Chapter 944 Someone is hiding the news

Although Liuyun County is not a megacity, compared to Qingyuan County, the city walls there are higher, the city defense facilities are more complete, and even the garrison there is more powerful.

However, now that Wu Fan heard that Liuyun County was broken, he was naturally shocked.

Peng Jun, with tears on his face, told Wu Fan what happened after he left Liuyun County.

At that time, Wu Fan and others were eager to get on the road, and left Liuyun County the next day. At that time, everyone, including Wu Fan, Peng Jun and others, did not think much, just thinking that the demon army would choose to leave after suffering heavy losses in Liuyun County. Everyone in Liuyun County even held a celebration banquet at noon the next day. Being able to block the attack of the demon army and let them return in defeat is not something that everyone can do.

However, just when everyone in Liuyun County was celebrating the victory, the demon army that was supposed to leave suddenly turned around and came back, catching the Liuyun County defenders off guard. The city gate was easily breached. When the high-level officials of Liuyun County learned the news and hurriedly ended the celebration banquet and rushed over, the soldiers of the demon army had already started a massacre in Liuyun County.

Everyone in Liuyun County once again experienced the strength of the demon army and their cruelty and bloodthirstiness. Wherever the demon army passed, there was no survivor. The city was in complete chaos.

As the captain of the anti-insult school, Peng Jun tried his best to organize the defeated army to resist, but it was all in vain. Facing the strong and bloodthirsty demon warriors, the defenders of Liuyun County completely collapsed and had no courage to resist. The only thought in their minds was to escape and stay away from these devil-like demon warriors.

Peng Jun did not give up and led his soldiers to fight against the demon warriors. However, they were outnumbered and were soon defeated. He was seriously injured and was saved by the desperate protection of his soldiers.

At that time, the entire Liuyun County was completely in chaos. When Peng Jun and his men left the city, they were soon dispersed by the crowd. Peng Jun lost contact with his soldiers. He left Liuyun County with the fleeing crowd and then followed the refugees to Qingyuan County.

"Liuyun County was broken, and we have an unshirkable responsibility. I feel ashamed of the people in the city. I am sorry for them." Peng Jun said with a face full of self-blame.

As the defender of Qingyuan County, Peng Jun did have the responsibility to defend the city. Although Peng Jun had dissuaded the county magistrate from holding a celebration banquet when he proposed to hold a celebration banquet, it did not work. Civil officials and military generals were not in harmony, and the county magistrate of Liuyun County was higher than Peng Jun. How could he listen to Peng Jun?

It was precisely because of this negligence that Liuyun County was destroyed. From the moment he escaped from Liuyun County, Peng Jun lived in self-blame. He had thought about committing suicide many times, but the unwillingness in his heart and the hatred for the demon army made him persist. He wanted revenge, for himself and the people in Liuyun County.

"This matter is not your responsibility alone." Wu Fan said. Obviously, Wu Fan also believed that Peng Jun was also responsible, but all the responsibilities could not be borne by Peng Jun alone: ​​"Don't think too much now, take good care of your injuries. Only when you recover well, you may have the opportunity to take revenge. If you are a man, don't complain about yourself. Pick up your weapon and seek revenge on the people of the demon army. That's what you should do."

Peng Jun nodded, his eyes full of determination and hatred.

Afterwards, Wu Fan gave Peng Jun a simple treatment on his wounds, gave him a few pills, and finally asked someone to send Peng Jun to Wu's mansion for recuperation.

Looking at Peng Jun's thin back, Wu Fan could imagine how much he had suffered during this period of time. The journey to Qingyuan County was not short, and he was injured and had nothing to eat, so his life was quite difficult.

"This can be considered a lesson for him." Wu Fan said to himself.

Peng Jun was young, but he was already a lieutenant of the Imperial Guard. He was in his prime, but suddenly suffered such a change. This incident was bound to have a great impact on him. If he survived, he would grow up, but if he couldn't, he might be useless.

However, Wu Fan was still optimistic about him, which was why Wu Fan was willing to help him. However, whether Peng Jun could survive or not depended on himself.

And Wu Fan didn't have the heart to think about Peng Jun anymore, because through Peng Jun's description, Wu Fan realized that perhaps the situation in Yanfeng Country was more corrupt than he thought.

In the past, the demon army was mainly engaged in plundering and rarely attacked cities, because they were not very good at attacking cities. They were more capable of fighting in the wild. Taking the initiative to attack Liuyun County was already a very dangerous signal. If Liuyun County could be attacked, other cities would also be attacked, but Wu Fan didn't know it yet.

In addition, Wu Fan had not heard any news about Liuyun County being breached by the demon army before. Although this was due to the inconvenience of news transmission in this world, there must be more than one reason for this situation. Otherwise, merchants who traveled all over the country would still bring some such news with them.

However, Wu Fan didn't know about this matter before he met Peng Jun. Sun Liang, Tang San and others had not mentioned this matter to Wu Fan before, and obviously they didn't know either. This shows that someone was deliberately concealing this news. This person might be a minister in the court, a general in the army, or even the old emperor!

No matter who it is, this person is very likely to exist, otherwise the news would not be transmitted so slowly. Of course, because there are too many people fleeing from Liuyun County, this news cannot be sealed completely, nor can it be blocked all the time. Sooner or later, this news will spread all over the country. The person behind it must know this situation. Perhaps, he is just buying some time.

"Who is this person?" Wu Fan thought about it carefully, but he had no clue. He was not very familiar with the court of Yanfeng Country. He was a small viscount and could not contact too many big figures.

In addition to guessing who the person behind was, Wu Fan was more worried about the safety of everyone in Qingyuan County.

Under the rampage of the rebels, the surrounding area of ​​Qingyuan County was already in a mess. Hundreds of thousands of people were homeless and gathered outside the county as refugees. If Wu Fan hadn't found a way to get food, the situation here would be even worse.

But now the rebels have not been eliminated, the threat of the demon army has not been eliminated, and the threat of the demon army has quietly appeared again. This is definitely not a good thing for Qingyuan County.
