The people who fled in the middle of the night came one after another, and the low and dilapidated city walls of Xin'an County could not stop the fleeing people at all.

Thinking that with good political performance, Zhang County, who would be able to transfer out of this poor ditch, took off his greasy official hat and placed it in the court.

Since coming to Xin'an County, his seven-rank official hat has not been changed.

The same is true of the official uniform on his body, which has been washed and white.

Xin'an County, which is so poor that it can't make a fortune, has to endure harsh military service, and Zhang County, who has always been mixed with the people, smiled bitterly.

The movement on the street had already been transmitted into the dilapidated county office, and Zhang Xianling sat quietly and did not move.

A paper appointment imprisoned him here, but he had to accompany his wife and children to his death.

"Phew!"

Zhang Xianling slapped his palm on the public case, and the clicking sound continued, and the people who felt bad quickly jumped away.

"Click...... Rumble! ”

The crumbling public case completely ended its life and turned into two lying on the ground.

"Hey, when did Lao Tzu become a martial arts master!"

Zhang Xianling, who was in a daze, was a little complacent for a while, and he didn't have time to pick up the official hat that could rub out half a bowl of oil, and hurried to the backyard.

"Madam, quickly pack your luggage and leave the county office with Hongjun and Yu'er.

Go find Old Man Hu and ask him to take you to Kan'er Village to hide, and pick you up when the matter for your husband is settled. ”

"If you don't go, where can you go in the middle of the night!

Conscription has nothing to do with our family, what is there to hide! ”

Gu Zhuyue, the former lady, was born early, and was worn out by life to lose her good years.

"Let's go! It's too late.

If there is conscription, there will definitely be refugees, and if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your two children! ”

Zhang Xianling didn't dare to tell the truth, so he could only make the matter more serious.

"Dad, will there really be refugees? Are refugees as poor as the people in the city? Zhang Hongjun said ignorantly.

"Hurry up, don't ask so much, you guys go ......"

Zhang Xianling hurriedly sent his wife and children out of the county government and gave them the two only windproof lanterns.

The family ran to the Hu family in dodge, and happened to meet the Hu family who were traveling.

The Hu family nervously confronted Zhang Xianling, and for a moment they only heard the sound of torches burning.

"Lao Hu, don't be afraid!

This county order has something to entrust, please bring my wife and children with you......"

Zhang Xianling dragged the old beard aside to tell the reason, and took out another letter.

"Lao Hu, when you see the Lord of Purple Castle, please forward this letter to him, I hope he can see my face and take in my wife and children.

If he has the opportunity in the future, Zhang is willing to report it.

Please take care of them more on the way, and bear with them if there is anything inappropriate.

It's up to me to resist here, and I will ask Lao Hu Duojia to take care of them in the future.

Please! ”

Zhang County ordered a long time, and listened to the old beard's ears as if he was lonely.

"The county magistrate can't help it, it's us who dragged you down." Old man Hu replied with a long bow, picked up the envelope and urged his family to leave.

With the county magistrate's recommendation letter and road map, Old Man Hu's heart fell to the ground.

…

Those who left Xin'an County overnight walked out of the county without looking back, and most of them aimed for the nearby mountains.

Those who have a clear goal will slowly break away from the large army and go on another path.

Seeing this, there are clever people who simply follow suit, just like Liu Heizi and Hu Zhengye.

Because the relationship between them is relatively close, Old Man Hu can't do anything to drive them away.

"Since you follow my old Hu, you have to obey my command, and no one is allowed to make trouble.

Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people. ”

Several children and grandchildren of the Hu family, with big shoulders and round waists, stood behind the old man Hu with tools for building a house, glaring unkindly at the people who followed.

"Uncle Hu, don't worry, although I, Liu Heizi, am unreliable, I will definitely listen to Uncle Hu at the critical moment." Liu Heizi patted his chest and said.

"Uncle Hu, you are my own uncle, let me go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire." Hu Zhengye's face is not ordinarily thick, and even his uncle recognizes it.

", I'm not that old!

Get out of here first, there will be too many people following for a while, and it will be bad for all of us. ”

Old man Hu did not reveal where he was going, nor did he say that the county commander's family was here.

There are many people, there is a lot of trouble, and the old man Hu, who has his own ideas, definitely does not want to be troubled.

…

The next day, the empty gate of Xin'an County was opened, ushering in a small team of soldiers and horses.

Diao Rong, the leader, glanced suspiciously at the dead street, holding the reins in one hand and the hilt in the other.

When he saw the county government with a wide opening, Diao Rong's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Damn, even the broken temple in the mountains is better than this!"

Diao Rong, who was on fire, knew very well that this errand was in vain.

A county government can be kicked down with one kick, how can there be oil and water to fish.

Although the imperial court ordered that money should not be used for military service, it was only relative to the common people.

Wealthy families, a few will go to military service, either give money or buy people to replace them.

Halfway through a county, there is not a decent house, and it is unprecedented to be poor to this extent.

No wonder no one was willing to come to Xin'an County to pick up the recruits, so he came stupidly and stupidly.

…

"Zhang County Order, what about the soldiers recruited in Xin'an County?

Call out Lao Tzu and take it away, the war in the north is tight, and the fighter plane should be killed according to the law! ”

Diao Rong walked up to the court loudly, and when he saw the broken public case, his mouth almost twitched the back of his neck.

The two chairs of different colors in the public hall did not dare to sit down, and stood in the hall and looked at the people above.

Diao Rong, who was very unhappy, had a feeling of being in court and passed the trial, and his face was so black that he could drip ink.

"My lord must have seen the situation in the city all the way.

The people of Xin'an County have not had enough to eat for many years, and they will go out to beg for a living in early October every year.

No one will return until the beginning of spring next year, and the imperial court's conscription order is really impossible to complete. Zhang Xianling said indifferently, with a helpless face.

In order to be more convincing, Zhang Xianling got up and walked into the public hall and confronted Diao Rong.

"Your Excellency, you can see what I'm wearing.

There wasn't even a single errand officer in the county government, and I had to live on the ground myself.

If it weren't for this official uniform, I would have gone out with the people to beg for a living. ”

Diao Rong was not interested in Zhang Xianling's ragged clothes at all, his purpose was to take the recruits away.

Otherwise, he is the one who will be punished.

"Zhang Xianling is not cooperating with Diao's work, so I can only be sorry!"

Diao Rong waved his hand, and the soldiers behind stepped forward and quickly tied up Zhang County's order.

"Zhang County Order, Diao can only take you back to hand over the errand!"

Diao Rong glanced at Zhang County, who was tied up strongly, and was humane to his subordinates.

"Search the whole city, as long as it is a movable man, take it away to Lao Tzu."

"Yes!" Soldiers with knives scattered into the city, searching from house to house.

An hour later, thirteen old and frail men were tied back, and they staggered and staggered, and the wind could blow people down.

"Wow~ Yay! What about the others! ”

Diao Rong was so angry that no matter how small a county town was, there were thousands of people, and these thirteen old things who could die at any time were simply a great irony for him.
