Linxian is not the most remote in the entire territory of the Qing Dynasty, but it is also the closest to the southwest.

To go north to the capital, 600 miles to expeditious, on the road to change horses without changing people, it also takes ten days, if it takes about two days to go south to Yunnan, in this era, it is a thing that cannot be changed, but also the limitation of the agricultural society.

At the same time, two horses carried different letters, one went north and the other went south, and at the crossroads of time, the two passed by.

Brother Zhao Tongdi rode a fast horse, followed the official road, all the way north, without stopping, the terrain in front of him became flat, and the horse walked a lot easier.

From the morning to the present, I have not stopped to rest for a while, touched the mane of the horse, but the sweat is wet, looked up at the sun in the sky, hanging high in the sky, presumably it is also noon, looking into the distance, there is a tea stall, thinking about giving the horse a rest, I can also eat some dry food.

Turning over and dismounting, he pulled the horse to the tea stall, and saw that many people were like him, resting and sharpening here halfway. Xiao Er took the horse in his hand, found a quiet table, sat down and asked for a cup of tea, and the boss came over and enthusiastically said, "There is still braised meat in the store, it is fresh." Unable to resist the temptation, he asked for half a catty and ate it.

"Do you know, the front of the county can't enter, the city gate was sealed, last month my son-in-law let me go into the city, my daughter is about to give birth, count the days, just these two days, but I was in a hurry, and the city gate of the old man for a long time just didn't let me in, more silver can't be done, you say strange is not strange." An old man said with a sad face.

Another person who looked like a merchant was also worried after hearing this, "Who said no, I came here yesterday, several carts of grain, all piled up behind this horse circle, the early rice that has just been harvested, hurry up tomorrow to see again, and don't let me enter the city, I'm afraid that this time I will lose all my money." ”

"You probably don't know, this Linxian has changed, the notice said, from Beijing City to a Qingtian lord, it is said that he is still a champion, ordered to investigate the corrupt officials in Linxian County, when the city gate was sealed, I was on the side, seeing that the situation was wrong, I quickly slipped out." After saying that, he laughed proudly.

"Really? I said why didn't the brother-in-law of Yao Zhixian come to the village this morning to collect rent, according to his previous temperament, I am afraid that he will come to the village before dawn to shout, and I think he is running for his life. ”

"Nonsense, what is running for his life, he went to Shun'an Mansion to find his brother-in-law, last night the three of them rested and fed the horses at my place, I heard them discuss finding a brother-in-law to move the rescue soldiers or something." The boss brought the braised meat to Zhao Tongdi's table, but as soon as he turned around and put it on the table, he saw the little brother drop a few taels of silver, lead the horse and gallop away.

Looking at the braised pork on the table, "Yes, I'll have a good meal for myself today." ”

Brother Zhao beat the horses all the way, and he didn't feel sorry for the horsepower, knowing that if what they said was true, he was afraid that the team was already on the way, and he had to tell the adults quickly so that he could prepare.

Linxian, Hu Xiancheng saw this new county walking around in his eyes, and his eyes were almost spent, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Qiu Tongmian replied for a long time, "This city gate can't be opened, this is still at large outside the former magistrate, as soon as this city gate is opened, I'm afraid that someone will go out to ventilate and report the news." ”

Hu Xiancheng arched his hand and said, "My lord, it's not a humble duty to open the city gate, but the people in the city, the city gate is sealed and cut off from the outside of the city, all kinds of materials in the city are supplied by the surrounding farms and traders, the people are complaining, and then drag it down, I'm afraid it's panic." ”

Qiu Tongmian didn't expect things to be so complicated, "Let me think about it again, you go down first to appease the people." ”

"My lord, it's too late for things to change."

"I know, Rory, you go to Mr. Ji, he must have a good way, and when you encounter government affairs in the future, you will find him, and his words will represent mine." Qiu Tongmian said impatiently, but secretly said in his heart, the ghost knows if he wants to find someone to go to Shun'an Mansion to find that Yao Zhaonian, this matter cannot be agreed, at least not at present.

Seeing him go down, he was going to the backyard to find Xu Yingying, and promised her to go shopping in this county seat at noon.

saw Xiao Jian running in sweating profusely.

"My lord, it's urgent, Yao Zhaonian has already come to Linxian with soldiers and horses."

Qiu Tongmian panicked, "How is it possible, where did you know that." ”

"I heard it on the way from Brother Zhao who went out of the city in the morning, my lord, this matter is estimated to be true, if the adults want to ask anything, I will let Brother Zhao come up."

"No, you let him rest first, don't go out of the city first, if he is intercepted on the official road, it will be troublesome, go and call Chen Jinnan and Mr. Ji to come." Qiu Tongmian forced himself to calm down, although he had already prepared in his heart, he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

In the anxious waiting in the lobby, he saw Chen Jinnan coming first, followed by Zheng Banqiao and Ji Xiaolan, "Everything is known." ”

Ji Xiaolan saw that Qiu Tongmian was panicked, and comforted, "Don't panic, don't mess up." I have already asked Xiao Jian to gather people, and I want to add Mr. Chen's men, there are more than 100 people. ”

Qiu Tongmian said with a bitter face, "What is the use of more than a hundred people, let's think of something else." ”

"My lord, I think that no matter how many soldiers and horses Yao Zhaonian can bring, the top priority is to send people to select young and strong men in the city to assist in guarding the city gate." Chen Jinnan said, he knew better than anyone else in his heart, although his subordinates were all excellent, but this was not like the last time when dozens of people were fighting, this was defending the city, and it didn't work if there were fewer people.

Ji Xiaolan also nodded after hearing this, "Zheng Banqiao and I will go to the vegetable market with Hu County to gather Qingzhuang, but the time is urgent, I'm afraid there is not enough time." ”

Qiu Tongmian said, "It's about the safety of tens of thousands of people in the city, so much is in charge, as long as it meets the requirements, the city gate will be pulled down." ”

Zheng Banqiao interjected, "My lord, don't do it, we only have about 100 people to use, if we forcibly recruit people, the people will see that we only have about 100 people, I'm afraid it will cause a bad end for the people." ”

Ji Xiaolan also echoed, "What Mr. Zheng said is what I was worried about before, plus the soldiers and horses coming outside at any time, the situation is not easy to control." After speaking, he also glanced at Chen Jinnan who was standing beside him.

Chen Jinnan was also afraid after hearing this, and arched his hand, "It's still the two adults who are thoughtful, but Chen is not thoughtful." ”

Qiu Tongmian saw that the three of them said a word to me, his head exploded, and he raised his voice and said, "When is this, try to recruit as many people as you can, if you can't force it, forget it, you can recruit as many as you can." ”

After speaking, he came to the backyard with a bitter face, ready to let Xu Yingying pack up her baggage and run away at any time, and finally found a place to settle down and prepare for development, I didn't expect the crisis to come so quickly, I didn't give myself time to prepare at all, complaining and complaining, I still have to find a way.

Seeing Xu Yingying leaning leisurely on the pillar of the painting pavilion for a year, looking comfortable, Qiu Tongmian stopped unconsciously, swallowed the words prepared earlier back into his stomach, turned around and went to the bedroom.

When I opened my phone, I found that the progress bar had reached 98 percent, and in Qiu Tongmian's anxious waiting, it finally reached 100 percent.

"Congratulations to the dormitory, the system upgrade is complete, the current achievement value is: 5100, the system is upgraded to level 2, the soldier reward distribution ratio value is adjusted to, 1:10, the current reward distribution conditions are 5500 points, because the host does not fill in the complete information, the system can not judge the current detailed age and historical data, the next distribution mode is, random distribution, the historical problems caused, the consequences are at your own risk."

Qiu Tongmian still had great hopes for the system, but he didn't expect that the achievement value would be 5000 and nothing, and there were 400 points left before the next distribution, which is not fatal.

Holding his head in pain, he forced himself to calm down, Yao Zhaonian's soldiers and horses are coming at any time, how many young and strong people can be expected to be recruited Ji Xiaolan is right, if it is forcibly recruited, if it is not done well, it will be internal and external troubles.

Sitting in front of the bed and staring at the achievement value on the phone, 5100, there are still 400 points missing, I remember that when I first came, the identity of a person was only 200 points, such a short time, go there to get these 400 points, do you really want to run away? But where can you run, I am unwilling.

Tell yourself that you can't sit still anymore, instead of thinking about it, it's better to go to the city to help Ji Xiaolan and them. If you really only call 100 people, you can only run away if you want to come, and the green mountains left behind are here, and you are not afraid of no material to burn!

At the entrance of the county vegetable market, on the temporarily erected platform, Ji Xiaolan was squirting and salivating on it. There are many onlookers below, but there are many lively people, and only the young people who go to Zheng Banqiao to sign and draw the pledge.

Chen Jinnan's face was not good-looking, it was even worse than the expectations of the three of them, just these crooked melons and cracked dates, how could the city gate be guarded. I secretly said in my heart, no matter what the adults say, I must persuade him to flee for his life, and it is not a big problem to have his forty or fifty men escort out of the city.

Qiu Tongmian walked into the crowd, and also listened to Ji Xiaolan below and said that he couldn't understand classical Chinese, and it seemed that he could only understand one sentence, what did he do to protect his family and defend the country, what are you talking to these bitter people, isn't this a show, seeing that the sun is about to go down, few people have signed up, squeezed through the crowd, and jumped on the stage.

Ji Xiaolan saw Qiu Tongmian coming up, and said ashamedly, "My lord, it's useless to be humble." ”

Qiu Tongmian said, "It has nothing to do with you, you go find a loophole, I can use it." ”

Ji Xiaolan didn't ask what she wanted the funnel to do, she went down and ordered someone to find it, and after a while, a servant sent a copper funnel.

Qiu Tongmian looked at the whispers of everyone below, few of them cared about the things on the stage, moistened his throat, picked up the funnel, and shouted with all his strength, "Good afternoon, comrades·······",

An earth-shattering roar was amplified by the funnel, cutting through the girl's skirt, the teacup in the hands of the old man, and the sky.
