The Emperor is Above

Chapter 71 Left Division Camp
Zuo Shigong and four captains have gone to the upper city to meet the king.

More than 2,000 soldiers from various armies also obediently returned to their homes and looked after their mothers.

Zuo Gongyu, with a bruised face and nose, was escorted by Luqiu Mufeng himself. When Qing Yi used a spring farming suit to get rid of the guilt, the responsibility today could only be borne by Zuo Gongyu.

"The country boy is harming me! The country boy is harming me!"

Zuo Gongyu felt wronged and stared viciously at Qing Yi who was surrounded by the soldiers of the Zuo Division. He kept shouting and yelling, but was kicked to the ground by Luqiu Mufeng.

"There is nothing wrong in the world, only mediocre people make trouble for themselves. No one is hurting you, you are suffering from your own actions." Qing Yi responded loudly while standing on his car.

"I think you'd better change your name. If your name is so stupid, then of course you will do stupid things. In the end, I'll say one last thing to you: Goodbye!"

Lvqiu Mufeng was personally escorting his confidant, so of course he was not in a good mood, and he couldn't help but sneer, "Shang Shuyi was lucky enough to escape today, I just hope that you will not violate the law again when you go to the capital in the future."

"Of course I also hope that Captain Luqiu can really enforce the law impartially!" Qing Yi bowed and said politely, "Don't let this villain sway your emotions."

"Let's go, what's there to say to the women in the city guards!" Ran You glanced at Luqiu Mufeng impatiently and shouted at the soldiers of the Left Division to return to the camp.

There were as many as seven or eight hundred soldiers of the Left Division who had just participated in the fight, most of them were still fully clothed and armored, and they were surrounded by more than a dozen convoys, as if they were returning from a battle.

In this enthusiastic atmosphere, some soldiers of the Left Division actually began to sing a triumphant song: "I put out my chariot and pasture over there. From the king's place, he called me to come..."

"I put out my chariot and went to the suburbs. I set up this flag and raised that banner..."

Hundreds of soldiers from the Left Division sang victory songs and crowded around the chariot. Qing Yi, Ran You and Zi Che Zhongxing were sitting in the chariot, almost thinking they were victorious generals returning to the camp.

After entering the central city gate, there is a long ramp carved out from the inside of the cliff, which is more than five meters wide. There is a brazier for lighting every ten meters or so.

With the help of the jumping flames, one can vaguely see that many caves have been dug out on the stone walls on both sides. They are used to store food, combat weapons, and siege equipment. There are even a few rooms specifically used for repairing weapons.

Ran You continued to explain, "The road to the east gate of the central city is dark and a bit stuffy to walk on, but the advantage is that it provides better protection in case of a war.

The North Gate of the Central City is in a canyon, with steep cliffs and extremely dangerous scenery. There are many beautiful scenery to see, but it is not very convenient to drive. I can walk there when I have free time."

It took two quarters of an hour to pass through the long dark passage and reach the terraced ground in the middle city. However, at the end of the passage there was a three-meter-high city gate, which made Qing Yi sigh at the tight defense of the capital.

The City Guards and the Third Division were both stationed in the central city. The City Guards camp was on the south side, and the Third Division camp was on the north side. From east to west were the camps of the Left Division, the Right Division, and the Central Division.

Qing Yi noticed that there was a tall corner tower standing between the left division camp and the northeast corner of the central city. Many black hawks with a wingspan of two or three meters were circling in the air, making shrill cries from time to time.

Ran You noticed Qing Yi's gaze and introduced with a big grin: "Look, the large area in front is our left division camp, which is close to the northeast corner of the middle city and has a good view.

It's a pity that the northeastern corner was allocated to the Flying Eagle Camp. They built such a huge corner tower. Not only did they not allow people to go up there, but they also raised a lot of falcons and other birds here, making the place stink. It's really disappointing."

Before Ran You finished speaking, a mountain breeze blew towards them, bringing with it a foul odor of hawk and falcon feces. The soldiers of the Left Division covered their mouths and noses skillfully.

Qing Yi, Gongsun Wu, Tun Shigu and others who had just arrived were caught off guard and accidentally got caught in the smoke. They felt dizzy and almost vomited.

Qing Yi forced himself to hold back the disgusting stench and smiled bitterly, “When I first arrived outside the capital yesterday, I saw the heroic figures of the Flying Eagle Guards circling in the sky, and I felt extremely envious.

I also wanted to have such a powerful private army when I had the conditions in the future, but I didn't expect that the Flying Eagle Camp would look like this when I got closer. Maybe this is the difference between ideal and reality. " "Hahaha——"

When Ran You heard Qing Yi's ideal, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother, do you think it's easy to raise a group of ferocious birds?

Even with my income as a doctor, I can't afford to keep one. Most black hawks are only seventh- or eighth-grade ferocious birds, and are of little use except for patrolling and standing guard.

However, they have to eat dozens of kilograms of animal meat every day, and 30% of it must be meat of exotic animals, otherwise they will not have the strength to carry people and fly.

Besides, after raising these falcons, not only did they poop everywhere in the city, making people feel sick and unable to eat, but more importantly, it was too expensive. Even the king only gave 200 eagle guards. "

Zi Che Zhong Xing laughed and said, "Captain Ran You certainly doesn't envy the Flying Eagle Guards. He has a huge-hoofed wild horse with the strength of a seventh-grade exotic beast. Last time, when the horse was about to be upgraded to the seventh grade, he was reluctant to ride it out.

I think this kind of horse-like beast is the most cost-effective. The lowest Black Armor Cavalry is an eighth-grade red-calf colt. I must catch one if I have the chance."

After hearing the conversation between Ran You and Zi Che Zhong Xing, Qing Yi felt that his horizons had been broadened a lot, but he was startled by the warm cheers coming from the left division's camp.

As the soldiers crowded into the Left Division camp, at least a thousand soldiers of the Left Division lined up on both sides of the entrance to welcome them, as if they were welcoming their triumphant comrades.

The seven or eight hundred soldiers of the Left Division who took part in the fight were also waving their hands enthusiastically, looking smug, and it was not at all obvious that they had just been reprimanded.

"Brother Ran You, didn't Master Zuo say that the soldiers who fought should be punished and trained strictly for a month? Why are they now acting like they have won a battle?" Qing Yi really couldn't understand these strange behaviors.

"Hey, brother, you don't understand!"

Ran You chuckled and said, "Our Third Division has a tradition of fighting with the City Guards for hundreds of years. As for why our ancestors fought hundreds of years ago, we don't know.

It’s just that every time we come back from a fight, we have to celebrate. So if the brothers don’t go out to fight, they’ll be bored except for training. So what else can they do besides fighting?”

Qing Yi didn't know how to complain about this inexplicable tradition and the speechless reason for fighting.

Under the guidance of Ran You, the enthusiastic soldiers of the Left Division brought all kinds of fruits and dried goods. In less than a quarter of an hour, a pile of various snacks was piled up in front of everyone.

"Wow, who would have believed that I could receive such a high treatment after coming to the Zuoshi camp!"

Tu Shigu rubbed his face, which was gradually getting less swollen, and looked at the soldiers of the Left Division who kept coming and going, as well as the snacks piled up in front of him, his little eyes were full of emotion.
"Brother, I've been to the capital dozens of times, but none of them are as thrilling as this one. I just hope this trip is not in vain."

"Brother Shi Gu, don't worry. How can you make such a wasted trip?" Qing Yi had an idea in his mind at this time. He smiled and comforted him.
"Just by looking at the expressions of the four captains and Master Zuo's arrangements for us, I know that nothing will go wrong. Just take good care of your injuries for the next few days."

Chai Yong kept kneading the wounds on his body, and said with surprise, "You know what, the elixir used by Master Zuo is really effective. I don't feel any pain in several places now."

Not only Chai Yong, but also Daniu, Xizi, Huaimu, Mengzi, and the militiamen in Huaiqiuli felt that their previous injuries had recovered a lot.

Even Gongsun Wu, who suffered the most serious injuries, had shown obvious improvement at this time, at least he no longer coughed up blood.

Looking at the sleeping Gongsun Wu, Qing Yi slapped his head and said regretfully, "It's bad. We are trapped in the Zuoshi camp, and Gongsun Wu's mother doesn't even know about it."
