A few days later, a reply came from the royal city. Prince Chun, the Privy Council and Emperor Wanlong each wrote a letter. Prince Chun was furious, and the letter had harsh words, rebuking Li Luo for having no family ethics, which really taught him a lesson.

Yang Wanli's letter was much gentler. He only said that Li Luo's actions caused an uproar in the capital and was quite inappropriate. However, there seemed to be some praise in his words.
On the other hand, Emperor Wanlong's letter was the simplest, with only four words written: We'll talk about it when we get back.
After Li Luo read it, after a long time he put all the letters away, put them aside, stood up, opened the curtain and walked out of the big tent.
The weather in Shahu is getting colder and colder day by day, and today there are actually light snowflakes scattered. It is a good time for dignitaries to enjoy the scenery along the river in Zhuocheng, but the Western Region is already full of desolation.
Li Luo walked around the camp, and heard the sound of horses neighing and the shouts of soldiers from time to time. He killed King Huai and Dou Sheng, and the malaise in the army was swept away.
Share fighting spirit.
Li Luo walked to the infantry camp and watched from a distance as the soldiers in the camp were practicing their assassination techniques. They were the eight bloody battle moves that Li Luo had learned before, but they were much simpler than those taught by Wang Shi. The moves were opened and closed to facilitate fighting in front of the formation.
.
While Li Luo was watching, Liu Ce hurried over, walked to Li Luo, and whispered in a low voice: "General, the forward spies have reported that there seems to be something strange in the Xirong army. There has been a small group of Xirong troops in the past few days.
Our army is exploring all around, General, do you want the last general to lead his men to capture and kill them?"
Li Luo shook his head slightly and said: "No, it will come sooner or later. I think it's just these few days, so just be more careful."
Liu Ce accepted the order and rode away. Li Luo turned around and returned to the Chinese army's tent, notifying the generals of each battalion to come to the Chinese army to discuss matters.
After a while, all the generals had arrived. Hucha Dongchan and Chi Li also sat at the end of the table because they were the commanders and generals guarding the left and right battalions. When the generals were seated, Li Luo and Liu Ce reported to the generals.
After telling it once, everyone's hearts were shocked. What should come is finally coming.
Huchajing was the first to ask for a fight. Li Luo smiled slightly and said: "It's just a few scouts, so there's no need to engage in a big fight. Let them go. In the past few days, defense is the priority in the camp, and no active attack is allowed."
Huchajing felt a little regretful and sat back down.
Seeing this, Shen Xiangdong laughed and said: "General Hucha, don't be discouraged. The Xirong have had the upper hand in the wars in the Western Regions in recent years. We must make a name for ourselves in this battle to inspire the soldiers on the border. If a few Xirong spies are exposed,
If you don’t have the ability of Muzhou Yuqi, then the gain will really outweigh the loss."
Huchajing suddenly understood and looked up at Li Luo. Li Luo also had a smile on his face. Huchajing pursed his lips, nodded slightly and stopped talking.
Li Luo then said: "Set up a camp ten miles behind the camp and store some food. General Qi, please guard it these days. Don't lose food before encountering the Xirong army."
Qi Shaobing hurriedly accepted the order, and then asked carefully: "General, what will the general do if he encounters Xirong's army?"
"If you encounter more than a thousand people, protect the lives of the soldiers under your tent."
Qi Shaobing felt relieved, bowed deeply, and sat down.
Liu Ce stood up and said: "General, I will send someone to drive away Xirong's spies. They have been swarming around the camp like flies these days without any fear. If our army does not take action, they may become suspicious."
"Well, what General Liu said makes sense. I'll ask General Cha to do this. Those who can catch up will be captured under the tent, and those who can't be caught will be let go."
"Yes, the general will take your orders." Huchajing replied in a deep voice.
"It will take as little as three days or as long as five days. The Xirong will definitely come to disturb the camp. These days, each camp will be more prepared. General Liu will be in charge of the outside, and General Liu will be in charge. Do not give the Xirong any chance to take advantage of it."
"General, I will obey the order." All the generals responded in unison.
The camp began to be on alert, the Xirong army was close at hand, and the army became more dignified and nervous.
Li Luo secretly sighed. Although the army was strong and strong, it had been away from the battlefield for a long time, and its strength had become scattered. The soldiers often had sleepless nights. Compared with the war that his father had mentioned was about to come, the food and sleep were much worse.
After thinking about it, Li Luo couldn't help but secretly laugh at himself. Before the war, he was also in a state of confusion and unbearable. I'm afraid he was far worse than these soldiers.
On the third day, when Li Luo was studying in his tent, Ni Qing suddenly rushed in and announced that the Xirong army was already thirty miles away.
Li Luo raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are the movements of the army marching to the west?"
Ni Qing was stunned for a moment, then realized that it was the army of Di Jie, the envoy to the west, and hurriedly replied: "General, they only sent out smoke when Xirong crossed the border, but they did not send out troops."
Li Luo stood up, Jing Xie has been inseparable these days. He took Guin Feng who was leaning on the side. Li Luo opened the big tent. Ni Bai had already prepared the horse. Li Luofei got on the horse and raised the horse.
He took the reins and galloped towards the camp gate, calling Dong Chan and Chi Li to follow closely.
Hucha Dongchan is dressed in silver-white light armor and looks extraordinary. It is a scene of beauty like a jade sword and a rainbow.
When they arrived at the gate of the camp, all the generals, except Qi Shaobing from the rear camp, had already gathered in front of the camp. The horses' hooves started, and everyone turned back. They were all attracted by the cicada, and they all looked over. Even Liu Ce also
No exception.
On the other hand, Hucha Dongchan had a calm look on his face, showing no sign of emotion or anger, and was elegant and comfortable. This made several young generals unable to take their eyes away.
Liu Ce secretly screamed in shame, picked up the reins of his horse, came to Li Luo and said: "General, the Xirong army is already thirty miles away."
Li Luo snorted, took a few steps forward, and saw the dust raised by the Xirong cavalry from a distance, like a rolling dragon, pressing towards the camp.
"Can you tell who is coming? How many troops and horses are they leading?"
"General, this army is led by Feitianhu Ning'erfeng, one of the five tiger generals under Qiang Xingzhi, the marshal of Zuo of Xirong. It has about 30,000 people."
"Thirty thousand?" Li Luo asked in surprise.
"Yes." Liu Ce replied firmly, "Although Xirong claims to have an army of 400,000, there are only more than 300,000 capable warriors. The marshals on the left and right each lead more than 100,000 troops. This Ning'erfeng is a fierce general of Xirong.
He was brave and resourceful, traveled across the Western Regions, encountered enemies in drought, and won the trust of the Qiang people, so he was allowed to lead an army of his own and independently guard the Shahuzhou line."
"My Da Gan army of 500,000 people versus the 300,000 Xirong wolf army is just a barely sustainable situation. Why is this?"
The generals looked at each other, and no one dared to respond rashly. Li Luo smiled and said: "After being weak for many years, it will be difficult for General Di to maintain his position."
Shi Chong interjected: "These grandsons have scared the Xirong army. The Xirong army passed through the Shahuzhou front line in such a grand manner, but they didn't even dare to send out a single soldier. What's the use of this fortress?"
Li Luo laughed and said, "They are looking at us."
Shi Chong was stunned, scratched his head and said, "What do we have to see?"
While he was talking, the Xirong army had already arrived ten miles in front of the formation. The yellow sand rolled up all over the sky, gathering together without chaos. The march was quite orderly. Even Liu Ce couldn't help but nod secretly.
Li Luo saw this and asked, "Who is supervising the battle ahead?"
Hucha Jing said: "General, in front is Ding Zhan leading the Hu Qi camp to resist the enemy."
"Well, don't let the Xirong army break up the army formation."
"Don't worry, General," Liu Ce continued, "Every battalion has been prepared. If Xirong dares to charge forward with his troops, I, the Shepherd of Heavenly Wolf, will come down from high and I will make sure that he never comes back."
Li Luo nodded, and the generals bowed and returned to their camps. The remaining soldiers, Shen Xiangdong, Liu Ce, Hucha Dongchan and Chi Li, gathered around Li Luo.
The sound of horse riding gradually reached everyone's ears, mixed with the shouts of the Xirong cavalry. Some of the soldiers passing by the battlefield looked pale and clenched their weapons too hard, and their hands were shaking slightly.
Liu Ce glanced secretly, and saw Li Luo's face was calm, not nervous or excited, but seemed to be filled with inexplicable sadness.
