Hearing the human voice, Meng Hai's fear gradually dissipated even though he was pinned to the ground.
The sudden situation frightened him so much that he thought he was going to explain it here today.
There are very few people who can remain calm between life and death, and Meng Hai's reaction is not embarrassing.
But when he heard the sound of people talking, he was sure that the ones attacking him were not zombies, and he felt at ease.
"We are human beings, not monsters. Don't make a mistake!" Meng Hai reminded quickly, for fear that the other party would misjudge.
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
Meng Hai felt more at ease after hearing the other party's question, as long as he explained clearly.
"I am the commander-in-chief of the Chengde garrison. That area has been occupied by monsters, so they escaped to Yuanyang!"
Yang Qing felt a little surprised when he heard that he was the commander-in-chief of the Dusi, and then he asked: "Who is the commander-in-chief of the Longyou Dusi?"
"Ding Hong, commander of the Longyou capital!"
"Who is the commanding officer who is left behind?"
"Chen Anming!"
"Who is the commander of the people who are left behind?"
"Gao Yongfa!"
Meng Hai blurted out three questions in a row, which made Yang Qing believe his identity.
"Let them go!"
After Yang Qing's instructions, the soldiers let go of the two people on the ground and retreated, still on alert.
He got up from the ground, immediately wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with an embarrassed smile: "We are all our own people!"
But no one paid attention to him, which made it even more embarrassing.
"You said you came from Chengde, what's the situation in Chengde now?" Yang Qing asked.
"It's been taken over by monsters, and so is Tongchang County!"
"The county seat has been occupied? What happened outside the county seat? Are there any surviving people?"
"Some people survived, but they were all trapped in the village. They would die from lack of food within a year at most!"
Yang Qing nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
"Are you Yuanyang garrison?" Apart from this possibility, Meng Hai could not think of anything else.
"It used to be!"
Yang Qing's answer made Meng Hai even more confused, so he then asked: "Which guard are you in charge of now?"
"Prince Yong's Mansion!"
Just after Yang Qing finished speaking, a soldier on the side reminded him: "Brother Yang, you look familiar!"
After they left the city, they brought a fixed amount of food, so every bit of food could not be wasted.
"Hurry back and watch!" Yang Qing said to the person who spoke.
So two people left the team and quickly walked to the stove. Today, these two people were cooking.
"Prince Yong's Mansion? Why does it belong to Prince Yong's Mansion? This makes no sense!" Meng Hai finally couldn't help but said.
He knew something about the situation in Prince Yong's Mansion. This vassal king had just arrived. Even if monsters broke out, how could he take control of the army?
Could it be that the Qianhu garrison in Yuanyang and the Dusi gang are all stupid?
"Since you have come to Yuanyang, you should understand the supremacy of the prince. Without his wise leadership, the whole of Yuanyang would have fallen!"
"So I warn you, you must respect the prince, otherwise I will kill you!"
Hearing Yang Qing's serious words, Meng Hai felt that it was even more unreasonable. He just said something unreasonable and did not mention King Yong directly. Did the man in front of him need to warn him like this?
Meng Hai is definitely a smart man who can survive among the zombies, so he knows that the key lies in King Yong.
Maybe this person is really capable and led Yuanyang's army and people to successfully resist the monster, so it's normal for him to be respected by the people below.
So Meng Hai apologized repeatedly: "I was rude, brother, please forgive me!"
But then he added: "Brother, please tell me what kind of person this King Yong is, so that we can respect him!"
"Brother Yang, the noodles are ready!"
Hearing the shouts from the chariot, Yang Qing called to his men: "Let's go eat!"
The soldiers rushed towards the chariot. Although Meng Hai was ignored, he still followed him with Ma Shan.
The military chariot that appeared in front of them made Meng Hai curious, but they soon figured out its purpose.
With this thing, if you are on duty in the wild, you will be safe even if you encounter monsters... Meng Hai said secretly.
After picking up the noodles, Yang Qing started to eat them, making everyone on the sidelines become greedy immediately, but it was a pity that he didn't share the noodles.
"Brother, we came to Yuanyang to escape, please show us a clear way!" Meng Hai said very solemnly.
"Yuanyang is only five miles away from here. You can go directly and say that you are here to escape, and someone will take you to the city for resettlement!" Yang Qing replied.
Although it sounds simple, he doesn't know what is going on there, so Meng Hai said: "When will brother return to the city, I and you can go back together!"
Yang Qing couldn't help laughing and replied: "We will be stationed here for nine days, do you want to wait?"
Meng Hai couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that Yuanyang did have many systems and rules that he didn't know about.
"In this case, then my two brothers should go to Yuanyang by themselves. It's just our weapons. Can you return them to us?"
For fear of Yang Qing misunderstanding, Meng Hai immediately said: "There may be dangers on the road, so we can use it for self-defense!"
"Don't worry, there will never be any danger. All monsters within a radius of twenty miles of Yuanyang have been eliminated!"
At this point, Yang Qing took a sip of noodles and then continued: "And the palace has an order that no one is allowed to hold weapons except the troops under his jurisdiction!"
Having said this, Meng Hai had nothing to say.
"Okay, let's go to Yuanyang now!"
Although Ma Shan had good intentions, under Meng Hai's gaze, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction.
When they had taken seven or eight steps, they heard Yang Qing's voice coming from behind: "Remember, you can say anything you want when you go to Yuanyang, but you can never speak ill of the prince!"
If the other party is not a military leader, Yang Qing will never remind him more.
"Thank you!" Meng Hai turned around and clasped his fists.
Then the two of them rushed towards Yuanyang, while Yang Qing and his men continued to eat.
"Brother Yang, these two guys are quite capable. They were able to come from Chengde to Yuanyang!" A soldier on the side praised.
Yang Qing took a sip of noodle soup and said slowly: "It can be seen that these two people must have gone through many hardships to get here, so I asked them to keep their mouths shut, otherwise they will bring trouble to themselves!"
As for Meng Hai and the other two, after leaving the dock, they saw a large area of wheat fields that had been harvested.
Sure enough, they didn't encounter any zombies along the way. Instead, they were stopped once by patrolling soldiers and were allowed to go after questioning.
The two of them walked for about ten minutes before finally arriving at the north gate of Yuanyang.
At this moment, at the north gate, there is a carriage carrying a load of grain going to the city, while an empty carriage is coming out of the city.
There are soldiers guarding the city wall. Under the protection of the tall city wall, the city must be safe.
"Brother, we are indeed here, Yuanyang City is still there!" Mashan said excitedly.
Meng Hai suppressed the joy in his heart and said loudly: "Let's go into the city!"
