Chapter 374 Enemy Situation
Although Wang Jinyi was anxious to gather information and deal with the crisis of the Northern Barbarians, she could only be patient when she saw her cousin like this. She frowned slightly, secretly thinking about the intention of her cousin's action, but on the surface she still wore a decent smile:
"Why is cousin so concerned about brother all of a sudden? But what happened to brother recently?"
Wang Yuwen's eyes flickered, she lowered her head slightly, a blush appeared on her face, and she said softly:
"Cousin, to be honest with you, I... I have always had a crush on cousin Wendong. It's just that I didn't have the chance to say it before, but now... now I want to ask you, cousin, does cousin... does he have someone he likes?"
Wang Jinyi was shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect that her cousin came here for this matter.
Looking at my cousin's shy and expectant look, I felt helpless, but it was not easy to refuse directly.
After all, it was her brother's lifelong affair, and she couldn't make the decision on her own.
"Cousin, I don't know what my brother is thinking. He usually devotes all his attention to his studies and family affairs. I have never heard him mention love affairs."
Wang Yuwen's eyes flashed with joy, as if she saw hope: "That's good. Cousin, I heard that my cousin's talent and character are extremely outstanding. I wonder...
I hope my cousin can say a few good words for me in front of my cousin."
Wang Jinyi secretly groaned in her heart, she had no time to get involved in this matter, but it was not easy for her to directly reject her cousin's request.
As I was hesitating, I suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from outside, and then Wu Mei ran in hurriedly:
"Miss, something terrible has happened! We just received news that the vanguard of the Northern Barbarians is less than thirty miles away from Beining Prefecture!"
Wang Jinyi didn't care that her cousin was still there, and stood up suddenly: "What? How could it be so fast!?"
Wang Jinyi didn't care that her cousin was still there, and asked excitedly: "What? How could it be so fast!?"
Wang Yuwen was shocked by the sudden news. The blush on her face faded instantly, replaced by a pale face.
Wang Jinyi had no time to comfort her cousin, her brain was working rapidly.
"Sister Wu, call all the cousins and their wives to the flower hall. We need to gather some information."
There was only calmness in Wang Jinyi's voice.
Wu Mei took the order and left.
Wang Jinyi looked at Wang Yuwen again and said apologetically:
"Cousin, the situation is critical right now. I have no time to take care of other things as the northern barbarians are attacking the city. Please forgive me, cousin."
Wang Yuwen suppressed her panic and nodded.
"Cousin, please go and do your work. I...I will go back by myself."
Wang Jinyi didn't have time to say anything more and hurriedly said goodbye to her cousin. She rushed back to the flower hall and saw everyone rushing in. She was silent.
"A team of servants who went to the countryside to collect grain discovered that the northern barbarian troops were less than thirty miles away from us. We don't have much time left. I have to do a few things!"
"Sister Wu Qiyue, take the people who came to report the news and report directly to General Fu! If something happens, respond flexibly. Bring a few Mr. Wu with you in case of an emergency. Set off immediately!"
"Yes!" the two answered in unison and quickly went out.
Wang Jinyi stood up and paced. There was a gentle knock on the door of the flower hall. The servant reported: "Miss, the master of the house sent someone to tell you something important."
"Please come in."
The person who came was the steward of the Wang family in Beining. After seeing Wang Jinyi, he hurriedly said:
"Second Miss Xunyang, the head of the family asked me to inform you that General Fu has already determined the gathering location of the northern barbarians. The city defense is under the command of Deputy General Zhou Qing. This is the contact token. You can directly meet with Commander Zhou."
Wang Jinyi frowned slightly. Wu Mei and Qi Yue, who had just been sent out, did not have tokens! I was afraid they would not be able to see the commander!
What should I do? Turning back, she saw Yuqing standing motionless beside her. She solemnly handed the jade token to Yuqing.
Yuqing shook her head firmly, "Miss, you have no one around you, I can't leave you, this is the mission given to me by the clan."
Wang Jinyi bit her lip unwillingly, knowing that time was running out and she could not hesitate. She looked at the contact token in her hand again, then at Yuqing, and quickly calculated in her mind.
"Master Yuqing, the situation is urgent now. Wu Mei and Qi Yue don't have the token and cannot see Commander Zhou. Military intelligence is the most important thing!
Besides, if the city is breached, how can you protect my safety with your own strength? Go and come back quickly! "
The young lady at this time was thin and small, but her tone was firm and her eyes revealed unquestionable majesty.
Yuqing knew that the military intelligence was important and it was useless to argue with the young lady. She knelt on one knee and took the token.
"Miss, I will live up to your trust! Please be careful and don't try to take anything that happens before we come back. Protect yourself. I'll be back soon!"
After saying this, he took the token, stood up and ran out of the hall.
Wang Jinyi looked at Yuqing's back, feeling a vague sense of uncertainty and uneasiness in her heart.
The several times he was in danger, it was just a coincidence that no one was around him. This time, almost all the guards were out on business, leaving him alone.
Thinking of this, Wang Jinyi subconsciously pressed the crossbow on his left arm. At critical moments, he is often the most reliable and useful person!
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the uneasiness in her heart, Mrs. Zong moved closer to her. Wang Jinyi looked back with a smile, and Mrs. Zong gave her a calm look, which instantly calmed her restless heart.
Those who were supposed to go out to deliver messages and tokens in the flower hall had all left. The four cousins looked at the man who had just made a quick decision and suddenly fell silent.
"Cousin,...?"
Wang Wenbin asked tentatively: "Are you okay?"
Wang Jinyi sat down, took a sip of tea, and sank into thought. If I were the commander-in-chief this time, I would venture into the Daqi territory and try to launch a surprise attack on Beining City.
Well, then...
If you want to launch a surprise attack, you have to do it before anyone knows about it. When the fight starts, you have to quickly take over Bac Ninh City!
The problem is fast! Yes!
If the enemy is coming quickly, the army they are bringing must be quite large. So the enemy knocking on Beiyu Pass must be making a false move to lure the enemy just to tie us down.
Now that we have figured out the enemy's plan, we can defeat them by using their own strategy against them!
The message must be sent out first, this person must... Before Wang Jinyi could draw a conclusion, the door of the flower hall opened, and Sister Feng and Sister Feng strode in with great force.
"If you have something to say, sit down and talk!"
The two of them were not polite. Sister Feng sat down and said, "Miss, the news that the northern barbarians are knocking on the gate has been sent out by someone. I guarantee that it will be delivered. Don't worry about that!"
"Now listen to me quietly. The northern barbarians are blocking the pass and risking their lives to attack Beining City. In fact, they want to feint at Beiyukou and tie down most of the troops guarding the pass..."
"Cousin, the four of you, take Sister Feng and Sister Feng together to go find the head of the family and ask him to send Sister Feng and Sister Feng to deliver a letter to General Fu at Beiyukou, so as to avoid being pinned down by the enemy and being kept in the dark..."
"Miss, we can't leave. There's no one around you. What will you do if we leave? ..."
"You can save millions of people if you go. If you don't go, you may only be able to save me, or even me! After all, there are organized Northern Barbarian soldiers outside the city!"
