Chapter 540 Then I’m welcome
This morning was destined to be no ordinary morning.
The army in the clouds appeared in Shuozhou like heavenly soldiers and generals.
Many Shuozhou civilians discovered that something was wrong as soon as they got up.
"Today, why don't you see the young steward of the Yan family running rampant on the street?"
Although he is said to be a minor steward, he is actually a low-level domestic servant. He just relies on the fact that he is from Yanjiapu and most people don't dare to offend him.
The common people couldn't afford to offend him, so they all took a detour.
However, the vendors who came out of the morning stall today did not see the little steward.
"It's really strange. Not only the steward didn't come, but there were also many fewer guests." The vegetable farmer carried a load of vegetables with a sad face.
Normally it would have been open at this time, but today not a single customer was seen.
The vegetable farmer looked at the empty space next to him again, wondering.
The most diligent man is always the first to arrive at the market, so why is he still here? Could it be that you are sick?
People just don't talk about it. As soon as the vegetable farmer muttered a few words, he saw the man running over sweating profusely, and almost half of the water in the bucket was spilled.
"What happened? How can you sell fish when all the water is gone?" The prices of live fish and dead fish are different.
In order to sell more money, this man brings a bucket full of water to the market every day.
The man came to his seat, put down the bucket, wiped his sweat, his hands and legs were shaking.
The vegetable farmer silently took a few steps away from him: "Are you catching a cold?"
When the other vendors heard this, they also took a few steps away from the man.
I can't afford to get sick these days.
The pharmacies and medical clinics in Shuozhou are all owned by the Sun family, and the medicine prices are ridiculously expensive.
When an ordinary family gets sick, the good result is that the family is completely devastated. The unlucky ones are unable to be saved, and the whole family becomes slaves of the Sun family.
The man's lips kept trembling. After taking several deep breaths, he finally spoke tremblingly: "No, I'm not sick! Oops, something big happened! Duke Yun sent people to surround the Yan family, the Sun family, and the Du family! ”
"Huh?!"
"Isn't Duke Yun from Yunzhou? Why did you come to our Shuozhou?"
"Yesterday, I heard the young steward laughing at Duke Yun. Even if Duke Yun comes to Shuozhou in person, he still won't return the food! The Yan family is the king of Shuozhou! Is Duke Yun taking action today? ”
There was a lot of noise in the market, and many residents gathered over after hearing the news, saying something to each other.
"If Duke Yun takes action, he will definitely teach them a lesson!"
"Then you think too simply! If Duke Yun goes over to take over, he must not be reprimanded by the officials?! Think of our former governor!"
"That's right, these families are twisted into one, and they are the local snakes in Shuozhou! Even the dragon crossing the river cannot defeat the local snakes!"
Shuozhou officials, who were not far from the market, also heard the news.
The former governor, Mr. He, has been deposed, but the new governor has not yet taken office. How can this be resolved?
"It's not a good thing! If it's your normal value, no one will report the crime, right?"
"Just watch?"
Sima Shuozhou was holding a book on war and was drowsy: "Do more and you will make more mistakes, do less and you will make more mistakes, and if you do less, it will be better."
"But the Jia family has sent someone to ask us to send troops!"
Shuozhou Sima lowered his eyes, making it unclear what he was thinking. The officer on the side stamped his feet anxiously: "Sir, please say something quickly. The Jia family said that Duke Yun has surrounded the Sun family, the Du family, and the Yan family! These families are not easy to mess with. They are closely connected with Kyoto. ! ”
Other officials whispered: "Sir, Mr. Yun Guo is so angry that he has made such a fuss, and they can't do anything to him. We want to stay in Shuozhou forever. If we don't take action, we are afraid that we will be beaten by those families. Hold a grudge!”
"Sir, if you don't want to offend Duke Yun, the worst we can do is move slower, but we have to send troops! It's unjustifiable both emotionally and rationally."
"Sir, if the governor is not here, you have the final say in Shuozhou. If you don't send troops now, once Yun Guogong leaves, those families will complain to Kyoto, and I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything!"
If you don’t listen or don’t listen, you are just like a bastard chanting sutras.
Shuozhou Sima tilted his head and snored loudly.
The officials in the Shuozhou official office were so anxious that they could do nothing. After all, only the Sima of Shuozhou could mobilize troops.
The Xia family waiting in the government office raised their eyebrows when they saw the officer, and scolded: "The situation is urgent, why haven't we sent out troops?"
The officer had a sad face and said weakly: "Master Sima doesn't issue an order, and we don't do anything."
"Are you crazy? Do you think Duke Yun is here and can support you?! She only wants some food and gold and silver. Is it possible that she can take over Shuozhou?! Wait for her Once we leave, aren’t we the ones who have the final say in Shuozhou?”
The police officer also knew this truth, but Sima didn't listen!
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
No matter how much the Xia family cursed and even rushed to Shuozhou Sima and roared loudly, none of Shuozhou's soldiers moved.
"Just wait for me! You will have a good life in the future!" The Xia family walked away.
……
The outer wall of Yanjia Fort is covered with dense archery holes. The guards of Yanjia Fort squat in front of the archery holes, holding their bows and arrows, ready for action at any time.
The head of the Yan family stood on the arrow tower and sneered: "Mr. Yun, our Yan family fort is armed to the teeth. Let me see how you can chew it!"
The granary in Yanjiapu is full of grain, and dozens of wells have been drilled in it, enough to ensure drinking water.
As for meat, cured and smoked meats hang from the eaves.
Even if Duke Yun besieges them for a month or two, the people of Yanjiabao will not have to worry about food and drink.
I just don’t know if Duke Yun can persist for that long!
"Mr. Yun Guo, our Yan family is also a loyal and patriotic generation. I admire you greatly for your ability to regain the Sixteenth Province of Youyun! We are willing to offer a thousand stones of wheat to show our respect."
A thousand stones?
One stone weighs ten dou, and one dou weighs about twelve kilograms.
With ten thousand catties of grain, you just want to leave by yourself. Are you sending a beggar away?
Gu Nanxi laughed loudly and said: "I appreciate the kindness of the Yan family. But I don't like to owe anyone any favors. I only like to use my own things!"
Gu Nanxi glanced at the incense that had been burned to the end, her smile faded, and she said seriously: "It's time! Has the head of the Yan family made a decision?"
The head of the Yan family felt that Gu Nanxi had too much appetite, so he decided to teach her a lesson: "Please take it for yourself, Duke Yun!"
Gu Nanxi: "Then I won't be polite!"
Gu Nanxi waved her right hand.
All three thousand soldiers were seen wearing masks.
Several soldiers dismounted and lit several long fuses on the ground.
The sparks were like a long snake, carrying the smell of gunpowder, burning all the way to the bottom of Yanjia Fort.
The head of the Yan family and the guards all stared at this scene curiously.
What is Duke Yun doing? Is it possible to set off some fireworks before a battle?
Before they could come up with an answer, there was a loud noise that made everyone's ears ring and their ears dazzled.
Then the ground shook, like an earth dragon turning over!
