I really don't want to be a rebel [infrastructure]

After Wang Antong judged where Cheng Jingwei would stay five times in a row, Luo Shixing stared at him silently.

At this time, Wang Antong was so shocked that he almost shut himself up.

He originally thought that he had learned a lot from Cheng Jingwei after so many years with Cheng Jingwei. Besides, he should also know Cheng Jingwei, but he never expected that he imitated the thinking of his general to speculate on the camping point. At that time, none of them were right!

As long as one can speculate on one, Wang Antong can also explain.

But the place they found didn't even have any traces of life. When they found the place before, although Cheng Jingwei had people wipe out almost all the traces, they could still find some clues after careful searching.

Cheng Jingwei is not covering up traces of existence but covering up their whereabouts.

So if you can't even find any traces of your life, you must be looking for something wrong.

Fortunately, his family envoy still believes in him, and when he guessed wrong before, he comforted him not to panic, not to worry.

But Wang Antong knew that his envoy was the most anxious one.

When Li Chen came in, he happened to see Wang Antong squatting in the corner like a gloomy mushroom, and he gave him a sympathetic look.

It's not that Wang Antong is incompetent. When they were looking for Marquis Yunhe, they encountered Tubo's army several times. Wang Antong commanded Ruoding to either wipe out the opponent or drive them away. Anyway, he captured a lot of them. The military exploits of the envoy should be quite a lot.

It's a pity that their main goal is to find Marquis Yunhe, their envoys may not be rare in military exploits!

Luo Shixing took a deep breath. At this point, he could no longer comfort Wang Antong.

He looked up at Li Chen and asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Chen hurriedly cupped his hands: "The latest supplies have arrived, and the lower officials have already counted them, please let me have a look."

Luo Shixing reluctantly took it over. The most important thing he lacked here was supplies. Lingnan sent him supplies according to the number of the two teams, which meant that he predicted that he would be able to find Cheng Jingwei.

But the problem is that he can't find anyone now!

Luo Shixing glanced at Tiaochen and found that besides Jiaozhou, Guangzhou, and Zhuya Prefecture, the other three states also provided a lot of things.

He was a little surprised and said: "What are Rongzhou, Yongzhou and Guizhou doing? They only have so much stuff there, and what should they do with so much tax this year? They don't want to raise taxes."

He would rather these three states not send supplies than to increase taxes casually. The people there have just lived for two years, and once the tax is increased, they may return to before liberation.

Li Chen said with a smile: "These governors know what you are worried about, and they specifically said that there is no tax increase. This is because of the high harvest in the past two years, and part of it is obtained from donations."

Luo Shixing was stunned for a moment: "Solicit donations? Why are you still soliciting donations?"

Li Chen explained: "It is said that the people in Lingnan heard that Marquis Yunhe was missing, and you also came to Tubo. They were worried that you would not have enough food and clothing, so they initiated a fundraising initiative."

The common people didn't know that Luo Shixing was looking for Cheng Jingwei, they just thought that Cheng Jingwei's whereabouts were unknown, and Luo Shixing had to go to battle to continue what Cheng Jingwei hadn't finished.

Luo Shixing had always thought that his status was much higher than before, and that the people in Lingnan might not remember him, even in Beidai County, he might have almost become a legend.

In fact, the common people remember him well. Apart from Jiaozhou and Guangzhou, there are four remaining states, two of which have never changed their governors. Although the governor of one state has changed, it has been the same since the beginning, let alone Zhuya Prefecture. Having said that, the position of governor has been vacant.

Before Luo Shixing became the envoy of the Lingnan Economic Strategy, their life was always like this. They would not die from starvation if they were not full, and they might not survive natural and man-made disasters.

After Luo Shixing became the envoy of the Lingnan Economic Strategy, everyone's life became easier. The people were just uneducated, but even small animals could tell who was good to them and who was bad to them, let alone humans.

Everyone was worried about him when he went to the battlefield, and all the states were preparing supplies for him. Without blocking the news, the people of course heard some rumors. The first rumors were only that the weather in Tubo was bad, and they were worried about the Yue Kingdom. Bad publicity.

In the end, I didn’t know how to pass it on. In order to keep everyone from starving, he left without bringing much supplies.

Many people were both moved and worried. Everyone didn't want something to happen to Luo Shixing, even if they were a little selfish, they thought that if something happened to this one, the next manager would not be sure what he would be like, and their life might be different. It's better.

So when the states were recruiting again, they found that the young and the strong signed up enthusiastically, and there were also businesses who took the lead in raising donations.

The power of the people is naturally inferior to the state machine, but it can become a vast ocean if it is gathered bit by bit.

Half of Luo Shixing's supplies are now donated by the common people.

For a moment, he suddenly felt a little stressed.

Thinking about it carefully, he seems to be completely different from those officials in the historical records who are dedicated to the people and the world. Everything he does is based on the three views formed by the education he received for more than 20 years in later generations. He didn't necessarily have the idea of ​​​​saving anyone.

If you can do it, do it, if you can't, just do it.

But the people's rewards were so strong that he was a little at a loss.

Luo Shixing Alexander said: "Hurry up and send a letter back to tell everyone to stop collecting donations. We don't lack supplies!"

They really didn't have any shortages, but at the beginning, he distributed some to Heizhi Changzhi because he didn't bring much, and he didn't have any shortages after the follow-up supplies were delivered!

What's more, the Tubo troops they met recently all came to give them warmth, and the food and grass also supplemented their supplies.

Thinking of this, Luo Shixing couldn't help but recall that Cheng Jingwei said the same thing back then, and he also said that more and more supplies would be sold. Facts have proved that this is probably true.

Of course, to be able to do this, you must have absolute strength and don't procrastinate in quick battles. This way, the consumption is less than what you grab, and you will naturally fight more and more.

Li Chen was ordered to leave, and at this time Wang Antong came over step by step to flatter him and said with a smile: "Master, the last general... the last general thinks the general's next step..."

Luo Shixing raised his hand expressionlessly: "You don't need to say it, I also know where the next step should be."

As he spoke, he nodded at Bocheng: "He won't give up here."

The message Cheng Jingwei gave on Feiyuan back then was to meet in some cities, which should have been agreed a long time ago between him and Hei Chi Changzhi or Wang Xiaojie.

It also means that Pibo City has to be swallowed by him.

If this was the case, Luo Shixing felt relieved, at least it meant that even if Cheng Jingwei suffered a loss, it wouldn't be a big deal, otherwise he wouldn't dare to make a plan for Bocheng.

Luo Shixing didn't look for Cheng Jingwei's possible foothold at all, and just waited for him in Pibo City.

Oh, if you're unlucky, Cheng Jingwei may have brought down Pibo City, and they may not have arrived yet.

Thinking of this, Luo Shixing suddenly felt a sense of urgency, and he directly chose the shortest road to Pibo City.

Wang An asked carefully while asking for arrangements, "If... if the general didn't go to Pibo City..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he swallowed it back again. There was no way, Luo Shixing was already stabbing him with his eyes, and he was afraid that he would be beaten to death here if he continued.

Luo Shixing pinched Wang Antong's mouth and said, "You really can't spit out ivory! If you really can't find Ah Wei in Pibo City, I will sacrifice you to heaven!"

Wang Antong sobbed and said that he would definitely not talk too much, which left him with a life, and rushed out to prepare for changing the route tomorrow.

The next day, Luo Shixing gave up looking for traces of Cheng Jingwei's march and went straight to Pibo City.

Perhaps because it is getting closer to the second largest city in Tubo, the population has also begun to increase.

The earthquake in the Luowo and Bowo areas obviously also affected this side. When Luo Shixing and the others passed by, they saw many people lying on the ground without even a tent.

I even encountered some mass graves, no, not even mass graves, because many people's corpses were piled there.

It seems that sky burials are more popular in Tubo, but in Luo Shixing's view, this is the source of plague infection.

These corpses had to be burned on the spot, but Luo Shixing did not directly force the order. The local people might not care who ruled them, as long as they could give them a bite to eat, they could become obedient citizens.

But if you offend their beliefs, just wait, these obedient citizens can immediately transform into super soldiers and fight you forever.

So Luo Shixing ordered people to secretly burn the place where the corpses were placed in the middle of the night. Even if the local Tibetans tried to find it, they couldn't find who did it.

Walking and burning all the way like this, Luo Shixing hardly encountered any particularly strong resistance, making it seem like he came here to burn corpses.

However, after he sent someone to inquire, he found out that a large Zhou army had passed by and wiped out all the local armed forces, which was why Luo Shixing was able to relax so easily.

As soon as Luo Shixing heard it, he knew that the distance between him and Cheng Jingwei was very close. They had been traveling on two different roads before, but now they finally converged on one road.

He was immediately extremely excited. If he was not worried about the plague and needed to find an opportunity to burn the corpses, he would have marched in a hurry.

As for treating these people...Frankly speaking, Luo Shixing suppressed this idea as soon as it came to mind.

These people cannot be cured by the little medicine in his hand, not to mention how many soldiers on Cheng Jingwei's side have been injured, and it is obviously not easy to fight Pibocheng or Luoxicheng next. Keep these medicines for your own people.

Luo Shixing thought that he would catch up with Cheng Jingwei soon, but he didn't expect that the other party was marching faster than him, and only found some traces when he was less than fifty miles away from Pibo City.

At this moment, Cheng Jingwei has already started to set up camp and think about how to take down Pibo City.

His supplies are running out. If Pibo City is not defeated, the army will be hungry in two days.

Where is Kepibo City easy to fight?

Even Cheng Jingwei was a little worried.

And at this moment, Lieutenant Lin ran over panting and said, "General, reinforcements...reinforcements are here."

Cheng Jingwei looked up at him with some surprise: "Reinforcement? Was it General Black Tooth or General Wang?"

Lieutenant Lin had a look of excitement on his face, he shook his head vigorously and said, "It's...not at all, the Duke is here."

Cheng Jingwei:! ! ! ! !
