Chapter 445 Gu Nanxi’s Counterattack
The depressing atmosphere in the crowd made Wang Buxi’s originally somewhat proud smile stiffen.
The entire Fuming Town was extremely dull and silent.
The south wind blew the boundary monument away a hundred miles.
Originally, Wang Buxi was very proud of this idea, but for some reason, under this silent protest, he felt that he had done something wrong.
People's resentment is like a flood. This flood will break through the entire Zhou Dynasty and destroy the entire Yunzhou.
Wang Buxi's one hundred miles was like a slap in the face to his own people, blocking the public resentment in the hearts of the people of Yunzhou and preventing them from being vented.
Everyone knew that it was time for them to leave and return to their normal lives, but their legs seemed to be filled with lead and they could not move.
Mush sobs could be heard from the crowd.
The crying was suppressed and aggrieved.
If at first they were boiling hot oil, full of anger and unwillingness.
Now, they are more like children who have been bullied at home. They wanted their parents to help fight back, but because of their high authority, their parents had no choice but to give in.
I can understand it intellectually, but I can’t accept it emotionally.
But out of respect for the general, they had to accept it!
Vice-General Gu Hai, Wang Buxi, Yan Tongchu, and the entire Gu family army fell silent.
The excitement of secretly doing something big last night was gone.
Niu Jinyi took a deep breath and called to the other masters and students: "Let's go. The general has tried his best! Yunzhou is still weak and cannot withstand attacks from both sides."
Xia Le Zhi followed Niu Jinyi without saying a word. He had never shed a tear from last night to today. At this moment, his tears were like broken pearls, gathering into two streams on his face.
Niu Jinyi patted the shoulders of the masters who were sitting in silence one by one. They stood up slowly, saluted respectfully to Gu Nanxi, and then walked towards the crowd with difficult steps.
Mrs. Niu, who was watching, covered her mouth, the makeup on her face was stained by tears.
Lord Niu on the side sighed repeatedly: "You can't blame Gu Nanxi, she has tried her best! What else can be done? You can't raise the flag of rebellion! If you really do this, Yunzhou will be finished!"
“I know, I’m just in trouble It’s so frustrating! You took a concubine three months after your wedding, and you didn’t make me feel so depressed!” Yes, why do you feel at this moment that it would be better to fight with a real sword and a real gun? !
The crowd slowly started to move. They lowered their heads, walked heavily, and their originally straight spines bent slightly.
Gu Nanxi's hands were clenched tightly. They were obviously showing consideration for her, but this consideration was like the silent question, which made Gu Nanxi's heart ache.
The sun is scorching in the sky and the temperature is even hotter than the previous few days, indicating that spring is over and summer is coming.
However, this heat is not as good as the fire in my heart.
Gu Nanxi closed her eyes, and it seemed like a moment had passed, and then it seemed that several years had passed.
Gu Nanxi opened her eyes and said hoarsely: "Lu Mei."
"Master, I am here!" Lu Mei led several young men, holding full armor, and knelt down down.
The crowd paused, turned around, and looked at the sky in Yunzhou, with expectations and disbelief in their eyes.
“Put on armor.”
Gu Nanxi’s voice was calm and emotionless, as if she was talking about a trivial matter.
“Yes!” Lu Mei choked, with tears in her eyes.
Lu Mei stood up, her waist straight like a strong bamboo.
She took the armor from the boy's hand and carefully put it on Gu Nanxi. Every move she made was full of piety, as if she was serving the gods in her heart.
Gu Nanxi stretched out her hand and asked Lu Mei to put on the arm guards. Then her calf sank and Lu Mei tied the hanging leg for her.
Lu Mei picked up the chainmail inner armor and buckled it on Gu Nanxi one by one.
Bright armor, breast shield, waist protector, leather belt, shawl...
Finally, Lu Mei knelt on the ground, holding a ring-headed knife in both hands, with firm eyes and a loud voice. Some broken words: "I wish the general a triumphant return!"
As soon as these words came out, the guesses of everyone present were completely confirmed. The suppressed tears of the people finally became uncontrollable.
They were crying and laughing, and said in unison: "I wish the general a triumphant return!"
Gu Nanxi rode on her white horse and said condescendingly: "Where are the generals? ?”
Deputy generals Gu Hai, Gu Shisan and others came to Gu Nanxi in three steps and knelt down on one knee, forming a formation of hundreds of people.
"The general is here!"
Gu Nanxi: "Follow me to the battle!"
"Take orders!"
The crowd tacitly moved out of the way.
The Gu Jiajun who could not squeeze into the crowd followed the team one after another.
The crowd moved with Gu Nanxi.
They sent Gu Nanxi and the Gu Jiajun all the way to the north gate of Fuming Town, shouting non-stop.
“Long live the general!”
“May the general return in triumph!”
Gu Nanxi is riding on a white horse, wearing a golden-winged helmet and a long The sword and armor glowed golden in the sun, and his face was serious. The picturesque brows and eyes contain not the kindness of the past, but perseverance and composure!
She didn't look back, but lightly kicked the horse's belly. The white horse rushed out of the city gate like an arrow from its string.
Gu's army followed closely behind them on brown horses.
The earth trembled, and waves of loess were splashed by horse hooves outside the city gate.
Under the scorching sun, in the loess, their figures are moving forward in an incomparable way!
Mrs. Niu stood at the gate of the city, unwilling to leave for a long time. Until she could no longer see the backs of Gu Nanxi and others, she felt a little disappointed: "I wonder if the general can succeed this time?"
Niu Jin put his arms around Mrs. Niu's shoulders, looked at the north, and said softly: "No matter whether the general has achieved results or not, her expedition this time is a victory!"
The general went out in person to fight the south wind blowing northward. A hundred miles away, these are two completely different concepts!
The general went out in person to declare to the whole world that Yunzhou is not a soft persimmon! Yunzhou has a sword, and he dares to draw it!
Even if there is no victory, it is all for the sake of the court.
Mrs. Niu stood at the gate of the city, like a watchstone.
Niu Jin smiled and said: "Auntie, if you really want to help the general, why not help her raise supplies?" The general went on the expedition in a hurry and did not bring any provisions. Even though the general was as fast as the wind, You can fight with war, but you can't prevent accidents. Auntie, do you think Mr. Wang is already busy?"
Mrs. Niu took a look at the city and found that Wang Buxi and Yan Tong were together. At first, all the officials were so busy that they had to run when they walked.
Mrs. Niu suddenly slapped her forehead: "I am good at raising military resources! Son, I will go and get busy first!"
Niu Jin looked at Mrs. Niu's fiery back, shook his head and laughed.
But he also has to be busy!
To ensure the general's logistics, Wang Buxi and others alone are not enough. They, the masters from Baichuan Academy, must also go and take action.
“Son.” Master Niu called to Niu Jinyi.
“Dad, what’s the matter?”
Master Niu was a little coy: "I'll go with you."
"Huh?"
Master Niu was a little angry: "Why are you laughing? I am also a general of the country, and I am fighting a war. Much better than you!”
“I got it, Dad”
