Luo Zhang, who was sitting aside, listened to the complaints of several veterans and felt a little depressed. He couldn't help but said: "My lords, why are you doing this? We encountered a snowstorm. The Turkic King and others also encountered a snowstorm. They will not do it either." How much better than us, you must know that there are not a few Turkic cavalry who were scattered by us in the Turkic camp. No matter how powerful the Turkic king is, it is impossible to gather these Turkic cavalry together in such a short time!"
"I encountered seven or eight groups of Turkic cavalry in the past two days. It can be seen that the Turkic King's losses were much heavier than ours. Even if he returns to the Turkic King's City, it will be useless. We will have to wait for some time to recuperate before we can regroup. Trick the Yellow Dragon, kill them in their lair, and give him a big surprise. I think the Turkic King will be shocked!"
Luo Zhang's words made everyone's eyes brighten, but when they saw the wind and snow all around them, they all sighed again.
Luo Zhang didn't explain that much, let alone tell them that the igloo had been built. No matter how much he explained, it was better to see it with his own eyes.
In Luo Zhang's opinion, as long as he can escape the snowstorm in the igloo, it will not be a fantasy to kill the Turkic King City!
Just as everyone was talking, horse legs were boiled to pieces and brought up.
In those big pots, Luo Zhang asked the soldiers to put more salt and pepper, firstly to supplement the lack of salt in the bodies of the soldiers, and also to keep them away from the cold!
Seeing everyone enjoying their meal, Luo Zhang nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the situation was not bad.
In Dingxiang City, Li Jing was walking back and forth in the city lord's palace. He had been walking for more than an hour, and his brows still didn't relax. It was obvious that he had worries that he couldn't solve.
At this time, a guard walked in outside the door. Li Jing hurriedly raised his head and asked the guard: "Is there any news?"
The guard shook his head and said: "The soldiers who were sent out were driven back by the heavy snow before they had gone very far. The wind and snow were so heavy that we couldn't go far at all!"
"You idiot, you loser, can't you handle this little snow? I don't care what method you use, you must contact Li Ji. I want to know if Luo Zhang and the others are safe, go quickly!!!" Li Jing rushed to the guards. roared!
The guard did not dare to say anything, so he bowed and left, and went down to deliver the order.
In Chang'an, the imperial palace, in the imperial study room, Li Shimin was sitting on the imperial chair, holding a memorial in his hand and frowning.
Eunuch Huang stood on the side, silent, and the maids and guards in the royal study were kicked out. Obviously, Li Shimin was not in a good mood.
"What does Li Jing do for a living? Even now I can't find Luo Zhang and the others. Didn't he tell me that it's foolproof? Is this called foolproof?" Li Shimin said angrily.
"Your Majesty, the wind and snow in the north are so heavy that it is normal for Mr. Li to be unable to find him. When the snow stops, there may be news. With Luo Zhang's ability, nothing will happen to him!" Eunuch Huang consoled him. .
"I don't know if his igloo is useful. If it's useless..." Li Shimin did not continue, but the meaning was self-evident. If it was useless, this Northern Expedition would probably end in vain.
Although they had achieved a lot of results in the previous battles, and even defeated the Turkic King and fled, he failed to catch the Turkic King and did not destroy him. After the heavy snow passed, the Turkic King rested for more than half a year, and there was still no peace in the north, and the Turkic King was still there. Troops will be sent to harass him, which will affect all his plans.
After hearing this, Eunuch Huang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, when did Luo Zhang deceive your Majesty? He said that the igloo can withstand the wind and snow in the north, so it must be feasible. Didn't Mr. Li say in his letter that Li Ji was in Luo Zhang's house? The professor has already built the igloo, and he said it is very effective, so it will be no problem to withstand the wind and snow! Your Majesty, you don’t have to worry too much!”
"You are right. Luo Zhang has never disappointed me. He said that the igloo was useful, so it was definitely not without purpose. I will just wait for his good news!" Li Shimin concluded the memorial and did not think about these things again. .
Li Shimin may not think about it, but Li Ji, who is in the ice and snow in the north, cannot think about it. At this time, he is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
It has been two days, and it is about to be the third day, but there is no news from Luo Zhang, let alone Luo Zhang, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde and others also have no news. The wind and snow in the sky are so heavy, if he hadn't Even with the igloo, it was difficult to resist the biting ice and snow. Now that Luo Zhang and the others were in the ice and snow, one could imagine what would happen, so he couldn't help but not be anxious.
Unlike Li Ji who was extremely anxious, in an igloo, Sun Simiao and Lao Du were eating the hot pot invented by Luo Zhang. There was a pot hanging in the middle of their igloo, and the fiery red soup inside was constantly rolling. The alluring aroma wafts out of the pot and along the hollow above.
Sun Simiao and Lao Duwu each held a bowl and were rinsing slices of meat in the boiling pot with chopsticks.
"The hot pot made by this kid Luo Zhang is really good. It's the best in this world to eat in this weather!" The old poisoner praised while eating the cooked meat slices.
"What's wrong with my grandson? What kind of food he makes is not delicious?" Sun Simiao said with a happy smile.
The old poisonous man rolled his eyes, but did not refute as before. In fact, he couldn't refute it. The food Luo Zhang made was really delicious. This was a fact.
"By the way, there's been no news from that kid for two days, so you're not worried at all?" Old Poison glanced at Sun Simiao and said.
"Worried? What's there to worry about? Don't play tricks on me and eat more meat while you're at it. What you have is simply not enough!" Sun Simiao said. The movements in his hands were no slower than the old poison. Obviously, just now The old poisoner said that to distract Sun Simiao and make him want to eat more meat, but Sun Simiao saw through it at a glance and didn't give him a chance at all.
"Your grandfather is not responsible at all. I am not as dirty as you think. At least I can think of whether something will happen to him, but you are here grabbing meat from me. How unreasonable!" The old poisoner was also unwilling to accept it. Holding down the chopsticks to show weakness.
If Luo Zhang saw this scene, he would probably scold his mother in his heart. How could such a grandpa not worry at all!
This is no wonder to Sun Simiao. In his opinion, a heavy snowfall is nothing more than Luo Zhang's ability. If this heavy snowfall can cause Luo Zhang trouble, it will not be his grandson.
If Luo Zhang knew that Sun Simiao thought so, he wouldn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Just as the two were arguing over who should eat more and who should eat less, bursts of cheers and uproar came from outside the igloo. The shouts even covered the ice and snow. This made the old poisonous man and Sun Simiao's The movement couldn't help but stagnate!
But the next moment, the two of them started fighting over each other again!
