Three Hundred and Ninety: Dongqing Earthquake (22)

Qi Guanrang held the reins with both hands, holding the feather fan that he always carried with him, "Xiaoyu is very smart, guess it yourself?"

Even he had never thought that old friends would meet in such a situation.

Guess?

Guess a fool!

Xu Ke pursed his lips, glanced at the young man holding a torch, and said, "Military?"

"That's right." Qi Guanrang agreed with a smile.

If he hadn't been riding a tall horse, Xu Ke really wanted to pull Qi Guanrang off the horse and give him a good beating.

"Why are your military here?"

Military is a private soldier, a personal armed force. Why did Qi Guanrang run here from Chongzhou with so many military?

Qi Guanrang did not speak, but Meng Hun on the side bowed and said, "Mr. Qi Guanrang knew that the young master was in trouble, so he came here."

Xu Ke said, "How come Ke didn't know that Wen Zheng also had the ability to predict the future?"

Qi Guanrang smiled and said nothing, just glanced at the grain cart that was pushed out, and then looked at the embarrassment of Xu Ke and his group, and his heart moved.

"This is not a good time to ramble and quarrel. If Xiaoyu suspects Rang, it will not be too late to interrogate him later. At this moment, human lives are at stake. Xiaoyu should lead the way as soon as possible, so that we can meet the young master early." Qi Guanrang winked, "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time."

Xu Ke also understood this truth, he just didn't understand why Qi Guanrang happened to appear outside Shangjing City.

"In that case, go back and explain." Xu Ke frowned, the current environment is indeed not suitable for talking about these things.

The current training methods of the troops are still formulated by Jiang Pengji, but the training volume is much heavier than before.

After three or four years of training, even a pig can walk on two legs, not to mention these carefully selected young strong men, most of whom were born as bandits. They were originally fierce bandits, but after a few years, they were polished into elite soldiers who obey orders.

Meng Hun waved his hand, and someone immediately led a horse forward. He said, "Mr. Xu, get on the horse."

"How many troops did you bring with you?"

When Xu Ke saw Meng Hun, his mind became clear, knowing that Qi Guanrang had brought people out this time through formal channels.

When Jiang Pengji left, he handed over the operation of the troops to Meng Hun, and Qi Guanrang would occasionally come to help and manage it.

Without these two people, Jiang Pengji would not be too comfortable as a hands-off shopkeeper.

"A total of 3,000 people were brought." Qi Guanrang said, and added, "But there are only more than a thousand people here."

Meng Hun was a warrior, but he was delicate and sensitive. He could not help but take over the conversation and separate the two.

"The remaining two thousand people have been sent out to rescue the people of Fengyi County." Meng Hun thought for a while, and then said, "Don't worry, Mr. Xu, these three thousand troops were brought out from Chongzhou, and most of the time they were divided into small groups, and they will definitely not cause trouble to you..."

Almost every noble family has a troop, which varies in size. They must be tied up in peacetime and cannot run around.

If they are found to be gathering in large numbers, they may be suspected of causing trouble, and then the owner of the troop will be in trouble.

Xu Ke listened and hummed, his face eased a little, but there was still no sign of relaxation in his frown.

He knew that Qi Guanrang was cautious by nature and would not hand over such a big handle to the enemy. In fact, it was true. The troop was divided into small groups when it left Chongzhou, and agreed to meet at the junction of Shangyang County and Fengyi County. It did not arouse suspicion along the way.

But he still minded that Qi Guanrang mobilized three thousand troops to run around without Jiang Pengji's permission.

Qi Guanrang ordered his three thousand troops to hide in a hidden valley and set up camp there. They have been hiding for several days.

After the earthquake, no one in the troops died, but a few unlucky people were hit by the fallen tents and suffered minor injuries.

Qi Guanrang had never been to Shangjing. Looking at the towering tall city gate, he could imagine how prosperous the buildings behind the city gate would be.

However, passing through the damaged city gate, the scene inside the city gate shocked his heart and made his pupils shrink slightly.

The devastation and ruins,

Where is the prosperous scene imagined in his mind?

They entered the city from the north gate, and the nearby area had not been searched. When several surviving people heard the footsteps, they immediately tried their best to make a sound to attract the attention of the living. This scene was a bit creepy, but the troops did not change their faces and were not affected by external things.

"Why... the court didn't send anyone here? Or... haven't searched here yet?"

Qi Guanrang lived in a small valley during this period, and the news from the outside world was not very well-informed.

If the earthquake hadn't happened, he would have continued squatting there waiting for Jiang Pengji to come.

Xu Ke's face was cold, and he sneered, "How could the emperor sitting in the nine-layered sky hear the voice of human suffering?"

Qi Guanrang's heart sank. Now the earthquake has occurred for a day and a night, and the court has not made any action. Why is this?

Even if he didn't know what the golden rescue time was, he knew that the longer the time was delayed, the more people would die.

He left dozens of troops to rescue the few people who had just asked for help from the ruins.

Jiang Pengji accepted the imperial edict, and Huang Tan left behind a thousand guards and five hundred stones of grain, and couldn't wait to leave.

This place smells too bad!

Watching Huang Tan being escorted away by a hundred people, Jiang Pengji clenched the imperial edict in her hand, still expressionless.

She glanced at the guards, "Who is in charge here?"

Because the place is limited and there is no place for many people to stand, only three people followed Huang Tan to her, and the rest were all on standby outside.

After she finished speaking, a man came forward, clasped his fists, and said in a muffled voice, "It is your humble servant."

Jiang Pengji carefully looked at the man. He was about eight feet tall, with a broad back and strong waist. He took one step forward, which was equivalent to two steps of an ordinary person. He was also wearing the armor of the imperial army, and a thin shirt inside. The thin clothes could not hide his muscles at all.

Jiang Pengji was not short among men of the same age, but he had to look up when facing this man.

"What's your name?"

"Your humble servant Luo Yue."

"The emperor gave you to me, so during this period, your life and property will be decided by me, and you only need to obey my orders." Jiang Pengji said calmly, "If there are those who pretend to obey but secretly disobey, they will be killed on the spot without burial."

Hearing this, Luo Yue frowned his thick sword eyebrows and felt a little unhappy.

The imperial guards' safety in the capital was naturally different from that of ordinary people. Even if the man in front of them had an extraordinary family background, he was just a commoner after all. If it wasn't for the government's order, he had no right to order them around. But Jiang Pengji said this...

Jiang Pengji saw the flash of displeasure in the other person's eyes, and sneered in her heart. If she didn't need manpower, she wouldn't bother to deal with such a person... But, arrogant as he was, Luo Yue in front of her was also a bit capable. If he could abduct all 1,000 imperial guards after the earthquake, that would be perfect. Jiang Pengji lowered her eyes, and the bad water in her heart began to boil again.

At this time, her ears moved, and she heard the footsteps of a thousand people again.

With a raised eyebrow, she asked Luo Yue, "Did the government send other imperial guards?"

Give two thousand people?
