Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Hu said heartbrokenly: "Send him another set of colored glass cups."

The housekeeper stood and continued to listen to the instructions. Seeing that Zhao Hu was speechless, he couldn't help but look at him in confusion.

Zhao Hu jumped, "I gave him another set of glass cups. Do you think he still needs me to come and apologize in person? Does he love you or not? If he doesn't get along well with you, am I going to get along with him easily?"

The butler bowed his head and retreated.

Zhao Hu spun around twice, but finally lost his temper and shouted loudly: "Come here, hitch the car!"

He is going to Shangcai to settle accounts with Zhao Hanzhang!

Zhao Hu left immediately, but the housekeeper couldn't persuade him, so he could only stand at the gate of Wubao and watch him off.

Zhao Hu only took a few guards with him before going out and heading towards Shangcai.

Hurry up and you should be able to reach Shangcai's manor by nightfall.

Zhao Hu was angrily, banging on the wall of the car from time to time to urge, "Hurry up, hurry up. Is it because you haven't eaten or the horse hasn't eaten grass?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the coachman suddenly stopped the carriage. Due to the inertia of Zhao Hu, he suddenly fell forward and hit the coachman's back. He was so angry that he shouted loudly: "You bastard, what are you doing?"

"Lang, Master..." The coachman pointed forward with a trembling voice.

Zhao Hu only had time to look up, but the guard had already reacted and immediately jumped off the horse. He shouted, grabbing the carriage to turn around, "Master, it's a rebel army!"

The road was not wide enough, but the guard did not bother to slowly turn around, and directly pulled it into the ground. The green seedlings stepping on the beans turned their heads, and then patted the driver, "Hurry up and hurry up!"

The coachman came to his senses, flicked his whip, and the carriage ran out instantly.

The guards protected the carriage and ran quickly, all the way back. When they met the farmers who were still working in the fields, they shouted loudly: "The enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking - return to Wubao quickly!"

The wind blew the sand into the mouth, and the guards continued to shout.

Soon, there was no need for them to shout, because the people on the Wubao sentry house also saw the dust flying in the distance.

The sentry post on the Wubao immediately lit up the smoke and then rang the bell.

The people working in the fields first heard the bell, and when they looked up at Wubao, they saw smoke as thick as black ink.

The people in the fields were all stunned, and then they immediately reacted, carrying farm tools and started running home, "Run, run."

A child ran away and wanted to go back to pick up his shoes. An adult grabbed his clothes, clamped them around his waist, and ran away. "When will I need my shoes again? Run barefoot and hurry!"

Zhao Hu staggered around and kept hitting, and he felt like vomiting blood. He grabbed the window and tried to steady his body. He stuck his head out and looked back. He saw the looming people and horses in the distance really coming towards them. He couldn't help but curse. "Where did the rebels come from? How dare they come to Xiping to run wild..."

They had not gone far in the first place, so when they returned, they hurriedly hit the horses to speed up, and soon arrived at the gate of Wubao.

The man guarding the door opened the other two doors, allowing the carriage and farmers to run in.

The movement quickly alerted Zhao Song and Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming hurriedly put on his shoes and ran out. When he saw his father dragging his clogs and walking out, he quickly stopped him and said, "Father, why don't you gather the clan elders to discuss a strategy to retreat from the enemy? I'll go to the fort gate to have a look."

Zhao Ming rode away and when he arrived at the fort gate, troops had already arrived. The farmers who had run back from the fields changed their clothes when they got home, put on their weapons and ran out.

Zhao's Wubao's military units are military units during wartime, training during leisure time, and going to the fields when farming is busy.

Zhao Ming climbed up the city tower and could already see the rebel army rushing towards them. There were more than a dozen horses in front, followed by infantry in a chaotic manner. At a glance, there were no less than a thousand people.

Zhao Ming was puzzled, "Where did these people come from?"

Zhao Hu climbed up the tower and held on to the stone pier to catch his breath, "Have you seen clearly? Is it an enemy attack?"

Zhao Ming didn't answer. Zhao Hu stepped forward to take a look. When he saw someone waving a flag among the rebels, he couldn't help but look closely. After a while, he pointed to the flag in surprise and asked, "Liu? Which Liu? Why are there two flags?" , what’s another word?”

Zhao Ming's expression changed slightly and he clenched his fists, "You can't see clearly, but as long as it's not Liu Yuan, the Hun army, that's fine."

The rebels gradually approached, the gate of the Wubao was slowly closed, and the suspension bridge was raised. Zhao's Wubao instantly became an island-like existence, facing the approaching rebels across a canal.

Zhao Hu was working hard to count the people, and the experienced scout had already said: "Lang Jun, their number is about four thousand."

Zhao Hu felt a chill in his heart and almost fell to the ground, "We only have a thousand troops in Wubao. Counting all the young men, there are only more than three thousand. Can we hold it?"

"Uncle Qi, please go home first. I am here," Zhao Ming said, "We have sent people to the county to ask for help. So many rebels suddenly entered Xiping County. Prefect He and the county magistrate will send people to rescue them."

Zhao Hu sat down on the ground, looked up to the sky and cried loudly: "Why am I so unlucky? I was deceived by you and Sanniang, and in the blink of an eye I encountered something like this again."

Zhao Ming warned him, "Uncle Qi, be careful. Now that the enemy is in front of you, if you mess up the morale of the army, don't blame me for being merciless."

When Zhao's Wubao moved, Buqu and Qingzhuang were divided into two parts, and Buqu was assembled first.

Over the years, they have occasionally been attacked by refugees and rebels, but the scale is not large. This is the first time that so many rebels have suddenly appeared without warning.

Zhao Ming couldn't figure it out, where did these people come from?

The Zhao family has Zhuangzi fields all over the place. Regardless of whether they are coming from the direction of Shangcai or Yangcheng, they should have received the news.

Zhao Ming turned around and looked in the direction of the county seat. Zhao's Wubao was not very far from the county seat. If there was smoke going off here, the county seat should receive the news soon.

At this time, they should react, either come to rescue, or... close the city gate to resist the enemy.

Zhao Ming was deep in thought when he suddenly saw raging smoke coming from the direction of the county seat.

Zhao Ming's heart sank, and he dragged Zhao Hu, who was still crying, down to the tower. He Buqu ordered: "Guard the Wubao and go to the arsenal to bring the crossbow machine."

"yes."

Zhao Ming dragged Zhao Hu for a while, and Zhao Song arrived with the clan elders, "How is the situation?"

Zhao Ming casually pointed to a small restaurant nearby and said, "Go in and talk."

After entering the restaurant and sending the rest of the people out, Zhao Ming said: "Father, Xiping County has also been attacked. I'm afraid there are many enemies. I'm a little worried. I'm afraid Xiping and Wubao can't be defended. "

"Xiping is in the middle of Runan. With so many rebels, how did they come in quietly?"

How did Zhao Ming know that it was no longer the time to discuss this? Zhao Ming said: "Father, the first priority is to think clearly, should we defend or should we open the door and welcome people in?"

Zhao Song's face was serious, "If we open the door to welcome people, do you think the Zhao family can be saved?"

Zhao Ming said, "We can save it for a while, but not for a lifetime. We can't abandon our women and children, and men can't break their backs."

See you tomorrow
