After receiving the letter from Chu Qing, the false emperor not at all immediately made a decision, but told Fuling this matter and asked Fuling’s opinion.

Fu Ling read Chu Qing ’s letter and knew that the situation was serious. He immediately asked the fake emperor to send Chu Qing a military pay and find someone to escort him all the way.

Due to the urgency of the situation, the team escorting the military pay was ready to go immediately after they were ready. They did not dare to stop along the way.

The escort team soon arrived in the mountain forest, where there were often thieves, so those who escorted the military pay were very careful. But didn’t expect, they were cautiously all the way, but they still encountered a bandit.

“Bold! Do you dare to grab military pay?”

The thieves laughed at the escort team with a knife, loudly said: “We are grabbing the official silver.”

The person headed by the escort team frowned, loudly shouted: “What official silver? This is military pay! Does military pay know? This is used to buy grain and grass for the enemies in front of the enemy.”

“Whether military pay does not pay, in our eyes, this is the official silver.” The bandit laughed and said with a smile, and seemed not to take robbery of military pay seriously.

“The soldiers are guarding the enemy, guard home, defend the country. You daring pirates are still daring to snatch the pay here, are you not afraid of Your Majesty understood beheading you?” Said the escort team headed by the others, and there were many others If they have no chance of winning, they can only persuade and threaten them.

“We are both thieves and pirates. We haven’t taken our lives seriously.” The thieves said that they were not afraid of death. Then they waved their hands and shouted, “Brothers, kill me, take the official silver all. come.”

As soon as the thief’s voice fell, the thieves rushed to the escort team, and the two sides engaged in a fight, and they immediately fought.

There are many thieves, and the escorts are hard to work, so they soon die and are injured. The thieves do things vicious and merciless, and have no compassion, so even if they are injured, they will eventually kill all the people in the escort team.

The thieves took the military pay back to their old den with joy, leaving behind a corpse.

“General Chu, I just learned that the military pay distributed by the emperor was robbed on the road, and the people who escorted the military pay were also killed.” One-knee kneels landed on the scout, cup one fist in the other hand.

“what?!”

Chu Qing’s complexion changed instantly. They were at a critical juncture, and now the military pay was robbed again, which can be described as worse.

“General Chu, what shall we do now?” The person next to him asked, “Or, General Chu, will you ask Your Majesty for a batch of military pay?”

Chu Qing shook his head and said, “It’s too late. It will take 6 to 7 days to send a letter from here to the city and then to the military pay. Also, we cannot guarantee that the military pay will not be robbed again.”

“So what should I do? The remaining grain and grass is running out, and it can barely last for 3 days.”

Chu Qing frowned and said, “Even if the remaining grain can last for 3 days, the enemy will not give us 3 days.”

“General Chu, what does this mean?”

Chu Qing looked at the march road map and said: “The escaped captive must have told the enemy that our grain was burned, and the reason why the enemy has been delayed for a few days is to want to wait for us to dry up, as easy as blowing off dust wiped us out. I guess they will act soon. “

“Then what do we do next according to the general’s opinion?”

Chu Qing frowned. He had no good solution right now. He could only say: “Hide the robbery of the military first, and don’t let the soldiers in the camp know that to stabilize the military, I will try to solve the problem of food and grass as soon as possible. Also Yes, let the spies pay close attention to enemy movements. “

“Yes, general.”
