I started as an exile, and I relied on space to support my family of loyal heroes.

Xiao Yunzhan was slightly stunned, pursed his lips and looked at Lin Yiran, suppressed the upturned corners of his mouth, and nodded heavily.

“Not as much as Shiquan City, but there are still many.”

"And----there are many corrupt officials..."

“…Is that so?”

Lin Yiran pulled the corners of her lips and laughed dryly. She raised her hand and pounded her thigh.

"Hey, I'm a little tired from traveling. I'm going to take a rest and have dinner later..."

Xiao Yunzhan looked at Lin Yiran trying to change the subject and running towards the three-wheeled motorcycle in small steps, and he burst out laughing.

He didn't tell Lin Yiran not to take in the prefect's family. Since he was going to take the money, he should treat everyone equally to avoid making the prefect a target.

Xiao Yunzhan turned his head and looked towards the gate of Pinghe City. Their camp was nearly three miles away from the city gate, and he couldn't see clearly due to his poor eyesight.

"Sigh~"

Xiao Yunzhan narrowed his eyes and saw dozens of refugees moving towards this side from afar.

Judging from the way these people walk, they seem to be martial artists.

He frowned slightly and stepped forward.

.......

"General Xiao..."

"It's General Xiao..."

"I am here to see General Xiao..."

“…”

When dozens of secret guards saw Xiao Yunzhan, they immediately knelt down excitedly.

Xiao Yunzhan frowned, and scanned the faces of the secret guards one by one, feeling anxious.

"Why are you here? What happened in Brahma City?"

These secret guards were left by him for the military advisor, so how come they appeared among the refugees?

Could it be that Emperor Wu of Liang took action against the Xiao family’s private soldiers?

That shouldn't be the case, Lin Yiran said. The dog emperor imprisoned his father and found a replacement in order to easily take over the Xiao family's private army for his own use. How could he attack the Xiao family's private soldiers?

The leading secret guard looked up at Xiao Yunzhan excitedly.

"The subordinates followed the military advisor's order to rescue General Xiao. Nothing happened in Brahma City. The soldiers are waiting for General Xiao to return. Rebellion against the dog emperor!"

The secret guard glanced at the dark mass of horses not far away and felt extremely excited.

He was worthy of being the General Xiao they admired, as he managed to gather so many soldiers on the way to escape.

"How many of you came out?"

Xiao Yunzhan sighed lightly. The military advisor was still so bold.

From the moment the military advisor sent secret guards to rescue him, he was mentally prepared to rebel.

"There are two hundred people in total. The military advisor asked his subordinates to split up into smaller groups to prevent being targeted by the government. The other brothers all rushed to Ningguta from different directions."

Xiao Yunzhan nodded.

"Send out the contact signal and call back the others."

"Also, there is only General Hu here now, not General Xiao."

Now is not the time to reveal his identity.

However, once he arrived in Pingliang City, his identity could no longer be concealed.

Pingliang City is adjacent to Brahma City. When he was at war with Xiliang, he led his troops to station in Pingliang City, and the people all knew him.

".....Yes! General Tiger!"

The secret guards responded, took out the communication signal in their arms, and released it into the sky with a whoosh.

As soon as the assembly signal flare was sounded, the secret guards hiding in various places had their eyes lit up and rushed towards the direction of the flare.

Xiao Yunzhan divided the secret guards into several teams and told the women of the Xiao family about the secret guards.

After the remaining secret guards have arrived, they can be asked to manage the training soldiers together to improve the training efficiency.

Lin Yiran simply waved her hand and appointed the secret guards assigned to her as centurions, with one person in charge of a hundred people. She just had to observe on the spot.

The sudden appearance of the centurion from the sky made Zhu Changshou feel so uncomfortable that he wanted to cry, before he could even open his mouth to exchange ideas with the centurion.

The four small flags could not hold back and spoke before him.

Zhu Changshou watched helplessly as the four small flags were defeated by the airborne centurion without any success and instantly shut up.

Come on, the airborne centurion has real skills, and we can only admit that we are not as skilled as him.

During dinner, the secret guards' eyes almost popped out of their heads when they saw the food suddenly appear.

They trained with the refugees for a while and had a general understanding of the situation in the garrison.

There were plenty of people and horses, but there was not a single piece of food. I was wondering how so many people could survive.

So much food suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and looking at the calm expressions of these refugees, it was obvious that they had gotten used to it.

The secret guards suppressed their shock, pretended to be calm, and followed the refugees to receive food.

After taking a bite of the meat bun, the secret guards almost shed tears.

Damn, no wonder these refugees look so energetic, they must be living a really good life.

...........

After dinner, the soldiers exercised for a while. Those who were not familiar with riding horses exercised for a while on their own initiative, and then they all fell asleep soon.

Xiao Yunzhan stared at Lin Yiran for a while. Even when the women of the Xiao family started snoring, he still didn't see Lin Yiran's soul leave her body.

Seeing that it was almost three o'clock in the morning and Lin Yiran showed no sign of leaving, Xiao Yunzhan sighed helplessly.

He also wanted to follow Lin Yiran's soul to see how she harvested. It seemed that Lin Yiran was too tired today and would not go to harvest Pinghe City tonight.

Xiao Yunzhan sighed softly, took his sword, stood up gently, raised his feet and performed light skills, and quickly ran towards Pinghe City.

When the secret guards heard the noise, they frowned and looked in the direction where General Xiao disappeared. After hesitating for a moment, they lay down again.

General Xiao did not let them follow him, probably because he had some personal matters to deal with. No one in Pinghe City could hurt General Xiao, so there was no need to worry.

When Lin Yiran heard Xiao Yunzhan standing up, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

This guy is really slow. It takes him so long to take action.

She just wanted Xiao Yunzhan to go to Pinghe City first, and then she would go, so that the prefect's house would not be robbed and she would not be in the mood to deal with Xiao Yunzhan.

Just as Lin Yiran raised her hand and was about to put the soul-leaving pill into her mouth, green bubbles suddenly flashed eagerly.

Lin Yiran frowned and turned her head to glance at Mrs. Xiao who was snoring in her sleep.

If it's not Old Madam Xiao, then it can't be Old General Xiao. She has discovered a pattern over time. As soon as it gets dark, Old General Xiao doesn't want anything, but as soon as the sun rises, he starts asking for this and that.

That’s Xiao Yunzhan. What happened to this guy just after he left?

Lin Yiran pulled the corners of her lips, opened the green bubble, and saw the flashing avatar. Her eyes widened instantly.

"Oh my god, when did Big Brother's profile picture light up!?"

Looking at the flashing profile picture of Big Brother, Lin Yiran couldn't help but feel happy.

"The eldest brother is not dead, so there is no need to guess that the second and third brothers are definitely alive as well."

My sisters-in-law are so nice, how can I let them remain widows?

Even if her three brothers died, she would find new families for her sisters-in-law. It was impossible for her to remain a widow.

After all, they are father and son. Even the bright avatar is not obvious. The eldest brother’s avatar is dark and gray, with only one tooth showing in a sneer, flashing a cold light.

Lin Yiran quickly clicked on the profile picture of her eldest brother Xiao Yunhao, and saw a line of red words flashing on the chat box.

"Xiao Yunhao, who doesn't even blink an eye, is in urgent need of a sharp sword. Please buy it for him..."
