Li Da's face became more and more ugly, cloudy, and he shouted: "Ha San, what he said is the truth?"

Ha San said: "Back to the adult's words, it is indeed the truth. ”

Li Da yelled: "Someone!" Without waiting for the soldiers to enter the tent, Chen Lu quickly picked up the teapot and poured water for Li Da, and gently knocked on the table.

Li Da came to his senses, his anger was still gone, and when he saw that the law enforcement team had entered the account, he shouted: "Drag the two of them out and beat each with twenty military sticks." ”

Chen Lu hurriedly said: "My lord, calm your anger, although my Zicheng still hasn't understood what happened and why he should be punished, but I know that these two generals are going to ride horses and fight." If you beat your ass to pieces, you won't be able to ride a horse or draw a bow. ”

Li Da said: "Eating and drinking in violation of regulations, delaying fighter planes, and not imposing punishments, how can you unify the army?"

Chen Lu said: "Your Excellency can write down these 20 military sticks for the time being, and it will not be too late to carry out the execution after returning to Beijing." ”

Li Da breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, look at Lord Chen's face, spare you for the time being, and if there is any mistake, you will be cut down and retreat." Several people bowed and retired. thanked Chen Lu again and withdrew from the account.

Nalan said: "When I went to mix wine with Wenda, I didn't hold back any good fart." It's strange, how did these two fight so hot?"

In fact, everyone is very strange now, it stands to reason that these two people are not all the way at all.

Li Da asked everyone to get up and said, "I put up with everything else, but I was greedy for a cup and made a mistake." Today, in addition to these few who hit the rat wolves, three more people died, nine horses and two camels died, including three horses that Teller gave to the saint. It's really annoying to me. ”

Chen Lu said: "Adults beware of wounds. He said to the group, "Disperse yourselves, and take turns to sleep for a while, for it is almost dawn." After speaking, he helped Li Da and walked in.

Li Da lay down and motioned for everyone else to stand down. Li Da said: "Lord Zicheng, I can't bear it for a day. ”

Chen Lu said: "My lord, if the marching speed is normal, it will be Yilie in five or six days." I've endured it for so long, and it's not bad for a few days. After that, the two armies met and discussed with Lord Siyan which officers needed to be added in addition to the change of commander. Do you think that's appropriate?"

Li Da said: "Zicheng, we have to come up with an errand and send it back to Beijing." Save yourself from being constrained in the barracks. ”

Chen Lu said: "The Chinese envoy is indeed commanding, and Zicheng admires it. ”

Li Da said: "You also go and hurry up to squint for a while, and you have to hurry." ”

Chen Lu walked to the door, feeling wrong, this Li Da clearly had a countermeasure, and came back, and said with a smile: "The envoy and Zicheng have set up an ambush. ”

Chen Lu smiled and said, "I can't hide anything from you Zicheng." I do have a plan, but it's not mature enough to discuss it with you. ”

Chen Lu said: "That's good, when we get to Yilie, we will see Lord Siyan and discuss together." ”

Li Da said: "No, it doesn't hurt to tell you now." ”

Chen Lu said: "Zicheng listens. ”

Li Da said: "Gongma." ”

Chen Lu suddenly realized, yes, there were a few horses before, and this time there were nine left, Li first sent a letter, and the loyal king Mahamu paid tribute to ten horses, and when it came to Yilie, there must be a few. These have to be sent to the Beijing Division as soon as possible. You can't do it without martial arts. By the way, this man is the best candidate.

Li Da saw that he understood, and said: "Let him take his own soldiers, let Muhe send men and horses, to Turfan, one guard and one guard escort." ”

Chen Lu had to admire from the bottom of his heart, worthy of being an old bureaucrat for many years, thinking that things were thorough, and taking down his commander could save Ha San from the embarrassment, and also avoid his suspicion that Li Da was unknown, and he could also go to Beijing to take up a post. That's a lot to do.

Chen Lu asked: "Is there a candidate for the commander of the army?"

Li Da glanced at him, meaning why did you forget, didn't you discuss it? Chen Lu nodded.

Li Da asked, "Do you see anything wrong?"

Chen Lu saw that it was already on the table today, so he simply brought it out, so he said: "No, it's just Wenda, he is too good at stirring up." ”

Li Da said: "The envoy has a selfish intention, so he must not be able to hide it from you, and the envoy is also afraid that he will return to Beijing and talk nonsense, after all, he is from the Jinyi Guard, and you know who their commander is, and this Liu Dashuai is not a big person." Zicheng, please don't laugh. ”

As an old bureaucrat, being able to say this and judge the important ministers of the imperial court can be said to be really confident in him Chen Lu. For such a long time, Chen Lu had never heard him praise or disparage the imperial court.

Chen Lu was greatly moved, and said sincerely: "How can it be? How can Zicheng not understand that the adults have a deep heart for Zicheng? People are far away from the rivers and lakes, how can anyone not be worried and fearful? None of us are saints. ”

Li Da said: "It's good to understand. This time, let him go back to Beijing with Ha San. Chen Lu nodded and retired.

When everyone left the camp in the morning, they found that there were no houses in the vicinity at all, and it turned out that these rat wolf monsters were making trouble. The brigade marched northwest along the river. It's also a post road, but it's rugged.

However, this river has nine meanders, and you can still see it after walking through a section. Everyone saw that there were some houses here, but they suffered a loss yesterday, and they didn't dare to believe it casually.

But the difference here is that there are many pedestrians on the road, so everyone is relieved. Many more masked women were also seen. I know that I am getting closer and closer to the country of Saar.

Everyone rested for half an hour at noon, drank horses and ate dry food, continued the march, and gradually entered the mountain stream and valley again. There are also many houses here.

As the weather got hotter, most of the pedestrians were women, and a woman with a child asked the soldiers of the mission for some water. The soldiers saw that it was a beautiful woman, and they all vied for her to drink.

The farther west they went, the more crowded they became, and many of the women walked in groups, looking at the Celestial Empire procession and pointing. At the right time, everyone and the river met again. The outpost reported that the river was flowing southward, and Li Da ordered that camp be set up on the north bank.

The sun had not yet set, everything was quickly arranged, and when it was time to enter the shift, dinner had already been eaten.

At this moment there were several cannon shots, a large flag was erected on the opposite bank, and after a while a tent was erected. The big flag is written on it. Looks like we've just set up camp. There is nothing unusual about this, which is often encountered on the march.

However, it was the first time that the mission had met since it came out of Suzhou, and they all found it very interesting, and of course, they also felt a little more secure.

After eating, the soldiers looked to the opposite bank, and their camp was brightly lit, with three steps and one post, and five steps and one sentry. Exceptionally, they found that there were women in the camp, which was rare.

Half an hour later, someone came out of the camp and shouted to this side by the river: "Are you from the Celestial Empire?"

The sentry on the arrow tower replied yes. They asked the sentries to speak a few words of Chinese. The sentry complied, and the man went back. Ha San saw it in his eyes and was relieved, they didn't believe in the Celestial Empire Mission.
