Chapter 831: Right and Wrong
"Uh...... I also have a question. Chen Ping suddenly said, "I want to ask for advice." ”
"If you have something to say, say it." Baili Road. Chen Ping is a person from the right side of the mountain, so the word is the right side of the mountain.
"Have you forgotten one thing? I haven't sent anyone to Xuanming Prefecture, White Dragon City, and Niutou Mountain to ask for help! Chen Ping thought that they had forgotten for a hundred miles, but how could this kind of thing be forgotten? Shouldn't you do it right away?
"Oh, that doesn't have to be." Baili said lightly, "Bailongcheng is far away, and the reinforcements can't come for a while, Xuanming Prefecture is still separated from us by the Bailongjiang River, and now it is the autumn flood, and it is inconvenient to cross the river, as for the soldiers of Niutou Mountain, it can't be moved easily...... The main thing is that it is not necessary. ”
"Chen Shanyou, you are not so timid, the last time the people came to attack, didn't you go to the city in person to play with them, why are you afraid?" Li Tanhua said with a smile.
"Master, I'm not afraid, I'm very afraid!" Chen Ping said, "The last time I came, it was only a few hundred people from the Wu Khan, and there were no siege equipment, so I didn't expect him to dare to attack, but this time there were more than 20,000 people, how can our thousands of rabble be opponents." ”
"Twenty thousand is a fart? It's not enough for this young master to step on the ground! Li Tanhua snorted at Ouyang Yunyi, and Ouyang Yunyi glared at him angrily.
"There are 20,000 people here, but there are not so many people who go to the city, and he also divides his troops to defend the roads in the south, west, and east, and he has to send people to guard the grain and grass, I estimate that there are more than 10,000 soldiers in the city, right?" Chen Xiaohu said.
"We don't fight them, we just can't hold out, as long as we can hold out for ten days and eight days, they will also retreat." Hundred miles of green clouds.
Why?
"Heaven must not be divulged." Li Tanhua smiled, "If I tell you Chen Shanyou, then I have to kill you." ”
"Come on, you're not worried, but I'm worried about a bird, my wife also said that I'm worried about not seeing the old, anyway, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and the matter is that people live and die by the sky, go to a ball!" Chen Ping was out anyway.
In fact, Chen Ping is really not afraid of death, who dares to mix in Xuan Ming City if he is afraid of death?
Don't look at him now that he is nearly middle-aged, bloated, and out of breath when he walks, because he suffers from severe tracheitis...... His wife is strict and he is afraid of his wife's illness, so he always gives people a very whimsical feeling, but who knows that he was also a well-known hero back then!
He himself is not afraid, but he is afraid that his wife and daughter will suffer with him, if it weren't for himself being this unlucky official in Xuanming, how could they live such a hard life of worry?
also once sprouted a retreat, and discussed with his wife that he would simply fight for this official and go back to his hometown to farm?
Sister-in-law Chen also disagreed, although the life here is hard, but at least you can eat a full stomach, if you go back to farming, the harvest will depend on God's reward!
If you collect more and collect less, you still have to pay the rent, right?
Since you don't do it, you have to serve as a servant like others, right?
Is it bitter that you can eat with your body? Although the labor is not so hard as to lose your life, if you are conscripted into the army to fight......
You can't know whether you live or die, but who do we have to rely on?
Some time ago, I heard a fellow who came to collect fur say that our mountain is not peaceful now, there are thieves and bandits everywhere, and the officers and soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty have not been exterminated for so many years, but there are more of them......
But then again, marry a chicken and marry a dog with a dog, since I follow you, then go all the way to the dark, and never look back if you hit the south wall!
Whether you go or stay is your master, we will follow you!
Chen Ping thought about it, and it was indeed like this, in fact, the best place to settle down was Yanyun County, except for Xuan Ming, a tattered stall that his grandmother didn't kiss and his grandfather didn't love, other places were very good.
It's just that he is an official after all, if he resigns and doesn't do it, he will be embarrassed to stay in Yanyun......
"Shanyou, you said you weren't worried, but your brows were tightly locked, so you can see that there is still something?" Baili saw his thoughts at a glance, "Are you worried that after the city is broken, our little women and children will suffer?" ”
"Oh, boss, you're really like a god!" Chen Ping was shocked, "I can see the bottom of people's hearts!" But I'm ashamed, I was thinking about my own daughter just now, and I haven't thought about anything else, but boss, I also think that while the people haven't besieged the city yet, why don't I send the old and weak women and children out first? ……”
"Shanyou, if I say this, you can just know it, you don't have to spread it, our Xuanying City is actually not tight, don't look at the Buhe soldiers pressing the realm, in fact, they can't move our fur, but if I say this, I'm afraid that the big guy will think I'm arrogant and ignorant...... Take 10,000 steps back and say, if you can't hold it, can we open the city and surrender? "Baili Road.
"Don't stare at me, if I surrender in Kaicheng, then Bu He will not only not kill me, but also treat me as a guest, maybe I will beg me to be the magistrate of Xuanming City, then naturally I will not slaughter the city and kill people, when Prince Moro fought Changshan Prefecture, Liu Congshu opened the door and surrendered, and the people of Changshan were unharmed......" Baili's words became more and more weird.
Chen Ping also became more and more incomprehensible.
"We are officials, the first thing to protect is the people who call us parents, if we can't even save the lives of the people, what's the use of protecting such a city? What's the use of fighting desperately to the death? Hehe, we left a good reputation when we died, but I don't know that it was all written by the blood of the common people! ”
"Of course, it is our duty to protect the people, and it is also our mission to defend the country and protect the frontier...... Hehe, there are a lot of words, in short, you Chen Shanyou can rest assured, our city will not be broken, and the old and weak women and children will not suffer if the city is broken. "That's all there is to say.
There is such a truth contained in a few words, I am afraid that Chen Ping will have to ponder for a long, long time to understand, and the most difficult thing to understand is the four words 'which is right and which is wrong'.
But one thing is certain, that is, Baili relies on Chen Ping quite a lot, otherwise with his character, he would not have said so many things.
Three days later, at dusk, Bu He led a large army to the city, set up a company camp, surrounded the Xuanming, and looked from all sides of the city wall, it was really impassable.
"Bu He still knows how to fight." Li Tanhua looked at the other party's formation and expressed his approval, "No wonder his tribe has not been annexed by Mo Xuan." ”
"Monk, the wolf's head flag on the small dirt slope is Buhe's Chinese army tent, right?" Ouyang Yunyi on the side held an iron spear in his hand, eager to try, "You said that I should go and cut off that big sword and give them a little dismount, okay?" ”
"Okay, why not, how good it would be for you to cut off Bu He's head by the way, that's a big head work." Li Tanhanami.
"Right? I think it's okay! Ouyang Yunyi was overjoyed, and walked out with a gun, only to feel that something was wrong when he walked to the door, "Dead monk, are you playing with me again!" ”
