"This is too good to be a checkpoint, and the guards are so relaxed." Huang Feng thought to himself as he walked on the street inside the pass.
Originally, he thought he would be troublesome if he wanted to enter such a pass. After all, this kind of city is generally the front line of defense against the enemy. For those who are unidentified, he must be interrogated. It’s very strict. Under normal circumstances, people who don’t have a guide will find it difficult to enter ordinary cities, not to mention entering this kind of pass. Huang Feng thought he would be stopped outside the city or be irritable. Soldiers, just grab them.
However, the facts are not what Huang Feng thought. At the gate of the city, soldiers were indeed guarding them. However, those soldiers were lazy, and apart from charging people entering the city, there was no extra questioning at all. Just glanced at Huang Feng and let him in. As for Lu Yin, he didn't even mention it.
Although this did make Huang Feng less troublesome and entered the city smoothly, Huang Feng still couldn't help but complain about the attitude of these soldiers from the Da Lu Dynasty. If there were any spies. Wouldn’t it be easy to get in?
It's no wonder that the Great Lu Dynasty would lose to Feng Jueguo in succession on the battlefield. This vigilance was too bad.
Of course, what Huang Feng doesn't know is that the defense here was not so lax before. Before the previous battle with Feng Jueguo, the defense here was still very tight. It is very difficult for black households like Huang Feng to enter. of.
However, everything has changed since the war. After that fiasco, Feng Jueguo took control of this place. They burned, robbed, robbed, and wreaked havoc here. Valuable things are either robbed or destroyed. Now, although this pass has been returned to the Dalu dynasty by Feng Jueguo, it does not have much value anymore. There is no valuables, and the city defense has also been destroyed. Destroyed, the people with the most wind of the country might not look down on this place anymore. Therefore, the Dalu court guard who came here felt that there was nothing to be worried about here. When defending, naturally It also slackened a lot.
In addition, there are not many soldiers from the Great Lu Dynasty who came here this time. They have to clean up the garbage in the city, repair the city defense, etc. There are a lot of things to do, and there is no intention to defend the city. When the city wall came out, except for a few soldiers at the gate of the city to maintain law and order and charge some fees for entering the city, there were no other soldiers. There was not even a patrolling soldier on the front of the city.
Of course, what they did was related to the armistice agreement signed between Feng Jueguo and the Dalu dynasty. Feng Jueguo came to pick up the pro team this time. In order not to cause misunderstandings, they also stopped far outside the city, which made Dalu. The generals and soldiers of the DPRK all saw Feng Jueguo's sincerity and believed that they would not attack the Dalu Dynasty in a short time. If this is the case, why do they waste so much energy to defend the city?
This also led to the fact that black households like Huang Feng easily entered the city, and some merchants who saw business opportunities came here. After the war, whether it was from the Great Lu Dynasty or Feng Jueguo, they would all enter. During a period of development, a lot of commodities will be needed. This is a business opportunity. Although it is not safe outside the customs, many merchants still choose to take the risk for the high profits. As long as they succeed, the profits earned are enough They enjoy it for a long time.
Therefore, when Huang Feng walked on the streets of this still very shabby city, what he saw was not completely deserted, but a lot of people were walking around, and there were also a lot of vendors selling, they were all from Dalu. In various places in North Korea, many people want to go out to do business outside the customs. This is an important way to exit the customs. Therefore, everyone will gather here before leaving the customs, and at the same time, they will also trade what they want here. .
Some things in the customs, as long as they are sold outside the customs, can make a lot of profit, which is much better than trading inside the customs. This is also the reason why so many people know the dangers outside the customs and go outside the customs. However, many businessmen are for safety reasons. , Will also find some guards to surround his belongings when he leaves the customs, to prevent being targeted by horse thieves on the road.
However, those who can hire a escort are usually large businessmen or people from some chambers of commerce, and those small businessmen will choose to gather together and set off after gathering. In this case, there will be an accident on the road. Fortunately, there is a caregiver. Of course, there are also some small businessmen who gather together and pool money to hire some guards.
Therefore, at this time in this city, in addition to those merchants who want to venture outside, there are still many guards. This situation also existed before, but before, the guards in the city The military strength is still very strong, they will not allow those guards to wear swords and walk around on the street.
However, at this time, the guarding force of this city is already very weak. The strength of the defenders of the Dalu Dynasty has seriously declined. Now they are busy repairing the city defense, cleaning up the garbage in the city, etc., so there is not much energy to manage. The escorts hired by the merchants caused Huang Feng to see many people wearing swords on the street.
Although there are many people who wear swords, Huang Feng is not at all worried. These people may have some skills compared to ordinary people, but in front of him, it is obviously not enough, even these people Together, it will not be Huang Feng's opponent.
And the other people on this street didn’t feel anything unusual about these people wearing swords. Before, the residents in this pass were either killed or escaped, or they were captured as prisoners by Feng Jue. China has gone, and now there are not many people here. Except for the guards of the Da Lu Dynasty soldiers, only a small part of them have just moved in. Of course, there are also some people who have escaped here before. came back.
Compared with the terrible Fengjueguo people, these people who wear swords are obviously more trustworthy. They can even bring a sense of security to the residents in the city. After all, if there is really a war, these people They are all forces that can fight.
Huang Feng walked into a large restaurant, ordered a few dishes, a pot of wine, and then just ate and observed the surroundings.
So far, Huang Feng has nothing specific to do. He is still strolling leisurely. Such a situation is rare before. However, Huang Feng is not in a hurry, he has already come to this space anyway. , You can come again in the future, any plans or ideas can be implemented slowly.
"Hey, have you heard that? More than ten miles outside the city, there are windy people camping there. I heard that there are still a lot of troops." While Huang Feng was drinking, several people on the table next to him They are also drinking and chatting, and looking at them, they should all be businessmen preparing to leave the customs.
"Who doesn't know about this?" Another person said: "Those Feng Jueguo people have been here for almost two days, but I heard that they are here to pick up our princess, not to attack here, so ah ,do not worry."
"Speaking of this marriage, it makes people angry. I think we need to use marriage to maintain our country. Now we need to use marriage to maintain it. It really loses the face of our ancestors." The person next to him took a sip of wine. Said.
"Who said no." Another said: "Many people are very angry about this incident. I heard that the rebels also attacked the family-sending team and wanted to take the princess back, but it didn't seem to be successful. "
"I also heard about this. I heard that the two sides fought in Cangling Mountain for a day. In the end, the two sides suffered heavy losses. They retreated and failed to take the princess back."
Everyone talked about the marriage. Obviously, many people are still stubborn and unacceptable about it. However, they are just ordinary businessmen, and there is no other way except to get angry.
Regarding the fact that the rebel forces ambushed their relatives, these well-informed businessmen who went north and south had also heard about it. They knew about it earlier than ordinary people. In this era of underdeveloped news, even if it is The two places are only a dozen miles apart, and it may take months for what happened in the other place to get here.
However, these businessmen obviously have their news channels, so they will know some things in advance. However, the knowledge is not very clear, and even the wrong news will be heard. This is normal. After all, it is impossible here. Compared with modern times, the delivery of messages is likely to have a large delay and large errors.
"I also heard that people who have thoughts about the family-sending team this time are not only those from the rebel army, but also people from some surrounding countries." At this time, a middle-aged man said mysteriously: "You may not You know, during this period of time outside the customs, there are suddenly a lot of horse thieves. You can see if there are a lot more people in the pass than before. Some are worried about those horse thieves, so I dare not leave the customs and stay temporarily. Inside the customs."
"I said why there are so many people here, even if they want to make war fortune, there shouldn't be so many people here." Another person suddenly said.
Although there are many people who want to make war money, they often don’t stay here for too long. They either leave the customs or go to other places in the customs instead of staying in this place with few residents. It's not that people don't want to go, but they dare not go and can't go.
"I also heard about the horse thief. I heard that there were a lot more at once. I have stayed here for a few days. I didn't dare to leave the customs. I thought it would be safer to wait for more people to go together." .
