Rise From the Humble

"You are thoughtful." The general looked at the beggars and gangsters in front of him with approval, and nodded without hesitation, "Since you know how to repay your kindness. When the prodigal son turns back, how can I be a bad person? Your repayment of kindness will be the way for the prodigal son to turn back, and your invitation to fight will be determined by me."

The officials and people nearby couldn't help but nod their heads. Beggars still know how to repay kindness.

The local ruffian and prodigal son turned around and took the initiative to fight against the Japanese pirates. This is really a good story. This world is ultimately a glorious road, and this world is ultimately our Ming Dynasty! There is still hope

see!!

The positive deeds of beggars and gangsters asking for tassels to defend the city spread instantly.

Zhang Jing and other officials on the city wall soon learned the news.

"A beggar will repay his kindness, and a scoundrel and a prodigal son will turn around. Okay, okay, okay. Spread the news quickly to boost morale."

Zhang Jing couldn't help but nodded when he heard this. The gloom between his brows was diluted a lot by this good news. The Japanese pirates were showing off their power below the city, and the morale of the city was greatly affected. This news came just in time, and it was a good opportunity to boost morale, so He made a prompt decision and ordered people to spread the news throughout the city to boost morale. "

Soon, with the promotion of Zhang Jing and others, the news spread throughout the city wall and reached the ears of every soldier and civilian guarding the city. Everyone was greatly encouraged, and the negative voices on the city wall were finally reduced a bit. .

"Yes, yes, beggars and ruffians have come to defend the city. The military morale is available. I feel a lot more at ease now." At the Ande Gate, Duke Wei showed a smile and said to the Marquis of Linhuai beside him. .

The Marquis of Linhuai also nodded, the worry on his face lessened, and he became more interested, "The beggar who knows how to repay his kindness and the ruffian who turned back are on that wall, I will go and see them. If they perform well this time, it will be a good story to give them a birth certificate after the war."

"Let's go and have a look together." Wei Guogong also became interested.

So, the Duke of Wei and the Marquis of Linhuai joined hands to summon a general who was responsible for recruiting the people, and asked him which section of the city wall the beggars and ruffians were.

"Go back to the Lord, Lord Marquis." The general handed over his hand and was about to reply when he heard a loud "boom" from below the city. The city wall shook slightly. The words in the general's mouth were interrupted by this shock.

The expressions of Wei Guogong and Linhuai Marquis could not help but change.

"Report, the Japanese pirates under the city put gunpowder into wine jars and threw gunpowder at the city gate. Fortunately, General Yu's magic shot prevented the Japanese pirates from getting close to the city gate, so they had to attack the city wall. The explosion just now was the gunpowder thrown by the Japanese pirates." A soldier looked frightened. He warned, and at the same time reminded him worriedly, "The young one saw that there were several wine jars in the hands of the Japanese pirates. They are probably filled with this kind of gunpowder."

"What? The Japanese pirates still have several jars of gunpowder in their hands?! If they get close to the city gate and blast them, will the city gate be in danger?!"

People on the city wall were once again panicked, as if the city gate would be blown up by Japanese pirates anytime soon.

This news could not be blocked. Everyone on the city wall could see the wine jars placed on the carriages behind the Japanese pirates.

These wine jars cast a thick layer of gloom over the city, and the crisis of city destruction lingered in everyone's mind.

Tremendous stress!

Terrified!

Morale dropped to freezing point again.

"Which section of the city wall are the beggars and gangsters who took the initiative to fight? Let's go and see them, reward them in advance, and encourage their morale." Wei Guogong withdrew his eyes from the Japanese pirates outside the city, looked at the general with a heavy face, and then He asked once, wanting to encourage morale again by rewarding the beggar and ruffian.

"Returning to the country, the Duke and the Marquis, they are not on the city wall yet." The general replied.

"Huh? Didn't they take the initiative to ask for a fight? Why aren't they on the city wall?" Linhuai Marquis asked in confusion.

"I'm about to report to you that beggars and gangsters are asking for a fight. They want to help defend in the most dangerous place, that is, at the city gate. They said that the Japanese pirates have been eyeing the Andemen gate and tried to attack the gate many times, so they If they want to help defend the city gate, if the Japanese pirates are lucky enough to break through, they will defend the Ande Gate to the death. They will not let the Japanese pirates step into Yingtian even if they die, and they will not let the Japanese pirates hurt any of the people in Yingtian. I cannot be the master of my humble position. , I also ask your lords to decide how to deal with the beggars and gangsters who take the initiative to fight."

The general responded with clasped fists to Wei Guogong, Linhuai Marquis, and nearby officials such as Zhang Jing, asking them to make a decision.

After Wei Guogong and Linhuai Marquis heard this, their eyelids twitched and their whole bodies were shocked. They thought of Zhu Ping'an's instructions yesterday and looked at each other in tacit understanding. Their eyes were filled with shock, solemnity and a hint of "nothing can be found after wearing iron shoes." It’s a surprise that takes no effort at all.”

"Okay! They will go wherever the danger is most. These beggars and gangsters have the style of ancient righteous men!"

After hearing the general's report, Zhang Jing and the surrounding officials couldn't help but nodded and looked at the beggar and ruffian again.

"Now the Japanese pirates are trying to break through the city gate with jars of gunpowder and wine. The pressure on the city gate has increased greatly. It is the time to recruit people. Since they have taken the initiative to request to help defend the city gate, what reason do we have for not agreeing to them? This will definitely be a good story after the war. ah."

"Of course, I would like to second my opinion."

"Seconded."

The surrounding officials spoke one after another.

"Okay, then arrange them to the city gate and give them weapons to help defend the city gate." Zhang Jing nodded.

"Here!" The general took the order and was about to turn around and go down to make arrangements when he heard a "No!"

"No!" Wei Guogong and Linhuai Marquis stopped him in unison.

"Huh?" Zhang Jing frowned and looked at Wei Guogong and Linhuai Marquis, and asked doubtfully, "Master Xu and Master Li, why did you stop them?"

"That's right. This is a good story, just perfect for boosting morale. Why are the Duke and the Marquis such a disgrace to the scenery?!"

"Just now, the Japanese pirates used gunpowder to blow up the city gate. The city gate is in danger. They took the initiative to ask to stay in the city gate to help defend. This is a good thing. There is no reason not to agree to them. Why did the Duke and the Marquis stop it?"

"Beggars repay their kindness, and ruffians and prodigal sons turn around. They asked for help in defense at the most dangerous city gate. They refused to agree to this request. The Duke and the Marquis were a little unsatisfactory, right? Or should I say the Duke and the Marquis? Are there better arrangements for them?"

The surrounding officials spoke one after another, accusing Wei Guogong and Linhuai Marquis, both overtly and covertly.

"Not only can we not agree to them, but we have to send heavy troops to strictly guard them and screen them carefully."

The Duke of Wei and the Marquis of Linhuai spoke with solemn expressions.

"What? Not only can't you agree, but you also want to take them into custody?! What did the Duke and the Marquis say?! People are beggars who repay their kindness, and the ruffians turn around and take the initiative to ask for a fight. You actually want to send troops to take them into custody? Get up?! Please forgive me for saying such disrespectful words. Is this what you are saying?"

"Bullshit!"

"What nonsense!"

Before they could finish their words, the surrounding officials couldn't help but shook their heads and interrupted them with indignant voices.

Zhang Jing frowned and looked at Wei Guogong and Linhuai Marquis, but after seeing the solemn and serious expressions on their faces, he couldn't help but be startled for a moment, and then frowned in thought.

Hu Zongxian, who was standing aside, noticed the unusual behavior of Duke Wei and Marquis of Linhuai. If he was moved, he also frowned and thought.
