As soon as Zhang Yun's decision came out, the three armies were in an uproar.
Someone boldly asked Zhang Yun, "Third Young Master, are you going to stop attacking the capital?"
The implication is that you are not going to continue the general's great cause and compete for the country?
Zhang Yun nodded, "Today's Northern Hebei Army only has 300,000 troops, while the imperial court has nearly 500,000 troops. Do you think there is a chance of winning if we continue to attack the capital?"
The man stopped talking.
"We can't win." Zhang Yun said, "So, it's better to go back."
Someone asked tentatively: "But what will the Third Young Master do after returning to Longxi County?"
Since the nails buried in the army of the Wei Dynasty and the Nanchu Nangong family have been removed, it is natural that they will not surrender to the enemy.
"Let's go back to Longxi County." Zhang Yun had no intention of revealing it in advance.
Everyone shut up.
The Third Young Master is different from the General. Those who have followed the General for more than ten years know the General's ambitions clearly, but the Third Young Master makes people feel uncertain about his thoughts.
So the army returned to Longxi County along the same route.
On this day, the old protector of the country waited for 100,000 soldiers and horses. At first he thought they were the Northern Hebei Army, but when he saw the flag of Daliang, he couldn't help but wonder. When the spies came to report, they said it was the third and fourth masters who had brought 100,000 troops. Soldiers and horses, come to support.
The old protector was overjoyed, "It's actually them?"
He concluded, "It seems that the crisis in Nanping has been resolved."
He told the people, "Quick, let them come to me."
He hurriedly walked out of the military camp as he spoke. Not far away, Zhou Wei also got the news and joined him. There was obvious joy on his face, "Grandpa, it is the third and fourth brothers who have come to support."
The old Protector nodded, "Yes, it's them."
The grandfather and grandson hurried out to welcome them, and before they had gone far, they saw Zhou Gu and Zhou Che arriving with one hundred thousand soldiers and horses. They saw the old Protector and Zhou Wei, and got off their horses to salute.
"Grandpa, eldest brother." Marching in a hurry, the two of them were covered in dust, but they were both in good spirits.
The old Protector looked at the hundred thousand soldiers and horses, then at his two grandsons, and patted them on the shoulders in turn, "Yes, you came early enough. Did you take a shortcut from Nanping?"
Zhou Gu nodded, "Yes."
The old protector asked: "How to resolve the crisis in Nanping?"
Zhou Gu stretched out his hand and pushed Zhou Che, "Let my third brother tell you that he knows everything about you."
He sniffed his sleeves and said disgustedly: "I want to take a bath."
"You are the only one who loves cleanliness because of your stinky virtues." The old Protector waved his hand to him, "Go away!"
Zhou Gu went immediately.
Zhou Che actually wanted to take a bath. The earthy smell was unbearable for anyone, but seeing his grandfather and eldest brother staring at him, he could only accept his fate and follow them to the military tent, where he talked about how the crisis in Nanping was resolved.
Although he did not experience it personally, he lived in Nanping City for a day and listened to many people talk about how they defeated the Northern Hebei Army and relieved the crisis in Nanping City. What they heard really made him admire and enthusiastic, so when talking about it, it was just like Experienced the same thing personally.
The old Lord Protector nodded repeatedly when he heard this. Zhou Wei opened his eyes wide and was surprised.
After Zhou Che finished speaking, he sighed with admiration, "The fourth brother and Miss Su Qi are so powerful. They used special methods and everyone in Nanping City worked together to win that battle with less."
"How is it that less is used to defeat more? It is setting a precedent." Zhou Wei commented, finding it unbelievable, "There are so many leftovers."
The old Lord Protector stroked his beard and said, "I'm just saying that brat has great potential as long as he gets some experience."
"Yes, Grandpa, you are the most accurate." Zhou Wei was also happy in his heart, "So, it won't be so difficult to counter Zhang Ping's rebellion."
After all, they now have an additional 100,000 soldiers and horses, and Su Rong still has 150,000 soldiers and horses. In terms of soldiers and horses, he is more than Zhang Ping.
"Well, little Zhang Ping probably didn't expect that he would lose to Nanping in the first battle." The old Protector of the Kingdom also felt a little emotional, "You don't need to think about it to know what Zhang Ping's idea was. He wanted to use the Eighteen He used Nanping City to increase his power, but failed to win at the outset. Now it's better, it directly laid the foundation for his defeat. I don't know how he felt when he got the news of Nanping's defeat and the defeat."
Zhou Che said: "Zhang Ping may be furious."
The old Protector laughed loudly, "You deserve it."
After Zhou Gu took a shower, he changed into clean clothes and felt refreshed. When he found the old Protector's tent, he heard Zhou Che praise his two-handed sword. Of course, he didn't praise it to himself. After all, he hadn't seen it with his own eyes. Just relaying the praise he heard.
The more the old Lord Protector listened to Zhou Che's praise, the more regretful he became, "You bastard, your swordsmanship is even better than before. It's just a pity that your brain is damaged and you can't let go of that little girl."
Zhou Gu almost turned away and snorted softly, "Grandpa, you have three grandsons. Do you think you are missing one without me? But Su Rong can't. Without me, she will never know how to love people in her whole life."
The old Protector glared, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
He lacks a grandson, why isn't he missing one? This is the best grandchild ever!
Without Su Rongque, he would never know how to love people, which would really put a dent in his face.
Zhou Gu walked into the camp and saw several people gathered around the charcoal basin, including Su Xingze. He sat down next to him. The two brothers put their hands on his shoulders and smiled happily at him, "Brother, uncle, Let’s get to know each other again, I am Zhou Gu, your sister’s fiancé.”
Su Xingze: "..."
He didn't know what expression to show to Zhou Gu for a moment, so he just looked at him and raised his eyebrows.
Zhou Gu reached into his arms, took out the marriage certificate, and handed it to him to read, "Here, Xiao Qi's handwritten marriage certificate, here you go, take a look. Do you know her handwriting?"
Su Xingze reached out and took it, and when he saw it, it was indeed Su Rong's handwriting, and the writing was indeed a marriage certificate.
He couldn't help but laugh for a moment, "How did you get this marriage certificate out of her hands? You're so capable."
Zhou Gu muttered, "It's not a lie."
He said proudly: "She wrote it to me on her own initiative to express her apology for my forced break-off of the engagement."
Su Xingze looked at him suspiciously, "Really?"
How could his sister, who was so black-hearted and black-blooded, still be apologetic?
"Show me." The old protector stretched out his hand to grab it.
Zhou Gu immediately said: "Grandpa, be careful, don't let me break it."
The old Protector's beard curled up and he snorted coldly. He ignored him and took the marriage document into his hands. He read it for a long time with his presbyopic eyes open and said angrily: "This marriage document is quite decently written."
Zhou Gu proudly said, "Of course."
Zhou Wei and Zhou Che both came close to the old Protector. Zhou Che had not yet read Zhou Gu's marriage certificate. After reading it, the two of them looked at each other and looked at the proud Zhou Gu, thinking to themselves, it seems that they This younger brother will really be the husband of the princess of Nanchu from now on.
The old Protector was heartbroken. His grandson had been completely abducted. He threw the marriage certificate back to Zhou Gu, "You are so beautiful. Don't be happy too early. It's just a marriage certificate. It won't be too late to be happy on the wedding day when you really marry her."
Zhou Gu took the marriage certificate angrily, checked it, and found that it was not broken. He carefully put it away and glared at the old Protector in an annoyed manner.
Happy Children's Day! It’s a new month, my dears, monthly tickets, okay?
