"Victims?"
Lin Xu frowned. What were the victims doing at this time? Even if they dug a river channel on the spot, it would be too late.
At this time, a strong man came over carrying an old man on his back and came directly to Lin Xu.
"Caomin Zhang Tianyue (Qian Zhude) bows to Your Majesty, long live my emperor."
The two of them knelt on the ground regardless of the muddy road.
Lin Xu immediately dismounted and helped them up personally: "Please get up, sir. Are you in trouble?"
The old man shook his head: "We are nearby villagers. We heard that His Majesty planned to support Luoya City, but was blocked by the flood, so we came here to help His Majesty and all the soldiers."
"You all know?"
Lin Xu sighed.
Originally, he wanted to conceal the news of the barbarian attack, so as to prevent the newly settled people from panic again.
However, this incident was too big, and Xishan Jijun was very close to Luoya City.
In the end, I couldn't hide it.
"His Majesty personally came to Xishan Ji County to tide over the difficulties with us people, and even used work-for-relief methods to give us hope of survival."
"Although we are just ordinary people, we are not mindless animals. Your great kindness and kindness will be remembered by all the people in Xishanji County."
"Today, His Majesty encountered difficulties in his expedition. How could he be stopped by this small flood?"
"Let the common people help His Majesty!"
After speaking, the old man waved his hand directly behind: "Everyone, get into the water!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of people rushed out. They all had heavy sacks tied to their bodies and jumped into the flood without hesitation.
Lin Xu's expression changed greatly and he said quickly: "What are you doing? Come up quickly. There are many hidden rocks and dangers in the torrent. I have a way to cross the river."
The old man was unmoved and said firmly: "The flood can flood our homes and we ordinary people, but it must not flood our sky."
"Your Majesty, please bring your troops there!"
With that said, more than a dozen people rushed out carrying wooden boards and placed them directly on the shoulders of those who were going down to the river.
A bridge made of people appears directly.
Gu Jing and the soldiers of the Mu family army looked shocked.
They have been on countless expeditions and have never encountered such a scene.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty already has such great prestige in the eyes of the people.
Natural disasters and man-made disasters cannot be countered by human power.
But these people used their thin bodies to resist the flood like wild beasts.
The floodwaters were strong and there was nothing visible under the water.
Aren't they afraid of death?
It's not that the people are all afraid of death, so why did these people jump in without hesitation even though they knew there was danger inside.
The flood was no less than a mountain of swords and a sea of fire.
While others were shocked and didn't know what to do, Lin Xu took action.
He jumped directly into the upper reaches of the flood, and his internal energy surged like a tsunami. The golden wires formed a dense network and intercepted the upper reaches of the flood.
All the dark stones and dangers under the water are torn apart by the large net of golden wires.
"Your Majesty!" The old man's expression changed drastically. He did not expect that Your Majesty would jump down on his own initiative.
"Zhao Zilong, lead people across the river."
Lin Xu shouted, these people have good intentions, but they underestimate the danger of floods.
If he didn't take action, let alone whether they could get through, even if they could get through, these people would probably die.
Even if he doesn't die, he will be disabled for life.
"Your Majesty, come up quickly, the flood is dangerous."
Gu Qing's face was full of anxiety, but when he saw that Lin Xu was indifferent, he also jumped down and worked with Lin Xu to resist the threat in the flood.
"Everyone cross the river quickly. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
Zhao Zilong was the first to act, riding his white horse onto the wooden bridge made of manpower.
His Majesty gave an order and he would not disobey it.
But after walking over, Zhao Zilong inserted his spear into the ground and jumped into the flood.
One land god and two grand masters are enough to cover the entire torrent.
The Mu army officers looked at each other, and finally began to cross the river slowly.
But when they passed by, they immediately took off their armor and clothes, jumped into the water, and carried the wooden bridge with the people.
Fifty thousand people crossing the river is not a small number
Even martial arts masters can't hold on, let alone these people who have just experienced the flood.
But they are different. They have been trained in the military all year round, and their bodies are many times stronger than ordinary people.
In front of 50,000 people, a wooden bridge was not enough. Some anxious soldiers took off their armor and swords on the shore, raised them above their heads, and slowly flowed across the flood.
After they put their armor on the opposite side, they immediately came back to fight against the wooden bridge.
A ruthless flood inadvertently brought the hearts of the people and all the soldiers present closer.
The integration of military and civilians was almost unimaginable in the past.
When Lin Xu saw this scene, he was sincerely relieved.
This was the warrior he really wanted to see.
No one in the Mu family army expected that after this incident, their trust in each other would increase significantly.
More and more people took off their armor and began to help the people.
There were also people standing guard around. There were a large number of naked soldiers in the flood. If an enemy came over at this time, the consequences would be disastrous.
When the old man on the bank saw this scene, tears appeared in the corners of his eyes.
This scene was exactly what he wanted to see in his dreams.
Ordinary people, soldiers who protect their homes and countries, generals who have experienced hundreds of battles, and even the current His Majesty.
In order to conquer this flood, they cooperated very well.
There was a smile on everyone's face, as if in their eyes, this fast and dangerous flood was a harmless little sheep.
"God bless Qianwu, and our people finally have a wise king."
The old man couldn't control his tears anymore and started crying directly on the shore.
But the cry was not of sadness, but of joy and excitement.
Tears also appeared in the eyes of the people carrying wooden boards in the river. Only they knew best what this cry meant.
Looking at the soldiers around them who usually looked fierce but now stood with them with kind faces, everyone was trembling in their hearts.
This is something I don't even dare to dream about.
With everyone's concerted efforts, the problem of flooding seemed to no longer exist, and all 50,000 people quickly crossed the river.
Lin Xu checked the people and found that only a dozen people were slightly injured, so he continued to set off with peace of mind.
Now is not the time to give thanks. The life and death of all the soldiers in Luoya City are uncertain. They don't have that much time to waste.
The Daman army must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise these people will suffer. Lin Xu will never allow this situation.
However, after this incident, the cohesion of their 50,000-strong army was particularly strong and their morale was high.
Every soldier's eyes flashed with fighting spirit.
Because they were all deeply moved by the actions of the people.
Perhaps this is why they sacrifice their lives to protect their homeland.
"Gu Jing, do you know the Mu family army?" Lin Xu, who was walking at the front, suddenly said.
"Your Majesty, that's natural. I have been in the Mu Family Army since I joined the army at the age of twenty. Thanks to Duke Wu's guidance, I have climbed from a soldier to my current position."
Gu Jing smiled and said with a little pride in his tone. He has reached his current position with his military exploits, which is something that any soldier should be proud of.
"I don't think you understand." Lin Xu shook his head directly: "Look back, do you still know the Mu family army now?"
"That's natural. They are all brothers who have lived with me through life and death. How could they not recognize..."
Gu Jing turned his head and stopped mid-sentence. There seemed to be a ball of flame burning in the eyes of every soldier, full of fighting spirit, like a great beast that was ready to attack.
"Is this a military spirit!?"
Humans have souls, and so do animals.
Everything in the world has its soul, but everyone understands it differently and sees things differently.
For an army, only by forming a military soul can it be a qualified army.
Such an army, even if the whole army is wiped out one day in the future, will bring nightmare-like fear to the enemy.
