Chapter 79: I Have a Way

The person who came was Ergou, and at this time he was nervously fartizing, and said:

"There are people in Qu County who are rebelling, and now they are coming towards us, hurry up, pack up your things and run!"

Lu Ming asked with a heavy face:

"Who rebelled? How many of them are there? Where are you now? ”

The second dog was stunned for a moment and looked at this prince.

"Uh...... I heard that I was forced by the government, and I can't inquire about the rest. ”

Xu Baixiao interjected on the side and asked:

"Where did you get the news?"

"There are merchants who have escaped from there, and after entering the city, they have spread the word about it, and now everyone in the city knows about it."

Lu Ming and Xu Baixiao glanced at each other, and then at Yun Yu.

The latter, obviously thinking about it as well, finally shook his head and said:

"Let's go, go to the county government and see if there is any more news from Xu Danian."

Nowadays, there is too little information to analyze, and more information must be obtained before you can decide whether to go or stay.

As soon as a few people walked out of the house, Xing Fei ran and said:

"Brother Yu'er, Shizi, Lord Xu is invited."

Several people nodded solemnly, and quickened their pace towards the county office.

After entering the county office, he ignored the surprised eyes of everyone looking at Lu Ming, and didn't understand why this prince came to Qi County again.

After passing through the hall, Xu Danian was talking to a middle-aged man in the house.

After seeing a few people, Xu Danian bowed down and saluted Lu Ming and Xu Baixiao.

Then he said: "I believe you have all heard about Qu County, this is Chen Yin, a cloth merchant from Qu County, and he knows the beginning and end of some things. ”

Without waiting for others to speak, Yun Yu took a step forward directly, looked at Chen Yin and asked:

"Where are the thieves now, and how many are there? How long do you expect them to get to Qi County? Let's answer these questions first! ”

He didn't care about the cause and effect of the rebellion, he just wanted to know how many people the other party had now and how long it would take to get to Qi County.

Then make a defensive plan or a runaway plan, and the rest, it's none of his business.

Chen Yin looked at the young man in front of him blankly, turned his head and looked at the other three, and seeing that none of them spoke, he spoke:

"I don't know the number of people, but looking at the appearance, there are more than 20,000 people, all of them are people who don't have enough to eat, and it is estimated that it will be less than three days at most from here."

Yun Yu's mind quickly turned, and then he asked Xu Danian:

"Possibly keep?"

Xu Danian's face darkened, and he shook his head and said:

"There were only 500 officers and soldiers defending the city, and with all the yamen personnel, it was less than 600. How can I keep it? ”

Yun Yu rubbed his chin and muttered:

"Five hundred, that's enough."

Everyone was startled and looked at him with wide eyes.

Five hundred people defend the city, and the other party has more than 20,000, so it's not enough for the god of war to come, right?

Even if people are tired, they can exhaust you 500 people, enough fart!

Xu Danian scolded:

"Boy, this is not child's play, don't talk nonsense."

Lu Ming said the same:

"You don't know anything about the military, don't talk nonsense."

The cloth merchant Chen Yin also looked at Yun Yu like a monster and nodded violently.

"Yes, yes, how can five hundred people defend the city, hurry up!"

He escaped all the way from Qu County, and he had enough rest at this time, and he planned to continue on the road immediately after a while, and only when he went to Fuzhou City could he feel at ease.

Yun Yu looked at Xu Danian solemnly, and asked:

"Now ask for help from Fuzhou, how long will it take to mobilize troops to come over?"

Xu Danian was stunned, does this kid really have a way?

He rarely saw Yun Yu speak seriously, and seeing that his appearance didn't seem to be joking at the moment, he replied after thinking about it:

"Ten days! It will take at least 10 days! ”

Lu Ming also looked at Yun Yu in surprise, could he really use five hundred soldiers to resist more than 20,000 rebellious victims?

There was another silence, and Yun Yu frantically calculated what Qi County could use now.

Finally, he said:

"Lord Xu, please repair the book immediately and ask for help, I have a way to keep Qi County for at least half a month!"

It's not that he doesn't want to run, but in this way, the family business he has saved for more than a year will be ruined, and he is really reluctant!

Moreover, now it is not to repel those victims, but to hold Qi County and not lose it, waiting for reinforcements to come, and this rebellion will be self-defeating.

He is still confident that he can do this.

Everyone was completely shocked by these words, and Lu Ming blurted out:

"Do you have any way to stop those thieves, let's talk about it first, if it is really feasible, this son of the world will stay with you to fight the enemy!"

When Yun Yu heard him say this, his heart suddenly became happy.

If Lu Ming can stay, it is estimated that if the news is transmitted to Fuzhou, the speed of those reinforcements can be three points faster.

Before he could speak, Xu Danian and Xu Baixiao said in unison:

"Never!"

"The son of a daughter can't sit down, the son of the world is the body of a daughter, how can he stay in such a dangerous place, or leave quickly and go to Fuzhou to mobilize reinforcements."

"Yes, yes, the prince is still leaving quickly, I am waiting here, and I will never let those thieves break into the city."

Yun Yu snorted, looked at a few people and said:

"It's not dangerous, it's just defending the city, where is all this danger?"

"The other party is just ordinary people, and they are not regular troops, let's close the city gate, and then stand on the wall, it will be difficult for them to break through, at least they don't have siege equipment, right?"

"Take 10,000 steps back, they built a ladder to attack, don't we have so many people in Qi County? Go up to the city wall, smash stones, pour gold juice, right? ”

"Guarding him for ten days and half a month, it's absolutely no problem! Five hundred soldiers were assigned to the four gates of the city, and the people were taught how to deal with the enemy. ”

Everyone: "......"

That's the way you say? I'll you!

Xu Danian was the first to speak:

"If nothing else, boy, how do you convince the people to go up to the wall to meet the enemy? This is a fatal thing, and who would want to risk their lives to climb the walls? ”

Yun Yu nodded, yes, I finally have a decent question.

"Open a position! Calculated in terms of grain, but anyone who is willing to go to the city wall to defend the city will be given three stones of grain first, and then according to the military salary and military merit, those who have merit will be rewarded! Triple bereavement pension for the dead! That should be fine, right? ”

Xu Danian's eyelids jumped sharply, Lao Tzu's grain is for emergency use next year, so you will give disaster?

But at the same time, he had to admit that under the temptation of such high-level interests, there were definitely many people who were willing to defend the city.

After all, with today's grain prices, three stones of grain is the life of countless people!

Yun Yu's voice continued to sound:

"This is just the first step, I still have some money left, and I will also take it out as a reward for killing thieves, and settle it every day."

"And I predict that as long as the first day is blocked, after the people have confidence in their hearts, they will have all the fear in their hearts and actively cooperate with the transfer of the government."

"At that time, as long as the government and the people are united, tens of thousands of disaster victims and displaced people, what is there to fear?"

I have to say that his method has successfully moved the people present.

As long as you think about it carefully, those outside are the disaster victims, who are not well fed and clothed, and they have come from afar.

And the people of Qi County are not hungry, but can defend with the advantage of the city.

In contrast, it seems that Qi County is not so difficult to defend, and tens of thousands of enemies are not so frightening.
