The figure in white clothes raised his head, with a little surprise in his eyes.
He seemed to be wondering why he failed to severely injure the opponent with almost all his strength in a sneak attack environment.
However, he didn't pay much attention to it. The next moment, strong and blazing Qi surged around his body, making people afraid to approach him.
In addition, there is also a vibrant wood-attribute Qi, which is continuously providing energy for the hot Qi, just like the wind assisting the fire, turning into firewood and completely igniting the hot Qi!
Seeing the majestic power of the person in front of him, even as cruel as Yuan Xionghuan, he couldn't help but frown and shouted angrily: "Tell me, where is the real Gu Beichuan!"
When Li Dongbi heard this, there was a trace of sarcasm on his lips: "I thought you would ask where the food is first."
When Yuan Xionghuan heard this, he was stunned.
yes!
food!
Only now did he remember that the most important purpose of his trip was not Gu Beichuan, but the grain and iron ore he was escorting!
But... what about food!
After seeing the person, Yuan Xionghuan became furious and wanted to rip off the head of the person in front of him and use it as a chamber pot. He did not consider the matter of food at all.
But now, after waking up, I found that there was not even a shadow of food.
That's not just a little bit of food, but enough food to feed hundreds of thousands of troops!
It would take at least a thousand people to escort them, but there are only a thousand people in total here.
"Where's the food? Where did it go?"
Yuan Xionghuan's eyes widened, and his voice was as loud as thunder, like an angry bear: "Say it, and I will leave your whole body intact."
When Li Dongbi heard this, he was full of sarcasm: "The grain has been escorted by the real Gu Beichuan. He took a detour from Jiuyuan back to Qiandu. Counting the time, it should be here now."
When Yuan Xionghuan heard this, he became even more angry: "You are looking for death!"
"It's not certain who will die!" Li Dongbi looked at the scorched marks on his chest and did not hesitate in his words.
Da da da!
Just when the two of them were confronting each other, they were about to rush to kill each other.
Not far away, there was the sound of horse hooves.
"Huang Zhizhong, the captain of the bandit-challenging school, has come to rescue you on the orders of His Highness the Crown Prince!" The visitor had a sword-shaped eyebrow and a square face, holding a two-foot long spear. Although he was nearly middle-aged, he gave people an indescribable sense of solidity, as if he was just Looking at this person, I think he is very reliable.
When Yuan Xionghuan heard this, his brows suddenly raised.
The other party was obviously an enemy, and he had also heard of Huang Zhizhong's name.
If it is a life and death battle, he may not be his opponent.
But if we really want to take action, it won't be a hundred or eighty rounds, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to tell the difference.
In addition, the person in front of him was not an easy character to get along with. In an instant, Yuan Xionghuan actually wanted to quit.
He is reckless, but not stupid.
When faced with an enemy that cannot be beaten, one naturally knows how to run away.
"The green hills remain unchanged and the green waters flow forever. We will meet again later. I will keep your heads on credit for now, and I will come back to collect them later."
Seeing him leaving, Li Dongbi did not stop him.
A man at the pinnacle of Zhenqi, known for his strength and physique, wanted to leave, but a mere thousand people couldn't stop him.
It would be more practical to surround and kill all the eight hundred elites he brought.
Not long after, Huang Zhizhong arrived with his troops, joined forces with Li Dongbi, and together they surrounded and killed the remaining soldiers.
When the remaining soldiers saw that Yuan Xionghuan had fled, they knew that the situation was over. Most of them raised their hands and surrendered, while only a few were still resisting.
But even so, they were all killed in just an instant.
The wind picked up and swept up the blood everywhere.
…
Qiandu, Qiande Hall.
The eyes of all the civil and military officials were focused on His Highness the Crown Prince who stepped forward, as if they were really waiting for what amazing words this man would say.
Should he accept his incompetence, or should he come up with other ways to refute it?
Only Emperor Renxuan seemed calm, but in fact there was a hint of disappointment hidden in his eyes.
He could clearly see the situation on the field. At this point, there was no possibility for the prince to make a comeback.
He also knew the cause and effect, but it was obvious that he had no intention of coming forward to resolve it.
The struggle between princes naturally involves all kinds of extremes. As long as certain bottom lines are not violated, as an emperor, he will naturally not end up.
Therefore, Xiang Baichuan is afraid that he will hold his nose and admit this loss today.
However, just when he sighed and wanted to admit that he was not doing his job well, the high-pitched voice of the eunuch outside the palace came over.
"Gu Beichuan, the great craftsman, brought the grain and grass collected by the prince and asked for an audience."
Wow!
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
There was an uproar in the entire Qiande Hall.
They had known for a long time that the future master craftsman was Gu Beichuan, and it was unusual for him to go to Hajj to see him.
But the bad thing is, he brought the food and grass collected by the prince!
This food and grass can be said to have a subversive effect in today's situation!
The smile on King Yuan's face solidified little by little, then disappeared, and his expression became gloomy.
The helplessness on the prince's face solidified a little bit, and then turned into ecstasy!
Even Emperor Renxuan showed a hint of interest in his eyes.
This guy Gu is still so unpredictable.
It seems that in this drama of seizing the heir, he is on the prince's side.
Yes, after all, he was a civil servant, so he was quite incompatible with King Yuan.
Emperor Renxuan's eyelids were drooped, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking.
"Xuan!"
As Zheng Ying finished speaking, within a moment, Gu Beichuan, who was dressed in military uniform, took off his armor outside the store, and then walked into the hall with his head held high.
He knelt down on the ground and said loudly: "By the order of the prince, I will transport back all the three million kilograms of grain and grass and hundreds of thousands of kilograms of iron ore raised."
"It's parked outside the palace. Your Majesty, please read it."
boom!
As soon as these words came out, there was another uproar in Qiande Hall.
"How many kilograms of grain?" Captain Zhang Lang asked, frowning slightly.
"About three million catties."
It's really three million pounds... He smacked his tongue slightly and denied the idea that he was hallucinating.
What can we do? There are only two million catties. This year it is half more?
Even Emperor Renxuan was a little moved by this number: "Why are there so many more this year?"
"I'm telling you, father, it's all thanks to the hybrid rice brought by the Huainan imperial merchants. After the seeds were planted in various places in the north and south last year, there was a bumper harvest this year, which resulted in more than one million kilograms of extra grain."
Emperor Renxuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and his eyes when he looked at Gu Beichuan were full of appreciation.
Others don't know it, but he is very knowledgeable. This hybrid rice was created by Gu Beichuan.
"Okay! Such a large amount of food can be used as military rations."
"I am one step closer to the victory of the Northern Expedition!"
"Your Majesty did a great job!"
The emperor personally praised it, and the matter was settled.
In fact, even the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty could not find a single typo.
The extra one million kilograms of grain is enough to stop everyone’s mouths!
Including King Yuan who was very proud of having recruited 70,000 soldiers!
Today, a good show was put on in the Qiande Hall. The main character on the stage was changed from Prince Yuan to the Crown Prince. It was really disappointing and unexpected.
