Gu Rao not only turned himself into a beggar every day, but also made every woman dress up like this and taught them how to protect themselves. As a result, in such a big house, not a single woman had a fair face.

Even an aunt in her thirties or forties has her face symbolically smeared with pot ashes.

Bieye promised again, "I will definitely protect you. I will kill anyone who dares to covet you."

Gu Rao pinched his face.

"Don't open your mouth and kill people. Even if the world is in chaos now, you can't kill people at will. Do you understand?"

Bieye defended himself, "I didn't kill people randomly. I killed people who deserved to be killed."

He grabbed Gu Rao's hand and looked at the blisters on her palm, feeling a flash of distress in his eyes.

"Just let others do these things. There are so many people with nothing to do, so you don't have to do everything yourself."

Gu Rao wanted to take back his hand, but was held tightly by Bie Ye.

"It doesn't hurt."

Bieye took her back to their bedroom, used a needle to pop the blisters, then applied gold sore medicine and wrapped it with gauze.

Gu Rao sat on the edge of the bed, speechlessly looking at his hands wrapped into buns.

"It's just two blisters. You're making too much of a fuss. How can I work with my hands wrapped like this?"

Bieyejian frowned slightly.

"You don't have to work."

Gu Rao said, "There is not much food left outside. I have to figure out how to eat it. With so many people, the food can only last for another ten days at most."

"In order to last longer, I have to add a little food from the space to it when others are not paying attention. These things can only be done by myself."

I can't help but feel a little worried.

What should I do next?

The imperial court has never sent anyone to clear out the rebels, and they have been trapped in this small area!

Bieye said, "I've worked hard on you during this period."

Gu Rao shook his head.

"It's not hard."

"As long as we are all safe, whatever we do is worth it."

She actually didn't do much, she just helped take care of the patients and cooked with other people every day.

However, after all, it is food for tens of thousands of people, so it is not an easy thing to make.

Bieye put down the unused gauze and sat next to Gu Rao. Regardless of the dust on her face, he gently kissed her forehead.

"You won't have to work so hard soon."

Gu Rao was stunned for a moment.

"how do I say this?"

Beyeye revealed all his plans.

"That group of people went to surrender. The rebels only focused on annihilating that group of people, not caring about the rear. This is when the rear guard is weakest. I plan to take this opportunity to lead people to steal their food."

"In order to confuse the public, I will also send some people to rescue people. If the rebels are fighting with our people, they should not be able to react quickly enough that the granary has been robbed."

"The rebels are numerous and powerful, and most of them are strong men. Although we also have many people, most of them are old, weak, women and children, and only half of them are strong men who can fight."

"That's why I've been holding back."

Since a head-on confrontation is not necessarily an opponent, one can only outsmart him, and the rebel's thought-provoking plan gave him a chance to use it to his advantage.

Gu Rao was silent for a long time after listening.

"Did you have this plan a long time ago, or was it just a spur-of-the-moment decision?"

Bieye said truthfully, "The moment the rebels came to persuade me to surrender, this plan was completed in my mind. I also expected that many people would want to surrender. No matter how hard we tried, we couldn't persuade them, so we might as well take advantage of this opportunity." Take a chance."

Gu Rao slapped his hand off her own.

"Since you had such a thorough plan, why didn't you tell me until now? Why didn't I know when there would be a secret between us?"

Bieye had long expected Gu Rao's reaction.

"Don't be angry yet, listen to my explanation."

Gu Rao sneered.

"explain?"

"Is there any explanation? The facts are before us. You deliberately hid it from me before! Get out now, I don't want to hear your excuses!"

Bieye said helplessly, "I never thought of keeping it secret from you. It's just that you are too soft-hearted. I'm worried that you will reveal some tricks if you know in advance, and I'm also worried that you can't bear to let them use them as bait."

Gu Rao was still angry.

"That was their own choice. If you send people to rescue them, no matter what the purpose is, it will be better than the result I thought before that they would never come back."

"What can't I bear to do?"

"You don't trust me that much?"

Bieye's heart was in his throat, knowing that if he didn't explain clearly this time, he might have a rift with his wife.

"This plan is risky. I was confused before and thought you would stop me, so I didn't tell you until now."

Gu Rao became even more angry.

"You were afraid that I would stop you, so you decided to kill it first and then tell me later. Now when you have to implement the plan, you tell me that I can't stop it even if I want to?"

"Why didn't I realize you were so smart before?"

Beye Ye started to sweat on his forehead.

"Madam, I was wrong. I won't dare to make my own decisions anymore. Don't be angry. When I come back, I will accept any punishment you want."

Gu Rao looked at his pitiful look, and her heart softened again. She knew that in the face of a great crisis, it was not the time to be petty.

"Forget it this time. No matter what decision you make in the future, you must discuss it with me. You can't do it again like this time. You won't tell me the truth until the end of the matter."

Bieye nodded repeatedly.

"it is good."

Gu Rao was a little worried, but did not refute Bieye's decision.

"That group of people should have arrived at the market soon. Since you have decided to take advantage of the rebels' attention being drawn away by them to rob the rebels' rear areas of food, there is no need to delay any further."

"Go ahead, I'll wait for you to come back."

Beyeye stood up.

"it is good."

He had just taken two steps when he was stopped by Gu Rao again.

"Once we find that the situation is unfavorable, we have to come back no matter what the cost. It doesn't matter if we can't get food. We can think of other ways."

Bieye turned back and smiled at her.

"it is good."

-

During this period of time, Bieye has been deliberately teaching these men to exercise. Even if food is in short supply, these men are not hungry.

The men's bodies are much stronger than before.

At this time, Bieye gathered the strong men together and revealed his plan.

Knowing that they were going to fight with others, many people showed their timidity.

"The rebels are outnumbered and we are no match for them."

"They also have weapons seized from the government. We only have hoes, hammers, and shovels. How can we defeat them?"

"Those who surrendered did so on their own volition. We have no connection with them, so why should we save them?"

"I have an elder and a younger one, and I am the only strong man in the family. If I die, who will take care of them?"

……

Bieye waited for them to finish speaking, until the voices in the crowd quietened down, and then calmly said, "Have you finished talking?"

No one in the crowd made a sound anymore.
