Chapter 56: The Shadow of the Long Wind
On the way back, Li Yun deliberately asked Hou San to pass the order and let Yu Deshui take out all the inventory, although the Vermilion Bird Army was also about to run out of food, but some expenses could not be saved.
At the same time, along the way, under Li Yun's deliberate encouragement, he also had a good conversation with Xiongshan and Heishi.
In fact, the effect of this time could have been improved, if Li Yun had done something just now to provoke the Huwei army to launch an attack desperately, and then pay great casualties to fight with Lin Quanzhai, then it would definitely be able to completely move these mountain men. But this is not in line with his original plan, and more importantly, Li Yun is unwilling to use the lives of his brothers to curry favor with the Yueshan people.
After returning to the Hidden Dragon Valley, Li Yun announced in public the news that the Huwei Army had finally withdrawn.
"Brothers! After the efforts of us and the brothers of Linquanzhai, those tiger mighty troops finally retreated! ”
"Hooray!"
"Oh......!"
"Great!"
As soon as Li Yun's voice fell on the engineering team and logistics office left behind, a burst of enthusiastic cheers broke out. After all, the shadow of a person's famous tree, it is not a comfortable thing to be targeted by a strong soldier in the world like Huwei Army, and many people have not really slept well these days.
Then Li Yun said to Xiongshan again gratefully: "Brother Xiongshan, you don't know, the officers and soldiers have been chasing us for many days, and we have no peace for a moment!" Now that the officers and soldiers have finally retired, we can finally sleep peacefully! ”
Xiongshan also looked happy, and returned proudly: "Leader Li Yun, you don't need to say more, you saved Su Lu's life and is my benefactor of Xiongshan!" Even if I don't have Arui's orders, I'll be here to help! ”
"Good brother! Righteous enough! Li Yun patted Xiongshan on the shoulder, looking full of admiration.
And what can a group of rough old men do when they get together? It's nothing more than drinking wine, eating meat, bragging, and fighting, but the meat is enough for a lot of prey in Canglan Mountain, plus the ten deer sent by Flying Pig before, so there is no shortage. It's just that the wine is gone, and there are only a few jars of wine in the supplies seized at the beginning, and Li Yun himself is reluctant to drink it, all of which is left for the wounded to be disinfected.
But there is no banquet without wine, how can you get along with these rough men if you don't drink, in the end, Li Yun can only beg Salo with his face, but fortunately, Salo also gave him a little face, and let the clouded leopard go back to Linquanzhai and move dozens of altars back.
Unlike the elation of the Hidden Dragon Valley, He Congjun and his party were not in such a good mood, this time they suffered such a big loss in chasing the fugitive slaves, but it can be said that they returned in vain. Although Zheng Hui had already ordered in advance to let everyone keep quiet, and this matter was not a glorious thing for the always conceited Huwei Army, I believe that no one would say it. But it is impossible to hide from Wei Yifeng and the third prince, I just hope that the third prince can open up for the sake of the overall situation.
At this time, the Huwei army camp under the mountain, the sound of drum music in the camp tent with long wind and waves was tactful in the ears, and I saw several beautiful singers, writhing enchanting in response to the sound of drum music. And Chang Fenglang was lying on the bed, drinking the wine handed by the maid, while admiring the charming beauty in front of him, his face was full of frivolity and laziness.
"Childe, the dancing girl you ordered has arrived." Just then, Xiao Si led a man with a hood in and said.
And Chang Fenglang couldn't help but be interested when he heard this, he waved his hand to signal the dance music to stop, "You all go out, my son wants to enjoy the dance of the beauty alone." ”
"No."
When the musicians and dancers heard this, they all retreated, and soon there were only Chang Fenglang and the dancing girl left in the big tent.
Just after the musicians and dancers withdrew, the hooded man lifted his hood, but he didn't expect it to be a long storm!
The two long wind waves in the camp tent looked at each other, and couldn't help but feel a little weird, and then saw the face of the long wind wave in the center of the camp change, and he immediately got up and tore off his face, tearing off a mask like human skin, revealing an extremely ordinary face.
"Meet the third son!"
It turns out that those who drink and have fun in the camp tent these days have always been substitutes for the long wind and waves.
"Hmm."
I saw Chang Fenglang nod slightly, then took off his hood and began to change his clothes under the service of the stand-in.
After changing his clothes, Chang Fenglang asked, "Snow Shadow has had any abnormal conditions in the camp these days?" ”
When Xue Ying heard this, he immediately reported: "Back to the third prince, everything is normal in the camp these days and nothing has happened, but He Congjun was accidentally ambushed when he was chasing and suppressing fugitive slaves. ”
Chang Fenglang didn't say anything when he heard this, a group of fugitive slaves couldn't get into his eyes, this time it was just his eldest brother taking the opportunity to belittle him. But why didn't he take this opportunity to get rid of the surveillance and accomplish his big things!
After a while, Changfeng Lang wrote a letter and handed it to Snow Shadow, and instructed him, "Give the letter to Sect Master Ning and let him act according to the plan!" ”
"No!"
After Yukikage got the letter, he didn't dare to delay and set off immediately.
And just after the snow shadow left, Chang Fenglang showed a wicked smile, "Big brother, it is still unknown who will kill the deer!" ”
In order not to arouse suspicion, Changfeng Lang summoned the musician and dancer back to continue drinking and having fun, and did not order the camp to retreat until an hour later.
At the same time, He Congjun also returned to the camp, he carried the captured booty and the head of the thief, and reported the victory to Wei Yifeng in person. However, afterwards, he explained the truth to Wei Yifeng, because he knew that this matter could not be concealed at all, and he only hoped that Wei Yifeng could be lightly punished for the sake of the third son.
In the tent, He Congjun knelt down and glanced at Wei Yifeng uneasily, Wei Yifeng had not said a word after he finished reporting, and this long silence was more like the calm before the storm, so He Congjun's heart was even more uneasy.
It wasn't until a long time later that Wei Yifeng spoke: "Got it, you go down." ”
Hearing that Wei Yifeng actually let him go down, He Congjun couldn't believe his ears, this time he returned in vain and was mentally prepared for any punishment, but he didn't expect Wei Yifeng to forgive him.
Seeing that He Congjun was still staying in place, Wei Yifeng glared at him unhappily and said, "This matter is not allowed to be spread, if it ruins the third prince's big thing, I want your head!" ”
"No!"
He Congjun was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly responded, and after going out, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and even his back was almost soaked.
And after He Congjun went out, Wei Yifeng's face couldn't help but change, He Congjun is a waste! He couldn't even solve a group of fugitive slaves, if it weren't for the big thing of the third son, he would have to engage in military law, and in a fit of anger, he even grabbed the armrest of the seat!
However, although He Congjun was a waste, he still had a bit of a brain, although he did not really exterminate the gang of fugitive slaves, but at least he did not clash with the Yueshan tribe, and he also got back the evidence of the success of the bandits, and did not let this matter become known to everyone. If this incident gave the eldest prince an excuse to attack the third prince, thus ruining the third prince's big thing, then he Wei Yifeng would be to blame! So although Wei Yifeng wanted to kill this waste, he had to endure it, because now was not the time to deal with him.
Although he didn't want to disappoint the third prince, Wei Yifeng still reported the matter to Chang Fenglang, and Chang Fenglang couldn't help but feel a little unhappy after hearing this.
Seeing Chang Fenglang's unhappy expression, Wei Yifeng whispered: "Do you want to send the Spirit Snake Guard to deal with those people!" ”
Chang Fenglang didn't answer, and after a while, he slowly said: "No need, now is the time to employ people, there is no need to waste energy on those fugitive slaves, this matter will end here." ”
"Got it!" Wei Yifeng replied and retreated.
After Wei Yifeng retreated, Chang Fenglang ordered to pull out the village and return to the city, although he was a little displeased, Chang Fenglang did not send people to continue to pursue those fugitive slaves, because those insignificant fugitive slaves never entered his sight, and it was not worth his wasted energy.
In the evening, in a luxurious mansion in Qing'an City, the rockery fish pond is located, and the pavilions and pavilions are carved and painted. I saw that in a pavilion in the middle of the back garden, a beautiful boy was concentrating on stroking the qin, the sound of the piano was melodious and graceful, and at the same time, two maids with excellent posture stood behind him, and an incense burner on the piano case was still emitting curling green smoke.
But the arrival of a falcon shattered the poetry, and a maid was then seen skillfully removing a letter from the falcon's lap, ironing it with an iron and burning it with incense before handing it to the son.
And the boy picked up the letter and took a cursory look at it, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a slightly playful smile, "It seems that my stupid brother is not going well in suppressing bandits!" ”
At this moment, a maid came to him and reported softly: "Young man, Young Master Yun asks to see me." ”
"Please."
"No!"
After a while, under the leadership of the maid, a handsome man with a folding fan came to the pavilion.
