Inside Qingzhou City, the vitality had gradually recovered, everything was as it was before.

The citizens of Qingzhou were no longer affected by the plague, and the problem of the wasteland had been greatly improved.

Without the Scorpion Queen and the leader of the Hundred Poison Sect, the chaotic army had long been utterly defeated. They turned into small groups and spread out in all directions, making it difficult for them to pose a real threat to a large city like the Azure Province.

The medical team of the Beijing Alliance had yet to leave Qingzhou.

Gu Tian and the medical school's sisters thought that they must stay in Qingzhou to wait for Meng Kang's return since they had been captured by the Scorpion Queen. At the very least, they must use Qingzhou as their stronghold and send experts to search for Meng Kang's whereabouts.

In short, if they were dead, they wanted to see their corpses!

If they couldn't find Meng Kang, they wouldn't go anywhere!

As for the other leader of the Alliance, Hall Master Lei Yu had a good relationship with Gu Tian, and his mission this time was to protect the medical team, so wherever the medical team was, he and the brothers of the Wind and Thunder Hall would naturally stay there.

At the beginning, Lei Yu still wanted to take advantage of the year of disaster to build his career, but after he followed the medical team to save all the soldiers and civilians in the Qing Province, the intention in his heart had long since faded.

Rather than chasing down the chaotic army, it was better to guard the Qingzhou City well and borrow the opportunity to revive the Qingzhou City and save the lives of the countless citizens who had come upon hearing the news.

In just three short days, Qingzhou City was overcrowded, the population was three times more than before. Many of the victims were unable to enter the city, and could only depend on the walls of the city to live on.

Even so, they were still able to enjoy the treatment of the medical team, as well as having to set a time every day for their rations to reach the point of saving lives.

Qingzhou City's reputation in the entire disaster area became bigger and bigger, appearing frequently in all kinds of intelligence reports.

On this day, a large number of Qingzhou City's troops arrived.

It was a troop of about five thousand men, all of whom were mounted soldiers, and the flag they gave was that of the bandit army from the third route of the Great Halberd Sect.

The leader of the bandit army was a third stage imperial official, General Zhou Jian of the Right Martial Guard. He was a trusted subordinate of the mighty Sixth Prince, a general who had always been arrogant and despotic.

However, the Right Guard General Zhou Jian was indeed a tiger general, he had fought against the Spirit Demon race in the battlefield with his own hands, he was brave enough to fight and had made impressive achievements, he naturally had the ability to be arrogant.

He just didn't expect that the King of Might would actually send out the man under him, Lei Hu, for the disaster in the five prefectures.

However, thinking about it, he felt that it was no wonder. The army at the border was controlled by Teacher Hong Qiankun and had been in a confrontation with the Goblin Tribe for a long time.

For General Hu Lang, like Zhou Jian, if they wanted to quickly accumulate military merits, going to Fringe Town would be completely useless. They would kill bandits and make use of this time of disaster as a way to advance.

Previously, the Beijing Alliance had sent out the Hongxing Tang, Yannan, together with General Huban's medallion and bandit forces. They had also made similar plans, hoping to gain some military merits from the chaotic army.

However, Her Highness the Princess was acting in the name of the Beijing Alliance. She had attacked in the open and in the dark, while General Zhou Jian outside the city was officially appointed by the Imperial Court as the bandit army due to the efforts of the Sixth Prince.

"Everyone in the Qingzhou City, listen to me. Quickly open the city gates and welcome the great army into the city!"

Right Guard General Zhou Jian shouted from below the city.

The City lord's virtual front climbed up the city wall immediately and shouted in reply, "May I know what your name is, General? Which army did they bring? What proof do you have? "

Zhou Jian pulled on the reins and replied impatiently: "Cut the crap! I am General Zhou Jian of the Right Martial Guard, under the command of the Third Route of Bandit Army, passing through Qingzhou! "Quickly open the city gate, I have no time to talk nonsense with you."

Seeing that the general's words had a name, and his subordinates were strong and well-organized, and did not seem like they were made up of messed up soldiers, Xu Feng ordered for them to open the city to welcome them.

The third way was to exterminate the bandit troops, who were camped outside the city. They would be accompanied by the City lord's virtual front to escort Zhou Jian, who loved to lead hundreds of cavalry into the city to inspect the situation in the city.

Everything in the city was in an orderly manner. Even the shops on both sides of the street had opened their doors for business. People were passing through the streets. Everyone's faces were full of vigor; it was as if they had escaped the shadow left behind by the Year of Disaster.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the city was gradually recovering.

Zhou Jian and his guard, Centaur, were slowly walking on the main street of the Cyan Plains. This person had his eyes narrowed all the way, and had a cold expression the entire time, not saying a word.

Seeing that the other party's expression was strange, Xu Feng did not have much to say, so he could only accompany him, while probing: "General Zhou, your sect has worked hard outside, I asked the rich families in the city to send some food over, to treat everyone?"

General Zhou gave Xu Feng a slanted stare, and did not speak.

Xu Feng felt that he was being uninteresting, so he could only smile and no longer said anything.

When they reached the center of the street, General Zhou pulled on the reins and stopped in the middle of the street.

"City lord Xu, do you know that you have committed a crime worthy of the death of the head?"

Zhou Jian's ice-cold words immediately caused Xu Feng to feel as if he had fallen into a cloud. His face was filled with astonishment.

Zhou Jian snorted, he looked around and said: "When the time comes, it will be the year of great calamity. Qingzhou is the place where the calamity began, and is also the place with the heaviest calamity, who would have thought that it would be such a grand occasion! If I say that you, City Master Xu, do not have a relationship with Bandits, then I, Zhou Jian, will be the first one to doubt it! "

"General Zhou, you, you can't make random guesses!"

Xu Feng saw that the General Zhou was immediately splashed with dirty water and immediately explained.

Zhou Jian looked at Xu Feng with a profound look. The surrounding guards surrounded him in an eye-catching manner, with City Lord Xu Feng in the middle.

"Hehe!" You don't have to worry! What I said might not be true, but it's easy for others to figure it out! This general is just curious, if you didn't connect to the Bandits, where would you get the resources to save the city, where would you get the medicinal herbs to treat the plague? Could it be that the Bandits had already snuck into the city and hidden bandits among the people? Or could it be that the City Master of the Void and the so-called Bandits are one? "

General Zhou Jian continued to ask with a loud voice, as if he did not agree with what had said.

The other party's murderous aura scared Xu Feng to the point that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"General Zhou, you might not know this, but five days ago, our Cyan Plains faced a huge attack from the Bandits. As for the reason why there were so many ingredients and medicines in the city, honestly speaking, it was all thanks to the Shang Jing and the Beijing Alliance! It was they who brought a large amount of resources and medicinal ingredients to assist us, and even helped us to seize a large amount of resources from the Bandits s.

This time, Xu Feng revealed the entire truth, he thought that as long as he explained himself clearly, the general would not be in a difficult situation, furthermore, the backer of the Beijing Alliance was the current princess, and one of the Shangjing Ten Courtyards s was involved, so the opponent would at least give him some face!

After hearing Xu Feng's explanation, Zhou Jian could not help but burst out laughing.

His laughter was so loud that the pedestrians on the street raised their eyebrows.

"Are you telling me that the Beijing Alliance and the medical school joined hands to protect the Cyan Plains? What a joke! The medical school is a bunch of weak and weak chickens. You actually told me that they saved the Cyan Plains and even defeated the Bandits, didn't you say that we, who eat military rations, are not as good as them? "

"General, I have never said so! However, it is a fact that the alliance and the medical school have saved Qingzhou.

Xu Feng was also a little angry, this Qiu Ba was obviously here to cause trouble, what he said were not human words, since that was the case, he would not bother to beat around the bush with him.

Zhou Jian saw that Xu Feng was a little disgruntled, he immediately took action, grabbed the other party's horse by the head, and pushed the good horse under Xu Feng until it was unable to move. Then, he moved his face closer, and said shamelessly: "City lord Xu, think carefully! It will absolutely not fall into the hands of some dogshit alliance. If you don't find a strong enough backer, then your achievement will become a big disaster. For a little mayor like you, a few more lives would not be enough to pay for it! "

Xu Feng was furious, he struggled with all his might, but the opponent's wrist that was pressed down did not move at all, while the surrounding guards all had a sinister look in their eyes, as they all placed their hands on their blades.

"How can a lowly country official like you understand the political affairs of the court! You'd better cooperate with this general obediently, and maybe even get some benefits from it. Don't forget, what are you? With your status, you don't even have the qualifications to speak the truth! "

Zhou Jian sneered.

Xu Feng's body trembled, he finally understood what the other party meant.

The only thing to blame was that Qingzhou City's current performance was too good, especially in this year of great disaster, it was too excessive.

This political achievement was very eye-catching, and all the powers within the imperial court wanted it to be within their grasp.

A man's wealth is his own fault.

With such meritorious service, the Beijing Alliance would probably not be able to handle it, and there was even less of a need to talk about the medical school. The beloved general under the Sixth Prince was here to pick the fruits.

As long as he could keep Qingzhou City's achievements, it would be the biggest achievement in this year of disaster.

Adding on the help the Sixth Prince had behind him, the performance of the Qingzhou City would become his standing in the world.

Furthermore, if he obtained this qualifications, even the Sixth Prince would be proud.

In comparison, this had already involved the struggle between the princes. Indeed, a small city lord was not qualified to talk too much.

Thinking about it, Xu Feng's entire body was drenched in cold sweat, he did not dare say another word.

"Summon the people from the alliance and medical school. This general wants to chat with them! You did a good job with the Qingzhou City, this general will not treat you unfairly! "

Seeing Xu Feng's expression, Zhou Jian knew that he had submitted, and made an exception, revealing a smile that was not a smile, and instructed.

Xu Feng knew that he was trying to achieve a unified understanding of the situation, and that as long as the people of the and the Alliance did not dare to get involved, a piece of good news from Zhou Jian could be circulated to the people of the Shang Jing. And with the Sixth Prince supporting him, no one would dare say a word!

"Good, good!" General Zhou, please wait a moment, I will go invite the people from the Beijing Alliance! "

Xu Feng bowed, got out of Zhou Jian's grasp, and patted his horse as he left.
