Qiang wiped the sweat on his face and said: "How could a villain trust the general?
Li Luo smiled and said: "Master Qiang is a guest from afar, and he is staying in the camp now. I will discuss it with Master Qiang after the court replies."
Qiang Mo rolled his eyes and said: "I have thanked the general, but my lord is worried that there will be some accidents on the way. Since I have arrived in the general's army, I should send someone to report back to my lord."
"No need, it won't take long for letters to be sent to Yingchou Gorge. Wouldn't it be better if Lord Qiang can stay here with peace of mind and wait until Zhuocheng gets a reply and inform your monarch as well."
Qiang Mo was stunned for a moment, his thoughts suddenly changed, he thanked Li Luo and said no more.
Li Luo ordered Cha Jing to escort Qiang Mo back to the camp, and then sent an order to Liu Ce to cut off Qiang Mo's contact with others and not let the news leak out. Liu Ce accepted the order and left the tent to make arrangements.
After Di Jie waited for Qiang Mo to leave, he smiled and said: "Xuanlou is worthy of being a member of the Dagan royal family. He is so sophisticated in his officialdom. Di is really ashamed."
Li Luo smiled softly and said that he was outrageous.
Yun Wuyan continued: "General, Commander Di, Qiang Mo's entourage did bring a lot of property. After checking the people at the end, the amount was 10% more than what Qiang Mo said, but...
"
"What?" Li Luo asked.
Yun Wuyan's face turned slightly red and he said, "In addition to the property, there are also a hundred women."
Di Jie let out a laugh and said: "This Qiang Mo is indeed not a good man and a believer. He actually bribed the commander-in-chief of the army."
Yun Wuyan saw that Li Luo seemed to be distracted, coughed lightly and called out: "General?"
Li Luo snorted, looked at Di Jie and said, "Uncle, how should I deal with it?"
Di Jie pondered for a moment and said, "Master Jun Wu Er, you can do whatever you want."
Li Luo thought for a while and said: "Put the property in the military warehouse in the camp for the time being and don't let the soldiers know about it. As for these women, let them go to the magic camp. Princess Muchan is ordered to pay more attention to it. When the soldiers in the camp ask, she will say
She was rescued from the slave traders in Yingchou Gorge. You must be careful of these women and don't let them roam around casually. Ask the princess to bring someone under strict supervision."
After a pause, Li Luo continued: "Don't underestimate these women. If there are Xirong spies among them, they will be more difficult to guard against than the Qiang Mo."
"The general will obey the order."
"Also, matters discussed in the military are not allowed to be communicated to outsiders except by the chief generals of each department. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished under military law."
"Yes." All the generals responded in unison.
Di Jie sighed: "Xirong has really figured out the weaknesses of people like Zhuocheng."
Li Luo's eyes darkened, and he sighed and was speechless. Di Jie smiled narrowly and said, "But then again, isn't Xuanlou tempted?"
Li Luo laughed dumbly, showing a little bit of his youthful nature and said: "How could uncle think like this? Xuanlou is also a man."
The generals in the tent burst out laughing after hearing this, and the distance between them and Li Luo became even thinner.
A few days later, news came back from Hui Meng and Bao Huo. They were very moved by Li Luo's proposal and discussed raising troops together to carve up Xirong.
The next day, Li Luo led the six generals Yun Wuyan, Huchajing, Shichong, Helianchengxian, Chili, and Wuta. Most of the army was deployed on Yue cavalry, garrison cavalry, shooting troops, and infantry.
The soldiers of the fifth battalion, totaling 150,000 people, sent out troops on Shuoxi, accompanied by Shen Xiangdong. Generals Di Jie and Liu Ce were left to guard Yingchou Gorge, and the army rushed towards Shuoxi in a mighty manner.
Everyone in Qiang Mo was still in the dark. Qiang Mo tried his best to spread the news, but Liu Ce secretly arranged it, and Qiang Mo didn't find the slightest chance. Di Jie chatted with Qiang Mo from time to time, played chess, and Qiang Mo snooped several times.
Di Jie tried to talk to him, but all the results were fruitless. Qiang Mo was so anxious that he had no choice but to keep smiling. He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles in the camp, unable to sleep or eat well.
Since the army left Yingchou Gorge, it has been in an almost uninhabited area.
The royal family of Xirong was shocked and sent a message to Zhuocheng in a hurry. After spending some money on the girl, Zhuocheng sent a message to Yingchouxia and asked why. Di Jie followed his plan and only said that he had never seen the Xirong envoy and did not know that Xirong had any envoys.
The heart of surrender.
Originally, according to Di Jie's wishes, these people were killed secretly, and it was done perfectly. It was said that they were intercepted and killed by bandits and the like. There were more bandits than others in the Western Regions. They were unaware of them, and no one could say anything.
, but Li Luoyu couldn't bear it and specifically begged for mercy, so Di Jie had no choice but to give up.
After this delay, Li Luo had already reached the outside of Shuoxi City.
When Hui Meng and Bai Huo saw Li Luo sending troops, they stepped up their offensive. Xirong's troops were stretched thin and could hardly send an entire army to stop Li Luo. Only when Li Luo's army was a hundred miles away from Shuoxi, did they send a cavalry force from the city.
, was rushed to death by Huchajing and Helian Chengxian, fled back to Shuoxi in embarrassment, and never dared to leave the city again.
Li Luo led his army to Shuoxi City and set up camp without attacking. Shuoxi sent people into the camp several times to ask for an audience with Li Luo, but Yun Wuyan drove them back.
On the same day, Hui Mongolia defeated the Chen River Valley, and the army entered Pingshachuan and rushed towards Shuoxi. The Fire Worshiping Army also forced back the remaining Xirong army and marched towards Shuoxi.
Autumn has arrived, and the land in the Western Regions has become desolate.
Outside the city, the three armies gathered to besiege Shuoxi. Shuoxi's defenders numbered less than 20,000. They returned to Mongolia and raised an army of 100,000. They also increased their troops by 80,000 to worship the fire. Together with Li Luo's 150,000 troops, the total number was 33,000.
Tens of thousands of troops surrounded Shuoxi.
Each of the three armies attacked one gate, but it was just a test, and no one attacked with all their strength. After a few more days of siege, Li Luo sent a message, inviting the Mongolian commander to pay homage to him. The two armies agreed, and the Mongolian army retreated for three days.
After ten miles, the commanders of the three armies each led two people to the north gate of Shuoxi. It seemed as if there was no one around. It was a pity that Xirong had become a frightened bird and did not dare to send troops out of the city.
Li Luo and Chu Ying'er and Chi Li rushed to the north of Shuoxi, where Huimeng and Baihuo were already waiting for them. The three of them looked at each other and looked at each other.
The Hui-Mongolian coach seemed to be in his forties, with a strong back and a powerful figure, but his eyes were a little slender, and he looked rather sinister.
The leader of the Fire Worshipers is older and far different from the people from Daganzhongfu. In Zhuocheng, you can meet visitors from the Western Regions who look like this from time to time. They have golden beards and are slightly curly. The most eye-catching thing is a pair of eyes.
, turned out to be a dark green color, hidden in the face covered with wind and sand, like a deep pool.
After Chi Li looked at it, he frowned and turned his head to pay attention to the two generals who were accompanying the guards.
Coach Hui Meng and Huo worship looked at Li Luo for a long time. Although there was nothing strange about him, they could not hide the shock in their hearts. Everyone in the world has heard about Li Luo just as well as Luo Guan, but being famous is not as good as meeting him. Now that he sees Li Luo,
But there is no other feeling.
Coach Hui Meng stared at Li Luo, unblinking, his eyes were cloudy and unclear, and the meaning was difficult to understand. On the other hand, Coach Worshiping Fire looked natural, just quite surprised, with a little appreciation, nothing more.
Li Luo bowed calmly and said: "Dangan Li Luo, I've been waiting for you two commanders for a long time, so please don't be offended."
The commander of the fire worshipers laughed and said: "General Li is not late, but we are here early. I, the commander of the fire worshipers, Mu Zong, have the honor to meet General Li. General Li is indeed that hero." The voice was very stiff.
, but fortunately, Li Luo can still understand Da Gan’s words. (To be continued.)
