To these words, Zhu Da nodded solemnly in agreement, Qin Chuan sighed and got up and said: "Come with me to meet the Wang Hu brothers, they have gone from afar, whether they have other intentions or not, we can also treat them sincerely, and we can't chill the hearts of them and those who come after." ”

It was really necessary to visit and receive Wang Hu and Wang Xiong, but Zhu Da and Qin Chuan both knew that this was to change the topic and get rid of the somewhat awkward atmosphere in the room.

Among the people who entered the city from the grange outside the city, some of the family members and refugees went to various places to resettle, and the young messengers who followed into the city were not allowed to go home, and they were also scattered everywhere, and the young messengers who returned to the city on duty were also called out of their homes and were assigned together with the family members, and the young people who were called out were used to Zhu Da's deployment, but their families were a little dissatisfied, and they all felt that their own sons and nephews were doing things for the yamen, and you Zhu Da called people like slaves without a name or a point, what is this, but dissatisfaction is just dissatisfaction, Everyone also knows who is in charge of the house inside and outside the city.

In addition to the rotating family members who were arranged to live in the Qin family's mansion, they were the brothers of the Wang family, and the two of them came to defect, but they have not yet determined any position and position, and they are treated as guests, and the other is Sun Wu, everyone thinks that Zhu Da is too "different" to Sun Wu.

"We ...... The subordinate brothers came to your place to defect, just to find a place to eat and live, and asked Master Qin and Young Master Zhu to bother arranging it, such a hospitality gift is really a killing......

“...... Thanks to the master's high opinion, the subordinate brothers are used to riding horses and holding knives, and they have been holding their breath in the house all these years, so please arrange your subordinates on Young Master Zhu's side......"

Qin Chuan and Zhu Da went to see Wang Hu and Wang Xiong, originally to treat them with the courtesy of guests, but they didn't expect Wang Hu's polite self-confessed subordinates who were unwilling to be equal to each other, and the meaning of the words was very clear, they wanted to go to Zhu Da's side to do things, although the two of them regarded themselves as subordinates, they had the friendship of escorting them back, and now they still can't figure out the intentions of the Taiyuan Wang family, Qin Chuan and Zhu Da will respect the choice of the two of them.

"I wonder what the two of you are capable of with bows, sabers and guns?" Originally, everything had to be decided, Zhu Da asked abruptly.

"I am dissatisfied with Young Master Zhu and said that there are no subordinate brothers in these military camps, although they are not first-class, they are still better than ordinary roads." Wang Hu had a self-contained look on his face when he answered, and Zhu Da asked abruptly, and there was nothing tactful in their answers.

Zhu Da smiled and said: "Since you have such a ability, wouldn't it be a delay to be a subordinate slave, if you don't dislike it, how about being a head coach on Zhu's side, teaching Zhu and everyone martial arts." ”

Hearing these words, Wang Hu and Wang Xiong looked at each other, and they could see the consternation in each other's eyes, the previous interjection made them think that Zhu Da was still a rude teenager, but these words arranged everything properly, so that the two of them could stay decently, and for a long time, it was really amazing to have such a measured mind at this age.

Wang Hu and Wang Xiong simply agreed, and several people were happy, Qin Chuan didn't put up any shelves, and thought about hospitality, but the county sent people to invite, saying that it was to discuss the preparation of the border plug beacon smoke, such relief and disaster preparedness involved the county's people's strength, and it has always been necessary for the gentry to participate in the implementation of it, Qin Chuan did not have any shelf on this, and after a polite sentence with the Wang brothers, he went to the county government, Zhu Da also had too many things to arrange, called Li He to receive Wang Hu and Wang Xiong, and also took people to busy.

After finding a wing room for the Wang brothers and politely saying that he needed to call him at any time, Li He also went to be busy, and the whole Grange moved into the city, and he was really busy as the role of the chief steward or second steward of the Grange.

Before the door closed, Wang Hu and Wang Xiong packed their luggage in an orderly manner, and when the door closed, the two stopped moving, Wang Hu looked at Wang Xiong, the two of them said that they were brothers with different surnames, in fact, they were the order of the family's children, of course, there is no reason to look alike, Wang Hu is more in line with the definition of "martial arts" at the time, rough and strong, powerful and powerful, and Wang Xiong is lean and capable, at first glance there is nothing surprising in the past, and only when you look closely can you find the power contained in the thin body.

"Don't look at me, it's only been less than a day, and I can't tell the difference between high and low, that Qin Juren seems to be a person who can do things, and that Zhu Da seems to be a thirty or forty years old, not at this age, he won't think so thoroughly......" Speaking of this, Wang Xiong shook his head and sighed, and said to Wang Hu in a muffled voice: "Don't worry so much about our brothers, saying that it is to give the Wang family multiple roads, but it is not just thrown out, it is not bad to have a place to live and retire here, although it is the first time I see it, That Qin Juren and Zhu Da didn't look cold. ”

"The boss is kind to our brothers."

"That's the Boss!"

More and more people rushed to the city from all over the city to take refuge, and the county city became more and more chaotic, not many people could join their relatives, and there were not so many ruined temples and abandoned houses for people to live in temporarily.

Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more tense, the three classes of the yamen and the white servants were mobilized, and the young and strong people in the county were also organized into teams, ready to deal with the chaotic situation at any time, at least to protect the safety of the residents in the county.

At lunchtime, Chang Kai also came to see Zhu Da and brought a message from Qin Juren, saying that if there was really any chaos in the city, Zhu Da should not sit by.

But the tense situation changed when the sun was in the west, and the smoke of the northern sky, which had been closely watched, dissipated, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

Although more than ten years have been peaceful, although there is that great disaster, but since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Datong has had a hundred years of experience in observing the beacon smoke, which was ignited yesterday and extinguished today.

Since it is a false alarm, there is no need for everyone to stay in the city, although the house is in tatters, but there are still a lot of bottles and cans, and the savings for the winter are not all brought to the city for a while, now you have to hurry back, and the moment you go back late may be stolen by thieves, passers-by or neighbors.

I found that the county town where the smoke was extinguished was in a commotion, but just now everyone was in a hurry to settle down and take shelter, and now they want to hurry back, many people are scolding, scolding the damn Tartars, and scolding the damn border army, causing everyone to make a false alarm, and some people married their daughters cheaply, and the young man took the initiative to be a son-in-law for people, I thought I would stay in the city for a long time, who would have thought that such a quick change, I would have to make a noise and regret it, and the chickens and dogs jumped.

The family and the refugees all listened to Zhu Da's orders, but the farmers of the Grange did not have that consciousness, and they also wanted to follow when they saw that everyone was clamoring to go back.

"Everyone in the Zhuangzi must be in the city, and they can go back and bring their belongings to the city." Zhu Da's order is very simple, the Zhuang guests are all Zhu Da's tenants from the legal theory, from the fact that everyone regards them as Zhu Da's private property, the order is issued, there are a few complaints, no one dares not to listen.

"Even if it's a false alarm, we can't go out of the city, although the Tartars didn't come this time, but it's so cold now, and the snow is falling, the Tartars will come in a few days if they don't come now, we can't bet on this luck, there is a place to live in the city and we can practice, and we won't delay farming in winter, so there's nothing we can't leave behind."

Zhu Da's explanation made everyone acceptable, after the large group of people and horses entered the city, the convoy and Qingzhuang went back to carry it several times, the grain in the Zhuangzi and the jars and jars were all transported into the city, even the firewood and hay were not left, everyone had nothing to worry about, and the threat of the Tartar invasion and looting was real, and staying in the city, under the protection of the city wall, was indeed the safest choice.

There are many vacant houses in the county, and there will be no impact after Zhu Da's hundreds of people come in, and after the people who have taken refuge everywhere return to their hometowns, order in Huairen County will soon return to normal.

However, on the third day of Zhu Da's entry into the city, the county felt the difference, first of all, the three classes of errand officers carried out activities in the whole city, and the door-to-door inspection and inquiry, at first it was very jumpy, everyone thought that this group of people did not even care about the feelings of the villagers and neighbors, and wanted to loot and extort the whole city.

was treated like this, and the officials also tore away the kind expressions they barely pretended, and took out their usual brutality and domineering, but everyone had no choice but to admit it.

"You don't know how many people are in your family? Do you want Lao Tzu to tell you! ”

"It's useless to play this trick, if you don't say it, Er Mazi, who has an enmity with you, can still be silent......"

The inside of the city is different from the outside of the city, the yamen is in the city, and the homes of the officials of the three classes and six rooms are also in the city, and the residents in the city are often not bullied too ruthlessly. Therefore, the people in the city are still a little bold to resist.

After realizing that this visit was not for the purpose of looting, everyone reluctantly cooperated with it, but this time it was a little strange compared to the past.

"Don't think it's a big fuss, don't feel that it's troublesome, the Tartars broke in in the middle of the year, our county suffered a big disaster, if there are some preparations in advance, it won't be so miserable, the winter is so cold, there are so many snows, the Tartars can't survive on the grassland, they will definitely go south to commit the border, there is a big disaster in the middle of the year, can we still expect the border army to hold it, we don't make some preparations ourselves, it's too late to cry at that time." Qin Juren talked eloquently in the county hall.
