Chapter 25 Aftermath
White sends black hair, and the father sends the son, and filial piety cannot be worn, so the team to welcome the relatives will naturally not be white. In fact, this team can only be regarded as protecting the princess Luanjia, and it has nothing to do with welcoming relatives, everyone is dead, you welcome a hairy parent.
Hongli went to arrange it, and there were flying geese in the wedding convoy, and they could pass the book, and this matter must be known to His Majesty as soon as possible, and find a way to remedy it. It is a good thing to marry a princess, but it may not be a good thing to marry the ninth princess, and the ninth princess to marry is dead, which is a great evil.
Great Chu attaches equal importance to civil and military affairs, and the relationship between His Majesty and Wenchen is not harmonious, which is a well-known thing. It is necessary to win over the generals, there are soldiers in their hands, and it is useless for those civil servants to have more hearts and eyes, and they can't make waves.
But if something happened to the ninth princess, it was likely that she would have hated Wei Guogong, who was the general of Dingxi, one of the eight commanders of the empire, with 150,000 male soldiers in his hands, and had been running the southwest for 30 years.
After Hongli left, General Zhu said, "The road is not smooth?"
"Yes, the sand thieves gathered and attacked it. ”
"Hmph!, you can only do things that don't see the light. General Zhu snorted coldly, there are always a few people behind it, damn rats.
Luo Yi said: "The sand thieves are not afraid, the people behind them are very well planned, if it weren't for the help of nobles, this trip would have almost happened." ”
"Oh?"
"The total number of sand thieves is nearly 30,000, but fortunately they have not gathered, although the combat power is not worth mentioning, if it drags on for a long time, it will be a big trouble. Luo Yi said.
Zhu Chongjiuyi frowned, he has been operating in the southwest for thirty years, and he knows very well how many sand thieves there are in the desert, and it is only 100,000 when he is full, and he is still scattered in the big desert, and the relationship between them is also extremely complicated, if the place is not big enough, they can break their heads by themselves.
It was too unexpected to be able to accumulate 30,000 sand thieves at a time, and the people behind this really had some ability. He knew the combat power of the Yulin Army, and if he didn't have a wedding convoy, even if he couldn't kill more than 30,000 sand thieves, he would be fine.
There are nine princesses here, in the face of so many sand thieves, to be able to get here safely, even Zhu Chongjiu is very curious, how did he do it. Most of the sand thieves are ignorant, but after all, there are 30,000 people, and there will always be guys with long heads, who can drag Luo Yi to death with just one drag.
As for the nobles mentioned by Luo Yi, it is even more strange, the southwest desert, there are no states and no mansions, except for the surroundings of Dingjun City, where do the nobles come from?
Luo Yi didn't talk nonsense, and told him what he had experienced, not saying that he was a secret master, nor saying that he was not, and he had General Zhu to judge. This is a common practice in the military, only talking about the military situation, and not stretching out your hand to command indiscriminately.
"This person ...... Good. ”
"Come, quickly adjust three thousand light horses, follow the golden ancient road to the east, and go to meet the caravan. ”
Zhu Chongjiu didn't make up his mind, but he sent 3,000 light horsemen, this attitude was already very clear, and he attached great importance to it. You must know that his own son entered the forty-eight countries of the plateau, and he only brought 3,000 light horsemen.
"General, what happened to Brother Zhu Fushi?" Luo Yi asked, the southwest has been stable for thirty years, and there are very few wars, and even if there is, it is a trivial matter of killing thieves and thieves.
The forty-eight countries of the plateau, which sounds like a lot, are actually all upper countries, and the forty-eight countries together have a population of less than 10 million. If it weren't for the fact that these forty-eight countries are located on the plateau, and there is a suffering from qi diseases on the plateau, Great Chu would have sent troops to destroy these forty-eight countries, after all, the forty-eight countries occupy the golden road, so that the caravan of Great Chu can only go to Dingjun City, and the road to the west is in the hands of these forty-eight countries.
Dingjun City, also known as Dingjun Border City, Border City, refers to the border city. There are five major legions on the border of Great Chu, with a total of nine border cities, which are commonly known as nine borders.
In the southwest, there is only one border city, that is, the Dingjun City. With Zhu Chongjiu's ability, in the past 30 years, it has been operated like an iron bucket. Although it was impossible to go up to the plateau and destroy the forty-eight countries, no one in the forty-eight countries dared to provoke the Dingxi army.
Zhu Fu dared to take only 3,000 light horsemen and go deep into the 48 countries of the plateau, so he knew that the relationship between the Dingxi Army and the 48 countries was quite harmonious, at least there was not too much hostility.
"Night raids, fire attacks, assassinations. General Zhu said it extremely succinctly.
Luo Yiyi frowned: "The whole army is annihilated?"
With his understanding of the Dingxi Army, although the equipment is not as good as Yulin, the actual combat ability is still above the Yulin Army, after all, it is a border army, and there are more opportunities to fight than the Yulin Army. Without 3,000 light horsemen in a battle, even if it is a sneak attack at night, plus a fire attack, it is impossible for no one to escape.
"Three hundred alive, with twelve national armor weapons, and a living mouth. Zhu Chongjiu said disdainfully.
Fuck, who are the fools? Night raids, fire attacks, and assassinations, 300 people came back alive, and they also brought back the armor and blades of the twelve kingdoms, and they even had live mouths, and the dirty water was poured too hard.
If it's just this battle, it doesn't explain any problems, and if the sand thieves attack the Nine Princesses' marriage convoy are linked, this problem is a bit big.
Collusion inside and outside, killing the general's son-in-law outside, and robbing the nine princesses of the royal family inside, is this a rebellion?
Luo Yi is a relatively pure general, after all, he is still young and does not know much about politics. But he also understood that as long as he robbed the Ninth Princess, there were too many ways to embarrass General Zhu, and this was to force him to raise troops?
Obviously, the person behind it still has a backhand, and with Luo Yi's talent, he can't think of it for the time being: "The general thinks that there is a follow-up to this matter?"
"There must be, I can't figure it out for the time being. Zhu Chongjiu said, after his son was stabbed, he cleaned the five cities and sixteen forts, inside and out, and thousands of heads fell to the ground, which is not to vent anger, but to clean up and do it carefully.
He cleaned up a large number of them, but he still didn't find out the problem, and he didn't figure out what the other party's backhand was. There is one possibility that is the most terrifying, but it is only speculation, and it is not yet accurate. He has sent a large number of scouts, and so far no news has returned.
Although it was just a guess, Zhu Chongjiu still did not dare to relax at all, and he had already ordered all departments to start preparing for war and preparing ordnance, food and grass. Dachu is not rich, as a border army, there has been no war for 30 years, and the annual military expenditure is limited, if it is not supported by the border city, it will be even more difficult for Zhu Chongjiu, a general, to do it.
"It's better to ...... Why don't you ask that nobleman, what does the general think?" Luo Yi thought for a moment, couldn't think of an idea, and suddenly remembered Renault, that is likely to be a secret master, maybe there is a way.
"Yes. Zhu Chongjiu also wanted to try how expensive that scheming nobleman was.
"Pass the right general Yang Feng. ”
On Renault's side, seeing that the time was almost up, he ordered to pull out, and the convoy slowly returned to the right path and headed towards Dingjun City.
Not far from the migration road of the triangular ox, Renaud's expression was blank, and his heart was tight. The God of Wealth warned that there were three thousand light horsemen, and they were galloping towards a distance of five hundred miles. The team is moving fast, and at the current speed, it won't take more than a day to get here. With his knowledge of the Great Chu march, this was already the speed of a forced march.
There is danger!
Among the three thousand red boxes, Renault saw a green box, and he was happy to close the camera, isn't this General Luo Yi, it seems that he is too careful, this is the Dingxi Army to protect the convoy?
This General Luo Yi is not in tune, as the guardian general of the wedding convoy, he will come back to pick up the caravan after sending people, is it appropriate to do this?
A day later, the convoy and the cavalry finally met, Tian Shouren and Yu Zhengqing were nervous, and the faces of the three Hu families turned white with fright. Seeing Renault's calm face, he was a little relieved.
"Mr. Lei, what should I do?" asked Tian Shouren.
"It's okay, order the convoy to move on, and Huya can follow me forward. ”
The convoy didn't stop, and continued to move forward, Luo Yi and Yang Feng at the front of the team glanced at each other, with a look of surprise on their faces. In the desert land, the road meets three thousand Dingxi troops, which caravan dares not to give way?
Yang Feng took the big Chu halberd, waved left and right, and the light cavalry was divided into two sides, and the convoy continued to move forward from the two armies under the leadership of the frightened Tian Shouren and Yu Zhengqing. Seeing the general on the horse, he bowed down and did not stop.
Luo Yi and Yang Feng nodded slightly, they were just businessmen, and nodding their heads was already a great face, this face was not for the team to help, but for the noble person who had not yet met.
Tian and Yu, from the initial shock, walked and walked, they felt extremely proud, try to ask the southwest to take the golden road of the gang, who has such a majesty, dare to walk through the army?
At this time, Renault had already hit his horse and came closer, looked at Luo Yi and smiled slightly, but did not answer. In the past few days, he has also figured out what the secret master is, Tian Shouren still knows a lot, this identity is good, Renault likes it.
Of course, Renault knows that he is not a secret master, but he can pretend to be it, and he can still do it, anyway, as long as he doesn't admit it. I've heard that mystics don't want to admit that they're mystics, which is even better.
Yang Feng is the right general, with a noble identity, before he figured out Renault's identity, he was not good at speaking first, and Renault didn't speak, Luo Yi knew that it was time to go out by himself.
stepped forward and beat his chest as a salute: "A certain Luo Yi, a lieutenant general of the Yulin Army, but Mr. Renault in person?"
"Exactly. Renault nodded slightly, brother has known you for a long time, but you haven't seen me.
"Mr. Cherey's life-saving grace. After saying that, it was another salute.
Thirteen days ago, if it weren't for Renault to send Tian Shouye and others to help, even if Luo Yi didn't die, I am afraid it would not be better. The ninth princess can't be lost, and there are too many sand thieves, so it's really hard to say whether they can stick to the welcoming team in Dingjun City.
"It's okay, it's a small matter. Renault smiled indifferently, pretending to be this kind of thing, everyone has played it in school, there is no one who can't, only the quality of the play. This time, Renault felt that he could pretend to be okay. Although it has not yet reached the highest level of invisible pretense, the deliberate ingredients are relatively large, but fortunately, the people of Da Chu are real.
"Mr. Zhu, this is the right general of the Dingxi Army, General Yang Feng, who was ordered by General Dingxi and Wei Guogong to personally lead 3,000 light cavalry to protect the safety of Mr. ”
"I have a heart. "It's not good to pretend this time, Renault doesn't know Da Chu's habits, and feels that it's a bit too much.
