Chapter 1591 Return to the ship
From the moment Tang Feng Company decided to help transport supplies to the ten countries in the Central Plains, Tang Lianyu knew that he would definitely be targeted by some people.
But she didn't expect that Anxiangtang would actually know that the golden hairpin of Thousand-Faced Phoenix was in her hand.
If Anxiangtang's killing of Tang Lianyu was just a business matter, then snatching the gold hairpin from her hand would be a family matter to decide the next chief helmsman.
If money is gone, you can make it again, but if you miss the right thing, you will have no chance to go further.
In other words, after learning the news, the various branches of Anxiang Hall will definitely pursue Tang Lianyu with 200% enthusiasm.
Zhou Yuxuan brought nearly forty people out this time. He thought they could protect Tang Lianyu like an iron bucket, but now it seems that it is not enough.
However, when it comes to increasing manpower, you have to find someone you can trust, otherwise you will be inviting wolves into the house.
Rather than this, let’s decide where to go next.
It is most dangerous for Tang Lianyu to stay on land. As long as the people of Anxiang Hall catch Tang Lianyu's traces, they can easily arrange an assassination.
In contrast, if Tang Lianyu returned to the ship, the only means available to the Anxiang Hall people would be to poison him or sneak onto the ship secretly.
The former requires careful attention, while the latter is actually very difficult.
Therefore, Zhou Yuxuan felt that it was safest to let Tang Lianyu return to the ship as soon as possible.
Her ship was bombed, but Tang Feng Company had more than one big ship. That's why Zhou Yuxuan thinks that we should return to the city now.
People from Anxiang Hall have already assassinated people once and caused a lot of noise. Now there are soldiers patrolling everywhere in the city. Anxiang Hall should not appear again at this juncture.
After returning to the city, wait in a spacious place like the dock for the arrival of the next big ship from Tang Feng Company.
Because Tang Feng Company's ships transport supplies along fixed routes, it is estimated that the next ship will arrive soon.
Tang Lianyu will be safe when she returns to the ship.
But Tang Lianyu did not agree with Zhou Yuxuan's idea.
As the person who knows the schedule of his own ship best, Tang Lianyu said that the next ship will probably arrive in half a month. It would be too dangerous to stay in the city for such a long time. After all, it is impossible to let everyone eat and sleep on the dock. Half a month.
When the killer didn't come, the man was sick.
There is no guarantee of safety if you go to the inn. Even if you ask the army for help, there is no guarantee that killers or spies from Anxiang Hall will infiltrate.
Therefore, Tang Lianyu believed that instead of waiting back to the city, she would rather take the overland route and continue on to the next town.
The journey took about twenty days, and by the time they arrived, the transport ship from Tang Feng Company had almost arrived.
There may be dangers on the road, but it's not impossible if you avoid people and take a side road.
Moreover, Tang Lianyu also said that she had a medicinal material transaction that needed to be negotiated in that town. It was a medicine that was in short supply and sent to the front line. If the supply of medicinal materials to the front line was delayed, that would not be possible.
The two sides argued for a while, but in the end Zhou Yuxuan couldn't defeat Tang Lianyu and agreed to take a small road to the next town.
Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi naturally walked together, which was also an important reason why Zhou Yuxuan agreed to take this risk. After all, he had seen with his own eyes how capable these two people were.
What's more, Yang Yiyi is protected by an immortal. Zhou Yuxuan saw it with his own eyes when he was in the Tianlang Sect. Although he didn't know the details of Li Chengqi, with such an old man watching, it was a double insurance.
So early the next morning, the sky finally cleared up, and everyone simply packed up and hit the road.
By the way, the Anxiangtang killers, including Tian Jing, were all thrown into the nearby ravine by the people of the Sixteenth Village, and they will probably turn into wild dog feces soon.
Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi deliberately walked at the end of the team, keeping an eye out for someone following them. Yang Yiyi looked like she had lice on her body, and would twist from time to time.
"What are you twisting?"
"Brother Li, those clothes are precious, but when I wear other people's clothes, I always feel..." "I feel uncomfortable?"
Although it was worn on the outside of the inner coat and underneath the outer cover with cloth in the middle, Yang Yiyi felt uncomfortable when she thought that it was worn by Tian Jing.
There were no outsiders around anyway, so Li Chengqi said casually:
"If you don't wait until I wash it in the washing machine at night, I will definitely wash it clean."
Since it is the Celestial Silkworm Armor, it should not be damaged by washing...
–‐‐——–‐‐——
At the same time, Viola opened her eyes on the bed.
Yang Yiyi got up earlier than Viola, so Li Chengqi always used to check on Yang Yiyi first in the morning.
As usual, Viola combed her hair and dressed with the help of the maid, and then ran to the chapel for half an hour of devout prayer.
Since they were on the march, there was no need for an authentic temple. Viola specially found a tent to set up, and someone was responsible for transporting and carrying religious artifacts such as holy emblems and statues.
As long as we set up camp, we will definitely build this temporary temple.
After praying, Viola went to have breakfast and then started working on the documents.
The army will rest here for a few days, but is in no hurry to leave.
Most of the so-called documents came from the rear occupied areas. Viola left behind many new nobles who performed outstandingly in the war, and the contents of the documents also reported on the management of the occupied areas.
There are also a small number of documents from China.
Viola's army is advancing along the northern coastline of the Subia Demonic Kingdom. This is much easier than when they were in the Tandelon Demonic Kingdom. The supplies from the country can arrive in less than a week as long as they are on board the ship.
By the way, I also brought over the documents that Viola needed in China.
At this time, Aldai with a pair of panda eyes also came in. She said she was afraid that Viola would be assassinated by the Seven Apostles, so she came here to act as a bodyguard, but she still spent most of her time doing her own research.
I feel like I'm just bored in the Silver City and want to follow Viola around.
However, as long as Aldai has nothing to do during the day, she will still stay with Viola, and she will also deliberately set up a barrier around Viola at night. Overall, she is quite competent.
After reading a few domestic documents, Viola ignored the rhetoric asking her to withdraw her troops. However, after seeing the domestic report sent by Wendy as the prime minister, Viola had to face this problem seriously.
The economy of Avarus is indeed in trouble.
The country was already in ruins, and the war started soon after the country was restored.
Although the country can receive compensation, it is indeed not poor, but now it is not a question of whether you have money, but a question of not being able to produce enough supplies.
Originally, Viola thought she could hold on for at least another half year, but now after reading Wendy's report, she estimated that the limit would be three or four months later.
No matter how the fight ends, Viola must withdraw her troops.
The biggest problem lies in food. The crop seeds that Li Chengqi once gave to Viola have just begun to be promoted, and they have not yet reached a large scale and have not matured yet.
So, what about plundering the enemy's food and fodder?
Yes, but it won't last long.
Viola was a little worried that her plan was blocked. At this time, the guard knight outside the door knocked on the door:
"Your Majesty, the church has sent a package."
