Gu Yishu looked at the thick account books and rows of numbers, which made him feel relaxed and happy.

How many winter clothes can be exchanged for so much food, how many weapons can it be exchanged for so much food? Ah Mei said that if you want to raise a cavalry, the cavalry must have a horse.

Buying a horse is not a small expense. When the beans are collected and then planting winter wheat, the granary will be thicker next year, and a cavalry can try to raise it.

I don’t know if my parents can come to Yuzhou smoothly next year. If they can come, the whole family will be reunited.

Just as he was thinking, the door was opened suddenly, Ju Yangqiu walked in and said with a bad look: "Young Master, Tuoba Xianbei attacked Bingzhou."

"What?" Gu Yishu was shocked and couldn't even care about the account book in his hand. "Where did you fight?"

Take out the map from the cabinet and spread it on the table. Gu Yishu's eyes fell at the junction of Tuoba Xianbei and Bingzhou, and finally his finger fell on Mayi.

Ju Yangqiu shook his head, but his expression was very serious. "I don't know where my subordinates have fought, but it is said that there are thousands of people. According to their previous fighting style, they swept the villages along the way, arrested people and served as strong men and served as military men, and became pawns. The team will definitely fight more and more."

Not only the Xianbei people, but other Hu people have never been shameless in war. They can get as much money as possible, and they also need money and food. For example, locusts pass through the border, and all the people captured by Jin must be used as infantrymen. These people are the pioneers of siege.

In fact, it's just a death sentence.

Shameless, but very tricky.

"If you go south from Mayi, you must be heading for Jinyang." Gu Yishu's fingers fell south on the map and landed on Jinyang. Jinyang was not very far from Yuzhou. If the enemy attacked Jinyang, Yuzhou would be very dangerous.

Even if Amei has improved the Qaozhou as quickly as possible, she is not afraid of the mountain bandits and bandits with her own strength, but if there are thousands of enemy soldiers, she may not be able to withstand it.

The defense of Yuzhou is still too weak, with few soldiers and few food, the walls of the surrounding fourteen counties have not been completely reinforced, and the soldiers and horses of the prefectures and counties have not been fully controlled...

Too bad.

"Go and call the county magistrate from Tunliu, Xiangyuan." Gu Yishu looked at Ju Yangqiu and ordered.

"Yes, I'll send someone to pass the message now." Ju Yangqiu turned around and went out to pass the message, and soon turned back, followed Feng Wenmao after him.

Gu Yishu glanced at the two of them and said, "You are here just in time. The military situation is urgent. Qinyuan County and Qin County do not have their own people yet. You two go to take charge and let Zhang Hu go to Wuxiang."

Ju Yangqiu and Feng Wenmao were stunned and then agreed, "Yes, we listen to the young master. But what if the county magistrate doesn't cooperate?"

Gu Yishu's eyes turned cold, "What do you think you should do?"

The two of them immediately knew what to do. The fourteen counties of Yuzhou are the fief of the Gu family. If the Gu family wants to regain power, the court cannot be too sarcastic and will definitely be dissatisfied. However, the little emperor was arguing with the emperor's uncle, so he could not care about this Yuzhou with high mountains and distant mountains.

Qin County and Wuxiang are the first line of defense in Guzhou. You must not make any mistakes. If you let others go to Gu Yishu, it must be the Gu family's army.

When Gu Qingyi received the news, her brother was convening a military meeting. She couldn't bother with her, but she didn't expect that such a thing would happen suddenly.

Tuoba Di and his friends took the caravan to Taiyuan County. Wouldn't they just bump into the head-on with the rioters of their tribe?

What kind of fate is this?

Gu Qingyi has a headache.

The He Lai family wanted Tuoba Di to return to the tribe last time, but Tuoba Di refused. This time, the Xianbei tribe went south and didn't know if the He Lai family would take the opportunity to cause trouble.

However, the most important thing at the moment is to strengthen the fortifications. Gu's mansion relies entirely on the fort in Guzhou, but it cannot shelter all the households in the fort.

Therefore, expanding and strengthening defense has become the most important thing at the moment.

Gu Qingyi hurriedly went out to find Dong Dacheng, and Zhan Xia and others followed immediately, and each of them looked very good.

It was about to fight, and they had not experienced such a thing, and they couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

The bell rings in the fort and hits three times in a row. The households inside and outside the fort stopped their work and looked in the direction of the fort.

Even the young master Xinling, who was obsessed with research, walked out of the door after hearing the bell, not knowing what had happened.

Dong Dacheng has been fighting with the emperor for many years. After hearing the girl's words, he looked as if he was ashen. He had no news yet, but he immediately said: "It is necessary to increase the fortress and expand it. It is necessary to draw the young and strong man to act immediately and fight from the north. No matter how fast it is, it will take more than a month. Moreover, there are many prefectures and counties blocking along the way, which is enough."

Gu Qingyi felt relieved when she heard the professional Dong Dacheng say this and said solemnly: "The general has experience in this matter, so he will entrust you to you. If you want something, I will definitely prepare it for you."

Dong Dacheng didn't dare to be lazy at this time. There was a mistake in Guzhou, so he didn't have to see his lord, so he just lifted the knife and broke himself.

Is Gu Qingyi afraid?

Afraid!

She is a little girl who grew up in peacetime and has never seen wars. She has only seen things like wars from party history, history, movies, TV, and books.

I thought I was also a knowledgeable person, but when the war was about to reach the doorstep, she still felt a little weak in the soles of her feet and sore in the calves.

This is not a game, you can start again if you fail.

This is a real war, and death means death.

She took a deep breath and couldn't panic. With her brother outside commanding and taking charge, his military talent would definitely kill him in seconds.

The most important thing I have now is to help my brother manage his internal affairs well. Yes, Shifang!

Reinforcement of the fort requires stone, wood, and normal material reserves for daily life, and now it is a life-saving straw.

She did not dislike the stone yard for canceling it because she had no money to make, but asked them to build houses for the households and store stones. Now is the time to use it!

Gu Qingyi immediately asked Zhan Xia to call Yu Bai from Shifang, as well as Lin Yuanqing from Mufang.

The two of them were standing in front and back. Gu Qingyi looked at them and asked directly: "We need to expand and reinforce the fortress. Are the stone reserves in the stone yard enough?"

Yu Bo was stunned for a moment, wondering why the girl suddenly wanted to do this, but he, a craftsman, did not question the girl. After thinking about it, he said, "It depends on how much the girl expands and how much she increases."

Gu Qingyi said: "The expansion is not about expanding the entire dock. Just circle the houses built by the households outside the dock, build a circle of thick walls and add a village gate. The walls of the dock must be increased by at least three feet. What do you think?"

Yu Bai was speechless. This was not a small project. He frowned and calculated, and said, "The stone reinforcement forts stored in Shifang are enough, but if the courtyard wall is expanded and the houses of the Yihu will be enclosed, it will only be more than half of them."

Gu Qingyi calculated the project date and said, "If you continue to store stones while strengthening the fort and building the courtyard wall, will you be able to make up for the gap?"

The Shifang only cares about quarrying and will not do anything else.

Yu Bo felt that time was a little tight, but it was not impossible to complete it, so he said, "I will definitely do my best."

"It's not about trying your best, it's necessary to do it." Gu Qingyi looked at Lin Yuanqing again after saying that, "The same is true for the wood, is it enough?"

Lin Yuanqing is a smart man. When the girl asked Yu Bai just now, he was already calculating the amount of wood.

Wood is much less than stone. Although the reserves are insufficient, logging is easier than quarrying. I said: "There is a batch of wood in the wood shop, which can be used even if it is almost done. However, the new wood will shrink after being exposed to the sun, so it is best to use it in the outermost part, so it is better to replace it if there is a problem."

"Then go and prepare." Gu Qingyi said, "The Hu people from the north rushed into Bingzhou. If the blocking is not effective, they will soon reach Yuzhou. Before the enemy arrives, we must be fully prepared."

Yu Bai and Lin Yuanqing both turned pale when they heard this. No wonder the girl was so anxious.

Since the girl came, the entire dock has changed a lot. They have regarded this place as their home. How can they retreat when they encounter enemies?

The two of them gritted their teeth and made a military order and immediately began to prepare.

Being forced to go to the battlefield and fighting against the enemy from the bottom of your heart is completely different.

Gu Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I have gathered many refugees before, but now I am a ready-made man. Especially the food in the Gu family is not bad, and in addition, Gu Qingyi, the Xia Suo, killed pigs and sheep for everyone, are all strong, so I naturally have a lot of strength when I sit down.

As the war is about to begin, Gu Qingyi is facing huge danger. What surprised Gu Qingyi is that the most excited and worried about is not the Gu family’s households, but the gathering of refugees.

They were once forced to leave their hometowns, endure hunger, and risked their lives to wander around. They finally settled in Yuzhou, had houses, fields, and hope for life, and now they are likely to be broken. This means that once Yuzhou is lost and captured, they will become refugees again, or even become pawns of the Hu people.

No one wants to experience such a day.

What's more, the young and strong people at home entered the army. They were desperately trying to defend Huzhou and protect their families. What can the elderly, weak, sick and disabled who cannot go to the battlefield do?

Of course, you can do whatever you can. Even the children of seven or eight years old at home take the initiative to help. If they can't do big work, they can also help with the small work in the corners.

What is the human heart?

Gu Qingyi once read the Three Kingdoms, and everyone said that Liu Bei was the country where he cried, but his ability to win people's hearts was not all because of crying. He had his own personal charm and his own means to keep people's hearts.

What does it feel like to be supported by the people?

The child who grew up under the Red Banner did not have the chance to experience it. She experienced more about the education of parents' mixed doubles love for the lower test scores. The street office's old man and aunt are particularly interested in mediating. They are class cadres and student union cadres in the school and are loved by students and teachers. That is not called support, but progressive students contribute to the school.

Until this moment, Gu Qingyi stood under the solid wall of the fortress, and the households who were strengthening the fortress made huge cheers, shouting in unison to defend their homes and defend the girl.

Even Gu Yishu was shocked and could not speak for a long time.

Gu Qingyi's heart was in awe of excitement. What is the will of the people?

She thought she understood a little.

She turned to meet her brother's excited and eager gaze and smiled softly, "Brother, look, this is the power of everyone's heart, we will win."

Gu Yishu has read many books and learned a lot of power and tricks. When a young man was passionate, he could pretend to be a playboy and be ridiculed and ignored him. He endured humiliation and was never afraid of hardship.

But today Amei taught him a new lesson, a side he had never touched before.

As a young man from a noble family, he was born to be a noble man who was highly praised.

How could he take the households in the country?

The lowly households who have no right and can only be slaves to nobles are as inconspicuous as ants in their eyes.

Never cared about it, never valued it, never took it seriously.

But now he thinks it is not, he used to think it was wrong.

He looked at A Mei and asked, "Qingqing, did you think of today when you came to Yuzhou to open wasteland to build houses and take refugees?"

Gu Qingyi was unable to answer her original thoughts in detail, so she thought for a while and said, "Brother, my most thought at that time was to collect more grain from multiple fields and not panic when fighting."

"Puff!" Zheng Huan, who had just arrived, couldn't help laughing when he heard this. He met the look of the Gu brothers and sisters looking at him, and quickly waved his hand, "Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I just came here and happened to hear it."
