"It turns out that the piece of jade that Fan Gongzi has been hanging on his waist before was actually given by Mrs. Fan, no wonder it looks extraordinary at a glance." Yan Xiucheng complimented.

"This group of refugees actually stole such a precious thing, it is really bold, Gongzi rest assured, Xiu Cheng will arrange manpower and swear to recover Yujue, and you will not be disappointed."

Fan Yongdou hung on his waist Yujue, which was given by his grandmother, and he didn't want to be stolen by someone, so when he found out, he only caught Da Li and his wife, who were a man and a woman.

The thieves were told that they were the work of a group of refugees outside the city, but they had fled north with the large group of refugees.

Fan Yongdou admitted that he had too few people, and he was afraid that he would not be able to please the large number of refugees, so he came to ask for help.

This is Fan Yongdou's words with Yan Xiucheng after he sat down in the hall.

And Yan Xiucheng couldn't help but sigh with emotion after listening to it, and expressed his determination to resolutely serve Fan Yongdou, as for whether this statement is true or not, he doesn't have to care, he can't miss it if he has the opportunity to befriend this eldest son of the Fan family.

The only thing to worry about is the refugees who have gone north, it is said that there are quite a few people, and the number of people who go to pursue them must be carefully considered, there are fewer people, there is a lack of deterrence, and I am afraid that they are not opponents, and there are too many people, and it is bound to weaken the defense force of Yanjia Village.

"In that case, I thanked Xiu Cheng first." Fan Yongdou sat on the chair and arched his hands, "I don't know how many people Xiu Cheng plans to arrange?" ”

That set of rhetoric was improvised by him on the way to Yanjia Village, and for this reason, he specially hid the piece of jade that had been "stolen".

Fan Yongdou didn't care whether Yan Xiu was honest or not, as long as he was willing to help with all his might.

"One hundred people, all on horseback, how does Fan Gongzi see such an arrangement?" Yan Xiucheng asked, this hundred people was already the largest number of people he could draw.

"Then..., it won't affect the defense of Yanjia Village, right?" What made Yan Xiu sincere was that Fan Yongdou actually cared about the safety of Yanjia Village, which was very rare.

"Gongzi Xie cares, there are still two hundred people left in the village, and they were supposed to take turns on duty, but before recovering your Yujue, Xiu Cheng plans to let them all go to the city wall to defend it, in this case, the manpower is barely enough."

"Please also ask Xiu Cheng to tell those 100 people to hide their whereabouts as much as possible after leaving the village, if the local snake in Puzhou finds out, the remaining 200 people may not be able to keep it."

Hearing this, Yan Xiucheng understood that Fan Yongdou cared about Yanjia Village, but about his own safety, he was afraid that Zhou Chengyun and others would see the reality of Yanjia Village, so they would take advantage of the situation and threaten his Fan Yongdou's personal safety.

"Fan Gongzi is too worried." Yan Xiucheng despised Fan Yongdou's guts in his heart, but he didn't break it on his lips, and then said, "Zhou Chengyun is no longer in the Jinnan area at the moment, and those two old guys have to go into battle in person to supervise the production of manganese.

At this time, it is unlikely that anyone will notice us. ”

When Fan Yongdou heard this, his heart felt a lot more relaxed, don't look at his arrogance and domineering when he was in the Pujie Chamber of Commerce, he looked like no one in his eyes, in fact, he was very jealous of Zhou Chengyun.

Several times the business that was captured was killed by Zhou Chengyun halfway and robbed Hu, I really don't know how Zhou Chengyun found out those trade secrets.

Fan Yongdou was happy when he heard this, and there are such good things? In that case, give it a go.

"Xiucheng, I have a guard under my hand, riding a horse and archery, all of them, especially good at tracking, but this person can't speak Chinese well, I'll send another guard as a translator, just let them go together, I can't do it at all."

Fan Yongdou sent his strongest guards out, and wanted to take this opportunity to attack with all his might.

"In this case, wouldn't there be fewer people to protect you, Xiu Cheng is afraid."

"It's okay," Fan Yongdou pretended to smile generously, "Since it's in your Yanjia Village, then you are in charge, I believe you." ”

......

Dingguo frowned, looking at the extremely long line behind him, this advance is really too slow, at this speed, he may not be able to catch up with that caravan tonight.

The orphans and themselves were trained, not slow, and always at the forefront, while the refugees were not flattering in speed, dragging their feet, forming a long tail behind them.

Fleeing has always been like this before, and I didn't feel any inconvenience, but this time I had to hurry, and this kind of scene was a little intolerable to Dingguo.

"Brother Zhi, why don't we go first and let them come slowly?" Dingguo proposed.

"It doesn't have to be this way." The speed of progress is too slow, Zhiwen has already realized it, but he just took more than a hundred teenagers to threaten and force the caravan of more than 200 people to sell manganese to them, is it appropriate?

If they didn't meet each other, the caravan would definitely not act obediently as Zhiwen wanted, but if they used swords and guns for this matter, so that both sides suffered casualties as a result, Zhiwen felt that it was not worth it.

But as long as more than 2,000 people surround this caravan, I believe that the other party will make the best choice with this momentum alone.

"Lao Li, pass the word, let everyone hurry at full speed, if we arrive at the destination, the people who arrive within half an hour will be rewarded with one or two taels of food each." Zhiwen felt that it was not that the refugees did not have good foot strength, but that they were accustomed to the way they dragged out in the past.

Now take out some food as a reward, stimulate it, and I believe that they will move forward as if they were beaten with chicken blood.

Sure enough, not long after Li Zhi conveyed Zhiwen's words, the refugees who followed them were like a swarm of bees chasing after them.

The long line shortened and began to crowd, and the refugees could barely keep up with Zhiwen and them.

At this rate, according to the information from the front of the horse, it should be possible to catch up with the caravan before dark.

Seeing that Zhiwen used such a simple method to solve the problem of hurrying with only more than 200 catties of grain, Dingguo admired it tightly.

When it was close to noon, Dingguo came to ask again: "Brother Zhi, should you eat some dry food for lunch and continue to hurry, or do you want to make some hot food on the fire?" ”

"Let's eat something hot." Zhiwen thought for a moment and said.

The people of the caravan are all walking outside all the year round, walking on the muddy land after the snow, and they must also be very eager to eat a hot meal, not in a hurry, and second, to replenish their strength.

Dingguo nodded and went to pass the word.

"Huh...", Xiao Lin and the others reined in the carriage and began to look for a vacant land, preparing to make a fire for cooking.

Dacheng unloaded a bag of grain from the carriage, and when he was about to open the grain bag, "Don't move! A loud shout suddenly came from the side, and at the same time, a hand was stretched out and squeezed Dacheng's hands.

"Don't make a fuss, you have to cook." Dacheng said, he knew this person, but the subordinates that Wang had just received two days ago had somehow come here from the front.

As soon as Dacheng raised his hand, he pushed the person who held his hand away, he also practiced internal skills and was quite effective, this young man was not his opponent.

Who knew that this person was like kraft candy, after taking a few steps back, he ran up again, Xu felt that he didn't have enough strength, so he simply lay on top of the sack, just didn't let Dacheng open the bag.
