Chapter 10 Emergencies (1)

The most important task of this exploration of a different world is to verify whether humans can survive in a different world, followed by various research.

When this main task is not completed, explorers are not allowed to actively contact people from other worlds. Simply put, in the past few months in the other world, we should try to be as low-key and quiet as possible, and not cause trouble and attract people's attention.

In a flash, two months have passed.

In the past two months, nothing happened and it was peaceful. Seeing that the exploration plan for another world was about to be completed successfully, I didn’t expect that on November 7, this tranquility was broken by an accident.

At 2:15 am on November 7, this time was in the most sleepy period of the day. Liang Aiguo was lying on the bed and slept soundly. Suddenly, a ringtone sounded by his bed, which made Liang Aiguo suddenly wake up. He immediately picked up the communicator that was ringing and asked: "Hey, what happened?"

"Report to the team leader, a rebellion occurred in Baiyue slaves in Shen County."

When Liang Aiguo heard that it was not a problem at the camp, he felt relieved and said, "I understand! I'll pass on my order and notify all the team leaders of the armed group to go to the command room for a meeting, and all the personnel of the armed group are on standby."

"Yes, team leader!"

Liang Aiguo put down his communicator, quickly put his clothes on, put the communicator into his pocket, quickly left his tent, and went to the command room.

When he arrived at the command room, he saw Yang Xiao, the deputy team leader who was on duty in the command room. Liang Aiguo asked, "Old Yang, what happened?"

Yang Xiao is a soldier who is about the same age as Liang Aiguo. He replied: "It was the Baiyue slaves in Shen County that rebelled. Just a few minutes ago, we sent the reconnaissance equipment in Shen County that we found that Baiyue slaves suddenly attacked the Chu army guarding them."

Liang Aiguo looked at the scene that was sent back and saw that the camp where Baiyue slaves were originally guarding were in chaos, with figures shaking, and many places were burning. The sounds returned on the scene were very messy, but you could still hear someone shouting:

"The chief of the soldier is dead, send someone to the city to inform the general!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, rush away these beasts!"

"Stop them and rob their horses, and don't let these Chu dogs run away!"

"Kill these Chu dogs and avenge the dead elders and villagers!"

Unfortunately, although these Baiyue slaves were numerous and had premeditated in advance, they had a sudden attack, but they had not received training. Moreover, as slaves, they had to work hard labor all day long and had poor food, so they actually let several Chu soldiers riding horses rush out.

Seeing these Chu soldiers rush out to Shenxian County, someone among the Baiyue refugees shouted: "Famous people, run away quickly. When the Chu dogs in the city come, they will not be able to leave. Only by escaping into the mountains can we have a way out. Friends, run with me!"

These Baiyue slaves were not stupid either. They knew that the uprising was planned in advance tonight, and their strength was not enough to compete with the Chu army head-on. After hearing these words, they immediately ran into the mountains and forests. Now that the farther they had before the Chu army left the city to arrest them, the better. Could it be that they would stay in place and wait for the Chu army to come and take their heads?

On the other side, the Chu army rode to the foot of Shenxian County. After some inquiries, the soldiers guarding the city let a few people into the city. The few quickly arrived in front of a luxurious mansion in Shenxian County. After a briefing, they were introduced into the mansion.

Not long after, a general wearing dark armor drove out of the mansion gate with a red horse, and followed several cavalry to the military camp in the city.

After about twenty minutes, the gate of Shen County opened wide, and a Chu army set out from the city gate and rushed out of the city.

At this time, the group of Baiyue slaves had escaped for a while!

……………………

In the command room, Liang Aiguo saw more than a thousand Baiyue slaves fleeing into the mountains and frowned and asked, "Why didn't you find out earlier? Do you know what the consequences will be if these Baiyue slaves escape to the valley where we are?"

Liang Aiguo's words were not asking why he didn't find out that the Baiyue slaves had launched a rebellion earlier, but asking why he didn't find out that the Baiyue slaves were planning a rebellion earlier. If he found out earlier, he could make some preparations before, instead of just like now, and only passively do things when things are coming.

If these Baiyue slaves fled to the valley, they would probably be exposed.

The head of the reconnaissance team is a soldier in his twenties. He said: "I am dereliction of duty for this matter. I will report it to the superiors and take responsibility!"

Liang Aiguo said mercilessly: "This is not your dereliction of duty alone, but the dereliction of duty of the entire reconnaissance team. As the head of the armed group, I also have the responsibility."

As he said that, Liang Aiguo's tone eased again: "Now is not the time to hold people accountable, how should I deal with this matter? Is it all here? Let's start the meeting now!"

All the team leaders of the armed group took their seats. Liang Aiguo looked at the Baiyue slaves who were fleeing in the mountains and forests on the screen, as well as the Chu army who were wearing armor, riding war horses, chasing towards the Baiyue slaves' escape, and said: "As long as these Baiyue people are not stupid, they will be very likely to escape after entering the mountains. By then, the possibility of our discovery will become even greater!"

One person spoke: "Team leader, since this is the case, can we block these Baiyue people on the road? Eliminate them before they find us."

"No, even if we kill these Baiyue slaves, we may still be discovered." One person retorted.

"Because we kill them, it means that a group of Baiyue people disappeared. If there are fewer people, they will be discovered by other Baiyue people and Chu army. If other Baiyue people and Chu army also come, will we continue to kill the people who are following us?

To put it bluntly, as long as these Baiyue slaves run towards us, the possibility of our discovery has become very high. If we want to be completely impossible to be discovered, we can only pray that they will not run towards us."

"Old Li is right. From the moment Baiyue slaves fled to the mountains, we had the possibility of being discovered."

Liang Aiguo said in a speech: "However, what we should consider now is not whether we will be discovered, but what measures should we take. Of course, if we can not be discovered, that is the best."

"We need to recognize the primary and secondary issues."

"First of all, our most important task is to protect the valley camp, and the camp must not be missed; secondly, we are to divide our strength to deal with these Baiyue people and Chu troops.

So, my opinion is: Strengthen the defense of the camp and ensure the safety of the camp. As for the Baiyue people and the Chu army, let’s wait and see how the situation will change before making a decision. What do you think?”

After Liang Aiguo finished speaking, Yang Xiao took the lead in expressing his opinion: "I agree with the team leader. Whether it is exposed or not, our primary task is to protect the camp, and everything else is second. Strengthening camp defense work must be carried out immediately and cannot be delayed."

Yang Xiao expressed his opinion, and the others also expressed their opinions one by one: "I also agree with the team leader. Baiyue people and Chu Jun, observe first. If you have the opportunity, you can take action before taking action."

Seeing that everyone agreed with their opinions, Liang Aiguodao said: "Since they all agreed with my opinions, I now issue an order: Yang Xiao, Zhao Gang, Li Gan, Cheng Yang, Luo He, you will each lead a team to inspect the military arrangements around the valley, and be careful.

Sun Guorong and Zhou Weimin, you two each took a group to inform the camp owners to keep them alert and be responsible for maintaining order in the camp.

As for the others, I will sit in the command room with me here.”

"Yes, team leader!"
