Kumquat held the two black cloaks in front of him, and was embarrassed.

"Madame, which one to choose?" She asked.

Not to mention that there is no difference between the two black cloaks, it seems a little ridiculous to ask a blind woman this question, but the woman did not laugh, and stretched out her hand to squeeze the two cloaks seriously.

"Let's do it." She shook the cloak in Kumquat's right hand, "Dense and light, wear it properly." ”

Kumquat let out a sigh of relief and threw down the other: "It's good that there is a lady." ”

"Don't bring too much baggage, if there is no news for ten days, send baggage." Li Minglou walked out from the other side and instructed Zhongwu.

In response to the fifth grade, Kumquat hugged the cloak and shouted Miss.

Li Minglou stopped and looked at the girl's red eyes.

"I didn't take you there, not because I was afraid that you would drag you back." She thought for a moment and said, "It's because you can't live without you here." ”

Kumquat sniffed and nodded: "I will take care of Madame, Miss, you can go with confidence." ”

She stepped forward and unfolded her cloak and carefully tied it to Li Minglou.

Li Minglou looked at the woman standing in the hall again: "There are thieves and soldiers in turmoil, the state capital is trapped, and the people are in trouble, I want to go and see, you are here and waiting for me to come back." After a pause, "If I don't come back, someone will send you to see the crow." ”

The woman smiled and nodded as always, "Okay." ”

I don't know if I understand or not, Kumquat lowered her head and wiped her tears.

Li Minglou didn't care, took the woman's hand and shook it: "Then I'll go." ”

The woman slapped her hand in the palm of her hand, and her voice was soft and calm: "Don't be afraid, finches, go." ”

Li Minglou smiled at her, even though her face was behind a veil, and the woman was blind and couldn't see it.

Li Minglou stepped out of the hall, Zhong Wu followed, and Fang Er outside the door raised a black umbrella.

Kumquat helped the woman follow a few steps, and watched Li Minglou walk out of the inner house.

The chief bookkeeper led the officials of the county government to wait, and the words of dissuasion were no longer spoken, and who could stop what the woman had decided.

Seeing that the young lady Wu who had always sat in a car rode to the city gate, the thick cloak wrapped her whole body, and the man on the horse who followed closely was holding an umbrella, but there were a few more weapons on her body, and then looking at the solemn expressions of the officials such as the chief bookkeeper, the people finally believed that the news was true.

"Young lady, you can't go."

"It's too dangerous."

"Young lady, what will we do if you leave?"

Some are worried about the danger of the young lady's travel, and some are worried that they are uneasy on the back road, crying and shouting, surging towards Li Minglou.

Li Minglou did not respond, and came to the front of the assembled array under the support of the officials.

Compared with the panic and anxiety of the people, the soldiers looked surprised and excited, this was the first time that they had traveled long distances, and had to face the surging rebels, and the young lady and a woman had actually walked with them.

Young ladies are not afraid, what is there to be afraid of as a man?

Yuan Ji urged the horse to the front of the battle and shouted: "Dou County, Zhenwu Army, three thousand and one hundred generals, waiting to go on the expedition." ”

The chief bookkeeper took the wine prepared by an official and brought it to Li Minglou: "Young lady, please." ”

"My lord, Dou County will be handed over to you." Li Minglou looked at the main book, and then looked at the officials who followed him, "I've handed it over to you." ”

The chief bookkeeper nodded, and the officials also nodded, and Zhang Xiaoqian, who was behind, clenched the knife in his hand and straightened his back.

Li Minglou took the wine glass, lifted the corner of the veil and drank it all, holding the empty wine glass and looking at the people on both sides.

"I'll wait for the rear to worry, and I'll hand it over to you folks." She said loudly.

The official government has already said how important other cities are to the safety of Dou County, and how important the stability of Dou County is to the expedition, at this time, hearing Li Minglou's words, it is worth a thousand words, whether it is frightened or incomprehensible crying, it instantly becomes excited.

"Young lady, don't worry!" The crowd erupted in shouts, "Soldiers, don't worry! ”

The shouts grew louder and louder, and everyone waved their hands desperately.

Li Minglou put down the wine glass, and the soldiers unfurled a big flag, and the three words Zhenwu Army fluttered in the wind.

"Expedition." Li Ming said.

The assembled army roared like thunder: "Go to the march!" ”

......

......

In the warm spring of March, the flowers in Gwangju City do not bloom, and there are crying and wailing everywhere, and the women and children hiding behind their homes are hugging each other tightly, whether they are rich or poor, facing death is a general fear.

The decaying city wall stands even more mottled, like a veteran, proclaiming its pride to the world, and hoping to give some strength to the officers and soldiers standing on it.

Just looking at the stacks of corpses under the city gate, everyone's expressions were dull and dazed.

The official robe on the prefect of Gwangju was already dirty, and he muttered in embarrassment: "These corpses are blocking the city gate." ”

Changshi choked up on the side: "My lord, I can't care about whether it is unsightly now." ”

The prefect jumped up: "Is this a matter of observation?" The corpses were piled up so high that they could be used as ladders to climb up in no time. ”

"Be careful, sir."

With the prefect's shouts, the guards on both sides also shouted to knock him down, and then Changshi's screams.

With a bang, a stone bullet smashed up, and smashed over the fallen prefect and Changshi on the city wall, and a pit suddenly appeared on the ground of the city wall.

There was no time for the prefect to scream again, and the sound of dense footsteps and shouts sounded outside the city gate, and the sluggish resting soldiers on the city wall also picked up their bows and crossbows again.

A new round of siege and defense of the city has begun.

It's just that this time can you hold on, the prefect lay on the ground and didn't get up, his tears wet his sleeves, how can he die without pain?

"The army of the eldest prince is coming!"

"Open the gates and surrender!"

Accompanied by a dense rain of stone bullets and arrows, and a chaotic roar, the roar was more terrifying than weapons.

These soldiers and horses that made them exhausted were only a small part, and Huainan Dao was roaming around with An Dezhong's army, as well as the Daowei army that had surrendered.....

Will they be able to hold the city? And what's the point of doing that?

"The city is broken or dead, look at the corpses that filled the moat." Zhu Tong held a big knife in his hand and shouted, "The rebels are brutal, they will only be violent and fierce, they will be killed if they resist, and they will be sent to the front as prisoners to block arrows, fill trenches, and be used as human ladders, they are all dead, and they can't be surrendered if they die in battle, and there is still hope of immortality in the war, we have already asked for reinforcements!" ”

"Are there any reinforcements? The Observer has surrendered. A soldier muttered.

"The observer envoy surrendered, half of the Huainan Provincial Guards surrendered, Huainan Provincial still has Dou County, and there are also guards who are not Huainan Provincial Guards." Zhu Tong shouted, no longer looking behind him, because a wave of soldiers stepped on the corpse and set up a ladder to climb the city wall, he raised a big knife and let out a roar and slashed down, "We have reinforcements!" ”

The soldiers who had just climbed the city wall were slashed by him and fell down screaming, and Zhu Tong looked at the soldiers under the city wall, surging like ants.

The generals standing not far from the city gate also watched this scene, and compared to Zhu Tong's despair, his expression was joyful.

They pretended to be bandits and turned into stragglers in Xuanwu for so long, and the credit for the rebellion was originally there, but in the end, the result was not to let the Governor of An Dadu Ruyi, but to cheapen a small mongrel named Wu Ya'er, the Governor of Dadu was angry and angry, and they didn't dare to show their merits.

Now the opportunity has finally arrived.

"Take the city of Gwangju!" He raised his long knife and pointed ahead and shouted, "This is our first dedication to the eldest prince!" ”
