Under the persuasion of Xiao Ailin, the black car driver, a group of girls continued to head towards the mountains.

People had been sent to clean up and investigate along the way, and Li Xu even asked Li Linyue to take a 500-strong elite soldier as the guard.

Little Ailin knows the importance of it. Although other girls don’t know the inside story, they won’t ask too much even if they have doubts in their hearts.

After Li Xu returned to the city, he did not have any extra actions. He had already arranged everything he should have arranged. Now he was waiting for the day when the wind was rising, the thunder sounded, and the storm finally hit.

The Qin army defeated soldiers who escaped from Yan'an Prefecture were taken away by the people from Hei Bingtai that night, and Zheng Yaoxian brought people here in person.

When Li Xu met Song Mu again the next day, he felt that the worries on his face became more serious.

Song Mu even asked him a question: "How do you think you can deal with sharp firearms?"

Li Xu's answer is simple, but it sounds like nonsense:

"Of course, it's a sharper firearm."

Song Mu was silent, as if he was thinking about how to have a sharper firearm in a short period of time, but after a moment, he shook his head a little depressed.

Obviously there is no way.

Not to mention the conditions of underdeveloped productivity in ancient times, even in Li Xu's previous life, a new gun had to be installed in the army. Even in the era of simple and fast wars, it would take at least several months or even a year to complete.

Not to mention this era when the industrial foundation is almost equal to zero.

After a moment of silence, Song Mu asked the second question:

"How likely do you think the Qin Dynasty will be to defend Chang'an City this time?"

Li Xu looked at him and felt that he was not as if he was testing, but really wanted to know an answer.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Give me your best to do my best."

Song Mu looked at Li Xu deeply and changed the topic: "You must treat Xiaoyuer well in the future. Her mother has been away early and has suffered a lot since she was a child. You are her god now. If there is any change in the future, you will rely on you to protect her."

Li Xu felt something in Song Mu's words, and seemed to realize something.

Is it because you are aware of your identity?

But it is unlikely to think about it. It should be an intuition that has been rising and falling in the officialdom for many years, so this kind of behavior similar to entrusting an orphan.

Li Xu nodded: "Little Yuer and I are in love with each other, so I will naturally love her. Uncle Song doesn't have to worry too much. As long as you work for the people and uphold your original intention, many things may not be that bad."

Song Mu looked at him, nodded, his expression calmed down a little, and he didn't know if he really understood what he meant.

But some words cannot be said too clearly at the moment, it depends on your personal fortune.

...

Although the news of Song Muyan's defeat and death spread, within two days, rumors in Chang'an City were everywhere.

"Have you heard that? The Ningguo Duke Lin Ruhai is dead!"

"I have heard of it a long time ago. I still know that he brought a 50,000 army to quell the rebellion, but the rebellion was not suppressed, but he died in Yan'an Mansion. I heard that he died so badly, and his head was cut off by the rebels and kicked as a ball..."

"What a 50,000 army? It's obviously a hundred thousand! I heard that the bodies were piled up like mountains, and the rebels had green faces and fangs, fierce and evil spirits. The killing officers cried and shouted at their parents. It was so miserable..."

"100,000? Why did I hear it was 150,000? And I heard that the Duke of Ning was caught by the rebels and lit the sky lantern directly. The man's oil burned for three days and three nights..."

"What is the origin of this rebel? Is it so powerful? Why does it sound like a yaksha in the underworld?"

Some people expressed doubts.

"Yasha? I heard that those rebels are two meters tall and fierce, and they need to say that they are fierce. The weapon they use in their hands that can spray lightning and fire. As long as they are hit, no matter what armor you wear, they will immediately split into pieces and turn into a pile of minced meat! And there is another even more powerful thunder. After a loud bang, the guy collapsed half of the city wall... Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's really scary!"

The man said the spit was splashing everywhere, and the people around him were stunned.

But there are some people who have some insights and immediately refute:

"You are purely absurd. Have you all the rebels you mentioned become heavenly soldiers and generals?"

The person before was very dissatisfied and stubborn: "Why am I just being careless? The neighbor of my third uncle's nephew's daughter-in-law was in the army at that time and saw it with my own eyes!"

The rebutter ignored him and said to everyone: "I heard that the Duke of Ning Guo Lin Ruhai was defeated this time because the rebels' firearms were too sharp. The 50,000 army was killed by others in less than an hour. Only a few hundred people could escape back to the capital! Duke of Ning Guo has greatly harmed the country..."

Everyone thought this person's words were more credible. The 50,000 army was wiped out in one hour, which made everyone take a breath.

However, at this time, everyone was still as mentally as a crowd of people who were eating melons and had not realized the real problem.

The man just now said with a heartache: "Dear young and old men, think about it carefully. The Duke of Ning Guo is dead. What will happen to the next step for the rebels?"

Everyone was thinking, and someone tentatively said, "Can the rebels still come to attack our Chang'an City?"

As soon as this was said, someone immediately refuted: "How is it possible? Chang'an City is the largest city in the world. The walls are high and thick, and there are moats protected. There are more than 100,000 troops stationed. If the rebels dare to come, they must break his mouth!"

"Bah! You can't catch up with the hot food even if you eat shit. You still have more than 100,000 troops? The Lin family father and son went to fight against the rebellion twice, and their entire army was wiped out twice. There were almost 100,000 people dead. Where can there be more than 100,000? Only the old, weak, sick and disabled people can stop the rebels?"

Immediately someone stood up and mocked his innocence.

Everyone was shocked, and then they realized that the defeat of the Lin family father and son seemed to have something to do with him.

"Oh! Lin Ruhai, who was cut into pieces, has the face of being called the 'God of Qin'. I'm about to be killed by him! No, I have to go back and pack up my things quickly. I can't stay in Chang'an City anymore! If I was captured and killed by the rebels, that would be really unlucky!"

A bunch of people agreed next to each other, and rushed back to pack up and escape.

"Look at your unreliable appearance! I heard that the rebels are not green forest robbers and bandits. I heard that the rebel leader Tang Hou was a descendant of Emperor Taizong of Tang. Not only was he very brave in life, but he also used troops like a god. He was even more helpless and created such a sharp firearm. Tang Hou made a great wish and was unwilling to watch the world split and swear to unify the world, ending the troubled times that have been fought and letting the people of the world live a peaceful life, so he raised an army in Yan'an Prefecture."

After saying this, those who were anxious to go home to pack up their things slowed down again.

"Taizong of Tang? Is that the Emperor of Heaven and Khan of the Eternal Emperor? His descendants, oh, that's a real nobleman."

Someone exclaimed.

"That's right, I also heard that Emperor Taizong of Tang, who had become an immortal, felt that the world was too chaotic in heaven, so he sent his descendants to come down to earth to unify the world again, and borrowed many magic weapons from Thunder God. Therefore, this Tang Hou could only beat the Lin father and son twice."

Although this sounds a bit mysterious, a group of people who eat melons still widen their eyes and subconsciously think it makes sense.

"I won't talk about whether it's a god or a god. I heard that this Tang Marquis loves the people as much as his son. He said in person that as long as he doesn't go against him, he will definitely treat the people well and make everyone live better than before."

"Mr. Tang really said that? I'm not greedy. As long as Mar. Tang comes, I can still be as warm as before. I'll be satisfied if I can have two meals a day."

"So, don't you have to run away?"

...

Li Xu was dressed in casual clothes and wearing a wide-brimmed sun hat. He sat at the table beside the window of a civilian restaurant, holding a glass of turbid wine, but his ears were raised to listen to the topics in the restaurant.

As he listened, his expression became strange and glared at Li Yang who was also disguised beside him.

Li Yang smiled bitterly and whispered: "Young Master, I didn't expect it to be like this..."

Sure enough, the people’s secondary processing capabilities are amazing!

Fortunately, the person who arranged the secretly brought the topic back to the regular, otherwise the building would become a bloody plot of featured fantasy fairy tale and magical materials.
