but that refers to those harmless people and officials, not those fierce and vicious widows. What are those pirates? Killing people is like hemp, rape and arson are good tricks, I am a small hundred, just this thin body, is there no return? It's not going to work, it's definitely not going to work.
took a step forward at the moment, and said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "What Mr. said is that my lord is right, this official is responsible for picketing detectives, and it is my duty." ”
The county order was moved to tears all of a sudden, look at it, it is still the emperor's personal guard with a high realm and a strong sense of responsibility, and when this country is in danger, he shows his heroic nature.
"But." The hundred households immediately blocked the mouth of the county honorable. took a step back sharply, and continued with a righteous and awe-inspiring voice: "But." This official is responsible for the heavy responsibility of picketing hundreds of officials Li Shu, and at this critical time when the Japanese are pressing, he should stick to his post, remember the merits of those who are dedicated to the country, and strictly deal with those who escape from the battle. ”
At that time, Mao Yulong rolled his eyes and was almost angry to death by this conscientious hundred.
I've seen shameless, but I've never seen such a righteous and awe-inspiring shameless. But after all, this Feng Ji and himself are also old acquaintances, and they also take good care of their newspapers, besides, if he really lets him go out alone, he may indeed die outside, since there are these relationships, then save him.
After thinking about it, he said to the county order: "Why don't we send a reward and collect people who know the news of the Japanese from the refugees outside the city?" ”
"Yes, yes, this method is the best, and it also saves us the time to scout back and forth, time is precious." Seeing that the gentleman who was obedient to the county order came up with a method that had nothing to do with him, the hundred households agreed loudly at that time. Baidu takes a look at the latest chapter of "Lonely Ministers and Jiezhong Literature in the Late Ming Dynasty" to read for free for the first time.
