Outside Lingzhou City, Cheng Huailiang swept around with bloodshot eyes. This is already the fifth day of Qin Ze's disappearance, and it is Qin Ze who is talking about not seeing people alive and dead and not seeing corpses.

In the past few days, Cheng Huailiang has almost searched the surrounding area within twenty miles, but except for finding the murderer who killed Qin Ze, there is no trace of Qin Ze at all.

Cui Erye exchanged his life for his life, and took all the charges for killing Qin Ze. A sentence of self-determination and apology will remove all the involvement of the Cui family. knew that it was Cui Shi who did it, but Cheng Huailiang couldn't do anything.

He only hoped that Qin Ze was still alive and well, after all, as long as his body was not found, then Qin Ze still had a chance of surviving.

But......

The situation in Lingzhou City is becoming more and more complicated now, and Cheng Chumo and the others have already detected several Turkic scouts nearby. But now they still don't have a clue, they don't know where Yehulu's army is, and now they can only hope that Zhoucheng, who has been mixed into the Turkic interior, can come back as soon as possible.

These days, since Qin Ze's disappearance, Cui Shi, who has been closed, has reappeared in everyone's field of vision. If it weren't for Cheng Chumo and Li Duwei's insistence, I'm afraid that even Cui Shi would have to intervene in the affairs of the Nanding Army.

In fact, Cui Shi originally wanted to continue to elevate all of Qin Ze's old departments, but as a result, the master of the Ordnance Supervision directly took out the holy decree given by His Majesty. This holy decree didn't even know Qin Ze, but it was a genuine Li Er holy decree.

It was only when he saw this holy decree that Cui Shi realized the seriousness of the matter.

The holy decree has Li Er's holy words on it, no one is allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Nanding Army, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!

The tone of this sentence is a bit heavy, although for a family like the Cui family, the weight of self-asserted identity is too heavy, and thinking of His Majesty, he does not dare to act rashly. But the fact is that if Cui Shi hadn't hid quickly, the master of the Ordnance Prison might have really done it.

This makes things a little confusing, everyone knows that the Nanding Army was brought by Qin Ze. Originally, in their opinion, Qin Ze was just an existence that was pushed out by Li Er. Just like Cui Erye, he is a live target. Therefore, after being deflated by Qin Ze's hands for a while, the Cui family made up their minds that they could no longer let Qin Ze grow like this.

Especially this time, Li Erfen conferred the title of Qin Ze, which made the Cui family smell danger. The battle of Yan'er Mountain and Qin Ze were in full swing, and the Cui family's face was damaged. Originally, he wanted to use the Turks to get rid of Qin Ze, but this guy insisted on annihilating the Turkic three thousand iron horsemen again.

What is this concept? Even the Cui family, who had always looked down on Qin Ze, was completely panicked. It wasn't until the salt matter was poked out that Trish knew he couldn't wait any longer.

originally thought that Cui Erye would be able to block the mouth of the world by apologizing for his crimes. But after seeing this holy decree given by His Majesty, Cui Shi realized that it was wrong.

Although Your Majesty's will refers to the gunpowder bullet of the Ordnance Supervisor, you must know that this thing was made by Qin Ze, and what it means can be imagined.

But it was too late, and the body of Cui Erye, who had already been disposed of, and the blood letter were immediately stopped by Cui Shi. He underestimated Qin Ze's importance, and now all he had to do was to delay the matter until the Cui family in Chang'an had time to come up with a countermeasure.

Of course, even if Qin Ze is really important, his Cui family is not afraid at all. If he, Li Er, dared to make a move against his Cui family, then the entire court would definitely set off a bloody storm.

It's just that the foundation can't be damaged, but it will inevitably peel off the skin. So this matter can only be delayed, it just so happens that now the entire Lingzhou City is panicking because of the matter of protecting Lu on the one hand, and on the other hand, Cheng Huailiang and they have not given up looking for Qin Ze. So for a while, no one paid attention to it.

It's just that after this trouble, Cui Shi, who was still proud and arrogant, also reined in. In addition, he also knew that he was a few pounds and a few taels, so he simply closed the door again.

He stopped, but the deployments that Qin Ze had done were still running. The first underground cave around Lingzhou City has been completed, one zhang deep and three zhang wide. And above the ground, the first one-foot-wide earthen wall has been completely built.

The hot air balloons in the Ordnance Prison are also being made non-stop, because Qin Ze is not there, so the task of teaching soldiers to control hot air balloons can only be placed on Gou Yuzi.

On the other side, they went deep into the Zhou City of the Xitu tribe, and they were also going well at this time. Just yesterday, Sun Yufu "accidentally" told the story of bringing sixty stones of salt under the pretense of wine.

This was immediately heard by those who were interested, and salt is a strategic material. In particular, the fact that the amount of sixty stones aroused the interest of the Turks even more.

So early this morning, outside the tent of the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce, a few Turkic soldiers came. Sun Yufu, who was full of alcohol, was taken out, and he didn't kill the merchants in the battle. This is the rule they believe in, because wars are won and lost, but merchants can bring what they need.

In particular, Sun Yufu's sentence "There is a large amount of salt" made the Turkic soldiers even more moved. This time, the person in charge of negotiating with him was an official in charge of logistics in the Chinese army of Yehulu, whose name was Ge Shuming.

He came up and hugged Sun Yufu without saying a word, slapped him a few times on his body, and said cordially: "Honorable businessman, I heard that you have a large amount of salt, so I came to look for you." I wonder if you would be interested in making a deal with us? ”

Although the identity of the other party has been seen from the other party's dress and temperament, Sun Yufu still hugged the other party with a drunken face and said cordially: "As long as you can afford the money, you can have as much salt as you want." ”

"The honorable merchant is from Lingzhou City?" Ge Shuming thought that Sun Yufu was just a simple businessman, after all, his face of only recognizing money and not people made him feel very relieved.

Falsehood is to be true and false, Sun Yufu hugged the other party, blushed and roared: "A certain self is from that Lingzhou City, you don't know that Lingzhou City has long been under martial law now, and many soldiers have firmly surrounded Lingzhou City." If they hadn't paid too little for it, I would have bought it for them. ”

As soon as he heard Sun Yufu mention the matter of Lingzhou City, Ge Shuming was also interested. He asked people to sit down with Sun Yufu, and the people on the side immediately brought all kinds of early milk tea, ready to greet Sun Yufu.

And Sun Yufu is also an old man, so he is pulling with each other sentence by sentence.

"I heard that there is a major general in Lingzhou City, I heard that it is a divine soldier who has descended to earth, presumably Mr. Sun has also heard of this person, right?" Looking inadvertent, Ge Shuming led the topic to Qin Ze.

In the first battle of Yan'er Mountain, the 2,000 Tang army defeated 10,000 Turkic soldiers, and even the Turkic general Azuli was buried on the battlefield. Tie Legu, who fled back, even threatened that the Tang Army had produced a major general who could attract divine thunder from the sky, as if a divine soldier descended to earth.

He also threatened that before the war, a big star hung upside down, and everyone called Ashina the wolf god.

Not many people believed in these statements, but it is possible for one person to lie, but it is a little wrong for everyone to lie together.

So when Tie Legu sent back the news that he saw this person in Xishan, he also sent three thousand iron horsemen directly. But the result?

All the three thousand iron horsemen were buried in Xishan, and the bones of Tie Le were cut off by someone, and now it is estimated that they are all about to be sent to Chang'an. The people who fled back were saying the same thing, and this time even Yehuru had to reconsider.

So in this way, Qin Ze changed the entire plan of the Turks with the power of one person, and in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Hulu preferred to go around to Chushuer Mountain. In order to attack the east and west, in fact, the real Turkic army has begun to approach Lingzhou City.

And all this is done for the legendary Major General!

Sun Yufu held a cup of goat's milk and took a sip very comfortably. He leaned on the tent on the side, and said to Ge Shuming very lazily: "The goat milk here is delicious, it can really be regarded as pure and sweet, and it is really enjoyable." ”

Sun Yufu kept drinking goat's milk, but he was deliberately consuming Ge Shuming's patience. waited until he had seen it almost, and then muttered to himself: "Sun has heard of this person, and he has seen it in the city before." ”

"Oh, what else does Mr. Sun know?" Ge Shuming gave the person on the side a look, and the other party immediately poured goat's milk on Sun Yufu.

But Sun Yufu was still drinking goat's milk by himself, ignoring Ge Shuming at all. It's just that one hand is rubbing unconsciously.

Ge Shuming reacted immediately, and immediately took out a silver cake from his arms with a smile and threw it to Sun Yufu with a smile.

"Hey, hey." Sun Yufu, who was still drunk, immediately widened his eyes, and then arched his hand at Brother Shuming, and quietly took the silver cake into his arms.

"Sun, but I heard that there is a person from Lingzhou City who is from Chang'an, and I heard that he still has something to do with the Cheng family. I don't know if it's the major general in the mouth of Ge Shuming. ”

Only halfway through the words, Sun Yufu stopped talking again, and then drank the goat's milk.

If Qin Ze was here, he would definitely slap Sun Yufu, and his acting skills were simply ......

Ge Shuming smiled knowingly, took out a silver cake from his arms and threw it to Sun Yufu.

"I heard that the surname is Qin, as for what it is called, where can a little person like me know. As for what divine soldiers descend to earth? I've never heard of that. ”

Seeing that Sun Yufu obviously knew a lot of things, Ge Shuming was not stingy. Directly poked out five silver cakes from his arms at once, and then threw them directly to Sun Yufu.

"This is all I have, and I want to ask Mr. Sun for something." Ge Shuming lowered his voice, but his face became solemn.

"Master Ge Shuming just asks, as long as Sun knows, he will definitely know everything." Sun Yufu said as he put away all the silver cakes on the ground. The forehead lines on his face are almost smiling into Sichuan character lines.

"I wonder if Mr. Sun knows a black piece of iron?"

Sure enough, Qin Ze's gunpowder bullet had already aroused the suspicion of the Turks, and they also knew that the reason why Qin Ze was able to defeat them twice was because of this thing.

Sun Yufu naturally knew what Ge Shuming was talking about, so he lowered his voice at the moment, leaned forward, and Ge Shuming also came up with interest.
