Ever since I entered the Feng family's house, I began to be glad that I wasn't caught. Later, when I saw the young lady of their family, my heart was full of compassion for the little life, and I forgot how I got here by mistake. If we think about it carefully, we rushed out of the alley through the low gate, why didn't the Southern pursuers on the heels of the Confederate army open the door and rush over? Even if it was hidden, so many people still carried torches, and the door was there, and they would have seen it.

"The little old man couldn't be more familiar with Jinan City, and he can close his eyes to any street and alley. Finding the three is naturally easy. As for why the three were saved, it is also very simple. Your Northern Army is about to enter Jinan Mansion, and our lord is an official in the court, so he will naturally be affected. You have also seen that Miss's condition is precarious, and it is impossible to flee south at home. There was only one guy left in the house, a man who ran errands, a maid who served the young lady, and the lady and me, the old and immortal housekeeper. We only hope that the three strong men can say a thing or two in front of your generals, so as to ensure that my lady and young lady are thoughtful. ”

It makes sense. I was going to ask about that, but then I thought about it. Now that you've run out, what are you doing with that heart? Now the main thing is how to figure out how to get out of the city.

"We are grateful that you rescued us from the hands of the Southern Army. We're just ordinary soldiers, and we're not going to be able to help you. ”

"It's better to save than not to save, even if there is a little hope. "Besides," said the old man, "at least you won't kill us." ”

"Dare to ask the father-in-law's surname, if possible, we will try our best to protect the father-in-law. "Cao Yuniang is the most soft-hearted, probably because of her mother's surname complex.

"At this age, it's not a pity to die. My grandfather's surname is Feng Mingtai, who was the secretary of the Guozijian in the Hongwu Dynasty, and now serves as the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites in the court. My young lady's name is Feng Wan'er, and she is the only child of my lord. If the strong man can keep the old lady thoughtful, the little old man is willing to be a cow and a horse to repay the emergency. ”

"We made a note of it, but we can't stay in the city tonight, we have to go out of the city. Huang Zining said. We do have to sneak out of the city before dawn. Otherwise, it will also delay the military aircraft, and it will be a capital crime.

The little old man went to his wife to report it, and took the three out of the city. ”

That old man's name is Feng Fu, and he has been a subordinate in the Feng family all his life until he reaches the position of housekeeper. He has also been in the city of Jinan all his life and has witnessed the rise and fall of the city for decades. He knew everything about the city and took us through the night, without lights, without moonlight, but without delay.

On the issue of going out from the north gate or the south gate, I had a disagreement with Huang Zining. Huang Zining's statement is that there are not many northern troops stationed outside the south gate, and there are naturally few southern troops defending the city, so there is a greater chance of going out. And I advocate going out through the north gate. Outside the north gate, the water surrounded by the northern army was impassable, and the soldiers defending the city must have paid attention to the movements of the northern army outside the city, and they had no time to take care of one or two people running from inside the city to outside the city.

In fact, the most important thing is that I told Zhang Huaishun to use the fireworks as a number, so that they could save the three of us.

"Let's go out from the north gate," Feng Fu said his thoughts, "As long as the north gate is out of the city, it will be safe, and the southern army will not dare to chase it out at all." It's hard to say about the south gate, once discovered, in order to prevent leakage, they will definitely send people out to pursue. Where can you outrun a war horse on two legs? ”

Feng Fu was right, and in the end we decided to go out through the north gate.

The southern army at the north gate was really ready for battle, and everyone was nervous. Officially, in the middle of the night, when people were sleepy and tired, no one fell asleep in the city tower.

"Mr. Wang, this sharpens the knife, but tomorrow is about to fight?" Feng Fu went out first and followed the head of the city gate downstairs to guard the city gate.

"Hehe, I can't figure it out and we're going to fight tonight. The general in Feng Fu's mouth didn't seem to be very worried, "Old official Feng, what are you doing at the gate of the city at night? Didn't you escape in advance? When the northern army comes in, someone like your family who is an official in the court will be unlucky." ”

"You know, you know, you can't run. The family has long since run out. As he spoke, Feng Fu took out two ingots of silver from his arms. To be honest, this was the first time I saw currency after I arrived in the Ming Dynasty, and it was hard currency. Hiding in the dark, under the background of the torches, the two ingots of silver looked particularly ambiguous. If this is in modern times, a silver ingot is at least seven taels, how much money does it have to be exchanged?

"Old Guan'er Feng, what are you doing!" the general of the king was shocked, "Don't you want to bribe the miscellaneous family." Even if the miscellaneous family has a life, it may not have a life. ”

"Mr. Wang, don't be too careful. The old illness of the young lady in the family has been committed again, and the lady does not know where to hear the prescription, saying that the leopard blood is used as medicine to induce the miracle effect of the young lady's illness. You said that I am going to get leopard blood when the army is in chaos. This money was originally meant to buy leopard blood, but it couldn't be bought anyway. Wang said that the general manager took care of the little old man more, and this money should be given to the general manager, and it will be easy to deal with one or two when he comes to the field in the future. ”

I think that the little girl probably has a cold and fever and injured her lungs, and the leopard's blood is a hot thing, where can it be used as medicine. At that time, Chinese medicine was not very reliable, and there were even more witch doctors, how many people were treated by medicine so inexplicably.

I don't have time to lament this ignorant era, Feng Fu helped us hold off most of the soldiers guarding the gate, and we had to go out from the north gate in such a short time. There are only two soldiers left at the door, and the lock of the gate cannot be opened by manpower alone, so it must be opened with a linkage mechanism. So there is no need for too many people to guard it.

However, in order to make it easier for soldiers and political axes to enter and exit, there was also a small gate made of stone gates on the side of the city gate. The small gate was next to the garrison's station, and it was not an easy matter to get around. Fortunately, Feng Fu was there to attract attention.

The barracks was smoky, the smell of the soldiers' stinky feet and the smell of smoking smoke were a mess of indescribable smells, which was really suffocating. I'm better with Huang Zining, but Cao Yuniang can't stand it as a girl.

Just when Huang Zining twisted the mechanism to make the stone jack gate rise, Cao Yuniang sneezed twice angrily. Originally, it didn't hurt to sneeze, it's a normal thing. But when a group of old men were sleeping, they suddenly heard a woman sneezing, and that was not a bad thing.

"Who?" there was always the more alert soldier, especially in the face of the great war.

Something bad happened, it was discovered. The stone gate had slowly risen, but the soldiers who woke up reacted much faster than the stone gate had risen. I stood far back, and seeing that the situation was urgent, I could only pick up an iron gun and hold it in front of me. Fortunately, the passage of the military station was still quite narrow, and an iron gun came sideways, almost blocking the entire passage.

It's a pity that I've had dozens of people alone. Both feet were stuck in the brick cracks, and they only lasted more than ten seconds. was pushed away. At first, because they were close to the soldiers, they didn't use their weapons. As soon as I pulled back, several guns were coming at me.

Those armors on the clothes have a little effect, but they are similar to "anti-gentleman but not villain". Two guns were pushed back by the pieces of iron. However, three more guns pierced through the gaps in the armor. First of all, I felt cold, it was the kind of winter when a piece of cold iron stuck to the skin. Then came the pain, the piercing pain. The pain made me more awake, and even passing out became a luxury. I could feel the wound coming out of the tip of the gun, and the blood coming out of it ran down my body to the soles of my shoes.

Those ten seconds were enough for Huang Zining to pull Cao Yuniang from under the jack gate and run out of the city. The defense line in the hearts of those soldiers of the Southern Army is the city wall of Jinan City. If the walls are opened, then they are finished. So a group of people were busy destroying the mechanism that opened the jack gate. I watched them scramble, but there was nothing I could do to stop them.

I handed over the fireworks left to me by Zhang Huaishun to Cao Yuniang before, and I don't know if she remembers to put them in the sky. The blood on my body must have been getting less and less, and I was starting to get confused. All I remember is that when my eyes were about to turn dark, I seemed to see the mountain baby. He was alone, and he carried the jack gate on his shoulder.

And then I didn't know anything.;
