Rise From the Humble - Chapter 1777

  Chapter 1777 Retrograde

   Soon, the three city gates in the east, south and north of Suzhou City creaked open for the people outside the city to enter the city.

   “Fathers and folks, don’t fight, don’t grab, line up to enter the city, everyone can rest assured, everyone can enter the city.”

  ”In an extraordinary period, whoever dares to fight and rob, refuses to obey orders, and disrupts order, I have reason to suspect that he is a spy of Japanese pirates”

   “After everyone enters the city, follow the instructions in the city to the resettlement area for screening and inspection, so as to prevent Japanese pirates from mixing in.”

  Zhu Pingan loudly set the rules in front of the city gates, and arranged 30 Zhejiang troops in front of each city gate to maintain order and prevent the common people from scrambling to enter the city.

  At this critical moment of life and death, if order is not maintained, the common people will definitely scramble to enter the city, and secondary accidents such as pushing and stampede are prone to occur, leading to serious consequences. There were many such accidents in the previous life.

  So, Zhu Pingan learned from experience and lessons, and set up rules immediately to maintain order.

  The common people lined up to enter the city under the command of the Zhejiang Army which maintained order. Due to the proper command of the Zhejiang Army, the people lined up and entered the city very quickly.

Zhu Pingan led the rest of the Zhejiang Army soldiers, went against the flow of people, and walked three hundred meters in front of the city gate. They set up simple fortifications and stood ready. send.

  When the common people saw that Zhu Pingan really did as he said, not only did he not enter the city, but also led the Zhejiang army to stand in front of the front to guard against Japanese raids and **** them into the city. They were immediately moved and burst into tears.

   “This is the real parent officer.”

   “Father, mother, God open your eyes, we are lucky to meet a good official who really does things for our people.”

   “Thank you, Master Qingtian.”

  Many common people entered the city, and one by one they knelt and kowtowed to the figure walking backwards outside the city.

  Three city gates opened wide, and within half an hour, tens of thousands of people outside the city gates all entered Suzhou City.

   “Master Shang, my lords, all the people have entered the city, please close the city gate as soon as possible, and we will return to the Fengqiao Camp to wait for the Japanese pirates.”

  After the common people entered the city, Zhu Pingan rode his horse to the city gate, cupped his fists and bid farewell to Shang Wei, the prefect of Suzhou, and others on the city.

   “Master Zhu, you Zhejiang army should also withdraw to the city.” Shangzhifu on the top of the city raised his voice.

  At this time, the outside of the city was the front line against the Japanese pirates, isolated and helpless, and it was the most dangerous place, while the protection of the city wall and moat inside the city, there were hundreds of thousands of people in the city, and there were enough food and supplies for several months, so it was much safer.

   All the officials in the city suddenly became nervous. If the Zhejiang army retreated into the city, then Suzhou City would become the front line.

   A group of subordinate officials were about to speak to stop them, but before they could organize their vocabulary, they heard that Zhu Pingan in the city had already refused.

   “Thank you, Mr. Shang, for your kindness. Our Zhejiang army will not enter the city. Our Zhejiang army will play a greater role outside the city. You are inside the city, and we are outside the city. They are like horns, and the Japanese pirates will definitely return without success!”

   “Sir Shang, all my lords, the fathers and elders of Suzhou City, Baixin, let’s say goodbye. After the Japanese pirates are expelled, we will enter the city again and drink the celebration wine. Hahaha, when the time comes, Lord Shang, don’t be reluctant to part with good wine. We will meet later.”

  Zhu Pingan shook his head without hesitation, rejected Shang Zhifu’s kindness, then turned his horse’s head and rode towards Fengqiao camp. All the Zhejiang troops immediately turned their horses to follow, and none of them entered the city.

Seeing all the Zhejiang soldiers riding away, seeing that tall and straight figure disappearing into the distance, Shang Zhifu couldn’t help feeling a lot of emotion, “There are people in my heart, and I have responsibilities on my shoulders. Always remember to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country. This is how my court of Ming Dynasty The magnanimity that an orderly officer should have! Zhu Ping’an, if he is here, my city of Suzhou will be safe!”

  After the prefect Shang finished feeling, he looked back at his subordinates and shook his head, “You are far behind.”

   “I’m ashamed.” All the officials hurriedly lowered their heads.

   “Of course, this official is far behind. I didn’t expect that this official will have a day when I will measure the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.”

  Shang Zhifu shook his head ashamedly.

   “Did you hear what Zihou said just now? Strictly screen and check the people entering the city to prevent Japanese pirates from mixing in.”

   “Everyone, be vigilant and take precautions. If anyone dares to take it lightly, I will kill him!”

  Shang Zhifu gave a loud order after sighing.

   “Obey!”

  A group of officials and soldiers responded, and the entire city of Suzhou immediately entered a state of wartime alert.

  Lumenli Fulu Street, Zhufu, the gate.

  Li Shu, with a big belly, stood at the door, looking around, supported by Baozi’s little maids, Hua’er and Qin’er.

  Several big-armed nursing homes stood guard on the street to prevent the short-sighted Xiaoxiao from bumping into Li Shu.

Suddenly, a figure came running on the street, wearing the clothes of Zhu Manor’s nursing home. The eyes of Li Shu and the others lit up. Before the man came, Hua’er, the little maid of Baozi, hurriedly asked, “How, how, Didn’t you just ask that my uncle called the city gate? Has my uncle entered the city, how long will it be before you come to the house?”

“Miss, Miss Huaer, my uncle asked to open the city gate, not to enter the city, but to send the people fleeing outside the city to enter the city. In order to prevent Japanese pirates from raiding the gate, my uncle led the Zhejiang army to stand 200 meters outside the city gate. After the common people entered the city, my aunt did not stop for a moment, but went back to the Fengqiao camp to defend against the Japanese pirates.” After the nurse came running, he replied out of breath.

   “Huh?! My uncle won’t enter the city?!” The little maid of Baozi was extremely disappointed.

   “I knew that was the case. How could someone as proud as him abandon his responsibilities and hide in the city?” Li Shu smiled wryly and turned around in frustration. Although she knew this was the result, she still couldn’t help feeling disappointed.

“From today onwards, no killing is allowed in the mansion. The chickens, ducks, geese, fish, etc. you bought should all be released. These days, until Brother Zhu beats off the Japanese pirates and comes to the mansion safely, don’t eat meat.” , don’t see meat, I want to be a vegetarian, and everyone should also be a vegetarian, pray for brother Zhu.”

   Li Shu turned around and ordered.

   “Miss, miss, you are more than nine months old, and it is the time when you need nutrition and nourishment. How can you not eat meat?”

   “That’s right, miss, you have to think about the little son. We are all vegetarians to pray for uncle, so you don’t have to, miss.”

  Qin’er, Hua’er and other girls could not help persuading Li Shu when they heard that Li Shu wanted to be a vegetarian.

   “It’s okay, big fish and big meat have been making up for such a long time, and they can’t be wronged for a few days. Besides, their father is out in the rain. If they are big fish and big meat, they will be filial sons.”

   “Help me back, before the Japanese pirates arrive, I will copy more basic Buddhist scriptures and Taoist scriptures, and provide them to the Buddha and Sanqing.”

   Li Shu waved her hand and insisted.
