The captain also knew the seriousness of the matter, so he did not try to persuade him, but bowed again and said:

"I know this matter is very serious and will implicate the general, so everything is entirely up to the general."

Zhao Yang stood up, his bright armor clanking, and he walked out of the city gate tower quickly with steady steps.

The heavy rain poured down, making his armor crackle.

In the view obscured by the rain, there is a vast open space.

Countless refugees huddled together for warmth during the heavy rain, looking extremely pitiful.

The noisy sound of heavy rain could not cover up the mourning and begging sounds from the countless refugees.

Zhao Yang took a deep breath, and suddenly remembered an article that his teacher had taught him in the past. He murmured:

"Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs!"

"The saint is unkind and treats the common people as stupid dogs!"

"Damn it, we are not heaven and earth, nor are we saints. We can't do things without emotion."

"If Sanlang of the Fang family can do it, why can't I, Zhao Yang, do it!"

"These are all human lives, do it!"

next moment.

Zhao Yang said to the soldiers around him:

"Lead my horse here, I am going to the palace to see the emperor!"

"Here!"

......

Outside the city gate.

Fang Yiyi, sitting in the carriage, saw that a lot of temporary porridge sheds had been built to provide shelter for the refugees, but they were still a drop in the bucket.

Looking at the women, children, the elderly and the young crowded in the porridge shed, and seeing so many people huddling together for warmth in the heavy rain, he felt extremely suffocated and a strong sense of powerlessness arose in his heart!

Chai Xueying, who was standing by, looked at the numb and desperate faces outside the carriage curtains, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"My husband, you are clearly able to rescue these refugees and keep them alive."

"Why is God so cruel?"

Fang Yiyi stretched out his hand, held his wife in his arms, raised his hand, and gently wiped away the rain that hit his wife's face through the window.

And he whispered: "God is not cruel, he does not know the sufferings of the world."

“All of this is suffering that everyone will suffer.”

"It will pass, and the sun will come out after the rain. If it doesn't pass, then it's just everyone's fate!"

Chai Xueying buried her head in Fang Yiyi's thin and warm arms and began to sob.

After a while, the carriage stopped and Li Qiu's voice came from outside the window.

"My dear, General, the second wife of the Du family is organizing refugees to cut down trees and build wooden sheds. We can't pass through now."

Upon hearing this, the two of them immediately opened the curtains, and the heavy rain fell into the carriage.

Chai Xueying wiped the tears from her eyes and saw a hazy, thin figure through the rain. He was standing on a high platform, waving his arms and directing something.

It was such a heavy rainstorm and Du Guiru was standing so high, braving the wind and rain. His heart tightened and his eyes were full of concern.

Chapter 413: Sisterly Love, Chai Xueying and Du Guiru Join Forces

Du Guiru is frail and doesn't know any martial arts, yet she stands so tall.

If one is unstable, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Fang Yiyi said quickly: "Xueying, you wait in the carriage, I'll go take a look."

Chai Xueying quickly grabbed Fang Yiyi who had just stood up and said quickly:

"Husband, you are weak, please wait here, I will go and see."

Without giving Fang Yiyi any time to question her, Chai Xueying dragged him back into the carriage, picked up the oil-paper umbrella beside her, and rushed out.

Fang Yiyi rubbed his aching buttocks, helplessly watching his wife running wildly in the rain, and sighed:

"Hey, a grown man, but he's not as strong as a woman. How shameful!"

But the next moment, Fang Yiyi felt warm in his heart and said proudly:

"Hehe, but this is my wife, she's better than me, I'm proud of her!"

Having said that, Fang Yiyi quickly took the oil-paper umbrella and got off the carriage.

Even though Chai Xueying is more skilled than him, he is not so weak that he needs his wife to stand in front of him.

On the high platform.

The violent storm made Du Guiru's body shake.

The straw raincoat she was wearing seemed to be weightless in the heavy rain, and the rain was splashing away with every move she made.

Chai Xueying was very skilled and easily made her way through the crowded crowd and ran up to the platform.

At this time, her body was completely soaked by the heavy rain, and she immediately threw away the oil-paper umbrella in her hand that was of no use at all.

"Gui Ru, it's raining so hard and you're weak, go back quickly."

The relationship between Chai Xueying, Du Guiru and Li Lizhi has made rapid progress since the Qujiang Banquet.

Especially yesterday when we worked together to distribute porridge to disaster relief, it’s no exaggeration to say that we are like sisters.

Du Guiru saw that Chai Xueying had thrown away her oil-paper umbrella, and her hair was messed up by the rain, with strands of hair sticking to her face.

She immediately took off her hat and put it on Chai Xueying, and said with concern:

"It's raining so hard, why did you throw away your umbrella? Put it on quickly. It's cold, don't hurt yourself."

Chai Xueying put the hat back on Du Guiru's head and said without question:

"I have been practicing martial arts since I was young. I have fought on the battlefield for so long. This little bit of wind and rain is nothing to me. My body can handle it."

"You, on the other hand, must be more careful."

Du Guiru was so moved that she tightly grasped Chai Xueying's hand, and then quickly explained:

"It's better for me to take command from here."

“No one else can give orders.”

With the title of the most talented woman in Chang'an and what Du Guiru has done in recent days, Chai Xueying sincerely admires Du Guiru's talent.

Now that I heard him say this, I knew that this was an emergency and I had to take the necessary measures, so I stopped trying to dissuade him.

She said decisively:

"Okay, if there's anything you need me to do, just tell me."

"I'm not as smart as you, but I have a lot of strength and can mobilize some troops."

Manpower is in short supply right now.

It would be even better if we could mobilize strong soldiers.

When marching and fighting, the soldiers have sufficient experience in setting up tents, and it is even easier for them to cut down trees and build simple wooden houses!

Du Guiru had thought about transferring some troops before, but she had no official position.

When you come, ask the garrison commander to send out some soldiers from the city gate.

The other party gave help to the ten people because of their identities as the daughter of Prime Minister Du and the daughter-in-law of Cheng Yaojin.

If the Tang Dynasty Valkyrie appears, the number of soldiers that can be deployed will naturally increase greatly.

Du Guiru said quickly:

"Then I'll trouble you, sister. Please help me. Please transfer as many as you can!"

Chai Xueying nodded and immediately said to Li Dong who was following her:

"Use my token to mobilize troops from Mingde Gate!"

“Yes!” Lidong went to do it immediately.

At this time, Fang Yiyi also ran over with an umbrella.

Chapter 414 Husband, Leave this to us

Fang Yiyi placed the oil-paper umbrella over Chai Xueying's head and said, "

"How could you be so reckless that you even lost your umbrella!"

Then he looked at Du Guiru with concern and worry.

Seeing that she was soaked all over, her delicate body was shivering in the cold rain even with the cover of a straw raincoat.

He resisted the urge to step forward and spoke as naturally as possible:

"Second Madam Du, please go down quickly. Your body cannot handle this."

The intelligent Du Guiru felt her lover's deep concern from these words.

She raised the corners of her mouth and said with a firm look:

"It doesn't matter. These refugees need me."

Without waiting for Fang Yiyi to speak, Chai Xueying looked at Fang Yiyi firmly and said:

"Husband, leave this to us."

"Go to Zhuangzi, that thing is more important!"

He sighed, but Fang Yiyi did not have any outdated idea that men are superior to women or women are inferior to men.

Seeing that the two women could not be persuaded, he nodded and said:

"Okay, then I'll go to Zhuangzi first. If there's no problem, I'll bring the people from Zhuangzi over here!"

There are hundreds of strong and healthy descendants of the Yuancong Imperial Guards in Zhuangzi.

These people were all involved in building the training ground and the houses before, and they have a lot of experience in infrastructure construction!

"Husband, please go quickly!" Chai Xueying urged hurriedly.

Du Guiru wanted to say a few more words to Fang Yiyi, but after hearing what he said, she lost the desire to talk and just used her eyes to remind Fang Yiyi to take care of his health.

Fang Yiyi nodded, turned around and left without saying anything more.

He said to Li Qiu who was driving the carriage:

"Leave the carriage to me, you stay here and protect the lady."

Li Qiu frowned immediately and refused:

"My dear, this won't work, you..."

Fang Yiyi interrupted Li Qiu directly and said without allowing any refusal:

"There are many refugees here, and I'm worried that Madam will only have Lidong by her side."

"It's raining heavily now, no one will deal with me at this time!"

"Besides, there are refugees all along the way, and they will not make it difficult for the Fang family's carriage."

Li Qiu wiped the rain off her face and looked at Fang Yiyi's determined expression under the oil-paper umbrella. She could only compromise and not waste any words.

He directly handed the raincoat to Fang Yiyi.

Fang Yiyi drove the carriage towards Fang family's No. 1 farm.

Inside the training base.

The descendants of the Yuan Dynasty's imperial guards, including the Snow Leopard Guards and Zhou Peizhao, were complaining bitterly during their training.

Although there were cries of grief, everyone had a serious expression and trained hard without slacking off in the rain.

When Fang Yiyi arrived at the training ground in a horse-drawn carriage, everyone was running wildly in the heavy rain, holding up thick wooden stakes that were as big as a man could hug.
