Chapter 24 Disappointment
Ninghe County has a population of over [-], making it a large county.There is a county magistrate, directly under the prefect of Changping County.

Qian Hong, the magistrate of the county, has no military power in his hands. There are only hundreds of yamen servants and fast arresters in the city.

When the news came, he had urgently sent someone to report to Changping County.There are three battalions of soldiers and horses permanently stationed in Changping City, which number several thousand. In addition to the rest of the available manpower in the city, it is possible to make up a small [-].

As long as Zhang Ting, the prefect of Changping, can send troops and join forces with the soldiers and horses of other counties and counties in the northeast, it will be a force that cannot be underestimated.

It is impossible to say that before the reinforcements from Liu Zhang, the state herdsman, can block the possible Hu people to the north of Changping, Ninghe can also escape.

Besides, Changping had to send troops!
The number of Hu people entering the customs is unknown. For Hedong, the best situation is that these Hu people go straight west to Hebei.
But if the counties in the east of the river really do nothing, just sit back and watch the defenders along the way retreat steadily, let the barbarians penetrate into Hebei and cut off the grain road leading to the frontier fortress. Yuzhou is in danger!
It was already difficult for Lulongsai's tens of thousands of frontier troops to resist the [-] Hu people outside the city. Once the food roads were cut off, there was no way out for them to face the enemy.

If the city is broken, the gates of Hebei will be opened wide, and the Hu cavalry will rage down, and the whole Yuzhou will be smashed to pieces and will not be established. Blood will flow into rivers in the east of Hebei, and it will be too late for all regrets.

Even if reinforcements from neighboring states arrived to regain the lost ground, the court's subsequent liquidation would not be able to escape
The dead Yuzhou people will not recover!
Of course, this is something that the state shepherd and the prefects of the counties should worry about. Zhang Ting, who received the news in Changping County, must be in a state of desperation at the moment, and must be busy recruiting manpower.

The gathering in Ninghe County was just to gather the young and strong available in the city, and waited according to the next news from the county, and by the way, just in case.

If the Hu people did not go to Hebei, but went to Hebei to plunder, and the prefect sent troops to lose the enemy, then Ninghe County also needed to have the power to protect itself by defending the city before Liu Zhang, the governor of the state, led his troops from Hexi thousands of miles to help.

Ignored the little situation that just happened.

Seeing that there were all the people, Qian Hong, the county official at the top of the second floor, stood up and took two steps forward.

"Cough cough."

Qian Hong cleared his throat, and then there was no sound in the hall, and everyone's eyes focused on him.

"Everyone." As soon as Qian Hong opened his mouth, it could be heard clearly everywhere in a restaurant in Nuo Da.

All the people discovered that this usually gentle county magistrate actually had a good internal strength
I saw him continue to say with a serious face:

"The barbarians entered the customs. Changdingguan's [-] soldiers and civilians were slaughtered overnight, and very few survived. Everyone must have known about this."

"All of you present here are the mainstays of our Ninghe River, and we gather here at this time of national crisis. You all know the brutality of the barbarians. The blood feud at the border has lasted for hundreds of years, and the people of Yuzhou have suffered greatly from it."

"The prefect has received the news, and will soon send troops to stop it. But, the situation is critical, everyone!"

Having said this, the voice stopped, and he was already grieving.

"Yesterday, I went to Malaysia to report that the number of Hu people is unknown. It has been a long time since they entered the customs, and their whereabouts are unknown. Linhai County, which is the closest to Changding, has not heard any news for many days. Jie, has already sacrificed his life for the country!"

"This is another blood debt of tens of thousands!"

Qian Hong emphasized loudly with red eyes.

Calm down for a moment,
He followed up with another speech, full of righteousness and anger, and finally made another decision.

The decision is simple.
He wants to recruit soldiers!
Qian Hong wants to recruit troops throughout Ninghe County, including the surrounding villages and towns, to form a rebel army. Of course, he has notified Changping County, but he has not yet received a reply.

He said that from now on, recruitment will begin.As the county magistrate, he is willing to take all the responsibilities and lead by example, handing over all the money and food in Qian's mansion to the public, and all the young and strong will be filled into the rebel army.

Although I did not ask all the families present to destroy their families together to relieve the difficulties, I also proposed that everyone should do their best to support them. It is best for those who have money to contribute money, and those who have people to contribute people. Youth is also very good.

After talking.

Qian Hong looked around and waited for a while, but no one made a sound.
After a while, he began to feel a little disappointed
The impassioned speech did not seem to impress many people.

On the second floor, the dozen or so most powerful factions were silent, while the patriarchs of the small clans and representatives of major commercial firms in the entire lobby downstairs were whispering to each other, not daring to show their heads.

They are not without a way out, they can take their families to move to the county town, or even retreat to Henan, and they can avoid the front of the army. The real unlucky ones are just some poor people and the local county magistrate Qian Hong.

Daqian is still strong, and the barbarians are not good at defending the city, so it is impossible to live in the Central Plains for a long time. At most, they will search and loot for a while, and they will definitely retreat.

You just have to endure it for a year and a half, and bring your family back when the time comes, and you will only lose some floating money.

What else does it have to do with them?
Most of the people are so thoughtful, and the rest are willing to help, but they are weak and dare not stand out.The silence in the venue lasted for a long time, and for a while, no one took the lead to speak.

Chen Yi was also very disappointed.

Chilling!
"They're all scumbags, a bunch of mediocre people. I don't see a bloody man!"

Ring pointing to everyone present, he turned his head and sneered at Chen Hua and Wang Chao.

"In the future, when you praise a man's family in Ninghe City, you should say that his man will not let the woman out!"

He listened carefully to the end from the side, and also watched the people who had their own thoughts hesitate.

Sarcasm in anger
He felt worthless for Chen Mu's determination to never turn back when he went out!
There were many people present, but no one was a real man! Hesitant, greedy for life and afraid of death.In contrast, Chen Yi really felt that his old lady was so dazzling.

Wang Chao didn't answer, but he also showed contempt.

Chen Hua persuaded with a wry smile: "Second Young Master, don't be upset, I think it's because the peace in the east of the river has been peaceful for a long time, so there are some."

"Weighing the pros and cons is just human nature."

I'm too lazy to understand everyone's thoughts, and I don't want to waste time watching everyone whispering here.

Chen Yi doesn't care about other people's thoughts, anyway, he can't sit still anymore!
As a person of the world, with confidence in his chest, how can he not be wanton?
The inner air is surging!
The pure Daoge internal force in the body passes through the various acupuncture points and rushes to the right palm, and the purple light emerges, diffuses and fades in the air along the outline of the palm.

The next moment, there was a loud bang in the restaurant. The audience was stunned.

It was Chen Yi, under the violent internal force, he smashed the whole solid wood huanghuali table into powder with one palm!
Then he summoned his internal energy, his whole body was filled with purple energy, he stood up carelessly, and took a few steps forward.

"10 taels of silver, [-] dans of food and grass, all the guards at home guard the courtyard, patrolling inside and outside the city day and night." He raised his head and looked around coldly.

"If there is a war, Ninghe Chen is willing to die with the city!"

After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands to Qian Hong, who was at the top of his head.

Then, in front of everyone, he led Chen Hua and Wang Chao down the stairs without looking back.
