Chapter 363 364 Preparation

  Xiaoyu looked at Li Yu, who was tired and wrinkled, and said to Yangyang distressedly: "Young master, you and brother Qijin go to play with Xiaobai Dahua, let the madam have something to eat and wash."

  Yangyang looked at Li Yu and nodded, "Mother, you have a good meal and I went to play with brother Qijin."

   "Go! My dear." Li Yu touched the head of his bag, put him down, and watched the two run to the back garden hand in hand.

"Ma'am, Gu Yu and Xinghua went to the house over there to help pick up the corn. Jixiang came back and drank the porridge and fell asleep. Granny Liu cooked lean meat porridge for you. get some sleep."

   "Okay," Li Yu glanced at Xiaoyu's belly, "Is the child good? Are you tired?"

   "Not tired." Xiaoyu smiled and shook her head. Madam Liu happily brought the porridge and side dishes and arranged them, "Madam, you are hungry! Drink some porridge, and I will pour you bath water."

   "Okay." Li Yu drank the porridge, washed briefly, went back to the room and lay on the bed with a familiar smell from the tip of his nose, relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.

  Shen Hui led the people to retreat to a mountain ridge below, and he could still see the blazing fire. This time the mountain fire burned for several days before being extinguished by a rain and snow.

  Ruyi came out of the Four Seas Bank and went to Xicheng to find Zhou Jia. Mr. Qian told him that Zhou Jia had been invited back to the yamen by Mr. Wu.

As soon as Zhou Jia returned to the yamen, Wu Tingxian greeted him in a panic, "Sir, it's not good, General Ouyang sent an urgent report, the strength of the Qi army suddenly doubled in the early morning, and Linshan City was captured by the Qi army. The county magistrate of Linshan County is dying, and Yunzhou House is preparing for the battle immediately. Let us start recruiting civilians to carry the rolling wood and stones to the top of the city, as well as the doctors of various pharmacies. Do you think the wildfires in those few days are sinking? The general released it? I think those people from Qi saw that Luoji Mountain couldn't get through, and if the sneak attack failed, they transferred their troops to Linshan to attack with full force." Wu Ting first sighed, "Oh! Aggressive!"

After hearing this, Zhou Jia remembered that Li Yu, Jixiang, and Mr. hadn't returned to the city. She was worried and said in a deep voice, "Even if we are worried, it's no use. The method, you should first start the recruitment of civilians and doctors, and every household should have one person from the age of sixteen and under the age of fifty."

"It's your lord." Wu Ting glanced at Zhou Jia after responding, and suddenly found that he had suddenly lost a lot of weight these days, and looked at Zhou Jia with some worry, "Sir, have you encountered any difficulties? I only found out about you today. I lost a lot of weight!"

   Zhou Jia bowed his hands at Wu Tingxian, "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine, but I have a bad appetite. Tell General Ouyang that we will fully cooperate with him."

"Yes, my lord." Wu Ting retreated first, and Ruyi hurriedly rushed to Zhou Jia's signing room from the outside. Seeing that the door was open, Zhou Jia was rubbing his temples and burying his head in the office, and shouted excitedly, "Master, Madam. He Jixiang is back, but the old man still hasn't come back."

Zhou Jia held the pen and looked at Ruyi for a few breaths before he came back to his senses. Holding the pen, he ran to the back office. Ruyi watched Zhou Jia run away like a gust of wind, smiled and closed the door, muttering to himself. "The madam is back, and the master is alive."

   Zhou Jia ran to the yard, Gu Yu sat at the door of the main room and said to him with a smile: "Master, you are back! Madam has already fallen asleep when she returns."

Zhou Jia nodded, gently pushed open the door and walked into the room, sat on the edge of the bed and stared at his sleeping wife, leaned down and kissed her on the forehead, the big stone in his heart. He put it down at once, only to realize that he was still holding the pen tightly in his hand, shook his head and smiled, only then did he remember that he still had to check the situation of Wu Tingxian's recruitment of civilians and doctors, and looked back at Li reluctantly. With a glance, Yu gently closed the door and went out.

Chu Sihai received the letter brought back by Shen Shuo, and hurriedly took it and sent it to Ouyang who was guarding the garrison yamen. The two saw that Shen Shuo's letter stated that Yang Rui was a spy from Qi who had been beheaded by him. In the winter, the dry weather burned Qi soldiers to death in the jungle. After receiving the letter, Vice Admiral Ouyang took his place and ordered the three armies. He was told to defend Yunzhou and not let Qi people enter Yunzhou.

  Chu Sihai thought of the mountain fire that had not been extinguished in Luoji Mountain, so he respected Shen Shuo, looked at the letter on the table and said, "The Shen family is worthy of being His Majesty's uncle.

  General Ouyang was deeply saddened at the thought of three thousand soldiers perishing with the Qi soldiers on Luoji Mountain. He placed Shen Shuo's letter respectfully, and said to the letter, "General, take orders from your humble position, and you swear that the city is here."

   Chu Sihai looked at the tall and heroic General Ouyang with admiration, "General Ouyang, with loyal and brave soldiers like you and General Shen in Dayong, they will definitely drive the Qi people out of Dayong."

General Ouyang looked at Chu Sihai and said to him: "Treasurer Chu, I don't believe that all the soldiers have died in the fire, please send someone to see if there are any survivors on the mountain, and the madam is still waiting for the general. If you have any news, please ask the shopkeeper Chu to bring the letter of the general to the madam, and I will go up to the city to inspect."

   "Okay, the old man will send someone here." After Chu Sihai heard this, he clasped his fists and went out to the general's mansion on horseback.

General Ouyang came to the top of the city. At this time, the whole city was on alert. There were officers and soldiers at the top of the city. General Ouyang looked at the generals of the three armies standing at the top of the city and at the bottom of the city and shouted: "The soldiers of the three armies, Qi people are trying to cross Luoji Mountain in vain. A sneak attack on us, the mountain fire a few days ago was our general Shen taking the soldiers to risk, igniting the kerosene, burning the mountains and forests and killing the Qi soldiers together. Now the life and death of General Shen and the three thousand soldiers are unknown. Do you have any confidence? Defend Yunzhou City, protect your family and your country."

  The soldiers of the three armies shouted in unison: "Guard Yunzhou, protect the family and the country, protect the Yunzhou, and protect the family and the country." The cheering shouts of the soldiers penetrated the sky.

  Liu Yi and Mr. Qian went to various pharmacies and informed them that doctors would be recruited during the war. After listening to the pharmacy shopkeeper, he frowned and said, "There are doctors in the army! Why do you want us to help?"

Liu Yi was so angry that he slapped the knife on his cabinet, looked at him and asked, "Manager Luo, those soldiers are fighting in front to protect you. If you are injured, let you go to heal, but you can't do it. ?"

   The shopkeeper of the pharmacy was frightened, and hurriedly came out from behind the cabinet, smirking and bowing: "Liu Zhaotou, the little old man is just talking, you can rest assured that my doctor will definitely go."

Mr. Qian glanced at the smirking shopkeeper of the pharmacy, took out a paper note and registered it and asked him to press his handprint, looked at him and said with integrity: "Manager Luo, if everyone is like you, then this Yunzhou Can the city still be defended? If Yunzhou city cannot be defended, where will you flee to when the Qi people massacre the city?"

   Shopkeeper Luo kept handing over his hands, "Sir, the villain understands what he said." Mr. Qian and Liu Yi came out of the pharmacy and hurried to other clinics.

Chu Sihai sent a secret guard out of the city to Luoji Mountain to look for survivors. After hesitating for a while, he thought: I should wait for the secret guard to find someone to come back and tell Madam Mu. If General Shen escaped the fire by luck, wouldn’t I harm Madam Mu? White and sad.
