The boys Pinlu and Yinfeng asked and answered: "How can there be so many people in one city? It's not a prosperous city."
"It seems that Lord Yu brought along people from several cities he passed and surrounding market towns and villages along the way."
"Master Yu, you are trying to feed Mr. Yu. It makes no sense. You have to take care of the food of tens of thousands of people. How hard it must be for Mr. Yu."
"If Mr. Yu doesn't become an official, he will no longer be able to use his power to bully Mr. Yu. It's just that the big fish and the little fish hate each other and they are just blackmailing Mr. Yu."
"Copycat, sir, you must settle the score with Big Fish. Let's fight."
"You can also calculate the accounts of Xiaoyu's robbery, and find out Xiaoyu's bad temper for bullying Mr."
The corners of Lei Wuchen's eyes twitched, and he said feebly: "It's done, stop talking, I understand everything. You guys who copied the big boats, go to a few big boats to pick people up. This world is not peaceful, and I can't sit in the lake and play the piano safely.
"Drink the wind, taste the dew, and take my clothes for going out. I will take a big boat to the lake and let's go for a walk into the world."
The two fat and white boys lit up their faces at the same time and started laughing together.
Yin Feng said quickly: "Sir, I will pack you in many nice clothes. When the time comes, when the rebel army is in the formation, you will appear like immortals with us, and you will look so majestic."
Pinlu said: "Sir, I will bring more musical instruments. Let's save Guangyang City first, or Dongliang City first. There is a big fish named Yu Xinbo in Dongliang City. Yu Xinzhong is just a second master, he is the big second fish.
"
Lei Wuchen said angrily: "I won't go to Dongliang City, I'm afraid of encountering an evil little fish."
His drum, his flute, his flute... the hateful little fish took them away, and the even more hateful Yu Cun still refuses to pay compensation.
"Master Xiaoyu is out to save the world. She should go to Guangyang City." Yin Feng said.
And from the perspective of terrain: "Guangyang is closer to the capital. If I am an ambitious person and trap Dongliang City and leave the big fish, I can still negotiate the price with Master Yu. Sir, let's save Dongliang City, and then go
Asking for favors from Master Yu."
"Actually, sir, you don't have to worry. Although it's wrong for you to curse, Xiaoyu Wuye was wearing men's clothing at the time. Men all have eggs, so she won't take it to heart." Pinlu seemed to be kind-hearted in comfort: "It's okay if you encounter it. I'll take care of it.
The meeting gift will be given to Mr. Xiaoyu Wu when the time comes."
Lei Wuchen said angrily: "Don't mention this again. How many times have I scolded her? She doesn't remember it. Do I have to remember it?"
What's the gift? My drum, my flute, my flute... and they actually refused to pay for it.
Yinfeng and Pinlu made faces at each other and went in to pack their things together.
That night, several large boats appeared in the fog. The boatmen contacted Yu Xinzhong. Lei Wuchen and two fat white boys quietly jumped off the stern of the boat and walked into the mortal world under the cover of night and fog.
Yu Xinzhong placed Pingjianghou's wife, his wife and others on the islands in the middle of the lake, and asked for a boat to take him and the accompanying officials back to the lake to go to Taipinghou.
It was agreed that he would meet Marquis Ping Jiang at Taiping Marquis Mansion.
Even though he is a civil servant, he can still exert a little light, just a little, and there is no reason for the imperial officials to retreat.
...
When the escort team stopped, Miao Bao also stopped with three carriages. At the same time, he clearly saw the two characters "Shunxing" flying in the sky over a city in front of him.
He squinted his eyes and recalled that on the way he walked, this city was still more than a hundred miles away from Guangyang City, but now it has fallen into the hands of Prince Shunxing.
Miao Bao was surprised and said: "Did Guangyang City be captured?"
The team leader looked over and said: "Probably not yet, I haven't seen more people. My Siping Marquis cleared about 500 miles away, because the soldiers and horses are not as good as the prince's, and there are many places to detour in the fight, even if the flag is flying in front of him
, and will not allow him to occupy it safely."
When he said this, there were shouts at the top of the city, as if someone was fighting.
Miao Baoji said eagerly: "Can we go around the city?"
"Mr. Miao, don't worry," the squad leader had been treating Miao Bao politely these days. From his attitude, we could tell what Marquis Siping said.
Miao Bao was not at ease. He felt that it was normal for Marquis Siping to ask his subordinates to be more polite to him for his own sake.
The squad leader carefully observed the situation in the city, but decided to rest where he was: "Master Miao, there are still four hours before the date we and the Marquis agreed to send troops. The chaos in the city has nothing to do with us. Going around the city now is full of variables.
Halfway through the city, soldiers and horses rush out of the city. I only have these people on hand. I'm afraid I can't protect you."
As he spoke, he recalled the words given by Marquis Siping alone.
"This letter must be handed over to Lei Qi. Even if you die in the battle to the last person, you must see Lei Qi deliver the things before taking a breath."
It seems that the squad leader is protecting Master Yu's family, but in fact he also has important matters.
Talking to himself, he also told Miao Bao: "We have to go hundreds of miles surrounded by hundreds of thousands of people. The small number of people is our advantage, but the small number of people, the three carriages are carrying heavy things, and
It’s not a light cavalry, so we can’t act rashly. We can only continue on the road after the Marquis fights as promised.”
If they were escorting a group of light cavalry, the captain would dare to go anywhere and set off at any time.
Although the encirclement of hundreds of thousands of people sounds scary, the area in this radius is also quite large. The distance in a straight line is hundreds of miles. In this radius, light cavalry can travel freely and dodge at will. As long as the horses, dry food and water can keep up, dozens of
So what if there are thousands of people? They can't do it. Hundreds of thousands of people are blocking the front line, and they can't get out of the way on official roads.
Miao Bao knew what he said made sense, so he could only hold back and stop urging him.
"Mr. Miao, those rooms in front can be used for rest, and they look private. Let's go there and wait."
"good."
Miao Bao drove his carriage to follow.
This is an outdoor shop, located between the city and market towns like Shili and Ershili. The reason is that there are many people coming into the city. It is very convenient to shop in this shop and earn some money selling food.
The owner of the shop should leave calmly. The shop is clean, there is not a grain of food left in a hurry, there is not even half a piece of firewood left next to the stove, the iron pot on the stove has also been taken away, and only the four-burner stove cannot be dismantled.
, with four empty openings in place.
They all brought iron pots for cooking, as well as rice grains. There were trees in front of and behind the store, which provided ready-made firewood, and they had no intention of cooking on the stove.
There is a chimney on the stove, which concentrates the smoke and discharges it conspicuously. At the same time, in order to attract guests out of town, the smoke from the chimney is easily visible.
It was not good for them to cook like this, so the team leader and Miao Bao found an open space behind the store covered by a big tree and built a campfire to cook. Because of the hot weather, they could make two or three meals of dry food at a time, which saves trouble and allows them to travel more.
Miao Bao silently calculated the itinerary.
On the dirt, he drew the road he took when he escorted Yu Xinxiu to Guangyang and back, as well as the cities and market towns he passed. If Guangyang City is captured, the soldiers and horses of the two princes can easily go straight in. They only need to bypass the momentum of the main force.
, the road ahead will be easier.
It was a good thing that Guangyang City was still holding on, but it also meant that when they passed through Guangyang City, they had to pass through the main troops of the two princes.
