He Benzhao retracted his gaze and said, "That's feasible. We should hurry up and pack up. We will set off for the capital in half an hour!"

Just as Wu Helong was about to respond, he saw the black-armored soldiers who had gone to chase the elite troops ahead came back!

Looking at their relaxed expressions, it was clear that all the elite soldiers that Gong Yahui privately raised had been killed!

However, some of the Black Armor Soldiers were killed, and many others were injured.

Fortunately, they were only minor injuries, so we couldn’t travel so quickly because the wounds would take three or four days to heal.

But compared to the dead black armor soldiers, this is nothing at all!

Thirty black-armored soldiers died!

This number is still quite heavy for the Black Armor Soldiers!

Apart from the fact that it was difficult to train a black armor soldier, an important reason was that everyone was a brother who had been through life and death together, and thirty brothers died at once.

Anyone who says he is not sad is definitely a heartless person!

But the Black Armor Soldiers have a mission to fulfill, even if they are sad, they will not easily show it on their faces!

All the black armor soldiers held back their tears and buried the sadness in their hearts. They quickly found a place on the hills of Chongzhou City and buried the dead black armor soldiers.

Right now, we can only wait until things in Beijing are completely resolved before we can take them home!

The homes of the Xuanjia soldiers are all in Shangjing. Although some of them are orphans, since they joined the Xuanjia soldiers, the Xuanjia soldiers' mansions have become their homes.

After burying them, no one dared to say when they would come to take them home?

Because the matter of going to the capital will definitely not be resolved in a day or two. Who knows, it may not be resolved at all, and Prince Duan will directly take the throne!

Prince Duan will definitely not let go easily of those who have betrayed him!

Therefore, when they go to the capital this time, they must be extremely alert and completely destroy them in one fell swoop, not giving them any chance to turn things around!

After Li Pinggui died, He Benzhao naturally became the commander of the Black Armor Soldiers. No one had any objection to this. Even Wu Helong, who had always been respected by the Black Armor Soldiers, stood back in the line and shouted, "Master He!"

He Benzhao doesn’t know what Wu Helong is thinking?

But he just had to listen to the voice of "Mr. He" because there were more urgent things to do now and it was not the time to discuss these things.

He Ben looked after the black armor soldiers who were ready to go, and quickly said, "Let's go. First, go to the city gate to say hello to the disaster victims, and then set off in the direction of Shangjing!"

"Yes, Lord He!" The black-armored soldiers shouted in unison.

After Gong Yahui's death, Chongzhou City was no longer under the control of local officials. The disaster victims at the gate were ordered to settle in Chongzhou City. They had to be arranged to settle down first, and then wait for officials appointed by the court to come and take office!

But judging from the current situation, the imperial court probably won’t have the energy to take care of things here in the next two or three years!

But the imperial court doesn’t care. The victims still need a place to live, so let them be self-reliant first!

In fact, this is also beneficial. It’s just that in the next two or three years, they don’t have to pay taxes. In other words, as long as they work hard, no matter what they plant or what they harvest, it all goes into their own pockets!

They soon arrived at the city gate!

But after a while, they looked at each other in bewilderment!

Because there was not a single victim at the city gate!

Wu Helong quickly led the black armor soldiers to patrol the area, but found no trace of them. He Benzhao was immediately shocked:

"Could it be that Gong Yahui has another trick up his sleeve? He has another group of people who have already sent these disaster victims to Beijing?"

Wu Helong was also afraid that this was the case, but after thinking about it, he quickly said, "It can't be this. If there were someone else, he wouldn't have gone back to discuss it with Li Pinggui just now."

"Perhaps he did this to divert Li Pinggui's attention, and secretly sent someone to send the victims away?"

"That's possible, but what are the benefits of doing this?"

He Benzhao walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, guessing:

"Maybe he wants to steal the credit in front of the prince?"

Wu Helong had come into contact with Prince Duan, and I believe Gong Yahui had also come into contact with him. Having had such contact, he naturally knew the prince's character very well. Before the throne fell into his hands, Prince Duan would never look up to anyone.

Not to mention, whether he can successfully seize the throne is still an unknown!

Wu Helong shook his head to deny He Benzhao's guess: "If we are to reward people based on merit, Gong Yahui may not be ranked first even in the next life."

He Benzhao spread his hands, "There are at least 10,000 disaster victims here, they can't just disappear out of thin air, right?"

Wu Helong looked at a broken branch deep in the woods. It looked like someone had broken it. He said:

"They may have all gone into the mountains."

He walked quickly towards the branch and soon found that his guess was correct!

"Sir, they are all heading in this direction. Shall we go in and take a look?"

He Benzhao nodded: "Let's go in and take a look."

An hour later.

They appeared in a valley deep in the forest, and looking around, they saw densely packed heads everywhere!

The victims were discussing how to spend the next few days in the mountains. As they were talking, they saw a group of soldiers suddenly appear behind them!

Everyone thought that this group of soldiers were here to take revenge on them, so they immediately picked up their weapons and looked at He Benzhao and others with wary eyes.

He Benzhao quickly explained, "Don't be nervous, everyone. We are just here to tell you that Prince Duan in Shangjing has rebelled. Gong Yahui and Prince Duan have colluded to plot against you and send you to the battlefield as cannon fodder. Now, Gong Yahui is dead. You can go back to Chongzhou City and live there without worrying about being harmed by Gong Yahui."

He Benzhao felt that the victims had the right to know the truth about these things, so he simply told the whole truth!

When the victims heard what He Benzhao said, they were so frightened that they couldn't recover for a long time!

They knew that Gong Yahui would deal with them, but they didn't expect that his methods would be so vicious. It was really terrible to send them to their deaths!

What’s even more terrifying is that these things were told to them by officers and soldiers. Aren’t these officials supposed to protect each other?

Could it be that their interests are not aligned and they have fallen out?

The victims were completely puzzled, but in order to prevent a fraud, they did not really believe what He Benzhao said!

The victims' thoughts were all written on their faces, how could He Benzhao not see it?

He and Wu Helong looked at each other and said quickly:

"There is no official to govern the city now, so you can find a place to settle down on your own. If you have other needs, we can discuss it after the new officials arrive."

After saying that, He Benzhao and Wu Helong led the black armor soldiers and left quickly.

They must rush to the battlefield in Shangjing as soon as possible to rescue all the innocent victims involved!
