Longyou County, a county in the middle of Zhongping County, is also the last barrier of Zhongping County. After the Luo Yishui rebelled in Kaiping County, Zhongping County immediately dispatched three thousand county soldiers to arrive here to establish a defense line. x Chinese x novel... I hope to block Luo Yishui for a while here so that Zhongping County can support the arrival of the Hu Ben Army.

But as the Luo Yishui rebels were unstoppable, they had almost arrived in Longyou County in less than a month from Kaiping County to Zhongping County. In front of Luo Yishui, the resistance of Zhongping County was like snow and encountered the scorching sun. After a little resistance, the smoke disappeared. Some even scattered birds and beasts without resistance. Some even went directly to Luo Yishui.

The people of Longyou County had already escaped. Jian, the commander of the army from Zhongping County, stayed with his teeth and stayed for a few days. When the spy returned, Huang Hao, the troops of Luo Yishui's vanguard troops, were only one day away from Longyou, and he finally couldn't hold on.

Run, if you don’t run now, you can’t run!

Standing on the city wall and looking at the direction of Kaiping County, Jian sighed, "Your Majesty, it's not that I'm not loyal, I have only three thousand people, how can I fight against the other 100,000 troops, not to mention that the opposite side is Luo Yishui, the former military god of Dayue. He is an unknown man. He is nothing in front of such a cruel man!

If I don't surrender to him, I am already loyal to Your Majesty. I will bring these three thousand people back to Zhongping County, which can be regarded as preserving some vitality for the defense of Zhongping County.

After finding a lot of reasons for himself, Jian Fang finally let go of the last little obstacle in his heart, feeling that his approach was simply the most correct decision. The mantis arm blocking the chariot here was just a waste of life for these soldiers.

"General Jian, General Jian, can't get out!" A lieutenant rushed up the city wall like a flying rushing, panting.

"Why can't you get out?" Jian Fang was a little puzzled.

"Someone blocked the city gate!" said the lieutenant.

Jian Fang was furious: "Who blocked the city gate? What did you eat? Can people block the city gate? Where did these people come from? Who are they?"

"I can't catch up!" The captain spread his hands, his face full of embarrassment.

"What?" Jian Fang felt it was simply unreasonable.

"It's the family of Dashui Xiao!" the captain whispered.

Jian Fang understood after the captain said this. Xiao Zhenggang's hometown was in Zhongping County, and Xiao Shuai had already died in Kaiping County. The person who killed him was Luo Yishui. On Luo Yishui's march, Xiao Dashui's head was hung high above the rebel flag, which made many officials and civilians of the Zhongping Army frightened.

"I'll go!" Jian Fang said angrily, strode down. He naturally admired Marshal Xiao, but Marshal Xiao was already dead. He couldn't let them die here like Marshal Xiao.

Taking two steps at a time, Jian Fang rushed to the city gate, and then he understood why the captain couldn't tell. Because there were not a few people coming from the opposite side, but a large group of black people. After a rough estimate, I was afraid there were thousands of people. And the one standing in front was actually a white-haired old woman.

Thousands of people were all wearing mourning clothes and covered in plain clothes. Behind the old woman, several men with a face similar to Xiao Zhenggang were carrying a coffin on their shoulders, and everyone showed sadness and anger.

It was Mr. Xiao’s wife! The few people carrying the coffin behind were Mr. Xiao’s son and grandson. Jian Fang secretly complained in his heart that he had been stationed in Zhongping County and naturally knew the Xiao family, the largest family in Zhongping County.

"General Jian, do you hear that you want to give up Longyou County?" Mrs. Xiao's voice was low and hoarse.

Jian Fang smiled bitterly, walked to Mrs. Xiao, bowed and saluted: "Old Madam, there are as many as 100,000 rebels, and his vanguard is only one day away from Longyou. I have only three thousand people here, how can I fight?"

Mrs. Xiao paused the crutch in her hand: "What did the governor Gao send you to Longyou? What did you want you to do?"

"Stay on Longyou and buy time for reinforcements to arrive in Zhongping County!" Jian Fang's voice was as low as a mosquito.

"It's great. I thought you forgot, General Jian, now you have more than 3,000 people. All of our Xiao clans are here, with a total of 1,021 people. Now you have four,000 people." Mrs. Xiao said.

"Madam, even so, we can't beat it!" Jian Fang said with a bitter face.

"Eat the king's fortune and loyalty to the king, Jian Fang. If Long You give up Long You, Zhongping will be extremely empty and naturally cannot resist Luo Yishui. Once Zhongping loses, the rebels will go straight to Yuejing. At that time, you will be the sinner of Da Yue." The old lady stared at him harshly and said, "At that time, don't say that you can't survive, even your family will not want to live. Let me tell you the truth. When I left Zhongping County City, the governor Gao had already imprisoned all your family. If you dare to step away from Long You, they will be killed immediately!"

"Old lady!" Jian Fang's face suddenly changed color.

"Do you still want to leave now?" Mrs. Xiao said gloomyly.

"Me, where else can I go!" Jian Fang said with a sad face.

"It's great. If we keep Longyou, you will be the hero of Dayue and will be prosperous and prosperous for the rest of your life. If we die here all of us, but we will buy time for the arrival of the Hu Ben Army, you will be the hero of Dayue. Although you can't enjoy it, your family and children will enjoy your remaining wealth and food and clothing for the rest of your life. No matter how you calculate it, you will make a profit." The old lady took a step forward and reached out to grab Jian Fang's hand, "Let's go and accompany me to the city wall to have a look."

Although Mrs. Xiao looked at the trembling look, as soon as she grabbed Jian Fang, Jian Fang felt that there was an iron hoop on her wrist. However, through her wide sleeves, it looked like he was holding Mrs. Xiao.

The two of them slowly moved forward, and thousands of Xiao clan members in mourning clothes came in line, each carrying a large package on their backs. After walking in, they threw the package under the city wall. With a cup of tea, thousands of packages were already piled up like a mountain.

A man in his early fifties walked to the pile of packages and slashed open one of the bags with a casual knife. The things inside suddenly rolled out, and several more pokers were connected, and several more pokers were cut open. Without exception, they were covered with silver.

"Brothers, all the property of the Xiao clan is here, so they are piled up here. Those who can still survive after winning this battle will be taken as much as you can." The man shouted loudly.

The city suddenly caused a sensation. They were all ordinary soldiers, and their annual military pay was only more than ten taels of silver. Although the food and clothing were all provided by the state, the more than ten taels of silver were really too little over the year. And I don’t know how much of these piles of silver that were as rich as mountains, and they didn’t have this idea in their minds at all.

As long as you can survive, you will become rich. Everyone has this idea in their minds. In this life, even if they live, how much money can they earn, who says they will die? We are guarding the city, not fighting against the enemy, and the most elite Tiger Army in the court is on their way here. Perhaps in three or five days, they can earn money that they can never earn in their lifetime.

Everyone's breathing became heavier.

The man raised the big knife in his hand and shouted loudly: "Brothers, will you fight?"

After a brief silence, a man suddenly raised his arms and shouted: "Fight."

"Fight, fight, fight!" A roar like thunder sounded throughout Longyou City.

Jian Fang, who had already walked up to the city wall, listened to the roar of the soldiers in the city, looked back at the piles of white silver that were as thick as a mountain. He knew that things were irreversible, and at this time he was really no longer crying.

When things have reached this point, what else can he do? He can only hope to win this battle and go back alive. I hope that as Mrs. Xiao said, he can stand up to the arrival of reinforcements, and that he will be considered to have fulfilled his merits.

I let out a long breath, just let it go, a man dies and a bird is facing the sky, and I will never die for thousands of years.

There was a bang behind him, and the coffin fell heavily behind them. Old Mrs. Xiao said lightly: "I am not ready to go back alive, so just die here. None of us in the Xiao clan is ready to go back alive."

"Madam is righteous, Jian Fang is convinced. I am willing to follow his wife and fight to the death with the rebels!" Jian Fang said loudly.

"Very good, very good." Mrs. Xiao nodded.

The man who had encouraged the morale of the soldiers came up and said to Mrs. Xiao: "Madam, now we have sealed all the city gates, and no one can escape from the city."

"General Jian, his name is Shiyun. He used to be a general under Zhenggang. Later, after withdrawing from the army for some special reasons, he has been living in our Xiao family."

Jian Fang was surprised. He knew about time, but wasn’t this person dead? Why did he still appear in front of him alive?

Mrs. Xiao ignored Jian Fang's surprise, "General Jian, can you hand over your command to Shi Guang?"

"Since the general is here, the last general will naturally be willing to attach himself to the wing tail." Jian Fang nodded repeatedly. In front of this person, he had no confidence at all.

"Okay, thank you General Jian. Please immediately demolish all the houses in the city at the fastest speed. Stones, wood, and anything that can be used to defend the city will be arranged in different categories. Apart from the city wall, I don't want anything else in the city." Time said.

"clear."

"General Jian, the first wave of the rebels' attack must be the most fierce. Our Xiao clan will take the first battle. Your troops are ready to support at any time. If you resist the first battle, the battle will be easy." Time supports the city wall and looks at the open land ahead: "The defense facilities in Longyou County are still very complete. Luo Yishui has been smooth sailing along the way and has almost never encountered decent resistance. I concluded that he was afraid that he had not even prepared many equipment for siege. He probably thought that wherever his army went, the imperial army would definitely flee, right?"

Jian Fang said hey, Shi Guang said it was right. If it weren't for them, he would have escaped. (To be continued.)
