The gentleman is knocking on the door

Chapter 285

"I made some food at home. Before the rebels arrive, you can ask Brother Shangshi to eat something at home together." Mi Congcong said.

"The rebel army will arrive soon, we can't leave now, Brother Shi and Wen Butou are still making deployments." Mi Dayuan said without thinking.

"If the deployment has not been completed by this time, there is no need to deploy it." Lou Chenxiao said: "The rebels have already arrived at the door, so what's the point of deploying now?"

Wen Tiancheng, Shi Chunbo and another city guard general came over, just when they heard Lou Chenxiao's words, the city guard general smiled and said: "Master Lou is right!"

"Tao Baihu." Lou Chenxiao didn't feel embarrassed by his arrogant words just now, and greeted the visitor calmly.

What surprised Wen Tiancheng and others was that Tao Yufeng actually explained to Lou Chenxiao: "Young Master Lou, in fact, we deployed it a few days ago. Isn't this the rebel army coming soon? Just try to be as foolproof as possible, right?"

Duan Kui sent those dozens of bows and crossbows just in time. If those crossbows are used well, they can be worth a small team. , but Duan Kui still told Tao Yufeng in private, so Tao Yufeng's attitude towards Lou Chenxiao made everyone feel weird.

Lou Chenxiao twitched the corners of his lips noncommittally, and said to Mi Dayuan and Shi Chunbo: "There are Tao Baihu and Wen Butou here, so it won't take much time for us to go back to have a meal."

"That's right, Brother Da Yuan, Yun Kou made chicken soup and cooked some dishes, let's go back and eat some." The battle is imminent, and Mi Congcong still has a lot to tell Mi Dayuan.

"Eat?" Tao Yufeng looked at Lou Chenxiao with a smile: "Young Master Lou, don't you mind if I go to eat with Wen Tutou?"

Mi Congcong looked up at Tao Yufeng, and frowned imperceptibly.

Is this Tao Baihu reliable? The rebels have already arrived at the door, and he is still in the mood to go to their house for a meal?Isn't this AWOL?

At this moment, Midayuan said, "Zi Rui, Cong Cong, Tao Baihu and Wen Tutou haven't eaten all day and night."

Lou Chenxiao smiled: "As long as Tao Baihu and Wen Butou don't dislike it, our husband and wife are of course welcome."

"Mi Dayuan has been praising the delicious food of your family these days, how could we dislike it?" Tao Yufeng laughed, and then the deputy general confessed in a low voice, and then followed Lou Chenxiao back.

Mi Congcong went back ahead of them, telling Aunt Cai and Yun Kou to cook more meals, while Tao Yufeng walked up to Lou Chenxiao, walked side by side with him, and chatted while walking.

When Mi Congcong and Yun Kou delivered the food to the dining room, they saw that the empty bowl on the table was turned upside down on the table, and a few chopsticks were placed horizontally on the bowl, like a formation, and Tao Yufeng said excitedly : "I didn't expect Young Master Lou to know the art of war!"

As soon as Lou Chenxiao looked up, he saw his daughter-in-law standing at the door with food, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Let's eat first."

The few people ate very fast. After eating, under Tao Yufeng's strong request, Lou Chenxiao followed them to the city gate, because just received the news that the rebels were only four or five miles away from Feiyu County.

"Stay at home obediently, you are not allowed to go anywhere, do you hear me?" Before going out, Lou Chenxiao pinched Mi Congcong's face and told him worriedly.

"I want to go to the hospital to help."

Lou Chenxiao hesitated for a while, and made a concession: "Let Feiying follow you, and come back if there is any danger."

"Okay, you have to be careful yourself!" Mi Congcong looked at him worriedly.

She was only helping to heal the wounded. If she hadn't met an assassin, she wouldn't be in any danger, and his risk factor was much higher than her going to the city gate.

"Brother Dayuan, be careful, don't be impulsive!" Seeing Mi Dayuan running out excitedly, Mi Congcong shouted at his back in fear.

This war is not a joke. If you are not careful, you will lose your head. Why is my cousin acting like a joke?
"Don't worry, I have told Huoying to be by your cousin's side to protect him." Lou Chenxiao hurriedly left after speaking.

After Lou Chenxiao left, Mi Congcong took Xiuxin and Feiying to Xieyang Street. The rebels would arrive soon, and they wanted to send the medicine to the city gate to treat the wounded.

Yun Kou and Aunt Cai saw that Gu Tong and the others hadn't come to eat for a long time, so they sent the food to the medical clinic.

When Mi Congcong arrived at the medical center, he saw Xiao Can was ordering the drug boy to help put the wound medicine and hemostatic medicine into baskets, and was about to move them to the city gate.

Mi Congcong helped pack up the medicines and left the clinic. Before reaching the city gate, he heard screams from the city gate.

Everyone's expressions changed.

The rebels are attacking the city!
"Quick!" Gu Tong and Kong Zhao rushed out carrying the baskets first, and Mi Congcong also ran after realizing it.

Along the way, I could see many women and children running home in a panic. The street was in chaos. Mi Congcong was almost knocked down several times, but fortunately Xiuxin helped him in time.

Feiying listened carefully, frowned and said: "The rebels attacked the east and west gates at the same time!"

Mi Congcong sank violently, the rebels knew they were few and purposely dispersed their forces!
There are only 5000 people in Feiyu County, including the guards and men in the city, and the resistance will be even weaker if they are dispersed. What should we do?

"Girl, you and I go to the west gate, and Kong Zhao and Xiao Xiao go to the east gate!" The little old man made arrangements as he headed for the west gate with a basket in his hand.

Mi Congcong knew that it was useless to be anxious, so he put away his anxiety and followed the little old man.

The long ladder on the rebel side climbed up the city wall, and the two sides fought with each other, and the shouts were deafening.

When Mi Congcong came to the west city gate, a few bloody people were being carried down from the city wall. Gu Tong quickly took the medicine boy and a few older children who had been taken in to help in the medical center to pick them up.

"Hurry up, bring the person here!" Gu Tong said, pointing to an open space tens of meters away from the city wall.

Without hesitation, Mi Congcong hurried forward to stop the bleeding of one of the wounded.

The wounded man was a man in his 40s. He looked like a commoner in the city. There was a long and deep wound from his left shoulder blade to his right chest.

"Will I die?" The man asked with a bloodless face, and there was panic about death in his eyes.

He was just an ordinary citizen, and he never dreamed that he would go to the battlefield one day, and he might even die on the battlefield.

"No!" Mi Congcong tried his best to look better, with a faint smile on his lips, and quickly sprinkled the hemostatic medicine on his wound.

"what--"

The man yelled in pain, Mi Congcong shook his hand slightly, but the smile on his face remained unchanged: "Just bear with it, you'll be fine soon."

They had no painkillers and anesthesia, so the wounded had to endure the pain.

The blood was bleeding so badly that there was no way to clean his wound, so he had to stop the bleeding first.

Perhaps it was the calm smile on Mi Congcong's face that calmed the panic in the man's heart, or because Mi Congcong told him that his life was not in danger, the man's emotions gradually calmed down.
