"Your Majesty, the front line is victorious, Beidi County is defeated and has surrendered to our army!"
Upon hearing the report, Zhao Yanxun just nodded, then stood up from his chair and said: "Bring all the surrendered troops to the city..."
"yes!"
After saying this, Zhao Yanxun turned around and walked towards the city wall, and Hu Dabiao immediately followed him.
"Your Majesty, what are you going to do with them in the city?"
Zhao Yanxun replied calmly: "This is a prison, and it is most suitable for reform through labor!"
"Reform through labor?"
"Then what if? Bring it back as an offering?" Zhao Yanxun asked.
After the Beidi County was conquered, a large amount of labor was needed to resume production, and these soldiers were just right.
How to implement it will be worked out in detail later. For now, we just need to imprison people in the city first.
At this moment, what worried Zhao Yanxun the most was not Liu Shili who was defeated, but Xu Longsheng who had disappeared without a trace.
According to existing information, Xu Longsheng joined forces with the Northland Army to attack, and these people did make a big move early this morning.
But the problem now is that only Zhu Jihong's two thousand people actually participated in the battle.
What is Xu Longsheng doing? Is he really staying in the city?
Zhao Yanxun couldn't figure it out for the time being. At the moment, he could only deal with the Northern Army first, and then deal with Xu Longsheng and the others.
…………
In Bei'an City, Luo Lun stayed in the courtyard. He was currently under house arrest.
This morning, his residence was surrounded by Northland Army soldiers, and several guards staying with him were also disarmed.
There was no way, there were too many people coming, and a few guards trying to fight would be courting death, so Laurent didn't let them take action.
Through the phone call, Luo Lun had learned from Pingshan Mansion that the Beidi Dusi and the Forbidden Army had jointly attacked, so he was imprisoned here.
"Stupid, short-sighted..." Luo Lun cursed. This was his evaluation of Liu Shili.
Prince Yong's Mansion is powerful, and the Northern Dusi and the Forbidden Army are no match if they join forces. This is something Luo Lun himself can judge.
Walking to the door of the courtyard, Luo Lun yelled: "By cooperating with the Forbidden Army, you are seeking the skin of a tiger!"
It's a pity that his words were ignored by the soldiers guarding this place. These people were Liu Shili's confidants, and naturally they would not listen to Luo Lun's "nonsense".
Just then, a voice came from outside: "Let me in!"
Hearing this sound, Luo Lun knew that the sent guards had returned, and he sent five people to investigate the situation in the city.
I just heard the soldiers stationed outside sneer: "Oh, you dare to come back!"
"Come in!"
Then, the guard who returned from outside entered the courtyard. Of course, he was also disarmed at this moment.
"Oh... why are you back!" The guards in the courtyard couldn't help complaining.
The guard ignored his companions, but came to Luo Lun and said, "Sir, I discovered the situation at Wang Cheng'an's place!"
Lauren originally wanted to complain, but how could this guy be so stubborn? When he heard this, he swallowed all his complaints.
"What's going on?" Lauren asked.
"Wang Cheng'an has more than a hundred people under his command, hiding in several houses in the east city, and all of them have weapons!"
Hearing this, Lauren was horrified.
It is normal for Wang Chengan to have people under his command. According to Luo Lun, there are more than twenty people, but now the guards say there are more than a hundred people.
So Lauren asked: "How did you know?"
"The villain was wandering around the east city to find out news. He learned from the garrison sergeant in the city that they were searching for us, so the villain had to flee and hide in an alley!"
"After the search soldiers left, the villain wanted to wait a little longer before leaving, so he hid on the roof and didn't move!"
"But after waiting for less than a quarter of an hour, I saw Wang Chengan rushing over and knocking on the door of a house in front of the villain!"
"The courtyard was originally empty. After knocking on the door, someone came out of the middle room. He opened the door and welcomed Wang Chengan in. Then someone else came out of the room!"
"Just in this courtyard, there are more than 20 people hiding inside!"
"Their voices were very low, and no one could hear what they were talking about. After leaving this courtyard, Wang Chengan went to several other places!"
It seems that Xu Longsheng is also very cunning and arranged these things in Bei'an City... Luo Lun was secretly surprised.
At this moment, two questions popped up in Lauren's mind.
When did these people come? What is the purpose of appearing in Bei'an Prefecture?
Based on Luo Lun's understanding of Xu Longsheng, he definitely had no good intentions in arranging the people. He might have done it to cause destruction or create chaos.
As Laurent was thinking about it, he heard a guard reminding him in the room: "Sir, the call is coming!"
Fortunately, they were under house arrest in their residence, so they could maintain contact with Hepingshan Mansion.
After entering the house, Lauren picked up the phone and said, "I'm Lauren!"
The person on the other side said: "Master Luo, the Northern Army has been defeated!"
Upon hearing this, Laurent was immediately overjoyed. As long as the Northland Army was defeated, not only would he be safe, but he would also have more confidence to speak.
Recalling the question in his mind just now, Luo Lun immediately asked: "The Forbidden Army was also defeated?"
"The main force of the Forbidden Army has not yet come out, and the Xiaowu Guards who participated in the battle have withdrawn!"
The conversation is very short, because the number of words per call per day is only two hundred.
There was silence between the two, and finally Pingshan hung up the phone.
Luo Lun also put down the phone. At this moment, he walked out of the room and came to the courtyard gate.
Just listen to Luo Lun say: "I want to see Yan Jianzhang!"
Baihu, the leader of the team, said: "We adults are not free!"
Luo Lun said again: "Since you won't let me see him, you can always give me a message, right?"
Baihu asked: "Tell me about it!"
"You all commanded that the army has been defeated..."
Before Luo Lun could finish speaking, everyone present laughed and then drove Luo Lun back to the yard.
Unable to explain to these people, Lauren had no choice but to go back to the yard and stay there.
At this moment, a guard came to the side and said to Luo Lun: "Sir, I think... let's just kill him. Even if we die, we won't be a coward!"
"They think highly of us and have sent more than a hundred people to guard us. There are only six of you, how can you get out?"
Sighing, Luo Lun said: "Just be patient, our army will be victorious on the front line, and they will let us go obediently!"
This statement is extremely reasonable, and few people present can refute it.
Time gradually passed, and before half an hour, the soldiers guarding outside were heard talking.
"A large number of cavalry are coming from the east? What is going on?"
"Who knows... the scouts who just returned may have made the Lord triumphant!"
"Shit, we have cavalry over there!"
"Sir, I just went to inquire, and I heard from the resting scout that someone from the Forbidden Army is here!"
Lauren listened to these conversations from beginning to end.
When he learned that the Forbidden Army had appeared in Bei'an Mansion, Luo Lun was greatly surprised, but at the same time it was reasonable.
The main force of the Imperial Guard did not appear on the front line of Pingshan Mansion, so they had to go somewhere.
Now that the city defense of Bei'an Prefecture is empty, these forbidden troops suddenly appeared. Could it be that...this was their plan early in the morning.
Using the alliance to mobilize the main force of Bei'an Prefecture, and then take over Bei'an Prefecture City as a piece of meat, is really a good plan... Luo Lun couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
At this time, a guard reminded: "Sir, there seems to be chaos outside, there is a lot of noise!"
Luo Lun nodded, then went directly into the room and dialed the number of Pingshan Mansion.
"Report to Your Highness, the main force of the Imperial Guard has arrived outside Bei'an City!"
After the other party answered, the call was immediately hung up, while Lauren stayed in the room.
About a quarter of an hour later, the phone rang, and Laurent immediately answered the call.
"Luo Qing, try to defend the city and don't let the imperial army succeed!"
This was Zhao Yanxun's voice, and Luo Lun immediately replied: "I accept your order!"
