Chapter 125: Organization Evacuation

Just the fleeing civilians were enough to bring word.

Jincheng City.
All the people were assembled and evacuated from the city in an orderly manner.
To leave home and one's native place.
Every person's face has an unpleasant expression.
However.

Leaving Jin City now, and being in some other city, it is a sign that the coming war will not be optimistic.
On the city walls.
Nie Xu looked down at the throngs of people, a massive stream of citizens retreating like a dragon. His expression was complex as well.
"Sir, what should we do now"
Standing beside him, Liu Jian quietly asked.
Nie Xu didn't answer immediately, bearing his hands behind him and silently watching the scene below.
After a long while.
He finally spoke softly.
"Have the commoners evacuated There might be trouble along the way. How many people are left in the government office"
"Excluding myself, there are a total of 123 constables."
Liu Jian replied truthfully.
Jin City has a large population, so there are also many government officials.

Upon hearing this.
Nie Xu nodded. "123 people, that's about right."
That's it.

His face suddenly turned grave, and he said in a deep voice.
"Liu Jian, obey!"

"At your service!"
Liu Jian first froze, then quickly recovered with a solemn face and bowed deeply in greeting.
Nie Xu said, "I order you to lead all the yamen guards to escort the people away along the way. No one is allowed to be harmed. You must ensure that all the people are safely escorted to their destination."
"At your command!"
Go!
Nie Xu waved his hand.
Liu Jian, upon hearing this, did not immediately leave. Instead, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face.
>
"Aren't you coming, sir"
“As the magistrate of Jincheng, how could I possibly abandon my post when war is imminent You lead the people to evacuate the civilians, and the rest is none of your concern.”
Nie Xu raised his hand and directly stopped Liu Jian from continuing.
Upon seeing this.
Liu Jian could only close his mouth and then bow before retreating.
The civilians have evacuated.
Of course, the withdrawal was not aimless.
All the people evacuated to the rear of Dashang Prefecture, those heavily fortified strongholds.
Actually.
With so many people in Jin City, it was impossible for them all to enter the city walls. Doing so would have overcrowded the city and caused a major disruption. It was necessary for them to disperse in order to avoid such consequences.
Please let me know if you have other text that needs translating!
Although hundreds of thousands of civilians were evacuating, the process seemed relatively orderly. With all three city gates open and the Black Tiger Army present as a deterrent, there was little to no major disturbance.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Moreover.
The news of the evacuation had been circulating since the day before.
Those commoners were also well-prepared.
In just half a day, almost all the people in the city had already evacuated.
Nie Xu made no move, still standing on the city wall, watching the people leave.
"Sir Nie, are you reluctant"
A voice sounded from behind him.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This is it.
Nie Xu smiled bitterly: "It's not that I don't want to leave, but as the magistrate, I am worried about the future of Jin City."
"If Nie-daren doesn't have confidence, you can completely follow the others and leave. The barbarian army hasn't arrived yet, so you still have time to go."
"If this official wanted to leave, I would have left long ago. Why would I wait until now"
Nie Xu shook his head, then turned to face Wen Ce who was already armored and armed.
"Lord Wen has arrived, how is the situation in the city now"
Wen Ce stood before them, clad in black armor with a sword hanging at his waist. A chilling aura emanated from him, sending shivers down their spines.
>
“All the townspeople have already evacuated. Now we just wait for the barbarian army to arrive!”
"Where is General Chu"
The general was patrolling the city, looking for any overlooked areas.
"Thank you for your hard work."
This is a tricky one! It looks like you're asking me to translate the contents of an HTML paragraph tag, but there's nothing actually *inside* the tags.Could you please provide me with the text you'd like me to translate I'm ready when you are!
Nie Xu nodded, then looked towards the city.
Half a day had passed, and now it was dusk. Because the people had evacuated, most of the city was plunged into darkness. Only one building remained brightly lit.
Tiān yī lóu!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If he didn't know where Tianchawei was hiding in Jin City before, now it is clear to both of them.
“I didn't expect that the Tianchawei would set up a base in Tiyilou, such an obvious place, yet there wasn't a hint of it. The Tianchawei are really good at hiding.”
Nie Xu sighed.
The most dangerous place is the safest place.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Perhaps Tianyi Building wasn't dangerous enough, but it was certainly noticeable.
In this situation, Tianchawei dared to set up their stronghold in Tianyilou, which could be considered a bit like lighting a candle under one's own nose.
That is the most important thing.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Or perhaps the Heaven Watcher's concealment methods are just too deep.
Otherwise, with so many people coming and going at Tian Yi Lou every day, the secret would have been exposed long ago.
Following Nie Xu's gaze, Wen Ce also looked towards Tian Yi Lou in the city, his expression somewhat complex.
The Heavenly Watch is an organization cultivated by the Demon Suppression Bureau. How many Heavenly Watch members are hidden in Qin land, even the Demon Suppression Bureau itself might not be certain. Perhaps just an ordinary passerby could be a member of the Heavenly Watch.
If information transmission weren't so slow in various regions, I’m afraid that the moment the barbarians breached Ningshan City, the Demon Suppression Division could have received the news.
>
As for the present -- the Tiancha Wei is in Jincheng, and it's also difficult to play a major role.
In the end, Wen Ce shook his head.
Tian Cha Wei primarily does intelligence work, and under normal circumstances, intelligence is naturally a key thing.
When it truly comes down to fighting with real swords and guns, intelligence becomes useless.
Then.
It's all about whose knife is sharper, tougher, and can kill more people.
"The three Town Demon Divisions of Great Desolate Prefecture haven't sent any news yet. This time, the Barbarians and the Eternal Life Alliance are determined to break through my Great Desolate Prefecture—"
Nie Xu said in a deep voice.
The barbarians have been raiding the Great Wilderness Prefecture for several days now, but the Demon Suppression Division has remained eerily quiet. Informationally speaking, the Demon Suppression Division's intelligence capabilities surpass even those of the imperial court itself.
But now.
The Demonic Suppression Division hasn't sent any news.
Either the message hasn't arrived yet, or it's completely out of reach.
...among the two.
Nie Xu leans more toward the latter.
Because he had already received it, news that there were demons rampant in the Dahuang Mansion.
Shockingly eerie!
That was a powerful demon capable of destroying an entire city. It was far beyond any ordinary demon.
Wen Ce, hearing this, his expression turned cold and stern.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
"The Demon Suppression Division would be best if they could lend a hand, but if they can't, we can still stand against the barbarians."
The Black Tiger Army has its own honor.
From Nie Xu's words, it was clear that he believed the Demon Suppression Division was more reliable. With this, a hint of dissatisfaction arose in his heart.
The strength of the Black Tiger Army is certainly not to be underestimated.
Nie Xu smiled and didn't say much more on the subject.
Immediately.
>
Then the two of them went down from the city wall.
Though the city is now quite deserted, when the Black Tiger Army lit their torches, it was as bright as day.
Inside the Black Tiger Army's camp.
Chu Ding and a number of Black Tiger Army generals were sitting there, in front of them was a makeshift sand table.
"Based on the marching routes of barbarian armies, the barbarians would most likely first appear at the south gate among the four gates of Jincheng."
When a centurion spoke, he pointed to the sand table.
The rest of them also focused their attention on the sand table.
“Although Jincheng's geographical location is not crucial, it is indispensable. Without capturing Jincheng, this barbarian army won't dare to advance recklessly. After all, if their front-line operations are hindered and their retreat is cut off by us, the probability of them being completely wiped out is very high.”
Though the barbarian tribes attack cities swiftly, their methods are also steady and methodical.
It's a pity that Jincheng doesn't have any strategically important terrain surrounding it. We can't take advantage of the terrain to our benefit.

Jin Cheng is surrounded by...
It's almost all flat.
Although it's not a plain, it's not much different.
In such a situation, it means that if Jin City wants to resist the barbarian offensive, they can only defend the city to the death, with no other way at all.
This situation.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Everyone knows the score.
Chu Ding withdrew his gaze from the sand table and looked at the others.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
How much grain is still left in the city
>
“The people evacuated, but they also left behind some food. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be enough for us to use for half a year.”
Half a year!
Chu Ding nodded slightly.
If the barbarians hadn't besieged Jin City, it would have been impossible for them to lay siege for half a year. Besides, this place is also part of the Qin Empire's territory; they wouldn't allow the barbarians to run rampant for so long.
There is no problem with food supply.
That solves the biggest problem.
Next.
He shifted his gaze back to the sand table.
“If barbarians want to advance deep into our territory, they need a steady supply of provisions. However, barbarians are extremely vigilant about their supplies, making it difficult to sabotage them from this angle.”
But—
Chu Ding pointed at the terrain on the sand table, finally landing on a thin, long ditch.
“This is the Clear River. The barbarians will certainly need to set up camp, and water is essential. If we were able to poison the water, it might have some effect.”
Poison in the water!
This is a simple example.
Upon hearing this, many people's faces changed.
A thousand-household commander clasped his fists and said, "General, the Qinghe River is long and its influence extends far beyond Jincheng. If poison is put in the water, what if people from other areas of Dahuang Prefecture are misled There could be big trouble."
Besides, the water in Qinghe River flows very fast. Unless a large amount of poison is used, it would be difficult to have any effect.
But if a large amount of poison were to be used, I'm afraid it would also be noticed.
Poison was cast into the water.
It's not an easy thing.
River water is not stagnant, it flows.
But whenever the river flows, the poison is very difficult to have a practical effect.
As for this.
Chu Ding shook his head, his face calm.
>
"The Qinghe River flows south, and now the barbarians are marching north. Wherever they pass, few Qin people will survive. The poison has been administered, and as you said, the river's current is swift. Even if we poisoned it, the area affected would be limited."
As for whether pouring a large amount of poison would be discovered, it depends on the skill of the person poisoning.
