When Luo Shi carried Mu Yan to the border city gate, there was indeed a group of refugees outside the city gate clamoring to enter the city.
But he was stopped outside the city gate by General Mu.
Because now is the critical moment in the war with the Northern Liang Kingdom.
I am even more worried that there are spies from Beiliang Kingdom mixed in.
The eldest prince also lives at the border, so we must not take it lightly.
If these spies were allowed to blend in with the refugees and sneak into the border city, the eldest prince would be in danger.
【Oh wow~ this plot is finally here! 】
"If you don't open the city gate, we will force our way in! We are also citizens of Yan Country, why are you keeping us out of the country?"
The refugees insisted on entering the city.
"In the past, when refugees fled, the Yan Kingdom's generals would allow them to enter the city for refuge. Why can't we enter the city this year?"
These refugees did look pale and skinny, but the General's Mansion had ordered that no one could leave but could not enter.
So no one leaves the city unless necessary.
[Dad, don't be softhearted. They are fighting a psychological war! There are spies among the refugees.]
When General Mu heard his daughter's voice, he felt at peace.
He really couldn't make up his mind just now.
Then I remembered what my daughter said.
If you encounter refugees entering the city, be sure to ask her for instructions.
So, he quickly asked Lieutenant General Li to go back and invite his wife and Yan'er.
Daughter, tell me, what should Dad do?
"We must let these refugees in, but there are spies among them, so we must not take it lightly," said General Mu.
Only by winning the hearts of the people can you win the world.
If the refugees who truly need asylum are really refused entry into the country, how will the people of the world feel towards the emperor when they find out?
"General, please let us in! They say you are the patron saint of Yan Country, you can't not let us in!"
"Yes, General, please let us in!"
The refugees at the city gate were all shouting for the gate to be opened so they could come in.
The general looked calm and spoke in a loud voice: "I didn't say that you are not allowed to enter the city, but this is an important border area. This camp protects the safety of the people on the border. We can't act rashly."
The old refugee asked, "So, the lives of the people over there are lives, but our lives are not lives?"
The refugees cheered, “Yes, yes!”
"Let us in!"
“Aren’t our lives lives?”
"Why don't you let us in?"
While the refugees were trying to break into the city gate, the spies who had mixed in with them took advantage of the chaos to prepare for battle.
Because their mission this time is to assassinate the general and the eldest prince of Yan State!
However, judging from the current situation, the spies dare not act rashly.
When the refugees saw that the general refused to order the city gates to be opened, they started rioting again.
Force the general to let them into the city.
“My husband, if we don’t let these refugees into the city, we might lose the support of the military camps and the people at the border,” Luo said.
General Mu glanced at Luo Clan and then said, "I know, but what if there are spies from the Northern Liang Kingdom among them? How can I be responsible for the people at the border and the garrison here?"
【Dad, I have a solution.】
General Mu pricked up his ears.
Speak quickly, daughter. Dad is listening!
[You can use the local dialect of these refugees to tell them why they are not allowed to enter the city, and ask them to squat after hearing the order. The spies who don't understand the dialect can't react, and Dad can immediately order the archers to shoot the spies! ]
Upon hearing this, General Mu was enlightened!
This is a good idea!
How could he not think of that!
"If only there was someone who understood the dialect of these refugees from Xiushan..." General Mu muttered.
These soldiers who fought in the war were gathered from all over the world to guard the border.
"Refugees from Xiushan?"
Luo originally wanted to tell the general about Yan'er's hunger.
But when she heard that General Mu suddenly thought of the same plan as her daughter, Luo couldn't help but admire General Mu even more.
He is indeed a wise and brave general who protects the country!
Her husband is really amazing!
"Yes, they are Xiushan refugees." General Mu said, "It would be great if someone could speak the Xiushan dialect and tell them about our current predicament."
"Husband, I can speak the Xiushan dialect. I once opened a clinic in Xiushan with my father." Luo said.
Hearing this, General Mu looked at Luo excitedly, "Wan Niang, are you serious?"
"Yes." Luo nodded seriously.
"There is no time to lose. You should quickly communicate with these Xiushan refugees." General Mu told Luo Shi exactly what Yan'er had said.
Luo: ??? How come you said exactly the same thing as Yan'er?
Luo Shi no longer cared about his curiosity.
Holding Yan'er, he stood in front and spoke in Xiushan dialect, "People of Xiushan, we know you want to seek refuge in the city, but there are spies from Beiliang among you who want to use you to sneak into our military defense zone."
When the people heard that there were spies from Beiliang among them, they became frightened.
However, those spies from Beiliang Kingdom could not understand the Xiushan dialect and looked at each other in confusion, but tried hard to control their nervousness so as not to be exposed.
"Don't be afraid. The Beiliang spies don't understand Xiushan dialect. Now, I will count to one, two, three. When I count to three, the people of Xiushan of Yan will lie down."
Luo said, "Those who didn't lie down are spies from Beiliang."
General Mu on the side said to Lieutenant General Li, "Pass on my order. Without Wanniang's order, you are not allowed to shoot arrows without authorization, lest the Northern Liang Kingdom's spies discover the flaws!"
"Once the people are crouching down, shoot the standing spies to death!"
Luo Shi: "One...two...three..."
When Luo said the number three, the Beiliang spy, who could not understand the Xiushan dialect, thought that the city gate was going to be opened, so he prepared to rush in.
As soon as these three words came out, the villagers of Xiushan immediately fell to the ground with their heads in their hands!
Lieutenant General Li saw that the people had all fallen down, and immediately issued an order:
"Shoot!
"
The archers were ready, and as soon as they heard the order, they immediately shot arrows at the spies.
The spies standing in the front were hit by several arrows, each of which was poisoned.
If you are hit by an arrow, you will die!
When the Xiushan refugees saw this, they were so frightened that their legs went limp.
As soon as the city gate opened, they fled into the city in panic.
Lieutenant General Li led people to search the spies' bodies, and indeed found things from the Northern Liang Kingdom on them.
General Mu had already believed in his daughter's predictive ability to the extreme.
But I didn't expect it.
My daughter is really good at predicting things!
His daughter is not only good at predicting things.
Can also offer suggestions!
What a good military advisor!
His daughter must be the youngest military advisor in history!
"Daddy's Yan'er! Daddy misses you so much!"
After General Mu was relieved of a major worry, he took Mu Yan from Luo's arms and kissed her tenderly.
Mu Yan's delicate skin was pricked by General Mu's stubble, making her giggle.
[My father and mother really work together perfectly! They are truly a match made in heaven! As the old saying goes, a husband and wife of one mind can cut through metal!]
[Together they eliminated the enemy's spies. What kind of tacit understanding is this between a couple from heaven? ]
General Mu: Ahem, isn't it because I have a little military advisor like you here? And my wife is very knowledgeable?
Luo: Your father is still the best.
Luo suddenly frowned and looked at General Mu, "Husband, I have been hiding something from you..."
