"Quick, hurry up and put the hanging basket and pull him up."

Immediately, several soldiers picked the strongest bamboo basket and tied it down from the head of the city. But the soldier had already fallen from his horse and fell to the ground.

Wu Huanju was also in a hurry, he sat in a bamboo basket, went down to the city, and picked up the soldier with his own hands.

And breathing!

Wu Huanju hurriedly dragged him to the bamboo basket and asked the soldiers to tie up the city, while informing Wu Kaijie of them, and on the other hand, he tried his best to find a military medical officer to treat him.

Speaking of which, Wu Kaijie is relatively relaxed these days, and after forming a complete alliance with Huang Degong, Xuzhou is united and solid. As long as it drags on like this, An ** will do a good job of summer harvesting, at least he can mobilize some more people to come over, and by that time, it will be completely stable.

"My little man, what do you tell me to do, I only allow you to see me and I don't allow you to touch ......"

Wu Kaijie knocked on Erlang's leg and was singing beautifully.

"Brother, no, the sky is falling!"

Wu Huan jumped in front of Wu Kaijie in a few steps and grabbed his arm.

"Come with me, it's really over when it's too late!"

"You're crazy, what are you going to do, let me put my shoes on first!"

Wu Huanju was not polite at all, and he didn't even give time to put on shoes.

"Brother, Huai'an let the Tartars take it up, and Liu Liangzuo surrendered!"

"What?" This time it was Wu Kaijie's turn to be surprised, he jumped up three feet high, stared at the bull's eye, and asked in horror: "Who did you listen to?" ”

"Another soldier who ran out of Huai'an, he came to deliver the letter!"

"What about people?"

"At the Medic's Office!"

Wu Kaijie listened. Forget everything, just run away. Faster than a rabbit, he crashed headlong into the medic's office.

"Staff Officer Wu, here, a few gentlemen are being treated!"

They came to the outside of a hospital room, and through the crack in the door, they could see the figures swaying inside, and muffled grunts could be heard from time to time. was so anxious that Wu Kaijie could only turn back and forth outside the door.

At this time, Zhou Yingjie and the others also rushed over, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "This." What the hell is going on? ”

"I don't know." Wu Kaijie sighed: "But if what he said is true, the sky will fall!" ”

Suddenly, the door opened, and the two old military doctors walked out shaking their heads, sighing, and seeing that the situation was not good.

"How's the guy?"

"Hey, the arrow is too deep and can't be saved. We can only hang our lives with ginseng. If you have anything to say, just ask! ”

Wu Kaijie jumped inside, only to see a soldier in his early thirties lying on the hospital bed, his face was pale, and there was no trace of blood.

"Don't say anything yet, and don't move!"

Wu Kaijie held him down. Then he asked with burning eyes: "Answer my three questions, how is Huai'an, is Liu Liangzuo really surrendered, and what will happen to the Tartars next?" ”

"Huai'an was lost three days ago, and it was lost! Liu Liangzuo's cowardly bag surrendered to the tartars! ”

At this time, even Huang Degong was alarmed. He hurried in.

"Huai'an lost? Tens of thousands of troops, how could they be lost. Do you want to deceive Benhou? ”

"Big, big, small lives are on the line, and they won't lie. It was Hong Chengchou's old thief who personally led the troops and raided Huai'an, and Liu Liangzuo saw that he couldn't resist it, so he surrendered the city. My general's name is Liu Shoufang, and he took the risk of sending a villain to deliver a letter, please, please Huang Shuai, as much as possible, as far as possible, go back, return to the division......"

At the end of the soldier's words, his voice became lower and lower, and as soon as he tilted his head, he died!

Wu Kaijie's eyes were sharp, and now he had a bamboo tube on his body, which contained letters, he hurriedly took it, opened it and took a look, and it was really similar to what he said.

"It's over!"

After reading the letter, Wu Kaijie sat on the ground with his buttocks, his eyes glazed, as if he was carved from wood and clay.

Huang Degong frowned, suddenly pressed the handle of the knife, turned around and walked outside.

"Huang Houye, what do you want to do?"

"What else can I do, the court is about to end, won't you let me go to the rescue?"

"Wait!" Wu Kaijie shouted: "Hong Chengchou's old thief is good at using soldiers, and he took Huai'an three days ago, maybe he has already arrived at the riverside at this time, and the distant water does not quench his thirst, what is the use of you going?" ”

"It's useless to go!" Huang Degong snorted and said: "Huang Mou has been loyal to Daming all his life, and now that Daming is at the time of life and death, how can I stay out of the matter and act as a nobody?" ”

"Master Hou, no one wants to watch the court finish, let's think of a way now, maybe Daming can still be saved!"

Wu Kaijie pulled Huang Degong and hurriedly returned to the headquarters.

"Huang Houye, Huai'an is lost, the door of Nanjing is open, the Tartars may cross the Yangtze River at any time and attack Nanjing, now Nanjing's troops are empty, once the Tartars fight over, they will definitely not be able to hold it!"

Huang Degong pursed his lips impatiently and said, "Everyone knows this, maybe at this time, the old thief Hong Chengchou is leading people to attack the capital!" ”

"Yes, but it may not be without a turnaround!"

"Oh, tell me about it."

Wu Kaijie dropped his finger on Yangzhou and said affirmatively: "The opportunity is here!" ”

"Yangzhou?" Huang Degong looked incredulous, and said suspiciously: "There are no soldiers and no generals here, can you still block the Tartars?" ”

"Yes!"

"Why?"

"Because I believe in the Duke of Thistle!" Wu Kaijie said firmly: "The prefect of Yangzhou is hand-picked by the Duke of Jiguo, and this person's name is Yan Yingyuan. ”

Huang Degong turned his head desperately, but no matter how he thought about it, there was no such number one person.

"What ability does this Yan Yingyuan have to turn things around?"

Wu Kaijie smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I don't know, but he is indeed specially arranged by Ji Guogong, I believe that Ji Guogong will not be wrong." If Yan Yingyuan can hold on to Yangzhou, Nanjing will have a solid barrier, and His Majesty will have peace of mind! ”

Huang Degong frowned, walked a few laps, and then said: "Wu Kaijie, do you want me to pin my hopes on the superstition of Gu Zhenhua, he is not a god!" Can you save the Ming Dynasty? ”

"The problem is that Ji Guogong has already saved him twice. Escort the prince to the south, and fight in northern Henan. If it weren't for the power of Ji Guogong to turn the tide, I am afraid that the Tartars would have already crossed the Yangtze River at this time! ”

Huang Degong's fist crackled, and he stomped his foot fiercely after a while.

"Hey, I'll follow you for a ridiculous time, just see if Gu Zhenhua is so godly!"

Huai'an was lost, and the north of the Yangtze River suddenly fell into an unprecedented crisis, although Huang Degong defended Xuzhou, it was still impregnable. But there are countless people in other places who have surrendered to the Tartars.

The old thief Hong Chengchou, relying on the fact that he was an official in the Ming Court, recruited former subordinates, and the respondents gathered, and there was a great tendency to spread the list. The traitor was also complacent, and he hurriedly ordered Liu Liangzuo to act as a striker. The army marched towards Yangzhou. In his impression, there are no generals in Yangzhou, and it can be decided in one go.

Go down to Yangzhou and seize Jinling, the world of the Ming Dynasty will become the Qing Dynasty, even if there is a Gu Zhenhua. That's also the building will fall, and it will be difficult to support it alone. The old thief is more and more proud, and the horse's hooves are getting more and more anxious.

……

Wrapped around his waist for 100,000 yuan, he rode a crane down to Yangzhou.

Yangzhou, which is close to the canal, has always been the prosperous place in the world. Business travelers gather, business customers gather. Goods from the north and south are exchanged here. In particular, most of the world's richest salt merchants live here. It has become a paradise on earth, a pearl of the sea, and a beautiful jade in the stone.

But now the people are coming and going, all of them are in a hurry, and everyone looks panicked!

The Tartars are going south!

What are we going to do?

Everyone is a lawsuit, and at this moment, two errand servants suddenly walked out of the palace, carrying a basin and a small bench, and then a middle-aged man walked out, this thin and tall, high cheekbones, deep eye sockets, and a light in his eyes.

He sat down on the small bench and set aside the black gauze hat on his head, and spread his head apart. Dipping the water in the basin, his head was wet, and then he smiled bitterly at the razor: "The Han family is old-fashioned, and the top is new!" It's time for the officer to shave! ”

As he spoke, he took the razor, faced the bronze mirror, and began to shave his head, and the dark and shiny green silk was shaved down, revealing the bright head.

The skin of the body, the parents who receive it, except for monks and criminals, how can they be shaved off lightly. Seeing such an abnormal behavior, countless people suddenly gathered over.

They all know that the person who shaved is none other than Yan Yingyuan, the prefect of Yangzhou!

A meat vendor had the courage to shout, "Lord Yan, how do you shave?" Are you going to become a monk? ”

"It's Butcher Sun, this official advises you to shave your head too, the people of Yangzhou had better shave their heads, and they will save trouble!"

"You, what do you mean, why do you shave so well?"

Yan Yingyuan smiled bitterly: "Don't you know, the Tartars are about to fight, and Yangzhou has neither fierce generals nor strong soldiers." Where can we beat the Tartars, instead of waiting for others to force us to shave our heads, it is better to shave honestly, be a obedient people, and save our lives! ”

As he spoke, Yan Yingyuan grabbed the razor again and continued to shave the length of his head.

"Shameless!"

The people watched, and finally another old man walked out tremblingly, came to Yan Yingyuan, pointed at him with his finger, and sneered: "Yan Yingyuan, Lord Yan, the old man just wants to ask a word, do you want to surrender to the Tartars?" ”

"That's right, surnamed Yan, are you in a hurry to be an official of the Manchu Qing Dynasty before you want to shave your clothes?"

Yan Yingyuan smiled bitterly: "That's right, it's not right!" ”

The old man waved his hand: "Don't play dumb riddles with me, yes, no, no!" Lord Yan, during your time in Yangzhou, you have eliminated malpractices and avenged the grievances of the people, we all see in our eyes, you are a good official, but don't be confused in this kind of big thing! Once the Tartars are surrendered, it will be infamous for eternity! ”

Yan Yingyuan knew this old man, this name was He Mao, who was a talent in his early years, and later turned to business, and his family was very wealthy.

Yan Yingyuan bowed respectfully to the old man.

"He Lao, will you surrender to the Tartars as an official? I shaved the people of Yangzhou again! ”

"Hmph, I don't understand."

"Hey, the Tartars are going south, unstoppable, if we take the risk of fighting, we are afraid that the jade will be burned, only by conforming to the will of the Tartars, and seeking perfection, can we save our lives, if we are blindly strong, how can we have a good end! The Tartars slaughtered millions of Han Chinese in Liaodong, either killed or given them as slaves, cattle and horses, and the same was true for the people of the Northland. The disaster has fallen on the heads of the people of Yangzhou, where to go, everyone must think clearly! ”

He Mao's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and the crutches in his hand poked the ground again and again.

"Don't think about it, the old man has a Jiang Ming, the tartar wants it, then take it, let the old man shave, that's impossible!"

"You are old, what can you do when you are young, is it difficult to send you to death?"

Suddenly, a few young men rushed out of the crowd, they were panting like cows, and sneered: "Soft bones, don't worry about us, the Tartars are coming, it's a big deal to fight to the death, we won't be shrunken turtles, let alone shaved and dressed, I'm sorry ancestors!" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the people present waved their fists and shouted loudly: "That's right, there is death, we will never be the servants of the Tartars!" ”

Looking at the excited people, Yan Yingyuan suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing so much that tears flowed out.

"The surname Yan, are you laughing at us for being stupid?" He Mao asked angrily.

"I am laughing at the people of Yangzhou who are still bloody, or a group of men, the Tartars go south, there is nothing to be afraid of, with our hundreds of thousands of people, we can definitely deal with the Tartars to the end!"

Yan Yingyuan bowed to all the people.

"Folks, from this moment on, Yan is willing to throw this life in Yangzhou, I ask you, do you dare to live and die with me!"

The big turn of one hundred and eighty degrees, the people present were also full of horror, and they didn't know what tricks the prefect was playing.

He Mao suddenly smiled at this time: "Lord Yan, you have come to a radical method!" The old man told you so, my whole family, two hundred and seventy-three, all of them are willing to live and die with Yangzhou, including my three-year-old grandson! ”

"He Lao said well, we are all willing, if the Tartars want to occupy Yangzhou, they will step on our corpses!"

Yan Yingyuan showed a satisfied smile on his face: "Okay, great, everyone hurry up and inform relatives, friends and neighbors, we want to turn Yangzhou into a big barracks!" ”

After Yan Yingyuan explained, the entire Yangzhou City moved, at this time Yan Yingyuan turned around and ran back to the back hall of the prefect's yamen.

"Grandpa Guo, your old courage is bolder than Jiang Weijiang, why did you run to Yangzhou without a sound, aren't you afraid that the Tartars will break Yangzhou?"

"Hahaha, with you Yan Yingyuan here, Yangzhou will not be lost!" Gu Zhenhua smiled and said: "I came here this time, I have other important matters, you just command the army and civilians to defend the city, Benjue is very relieved!" ”

Yan Yingyuan looked embarrassed, and said with a wry smile: "Grandpa Guo, I don't have this confidence in myself, this is roasting on the fire!" Now people all over the world are looking forward to it, waiting for you to go out of the country, just give you a hand, this city defense task, please ask the grandfather to pick it up! ”

Gu Zhenhua stood up with a smile and patted Yan Yingyuan on the shoulder: "Benjue has appeared, and some big things are not easy to do." I'll give you a bottom, Shen Tingyang and Deng Wenhuan, a total of more than 40,000 sailors are on the river, they are just a copper wall, and the Tartars can't turn the sky! ”
