Chapter 650: Elder sister is like mother 10

Just when all the soldiers were preoccupied, there were suddenly some sparks in the dark night ahead.

"Governor, look quickly."

The young general Ban Hongyi exclaimed, and the sound of surprise shocked the generals who were slightly panicked due to overwork, and couldn't help but tremble and squinted their eyes.

I saw that the gleaming fire quickly expanded from the size of a pea at the beginning, spread to the surrounding area, and swelled to the size of a child's hand.

Looking at the flames soaring into the sky from a distance, the soldiers and leaders on the city wall couldn't help but grin, feeling the heat for the southern barbarian soldiers over there.

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. All the generals just stayed in the meeting hall until dawn, waiting for that capable person who didn't know when he would appear.

"Report, general, the enemy is attacking..."

Governor Chang Heng suddenly stood up and said anxiously: "This is impossible. Wasn't there an attack over there last night? How come you still have the energy to attack?"

Although he was confused and shocked in his heart, his steps were very urgent. He waved to his subordinates and hurried out of the meaning pavilion.

Outside the city wall, there was thick dust billowing on the official road to Changheng City from where the Nanman Army was stationed. Birds and beasts were flying all over the mountains and forests, as if the Nanman army was attacking.

Governor Chang Heng hurriedly put aside his doubts and began to arrange his troops to prepare for the next defense of the city.

Just when the archers were ready and waiting for the enemy's vanguard to enter the shooting range so that they could be pierced by thousands of arrows, the galloping vanguard suddenly stopped, and the billowing dust was no longer what it was before.

Spread forward quickly.

After a few breaths, the dust became quiet, and the people in the city were finally able to see the true words in the dust circle.

"hiss!"

Everyone on the city wall took a breath, straightened their eyes, and stopped thinking. They stared at the army of good horses in front of them, unable to make any reaction.

Just because this scene is so amazing.

I saw nearly 10,000 fine horses on the empty dirt road in front of the city wall. They all had heavy sacks on their backs. It was very shocking to see them from a distance.

"Quick, send someone down to check." Governor Chang Heng slapped the deputy general beside him on the back and shouted.

After that, he slapped him again before he left, "No, no, no, you go there in person, you go ask that person, ask him if it is, is it..."

"General, I understand, I will go now."

Before Governor Chang Heng could finish what he said, Ban Hongyi, who was also extremely excited, ran out at an alarming speed.

After seeing that there were dedicated personnel to take care of the arrangements for the horses and forage, Jian Yi went up to the city wall under the leadership of Ban Hongyi, and successfully met with the generals of Chang Heng's garrison.

"The grassroots Miao Ying has met the governor and the generals."

With ten thousand good horses and one hundred stones of grain as investment certificates, coupled with a smart mind, careful planning, and extraordinary skills without any defeat, Jian Yian was quickly appreciated by the governor and the generals, and he got his wish.

Got the army.

The army has always been about strength and force. After Jian Jian and the soldiers with strong military skills were challenged many times, Jian Jian gained corresponding prestige in the army.

Moreover, the feat of a simple man on horseback carrying ten thousand good horses and carrying hundreds of stones of grain into the city is still vivid in my mind. This not only saved the soldiers from going hungry, but also alleviated the food shortage problem of the people in the city. Therefore,

He also gained considerable fame and prestige among the people.

It's not that there aren't people in Junzhong City who are jealous, jealous, or hate and fear Jian Jian, and want to do evil to Jian Jian, but no matter whether it's light or dark, Jian Jian is not afraid of them at all. Anyone who dares to come forward will have their claws chopped off by Jian Jian.

The remaining ones who didn't have the guts to stand up, Jian Jianli didn't even bother to deal with them, and just kept busy with their own business.

After Jian Yi joined, Chang Heng City defended the city, and even took the initiative to attack after seeking the approval of the old emperor. The Southern Barbarians were defeated and retreated. Not only did they recapture Pingyang City, they also forced the Southern Barbarians to retreat ten miles to seek peace.

At this point, the original plot was supposed to last for more than a year. The Southern Barbarians attacked the four cities of Pingyang, Changheng, Ningyu, and Chengyin. The old emperor calmly deposed the second prince, the fourth prince's two parties, suppressed the prince and the fifth prince's party, and mobilized the whole country.

Power, life is over seventy years old

Dingguo Gong, who was still strong and strong, fought several battles with the Nanman army. Finally, after recapturing the three cities and facing a shortage of food and grass, Daliang paid a compensation of ten thousand taels of gold, food and grass, and countless precious things to the Nanman army and signed a truce.

The agreement ends.

Now, just over two months before joining the army, the lost Pingyang City has been recaptured, and the Nanman have been driven out ten miles away from Pingyang Pass. Envoys have also been sent to negotiate peace. Soon they will return to the DPRK, waiting to take over the old army.

The emperor's reward was given.

"squeak"

The gate of Lingyang City was suddenly opened from the inside out, and the refugees outside heard the sound and hurriedly came forward.

Two government officials held the paste in their hands, and the notice paper went out of the city gate under the guard of a group of guards. They walked to the notice office outside the city and posted the notice paper in their hands.

"My lord, my lord, what is written on this?"

"Sir, when can we enter the city?"

"Sir, can you give me more porridge today? Xiaomin's two children are almost dying..."

"..."

The refugees were extremely excited when they saw that the official officials had finally arrived, and they hurriedly shouted out what was on their minds.

The two government officials were obviously used to this scene, and ignored the noise behind them. They waited until the notices in their hands were pasted before turning around and reading out the contents of the notices with the refugees.

"Good news came from Chang Heng. Chang Heng City was defended and Pingyang City was recaptured. Now the Southern Barbarian Army has surrendered. When the army returns to the court in the near future, envoys will come to Beijing to negotiate peace, so the folks can all go back to their hometowns.

.”

After the words fell, the refugees were quiet for a moment and then burst into an uproar. Some were sad and happy, some were sad and angry, some were regretful, all showing the various aspects of life.

"Woooooooo..."

Miao Jiangang and Miao Jiancheng stood in the center of the tribe. Listening to the words of the yamen servant, the tribesmen were chattering incessantly. They regretted and complained about why Mrs. Miao didn't wait for two days. As long as it takes two more days, it would be fine. As long as there are two more days, the war will begin.

It stops and they can go home.

Yes, Mrs. Miao passed away two days ago.

Two days ago in the morning, Miao Jiancheng was so hungry that he couldn't bear it. After drinking the porridge in his bowl, he still felt unbearably hungry. He asked Miao Jiangang, his elder brother, to leave half of the porridge for him. Miao Jiangang refused, and Miao Jiancheng refused.

Unable to do so, he planned to rob other children.

But everyone has been a refugee for so long, and all the money and food they brought from home as a refugee have been basically spent. Without money and food, they can only rely on the government's porridge twice a day, and the tender leaves of wild vegetables and leaves on the roadside to satisfy their hunger.

Already?

Therefore, not only Miao Jiancheng was hungry, but the other children were not in any good shape either. The porridge in the bowl was basically protected by liver meat. If anyone dared to snatch it, they would have to fight tooth and nail.

Therefore, when Miao Jiancheng rushed forward and tried to rob him, the little boy's brother reached out and beat Miao Jiancheng severely.

Mrs. Miao rushed over when she heard her eldest grandson's cry. When she saw the misery of her little grandson, she immediately protected herself. Without saying a word, she beat and scolded the two children.

Seeing his children being beaten, the father of the two brothers couldn't sit still. In addition, it was still a matter of fighting for food. The pressure caused by long-term hunger and poverty made the father of the two children no longer remember that they all have the same roots.

The tribesmen of the same clan grabbed Old Mrs. Miao and beat her. As they continued to fight, the beast in their hearts was brought out, and Old Mrs. Miao was accidentally beaten to death.
