"Can't find it!" A special investigator shouted from the bottom of the mountain towards the mountainside, "There is no camp at the bottom of the mountain!" ”

"There is no near the camp either!" Not far away, someone shouted from the stream, "Not at the foot of the mountain!" ”

"Meow a mi, I'm in trouble now!" Yang Muqin, who was standing at the checkpoint halfway up the mountain, shook his hand a little annoyed, "If she runs away, I don't know how much news of us will be leaked to the enemy." ”

Liu Yeqiang took off his glasses and wiped the fog on them, "Yes, I only missed her, and I don't know how this guy Lancao audited the personnel, and he didn't find such a big hidden pile inserted in the middle of us, why don't we send someone to search the nearby woods?" ”

"Don't do it!" There was a slightly weak shout from the trail, Liu Yeqiang and Yang Muqin turned their heads to look, it turned out that two naturalized people were carrying a stretcher and carefully descending from the path, and it was Lu Qi who was lying on the stretcher, "Don't go into the woods!" ”

"Why?" "Why did you get down?"

"I'm sure I won't be able to come down if I don't come down," said Luffy, "there's news on the radio up there, and I can't read the record in the telegraph, so I'll have to go up." And it's noon, and if you send a special investigation team into the woods to search, it's tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. ”

Sun Qiu is not affectionate, and he learns from Mo Yuenuo

"But just let this spy run away?" Yang Muqin still looked annoyed and said, "This is a shame that the special investigation team has never had!" ”

"Run away, run away!" Lu Qi said helplessly, "The airships that came to pick up us are already on the way, and it is estimated that they will arrive tonight or tomorrow during the day, and such a small spy can't do much." What is the best she can do? It's just to summon the army of a nearby city, it takes at least two days to walk from here to Xiangyang, and it's even farther to Xinye, and there are no villages nearby, so it's useless to find Xiangyong. Even if she is a flash and can rush to Xiangyang immediately, and even if Xiangyang's army can mobilize immediately to attack us, it will take at least two to three days for the army to arrive here. ”

"It's also ......" Liu Yeqiang couldn't help but rub his temples that were a little painful and said, "Okay, shrink the defense, restore the third-level combat readiness, and let the people who went out to search come back." ”

"Well, okay." Yang Muqin nodded and ran towards the mountain, but he didn't go to find a walkie-talkie, but to beat the drum to prepare for war. Walkie-talkies are good, but radio transmission is easily limited in the woods, so it is not the best choice, compared to the large drum on the top of the mountain, the effect is much better, the high position allows the sound to travel far away, basically within a kilometer, anyway, the distance of the special reconnaissance team searching nearby at the moment will not be more than a kilometer.

Soon there was a rhythmic drum beat on the top of the mountain, and the special investigators outside heard the drum and couldn't help but be stunned, "Give up searching?" "A quick return to camp?" Although they were all puzzled by the order, they quickly returned to the camp.

"Huh? What is that? Lu Qi suddenly pointed to the treetops in the distance and seemed to find something, and quickly asked. Liu Yeqiang looked over, couldn't see clearly, took the telescope handed over by the naturalized people around him, and looked closely, it turned out to be a person running all the way from the treetops to this side of the mountain. "Oh, it turned out to be Bluegrass, he's back."

Lan Cao was not in the camp for half a month, because of his outstanding ability to survive in the wild and his terrible reconnaissance ability, he went to Xinye alone to survey the route and check the current situation in Henan. At this time in the history of the Old World, drought had already begun in Henan, Hebei, Shaanxi and other places, causing large areas of arable land to be unharvested, and a large number of farmers without food fled to nearby prefectures and counties, leading to a wave of refugees. But after traveling to the New World, the Senate was not very clear about the damage caused in northern China in 1629, and they needed to understand the situation in order to make countermeasures.

In the history of the old world, the peasants in North China can be described as extremely miserable, due to the slow response of the Ming Dynasty government, the refugees had nothing to eat, they were exploited along the way, killed by bandits, and eaten by their children, I don't know how many homeless people starved to death on the way to escape. The large number of corpses caused a widespread epidemic of the Black Death, which eventually led to the extinction of the Ming Dynasty.

After the land, the distant ship hates Mo Gu Jicha

For a Ming Dynasty with a population of almost 200 million, the death of hundreds of thousands of victims in this area is not too terrible, but for the Senate, which still lacks population, these dead populations are rare treasures. Of course, the Senate had selfish motives in this matter, but this proposal was absolutely supported by the vast majority of the senators - the universal values accepted by the old world made the senators feel very sad about the tragic death of other people, not to mention that these people were still their own compatriots, and even their own ancestors, so wouldn't it be better to be able to save them?

As for the resettlement of the population, Yu Sha still stated at the discussion meeting before the departure of the northbound detachment that no matter how many people there are, as long as they can come to Dongfang Port, they will definitely find a way to resettle. These people have been farmers working on the land for generations, and although they have not received education, even in the Oriental Port, they can only accept the most basic ordinary labor work, but now the Oriental Port needs construction manpower, mainly migrant workers, is not what is needed? Urban construction, farmland development, and industrial construction all require a lot of manpower, and even if tens of thousands of people came to the Ito Army, they couldn't see much splashing in the demolition work of Champong Port. Yu Sha is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot for manpower at the moment, and the various departments of the Senate who go to him every day to ask for manpower quotas are like carp crossing the river, which annoys him a lot.

What's more, the war with the Medeno is about to start at this moment, once the war starts, the existing population of tens of thousands in the Eastern Port is simply not enough to fill it, and if there is no new force to join, even the advanced weapons of the Senate will inevitably be defeated in the face of the possible offensive of the Medeno people. Therefore, "fishing for people" has become the biggest task of the Senate, but Yusha is most annoyed by this problem, when he first came to Anyun to establish Dongfang Port, there were displaced people in nearby prefectures and counties, as well as in the north and south of Annan, and the population under the rule of the Senate quickly increased to the current scale of tens of thousands of people. However, in the past few months, the rate of population growth has become as weak as the end of a strong crossbow, especially since December, only sixteen displaced people have come to Dongfang Harbor to take refuge, and ten of these sixteen people are from two lost Tanjia boats, Yu Sha hated to ask people to take nets and lassoes to arrest people along the coast. At this time, the victims were allowed to starve to death on such a large scale on the North China Plain, and he really felt that the Wu Dynasty government was full of men and did not know that hungry men were hungry.

Blue grass also felt quite strange at the moment, the area of this camp was very well chosen, under the cover of the woods, the location of the camp could not be seen at all on several nearby mountains, and although there was a nest on the top of the mountain, it was also carefully camouflaged, and it was impossible to see clearly without walking within a hundred meters. But now the sound of the drums in his ears made the soldiers who heard it quickly return to the camp and give up the search - what to search for? Is there such a powerful tracker? How can you even find such a hidden camp?

He is an elf as light as a swallow - this is actually very irresponsible, he has almost no weight, the weight of his whole body is mainly concentrated on the equipment on his body, and the total weight of his body is only no more than ten kilograms, although this weight is said to be impossible to float on the water by stepping on leaves, but there is no problem at all in running on the branches in the treetops.

"Vice-Captain Bluegrass!" Someone below began to shout, and Bluegrass stopped, standing on a branch and looking down, it turned out to be a sergeant from the special reconnaissance team, and the sergeant beckoned to him. At this beckoning moment, Bluegrass learned from his memory what had happened in the past few days.

Blue grass was naturally very happy to be able to return to Dongfang Harbor, not to mention that he had heard that he had returned from heaven. Don't look at his claim that he can fly a kite into the sky with a rope tied around his waist, but he hasn't left the ground like flying, he is actually a little afraid of heights, and he doesn't even dare to go up on the hot air balloon configured by the northbound detachment. This time, he heard that it was an airship that was different from airplanes and hot air balloons, so he was naturally very interested in learning what an airship was, but from his memory, the sergeant didn't know.

But the next news shocked him a little, "What? Ye Yu is a spy? ”

"That's right! She must be a spy! Lu Qi nodded and said in affirmation, "Now the evidence points to her, since she joined, the group of eunuchs has been following us in pursuit, and finally launched an attack on us here, if she is not a spy, I really can't explain this situation." And earlier when we were discussing the spies, she was eavesdropping on the sidelines, and after accidentally knocking over the soup pot and being discovered, she quickly fled down the mountain, and did not go to the camp when she went down the mountain, but disappeared directly into the woods, and now she can't find it. ”

"I really didn't expect her to be a spy!" Yang Muqin said with some regret, "Actually, she is quite a positive and capable girl. ”

Sun Ke is not a ghost, and Sun Chamo is lonely

Sun Ke is not a ghost, Sun Chamo is lonely, and he can't find it!" A special investigator shouted from the bottom of the mountain towards the mountainside, "There is no camp down the mountain!" ”

"Yes," Lin Yueru also echoed on the side, "She is quite smart, many things can be understood at a glance, unlike ordinary naturalized people who have to explain a stupid thing again and again, it's a pity, I plan to wait until I go back to Dongfang Port to send her to study." ”

"That's not right!" Lan Cao said a little strangely, as if talking to herself, "I still probed her thoughts when she first arrived, everything is true, and when Mingzhou originally planned to send her to Dongfang Port, she was also very reluctant, to serve you here, lest you be sent away and abandoned, such a feeling can't be pretended!" ”

Liu Yeqiang nodded silently on the side and said, "I am also inclined to your opinion, Lan Cao is the one who is the most powerful among us, his view of a person is different from ours, and the words that people's hearts are separated from their stomachs are useless to him, and he has already conducted a political trial on Ye Yu when he was in Mingzhou, so there will definitely be no problem." Thoughts are something that a person can't hide, if Ye Yu is really a spy as you say, then how can she deceive Blue Grass from the ideological point of view? If she really has such a skill, then this spy of the Wu Dynasty is too terrifying, right? ”

Yang Muqin and Lu Qi both looked at Liu Yeqiang with some dumbfounded, "You won't be there, right?" It was you who said she was a spy before, and now it is you who says she is not a spy, how do you calculate it? Is it okay to give a charter? ”

"I have a feeling," Liu Yeqiang thought for a moment and said, "Ye Yu is definitely not a spy, her actions should have caught up by chance, even if she really pointed out the direction to those eunuchs, it was also an unconscious move, otherwise it would be impossible to hide from Blue Grass, you must know that she has been with us all this time, it is absolutely impossible to avoid Blue Grass." ”

Lucci nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "And what now?" ”

Liu Yeqiang pointed to the hastily drawn map on the table and said, "I think the top priority is to find her back, let her come back and explain what happened, even if she is really a spy, we can send her to Dongfang Port, we can also cut off her contact with the forces behind her, if it is not a spy, then leave her alone in this place, it is basically very dangerous for her to be a girl's family here." ”

"Then how do you say you want to find it?" Yang Muqin said with a little annoyance, "I've seen it on a hot air balloon before, this forest is more than ten square kilometers, and running into it alone is like a drop of water falling into the sea, and there is no way to find it." ”

After the hatred is not the ghost hate, the war moon and the sun pointed to the ground

"I have a solution," Bluegrass said, standing up, "I'll leave the matter to me." As he spoke, he walked to the edge of the cliff, faced the bottom of the cliff, spread his hands and raised his head to the sky, and closed his eyes, as if he was thinking something. After a while, there was movement in the woods below the cliff, and a flock of black and oppressive birds flew up and fluttered in all directions. The birds flew low above the treetops, as if searching for something.

"What are you?" Liu Yeqiang couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, since he saw the blue grass, this elf has completely disrupted the scientific concept in his head, and the repeated actions of the blue grass made Liu Yeqiang feel that the laws of physics were so weak, in the old world at that time, a popular sentence was "Newton's coffin board can no longer be pressed".

"Oh, I told the birds around here to go to her." Bluegrass said lightly, "I wanted to ask the nearby beasts to look for it, but they were afraid of people, so they didn't want to go. Speaking of this, he turned his head to Yang Mu Qin and said, "We have hunted too many small animals during this time, they are not willing to help us, and you have to let the people below pay attention later, don't hunt birds, maybe they are here to report the news." ”

Speaking of this, Lan Cao took out a digital camera from the backpack next to the nest and said, "By the way, they have gone to find someone, let's take a look at the situation in Henan first." ”

The land is far from being alone, and the enemy is alone
