After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 1209 Getting to the place

Sure enough, within a quarter of an hour, Miao Bo rode up to report: "Master, two refugees from Qianyang County have died. One died of high fever from fear, and the other died from a poisoned wound."

"Wound? How could there be a wound? Wasn't it checked?!" Qin Xiaomi was anxious and immediately said to Miao Bo, "Quickly tell Commander Zhong and the others not to stop, but to march immediately."

"The refugees from Qianyang County have wounds, if they are from knives or arrows, then they have probably been discovered by the enemy army from the Eastern Desert. They were able to escape here not because of their own ability, but probably because the enemy deliberately laid them as bait!"

"The enemy's objective, at best, is to use them as guides; at worst, they want to infiltrate our ranks, in case they contract the disease..."

Qin Xiaomi didn't dare to think about it anymore. Luckily, the Qin family didn't contact the seven refugees in Qianyang County.

Fortunately, Zhong Baihu used grain to buy a group of mountain people to guard them.

"You should also be careful not to get close to unfamiliar people... If needed, use food to ask someone to help you contact strangers, don't go yourself."

"Yes." Miao Bo nodded in agreement and spurred his horse to the end of the column.

"Xiaomi, what's going on up ahead?" Grandma Qin asked.

Qin Xiaomi told her what had happened, and then said, "Grandma, don't worry, Commander Zhong, Commander Tao, and Commander Ling will handle it. We don't need to worry."

These three men, two from the Northwest Army and one from the capital, all possess the skills to handle matters effectively.

The Qin family should just take care of themselves and not get involved in things like 'killing civilians'.

"Okay, okay, Grandma isn't worried," Grandma Qin replied, then added, "I'll go check on everyone."

"No need, I'll go. Grandma, you often have to carry your little cousin, so it's best if you don't get out of the car." Qin Xiaomi stopped her, put on her own overcoat and protective gear, and went to the other vehicles to ask each one, "Second Aunt, Xiaozhu and Xiaomai, are you alright?"

"We're fine, Sister Xiaomi, don't worry about us." Jiang Xiaozhu then asked, "Sister Xiaomi, when are you coming back?"

Qin Xiaomi originally lived in this car, but because the clerk Guan had mortgaged himself, she was worried about her aunt and son, so she stayed in their car for one night.

"I'll be back tomorrow."

If all goes well, we'll be entering the capital city tomorrow, at which point we won't have to stay in the car anymore and can live in a house.

"Xiao Gu, Erlang..."

"Aunt Mei, Granny Liu..."

"Aunt Eryong, Xiao Yunping..."

"Sister Lizi, Xiao Lubao, Xiao Fubao..."

Qin Xiaomi called out all the way, and behind her followed Xiao Baiying and other female doctors, who carried wooden buckets containing medicinal soup.

Blah blah blah!

The medicinal herbs, like rainwater, were splashed onto the vehicles.

Qin Liupo, who was afraid of dying, got out of the car and said to Xiao Baiying and the others, "Sprinkle some on me to get rid of the germs."

Xiao Baiying and the others glanced at her and agreed.

Splash! Give her a ladle of herbal medicine.

Qin Liupo suddenly felt like she was immune to all poisons.

"Sprinkle some on my old man, my two daughters-in-law, my rebellious daughter, and my two sons too." Granny Qin went further, taking advantage of the situation.

"Bai Ying, don't worry about my mother, you all go about your business." Qin Mei stopped Qin Liu Po ​​from going crazy and said, "Mother, splashing too much medicine won't help. You might catch a cold from splashing it on yourself. Have you forgotten what Dr. Xun said? Germs won't easily spread as long as you don't catch a cold."

"What? Oh dear, why didn't you remind me sooner? Where are the dry clothes? Bring them over so I can change. I can't catch a cold and get sick!"

"..." Xiao Baiying nodded to Qin Mei, then led the female doctors away, carrying their medicine buckets.

The moment the herbal medicine was poured, the gong rang out loudly.

Dangdang Dangdang!
Dangdang Dangdang!
"Commander Zhong, all Wei civilians and mountain dwellers fleeing the war are hereby ordered to set off and run forward to the capital city as soon as possible to escape the calamity!"

The messenger rode his horse back and forth along the long procession, shouting orders.

The vehicle sped off, and the villagers behind it sprinted after it, whispering among themselves, "What happened to the refugees from Qianyang County?"

"Judging by their hurried march, the refugees must be in bad shape."

"What's wrong? Could it be that they've contracted the virus? Can we still enter the city?"

"Shut up, what nonsense are you spouting? Do you still want to go into the city? Infected? That's definitely not true."

At most, it's just a suspected case.

Fortunately, Zhong Baihu and his men were shrewd and kept their distance from the refugees, avoiding getting too close to them.

If the infected people were indeed deliberately released by the enemy, then only the mountain people who came into contact with them would be infected.

He sighed again, "The old men from the mountains are truly brave."

Those who went to contact the refugees in Qianyang County were all mountain people over fifty years old.

Like the elderly transport team of Tai Zhou Mansion, they also wanted to be the first line of defense for their descendants, and then exchange food and shelter for them.

Dangdang Dangdang!
Dangdang Dangdang!
"Report! Commander Zhao, under the command of Assistant Commander Si Qu of the Capital City, has come to pick us up!"

The scouts at the front of the column rushed back, bringing good news to everyone.

Upon hearing this, the villagers who had fled the war cheered, some even weeping with joy: "The commander of the capital city has come to pick us up! The capital city didn't abandon us! We can go into the city to escape the war!"

The Qin, Jiang, Xu, and Qiao families were overjoyed, all feeling that they had made the right decision.

If they don't cause trouble in front of the barricades, those bastards in the capital city definitely won't come to pick them up.

Commander Zhong, Commander Ling, Commander Xiao Tao, and Grandpa Qin rode their horses to the front to see Commander Zhao: "Thank you, Commander Zhao, for coming to pick up our fellow villagers."

Commander Ling also said, "Commander Qu has the people of Wei at heart, and I will definitely report this matter to His Majesty."

Commander Zhao: "..."

No wonder Qu Tongzhi secretly gave them some orders; it turns out that Qu Tongzhi had already abandoned the darkness and turned to the light.

That's good, that's good. Gu Chengyong has been too crazy lately. They're afraid to follow him any longer.

"Gentlemen, you have worked hard. Please follow my unit's flag and get to the capital city as soon as possible. If we are late, we may be overtaken by the enemy. I heard that they are cavalry."

Zhao Qianhu then inquired about the refugees in Qianyang County.

Zhong Baihu recounted everything that had happened before dawn, as well as the decision: "The small arrow wound on their buttocks suggests they were driven here, so we sent the mountain people to leave them where they are until we safely enter the city, after which we will allow them to come over."

Those who have served in the military understand how to drive ordinary people to seek out the army and cities. After hearing this, Commander Zhao tacitly agreed with Commander Zhong's solution: "It's better to leave them where they are, so they won't harm them."

He then ordered his soldiers to beat the drums.

Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
"All Wei citizens, look for the Zhao-character military flag, march straight ahead!"

Zhao Qianhu brought eight hundred soldiers, which immediately increased the troop strength. The Wei army could be seen running all the way.

Seeing this, the villagers were no longer so afraid and happily ran straight ahead.

After running for half a day, we finally saw the fortified barricades that stretched across the road like a city wall.

"We're here! We're here! We can finally go into the city to escape the war!" The villagers cheered. After being away from their homes for two or three months, they had finally arrived.

Dangdang Dangdang!
Dangdang Dangdang!
At the front of the chevaux-de-frise, the sound of gongs rang out. Commander Gu and Assistant Magistrate Zeng, representing the two gates of the government army, sent out soldiers to shout: "All Wei citizens, take your household registration certificates, line up, and wait for inspection before entering the camp in front of the chevaux-de-frise!"

"Anyone who dares to make noise, push, or disrupt order will be considered to have violated military law and will be beheaded on the spot as a warning to others, in accordance with regulations!"

"Show my ancestors to the public! Bah! These dogs, they're using some chicken feather token to suppress us everywhere. If the Eastern Desert army hadn't actually come, I wouldn't have put up with their bullying at all!"

Many Wei civilians who had fled the war complained bitterly, and everyone was on the verge of having had enough.

"Bear with it, just bear with it a little longer. We'll be in the city soon. We can't let them hear us and use that as an excuse to prevent us from entering."
