There is a wall outside Zhuangzi and a circle of ditches outside the wall. These are the two defenses of Sujiazhuang.
But now, these fortifications are useless.
Why? Because today, the first batch of troops from the palace have arrived here, and the surrounding zombies have been cleared away.
Standing on the wall of Sujiazhuang, looking at the subordinates returning one after another, Xu Yu said with a smile: "Except Mr. Su, all the monsters around Zhuangzi have been cleared for you. This is a meeting gift from me!"
At this moment, Su Pinghe couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He was very glad for his choice. The Prince Yong's Mansion was very powerful.
He had just seen it all. Xu Yu's army, working together to kill zombies, was as easy as cutting through mud with a knife.
I saw Su Pinghe cupping his hands and saying: "On behalf of the people in Zhuangzi, I would like to thank Xu Baihu!"
Xu Yu turned around, smiled slightly and said, "You should thank the prince!"
Su Pinghe suddenly realized it and said quickly: "Yes, yes, your Excellency is saying... it is time to thank the prince for his kindness!"
At this moment, the guards returned one after another. There were more than a hundred people in their group, but only ten of them were able to ride horses.
These soldiers on horseback all acted as messengers, and sometimes they also acted as scouts.
"Master Su, is lunch ready?"
Su Pinghe glanced at the young man behind him. After the latter nodded, Su Pinghe replied: "Everything is ready. A dozen cauldrons will be fired at the same time, which is enough to provide food and drink for the palace's army!"
Xu Yu said calmly: "Everyone of you will write down how much food you used, and the palace will return it to you when the time comes!"
Now that the situation in the palace has improved, all supplies are no longer confiscated, and all the personal finances at the time of rescue can be retained.
"Thank you, sir!" Su Pinghe replied.
At this time, the soldiers at the front have already reached the village gate. These are Xu Yu's subordinates.
"Brothers are all tired. Food and drink have been prepared in the village. Let's go eat!"
Following Xu Yu's words, smiles appeared on the faces of the guards. Nothing could make them happier than cooking at this moment.
Even at this moment, the guards were still in neat formation, and the three general banners led their subordinates into the village.
In Zhuangzi, all men, women, old and young were hiding in the house.
Bandits pass like a comb, and soldiers pass like a grate. This is how ordinary people viewed the army in most ancient times.
An army with strict military discipline like the Yue Family Army was really rare in ancient times.
So at this moment, the people in Zhuangzi were instinctively afraid of the army in front of them, and they were no less afraid of zombies.
Of course, this fear is due to lack of understanding of the royal family's strict military discipline.
At this moment, the guards lined up neatly and came to the drying area in Zhuangzi, where they ate.
The white-flour steamed buns had been steamed, but no one moved. They lined up under the big locust tree, waiting for orders from their superiors.
"Long live His Highness King Yong!"
Following the shout of a general bannerman, all the guards present shouted loudly: "Long live His Highness King Yong!"
"Long live His Royal Highness King Yong!" the leader of the flag shouted again.
The guards were even more excited and shouted with all their strength: "Long live His Highness King Yong!"
The voice is full of reverence, and everyone who hears it for the first time will be shocked.
In the past, people in Sujiazhuang were numb and not very angry.
But at this moment, this shouting was like dry wood meeting a fierce fire, and it also sparked a little fire in the hearts of the people in the village.
Although it is very dangerous outside, with the palace's army there, they do have a chance to survive.
Although they are still afraid of the army, this fear has faded a lot in the hearts of the villagers.
"Let's eat!"
The guards were still lining up, taking away the food one after another, and the scene was orderly.
Xu Yu stood far away and muttered: "Logically speaking, they should come over too!"
Who should come over? Of course it is Cui Xingan and Chen Yuhe, the two people Zhao Yanxun pointed out.
Next, the three of them will work together to figure out how to fight this battle.
The military order from the Privy Council made it clear that in addition to defeating the rebels, the horses must also be captured.
There are three to four hundred cavalry in the place. If you can't defeat them, you can escape. It's very difficult to annihilate them all.
"Sir, Chen Baihu and Cui Fu Qianhu are here!"
Hearing the report from behind, Xu Yu turned around and asked, "Did they come together?"
"Exactly, and they are also escorting a large amount of military rations!"
Nodding, Xu Yu said to Su Pinghe beside him: "Executive member Su, let's go... let's go and greet them!"
"Xu Baihu please!" Su Pinghe made way.
Before leaving, Su Pinghe ordered the villagers to continue cooking to provide for the upcoming army.
It can be said that it is these gathering places of survivors along the way that allow the royal army to go all out to clean up the zombies regardless of logistics.
When Xu and Su came to the outskirts of Zhuangzi, they saw a large army approaching, numbering about four hundred.
The two people facing each other were Cui Xing'an, the deputy from the 100th household, and Chen Yuhe from the 100th household.
This team also included more than a dozen carts loaded with grain.
Fortunately, Sujiazhuang is next to the pass, otherwise it would be a lot of trouble to transport these grains.
"Old Chen, Cui Qianhu... you are finally here!" Xu Yu greeted them.
Jumping off his horse, Chen Yuhe said with a smile: "Old Xu, we are going to do something big this time!"
"That's natural!" Xu Yu smiled even more.
Cui Xing'an also dismounted his horse at this moment, looked around and said: "Xu Baihu, you really can't stay idle. You have wiped out all the monsters outside Zhuangzi!"
"It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning!" Xu Yu said modestly.
"By the way, this is Member Su, Master Su!"
After being introduced, Su Pinghe didn't dare to make excuses at all, and quickly said: "I have met these two adults!"
At this time, Xu Yu said: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to Zhuangzi first!"
After leading the army into Zhuangzi, the soldiers were placed separately, and the Sujiazhuang was immediately packed.
Those who needed to eat were eaten, and those who needed to unload the goods were unloaded. Everything was in order and did not appear to be scattered due to the large number of people.
Xu Yu and the other three came to a room that was specially set aside for them to discuss matters.
"Two of you, the prince has appointed me as the commander-in-chief of this battle. I hope you can help me a lot!"
The status of these people all comes from Zhao Yanxun's authority.
If you want to convince others, moving out of Zhao Yanxun is undoubtedly the easiest and easiest thing to do.
Just listen to Cui Xing'an say: "Xu Baihu, don't worry, the prince has an order, how dare we disobey it? You just take charge of the order!"
Xu Yu said with a smile: "If you don't accept the order, let's discuss it!"
Immediately afterwards, Xu Yu took out a map from his arms.
On this map, the locations of villages and towns in Andu County are marked, and the landscape of mountains and rivers is also briefly outlined.
Yuanyang is the seat of Longyou's military administration. The government has information on all the prefectures and counties in the county, so a map is naturally indispensable.
