Chapter 98 Zhengwu Wan 24
"Lord, the scout came back and reported that the Xianbei people and Wuwan had retreated, and the whole camp was empty," Zhu Ling said eagerly and didn't know what he was worried about.
"Oh?" After listening to Zhu Ling's words, Li Zhong was also surprised, "Come on, go and call Mr. Ju Shu and the generals over to discuss the matter." Li Zhong couldn't think of a reason, so he said to the bodyguard beside him, "Yes, Lord." A bodyguard answered and then turned around and left.
"Let's go to the hall and wait for them," Li Zhong said to Deng Zhan and Zhu Ling, and they nodded.
After a while, Ju Shu and the generals came to the hall and looked at the crowd. Li Zhong told the news Zhu Ling had just learned, and then looked at the crowd with a smile.
"Lord, the last general thought it must be the solemn old man who was afraid of our Youzhou army, so he retreated overnight." Suddenly, a word came from the quiet hall that made people laugh and cry. Everyone looked at it and saw Guan Haizheng looking at Li Zhong with a proud face.
Looking at this living treasure, Li Zhong shook his head helplessly and didn't say anything. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Ju Shu. He lowered his head and meditated for a while. Ju Shu hugged his fist and said, "Lord, I think there may be some conflict between the Xianbei people and Wuwan people, which led to their disintegration." The tone seemed a little hesitant and not Make sure.
Li Zhong looked at him encouragingly, then smiled at him, and then said, "Since we don't know, don't think about it. Anyway, we can't think of it, as long as we guarantee that Lu Longguan is in our hands."
Everyone's eyes lit up and then dimmed. Originally, they were going to fight with the Xianbei people, but they didn't expect the result to be like this. Everyone couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Li Zhong glanced at the crowd, then smiled heroically and said, "You don't need to do this. Now the army has been fighting for nearly three months in a row, and the soldiers are already very tired. In the future, we will definitely eliminate this group of so-called humble people."
Listening to Li Zhong's words, everyone nodded.
"The public and the order, the army will meet in Ji County tomorrow, and send someone else to report the victory to your majesty," Li Zhong said to Ju Shu with a smile. There was joy and sarcasm in the smile, "Yes," Ju Shu hugged his fist and promised.
Li Zhong nodded, and then turned his head to look at Qiu Liju. Qiu Liju was conscious and nodded to Li Zhong.
"Yan Ming" and "Lord", replied Yan Ming with an ugly face.
"You continue to guard Lu Longguan here, and be careful," Li Zhong looked at the ugly face and said with a smile, "The lord, unless the last general dies, Lu Longguan will not be lost," Yan Ming said solemnly, and an iron sword guard soldier who was ordered came to the city gate.
"I am the iron sword guard. The lord's army is about to arrive and open the gate immediately," the iron sword guard shouted under the gate.
"This..." The lieutenant obviously hesitated, "Open the gate quickly." The iron sword guard soldier saw that the captain was silent, so his tone was a little unhappy.
"I was ordered to guard the north gate, and I can open the gate only with your empty words," the captain looked at the man under the gate and said firmly.
"You..." Seeing that the lieutenant didn't open the door, the soldier was also helpless. He took a look at him, then turned the horse's head and ran out.
"Wow, looking at his distant back, the captain exhaled the air heavily. Lord," the soldier came to Li Zhong and shouted with a frustrated expression, "What's wrong?" Li Zhong asked curiously, with a little gossip.
"The captain of the gate said that he would not open the door without seeing the master," the soldier whispered.
"Hahahaha", Li Zhong laughed after listening to his words, which made him a little confused, but Li Zhong did not explain to him and rode to Ji County.
"I'm Li Zhong, open the gate quickly," Li Zhong came under the gate and shouted upward.
The captain thought it was the man just now. He just wanted to scold him. When he looked down, he was scared. It turned out that it was really Li Zhong. "Open the gate quickly." The captain quickly shouted to the officer beside him and hurriedly walked down the city.
"Gugu, Dongdong", the heavy gate finally opened, and the lieutenant came to Li Zhong and said respectfully, "The last general Li Li visited the lord." Well, Li Zhong nodded to him, and then said encouragingly, "You did a good job today. Keep working hard." After that, he bent down and patted Li Li Li on the shoulder, and then ha Ha smiled and ran to the state pastoral mansion.
And not far behind Li Zhong was Deng Zhan with iron sword guards chasing him.
When he came to the state pastoral mansion, Li Zhong jumped off his horse and rushed to look at him regardless of the shouts of the soldiers outside the door, where he still looked like he was ill.
"Madam, the lord is back." In the backyard of the state pastoral mansion, a maid said excitedly to a young woman in a green gauze skirt and wearing a Zhu Feng hairpin. She should not be a woman.
Well, Li Zhong nodded to him with satisfaction, "Jianyi", "Lord", left 3,000 troops and 500 cavalry for Yan Ming, "Yes, Lord", Yan Ming looked at Li Zhong with an grateful face, Lord, the last general will definitely guard Lu Longguan for the Lord, Yan Ming thought in his heart.
"Okay, that's it. Let's go down and prepare first," "Yes," everyone promised.
The next morning, 80,000 troops filed out of the South Gate. The neat team, black armor, and murderous eyes seemed to tell everyone their might, as if they felt their deterrent murder, and even the sun hid behind the clouds.
"General Yan Ming, you need to be careful, and send many scouts, don't live up to my expectations." At the time of parting, Li Zhong looked at Yan Ming with a serious face and said earnestly.
Yan Ming nodded solemnly and patted Yan Ming on the shoulder. Li Zhong turned around and jumped on the horse with the help of Deng Zhan, looked back at Lu Longguan and turned his head and left.
"The last general sends off to the lord," Yan Ming shouted loudly in the back, and Li Zhong nodded without looking back.
80,000 troops went to Wangji County, while the more than 400,000 people of Wuwan went to Chaowen County and Founder County early.
When passing by Wenxian County, Qiu Liju said goodbye to Li Zhong, while Tanton and Nanlou stayed with Li Zhong. This was not only the request of Li Zhong, but also the request of Qiu Liju and the two of them.
About ten days later, Li Zhong saw the city he missed in his dream and exhaled with relief. Li Zhong felt the feeling of going home.
He didn't inform anyone, "Who is coming?" The captain of the gate of Ji County looked at the army with banners and horseshoes like waves in the distance. He was very nervous and quickly asked someone to close the city gate, and sent someone to inform Lu Su and Zhao Fan.
