"You guys are…"
When Lin Qiu walked out of the manor.
He saw many commoners gathered outside.
There were men, women, old and young among them.
Among them, there were many young and strong men.
"Greetings, Young General!"
They all bowed.
Lin Qiu nodded.
"Young General, we all saw the notice posted at the city gate!”
"Yeah, we all saw it!"
"Young General, even if the barbarians come to attack the city, what's there to be afraid of?”
"Yes, we're not afraid. Last time when the barbarians attacked, we even went up the city wall and helped defend it!”
"Yes, yes, yes, I'm going up too!"
"Youzhou City is our home. We won't leave. We're willing to live and die with the young general and Youzhou City!”
"Young General…I'm too old to walk. If you want us to leave now, sigh…you're really forcing us. We're not afraid of the Turks!”
"Yes, Young General, we are not afraid!”
Instantly.
He heard the commoners shouting that they were unwilling to leave.
Even if they died here, they would not leave Youzhou City.
Lin Qiu's eyes were wet.
These commoners were all natives of Youzhou Province.
If they were to leave now…where could they go?
"Young General, we all came from other places. If you hadn't taken us in back then, I'm afraid we would all have starved to death now!”
"Young general, so do we. We're saved by you. Now that Youzhou City is in trouble, how could we leave?”
"Young general, we would like to defend Youzhou City together with the commoners and soldiers!”
Even Huo Qubing and Baiqi.
He didn't seem to have expected it.
At this moment, the commoners of Youzhou City were so united.
They would rather have the thought of certain death.
They would also live and die together with Youzhou City…They would help them defend the city.
For a moment.
Everyone was moved.
Lin Qiu nodded with a smile and said,""I can understand your feelings!”
"Youzhou City is not only your home, but also our home!”
"Who would be willing to leave their hometown if they were not forced to?”
"However, the barbarians are cruel and merciless. As long as Youzhou City is broken, this place will become a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!”
"I can't bear to watch you die under the scimitars of the barbarians!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the commoners all shook their heads.
"Young General, we are not afraid!"
"Yes, we're not afraid!"
"We will die eventually. It's our honor to live or die with Youzhou City!”
"Yes, young general, let us stay. We are not afraid of death!”
The commoners present.
All of them begged.
At this moment, Huo Qubing lowered his voice and said,"Young general, the commoners are so sincere. They have lived in Youzhou City for more than half of their lives!”
"If we let them go now, they might have nowhere to go!”
"Why don't we let them stay?”
"Yes, young master, we can fight the barbarians at the risk of our lives and swear to defend Youzhou City…"
"Young general, Youzhou City will not be finished as long as I, Bai Qi, am here!”
The people around him also tried to persuade Lin Qiu.
Hearing this.
Lin Qiu was silent for a long time.
Then, he looked at the determined commoners in front of him.
Finally, he nodded.
"Good!"
"If you are not afraid of death, stay and help us defend the city!”
"However, I have a condition!"
"The men can stay because you are all sons of the Han family!”
"But the old, weak, women, and children must leave!”
"No matter where you go, no matter how far you go!”
"Youzhou City…none of you are allowed to stay!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Although there were still some commoners who were somewhat unwilling.
However…
They all understood in their hearts.
This was the most Lin Qiu could compromise.
Otherwise, with Lin Qiu's personality, none of them could stay here.
Instantly.
Many of them were bidding farewell to their families.
Looking at the scene in front of him.
Lin Qiu's eyes became more and more moist.
Soon, two drops of tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes.
He turned around and said to Huo Qubing,"Record all the people who are willing to stay. Leave their names and their family situation!”
"If there are any who died in battle, they will be buried with the etiquette of a soldier!”
"In the future, I will engrave everyone's names on the stone steles!”
"Let the future generations remember their contributions forever!”
"Here!"
Huo Qubing quickly nodded.
" Also, they're all commoners after all. After they're registered, bring them to the military camp and train them appropriately. Although they're commoners, we have to let them understand how to use a knife to kill the enemy!”
"Understood, Young General!"
Lin Qiu nodded and said nothing else.
He walked straight back into the manor.
Not long after.
The sky gradually darkened.
However, Youzhou City was not as peaceful as before.
Not everyone was willing to sacrifice themselves to defend Youzhou City.
Most of the commoners also brought their own belongings.
He ran out of the city overnight.
On the city wall.
Lin Qiu and Qin Baichuan stood there and looked at the desert.
"Brat!"
"Why don't…you leave first?”
"As long as I'm in Youzhou City, those barbarians won't break in easily!”
"But you're different…I have to let the old general and the Lin family keep the heir!”
After a long time.
Qin Baichuan said softly.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Lin Qiu remained silent.
Old Qin looked back at him strangely.
"Brat, do you think…"
"Uncle Qin!"
"As my father's old subordinate, you've worked with him for many years!”
"Has he ever regretted coming to Youzhou City?”
"Hmm?"
Lin Qiu asked.
Old Qin did not react in time.
After a long while, he shook his head and said," The old general once said that Youzhou City is facing the north of the desert. Barbarians often come to make trouble and kill the people of the Tang Empire. As a general of the Tang Empire, reputation and money are not important!”
"If we can ensure the safety of one side, what is there to regret?”
Lin Qiu smiled.
"That's right!"
"This is my father's personality!"
"He would never regret coming to Youzhou City!”
"As his son, a daughter of the Lin family, how can I be a coward?”
"If I really ran away alone because I was afraid of death and ignored the people of Youzhou…I think even if my father is in heaven, he won't be able to rest in peace!”
"Brat…"
These words moved Old Qin.
He turned around and looked at Lin Qiu, who was standing beside him.
At this moment.
Only then did he deeply feel that the Lin Qiu who used to eat, drink, and play had long disappeared.
The current him…was worthy of the title of Young General.
I'm not extravagant or monthly votes. I just want a few free flowers and evaluation tickets. I beg for your support. Thank you!!!
