General Sun's heart was dark, and he said: "They should be given a time limit, if they don't come to ransom people for a day, they will be charged one or two silver per day for food!" ”

Xu Zhilan nodded in agreement, and was about to turn back to the tent when Alice's voice came: "King Yangtao, please stay!" ”

General Sun saw Xu Zhilan's inquiring gaze, and hurriedly said, "Prince Ellen and Princess Alice heard that King Yangtao had won a great victory, and they wanted to come to see King Yangtao's generals. The last general felt that there was no danger in this trip, so he allowed the prince and princess to come and ask for the prince's forgiveness. ”

"It's dangerous here, General Sun, send His Royal Highness Prince Elendi and Princess Alice back to Lingyun Pass to rest. What's the matter, wait for this king to return to Lingyun Pass. After Xu Zhilan finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the account.

"King Yangtao is slow, this king has something important to discuss with King Yangtao." Eleendi spoke.

"The king's concubine is seriously injured, and the life and death of the chief manager around him is uncertain, if there is anything, let's talk about it when I return to Lingyun Pass." Xu Zhilan refused.

"Concubine Chu and Chief Keqing must have been treated by the imperial doctor, and King Yangtao can't help, instead of waiting, why don't you listen to what this king wants to say first?"

Xu Zhilan was very upset, but he didn't want to embarrass Alendi too much, and said, "I wonder what important matters Prince Alendi wants to discuss with this king?" Now that the Gilgrad Ministry has been defeated by my heroic Dahua soldiers, and has indirectly solved the danger of your Western Regions, it seems that there is nothing else to talk about between us, right? ”

"Thank you King Yangtao for today's action! If King Yangtao can join forces with my Gui Wangfu to eliminate the remnants of the Gilgrad army that invaded my Western Regions, my Gui Wangfu will be even more grateful to King Yangtao, and in the future, as long as King Yangtao can use the place, send someone to send a message over! ”

"How many of them are there?" Xu Zhilan asked rhetorically.

"It is estimated that there are more than 10,000 people, their supply line is long, and the people of Guiwangfu are in a hurry, so they will harm the people, so that we dare not easily force the other party too tightly, and the iron horse is slightly better than my horse in the Western Regions, and it is almost a distance to catch up; If King Yangtao sends troops to block their retreat, my Gui Wangfu will send troops to the Western Regions to drive them away, forming a situation of encirclement and flanking, and I will definitely be able to annihilate them in one fell swoop! ”

"As the saying goes, if you hurt a thousand enemies, you will lose eight hundred, and the remnants of Gilgrad will soon be defeated if they lack supplies, so since the danger of King Gui's Mansion has been solved, why bother ......"

Before Xu Zhilan's words were finished, Alice said, "Doesn't King Yangtao want to make any more great contributions and consolidate King Yangtao's prestige in Dahua?" Grab more prisoners for more silver? ”

There was silence for a while, thinking that Chu Yanqing and Lan Keqing needed enough time to recuperate, and Luo Yuzhu was driven into the Western Regions as far as possible, Xu Zhilan was ruthless and said, "Princess Alice is reasonable, wait for this king to invite Commander Cheng to come over and discuss." ”

General Sun saw that Xu Zhilan was about to form an alliance with King Gui's Mansion, and hurriedly said: "King Yangtao, we have won a great victory, and if we want to capture this part of the remnants of Gilgrad, the last general can lead his troops to guard here, and there is no need to send troops to travel hundreds of miles to encircle it!" ”

Xu Zhilan's face darkened, and he said, "General Sun doesn't need to say much, Chuan Cheng is the commander!" ”

The official level crushed people to death, General Sun's face was depressed, and the Ellen brothers and sisters were secretly happy in their hearts.

Commander Cheng learned that Xu Zhilan was going to war, and he rushed over excitedly.

After discussion, King Gui sent 20,000 troops, Xu Zhilan also transferred 20,000 troops, 40,000 to fight 10,000, it should be about the same. However, sending troops from Lingyun Pass to the Western Regions Pass is a long journey, and the soldiers are tired and will undoubtedly lose the battle, which is obviously not possible, so Xu Zhilan plans to send 3,000 Shengli Forbidden Army led by Cheng Commander to set off from Lingyun Pass, and at the same time issue a military order for General Peng of the Western Regions Pass to send 20,000 troops to participate in the battle.

Without further ado, the Alice siblings took their relatives and went first to inform King Gui to do a good job of cooperating.

Before Commander Cheng set off, he was summoned aside by Xu Zhilan to teach him face-to-face.

"Commander Cheng, this mission is not to fight the remnants of Gilgrad, you send your cronies to ride fast horses with the tokens of this king to ask Deputy General Mo who was transferred from the forbidden army to the Western Regions Pass, and ask him to transfer 40,000 troops to surround the remnants of Gilgrad, but don't really fight, just force these iron cavalry soldiers into the Western Regions. You took 3,000 forbidden troops to escort dozens of Jingyang soldiers who were frightened by this king to the border pass of the Western Regions slowly, preaching the battle of Lingyun Pass along the way, causing psychological pressure on the remnants of Gilgrad. ”

Commander Cheng asked: "Does the prince mean to let the cavalry of Gilgrad go to fight the Western Regions, and we will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?" So that the Jingyang Kingdom will completely offend the Western Regions, and the Jingyang Kingdom will not be able to start a war on both sides? Or will I join forces with the Western Regions to attack Jingyang Kingdom in the future? ”

"Commander Cheng, the stability of the country is more important than opening up the territory, now it is not appropriate for Dahua to start a war, let the surrounding countries mess up first, and then talk about it, and when they are almost done, we will come forward to clean up the mess. From now on, Lingyun will close the customs for half a year, and let the Western Regions customs also close for half a year! ”

After Xu Zhilan finished the order, he waited for more than an hour, although Chu Yanqing's face was pale, his life was saved.

With the help of Gonggong Guo, Lan Keqing recovered better, and when the comfortable carriage arranged by General Sun came over, everyone slowly returned to the General's Mansion.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Xu Zhilan accompanied Chu Yan, who had fallen asleep due to blood loss, for a long time, and then came to Lan Keqing's room.

"Keqing, we are friends of life and death, and if you are seriously injured, you don't have to follow those red tapes!" Xu Zhilan stretched out his hand and pressed it as he spoke, signaling that Lan Keqing did not have to salute.

"The prince showed his might today, and even Keqing heard about it. Presumably, the prince has been exposed......"

Xu Zhilan interrupted Lan Keqing's words and said, "Don't worry, the person who was killed by this king by the tent has been buried in time; On the battlefield, there were people who were killed by the king, and there were also people who were killed by random arrows, and when they cleaned the battlefield, they were all thrown into a large pit and buried together, and no one would have deliberately checked the injuries of the deceased. From now on, Lingyun will be closed for half a year, and anyone who enters and leaves the city will be killed! You and Concubine Chu are sick, no matter what, you have to recuperate for more than a month, with this king here, no one dares to enter and exit Lingyun Pass without permission, presumably after a month, the corpse under the loess has already rotted, and it should be fine. ”

"Princess Mei said that it may be dangerous for the prince to stay in Dahua......"

Touching Lan Keqing's head, Xu Zhilan said: "The Orchid Heart Sutra is suitable for one-to-many, real one-on-one killing, this king may not be Guo Gonggong's opponent, but fortunately, today this king is showing his might on the battlefield, showing the strength of taking the head of people among thousands of troops, and the emperor does not dare to move this king easily." So, we're safe for the time being. What's more, this king has made such a great contribution today, and the news will soon be transmitted back to China, so the emperor wants to move this king, and he has to weigh the people's hearts. ”

Then, Xu Zhilan also said about dealing with Luo Yuzhu, hoping to scare Luo Yuzhu into the depths of the Western Regions, and wait for Lan Keqing and Chu Yanqing to recover their health, even if Luo Yuzhu falls into the hands of Xu Zhiyuan and Emperor Dahua changes hands, it will not affect Xu Zhilan to leave with Lan Keqing and others. After all, there is a world of difference between leaving with two seriously wounded people and fleeing with two healthy people.
