Chapter 149: Ready to Go
When the two people who were nervously waiting for Lin Hu's reply suddenly heard the answer, they immediately stood up excitedly and thanked them in a hurried tone.
They had to get excited, because they had little food left, and they had no choice but to starve to death.
Lin Hu watched the emotional two constantly thank him, and he was not too proud, but just sat aside with a smile.
After a while, the two finally calmed down, and they began to discuss the details of the operation with Lin Hu.
The destination of this trip is an agricultural town under Qingyang County, which is more than 10 miles away and is the closest town to the county seat, where there is a national grain reserve station, which reserves nearly 2,000 tons of grain under normal circumstances.
If there were no accidents with the food at the stockpile, it would be enough for all the survivors of the entire safe house to consume for three or four years.
Qin Zhongguo and Lu Zijian were excited.
Since they didn't know the specific situation over there, the three of them decided to send a reconnaissance team to investigate the situation first.
The reconnaissance team consisted of Lin Hu sending two squads of knights, and Qin Lu and Qin Lu sending a few guides.
Qin and Lu were the most urgent, and after the discussion, they couldn't wait to ask Lin Hu to send a team to set off immediately, Lin Hu nodded in agreement, so Qin and Lu hurriedly said goodbye and hurried back to gather the guide.
Qin Zhongguo and Lu Zijian hurried back, and did not talk too much on the road, but agreed that each side would send three people, and then they would go back to each house to gather people.
Captain Chen stood on the wall and looked anxiously at the opposite side, and under the wall, more than a dozen people anxiously asked from time to time if they had seen Qin Zhongguo.
At this time, Captain Chen suddenly shouted: "Lao Qin is back!"
"Really?"
"Did he come back alone?"
"Is there anything out of the ordinary?"
Captain Chen didn't pay attention to the inquiries under the wall, just waved his hand to let his mother calm down a little, he stared at Lao Qin's running appearance tightly, and couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart, running so fast, what's wrong? Could it be that the people over there are chasing him? But no one was found behind.
Captain Chen was confused.
Qin Zhongguo ran out of breath and was almost paralyzed, but he was very happy in his heart, and the heavy pressure in his heart seemed to have been released with running, and he was completely relaxed when he just waited for the food to come back.
Ran a short distance under the wall, bent his waist and looked at Captain Chen on the wall, and shouted after trying to take a few breaths.
"Captain Chen, bring two people down!"
Captain Chen looked at Qin Zhongguo, who was bent over and panting under the wall, and hurriedly asked with concern.
"Lao Qin, why are you running so fast? What's going on? What are you doing with two people?"
"Oh, don't talk nonsense, it's done, you bring two people down. ”
Captain Chen was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly turned around and shouted.
"Xiao Ke, Xiao Yang, you two come up. ”
Immediately, two young men climbed up the wall from the crowd under the wall, while the others were already impatiently asking.
"Captain Chen, what's going on?"
"What about the old Qin people?"
"Lao Qin is down there, he said that the matter is done!" Captain Chen replied with a laugh, he was happy in his heart, he finally had hope of living, and his heart was sour when he remembered the bowl of old rice he brought back from the West District the day before yesterday to make his youngest son happy.
When everyone under the wall heard the good news, they all cheered, and the two young men who climbed the wall were also excited.
The three of them climbed down the high wall and walked forward with the panting Qin Zhongguo, constantly asking for news.
Lu Zijian's physical fitness was obviously better than Qin Zhongguo's, and he also ran back to the junction, but only slightly out of breath.
Lu Zijian acted vigorously and resolutely, and soon arranged everything, he asked the deputy regiment commander to mobilize all his soldiers, and when he was sure that the situation of the reserve was correct, he immediately set out to prepare to transport grain.
In addition, three clever young men were selected to follow the team to set off to investigate.
Zhang Hao was selected, and his excellent individual ability was valued by Lu Zijian, and one of his teammates was also selected.
The other person is the son of Lu Zijian's old boss named Li Qiang, who was originally just sent to him to be gilded, but he didn't expect to be trapped here, not lucky, at least alive.
The reason why Lu Zijian chose him was because of a little selfishness in his heart, he knew that even if he could get food, it would not be reliable in the future, and it would be useless to have no ability to protect himself, no matter how much food he had, just like this time, the high wall that had been pinned on him was completely unsuccessful, and it would have been broken if it hadn't been for the timely appearance of this mysterious force, and the entire regiment would have returned to the west long ago.
So he hopes to connect with this force through this cooperation, see if he can let his soldiers join in, and at the worst, he also hopes that his nephew can be favored, so that he can be regarded as worthy of his old boss.
Lu Zijian arranged it and hurried to the Western District with the three of them.
"Uncle Lu, what's the situation?" asked Li Qiang boldly.
When Lu Zijian heard Li Qiang call himself, he didn't reprimand him with a straight face as usual, but just said earnestly.
"Listen, you boys, behave well when you go to investigate, in case you are lucky enough to be favored by them, take you in, learn a trick and a half, not to mention anything else, at least it will be easier to live." ”
"Uncle Lu, is it really as mysterious as you said?" Li Qiang said suspiciously, when the monster broke through the city and fought with the soldiers at the junction, he was arranged by Lu Zijian to be behind, and he did not see with his own eyes those miraculous armor knights who passed on in the mouths of the soldiers, using the monster as a mount, wearing ancient style armor, and cutting off the monster's head with a sword? Although his comrades-in-arms swore to be frank, he himself did not see it with his own eyes, and still maintained some doubts.
Zhang Hao and his teammates were excited, they saw the strength of those knights with their own eyes, and they were discussing with their comrades in the past two days, imagining that if they could join it to learn powerful abilities, not to mention recovering the country, at least they could protect the current safe house.
Originally, they were still extravagant hopes, but they didn't expect to have the opportunity to join them in a blink of an eye, how could this make them not excited, and they couldn't help but be grateful to the head of the regiment.
"You kid don't talk nonsense! Listen to Lao Tzu!" Lu Zijian admonished.
A few people walked quickly, and soon arrived at the square.
Li Qiang looked at the two rows of knights in the square in a daze, especially when he saw the knights stepping down the huge monster, the cold hairs on his back stood up even more.
At this time, he believed the words of his comrades-in-arms, what his comrades-in-arms said was really not an exaggeration at all, looking at their fierce temperament, it must have been formed on the battlefield.
The doubts in my heart quietly dissipated, and at the same time, a fervent expectation arose in my heart, I want to join this team!
Lu Zijian and Qin Zhongguo walked in front of Lin Hu with their own people.
Lin Hu quickly glanced at a few people, and said, "Let's go!"
As soon as Lin Hu waved his hand, the two teams drove the demon horse out, and Captain Chen and the other six followed nervously.
Lu Zijian and Qin Zhongguo stood in place, secretly praying that the operation would go smoothly.
