Chapter Ninety-Eight: Don't Be Cowardly
At the gate of Yangliu Town, an operation is quietly underway.
The doorkeeper was woken up by a sound of gongs and drums, and several people were so frightened that they only sat up in a trembling voice, what happened?
I rubbed my eyes before I saw Steward Lu's ninth uncle, uh!
Uncle Nine said loudly: "Today, our Yangliu Town ushered in a great happy event, the master decided to let the second young master come to inform the neighbors of this matter, now don't squeeze, don't make a sound, the big guy will arrange the arrangement together, our town is going to welcome a distinguished guest." ”
What are the distinguished guests?
Are you still in the mood to go to your relatives in these green and red years?
As soon as a few of the gatekeepers wanted to ask, they were gesticulated vigorously by the people standing on the side of the gate, and they had to walk over with a confused face.
Then before he could speak, he was pulled to a place where people outside the city could not see, and naturally someone was responsible for telling them about the current situation, and these people thought that the desert soldiers were so close to them, and they were suddenly frightened into a white sweat.
Here, the village chief and the others went to the top of the city gate to pull red cloths, erect colorful flags, hang lanterns, and bolt firecrackers.
The big guys are talking and laughing while doing these things.
In Ding Gui's words, you can't be afraid at this time, if you are scared, then cover it with a smile, the more relaxed we are, the more confused those desert soldiers will be.
When they are confused, they don't dare to take offense easily.
At the city gates, women, children, and children took the lead in sweeping the floor with brooms.
In addition to Ding Xiaodie's mother and daughter, there are also the village chief's daughter-in-law Yang, plus two brave old mothers in the Lu Mansion dressed as ordinary people.
Their mood is similar to that of Ding Gui and his party, what does it mean to sweep the floor, let's gossip and laugh at the same time, and discuss a few words: "I heard that there is a big man in our town today, do you know who it is?" ”
"I don't know, but Master Lu bothered us to prepare so much, then this big man must be very remarkable."
"Of course, I know."
Ding Xiaodie smiled innocently: "I know everything that the aunts don't know. ”
"Oh, so what are you going to tell me about?"
"The one who came to our town is a big general, I heard that he was a classmate and friend of Master Lu in the early years, this time the counterattack desert soldiers have won many battles, Master Lu heard that the general passed by here, so he had to invite people to come to the town to rest."
"Yo, Fluttershy, where did you hear that?"
"The second young master told me!"
"That's great, with this general in charge, presumably those thieves won't dare to provoke Yangliu Town again!"
As he spoke, everyone showed a relieved expression on their faces, with the general here, there is nothing to be afraid of, good days are still ahead.
The desert vanguard hiding in the woods outside the city gate heard the big knife in his hand fall to the ground with a clatter.
The general asked them a few pioneers to come and see the situation, but they didn't expect to find such a one??
Without allowing much thought, he hurriedly sent someone to report to the generals.
I heard that there was going to be a general in Yangliu Town, so the general had to come and see what was going on in person?
Unexpectedly, when he arrived, he happened to see Lu Xingluo, the second young master of the Lu family, standing on the top of the city gate and announcing: "At dawn today, our Qi Yanguo Town General Min Yuan will come to the town, and everyone must be careful to entertain at that time, as for the more than 10,000 vanguard troops he carried, our Lu family also has the ability to entertain, so you don't need to panic." Just do it as you usually do, sew cloth and sew cloth, go to the field and go to the field, don't worry about it. ”
"Second Young Master, with General Minyuan here, we will definitely put a hundred hearts up."
"Yes, yes, please rest assured, Second Young Master."
After hearing the words of the second young master in the city, the desert general frowned and asked in the desert language: "What is the origin of this Minyuan general?" ”
The soldiers around him hurriedly reported: "General Minyuan is the one who beat our desert soldiers to the ground, I heard that when we were besieged this time, it was this General Minyuan who gave the order, which beat our general ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was killed by the general with a look.
The generals had a headache, and in that case, it was too dangerous for them to stay here.
Even if they kill the townspeople now, they will wait for this Minyuan general, then when their follow-up troops come, even if they will not escape death.
Because the number of soldiers and horses of General Minyuan is really numerous.
"In that case, let's go on a different route! This is not suitable for the general to live. "The generals thought about it and felt that they couldn't bear this responsibility, if their own general fell into the hands of Min Yuan at this time, then he, a small general, would also have to be beheaded according to the law.
When his men heard his words, they all agreed to change their route immediately.
After all, General Minyuan will enter the city if it drags on any longer, and he will definitely pass through their area before, and it will be too late to retreat when the time comes.
At this point, the desert soldiers could only change their route in a hurry.
But they don't know Ding Xiaodie in the city, everything can only depend on God's will.
After the second young master finished speaking, everyone picked up the gongs, drums and copper basins, scattered them and beat them vigorously, shouting loudly while knocking: "At dawn, General Minyuan will bring ten thousand soldiers into the city, and all the neighbors will take food and water, and the general will work hard to protect us from killing the widows and thieves, so we must not be lazy!" ”
All of a sudden, the sound of the gong filled the night sky.
Everyone started to light the lights after a while, and the lights of every house were lit, giving people the appearance that they were all busy and preparing to meet General Minyuan.
Finally, it's dawn!
At the gate of the black hole, the light soaked in little by little, and the stone and wood on the city wall could finally be seen clearly.
At this time, everyone's nerves are the tightest.
The men quietly clenched the knives in their hands, and Ding Xiaodie, her mother and the others were protected behind them by the men.
She also had a small machete in her hand.
If the desert soldiers rush in, then fight.
Kill one without losing money, kill two and make money......
In short, hiding in the basement at this time will not help.
One second two seconds!!
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the city gates, but there was silence outside, and the wind blew the fallen leaves and fell to the ground.
This is probably the hardest and longest wait for everyone in this life!
Only a ray of sunshine...... Lightness was sprinkled over the heads of the people.
It's done?! ┗( ▔, ▔ )┛(*^▽^*)
It's dawn, the sun is out, and the desert soldiers haven't attacked, what does this mean?
The empty city plan succeeded, and they ran away!
"I ...... We did it! For a long time, Uncle Nine said in a trembling voice, he has lived this age, and he has not been so excited for a long time.
The others just wanted to cheer.
"Don't be careless, everyone continue to be vigilant."
Before everyone could react, Lu Xingluo clamped his legs and rode away.
He had to see with his own eyes if there were any desert soldiers to feel at ease, before he dared to let everyone relax, and only then did he dare to say that their empty city plan was successful!
