In extraordinary times, this private meeting of the Oriental Palace has become the focus of attention from all walks of life. Fastest update┏┛

As soon as Qin Chong and Liu Zhen'er left, Canaan King Byrne, the infantry commander Salander, and the reserve corps commander Hami and others followed.

These generals have always refused to obey King Ronier of Cézanne, because with the mediation of me, the king of the East who has no mountains and is dedicated to the public, the leadership center of the entire rebel army has been able to unite so far, and the government decrees can be unimpeded.

I'm really worried that after I leave, the discord between the generals will turn into an internal conflict between the Persians, Canaanites, and Semites, which will be a tragedy!

In order to avoid unnecessary suspicion, I asked Brother Langton to close the door, and all topics will be exchanged openly and honestly when the court meeting arrives tomorrow.

Seeing that the big war is imminent, the front and rear are already busy.

In order not to disturb the morale of the army and add unnecessary trouble to my brothers, I decided to leave the city quietly, and not let any outsiders know about it, except for the kings of Cezanne and Canaan.

The six members of the caravan, Shamihan, Gulando, and Brother Langton and I chose to return east, while Qin Chong and Liu Zhen'er were willing to stay in Rome, and everyone said goodbye.

On the second day, King Cézanne's pre-war court meeting was held as scheduled, and before going to the governor's castle, I instructed Doll and Langton to prepare their luggage and saddle their horses out of the city to wait.

After the meeting, Shamihan and I went directly to meet them and set out on the journey back to the east.

Ronier was extremely excited today, and deliberately put on the gorgeous robe of the king of Persia.

Two months earlier, when he had taken control of the city-state of Beroea, the king of Cézanne had instructed me to send to Phiruzabad, the capital of Sassanid Persia.

According to the style of the court clothes of the Persian emperor, dozens of sets of spring, summer, autumn and winter robes were customized, and they were delivered to King Cézanne's bedroom ten days ago by a long-distance fast horse.

In the eyes of those of us Orientals who are accustomed to seeing gold silk silk, the costumes of the Persian nobility are luxurious, vulgar, cumbersome and cumbersome.

But it is a symbol of power and status, representing the etiquette of the royal family and the fashion of a country, which cannot be abandoned.

There was only one topic on the agenda of the entire court meeting, that is, the attack on Antioch, as well as the specific tasks of each legion, and the coordination and cooperation between various groups of men.

Qin Chong and Liu Zhen'er's First Cavalry Corps was formed by the integration of the original three light armored cavalry corps, with a total of 10,000 people.

As the vanguard of the left flank, he was responsible for meeting the Roman expeditionary corps from Egypt to the north, cutting off its land connection with the city-state of Antioch, and creating the conditions for the main infantry led by Bourne and Salander to storm the city of Antioch.

The two generals bowed down and took the talisman from King Cézanne's hand, and could not bear to look at me directly, so they walked out of the castle with their heads held high.

A vicious battle awaits these two old fellows, and my choice to return at this time will definitely hurt them.

How can there be no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, and if you can't give it up, you can only bless them silently in the bottom of your heart.

According to the original plan, Ronier personally went out as the commander of the three armies, while I sat in Beroeia, coordinating the money, food, baggage, wounded care, and training of the reserve soldiers.

In this way, in the event of the failure of the western expedition in the future, our division will have a large rear that can be buffered.

Now I am anxious to return to the east, but I must also start and finish well, and make a steady handover in the personnel arrangement, which can be regarded as the last explanation to these brothers and sisters who were in trouble on Flying Fish Reef and Dongfang Island back then.

Therefore, after the distribution of the talismans and arrows of the various military horses was completed, I deliberately left the commander of the garrison, Hami, and the king of Cézanne, Ronier, saying that they had important matters to discuss.

"Lord of the East, the Great War is coming, do you want to escape? Ha ha! ”

Looking at the jade seal of the king of the East and the bronze medal of the lion talisman that I presented, Ronier laughed in surprise.

"King Cézanne, don't laugh, hehe. It's been nearly four years since I was away from home, and I'm afraid that something will happen to my home in the East, and I've been homesick every night lately, and I hope that the king will be fulfilled! I smiled wryly.

"Brother! If you don't return sooner or later, you choose to pick at this time, which makes me very embarrassed! The military rule of the escapee is set by your king of the east! Ronil sat down on the tall throne with a little chagrin, and looked at me coldly with the Persian scepter.

Since the Canaan uprising, I have been his most trusted right-hand man, and I was the first to stand up and embrace him as King of Cézanne.

Now is the time to employ people, but I want to resign and return to the east, which seems to him to be very coercive.

"Brother Wang may have forgotten, I told you before I went to the north of Cana, I did not participate in the uprising for fame and fortune, but for the sake of brotherhood, and when my department gained a firm foothold, I would choose to return to the east one day! Now that Brother Wang has won the world, everything is ready, and there is only one battle in front of him, and it doesn't matter if I'm in Beloea! The two generals, Qin Chong and Liu Zhen'er, are willing to continue to stay in the army and be loyal to the king, and hope that Brother Wang can treat the two of them well! Brother just wants to be a carefree businessman in this life, and please raise your noble hand and let me go! ”

I bowed to King Cézanne, who was high above, and spoke earnestly, only asking for a return to the east, without any intention of arguing for merit.

"This this, this! Lord of the East, you are really embarrassing this king! ”

Ronier laughed twice and stepped down from his throne again.

He originally thought that not only would I return to the east, but also Qin Chong, Liu Zhen'er, and Sha Mihan, the three fierce generals in the army, would also return with me, so it would be really a draw from the bottom of the kettle.

After hearing that Qin Chong and Liu Zhen'er volunteered to stay, Ronier's originally hanging heart let go again.

Qin Chong, the chief general of the Vanguard Corps of the Left Horse Division, is the best choice, and with him, half of the overall situation will be calmed, and the original plan for the western expedition does not need to be changed in the slightest.

As for the defense of the city-state of Beloea, as well as logistics and military training, I left the commander of the garrison, Hami, behind, and Ronier understood the meaning.

Hammy is fully capable of all these military affairs.

In that case, it really doesn't matter if I want to stay or not.

"Alright! There is a proverb in your East that says that a gentleman is not strong, and the lord of the East insists on returning, and Neil is better than obeying his fate! Someone! ”

Ronier smiled ruefully and shouted to the internal affairs officer outside the door.

"Quickly go to the treasury and allocate 100,000 gold coins, I have another use!"

The Interior Officer took the order, and I understood what Ronier meant, and he wanted to reward me for being a meritorious man.

"Brother Wang, never! Hehe! Our army is about to have a big war, and the cost of military money and food is huge, and a piece of gold coin is the life of a sergeant! I still have 10,000 gold in my hand this time, and the travel expenses on the way are sufficient, so Brother Wang doesn't need to worry about it! ”

I thanked Ronier for this initiative, and I was very touched.

"If the king really wants to thank me, when my caravan comes to your country after the establishment of Cézanne Persia in the future, I will be exempted from paying taxes at the checkpoint for several years, and the people will be grateful!"

"The Lord of the East has seen this! Hahaha! I'll give you a letter of state now, and I'll make you Duke of Cezanne of the First Class!" Descendants will enjoy the title and imperial annuity forever! Monopolize the empire's silk trade with the Han Kingdom in the East, and never pay taxes! ”

My words were very useful to Ronier, King of Cézanne, and with a stroke of his pen, he left me a "Dan Book Iron?" on parchment. The arc is thin

If Cezanne and Persia can really achieve hegemony, our Yi clan in Khotan in the Western Regions will be able to obtain wealth in this Persian kingdom with this edict alone.

Ronier has such a heart, and it is not in vain that I have assisted him for so long.

General Hami, who had been standing without interjecting, and I completed the handover procedures for the defense and logistics of Beloea's city in front of Ronier.

"Brother, after you left, I, Cézanne Pos, lost one of the Optimus Pillars! Please also ask my brother to teach me, the state affairs are huge, what should I do? ”

King Cézanne, Ronier, together with General Hami, and a large group of internal guards reluctantly sent me out of the stone gates of the Doge's castle.

Everyone knows that a fierce battle is imminent, and in order not to disturb the morale of the army, there will be no more flowers and wine to see me off.

Ronier took my hand and asked with tears in her eyes as she remembered the days and nights we had spent the past two years together.

"If the king can be virtuous and capable internally, with clear rewards and punishments, compassion, cherishing the people's power, avoiding the strong and powerful externally, waiting for opportunities, and skillfully maneuvering, and Qin Chong, Bourne, Salander, and Hami, who were at the time of the year, will be able to meet the source left and right on the fertile soil of these two rivers, why worry about hegemony! Antioch is happy to be able to conquer it, but if he can't capture it for a long time, please ask the king to withdraw in time to preserve his strength! The surrounding countries have no intimacy, only interests, and the 100,000 troops and horses in the hands of the king are the capital for us to talk to these powers, please remember it! ”

I hope that the ambitious Brother Cézanne will be able to write down a few words.

Waving goodbye to the crowd, Shamihan and I, who had been waiting outside for a long time, turned on our horses and galloped along the long stone-paved street towards the eastern gate of the city-state of Belroea.

We met up with Gulandot and Langton on the official road leading to the Negros Mountains.

The sacred bird Qingluan hovered happily in the blue sky above us, as if celebrating this long-lost good day.

Five Persian horses laden with luggage and money and two Dawan Wuqing, which we had brought from the East, were leisurely nibbling on the yellowing of the artemisia grass by the roadside.

Autumn is here! The wild geese in the north return to the south and we go to the east, all in the direction of our homeland.

"Brother! Old man! Let's go home! ”

Duo'er hit the horse and rushed towards us, her bright smiling face like the spring water of the lake next to the clear breeze and the homeland.

The little girl was dressed in a cotton autumn robe that she had just bought from the Beloeia bazaar, loose and simple and warm as jade.

Like the Roman girl in the neighborhood, or like the joyful elf in the Kunlun Ranch, she hasn't been so happy for a long time.

I felt the ice in my heart slowly melting, and every pore was filled with unparalleled happiness.

"Let's go! Go home! ”

My nose counted, and tears welled up in my eyes.

In order to cover up my embarrassment, I hurriedly hit my horse and galloped away to the long river crossing in front of me.

Just as the wooden boat carrying our four men and eight horses reached the center of the river, two knights stopped to look at us on the hills that connected to the desert in the distance.

"Young master! It's Qin Chong and Liu Zhen'er! Shamihan shouted in ecstasy.

These two guys must have gotten the news from Hami that we've returned home, and they're leaving the team to see me off!

Because I couldn't bear to say goodbye in tears after meeting, I stood on the hill from a distance to see us.

The two sons took a boat, and the scenery was widespread. May words and thoughts be raised, and the center will be raised!

The two sons take a boat, and they pass away, and they wish to think about their sons, and they are not flawless and harmful!

The two of you take a boat to a distant place, drifting along the water.

Whenever I think of the two of you, my heart is sad like a broken bowel.

The two of you go to a distant place by boat, and it is difficult to return home ..... drifting down the river.

Goodbye! My dear brother!
