"Then, that shouldn't be such a big deal! If the enemy has any conspiracy, kill another carbine! Our city wall is undefended, wouldn't it be dangerous?"
It was obvious that Ma Zhou had been shaken by the soldiers, but he was not willing to show his cowardice in front of others, so he had no choice but to continue scolding him!
When the soldier saw this, he understood something in his heart. Although he was a little disdainful of this old man who pretended not to understand, he still put on a smile on his face and said:
"Yes, yes! What the boss said is absolutely true! But our general is not completely unprepared for this! Our spies are scattered on the city wall and even outside the city! Once there is a change, we can warn you as soon as possible !
Moreover, although the general had withdrawn most of his soldiers to rest, they were not all sleeping to death! At least one-third of the brothers just took a short rest and did not sleep, so that if a situation arises, they will resume fighting as soon as possible! "
"Oh, this...this is more or less the same!"
After learning the truth of the matter and finding a ladder to get off the donkey, Ma Zhou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
At this time, when he thought about his actions just now, he couldn't help but blush!
Still caring will lead to chaos!
Look at other people, this person who has been fighting all his life is not in a hurry. How can I, a weak scholar who has even touched a knife, be so anxious?
Could it be that there are so many professionals, but it’s better for a layman to understand? Or am I the only smart person in the world?
Thinking of this, Ma Zhou's face became hot. When he saw that he had already reached the gate of Guanyi, he hurriedly muttered: "Okay, I'll go take a look. I won't be relieved until I see this thing with my own eyes."
After that, he crossed the threshold and walked into the darkness outside without looking back.
"My lord, my lord! Do you want me to give you a ride?"
Behind him, the loud shouts of the soldiers sounded. Ma Zhou paused when he heard the words, and continued to hum without looking back: "No need! I know the way!"
After saying that, my pace, which was not slow at first, became a little faster. When passing an alley, I almost missed the step and fell out on the spot!
"Hmph! You deserve it! Come and question our general! Who do you think you are?"
At the entrance of the hotel, looking at Ma Zhou's staggering appearance not far away, the soldier who was smiling just now had already changed into a look of disgust! Seeing that there was no one around, he spat hard at the figure in the darkness, then hummed a small tune and walked through the door.
Although Niu Jinda has a stubborn character and is unkind, he is also for those who make mistakes! For the people around him, Lao Niu is quite good and even somewhat protective.
Therefore, the soldiers around him have extraordinary respect for Niu Jinda. What they usually look down upon the most are those bastards who slander his master!
Today, if he were not afraid of causing trouble for his master, the soldiers would definitely take advantage of the dark night to secretly follow Ma Zhou, go to a secluded place, put a sack on his head, and then serve him with a bunch of sticks!
Ma Zhou slipped away. He was very aggressive when he came, but he was in a sorry state when he left.
It stands to reason that if two people with the same temperament are put together, they will never get along well with each other.
However, since late that night, in the following days, the two people strangely did not have any conflicts.
One of them was in charge of the military affairs in the city, and when it came to arranging military supplies, Ma Zhou didn't make any trouble at all, and even opened the door to convenience everywhere.
One quickly started to take charge of political affairs, and soon filled the gap of Jinan City officials who had been wiped out. Jinan City was plunged into wartime, and the dispatch was in an orderly manner.
This unimaginable scene not only shocked the people of the Li family who were lurking in the city, but even Niu Jinda himself felt a little uncomfortable.
However, fortunately, Lao Niu is also an open-minded person by nature. Even if he cares about it, it is only about the principle of right and wrong. He is too lazy to investigate the reasons for such trivial matters! Don’t you allow others to treat you better?
————————————————————————
Time passes day by day.
In the blink of an eye, almost half a month has passed since the original battle of Jinan siege.
In these days, Jinan City suffered several sporadic attacks.
But compared to the previous times, these siege teams spontaneously formed by refugee bandits were even more embarrassing!
Every time he rushed forward excitedly, he was beaten until he cried for his father and mother. He only regretted that his parents had given birth to two legs and could not run any faster.
And winning several battles in succession has completely lifted the morale of the soldiers in the city who were usually slack in training!
If it weren't for the fact that there were refugees all over the mountains and plains outside the city, and they couldn't finish the fight even if they were beaten, these soldiers would have already encouraged Niu to enter Dakai City Gate and rush outside the city to kill them wantonly.
However, speaking of the refugees outside.
Compared with before, it seems to have doubled again!
This is because the first batch of refugees, in these days, broke into many normal villages and cities, robbed everything they could, and moved away everything they could!
Some of the people who grabbed the top really thought that they were bandits and robbers, and burned them all with a fire!
Once disturbed by these people, the people who were still living normally lost everything in an instant!
In order to survive without money, home and food, they had to grit their teeth and join the ranks of the refugees, robbing other people's things with red eyes.
The chaos of large numbers of refugees. It's like a contagious virus! It spread quickly in this originally hard-working and simple land!
The fields that had been cultivated were laid waste, the workshops that made a lot of money every day were abandoned, the tea stall outside the ten-mile pavilion turned into a pile of ashes, and the roads were littered with hacked corpses.
No one knows when these people died here, and no one cares what they died for.
Under the chaos, human life is equivalent to nothing!
These people may be trying to get a bite to eat, or they may be trying to protect their wives and children, or they may be killed by evildoers for a trivial reason!
In short, in a place where there are no legal restrictions or moral restrictions, there is no need for any reason to die! Killing someone does not require any psychological burden.
Here, the evil in human nature is infinitely magnified!
Of course, among this chaotic and bloody refugee team, there are some who want to rise up and resist, while others do not want to join in the trouble.
However, their voices were so weak that they were soon drowned in the land.
After all, when everyone around him becomes a villain, if a good person stands there, he will automatically become a villain in everyone's eyes!
