Chapter 128: Preparing for War
On the evening of the third day, Ning Rong had just had dinner, and Lu Xun hurried over, and as soon as he entered the door, he raised his hand and pulled Ning Rong out, and even the minimum etiquette was forgotten by him.
"What are you doing!" Ning Rong said with a frown as he walked.
"Huang ...... The Yellow Turban Thief has arrived! Lu Xun was a little flustered, and he couldn't do the demeanor of facing the eight-hundred-mile company camp in the future generations, talking and laughing and retreating from the enemy.
"Panic what! If it's coming, it's coming! Ning Rong was also very excited in his heart, but on the surface, he was unusually calm, so calm that he couldn't believe it, and because of this, he could reprimand Lu Xun, "Look at your panicked appearance, what kind of system you become, if you are seen by the soldiers defending the city, won't it hurt the morale of the army!" ”
Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, took a deep breath, calmed his mood, and said, "What the master taught is that it is the apprentice Meng Lang!" Please forgive the master! ”
"The Yellow Turban Thieves are attacking the city?" The corners of Ning Rong's mouth hooked, as if he smelled a smell of blood, this was the first time he faced a war, an engagement in the era of cold weapons, last time he was hiding in the big camp, he had never been on the front line, and he was a little nervous in his heart.
"That's not ......" Lu Xun bowed to Ning Rong, expressing his apologies for his recklessness.
"Listening to the scouts sent by General Cao Hong, the Yellow Turban Thieves are less than ten miles away from Gucheng, and there are many of them, but they can ...... They didn't seem to be in a hurry, and judging by the journey, it would take an hour to arrive. ”
"That's too slow!" Ning Rong lowered his brows and said.
"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" Lu Xun suddenly shouted.
Ning Rong nodded secretly, it is indeed strange, is it ...... Zhou Cang is waiting to meet with several other yellow turbans?
"Oh! That's right! Master, General Cao has another thing to tell you, there are many people from outside the East Gate, and they ask to take refuge in the city! ”
Lu Xun seemed to have just remembered, and hurriedly asked: "Now that I am under the city, I don't know what to do?" ”
"People?"
Ning Rong raised his eyebrows, and secretly exclaimed, it's broken!
How did I forget this, not all the people of Gucheng County live in the city, and many people live in the villages around Gucheng.
I'm afraid, they just got the news last night.
"Let's go! Go to the city! Ning Rong cursed with self-reproach, pulled Lu Xun with his backhand and ran out.
The appearance of the wind and fire, for example, Lu Xun was even more anxious.
Lu Xun was dumbfounded, master, this ...... Is this your calm?
What about calm?
What about talking and laughing and retiring from the enemy?
Thinking of Fang Cai's words still lingering in his ears, Lu Xun's mouth grinned, and he wanted to cry.
Mother, he lied to me......
It's a pity that as soon as his mouth opened, a northeast wind poured in, Lu Xun's face turned red, he closed his mouth with interest, and followed Ning Rong.
……
East Gate.
Cao Hong held a big knife, like a needle of the sea god, the tiger's back and the bear's waist was as stable as Mount Tai, his eyes flashed, and his face looked straight outside the city gate.
There was a group of people, gathered together in twos and threes, carrying baskets, carrying burdens, pushing carts, which were full of large bags and small bags, women holding young children in their arms, sons supporting the elderly, and half-grown children snuggling timidly beside their mothers, looking at the black-armored elite soldiers on the city tower with their fingers in their hands, very afraid.
There were more than 1,000 people, walking in a hurry, desperately longing for the city gate.
"Zilian, what's the situation?"
Ning Rong ran to the city panting, ignoring the salute of the people, leaned down and jumped down, looked at the miserable people, and hurriedly asked.
"These people said that they were the people of Gucheng, and they heard that the Yellow Turban Thieves were coming and asked to take refuge in the city!"
"What do you want to do?" Ning Rong asked straight to the point.
"......" Cao Hong didn't answer, but saw a person behind him, wearing yellow armor and a sword at his waist, and said directly: "Sir, if you let these more than 1,000 people enter the city, I am afraid that there will be spies of yellow turban thieves mixed with them." ”
Oh?
Ning Rong knew that Cao Hong was also concerned about this, but it was inconvenient for him to say that this person was ...... That's right! It is the head of the guard of the dynasty, Wang San.
Unexpectedly, the dynasty actually sent him to help defend the city, which was really generous...... Most of the defenders on this city wall know this Wang San.
"Can you be sure it's the people of Valley City?"
"Humble duties cannot be fully determined!" Wang San said truthfully.
Ning Rong nodded, looked around at the soldiers left and right, and saw the way they were pointing, obviously knowing the people in them, or rather, some people had some kind of relationship with them.
"It's strange that Ning didn't think about this matter and forgot about the people outside the city, but if you ignore these people, wouldn't it hurt them?" Ning Rong blamed himself.
Looking at everyone's gaze, Ning Rong cleared his throat and shouted, "Everyone, what is the purpose of my stay here?" Well? ”
"It's to protect Gu Cheng and protect the relatives behind you! Now, since these people outside are the people of Gucheng, we can't push them to a dead end, you think, if they are caught by the Yellow Turban thieves and used to attack the city, you ...... Can you do it? ”
Everyone is facing each other, there is their own uncle, there is their own sister who is married, this ...... How can this be killed?
"Someone! Let them into town! Lin Xianzun, please arrange a separate open space for them, set up some tents to shelter from the wind and rain, and then send people to maintain order, and tell them that those who are in the same boat with Gucheng will live; Troublemakers, die! ”
Ning Rong said as he turned to look at the worried Lin Xianzun, this is a good old man, seeing his embarrassed appearance, Ning Rong had to say in an accentuated tone: "Lord County Zun, in troubled times, you should use heavy codes!" Our enemies are outside, not inside, if there is chaos inside, Gucheng will really be finished! ”
Lin Xianzun's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Oh! Xia Guan understands! ”
"Zilian, the morale of the soldiers is not high?" Ning Rong was a little worried, hoping that these guys with frightened faces and shivering with weapons in their hands would really be able to guard Gu City?
Shaking his head, Ning Rong expressed doubt.
Cao Hong actually laughed! Laughed a lot!
"Hehe, Zhiyuan is too demanding, the Yellow Turban thieves are huge, and the Yellow Turban wrestlers are even more fearless of death, and they should be timid! There are a lot of 5,000 people, but if you look at the weapons in their hands and the armor on their bodies, you can know what kind of army this is! ”
Oh, yes! The rabble!
Ning Rong secretly threw a look at Cao Hong, and Cao Hong nodded understandingly.
Cao Hong looked back left and right, the big knife slammed, clicked, and his tongue burst like thunder, "Where are the soldiers!" ”
"In!" Cao Jun shouted.
Cao Hong stood on top of the city gate, looked at the soldiers who were lowered to the left and right, and roared angrily: "...... Look here! ”
The soldiers on the left and right were inexplicable, and then they realized that Cao Hong was referring to Gucheng, and they were a little puzzled, and they didn't know what Cao Hong meant.
