Chapter 737 Before March, there will be big changes!
Chu Ran didn't say a word in the middle and listened to Gu Ling finish the story, which made Chu Ran sigh.
"General Gu Ling, I didn't expect that what happened in the mountains and forests, I saved you, but I hurt you again!"
Chu Ran looked at Gu Ling with remorse in his eyes: "If the old man Bai Mo had never seen you and me together, the young prince would not have been able to massacre your whole family!"
"General Chu Ran, don't say that!"
As soon as he heard this, Gu Ling wanted to stand up again, but was pushed down by Chu Ran.
Gu Ling said excitedly: "General Chu Ran saved my life, it was a great act of justice! I am very grateful! As for my people... they are all because of the cruelty of the young prince, and it has nothing to do with General Chu Ran!"
While the two were talking, the snacks Chu Ran ordered to prepare were also brought over.
Gu Ling looked at the snacks in front of him and swallowed dryly several times.
Licking her chapped lips, she gritted her teeth and never ate.
"General Gu Ling, no matter how much hatred you have, you have to eat it to your heart's content. From now on, you will stay in my army!"
"Thank you, General Chu Ran!"
After Gu Ling said this, he started eating with big mouthfuls.
After he had eaten and drank enough, Chu Ran spoke again, slightly cupped his hands, and said: "I may not have any high-ranking officials here. The general will command a hundred thousand soldiers for the time being. I have wronged General Gu Ling!"
"Command one hundred thousand troops?"
Hearing these words, Gu Ling's body trembled slightly.
At the beginning, when he was in the Northern Xinjiang Palace, he could only command 80,000 troops at most. Unexpectedly, when he first came to Chu Ran, Chu Ran asked him to command 100,000 troops!
This made Gu Ling feel hot in his heart and he was very moved: "General, I... I used to be from the Northern Xinjiang Palace, you..."
Before Gu Ling could finish speaking, Chu Ran raised his hand to suppress Gu Ling's words.
"I have known about General Gu Ling's ability to command troops as early as the Northern Xinjiang Palace. I believe in the general's character even more. No need to say more!"
After Chu Ran finished speaking, he called Luo An directly without waiting for Gu Ling to speak again.
"Luo An, this is the famous General Gu Ling of the Northern Xinjiang Palace. He has now returned to our army. From now on, his status in the army will be equal to mine!"
When Gu Ling heard this, his whole body was so moved that he trembled.
But as a surrendered general, he knew that he did not dare to be on the same level as Chu Ran, so he quickly said: "General, I..."
But his words were interrupted again by Chu Ran: "No need to say more, I just said yes!"
After saying that, he shouted to Luo An: "Luo An, didn't you hear what I said!"
"As you command General!"
Upon seeing this, Luo An quickly bowed to accept the order, and at the same time, he also cupped his fists and saluted Gu Ling: "Commander Luo An, pay your respects to General Gu Ling!"
"How dare you surrender to a general like this!"
Gu Ling was in a state of being flattered.
"Someone is coming!"
At this time, Chu Ran called out to the outside of the hall, and soldiers immediately entered the hall: "Take General Gu Ling to bathe and change clothes!"
"It's the general!"
The soldier immediately made a gesture of invitation to Gu Ling: "General, please!"
Gu Ling nodded to Chu Ran and followed the soldier away.
Chu Ran reminded again: "General Gu Ling will have a good rest today!"
"Thank you, General Chu Ran!"
Gu Ling took a deep breath and walked out of the hall with the soldiers.
After both of them left, Luo An leaned into Chu Ran's ear and said with a smile: "How are you doing, boss? Can you cooperate well?"
"Hahaha!"
Chu Ran couldn't help laughing a few times at this time.
But soon, he recovered and looked at Luo An and said: "It's all trouble, but this Gu Ling's ability to lead troops is absolutely outstanding, and what I just said is not empty talk!"
"clear!"
Luo An nodded, he had also heard of Gu Ling's name.
But he didn't expect that Chu Ran would be able to subdue Gu Ling, a famous general in the Northern Xinjiang Palace.
This made him admire Chu Ran from the bottom of his heart.
After Chu Ran's words, Gu Ling was even more grateful to Chu Ran.
It can be said that they have gained another tiger general in their army.
"Are the soldiers and civilians in the city properly settled?"
“It’s all arranged!”
"In this case, order the three armies to rest for a day. At midnight tomorrow, the three armies will march out of Hutian Pass!"
"Take your orders!"
…
Banyun City is one of the three main cities in southern Xinjiang and the closest main city to the Imperial City.
It is only a hundred miles away from Jingshan Pass.
After withdrawing from Jingshan Pass, the army of the Northern Xinjiang Prince's Palace directly entered Banyun City.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, the city of Banyun City has high walls and strong walls. No matter how fierce the imperial army's offensive is, even with the last generals present, it is impossible to break through Banyun City."
A general stood proudly in front of the young prince, his iron-blooded eyes full of desire for war.
But the young prince just shook his head gently and said: "Send the order, rectify the troops and horses, and withdraw from Banyun City in an hour!"
"Retreat...exit Hatanyun City?"
Hearing these words, the general was a little dumbfounded: "Your Highness, why do you want to withdraw from Banyun City!"
A soldier who came with him also shouted with confusion: "When we captured Hatanyun City, we lost a lot of soldiers. Is this military order from Your Highness to return Hatanyun City to the imperial court?"
"Did I not speak clearly enough, or did you not hear clearly?"
Facing the general's doubts, a cold light suddenly flashed in the young prince's eyes.
"Listen... listen clearly!"
When the general saw this, he did not dare to say anything more.
The young prince frowned and shouted in a low voice: "If you hear clearly, go quickly!"
The two soldiers, who looked proud just now, immediately lowered their heads and reluctantly walked out of the city lord's mansion.
After this news spread throughout the three armies, the morale of the three armies also dropped to the extreme.
This made the young prince feel a little hesitant in his heart, whether he should withdraw his troops or not!
Morale is a thing that is gone when it is gone.
It would be very difficult to mention it again!
What's more, facing the imperial army, he is not invincible!
Chu Ran and Luo Tianwei were not enough to make Ji Feibai so embarrassed!
"Brother, this is a strategy of retreating in order to advance!"
At this time, Ji Menghe slowly walked to the young prince's side and said: "The trip to the Imperial City has made me see through the current situation in the Imperial City!"
"If we send troops again, the entire imperial court will be united to deal with us, and we will pay a huge price!"
"In this way, even if we finally overthrow the royal rule, what will be left to us will definitely be a weak and broken empire. With few soldiers and generals, the Beimang army will definitely take the opportunity to invade. Even if we succeed in changing the dynasty, we will not be able to survive.
How to resist the iron hoof of Beimang?"
"In that case, we will only face the disaster of destruction as soon as we establish the dynasty!"
She has already said these words, and this time she reiterates them for the second time, which also strengthens the young prince's belief.
"Meng He, how can I not understand what you are saying? I'm just a little unwilling!"
The young prince shook his head gently.
"Don't worry, brother, I can guarantee that as long as we withdraw our troops and give the court some time, there will be major changes in the court within three months!"
Ji Menghe's eyes were filled with confidence, and she said: "The prince will never tolerate Chu Ran and the general. When there is internal strife in the court, I, the Prince of Northern Xinjiang, will send troops again, and the introduction will be absolutely foolproof!"
"That's all, retreat!"
The young prince finally made a decisive decision.
