After rebirth, I became a national teacher

Huijing was very flustered at first.

But she knew that she couldn't make trouble, and now Cihang Temple could only rely on her to take charge of the overall situation.

She immediately asked someone to ring the bell and summoned everyone to an emergency assembly.

She tried not to reveal any panic, and said loudly to everyone:

"Something big has happened at Cihang Temple. Soon the troops from the Nandu Garrison Camp will come to arrest us."

"Now that the abbot is not here, we must first protect ourselves and escape, and wait for him to come back to take charge of the situation. Everyone should pack their luggage within a minute and a half and evacuate immediately!"

"Yes!"

Everyone replied in unison.

Even though they didn't know what was going on, many people were a little panicked.

But thanks to Hui'an who would come back from time to time to train everyone, at the critical moment, the obedience of Cihang's audience came into play.

They were given a minute and a half to pack their luggage, and everyone started to execute the task immediately.

Not long after, the news from the Qin family also arrived.

Qin Dafu said that he had sent someone to inform Hui'an to meet them at the riverside 30 miles north of Yangfeng Town, and asked everyone to go to the riverside immediately.

So Huijing commanded everyone to immediately evacuate down the mountain towards Yangfeng Town via the small path.

Soon, they reached a fork in the road. Mo Niang mustered up her courage and walked up to Qin Zhen Niang, who happened to be staying overnight on the mountain, and said:

"Sister Zhen, it's snowing on the mountain, and the footprints are too obvious. Should we tell Taoist Master Huijing to send some people to cover up the enemy's footprints? This way, if the pursuers come, we can delay them for a while."

Although Qin Zhenniang was also worried about her children and parents at home, she knew that going back to find them now would only cause trouble, so she wholeheartedly followed Cihang and the others to evacuate.

She and Mo Niang both teach at the Salesian Church, so they have a good relationship.

After hearing what Mo Niang said, she felt that it made sense and immediately ran up to tell Hui Jing about it.

"Mo Niang is still very thoughtful."

Huijing immediately adopted Mo Niang's suggestion and arranged more than ten people to cover the rear and wipe out the footprints on the snow.

Although Cihang Temple is full of women and children, thanks to the good meals and regular exercise, even the children in the Salesian Hall are in good physical condition.

However, it was night after all, and the roads were mountainous and snowy, so walking was extremely difficult. They did not reach the river until dawn.

The river bank was very wide. Huijing sent people to search for a long time before they saw a fleet anchored on the river and a dozen small boats waiting on the river bank.

The people from Cihang Temple blew three whistles, and the other side responded with four whistles.

After confirming that they were her own people, Huijing immediately led everyone to walk quickly over there.

As we got closer, we saw Hui'an and dozens of men in uniform waiting on the shore.

"Senior Sister Hui'an!"

Hui'an looked calm, nodded, and said:

"We're afraid there will be pursuers. Arrange everyone on board quickly. We'll cover the rear!"

"Yes!"

Huijing did not dare to delay and immediately organized the Cihang audience to board the boat.

The water near the shore is shallow and large ships cannot pass, so people can only be transported to the large ships by small boats.

A small boat can only carry a few people. Even if there are seventeen or eighteen small boats, they can only carry sixty or seventy people at a time.

There are already seven or eight hundred people in the Salesian Hall of Cihang Temple, so it will take at least ten trips back and forth to transfer everyone to the big ship.

Just when they were halfway through the transfer, they heard a lot of chaotic footsteps coming from behind them.

"Found it! Here!"

Everyone turned around subconsciously and saw at least one or two thousand soldiers rushing up the path behind them.

Obviously, the pursuers are coming!

"Hui Jing, get on board first, we'll cover you!"

Hui'an shouted.

Huijing refused. She gritted her teeth and said firmly:

"Senior sister is more useful than me, you get on board! I'll stay!"

At this moment, someone among the pursuers rode out on horseback and walked to the front of the team.

When everyone looked, they saw that the man had gray hair on his temples and a kind face, and it was none other than the Minister of War of Southern Capital.

He stroked his beard calmly and said with a smile:
