After hearing these words, everyone shouted in unison: "We have confidence!"

Seeing this scene, he also let go of his heart; subsequently, Zhou Ergou began to lead his civilian transport team.

And headed towards Feicheng. The sun was very satisfying along the way; many people felt very hot at this time, but no one felt tired.

They hurried along the way, from when the sun was just beginning to brighten, until the sun was shining directly on the earth.

They finally arrived at Feicheng; at this moment, everyone was panting heavily.

At this moment, the grain transport general under Ying Mo's command heading to the front lines.

Was hurrying along the way; they had spent too much effort waiting for grain this time.

So he was also very anxious; he was afraid that he would not be able to send the grain over in time.

When the time came, the crime he committed would be great, so he was urging the soldiers under his command along the way.

At this moment, they were resting; only to hear the general say to the deputy general behind him: "Our progress this time will probably be a bit slow."

"When the time comes, it will delay the entire schedule; I have already thought about how the Grand General will punish us. We have really made a mistake this time."

"You tell the brothers that they must speed up for us later; we cannot continue to be slow, and you let these brothers speed up for me."

"The rest time later will be reduced; after we leave Feicheng."

"We have to walk for a while longer before we can rest; let them relax properly after they arrive at Feicheng later."

After hearing these words, the deputy general beside him revealed a look of difficulty.

As the deputy general, he naturally knew what the general of this grain transport team was thinking.

In fact, the general of this grain transport team was also very anxious every day.

Because for him, he had a task, but because of the delay at the grain production site, he was also very uncomfortable.

Although he had already told Meng Tian at the front lines about this matter, he also felt guilty about it.

If this time it was really because of a lack of grain that the war opportunity was delayed.

Then he would also be unable to escape; the crime could not be exempted.

So along this (bfbc) road, they were also very tired; facing the general's complaints.

The deputy general also said helplessly: "This is also something that can't be helped."

"General, you have to know that we are already considered to be at the fastest speed this time."

"If we go any faster, I estimate we will have to sacrifice the lives of these soldiers. They have already spent a lot of effort to transport grain in such hot weather."

"Plus they have to guard against some bandits and the like around them, so the progress is relatively slow, but it hasn't been too slow."

"Everyone has already used the fastest speed; if we go any faster and don't rest, I'm afraid it won't be very good. Also, General, you have already mentioned speeding up three times; you have said it three times."

"I think the soldiers will also have great opinions; I think we shouldn't do this."

After the deputy general said these words, the general was also quite helpless, but it must be said that what the deputy general said was not just said casually.

But it was really the case, so at this time, the general was also very helpless.

But at this moment, he couldn't say anything more; if he couldn't speed up, then they could only go slowly.

Arriving at the previous time, he felt it would definitely be slow.

But now there was no better solution, so he couldn't say anything more.

Looking at the crowd, there was a trace of helplessness in his eyes, and even a trace of a sigh in his mouth.

Finally, they arrived at Feicheng; here, they found a tea shop.

He began to rest; at this moment, the general transporting grain also sat down to drink a cup of water.

In this hot summer, they were particularly refreshed, and at this moment, a piece of news suddenly came from behind.

"Someone has fainted, come over quickly!"

After hearing these words, someone immediately changed over.

And following this, the general also rushed over; after seeing this scene before him.

His face suddenly became bad.

Because a soldier had fainted due to heatstroke; although after brief rescue and some means, the soldier did not have any life-threatening danger.

And he had already been moved to a cool place, and presumably, he would get better very soon.

But at this moment, the general had a bad premonition.

He felt that there might be a problem this time; the other party's situation was so terrible now, which meant that the situation of the entire team was also very terrible.

At this moment, he slammed the teacup in his hand onto the table, and his face was naturally extremely ugly.

He felt that the task this time was too difficult; it was simply torture from heaven for him.

His mouth kept cursing the officials in the places where grain was produced, but this kind of cursing was ultimately powerless.

If they were really slow in transporting grain this time, then they could only blame their transport efficiency for being too low.

So at this time, he could only hold back this anger; he could only silently hope that the front lines would not fight yet, and wait for a while.

However, just when he was at his wit's end, he suddenly saw a large number of people and horses coming towards him from not far away.

And these people were together, looking aggressive, which made this general instantly alert; he was mainly responsible for grain transport.

At the same time, he also had to protect this grain; if this grain was snatched away, then he would have to bear the main responsibility.

So at this moment, he immediately ordered the soldiers under his command to pick up their swords and prepare to respond. However, after walking closer, he looked suddenly and found that the other party was wearing commoner clothes.

He was even more confused and asked directly: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

After hearing this, Zhou Ergou was particularly helpless.

Only to hear him say directly at this moment: "You are the general transporting grain, and you are transporting it directly to the front lines, right? I am here to find you this time."

However, after hearing these words, the general's face was a bit ugly.

Especially when he saw such a group of big men, he was even more confused; these people looked strong and powerful one by one.

Although he had professional soldiers on his side, wearing soft armor and holding weapons, he was still a bit nervous and even drew his sword.

When seeing this scene, Zhou Ergou instantly panicked.

He didn't expect the other party to have hostility towards him, but after thinking about it, he expressed that he could understand.

Subsequently, he was heard saying anxiously: "General, did you misunderstand me?"

"Actually, I don't have any hostility towards you. I am here mainly to tell you one thing: we are people from a nearby county because Young Master Ying Mo has helped us."

"So we want to come and help you transport grain. I have some proof from over there, which you can take a look at, and none of us are carrying any weapons."

"You can also look at this point carefully. Please rest assured, we are definitely not bandits, nor can we be unruly commoners."

"We are here this time to do one thing, and that is to help you transport grain. Besides that, we have no other thoughts."

· ·····Please send flowers· ··

At this moment, Zhou Ergou directly took out some proof; he naturally knew that he had to prepare everything in advance for doing such things.

Otherwise, it would be easy to be misunderstood; he was also a very reasonable person.

Naturally, he would not do some chaotic things; this was why those villagers chose him to be the captain of a civilian transport team!

When the general saw this scene, he suddenly revealed a look of surprise.

Subsequently, he returned the things to Zhou Ergou, and then smiled and said: "Then thank you very much; you are able to have such awareness."

"This makes us very excited; we will express our gratitude to you."

After hearing this, Zhou Ergou waved his hand and said directly: "What is this? The help Young Master Ying Mo gave us is the greatest."

"Please rest assured, these men of ours are all men who can endure hardship in the farmland. If they talk about fighting, they might not be as good as you."

"But if they talk about moving goods, they are definitely top-notch experts. Please rest assured."

Zhou Ergou began to praise the people under his command, and he was very confident, and he didn't lie; the people who followed him here.

Were indeed good men who farmed in their daily lives; they were strong and healthy.

One by one, their strength was so great that they could even lift half a cow. So at this moment, facing such a statement, the general transporting grain was naturally grinning from ear to ear.

This was simply wanting to sleep and having someone send a pillow; originally, just a moment ago, he was still very anxious.

He thought that he would be difficult to complete the task this time.

But when he saw the group of villagers behind Zhou Ergou.

He instantly had confidence; he thought that with this group of villagers, his grain transport would naturally be no problem. One must know that although most of the grain transport this time relied on horses.

But taking care of the horses, investigating the surrounding situation, and various places all required people, which led to their slow progress.
