Chapter 297 Returning to Beijing to report on work
After entering the camp, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The soldiers took off their armor and rested. They gathered with some Paoze brothers who were old acquaintances in the army to have fun. However, Liu Ce was very strict in managing the army. His soldiers were not allowed to disturb the people and behaved upright. His reputation in Yingchou Gorge was growing day by day.
It's so profound that all the merchants and travelers in the past praised it. There has never been any rampage of soldiers in Yingchou Gorge. ? ?? ? w ww．
Liu Ce was surprised when he heard that Li Luo was accompanied by Mu Xiaoxia, but when he saw that Li Luo's expression was as usual, Mu Xiaoxia was also friendly and exchanged a few words, so he was secretly paying attention.
Mu Xiaoxia saw it in his eyes and was not dissatisfied. Such behavior was what a general in the army should do. After entering the camp, he never walked around casually. After a little training, he said goodbye to Li Luo and returned to the camp with Jiuniang.
Go willingly.
Liuyunzhan stayed for a few more days, mostly with the army officers and soldiers in the camp, not knowing what he was thinking.
Li Luo stayed in Yingchou Gorge for seven days, discussing with Liu Ce and Yun Wuyan some changes in the war in Pingsha Valley in recent days. Jie Ketian took advantage of the favorable location on Shuoxi to gather many remnants of the Xirong soldiers, and now there are tens of thousands of them.
Public.
To the east of Shuoxi, Liu Ce is eyeing him, and Xirong is already a vassal state of Dagan. Jie Ketian does not dare to do anything deviant. In the past month or two, he has frequently sent troops and captured many places northwest of Shuoxi. However,
The Hui Meng and Huo worshipers were not kind-hearted. They sent out troops one after another. The Xirong army suffered thousands of casualties and fled back in defeat, losing a lot of territory.
Hearing this, Li Luo sighed: "This Jie Ketian has acted too hastily."
Liu Ce continued: "Yes, whether it is to assess the situation or lead the army in battle, he is a little immature. Previously, he provoked worshipers of fire and Hui Meng to join forces to conquer, and they were almost attacked at Shuoxi City.
The last general was bold and led his army back to Mongolia. He wrote a letter of divorce and asked the fire worshipers to show mercy. This stabilized the situation. However, due to the recent military situation, Jie Ketian restrained himself a lot and did not engage in such a big war again.
.”
Yun Wuyan frowned and said, "What do Jie Ketian think? I, Mu Tianlang, help them guard the land thousands of miles east of Shuoxi, which is enough for them to recuperate. In a few years, they may be able to regain their national strength." He said.
He slammed the table and said in a cold voice, "Does Xirong still want to send troops to us again?"
Li Luo smiled slightly and said: "Xirong will not send troops to us within a few years. According to Xirong's military strength, it can't pass the Yingchou Gorge, but we must guard against Jie Ketian and worshiping fire returning to Mongolia.
They communicate secretly, and if the armies of the Three Kingdoms are united, they will indeed have the strength to fight with me, Shepherd Tianlang."
Liu Ce said in a deep voice: "The general has also thought about this place. The reason why Jie Ketian is so impatient is because although the land to the east of Shuoxi is named under Xirong, there is no barrier between it and Yingchou Gorge.
It can be defended. Once the war resumes, Shuoxi's safety will be controlled by the swords of our Mu Tianlang soldiers. In this way, only by gaining a foothold in the northwest of Shuoxi can we have the strength to conquer all the territory outside Yingchou Gorge.
Take control.”
Li Luo said calmly: "This little wise king of Xirong, it seems that it won't be long before he becomes another Jialuo."
Yun Wuyan said solemnly: "Although Xirong has a deep hatred for Fire Worship and Hui Meng, on the battlefield, they have always been divided and reunited. If Jie Ketian has this idea, it is really a hidden danger."
"However, in recent years, Jie Ke Tiandang has not dared to have the courage to form an alliance with Huimeng or worship fire. Otherwise, he will not be able to sit on the throne of Xirong for a long time."
Liu Ce said loudly: "What the general said is absolutely true. Even if he works hard and wants to enter Dizhou again, he has to get through Yingchou Gorge, which is guarded by the last general."
Li Luoyi smiled and said: "With General Liu here at Yingchou Gorge, even if worshiping fire and Hui Meng come together, there is no way to think about Leichi."
Liu Ce bowed humbly, but his expression was very clear, showing that he was confident in guarding Yingchou Gorge.
Yun Wuyan secretly praised Liu Ce's ability to defend the city. No one among Mu Tianlang could match him. Even if Li Luo was included, most of them were good at attacking. Among the generals in the army, only Shen Xiangdong could compete with Liu Ce. Compare one to two.
Yun Wuyan laughed and said: "No matter how the world changes, as long as my army of Shepherd Sirius has strong soldiers and generals, why should I be afraid?"
Liu Ce clapped his hands and praised: "General Yun said it well. I think so too. In these months, the officers and soldiers of the army have not had a moment to take a break. The general sent me the method of military formation drill. I asked the officers and soldiers of each battalion to work hard." I already have some skills in training."
Li Luohan said with a smile: "General Liu not only has to defend the city, but also manage the merchants and travelers in Yingchou Gorge. Naturally, he will also need to spy on horses with ulterior motives. In addition, he still needs to train troops and formations, but I have to trouble you."
Liu Ce hurriedly saluted and said: "The general's words are serious, but the junior general does not dare. This is all the responsibility of the junior general."
Li Luo returned the salute and said softly: "Your Majesty has allowed me to be in Mu Tianlang's army, and I can decide on the promotion of the generals from the rank of General of the Auxiliary Kingdom. Looking at the majesty, I am afraid that it has aroused the jealousy of many people secretly. .
Rumors in Zhuocheng have never ceased. The incident of me killing King Huai caused a storm in the city. Even though Dizhou was victorious, the emperor was still disturbed by it. He sent me several orders to return to the capital to report on my duties. Dizhou's new victory has an unstable foundation, and I don't want to go back, so it has been delayed for so long.
Now I don’t know who in Zhuocheng has rumored that I want to support my troops and stand on my own, I’m afraid I have to go back, General Liu, after I leave, the gate of Dizhou will be handed over to you."
Liu Ce stood up, saluted, and replied loudly: "General, don't worry, the general will not send a single soldier into Dizhou for one day at Yingchou Gorge."
Li Luo also stood up, supported Liu Ce, smiled and said: "I trust General Liu. General Yun will accompany me when I go back this time. The army relies on General Liu and Mr. Shen for everything. If anything happens,"
Li Luo paused slightly and said, "It's from Dagan. General Liu sent me a message and I will handle it properly."
Liu Ce was stunned for a moment, then understood, and shouted in a deep voice: "I will obey the order."
The three of them sat down again, and Li Luo let out a breath and murmured: "It's been two years in the blink of an eye."
Liu Ce was also very sad. He looked at Yun Wuyan and said: "Yes, it has been two years. When the general Mo and the general met in Zhuocheng, the Holy Spirit commanded the generals at Dingtiantai. He never thought that today, the general would be here. I still remember what the general said on the Dingtian Platform that day."
Li Luo hesitated for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "I broke my promise."
Seeing that Liu Ce was trying to comfort himself, he said with a smile: "General Liu has not been back in these years. When I come back, General Liu will go back to his hometown to visit, and it will be time for the army officers to go back and see their parents, wives and children."
Liu Ce and Yun Wuyan looked at each other and saluted: "I obey the general's order."
Li Luo looked calm and said slowly: "We will set off early tomorrow morning and return to Guannan early. General Liu and Mr. Shen will take care of the return of the army officers and soldiers to their hometowns. They will return home in batches. The journey is long and short, and the journey is complicated. Let the rear army disburse and return to Guannan. I will inform General Qi." (To be continued.)
