Chapter 3091 Chapter 3093【War】
Some people believed Xiang Nan's warning, but more people didn't believe it.
Because although the common people seem ignorant and superstitious, they burn incense and worship gods and ancestors at every turn.
But in fact, they don't trust gods or ancestors much, but they are more out of pragmatism and self-interest. Like to hear good news, don't like bad news.
If Xiang Nan said that they would have good luck, get rich, get promoted, and live a long life, they would all like to hear it, and believed that it must be true.
But if Xiang Nan says that they will be unlucky, bankrupt, demoted, or short-lived, they don't like it, and they will question what he said.
Xiang Nan said that there will be a war, the city of Xi'an will be besieged, and there will be countless casualties... Most people don't believe it.
At first, the villagers all believed that Xi’an City was a blessed land, and it had never been besieged since the city was founded, so Xiang Nan said that Xi’an City was besieged, as if saying that the sun would come out from the west, it was all nonsense;
Secondly, the people at that time had little knowledge and did not know the power of spears and cannons. In addition, there has been no war in the Guanzhong Plain for two or three hundred years, and the villagers have almost forgotten about the fierce wars and do not have enough safety awareness.
So most people don't believe it.
"The city of Xi'an is so big that it can still be besieged. It's a joke."
"Little fairy, little fairy, after all, he is not a fairy yet, so his words are still unreliable."
"Xi'an is a millennium-old city and the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties. This is a blessed land, so there's no chance anything will happen."
Everyone said one after another.
…
"Hei Wa, is there really going to be a war? Will the city of Xi'an be besieged?" Just as the villagers were questioning Xiang Nan, Bai Jiaxuan found him and asked.
"Really, there is no doubt that there will be a fight in the spring of next year." Xiang Nan nodded.
"Who is fighting with whom?" Bai Jiaxuan asked curiously.
"The Zhensong army from Yuzhou fought against the Jingguo army guarding Xi'an." Xiang Nan explained.
"What are the Zhensong Army and the Jingguo Army? You have soldiers from Yuzhou, how dare you act wild in Guanzhong?" Bai Jiaxuan asked puzzled.
"It's a long story." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "If you talk too much, you won't understand. Anyway, Uncle Jiaxuan, listen to my advice, don't let Bai Ling go to the provincial capital. Otherwise, there will be bad luck. "
Bai Jiaxuan nodded.
"In addition, bring back your cousins in Xi'an City. Urge the villagers to hide all the food and send all the female relatives to the mountains." Xiang Nan said again, "The Zhensong army is all soldiers, bandits, and bandits. , The Red Gun Society is composed of people, and they are ruthless in their work, killing people without blinking an eye."
Bai Jiaxuan nodded again.
Afterwards, according to what Xiang Nan said, he wanted to keep Bai Ling at home, and wanted to bring his relatives in Xi'an back to the original place.
However, Bai Ling's temper was so stubborn that he couldn't listen to it at all. Taking advantage of Bai Jiaxuan's inattention, he ran to the city by himself.
And his cousin in the provincial capital didn't believe Xiang Nan's words, and felt that Xi'an city was a blessed land, and it hadn't fought a war for hundreds of years, let alone been besieged.
So what Xiang Nan said was all nonsense, it was nothing more than a trick to cheat money, so he didn't believe it at all.
Bai Jiaxuan's persuasion was fruitless, and he didn't know what to do.
…
The new year passed in a blink of an eye, and it was February 2026.
In the beginning of spring, Bailucang Primary School officially held its opening ceremony.
A few days in advance, Tian Fuxian publicized on the original website, asking the villagers to go to the school to stand up and cheer that day, welcoming his nephew as the principal of the primary school.
He said to Lu Zilin proudly, "Let me tell you, the principal of this school is not low-level, and is on an equal footing with the chief of the police station and the chief of the food bureau."
Lu Zilin nodded with a smile all over his face, thinking in his heart that if my son was here, what would happen if he had a nephew.
When the day of school started, all the people in the village came to the elementary school to watch the excitement under Tian Fuxian's instigation.
Chinese music and Western music are mixed together, noisy and harsh, it is simply neither Chinese nor Western, neither fish nor fowl, extremely ridiculous.
"Here we come, here we come~" With the cheers of the crowd, a car drove up to the original place, making all the people in the whole plain dumbfounded.
Many people are seeing cars for the first time, and they feel extraordinarily fresh. How can this cart go so fast without oxen and horses?
When Tian Fuxian saw it, he hurriedly ordered people to set off firecrackers, and then greeted him with a smile on his face. However, the county magistrate He got out of the car first, and then another young man got out of the car.
The whole village was taken aback when they saw it.
The person who came was not Tian Fuxian's nephew, but Lu Zhaopeng, Lu Zilin's son.
"Fuxian, let me introduce you, this is the principal of Bailucang Primary School, and also a child of our Bailuyuan~" County Magistrate He said with a smile.
Hearing his introduction, everyone was dumbfounded.
Especially Lu Zilin.
…
After Lu Zhaopeng returned to the original school and became the primary school principal, Lu Zilin regained all the face he had lost.
After all, the primary school principal is a high-ranking official, on an equal footing with the chief of the police station and the chief of the food bureau.
There is no one in Bailuyuan who is a bigger official than him.
Not to mention, when the son comes back, he will stay in the original place to teach and will not leave, so the daughter-in-law will definitely be able to talk.
So he started to help his son arrange marriage again.
And just a few days after the elementary school started, the Zhensong army surrounded the city of Xi'an.
Xiang Nan immediately sent Lu San, Zhang Fenglan, Zhang Ziqing, Tian Xiaoe, Liu Chunni, Song Zhaodi, and Miao Yulan to the villa in Zhongnan Mountain after receiving the news.
"You guys stay here, don't go out and run around." Xiang Nan instructed.
Actually, he is also superfluous. Without him, they would not be able to get out of this formation.
"Sir, is there really a war?" Zhang Ziqing asked worriedly.
Xiang Nan nodded, "Really, but don't worry, you'll be fine with me here."
Several people nodded.
…
Xiang Nan then went to Xi'an City again, and saw that the army had surrounded Xi'an City tightly.
But after he returned to the plain, he didn't say much, he only urged the villagers to hide the grain, because the Zhensong army was about to go to the plain to grab grain.
But there are still not many people who are willing to listen to him.
Once it comes, people are lazy. They don’t sit when they can lie down, and they don’t stand when they can sit. Transferring food is also a laborious job. Before seeing the danger, who is willing to sell this stupid effort;
Secondly, people also have a fixed mindset. The city of Xi'an has not been besieged for hundreds of years, so the villagers do not believe that it will be besieged, and naturally they do not have the sense of crisis.
Xiang Nan persuaded them several times, but he didn't persuade them, so he had to let it go.
Good words are hard to persuade, **** it, great mercy will not save you.
If those people don’t listen to persuasion, what can he do?
On the other side, Lu Zhaopeng also advised the villagers to transfer food and family members.
But his appeal in Yuanshang is not as good as that of Xiang Nan, and even fewer people listen to him.
So he also felt helpless.
And at this time, Zhensong Army really came to the original.
