I’m The King Chapter 51: :War

When Gao Yuan arrived at the county government office, Wu Kai, Lu Hong, Huo Zhu and other officials, large and small, had already gathered. Seeing Gao Yuan, Lu Hong sternly said, "Gao Bingcao, where is your army?"

"Don't worry, the county lieutenant, the first team will arrive soon, I have already sent someone to inform them." Gao Yuan said, "Lord county lieutenant, what happened?" Since Lu Hong called him Gao Bingcao, he made it clear It's a matter of business, so he no longer calls him Uncle, but the County Captain.

Lu Hong sighed, "The Donghu people's attack has begun."

Gao Yuan took two steps closer and said in a low voice: "Didn't you say that they would only rob outside Juli Pass two days ago? Why is there such a big battle?"

"They crossed the border. They not only robbed the villages outside the pass, but also bypassed Juliguan. Now they are only 20 miles away from Fufeng County. Zheng Xiaoyang sent someone back to report that several villages have been looted. "

"Why didn't Juliguan set off beacon smoke to call the police?" Gao Yuan asked.

"In such a heavy snowstorm, even if they set off smoke, the smoke column will be blown away by the wind before it rises." Lu Hong shook his head.

"Is it possible to attack Fufeng City?"

"I don't know, but you have to be vigilant! Just in case!" Lu Hong sighed, "The alarm bell is ringing, and all men over the age of 16 in the city must go to the city to prepare for war."

"How can those who have not received any training be able to fight? Isn't this letting them die?" Gao Yuan changed color.

Lu Hong took a look at Gao Yuan, "What's so strange about this? You have more than a hundred people under your command? If the Donghu people really attack the city, if the city is broken, they will all die. Not only will they die, but even their family members will die." Everyone has to die, and they have to go to the city. Even if they just throw a stone, they might kill a Donghu person. If a Donghu person dies, their combat effectiveness will be reduced by one point. It’s worth a life for a life. Besides, Donghu people are mainly cavalry, and they may not be able to attack the city. This is a loss-making business. Only when Donghu King gathers a large army will he attack the city wall. However, mobilizing a large army is not so easy. It does not take a month or two It is impossible to mobilize a large number of people. With this time, we already know the news. This time it is so sudden, it must be a single action of a certain tribe. There will not be too many people. Fufeng City should not have any problems. This is just in case. By the way, the news you said last time seems to be true, and we were careless."

"County Captain, what should we do outside the city?" Gao Yuan said in a low voice.

"The villages outside the city can only hope for their own blessings!" Wu Kai sighed, "This time the attack was so sudden, many villages did not get the news, and the wind and snow were so heavy that it was too late to retreat. , the loss will be heavy.”

Looking at Wu Kai's mournful concubine, Gao Yuan glanced at Lu Hong, who said in a low voice, "The largest farm in County Magistrate Wu is just outside the city, about ten miles away from Fufeng City, if Donghu people come , definitely not guaranteed, if this is the case, Mr. Wu will lose a lot of money this time, no wonder it will hurt."

Gao Yuan nodded, "I hope these Donghu people only rob things and don't kill people, otherwise, this time I'm afraid Fufeng will suffer. County captain, if I take people out of the city, maybe I can save some people."

"No way!" Lu Hong didn't even think about it, and flatly refused, "All the Donghu people came here were cavalry, and you have more than a hundred people going out, and it's not enough to give people teeth. Besides, there are only more than a hundred of you in the city. Serious soldiers, if the Donghu people really go crazy and want to attack the city, you still have to be the main force, Gao Yuan, can you do it?"

Gao Yuan took a deep breath, "County Captain, please don't worry."

Lu Hong glanced at Wu Kai and Huo Zhu, shook his head, "This time, I don't know how it will end, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain!"

An official of the county government came in and bowed to several people: "Master Wu, the qualified men in the city have been assembled, please go and give a lecture."

Wu Kai stood up and said to Lu Hong and Huo Zhu, "My lords, let's go together."

A group of people walked out of the county government office, and in front of the county government office, there were densely packed men, some with luxurious clothes who looked rich, some beggars with ragged clothes, some youthful young men, and some wrinkled old men, Everyone held different things in their hands, including kitchen knives, sickles, sticks, sheep forks, and some had nothing but a stone in their hands. Everyone stood there silently, looking at the officials on the steps.

Everyone looked very calm, as if they had experienced this kind of thing many times before. Seeing this scene, Gao Yuan was shocked.

"Folks, I don't want to say too much. Our Fufeng is going to be in great trouble this time. I don't know how the villages outside have been harmed by the Donghu people. The people in the village may not be there anymore. Then There may be your relatives inside. Everyone knows that I, Wu Kai, was born and bred in Fufeng, and there are my relatives outside. However, now is not the time to be sad, nor is it the time to be afraid, because fear is useless. Here we come, if we break Fufeng City, we will all die, our family members will die, and we will lose more relatives. We can only keep Fufeng and our relatives if we are united. Our homeland will never be poisoned by Donghu people." At the end, Wu Kai raised his arms and shouted.

The people's emotions were ignited by Wu Kai in an instant, and countless voices shouted. Gao Yuan looked at Wu Kai, and really couldn't see that this guy still had the talent to be a speaker. Regardless of whether his words were true or not, But in the end, it ignited the morale of the people.

There was the sound of orderly footsteps on the street, and everyone's eyes turned to the direction from which the footsteps came. , came running, the one at the front is Sun Xiao.

Gao Yuan let out a sigh of relief, yes, it took them less than half an hour to get here from the Nancheng barracks.

"Report to Gao Bingcao, all 50 members of the First Capital of the Fufeng County Brigade are here!" Sun Xiao took a step forward, clenched his fist with his left hand, hit his right chest, and said loudly to Gao Yuan. The soldiers were all dressed in neat military uniforms, and they were wearing the cowhide armor that Gao Yuan had just bought for them. They said it was armor, but they were actually two pieces of tanned cowhide with holes drilled one by one, and then tied with cloth straps. Tied together, they are worn on the body like a vest, which just protects the front chest and the back.

Gao Yuan nodded, "Join!"

Sun Xiao stepped back. Just as he stood still, Yan Haibo's two rows of infantry had also rushed to line up.

"Bing Gao, the first team and the second team of Fufeng County soldiers should have 50 people, but there are 47 people, the leader Cao Tiancheng and the other two soldiers have not returned yet after going out on business!" Yan Haibo said loudly. /

"Enroll!"

The arrival of this team brought the atmosphere to a climax in an instant. The entry of such a well-dressed, high-spirited and heroic army made Fufeng finally realize that we still have an army in Fufeng. Looking at them, the belief in victory immediately rose several steps.

County Magistrate Wu Kai, County Wei Luhong, Deputy Wei Zhang Han, and Governor Huo Zhu were all stunned. They knew what this army looked like before, and it was not much better than beggars. Kai didn't wait for this army to arrive before he began to give lectures, and he didn't regard this army as a life-saving medicine. In his opinion, maybe the ordinary people in these cities are more reliable. On the contrary, this army is full of bachelors who have nothing. It is very rare to want them to work hard. Although Gao Yuan has served as the soldier of this army, in Wu Kai's eyes, Gao Yuan's ability to do business is a must. As for leading troops, he really didn't think about it.

At this time, seeing this army with a completely new look, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, Wu Kai and others looked at Gao Yuan's eyes suddenly changed.
