Chapter 197: The disciples of sages
"Breaking the city and making a contribution!"
When the vanguard succeeded, Lu Si was very happy. More than 2,000 Huai Army soldiers riding mules, donkeys and packed horses rushed from the old beach of the Yellow River to the Andong County.
After that, more than 3,000 infantrymen held spears and shields, just like when the muddy water of the Yellow River crossed the old road, the shouts of killing resounded over the southern city.
Outside the city, the people were shocked and everyone was in danger.
In the city, screaming and crying.
The magistrate of Andong, Lin Xianglian, just learned that the department was in a coma and was about to bring some medicinal materials to visit. He heard the crying and screaming outside. He didn't know what happened, so he took his people out to check. Before he could reach the yamen, he saw dozens of people and several servants who went to Daji to collect taxes and rushed in in a panic, shouting that some thieves had entered the city.
Lin Xianglian was shocked and almost collapsed on the ground.
Someone from the third squad woke up and quickly closed the door, put a bamboo ladder on the wall and looked out. He saw that there were thieves riding mules and horses chasing the soldiers guarding the city on their left and right. The thieves were very fierce, and even the people running and running in front of them were chopping over them.
"Dashun troops arrived, Dashun troops arrived!"
The servants heard the loud shouts of the thieves, and mules, horses, donkeys and hooves were everywhere. I wonder how many thieves had entered the city.
"Tao Zheng, yamen, yamen!"
"Run in and capture the ward, brothers will make great achievements!"
Zheng Dafa, who was originally from the Ming army of Li Shiyuan's army and was later incorporated into the New First Battalion, did not know big words, but knew what the yamen was like. Seeing that the gate of the yamen was closed and someone looked around the wall, he thought that the yamen was hiding in it. He picked up the whistle hanging around his neck and blew it up. Suddenly, dozens of soldiers who heard the whistle gathered.
Some of them used knives to chop the gate of the yamen, and some were looking for something to climb the wall. How could the servants inside dare to fight against these fierce "thieves"? They ran to the backyard to find a way out without waiting for the county magistrate to speak.
The living trees fell and scattered.
Listening to the sound of the bandits smashing the door, Lin Xianglian was scared to death and his face was pale and trembled all over. Fortunately, the master Ma was smart, so he immediately carried the county magistrate on his back and ran back desperately.
I don’t know where this old scholar got the strength.
On the other side of the school in Andong County, the teachers were teaching students. However, the people rushed into the school and shouted that the bandits would come. At first, the teachers and students didn't believe it, but they ran to the Confucian school to see what was going on, but they were so scared that they turned around. It turned out that a large group of thieves were rushing down the street.
The students could not kill thieves without the power of a chicken. The same was true for the teachers. In an instant, the county school became a mess, and teachers, students and the people were running around, tables and chairs were overturned, and saints were all over the place.
There was a scholar who was in his 1940s and failed the exam. The county was particularly kind and gave a chance to donate a prison boy to take the opportunity to study in the county school. This person may have been stupid enough to read and didn't know how to hide. He just held the Five Classics and muttered to himself: "School... the place of saints, how do bandits dare to rush in? Don't panic, don't panic, the saint teaches Mount Tai to press the top without breaking..."
Before he could finish his words, he was pushed to the ground by his classmates and scolded: "The saint also said that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, and if you don't run away, don't block our way..."
The teacher Lin stomped his feet in a hurry: "What should I do, what should I do!"
I don’t know what to do, Teacher Lin finally ran to Minglun Hall to hide, but saw that the county magistrate was hiding here at some point.
After Master Ma ran out of the county government with his enthrone on his back, he had nowhere to go because there were bandits everywhere. In the end, he had no choice but to hide in the county school with his enthrone on his back. He thought that this place was a place for saints after all, and no matter how fierce the bandits were, they could not even loot the places where scholars were, and they would kill people randomly.
Magistrate Lin was sitting straight on the ground like a soulless fool.
Seeing that there were many students hidden in the hall, Teacher Lin was afraid that the thieves would rush in and kill people, so he stepped forward and grabbed County Magistrate Lin's clothes and begged the parents to come out quickly.
Magistrate Lin did not have any rules of law. He was really annoyed by Teacher Lin. Suddenly, he stood up. Everyone thought the county master had an idea, but saw that the county master took off his black hat and threw it on the ground with his hands and feet, then quickly took off his official robe and continued to sit on the ground.
When everyone saw this, they were speechless and knew that this parents could not count on them. At the same time, many defeated soldiers and the people rushed into the land of sages in panic.
Everyone thinks that thieves will be respected by sages, so they can save their lives by hiding them in it.
But Minglun Hall is just a palm-sized place, so how could it accommodate so many people? Teacher Lin was anxious and shouted that teachers and students should close the door quickly.
Unexpectedly, when the people outside the door heard that the door was about to close, they were all anxious and rushed up one after another, insisting on squeezing inside. How could the door be closed in this situation?
Teaching Lin had no idea for a moment, and didn't know if it was closed or not.
A defeated soldier who had hid in earlier without saying a word, waved his sword and chopped over a commoner who was about to squeeze in to the ground. Then he waved his hand and shouted: "Brothers, close the door!"
The sword was bloody and immediately shocked the people outside the door, but the people behind were still squeezing forward, but they squeezed the people in front. The defeated soldiers who were eager to save their lives killed people again, and five or six were chopped down in an instant.
The people outside were frightened and shouted filthy words, but they did not dare to squeeze forward any further, and they still had not dispersed. They didn't know where to run, and the streets were full of bandits.
Although the teachers and students at that time were scared by the defeated soldiers, they really didn't dare to squeeze in when they saw the people outside, and they didn't know whether they were grateful to the defeated soldiers or hating them.
The thieves obviously did not respect the land of sages. A large group of thieves holding big swords rushed in from the Confucian school. After finding many people in front of them, the thieves immediately approached with swords.
The people were panicked. There were thieves in front of them, and the door behind them was closed, so there was nowhere to escape. Amid the screams, Tong Sheng, holding the classic, took his head out of the crowd. He pointed to the thieves and shouted angrily: "The people are so innocent, how can you kill them indiscriminately! If you want to kill people, kill our sages and other children!"
"Hey, there's a nerd!"
The Yuannan Inner Guard Battalion, who led his subordinates to fight and earnestly, made the garrison in Nandu, amazed the words of the general Cao Yanhu calling this nerd. With a wave of his big sword, he was about to kill a sage's children and play with it.
But behind him, a shout came: "Don't kill people randomly!"
Cao Yanhu turned around and looked, and immediately bowed and bowed. It turned out that the Grand Governor was here.
"May I have your name?"
On the right, Lu Sichao looked over the middle-aged man standing in front of everyone.
The middle-aged Tongsheng was not afraid at all. He looked straight at the "thief's head" immediately and shouted: "My name is Wang Baoqing!"
Lu Si nodded, pointed at Wang Baoqing, chuckled, and said, "You are a good person, you are a little brave. This magistrate of Andong County is you."
