I don't know how long it took, but Lu Ping finally woke up. He was startled by the large-faced plates that came to him.
"Uncle Seven is awake, Uncle Seven is awake!"
Someone shouted in surprise, and the big-faced people in front of them suddenly showed a look of joy.
"I just said, how could Uncle Qi die from such a minor injury? Uncle Qi's life is very tough!"
There was a scent of millet porridge in his nose, and Lu Ping felt like he was being helped to sit up. A bowl of golden millet porridge was delivered to him. He subconsciously reached out to take it, but found that he could not lift his arms at all.
"Uncle Qi, sit still and let me feed you!" A young man came over and fed you with a wooden spoon.
"Where am I?" Lu Ping took a few bites and looked around: "Am I still in the camp?"
"We are in the city!" the teenagers said happily: "Uncle Qi, we are officers and soldiers. Now you are the officer of officers and soldiers. The adults above said that from now on you will be our flag, and we will all be your subordinates!"
"
"What officers and soldiers?" Lu Ping frowned, feeling a little uneasy: "Please tell me clearly what happened from beginning to end, starting from when I fainted last night!"
"The officers and soldiers have artillery!" The teenagers rushed to say one by one: "Uncle Qi, you didn't see it. I saw the soldiers who died outside with my own eyes this morning. Oh, it was so miserable. They were so shelled.
It’s so thin that you can’t pick it up with a dustpan!”
"Say it!" Lu Ping pointed at the other boy angrily: "Huzi's words are unreliable, please be more honest!"
"The officers and soldiers really have artillery!" The seemingly loyal young man smiled: "We don't know how to fight. Anyway, not long after the officers and soldiers fired the artillery, people outside came to die. Everyone stayed on guard until dawn. The people in the city
After the officers and soldiers came out, everyone followed them into the city!"
"What about the camp?" Lu Ping asked, feeling a little disappointed. The camp they had guarded all night would have been abandoned by the officers and soldiers!
"Then I don't know!" The young man said calmly: "Uncle Qi, you are so seriously injured. There is no doctor in the camp. Moreover, the officers and soldiers above said that we have killed enough traitors in front of the battle. We
People in Lujia Village can become officers and soldiers..."
The young man's voice became softer: "You were not awake at that time, so we discussed it and felt that officers and soldiers are not bad. They get paid every month and have enough to eat, so..."
"Officers and soldiers, just be officers and soldiers!" Lu Ping nodded: "This is a good thing, what are you afraid of? If I die, will you still ask me!"
"I just told you that Uncle Qi wouldn't say anything!" The teenagers suddenly became happy again.
"By the way, Uncle Qi, they said that as officers and soldiers, we get two taels of silver every month. I haven't seen any silver yet!"
"What does this mean? Apart from millet porridge, we can eat rice cakes and steamed buns. I heard that sometimes there is meat porridge too!"
"Stop, stop, stop!" Lu Ping looked at these guys who didn't know their troubles, and shouted angrily: "What's the situation outside? There are so many thieves and soldiers, are the officers and soldiers fighting them? We have arrived in the city.
If the officers and soldiers are defeated, don't they have to go to the city wall to defend the city at any time? Boys, listen to me, don't just think about food, I will take care of your lives first!"
"We didn't fight. A lot of people were killed by the bandits last night!" said the teenagers: "The camp is still there now. It seems that people have been sent over to the Changgou side. The bandits were probably stunned and there has been no movement.
!”
"That's good, that's good!"
Lu Ping finally nodded with confidence. Changgou is still there, and the camp is still there, which means that the traitors have not taken advantage and the losses are not small. Even if they fight again, they will not be able to reach the city for a while. Lu Ping
These people in Jiacun finally no longer have to fight hard at the front.
"Where are the pancakes you mentioned, get me some!" He opened his mouth and shouted, "I need to eat something dry, I'm starving to death!"
At the foot of the city wall less than a mile away from Lu Ping, Zhou Jue was reporting to Jiang Wan the results of his group outside the city in front of Jiang Wan.
"According to your Majesty's wishes, Li Zicheng's order to expand the army to the 4,000th household has been passed over. The officers and soldiers were overjoyed and expressed their gratitude to your Majesty for your kindness!"
"Don't say these nonsense!" Jiang Wan waved her hand: "That deputy of 100 households over there, no, deputy of 1,000 households, didn't come to the city in person?"
"Bu Fuqianhu said that he hopes that you can give him a few more of the tiger squatting cannons that he has allocated from the arsenal in the city. If there are bows and arrows, it would be best to give him some. There are currently many people in the refugee camp.
It's enough, there's enough food, if they need to contain the rebels in the city, he thinks he can contain them for at least one night!"
"His bravery is commendable!" Jiang Wan nodded with satisfaction: "As long as he wants those in the Yan'an Mansion's arsenal, I will give them to him. I didn't expect that Li Zicheng's subordinates would actually hide such a number one figure.
It’s true that there are so many talents!”
"But, sir!" Zhou Jue frowned slightly: "Students feel that although this deputy Qianhu has the courage to kill the enemy, he promotes them in front of them, and this person seems to want to serve in the back. This matter is always
Something tastes weird!”
"What's weird?" Jiang Wan asked: "If there is something weird about killing thieves, then everyone in our Nanhai Guard is weird!"
"I can't tell you!" Zhou Jue hesitated for a moment: "The student is just reminding you, beware of this person becoming a king. At this moment, you are giving me food and weapons. If he changes sides in front of the battle, the disaster will be worse than
Then Wang Er is much bigger!"
"It won't be his turn to defect!" Jiang Wan shook his head: "You are worrying too much. If you think so, you might as well think that he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to expand his strength and defeat this fourth
Qianhu has truly become a force that dares to fight, a force that can always fight. By then, in my Nanhai Guard, he will be able to advance and retreat freely, and he will have the ability to bargain!"
"Sir, you are wise!" Zhou Jue thought for a while: "Since you think the other party may have such thoughts, why should you agree to all his requests!?"
"Why don't you agree!" Jiang Wan smiled: "I will give him as big a stage as he wants. These people are originally refugees. If I still doubt them and dare not use them, then I will give them
Continue sending it to the rogue thief, besides, don’t I even have such a small amount of tolerance?”
Zhou Jue sighed, feeling that he seemed to understand something. Lord Jiang in front of him was confident enough to control the other party. Although he was not particularly sure why Lord Jiang was so confident, as long as he knew that Jiang Wan was not
It's not that he didn't expect this, it has served as a reminder to his staff and he has done his duty.
"I brought hundreds of people back from the camp outside the city!" Zhou Jue said: "Most of them are injured. Do you want to send someone to check on them?"
