Rescue System: Fleeing Host, calm down

Chapter 93 Mission, sneak attack 10

Commander Xue also saw the murderous aura that flashed across Leng Er's body just now, and said kindly: "We are all willing to listen to Miss Cheng's opinion!"

"That's right, Miss Cheng is willing to be suspected of saving people regardless of the danger. It is a righteous thing. How can we question it? Everyone was also excited and lost their bearings. Please forgive Miss Cheng." Niu Da said and gave a bow, which can be regarded as representing everyone.

Apologize to Cheng Xiaoxiao for what happened just now.

At this time, Leng Er's expression softened a little and he withdrew his sword.

Even if there are still people who are dissatisfied, they don't dare to speak freely.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was very satisfied.

Let's get down to business, "The bandits are robbing homes and houses, and usually they rob money and women. Even if they don't survive, they are strong men who do heavy work. How can they keep the old, weak, women and children together?"

As he spoke, he looked at the thoughtful people around him and continued: "Have you ever calculated how much food a prisoner of six or seven thousand people needs to eat in a day? Even if you eat one meal a day, it is still a huge number, not to mention,

There was no time to harvest this year's new grain, and it was already submerged by the floods. How could there be so much grain to feed the captives? Could the bandits be so kind as to use their own grain to feed these useless people?"

As Cheng Xiaoxiao finished speaking, everyone started to settle accounts.

That's right! If there are so many useless prisoners, they should be killed long ago. Isn't it a waste of food to keep them?

Some people with flexible minds also have different opinions, "Maybe they seized a lot of food in the town?"

Niu Da: "Even if there is a large amount of food, they will not feed the useless, and the bandits are not fools." He did not say it out loud. In fact, every family transported at least half of the supplies that day. Only the wealthy businessmen had more food in their hands.

Since they have all moved away, there will be no food in the town. Of course, there is no need to say this openly.

Cheng Xiaoxiao saw that everyone was reflecting and looked at Qian Fusheng: "Uncle Qian, do you know the total population of this town? My people found out that there were originally about 6,000 prisoners, and yesterday they captured another 700 or 800 people, which is close to 800 people."

There are thousands of people. After the flood, we got sick, died, fled, and fell into the trap of bandits. Are there really so many people who were captured by him?"

As soon as Cheng Xiaoxiao said these words, everyone present was choked and speechless.

Before Cheng Xiaoxiao came, they didn't know the exact number of people. They estimated that there were four to five thousand people, but now it was nearly double that. This was very unusual.

Qian Fusheng: "After the flood, there were about three to four thousand people in the town and villages. Later, riots broke out and some people died, so it should be less than three thousand people."

Niu Da: "There was news a few days ago that there were people captured from other places. I didn't pay attention to this detail at the time." Their mission was to rescue the three to four hundred people imprisoned with Boss Zhao. They didn't even care about the prisoners in the other two districts.

I had never cared about it, nor had I thought that the number of prisoners would increase so much.

Xue Dong realized that things were not simple. As a secret guard, he had been exposed to more schemes and more darkness than these businessmen, and was more complex and dark. "It seems that they gathered captives for a purpose and were willing to keep this group of people, which shows that there is something more."

Great utilization value.”

Cheng Xiaoxiao thought so too, but they were just a bunch of helpless people, so what greater use could they have?

At this time, Leng Er's heart was pounding. He suddenly thought that the news that Leng Yi sent back two days ago was top secret. He happened to be at his master's place and only heard a little bit of the news. However, Leng Yi's investigation revealed that he was not there.

Over here!

Daxia's attack route should be Liedong City in the southwest, which is still dozens of kilometers away from here. There are mountains between Daxia and Daxia. That's it.

Was he wrong?

But it can only be justified if we raise this group of common people for Daxia and use them to intimidate our generals. Killing people is a crime, and those bastards in Daxia intend to use the prisoners to make a big fuss.

Otherwise, there is no more reasonable explanation.

No matter what, the news must be conveyed to the Pavilion Master immediately.

Thinking of this, he decided to tell Miss Cheng that such a big thing was not something she, a young girl, could participate in. But if his guess was correct, Miss Cheng would have already been involved.

Carefully get close to Cheng Xiaoxiao's ear and get rid of all the speculations just now.

Cheng Xiaoxiao's eyes widened in disbelief.

Calling Tongzi, "77, can't you predict disasters? How come Daxia has already put his hands under his nose and is about to go to war, and the lives of all people will be in ruins! But you don't know anything."

After a little analysis, Cheng Xiaoxiao found out that 90% of what Leng Er said was probably the truth. This would make sense for the weird behavior of the bandits, because they were simply doing things for others. These traitors were really hateful.

Although she is not an aborigine of the Aiqi Kingdom, she has been here for so long and has long regarded herself as a member of this place. Now that foreign enemies have invaded, how can she not be angry and annoyed.

"Host, 77 can only predict natural disasters, not man-made disasters." The system felt aggrieved.

"What do I need you for?"

"The host is really capable of wronging good people. It's a good system. Natural disasters are an established fact. Man-made disasters are the result of what you humans think about. How can this be predicted? What if he doesn't want to attack in the next second? Who can

Make it clear."

"Okay! Your reasons are strong." Cheng Xiaoxiao had nothing to say.

Human beings are indeed the most fickle, and the most cunning ones. The complexity of human beings cannot be understood by a small system.

Feelings of the host's thoughts.

system"."

It feels like the host is internalizing it, but unfortunately there is no evidence.

"I'm afraid this is a trap. It's not only the shadow of bandits, but may also involve a bigger conspiracy." Cheng Xiaoxiao said quietly. She couldn't directly tell Leng Er's guess. It involved major events between the two countries, and she couldn't speculate at will.

"By the way, last time, host, you asked me to monitor the prisoners. Some of them were from Liang'an Town, Goat Village, Lujia Village, Niujia Village, Tingxie Town, Gankuo County, etc. I also

I don’t know where exactly the location these people are talking about is?”

When Cheng Xiaoxiao heard that the news was very useful, he asked directly, "Does any of you know the specific locations of Goat Village, Lujia Village, Niujia Village, Liang'an Town, Tingxie Town, and Gankuo County?"

Niu Da: "Is there anything wrong with Miss Cheng?"

Everyone looked at it with an open mind, and there was no longer the disdain and contempt they had before.

Commander Xue immediately asked his subordinates to bring over a detailed map of Yanzhou County and marked the places just mentioned by Cheng Xiaoxiao with a pen.

Everyone took a closer look, and it was amazing. Starting from their town, all the way to Liedong City, there was Gankuo County in the middle. Along the road were towns and villages close to the border, which happened to be connected in a line.

Liedong City is the first city on the border. Outside the city is a crossing river and mountains. Behind the mountains is the border of Daxia. Could this be related to Daxia?

A group of shrewd people over fifty years old guessed the key without Cheng Xiaoxiao reminding them.

Everyone, look at me and I look at you. No one dares to express their guesses.

He lowered his head and looked at the drawings in a tacit understanding. Even if the bandits colluded with Daxia, what was the purpose of gathering the prisoners in their Qishan Town?

Qian Fusheng: "Miss Cheng, these are the places you just mentioned."

"Yes, it's just as you thought. People from these places are now imprisoned in our town."
