The Crown Prince I’m Raising Has Turned Evil
Chapter 79 Unexpected
Because the main force was repairing the city wall, with so many people working together, the city wall was repaired quickly.
When Mr. Liu came back with supplies, most of the city wall had already been poured. He took a look outside and nodded repeatedly.
As expected of Xie Linlang, it is quick to make a decisive decision.
After he entered the city, he obviously hadn't left for a long time, but the city in front of him changed again.
First of all, the half-repaired black asphalt road, the original dark color and strange smell, the common people in the city could not accept it.
But after repairing it, they realized that they were short-sighted. The bluestone road looks good, but the road surface is easily damaged, not to mention troublesome to repair, and the later maintenance is also a big project.
And this kind of asphalt road is much better. It is fast to repair, easy to level, and can last for many years after one repair. Its performance is much better than that of bluestone road. No wonder Mr. Xie chose it!
After seeing it, Mr. Liu felt that Xie Linlang was a real person. Indeed, there was nothing wrong with this road other than being ugly.
At this time, the buildings on both sides of the road were also being rebuilt, and many holes were dug in front of the buildings for planting trees. In addition, there were workers working everywhere, pushing carts, etc., and the whole city looked quite chaotic.
But this does not prevent Mr. Liu from imagining, he also wants to know what the city will be built by Xie Linlang in the end.
On the other side, Qin Jue was already on his way back, when someone rushed over at full speed and reported loudly.
"Your Highness! Confirmed! The destination of the rebel Dong Kui is indeed Xiangcheng!"
Qin Jue was taken aback for a moment, the thing he had been worried about all this time still happened, just why? Why did the rebels focus on Xiangcheng?
The man continued to report, "It is said that a capable man was sent by Dong Wei, who knew the secret of Xiangcheng, and said that Xiangcheng's geographical location is excellent, easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as Dong Wei captures Xiangcheng and retreats there , you can be the emperor of the land, and you can slowly expand your power, so Dong Wei will go south under the attack of the imperial court and go straight to Xiangcheng!"
When Qin Jue heard this, his hand holding the rein tightened.
He said decisively, "Shan He, send the pigeons to report to Xiangcheng, and inform Shan Yun at the same time, telling him that the recruits don't need to practice any more, and they will be brought directly to Weijiang City to meet us halfway.
Wang Yong, you stay and protect them and continue on their way, Dong Qi, you take your soldiers and follow me first! "
Several people heard the words and quickly stood up and said yes.
After explaining, Qin Jue didn't stay any longer and led the soldiers away.
Soon, some flying pigeons fluttered into the sky and headed south.
After that, Qin Jue seldom stopped and kept on his way. Seeing that the horse couldn't stand it anymore, Dong Qi couldn't help comforting him.
"Your Highness, you don't need to be so worried. Mr. Xie is far-sighted. When he sees the rebels going south, he might have investigated and made preparations. Moreover, Mr. Huang is also there. If the situation is not right, Mr. Huang will dispatch troops to protect him."
Qin Jue is not optimistic. It is difficult to count the number of rebels, because not everyone is willing to go south with Director Dong, so they are not sure about the number of rebels until now.
It would be fine if there were fewer people. With Xie Linlang's ingenuity and Red River Valley's military strength, he didn't have to worry at all, but if there were too many people, the entire Xiangcheng might be lost. So what would he do with Linlang? !
That's why he dispatched all the recruits he recruited to Xiangcheng. Although their individual strength is not strong, the more they have, the safer Xiangcheng will be.
He rushed to Xiangcheng in such a hurry, and Xie Linlang also received the news brought back by Huang Lao.
Because the distance is closer, the news she gets will be more accurate.
According to the news, Dong Jie's army should have around 30,000 people. It was originally 50,000, but it must have been attrition after being chased by the court all the way. In addition, there are still deserters. If 30,000 people are willing to follow him southward, it is already considered Not bad anymore.
And she has 500 officers and soldiers under her command, and she still has a token given by Qin Jue, who can mobilize 3,000 elite soldiers in the Red River Valley. She is not afraid either! After all, it's just a bunch of rabble.
After Xie Linlang thought about it secretly, she relaxed a lot. Qin Jue was kind enough to give her the token a long time ago. With his support, she is worthy!
After Xie Linlang shared her thoughts with Huang Lao and the others, Huang Lao and the others felt much more at ease.
They have strong soldiers and horses, and they have enough food. Even if there is an emergency and the city is besieged, they don't worry about it. The group of people outside may not be able to consume more energy than them.
Soon, the city wall of Xiangcheng was repaired under Xie Linlang's guidance.
During this repair, the city wall was moved out a lot, not only covering the oil field in the city, but also expanding the area of the city.
Looking at the tall city wall in front of her, Xie Linlang was very satisfied. If it wasn't for the lack of time and technical materials, she really planned to pour it with molten iron to ensure that it was indestructible!
But the meal needs to be eaten at one bite, and the city needs to be built step by step. Let's save this perfect idea for later!
After the city gate was repaired, Xie Linlang asked them to dig all the canals. Diverting water into the city was also a very important matter, not only related to people's livelihood, but also related to safety.
In the midst of such intensive construction, on this day, finally, good news came from Mr. Huang's side!
It turned out that the rebels stopped, not because they stopped on their own initiative, but because the flood in the southeast went south, causing the Wangjiang River to surge, directly blocking their way!
It is not an easy task to cross the river during the flood season, Xie Linlang secretly heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that the group of people probably stopped here.
She let people continue to stare at her, so she let go and continued to enter the workshop. Xiangcheng still has potential safety hazards. In the final analysis, there is still not enough money!
As long as you have money, you will have people, you will have a city, and you will have everything. Since those rebels can't get over it, then she should continue to earn money! After all, her time is precious.
In this way, a few days passed.
On this day, Xie Linlang was trying to shape the molten glass and wanted to make a handicraft, but someone ran over in a panic.
"My lord! My lord is not good!"
Xie Linlang was very calm, raised her eyebrows slightly, "What? The rebels have gone south?"
"No, no!"
The man turned pale and shouted loudly, "It's the water bandit! It's the water bandit!"
This surprised Xie Linlang. After all, the water bandits hadn't come to Xiangcheng to rob for many years, and they came suddenly, which was a bit beyond her expectation.
She wasn't worried though, she could still handle it if there weren't many people, so she asked.
"How many water bandits are there? Where did they come from?"
The man's face became even more ugly, and he faltered and said with his eyes wide open, "...uncountable, a lot of ships! It is estimated that there are at least five thousand people!!"
(Ah! I wrote and deleted and deleted again, I’m going crazy! No matter what, let’s start with the whole chapter and I’ll continue typing! For the next chapter... I’ll try to get it before ten o’clock! Claws!)
