Chapter 250: That Smile

After the two left, Xu Chen said to Lao Zhoukang again: "At present, we have more than 300 people in our hands, except for the villagers on Peng Ze's side, most of them are orphans, but I am afraid that there are many people like Chen Yu, these people should be treated differently, and those who are willing to go with us sincerely will take them with them, as for people like Chen Yu who drag their families and have an unknown background, forget it!" When the land was contested, Wan Shijun suddenly had a large amount of cultivated land in his hands, and in the battle of Wuyue Town yesterday, the news came back that Wanjia had mobilized more than 2,000 heavily armed elite soldiers, and these people were probably people from villages like Chenjia Village!"

Zhou Kang replied: "Okay, big brother, don't worry, I will remove the sand from the team!"

Xu Chen nodded, and after the fourth child went out, he said to Lu Hao: "Yuzhang's industry can be sold, and if it can't be sold, leave it to those guys who don't want to leave!"

"And the base in Donghu will also be demolished, and the arrangements made in advance can now be used! This time Wan Shijun destroyed Zhou Gang, I expect that he will definitely direct a good play for the court in the next few days, and we just follow his play to erase our traces!"

Lu Hao nodded and replied, "Okay! I'll do it right away!"

After Lu Hao also left, Xu Chen said to Chai Lao beside him: "Peng Ze should go to Chai Lao's side! Gather those villagers who are willing to leave, and as for those who are unwilling to leave their hometowns, distribute some silver taels to them to settle down!"

"Okay, son, the old slave will do it!" Chai Lao said respectfully.

After Xu Chen's order was issued, the teenagers took action one after another.

As orphans, the teenagers naturally have no family to say goodbye to, just pack up some personal belongings and wait for the day of departure. After all, compared to the days when the family was barely satisfied, they could eat and drink well every day at the eldest brother's place, and they could read and write, which was simply unthinkable, so how could they give up!

The teenagers couldn't explain it to them clearly, so they didn't bother to explain it!

However, Zhou Kang's clean-up operation is progressing slowly, after all, they are all brothers who have been together for half a year, but now they are going to give up on them, Zhou Kang is somewhat reluctant, but when he thinks of the enemy that his eldest brother will face, he has to be ruthless and clean up the unstable factors in the team.

After a difficult process, Zhou Kang finally completed the cleanup before the teenagers left.

Looking at Chen Yu's grief-stricken expression when he left, Zhou Kang was speechless for a long time.

"Brother Song Qing, why do you want to drive Xiao Yuzi away! Can you not let him go? Why don't you go and talk to the fourth brother and beg him to leave Xiao Yuzi behind!"

After all, they are still young people, and the teammate who went home with Chen Yu to visit relatives last time didn't understand why the fourth brother wanted to drive Chen Yu back, they had been together for a long time, and the friendship between them was already very deep, and seeing Chen Yu's painful parting at this moment, he naturally couldn't help but want to keep it.

It's just that Song Qing is the one who went to the backyard room, so he naturally understands the intentions of the eldest brother, and although he can't bear it in his heart, he has to give up Chen Yu for the sake of the overall situation.

"Okay, the fourth brother naturally has the reason for the fourth brother to do this, Chen Yu is not an orphan like us, he has parents and relatives at home who need him to be filial, the ancients said, 'Parents are here, don't travel far'! If he leaves, who will do his filial piety for him?" Song Qing said solemnly.

No matter how painful parting is, what should be gone will eventually go!

Although most of the teenagers are orphans who wander the world, after all, they have stayed in Yuzhang City for a long time, and they inevitably have some feelings for this city. In these days, Xu Chen gave everyone a half-day off, so that the big guys could have time to say goodbye to their past, because once they leave today, they will embark on an unpredictable road, a road that no one has ever walked before!

Of course, when the young people lingered in Yuzhang City, they did not forget to say to all the people they knew well: "Our eldest brother's teacher has become a big official in the capital! Now we are all going to Chang'an to join his old man!"

Poor Xu Fan, who was far away in Chang'an, was used by his unscrupulous apprentice again!

After saying goodbye, the teenagers chose to leave quietly in the middle of the night.

Some dragged their families, but the small number of men and sailors had already gathered with the large army to Changshan Island. Now there are only more than ten people left around Xu Chen in the Qiushui Square outside Yuzhang City, strolling quietly in the square that Xu Chen single-handedly operated.

"Hey, who! What kind of wheel are you talking about? This girl came to see it today!" a crisp female voice sounded.

Xu Chen looked back and saw a girl with flowing clothes walking towards him, but it was Yang Ziyun who had a relationship with the Shangyuan Lantern Festival!

Xu Chen looked at her with a smile and said, "You're a little late!"

Yang Ziyun walked up to Xu Chen and said, "There is something going on at home, it's too late!

Xu Chen said with a smile: "It's a Ferris wheel! You came by chance, it was just built a few days ago, and you are the first guest tonight!"

"Really?" the girl smiled, as dazzling as a pearl in the night, and Xu Chen was slightly fascinated when she saw it.

"Of course!" Xu Chen came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Go, start the Ferris wheel!"

Immediately a few people ran forward to operate, there was no electricity in this era, and the Ferris wheel could only rely on water power, but fortunately, it was on the edge of the Ganshui River, and the water power was sufficient. In fact, the so-called Ferris wheel is just a larger waterwheel, but it is a little stronger.

"Please!" Xu Chen opened the wooden door of the living room and said to the girl very gentlemanly.

The girl smiled and nodded, and walked in first, and then Xu Chen also walked in.

The huge wheels began to rotate slowly, the wooden guest room slowly rose into the air, and the gorgeous glass lanterns on the main pole of the Ferris wheel were emitting bright light in the dark night, full of colors, like a dream.

The guest room is not big, there is not much space after two people on the left and one on the right sit down, and the young men and girls sit facing each other, and the distance between them is very close.

"You're leaving?" the girl was the first to break the silence.

"Yes!" Xu Chen replied lightly.

The girl nodded noncommittally and turned her gaze out of the guest room. At this time, the guest room has gradually risen, and on the Ferris wheel nearly ten zhang high, the girl looked at the hazy night in the distance, and asked with a calm expression: "What are you doing here?"

Xu Chen looked at the girl's tranquil side face, and some strange feelings were growing in his heart, so he had to cover it with a smile, and said, "Watch a play!"

The girl turned her head, looked at him, and said, "Find someone!"

Xu Chen looked at her with both eyes, smiled, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the Yuzhang city wall not far away, and said, "The play has begun!"

Today's Qiushui Square is empty! No! It should be said that today's Yuzhang City has long since closed its gates, and the current posture of the great enemy!

The play rehearsed by Wan Shijun has finally been staged!

Thousands of sturdy men dressed in messy clothes, dressed up as water bandits one after another, and operated hundreds of large and small boats, and had already surrounded Yuzhang City!

The strange thing is that these people don't seem to notice the huge ship that radiates brilliant light by the city wall, and they just confront each other.

The person sent by Wan Shijun to command is Luo Bin, Luo Bin is naturally familiar with Xu Chen's group of teenagers, they are just ordered to come to perform a play tonight, in order to give an explanation to the people of Yuzhang City and the court in Chang'an, so it is naturally not appropriate to cause more trouble.

As early as a few days ago, the Taishou Mansion received the news that a large number of water bandits would come to attack the city tonight, and then ordered the commander "Zhou Gang" to transfer troops into the city to defend it.

Yuzhang City was also closed two days ago, and no one was allowed to enter or leave!

Of course, Xu Chen doesn't count! With Wan Shijun's order, how could the "sergeant" guarding the door not open the door when he saw Xu Chen? This is also the reason why Xu Chen chose to leave late at night, after all, the relationship with Wan Jia is not bad now, and it is not beneficial for him to blatantly sabotage the other party's plan.

Suddenly, the two sides of the silent confrontation began to move!

I saw that the "sergeants" on the city wall began to beat the war drums, and the "water bandits" outside the city wall also began to shout and shout, so a lively and extraordinary siege scene!

Subsequently, the two sides held knives in their left hands and guns in their right hands, opened their bows left and right, and collided vigorously, making a piercing metal impact!

Then, there began to be a mournful wail up and down the city wall, accompanied by the sound of wailing, a corpse that had been dead for a long time and was unrecognizable began to fall from the city wall, and then a rain of burning arrows shot towards these corpses, "bang", the flames ignited quickly, and the corpses easily burned.

Immediately afterwards, a larger scale of rockets was fired at the city wall, and the pre-prepared fire oil on the city wall was quickly ignited, and in the raging fire, the "sergeants" fought bravely in the flames.

The people hiding at home in Yuzhang City in the distance, through the gap in the window, clearly saw this scene in their eyes and remembered it in their hearts!

Together, Xu Chen also smiled, and then, to the east of Yuzhang City, in the direction of East Lake, there was also a sky-high fire!

"It turns out that the bandits are not only attacking from the west!" this is the thought of the people of Yuzhang.

The girl also saw this scene, so she asked, "You did it?"

Xu Chen nodded and said, "I left some tails, and now I have dealt with it!"

"And what about this Ferris wheel?" asked the girl.

"Wait a minute, it will be burned clean by the bandits!" Xu Chen replied.

The girl was silent, the feeling of climbing high and looking into the distance made her a little nostalgic, and she strongly hoped that this feeling could continue, but this feeling made her instinctively afraid, afraid that something would change with it!

But I didn't know that some things had quietly changed as early as the moment we met!

The girl solemnly said to Xu Chen: "My name is Yang Ziyun!"

Xu Chen looked at the girl, the smile on his face gradually faded, and he said solemnly: "My name is Xu Chen!"

When they looked at each other and smiled, some hazy things took root in the hearts of young boys and girls......
