Chapter 453: The adults return to the city, and the villagers are settled
(This week's list of acknowledgments and rewards: Youth Wuzhu, 4206, Alone, 9603, Joy Book Friends, thank you!)
Today the clouds are very low, very thick, overcast, and going to snow. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The county seat of Wuping is not big, boxy, several main streets are staggered, and the center is the county government.
Compared with other yamen, the county government of Wuping County is much simpler, with mottled eaves and traces of obsolescence everywhere.
In the public house, Lu Qingyuan looked a little uneasy. The pen and ink were spread out on the case, but he couldn't write after several strokes.
The day before yesterday, he received information that the barbarian army had been found in the territory. The barbarians invaded, ransacked a village, and then disappeared.
All kinds of traces show that the other party has not left and is still wandering in Wuping County.
A group of barbarian troops, about dozens of people, was strong enough to pose a danger to Wuping County. There were hundreds of troops stationed in the county, some of them stayed in the county seat, and some of them spread out and were responsible for patrolling.
If the barbarian army came directly to attack the county seat, Lu Qingyuan was not afraid, but he couldn't ask for it. I am afraid that the other party will fight guerrillas, burn and loot everywhere, and then I will have a headache.
What's more, Lu Qingyuan knew that Chen Sanlang was in Wuping County.
When they saw each other in a hurry that day, they separated, but Lu Qingyuan was exquisite, and he could probably guess some clues.
In this way, there will be a big problem - if by accident, the brute army bumps into Chen Sanlang and his party, what should I do?
Lu Qingyuan immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly dispatched manpower to step up reconnaissance and search, making sure to find the whereabouts of the barbarian army.
However, two days passed, and nothing was found. The barbarian army disappeared into the sea like mud oxen without a trace.
The terrain of Wuping County is complex, with many mountains and dense forests, and it is indeed difficult to track down once you get into it. Moreover, there is a shortage of manpower in the county, and many manpower have to deal with the affairs of the displaced people, and it is difficult to get out.
The stakes are very high, Lu Qingyuan thought about whether he should report to the city and ask the government to send troops over. If Chen Sanlang had returned to Laoshan Mansion safely at this time, it would be the best.
The barbarian army should only be the front sentinel, no one knows whether there will be a large army in the back, in fact, on the day he received the information, after figuring out the situation, he had reported it as soon as possible, but he did not mention Chen Sanlang's matter.
And today, Lu Qingyuan couldn't sit still.
"Report!"
Menzi shouted.
"Come in. ”
Menzi quickly entered the room, bowed, and said, "The Southwest Patrol has reported that they have found the lord of the mansion. ”
"Really?"
Lu Qingyuan was excited, and Huo Ran stood up.
"It has been confirmed that they are heading to the county seat. ”
"Good, good...... Quick, ready to meet ......"
Lu Qingyuan's heart was overjoyed, overflowing with words. As long as Chen Sanlang is fine, it is better than anything else. He tossed and turned for the past two days, and now he can finally put his mind at ease.
......
Thirty miles outside the city of Wuping County, a group of people and horses were walking, heading towards the county seat.
Wang Cheng led the horse and walked in front to open the way, while his men spread out their wings, faintly forming a wingguard to form a protection.
They were one of the many patrol teams in Wuping County, numbering no more than fifteen people, all of them were old veterans, Wang Cheng was the captain, he had been trained in the Fucheng military camp, he had seen Chen Sanlang, and he was deeply impressed by this young man, so when the two sides met, he immediately recognized it, and immediately dismounted and saluted.
was recognized, Chen Sanlang was so happy that he didn't need to explain. Just go to the county seat, I believe Lu Qingyuan has been waiting over there for a long time.
As Wang Cheng walked, he wondered in his heart, he didn't know why the lord of the mansion suddenly appeared here, and he was still carrying a large group of people.
Those people were all dirty and dusty, and they knew at a glance that they were refugees.
It is not surprising that refugees have come to the resettlement site, eat hot porridge, and live in refugee shelters since the beginning of winter.
However, the group of people who followed Chen Sanlang now were a little different, many of them were young and strong, and they carried bows, arrows, knives and guns with them, although they were poorly made, but it was enough to show that their identity was different from that of other displaced refugees.
Wang Cheng wondered in his heart, but he never asked too much. It's not his turn to question these things, as long as Chen Sanlang is sent to the county seat safely, a credit will naturally not be lost.
The people of Hongjia Village came out of the mountains, running around and toiling, they were already very tired, and when they encountered the patrol soldiers before, everyone was shocked, and they clenched the weapons around them, which was completely a subconscious reaction. However, soon, I saw the captain of the team leader saluting Chen Sanlang respectfully, calling him "Lord".
At this time, no matter how stupid the villagers were, they all knew that Chen Sanlang's identity was extraordinary.
Identity, many times, is a kind of label, different identities can give people different impressions. Some identities are easy to be convincing as soon as they are revealed, while others often arouse suspicion when they are spoken. All in all, judging people by their appearance and their identity have a long history and belong to traditions, and they have always existed since ancient times.
Chen Sanlang's status as an "adult" suddenly made everyone feel awe-inspired.
When he was in the mountains, Chen Sanlang kept saying that he could let everyone go out to eat, although everyone chose to follow, but the main thing was that they had no choice but to gamble. In the bottom of my heart, after all, there are still doubts. Talking about empty words, who wouldn't? What's more, Chen Sanlang's origin is mysterious, and he doesn't know the depths, who knows if it's a conspiracy?
But now, that suspicion has vanished. When they saw Lu Qingyuan leading a large group of people to greet him, and they all had a humble attitude, Hong Adaa and the others were all honored and had light on their faces.
They have had a relationship with Chen Sanlang.
Lu Qingyuan was also secretly surprised when he saw Chen Sanlang with a large group of displaced people, and after thinking about it, he was immediately relieved, it should have been Chen Sanlang who met him halfway. But since it was brought back by Gongzi himself, the treatment is naturally higher.
Chen Sanlang asked: "Qingyuan, in the county seat, is there still a free place?"
Lu Qingyuan hurriedly said: "Yes, don't worry, I will arrange them properly." ”
Chen Sanlang nodded and said no more. Enter the county seat, do not stop all the way, and go directly to the county office. Lu Qingyuan had already arranged a banquet and waited, the dishes on the banquet were not sumptuous, but there was rice and meat, which was enough. Counting it, I have been eating fish for the past few days, which is quite greasy, and when I see rice, I can eat at least three bowls.
Hong Adaa and Hong Tiezhu were invited to the table, both of them blushing, looking cramped and uneasy, and looking very reserved.
They are simple by nature, how could they have ever attended such a scene? They don't even know how to place their hands.
Chen Sanlang greeted him warmly, which made the two gradually relax. The main thing is that the food is delicious, it is simply delicious, and when you take a bite, you can't help it immediately, regardless of three, seven, twenty-one, let go of your belly to eat. What etiquette face, is it important to have a full stomach?
