Farmers have children to raise

Chapter 432 The smell of gunpowder smoke (2)
Xiaojiu poked his head out of the car window, "I can't take you there, go back quickly."

The big cat glanced at the little guy, turned a deaf ear to it, and just ran madly, following Xiaojiu's carriage.

Rong Zheng snorted uncomfortably in the car, "I've never seen it so clingy when I was traveling far before. It's getting more and more unruly."

Baochun stuffed a half-bitten strawberry into his mouth and asked, "What's the taste?"

Rong Zheng looked at Baochun, "Sweet, don't you eat it too?"

Bao Chun blinked at him, "I eat sweet, but shouldn't yours be sour?"

Rong Zheng was stunned for a moment before realizing that his daughter-in-law was mocking him, grabbed him and gnawed on her mouth, "Sweet."

Baochun blushed, hurriedly struggled away from the man, sat up straight, glared at him angrily, and warned silently, "Son."

Rong Zheng said in a low voice, "I can't see it, so what are you afraid of? So what if you see it?"

Baochun narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Not much, but at least you will sleep alone for a while."

At this moment, Xiaojiu was really not in the mood to pay attention to what the parents in the carriage were doing, and Ah Zhan outside seemed to be determined, no matter how intimidating and tempting he would not go back, and kept running after the carriage.

He knows that Ah Zhan is bored at home and likes to cling to him. If it’s another place, it’s okay to say, but this time they are going to go out of the border of Dayong to Beiwu, and bring a fierce tiger by their side. They hid their identities this time.

When Xiaojiu was at his wit's end, the big hair in his arms popped out and howled loudly at Ah Zhan outside the window.

The sound was like thunder, piercing the void, Ah Zhan slammed somersaults, fell behind, slowly got up, but did not chase forward, just stayed in place and looked at the direction the carriage was leaving.

Seeing that Ah Zhan gradually turned into a small dot, the little wine was quite unpleasant, so he couldn't help but patted the big hair in his arms, "What are you yelling at?"

There is no time limit for this trip, so they are not in a hurry, and look around while walking.

Right now is the season when the willows are tender yellow and the willows are green and colorful. The scenery along the way is beautiful, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the mountains and rivers are magnificent, and the waves are magnificent.

It's just that the further north you go, the worse the situation is, and the poorer the people's lives, especially when approaching the border.

On the official road that day, along the way, they met many people who moved south with their families, big suitcases and small suitcases, dragging their families with them.

Baochun and the others wondered, what happened to the migration at this time?
When I went up to ask, I learned that they moved their families to avoid the disaster of war.

"Who are you fighting with?" Baochun asked an old man.

The old man looked at the group of them, "Are you foreigners?"

"Yes, we are in business." Miss Zhou replied.

The old man shook his head, "Hurry up and go back, Beiwu's army is coming soon, and it will be too late."

"Beiwu?" Baochun hurriedly asked, "Where did the old man come from?"

"Chicheng." The old man said, "there are tens of thousands of people. How can Chicheng be defeated with such a small force? Once the city is broken, it will be over. Those barbarians in Beiwu will grab everything they see, and they will jump on women when they see it." ..."

Baochun asked Rong Zheng beside him, "Didn't Beiwu not like to attack Chicheng in previous years?"

The old man was the first to say, "That's right, Chicheng is a place with poor mountains and bad waters, and there is not much oil and water to be scraped. In the past, it was rarely disturbed. I don't know why this time. Tens of thousands of people came here, and they are about to leave. It's..."

"Chicheng." Baochun read a sentence silently, and suddenly thought, "Isn't this the place where my stupid brother Shen Cheng was sent to practice?"

If Chicheng was attacked according to what they said, that innocent child with a solid heart would definitely not abandon the city and run away.

This happened so suddenly that no one was prepared for it.

When they came, Baochun also heard from the emperor's father that it was time for Beiwu to harass the border again, but it was not now, but some time later, it seemed that they were ahead of schedule.

They parked the carriage on the side of the road, sat down under a tree, had a rest, drank tea, and discussed and discussed.

Bai Dingshan said, "Moving out tens of thousands of people is not as simple as just grabbing and leaving."

Miss Zhou said, "You think they are too noble. They are not always barbarians who rob when they can, fight when they can, run away if they can't, and continue to fight if they can."

"Take out the map." Rong Zheng instructed Bai Dingshan.

Bai Dingshan took out the map and spread it on the ground.

Rong Zheng looked at it for a while, then frowned and said, "Whether in terms of financial resources or strategic location, Chicheng is not worth attacking. Therefore, the imperial court did not put any heavy troops here. There are only a few thousand city guards in the city at most. , They are Xiang Zhuang's sword dance aimed at Pei Gong."

Xunyang looked at the map of Fan and analyzed, "The closest city to Chicheng is Huocheng. It is not only rich in financial resources, but also an important military strategic location. If you win Huocheng, you can go directly to Guanzhong..."

Baochun looked at the two men, quickly realized what they were referring to, and said in shock, "Chicheng fell, and Huocheng, the nearest city, would definitely send troops to support it, so the strength of Huocheng was greatly reduced. Entering in vain and attacking Huocheng instead. Once Huocheng is captured, Beiwu will follow the army closely. The result can be imagined. Even if the imperial city cannot be threatened in the end, the vitality of the Great Rong Dynasty will be greatly damaged. ..."

Xunyang said, "Hopefully it won't be like what we thought."

Rong Zheng said affirmatively, "I think there's a good chance it's that the Northern Uzbekistan Mission returned in a disastrous defeat, and they haven't swallowed this breath yet."

Xunyang looked at Baochun, "You want to divert to Chicheng?"

Baochun sighed and said, "I have a silly younger brother who serves as the magistrate in Chicheng. This kid has a solid eye. I'm afraid of danger..."

Xun Yang interrupted with a smile, "You have righteousness in your heart, why bother to say that, even if there are no relatives of yours in that city, you will go there."

Baochun said, "My lord praised me too much, and I just know that one sentence, a country is not a country, why is it a home, it seems that we have to bid farewell here."

"How can a country be home without a country?" Xun Yang asked, "Just why do you want to say goodbye?"

"Young Master is not a member of Great Rong, so you don't have to follow us..." Baochun said.

"Since we are together, there is no reason to go halfway apart, let's go together." Xunyang said lightly.

Baochun was overjoyed, "Okay, okay." With Mr. Xunyang, a think tank, by his side, the odds of winning were a little bit higher.
