The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 869

[Chapter 869 The unwilling beggar]

Qiu Ning Town is not far from Qiu Ning Fucheng, but it is not close either.

Just arrived in Qiuning Town, just rested for a while, and then headed to Qiuning Fucheng?

Even if the wolf riders could bear it, the war horses couldn’t hold it back!

After all, a centurion couldn’t help it, and came to Qiyan Gong’s side, and whispered: “General, the war horses need to rest and need fodder.” He

had just spoken, but he hadn’t said a few words yet.

As if Qiyan Gong knew what he was going to say, he waved his hand and said: “The villages along the way can provide some supplies.”

When the centurion heard this, he also knew that his general must take a look at Qiuning City.

So he said nothing more and just responded.

“Yes, General!”

After resting for about half an hour, the horses regained some energy.

The wolf riders mounted their horses again and began to march.

After just three sticks of incense, I saw a village appearing in front of me, which was not too small.

If there are still people in these villages, the food reserves should be enough for two thousand people and horses to use as supplies.

“General, a Chu village has appeared in front of us.”

“Okay, let’s go in and have a look!”

Qiyan Gong nodded and started galloping.

Two thousand men and horses galloped at full speed on this plain, and the earth seemed to be shaking.

Based on the experience of the beggars, at this time, the villagers in the village and those with horses had already fled on horseback.

Those without horses must be like flies, scurrying around in confusion.

There will definitely be a chorus of screams and cries.

But

the reality is quiet, as quiet as Qiuning Town before.

Needless to say, the wolf riders can also guess that these villages have become empty villages.

Qiuning Town, Village

At this moment, a bad thought appeared in Qiyan Gong’s mind.

His pupils shrank, and he actually felt a little panicked in his heart.

He has never felt like this in all these years.

It seems that since he bypassed the Chu people’s natural punishment, things have become different from what he imagined and what he originally planned.

They were the pioneers, the first group of people to set foot on the land of Dachu.

Everywhere they went, there was nothing.

There was no movement at all.

As an important town, Qiuning Town did not leave any grain or armor.

Not even a single pot or pan was left behind.

This can already explain a lot of problems.

They knew they were coming long, long ago!

The most important thing is that

since they knew they were coming, why haven’t they rearranged the Heavenly Punishment yet and let them into Da Chu.

They even took the initiative to withdraw the people from various villages, even giving up the important town of Qiuning Town.

You know, the Chu court did not know how much energy, time and manpower it would spend to build this Qiuning town.

Moreover, when the town of Qiuning was built, the imperial court of Da Chu sent a total of ten thousand elites to prevent invasion during the construction.

Such an important town just gave up.

The Wolf Riders burned it to the ground in less than a day!

It’s just an important town.

There were so many villages and so many people in

these villages , but in such a short period of time, not one of them was left behind.

And it was done quietly.

The sentinels who stayed in Dachu didn’t get any news.

How is this possible?

Qiyan Gong’s first reaction was that His Majesty had been deceived.

I was deceived by those Chu people.

According to what Chu people said, his wolf rider is the turtle in the urn!

Perhaps, they had already set up a formation in Qiuning Fucheng, just waiting for him to fall into the trap.

For a moment, he became even more flustered.

Gritting his teeth, he said in a cold voice: “Search! Search well! I don’t believe it, General. A few days ago, Dachu was fine, but in just a few days they have completely evacuated everyone!”

According to their past experience, , does not rule out the possibility of someone hiding.

“Yes, general!”

The centurions took the order and left.

Thousands of people did not rest, but started searching in the village.

But the final result made them very depressed.

There was nothing left in the entire village.

Especially food, only some dry food and pickled vegetables such as Chinese cabbage were found in some cellars.

The dry food put together was barely enough for the war horses.

However, these knights had been running for more than ten hours and were already exhausted.

The original dry food was only prepared for three days.

Now it seems that unless they choose to go back now, three days of food will definitely not be enough.

Just relying on these two thousand people, no matter how powerful they are.

It is also impossible to shake a wall of Qiuning City.

If we bypass Qiuning Fucheng and go straight to the villages in the other three states.

The risk is simply too great.

After all, they are in the light now, and those Chu people are in the dark.

No one knows how much information those Chu people have.

I don’t know what those Chu people want to do.

If you bypass Qiuning Fucheng, you will really become a turtle in the urn!

“General, let the brothers rest and then return to the camp!”

The camp here naturally refers to the base camp.

This time they left the grassland, but they brought with them enough food for half a year, which was enough to last for a while.

It can even last until the city of Qiuning is captured.

It’s just that

Qiyan Gong is unwilling to give in.

On this trip, I carefully circumvented so many villages.

In the end, he rushed all the way to Qiuning Town with the courage to break the boat.

Among them, the pressure he endured was unimaginable by these centurions who did not need to make decisions.

How could he be willing to leave like this?

A dignified wolf rider leads a wolf, a dignified wolf rider, with two horses, dry food, and drinks.

After walking around for a while, I saw nothing and did nothing.

Just go back like this?

So, what is the difference between them and scouts?

They are the vanguard, the vanguard who breaks the formation, not the scouts!

Qiyan Gong thought so, his eyes turned red involuntarily, and his expression gradually became ferocious.

He turned his head, looked at the deputy general beside him, and said coldly: “This general will take two hundred people to Qiuning Fucheng. You will take the remaining people back.

Each person will leave two horses and seven days of dry food.”

It is not a difficult task for two thousand people to gather four hundred horses for two hundred people and seven days of dry food.

But

no matter what, this is the eldest prince. If something unexpected happens, what should we do?

Although they are pioneers, they are not cannon fodder who die in vain.

Although two hundred people are capable, if they are surrounded by a large army, they will die or not!

Therefore, for a moment, the deputy general hesitated.

Seeing this, Qiyan Gong gritted his teeth, lowered his voice, and almost roared: “Did you hear that?”

When the deputy general heard this voice, his whole body couldn’t help but trembled, and he said hurriedly: “Yes, general!”
