Chapter 189 Fengan City has changed.

After thinking about it, the two of them were still confused, and in the end they still treated Luo Feiyao according to the original conspiracy theory.

Zhao Yan was confused when he cared, and the more he thought about the Kong family, the more annoyed he became.

In the past two days in Xialin Village, I deliberately did not mention the Kong family and forced myself not to think too much.

But now Luo Feiyao's words made her heart stir up again.

Gritting her teeth, she looked at Huang An and said:

"No, we two can't sit still and wait for death. I will write a letter of divorce and ask Xiaocao to send it to Youzhou to my sister and father. By the way, I can find out what Kong Zheng means."

It was obvious that Zhao Yan was anxious.

She is not in Youzhou City now, and has little information. She basically knows nothing. She is afraid that something bad will happen between her and her junior brother.

No matter how calm a woman is, she will eventually lose her sense of proportion when facing the one she loves and the possibility of losing her loved one.

And isn’t this the fascinating part of love?

Huang An looked at the eager Senior Sister Zhao and felt inexplicably relieved.

With Senior Sister Zhao by his side, he has nothing to fear except death.

He smiled, and then nodded in agreement with Senior Sister Zhao's beautiful eyes looking for advice.

Originally, the two of them planned to discuss the issue of personnel allocation, but now Zhao Yan was in a hurry to write a letter, so the two of them left in a hurry.

Luo Feiyao's not participating in the affairs of Youzhou has both advantages and disadvantages.

But overall, it's a good thing.

The people in those three hundred households are basically elite soldiers and generals, although the ordinary soldiers may have a very bad life, often with a sad face and a weak body.

But those military officers should live a very nourishing life.

There are a lot of things to do when we go to Feng'an City, but as long as we don't fail in terms of force, everything will be solved easily.

What Huang An and Zhao Yan value is the strength of the warriors in these three hundred households, but the strength in numbers.

Although there are fifteen Bronze Skin Realm warriors, and although Huang An's cultivation is only at the Six Fu Realm, Huang An and Zhao Yan are still very confident in the discipline of this group of people.

The three hundred households are all regular security forces belonging to the Firearms Department, and are fully deployed by the Chief of the Firearms Department.

These three 100-household offices belong to the same 1000-household office, and are considered to be the regular forces deployed by the imperial court for the Youzhou Firearms Department.

This Qianhu Station is stationed in a camp outside Youzhou City and usually has tasks.

They would rotate into the city to guard the Yamen of the Firearms Department, as well as the most important warehouses and factories outside the city.

Zhao Yan is the beloved daughter of the Firearms Director and the Lord of Feng'an City, so it's too late for these people to fawn over her.

As for Huang An, the relationship between him and Zhao Yan is no secret. As the only valued disciple of the firearms master, these people naturally recognize Huang An.

You would choose to go against him only if your head is dizzy.

When they deployed their men in the square below today, the warriors treated Huang An with more respect.

It can be seen from this.

As long as these officers can be obedient, Huang An and Zhao Yan will be confident that they can clean up the mess in Feng'an City.

These ordinary soldiers under his command must have been oppressed by their superiors.

They are nominally the imperial army, but in reality they can be classified as private soldiers or even military slaves.

If the previous head of the firearms department had not been suddenly transferred, the situation of these military households might have been even more miserable.

I heard that among the border troops, there are already generals and other important figures who have begun to betray their military households to foreigners.

These ordinary soldiers all have sad faces and protruding cheekbones. They have become accustomed to having their rations deducted from them just by looking at them.

Their physical state and mental outlook are similar to the mental state and physical state of ordinary personal guards when Huang An first accepted his personal guards.

Their military careers were extremely miserable.

Although Huang An felt pity for them, he also knew that pity was useless. These people were just donkeys, and they could only take one step with a whip.

Their subjective initiative is very poor, and the quality of their work is difficult to guarantee.

They work in secret, cheating and cheating, which is the true portrayal of how they do things.

That is to say, he is not good at work, but his first priority is eating.

But in Huang An's opinion, this situation is not a problem at all.

With the experience of subduing more than 200 of his personal guards and completely changing their appearance, Huang An was very confident and allowed these guys to complete the tasks of him and Senior Sister Zhao as required.

Even let them take the initiative to work and do a good job.

It is enough to give them enough money to prevent them from being exploited and oppressed by their superiors.

What ordinary soldiers want is simple, nothing more.

A big stick in one hand and money in the other are the only magic weapons to conquer these low-level soldiers.

Huang An has always seen things clearly.

What I need is their loyalty and obedience, but what these people want is to have enough food to eat and to be able to earn money.

There is no conflict of interest between the two. The two are naturally the most compatible leaders and subordinates.

The two went back faster. Zhao Yan asked Huang An to grind. She found paper, then took the paper and pen and started writing.

I wrote eloquently for more than half an hour, basically including all my questions and speculations.

While the ink-printed letter paper was drying, Zhao Yan called Xiaocao, who had already fallen asleep but was not yet asleep.

After giving instructions for a while, she sent Xiaocao away after the ink was completely dry.

This letter was more important. Zhao Yan didn't trust anyone else, so he could only ask Xiaocao to go to Youzhou City in person and hand the envelope to his father or sister.

Of course, Xiaocao will not go to Youzhou City alone, nor will she go straight to Youzhou City after getting up tomorrow.

She needs to wait for time. She does not have the ability to go to Youzhou alone. Zhao Yan and Huang An will not rest assured and let her follow the team of outsiders to deliver messages to Youzhou City.

The escort team just set off this morning, and it is estimated that it will take at least five days before the team brought by Yu Mao leaves.

At that time, Xiaocao would join the escort team and deliver the envelope to the Zhao Mansion in the city.

Before Huang An leaves tomorrow morning, he will mention this to Yang Chengwu and ask him to wait for Brother Yu to come back and take Xiaocao there to tell him.

Huang An was quite speechless about such a sluggish way of transmitting information within the Ming Dynasty.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! One hundred and twenty miles away, in my hometown, a phone call can be communicated in half a day even without a phone.

But in the Ming Dynasty, especially in Youzhou where the traffic conditions are extremely bad, it actually takes two days.

No matter how much I regret it, there is nothing I can do about it.

The road is not easy to walk, and bandits are rampant, so it would be nice to be able to pick up and deliver the letter safely.

Zhao Yan was used to this slow communication method, so he didn't think it was strange.

The two put away their pen and ink, and then put away the tea cups and other things on the stone tables in the house and outside the yard, then separated and went back to their houses to sleep.

At 6:30 a.m. on the second day, the team was ready to go.

Before heading from the cottage to the square below, Huang An revealed Xiaocao's message to Yang Chengwu and asked him to bring some snacks.

Yang Chengwu didn't ask any further questions and directly agreed with a pat on his chest.

Crowds gathered at the exit of Xialinzhai Square.

Hundreds of people lined up, looking pretty presentable.

Huang An, Zhao Yan, and Luo Feiyao, all riding tall horses, stood at the front of the team.

Following closely behind them were the hundreds of households from the Bronze Skin Realm, as well as some general flag officers.

Although Yan Long and others are low in cultivation, they are all from Huang An, so they follow these Bronze Skin Realm warriors.

There is a clear distinction between the two sides.

Everything that needs to be explained has been explained, and they will set off immediately.

After waving Yang Chengwu and others who were coming down the mountain to see them off, Huang An shouted and the team set off slowly, speeding up gradually.

Fen County is only a few hundred miles away from Feng'an County.

Although there are many people, they are all soldiers after all. They often do private work for the superiors, and no matter how poor their physical strength is, they are not much different.

Moreover, Huang An's cafeteria provided breakfast last night and today.

These people have had two full meals and now their legs and feet are strong.

In addition, I knew that I could have enough to eat by following Mr. Zhao Yan and Mr. Huang An, so I was in a good mood and deliberately wanted to perform well so as not to starve in the next two months, so the speed on the road could still be guaranteed.

Ox carts, horse-drawn carriages and other baggage hauling grain were always in the center of the team.

There was a small team dedicated to transporting grain, smiling and pushing the carts.

These food supplies were not brought from Youzhou, but were kindly sponsored by Master Huang An.

It was given to them from Lord Huang An's personal pocket.

Huang An's little trick is just to win people's hearts.

It can be seen all the way that the effect is really good.

With two full meals and less than ten carts of grain, he gained the goodwill and initial loyalty of the grassroots soldiers in these three hundred-household camps. This deal was a very good deal.

Although this hundred-mile-long mountain road cannot be compared with the straight official road, let alone the flat and wide Xialinzhai Mountain Road, it is still relatively easy to walk.

Along the way, everyone went over mountains and ridges, and there was less luggage, so the speed was very fast.

The bandits who were lying in ambush along the way were ready to attack pedestrians at any time. When they saw the large army coming, they were so frightened that they peeed and ran away.

They really didn't expect that an army of more than 300 people would unexpectedly appear on this mountain road that had never seen large numbers of troops.

Simply outrageous.

It should be to Feng'an City, right?

These people are not stupid, and their guesses are very accurate.

When it was close to five o'clock in the evening, the sun had not yet set, and Huang An and others had already arrived at the gate of Feng'an City.

When I arrived at Feng'an City this time, no one came to greet me.

Moreover, they were blocked outside the city gate and unable to enter.

Hundreds of households in the team stood up, yelled at the defenders at the city gate, and shouted for the door to be opened.

The soldiers who had been walking below for a long time also started shouting and joining in.

The discipline of this team needs to be improved.

The city gate was closed tightly, and the two disheveled defenders above cautiously poked their heads to ask questions.

"Come, who is coming? Hurry, report your identity quickly, and order the army!"

Although the two of them were afraid, they knew the disastrous consequences of opening the city gate indiscriminately, so they took advantage of the arrival of the guard general to delay as much as possible.

These two people are not idiots, they still remember their responsibilities.

Huang An and the other three were waiting at the foot of the city, silently watching the farce in front of them.

After a while, the guard finally arrived.

After Zhao Yan took out his official seal, vouchers, and the withholding orders of the three hundred households, the defenders looked at them, then climbed down the city wall, personally led a few of his men, and opened the city gate.

The team guarding the city, led by the captain, stood guard on both sides of the city gate, so scared that they did not even dare to breathe.

They were so bold that they dared to block Mr. Zhao outside the city.

Moreover, Mr. Zhao has become the Lord of Feng'an City. Why was there no news at all beforehand?

Isn't this too low-key?

The most important thing is, when Mr. Zhao took office, why did he bring so many troops into the city?

Feng'an City has changed!

As the captain of the guard, his body was shaking like chaff and his face was pale.

The drunkenness had long since disappeared.

Because his family is a wealthy family in the city.

Now that Master Zhao Yan has suddenly arrived in Feng'an County with his army, he must be coming with bad intentions.

They are going to be in trouble and need to report the news to the clan immediately!
