In the big tent, Li Fei Shouyu took a sip of hot tea, frowned and said to Li Fei Yuanli and Xu Zongran: "Why did you think of taking the northern route?"
Li Fei Yuanli and Xu Zongran looked at each other. Li Fei Yuanli asked puzzledly: "Is there any problem with the northern line?"
Li Fei Shouyu nodded, "Last autumn, the Geluolu people invaded the Yili Valley and occupied half of the valley land."
"A Geluolu people from the Pogo tribe?" Li Fei Yuanli asked.
Li Fei Shouyu nodded, "The three Tuqishi tribes were annexed by the Geluolu people. The Serbs and Wusu people could not defeat them, so they were forced to move eastward. This time the Geluolu people moved southward very strangely. They happened to be with
I don’t know if Broken Leaf’s loss of synchronization is supported by external forces.”
"Then the Beiting Army wants to send troops?" Xu Zongran asked quickly.
"The Geluolu people destroyed the order of Beiting and invaded the land of Tang Dynasty. Of course Beiting will send troops! I was planning to send 10,000 troops next month, and you came?"
"Have you asked the emperor for instructions?" Xu Zongran asked again.
"I have already asked for permission. The emperor agrees with my plan. The Geluolu people must be severely damaged."
Xu Zongran and Li Feiyuanli discussed for a while, and Xu Zongran said: "If necessary, we can send troops to assist!"
Li Fei Shouyu leaned forward and said gratefully: "It depends on the situation! If necessary, I will definitely ask you for help!"
After resting for five days, the army continued to set off westward. At the same time, the 10,000-strong navy, led by Li Fei Shouyu, the governor of Beiting, also set out from Tingzhou and joined the main force of the Tang army in the westward expedition.
The army marched toward the Yili Valley in mighty force.
In Samarkand, Kang State, Li Chenghua finished his investigation in Kang State and prepared to return to Suiye.
She has found out the truth. Anga and others were assassinated and killed by the silver saint Kang Mira. Kang Mira's confidant maid was caught by the internal guards, and she confessed everything honestly.
But there is no use in finding out, not to mention that the Saint of Light, Jinshan Ling, has long known that it was Kang Mira who did it, but Kang Mira has wings and cannot touch her at all.
Six of the ten departments of the Saint are controlled by Kang Mira, Jin Shanling controls four departments, and the only real power department controlled is the Ministry of Finance.
As the investigation deepened, Li Chenghua discovered more things that shocked her. She discovered that a huge crisis was brewing in the Sogdian region, the increasingly fierce power struggle within Zoroastrianism, and the six-nation group's influence on the Holy Sisters.
A ruthless attack, and even the existence of the Dashi force was discovered.
The Dashi forces currently exist in the Sogdian region in the form of chambers of commerce. They have learned the lessons of the last failure and no longer use religion to promote their power. Instead, they use commercial trade to infiltrate. In Sogdian countries, Dashi merchants can be seen everywhere
figures, as well as the unique Dashi caravan guards, which are actually small-scale armies. They followed the merchants to every corner of the river area, began to station and train, and provided security protection.
These dangerous signs may have been known to all Sogdian countries, but they were ignored by the rulers of each country. The rulers were more concerned with how to deal with the invasion of the Holy Sisters.
Once the Holy Sisters collapse, a political storm is likely to break out in the entire Transoxiana region, including wars and conflicts between Zoroastrian sects, and the Food Army is also likely to take advantage of the situation.
Li Chenghua decided to return to Suiye as soon as possible. In addition, she also persuaded Jin Shanling to allow her to take away more than 3,000 Tang girls.
The day before leaving, Li Chenghua came to Daguangming Temple and met Jinshan Ling, the Saint of Light.
In a red hall burning with flames, Jin Shanling was wearing a fiery red robe and sitting alone on a large chair.
After more than ten years of vicissitudes, she is no longer the Jinshanling she was back then, but an extremely mature and rational strong woman with ruthless methods and a heart as hard as iron. Her eyes are always sharp and calm, looking at the person sitting opposite
Li Chenghua, a rare smile finally appeared on her cold face.
Her voice was very soft, "Is Li Dutong going back now?"
Li Chenghua nodded, "The mission is over. It's time to go back. Thank you to the leader for your hospitality these days."
Jin Shanling said calmly: "Li Dutong must have also felt that the storm in Samarkand is coming!"
Li Chenghua was silent for a moment and asked: "The leader must let Kang Mira be the golden saint?"
Jin Shanling sighed and said: "This is no longer up to me. The Illuminati and the Qi Cheng Daughters support her. If I don't agree, it means a bloody coup.
If it really doesn't work, the Saints' Society will return to its original state, and the Saints' Society and the Illuminati will separate again, bridges will return to bridges, roads will return, and the current sectarian crisis will be peacefully resolved."
"According to our investigation, a series of things may have happened recently that will be detrimental to the leader. We recommend that the leader temporarily leave Samarkand."
Jin Shanling smiled and said: "Thank you Li Dutong for reminding me. What should come will eventually come. I have already dedicated myself to the God of Light. I have never been afraid of life and death. I only ask Li Dutong to do one thing for me. I am very grateful."
All!"
"Master, please speak!"
Jin Shanling turned around and waved, "Come out!"
A small door opened, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy came out. He had a handsome appearance and pure eyes. Li Chenghua was a little stunned. This boy looked familiar.
Jin Shanling smiled at him and said, "Go and change your clothes! You will leave with this relative later, and she will protect you."
Tears welled up in the young man's eyes, he nodded silently, turned around and went into the house.
Jin Shanling sighed and said: "He is my son, his name is Li Fang. He is my biggest secret. He has been pretending to be a woman and living in the Daguangming Temple. But this secret was discovered by Kang Mira six months ago, and they
I found the doctor who delivered my baby, and almost overnight, all my subordinates betrayed their relatives."
Li Chenghua nodded silently. She knew that saints were not allowed to get married. Their chastity belonged to the God of Light, and almost all of them were virgins for life. This was the iron law of the Saints. Jinshan Ling actually violated this rule. No wonder that within the Saints
They no longer support her.
"Master, let me take him away!"
Jin Shanling nodded, "His father is in the Tang Dynasty. You are very familiar with it. His father was the first governor of Hezhong in the Tang Dynasty. Li Dutong should know who he is!"
Li Chenghua was so shocked that he couldn't open his mouth for a long time. No wonder she thought this young man looked familiar. He turned out to be the son of the Holy Emperor, but how could it be possible?
Jin Shanling smiled again and said: "Your emperor has ten caliphate gems, one for each of his wives. The red gem inside belongs to me. Bring the child to his father! He knows very well that this is
His son."
"Master, come with me!"
Jin Shanling smiled faintly and said: "If I follow you now, I would have gone back to Datang with him back then. Here is the foundation I created, and I will never let those who oppose me get it. The only thing I am worried about is this
Son, but the God of Light heard my call and sent Li Dutong here."
She took out a letter and handed it to Li Chenghua, "Give this letter to your emperor for me. Everything I want to say is in the letter."
At this time, the small door opened, and a beautiful girl in black walked out. Li Chenghua stared at her for a long time before he recognized that it was the young man just now. Not only was he handsome, but his temperament was also that of a woman.
Jin Shanling hugged his son tightly, took the golden ring and three swords from his neck and put it on him, and said: "Follow General Li! She will take you to find your father."
"Mom, come with me!"
The young man spoke for the first time, and it turned out to be very pure Chinese.
Li Chenghua sighed. She knew why this boy's identity was discovered. He could hide it when he was a child. Now that he has begun to grow, the traces of a man are getting heavier and his voice has become thicker. It is difficult to hide it.
Jin Shanling smiled and said to his son: "As long as you leave safely, mother will not have any worries. She can fight with them without arms. Mother is a saint of light. Nothing will happen to her. We, mother and son, will definitely be reunited in the future."
The young man nodded slightly, and Jin Shanling shook the golden bell on the table, and several saintly female guards came in. Jinshan Ling said to them: "Take them out of the Golden Gate."
There are various buildings around Daguangming Temple, which are very dense and complex. There are five secret passages in the buildings, called gold, wood, water, fire and earth.
Li Chenghua didn't know how long he walked, how many doors he walked through, how many hidden alleys he walked through, and how many houses he passed. When they came out of a gate, they discovered that the Daguangming Temple was actually two miles away.
That afternoon, she led 300 internal guards and 3,400 abducted Tang women to leave Samarkand on camels. Most of the team were girls, but there were also grown-up women.
After walking for two days, they encountered a thousand Tang Army cavalry led by Tang Army General Wei Chi Xi'an. This cavalry was specially sent to meet them.
