Chapter 136: It's over. The enemy has entered the city. Wang Tianxiao pushed away Gu Chan's hand that was holding his arm, and quickly looked at Wang Feihu and the others and said, "Dad, County Magistrate Ding, I didn't say two hundred thousand taels, I..." "Okay, you don't have to say any more." Wang Feihu waved his hand to interrupt him. Staring at Gu Chan, Wang Feihu shouted coldly, "Manager Gu, you are so cruel! We think 100,000 taels is too much, and you want 200,000 taels? Are you planning to kill both of us?" "Ma Zheng, bring the things to me." Gu Chan waved her hand and shouted into the hall without turning her head. Ma Zheng immediately ran into the inner room, came out with two yellow admission documents and handed them to Gu Chan. Gu Chan raised two recommendation documents and said, "It's up to you whether to give it to me or not. The two recommendation documents are right here. Whoever's name is filled in on them can report to the Ministry of War in Kyoto right away." "You..." Wang Feihu was speechless. Wang Tianxiao stared at the two admission documents in Gu Chan's hands with his eyes wide open. Without a doubt, this was the fastest way for him to get to Kyoto! And as long as he took this thing with him, who among the dignitaries in Kyoto would dare to say bad things about him behind his back?
After all, Long Zhen, the border general, is very famous in the entire Tiancang Kingdom. Even the high-ranking officials in Kyoto dare not ignore him. Ding Sheng saw that the situation had become so awkward that he could not stand it any longer. He walked up to Gu Chan and admitted his mistake, "Manager Gu, two hundred thousand taels is two hundred thousand taels. As the magistrate of a border county, I will use all my wealth to help the border soldiers win the battle. I will pay even if it means emptying my family's coffers!" "Haha... I don't know how rich your family is, but I actually believed what you said." Gu Chan laughed dryly and mocked. "Really? I'm very poor. Two hundred thousand taels has already drained my family's savings." Ding Sheng said, taking a step back to advance. Gu Chan didn't want to waste any more time talking, and urged directly, "Send the silver here immediately, and then I will give you the recommendation documents. By the way, I wish your daughter a bright future after she arrives in Kyoto." "Okay, I'll go back to the county government office and ask people to prepare it, and then I'll escort the silver over personally." Ding Sheng patted his chest with his hand, looking completely righteous. After saying that, he turned and left, not paying any attention to Wang Feihu and his son. Wang Feihu glared at him fiercely and cursed inwardly, "You fat bastard, you were so loud when you came here, but now you're running away the fastest. Don't let me catch you next time, or I'll kill you first." Gu Chan was far away, so she didn't hear what he was mumbling. She just stared at him and asked, "Mr. Wang, what did you say?" "County Magistrate Ding has emptied his family fortune. It would be unreasonable for me not to pay the two hundred thousand taels. Manager Gu, please wait. I will go back with my son and prepare the money to send to you." Wang Feihu replied with a grim face. Then he immediately called Wang Tianxiao to leave. "Clap clap clap..." As soon as the two of them left, thunderous applause broke out inside and outside the clinic. Everyone was looking at Gu Chan, feeling both gratitude and admiration for her! Gu Chan looked at the wounded soldiers all over the ground and felt sad. "Oh, Tiancang Country! If it continues like this, I'm afraid it's really all over." In the end, she could only sigh bitterly in her heart. Think about such a country, if the county magistrate and the official are like this, how much better can the people who are more outstanding than them be? But now she is powerless and of humble status, and has no ability to change anything. She can only do what she can at the moment, and she will be living up to her conscience. Thinking of this, Gu Chan did not feel any more emotional, but calmed down and continued to treat the wounded. Wang Feihu and Ding Sheng then led their respective men, escorted dozens of boxes of silver, and unloaded them into the Chunfeng Medical Clinic.
Gu Chan stood in the lobby, looking at the silver boxes containing 400,000 taels of silver that filled half the lobby. Her fear of being without money was finally relieved at this moment. Wang Feihu and Ding Sheng stood behind her with gloomy faces. After a moment of silence, Wang Feihu reached out to Gu Chan and said, "Give me the documents for the recommendation." "Why are you so fierce? This money is not for me. It is for buying medicine to save the lives of all the injured soldiers on the border." Gu Chan said unhappily. "Bring it here quickly, stop talking nonsense." Wang Feihu urged. Gu Chan was so angry that she threw the two admission documents directly to them. After each of them received their admission documents, they left with gloomy faces. Gu Chan didn't have time to be angry. She immediately opened the box of silver and continued to purchase medicinal herbs. Those who came to sell herbs also received silver and left. With the herbs, Gu Chan can continue to treat the wounded with peace of mind. But what she didn't expect was that her efforts did not bring good results to the Border Tiger Army. After one night, when Wang Feihu and Ding Sheng sent their son and daughter away from the county town, early the next morning, shortly after dawn, 50,000 troops from the Diyue Kingdom suddenly attacked the tall city gate of the county town. Not long after, a fierce siege began. The 10,000 defenders on the city wall fought desperately to resist the attack of 50,000 enemy troops below the city. The two sides immediately fell into a fierce battle. Inside Chunfeng Medical Clinic. Zhou Dachuan hurriedly pulled Gu Chan and said, "Let's go, pack up and run! If this continues, the city will be broken sooner or later, and it will be even more difficult for us ordinary people to escape." "I don't understand. With the combat power of 100,000 soldiers guarding the border, they shouldn't lose so quickly! How could the enemy get outside the county so quickly?" Gu Chan slumped in the chair, confused to the extreme. Just last night at midnight, she got the news from Mickey Mouse that the Tiger Army was still fighting fiercely with the enemy on the battlefield in the border forest. But only one night had passed. Where did these 50,000 enemy troops from the Earth Moon Kingdom come from? Zhou Dachuan couldn't explain it clearly, but just kept urging, "Don't worry about it, the enemy is here anyway, we just need to run." "Woo..." Just as Zhou Dachuan finished speaking, before Gu Chan could reply, a deafening enemy horn sounded suddenly from the direction of the city gate. Everyone in and out of the clinic looked towards the city gate, and instantly their faces turned pale. Because everyone knows that if the enemy blows the horn on the battlefield, it proves that the enemy has won. This is the sound of the horn of victory, the county town has been broken by them, and the enemy has already entered the city. Zhou Dachuan slumped to the ground, wailing with a pale face, "It's over, it's completely over. We can't run away now even if we want to." "What is going on? Why did the enemy break into the city so quickly? This is unscientific!" Gu Chan kept talking to himself with his head down. Faced with these completely unreasonable situations, she was completely confused! (End of this chapter)
