encumber
But the development of things was unexpected by Mu Qingfeng, under the deliberate pressure of Nangong Lin Xuan, more and more people came to join the Xiling army, because there were people from Nanlin City as an example, Mu Qingfeng was unable to say anything to refuse, so their marching speed was getting slower and slower, looking at the border was close at hand, but for the sake of the people, Mu Qingfeng had to slow down the already unhappy march again, of course, it would be good if things were only so simple, those who just came were different from the people of Nanlin City, They didn't bring all their wealth, let alone prepare sufficient dry food, so they only marched for two or three days before there was a shortage of food, you must know that the people are also uneven, some of them are hungry, so they set their eyes on those women and children in the southern city, because after several large-scale wars, there are not many middle-aged men in the southern city, so those disputes have a tendency to become bigger and bigger.
"Shizi, there was another food snatch just now, a group of people who don't know where actually beat a widow in Nanlin City to seriously injure in order to feed themselves, Elder Jia was angry but took people to theorize, and he was actually injured." The news brought by Mu Chongshan is definitely worse, if this matter is not resolved as soon as possible, I am afraid that if I don't have to return to Xiling, there will be a big mess.
Mu Qingfeng couldn't sit still anymore when he heard this, and directly took Xue Lian'er and them to the gathering place of the people, he first came to the place where Elder Jia was, looking at this old man who was old but had been beaten and his head was bleeding, Mu Qingfeng didn't know what to say.
"Shizi, the old man doesn't have the face to see you, I thought that for the sake of everyone being the same sect, I would pull them along, who knew that there would be such a mess, otherwise Shizi, you should leave them alone and let them fend for themselves." Elder Jia was furious when he remembered what had just happened, if it weren't for a few young juniors protecting him, he might have been killed just now.
"Elder don't be angry, in the final analysis, it's all caused by food, they are different from you, they didn't make full preparations before leaving, and they will naturally make irrational moves when they are hungry, I think it's better to do this, Elder Jia, you take out some of the food, and if the rest is insufficient, I will make up for the gap from the military rations in our Xiling Iron Cavalry." Mu Qingfeng thought for a while, and felt that this matter could not be borne by the people of Nanlin City.
"Shizi, this is absolutely unacceptable, we have not left Daliangzhou yet, the chasing soldiers will return at any time, if the army does not have sufficient physical strength, how can we fight the enemy, so let's do it, we have more women and children, and we can't eat much food, we will bear the = rations of those people!" Hearing that Mu Qingfeng was going to take out the military rations, Elder Jia never agreed. In his opinion, the problems were all caused by himself, and if he hadn't pulled them in the face of his fellow clan, there would not have been so many people coming to defect, and naturally there would not have been so many things.
"Okay, Elder Jia, there are a lot of women and children among you, and you can't stand the hunger, so let's do it, if there is anything to discuss with me in the future, we will always return to Xiling together." Although Mu Qingfeng's decision will reduce the combat effectiveness of the Xiling Iron Cavalry, the current situation is that he can't take care of drinking to quench his thirst.
"Childe, it's not a way to go on like this, there will be more and more people who come to us to defect to us based on this momentum, we can't give them all the rations of the sergeants, if the army of Nanyue Wangfu chases after them, I'm afraid it will ......" Although Mu Chongshan didn't finish speaking, Mu Qingfeng couldn't hear the meaning beyond the words.
"We have to find someone to go back to Xiling with reinforcements and grain and grass to solve this problem, otherwise it is really like what Commander Mu said, I am afraid that before we reach the boundary of Xiling, many people will starve to death." Although this plan is a bit far away and does not quench the thirst of the near, it is better than sitting still.
"In that case, then I'll go, give me a fast horse, I think it won't take a few days to come with the troops to meet me." It was Xue Lian'er who spoke, which greatly surprised everyone.
"Lian'er, ...... you" Mu Qingfeng didn't expect that it was Xue Lian'er who made this request, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that no one was more suitable except for her accident. First of all, the identity of the person who went to ask for help must be weighty enough, otherwise it is difficult to attract the attention of the defenders, Xue Lian'er is Mu Qingfeng's wife who has not passed the door, the future princess of Ling, this identity is enough to suppress those arrogant soldiers, plus she has practiced excellent riding and archery skills on the grassland, even if she encounters a small group of enemies on the road, she has the ability to protect herself, although Mu Chongshan and Yan Lu also have such skills and status, but one of them has to protect Mu Qingfeng closely, and one person wants to command the Xiling Iron Cavalry, and they can't leave this place lightly.
Although I feel that it is a little difficult to let a woman do this kind of thing, but this is the best choice at the moment, even Mu Chongshan has never spoken to persuade her, but I heard that my sister-in-law is going to ask for help, the three girls ** kite can't sit still, I have to be with her, thinking of ** kite's shocking martial arts, Mu Qingfeng agreed without thinking about it, neither of them is a powerless woman, ordinary people are afraid that they will not be able to please them when they meet them, the only thing to worry about is that their appearance is too outstanding, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble.
After Xue Lian'er and ** Kite left on fast horses, Mu Qingfeng had to put all his body and mind on these people of Nanyue, as time passed, more and more people joined this migration team, there was only a burden of twenty or thirty thousand, and in less than five days, the number doubled.
"Commander Zhuo, what's the situation now?" Nangong Lin Xuan has changed his nature in the past few days, and he has not spent all day drinking in his favorite concubine's room, but has been drawing and writing on the military map in the study, surrounded by messages from carrier pigeons, and finally he has made a heavy stroke in a place on the map, and that place is the place where Mu Qingfeng must pass through to return to Xiling-Luoque Valley.
"Returning to the prince, things are the same as you imagined, as more and more people join Mu Qingfeng's kid's team, their marching speed is simply the same as a snail, according to the previous speed, I am afraid that they have already returned to Xiling, and now they are still squirming on the border, by the way, General Chen Mi should return to the dynasty soon, = when the time comes, those who have other ideas in our Daliang Prefecture should also be honest." Commander Zhuo told Nangong Lin Xuan what he knew word for word.
"Those towns with signs of rebellion, just teach Chen Mi's miscellaneous army, you go and send them a message, let Chen Mi take his own elite, and block Mu Qingfeng, the prince of the Lingwang, for me in Luoque Valley, I want to see if this kid who is making waves in my territory has three heads and six arms." Nangong Lin Xuan said and put on his shirt.
"But Lord Wang, General Chen is mostly foot soldiers, even if Mu Qingfeng and their marching speed is slow, I'm afraid it will be difficult to intercept it." Commander Zhuo looked like a man who had been on the battlefield, and he saw the shortcomings of this plan at a glance.
"I know, so we have to put some pressure on them to further slow down their march into the city, I'm afraid that the homeless people alone are not enough, it is said that this king has not ridden a horse to hunt for a long time, this time let's see if Mu Qingfeng, the young tiger, has the ability to escape from my hands." It turned out that Nangong Lin Xuan planned to go out in person, and in his hands, Daliangzhou was also the last elite force in the entire Nanyue Palace.
Because Mu Qingfeng and Nangong Lin Xuan both made big moves, the information about the battle situation flew to Kyoto like snowflakes, and when Nangong Jinyu heard that his father had gone out in person, a big stone in his heart finally fell, and the Jingshi was already firmly in his hands, the cavalry of the Green Wolf Clan and the navy of the Wa Kingdom were already on the way, and the Qingjun Alliance was afraid that they would have to worry about their original territory, and it seemed that the situation was very good. Some people are happy, some people are worried, the more happy the Nanyue Wangfu is, the more the King Ling in the prison is also frowning.
Mr. Zhan's attitude towards King Ling changed a little after knowing Mu Qingfeng's identity, although he didn't let him out, but a lot of information was told to him, in Mr. Zhan's opinion, King Ling in prison is like a toothless tiger, and he can't make much waves.
"Sir, what do you think of Nanyue King Nangong Lin Xuan's actions." Calculating the time, Mr. Zhan really arrived as scheduled, at this time, King Ling didn't have any intention of the wine he sent, he was more concerned about Mu Qingfeng, who had never recognized him.
"What the prince said is right, this Nangong Lin Xuan is indeed a good opponent, he actually thought of such a way to delay the process of the prince, if the prince falls into his scheme, I am afraid it will be difficult to leave Daliangzhou, the people's hearts are this thing, there is no unevenness in the widowhood, and when there are more and more people, maybe they don't need to do anything in the Nanyue Palace, they will mess with themselves." After Mr. Zhan knew that Mu Qingfeng had fallen into the enemy's tired tactics, he was not very optimistic about his decision, in his opinion, it was a wise choice for a strong man to break his wrist at this time.
"If I were the king of Nanyue, I would definitely take my elite and go straight to Mu Qingfeng's way to leave at about the same time, after so many days, Mu Qingfeng's rations will definitely not be much, plus I have to protect the people, I'm afraid it's ......" The King of Liangling didn't say any more, in fact, Nanyue King Nangong Lin Xuan did just that.
"What are you going to do when the prince looks at me like this? Do you want me to let you out? Mr. Zhan saw Zhan Yujiang looking at him directly, and said with a smile, but he didn't know why, his smile seemed to be mixed with a trace of bitterness.
"I hope you will help Mu Qingfeng for the sake of Yun Ying's child." King Ling's request made the smile on Mr. Zhan's face condense, he never expected that he would actually make such a request.
