Chapter 383: Recovering the City
Li Le smiled bitterly, feeling that Lu Zhizhou had overestimated himself and Mu Changjin, and it may be that the previous Qianzhou water control incident gave Lu Zhizhou too much hope.
"Lu Zhizhou, you still don't have too much hope, it's the first time for Ah Le and I to face such a thing." Mu Changjin saw the embarrassment on Li Le's face and said instead.
"How can it be, I know the military exploits made by the two of you after leaving Qianzhou, which is very famous, and many people are proud to have seen you." Lu Zhizhou said with a smile, his eyes full of trust in the two.
Having said that, even if Li Le didn't have confidence, he had to give it a try, "Okay, since Lu Zhizhou trusts us so much, you might as well give it a try." ”
"Since Miss Li agreed, then please come with me, and let me talk to the two of you about the current situation in detail." Lu Zhizhou invited the two to the main hall.
The three of them sat down and discussed together.
"I just talked about the general situation, but in fact, I think that the reason why the other ** team is so smooth is nothing more than because there are internal thieves." Lu Zhizhou sighed and said.
Hearing this, Li Le and Mu Changjin glanced at each other and were shocked.
The forced palace in the capital has just ended, it is caused by the internal thief, and Chu Jing has been disposed of, where did the internal thief come from, maybe there is a third-party force here.
"What's the matter with this thief?" Li Le asked his doubts.
Lu Zhizhou seemed to think of something, his face became resentful, and he hammered the table harder, and slowly spoke: "The Zhizhou of Jizhou surrendered with his troops, and it opened the offensive of other countries, which has become the current situation. ”
"Jizhou?" Mu Changjin repeated, knowing the seriousness of the matter, that Jizhou is the most important place, connecting major states and counties.
"That's right, this is also something we didn't expect, and we have reported this matter many times, but it has not been successful, or I saw the two of you today, I dare to tell the truth." Lu Zhizhou said truthfully.
After Jizhou Zhizhou surrendered, Lu Zhizhou and other Zhizhou were surprised when they learned the news, and they also wanted to report to the court for the first time and ask for support.
Without exception, the letters sent out were intercepted, and only they were left to resist stubbornly.
When the news got from the capital, there was too much movement, so they sent Li Le and Mu Changjin over.
And Li Le remembered what he found in Chu Jing's mansion before, which contained letters from Chu Jing and outsiders, including Jizhou Zhizhou.
But Li Le still wondered, how to contact the governor of the state capital, now it seems that Chu Jing is worried that he will fail to force the palace, leaving himself a way out, and there will be a hiding place in the future.
Although Chu Jing is now dead, Li Le is still very angry with the people of Jizhou Zhizhou.
As the governor of a state, it is a position that can be closer to the people, and everything must be done through deep thought.
The governor of Jizhou took the initiative to surrender, which undoubtedly gave the people away, and exposed other states and counties to the enemy.
"It's just too much, I didn't expect this Chu Jingdu to be dead, but I still can't let us live in peace." Li Le said in a deep voice, she still thought that as long as Chu Jing died, everything would be over.
"The Sixth Prince?" Lu Zhizhou only knew that something had happened in the capital, but he didn't know much about the inside story.
"He united with the enemy country to force the palace, and it was because of this that he forced the emperor to death." Mu Changjin explained, with a hint of resentment in his words.
Lu Zhizhou was silent for a moment, he knew about the emperor's death, but he never thought that it was the sixth prince who forced him to die, as a father, it was really endless sorrow to see his son do this.
"It's all in the past, but let's still think about what to do with the things now." Li Le adjusted his mood and said aloud.
The three of them discussed the matter again, and soon came up with an idea.
And it just so happens that now Jizhou Zhizhou is still a loyal minister of Western Chu on the surface, if it weren't for Li Le and them coming in person, I am afraid that they would still be kept in the dark, but they would have taken refuge in other countries to do things for the enemy.
The governor of Jizhou cooperated with other countries and specially asked the imperial court to send reinforcements.
And it just so happened that Li Le and Mu Changjin led the army nearby, and of course, there was news from the capital and sent them there.
"This Jizhou Zhizhou is really cheeky, and he can do this." Lu Zhizhou was very disgusted by this and said loudly.
"He probably deliberately designed to lure us over, which is undoubtedly an instruction from other countries." Mu Changjin frowned and said, internal and external troubles are often the root cause of serious wars.
"Then we might as well do it." Li Le thought about it and said aloud.
Since Jizhou Zhizhou can cooperate with other countries, they can pretend not to know, and let Jizhou Zhizhou lift a stone to shoot himself in the foot.
The affairs of Jizhou were in a hurry, and Li Le and Mu Changjin could tell the importance of the matter, and decided to put aside other states and counties for the time being, and went to Jizhou first.
But now that the two of them have arrived in Qianzhou, it is impossible to leave like this, and before they go, the two led troops to recover the towns that were taken away from Qianzhou.
The armies of other countries just took advantage of the turbulent situation in Western Chu to make a few troubles, but in the face of the real army, they couldn't resist at all.
Lu Zhizhou has been following the two of them closely and dedicating his weak combat effectiveness.
Before leaving, Mu Changjin also quipped: "Lu Zhizhou, you better not go, maybe you still need the two of us to protect you." ”
"No, no matter what you say, this Qianzhou is under my care, so naturally you have to contribute." Lu Zhizhou said with a serious expression.
Mu Changjin wanted to say something, but Li Le hurriedly pulled him and signaled him to stop making trouble.
When it came time to recover the last town, the enemy general who led the troops was extremely resentful, and watched his hard work be ruined, and rushed towards Li Le under the cover of several soldiers.
The previous recovery was too smooth, and Li Le had no worries at all, thinking that there would be no exceptions this time.
But who knew that the general was desperate to hurt Li Le, so he took advantage of her inattention and brandished a long sword to stab at Li Le.
Lu Zhizhou noticed it in time and stepped forward to help block it, and at this time, Mu Changjin came and raised his knife.
"Lu Zhizhou, how are you, are you okay, I'll treat you." Li Le said nervously, he didn't expect Lu Zhizhou to be willing to block the sword for himself.
"I'm fine, but you and the little marquis are the most important, don't get hurt." Lu Zhizhou said with a smile.
I never thought that Lu Zhizhou was so aware of the righteousness, Li Le used the medicine he carried with him to treat Lu Zhizhou's wounds, but fortunately, Mu Changjin came in time to hurt the vital point.
The successful recovery of the last city in Qianzhou was inspiring.
Before leaving, the people spontaneously came to see them off.
There were a few people who had befriended Li Le when he came to control the water, and when they saw Li Le coming again for the people's affairs, they thanked him one after another.
"Miss Li, our whole family wants to thank you, the flood made our youngest son get the epidemic before, thanks to you I was fortunate to recover, and now the man is killed, and you are also revenge."
"yes, we're in a similar situation, and we're all thanking you."
Hearing these words, Li Le only felt sad, they people lived in dire straits, and they only knew that they were grateful, but in fact, they were betrayed by people they trusted on the surface.
"I know everyone's feelings, and please rest assured, I and the little marquis came here this time just for the border matter, and I will do my best to help you do it." Li Le said aloud.
"Okay." Everyone responded in unison.
Lu Zhizhou was injured in order to save Li Le, and Li Le did not forget Lu Zhizhou, mentioning, "Lu Zhizhou is now injured because he saved me, you must consciously help Qianzhou restore order." ”
"Don't worry, we will." I don't know who took the lead and shouted first, and the rest of the people followed suit.
"Yes, Lu Zhizhou has done so much for us, so naturally he is cooperating, Miss Li, you can leave with peace of mind and go to rescue other cities."
"When you return again, you must see a different Qianzhou." More people said boldly, full of pride.
Since the last time Li Le and Mu Changjin gave Lu Zhizhou the position, he has been doing the work of Qianzhou diligently, taking care of the people as much as possible, and no one is not grateful.
Even if something happened in Qianzhou this time, it was Lu Zhizhou who took the lead in leading the troops to resist, so as to prevent more people from dying in the war.
Looking at their people, Li Le was very satisfied, and knew that he had not mistaken the person at the beginning, so he said goodbye again and again, and left with Mu Changjin with the soldiers.
Mu Changjin and Li Lebing have a lot of generals, and they are good at scheming, and other countries come to take away the city, but they fight with brute force, and there is no skill at all.
After these soldiers of other countries entered the city, they burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil.
Along the way, Li Le has seen a lot of tragic situations in the world, and he is extremely hateful.
"Kill me, no soldier from another country can stay." Li Le commanded.
With the previous battle in Qianzhou, the morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted, and the desire to protect the people was aroused.
The soldiers of other countries could not resist, and begged for mercy one after another, so they could only return the city, planted the banner belonging to Xichu, and liberated the people who were detained.
The people in the city rejoiced, but they didn't expect that the capital would be able to play such a role as soon as they sent people over.
"Thanks to Miss Li and Little Marquis, my family is finally saved." A woman was crying on the side of the road with her child in her arms.
"Our home has finally been reclaimed, and we don't have to be ruled anymore." The people shouted.
Looking at this scene in front of her, Li Le also felt relieved, she did her duty, that is, to help these people get back what belonged to them.
Mu Changjin saw Li Le's expression and smiled.
