Chapter 870: The Twin Walls of the Empire, Feng Changqing!

Dried and withered leaves were drifting through Suiye, carpeting the ground.

This city was more similar to those in the interior of the Great Tang. The ground was paved with gray bricks and the air was humid. In addition, there were more buildings built in the Tang style lining the roads than in other cities. Most importantly, there were finally people here. The city was not a near–ghost town, and there were even some Hu merchants in the crowd.

But the stench of war here was thicker than in any other place they had passed through.

Clangclang!

The clashing of iron could be heard in the distance, accompanied with shouts of fighting.

Wang Chong frowned and called Zhang Que over. "Zhang Que, what's going on? Why do I hear sounds of battle here?"

With the Anxi Protectorate army away at the front lines and in fierce battle with the Arabs, there shouldn't have been any fighting in the city.

"Reporting to Lord Marquis: it's the bandits in Suiye. When we noticed them, they were setting fires and looting the city. We're currently fighting with them and will probably defeat them soon."

Wang Chong's brow slightly furrowed as he sternly said, "Bandits? Isn't this the territory of the Anxi Protectorate? Isn't Feng Changqing still here? How could bandits show up?"

Gao Xianzhi had left with nearly ninety percent of the Anxi Protectorate army, but ten percent had remained to hold the rear. With these Tang soldiers under the command of one of the Twin Walls of the Empire, Feng Changqing, this sort of situation should not have cropped up.

"It's not clear." Zhang Que shook his head, confusion in his eyes. "Based on what our eagle team can see from the skies, this isn't the only group of bandits in Suiye, and the situation has probably been like this for some time. General Kong Zi-an is currently leading a group of men to chase the bandits out of the city, so all of them should be cleared out quickly."

Wang Chong nodded.
