Chapter 123 Breakthrough! Jiangnan County (6)(1/2)
"Haha, everyone is at fault. You are all blinded by habitual thinking. Have any of you counted any signs of this sinister presence?"
The captains looked at me and I looked at you, all shaking their heads and saying nothing. Even Ma Ming realized that what Liu Zheji said might be a major issue that they had been ignoring.
"Now everyone, look at the writing in my hand!" Liu Zheji pointed at the map and turned back at the official road. Liu Zheji specially marked an extremely thick line.
"There are many factors that cause evil spirits to appear, but according to my observation, their appearance is inseparable from one factor! That is people!"
When Liu Zheji talked about people, he glanced at both sides of the official road intentionally or unintentionally, where the corpses of the evil spirits who had been killed and thrown away by Mo Jiajun were piled up in a pile.
"The evil spirits are born from people. If we keep following the official path, we will only encounter more evil spirits. Until we reach a place with more people, it is not impossible to meet a few evil generals." Liu Zheji said this.
The words were heard by Uncle Fu who was passing by. At this time, he was discussing the distribution of supplies with the logistics officer Cui Xue. When he heard Liu Zheji's words, he suddenly fell silent.
"Fu Guanjia?" Cui Xue from the opposite side couldn't help shouting.
Uncle Fu signaled Cui Xue to wait, then he faced Liu Zheji's direction and listened carefully.
"This road will get further and further away from the Wusu River, so not many people will choose to escape from here. But I looked carefully and found that all the way down along this road, there are some remote places and cities.
There are not many, so we have to go from here." As he said that, Liu Zheji drew an arc from the turnaround point of the official road on the map.
"First transfer to Feng County, then jump to Longcheng, and go all the way north. We will arrive along the Wusu River. When we get here, you will know how to get there, right?!"
"Go further west! Then go straight to Zhanshui City!" Uncle Fu interrupted from a distance.
When everyone heard Uncle Fu's voice, they stopped immediately. When Uncle Fu walked over, everyone bowed down and saluted.
"Zheji, well done!" Uncle Fu glanced at Liu Zheji encouragingly and motioned for him to continue.
Liu Zheji nodded to Uncle Fu, and then continued: "The next stop is Feng County, which is sparsely populated, but we can still get the land of one county. Even if the supplies are not much, it is enough for us to make the transition!
"
After Liu Zheji finished speaking the rest of his words in one breath, he looked at Uncle Fu with inquiring eyes, and Fu Bo thought for a long time.
"Instruct the whole army to advance according to the broken plan!"
After Uncle Fu gave the order, the entire army immediately set out. On the other side, Zhanshui City was already in chaos.
"Sir, our cities of Zhanshui, Lingtan, and Shaguang have been overcrowded recently. Countless civilians are pouring in along the official road. If this continues, I am afraid that our city of Zhanshui will be lost soon!"
On the wall of Zhanshui City, Fang Xueqing was wearing a black robe. Looking at the dense crowd of people below the city, he felt agitated. The words of his subordinates who came over at this time made him even more upset.
Taking a deep breath, Fang Xueqing asked slowly: "How many giant spirit boats are there left available?"
This subordinate is Fang Xueqing's chief clerk of the city. What's rare is that there is such chaos in the city and he hasn't taken advantage of the chaos to escape. Fang Xueqing is not very impressed with this chief clerk, but now he is the only person he can use.
"Lingtan, the Lord of the Second City of Shaguang City has secretly taken away two of the giant spirit boats. Now only we in Zhanshui City have two boats left, and one has been repaired for half and is still unusable. The subordinates have ordered people to take care of this."
The Master Director hesitated for a moment and said.
"Master Zhang." Fang Xueqing said suddenly.
"My subordinate is here."
"My five innate soldiers are at your disposal, and we must protect the two giant spirit boats no matter what! Everyone who comes close, no matter who they are! Without my order, shoot to death!"
Master Zhang looked serious and bowed to accept the order.
After Master Zhang retreated, Fang Xueqing stood alone on top of the city. It was only now that he felt how small a person's power was. The imperial city had not come to rescue for a long time, and the transformation state had not yet appeared. Fang
Xueqing couldn't help but feel disheartened. He even suspected that the big man had given up on Jiangnan County.
Fang Xueqing looked at the dark clouds getting closer and closer in the distance and felt panic in his heart. He knew that the closer the dark clouds were, the more they represented the coming of the end of the world. When the dark clouds completely covered this place, Jiangnan County would also become a planet.
Abandoned son.
"Fang Wudao, if you were alive now, what would you do?" Fang Xueqing, who had always been indifferent, was exhausted both physically and mentally. He could now understand why Fang Wudao had lacked care for him since he was a child.
, needless to say, the relationship between the two brothers was estranged after Fang Wudao entered politics.
Lizhou, Congyun Houfu.
It only took half a day for the Guan Dao people to fly from Huangji City to Lizhou. After arriving in Lizhou, the Guan Dao people went straight to Congyun Houfu without stopping.
"Gongsun Li! Come out quickly!" After entering Congyun Hou Mansion, Taoist Guan glanced around with the power of his soul, but did not find Gongsun Li. Gongsun Li would never leave Congyun Hou Mansion, so there is only one way
Maybe, he is hiding in a secret room that can isolate the power of the soul from detection!
Under the instigation of Taoist Fang's true energy, his voice spread throughout Congyun Hou Mansion. He roared several times. When he saw that Gongsun Li not only refused to come out, but also sent a naive little bear to come up and persuade him, he suddenly became furious.
He was furious and said: "Gongsun Li! If you don't come out again, I will demolish your shabby house!"
"Who is making noise here?"
Gongsun Li's angry voice came from the underground of Cong Yunhou Mansion. Taoist Guan found out that Gongsun Li was indeed here. He couldn't help but touched his nose and said: "This Gongsun Li has no ability, he is hiding quite deep."
"Please be careful what you say."
When Xiao Xiong heard what Taoist Guan said, his face froze and he said in a somewhat unkind tone.
"Hey, you little bastard, how dare you talk to me like that?" Taoist Guan was angry and funny.
He knew the original form of this little bear, the Purple Heaven Divine Bear, whose strength was comparable to that of the Transformation Realm, but his Taoist priests didn't take it seriously.
At this time, Gongsun Li flew out of the secret room with a darkened face. He had just tried to use a rare spiritual treasure "Suzaku Feather" to melt the ice on Gu Meng'er's surface, but failed. Although Zhuque Feather had a huge fire
It was based on spiritual power, but it happened to collide with the source bead in Gu Menger's body. The source bead sensed an enemy invasion and automatically protected its owner. In this way, the ice layer on Gu Menger's body became even deeper.
"Gongsun Li, come with me to Tianji Palace!" Taoist Guan didn't look good on Gongsun Li when he saw him, but he didn't expect that Gongsun Li was in a worse mood than him. He saw Gongsun Li's face as heavy as water and his back behind him.
His hands are ready to move.
"Guan Laodao, if you continue to act recklessly like this, I will not hold the Dragon Yin Sword in my hand for a long time." As he said that, Gongsun Li drew out the Dragon Yin Sword, and a loud dragon roar immediately shook Taoist Guan to his core.
"You!" Taoist Guan was about to get angry, but his mind changed, and like a magic trick, his expression changed and he said, "Gongsun Li, do you still want to save your disciple?"
When Gongsun Li heard what Taoist Guan said, he put away the Dragon Song Sword and said in a deep voice: "Can you save my disciple? Wait? How do you know that I have accepted a disciple? Taoist Guan! You use Qin Tian Bao Jian to calculate me.
?”
Gongsun Li was immediately furious and wanted to take action with the Dragon Sword again.
"Fart! Can I use this Qin Tian Bao Jian at will? My disciple calculated this! Do you want to save your disciple? If not, I will turn around and leave!"
"Humph, if you can't save me, don't blame me for being rude!"
Taoist Guan couldn't help but rolled his eyes. They kissed him like this just a few days after he became his disciple. You may not be sure whether the apprentice recognizes him or not, but this is also what Taoist Guan thinks in his heart. On the surface, he mainly wants to appease Gongsun Li.
.
"Take me to see your disciple, I can save him!" Mo Jiajun, under the command of Liu Zheji, turned to Feng County at the turnaround of the official road. Feng County is a good place before Jubian in Jiangnan County. Rumor has it that Feng County is a good place to go.
The giant monster Iris Phoenix successfully overcame the tribulation here, and the name Feng County was born from this.
Nowadays, Feng County is completely empty of people. When Mo Jiajun arrived, there were no people left in Feng County. Not even a single chicken was left. Liu Zheji was very suspicious that all the chickens, ducks, geese and other livestock were allowed to escape.
He killed the people and ate them along the way.
The Mojia Army of 800 people spends at least 80 days on food a day, and the warriors are not happy with meat, and the consumption of meat is even more terrifying. But now no one cares about whether there is meat to eat, as long as there is food, then
That's great luck.
"Report to the general, three hundred dan of grain was found in a secret granary ahead!" A soldier reported to Liu Zheji excitedly.
"What? Eight hundred days?" Liu Zheji was almost shocked when he heard there was so much food. Feng County is so small, he didn't expect there to be so much food stored.
"Report! Food was found in the houses ahead! One thousand dan! Also, there is a lot of bacon!" The soldiers who came this time were stuttering when they spoke, especially when talking about bacon, Liu Zheji clearly saw a trace of it.
Drool flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"We can't take away so much food." At this time, Cui Xue, the logistics officer, couldn't help but have a headache looking at the mountains of food piled up in the granary. She didn't expect Liu Zheji to actually find supplies for her, but it gave her a headache.
It also followed that the storage rings of several of their innate warriors were also limited, and the top-quality storage bag specially sent to her by Faubert could only hold a few dozen denier, and the rest had to be escorted by the logistics camp.
.
"Keep three days' expenses and put the rest back in the warehouse for storage. Maybe we will need it next time." Liu Zheji said thoughtfully.
In desperation, Cui Xue had no choice but to order the logistics battalion to move the food back.
"Are there any farm implements, carriages or the like nearby?"
Liu Zheji remembered what Uncle Fu had said to him the day before yesterday. The Mojia Army must arrive at the Wusu River within ten days, but at the current speed of travel, reaching the Wusu River within three days is a bit difficult."
"Report to the general, the logistics battalion is counting the supplies in Feng County. The inventory will be completed in half an hour." A messenger said.
Liu Zheji gave a soft "hmm" and then ordered the messenger to have the people from the logistics camp modify the farm implement carriage. All mounts in the Mojia Army must be hitched to the cart.
In this way, the marching speed of the Mo Jia Army will be greatly increased. The Huoyun Horse is famous for its good endurance. It is more than enough for two Huoyun Horses to hitch a cart and pull more than ten soldiers.
This was only possible on the route chosen by Liu Zheji. The official road was full of corpses and evil spirits, plus the materials discarded everywhere by the people, making it impossible for the cart to move smoothly on it.
After arranging many matters, Liu Zheji felt a little tired, so he returned to the carriage and summoned Ying Yi.
"Young Master, what are your orders?" Ying Yi's elegant and tall body appeared in the carriage again. This time she followed suit and did not stand and talk to Liu Zheji. Instead, she sat cross-legged and looked a little awkward.
.
"Aren't you tired sitting like this?" Liu Zheji asked Ying Yi strangely. Her current posture made people look uncomfortable. There was nowhere to place her long legs, so Ying Yi had to straighten her waist.
Put it down, but Yingyi is still several heads taller than Liu Zheji.
"Master, if you are afraid that Ying Yi will be tired, let Ying Yi go back and rest." Ying Yi was also quite uncomfortable with her posture. She twisted her stuck legs and said to Liu Zheji.
