The prince is very cruel
Chapter 917
Guan Ning jumped on his horse without saying anything: "Brothers, get on the horse!"
"Leave from different directions. We'll meet in Shu. Remember, no matter what happens, don't look back!"
"Yes!" Fifty people shouted, and then rode their horses in various directions as planned, leaving their horse hoof prints almost all over the mountains and plains.
In this way, the enemy will not know where to chase, and will not even know that the food cart has actually changed hands on the top of the mountain.
Guan Ning did not stop either. He pulled Hai Mei onto the horse, and then waited until everyone had left before leaving.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the deafening sound of horse hooves was heard on the top of the mountain.
"Gee, gee!"
"quick!"
"Chase!"
With constant shouting, thousands of cavalrymen stirred up clouds of dust and rushed forward one after another.
A closer look revealed that this group of Xiliang troops were in a very sorry state, with everyone having big bumps on their faces, and some were even unrecognizable.
"Sir, there are horse hoof prints everywhere, but no wheel prints!" someone shouted.
Mu Zhen's face turned pale when he heard this.
His mouth was swollen like a sausage and was extremely painful. At this moment, his face was filled with anger, darkness, and ugly like the color of pig liver.
"If the military rations cannot be recovered, both you and I will be tried by military law!"
"Separate yourselves and chase them. I don't care what method you use, just catch up with them!" he roared.
"Yes!" Many soldiers were startled and started chasing separately.
"Drive, drive, drive!"
Thousands of people were divided into more than a dozen waves and chased in different directions. They believed that Guan Ning and his group with the grain carts could not run far and they should be able to catch up.
Who would have thought that there was no trace of anyone during the chase, only a few horse hoof prints along the way. Not only were there few people, but there was no trace of the grain cart either.
The soldiers became more and more desperate as they chased, until they completely lost the last horseshoe prints. They were unable to catch up with the grain cart and finally had to turn back and reunite, pinning their hopes on others.
It was still the same mountain, but now the sky was dark and full of stars.
"Shut up!"
"Lord Muzhen, we don't have any here."
"Sir, I have no idea where to pursue you."
"Sir, this is a deceptive tactic on our side. There are no signs of grain carts."
One voice after another rang out.
Under the torch, Mu Zhen's face was extremely ugly, as gloomy as water, and his back teeth seemed to be almost broken.
"How is it possible, how is it possible..."
"I clearly saw the grain cart coming up, how come it suddenly disappeared?"
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He didn't even know who the enemy was, and a large amount of food and supplies disappeared. When he thought about the punishment he would suffer when he returned, he lost control.
"what!"
He roared: "Waste, you bunch of waste!"
"If I'm ever tried by military court, you'll be the first to take the blame!"
"waste!"
"waste!"
"If a swarm of wasps can scare you like this, what use would I have for you!"
boom!
He kicked left and right, venting his anger.
The soldiers who were kicked over were wailing and trembling, with no tears to cry. They were all in a terrible state and were almost bitten to death by hornets. It really can't be blamed on them!
After a long time, Mu Zhen stopped panting. At this time, he had to accept the fact that the food and grass were lost.
Just as he was about to say something, he stumbled and stepped on something.
He was not in the mood to care about these things, but he just took a subconscious look, and his eyes with scars froze, and then he quickly bent down and picked up something.
"Whose is this?"
The soldiers looked up in confusion, and then shook their heads.
"Master Muzhen, there are words on the back!"
Muzhen quickly turned it over, and torches came from all around. He saw two big words "Bashan" on it.
"Bashan?"
"What Bashan?" Mu Zhen narrowed his eyes, revealing a fierce look.
"Sir, Bashan is the sacred mountain of Shu. It holds a special status. The people of ancient Shu live here. The people of Shu obey Bashan, and Bashan is under the jurisdiction of the emperor."
"Could this be their identity token?"
"Lost here?" someone asked.
After hearing this, Mu Zhen was furious, his face turned red, and there were even bloodshot eyes.
"Bashan!"
"It turned out to be the bastard from Bashan who did it!"
"You dare to rob my Xiliang army's food and supplies? You are simply courting death!"
"Someone come!" He roared, like a bolt of lightning, echoing on the top of the mountain.
"Here I am!" The captains bowed with murderous intent.
"Send a message back to the county capital immediately, requesting support. Tell them that our food supplies have been robbed and we are engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy!"
"Everyone else, mount your horses immediately and follow me to attack Shu."
"These bastards from the remote countryside must be taught a lesson once and for all!" Mu Zhen roared with murderous intent. He could not accept that he would suffer a loss in front of a group of lowly and poor people from Shu, and he could not afford the responsibility of losing the military rations. He had to take them back.
"Yes!!" The Xiliang rebels who learned of their target roared in unison, bared their sharp fangs, and quickly mounted their horses.
……
The next day.
In the heart of Shu, Liuzhuang Wharf.
"There's food, there's food!" The refugees burst into thunderous cheers, even the elderly began to dance and gathered around the dock.
Seeing this scene, Guan Ning and Hai Mei held hands and smiled sincerely.
"Hahaha, my lord, you're finally back!"
"We knew that once you made a move, you would definitely be able to capture him!"
"With so much food, if we save it a little, it will last a long time."
"No matter what, it solves the urgent problem!" Everyone gathered around with excited expressions. Most of them were from Bashan, and there was also Nie Nan.
Guan Ning smiled modestly and said, "It's all thanks to the brothers."
"Everyone who participates in the operation will be rewarded with ten taels of silver!"
"Thank you, lord!" The militiamen clasped their fists and were convinced.
"By the way, Brother Nie, please quickly have someone distribute rice porridge to the refugees, and give more to the elderly and children."
"As for the able-bodied men, ask them if they are willing to work for Bashan. As long as they work, we will provide them with food and supplies. After all, we should make the best use of everything."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
"Then my lord, will you return to Bashan first? It looks like Madam Zi Yan and Madam Ning Xiu are about to give birth."
Guan Ning's expression suddenly became serious, and he realized that the day was almost up.
Apart from Qin Yao, Zi Yan and Ning Xiu have not yet given birth, and Lou Xinyue will be even later.
"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll go back to Bashan first." He was worried that the two girls would be scared if he was not there when they died.
"it is good!"
"Farewell, our lord!" Everyone saluted and was convinced by Guan Ning. It seemed that all problems could be solved as long as they were in front of Guan Ning.
This is definitely not just because of Nie Nan's relationship, but more because people in the entire Bashan and Shu areas regard Guan Ning as a savior.
Guan Ning quickly changed into clean clothes, washed off the mud on his body, observed the refugee camp for a while, and then headed back home.
Liuzhuang is not far from Bashan, but the mountain road is difficult to walk on. Even with a plank road, it takes ten hours to get there.
