A Timely Wife

In the depths of the jungle, a team of more than 200 people is advancing rapidly. The dozen or so people in the lead look cautious. Someone in the middle of the team is carrying more than 20 simple stretchers. Each stretcher has a wounded person lying on it, and there are many others. They supported each other and shuttled through the woods.

Chengdong touched Li Ruosong's forehead from time to time, feeling that the temperature was slowly dropping, and his heart was finally relieved. Fortunately, he brought enough penicillin, otherwise Li Ruosong would not know how tall the grass was on his grave right now. up.

Half a month ago, Chengdong found Li Ruosong in a place called the Devil's Valley by the locals. Zhang Jiajun has been operating in the south for more than 100 years, and there are several hidden piles in every place. This time Chengdong brought a few Zhang Jiajun soldiers Follow along, and every time I go to a country, I first deal with more than a dozen local rangers, put on clothes, go to meet with hidden piles, and inquire about Li Ruosong's news. They never enter the capital, even slightly larger cities. The interrogation of such places is often very strict, and Cheng Dong is not sure that he will not reveal his whereabouts.

Several of the younger soldiers who came here before died because their identities were exposed and were besieged by dozens of people. Each of the more than 300 people brought by Chengdong is a presence that cannot be lost, so Chengdong must not Let his own people take risks, and Chengdong will never use people to solve problems that can be solved with money.

I have to say that silver taels are indeed a good thing. After connecting with the hidden pile, Cheng Dong will give the other party enough silver taels to go from the hidden pile to the capital to inquire about news. It was much better. Of course, Chengdong also cast a wide net and divided people into four groups, centering on the place where Li Ruosong disappeared, and scattered towards the southeast, northwest and four directions, each looking for news about Li Ruosong.

In less than a month, news came from the west, saying that Li Ruosong and others might have been forced into the Devil's Valley. They didn't know if they were alive, because no one has been forced to enter the valley since four months ago. It has come out inside, and the reliability of the news is very high, because there are about 500 troops stationed at the entrance of Devil's Valley, and it is estimated that they are waiting to arrest Li Ruosong.

After Chengdong received the news, he immediately ordered people to summon soldiers from other directions, and everyone gathered at a place called Shenxian Peak near Devil Valley. When everyone was there, Chengdong was not in a hurry to lead people Rushing inside, even though he was burning with anxiety, Chengdong still suppressed the anxiety in his heart and asked people to make preparations first and buy things that might be needed to enter the Devil's Valley.

After the more than 300 of them entered the south, they basically didn't use guns much. They went deep into the enemy's country. Of course, Chengdong would not use firepower so generously without supplies. He would never use firearms to solve problems that could be solved with cold weapons. This is a combat order issued by Chengdong to more than 300 people. This order was carried out very thoroughly. When more than 300 people first entered the south, each of them had a military dagger. Looking at their equipment, some people believe that they are Orions.

When more than 300 people came out, each had a pistol, a rifle, ten grenades, two hundred rounds of ammunition, one machine gun for every ten people, and one mortar for every 20 people. There is no problem at all with 500 people, but Chengdong has more to think about after entering the Devil's Valley. He originally wanted to invite a guide, but the hidden pile told him that he would definitely not be able to invite anyone, even if he was given gold, it would be useless .

Devil's Valley is an absolute forbidden place in the hearts of the people in the sixteen countries in the south. For hundreds of years, no matter whether it is human or livestock, no one who enters can come out alive. There is a daunting miasma, and the trees that block the sky make it impossible to see the sun in Devil Valley all year round. No one can survive in it. For these soldiers who besieged and suppressed Li Ruosong, they just need to guard at the entrance of the valley. They don't have to do anything.

Chengdong ordered people to buy a lot of useless things that other people thought were useless, such as ropes, such as tarpaulins. Although they didn't know what these things could do, the soldiers didn't say anything, and carried out Chengdong meticulously. In addition to flint, paper, cotton, machetes, clothes, shoes and socks, medicinal materials, basically all the silver brought out was used up.

Chengdong and several captains carefully studied the map of Devil's Valley. No one knows what is going on in Devil's Valley, but the size of Devil's Valley is still recorded on the map. Chengdong and the others are located at Qi Heguo, in the southeast direction of Pingnan Mansion, Chengdong is going to enter Devil Valley and search for traces of Li Ruosong and others along the way. The nearest Qi River in the mansion found an exit. The place after coming out of the Qi River is the territory of An Yue State. Chengdong asked people to inform An Yue State that the hidden stakes were there to meet them. After they went out, let the hidden stakes use the fastest Arranging for them to return to Pingnan Mansion at the fastest speed, the secret pile of Qihe Kingdom firmly remembered every word Cheng Dong said. He knew that he could not make a single word wrong in these words, otherwise what would happen to Nanchu in the future? I dare not even think about it.

After all the preparations were done, Cheng Dong asked An Zhuang to send back the news, saying that Li Ruosong had been found, and they would rush back to Nanchu as soon as possible, so that Xiong Ruoshan and the others could rest assured that An Zhuang would send the news back as Cheng Dong said. When it was sent back to Nanchu, none of them expected that this news saved the lives of Xiong Ruoshan and the Li family.

When this news came back to Nanchu, it had been half a year since Li Ruosong disappeared. The news of Li Ruosong's death spread all over the sky, and Nanchu was in chaos. If not for Li Ruosong and Chengdong, they would return to Nanchu soon. When the news came back, I am afraid that Nan Chu no longer existed.

In the past six months, the battle with Dahe's army in the west of Southern Chu was very fierce. Burned a batch of fushou cream, knocked down a lot of Southern Chu soldiers who were in charge of defending the city at one time, and then stormed the city wall of Zhenxi Mansion with artillery obtained from nowhere. It was shot down that day.

However, even though the soldiers of Zhenxi Mansion guarded the city wall, the subsequent battle was extremely fierce. The equipment of the subordinate soldiers was better than that of Dahe's soldiers, but the number of Dahe's soldiers was three times that of the subordinate soldiers. No matter how good the subordinate soldiers were, the number of casualties It is on the rise. In three months, the casualties of the subordinate soldiers reached more than 1000 people. Dahe's 12 army suffered heavy casualties as well, with more than 5 casualties, but Dahe still had more than [-] people. However, there were only about [-] Chu soldiers left. At one point, Zhenxi Mansion was besieged into an isolated city. Finally, the soldiers of Zhenxi Mansion were saved from the fate of cannibalism.

Even so, the situation in Zhenxi Prefecture is still not optimistic. The total number of people transferred from the south is only 2, and 2 people stay in the south to garrison. Being attacked from several directions at the same time, Xiong Ruoshan didn't have the slightest intention to give up. Facing an enemy several times larger than his own, Xiong Ruoshan still divided his troops into several groups to meet the enemy head-on. Although this strategy was problematic, it was equally astonishing. The backbone of the Southern Chu people.

When Li Hu returned to Nanjiang Mansion, the atmosphere in the city was already a little tense. The Dahe army in the north had already assembled and was about to march south. The city of Nanjiang Mansion was in chaos. Xiong Ruoshan still has [-] troops and [-] members of the picket team. I am afraid that these courtiers have already taken Xiong Ruoshan to escape.

In the early stage, the news of Li Ruosong's disappearance could be concealed, but after the news of Li Ruosong's death and Cheng Dong's going south spread, the undercurrent in Nanjiang Mansion became more and more turbulent, especially after Xiong Ruoshan ordered Li Hu to send the last [-] troops to the south. After splitting into two routes to support the west and the north, the situation in Nanjiang Mansion suddenly became tense like a bowstring being stretched, and it would break apart at some point.

The picket team took over the security and stability work in Nanjiang Mansion and surrounding cities, but the manpower was very tight. Some people with ulterior motives in Nanjiang Mansion began to move. As time passed, people's hearts became more and more unstable. The news found in Li Ruosong was sent back. Before, the Nanjiang Mansion was in chaos, and the picket team was sent by Xiong Ruoshan to protect several cities there. They received news that several important towns were besieged. If the siege is not resolved as soon as possible, the loss of the important towns will definitely be a blow to Nanchu. No one wants to see that those important towns are where the military factories of Nanchu are located, and there is absolutely no room for loss. Although Xiong Ruoshan understands that this is a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, he still firmly sends the picket team there.

Li Hu accompanied Xiong Ruoshan and the others with the remaining 100 people. He was ready to die in battle. The government building has been besieged for five days. People outside can't get in, and people inside can't get out either. Fortunately, there is enough food and water in the political building, otherwise they would not be able to last for so long.

Xiong Ruoshan and others are also ready to die generously, especially the four elders of the Li family. According to them, they have already lived enough, and there is nothing to regret even if they die immediately in this life. They were surrounded by the rebels in the political building, but none of them panicked. On the contrary, they smiled every day, talking about Xiong Ruoshan and the others when they were young, joking about the soldiers resting next to them, teasing and teasing that they haven't married yet Li Hu, who gave birth to a child, would occasionally mention the affairs of the Li family and Emperor Chu Cheng. If it wasn't for the wrong place, Li Hu felt that these people didn't seem like they were going to die, but instead they looked like they were going out for a picnic.
