The two of them looked at the surrounding wilderness for a long time with puzzled expressions, and their expressions became increasingly weird.
"Lao Yu, yes, it's the terrain around Lake Baikal.
This is indeed the shore of Lake Baikal, our dragon’s frontier, and I can be sure that I am absolutely right.”
"You are right, it is indeed the shores of Lake Baikal. When His Majesty made clear the country's borders, I led my brothers to the surrounding areas to survey the topography.
Although many years have passed, I still have some vague impressions.
Especially when we were passing by on a mission the year before last, I paid special attention to the surrounding situation again, and I can guarantee that I didn't look at the wrong place.
If you look to the front right, the place where the water is vaguely reflecting light should be Lake Baikal for our dragon.
But since the place is correct, and our marching direction and route are correct, then the lush green east ahead...fuck."
"What's wrong? Lao Su, why are you so surprised? Did you see a beautiful woman or did you see... Oops, I'm so embarrassed."
When Lao Su heard Lao Yu's exclamation that was similar to his own, he held up the telescope in his hand and swallowed a few times.
"Potato seedlings? Sweet potato seedlings? Lao Yu, if I read this general correctly, the ones in front should be...these two kinds of food, right?"
"If I wasn't dazzled, it should be, bah! It's not that it should be, but it absolutely is.
When the imperial court ordered the people in Gyeonggi Province to plant sweet potatoes, my family was one of the first people to plant sweet potatoes. I will never admit my mistake.
There are also potatoes. When Haining Hou brought this kind of food back from the West, our old man was also one of the first people to plant it. I even helped when planting the land!"
"Gudu, Lao Yu, what else did you see?"
"Uh! Tell me what you saw first?"
"This general saw the dragon flag of our dragon, the flags of the Polu Army and the Baizhan Army, as well as the barracks of a battalion of soldiers and a small number of people."
"What I saw is the same, what should I do? Did we wake up and get dazzled? Are you sure this is not the territory of Beifu or Xinfu?
How come the two elite soldiers and horses of the two guards who should be stationed in the north appear in the border area?"
"Lao Yu, you lead your brothers to guard here first. I will go back to the horse immediately to report the situation here to the chief soldier and deputy chief soldier."
"Okay, you go and come back quickly. I will lead two brothers to go there quietly to find out what is going on. Anyway, we will find out the situation first..."
"That's okay. Just be careful. If you encounter any emergency, don't be reckless. Wait for the troops to arrive first."
"I know, if things go wrong, I will use signal flares to warn the other brothers."
"Brothers, immediately turn your horses around and follow me back to meet the commander-in-chief. Drive!"
"We have orders to drive."
After half a day, Liu Chengfeng, a group of great dragon generals and thousands of great dragon cavalry stopped riding and looked forward curiously.
As soon as Lao Su who was following him stopped, he stretched out his hand and pointed towards the green field ahead.
"Commander, generals, look for yourselves to see if there are potato seedlings and sweet potato seedlings in front of you.
The general's eyes are not blind. How can I not recognize the grain grown by our dragon himself?
I may have admitted my mistake, but it’s impossible for all the scout brothers to admit their mistake, right?”
When Liu Chengfeng and the others heard Lao Su's somewhat depressed words, they all took out the telescopes in their bags and put them in front of their eyes to look at the green fields ahead. After a while, everyone put down the telescopes with stunned expressions.
"It seems that they are really potato seedlings and sweet potato seedlings. Not only these, but also the dragon flag of our dragon, and the guard flags of the Polu Army and the Baizhan Army.
There are at most five hundred patrolling scouts, so it is impossible to have such a large formation. What is going on?"
"Yes, it is indeed these two kinds of food. Why do these things appear here?
What kind of changes have taken place in the imperial court during the two years we have been on the mission?"
"We agree, if we are not mistaken, it is indeed these two kinds of food."
Liu Chengfeng listened to the echoes of the generals around him and immediately turned his head to look at the few scouts on the side.
"Brothers, where is your Colonel Yu? He went to the front to investigate the situation and hasn't come back yet?"
"Going back to the general army, Captain Yu and his two brothers went there and still haven't come back yet?"
"What? You haven't come back yet? Did you receive the warning flare from Captain Yu and the others?"
"Back to the commander-in-chief, we have not seen any warning flares. We currently have no idea what the specific situation is ahead."
"That's strange. With Lao Yu..."
Before Liu Chengfeng finished speaking, he was interrupted by the scout's lookout hand.
"Chief Soldier, generals, look ahead. It's our dragon flag, the flag of the Polu army, and hundreds of cavalry running towards us.
The distance is still far, and I can't see who is coming for the time being. I suggest you form a defensive formation immediately."
Liu Chengfeng's mind was trembling, and he instinctively raised the command flag in his hand and waved it quickly.
"The generals listened to the order and ordered the soldiers of the three armies to immediately form formation and wait for the order."
"We have the order."
After all the generals drew their flags and ran towards their own troops, Liu Chengfeng and Song Yang raised their telescopes again and scanned the hundreds of cavalrymen who were several miles away and were rushing toward their side.
"The leader seems to be Zhou...Zhou Baoyu, Uncle Zhou? Next to Uncle Zhou are Yu Xiaowei and others."
"It seems to be General Zhou Baoyu? What is going on?
Shouldn't they be stationed in Xinfu now? Why did they come to the border of Lake Baikal?"
When the two of them were a little stunned, hundreds of dragon cavalry had already rushed dozens of steps away from the dragon envoy, and gradually slowed down.
After Liu Chengfeng confirmed that the visitors were Zhou Baoyu and others, he hurriedly put down the telescope in his hand and turned to look at the messenger on the side.
"The messenger."
"The humble duty is here."
"Immediately order all the generals to stop forming defensive formations. Those coming are our own people, not the enemy."
"It's an order."
After Liu Chengfeng passed the order, he immediately put away the telescope, pulled the reins of his horse and rode towards Zhou Baoyu and the others. When Song Yang saw this, he also pulled the reins of his horse and stayed closely by Liu Chengfeng's side.
.
Although he was sure that the people coming were Zhou Baoyu and his seniors in the army, Song Yang still did not dare to let down his vigilance until he could figure out what happened.
"Uu."
"call"
Zhou Baoyu looked at Liu Chengfeng across from him with excitement. Song Yang and his two brothers immediately got off their horses and walked towards them with a slight bump in their steps.
"I, Zhou Baoyu, the general of the Polu Army, meet His Highness the First Prince, who is a thousand years old."
The five hundred soldiers behind Zhou Baoyu also turned over and dismounted in unison, knelt down on one knee and saluted with their hands on the hilts of swords at their waists.
"We meet His Highness the First Prince, who is a thousand years old."
Liu Chengfeng put away his riding whip and decisively turned over, dismounted and walked over. He bent down, knelt down on one knee and saluted Zhou Baoyu and helped him up.
"Uncle Zhou, hurry up and stop the courtesy, hurry up and stop the courtesy, break the evil and ride the wind."
"Fellow officers and men, you are exempt from courtesy."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
After Zhou Baoyu stood up, he first looked at Liu Chengfeng, then raised his head and scanned the thousands of dragon cavalry in the distance, and couldn't help but grinned a few times.
"It's been two years. In the blink of an eye, it's been two years since you were sent to Tsarist Russia.
Your Majesty has been looking forward to it day and night for two years, and you are finally back."
Hearing Zhou Baoyu mention his father, Liu Chengfeng's expression suddenly tightened, and he looked expectantly at the cheerful Zhou Baoyu in front of him.
"Uncle Zhou, my father, my mother, and all the other mothers and concubines, how are they doing?
In the past two years since His Highness has been away from his homeland, no major changes have occurred in Dalong, right?"
"Your Highness, don't worry. Your Majesty's dragon body and the phoenix bodies of all your empresses are in good health."
Liu Chengfeng suddenly took a long breath and nodded with a grin.
"That's fine, that's fine, as long as the father, the emperor, the queen, and all the mothers and concubines are fine.
By the way, Uncle Zhou, what's going on with you?
Why are you here? And what's going on with those potato seedlings and sweet potato seedlings in front of you? Did you plant them all?"
"Your Highness's insight was planted by the brothers led by me. Now this place can be regarded as half of our dragon's granary!"
"Granary? What do you mean? Your Highness doesn't understand very well."
