Chapter 295: The city along the river is broken
"But! The concubine is still a little worried, Sinan has no heavy troops to guard it, and the second is to defend it without danger, I'm afraid this Sinan City alone won't be able to defend it for long! Li Yanran was still worried, she was not optimistic about Sinan City, although she was very confident in Yang Ming, but she didn't think that a people composed of ordinary people could compete with those displaced people.

"Do you think Sinan is really that weak?" Yang Ming looked at Li Yanran with a smile and said, "You don't know what place Guizhou is!" This place is poor, so human life is not valuable, why do you think those mountain people want to work on the construction site for a while without sleeping in the middle of the night? That's not so that future generations won't follow their old path! And you don't look at what kind of place it is! A gathering place for many nationalities! Those Miao people, Bai people, do you think they are really so easy to speak? That's just in front of us, even Liu Yi's old man has to think carefully before he speaks! ”
"The so-called poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people! In fact, this is the truth, the poorer this person is, the more unreasonable he is, of course, once there is hope, they don't want to lose it, they are all jungle walkers, here they are the real masters, so you don't have to worry about these problems at all. As for my safety, you don't have to worry, just like Liu Yi said, even if the entire Sinan people die, I will be fine, and do you think the people of the White Lotus Sect really want to kill me so much? ”
"I haven't heard of the White Lotus Sect concubine who doesn't kill people!" Li Yanran knew in her heart that Yang Ming was comforting her, and it was not good to say anything, as a woman, she should not cause trouble to her husband, and she was just a little petty on weekdays, but now that it was a crisis, she naturally knew how to advance and retreat, and she no longer spoke, just stood quietly behind Yang Ming and rubbed her temples for him.
Not much.
Yang Sandao entered the backyard in a panic.
Originally, now was not the time for him to be on duty, and it was obvious that there was something important to come now.
Immediately, Miaoyun and Miaoyin both retreated, and Li Yanran was about to leave, but looking at Yang Sandao's eagerness, he still stayed after all.
As soon as he saw Yang Ming, Yang Sandao said eagerly: "My lord, Yanjiang County has been captured by the displaced people, and the county order, the main book, and a number of officials have been killed!" ”
"The White Lotus Sect has rebelled?" Yang Ming frowned. Killing officials is a rebellion, and they also broke through the county seat, and the timing that those people chose to make him feel shocked.
Although most of the construction sites on Sinan's side have been completed, and the people have been resettled outside the city. But now there are still a lot of people living in the city, and the most important thing is that he can't move all the people out, since the Yanjiang River has been breached, then if he doesn't expect it, the displaced people will directly attack Sinan after occupying all the Yanjiang County in half a day.
"Nope!" Yang Sandao said: "According to the news from the county minister, it was a person called the King of Chaotian who took the displaced people from other states and counties to do it, and there were only a thousand people at first. But I don't know how the city seems to have an internal response, and the city gates on three sides have been opened, think about it, how can the county officials only hold on to dozens of people? So soon the county government was breached, and then the displaced people behind joined in, and now there are many fugitives along the river on the entire road from the river to Sinan. ”
Yang Ming was shocked.
If he said that there were only a thousand people, he would not believe it if he was killed. ,
It is impossible for such a small number of people to break through the four gates guarded by the city gate, of course, there should be a reason, but you must know that almost the entire city gate of Daming County is the same. There were at least two moats on all sides, and the other two sides occupied advantageous defensive positions even if they did not have moats, so how could the city gate guards with more than 200 people and the servants of the rich families in the city be breached in such a short period of time?
So, this news must be fake!
And the purpose should be very obvious, that is, to paralyze Sinan's side, so that Sinan thinks that it is an ordinary homeless rebellion, and he took down the river by luck, so as to lose his due defense and paralyze his carelessness.
Also, those so-called fugitives should not be fugitives at all in Yang Ming's opinion.
All the roads around were occupied by those displaced people led by the White Lotus Sect. How could they break through the blockade of the displaced people and escape?
Unless they have been forced to join the army of outcasts, they will have only one fate, and that is death!
Thinking of this, Yang Ming couldn't take care of it. Hurriedly said to Yang Sandao: "Sandao, don't worry about other things, hurry up and let several of our clansmen follow Madame down to the basement, after you break it above, immediately set fire to the backyard as soon as there is an abnormality!" ”
"My lord, could it be that the people of the White Lotus Sect have really attacked the kiln?" Yang Sandao is not Yang Ming. He couldn't think of so many problems, and he didn't even realize the danger coming.
Li Yanran looked at Yang Ming and said, "Three knives, hurry up and do it!" After that, he walked towards the backyard! ”
As a smart woman, she knew that now was not the time to ask the reason, and Yang Ming was the commander of Sinan County, so he didn't have the time to explain so much at this time, what she had to do was to immediately take all the female dependents to the basement to take refuge.
Yang Sandao listened to Li Yanran's words and hurriedly rushed outside.
Yang Ming didn't procrastinate, got up and walked towards the county yazheng hall.
As soon as I arrived at the county office, I found that the main hall was already full of people.
"Yang Ming, you also know?" It was Liu Yi who spoke, since Yang Ming had already obtained the information along the river, then he should obviously also know the problem over there, he was talking to several leaders, and when he saw Yang Ming coming over, he hurriedly asked.
"Hmm!" Yang Ming nodded and said, "It seems that the White Lotus Sect has already made a move, so let's act according to the plan now!" ”
Hearing Yang Ming say this, although Liu Yi still wanted to say something, she didn't say it in the end.
Several leaders also nodded, but there was still an old man: "Lord Yang, should we send a few people to take a look along the river?" ”
Yang Ming shook his head and said, "No need, since the river has been breached, then it already explains the problem!" You don't have any illusions, you don't know what kind of place along the river is, the situation over there is actually similar to our terrain except for the river, you think it's really that easy to break through the county town along the river? According to my opinion, it can already be determined that it is the so-called White Lotus Sect, and judging from the displaced people who appeared on the side of the city wall on our side some time ago, it is very likely that these people are their people, and it may be that they used this method to infiltrate the city on the Yanjiang County side, and such a large number of people should be three hours inside and outside if they still have weapons.... Hehehe! ”
Yang Ming didn't say anything, but the meaning was very obvious, if the situation in Yanjiang County and Sinan was the same, then the main reason why the city wall was breached on their side was likely to be on them.
If it weren't for the fact that Lu Qianbei had already set his sights on these people, who would have nothing to pay attention to such a group of homeless people?
"Hmmm! Yang Ming, what you said is very reasonable, we have to guard against it in times of crisis, so let's abandon the city according to the plan we made before! Liu Yi showed a decisive attitude as a court official at this time, he was not as pedantic as other officials, perhaps because he had stayed with Yang Ming for a long time, and he was more or less contaminated with the habit of not treating the county seat as a city.
After all, with Sinan's current situation, if he wants to rebuild a county like the current one, although the cost is a bit large, it is still within his acceptable range, and after hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, he no longer looks at a dilapidated old city, but even so, he is still a little distressed.
"In addition to evacuation, several leaders and village owners also need to arrange for Qingzhuang to block the other three city gates with prepared bluestones, I don't believe that they can survive in an empty city with no food and no water source?" Yang Ming instructed a few leaders, and then said to Lu Qianbei: "Lord Xu, you immediately call the three classes of government officials, as well as the guards of Sinan City and the soldiers Yong, you can transport the gunpowder out, and after the people are transported out of the city, they will be buried on the main streets immediately, and some will also be buried in the yamen, I don't believe that these people of the White Lotus Sect are really immortal King Kong!"
"Yes!"
He took the order of Qianbei and immediately took a few leaders out of the county office.
At this time, Liu Yi looked at Yang Ming and asked, "Aren't you worried that this killing is too heavy?" ”
Yang Ming smiled: "Killing? Why don't you say I'm doing merit? Can't you see that you're still a Buddha-looking person? ”
Liu Yi smiled bitterly, he had actually discussed this topic with Yang Ming more than once, the exiles attacked the city, whether it was a success or failure in the siege, it can be said that there will be no fewer dead.
Among these people, the ignorant and even bewitched or forced to attack the city will obviously become the main force of the siege, of course, the cannon fodder is also them, but in this era, neither the officials nor the people will be pitied, because once they embark on this road, it is a rebellion, that is a thief, and it is the object of everyone's killing.
Liu Yi actually had this question or pity played a role, after all, he was born in a poor family, and the helplessness of the people is also a divine blessing experience, if there is a way to live, I believe that those people will not embark on such a road of no return, he is more inclined to Yang Ming's labor reform policy, which can not only give them a way to live, but also contribute to the country.
However, it is obvious that his idea is just wishful thinking, in fact, he also understands that before the crisis is resolved, the destructive power of these people is obviously not something Sinan can bear head-on.
When the White Lotus Sect launched many attacks in the past, it can be seen that these people are now undoubtedly with the beasts, especially the management methods of the White Lotus Sect, it is impossible for them to feed these displaced people, because once they are fed, these people will have no motivation to continue attacking, so when these hungry people see that there is food in front of them, then their attack at that time is the most terrifying.
And Sinan just met their conditions.
More than 400,000 stone of grain is enough to make everyone crazy, and the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver transported from Shu are even more important for them to ignore life and death!
