The rise of the poor

Chapter 1115
"Now I finally understand why the county official said 'not more than 30 brothers, but more than 3 brothers'"

The yamen servants on the city wall opened their mouths wide, and watched in shock as the people below the city continued to rush up the city wall, more and more, shoulder to shoulder, looking around, the people scrambling to line up on the city wall looked like a long dragon, winding up, the front You can't see the dragon's head, and you can't see the dragon's tail behind.

"Our county lord can hold thousands of troops with just one mouth. As long as the county lord is there, everything is possible." The soldier next to the yamen guard looked at Zhu Ping'an's back and said with reverence. Seeing so many people rushing up The city wall defended the city together, the despair in his heart was swept away, and his face was full of hope.

Just like the soldiers, the yamen servants and soldiers on the city wall saw this scene, and hope for the defenders grew in their hearts again.

The desperate atmosphere that shrouded Jingnan County like a thick fog dissipated as if blown by a gust of wind.

Breaking!

The crisis of mortal danger has ushered in a turning point.This mobilization by Zhu Pingan can definitely be recorded in the annals of history.

"Fathers and folks, at the time of Jingnan's life and death, you stepped forward. You are all heroes, the pride of Jingnan, and the patron saint of Jingnan. I, Zhu Pingan, thank you all folks and folks here."

On the city wall, Zhu Pingan looked at the crowds rushing up the city wall, the corners of his eyes couldn't help getting wet, and he cupped his hands and bowed to them.

"The county respect is serious. We should thank the county respect. When the county respect first came to Jingnan, he would spare his life to protect Jingnan. We native Jingnan people have no reason not to protect Jingnan."

"Master Zhixian, don't say that, we are ashamed, we should not have heard of the praise of the magistrate. If the magistrate hadn't awakened the dreamer with his words, we would have become cowards who were killed by Japanese pirates and despised."

"Master Zhixian, you are the patron saint of Jingnan."

"Master Zhixian, we are not cowards, we will fight the pirates to the end and protect our parents, wives and children."

"Jingnan is also our Jingnan. We were born in Jingnan and grew up in Jingnan. If Jingnan is in trouble, of course we have to stand up."

People spoke one after another, not daring to be worshiped by Zhu Ping'an.

"It's all Ping An's incompetence, which caused all the fathers and folks to take the risk of defending the city. Ping An apologizes to all the fathers and folks here."

Zhu Pingan bowed his hand again. As the parent official of Jingnan, he was unable to protect Jingnan. He was forced to mobilize the people to defend the city and let the people face the cruel and inhuman Japanese pirates. Zhu Pingan was full of guilt.

"What is the crime of the county magistrate? If the magistrate hadn't insisted, we would have been killed by Japanese pirates outside the west gate. Also, the magistrate, you spared your life to protect Jingnan, we all saw it."

"The Japanese pirates attacking the city has nothing to do with the magistrate. If the magistrate hadn't been guarding the city wall, Jingnan would have been captured by the Japanese pirates long ago."

"The magistrate is our benefactor, not a sinner."

"It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. We don't have a guard post in Jingnan, so we don't have any defense force. More than 3000 Japanese pirates attack the city. It's normal that we can't defend it. It's not normal if we keep it. The county lord is new. What's the matter? The crime of incompetence. Besides, it is already a miracle that the county magistrate organized government servants and guards to defend the city, and kept more than 3000 Japanese pirates from attacking the city. Not only is the magistrate not guilty, but he has done a great job.”

"The county's respect is serious. If we don't defend the city, we will die if Japanese pirates attack the county. If we defend the city, we can still fight for our parents, wife and children. If the county respect doesn't wake us up, we can only wait to die."

People said emotionally, what Jingnan is like, they know it all too well, there is no defense force at all, if the Japanese pirates only come with a hundred or so people, and they can't defend the city, it can be said that the magistrate is incompetent, but the Japanese pirates all of a sudden More than 3000 people came, so if they can hold on, what Zhu Pingan has done is good enough. It is impossible for anyone to do better than Zhu Pingan.Last year, the Japanese pirates only came with a hundred and ten people and broke the county.

"Thank you, folks, folks, folks, folks, trust me, Zhu Pingan, and I, Zhu Pingan, will live up to the trust of my folks."

Zhu Pingan bowed again.

Everyone returned the gift one after another.

"Fathers and folks, your determination and courage to guard Jingnan are obvious to all, but swords have no eyes on the battlefield. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, now invite those who are over [-] years old to go down the city wall; there are old people and young people below , go down the city wall; the only child in the family, go down the city wall; the family has a wife but no heirs, go down the city wall; if father and son are on the city wall, the father goes down the city wall; if brothers are on the city wall, the younger brother goes down the city wall.”

Standing in front of everyone, Zhu Ping'an said loudly, cupping his hands.

"Master magistrate, old man, I have lived for seventy years, enough money, let the young go on. Don't look at me as old, but I have a whole body of kung fu, ordinary young and young, two or three are no match for the old man."

"Master Zhixian, as the saying goes, brothers who fight tigers, father and son soldiers in battle, the three of us father and brother are powerful on the city wall."

"Master Zhixian, if we don't go down, we will defend Jingnan to the death, and we will fight the Japanese pirates to the end."

"People as precious as the magistrate are fighting to the death on the city wall, we will not go down the city wall..."

All the people on the city wall said excitedly that no one could hold on to the city wall and swore to protect Jingnan to the death.

In order to express his persistence, the 70-year-old man blew his beard and stared, holding on to the city wall and not letting go.

"Uncle, uncle, fellow folks, we all have seen your determination and courage to guard Jingnan, but swords have no eyes on the battlefield, and Japanese pirates are cruel and inhumane, which will only increase casualties; and the city wall is narrow. With so many of us, it’s not easy to use it. It’s just a chance for the Japanese pirates to take advantage of it. In addition, you folks can also help defend the city under the city. You folks can maintain order in the county, help collect and move wood and stones, and collect feces and urine... ..."

Zhu Pingan had to persuade again and again, and finally persuaded those who were over [-] years old, the old and the young, and others to get off the city wall.

After such screening, there were more than [-] strong and strong people left on the city wall. Although the number was not as large as the Japanese pirates, it was enough to defend the city.

"I, Zhu Pingan, have nothing to repay you for taking the risk to defend the city, but treat each other with sincerity. Everyone is registered and registered, and treated the same as government servants and soldiers. All those who dare to defend the city will be rewarded with ten taels of silver; Those who were wounded in the city will be rewarded with an additional 50 taels of silver; those who were killed because of defending the city will receive an additional [-] taels of compensation per person. After this battle, those who are willing to work in the county government will be given priority."

Zhu Pingan recruited literate yamen servants and ordinary people to register and make books for all the people, and treated them equally with yamen servants and soldiers. are given priority.

The order of heavy rewards solves the worries of the people; the order of appointment gives everyone a chance to eat the emperor's food.

Originally, the people defended the city only with passion, but now with the order of reward and appointment, the people have no worries and more hope. They are more active in defending the city, full of energy, and high in fighting spirit.
