Chapter 182: Silence

Kulunbo, here is located in the northeast of the empire a "pearl", the pearl made of water, its east and west width stretches for nearly 100 miles, its area is greater than the north of the empire is unsurpassed, adjacent to the Great Xianbei Mountain (now the Great Xing'an Mountains), the climate environment of the northeast has long winters and short summers make the ice period of Kulunbo more than half a year, but it is also because of this, so that the people living in its surroundings are indispensable to eat fatty fish and shrimp in this cold and frozen winter.

And it is this pearl of the Northeast that has nurtured countless Murwei people living here, and Kulunbo is surrounded by Murwei, which has dominated the northeast of the empire for hundreds of years.

When Nari first set foot on this rich land, he was deeply attracted by everything in front of him, and the greedy desire once again occupied all of Nari, although greedy, Nari was not stupid enough to attack this northeastern overlord with his current little strength.

Murwei and Khitan of the same clan, at the beginning of the Khitan tribe, the same attached to the Turks, since the Turks were collapsed by the Tang Dynasty, its gradual momentum and self-contained, initially divided into north and south, and then divided into 25 large and small parts, now roughly divided into nine parts, located in the northeast of the Tang Dynasty.

Because of the long winter days, most of them live by hunting, except for the slightly better Hejiebu near Kulunbo, the other tribes are relatively poor, and they go to the mountains to live in caves every year until the end of October to escape the long and cold winter.

When Nari walked to the tent of the Ujie Khan, he couldn't help but stop and look, there was no giant drum, no big drum on the side, just a shabby and simple tent, and two Uighur Khan flags.

A sneer flashed in Nari's heart, and then he slowly walked into the tent.

Through the brazier in the center of the tent, through the raging flames, Nelli finally saw the familiar and disgusting face again.

"Hahaha! See who's coming? The greatest warrior of the steppes, the son of Tengri, the god of the steppes, Nali, welcomes you back to the Khan's account! ”

Through the firelight, Nelli saw the culprit who had destroyed his family, and he was welcoming himself with open arms, as well as the arrival of death.

......

The Deep State.

It is said that Li Zhensi is not ***, but in the past few days, Li Zhensi's desire is not ***, but another desire, a desire that has been hidden in his heart and accompanied by two whole lives.

A very simple word: money.

The solution of the problem of grain and grass has made Wang Zhen and other cadres of Li Zhen have been worshiped as gods, since Pangu opened the world to the present, grain and grass are the top priority, but no one has ever used such means to solve this important problem related to the life and death of the army, Li Zhen did it, although everyone does not know what method Li Zhen used to ask for a full 3,000 stone of grain and grass with only a handletter, but the more this is the case, the more everyone feels that Li Zhen is unfathomable, as if there is no problem in this world that can stump the thin young general, It seems that there is nothing in this world that he cannot solve.

So much so that as soon as Li Zhen appeared in the barracks, the officers and men of the whole army looked at him with a kind of mountain gaze, and the feeling of being worshiped was really - so distressed!

However, Li Zhen knows very well that if he has not really gone through a few hearty victories in the army, this kind of worship will eventually disperse like rootless water, but at least now he has a good start, and there will always be wars, but not now.

However, for Li Zhen, since these 3,000 iron horsemen are coming, there is absolutely no possibility of returning them.

However, for Zhang Zhongwu, although he knows everything about Wang Yuankui's calculations, he has lost the opportunity to turn the tables, because the moment Li Zhen stepped into Shenzhou, he lost the opportunity and was destined to lose some things, such as Zhenzhou, Yizhou and Dingzhou.

Zhang Zhongwu hated Li Zhen to the core, but he couldn't help it, Yan Shuo's entrustment was one thing, but more importantly, the court was His Majesty.

Li Chengye and Li Zhen's father and son are the Youzhou assassin and marching Sima ordered by His Majesty, perhaps in the eyes of others, this is just a simple appointment, but Zhang Zhongwu can see clearly that this father and son are just a pair of eyes planted by His Majesty in his own territory.

After all, he has repeatedly resisted the emperor's orders in the matter of using troops against the Xi people, and he is bound to lose some of His Majesty's trust to a certain extent, so it is not surprising that His Majesty has planted some eyes and ears under his nose.

So for Zhang Zhongwu, Li Chengye's father and son can't die, at least not under their own noses, so maybe they can get back some of His Majesty's trust in him, the Shenzhou incident is not big, and it is not small to say, because everyone is watching, and the fatal thing is that His Majesty, who is far away in the capital, is also watching.

If there is even the slightest hesitation in his own rescue operation, then His Majesty has enough reason to pay an unimaginable price.

A small deep state, a seemingly ordinary revenge action, but it has become an invisible line between the capital, Chengde and Lu Long, a fragile line, once this line breaks, then it will be a heavy blow to Lu Long.

Zhang Zhongwu has absolute reason to believe that once that time comes, Cheng Dejun and Wei Bojun will definitely help the imperial court's crusading army to attack him with the mentality of "beating the water dogs", and at that time, he will lose more than just these three states.

Zhang Zhongwu is a person who is good at weighing the pros and cons, otherwise he would not risk disobedience to delay the time of using troops against the Xi people, because it is not that he does not want to fight, but now that he is fighting his own Lu Longjun is bound to pay a heavy price, and attacking the Xi people, looking at the entire empire, there will be no second person with more experience than himself, so Zhang Zhongwu chose to disobey, because he knew that the imperial court would not sanction himself because of this.

However, it is precisely because of his own disobedience that he must not make any mistakes in the matter of the deep state, and he must not give the court a reason to attack himself, after all, in the face of the loss of three states compared with the crusade army of the imperial court, he would rather choose the former.

So at this moment, in Zhang Zhongwu's opinion, these three states have been erased from his map, but now they are just a piece of paper from the imperial court.

In any case, in Zhang Zhongwu's opinion, he is the loser in this game, and he has lost completely and without suspense.

Zhang Zhongwu, Wang Yuankui, and Li Zhen constitute the protagonists of this mime, but it is the Tang Dynasty Emperor who is far away in Daming Palace who influences the development of the plot.

When night fell, the lights outside the city of Shenzhou were bright, the wind at this time had brought the coolness of autumn, the withered yellow leaves fell from the sky, dancing with the wind on the ground, making the sound of salsa, except for the soldiers who patrolled the night, most of them had already fallen asleep, and the tranquility of the days made their originally tense hearts gradually relax, sleep deeply, and sleep peacefully.

At this moment, I saw six soldiers quickly sneaking into the dark night from different directions of the battalion, silently, not even disturbed by the fallen leaves on the ground, until they were dozens of feet away from the battalion, and the six figures quickly converged.

"General, the horses are ready!" One of the soldiers whispered, and several others saluted the thin figure one after another.

These five people are the five veterans of Shence brought by Li Zhen.

Li Zhen nodded after hearing this, and asked, "Didn't you alarm the others!" ”

The five did not speak, only nodded, because they knew that at this time, every word they said was one less point of exposure.

"Let's go!"

Li Zhen said in a low voice, and then walked towards a dense forest on the left.

......

into a German army battalion.

When Li Zhen appeared in Wang Yuankui's Chinese army tent, Wang Yuankui looked surprisingly calm, as if he had expected Li Zhen to come.

"Hehe, General Li, a young hero, seeing it today makes the envoy feel old!"

Wang Yuankui did not wear a helmet and armor, but wore a crimson robe with a black scarf on his head, his figure was not high, but he showed the strength and uprightness of the general, although his face was not handsome, but there was a majesty in his gestures, and the wisp of green beard under his chin added a bit of wisdom to it, which was quite the style of a Confucian general.

"Hehe, Wang Yuanjun is in the middle of the year, but it makes the kid feel presumptuous and abrupt!"

Li Zhen said and took off the hood, revealing the black scarf on his head, compared with Wang Yuankui, he was only sixteen years old, he did look more immature, plus he was born with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and the burly Wang Yuankui looked thousands of miles away.

It seems to be related to the perennial practice of that style of swordsmanship, although Li Zhen is thin, but his posture is straight, like a sword, which makes the whole person not only look energetic, but even has a sword breath between his eyebrows, or it is a dangerous breath, a dangerous breath that people's intuition can clearly feel.

Perhaps sensing this dangerous aura on Li Zhen's body, Wang Yuankui looked at Li Zhen and was slightly stunned, and a look of surprise quickly flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.

"Hehe, General Li, please take a seat!" Wang Yuankui smiled, but stretched out his hand and pointed to the last futon in the account, and most of the generals in the account looked at Li Zhen with mockery.

Li Zhen glanced at the futon, and then didn't mind walking over and sitting cross-legged, but he didn't say a word again.

Seeing this, Wang Yuankui had to take the lead in asking: "I don't know what General Li meant by coming late at night?" Isn't the grain and grass eaten again? ”

After that, the generals burst into laughter, and the look of mockery on their faces was even worse.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhen pretended to be surprised and said: "Wang Yuanjun is really like a god, the three thousand stones of grain and grass have been used up, and there are still five thousand stones left, and I hope that the king will help one or two!" ”

After Wang Yuankui heard this, he immediately reprimanded angrily: "Li Zhen, don't talk nonsense, this time I'm afraid that you will not come back!" (To be continued.) )
