Chapter 60: Men close women's walls

"How's the hand?" Xi Bei asked her.

"It's fine."

"You go behind me and take a break."

Meng Changqing was not reckless and temporarily hid behind Xi Bei.

At this moment, Meng Changqing heard the sound of a horn not far behind him.

Reinforcements arrived, and the military flag held high had a huge beam written on it.

Wei Fangyun personally entered the battlefield with 20,000 reinforcements.

With their joining, the pressure on the soldiers of the two battalions dropped sharply, and the first to retreat were the civilians, and then the wounded at the front.

Meng Changqing went down to the battlefield and learned that there were people building walls on the city wall.

Liang chirped to bandage the wound on her arm, "It's the women, they themselves rushed up to build the city wall." ”

"Good! How dare you live up to such sincerity. Meng Changqing stood up and ran towards the city wall.

The people who had just retreated from the battlefield saw that the women were building a wall, and the county lord had also gone, so they should go too.

All the people, except those who were seriously wounded, went up to the wall.

Doing anything passively and actively doing it is completely different.

Driven by others, it is inevitable that there will be dissatisfaction, and I always want to be lazy, but if I really want to do it, I will do my best.

Originally, it took three days to build the city wall, but it took all the people one day and one night to successfully build the city wall in Beishan County.

The Yan army attacked several times and also wanted to increase its troops, but by the time their reinforcements arrived, the city walls had already been built.

All the Great Liang soldiers retreated to the city walls, occupied the high ground, and fought with each other for another day.

The Yan army never had any chance to break through the wall of Beishan County, so it had to withdraw its troops temporarily.

In the fifteenth year of Yongxing, the fourth day of the third month.

The city wall of Beishan County was completed.

In the palace, the emperor was looking at the sixteenth secret report sent by Chu Mufeng.

The content of the secret report is that the city wall of Beishan County is still five miles away, but the winter snow has been civilized, and Lord Meng is worried that the Yan people will attack Beishan County in the near future.

The emperor put down the secret report, and it happened that the Taifu had arrived outside.

As soon as Taifu saw the emperor's expression, he knew that he must have something on his mind, and now although there are many things in the court, there is no too urgency, so there is only the matter of Beishan County.

Since the prefect of Liangzhou played, the emperor has been looking forward to the completion of the city wall of Beishan County every day.

Now that the two-month period is about to pass, I wonder how the city wall of Beishan County is built?

"Your Majesty." Taifu pretended not to see his thoughts, and reported the homework of the two princes.

"The two princes have made progress, especially the three princes have made significant progress, I left a question a few days ago, and today the three princes gave me three answers."

The emperor was not in the mood to listen to this.

"Taifu, let's take a look at this."

Taifu hurriedly lowered his head, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare, if there is something, Your Majesty will tell the old minister." ”

"Okay." The emperor threw the secret report on the table, "The snow in Beishan County has melted, and the Yan people will not give Meng Changqing the so-called two-month period." ”

Taifu said: "This is nature. ”

"Now the city wall of Beishan County is still five miles away." The emperor asked, "Taifu thinks that the last five miles can be built?" ”

"Your Majesty." Taifu asked him rhetorically: "When was this official document in your hand written?" ”

"February twenty-nine."

"Today is the fourth day of the third month." Taifu reminded him, "Whether the city wall can be built or not is most likely settled in Beishan County. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, an urgent war report was presented outside the study.

"Biography." The emperor held the imperial book case with both hands, and even breathed a little lighter.

The courtiers who delivered the war report came in on their knees, "Back to Your Majesty, the prefect of Liangzhou will present an urgent war report of eight hundred miles." ”

Father-in-law Qian immediately trotted to take the battle report and deliver it to the emperor.

The courtier, who knelt on the ground, continued: "On the 30th of February, Beishan County was invaded by a small number of Jiemaru savages, and in early March, 20,000 Yan troops attacked Beishan County, and two camp guards in Hongjia County and Weishan County were sent to fight. ”

Taifu stood up and asked the adult, "How is the magistrate of Beishan County?" ”

"Meng Changqing, the magistrate of the county, is guarding Beishan County with the soldiers."

Taifu followed up and asked, "How is the current battle situation?" ”

"Back to Taifu, this battle report does not indicate the victory or defeat."

After reading the battle report, the emperor couldn't sit still, stood up and walked around several times, finally stood still, and said to the adult: "Send someone to Liangzhou immediately." ”

"Your Majesty." Taifu said, "The snow in Liangzhou has melted too quickly this year, and Changqing has encountered a war for the first time at a young age, and he can have such an attitude, which is far beyond many people." ”

The emperor nodded, "He is Meng Sixing's son after all." ”

"Whoever he is, he is only fourteen years old." Taifu knelt down at the emperor, "The minister wants to ask for a favor for that child, no matter what happens in Beishan County, if that child can survive by chance, please don't blame him, Your Majesty." ”

"I know, Taifu, please get up."

Beishan County is now the real Beishan County.

Meng Changqing came to see the wounded who were recuperating in the stove room.

The Yan army retreated, and the soldiers of the two battalions and the reinforcements that came later also returned to the camp.

The wounded who remain here now are the people who rushed into battle with Meng Changqing at the beginning.

Having lived and died together, there was no need for guards to stop Meng Changqing and these people, and the people were very enthusiastic about this young adult who led them to kill together.

"Are you feeling better today?" Meng Changqing asked Zeng Laosan, who was lying on the door panel, "I see that your face is not bloody, and you will have to take that medicine for a few more days." ”

Zeng Laosan nodded flatteredly.

"The external wound medicine should also be changed frequently, where is your brother?"

"He's gone to eat."

Meng Changqing said: "The conditions here are simple, and there are no good ingredients for you to nourish your body. ”

"Wherever the adults say, there will be millet rice to eat while lying down, and I really can't think of it in the past."

"Yes." Another person said, "In the past, I didn't dare to think of such a good official as an adult!" The Yan people are gone, and the adults are willing to give us food. ”

"Isn't it natural for you to go to war with me, and I will heal your wounds, and take care of your food and drink." Meng Changqing said: "You can recuperate here with peace of mind, of course, if you feel that the injury is almost healed, and you want to go home and continue to recuperate, you can go to Master Zhang's place to get rice and then go home." ”

"Thank you, sir." The wounded thanked each other.

Meng Changqing said, "I want to thank you, if you don't have your courage, the pass of the day can't be blocked, and this wall can't be built today, I, Meng Changqing, remember your kindness, I will report to the Lord of Futai and ask for grace for you." ”

With this, it is necessary to put the benefits of words into practice, and the people are of course happy.

When Meng Changqing went out, he almost collided with a person, who was the plum who was rescued by her.

Meizi was very excited to see Meng Changqing, and thanked Meng Changqing again for saving his life.

Meng Changqing said with a smile: "I saved your life earlier, but you also saved my life, I know that you were the leader in building the wall that day." ”

A few days later, in Beishan County, next to the city wall near Hongjia County, a stone tablet was placed.

There are six big characters written on the stele: the man closes the women's wall, and there are two lines of small characters next to it: with this stele to remember the grace of the people of Liangzhou counties who sacrificed their lives to keep each other, Meng Changqingli, the first magistrate of Beishan County.
