Apart from Zhou Zhenguang, everyone firmly believed that Zhou Cheng was able to take Fan Wei's head, and the number of men he brought was at least a thousand, if not ten thousand. Otherwise, how could he have survived to reach the border?
However,
Answer them.
It was a calm and composed statement that, yet it stirred up a storm: "Including my second sister and the others, there are a total of twenty-three people on this trip."
There was no one else.
No sooner had these words been spoken than Grand Tutor Cheng, who had caught up breathlessly, began to shout, "And me too! And this old man too!"
"My old bones almost broke on the way."
"General Zhou, your son has been so heartless on this journey. He thought I talked too much and was too talkative, so he refused to let Black Rat carry me. In the end, he even abandoned me halfway. I was exhausted from running around like this."
As soon as the sound faded...
Everyone stood there dumbfounded.
Even Grand Tutor Cheng has come?
A group of more than twenty people, including the elderly and the young, actually managed to break through the encirclement and kill by Emperor Yan and survive to the border.
No, the most important thing is that Zhou Cheng still came carrying Fan Wei's head.
Oh my God!
What exactly happened?
The old general was completely stunned. His mind went blank as he pointed at Grand Tutor Cheng, then at Fan Wei's head: "You, how did you manage to survive here with so few people?"
"And what about the food?"
"General Zhou said that as soon as you arrive at the border, all our difficulties will be resolved."
"Our soldiers have already reached their limit. If we run out of food and supplies tonight, I'm afraid the death toll will be no less than 10% by tomorrow morning."
The word "grain" was mentioned.
Those soldiers, whose faces were filled with despair and who were prepared to die, all had a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
One by one, they slowly raised their heads.
One by one, they subconsciously swallowed.
One by one, they nervously dug at the snow with their fingers.
They all looked at Zhou Cheng, at this young man who was so young that it was hard to believe, whose romantic affairs were known throughout the entire Yan Kingdom, and whom no one had any expectations of.
Can a spoiled brat who only knows how to chase after Lin Jiaoyun really bring hope to the army?
"Fourth brother, the grain...?" Second sister also looked at Zhou Cheng nervously.
"Heh." Zhou Cheng chuckled easily.
He stood in the most conspicuous position.
Facing the soldiers who were numb with hunger.
In short,
One line of text
With lofty aspirations and inspiring spirits: "I have brought tens of thousands of bushels of grain and tens of thousands of cotton clothes and quilts with me on this journey. From this moment on, with Zhou Cheng here, I will never let the soldiers who follow the Zhou family suffer even a bit of hunger again!"
The moment the voice fell, the old general felt a buzzing in his head.
He was so excited that his entire body was trembling.
His eyes were red.
He glanced at Zhou Zhenguang, whose face was filled with pride.
With a bang.
He knelt down before Zhou Zhenguang, his voice choked with sobs, "General! Our army is saved! Good, good, I never imagined your son would be so capable."
"It seems those rumors really can't be believed."
"I apologize for my disappointment and resentment towards you these past two days. As long as the soldiers can survive, I am willing to be disposed of by you!"
"We are at General Zhou's disposal!"
The other generals, their eyes red, knelt on one knee before Zhou Zhenguang.
Zhou Zhenguang stepped forward with a sense of relief and emotion, saying nothing but patting the shoulders of the group.
All the soldiers were terrified and shouted out loud.
Some even cried out, overwhelmed with joy at the prospect of no longer facing death, having a chance to live, and seeing their families again: "Good, good! I knew the general wouldn't abandon us..."
"I knew there would be hope."
