() Xu Ru: "The prince, the son of a daughter, does not sit in the hall." Although I am very relieved that you will make a move, my method is more appropriate, please consider it. ”

King of Dongzhou: "Don't think about it. Wei Changfeng, I must catch him with my own hands. ”

The king of Dongzhou County remembers Wei Changfeng, at that time, Wei Changfeng chose Gu Chenglin and didn't consider him at all. The king of Dongzhou wanted Wei Changfeng to see how unsuccessful his choice was.

Xu Ru: "Lord Wang, since this is the case, my subordinates will not persuade you." Your subordinates believe in your strength. ”

King of Dongzhou: "Okay, you can continue." ”

Xu Ru: "Yes." ”

Xu Ru: "Next, I will arrange tasks for the generals." General Shi Kaitong. ”

Shi Kaitong: "The end will be." ”

Xu Ru: "You first lead 100,000 horses to Donglai City and pull away the food department hoarded in Donglai City." Then the grain department of the surrounding towns was pulled away and transported to Lintianguan. ”

Shi Kaitong: "Yes, sir, what about the people's homes?" ”

Xu Ru thought for a while: "We still have to rely on the people, let's leave three months' food for the people." ”

Shi Kaitong: "Yes." ”

Donglai City is the first city in Dongzhou, and it is very close to Lindong City, only about 30 miles away.

Xu Ru: "General Zhou Kang." ”

Another general replied, "The last general." ”

Xu Ru: "General Zhou Kang, you lead 50,000 soldiers to Lintian Guandong Mountain to dig a big lake, and then fill the big lake with water. ”

Zhou Kang: "Sir, I don't know how to fill the big lake." ”

Xu Ru: "It's going to be winter soon, the East Mountain is very high, and the snow will definitely be very thick, so you pile a lot of snow into the big lake." General Zhou Kang, you are cultivating the fire system Yuan Force, which is just enough to send flowers and ice and snow. ”

Zhou Kang: "The last general understands." Ordered. ”

Xu Ru: "General Wang Yan." ”

Wang Yan walked out: "The last general." ”

Xu Ru: "General Wang Yan also took 50,000 people to Xishan to carry out the plan just now. ”

Wang Yan: "The last general will be ordered." ”

Xu Ru: "The other three generals are stationed in Donglai City with the remaining 100,000 people, in case of a sudden attack by the imperial court, remember that they can only be defeated, and they cannot fight the imperial court head-on." ”

The remaining three generals: "Yes." The end will be ordered. ”

Xu Ru: "Lord Wang, the task has been dispatched." ”

King of Dongzhou County: "Very good, Xu Ru, you really deserve to be one of the top scholars in Confucianism, and this king also admires your wisdom." ”

Xu Ru: "Thank you for the compliment, this is what your subordinates should do." ”

King of Dongzhou County: "Xu Ru, you haven't married yet, have you?" ”

Xu Ru: "Lord Wang, my subordinates have dedicated their lives to books, so there is no need for marriage." ”

The king of Dongzhou County: "When a man is married, a woman should be married, how can you not get married." ”

Xu Ru: "Lord Wang, I am almost 60 years old this year. It was too late for me to get married. ”

King of Dongzhou County: "With your cultivation, you are 60 years old and have just entered the prime of life. If there is anything that cannot be married, this king will make decisions for you, and he will marry you the seventeenth daughter of this king. ”

Xu Ru understood that the king of Dongzhou wanted to tie him to Dongzhou's chariot completely. This kind of marriage cannot be refused by him.

Xu Ru: "Lord Wang, it's up to you to arrange all this." Subordinates accept. ”

The king of Dongzhou County smiled: "Hahahaha, is this right?" We'll be a family from now on. ”

Xu Ru: "Obey the arrangement of the prince." ”

The king of Dongzhou County: "At this time, you still call me the prince!" ”

Xu Ru: "Son-in-law Xu Ru, I have seen my father-in-law." ”

King of Dongzhou: "That's right." 15 days later

It is a good day and an auspicious day, when the time comes, the king will marry you. ”

Although the time was very rushed, Xu Ru knew that this matter had been decided, and he could only accept it in a hurry.

Xu Ru: "My son-in-law understands. ”

King of Dongzhou: "Okay, you all go down and deal with your own affairs." ”

All the generals: "Yes." ”

Xu Ru: "Father-in-law, Xu Ru also went down." ”

King of Dongzhou County: "Go, the transportation of grain and grass, the inventory work, I will send Changshi to assist you." ”

Xu Ru: "Yes." ”

After Xu Ru also left, the king of Dongzhou County: "Butler, come in." ”

The butler of the king of Dongzhou County walked in: "Lord Wang." ”

King of Dongzhou County: "Go and call the 17th county lord to me." ”

Butler: "Yes." ”

Not long after, a woman who seemed to be about 20 years old, wearing an embroidered dress, carrying a pair of jade phoenix hairpins on her head, dancing with the wind with a thin and soft waist, and Tingbu Luoluo came in a dream.

King of Dongzhou County: "The rain and smoke are coming, come in." ”

17 county lords, whose name is Gu Yuyan.

Gu Yuyan: "Father, are you looking for me?" ”

King of Dongzhou County: "Yuyan, I have arranged a marriage for you." ”

Gu Yuyan: "Father, when did it happen, why didn't I know?" ”

King Dongzhou: "You don't have to worry about this, in 15 days, you will get married, you go and prepare." ”

Gu Yuyan: "Father, daughter doesn't marry." The daughter didn't know who that person was, why did she want to marry. ”

King of Dongzhou County: "The marriage of children should be decided by their parents, and this time I will make decisions for you." The person you want to marry, although he is a little older, but according to his cultivation, it is the prime of life, and you can be happy if you marry him. ”

Gu Yuyan: "Father, the person I want to marry is still a person who is dozens of years older than me?" Father, I will not marry. ”

The king of Dongzhou County: "I can't help you not marry, housekeeper." ”

The butler walked in: "Lord Wang." ”

The king of Dongzhou County: "Take a good look at the county lord of Yuyan, find a few old mothers to teach her what she should learn when she gets married, and she will leave the palace for others." ”

Butler: "Yes." ”

King of Dongzhou County: "Take the Lord of Yuyan down." ”

The housekeeper walked up to Gu Yuyan: "County Lord, please." ”

Gu Yuyan: "Father, I really don't want to marry someone who is dozens of years older than me." ”

King of Dongzhou County: "Butler, take it down." ”

Butler: "County Lord, let's go." ”

Then the housekeeper called a few old mothers and left here with Gu Yuyan.

King of Dongzhou County: "Born in the royal family, your marriage is not for you to call the shots." Marry you to Xu Ru, you are my favorite daughter. ”

Living in the royal family, there is no freedom to marry. Back then, the king of Dongzhou County also fell in love with a girl, but the status of that girl's family was too low, and she was not even qualified to be a concubine for him.

In the end, the king of Dongzhou County married the daughter of a minister, but he was not happy at all.

Since Gu Chenglin became the emperor, he was sent to Dongzhou, and for so many years, he has never seen the girl he once loved.

Time flies, 10 days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Wei Changfeng returned to Shengjing, and after meeting Gu Yongshan, he took the Qilin Legion and the Vermilion Bird Legion to the Near East City with 100,000 people.

There are 100,000 soldiers of the Blue Dragon Legion in the Near East City, this time plus 300,000 people of the entire Qilin Legion, 100,000 Praetorian Guards led by Zhang Cheng, and 100,000 soldiers of the Vermilion Bird Legion. 600,000 people in total.

This is also the reason why Gu Yongshan asked Zhang Cheng to escort the grain and grass eaten by 600,000 people.

At this time, Zhang Cheng was not far from the East City.

At this time, the weather has also entered the cold winter. The temperature dropped a lot all at once.

Fortunately, this situation had been expected before, and the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard were all wearing cotton clothes.

At night, in Zhang Cheng's tent, the flames burned very high. Although Zhang Cheng didn't need a flame to keep warm, Su Daqing had already sent someone to prepare it.

In order not to know that he was too different from humans, Zhang Cheng did not refuse to burn a stove in his tent.

At this moment, Su Daqing, Zhan Tong, and Zhang Cheng's 8 men are all in Zhang Cheng's camp.

Zhang Cheng looked at the map and said, "We are only three days away from the East City. Zhan Tong, you quickly rush to the Near East City tomorrow, inform the defenders of the Near East City, and clean up the grain depot. ”

Zhan Tong: "Yes." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Su Daqing, give me the map of Dongzhou." ”

Su Daqing: "National teacher, wait a minute, the map of Dongzhou is in my camp, I'll go get it." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Go and come back quickly." ”

It didn't take long for Su Daqing to take the map of Dongzhou: "National teacher, my map is not very detailed for Dongzhou, but in the near East City, there should be a very detailed map of Dongzhou." ”

Zhang Cheng opened the map of Dongzhou: "The Near East City is here, and after that, it is Dongzhou." The first city in Dongzhou was Donglai City. The king of Dongzhou County should be heavily armed here. ”

Su Daqing: "National teacher, did the king of Dongzhou know about our eastward crusade." ”

Zhang Cheng: "According to the news from the beacon tower, Dongzhou has been mobilizing troops and horses on a large scale, and it is obvious that the king of Dongzhou knows that we are going to go east. And in the court, there should be a dark line of the king of Dongzhou County. He should have known about it a long time ago. ”

Zhan Tong: "National teacher, are you saying that among the ministers of the court, there are traitors. ”

Zhang Cheng: "As a military general, you don't need to know this. These things, you know, are not good. ”

Zhan Tong: "It's the last general's gaffe." ”

Zhang Cheng meant that he didn't want these generals to get involved in the battle of the court. The battle in the court was too dangerous, and most of the generals were simple-minded, and it was easy to lose their lives if they were involved in this kind of battle.

Zhang Cheng: "I said, you listen, after listening to the order, the execution of the order is, there are some things, just forget it." ”

Zhan Tong: "Yes." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Zhan Tong, after you go to the Near East City, notify the guards of the Near East City, and send a reconnaissance horse to reconnoiter the movements of the East Continent at any time." It is important to know what the king of Dongzhou is doing. ”

Zhan Tong: "Yes." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Fan Chenghai, Heavenly Sin, Han Hao, Wang Gang, the four of you will go with Zhan Tong." Infiltrate Dongzhou in person and find out the situation of the defenders of Donglai City. ”

Fan Chenghai and the four: "Yes." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Remember, just find out the situation, no matter what you see or what you see, you are not allowed to make a move." After figuring out the situation, he immediately returned to the Near East City and waited for me to go. ”

Fan Chenghai and the four: "Yes." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Beitang Renjie, Earth Sin, tomorrow you will go to the end of the convoy and take over Zhan Tong's work." ”

Beitang Renjie, Earth Sin: "Yes." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Xie Qiuyue, Hu Ming, the two of you will work hard tomorrow and take over the work of the previous 8 people." ”

Xie Qiuyue, Hu Ming: "This is what subordinates should do." ”

Zhang Cheng: "By the way, Su Daqing, where is Wei Changfeng?" ”

Su Daqing: "National Teacher, General Wei is traveling lightly, and there are only three days away from catching up with us." We arrived in the Near East Side about a day before them. ”

At this time, a carrier pigeon flew into Zhang Cheng's hand.

Zhang Cheng took down the letter on the pigeon's leg: "There is news from the beacon tower that Dongzhou is now clearing the wilderness, and they have transported a large amount of grain to Lintianguan. ”
