Ning Haitang sent Lin Ye and the others out of Longzhangtai. When they left the city, the soldiers from Kuiziying and Queziying were also waiting by the roadside.
When Lin Ye came out of the city gate on horseback, the soldiers of the two battalions stood in awe.
"The general is mighty!"
The uniform shouts of more than 10,000 soldiers seemed to shatter the wind.
They performed the most standard big jade military salute towards Lin Ye, and everyone's eyes were so firm and warm.
Lin Ye waved to them.
"Congratulations, General!"
When Ning Haitang saw the behavior of the two battalions of soldiers, she said to Lin Ye: "It seems that I can only take care of these soldiers for you temporarily."
Lin Ye said: "They are your soldiers."
Ning Haitang just smiled and did not bother with Lin Yeduo on the issue of the soldiers from the two battalions.
But she knew that once the soldiers chose someone, it would be difficult to change their approval.
She said: "As for the seizure of war profits, I will send someone to send the general's half to Yangzi."
Lin Ye said: "You distribute all these captured materials to Queziying and Kuiziying, and they will repay you."
He said: "You have taught Zina the exercises, that is enough."
Ning Haitang thought for a while and nodded: "Then we will allocate them to these two battalions."
Lin Ye said: "Just say goodbye."
He clasped his fists, and Ning Haitang also clasped his fists.
After leaving the city, Lin Ye's team gradually accelerated, and soon used dust and smoke to throw Long Zhangtai further and further away.
Zinai seemed a little reluctant to give up. She kept looking back, as if she still had many things to say to Ning Haitang.
Lin Ye told her that maybe it wouldn't be long before he could see her again on the battlefield in Guzhu.
If Lin Ye and Ning Haitang's speculations are correct, then the Loufan people will soon retreat to the north.
Zong Zheng Shiquan had won the battle, and there was no need for him to continue to struggle here.
He was not a fool. He knew that he would be surrounded if he entered Lone Bamboo. Even if Tuoba Lie didn't have the ability to kill him, Emperor Jade would not allow him to return to Loufan alive.
He led his troops south and pretended to invade Guzhu. He was just trying to deceive Yun Guhong, the big enemy.
Yun Guhong thinks very highly of himself, but he doesn't know that he has been plotted by Tuoba Lie and Zong Zheng Shiquan from the very beginning.
If Zong Zheng Shiquan retreated, Tuoba Lie would not pursue him at all, and he would not use his troops for unnecessary fighting.
The Loufan people had already decided to retreat, so he went to stop them. The Loufan people fought with all their might, and the losses of the Beiye Army must have been heavy.
Tuoba Lie has more important things to do, his goal is Emperor Jade.
That's why Lin Ye said that he would see Ning Haitang again soon on the battlefield in Guzhu.
If Tuoba Lie, as Lin Ye speculated, detoured to Yunzhou to block the emperor's retreat, Ning Haitang's troops in Longzhangtai would also rush to Yangzi.
As for when this battle will end, and what the outcome will be.
Even if you are as far-sighted as a jade emperor, it is impossible to make a conclusion.
The emperor was not sure that Tuoba Lie would be killed or captured alive in this battle.
As long as Tuoba Lie has the slightest intention to retreat, he may not enter Guzhu, and he will turn to attack Dongbo.
He sent an army to make a detour to support his son's withdrawal from Guzhu, and then captured Dongbo to stand on his own feet.
After all, Dongbo's troops suffered heavy losses in the previous battle with the Loufan people.
If this is the case, the emperor will not immediately mobilize an army to conquer.
In fact, the emperor was happy to see Tuoba Lie occupy Dongbo and ascend the throne in Dongbo and proclaim himself emperor.
It would be a good thing to be able to kill Tuoba Lie. If he couldn't kill Tuoba Lie, forcing Tuoba Lie to become Dayu's new northern barrier would be much stronger than Dongbo.
Because the Loufan people fight against Dongbo, and the Loufan people fight against Tuoba Lie, they are not on the same level.
In the emperor's plan, opponents like Tuoba Lie may not seem to lose, but the emperor is definitely the one who benefits the most.
Regardless of Tuoba Lie's death or defection, it is not a bad thing for Dayu.
Even if Dongbo, a place like this, could support Tuoba Lie's ambition, it couldn't support the expansion of his ambition.
Loufan is in the north, Lone Bamboo has been destroyed by Dayu, and Yunzhou has been replaced by garrison. The small land of Dongbo can no longer support a million troops.
With Tuoba Lie's pride, he can take advantage of the Loufan people, but he will never surrender to the Loufan people.
So in the next few decades, Tuoba Lie wants to conquer Dayu?
It's simply not possible.
The people of Loufan would first try their best to win over him, and even crown him king, give him generous rewards, and give him high honors.
But as long as Tuoba Lie doesn't surrender or accept it, the Loufan people will regard Tuoba Lie as a thorn in their side.
The world's situation has changed again. As for Lin Ye, if this is the case, the suicide of Tuoba Lie may have to be postponed for a few years.
If Tuoba Lie enters Lone Bamboo, it will be Lin Ye's best opportunity for revenge.
On the way back, Lin Ye was still thinking about these things in his mind, and he never stopped for a moment.
At this moment, in Yunzhou City, there was also the same rapid and undercurrent.
At the corner of the street, Chu Danrong was squatting on the side of the street, holding a newly broken willow branch in his hand, ready to play a willow flute.
He changed his appearance, darkened his face, and added a beard. His appearance changed a lot, but his wretched temperament could not be concealed.
He would look up from time to time. If someone came in or out of the small courtyard not far across the way, he would pay more attention.
Lin Ye told the two brothers to return to Yunzhou and keep an eye on him. The two of them felt that they could not betray the trust of the second master.
Chu Danrong pretended to be a hawker, selling some wild products, but they were not birds and beasts, but wood.
For example, crutches, bracelets, chopsticks and the like made of slightly more precious wood.
A man walked over with a toothpick in his mouth. He looked down and saw that the crutch made of Thuja seemed to be good, so he asked.
"How much does this thing cost?"
Chu Danrong raised her head: "Get out of here."
The man was stunned for a moment, then became angry and stepped forward to grab Chu Danrong's collar.
Chu Danrong threw the Thuja crutch to him: "Take it and get out."
The man was stunned again. Was he to be arrested or not to be arrested? Was he to be beaten or not to be beaten?
Chu Danrong said: "If you're in a bad mood, leave as soon as you get the things, or we'll have a fight."
The man picked up his crutch and walked away, cursing as he walked, wondering how he could encounter such a lunatic.
After walking for a while, he turned a corner and Chu Dingcong reached out to stop him.
The man asked: "What do you want to do?!"
Chu Dingcong pointed to the crutch: "Hand over the thing, otherwise your leg will be broken."
The man said angrily: "That was given to me by a hawker. Why did you rob it? Believe it or not, I'm dead."
Chu Dingcong was still used to him, so he reached out and snatched the crutch away, and then punched the city bricks next to him.
The man was stunned for a moment, then turned and walked away.
"you come back."
Chu Dingcong called her to stop.
The man asked: "Anything else? I've given you everything."
Chu Dingcong: "You told me to get out of here."
The man's eyes were wide open, and his face was full of disbelief.
Chu Dingcong smashed another city brick with one punch: "If I ask you to scold me, scold me quickly."
The man carefully cursed in a low voice: "Get out of here?"
Chu Dingcong hummed: "Let's go, it's even now."
The man turned around and ran away, thinking that he was really unlucky today. As soon as he went out, he met two lunatics.
Chu Ding returned to the intersection carrying Yabai's crutch and threw it to Chu Danrong: "Can you - can you fucking do it?"
Chu Danrong: "It's your turn."
Chu Dingcong: "Did you eat the wrong shit?"
Chu Danrong: "Yes, I ate wrongly, so I ate your share."
Just when Chu Ding was about to curse, he saw someone coming out of the small yard. He immediately squatted down and said, "This Thuja crutch looks good, how much does it cost."
Chu Danrong: "Take away the three copper coins."
Chu Dingcong: "You are sick. Are you going to sell this thing for three copper coins?"
Chu Danrong: "Low?"
Chu Dingcong: "Nonsense."
Chu Danrong: "Then you ask again."
Chu Dingcong said: "This thing looks good, how much does it cost?"
Chu Danrong: "One hundred million taels."
Chu Dingcong: "I'm going to talk to you."
While they were whispering to each other, they secretly watched the person who came out get on the carriage and quickly walked away along the street.
Chu Dingcong stood up, holding the crutch and said: "I want this thing, and I will burn it for you with 100 million taels later."
Chu Danrong: "I'm not fucking dead."
Chu Dingcong: "I'll burn it for my father, and you can inherit it from my father."
After speaking, he picked up the crutch and followed the direction of the carriage.
Although the man who got in the car before was wearing a hat and wearing thick clothes, the two of them could still tell that that guy was Ning Weimo.
The second boss asked them to come back and keep an eye on Ning Weimo. Although they didn't know why they had to keep an eye on Ning Weimo, they didn't dare to neglect what the second boss told him.
Because if the second boss fails to handle the tasks assigned to him, the first boss will really beat them both.
It was indeed Ning Weimo who was in the carriage. He quietly left Yangzicheng and returned to Yunzhou according to the order. He was waiting for something to happen.
If this doesn't happen, he can't show up easily.
The matter involved in his appearance or not is... Wanyulou reveals his true face.
Because of Concubine Wan Gui, His Majesty still appears to be more cautious in his attitude towards Wan Yu Tower.
At least until now, Wanyulou has no obvious deviation, so His Majesty cannot directly convict him.
What is complicated about this matter is not whether His Majesty is willing to kill Wan Yulou, but whether or not Concubine Wan Gui is involved.
If the charge of treason in Wanyu Tower is proven, what will Concubine Wan Gui do about this serious crime that implicates the nine clans?
What Your Majesty has to worry about is not only what the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty say, but also what the people of the world say.
Ning Weimo quietly returned to Yunzhou just to resolve this matter.
He actually has a headache. Even if this matter is resolved, he will probably not be able to do well. If it is not resolved, then Concubine Wan Gui will not have a good attitude towards him.
At this moment, in the carriage, Ning Weimo frowned and looked down at a letter handed to him by the person opposite.
This letter is from a secret agent, just sent back from Dongbo.
"I guess by the time the letter is delivered to us, Yun Guhong has already been defeated."
After Ning Weimo finished reading, he sighed again.
"So, if nothing unexpected happens, Tuoba Lie will definitely return to Yunzhou first, and then enter Lone Bamboo from here."
He looked at the person opposite: "How uncomfortable."
The person opposite smiled: "You feel uncomfortable, but it's not me who feels uncomfortable."
The person who spoke was actually the lord of Tianshuiya in Shangyang Palace, Ai Youyou.
He said: "Your Majesty has asked you to use your discretion. Have you thought about this decision?"
Ning Weimo said: "If you don't want to help, don't ask questions, it's none of your business."
Ai Youyou said: "The look of anger and embarrassment is really eye-opening."
He smiled: "Don't forget, the master of the temple is still in Yunzhou. It may not be easy if you beg him. I beg him..."
Ning Weimo: "Look at you, it's just a joke, why do you take it seriously? Although I haven't been in Yunzhou for a long time, I feel like old friends at first sight. I regard you as my best friend in my heart. "
Ai Youyou: "Heh."
Ning Weimo said: "You are a cultivator, and what you practice is tolerance. I am an official, and officials are too thief-minded. If you care about me, it will disturb your cultivation. There is no need."
Ai Youyou: "Haha."
Ning Weimo put on a smile and said, "Aren't we going to see the master of the temple? You will have to say something more for me later."
Ai Youyou: "Hehehe."
Ning Weimo said: "I should still go back to Guzhu in the future. His Majesty said that I am familiar with Guzhu and have already got the hang of it. It's easy to grasp."
Ai Youyou: "So."
Ning Weimo said: "Guzhu is Dayu's new territory, and it will be transformed into a big state soon. So according to the rules, Shangyang Palace will also send people there to be the chief priests. You are also old, it's time I’m going back to Geling to retire, but if I ask Your Majesty for you as a beggar, Your Majesty will probably agree to it.”
Ai Youyou: "I'll join in?"
