Chapter 6 The Journey

Xiao Zhengrong kept staring at Duan Chong, as if he didn't believe that the person standing in front of him was the real Duan Chong, after all, Duan Chong died at Xiao Ran's hands, and it was already a well-known secret, even Duan Chong himself, and he didn't believe in the fact that he was still alive, but after staring at Duan Chong for a long time, Xiao Zhengrong didn't know what to say? Maybe there are a thousand words hidden in his chest, but at this moment, he can't say a word, he is really a little excited, Duan Zhong looked at Xiao Zhengrong's appearance, and his heart was also full of emotion, after all, this concern can really be seen, and then he thought that what he was going to do would bring great trouble to Xiao Zhengrong and Beiliang, but it made Duan Chong feel extremely guilty in his heart.

This time, Duan Chong came to visit Xiao Zhengrong purely because of his personal feelings, and he didn't say anything to explain, so Duan Chong didn't have any words to explain, Duan Chong directly took out a pot of wine from the "heaven and earth" from his arms, and took out two small wine glasses and said with a smile: "The two of us brothers will catch up tonight, drink wine, and don't say anything else!" As he spoke, he filled the wine glass to Xiao Zhengrong.

Xiao Zhengrong nodded again and again when he heard this, but he picked up the wine glass that Duan Chong had just poured and saluted it, Duan Chong was naturally not polite, and saluted back, this night, the two brothers drank and chatted all night in the camp tent of the army, and when they were halfway drunk, the wine brought by Duan Chong was drunk, Xiao Zhengrong went out of the camp and personally brought a large barrel of liquor in the army to drink, which was really happy, and in the gossip, Duan Chong also more or less revealed some of his own experiences, talking about being saved by the great master of Dongyi. After all, there is nothing confidential and important happening, but there is no need to deliberately hide anything? But Xiao Zhengrong revealed a great depression in his words.

It turned out that in Xiao Zhengrong's view, the Southern Advance War of the Northern Liang was a platform for him to show his strength, after all, this Xiao Zhengrong had limited achievements in the war against the enemy Huns, and it was a war without victory, so Xiao Zhengrong hoped to make contributions in this war and prove himself, there is no doubt that Xiao Zhengrong had been looking forward to the attack on the Northern Liang for a long time, but because of the appearance of Xiao Li, Xiao Zhengrong had to lead a large army to garrison the capital, but Xiao Li's 20,000 horses were less damaged. Naturally, he will not fight head-on with the army of Northern Liang, so this prince Xiao Zhengrong can only guard the city all day and have nothing to do, it is really boring, watching the good news of Jiangnan continue to come, but it is difficult to itch, there is nothing to do, this depression is really difficult to describe, and Duan Chong's understanding of Xiao Zhengrong is naturally able to understand Xiao Zhengrong's mood, so the words are extremely relieved, and with the friendship between Xiao Zhengrong and Xiao Beiping, Xiao Beiping is the new emperor of Southern Liang at the moment, if Xiao Zhengrong leads his troops to attack. Although it is a reasonable thing, there is always something that I can't let go.

After all, for Xiao Zhengrong, there are not many people in this world who can make him complain, and Duan Chong is naturally one of them, after a conversation, the mood will naturally be much better, and after talking all night, seeing that the sky is bright, Duan Chong is about to get up and say goodbye, and when Xiao Zhengrong asked about Duan Chong's future plans, Duan Chong was vague and prevaricated in the past, after all, the next important thing for Duan to do is to get Xiao Ran, and then let the Huns send troops, Xiao Ran would lead the troops to attack, and this kind of behavior naturally couldn't be known to Xiao Zhengrong, so Duan Zhong could only feel sorry for himself.

And after saying goodbye to Xiao Zhengrong, Duan Chong took advantage of the last trace of night to sneak out of the barracks, and then returned to the inn in Yanjing City to rest, and slept for a day, and then woke up at dawn on the second day, and in the next time, Duan Chong arranged all the corresponding matters in Beiliang, and accompanied Miss Su Mei by the way, after all, his wife was not around, and it was also a good thing to have a beautiful woman by his side, of course, since Duan Chong pretended to be forced once, then he naturally had to continue to pretend, Otherwise, how can you appear to be a gentleman? Therefore, although Duan Zhong has been on the surface until he is sanctimonious, he has been slapping his mouth in his heart.

In the past few days in the capital, Duan Chong has carefully walked up and down Yanjing City, wanting to see where there will be traces of Master Li's girl, Duan Chong doesn't know why he went to look for her, maybe there are still some worries in his heart! Maybe he was very unwilling in his heart, but in any case, Duan Chong had already done this, but he didn't find any clues, and this Li Chan'er Xiao Nizi should have been by Master Li's side all these years, Duan Zhengzheng The old guy is not in a hurry, but Duan Chong can't get the news, and it's useless to be in a hurry, and there is only one place left in the palace in this capital Duan Chong has not been found, but there are many masters in the palace, and Duan Chong will be found even if he can sneak in. Although he may not be caught, at least he will be embarrassed, and Duan Zhong still didn't dare to do such a thing in the end.

And after the time reached seven days, it was the time agreed by Duan Chong and Xiao Li, Duan Chong still did not get any useful news in Yanjing City, so he could only give up in the end, and after saying goodbye to Miss Su Mei, he and Zongzi selected a few fast horses in the capital to go out of the city, and waited on the small hill in the northwest suburbs of the city.

And it wasn't until the evening that Xiao Li's figure belatedly appeared in Duan Chong's sight, Xiao Li's figure fell, and Duan Zhong had already greeted him: "Third Highness, time is pressing now, can we go!" ”

Xiao Li nodded: "Naturally, you can!" But he glanced around and saw that there were only two people, Zongzi and Duan Chong, but then said: "Is it only the three of us!" ”

Duan nodded and said: "Yes, after all, for a master like Xiao Ran, a martial arts master doesn't have any meaning, it's just pure death, so there are only two people here who can use it, plus His Royal Highness Xiao Lisan, it's exactly three people!" ”

Xiao Li said lightly: "I'm just by myself, now that everyone is there, let's go!" ”

Duan nodded his head, but asked Zongzi to lead the horse, took down the package on the horse's back, took out a small bag from it and threw it to Xiao Li and said: "There are three bombs in here, when you use it, you only need to use a flint to ignite the lead and then throw it out, this lead will explode when it is burned out, so don't hold it in your hand for a long time!" ”

Xiao Li opened the package when he heard this, but he saw that there were really three small black balls in the package, so he stuffed the package into his arms with a solemn face, turned over on the horse's back, and Duan Zhong and Zongzi did not hesitate, they also jumped on the horse's back, and the three of them did not hesitate, and went straight to the direction of the northwest prairie.

The three people who rushed were originally the world's first-class masters, if it weren't for the coincidence and Duan Chong's special arrangement, these three people came together, I am afraid that it is the Beiliang Palace, and there is no such dense gathering of masters, these three masters alone are enough to match an army of 10,000 people, and on this way, the military strength in Beiliang is already very empty, except for the supply of supplies to the city along the way, there is no trouble at all, only less than eight days, the three of them have come to the northwest border of the Beiliang.

After the three of them arrived at the border, they went directly to the county town of Shuofang County to rest. Although Duan Chong, the county guard of Shuofang County, Lord Zhuquan, knew him, and he would definitely be respectful to Duan Chong when he recognized it this time, but this time Duan Chong did not do a good thing, so he was not disturbed, but just rested at the inn in the county town.

And since the Northern Liang and the Xiongnu signed a trade cooperation agreement, the Huns businessmen are obviously more, and it is extremely easy for the two sides to enter and exit the border, as long as they hold official documents, they can pass unimpeded, and this document is naturally difficult to fall Duan Chong, directly sneaked into the county guard Zhu Quan's mansion and stole the seal and stamped a seal, and after resting in Shuofang County for a night, the next day Duan Zhong and Xiao Li went out of the county to check the documents and entered the grassland.

The Xiongnu stationed about 50,000 troops on the border this time, and they were stationed in the grassland outside Shuofang County for 300 miles, but Duan Chong and Xiao Li spent a day running on horseback for 200 miles, and then stopped to rest, and when the three of them ate some dry food, but found a grassland to rest, Duan Chong then said: "Not far ahead, it is already the place where the Xiongnu army is camped, if this Xiao Ran wants to play a role in deterrence and intimidation, it is bound to stay in this vicinity, just according to our cultivation, must not be able to detect where Xiao Ran is, how can we find out Xiao Li? And it's best to be silent and not let it notice, and the best way to be able to surprise with a cold sword is to be able to raid! ”

Duan Chong didn't have a good way at the moment, and this zongzi, who was Duan Chong's follower, naturally wouldn't have any good suggestions, and Xiao Li was silent for a moment and then said: "This matter is easy to do, I'll go to the Huns' Uwei Shan Yu first, and let him want to press the border of Beiliang into two hundred miles, such a big move will naturally attract Xiao Ran's attention, and he should show up, as long as he shows up, then it's easy to say!" ”

Duan Chong nodded again and again when he heard this, this method that Xiao Li said is definitely a good method, Xiao Li and Uwei Shan Yu have an agreement, as long as Xiao Li goes, this U Wei Shan Yu will naturally send troops, and as long as the troops are sent, then this Xiao Ran will show up, so the next thing is Xiao Li, Duan Zhong and Zongzi.

So Duan Zhong slapped his face: "Then it's settled, and I ask His Royal Highness to go and see Uwei Shan Yu tomorrow!" ”

Xiao Li nodded: "Then if it is against Xiao Li, how should we fight!" ”
