Chapter 472: Believe in the County Lord

Although Minglang's whole body is basically unable to move now, his eyes are quite resolute, if Shangguan Li is not clear about his current situation, he would have doubted that he would jump out of bed.

"Lord Shaoyang?"

Shangguan Li nodded.

"Lord ......"

"He's fine."

She knew what the man wanted to know.

"It's not a hallucination, it's not a dazzle, he did come to see you. If the northern border is not broken through in an instant like paper paste, and a large number of barbarians directly take the capital, I estimate that he will not have anything to do in a short time. ”

These words of comfort can be described as quite strange.

Ming Lang has been in the army for a long time, and he didn't understand the joke in her words, but he only understood the sentence "The northern border has been broken through", and his face immediately sank.

"No, unless the whole army of Zhenbei is killed, there can be no loss in the north!"

He said this categorically, and he was a little angry.

Shangguan Li was silent for a moment and did not speak.

"Ahem!"

Seeing that she was silent, Minglang finally realized that he was a little excited. If what he just said was not an illusion, then the sentence he heard should not be false.

"You can trust the county lord of Shaoyang."

Even if he didn't know what Shangguan Li's role was, but the words of the prince were orders.

"It's a subordinate who said the wrong thing, the county lord ......"

"Nope."

Shangguan Li interrupted him expressionlessly.

"You're right, if the people in the Zhenbei army are like you, the northern border will definitely not be broken."

"That's nature."

Minglang said, grinning hard.

Looking at him like this, he shouldn't know that Xuanyuan Ye gave him medicine. But since Xuanyuan Ye had woken him up early, he must have something to tell her.

Sure enough, without waiting for her to ask, Minglang took the initiative.

"County Lord, not only Hebei City has been attacked, but the western border has also been invaded."

"Westside?"

Shangguan Li was shocked.

"What's going on?"

Minglang took a breath, just woke up, he shouldn't even have the strength to speak, sober up to now, half of it is relying on Xuanyuan's hands and feet, and the other half is purely relying on willpower to persevere.

Seeing him like this, Shangguan Li was not in a hurry, it happened that there was still hot water in the house, so while waiting for him to ease up, he started to make a bowl of medicinal tea.

"General Shen had already handed over a fold to the imperial court before, wanting to transfer troops to Hebei, but was rejected by the imperial court."

Guan Li had also heard about this matter, and that incident happened shortly after the news of Xuanyuan's death came out, and with the emperor's character, there would naturally be a lot of hesitation.

However, it is very unkind to veto it without even fully understanding the situation.

Shangguan Li nodded and brought the brewed tea to Minglang's mouth.

Minglang was not pretentious at all, and drank the whole bowl without the slightest hesitation.

"Aren't you afraid I'll put something bad in there?"

"Huh?"

Minglang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

"The prince asked his subordinates to believe in the county lord, and his subordinates believed in the prince."

Shangguan Li: "......"

It's really obedient.

"Whew, I feel so much better, thank you Lord County."

Shangguan Li took the bowl she handed back and said lightly.

"Since you're here, does that mean that what General Shen feared in He Beicheng has come true?"

"Yes."

When you don't smile, your expression will naturally become serious.

"I don't know when the army of Biluolie made an extremely hard boat, trying to cross the river stronger, although General Shen and the brothers in Hebei City have tried their best to resist, but the other side is too numerous to hold out for long."

"It's been two days since I left Hebei, and if I don't get any more support, Hebei will be lost!"

Speaking of this, his eyes were full of worry and anxiety that could not be hidden.

Shangguan Li asked after frowning.

"Two days? As a border city, Hebei should have a lot of carrier pigeons available, right? Compared to fast horses, it is at least about a day faster, so why not choose to fly pigeons? ”

When this question came out, she already had some vague guesses in her heart.

If it's not that they don't want to, it's that they can't......

When Ming Lang heard this, his expression darkened.

"We didn't think about this, as early as the second day after handing out the excerpt, General Shen found out that Bi Luolie might be menacing this time, and immediately sent the book back, but never received a reply."

"If I'm not mistaken, it's been about ten days since the last time the emperor rejected the transfer of troops, right?"

"yes."

Minglang suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth, and there was anger and desolation in his smile.

Looking at his expression, Shangguan Li suddenly thought of a rather amazing possibility.

"You mean, since then, you have tried all kinds of ways to contact the capital, but they have all failed?"

Minglang suddenly took a few breaths, as if he remembered something bad.

He closed his eyes and nodded vigorously.

At the same time as the flying pigeon sent the message, General Shen sent a messenger soldier, on the one hand, he sent soldiers, on the other hand, to inform the post station, three prongs, and finally all of them were sunk in the sea. Not only did they not receive the slightest response, but none of the brothers who sent the letter returned. ”

Speaking of which, Shangguan Li already understood what he wanted to say.

Inside the Great Zhou, there are spies who are more than listed!

And the status and power are not ordinarily large, otherwise it would be impossible to intercept the news of the Zhenbei Army.

The clear voice continues.

"General Shen guessed that someone might have deliberately cut off the connection between He Beicheng and the imperial court, so the ordinary means of transmitting messages were no longer available, so he sent me with a team of elite soldiers to rush back to the capital directly from another relatively secret road."

Shangguan Li didn't miss the "first team" in his mouth, and with the injuries on his body, it was easy to imagine how difficult this road was.

Even Minglang, if he hadn't met her, if he hadn't been lucky enough not to have a second infection, it is estimated that he would have been gone now.

The people behind the scenes are not superb.

"By the way, county lord, your subordinates have to report this matter to the emperor as soon as possible and rush to the aid of He Beicheng!"

As he spoke, he struggled to sit up from the bed, but was pressed back by Shangguan Li's hand.

She said in a soothing tone.

"I know General Ming is in a hurry, but not yet. Wait a little longer, don't worry, I will tell the emperor about this as it is. ”

Although Minglang said that he believed in Shangguan Li, after all, he was a person who had never been in contact with him, and it was related to such a major military situation, so he wanted to oppose it.

But the hand on his shoulder was surprisingly strong, and it didn't have the slightest effect when he struggled hard.

Shangguan Li's voice was clear and cold, with a calmness that made people feel reassured.

"Why do you think your prince said that to you?"
