Chapter 425: Luo Family (5)

As soon as she said that, the surroundings fell silent.
A moment later, Madam Ma reacted. She smiled and said, “Jiaojiao, don’t be afraid. Those Turks are all outside the city and don’t dare to come in. Even if they do, the soldiers will chase them away. We’ve been safe and sound for so many years. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”
Shen Qiu also thought that Shen Miao was afraid and comforted her softly, “Aunt is right. Jiaojiao, don’t be afraid.”
Shen Miao lowered her eyes. Spring City was a small place at the border. At the border, nomads had always been harrassing. The Turks in the east were one of them. These Turks had strong bodies and strong horses, and they were very brave in battle. If they really fought, Ming Qi might be the one at a disadvantage. However, because Spring City was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Luo family was famous, these Turks did not dare to advance and only caused small skirmishes at the border. Every August to October, the grassland where the Turks lived would be dry, and the Turks would enter Spring City to snatch things. The people were used to this, so they did not take it to heart.
However, Shen Miao remembered that this year, something big happened in Spring City.
She nodded and said casually, “Is the Luo army as brave as the Shen army? If that’s the case, if the Turks attack the city, we’ll definitely be able to resist.”
Luo Sui’s expression froze. Luo Lianying and Luo Liantai’s expressions were not good either. The Luo family could not afford to maintain such a huge expenditure of running an army. In addition, Emperor Wen Hui did not care about Spring City at all. After so many years, the Luo army was no different from non-existence. The soldiers went home to farm and do business, and the Luo army that was left was no different from commoners. Other than deterring the Turks at the border every year, they did not have anything else to do. Comparing the Luo and Shen armies was simply slapping the faces of the Luo family.
Luo Sa immediately turned hostile. He looked at Shen Miao and said angrily, “What do you mean?”
Luo Ling quickly tugged at him and looked at Shen Miao. “Second Brother is being too harsh. Cousin, don’t take it to heart.”
“The people from the capital are indeed different.” Luo Tan curled her lips. “They are easily frightened. We’ve lived here for so many years and have enjoyed peace. Cousin, don’t worry. The Turks won’t enter the city….”
Shen Miao smiled. “So what if they enter the city?”
Luo Tan did not expect Shen Miao to refute and was stunned.
Luo Sui, who was sitting at the head seat, did not say anything. This was how the Luo family educated their young descendants. They let them compete and argue on their own. Only by debating could they learn something new. The elders only watched quietly from the side. Some of what Shen Miao said just now was interesting. If Luo Sui did not speak, Luo Lianying and the others would not speak anything either. They just sat back and watched the juniors argue.
“How can they enter the city?” Luo Tan said angrily, “Those Turks only want food and tools. After October, when the drought ends, they will stop the harassment. If they enter the city, they have to fight our soldiers. Why would they take the risk?”
Shen Miao’s expression did not change. She said indifferently, “Don’t you think it’s too easy for them to be satisfied with just food and tools?”
Everyone was stunned.
Luo Qian was about the same age as Shen Miao. He asked curiously, “Cousin, what do you mean?”
“If it were me, I wouldn’t be satisfied,” Shen Miao replied gently. “They have brave soldiers, strong horses, and an enormous grassland to retreat to. Compared to the scattered soldiers in Spring City, they have much better winning conditions. Why won’t they take the risk? The only reason they haven’t done anything yet is because they are not familiar with the layout of Spring City. However, after exploring it for more than ten years, even if they only come to this small city once a year, they’ll still be able to come up with a rough map.” She tilted her head and smiled. “As far as I know, there is no agreement between the Turks and Spring City to not invade each other. Am I right?”
