Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

"dare!!"

The team leader shouted angrily.

"I will stand at the front when we enter the camp."

"I will never take a step back unless I die!!"

Wen Chengjie smiled and punched the team leader, then took the knocked dagger from the hand of someone next to him.

"I believe you."

"Remember, before you die, no more weapons will be used against our own people."

"Go collect the reward first, send the money back to your wife and children, and then report to the broken army camp!"

The captain took the order and left, and Wen Chengjie turned to look at the soldiers behind him.

"Pass on my military order, gather the people outside the city gates and seal off the city!"

Done! !

When Lu You heard the word "city lockdown", he was suddenly shocked.

Wei Anping of Qingning County decided to rebel, so Pingchang County lost its retreat and became an isolated city.

The Jin soldiers came from the west, attacking cities and strongholds along the way, and snatching the ripe rice that had not yet been harvested. In order to support the war by fighting, the thing they lacked the least was food.

Unless the Qingzhou army in Pingchang County can discover the abnormality in Qingning County in the rear in time and reluctantly allocate part of its troops to remove this nail.

Otherwise, once they are fully entangled by the Jin soldiers and the war turns into a war of attrition, they will surely die!

Hu Laojiu said that a siege is a game of attrition and it would take at least seven days to see results.

But in the current situation, I’m afraid it won’t be useful for three days!

The most important thing is that Wen Chengjie has ordered the city to be sealed off, so even if Uncle San and Aunt San rush over, they can’t get in!

But Lu You had no reason to stop Wen Chengjie's order.

The Jin soldiers were outside, and the city was sealed off to protect the safety of tens of thousands of people in the city.

Even if she had Guan Shanyue as her backer, even if she had a jade pendant with a dragon pattern in her hand, there was no way she could open this door.

Seeing Lu You's frown, Wen Chengjie spoke lightly.

"Don't worry, I won't stop the people from coming outside."

"Closing the city gates is just to prevent the Jin soldiers from attacking."

"Tomorrow morning, I will temporarily open the city gates and let in the people who have gathered here."

Lu You felt relieved after hearing this, but then looked at Wen Chengjie in confusion.

"You know what I'm worried about?"

"I know." Wen Chengjie nodded and said, "While you were having dinner last night, I accompanied my father to meet Mr. Guan."

"When I heard from Mr. Guan that you were a warrior, I sent people to keep an eye on you."

"After all, I am worried about letting a warrior live in my Wen family."

"I'm not afraid to tell you that from the moment you entered the Wen Mansion, no matter how many times you drank tea or how many bowls of rice you ate, it was all under my control."

"So I know why you're here with your flag, and I know why you're selling drugs."

"So far, the only thing I don't understand is your ability to make something out of nothing."

"The knife, the chair, and this black panther. I'm really curious about how you made them."

The two looked at each other, and Lu You stared at Wen Chengjie's eyes.

But no matter how you look at it, there is not a trace of filthiness or sinisterness in Wen Chengjie's eyes, only calm honesty.

"People like you shouldn't have such clean eyes. What a pity."

"My eyes are clear because I am upright." Wen Chengjie said calmly.

"Is an upright person going to do such a thing as spying on others?" Lu You asked with a sneer.

"It's important to be on guard against others. I didn't pry into your privacy. I was just trying to prevent you from causing trouble."

"Then why are you bringing it up now?"

"I have something to ask you." Wen Chengjie said simply.

Hearing Wen Chengjie's words, Lu You even felt a little absurd.

Wen Chengjie was talking about monitoring himself one second ago, and the next second he was asking himself to do something.

It's fair and aboveboard, but is this something a normal person can do?

"Do you think I will help you?"

"meeting."

"Why?"

Hearing Lu You's question, Wen Chengjie reached out and took out a blue-black token.

"I'll pass on the instructions. With this token, you can open the city gate as long as there is no danger of the city being breached."

"In this case, as long as your uncle and aunt can get to the city before the Jin soldiers attack the city, you can open the gate and let them in at any time."

As soon as Wen Chengjie finished speaking, Lu Yi next to him suddenly spoke.

"We don't want this token!"

Lu Yi walked up to the two of them and looked at Wen Chengjie with a sinister look.

"This token can open the city gate when there is no danger of the city gate being breached."

"How do you determine whether there is danger? Isn't it you who have the final say?"

"If the Jin soldiers don't come, and there are enough refugees outside the gate, you will open the gate and let them in."

"The Jin soldiers are coming. Not to mention your token, even the dragon-patterned jade pendant in my second sister's hand may not be useful."

"I'm right, Master Wen."

Wen Chengjie looked at Lu Yi, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.

"Lu Yi, right? You are really smart. There is a list of students in the city. Fourteen-year-old students are rare."

"It's useless to say this." Lu Yi said coldly: "When you heard last night that my second sister was a warrior, you sent people to monitor us."

"Saying that it's for the safety of the Wen family is just an excuse."

"My guess is that you probably started preparing for a rainy day when you heard Mr. Guan's story about the assassination."

"Wen Chengbo said before that in order to prevent the Jin warriors from causing chaos in the city, the Wen family has sent warriors in the city to guard the four gates."

"But when I left the Wen family, I passed by the gatehouse and saw two people riding back on horses. They looked anxious when they entered the Wen family."

“Although I couldn’t hear what they said specifically, I heard a few words about Cang Yun Sect.”

"Considering your current attitude, the only thing you can ask my second sister to help you with is to defend the city!"

Lu Yi analyzed each point calmly, only to hear the people around him widen their eyes.

"Xiaoyi, I don't quite understand." Lu You said puzzledly, holding his forehead with his hand.

Lu Yi turned and looked at Lu You.

"Second sister, Qingning County has rebelled and cut off the food supplies of the Qingzhou garrison in Pingchang County. The Jin soldiers may attack us at any time."

"The army closest to Qingzhou City is the garrison in Yanzhou to the east. However, because their intelligence was robbed before, they have a vague understanding of the war and it is difficult for them to arrive before the Jin soldiers reach the city."

"So once the Jin soldiers come, Qingzhou Prefecture has no choice but to close the gates and defend the city."

"By then, there will be tens of thousands of Jin soldiers, but the defenders in this city will only be three or four thousand at most."

"The Jin soldiers will definitely take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture the city in one fell swoop. Once the war begins, they will attack from both inside and outside."

"It is foreseeable that there must be Jin soldiers hiding in this city."

"Lord Wen should have thought of this, so he sent someone to Cang Yunmen to ask for help last night."

"But judging from the expressions on the faces of the two people who returned home, I'm afraid that their invitation was unsuccessful."

"This Master Wen gave you a useless broken token in exchange for helping you defend the city, kill the Jin warriors in the city, and protect the safety of the city gate."

"He is using a promise to let your uncle and aunt go to the city in exchange for your life!"
