"It's a bad thing." In the small palace in Hezhou, Ling Su gritted his teeth.
"Master Ling, what is going on?"
"There is a friend... who is being killed by Beiyu. Damn it, how could I be so careless and fall into the trap of the young military advisor Fulong. If he dies, all our great things will come to naught."
After hearing the second half of the sentence, Wu Zhu's expression suddenly became anxious.
"Master Ling, who is this person? Why is he so important?"
"Don't ask anymore." Ling Su rubbed his forehead, "I need to think of a way immediately to rescue him first."
"Isn't Beiyu fighting with the Sha Rong people now? I heard from people that they have already closed the door."
Ling Su didn't answer, only feeling more and more irritated. That damn King Sha Rong, at first glance, seemed to be a man doing great things, but he just entered the Central Plains and fell into a quagmire.
He didn't want to be strangled in his infancy before the big event had even begun.
"Your Majesty, I seem to have seen that there are officials and merchants selling pearls in Hezhou."
"Indeed, there are about 2,000 merchant rudders who, after collecting pearls and selecting them, will be escorted to the inner city and Hebei area. The rich people there like luxury things the most."
"I need to go to the north, so I will pretend to be the Hezhou guard guarding the pearl." Lingsu sighed, "I originally wanted to do it later, but now things are very urgent. Besides, I will go to see Huzhou on the way. old friend."
Wu Zhu frowned for a moment as he listened.
"Master Ling is gone, what should I do in Hezhou?"
"Hold still. As for Li Liu, don't provoke him. Wait until I get back."
"Master Ling, who is it that makes you so panicked?" Wu Zhu was not stupid after all and couldn't help but ask again.
This time, Ling Su had no intention of continuing to hide it. After all, as the participating King of Hezhou, he would have to know sooner or later.
"Hao Lianzhan, King of Sha Rong."
"What!" Wu Zhu looked shocked, "You said before that they were just islanders from the South China Sea... now, another King Sha Rong has arrived."
"It's the cooperation of all parties." Ling Su comforted, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we are very sure about this matter."
Wu Zhu was silent for a moment.
Ling Su narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, don't forget that you and I are already on a ship. If the King of Western Shu knew that your Majesty was secretly communicating with the people on the island, he would definitely raid everyone." Beheaded. O king, since there is no way back, it is better to move forward bravely."
Wu Zhu's face was a little bitter. He understood that Ling Su was not an alarmist. Xu Mu, the king of Western Shu, has always hated the disasters caused by foreigners the most. Those who secretly communicate are almost certain to die.
He regretted a little. If he had known it, he would never see Master Ling again.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I've thought everything about it."
Wu Zhu gritted his teeth, knowing that there was no way back, and nodded heavily.
"Your Majesty, please remember my words. Don't provoke Li Liu in Hezhou. I always feel that this person is a bit unusual."
"Don't worry, Master Ling, I understand all these principles."
Lingsu clasped his fists and quickly left the palace without hesitation. But as soon as he arrived at the palace gate, he saw the person he least wanted to see.
He quickly regained his composure and clasped his fists.
"Commander Li is polite."
"Polite." Li Liu nodded and continued walking forward.
Just when Ling Su breathed a sigh of relief, Li Liu's footsteps suddenly stopped again. He turned around with a puzzled look on his face.
"Commander Li is joking, the general is just a mediocre person, and cannot be judged by Commander Li." Ling Su stopped and frowned. But when he turned around, he became extremely humble again.
"I've really seen it before." Li Liu said with great interest.
"When you entered the palace before, you were by the side of King Hezhou. When King Hezhou came to the post house, he only brought you with him. In the past few days, although you have been avoiding me, I can always see you whenever there is something important. your turn."
Ling Su was shocked.
"I know, I know!" Li Liu laughed, "I don't know, you are the nephew of the King of Hezhou, or the adopted son."
"Commander Li, you guessed it right. My name is Wu Hai. He was born in the Wu family since he was a child. He is the general of my family." Ling Su felt relieved in his chest.
"No wonder. General Wu is in such a hurry, but he has to go on business?"
"Go to the coast and pass on the order for pearl fishing to the king."
"General Wu, please go."
Li Liu turned his back, his smile suddenly faded, and he fell into deep thought.
Behind him, Ling Su also turned around, with a look of violence in his expression, but it disappeared immediately. Right now, he has more important things to do. Could that damned King Sha Rong be the century-old hero? What? This trip to the Central Plains was like a clown on the stage.
If he had gone too late... then the damn King Sha Rong had died in the Central Plains. Major events had not yet been completed, and the islanders were weak in power. It was impossible for them to enter the South China Sea and attack Western Shu.
Saving King Sha Rong is his most urgent task now!
…
In Hezhou, the setting sun is like blood. On the mottled city wall, there are still faint traces of blood that have not dried up.
At this time, Le Qing was holding the knife and scolding her constantly.
Outside Hezhou Pass, I looked up into the distance and saw dense military formations of the Sha Rong people. Although the organization is based on tribes, at this time there are crowds of people and horses neighing and swords swaying, which is quite a bit presumptuous in battle.
"General Le, the Sha Rong people were just pretending. After attacking for two or three rounds today, they retreated again."
"These prairie thieving dogs are all cowards." Le Qing laughed without any fear. In Beiyuli, he is a very special existence. After the death of the veteran Lian Yong, he took over the mantle and guarded the Hezhou Pass for Beiyu and the entire Central Plains.
Of course, he also knows that in today's Central Plains, Beiyu and Xishu were killed in darkness. Inexplicably, Le Qing only felt a little lucky.
His lord probably guessed his temperament and did not let him return to the inner city. Otherwise, he would not know how to fight when he met the Eastern military advisor from Western Shu again on the battlefield.
At the age of twenty, before joining the army, he had seen too many human dogs. But in his thirties, he met a man who amazed and admired him. Although he was lame, he outmaneuvered the crowd and defeated Beidi.
"Kill the prairie dogs!" Le Qing raised his knife and shouted. He suddenly realized that if he had a choice, he would like to be the same person as General Lian after all.
"Don't forget, everyone, the Hezhou City under our feet is made of the flesh and blood of our ancestors and is indestructible!"
Encouraged by Le Qing, the guards at Hezhou Pass suddenly roared and raised their swords, bows and shields, preparing to defend the city and fight fiercely.
