After half a day.
Young Master Liu and his party finally arrived outside the east gate of Gistan City.
"Xu."
"Xu."
Young Master Liu didn't wait for Feng Xing to stop, he smoothly got off his mount and looked up towards the city wall.
Seeing Young Master Liu dismounting, the others also got off their mounts one after another after stopping their good horses.
Liu Mingzhi looked at the dragon flags fluttering in the wind on the city wall and the dragon soldiers wearing dragon armor patrolling back and forth, and nodded with a smile on his face.
Qi Yun, the third princess, the queen, Huyan Yunyao and the other sisters looked at the gate of Gistan City and turned to look at Young Master Liu with surprised expressions.
"Husband, this city in the Great Food Country looks a little too strange."
"It's just that, it looks weirder than the cities in some kingdoms in the Western Regions."
Young Master Liu listened to the slightly surprised tone of the ladies and straightened his clothes with a smile.
"Ladies, every place has its own customs and culture, there is nothing strange about this.
When we see the city of Dashi Kingdom for the first time, we will find it very strange and completely inconsistent with our vision and aesthetics.
Similarly, when their merchants here first arrived at our Dalong, they would also feel strange when they first saw our Dalong's city and houses.
The big dragon and the big food are thousands of miles apart from each other.
It's perfectly normal for each other to not be used to each other's customs. "
"Oh, husband, my sisters will naturally understand what you are saying.
The main thing is that the concubine sisters are really not used to the buildings here. "
"Sister Yun Shu is right, I'm not used to it either."
"Keke, I agree."
Liu Mingzhi turned his eyes and glanced at the beauties around him, and chuckled a few times with a hearty voice.
"Hahaha, ladies, there's nothing you can do if you're not used to it.
We are now in a big food country, so if you are not used to it, you have to get used to it slowly. "
As soon as Mr. Liu finished speaking, he raised his hand to hold the reins of Feng Xing's horse, and with a smile on his face, he took the lead and walked straight to the city gate ahead.
When Qi Yun and the others saw this, they all led their mounts to follow.
When Young Master Liu was still a dozen steps away from the city gate, a soldier wearing a dragon armor came up to him with a chuckle.
"The brothers in front are from our Dalong?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the oncoming soldiers and hugged them happily.
"The military master is right. I just came from our Dalong. I'm polite."
When the guards saw Young Master Liu saluting, they immediately returned the salute.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, I'm afraid it won't be easy from our big dragon to Gistan City."
While the guard was talking, he happily came to Young Master Liu.
When he saw Master Liu's appearance clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank and his body trembled involuntarily.
When Young Master Liu saw the guard's reaction, a faint strange color flashed deep in his eyes.
Then, he sighed with a look full of emotion.
"Oh, I have had enough food and sleep along the way, and the fatigue of traveling and driving. I have been through enough hardships!"
The guard let out a silent sigh, pretended to casually glance at the people behind Young Master Liu, and laughed loudly with a smile on his face.
"Hahaha, there is no way, who made our dragon too far away from the food country!
But then again, in this world, if you want to earn money, how can you not work hard!
You know, every bit of hard work is a bit sweet.
In this world, nothing comes for nothing.
Even if there is, it probably won't be our turn. "
"Hehehe, what the military master said makes sense."
"Brother, although we are fellow villagers meeting fellow villagers and our relationship is very cordial, we still have to abide by the rules.
In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, please show the customs clearance documents issued by the court.
We are all Dalong people, brothers, I won’t embarrass you.
As for you, don’t make things difficult for your brothers. "
"It should, it should."
As Liu Mingzhi spoke, he waved to Liu Song with a faint smile.
"Komatsu."
"yes."
Liu Song nodded slightly and quickly took out the customs clearance documents from his arms and handed them over.
"Master Jun, please."
"you are welcome."
The guard took the customs clearance document from Liu Song's hand and carefully read the contents before handing it back.
"There is no problem with the customs clearance documents, please take them back."
Liu Song took the document and put it in his arms again.
"Thank you very much, Master Jun."
The guard waved his hand indifferently, smiled lightly, and turned his attention to Young Master Liu.
"Brother, may I ask your name?"
Hearing this, Liu Mingzhi chuckled and shook his head.
"Hehehe, my name is not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning.
Brother, we are destined to meet again. "
Seeing that Young Master Liu was unwilling to say his name, the guard hesitated for a moment and could only nodded with a wry smile.
Immediately, he turned slightly sideways and waved to Young Master Liu.
"Okay, brother, please."
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and nodded, gently waving the Wanli Jiangshan engraved jade fan in his hand, and walked straight to the city gate.
"Brother, we are destined to meet again."
After Young Master Liu and his party entered the city gate one after another, the guard scratched his brow and walked towards the city gate with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
"Captain Lin, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
"It's nothing, I just saw the caravan from our Dalong again and suddenly remembered something."
“Okay, you’re fine.
By the way, Lieutenant Lin, did you think that the leader of the caravan that just passed by looked a little familiar? "
Colonel Lin's expression suddenly changed when he heard his brothers' questions.
"What did you say? Say it again."
"Captain, tell me, do you think the leader of the caravan looks familiar to you?"
"Da Shan, you also think he looks familiar?"
"Yes, it looks familiar. It feels like I've seen it before somewhere."
Lieutenant Lin suddenly opened his eyes, raised his hand, grabbed the shoulder of the soldier in front of him, and shook it hard twice.
"Da Shan, think about it carefully, where have you seen him? Who do you think he looks like?"
The soldier turned around and looked at the team that had all entered the city gate, scratching his neck with a tangled look.
"Captain, what about that? I don't dare to say it."
"Oh, feel free to say it."
"Returning to the school captain, I think he looks a bit like our Emperor.
However, how could our Emperor possibly appear here in Gistan City! "
Captain Lin immediately let go of his hands, took off the saber from his waist and stuffed it into the soldier's hands.
"Not always."
After leaving a few words, he hurriedly ran towards the city gate.
After Captain Lin ran into the city, he glanced at Young Master Liu's back and quickened his pace again.
"Commander."
With a shout of "Commander", Young Master Liu's footsteps suddenly stopped.
When Liu Mingzhi heard the shouts coming from behind him, he raised his eyebrows slightly and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Hehehe, hehehe."
After all, I still recognized myself.
Young Master Liu closed the engraved jade fan in his hand, turned around and looked at the captain behind him who was walking towards him quickly.
"Commander."
"Commander."
Colonel Lin ran all the way to Young Master Liu, his expression instantly became excited.
"Commander, it's really you."
"Hehehe, it's me, young master. You finally recognized me."
Seeing Young Master Liu admitting his identity, Colonel Lin immediately knelt down on one knee.
"Lin Yang, the humble captain of the Yunshan Camp of the Huben Army, meets the commander-in-chief.
No, no, no, see Your Majesty, long live my emperor. "
Liu Mingzhi bent down slightly and helped Lin Yang up with a faint smile.
"No courtesy, no more courtesy."
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor."
"Hey, in a foreign country, it's not convenient to call His Majesty the Emperor. Let's continue to call him Marshal."
"Yes, thank you, Marshal."
Young Master Liu raised his hand and patted Lin Yang's shoulder, chuckled and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master, I thought you couldn't recognize me!"
"Commander, in fact, I already recognized you when I first saw your appearance.
However, I was really afraid to confirm your identity at that time.
After all, with your status, no matter what you think, you are unlikely to appear here in Gistan City.
I don't dare to confirm your identity, Commander-in-Chief, so I have no choice but to boldly pretend not to recognize you. "
"Hahaha, that's it. Then how can you be sure it's me, the young master?"
"Back to Marshal, as soon as I returned to the gate of the city, my brothers asked me if I thought you looked familiar, Marshal.
Therefore, the humble position immediately confirms your identity.
After all, if just a humble person thinks you look familiar, he may have mistaken you for the wrong person.
However, when your subordinate brothers see you, the commander-in-chief, and feel that you look familiar, then there is definitely nothing wrong with you.
I think back then, all the brothers in humble positions were soldiers under your command, the commander-in-chief.
It is impossible for all of us brothers to mistake your identity.
Marshal, after many years of separation, I finally see you again. "
Liu Mingzhi looked at the excited Lin Yang and nodded happily.
"Good brothers, I didn't want to acknowledge you earlier because I had my own difficulties.
I have just arrived here, so I don’t know what the situation is like in Dashi Country.
Therefore, it is not convenient for me to reveal my identity immediately.
Good brother, you should be able to understand this, right? "
"The humble position understands, the humble position understands."
As Lin Yang spoke, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly glanced at the pedestrians coming and going on the street.
"Commander, I am confused, I should not recognize you in public, thus exposing your identity, Commander.
Commander, please wait a moment. I will immediately mobilize five hundred elite soldiers to protect you, Commander. "
As soon as Lin Yang finished speaking, he turned around and ran towards the city gate.
"Wait a minute."
"Commander?"
Young Master Liu looked around at the pedestrians coming and going on the street. When he saw those pedestrians looking towards him curiously from time to time, he looked at Lin Yang and shook his head angrily.
“You bastard, is there water in your fucking brain?
If you don't send someone to protect me, others will only take a curious look at me.
Once you send someone to protect me, won't you clearly tell the people of these big food countries that my status as a group of people is extraordinary? "
Lin Yang looked embarrassed and suddenly became a little at a loss.
"This! This! This."
Liu Mingzhi chuckled, shook his head, raised his hand and patted Lin Yang's shoulder.
"Okay, don't do this or that. Just do whatever you need to do. Just pretend you haven't seen me."
"Yes, I humbly obey my orders."
"I want to ask you, how many of our dragon's soldiers and horses are there in Gistan City?"
"Come back to the commander, there are three thousand elite soldiers in total."
"Who is the guard?"
"Coming back to the commander-in-chief, it's General Han Ren."
Liu Mingzhi nodded with a clear expression: "So it's him. Is he in the city now?"
"Back to the commander-in-chief, after General Han had breakfast, he led his soldiers to inspect the public sentiment in various large and small cities affiliated with Gistan City.
Until now, he has not returned.
Marshal, do you need to take your humble position and immediately send someone to find General Han and come back to see you? "
Liu Mingzhi was silent for a moment with his brows slightly furrowed, then waved his hand gently.
"Forget it, since Han Ren is not in the city, I will not see him for the time being."
"Hey, I understand the humble position."
"Lin Yang."
"The humble position is here."
"You should go outside the city gate and continue your duty. I am looking for a place to stay first."
"Commander, why don't you humble yourself and take you to the best restaurant in the city to stay?"
Liu Mingzhi looked around at the situation on both sides of the street, smiled and waved.
"No need, this is my first time for this young master to come to Dashi Country. I plan to have a good appreciation of the customs and customs of Dashi Country.
With your armor on you, you will definitely attract attention by following me.
This would cause a lot of inconvenience. "
"Okay, I understand."
"Okay, you go back to duty first. As for the place to rest, I have my own plans."
"Yes, I will obey your orders.
Marshal, then the general will retire first. "
"Alright, go ahead."
"I resign from my humble position."
Young Master Liu was about to rush on his way. He seemed to have thought of something and waved quickly.
"etc."
"I'm in a humble position. Commander, do you have any other orders?"
"Master, please don't tell others about my coming to Dashi Country. Just treat it as if you have never seen me before."
"Commander, where is General Han?"
"same."
"Yes, I humbly obey my orders."
"Well, go ahead."
"I will resign first from my humble position."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Lin Yang's retreating back, smiled lightly and waved to Qi Yun, the Queen, He Shu, Ren Qingrui and the other sisters.
"Ladies, let's keep walking."
"Hey, here we come."
"I'm coming."
Song Qing pulled the reins of the horse in his hand, walked to Young Master Liu's side with a smile on his face, and walked side by side with him.
"Third brother, if you don't let Lin Yang leak the news that we have arrived in the Big Food Country, are you planning to stage a private visit in a foreign country?"
Young Master Liu smiled lightly and glanced at Song Qing with a smile.
"Why, can't it?"
"It's okay, it's okay. As a brother, I'm mainly afraid that my two uncles won't be able to stand the excitement."
“It has been more than four years, almost five years since the army set off for the campaign.
It's time for me, young master, to test the results of the Western Expedition. "(End of chapter)
