The gentleman is knocking on the door

Chapter 276 Setting Up Obstacles

"Stare at his daughter-in-law and grandson." Mi Congcong said in a deep voice.

A few days ago, she heard from Lou Chenxiao that Wen Tiancheng had come back so soon despite Xu Cunming's objection and brought two escorts out of the city to inquire about news. Judging by Wen Tiancheng's expression, the rebels should not be far from Feiyu County!
Thinking of this, Mi Congcong couldn't sit still, got up and went back to Huafu Street.

"Lou Chenxiao, why did those rebels come so quickly?" Mi Congcong was shocked when he confirmed from Lou Chenxiao that the rebels would soon come to Feiyu County.

"Flying Eagle found out that there is a person who is proficient in the art of war in the rebel army who is secretly advising the rebel army. Now the rebel army has changed its appearance, and it is no longer the unorganized and undisciplined mob." Lou Chenxiao said .

Mi Congcong was shocked: "So, Feiyu County is doomed?"

If this is the case, they must evacuate immediately!
"I have already asked Mo Qi to pick up your mother and grandma and uncle. When they come, they will rest in the county for a day. You should clean up first, and you will take them to Taizhou the day after tomorrow." Lou Chenxiao made arrangements as soon as he received the news , and the Lou family has already set off for Taizhou.

"What about you?" From what he said, is he planning to leave Feiyu County?
"I will go to Taizhou to meet you in a few days later."

"No, let's go together!" Mi Congcong said categorically, and then saw his hesitating expression, and his heart skipped a beat: "Lou Chenxiao, don't tell me you don't plan to leave at all?!"

"Cong'er, listen to me"

"Lou Chenxiao, you bastard, you want to lure me to Taizhou?!" He made it clear that he wanted to stay, and Mi Congcong suddenly became furious and interrupted him: "You also said that the rebels have already It has begun to take shape, and some people have secretly plotted to recruit refugees along the way, and the team has grown, do you think you and Feiying can deal with it with just a few people?"

She also didn't want to see the people of Feiyu County sacrifice innocently and become the souls of the rebels, but that had to be done according to their ability. The only thing they could do now was to spread the news of the call from the rebels and let the people evacuate quickly.

"Cong'er, most of the people in Feiyu County are from poor backgrounds. If the rebels come, where do you think they can escape? Now that Wuqing is full of refugees, where do you think they can be accommodated? Even if there is a place for them Damn, how can they live and live?" Lou Chenxiao said earnestly: "Cong'er, believe it or not, even if we spread the news that the rebels are calling, there are still many people who will not leave. For the rest of my life I will not be at ease when they are killed by the rebels and do nothing."

Mi Congcong stared at him blankly, his eyes were serious like never before, knowing him for so long, she didn't know he had such a great sentiment.

Mi Congcong felt that he should be angry, angry that he was overreaching, angry that he was desperate, angry that he lied to her to go to Taizhou, but for some reason, she actually laughed.

"Cong'er?" He frowned and called out tentatively.

She made him feel uneasy.

"Let Mo Qi send my mother, grandma and uncle to Taizhou, by the way, and the Lin family, I will stay with you!" She said resolutely.

In the last life, the Taizhou army arrived within a few days after the rebels entered the city. If they could last a few days, the rebels might not be able to enter the city!

"No, you have to go to Taizhou!" Lou Chenxiao denied her idea without even thinking about it.

It's too dangerous here, how could he let her stay?

"Lou Chenxiao, I'm telling you my decision, not asking for your opinion!" Mi Congcong said as he turned and went into the study.

Lou Chenxiao was about to catch up, but saw Feiying waiting for him at the end of the corridor, he pursed his lips and glanced at Feiying.

Feiying came to him knowingly, and reported: "Master, everything is arranged, should we spread the news of the call from the rebels now?"

"With the speed of the rebels, how long will it take to reach Feiyu County?" Lou Chenxiao asked coldly.

"Ten days if it is slow, and six or seven days if it is fast!" For them, time is already very tight.

"Set up more obstacles for them, if it can be delayed for a few days!" Lou Chenxiao ordered.

For the sake of the people of Feiyu County, he used the resources left to him by his grandfather, that is, the 1000-man team. Although the 1000-man martial arts are good, they are still fighting the rebel army head-on. However, it is better to set up some obstacles for the rebel army More than enough.

As for when the news of the call from the rebels would spread, he still had to think about it.

If the news spreads out now, the county will definitely be in chaos. This will not help the situation. If it spreads out too late, it will be very dangerous for the people to flee blindly, so this time must be set right. Now he only hopes that the reinforcements will arrive as soon as possible.

Over there, Wen Tiancheng reported the news of the call from the rebels to Xu Cunming, and asked, "My lord, this subordinate thinks that the most urgent task is to gather the young men in the city to defend the city together!"

"My lord, I agree with Wen Butou's proposal!" Duan Kui said.

"My lord, we also agree!" The chief secretary of the yamen and others also echoed.

Xu Cunming's face turned livid. Originally, he meant to let the people evacuate, so that he could take the opportunity to hide with his wife. How could these idiots propose to defend the city? !

No matter how angry Xu Cunming was, he didn't dare to scold them. After all, his arms couldn't twist his thighs. After thinking about it for a while, he said politely: "Didn't Wen Butou say that the rebels are coming in menacingly? If the rebels break through the city and the people in the city have no time to escape, At that time, there will be rivers of blood!"

"My lord, how can you admit defeat before this battle has been fought?" Wen Tiancheng is already dissatisfied with Xu Cunming, and he no longer has the respect he used to say: "My lord is not from Feiyu County, if you want to leave your subordinates, you will not stop me, but here It is the place where the subordinates were born and raised, and the subordinates will not watch their hometown fall into the hands of the rebels, even if they die, the subordinates will die here!"

"We also swear to live and die with Feiyu County!" Duan Kui and the chief secretary shouted in unison.

Xu Cunming's face turned blue and white, suppressed the anger in his chest, and said righteously: "I am the parent official of Feiyu County, how could I leave at this time?"

Duan Kui lowered his eyelids to hide the ridicule in his eyes.

Obviously there is no way out, but he said it so grandiosely!

When Mi Congcong came out of the study, Lou Chenxiao also went out, and she asked the coachman to drive her to Leping Village.

Aunt Zhao's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's eyes lit up when they saw Mi Congcong in women's clothing, and Zhao Youchang stared at her and grinned: "Father said that Dr. Mi is a sister, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

It turned out that Zhao Chuanzhe told his family about Mi Congcong's daughter after he came back from Wushan Town before the Chinese New Year. Aunt Zhao's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were still skeptical, but they saw Mi Congcong coming in women's clothing, and it took a while to recognize him .
