Youzhou.

Yanjing City.

It's not really a city at all!

Because it currently only has city walls.

You can see the endless city walls that are endless!

However, there were many villages scattered outside the city wall, which Su Muxin did not expect.

Most of the residents in these villages migrated here from other places in Yingzhou and Youzhou.

In the winter of the 22nd year of Zhaohua, Youzhou and Yingzhou in Beimo Road suffered from snow disasters and nearly 30 people were displaced.

Li Chenan asked Wen Boiyu to give the order to gather all the victims in this place in Youzhou, and let them build Yanjing City with work instead of relief.

But the imperial treasury was empty.

This tall and majestic city wall was repaired, but the imperial court did not have any extra money to build other buildings in the city wall.

A huge amount of money was spent to build this wall.

All that money was collected from the homes of corrupt officials after the fall of Ji Tai's family.

These victims will be fine once they repair the city wall.

The food allocated by the imperial court is getting less and less. You can't starve to death, right?

This city probably still needs to be repaired.

The land outside the city was flat and fertile, so the victims simply settled here.

The once wasteland has been reclaimed.

When Su Muxin led Ning Wuzu through here, he even doubted whether he had arrived in Jiangnan!
Because those fields are well planted!

The rice in the fields has blossomed and is full of ears, and there are many farmers working in the fields!

What appeared in Su Muxin's eyes was clearly an extremely beautiful picture.

But he didn't have time to go to the rice fields and chat with the farmers.

He led the team and walked past the shocked eyes of the farmers.

They came to the gate of the city.

There are no soldiers on the city wall.

But there is a chair at the entrance to the south city.

Lying on the chair was a man wearing a torn vest.

This man's face was covered with a tattered straw hat!

It seemed that the sound of horse hooves disturbed his dream.

He lazily raised a hand and spread his straw hat a foot away, looking impatiently at the man standing in front of him.

His pupils gradually focused, and his eyes gradually opened wider!
His mouth even opened slightly.

He suddenly jumped up.

"Surnamed Su!"

"I call you uncle!"

Su Muxin grinned: "Qin Rigang, are you okay?"

Qin Rigang's cheek muscles were bulging, and he seemed to be filled with hatred for Su Mu.

He pointed at Su Muxin and said angrily:
"It's okay!"

"The young master asked me and my wife to send you a letter. You tell me that the young master means that my husband and I should come to this place!"

"You said that the young master asked us and my wife to guard this city... Show me, is this a city?"

"I still take it seriously!"

"When I get here, I will know that I have been tricked by your boy!"

"Do you know how I have spent these past year or so?!"

Su Muxin was not angry at all.

Because it was indeed him who tricked Qin Rigang and his wife into coming here.

They really let the two of them defend the city!

There is nothing in the city, and what needs to be defended is actually the sneak attack soldiers from the Great Wilderness Kingdom in the north who may come from Death Valley!
There are no troops stationed here.

There are only the [-] farmers who built the city wall here!

They are absolutely unable to resist the invasion of the deserters.

Of course, neither could Qin Rigang and his wife.

But Qin Rigang and his wife are very good at running. They run fast!

Once they learn that the deserters are invading, they will inevitably come to the northern frontier army at Yanyun Pass.

They will come with news.

What Su Muxin needs is for them to report a message. "Old Qin, don't be excited. I remember that you are carrying tens of thousands of taels of silver notes given to you by the regent. You and your wife should be happy and happy here, right?"

Qin Rigang took a deep breath and said, "Xiaoyao is a fart!"

"Look at this damn place, what's the use of holding money?"

"Tell me what I can buy?"

"Did you bring wine? I haven't had a drop of wine in more than a year."

Su Muxin laughed again, "I did bring it, it's still Hua Pingchun, but now you can't drink it!"

Qin Rigang frowned: "Why?"

"Because your young master is coming soon!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Rigang immediately turned his head and looked south.

But there is no sign of the young master anywhere.

"Are you trying to lie to me again?"

"This time, I really didn't lie to you. It's just that the regent is coming from Annan Road. Even if we go non-stop, it will take another day or two."

"Then drinking now, what does it have to do with the young master arriving in a day or two?"

Su Muxin took a step forward, with a solemn look on her face:
"Why don't you ask your young master why he is here in this useless place instead of returning to Kyoto?"

Qin Rigang was startled, "...Look at this Yanjing City?"

"This city is quite beautiful. Let me tell you, Ning Chuchu, the fourth princess of Ning Kingdom,"

Su Muxin raised her hand and pointed to the north: "She is probably in Death Valley with Ning Xiu soldiers at the moment! And behind her is the iron cavalry of the Huangren!"

Qin Rigang was shocked: "What did you say?"

"Why did the fourth princess go to that place?"

"Young Master is here to save her?"

Su Muxin nodded: "Yes, Regent Feige sent me a letter, ordering me to lead two thousand Ningwu soldiers to set off first..."

"Now, I need a guide."

"I know you and your wife will not be idle here... There are 30 farmers here, and there are always some hunters."

"Even if you two are idle, I think some hunters have entered Death Valley!"

"I am in a hurry!"

Su Muxin patted Qin Rigang's shoulder:

"You should understand the consequences of the fourth princess falling into the hands of the deserter!"

"Now... it's up to you whether you can become a Japanese steel!"

Qin Rigang took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards the city wall.

A knife is leaning against the city wall.

He took the knife and turned around and walked towards Su Muxin: "The name of Death Valley is wrong. It should be called Death Swamp!"

"My wife and I have gone in several times, but you...you can't!"

Now it was Su Mu's turn to be puzzled: "Why can't I?"

"Because although you can run an army, your martial arts... are really ugly!"

"If you want to cross that swamp, you must have martial arts at the upper level of the second realm. Which realm and level are you at?"

Su Muxin was speechless.

The two thousand Ningwu soldiers in his hands don't have such skills!
Only Murong He can.

But what was the point of just two or three people in the past?
"Is there no other way?"

"Yes, that means cutting down wood to build a pontoon bridge. But I guess after you build the pontoon bridge, you will have to collect the bodies of the fourth princess."

Su Muxin was at a loss what to do, "This... what should I do?"

"Let's go and have a look first."

"I remember seeing Ning Xiuzu when I went to Yanyunguan, but let alone the girls chosen by the fourth princess, they have some martial arts skills."

"If they can really enter Death Valley and find a foothold...you have to think about it this way. I am afraid that there are very few cavalrymen who know martial arts."

Qin Rigang carried his sword and led Ning Wu soldiers to the north.

"Then the most likely situation is a stalemate between the two sides."

"The fourth princess can't get through, and the barren people can't get in."

"It all depends on who can outlast whom!"

Qin Rigang suddenly stopped: "You only have two thousand soldiers. Even if you want to build a bridge, it is too slow. Wait until I call more people."

In front of Su Muxin's shocked gaze, Qin Rigang flew into the air!

He fell on the city wall

He shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Zhuge Buliang...bring your brother and do me a favor!" (End of Chapter)
