Without too many surprises, the Northern Army chose to retreat overnight.

Helian Qingshan did not immediately pursue after learning the news, but first methodically ordered his soldiers to treat the wounded and bury the dead.

Then the meritorious deeds are rewarded, and all are recorded.

He summoned Murong Ke into the tent and whispered a few words to him in his heart.

Murong Ke's face was excited, and he hurriedly bowed down, "Thank you, General!"

Helian Qingshan shook his head, "If you don't tell your father about this matter, it's just your own thoughts." ”

Murong Ke nodded heavily, "Understood!"

"Go ahead. ”

Helian Qingshan waved his hand, looked at Murong Ke's distant back, and lit a letter that had been written for Murong Ke to bring to his father, and watched it burn to ashes.

Secretly, it's so dangerous, if you want to take it out, there will be a big hidden danger in the future.

Murong Ke, who had successfully completed the task assigned by his father, ordered 10,000 Youyun Prefecture sergeants, and with the good memories of this battle, he went straight to Youyun City in Youyun Prefecture in high spirits.

Helian Qingshan left 5,000 Youyunzhou sergeants to deal with unfinished matters, so he took the remaining 30,000 people in his spare time, and with the prepared dry food, he caught up with the pace of the northern army.

Nearly a month ago, the Beiyuan army, which failed in the southern expedition, also returned to its homeland in such a gloomy manner.

At that time, the complacent Huang Daxing and Du Ruoyan led 20,000 people to fall behind each other, like herdsmen driving sheep back to the pen, watching the enemy go away and recovering lost territory all the way.

Now it was their turn to look at the pursuers behind them in fear, and move forward in despair.

Helian Qingshan silently controlled the speed of the entire team, neither near nor far.

As long as the Northern Army of the Great Duan Expedition tried to take away the spoils of war, he would make a feint.

After going back and forth, Huang Daxing and Du Ruoyan also understood what that meant, and ran away with their heads in their hands.

Not only did he not bring any loot, but he even threw down a lot of baggage in order to speed up the march.

In this way, the two armies passed through Xiongzhou in silence.

In front of Yinyang Pass, Huang Daxing decisively turned around and lined up, and Du Ruoyan led a small team of people to the city to lead the troops to respond.

Helian Qingshan stopped and sighed in his heart, knowing that he couldn't do anything.

Although these two people were defeated, they really deserved to be called a famous general.

Seeing the remnants of the Northern Army retreat to the Yinyang Pass, hundreds of Beiyuan hostages were left at the gate of the city.

It seems to be a silent thank-you or reward.

"Sending you a thousand miles, do you have to say goodbye in the end?"

Helian Qingshan sneered.

The captured hostages rushed towards their own troops.

Among them, there are many big names such as city lords and guards in various cities.

There's even a little surprise hidden in it.

Helian Qingshan looked at the thief-eyed man who was brought in front of him by the guards, and said with a smile: "You are Hagu?"

"Lord Timuda sent his minister Hagu to meet the general. ”

Hagu made a big salute directly.

Helian Qingshan's eyes froze, and his voice suddenly became cold, "I have only heard of His Majesty's ministers, how can I come from the ministers of others!"

Hagu was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic, "The general forgives the general." In the end, there will be unintentional mistakes, unintentional mistakes. ”

Helian Qingshan seemed to be a little disheartened, "I also know that these things can be changed in a day or two." Get up!"

Hagu trembled and got up, only to hear Helian Qingshan say again: "Your Majesty's will for the defense of these border cities will come down soon, and you, the guard, will definitely not be able to do it." But this meeting is fate, I will take you to the Immortal City to meet someone. ”

Hagu was overjoyed, if he could climb the high branch of General Helian, it would be much better than following Master Timuda!

hurriedly thanked him, and then asked, "I wonder who the general wants to take the last general to meet?"

Helian Qingshan looked at him with a smile on his face, "Wu Ti." ”

Hagu tilted his head and fainted, and a stream of yellow fluid oozed from his thighs.

------------------

Tianjing City seems to be so stable forever, because there are towering city walls, complete defenses, and Chang'an Sword Immortals;

It seems that it will always be so prosperous, just because there is a royal palace there, so there are coveted powers and interests.

The core of these powers and interests is the Yongding Emperor of the Daduan Dynasty, Yang Hao.

Recently, he has been living a good life and is in a good mood.

With the end of the Battle of Zhulu Town, this war between the north and the south was destined to end with the victory of Daduan.

What he didn't expect was that the ambitious Xue Lu actually lost his life because of this.

This made Yang Hao remember the letter of state again, looked at the sentence "Raise millions of troops on the clouds", and laughed heartily.

Regarding that battle, the reward on the bright side had already been given, and Han Feilong, who was the first to take the lead, stepped over the two of them in one step, and was named the Marquis of Weiyuan and the general of the hussars.

In the case of the old age of the great general Hu Luguang, Han Feilong became the de facto first person in the Daduan military.

The flying dragon is in the sky, unstoppable.

The reward in secret, Yang Hao did not forget.

For Qin Li, the master of the Tsing Yi Pavilion who deigned to be Han Feilong's guard, Yang Hao gave enough respect this time.

In addition to the usual elixirs and treasures, he not only gave away the "Tsing Yi Pavilion" plaque inscribed by himself, but in fact gave up the penetration of Tsing Yi Pavilion and allowed him to change Qingyin Pavilion back to Tsing Yi Pavilion.

Moreover, a mountain was given not far from the sect of Tsing Yi Pavilion and handed over to Tsing Yi Pavilion for its own use.

The two former Four Saints, who are now masters of the Merge Dao Realm, have also received care from His Majesty.

Gold and silver treasures, fictitious titles, and more importantly, a lot of beautiful maids.

Beitangwang and Nangong Lin twisted their beards and smiled, feeling warm for His Majesty's intimacy.

At the same time, Yang Hao also sent an edict to the two, allowing them to establish their own Jianghu forces, but the precondition was ......

I didn't say it, but everyone understood it.

It's like a good harvest, and everyone can laugh at it.

On Huxia Street, there have never been many idlers who dare to come and wander around, because there is a yamen on this small street.

The Yamen of the Daduan Military Department.

Therefore, when the guards under the steps at the entrance of the military department heard those noisy sounds, they didn't take it to heart at all.

I didn't expect that these people would dare to turn into Huxia Street like this!

Suddenly, a guard with a gun stepped forward quickly, and with a gesture of his hand, he pointed at the group, which was mostly young men.

"What are you doing! Don't you know that this is the Yamen of the Ministry of War? Fuck off!"

In the end, with a chic wave of the hand, it is the grandeur that belongs to these powerful places.

The crowd froze, and after only a moment, a louder roar erupted.

"I'm looking for you shit!"

"You don't care if the Beiyuan barbarians pee on our heads, show off their might in front of their own people!"

"You are so powerful, why don't you go to the northwest to catch up with the barbarians of the Northern Abyss!"

With these roars, the crowd rushed up, and before the guard could react, he was kicked to the ground and subjected to severe beatings from the public.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining guards at the gate immediately hid inside the gate and closed it tightly.

The angry crowd banged on the door, and the bang was the sound of boiling public opinion.

It seems that not everyone has forgotten about the Northwest.

The officials of the military department all came out of their public houses and stared blankly at the gate.

The voice in my ears seems to be a little illusory, this is the military department!

Some of them heard the shouts clearly, and were silent, then glanced in the direction behind the lobby in the middle, sighed, and turned back to the table.

In the room behind the lobby, Tan Lun, the old secretary of the military department, glanced at Zheng Xuan, the anxious squire of the military department, and waved his hand lightly, "What should you do!"

He stroked his beard lightly and shook his head, revealing a smile that was unclear whether it was bitter or sarcastic.

"Drive, drive, drive!"

A fast horse rushed to Huxia Street, and immediately the rider in a red coat with two small triangular flags on his back looked at the crowd outside the yamen, was stunned for a moment, and then immediately stopped shouting: "Six hundred miles of military urgency! Give way quickly!"

Some people subconsciously want to open their mouths and scold angrily as before, and then beat them with their hands, but fortunately, there are people around them who are not overwhelmed by the blood, and they quickly pull their sleeves.

What does it mean to rush the military situation for 600 miles, there are still people who know how to do it.

The crowd obediently got out of the way and let the red-clad messenger enter the gate.

Then he continued to bang on the reclosed door and curse again.

Proportionality is important at all times.

If you have a good sense of proportion, you won't be able to make a big deal.

Seeing that the red-clothed messenger had just entered, less than half a pillar of incense, the door of the military headquarters was slammed open from it.

An old man dressed in official uniform stood inside the door.

I don't know who shouted, "This is that old scholar!"

The crowd immediately squeezed in, and was about to cross the line and break into the yamen.

Tan Lun, the secretary of the military department, has white hair, and his figure has gradually shrunk.

But being alone, in the face of this surging crowd, he didn't let a single step.

He shouted in a deep voice: "Now that the emergency military information has been delivered, this official needs to present it to His Majesty, who dares to stop it! If the military plane is missed, it will be punished as treason!"

He stared widely, "Now, get out of the way!"

After this roar, he stepped forward, as if the people in front of him did not exist.

The crowd was stunned by this momentum, and they parted in a daze, watching Lao Shangshu walk out of the yamen, board the carriage that was waiting in a hurry, and gallop towards the palace.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and it seems that today's commotion doesn't seem to be that flavor.

I don't know who took the lead, and the crowd dispersed silently.

On the side of the crowd, Wang Siwazi held a broken bowl and yawned boredly.

In the Imperial Palace, the Imperial Study.

Except for the separate discussion with Xun Wei, Yang Hao basically does not take others to the side hall, most of them are in the imperial study.

At this moment, he was sitting on the soft collapse of the imperial study, and sitting in front of him was Wei Hongyi, who had shiny hair and a prominent head.

Wei Hongyi's two thick lips flew up and down, "Back to Your Majesty, the interrogation of that junior who ran the hall has been completed, he is indeed just a personal word, and there is no one else's instructions." ”

Yang Hao was silent, Wei Hongyi's heart was cold, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Joint interrogation with the Zongren Mansion, there are no follow-up clues on King Jin's side." ”

Yang Hao continued to be silent, in the late autumn season, Wei Hongyi's sweat was left one by one, "Before entering the palace, Si Wencao already has information, there may be some young students and some idle men who go to the Yamen of the Ministry of War to demonstrate, for the sake of the northwest military situation, Your Majesty, what do you see?"

Every moment of waiting was painful, but fortunately, Yang Hao finally spoke.

The corners of Yang Hao's mouth tugged slightly, and the two delicately trimmed mustaches moved, and he snorted coldly, "A group of fools, rats are blind!"

"Leave them alone, nothing will happen. Now it is nothing more than provoking our patience. ”

After listening to Yang Hao's instructions, Wei Hongyi hurriedly responded, and then reported some other situations to Yang Hao and prepared to retreat.

Suddenly, a eunuch hurriedly ran to the door and whispered: "Your Majesty, Lord Tan of the Ministry of War asks to see you." ”

Yang Hao smiled, "This Tan Lun, who is so old, is still so unbreathable, really, let him in." ”

He looked at Wei Hongyi again, "Don't leave yet, listen together." ”

Tan Lun hurriedly walked in, glanced at Wei Hongyi in slight surprise, then lowered his head in amusement, and hurriedly bowed down, "Tan Lun, the secretary of the Ministry of Ministers, greets Your Majesty!"

Yang Hao smiled and waved his hand, "Okay! I know everything, what's the matter, what's the matter, what's there to panic about!" ”
