Chapter 2497 The Unlucky Wu Mang Family
Wei Xiucai didn't understand: "The fire has been lit, why do we still need to move? Isn't this troublesome?"
Wei Xiucai had a daughter, so Fang Tiangui simply said: "There are a lot of strangers passing by on the roadside. Who knows who is passing by? What if it is a gangster who harms the innocence of the girl's family?!"
One sentence frightened Wei Xiucai so much that he hurriedly said: "Fang Yamen has experience, Mr. Fu, Mr. Chen, let's move quickly."
Erdan’s father’s surname is Chen, which is really a popular surname in Chu. There are people named Chen everywhere.
"Sure, let's move quickly." Erdan Daddy also thought it made sense, so they went over to talk to the big guys and move the camp to the woods one mile away from the roadside.
Fortunately, they moved quickly. Just before dawn, a thunderous sound of horses galloping suddenly came from the other side of the avenue, and Fang Tiangui and the others were awakened.
The birthday lady hurried to see the fire. When she saw that the fire in the fire had been extinguished, she felt relieved and pushed Lin Laoba, saying: "You and Brother Fang go and have a look... I heard this sound, I'm afraid there are soldiers." Crossing the border, don’t get too close when you go to see it, otherwise something might happen.”
"Hey." Lin Laoba responded, took the hatchet to find Fang Tiangui, and together with the two guys from the rich family, they headed towards the road.
They went there to discredit them, and the passing cavalry was on their way holding torches. Fang Tiangui and the others used the light of each other's torches to see clearly that the passing cavalry was indeed a group of soldiers.
There were about a thousand in number, and there seemed to be generals accompanying them.
What are these cavalry going to do all night long?
Lin Laoba and the others were shocked and suspicious. They lay down in the snow and waited for the cavalry to go far away before they dared to move and rushed back to tell everyone.
Mr. Fu is a shrewd man. After hearing about this, he remembered the words that were spread in Yongtai Mansion when he left: "When the scenery collapses and the earth falls, heroes emerge. Do you still remember this?"
The big guy nodded: "Remember."
The rich old man sighed: "When the disaster comes and the troops are sent out, I'm afraid there will be unrest in Dachu. Let's hurry up and go to the northwest... That's the safest place now."
Although they didn't say much, everyone was not stupid. They knew that after a natural disaster, trouble was most likely to occur, so they all nodded: "The rich man is right, we have to rush to the northwest as soon as possible."
But they were not in a hurry today, and planned to rest for an extra day to avoid running into the group of cavalry in the morning.
However, they were not idle. They chopped a lot of firewood, made another batch of dry food, and boiled a batch of boiling water for later use. They woke up early the next morning, had breakfast, and set off on their way.
I was walking on a path through forests and mountains, and occasionally came across a small village. Many of the houses in that village had been shaken by the earthquake.
I also encountered several small earthquakes on the way and was frightened a few times.
Mrs. Lin wiped her tears and said, "God won't bless me. This natural disaster is too big."
The birthday girl comforted her: "Don't be sad, mother-in-law, just wait until we get to the northwest."
Xiaomei also stretched out her little hand to wipe her grandma's tears: "Don't cry~"
Mrs. Lin smiled: "Hey, grandma doesn't cry anymore, Xiaomei isn't afraid."
She got off the cart again and said, "Shou Niang, come up and sit for a while. My feet are numb from sitting. Come down and take a walk."
The birthday lady knew that Mrs. Lin felt sorry for her, so she did not refuse the kindness. After holding Xiaomei on the cart for more than a quarter of an hour, she put Mrs. Lin on the cart again.
The group of people traveled every day for more than half a month. When they arrived at the next city, they saw no more houses that had been shaken by the earthquake.
Mrs. Lin was very happy. She knelt down and kowtowed to God three times: "God bless me. After all these days, I have finally reached a safe place."
Mr. Fu kept his promise and said: "Let's go to a village on the outskirts of the city to stay overnight and have a good meal. My brother Zhi and I will go to Fucheng Car and Horse Shop to rent a car tomorrow morning. We will all drive on the road the day after tomorrow. It will be much easier."
The rich young master's name is Fu Xianzhi, a very elegant and elegant name.
Then he said: "Fang Yamen, Wei Xiucai, Xiao Chen, Xiao Ba, you will also come with us tomorrow. You know more about trivial matters than my brother. When the time comes, you will teach him and let him learn how to behave." .”
He is quite good at being a man. Erdan Daddy was happy and impressed when he heard this: "Okay, let's rent a car together tomorrow and go to the village to find a place to live."
The group of people went to a village outside the city. After the rich man gave them a couple of silver, the village chief let them live in the old house in the village. However, they had to pay extra for fetching water, which was three cents for a bucket of water.
The big guy agreed and bought grain with the villagers. The rich man also bought three chickens and cooked a whole-grain chicken porridge, allowing the two hundred people who were traveling with him to have a rare meaty meal together.
On the second day, I rented a car and bought medicinal materials, and continued on my journey on the third day.
…
Xiong Yue had already rushed outside Jin Dou Mansion with a thousand horsemen, but he asked the cavalry to disguise themselves as passing victims, people returning home, and passing merchants, and enter the city in batches.
Because there was a response, these people in cavalry disguises were not searched, and their weapons and poisons were kept. They successfully entered Jindou Mansion, and were arranged in a reliable house through the contact person, waiting for action.
After Xiong Yue settled down, he immediately said: "Go and ask how the arrangements are going over there? We have to see someone tomorrow at the latest, and I won't wait any longer."
Will take action directly.
"Don't worry, Sir, General Mo will go see him right now. With how much the father and son trust him, Sir, I will definitely be able to get my wish soon." Vice General Wang said.
After hearing this, Xiong Yue waved his hand and motioned for him to go quickly, and Vice General Wang bowed and left.
Soon, in the Central Plains garrison camp an hour's drive away from Jindou Mansion, Wu Chengqi learned the news: "What did you say, Deputy General Jin? The commander of Zhongzhou City came to Jindou Mansion in person, but he came to borrow troops from us. Go to disaster relief?"
The news of the earthquake in Yongtai Mansion and nearby counties and towns has reached Jindou Mansion. Wu Chengqi and his father Wu Po already knew about it. They sent scouts to Beicang Mansion to deliver a letter to Wu Mang, asking him about the commander of the Central Plains Capital. Will Si send troops to help Zhongzhou with disaster relief?
A few years ago, the person who stayed in Jindou Mansion to guard was Wu Mang, because the Central Plains Capital Command Envoy Division was here, and he wanted to be in charge of the headquarters.
But after Beicang Mansion was dug by the witch army and occupied by Luo Ying, Wu Mang was afraid and did not dare to hand over Beicang Mansion to Wu Po and his son. Instead, he dragged an old man and led his troops to guard Beicang Mansion. Cangfu, leaving Wu Po and his son in Jindou Mansion.
Thinking that if he guards Beicang Mansion, nothing will go wrong again.
However, Wu Mang still miscalculated. This time, instead of harming the Beicang Mansion, they would directly kill the Jindou Mansion and the Central Plains Commander's Office!
Vice Admiral Jin said: "This should be the case. Scouts from nearby Zhongzhou came to report that the entire city of Yongtai Mansion collapsed, and many people died. The disaster was too severe. If the bodies are not dug out and burned, they will die once they rot." The plague, I guess, is here to borrow troops from us to do this."
After hearing this, Wu Chengqi felt a little embarrassed: "But my uncle hasn't replied yet, so we don't dare to lend him our troops and horses."
Vice Admiral Jin said: "But Xiong Yue is here in person. We have to go see him here, otherwise when he gets angry, we in the Central Plains will be in danger... The soldiers in Zhongzhou are not easy to deal with, they are much more ruthless than us."
Then he suggested: "Master, let's go see Vice General Wu first and ask him what he means."
Because of the incident in Beicang Mansion, Wu Po was demoted from the first general to the deputy general.
Wu Chengqi nodded: "Uncle Jin is right, let's go, let's go find my father right now."
