Changsun Dongcai and Zhao Hu stood on the city gate tower, watching with envy as the large army left Shiquan City.
"Hey, why keep me here? Why not just let Lin Changshou stay here?"
Zhao Hu raised his hand and patted the city wall in frustration.
"Lin Changshou has managed a village before, so managing Shiquan City is no problem at all."
"Shiquan City is just a larger village. How difficult is it to manage?"
"Besides, don't you, the military advisor, help him?"
The more Zhao Hu spoke, the more he felt that what he said made sense.
"No, I'll catch up now and switch with Lin Changshou..."
Chang Sun Dongcai, who was looking at the huge army of the gods with a proud and excited look on his face, heard that Zhao Hu was going to make trouble again, and quickly reached out and grabbed his arm.
"You better save your trouble."
"King Yongchang handed Shiquan City over to you and me because he trusted us."
"You so casually disobeyed military orders. How do you expect Prince Yongchang to punish you?"
"You must remember that Prince Yongchang will be the future emperor, and his words are his will."
"Don't treat him as the former General Xiao, you can talk back and complain as you please."
Chang Sun Dongcai looked at Zhao Hu, who was full of dissatisfaction, with a serious expression.
“You, you…”
Chang Sun Dongcai sighed deeply.
"You should learn from Lin Changshou. Look how obedient he is to orders."
"When have you ever seen Lin Changshou disobey General Long's orders?!"
Zhao Hu frowned.
"Lin Changshou took the photo----"
"Hey, hey, hey!" Chang Sun Dongcai interrupted Zhao Hu directly, "Be careful with your words and actions."
"Lin Changshou's skills are enough for you to learn for a lifetime, so don't look down on him."
"If you continue to be so aggressive, I'm afraid you'll have to bow to Lin Changshou every time you see him..."
"Tsk~" Zhao Hu rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction.
"Lin Changshou and I are very different. He is a civil servant, and I am a military commander."
"A military commander naturally has the aura of a military commander."
Anyway, he just looked down on Lin Changshou's flattery all day long.
He always felt that Lin Changshou was like a eunuch in the palace.
The eunuch in the palace is responsible for taking care of the emperor in everything.
He had never seen a general who took care of the emperor in every matter. A general only needed to lead the soldiers well and fight well.
"Didn't you see Lin Changshou practicing martial arts every day?"
"With Lin Changshou's hardworking spirit, he might become an official who is both civil and military!"
Chang Sundong glanced at Zhao Hu, then turned to look at the mighty Tianshen Army marching along the official road.
"Also, King Yongchang has entrusted you and me with the construction of the official road from Shiquan City to Wuyi City. This is a major event that will go down in history."
"Now that the lives of the people in Shiquan City are back on track, the construction of the official road can begin."
"Let's go~"
Chang Sundong was too lazy to argue with Zhao Hu anymore. It was more important to get down to business.
Even if he talked until his mouth was hoarse, Zhao Hu would not understand.
When a scholar meets a soldier, he cannot explain himself clearly even if he is right.
Reality will slap Zhao Hu in the face in the future, and he will naturally regret it then.
Zhao Hu took a deep look at the departing Tianshen Army, sighed, and followed Changsun Dongcai down from the city gate tower...
.......
"Oh, it's been so many days, why haven't the God Army come yet?"
"That's right. If we continue like this, we'll die of thirst."
"It's not good at all. Those officials are just fine. They all ran away with their families and don't care about the lives of us ordinary people..."
"Why don't we go directly to Shiquan City? I heard that the treatment for soldiers there is quite good..."
"I want to go too, but my health isn't good enough. I'm afraid I'll die of thirst halfway through the journey."
“.......”
........
The gate tower of Wuyi City was crowded with civilians as thin as skeletons, as well as some listless soldiers guarding the city.
All these people looked eagerly towards the direction of Shiquan City.
I had heard that the Heavenly God Army had reached Shiquan City, but I haven't seen them attack us yet.
Especially after they learned that it was raining in Shiquan City and knew how the Tianshen Army was treated, they were almost anxious to death.
During this period, many people with good physical strength had already run to Shiquan City in advance. Those who remained in Wuyi City were anxious and stretched their necks waiting for the Tianshen Army to attack.
Several officials in Wuyi City died of thirst, and they had long since accepted their fate.
We can't count on support from the capital if we are short of water. There is no water in the capital, so what support is there?
Wuyi City has prayed for rain many times, but to no avail.
All the officials of Wuyi City fled with the elite soldiers who were defeated by the Heavenly God Army.
The news brought by the elite soldiers made them full of yearning for Shiquan City and full of expectations for the Heavenly God Army.
This was the first time they hoped so much that the rebels would attack.
"Hey hey hey, look!!"
Suddenly, one of the tall and thin men excitedly pointed in the direction of Shiquan City.
"Is it the God's Army that's attacking?"
