Chapter 59: The People Wear Armor, and the Scholar Holds the Spear


Zhai Wentong looked at the boundless crowd of people kneeling in front of the state capital, and listened to Wang Fang's painful look at the crowd and helpless words, Zhai Wentong suddenly felt in his heart that this group of people would be really too cruel to get them on the battlefield.They are all ordinary people, although they are young and middle-aged, but they are just ordinary people, they don't know how to fight in battle, they don't know military strategy, and if they are sent to the battlefield, they can only be ruthlessly slaughtered by the Monnan people.But they did not hesitate, did not hesitate, did not have any hesitation, Zhai Wentong, who had just stood at the head of the city for fear that the Mengnan army would attack the city again, also heard this group of people shouting, "I am willing to sprinkle blood for the court, I am willing to dedicate myself to Qingzhou, I am willing to carry a butcher's knife for Shuoji!"

”He heard it and was moved, a good military man, the tears in his eyes seemed to be endless, and they were dripping loudly.Many of the courtiers also heard it, shed tears, and shouted!

He really didn't expect that the people liked the Li Dynasty so much, no, they liked Shuoji, they liked their group of officials, because they liked it, so they did not hesitate in times of crisis.Zhai Wentong also knelt on the ground, "Bang bang bang!"

”It's just three heads, Zou Derun wanted to get up to help, but he didn't think that Wang Fang and Cui Congwen would not be the assassin, and the four state Sima and all the other Qingzhou officials also knelt on the ground with tears in their eyes, and said to the people, "Bang bang!"

”Three heads!

These three heads are because of guilt, yes, guilt.Because it is a shame for them, as officials, to make the people go to the trouble to defend against foreign enemies!

The saddest thing is still Zhou Sima and Zhai Wentong, because they are military generals!

The duty of the military general is to command the soldiers and horses, and block the vicious enemy for the dawn people behind him, but at this moment, the literati who are powerless, and the people who do not know how to fight in battle, want to go to the battlefield, even if there may not be much danger, because in his plan, the people just wave their flags and shout for them at the head of the city, so that the Monnan people can see it.But it still made them feel guilty.Seeing the officials in tears, Zou Derun laughed and said, "Adults, don't cry, don't cry.As a member of the Li Dynasty, we should be like this at the time of national crisis, the people of our Li Dynasty are united and united to the outside world, even if the whole world wants to beat my Li Dynasty, then there is no fear!

Because we believe that our dynasty is invincible.We are all members of the big family of the Rite Dynasty, many people say that when the son is faint today, in fact, it is not, the old man also knows that the treasury of the Rite Dynasty is in short supply now, and the four regions are constantly in the wolf's smoke, but His Majesty has been lightly endowed, so that the people are healthy, so that the people will not go hungry.We have not paid for this money, it must have been taken from the royal treasury by His Majesty.And you, the capital Zhang Xuyi encourages farming, encourages the people to produce, and promulgates decrees that benefit the country and the people, and is a good capital for the people and the country.I don't know the history of thorns in other places, but it should also be the same as Wang Thorn History, happy with the people, happy with the people, happy with the people, we don't actually have much intersection, but I have seen you many times, every time I can see you and the old farmer in plain clothes laughing and talking, asking the old farmer what difficulties and so on, every time I see this scene, I can't help but praise you are really a good official.Don't drive the adults and the state Sima adults, and all the adults are the same, you are all good officials, rare good officials.There is a son of heaven who seeks for the common people, there is a capital for the people, and there are magistrates who share happiness with the people, it is not surprising that we are like this, the people are actually very simple, you are good to us, and we will treat them with reason.This kind of courtesy is worth it for me to dedicate everything, even if I am not afraid of life and death!

”"Give everything, even if you die, don't be afraid, give everything, even if you die!

Give everything, even if you die!

”Such words, after Zou Derun finished speaking, resounded all over Shuoji City, and those who were too far away also heard it, and ran in the direction of the state capital yamen, and did not forget to shout a sentence "Dedicate everything, even if you die, you are not afraid!"

”Wang Fang didn't speak, Cui Congwen didn't speak, Zhai Wentong didn't speak, and Zhou Sima and other officials didn't speak!

Because Zou Derun has said everything, what he said is the voice of the people, and it is also their voice!

Thirty-two states have been inherited for thousands of years, from Qin to Chu, from Chu to Zhao, and from Zhao to Tang, from Tang to today's Li Dynasty, which generation of people, with the country, full of 200,000 people, go to death without frowning, and say that they dedicate everything to the Li Dynasty, and they are not afraid of death!

Except for the Rite Dynasty, there is none!

Rite Chaoer!

……………… Zhai Wentong was dressed in military armor, holding a horse lance, and stood majestically at the gate of Shuoji City on a tall horse!

The boundless black pressure behind him, although it is a little scattered, and there is no formation to speak of, but it is still reassuring!

Originally, I didn't plan to let the people wear military armor, but almost all the people of this Shuoji City have gone to the state capital, and they all said that they don't want to sit and wait for death, and they will die a heroic death!

So Wang Fang ordered someone to open the supply warehouse of the imperial court to assist Qimen Pass, and moved all the military armor inside, and no one had a set, so that the people could change it.The people were also not polite, and lined up in a long line to receive armor and ordnance.None of them said a word in the process.After getting the armor and armament, after putting it on, I felt very difficult, because these things were very heavy, especially the scholars, the armor and spears seemed to be about to crush them, but they didn't scream, they desperately held things and worked hard to carry the spears!

Among them are Wang Ji, the eldest son of Wang Fang, and two other sons, the two sons of Cui Congwen, Cui Ye and Cui Ming, the eldest son of Zhai Wentong, and the children of Sima and other officials.Originally, Wang Fang, Cui Congwen and Zhai Wentong meant to let the people go to the city, as long as the Mengnan Army saw the people with outstanding military armor, but this group of people seemed to have gone crazy and wanted to go out of the city for everything!

They said that Zhai Shaoyin wanted to go out of the city to fight the enemy, and they also had to follow, and they couldn't let Zhai Shaoyin go out of the city with the only remaining 8,000 soldiers in Shuoji, that would be too risky.Because that is the last hope of Shuoji City, if the enemy does not agree to fight the generals, they will attack it in groups, and the people will not operate those defense equipment, there is no way to rescue.It's better to go out directly, if the enemy turns his face, our 200,000 enemies will also be killed for a while, let the sergeants and Zhai Shaoyin come back first, then there will be hope in Shuoji City, and they can wait for the reinforcements from the imperial court!

No matter how Wang Fang and the others persuade them, it is useless, they just want to get out of the city!

In the end, Zhai Wentong agreed with the people's idea, because he thought that the Mengnan people were the most trustworthy, and if they agreed to fight the generals, then they would definitely fight the generals, and the Mengnan people were proud, and they were extremely confident in terms of force, and they would definitely answer the fighting generals.Wang Fang didn't know if what Zhai Wentong said was true or comforting himself, and he didn't have anything to do, because the people had already decided to do so, and they couldn't stop it, so they could only believe Zhai Wentong's words.But what they never expected still appeared, that is, they asked the 8,000 soldiers to guard the city pass and not leave the city at the head of the city, how could Wang Fang and the others agree?

Zhai Wentong didn't agree either, but the reason they said was impossible to refuse!

That is, because the 8,000 soldiers know the way of the battle formation and know how to use the weapons to defend the city, if the Mengnan people turn their faces, they can cover Zhai Wentong and their retreat!

This is reasonable and well-founded, which makes Wang Fang and the others dumbfounded, they didn't expect this group of people to think so thoughtfully.In fact, the Mengnan people turned their faces, Zhai Wentong and Wang Fang and others have thought about it, and they have also considered what they said, but they will still die a lot of people, which they don't want to see.Their final conclusion was that if the Mengnan people turned their faces together, then Zhai Wentong led 8,000 soldiers to desperately resist the Mengnan army and cover the people to withdraw to the city!

But I never thought about it, the people also thought of this, and they didn't let the 8,000 soldiers go out of the city, which really gave the officials a headache, and in addition to the headache, it also made the officials secretly sigh that it was really difficult for the people to take this time.The common people are very unreasonable, Zhai Wentong thought this way before, they couldn't refute what they decided, and if they didn't agree, they would make trouble, they just wanted you to go according to their arrangement, otherwise it wouldn't work!
