Chapter 383: Disaster Strikes

The cheers of the people soon sounded on the street, and when they were about to walk out of the gate of Fuzhou, the people on the street were already shouting neatly, "Fuzhou is safe". Wen Qiao, who heard this voice, turned his head and took a look, although almost all of these people in Linzhou have nothing to do with Fuzhou, but when the national disaster is at hand, although they haven't done anything, these words still make people's hearts feel warm.

They went out of the Linzhou City Gate smoothly, and a team of people and horses all walked forward in an orderly manner. They weren't fast, and the sound of the wheels of the wagons was ringing all around. No one spoke, and no one called. Wen Qiao and Zhang Xinzhi are okay, they rushed to Linzhou yesterday and rested for a night.

But these soldiers in front of him had all rushed from the capital day and night. But at this time, the matter of the flood in Fuzhou is related to the lives of all the people in Fuzhou, and Wen Qiao does not dare to delay it easily. Fortunately, the distance between the two places is not far, as long as they rush to Fuzhou, these soldiers can rest for a while.

When these grains arrived, they also solved the living problems of the people in Fuzhou. They will not have the previous worries when they solve the flood. A group of people hurried for half a day without saying a word, seeing that the sun was about to sink in the west again.

Zhang Xinzhi, who was a little behind Wen Qiao, sped up the speed of the horse under his crotch and rushed to Wen Qiao's side to be in parallel with him. Wen Qiao turned his head to look at him, and just turned around, he heard Zhang Xinzhi's voice beside him, "Brother Wen, this is also a long time to go, do you want to rest for a while before leaving?"

Zhang Xinzhi's voice is still the same as his previous voice, and the warm voice makes people feel that the boredom and heat in their hearts have also decreased a little.

Listening to Zhang Xinzhi's words, Wen Qiao quickly thought for a while, and then he called out to the soldiers in front of him, "Pass the order, and the whole army will repair in place!" The soldier who heard the words passed Wen Qiao's order to the next person, and just like this, the whole team quickly stopped.

Although Wen Qiao was in a hurry, he also knew that no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't force these soldiers to continue walking. Take a short break and eat another meal to replenish your body's energy, so that the rest of the journey can go more smoothly.

The place where they stopped was also well chosen, both sides were under the cliffs, one side was the road to Fuzhou, and the other side had no way back, and there was a very steep hill below. A flat area of land allowed the soldiers to temporarily stop the wagon.

The team was carrying pots for cooking, Wen Qiao gave the order, and soon some soldiers built a few simple earthen stoves, set up pots, and went to the neighborhood to pick up dry firewood and clean water. This is still in the wilderness, and the soldiers can only cook a little food and eat a simple meal.

Wen Qiao and Zhang Xinzhi sat together and watched these busy soldiers, Wen Qiao didn't know how Zhang Xinzhi was, but looking at these soldiers, he suddenly had a feeling that he was back in the barracks. Then he couldn't help but think of the days when he was stationed outside Zhao Qingyan Zhuangzi before.

During that time, without Mrs. Cheng's obstruction, Wen Qiao thought about it carefully, and was shocked to realize that it might be the most ordinary and happy period of time he got along with Zhao Qingyan. Zhao Qingyan's three words made Wen Qiao's heart ache, and he shook his head violently, forcing himself not to think about it.

He's been so busy these days that he has little to no free time. He also didn't want to let himself have free time, otherwise he would think about Zhao Qingyan uncontrollably, the picture when he got along with her, the words he said to her, and his smile.

Then I thought of the rumors that the kid had told me about the Calamity. The others were not in the capital, and they did not dare to determine whether the rumors were true or not.

Wen Qiao simply got up and walked among the soldiers. When the soldiers saw him coming, they laughed and called him General. Although Wen Qiao is a strict general, he has always rewarded and punished his soldiers, and these soldiers are his cronies, so he doesn't feel like ordinary soldiers.

These soldiers were not afraid of him, they had only respect and convincing him. Wen Qiao grabbed around, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Why did His Majesty send you here this time?" You must know that these soldiers are all meritorious, Fuzhou confirmed, but it is not them who should be called.

The most lacking thing in the army is not soldiers, not to mention that there is no war to fight in the DPRK, it is good to call a team of men and horses in the barracks, it is really overkill to call them here.

A soldier listened to Wen Qiao's words and replied directly: "How do we know? That Lord Jiang came directly with His Majesty's holy decree that day, and besides, this time I still came to help the general, so we will follow him!" At first glance, I couldn't find anything wrong with this passage, but Wen Qiao still keenly caught a few keywords from it.

He frowned, suddenly realizing that this matter was not as simple as the soldier seemed to be. He asked with an unpredictable expression, "Is it Jiang Cheng who called you to the barracks?"

The soldier who spoke nodded and said, "Yes, he has a holy decree in his hand, and Vice General Cui has seen it with his own eyes, so we followed out of the capital."

Jiang Cheng was only the official in charge of escorting the grain and grass this time, and the accompanying soldiers were generally either selected by the emperor himself, or the officials in charge went to the military department to do the handover. The soldiers under Wen Qiao did not belong to the military department, but were in charge of it himself.

If it was dispatched by the military department, it would be absolutely impossible to transfer these people under him. His brain exploded, and only then did he realize that something was wrong. He walked briskly to the carriage, and this time ordered the soldiers to open all the sacks containing grain and grass.

"General!" A soldier shouted at him in a frightened tone, Wen Qiao walked over to take a look, and was almost stunned by the picture in front of him. "Quick!" He shouted, gestured to everyone, and shouted, "Everyone go back!" After he finished speaking, he walked to Zhang Xinzhi's side and grabbed his arm, trying to arrest the person.

At this time, there was a sudden rumbling sound around him, Wen Qiao turned his head with round eyes, but before he could react, a large amount of dust and dust and gravel flew towards him. It's too late to leave.

Screams soon rang out one after another, mixed with the sound of the mountain breaking, as if the whole sky was about to fall. At the moment of the disaster, there was no hurry to dodge at all, Wen Qiao followed the escape instinct and jumped to the side with the person in front of him!

He snorted in pain, and then felt what seemed to be a soldier's warm liquid flowing from his forehead. He dimly felt that he should be running water, and Zhang Xinzhi's voice under him had a flustered tone that was different from that of the usual stars, "Brother Wen!"

Wen Qiao had a sharp pain on his body, he reluctantly opened his eyes, and saw Zhang Xinzhi with a gray face at this time. He gritted his teeth, tentatively moved one of his arms under the weight of the weight, and asked him, "Are you alright?" ”
