Gu Xunming was anxious. Just six hundred taels of silver were enough for anything, although the more than five hundred burdens of food were enough for the soldiers guarding the city to eat for a few days.

But Gu Xunming hopes that these 500 dans of food will not be enough for a few days!

According to Yang Liyu's estimate, there were at least 50,000 or 60,000 rebels outside the city, and there were only 3,000 soldiers in the city, which was a twenty-fold gap. If these rebels were not all mobs composed of the people, the city would have been defeated.

The more he thought of this, the more angry he became, Gu Xunming slapped the table suddenly, shaking the teacup on the table and scattered the tea on the ground.

"What do you want to do? Is this time for you to detain! The rebels outside the door are all under their noses. Are you still using this little thing to fool me!" Gu Xunming was already a little hysterical at this time, and he didn't care about his usual unfathomable image as a prefecture. He was almost gone, and he was still in the mood to persuade him kindly.

Sure enough, the gentry was suddenly slapped by the prefect. We were all bleeding. You still want to empty us. Don’t think that you are a prefect and we are afraid of you. Isn’t it just an official? We are not without us at home!

"Mr. Gu! What do you mean? I donated money and food. Why? You have to watch our He family not even have to eat braised vegetables!" The old man of the He family's eyes became very sharp.

"Old Master He, it's not that I want you to pay money, but the situation is really at the point where you have to. There are already 50,000 or 60,000 rebels outside. Do you know how many soldiers from the Ming Dynasty are on the city wall? Less than 3,000 people! Three thousand people have to resist 50,000 or 60,000 people! Commander Yang said that if he doesn't give him troops and food, he will not be able to defend it for at most two days!"

Gu Xunming had no choice but to tell the actual situation. He didn't want to say it before. He was afraid that the people in the city would be in chaos when they were heard, but now he had to say it, otherwise these gentry would not know how critical the situation was.

Sure enough, these gentry were in an uproar after saying this. They knew the situation was critical, but they did not expect that the situation had reached this critical point.

However, Gu Xunming was still wrong. He thought that if he said the situation was critical, these people would find ways to help him, but he was really anxious and confused. These people said that they were good at not being able to pull them away, and they would be generous if they didn't get them all back to their homes when they saw them.

No matter how dangerous the situation is, if you want them to bleed heavily, it is really a widow who dies and his son has no hope.

"Bang!" Old Master He also slapped the table and pointed at Gu Xunming's nose and said.

"Mr. Gu, how do you become this parent? It is your duty to keep the city. I don't want your position anymore. If you really don't want it anymore, I will immediately send a letter to my grandson who is the censor in the capital, and let him just write to your Majesty for your official!"

Grandpa He stared at his eyes, his aura was not weak at all. He had a support and was not afraid of Gu Xunming as a small prefect. In his heart, his grandson was an official of the Beijing Office and an official of the Censorate. With just one memorial, Gu Xunming could be eliminated.

"Sir Gu, why? Do you think my son-in-law can't control you anymore? How do you do it? The rebels are in front of you. You are still asking us for money here. What about your money? As the prefect, where have you been greedy for the past few years?" Lu Butcher did not think that he could not say anything, so he dared to say anything outside.

"You, you!" Gu Xunming remembered pointing at the road butcher couldn't speak.

Yes, I have a good sister who hooked up with the governor, but this is not your reason to be presumptuous!

"Everyone!" Gu Xunming had no time to talk nonsense with these people here. The most important thing he is to get the guards of these people.

"Gu can raise some food. Now Gu asks you to hand over your guards and commander Yang to go up the city wall to defend the city!" Gu Xunming bowed with a firm face. Now he can only hope that these people are willing to take out their guards. This is the most important thing.

But what he got was a group of rolling eyes and wanted the guards they worked hard to raise? This was more painful than digging their hearts and livers. What about the guards? The guards were to protect their own capital. Now the city is in chaos, and there were mud legs with bad intentions everywhere. If it weren't for the guards at home, those mud legs would have rushed into the house and snatched all the food.

So it is harder to protect the hospital than to ask for money and food.

No door! No! No window!

"Hmph! Lord Gu, you are so kind to do it!" All the words were said, what was the point here? So Old Master He stood up first and left a sentence, swayed his clothes and left.

Then there was the butcher of the road. He had his own ceremonial guard, so he was not afraid of Gu Xunming at all, so he got up and left.

In the last few dozen gentry left only a dozen people who were not very powerful and dared not offend the prefect. They also had no choice but to express their willingness to contribute some food and servants to protect the hospital.

Helpless Gu Xunming could only hand over the five hundred people he had finally gotten to Yang Liyu.

"Rubber!" A sharp knife flashed by, and the bench in front of Yang Liyu was split in half.

"A group of short-sighted guys!" Yang Liyu was so angry that his teeth itched.

How do you ask him to resist the rebels with 3,500 people!

Now he wanted to take people directly to the gentry and force them to hand over the guards, but Gu Xunming grabbed him. He asked just one question and made Yang Liyu shut up, that is, you can tie them up, what should you do if they counterattack after the war?

There was no way Yang Liyu could only swallow his anger, but he was already extremely dissatisfied. It was time for this dangerous moment and they still dared to fight in the middle!

Really, he didn't know what he was trying to protect them! It would be better to take the soldiers and let the rebels arrest all the gentry and roast them and eat them.

But they couldn't imagine that these squire's actions were more than these.

There were long queues outside the grain shop in the city, and those people were looking forward to buying grain.

"Open the door! Today's food price is 500 cents of silver!"

As soon as the price was released, the people outside suddenly became in chaos. A few days ago, a few days ago, but it was still 100 yuan per bull, but today it increased by five times. This price is to starve all the people to death!

Snatch theirs! People can only take risks if they have no food. After all, no one wants to be starved to death.

So at this time the use of the nursing home emerged.
