Bring the whole war back to Nanming

Chapter 159 The Disappeared Relief Food
Sending away the contented Grimger, the army continued to move southward. The closer it got to the Yellow River, the more people fled on the road. Crowds and groups of people spontaneously organized into small regional groups, and even the people who were under the protection of the army dragged along The family leads the mouth to join various groups.

Although he saw that there was an established army on the official road, the common people didn't seem to want to join him. Fang Xiaobai was happy to be free and didn't bother to meddle in these nosy matters.

The rest of the trip was boring and pleasant. There was no threat from chaos or green skins. Fang Xiaobai only laughed and joked with Han Jiayu every day, and ran into the refugees to ask about the general situation of Zhili. In this way, a week of happy time passed by his fingertips.

After entering the boundary of Yucheng, there were more imperial soldiers and dwarf warriors patrolling around. When passing through the checkpoint, Fang Xiaobai and his party were stopped by the dwarf iron warriors inside the checkpoint.

The dwarf who looked like an officer walked out of the tent where he was resting. When he saw Fang Xiaobai riding on the elf horse for the first time, he stood there in a daze.

"Sir, sir! You are Mr. Xiaobai!"

"That's right, it's me, it's true."

Fang Xiaobai touched his nose and thought to himself: Isn't it just that he has been missing for half a month? Why is he so excited?

"Move the roadblock quickly, Miep, ride our fastest horse, cross the river and tell General Boris is back!"

"Got it Eric."

The dwarf called Meep put away his shield handaxe, brought a pony horse (it was too tall to get up and down), and ran away.

"Well, Eric, you know me?"

"Sir, have you forgotten? Half a year ago, you personally sent us north to fight the enemy outside Nanjing City. Haha, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Ahaha, look at my memory, I'm old and useless."

Fang Xiaobai couldn't remember the faces of every dwarf at that time, so he had to hide it with a laugh: "By the way, there are still many wounded in the team that need treatment. Can you take us into the city first?"

"Oops! We forgot about this, Trick! Take the adults to the county town to rest! By the way, buy me a roast chicken and let's have extra dinner tonight!"

Eric did not shy away from putting his hands on his hips in front of Fang Xiaobai, yelling and ordering his men to do this and that.Fang Xiaobai couldn't help but feel ashamed.

I have long known that the dwarves are bold and unrestrained, but I never thought that they would not hold back in front of the superior, openly and privately, and most importantly, the dwarf who was ordered had no complaints and seemed very happy. Is this the charm of the clan?

Walking on the dirt road to the county seat, Fang Xiaobai asked the guide Dwarf Trik, "Are you and Eric from the same clan?"

"Yes my lord, Eric is my grandfather."

What?Grandpa, these two guys look about the same age!Why is there a difference of two generations?By the way, it's not easy for a dwarf to tell his age by looking at his face, but by looking at his beard.

Fang Xiaobai's eyes squinted, secretly looking at Trike's beard, and sure enough, this short man's beard was a bit shorter than Eric's.

ca official novel sincerely don’t deceive me.

Everyone was talking and laughing, and soon they came to Yucheng, which is located on the north side of the Yellow River and northwest of Jinan. Later generations belonged to the satellite city of Jinan and the economic zone around the Bohai Sea.

The county town is not big, but there are quite a lot of people there, not just Yucheng people, but refugees and soldiers. Almost one-third of the Zhili refugees gathered here to wait for the government and army to arrange to go to Qihe County in the south to cross the Yellow River.

As soon as he entered the county town, he saw simple tents set up on both sides of the street. The faces of the refugees were yellow and thin, and their numb eyes looked at Xiaobai above the horse's back in the dark tents. This made him feel uncomfortable, so he lowered his head. Asked, "Trick, has this always been the case in town?"

Trik didn't know what Fang Xiaobai was referring to. He only had the chicken roast task that Eric gave him in his head. You have to go to several places to buy a roast chicken."

Roast chicken!Roast chicken!The dwarf's brain is well-deserved. Seeing that he didn't answer his point, Fang Xiaobai took the trouble to ask again: "I mean, why do the refugees living in the tent look malnourished."

"Oh~ I heard from my grandfather that because of the lack of food in the south, the army was barely supplied, and there was no surplus food to distribute to the poor, which led to the current situation."

Trick answered truthfully that the dwarves of the old world were different from the gray dwarves of the Chaos Wasteland. They would not lie most of the time, and bragging was another matter.

Fang Xiaobai believed most of his words. The troops he conscripted all had their own rations, which were updated daily, and did not need to spend a lot of food and grass. Even if the grain production was reduced due to the war last year, he used countless grains to cross the border. After the crisis, there should be a lot of food in reserve.

A bad thought slowly emerged in his mind: Could it be that someone was embezzling?It's not impossible. During the Chongzhen period, many Shanxi merchants did traitorous things.

"Robert! The command of the army is temporarily entrusted to you. Han Jiayu and I have to go to Jinan City first."

Fang Xiaobai's face was gloomy, and Robert didn't know why, as a pure soldier, he just accepted what his superiors asked him to do.

"Yes! Your Excellency Prime Minister!"

Call Han Jiayu out of the city gate in the opposite direction, come to an open area, turn on the light screen, the system balance shows that there are about [-] Warhammer Coins, and summoning Griffin costs [-] Warhammer Coins. With so many enemies, why didn't the balance increase.

This issue will be discussed later, and we will talk about it in Jinan first.With the sound of an eagle, a huge griffin appeared in front of them.

Fang Xiaobai climbed up the griffin skillfully, turned around and hugged Han Jiayu, put her in front of him, and handed her a cloak: "It will be a bit cold later, take this cloak to keep out the cold for now."

Han Jiayu seemed very excited, touched this and that, took the cloak handed over by Fang Xiaobai, and asked curiously: "Xiao Fang, is this the legendary Griffin? Can it really fly?"

"Haha, don't underestimate it, sit tight! Let's set off!"

After stroking the stamina of the griffin, his legs pinched its belly, and the griffin fluttered its wings, leaving its feet off the ground. After finding the direction, it flew into the distance with a whistling sound.

…………

Half an hour later, the huge city appeared in Fang Xiaobai's eyes. Looking at Han Jiayu who was shivering in his arms, he couldn't help but hug him tighter.

"The following is Jinan. Find Boris when the time comes, and I will ask him to arrange a warm place for you to rest."

Han Jiayu groaned, looking dumbfounded, Fang Xiaobai didn't stop, and fell straight into Jinan city.

Who would have thought that there would be a sudden change, several crossbow arrows passed by the Griffon, and the defenders came from below to warn: "People on the Griffin! Listen up! We are the Jinan City Defense Force! Jinan City belongs to the restricted air zone. Anyone entering the city must make an emergency landing outside the city!"

　Thanks to Vadari for the recommendation vote, and a big thank you to Zichuan Yuntian and the Fighting Bookworm brothers for their great strength.
