Chapter 253 You Ningguo people are really rich
is worthy of being a heroine, the world was deliberately blindfolded by Chu Yu, but Mrs. Wei's gaze was beyond ordinary people, which made Mei Xiaoren admire the heroine in front of her more and more.
"Yes." Someone on the side chimed in.
Mei Xiaoren and Mrs. Wei both cast their eyes at the man, and Mei Xiaoren saw that it was He Qin who was speaking, and his errand today was to guard the city tower, and he was standing right next to them.
"Really?" Mrs. Wei looked at He Qin and smiled, and sighed to Mei Xiaoren, "So, it is a wise move for you to switch to the Prime Minister's Mansion, you don't care what Xiang Ye likes first, just looking at Xiang Ye's prominent status, but he never messes with flowers, he knows that Wei Shuying and Wei Guogong, who has a group of wives and concubines, are more reliable." ”
Mei Xiaoren realized that the enemy army was still downstairs, and she and Mrs. Wei were discussing Chu Yu here, and they were discussing it in full swing, and it didn't seem to be appropriate for the situation.
Mrs. Wei didn't care, took out a handkerchief from the armor and wiped the sweat on her face, and sighed while wiping: "Alas, the old lady has been spreading that flower intestine in her life, but Daning has always been peaceful, I have no fight to fight, and beating his flowers and plants can also relieve boredom." ”
Mei Xiaoren looked at Mrs. Wei's heroic and fierce appearance, guessed that she was not an ordinary woman who could be forced to marry, and asked curiously: "Did Mrs. Wei marry into the Wei family to obey the orders of her parents?" ”
"Not really." Mrs. Wei suddenly showed a gentle smile on her face, lowered her eyes and said, "Don't the girls' families like handsome and talented sons, Wei Shuying is well-born, not to mention literary talent, those women can like it, but I'm also a girl, so I can't like it?" ”
Mei Xiaoren couldn't help laughing, when Mrs. Wei talked about the scholar of Wei, she seemed to have changed from a female general to a gentle lady of the bachelor. It turned out that Mrs. Wei's fists and kicks for the university scholar were hidden behind her feelings, like beating and scolding, and love.
Mrs. Wei looked at the downstairs of the city at this time, patted the railing and discussed the topic: "In my opinion, they will attack in less than three days, and my father should arrive in a few days, and the people of Xia must also know." ”
"Isn't that Yun County in jeopardy?" Mei Xiaoren was worried.
Mrs. Wei looked at Mei Xiaoren with a smile, "Isn't this your hometown, you don't want to think about how to solve the siege of your hometown." ”
"We are trapped in the city, such a disparity in strength...... It's not easy to fight, is it? Mei Xiaoren was at a loss.
She doesn't know anything about the art of war, but she knows that the more soldiers in a war, the better, and now they are nearly half less than the Xia Kingdom's troops, and this battle is afraid that it will be difficult to fight.
Mrs. Wei shook her head and sighed: "Alas, these people in Xia Guo are really poor and crazy now, and they don't want to die when they fight one by one, as if they can pick up silver if they fight hard." ”
"Afraid of poverty?" Mei Xiaoren was surprised and smiled, "Then I have an idea." ”
In the afternoon, Mei Xiaoren took He Qin and a few soldiers to the street and went straight to her family's bank.
Her family also did business with the Xia people in the past, and there were a lot of coins of the Xia Kingdom stored in the bank, but after Daning and the Xia Kingdom broke off diplomatic relations, those coins lost their usefulness and were discarded, so they were kept in the treasury of the money village.
If Yun County can't be saved, everything here can't be saved, and if you give up your money, you may be able to save Yun County from danger.
Mei Xiaoren asked the soldiers to carry away a few boxes of Xia Kingdom coins, and she and He Qin slowly followed.
The shops on the street were closed, there were still many pedestrians, and some people in the city chose to leave the city for refuge, but most of them stayed, as if believing that Daning would not lose this battle.
He Qin looked left and right all the way, but he didn't look at it much, and sighed: "If only you were still the county magistrate of Qiushui County." ”
Mei Xiaoren was puzzled: "Why?" ”
"There is not as much food in Yun County as in Qiushui County, if you are still the county magistrate there, then I don't have to pay money to eat and drink."
Mei Xiaoren glanced at He Qin, "I didn't eat white food when I was the county magistrate. ”
"Gotta have it, I know that you, Master Mei, are a good official." He Qin made a move.
The two were talking and walking away, but a pedestrian stopped in the street because of their conversation.
The man looked back in the direction they had left, and even though he didn't see their faces clearly, he could hear them clearly, and knew that one of them had served as the county magistrate of Qiushui County...... Last name......
Next.
The Xia army called for battle again, this time they brought the long ladder and giant wood for the siege, just as Madame Wei expected, the Xia army planned to compete with them today.
Mrs. Wei led her men and horses out of the city to fight, while Mei Xiaoren listened to Mrs. Wei's orders and stayed on the city tower.
The flags were unfurled, the drums of war were sounded, and the war was about to break out. Both armies rushed forward, like torrents converging, and suddenly setting off a stormy wave.
Mei Xiaoren's gaze moved with Madame Wei, and she saw that the figure rushed into the enemy's crowd on horseback, swinging his sword and slashing the enemies who surrounded him, his moves were as fast as flowing water, and the killing was sharp and crisp.
In contrast, Mrs. Wei was much gentler when she was in college.
The enemy was outnumbered, and no matter how brave Mrs. Ren Wei and Zhu Jiajun were, they could not gain the upper hand, and the enemy invaded through the cracks like sand, carrying long ladders and giant trees in the direction of the city gate.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wei turned around and gave orders to her own army, and the Zhu family army untied the purse on their waists, grabbed the coins of Xia Guo and threw them around.
Coins rained down like pieces of flesh falling from a hungry wolf's eyes. Even if there is a tiger in front of him, the moment the hungry wolf sees the meat, his eyes instinctively follow the meat.
This time, Xia Jun really explained what it means to "see the money and open his eyes", some people lost their lives just by looking at it, some people didn't want to pick it up, their own people and their own people competed, pushing each other on the battlefield.
There are also Xia people who want to die and don't want money, but no matter how "high the wind and bright festival" they are, they can't save the Xia army camp that has been in chaos.
He Qin accompanied Mei Xiaoren to stand on the city tower and asked, "My lord, what do you say the people of Xia Guo are thinking about now?" ”
"Pie in the sky?"
"No!" He Qin shook his head and said seriously, "It should be-you Ningguo people are really rich!" ”
Mei Xiaoren couldn't help laughing, "I borrowed this money from the squire of Guanyun County, and I have to pay it back in the future." ”
The two armies gradually separated, and the arrogance of the Xia State gradually declined, and it was driven back by the Ning army, getting farther and farther away from the city gate.
Mei Xiaoren was talking to He Qin, when a force suddenly grabbed her hand and dragged her, and when she turned in a circle, she saw the arrow pass in front of her eyes.
The Xia army was unwilling to flee and began to let the archers fire arrows at the Ning army's camp and the city tower.
After Mei Xiaoren stood firmly, she saw who was the person who saved her.
Ye Zhi let go of his hand and beckoned Zhao Dutong to lead the troops to place the shield.
After the shields in the hands of the soldiers cast a barrier, Mei Xiaoren said the word "thanks" with deep eyes.
"No need to thank you, I saved you several times because I was afraid that something would happen to you, and the Prime Minister would be angry with Zhao Dutong for not protecting you well."
Ye Zhi's words were extremely indifferent, and he left after speaking, without staying for a moment.
