Well, in fact, the military discipline of the army led by King Zuo is indeed not very good, but it is not cannibalistic. It is common to kill people casually.
Of course, no matter what, the appearance of these dozen reconnaissance cavalry caused chaos in the county.
Cui Zhixian hurriedly summoned all officials to discuss how to defend against the enemy.
The chief registrar, the county captain, the edict, the patrol inspector, the warehouse ambassador, and even the head catcher who had no rank at all were all present.
It should be said that at this time, the inspection had changed from his former future father-in-law in Fang Town to his former future uncle.
The former future father-in-law died of serious injuries three years ago when he accidentally fell off his horse while out riding for hunting, so his former future uncle took over.
However, compared to Lin Menglin's inspection, Lin Xuefeng's inspection seemed much worse.
It should be said that at this enlarged meeting of county officials, more than a hundred regular soldiers were patrolling, and they should be regarded as the bosses who walked the talk.
But Inspector Lin has been silent since arriving at the meeting.
Even when Cui Zhixian personally called his name and asked him what should be done, he said that he should do it according to the wishes of the adults. He was just like a clay Buddha.
Anyway, I won’t express my opinion. If anything happens, you can arrange it. If you say one more word, I will lose!
Seeing that Inspector Lin was really unwilling to say anything, Cui Zhixian had no choice but to do what he had discussed with the officials.
First, he sent people to his superiors, the magistrate of Huangshui Prefecture, to prepare troops and prepare emergency warnings. Then he recruited strong men from the whole city and handed them over to Lin for inspection and training. At the same time, he did not forget to allocate expenses to the gentry.
After all, there is not much money left in the county warehouse. Even if you want to do something, without the support of the gentry, there is nothing you can do.
As Donglin County was put on full alert, the gentry and gentlemen scattered in various towns and villages rushed to the county town for refuge, dragging their gold, silver, jewelry, wives, children, and concubines with them in their carriages.
No way, there is no habit of building earthen fortresses in this area. The most wealthy families can do is build higher walls and recruit a few more strong men to fill the facade.
Isn't it funny to use this method to fight against the approaching Zuo King's army?
In a critical moment, both jade and stone will be destroyed!
In fact, it was not only the gentry who fled into the city for refuge, but also many smart-minded common people who fled into the county town.
Even many farmers near Sanhuangguan began to flee.
A kind-hearted farmer came to remind Fang Xiaoyue, but he didn't care at all about the words that King Zuo's army was about to kill, and that no chickens or dogs would be left behind, etc.
After all, it's no longer the time when he just arrived.
Let King Zuo let his horse come over!
But before Zuo Wang's army came over, my sister's family arrived at the Three Emperors Temple.
They were planning to take the two children back to the county for refuge, and by the way, they persuaded Fang Xiaoyue to go back with them.
But how could Fang Xiaoyue be willing to go back to the county town? When Zuo Wang's army arrived, wouldn't the Three Emperors Temple suffer if she wasn't here?
It is said that the Kingdom of God on earth is extremely hostile to heretics.
Especially for the Buddhist and Taoist religions, all the temples and Taoist temples along their march routes were reduced to white ash.
Don’t ask why, just ask because God doesn’t like it!
Therefore, Fang Xiaoyue was determined not to go to the county seat, and considering that the county seat was actually not safe, he forcibly left his brother-in-law and his family behind.
Li Zaixing said that there is a paralyzed mother at home.
Fang Xiaoyue waved her hand, saying it was okay, and then sent a team of more than ten strong men in yellow robes to the county seat to invite the old mother back.
The only troublesome thing is that there are only three wing rooms in the Taoist temple.
Fang Xiaoyue lived in one room, the two little brothers lived in another room, and the down-and-out Taoist priest Huang Muyun lived in another room.
If my brother-in-law and his family move in, there will be no land left.
At least the couple can live in one room, and the old mother can live in another room, right?
But this is not a big problem. Fang Xiaoyue has many strong men in yellow robes.
After dozens of yellow-robed men were busy for two days, two more rooms were opened in the backyard of the Taoist temple.
After all, as Fang Xiaoyue's ability to cultivate immortality has increased, the strong man in yellow robe transformed from the talisman, although his strength is still average, his mind has become a lot smarter.
Things like building houses, digging ditches, digging eels, catching fish and shrimps are all out of the question.
Of course, things like cooking and cooking are still relatively difficult housework for the strong man in yellow robe.
As the brother-in-law and his family settled in the Taoist temple, the two little brothers could no longer hide things like practicing Taoist scriptures every day.
As the situation has changed over the years, my brother-in-law has finally understood it. He often says at home that the world may change dynasties at any time.
Therefore, he no longer had high hopes that the two younger brothers would really be admitted as scholars.
After all, if the dynasty really changes, what if he is admitted as a scholar?
Will the new dynasty still recognize the talents and candidates of the previous dynasty?
But her sister Fang Xiuyun was very angry. She grabbed Fang Xiaoyue and complained for a long time.
After all, a full-time housewife like Fang Xiuyun has a somewhat limited vision. She only knows that by passing the exam, she can rise to the top and revive the Li family.
She would not like it if her two sons practiced Taoism as crazy as her younger brother.
The only good thing is that these two children are indeed smart.
Li Cunmang would not go into details. He was really bad at cultural subjects, but he was extremely talented in martial arts.
It has only been half a year since I arrived at the Three Emperors Temple, and my martial arts skills have almost reached the level of a martial arts master.
Even though he was a child, he had no problem beating three strong men with his bare hands.
But Li Chizhang was different. Even though Fang Xiaoyue taught few cultural classes, he still learned it.
In Fang Xiaoyue's words, it is not certain to be a candidate now, but it is safe to be a good candidate.
Having said this, Fang Xiuyun just let his brother go.
However, Fang Xiuyun also made up his mind. After the military disaster passed, he would take his eldest son back to the county town, seek a better teacher, concentrate on his studies, and prepare for the exam with all his strength.
Fang Xiaoyue didn't know what her sister was thinking at all. He was busy calculating the days and when would be the best time to harvest so that he could eat new rice.
But three days later, the vanguard battalion of King Zuo's army, totaling 3,000 troops, marched into Donglin County in a mighty manner.
There are more than thirty reconnaissance cavalrymen in the Pioneer Battalion responsible for reconnaissance duties along the route.
Soon, the Three Emperors Temple nestled among the yellowing crops came into view of the cavalry.
"Is that a Taoist temple?"
"Go! Burn it!"
After the cavalrymen whispered to each other, they slapped their horses and ran towards the Three Emperors Temple.
As they passed along the way, the war horses trampled the rice fields, stamping pieces of rice into the mud.
"Uncle! Uncle! Oh no, some cavalry are coming to kill us."
Li Cunmang, who was responsible for ringing the bell on the bell tower, saw this scene and was so frightened that he dropped the hammer and ran down the bell tower to inform Fang Xiaoyue.
Fang Xiaoyue naturally knew.
