Chapter 272: The Situation Is Dangerous for News to Leak
Xianrong Western Horde Border.
The green fields are endless, the lakes are clear and blue, the wind moves the grass, and the cattle and sheep are leisurely.
In the dense woods, a group of soldiers in civilian clothes hurriedly ran towards the place where Yan Beifeng was.
"Qi Qi Sima, our department has detected that there is no garrison in the Xianrong West Tent, and the Elder of the West Tent has been living in the Middle Tent recently."
The people who came were from the Yilong camp, and they heard the news from the surrounding grazing tribes, and since there was no garrison in the West Horde, the elders dragged their families to live in the Middle Tent temporarily.
"Oh? A godsend...... It seems that the Xianrong King Tent really smashed the treasure on Tan Gen. Luo Feng was the first to speak.
Yan Beifeng thought about it, at this moment, Tan Gen should have found their traces, and he didn't know whether he was chasing them or going south.
"We went straight to the middle tent and caught him off guard." Yan Beifeng immediately decided, if Tan Gen came back to help, then before he rushed back, he would smash Huanglong, and then wait for work, although the enemy had 100,000 people, but Yan Beifeng was still very confident, with the Qingshuang Sword in his hand.
Luo Feng nodded, and the soldiers of the Yilong Battalion quickly went to give orders to the various departments.
Subsequently, the coalition troops pulled out of the camp, jumped out of this green forest, and stepped on this green grassland, which was the first time that the coalition soldiers felt the charm of the grassland.
Pharmacist Li's iron cavalry provided reconnaissance cover for the army.
Along the way, they avoided the location of the grazing tribes, and occasionally the nomadic ones were mercilessly wiped out on the spot by the Ganzhou Iron Cavalry far away.
Under the instruction of Yan Beifeng, under the leadership of Li Bi, the Yilong Battalion plundered a small tribe and harvested a lot of mutton, and dozens of people in the tribe became prisoners.
The army marched non-stop, and until this time, the Xianrong King Tent did not know at all.
It takes about half a month to walk from the border of the West Tent to the Middle Tent, which makes Yan Beifeng a little headache, and secretly vows that he must form a strong cavalry in the future.
Just when the coalition army rushed to the middle tent, Xianrong's 100,000 army was on the way back to the division, their marching speed was a little abnormal, the soldiers were silent, without the usual laughter and scolding, they all walked with their heads bowed with heavy faces, so the army went faster and faster, seemingly tireless, no one urged, no one commanded, and the 100,000 army was in order. Even leading them was a little surprised, what happened to these guys, so energetic......
Tangen's body was cremated, and the ashes were carried with him. Xu is Tangen's suicide stimulated these Xianrong soldiers and made them heavy. At this moment, he no longer has the heart to care about the psychology of the soldiers, and in his heart, he is thinking about where the coalition army is located at this moment? What are you doing? What should I do next?
Duo Ji is still a very self-aware person, he knows that he is not the opponent of Yan Beifeng, but now, he has to prepare to face him, Duo Ji is a little uneasy in his heart, and anxiety slows him down.
……
On the 10th day of the seventh month of the Chang'an calendar, Chang'an City.
Chang Long, who had just returned home from Wuwei County, hurriedly met a person in the study.
"What's the matter, let the old man rush back?" Chang Long pulled his face, sat at the desk, and said in a deep voice to the man in the black cloak in front of him, with unhappiness in his tone.
"Does the news from Xia Cheng matter?" The man in black asked mysteriously.
"Say it." When Chang Long heard that Xia Cheng was moving, he didn't dare to underestimate it, and asked hurriedly.
"The Southern Horde Army has abandoned Xiacheng, and the whole army has begun to retreat, and it is estimated that it has now been pushed outside the Great Wall and entered the territory of the Southern Horde." The black cloak lowered his head, he couldn't see its face clearly, he only listened to it, and he could vaguely feel a domineering aura, but he deliberately lowered his voice and cleverly concealed it.
"What news did you get from your steps? The withdrawal of troops at this moment must be a major event in the country, is it possible to ......" Chang Long speculated, and roughly guessed in his heart, could it be that Budu got the news of the coalition army's attack on Xianrong? It shouldn't be, even I have only been getting the news for a few days, let alone outsiders?
"I'm afraid there is a change in the country." Black Cloak continued.
"Any other news?" Chang Long frowned and asked, if the Southern Horde Army returns to meet the coalition army, I'm afraid the situation will be dangerous......
"It is said that Tangen committed suicide......" Black Cloak thought for a moment and said leisurely.
"What? Committed suicide? Chang Long was surprised.
"Yes, the 100,000 troops of Yunzhou are also on their way back to the division." The black cloak continued, he secretly raised his eyes to look at Chang Long's expression, only to see Chang Long's face solemn, anxious, and a smile on the corner of the black cloak's mouth.
"It's not good...... How good is that? "Chang Long ran out of ideas for a while, the Southern Horde Army plus the 100,000 Western Horde Army, I'm afraid there are 150,000 people, and when the time comes, the east and west will be attacked, and the coalition army will have a chance to retreat...... Chang Long began to worry about his son, and regretted letting him go with the army......
"Mansion Marshal, it's nothing, I'll retire next." The black cloak saw that Chang Long was preoccupied, so he retreated with interest.
"Wait, what do you think Ben Shuai can do to help them?" Chang Long stared at the man and said.
"Back to the marshal, the whip is out of reach, even if the army is raised at this time, he can't catch up, so he can only ask for more blessings, not to mention that the marshal really wants to help Luo Feng?" Black Cloak said with a slight sarcasm.
"Are you sure you can rescue my son?" Chang Long knew that the person in front of him who worked for him but refused to rely on him had a lot of ability, for so many years, he had been trying to control this person, but he had no choice but to find that he couldn't do it at all, so that this person came and went without a trace, wandering on the edge of his own control, as if he was cooperating with himself again, but he didn't know what this person was trying to do, but his ability did do a lot of things for himself, so he didn't care about anything else.
"That's nature." After hearing this, the black cloak turned around, raised his head, looked at Chang Long and smiled, it seemed that this was the sentence he was waiting for.
"You're just waiting for me to beg you, right? Say, what conditions? Chang Long sneered.
"The marshal is magnificent, I heard that the marshal has been investigating the matter of Jinghua Lake recently, as long as the marshal agrees not to pursue it again, I can help you protect the safe return of the son." The black cloak puffed out his chest and said calmly.
Chang Long frowned, this person is actually related to Jinghua Lake? Could it be that he played some trick?
"It seems that you squeezed the land of the fifteen counties between the two prefectures." Chang Long stared at the man with blazing eyes.
"Hahaha, that's right, the marshal shouldn't think that the land of the fifteen counties is more important than the life of the son, don't hide it, I've already sent someone on the way there." The black cloak took two steps back and forth in front of the table, and said quietly.
Chang Long's heart tightened, this was threatening himself......
