After dressing as a widow

The yamen guard at the gate of the county yamen and the guards next to the three inspectors who lived in the county yamen saw a man galloping towards this side on a horse from a distance, and hurriedly stood up and stretched out his hands to stop him.

Gu Lin on the horse's back grabbed the reins fiercely, jumped off the horse with its front half raised, and his face turned pale: "I am the leader of the tenth small flag under the inspector Lu, and I am ordered by the inspector to investigate the enemy's situation." , There is an urgent military report."

There are Lu inspectors standing guard here, and they also heard that the new team leader from Tenth Xiaoqi has amazing archery skills and is still young, which makes people wonder if he was reincarnated from a monster.

At this moment, seeing Gu Lin coming at a gallop, he said: "The inspector is in the house, let me lead the team in."

Gu Lin nodded to the soldier, and followed him into the room where Lu inspector lived in the county government.

"Inspection, the leader of the tenth small flag came to report that there is an urgent military situation."

The strong and dark-skinned inspector Lu looked at Xiaobing and Gu Lin who was following him: "Quickly tell me."

Gu Lin's chin was dripping with sweat, and his face looked tired: "According to the inspection order, my subordinates took the tenth small flag along the way to investigate the enemy's situation, and found the enemy's traces in Majin River, which is about 150 miles away from Anyuan Town. , but not only the more than 500 refugee troops I encountered when I returned to Anyuan Town with my relatives, but also more than 1000 people, about [-] in number."

"They are coming to Anyuan Town at first glance, and they will be able to reach Anyuan Town in less than three days,"

Gu Lin found out about this last night, and immediately rushed back all the way. It took almost half a day for running and riding, and only came back today when the people from the county government just woke up.

According to his calculations, the group of refugee troops would be able to reach Anyuan Town in three days at the latest, or in two days at the earliest.

Lu Xunjian is a person who arranges troops to fight, and he knows best what the dangers of the disparity between the two sides are, which means that their blocking or attack can be exchanged for a small price from the other side, and they cannot afford the price that others can pay.

Inspector Lu stood up from his chair without hesitation: "This news is true!"

"It's true, the people from the tenth flag are behind, I will go ahead, and they will come back soon."

Inspector Lu called Gu Lin: "You and I go to the lobby to find the county magistrate immediately," and then told the soldiers, "You immediately go to Inspector Zuo and Inspector Wang, and let them meet in the lobby."

Lu Xunjian is a quick-tempered person, and he behaves like this in everything he does. He hurried to the place where the county magistrate entertains guests. get up.

Inspector Lu's voice was like thunder: "I'm about to die and I'm still sleeping. Hurry up and call your lord."

The servant was embarrassed: "Master Inspector, it's not that the young ones don't call, but that the master always sleeps until two quarters later. At this time, it is very temperous to call, and the young ones don't dare."

Inspector Lu's face was as black as ink, and he walked out of the lobby and went straight to the main room where the county magistrate slept, kicked open the closed door and walked in.

The county magistrate, who was sleeping soundly in the room, was awakened by the loud sound of knocking on the door, and got up from his concubine's bed: "Who made such a big noise—"

The curtain was lifted suddenly, and I saw Lu Xunjian, whom he had entrusted with a heavy responsibility, standing in front of his bed, like a door god. Seeing such an impolite rush to the place where he slept, he was also furious.

But inspector Lu didn't give him a chance to get angry at all, and quickly told the news brought by Gu Lin.

The anger on the face of the magistrate turned into fear in an instant, and he almost stumbled and fell when he got out of bed. Gu Lin grabbed his shoulder and looked at him: "My lord, many people in the town are looking at you to make up your mind. The charter has not yet been negotiated, and everything is still unknown.”

"Two thousand refugee troops, we only have 400 people, plus the unarmed militiamen are only 700 people, how can we negotiate anything, run for your life." He is still a bastard in Kyoto, he will be rich all his life, but if his life is gone, then he really has nothing.

Gu Lin's hand was still holding onto his shoulders, and he looked at the official uniform and official hat placed aside: "My lord, we are not only 400 people, but also [-] people in the town, and tens of thousands of people in the surrounding villages. "

Gu Lin walked over, took the official robes and uniforms, handed them to the county magistrate, and said to the servant who served the magistrate: "Make up your appearance, my lord."

The magistrate of the county realized that this little scholar was actually forcing himself to do something. He pointed at Gu Lin and said, "Bold!"

"Come here, take out this unknown Gu Lin and cut it off!"

Inspector Lu frowned and looked at Gu Lin. He didn't do anything, but looked at the servants of the magistrate who heard the voice coming in. Obviously, he agreed with Gu Lin's approach.

At this time, the enemy is approaching. If the county magistrate leaves, it will only make the people in the town more panic. Under the chaos, they can't go far, and those who can't go can only wait here to die. Facing those murderous people, The ferocious and brutal refugee army, these people who only support their families on weekdays, have no power to fight back, and they will only be reduced to dead souls when they encounter them.

Looking at Gu Lin and Lu inspector, the county magistrate still doesn't understand that he has recruited the wolf back and become the wolf's puppet.

He was trembling with anger: "Okay, very well, you are very well."

"Change clothes for me!"

Seeing him standing there and allowing others to dress himself, Gu Lin and Lu inspector went out.

Lu Xunjian looked at Gu Lin as if he was looking at a strange object: "You boy, you are very courageous."

The expression on Gu Lin's pale face was light: "The inspection is not timid."

"Hahahaha." Inspector Lu did not expect that Gu Lin was not only courageous in his actions, but also very interesting in his speech. He said, "Come with me to the lobby later to discuss this matter."

"Thank you for the inspection."

"Oh, you're welcome, I just don't know about Anyuan Town this time..." On the dark face of Lu Xunjian, there was a worry that didn't match his temperament. The family here has long regarded Anyuan Town as his home after so many years. His wife, children, and brothers are all here.

Now, he actually felt a little hopeless.

If he disregarded everything in front of him, disregarding his humble official position, he would not be unable to get away with a few brothers and his family, after all, there were still two days left.

But what about the people in the town.

As Gu Lin said, if there are more than 1 people in the town and the men, women and children in the surrounding villages who don't know the news, if those refugee troops are allowed to enter, I'm afraid the people in the town and the villagers in the village will usher in a catastrophe .

Not to mention 2000 people, even if dozens of refugee troops entered a village, the villagers were powerless to fight back.

A refugee army that has killed people and seen blood is not something that ordinary people without training can deal with.

It's this time, the county magistrate can't slow down even if he wants to, but he just looks at Gu Lin and inspector Lu very unkindly.

The two pretended not to see them, and when he came out, they hugged him and walked to the lobby. The other two inspectors were always military generals, and they had already appeared there. Lu inspector of the product inspector said hello, but Gu Lin behind him was ignored by the two of them.

As soon as a few people got their buttocks on the chairs, inspector Lu said: "Yesterday I sent people from the tenth small banner to investigate the enemy's situation, and the people from the tenth small banner found that the enemy had already stationed in Majin River, 150 miles away from Anyuan Town. There, instead of the 2000 or so people we knew before, there was another vagrant army that joined in later, adding up to [-] people."

Listening to it again, the county magistrate was even more desperate, with a pale face, covering his head and looking at Gu Lin and Lu Xunjian with hatred.

Zuo inspector Wang inspector also grimaced: "There are more than 2000 people, but we only have 400 people."

"Yes, so we have to discuss now, what should we do next." Lu inspector naturally knew that the number of people in their hands was not enough for the other party, he said, "I have thought about it just now, let alone other First tell the people in the town about the enemy's attack, and send someone to notify the surrounding villages, so that they are prepared, no matter whether they retreat or hide, one can go."

"What about my official!?" The county magistrate sitting at the top suddenly said loudly, "I don't want to die with you."

"Wang Xunjian, Zuo Xunjian, Lu Xunjian and this damn kid just threatened this officer, you two quickly take them down!"

Wang Xunjian and Zuo Xunjian looked at Gu Lin and Lu Xunjian. On the one hand, they were shocked by what Lu Xunjian said about the military situation, and on the other hand they were surprised by the words of the county magistrate. The end of the official order is enough for them to drink a pot.

Seeing that the situation was so tense, the two soldiers brought by inspector Lu took a step forward and stood beside inspector Lu and Gu Lin, their hands already on the hilt of their swords.

Gu Lin stood up from inspector Lu, and cupped his hands at the county magistrate who was seated at the top: "My lord, it is absolutely impossible for the three inspectors and the soldiers under him to face each other head-on. The disparity in strength is so huge that it is like hitting a stone with an egg. "

"But we can divide and annihilate them. As long as we introduce the opponent into a terrain that is beneficial to us, coupled with our familiarity with the local area, we can run away when there are many enemies, and surround them when there are few enemies. Slowly eat away some of their people."

"The most urgent thing now is for the adults to spread the news of the enemy's attack as soon as possible, so that the people in the town can take their families and evacuate to the back of the town, and the surrounding villagers should also prepare as soon as possible."

He was a 14-year-old boy, and he stood up to say these words. Except for Lu Xunjian, the other three did not listen carefully. I run, and the method of surrounding the enemy with fewer enemies is indeed feasible.

The most important thing is that it takes time for the residents of the town to evacuate. It will take at least four or five days for the residents of the town to retreat to the deep mountains, so as not to be chased by the refugee army. on the danger.
