From the south to the east of Ji, the right wing army of Jianguo broke through the cities of Licheng, Zhangqiu, Zouping, Changshan, Shouguang, Weixian, Gaomi and other prefectures and counties, plus the villages and towns broken along the way, and captured more than 200,000 people, most of whom have been killed by Jianyu, or died of blades, or died of hunger and cold on the road, especially those old and weak women and children, who are weak and have a very high mortality rate.

The original purpose of Jianyu's southward movement was to make the Ming court lose blood constantly through killing and looting again and again. Therefore, everywhere they went, they wantonly destroyed, although Huang Taiji pretended not to kill more and not to leave the husband and wife, in fact, Jianyu could not do it at all.

When He Guangfu heard the gunshot, he immediately got up from the ground and listened intently.

"That's ...... Officers and soldiers came to our rescue? Someone asked in a trembling voice.

A small room was crowded with dozens of people, and all the people ate and drank here, so a strange smell permeated the room. He Guangfu heard the man's voice and glanced at it disdainfully: "How many times have you seen officers and soldiers come to attack Jianyu?" It is better to expect the officers and soldiers to come to our rescue, but it is better to expect God to open his eyes and thunder and kill these animals! ”

"The court doesn't care about us, God doesn't care about us, who will save us?" Then some people cried and cried.

He Guangfu glanced sideways again, he just wanted to rely on people to save him, after all, it was a dead end, and the only way was to save himself!

The sound of the muskets outside became more urgent, and everyone listened attentively, and for a time there was a commotion outside, and the room fell silent. An older man in the crowd muttered something, He Guangfu glanced at him, he wanted to escape, he had to find some helpers, so from time to time he observed the people around him to see who might be his helper.

"What did you say, big brother?"

"The muskets of officers and soldiers will not be so dense, nor will they be like this, beating drums." The man's voice was louder.

After his reminder, everyone noticed that the sound of the gun was indeed different, not the kind of sound that rang out in one piece, but according to a certain rhythm, one after another, like the beat of a drum during the New Year.

"This big brother, everyone is in trouble here, meeting is fate, I don't know the eldest brother's surname, where is the person?"

"Don't dare, don't dare, my surname is Lu, my name is Man, but I am from Zhangqiu. What about you, brother? ”

"My surname is He, the big Guangfu, I was originally from Licheng, the dog said that the Jianyu, the good end came to harm us......" He Guangfu glanced at his companion who closed his eyes and never made a sound: "This Xiucai's surname is Cao, his name is Czeqian, and he is also from Licheng." ”

Cao Ceqian was not very old, and when he heard the mention of himself, he opened his eyes and arched his hand.

"Xiucai is good, I heard that Jianyu also summoned Xiucai...... "Someone said in a weird way.

He Guangfu looked over there, and the man closed his mouth when he saw He Guangfu's fierce gaze.

"What's going on out there?" Attention returned to the gunfire outside. The sound had been going on for a while, and I could still hear what seemed to be a scream, but it wasn't real.

"I thought of it!"

Cao Ceqian stood up suddenly, his gaze becoming intense.

"What comes to mind?"

"It's Nanhai Bo, only Nanhai Bo has such a tactic in the whole world, and only Nanhai Bo will come to save the people!"

Seeing that most of the people in the room were confused, Cao Ceqian was somewhat conceited. It is good for a scholar to be able to read and write, and his knowledge is much wider than that of ordinary people, like Cao Ceqian, who has read the two newspapers and periodicals "People's Livelihood Miscellaneous" and "People's Livelihood Express", and knows a lot about Yu Guozhen's deeds in the northern and southern wars.

"You mean the Tiger Cub?" Someone else asked.

"Right...... Your accent isn't our pimple! Cao Ceqian looked at the man who spoke again with a little vigilance.

"Xiucai Xianggong, the villain's surname is Liu, his name is Pan, and he is a native of Nanzhili. Perennial running a small business outside, this time I was going to go to Ji'nan Mansion, but I was taken captive by Jian. Xiucai Xianggong said well, only Nanhai Bocai in the whole world takes the people to heart, it must be that he learned that Jianyu entered the customs and brought the teacher to rescue! ”

"What kind of person is this Nanhai Bo?"

"With the wisdom of Zhuge Kongming, the righteousness of Guan Erye, the courage of Zhang Sanye, and the loyalty of Zhao Zilong, he is a hero who is my great master!"

Although Cao Ceqian is just a poor talent, he is not lacking in enterprising, and a copy of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is even more rotten. At this time, with the storyteller's mouth, the story of the Three Kingdoms also spread all over the world, and when everyone heard it, that Nanhai Bo turned out to be such a great character, and they couldn't help but be in awe.

"He's such an amazing hero...... Will it come to our rescue? Someone asked timidly, with both hope and hesitation in his voice.

"Nanhai Bo will definitely save us, we Nan Zhili, he has saved I don't know how many times, the remnants of the people, he is a broken family to save the people!" Liu Pan's eyes were also full of hope, he talked about Yu Guozhen's rescue of the people in the Nanzhili area, and Cao Ceqian said what he saw from the "People's Livelihood Express" that Yu Guozhen helped save the people in the Battle of Gyeonggi and the Battle of Jinghan. After listening to this, everyone was very excited.

"If everyone in the court is like Nanhai Bo, where will these Jianyu Liukou be rampant!" Someone couldn't help but say.

When he heard these words, he just nodded one after another, but Cao Ceqian's heart moved, and he frowned slightly.

"A character like Nanhai Bo, why don't you governor the world's soldiers and horses?"

"Naturally, there are ministers in the court, how can the ministers tolerate Nanhaibo?"

Everyone's discussion changed from the gunfire in their ears to why Yu Guozhen is not the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, Cao Ceqian has a little more knowledge than them, and he also feels that the court is in this situation, but does not reuse Yu Guozhen, it is really a villain to annihilate him.

In the midst of this discussion, the gunfire outside suddenly stopped.

At the same time that the gunfire outside stopped, the discussion in the room also stopped, and Cao Qiance's heart tightened, this outside, is Nanhai Bo winning or losing?

Everyone was silent, waiting for the verdict of fate, only He Guangfu stood up suddenly, strode to the door, and squeezed over a few people, who didn't care about him at this time.

After the gunfire stopped, the panicked men shouted and neighed, and after a while, the people shouted and the neighing of horses also stopped. Outside fell into silence again, no one cared about them, the captive people, He Guangfu leaned through the crack in the door and looked out, but no one saw it.

This entire neighborhood was used to house the captive people, and the streets outside were originally patrolled by Jianyu soldiers, but at this time, the patrolling Jianyu soldiers were gone.

He Guangfu gritted his teeth and was about to push open the door, but was held down by the people around him: "You are crazy, if Jianyu knows, we will all die!" ”

When they had brought them in, they were not allowed to open the door, and if any room was opened, the whole house would be killed. He Guangfu struggled a few times, but he couldn't break away, he said angrily: "How can you know the ...... outside if you don't open the door?"

Saying that, suddenly, another strange sound sounded.

It was like footsteps, but everyone had never heard such neat footsteps. He Guangfu didn't care about earning it, so he leaned into the crack in the door and looked out, and the rest of the people also looked out from the crack in the door or through the window.

It wasn't long before they saw a group of soldiers in strange green coats approaching.

They carried muskets on their shoulders, which were tied with straps, and had a strange appearance, unlike the muskets used by the officers and soldiers of the imperial court. They walked with a very attentive expression, and there was no one talking to each other at all, just looking to both sides, and they were all looking at each other with a wary gaze, not with that scattered curiosity.

Everyone's attention was attracted by this strange soldier, and no one pressed He Guangfu anymore, he opened the door, held his breath, and watched the group of soldiers pass by in a daze.

One by one, each of them, marched in silence.

One by one, the people came out of the door, and they were silent at first, and then they found that the soldiers, though they did not speak, had maintained enough kindness to them, and they burst out in an instant with sorrow, weeping, and laughter. Many people simply knelt on the dirty ground and bowed their heads again and again, expressing their gratitude to the troops who had rescued them from the Jianjiao.

What He Guangfu thought in his heart at this moment was "the husband should be like this".

And in his ear, Cao Qiance whispered this sentence.

A group of green-jacketed soldiers walked through the streets to the west gate, and about two or three thousand people passed, and then they saw a group of soldiers stop, and in this group of soldiers, a young man of very young age and good appearance, grinned at the crowd, and showed his white teeth.

"Everyone has suffered, Gaomi City has been recovered, and Jianyu has been repulsed, please rest assured."

The crowd who had already vented their emotions was pushed up by excitement again, this time they cried less and cheered more, and the sound almost lifted the sky overhead.

He Guangfu desperately moved forward, squeezing towards the young man on the horse, but only a few steps closer was blocked by two green-clothed soldiers. Seeing that the young man seemed to be leaving again, He Guangfu couldn't help but jump up and said, "But Nanhai Bo, but Nanhai Bo?" ”

"I am Yu Guozhen." The young man nodded to this side, and generously admitted his identity.

"Nanhai Bo, sure enough, Nanhai Bo came to save us!"

"There is only Nanhai Bo in the whole world, and he also takes us bitter people to heart!"

In an instant, such a discussion sounded, and just like in He Guangfu's house, other rooms could not discuss which unit sent the gunshot. Those who were knowledgeable guessed the tiger guard, and now it was confirmed, and everyone was even more happy.

"I want to join the army, Nanhai Bo, I also want to join the army!" He Guangfu shouted: "I am willing to serve Nanhaibo!" ”

"Willing to serve Nanhai Bo!"

Like He Guangfu, dozens or hundreds of people shouted. Cao Qiance's heart shook even more, this is the people's heart, this is the people's hope!

Nanhai Bo turned to the north and south, not afraid of sacrifice, his dedication, how could the people not know!

Rows of people knelt down, and Yu Guozhen was also a little uneasy, he motioned for the guards to pull up two, but saw more kneeling, which made him have to urge the horse to pass quickly through the street.

Mao Yuanyi followed him and smiled slightly when she saw this scene.
