Chapter 764 Reinforcements arrive, clean up the mess
Li Guyuan took several of his subordinates who had made great achievements to report the situation to Mu Siyu.
"Master, you didn't see how miserable they were. It's so satisfying."
"Yes! Thanks to Madam's wise leadership, we in Hubei City can withstand this man-made disaster. The brothers below are all saying that Madam is the reincarnation of a goddess, so she is invincible."
"You are tired too, go and have a rest! Once you have rested, we will have a good celebration."
"Thank you madam for your consideration, but seeing those bitches being taken over by God, my subordinates are so excited that they can't wait to tell everyone in Shanghai and North City the good news."
"Zhu Zhu, don't talk nonsense in front of Madam." Li Guyuan frowned and glared at the overly excited subordinate.
"I'm a rough man. Madam, please don't take offense. I won't talk nonsense in the future." Zhu Zhu quickly apologized.
"It doesn't matter, you are also a true-hearted person." Mu Siyu smiled lightly, "But you haven't slept for a few days because of this matter, so you should take a rest first to avoid damaging your body."
The heavy rain was getting heavier and heavier, and in the blink of an eye it was pouring down, and it was impossible to even open my eyes.
Mu Siyu ordered Lu Xun to keep an eye on the direction of the city gate to see if the rebels had any back-ups.
In fact, she overestimated those people's abilities.
When they were swallowed up by the "man-made flood", some of them were lucky enough to save their lives, while others were not so lucky and feared that they would become one with the world and completely disappear into the rivers.
Their corpses will sink to the bottom of the river, and maybe they will see the light of day again, or they may become food for fish and shrimp at the bottom of the river forever. In short, this blow is fatal to them, and those who survive are lucky.
"Why haven't you gone to rest yet?" Seeing Li Guyuan coming again, Mu Siyu waved her hand away, "Go back and rest! Don't think that because you are young, you don't take your body seriously."
"Master, my health is fine!" Li Guyuan came over, "Master, are you still waiting for news? I will wait with Master."
"I'm waiting for news of reinforcements."
"Have our reinforcements arrived?"
"Calculating the time, we should have arrived, but we haven't entered the city yet." Mu Siyu said, "This rain is coming so fast. I'm afraid they don't even have a place to take shelter from the rain, and they don't know where to stop to rest now."
"Report!" A man came galloping from outside the city on horseback with a flag, "I am an investigative officer under General Feng. I have to report in advance."
"Open the city gate." Mu Siyu said.
The city gate opened, and the scouts, guided by the soldiers, climbed onto the city wall and knelt in front of Mu Siyu to report on the reinforcements.
"You mean they went directly to the battlefield to hunt down the rebels?" Mu Siyu said, "The flood has a lot of momentum. Are they okay?"
"Don't worry, madam. The general is leading tens of thousands of soldiers to hunt down the remnants of the army. They are far away from the flood and will not be affected. However, the general is worried that his wife is worried about her here, so he asked his subordinates to go ahead and report the situation to my wife."
"Okay, you go and rest first."
"Thank you ma'am."
Reinforcements have arrived, and the matters on the battlefield are left to the men. Mu Siyu is responsible for cleaning up the mess in Hubei City.
Many people have been injured and many soldiers have died in these days. Just doing these statistics will take a lot of time, and they need to be arranged well.
"Mom, I have already made the statistics." Lu Zhiyun placed several booklets in front of Mu Siyu, "These are all soldiers who died in battle."
"Have you recorded their household registrations clearly?"
"I remember everything clearly." Lu Zhiyun said, "When they joined the army, everyone's information was clearly remembered. Then each person was given a wooden sign, and now they are all here."
Mu Siyu flipped through the booklet.
"I have also recorded those who have made meritorious services and those who have been injured. The only thing missing is the people outside the city who have not yet recorded it. After all, they have made great contributions this time, and we also want to reward them."
"You have helped my mother a lot. This period has been so chaotic, and you can prepare these things, which shows that you care about the war every day."
"Mom, those who assassinated me are killers. They have been trained in a secret place. They don't know anything except killing. But they all have leopard patterns on their bodies."
"Actually, I have already guessed that this rebellion is related to that organization. In fact, over the years, although the people of that organization have no longer blatantly come out to show off, there are traces of them everywhere."
"Is that rebel leader the Prince Li who escaped back then?"
"It's not Zhao Zimo." Mu Siyu shook his head, "When I was kidnapped in Licheng, I met a man. He was wearing a mask. I didn't see his appearance, but I remember those eyes. It was him."
A few hours later, the soldiers reported that "reinforcements have arrived at the city gate."
Before Mu Siyu arrived at the city gate, she heard cheers coming from the entire Shanghai North City.
The city gate opened, and the soldiers led by General Feng and Lu Shaoyu slowly entered the city.
Lu Shaoyu's eyes stayed on Mu Siyu and Lu Zhiyun.
Mu Siyu saw Lu Shaoyu's calm expression and knew that the boy must be worried, but that face really inherited his father's sophistication. If he didn't know him well enough, he wouldn't be able to see it at all.
"Madam, thank you for your hard work." General Feng dismounted and knelt down towards Mu Siyu.
"General Feng, please get up quickly."
Although Mu Siyu is the wife of the Prime Minister and has a first-class imperial title, General Feng is an official of the imperial court and does not have to kneel to her. He kneels down to follow his true heart.
"You guys have been running all the way, so rest first!"
"There are still remnants of the rebels nearby. I am worried that it will be harmful to the people, so I will continue to eliminate the rebels after taking a rest."
They returned to the city mainly because the soldiers were tired and needed a good rest.
In addition, the rain was too heavy, which affected their judgment. Without understanding the situation in Hubei City, taking rash actions will only slow down the progress, so they first returned to the city to understand the situation and then discuss response strategies.
Mu Siyu handed over the task of arranging General Feng and other soldiers to the county magistrate.
She left Lu Shaoyu alone and asked him how a civil servant could interfere in the war.
Lu Shaoyu replied: "My father has lost contact, and my mother and siblings are all in Hubei City. Even if I am a civil servant, how can I stay in the capital with peace of mind when I don't see you intact?"
"Brother, don't worry, we are all fine." Lu Zhiyun said, "By the way, let me introduce to you, this is my new disciple Li Guyuan."
Li Guyuan saluted Lu Shaoyu.
Lu Shaoyu glanced at him and nodded.
Compared with Lu Zhiyun's gentleness, Lu Shaoyu is indifferent and inhumane. However, Li Guyuan can completely understand the cold arrogance of these 'strong men', but he is a little curious about the same face. Why is one so powerful that he can conquer the country and the other is so powerful?
