Chapter 165 Heading to Hubei City
arrive home.
Zhou Lingling didn't tell her parents about her grandparents' family.
Since Qi Zhu dared to agree, he would bring his grandfather and his family to the northern border.
So there is no need to make my parents worry anymore.
Due to a shortage of soldiers, the people were called upon to continue digging canals at designated locations inside and outside Anbei City, and the work proceeded smoothly.
Both the people in Anbei City and the farmers nearby are very active.
Everyone in the Northern Frontier trusts their general unconditionally and wholeheartedly.
In times of war, they were willing to risk their lives to guard the northern border with Xiao Yan.
Not to mention just digging canals, this is for the good of the people in the northern border.
Workers who live nearby can go home every day.
Those who lived far away set up tents nearby.
All food, bedding, tents, etc. are provided by the Zhou family.
Of course, Zhou Lingling also moved a lot of good things from the warehouse of the general's mansion.
Three days after the start of the work, the new grain mixed with coarse-grain rice - potatoes - spread throughout Anbei City and even the entire northern border.
The workers also received a lot of information about the "Zhou family" from the persons in charge of each point, namely Sang Lin and others.
I heard that the Zhou family was not only their general's savior, but also moved north with their entire family without hesitation after learning about the difficulties they were facing in the northern border.
They brought the new food they discovered from the south, which is the yellow, soft and sticky thing they are eating now.
It's called potato.
Now they have planted a lot of potatoes in northern Xinjiang. If they can survive, every household will be able to plant them in the future and they will no longer have to worry about going hungry.
Oh, right.
The wells and canals they are digging now were also suggested by the Zhou family.
Also provide them with food and shelter.
As a result, all the workers began to respect the Zhou family as gods in their hearts...
If it weren't for the gods, who would come all the way here for these unrelated northerners?
If it weren't for God, who would give all the food to a group of unrelated people during a famine?
If it weren't for the gods, who would provide money and food to build rivers, roads, canals and wells for them?
In just half a month, wild vegetables, various mountain products, and even pheasants began to appear in front of the Zhou family's doorstep from time to time.
There is no shortage of vegetables at home, Meixiang only goes out occasionally to buy some seasonings.
One day, she went to buy salt, but the shopkeeper refused to take her money.
She could only throw down the copper coins and leave.
Zhou Lingling was completely unaware of all this.
Because she has come to the northernmost part of the northern border
——Protecting the North City.
On the day she arrived, the south gate of Hubei City was closed. Even though they were heading towards the northern border, they were stopped by the soldiers on the city wall just two hundred meters away from the gate.
"The city is sealed during wartime! All outsiders, please leave immediately!"
Han You took four people and stayed in two valleys to guard the new grain with those people.
Sang Lin brought other people and the Tang brothers to stay in Anbei City to manage the laborers.
This time, Zhou Lingling was only accompanied by Tie Yuan.
Knowing that Zhou Lingling was coming, Qi Zhu was worried, but he couldn't persuade her, so he sent a team of palace soldiers to follow her.
The leader of the palace guards took out a token and rode forward.
"We are the soldiers of the General's Mansion, and we have an urgent matter to see the General."
The captain of the city guard looked at the token and his frown relaxed slightly, but he did not order the gate to be opened immediately.
"Brother, wait a moment!"
After saying that, the captain's figure disappeared on the city wall.
The leading soldier turned his horse and said to Zhou Lingling:
"Miss Zhou, the city guards have gone to ask for instructions. Please wait a moment."
Zhou Lingling nodded: "Okay. No rush."
Not in a hurry.
But none of the palace soldiers believed it.
It would take three days to get from Anbei City to Hubei City even if they rode at full speed.
But they set out from Anbei City the morning before yesterday and arrived this afternoon.
Miss Zhou is a little girl, but she can keep silent while walking...
Thinking of the recent heroic deeds of the Zhou family inside and outside the city, the palace soldiers couldn't help but feel a little more respect for them in their hearts.
Soon.
There was a noise inside the city gate.
The heavy city gate slowly opened.
"Miss Zhou!"
It's the sound of Fei Yu.
He looked at the familiar figure outside the city gate excitedly.
The city guard sent a message saying that the general's mansion had escorted a girl to protect the North City. Feiyu immediately guessed that it was Zhou Lingling.
But it still feels a little impossible.
The military advisor's letter a few days ago also said that Miss Zhou went to Wushuang City to collect food and had just returned to Anbei City.
With food and supplies continuously transported to the border, they no longer have to worry.
Even the master, who had been confronting the barbarians for many days and had been frowning, rarely smiled.
Miss Zhou is really their lucky star!
It was a good thing that the master got injured last year, otherwise how could he have met Miss Zhou and her family...
Putting aside the various thoughts in Feiyu's mind, he saw Zhou Lingling appear in Hubei City.
Feiyu was happy at first, but then he began to worry.
"Miss Zhou, why are you here?"
"The border is dangerous, and war could break out at any time. The barbarians are incredibly cunning this time, constantly finding ways to circumvent our defenses..."
The wind and sand are quite strong.
Zhou Lingling had a towel covering her face.
Before Feiyu had a chance to answer, he started talking non-stop.
Fortunately, he had not forgotten to bring her into the city instead of leaving her outside the city gate.
Zhou Lingling endured it again and again, and finally found a gap and said:
"I need to talk to Xiao Yan about something."
As for what happened.
She couldn't say that in her previous life, Xiao Yan and her second brother would die in this battle, right?
Oh, I need to find the master for something...
Feiyu nodded, and he said that Miss Zhou would not come to Hubei City for no reason.
"It's a pity that the master went to Liangshui River. He just left this morning and will probably be back tomorrow."
"Liangshui River?" Zhou Lingling frowned.
Feiyu: "Yes, it's the river a hundred miles away. Once the barbarians cross that river, it will be regarded as an invasion, and the Northern Army will expel them."
"Half a month ago, several major tribes in the north suddenly established royal courts. The Khan's second son personally led the troops south and stationed them on the other side of the Liangshui River."
"From time to time, they would send a group of troops across the river to harass us. As soon as we left the city, they would disappear without a trace. Over time, the soldiers were extremely exhausted. It was only after the master personally intervened that those shameless people were intimidated."
"You arrived at the perfect time. If it had been a few days earlier, we would have been at war with the barbarians for the first time. Those bastards have repeatedly harassed us and then fled, causing our soldiers to let down their guard. A few nights ago, they even sent nearly a thousand men to launch a surprise attack, but they were chased back to the other side of the river by our master..."
Zhou Lingling didn't even need to ask in detail, Feiyu explained in detail what had happened in Hubei City over the past half month.
Therefore, the Northern Army has officially declared war on the barbarians.
Zhou Lingling pursed her lips. The timing was right.
Walking all the way from the city gate to the City Lord's Mansion, she noticed that there were no more civilians in the city.
There were originally a small number of people in Hubei City.
Most of them were relatives of the Northern Army and were interdependent with the Northern Army.
There were only two clinics on the roadside with a few people in them. The patients, or more accurately, the wounded, were all wearing Northern Army uniforms.
They should be soldiers who were injured in the previous battle between the two armies.
