Jing Jingruo saw them bowing their heads and saying nothing, so he got off his horse and knelt down next to Lu Zuo in front of Lu Xiuyuan and Qin Fu's horses. Lu Xiuyuan and Qin Fu unanimously cast curious eyes on An Jingruo.
"My daughter An Jingruo has met her two uncles!"
"Female?" Qin Fu asked first, "Are you An Jingruo? Princess Qiongqian of the Han Dynasty, daughter of Uncle Ping Yuan, and my apprentice's wife?"
Jing Jingruo lowered his head, and Lu Zuo quickly agreed: "Exactly!" Then he introduced Lu Xiuyuan and Qin Fu to Jing Jingruo.
"Oops..." Qin Fu smiled and looked at Lu Xiuyuan. The two quickly got off their horses and helped An Jingruo and Lu Zuo up. Lu Xiuyuan and Qin Fu smiled happily: "If Lu Zuo's father knew about this marriage, he would be extremely happy!"
Jing Jingruo smiled slightly, and when he saw Lu Xiuyuan's left arm was stained with blood, he hurriedly asked, "Second uncle, is your left arm injured?"
"It doesn't matter! I was injured by Xi Ruozhanzhuo's hidden arrow just now. Just take out the arrow and it will be fine soon!" Lu Xiuyuan said calmly, not taking the injury to heart at all, "What about retreating?"
"He and General Wang Yan are sitting in Hupanling..."
Gao Jun watched for a long time. Although their uncle and nephew reunited and Shanzhou City was successfully captured, he couldn't be happy. So he said loudly: "Two heroes, now is not the time to reminisce about the past. Let's hurry up and get in." Let’s wait until the city appeases the people!”
Looking at the devastated Shanzhou City, everyone has mixed feelings in their hearts. This war can be said to be a lose-lose situation for both sides. Pang Gu's body was parked in the lobby of the government office in Shanzhou. When Gao Jun, Lu Zuo and others saw Pang Gu's body, they couldn't help covering their faces and crying. An Jing Ruo also hid in the corner and didn't dare to look anymore. However, Yin Ji cried bitterly beside Pang Gu's body and burst into tears.
At this time, his subordinates came in and reported: "Report to the marshal, our army has 60,000 casualties, 50,000 Tibetan dead, and 11,000 surrenders."
Listening to the numbers of surrenders, Gao Jun said angrily: "Humph! In my opinion, all these traitors should be killed."
Qin Fu was also very puzzled and said, "You're right, these thieves have done a lot of evil in Shanzhou these days. They always ride on our heads and dominate us. If we are left, we have to serve them food, and they are so small." In the small city of Shanzhou, I don’t think there are that many prisons. If something happens, it would be bad, so I think we should kill them all to resolve the grudge.”
Lu Xiuyuan glanced at Lu Zuo, who was silent, and shook his head at everyone: "No! It's better to report this matter to the court and let the court make a decision!"
"Bah!" Qin Fu couldn't help spitting, "What kind of bird..."
When Qin Fu was about to scold him, Lu Zuo knew the nature of his third uncle. If he continued to speak openly like this, it would have to reach the ears of the court. At that time, all the painstaking arrangements in front of him would be in vain, so he hurriedly answered. : "Third Uncle..." He signaled to Third Uncle to stop talking.
Gao Yun also understood what was going on, so he smiled and asked Lu Zuo: "Brother, what do you mean..."
"In my opinion, what my second uncle said is right. It is better to report it to the court before making a decision. It would be too unkind to execute all these prisoners. If there is a reputation, then it will not be of any benefit to Yu Xiandi. And if the two countries become enemies because of this, Then the wise brother will be pushed to the forefront. If the two countries have good relations one day, then the wise brother will also be in a dilemma, so it is better to wait for the instructions from the court. "
"But..." Gao Jun sighed, "But there are so many prisoners, and the prisons in Shanzhou City cannot hold so many people. Now our army has suffered heavy casualties. Once the Tibetan army comes back, won't it be a legacy of raising tigers?"
Lu Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Don't worry. Although our Fengji Mountain is small, it is not a problem to imprison two or three thousand people, so we imprisoned those disabled Tibetan soldiers. As for other soldiers, I think they can be divided into batches." Detention, as far as I know, in order to detain the people of Shanzhou and the prisoners of the Han army, Dafan also built many temporary cells and dug out many cellars, why don't we also temporarily requisition them."
Gao Jun nodded, "Yeah! That makes sense. Since this is convenient, then we should do as Senior Lu said. But these people have to be handcuffed and shackled. If they are not enough, let the blacksmith shop make them." So he ordered his men to hurry up. To house the prisoners.
At this time, Wang Yan and Chen Tuizhi also rushed to the government office. Seeing that his adoptive father and master were there, Chen Tuizhi quickly bowed his head and bowed. After greetings, the two of them reported to Gao Yun, "Marshal, the two of us After learning that we had captured Shanzhou City, I immediately followed your order and led the remaining 30,000 troops to Shanzhou City."
"Very good! Wang Yan, go and lead the people to the city to appease the people. The granaries in the city can release half of them to help the victims and post notices to appease the people. Don't make any mistakes. Go quickly!"
After that, Wang Yan had to order him to leave.
At this moment, Lu Xiuyuan seemed to realize something was wrong. He looked around and asked in surprise: "Where is that kid Huo Yan? Why didn't he come?"
Qin Fu smiled and waved his hand, "What can happen to that boy!"
"Didn't he come down from the mountain to meet us?" Lu Xiuyuan was very anxious, "And he also broke through the west city gate. Why is there no news about him? Where is the man?"
"Huo Yan?" Lu Zuo was a little confused, "Who is Huo Yan? When did another Huo Yan come?"
Chen Tuizhi said: "He came up the mountain later. He was too busy a while ago and didn't tell you!"
Qin Fu was not worried at all. When talking about Huo Yan, he talked about it with great enthusiasm, "This guy is really powerful. Last year, when he heard that Gong Renyi, the governor of Qingzhou, was occupying people's farmland and robbing women from two families, he resolutely went to assassinate him alone. Although Gong Renyi did some harm to the people, he ended up living in the world and hiding his name. A few months ago, when he was passing by Fengji Mountain, he was discovered by us and invited up the mountain. Now he can be regarded as a leader on our mountain!"
Lu Xiuyuan glanced at Qin Fu, "You still have time to say this! The most important thing now is to send someone to find him."
"Report..." Tan Mafei ran into the hall and knelt down to report, "Report to the marshal, someone has reported that Huo Qian and others went west to pursue the remaining troops of Xiruozandhuo."
Lu Xiuyuan hurriedly asked the visitor: "Where are they now?"
"We have been chasing him for more than ten miles."
Lu Zuo shook his head at his second uncle Lu Xiuyuan. Lu Xiuyuan understood and said to Tan Ma: "Send someone to chase him quickly and pass on my order to stop chasing the poor bandit. Otherwise, let him raise his head to see you and go quickly." .”
The person who came ran out like a puff of smoke.
The rest of the people in the hall began to worry, Gao Yun said: "Xiruozandhuo has always been very cunning. If he really kills him, it will be difficult for Huo Yan..."
"Hey, don't worry!" Seeing how worried they were, Qin Fu became impatient and said, "I know his abilities. To him, being a general among a million soldiers is like picking out a treasure in a bag!"
Lu Zuo started to worry about another thing at this time. After thinking for a moment, he said: "That's not what we have to worry about now!"
Everyone asked: "What is that?"
