Chapter 413: Southern Army
Chapter 413 Nan Family Army
Author: He Yesu
Xu Li gasped for air as he spoke, and finally conveyed his meaning after a few breaths.
Cheng Fang was slightly stunned, "You said, someone broke through the formation?"
"yes."
Although the formation is not exquisite, it cannot be solved casually. He also put a lot of thought into setting it up. If someone enters by mistake and does not get out within a day, he will
Then he would lead people down the mountain to avoid being trapped in them and starving to death.
I never thought that someone was proficient in this.
Cheng Fang quickly suppressed the surprise in his eyes and asked, "Has the person arrived yet?"
"It should be soon," Xu Li said, "Zhu Yong is with them."
"Go and have a look."
Xu Li followed closely behind, a little panicked, "Chief, do you need to copy this guy?"
This is the first time someone has walked into their home, so they are inexperienced and nervous.
Cheng Fang thought for a moment and shook his head, "No need."
If people like this want to do anything to the people on Wutiao Mountain, they may not be able to fight back.
Most of the people here are children. Although they are energetic and can run and jump, they are still not good enough in front of people who really know martial arts.
He could resist with all his strength, but it was like using a mantis as a chariot.
After all, it’s not what it used to be...
The arrival of the uninvited guest attracted everyone's attention. They all stopped what they were doing, and their eyes followed Cheng Fang's figure. There were doubts, panic, and timidity in their eyes.
Did someone from the government invade?
Will they all be arrested or killed on the spot?
The few months in the mountains seemed like a dream. Unfortunately, such a beautiful dream would be cut off by the sword in the hands of the officers and crushed by their feet in an instant.
The older child pretended to be strong and held his breath. His eyes were red but he remained silent. He silently picked up the sickle used to cut grass and held it in front of him. He would rather die than surrender.
The younger ones couldn't help but secretly wipe away their tears, but they didn't dare to speak out, and their little faces turned red from holding back their tears.
They didn't want to die, but if they wanted to die, they had to die in the middle of the fight instead of just standing there obediently and being slaughtered.
Along the way, Xiao Rongxi received countless looks like this. She took a deep breath, feeling sad and painful in her heart.
This is what He Tingzhi said in the report he submitted every year. The people all live and work in peace and contentment. Although there are occasional droughts, they are all within control?!
"Plop——"
A child was running in a hurry and accidentally tripped over the vines nearby and fell heavily in front of him.
Before Xiao Rongxi could bend down, he had already burst into tears——
It's fear.
Tears fell into the mud and dissipated quickly.
The drought has lasted too long, and the cracks in the ground cannot be healed except by sweet rain.
If there is stagnant water, there must be a huge rock to break it.
Nan Zhen helped him up before Xiao Rongxi, squatted down, wiped off the mud on his face with a handkerchief, and said warmly, "Be careful."
The child twitched and was shocked by her words. He flattened his mouth and clenched his fists, "Are you here to kill us?"
The sound of milk was so milky that Nan Zhen felt sad for a while.
She slowly rubbed the child's fist and said, "Don't be afraid, we are here to protect you."
Cheng Fang, who hurried over, took in everything. When he saw Fei Liu, his heart couldn't stop accelerating. His eyes turned to the person diagonally in front of him, and his pupils shrank even more fiercely.
He recognized this face.
Cheng Fang's surprised look did not escape Xiao Rongxi's eyes. He was slightly confused. He had no impression of this person before, but looking at Cheng Fang's expression, he seemed to recognize him.
Seeing him approaching, Xiao Rongxi nodded slightly and said politely, "Chief Cheng."
A person who can lead the people in the city to resist and protect the children is worthy of respect.
"I heard about your deeds this time before, and I admire you deeply. I always wanted to meet you. I hope I won't disturb you."
"Don't interrupt." Cheng Fang was cheerful and immediately picked up the conversation.
He looked at Xiao Rongxi, then at Fei Liu, suppressed the shock in his heart, and led him sideways to his room, "Please come this way."
"Chief Cheng..." The child just now suddenly hugged his leg and leaned against him with some fear.
Cheng Fang raised his hand, touched his hand, and said with a smile, "It's okay."
Then he said to the children who were watching, "Just do whatever you have to do, don't worry."
The method he came up with was just a temporary measure.
If there is no foreign aid, the food stored in the people's homes will soon be exhausted, and Jincheng will become a hell on earth.
Now that this person is here, there is real hope.
After going up the mountain for so long, Cheng Fang showed a relieved smile for the first time, and even the children around him felt much relieved.
Xu Li pulled Zhu Yong aside and whispered with him, "Why do I feel like Leader Cheng knows them?"
"If you still say 'you think', that's recognition."
Zhu Yong pursed his lips and secretly thought that he had indeed guessed correctly.
How could Leader Cheng with such great ability be just a farmer? Xiao Rongxi and Nan Zhen had such good conversational and temperament, they must not be ordinary people.
He raised the corner of his mouth and patted Xu Li on the shoulder, "We have been idle too, and we have to go back and keep an eye on him!"
"Oh, yes, don't forget this."
After saying that, he dragged Zhu Yong to his original position, "Hurry up, hurry up, what if someone breaks into the formation again!"
"It's not that easy..."
Zhu Yong muttered in a low voice and followed his tugging force, "You have such a big head, why can't you figure it out..."
Although the houses here all have thatched roofs, they are extremely solid and cannot be shaken unless the wind is too strong.
Nan Zhen casually pulled off a piece of thatch stuck on the window lattice, gently stroked it in her hands, and bent it into various shapes.
She leaned against the wall and watched Cheng Fang pour three cups of tea, then picked up one of the cups and handed it to Xiao Rongxi, "Your Majesty."
As soon as the words came out, all three of them were startled.
Xiao Rongxi paused for a moment before reaching out to take the tea, then returned to normal, "Do you recognize me?"
"yes."
Cheng Fang cupped his fists and saluted, which was a very standard military salute.
Xiao Rongxi unconsciously rubbed the lid of the cup and asked tentatively, "Have you been in the army? Who were you with?"
After the words fell, Cheng Fang was a little silent.
Just when Xiao Rongxi frowned and was about to speak again, he suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I once went to the battlefield with General Nan and belonged to the original Nan family army."
When Nan Tianheng commanded the three armies, his subordinates were all called the Nan Family Army, but the original Nan Family Army only had about thirty people.
They are the people who have followed Nan Tianheng in all directions since he entered the battlefield. They have accompanied him from a small vanguard to a general who holds the power of the three armies.
Later, Nan Tianheng was disarmed and returned to the field, and the Nan family army was reorganized. They were unwilling to rejoin others, so they also left the capital and returned to their hometowns.
Cheng Fang was originally from Jincheng, so he naturally returned here.
Although he had been fighting for many years, he still had the ability to farm, so he calmly built a small yard on the outskirts of the city and became a smart farmer.
