Zhang Tu left, and the soldiers on the city began to be busy again.
The people in Jinsuo Pass are also panic-stricken now. Four hundred thousand rebels are pressing down on the border. If they are asked to flee at this time, many people are unwilling to leave.
Thanks to Liu Deng's good policies, many people now finally have their own houses and land. If they leave like this, many people can't let go of this family property.
"Master Taifu, this is General Luo's residence..."
Although Luo Chenglong was unwilling to let Zhang Tu take away his wife and children, Zhang Tu still insisted on coming to the Luo family.
He had read Luo Chenglong's information before coming here. The Luo family was passed down through three generations. In his generation, the couple had three children, but unfortunately, the first two died in infancy.
There is only one son now. If Zhang Tu doesn't take action, I'm afraid the Luo family will be extinct!
He knew that this battle would only lead to death in the end, but he was willing to die for his family and country!
Such a loyal man, Zhang Tu couldn't let him die like this!
Even if they die for the country, I should let them have incense to worship them during the New Year and festivals, so that they will not become lonely ghosts in the future!
"Go up and call the door!"
Zhang Tu got off the carriage and said to the guards beside him.
"promise!"
"Is anyone home?"
Several guards hurried forward, knocking on the door and shouting.
"You are?"
It was not long before an old servant opened the door with a puzzled look on his face, then looked at Zhang Tu and the others curiously and asked.
"My master is the Taifu of Daiguo. Is Mrs. Luo at home? Please ask her to come out and answer!"
Zhang Tu respected Luo Chenglong as a person, and the servants around him naturally also respected Ma Meijuan.
"Master Taifu, please come in, I'll go find Madam right now!"
The name of Tai Tu frightened the old servant, and he quickly asked Zhang Tu and others to sit in the living room first.
"Why is this house so deserted?"
As they walked, Zhang Tu asked curiously.
The house is not that big, with two courtyards at the front and back. The front is considered a reception area, and the back should be their residence.
However, along the way, there was actually no servant at all. According to Luo Chenglong's rank, there should be five or six servants in this family, right?
"Aren't the rebels coming? Madam was kind-hearted and let all the maids and women go to fend for themselves. All those who could escape have now escaped!"
The old servant said with some regret.
"When the nest is overturned, how can there be any intact eggs..."
"Master Taifu, please sit down for a moment. I will go and invite my wife to come here!"
The old servant asked Zhang Tu and the others to sit down, and then hurried to the backyard to ask for his wife.
It was not long before a woman in her thirties walked in behind the old servant with a puzzled look on her face.
"The daughter of the people, Luomen Ma, has met the Grand Tutor! I wonder what you want to do with the little girl?"
Although Ma Meijuan is just a female prostitute, even though she is a bit aggressive in normal times, she is not too scared when she sees Zhang Tu now.
"Don't be nervous. I'm here today just because the battle at Jinsuoguan is about to begin. I don't want to see our loyal soldiers die like this, so I want to take you mother and son to Jinyang. What do you think?"
When Zhang Tu spoke, his attitude was also very kind, which made Ma Meijuan feel a lot more at ease.
When she heard the next words, Ma Meijuan's eyes instantly turned red...
In this Golden Lock Pass, all those who were able to escape have left now, but Luo Chenglong is unwilling to let his mother and son leave. For this reason, the couple have been having troubles these days...
Now when I see Zhang Tu arriving, all the grievances I have felt these days have suddenly turned into tears...
"Master Tutor, I just ask you to take my child with you. I know that everyone in the city is ready for a fight to the death. However, the third generation of the Luo family was single, and my mother-in-law took her with her before she died. My hand, let me leave a queen for the Luo family, I can’t let her old man’s trust go!”
While Ma Meijuan was speaking, she knelt down in front of Zhang Tu and burst into tears.
"What are you doing? If you are willing, take the child back with me! This child is still young, and it is when he needs you!"
Zhang Tu's eyes were slightly red for a moment, and he quickly stepped forward to help her up.
"Master Taifu, although the little girl is a woman, I have heard some things. There are still hundreds of thousands of people in this city. If the little girl is gone, others will poke his spine... ..”
For safety reasons, the city has now been completely closed, and all the strong men in the city have begun to register. There are a team of 100 people, and they are ready to go to the city at any time.
Without Luo Chenglong's nod, not even a fly could fly out. These days, people kept trying to use the back door, but they were all driven out by Luo Chenglong.
This is really not Luo Chenglong's selfishness. The current situation is actually like this. Otherwise, I am afraid that Guancheng cannot even be defended for three days...
"Go and clean up the child, but don't stay too long. I will leave in an hour!"
Looking at the toddler peeping outside the door, Zhang Tu also felt a sore nose...
"Thank you, Master Taifu, for making it possible! Thank you, Master Taifu, for making it possible!"
As Ma Meijuan spoke, she kept kowtowing to Zhang Tu.
The child didn't know why his mother was crying, but he timidly came to his mother's side and kept reaching out to help his mother wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Zhang Tu slowly closed his eyes, unable to bear to watch this scene of mother and son parting...
An hour later, there was a crying child on Zhang Tu's carriage, and they slowly left Jinsuoguan...
He still has too many things to deal with, and he can't stay here for a long time. He can only hope that Luo Chenglong and the others can buy more time!
The sky is slowly getting dark, but the rebel camp under the city is now brightly lit!
All siege equipment has been allocated and all combatants are ready.
With the rumble of war drums, the first battle between the two sides is finally about to begin!
"Dong——"
"Dong——"
"Dong——"
The sound of war drums coming from the city was like the roar of bloodthirsty beasts. Everyone knew that the war was finally about to begin.
The hearts of the people in the city were tightened. The success or failure of this battle would determine the fate of the entire Jinsuo Gate and everyone. However, in the face of the torrent of world affairs, they could only go with the flow...
"Come on, everyone, get ready! First mobilize 10,000 civilians to help carry supplies, send out patrols, and be careful to guard against enemy scouts secretly sabotaging!"
Luo Chenglong took a deep breath, everything was finally coming!
Life or death depends on fate!
