Li Guorui and Sun Sanjie were a little disappointed, and the joy they had when they heard that there were reinforcements had now faded.
The reinforcements standing in front of him were indeed well-armoured, the horses were fat, and they were also equipped with two horses, which was extremely luxurious.
However, there were not many horses, and there were only thirty or forty people at a glance, and the soldiers under the armor were old and young, and thin, and there were women This is a reinforcement, this should not be a team of random people on the road, if it weren't for this fat horse and fine armor, it would be almost the same to say that they were fleeing people.
They didn't steal the horse and the armor Recently, the troops were withdrawn from Hebei West Road, and it is inevitable that the army will not be strictly managed, and it is possible that the armory has been robbed.
"Who are you?"
Li Guorui frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Reinforcements, of course."
Zhao Hanqing said, stretching out his hand and pointing to the city gate in front of him, "Hurry up and open the city gate and let the refugees in." ” Who are you, you Li Guorui and Sun Sanjie looked strange.
A little girl "Tell your principals to come out and speak."
Li Guorui said impatiently.
The queue is separated, and people arrive first before they can make a sound.
"Master Li, we are indeed here for reinforcements."
The female voice is soft.
Li Guorui and Sun Sanjie saw the people coming.
Another little girl This one is not as good as the previous one, at least the previous one also wore armor, although it was nondescript but it was also pretended.
At this time, the woman who came over, wearing a cotton robe wrapped in a red cloak, with light makeup on her face, looked like a young lady was traveling.
"Let your master speak."
Sun Sanjie said a little angrily, what are you doing, when is it?
"I am."
Miss Jun said.
What is it Li Guorui and Sun Sanjie were stunned.
"I'm the one in charge of the Qingshan Army."
Miss Jun said, "We are here for reinforcements to help you defend the city, please open the city gate and let the refugees in." ” Why "With the seal of the Duke of Chengguo."
Miss Jun said, reaching out and handing over an envelope.
Cheng Guogong Li Guorui and Sun Sanjie were stunned, and subconsciously reached out to take it and opened it, and sure enough, there was a big seal of Chengguo Gong.
"Really," Li Guorui asked in a low voice.
Sun Sanjie is a civil official who is very good at distinguishing notes and seals, not to mention that the geographical location on his side often deals with Cheng Guogong, and he can distinguish the true from the false at a glance.
"It's true."
He said with a complicated expression.
Li Guorui's expression was suddenly excited.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Guogong was worried about them and sent reinforcements, uh, although this reinforcement is a bit small and doesn't look like an army, but it is understandable, after all, Cheng Guogong, who is now on the border against fifty or sixty thousand gold troops, is very difficult.
At such a difficult time, he also divided his troops to them, and sure enough, Chengguo Gong never abandoned anyone.
The trust and obedience to Cheng Guogong is already a habit in their bones, and neither of them said anything more at the moment.
"The last general obeys the order."
They said in unison.
Although Changfeng is only a county seat, due to its important geographical location and the place where soldiers fight, the city is built exceptionally strong, so the first choice of refugees from all over the world is to flock here.
At this time, standing on the city wall, you can see the people outside the city gate, although they are turned away, many people are reluctant to leave.
At some point, many shacks were erected in the wilderness outside the city, and it became a settlement.
But there is nothing to be thankful about in this gathering place, the weather is cold, the hunger and cold are pressing, the weak are getting weaker and weaker, and the suffering makes humanity fade away, and the animal nature is flourishing.
With a scream, a black stone-like steamed bun held by a girl was snatched away, and at the same time the person was picked up by a man with a thin face and a fierce character.
"Spare your life."
An old woman pounced on the man's leg and hugged him.
"I haven't paid back the steamed buns I owed last time, and you want to repay the debt."
The man shouted fiercely, "If you don't return the steamed buns, you will take someone to pay them back." ” With that, he kicked the old woman away.
Three other men gathered around and looked at the girl who was struggling and crying with a greedy look.

"Although I have lost some weight, I am so tender."
One grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
The meaning of these words made the old woman even more desperate, and she pounced again.
"Take me, take me, let my granddaughter go."
She cried.
The men kicked her away again.
"Who wants you old thing?"
They scolded.
Looking at this scene, some of the people around were angry and some were numb, and they didn't stand up to stop it, this kind of thing has seen a lot, and they can't control it, whether they can live or not is not certain, how can they care about others.
Several men laughed and shook the girl in their arms.
"You can play with it before you cook it."
He said.
The old woman couldn't get up after being kicked, and she burst into tears as she watched the screaming and screaming girl.
How did this day come to be?
"Oh my God, do you have eyes?"
cried out, reaching out to the sky.
Before the words fell, he heard a pop, and the man who grabbed the girl fell straight to the ground, and the girl in his hand also fell.
The man knelt on the ground, like a broken bamboo, and finally lay on the ground and did not move.
Around his neck, a feathered arrow trembled.
There was a burst of crying, followed by screams.
"Who" The rest of the stunned men looked back at them in a hurry, but they saw a group of officers and soldiers coming not far away, with a big red flag flying behind them, and among them was a thin soldier with a face covering his face who couldn't see the men and women for a while, aiming his bow and crossbow at them.
Soldiers Before a few men were about to shout loudly, buzzing twice, bows and arrows had already flown over, and three arrows pierced the three men through their throats. coughed a few times, and didn't even have time to die of a scream.
There was silence in the wilderness, except for the granddaughter who the old woman was holding was still crying.
"The Gates Are Opened" Suddenly, one of the refugees shouted.
Only then did the people see that the gates of the city, which had been closed for half a month, were opened.
Suddenly the whole wild boiled, and everyone got up and rushed towards the city gate.
There was a loud bang, and the group of officers and soldiers standing not far away lined up, their bows, arrows and spears aimed at the refugees.
The agitated refugees stopped, their expressions frightened.
Is this going to slaughter them?
"Refugees are allowed to enter the city, but rioters are not allowed to enter the city."
A man from the group shouted, "No one who robs, rapes, or steals is allowed to enter the city." ” what There was a commotion in the wild.
"The old and the weak, women and children go first."
The man continued, "Anyone who has trouble with the people, everyone can point it out. ” There is such a rule.
Many people in the wilderness changed their faces, but their expressions were still skeptical.
Slowly, old and weak women and children stepped forward, and walked towards the city gate under the gaze of those officers and soldiers, and sure enough, there was no obstruction.
"After entering the city, go to the City God Temple, where there is a porridge factory."
The man said again.
There was even a soup kitchen Suddenly more people poured in the wilderness, and this time young men crowded over and ran to the front.
But the next moment an arrow was shot at his feet.
The young man was so frightened that he immediately stood still.
"The old and the weak, women and children go first."
The man said coldly.
Looking at this row of officers and soldiers with bows and crossbows, the young man did not dare to step forward again.
As the refugees entered the city quietly and orderly, a scream rang out from the crowd and a woman rushed forward and grabbed a thin man.
"He killed my daughter, he killed my daughter."

The woman shouted.
The man hurriedly threw his arm and his eyes flashed.
"I didn't, you're talking nonsense."
He shouted too.
Zhao Hanqing's bow and crossbow were aimed at him.
"Are there any witnesses?"
she asked.
The crowd was quiet and silent, and suddenly someone stepped forward, it was a thin child.
"I, I saw it."
He stammered, gesturing at the man.
Soon, more people came forward.
"I see it."
"I testify."
"He did evil, and his daughter died."
Looking at this chaotic scene, the man could no longer hide his panic.
"She volunteered, she volunteered with me to eat."
He raised his hands and shouted, shaking off the woman and running towards the city gate.
After running for less than two steps, Zhao Hanqing's arrow had already penetrated the back of his heart, and the man fell to the ground and convulsed twice.
Looking at the dead man, the woman wept and knelt down and prostrated to the officer.
"Let's get into town."
Zhao Hanqing said, the bow and crossbow in his hand still held firmly at these refugees.
But at this moment, many people have no fear in their hearts, and they are extremely relieved to look at the bows and spears of the officers and soldiers.
The old woman hugged her granddaughter, burst into tears, and slowly kowtowed to the ground again.
"It's not that I don't report it, the time has not come."
She muttered, "God still has eyes, God still has eyes." ” She kowtowed one by one, and someone next to her helped her up.
"Auntie, let's come into the city."
They said, with the joy of the rest of their lives.
The old woman got up tremblingly and took her granddaughter by the hand.
"What kind of soldier is this, I want to remember the benefactor."
She muttered.
"That flag says yes."
An old man in a tattered robe heard this, squinted at the big banner behind the officer and soldier, and said, "Qingshan Army." ”:
