Chapter 170: Unbelievable
The corners of Zhang Peilun's mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile, if he remembered correctly, this was the seventh time that Li Hongzhang had asked such a question! Li Hongzhang asked six times before, and Zhang Peilun also answered six times, how to answer this time in order to satisfy this Zhongtang and father-in-law? Even Zhang Peilun, who is amazingly talented and has five cars, is in a difficult situation at this time.
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Peilun replied cautiously, "Lord Zhongtang doesn't have to worry too much, since Ren Chao can have such confidence, even if he can't win a big victory, he will definitely be able to retreat!" โ
"I hope so!" Li Hongzhang nodded and said, then couldn't help but sneer, shook his head and said, "When people are old, they are verbose!" โ
"Lord Zhongtang is not old at all, maybe it's because I've worked too hard in the past two days! Why don't you go and rest first! The students are keeping watch here, and as soon as news comes out, I will immediately inform Nakado-sama. Zhang Peilun saw Li Hongzhang's haggard face, so he couldn't bear it and hurriedly persuaded him.
"Don't go! I can't sleep even if I lie down! Li Hongzhang shook his head stubbornly, "It's better to sit here and wait, if there is news, I can sleep peacefully!" โ
"Why don't I change another cup of tea for Lord Nakado?" Zhang Peilun asked tentatively.
"No need, no matter how good the tea is, I can't taste it now, so don't waste it!" Li Hongzhang shook his head and said, "You can smoke a bag of cigarettes to refresh yourself!" โ
"Smoking is not good for your health, so it's better to smoke less!" Zhang Peilun cautiously persuaded.
"Just smoke for a while! Lift yourself up, go and call someone! Li Hongzhang waved his hand and said.
Zhang Peilun had no choice but to call in the two waiters who were in charge of serving Li Hongzhang's smoking, and the two of them had already begun to nap in the wing, and when they heard Li Hongzhang asking for cigarettes, where did they dare to slack off, so they immediately hurried over to serve. The two waiters were skillful, and they cooperated tacitly to serve Li Hongzhang there. Zhang Peilun sat on the chair next to him and looked at Li Hongzhang, who seemed to be enjoying it very much. I couldn't stop praying in my heart, praying that Ren Chao would be able to win a big victory.
I don't know how long it took, it seemed that he had enjoyed enough, Li Hongzhang waved his hand and ordered the two waiters to retreat. Li Hongzhang turned his head to look at Zhang Peilun, "What time is it now?" โ
"It's time to be ugly!" Zhang Peilun replied honestly.
"It's been so long, why hasn't there been any news yet?" Li Hongzhang couldn't help but worry again, his brows couldn't help but twist into a ball, to be honest, Li Hongzhang hadn't been so concerned about a matter for some years. Originally, in terms of Li Hongzhang's status and status, there were not many things that could make Li Hongzhang care. But this time is different, because this battle is related to the safety of the capital. If the victory is of course a great joy, but if it is defeated, the little devil is likely to take the opportunity to attack the city, and it is precisely because of the importance of the relationship that Li Hongzhang can not care.
"Report~! Frontline Emergency Battle Report! Just when Li Hongzhang and the others were anxious, a scout shouted and rushed directly into Li Hongzhang's mansion.
Zhang Peilun hurriedly stood up when he heard this, although Li Hongzhang didn't move, but his heart suddenly clenched. The scout hurried into the lobby and said loudly on one knee. "Lord Qi Zhongtang, emergency battle report on the front line! Jiaoao Town's commander-in-chief Ren Chao Ren was the master, and Yu Zishi personally led the Tiger Ben army out of Guangqumen and attacked the Japanese camp at night. Outside the Guangqu Gate, the Japanese army was defeated. The 6th Division of the Japanese Army was routed on all fronts, and our army won a complete victory! At present, Ren is leading his troops to clean up the battlefield, and the specific results are still being counted. Mr. Zhou sent a villain to report the victory to the Lord of the Middle Hall! โ
"Great victory! What a victory! Nakado-sama! Zhang Peilun jumped up immediately when he heard this, and Zhang Peilun, who has always been relatively calm, could not suppress the excitement in his heart at this time. I couldn't help but scream loudly.
"Knock knock!" Li Hongzhang poked the crutch in his hand twice on the ground, and said with an old face dissatisfied, "Isn't it just a small victory?" It's also worth getting carried away with joy! Li Hongzhang said so. But those slightly trembling hands proved that Li Hongzhang's mood at this time was not as calm as it seemed on the surface, in fact, Li Hongzhang was excited in his heart at this time, but after years of cultivation, he couldn't help but not come out.
"Yes! The student lost his manners, and I hope that the adults in the middle hall will forgive their sins! Zhang Peilun hurriedly apologized.
"You!" Li Hongzhang pointed at Zhang Peilun with a crutch, and then smiled, "This Ren Chao is really unexpected, I originally thought that just by relying on some hungry people, how could he fight the elite troops of the Japanese army that were well-trained and armed to the teeth, but I didn't expect this kid to really succeed!" I'm getting more and more fond of this kid now! Hehehe! Saying that, Li Hongzhang couldn't help laughing.
Zhang Peilun couldn't help but laugh when he saw Li Hongzhang laughing, the great victory on the front line is naturally a happy thing, "The students also thought that most of the soldiers of General Ren would not succeed, even if the surprise sneak attack was successful, it was not easy to win a small victory, but I didn't expect to win a big victory!" The students think that this Ren General Soldier seems to have a magical force to turn decay into magic, thinking that in North Korea, all the armies were defeated, but this Ren General Soldier, Leng relied on a group of defeated soldiers to defeat the invincible Japanese army repeatedly, and pulled up a powerful tiger army under the nose of the Japanese army, and today, a group of refugees in the hands of Ren Chao turned into a tiger and wolf army, and was able to defeat the elite division of the little devil, this qiฤ feels a little incredible when you think about it! Zhang Peilun said excitedly.
"Yes! It's hard to believe! I always feel that there is a fog on this Ren Chao's body, which makes people unable to see the details! Li Hongzhang pursed his lips and said, "It's not that my old man boasts, there are really few people in the entire Qing Dynasty who can make me unable to see through!" โ
After Li Hongzhang finished speaking, he saw that the scout who reported the victory was still kneeling on the ground, and it turned out that the two of them were chatting happily, and they actually forgot about him. Li Hongzhang smiled, turned his head to the scout and said, "You have a meritorious service!" Young wood! Reward him with ten taels of silver! After finishing speaking, Li Hongzhang stood up and walked to the back hall with a smile, this time Li Hongzhang could sleep peacefully!
"Thank you, Lord Nakado, for the reward!" When the scout heard this, he quickly kowtowed and thanked him, and his heart was already happy, and he received a reward of ten taels of silver when he reported a letter.
Zhang Peilun coughed and said, "Okay, don't kowtow, Lord Zhongtang has already left!" Come with me and claim your reward! โ
"Thank you, Master Zhang!" The scout hurriedly got up and walked out after Zhang Peilun.
"You saw it all when the Tiger Army attacked the enemy camp at night, right? Tell me how they won. Zhang Peilun asked curiously as he walked.
The little one was standing on the gate tower and could see it clearly. As soon as the tiger army came out of the city gate, he killed the little devil directly, and the posture was like a tiger entering the wolf pack, and the little devil who killed directly cried and called his mother, and the wolf bรจi fled...... "This scout is very clever and can speak, as soon as he heard Zhang Peilun ask, he immediately spoke vividly. (To be continued......)
