Chapter 857: Veterans will not die, but they will come back if called upon! Just one person is worth a thousand words!
Qiu Liao's pupils suddenly condensed: "There are really reinforcements?!"
But what followed was deep anger: "Does the imperial court not know that when the situation is chaotic, the soldiers The harm to the victims is worse than that of the earthquake!"
"Who advised the king to send troops to reinforce Zheng County?"
"Could it be that I am Zheng? The suffering of the people of the county is still not enough!”
Since ancient times, the imperial court has not sent soldiers to directly participate in disaster relief, but only to counter rebellions after disasters. This is not only because this will consume a lot of money and food, but also because the soldiers are difficult to control.
The troops that go deep into the disaster area will definitely not bring help and hope to the victims.
It will be pain and despair!
Almost everyone knows this.
So not only Qiu Liao's face was extremely ugly, but all the victims who had gathered outside Zheng County for refuge all looked terrified.
Whether it was those who had the intention to cause trouble just now or those who were willing to obey Qiu Liao's orders, they secretly protected their families, holding the sharp blade in their right hand, and were ready to fight to the death!
Only Lifu was still standing on the grain cart, looking into the distance with expectation.
He had never seen the general's flag in the distance, but the seal characters on the general's flag gave Lifu a vague sense of déjà vu.
Finally, Li Fu saw the two familiar seal characters clearly and cheered excitedly: "It's Mr. Chang'an!"
"Mr. Chang'an is here to save us!"
Qiu Liao was stunned and quickly climbed up the stone, squinting his already cloudy eyes and looking at the army in the distance.
He finally saw clearly the flag floating at the front of the supporting army.
On the general's flag with a black background, there are two red Qin seals embroidered on it -
Chang'an! ! !
In the past, Ying Chengyu always stood under the banner every time he went on an expedition. This is the first time that this flag has appeared in this world.
But Qiu Liao knows that no one in the world would dare to pretend to be Ying Chengxiang!
Qiu Liao, who had been extremely nervous since the earthquake, finally felt that he had found his backbone.
His eyes could no longer hold the tears, and Qiu Liao, whose face was full of tears, turned to everyone and shouted in a hissing voice: "It's Lord Chang'an!"
"Second and third sons, don't worry, it's Lord Chang'an!" ”
“It’s Lord Chang’an who has led his troops to save us”
"All the people in Zheng County, please go with me to greet Lord Chang'an!"
Hearing Qiu Liao's cry, the panic and fear in the eyes of the victims were replaced by shock.
Chang'an Jun? !
How could someone as noble as Lord Chang'an be willing to take such a risk to come to the place where the earth dragon turned over to rescue us!
"Really? Mr. Sun, you know the Chinese characters, please see if that general flag is the general flag of Lord Chang'an!"
"It's Chang'an! It's indeed Lord Chang'an who is here! Elders no longer need to hide, come out quickly to greet Lord Chang'an!"
When the disaster victims who knew how to read read out the seal characters on the flag, As more and more victims confirmed the identity of the visitor, more and more victims cried out.
Many craftsman-made things such as the Chang'an plow, the Chang'an cart, and the golden juice for dung treatment have long been spread in Guanzhong, and have long penetrated into the lives of every Guanzhong person.
They do not believe that any army can do no harm to the victims, unless this army belongs to the Lord of Chang'an!
They believe that Lord Chang'an, who is willing to work hard for them to live a good life, will not take away the last food in their hands, but will only give them hope of living!
All the victims flocked to Ying Chengyu, shouting with tears of joy:
"We are waiting to welcome Lord Chang'an!"
Jiang Qi slowly stopped, and under the flag, wearing leather armor , Ying Chengyu, wearing a bronze helmet, walked up a small slope.
Maintaining his shoulder-to-shoulder posture, Ying Chengyu greeted each victim with a gentle smile and shouted loudly and firmly: "I lead two thousand guards and one thousand soldiers. , hundreds of disciples, a hundred ministers and many righteous people came with food and supplies."
"I have discovered a route to connect the inside and outside of Zheng County."
"Before sunrise tomorrow, three thousand strong men will cross this mountain road, carrying more food, grass and baggage."
"There is no love for natural disasters!"
"I call Da Qin Chang'an The name of the king guarantees to all the people of Qin who are affected by the disaster."
"No one in Qin will die of cold or starvation when the earth dragon turns over."
In the face of thousands of soldiers! After repeating it, Ying Chengyu's cry was clearly heard by all the victims.
The road is clear. If nothing goes wrong, they can follow the road opened by Ying Chengyu and leave the earthquake area first.
With enough food, they no longer need to worry about starving to death, nor do they need to risk their lives to fight for food from the government office.
Most of the soldiers who came to the rescue were direct descendants of Ying Zheng or Ying Chengyu. They had status and wealth, and Ying Chengyu was personally watching them, so they would not be able to do evil things like robbing the victims.
The most worrying problem of the victims was solved by Ying Chengyu with one word, and an indescribable and unprecedented sense of security came to everyone's heart!
With no one taking the lead or organizing, more than ten thousand victims kneeled down in front of Ying Chengyu and sincerely shouted: "Thank you, Lord Chang'an!"
Ying Chengyu stood on the slope and accepted the gifts from all the victims calmly.
Putting the iron shovel and grain on his left and right shoulders on the ground, Ying Chengyu asked in a deep voice: "Is there anyone who has ever served under my command?"
Lifu was the first to rush out. The crowd shouted loudly: "Captain Su Jiao has five hundred commanders, and Li Fu is the prisoner of Zheng County."
"Meet the commander!"
Ying Chengxuan's brain was spinning rapidly, until Li Fu Standing still in front of Ying Chengyu, Ying Chengyu smiled and nodded: "You are the son of two naughty people?"
Lifu looked up at Ying Chengyu in disbelief, and saw Ying Chengyu's gentle gaze.
Although Lifu had gone on three expeditions with Ying Chengyu, Lifu never expected that the name of an unknown person like him could reach Yingchengyu's ears, or even be remembered by Yingchengyu!
Li Fu's eyes were red and he suddenly handed over his hands: "Father, it is Er Nao!"
Ying Chengyu praised with emotion: "In the Battle of Nanyang, the scene when Er Nao charged into the battle and died, My memory is still fresh.”
“Nai Weng’s name is Er Na, but in my eyes, you and your son are both husbands!” Lifu cried like a child and couldn’t say anything more. What.
Hearing Lifu being praised so highly by Ying Chengyu, the other victims who had served under Ying Chengyu couldn't stand any longer and lined up one after another in front of Ying Chengyu.
“Commander Mengwu’s subordinates and Chaofu, please pay homage to the commander!”
“Master Yunmengze’s master, E Qi’s subordinates, are the vanguard generals and pay homage to the commander!”
“Dudu Lieutenant..."
When every veteran comes out, Ying Chengyu will smile encouragingly.
If by chance he could remember this person, Ying Chengyu would praise him based on his characteristics.
If he really couldn't remember this person, Ying Chengyu would praise him for his bravery.
Under such a scene, even though everyone knew why Ying Chengyu summoned them, they still couldn't resist the call from Ying Chengyu!
Until the four hundred and fifty-one veterans lined up in front of Ying Chengyu, Ying Chengyu finally showed a satisfied smile: "The second and third sons can still remember me and are still willing to fight for me. What's wrong with me?" Comfort it!”
"Everyone knows that Zheng County is not my hometown, nor is it my old place."
"My visit to the place where the earth dragon turned around is not just to rescue Zheng County. The people of the county are here to rescue all the people affected by the disaster."
"But it is difficult for me to do this with the strength of my soldiers."
"You, please do it again! Will I die?"
All the veterans shouted without hesitation: "I am willing to fight to the death for the commander!"
Ying Chengyu nodded happily: "Good!"
Then Ying Chengyu shouted solemnly: "Pass this order from the emperor!"
"All disaster-stricken areas will temporarily comply with military regulations. Act according to the law and obey my orders."
"Anyone who is over six feet five inches tall, under sixty years old, and not pregnant, regardless of gender, will be subject to corvee service!"
" You, all of you, will be promoted to your former official positions and command all the corvees.”
"Two to five hundred Lord Lifu!"
Lifu choked with sobs and shouted: "The general is here!"
Ying Chengxiao said solemnly: "I have brought food and grass, but I have brought you food and grass. But he didn’t bring any cooking utensils.”
“He ordered Lifu’s troops to immediately search for cooking utensils and bury pots on the spot to make rice. We must ensure that all the people affected by the disaster are protected from hunger.”
Lifu! He suddenly handed over his hand: "Wei!"
Without wasting any time, Lifu immediately turned around and shouted: "All the jailers and prisoners under the jurisdiction of the Zheng County Prison will be merged into the general's department."
"You, you, and the three columns of Bianbian They were also incorporated into the general's department and assigned their own positions according to their titles!"
Dozens of the people selected by Lifu were actually the ones who just wanted to commit chaos and rob food.
When they were selected by Li Fu, they subconsciously felt a little dissatisfied and wanted to shout angrily.
But when their eyes glanced at Ying Chengyu standing on the slope, and then at the grains that were constantly being transported by Ying Chengyu's subordinates, they finally suppressed all their complaints and dissatisfaction and behaved obediently. Shun followed Li Fu obediently.
Ying Chengyu turned his eyes to another veteran: "Wang Zhong, Lord of Five Hundred!"
"I order your troops to enter Zheng City along the north gate of Zheng County, and shout loudly along the main road, "Everyone is here!" If someone responds, rescue immediately!"
Wang Zhongye raised his hands solemnly: "Wei!"
"Follow me, go back and save people!"
The people who are most familiar with the local area must be the local people.
As Ying Chengyu continued to point out generals, a group of disaster victims was formed on the spot under the organization of local veterans, and each one became busy performing their respective duties.
Thousands of men and women poured into Zheng County from all directions. They kept calling out. Every time they heard an echo, they went to dig and rescue with tools.
When Meng Yi was in custody, he put down the pole on his shoulder, and what he saw was a lively scene of mutual help and true love in the world.
Meng Yi couldn't help but smile: "Everyone in the world says that I, the head of Qin Dynasty and Guizhou Province, are like tigers and wolves."
"After looking at it today, I think that I, the capital of Qin Dynasty and Guizhou Province, have great love. ”
"I think even if we didn't come across mountains and rivers, Zheng County would have been able to overcome the difficulties because of the mutual help!"
Meng Yi really wanted to bring those great scholars over to take a closer look.
The scene in front of me made more than a dozen pairs of eyes blind with tears!
When Qiu Liao heard this, he shook his head bitterly: "The reason why Lieutenant General Meng Lang was able to see such a scene was not because Nao Shizi had great love in his heart."
"But all of them are. Because Lord Changan!”
"Because the Lord of Chang'an arrived with food, Li Shu knew that the internal and external communication was not interrupted and there was no fear of starvation. Therefore, his anxiety and fear suddenly diminished, and he no longer had the determination to fight for his life."
" Because of Lord Chang'an's reputation, the thieves did not dare to use weapons and were willing to obey orders. "
"To be honest with you, before Lord Chang'an arrived, we, the people of Zheng County, were almost in turmoil, and we, the officers and soldiers of Zheng County, were fighting each other with swords. Ah! "
Ying Chengyu's arrangement is not outstanding, and his ability to seize people's power is far better than Qiu Liao's.
But the reputation of Ying Chengyu who fought out of the sea of blood from the mountain of corpses and the food that Ying Chengyu personally carried are worth a thousand words.
The original unstable factors such as Chao Fu and Kuo Fu were immediately transformed into the sharpest knives for disaster relief due to the arrival of Ying Chengyu!
Qiu Liao faced Ying Chengyu and raised his hands with gratitude: "I'm here to thank you, Lord Chang'an, on behalf of all the people of Zheng County!"
However, Ying Chengyu waved his hand with a slight frown. : "In the face of a major disaster, don't use excessive courtesy."
"Tell me immediately, what is the current situation in Zheng County?!"
