Chapter four hundred and seventy-eight old friends get together
After hearing the news, the eldest prince rushed forward with Tang Qiuyu, Xia Wutong and others, looked at Li Ye and asked, "Is this the end?"
Li Ye looked at him and shook his head, smiling: "It's just that we don't have to attack the city anymore!"
The eldest prince looked at him and said: "Let's send a large army to take over the south gate tower first. As long as the other party does not resist and is willing to surrender, we will take them all."
Li Ye looked at him and nodded, then told Nalan Yu and Jiang Huo: "Send a large army to accept the south gate tower and treat the injured soldiers. Those who are willing to surrender can stay, and those who are unwilling can leave. Those who resist will be punished!"
Nalan Yu glanced at Jiang Huo, and the two of them clasped fists in response to the eldest prince and Li Ye, then turned and left.
Xia Wutong walked up and looked at the white flag on the white jade city tower, and murmured: "Is the fight over now?"
Li Ye looked at her and smiled: "Isn't this good? Take down White Jade City without spending a single soldier!"
Mu Mu curled her lips and said: "We still have to have people recover those iron arrows, so they can be used again!"
Li Ye looked at her and said, "Wang Tianhua and the others will arrange these things."
Just as he was talking, Wang Tianhua ran over, looked at Li Ye and asked: "Generalissimo, Master National Preceptor, the other party has already raised the white flag, is there no need to fight anymore?"
Li Ye nodded, pointed at the white jade tower and said: "Take back the arrows you fired, and use the ones that can be used. If you can't, wait until you enter the city and recast them in the furnace."
The wind and cloud gradually rose and then suddenly subsided, less than an hour later.
Looking at the mighty army marching into White Jade City, Tang Qiuyu sighed softly and said: "I didn't expect that it would end like this."
Xia Wutong didn't understand, so he raised his head and asked, "Master, isn't this a bad ending?"
Tang Qiuyu was startled and replied without even thinking: "Who can say anything bad? I just said that they raised the white flag without even trying to resist."
"I had no intention of killing, but they kept forcing me! We are as strong as brothers, how could they stop me?"
Looking at the people in front of him, Li Ye said softly.
After saying this, Li Ye stretched out his hand and the guard handed over the reins and got on the horse.
He looked at the people around him and said, "Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion together to meet the legendary Jiang Daofeng and Linghu Zhen from the Imperial City, if they are still there."
Seeing Li Ye getting on his horse, everyone also got on their horses one after another, and a group of people followed the army and headed towards Bai Jade City.
...
What surprised Li Ye and the eldest prince was that when they followed the large group of people led by Jiang Huo to the city lord's mansion, not a single person was seen in Nuo Da's city lord's mansion.
Walking into the living room of the city lord's mansion, Li Ye learned from Jiang Huo that Jiang Daofeng had learned that he was going to confront the southern Xinjiang army, so half of his family had returned to the imperial city early, and Linghu Zhen and others had disappeared.
Traces.
"If I guessed correctly, they must have fled back to the imperial city." Li Ye looked at everyone and said calmly.
"It's better to leave, so that you don't have to know how to face him if you meet him!" the eldest prince looked at him and replied.
While he was talking, Ma Feihu came in with several soldiers, followed by Wu Tiancheng who surrendered.
Ma Feihu met with the eldest prince and Li Ye, pointed at Wu Tiancheng behind him and said: "This is Wu Tiancheng, the general of White Jade City. It was his idea to raise the white flag. He is willing to submit to us and ask the national advisor to handle it."
Wu Tiancheng knew the eldest prince but did not know Li Ye. When he heard that the young man in front of him was the youngest national preceptor in the dynasty, he quickly stepped forward and saluted: "The general has met the grand marshal and the national preceptor."
The eldest prince looked at him and asked: "Where is the city lord here?"
Wu Tiancheng was stunned, thinking of the way Jiang Daofeng was hit by an arrow, and quickly replied: "Before the war started, the city lord was hit by an arrow in the chest. He was later carried back to the city lord's mansion by his brothers. His life or death is unknown at the moment."
The eldest prince turned his head and glanced at Li Ye.
Li Ye looked at him without making a sound, but looked at Wu Tiancheng and said: "Since the general is willing to submit to us, please go with General Ma to convince the other soldiers in the city. After all, we are all one family."
Surrendering without a fight was the happiest thing for Li Ye. It was the best outcome for both his side and the other side's defenders.
The eldest prince looked at him and said: "After the matters in the Imperial City are dealt with, General Wu can continue to return to White Jade City, or he can stay in the Imperial City."
When Wu Tiancheng heard this, he was extremely happy. He cupped his hands and replied: "General, I will go and persuade the brothers in the city right away. Let's all follow the marshal and the imperial master back to the imperial city."
Li Ye waved his hand and said: "Hurry up and deal with it! Handle things carefully, the generalissimo will not treat you badly."
Ma Feihu shook hands with the two of them and left in a hurry with Wu Tiancheng.
After all, there are several other city gates that need to be dealt with, otherwise the capacity will cause chaos.
Tang Qiuyu took Yeluyan and Xia Wutong to sit at the tea table, lit the huozhezi, and planned to make a fire to make tea.
The eldest prince found a cushioned chair and sat down, looked at Li Ye and said, "The next step is the imperial city."
Mu Mu, who was next to him, heard this and turned to look at Li Ye and asked, "Are you going to attack the imperial city tomorrow?"
Nalan Yu also turned to look at Li Ye, and everyone in the room was waiting for his decision.
Unexpectedly, Li Ye shook his head, looked at everyone and said, "Don't worry, there is food and accommodation here. Let everyone rest first. The damaged arrows must be recast. We must defend the White Jade City first."
The eldest prince nodded after hearing this. In the two battles, a lot of arrows and arrows were lost and they needed to be recast. White Jade City was the best place right now.
"Should we send someone to repair the damaged south gate?" The eldest prince thought of the south gate that was damaged by the siege troops and looked at Li Ye and asked."
"This is a natural thing. We will summon the craftsmen in the city from now on, and the army will also assign some troops to assist, and strive to repair it as soon as possible. If you can't find the materials, then look for them nearby."
Li Ye thought about the white wall on the city tower and thought that the south gate would probably be painted in the future.
Seeing Tang Qiuyu and Xia Wutong's anxious look, Li Ye smiled: "Everything went smoother than we expected. Why don't we rest here for a few more days? Mr. Tang can also take the two princesses to the city tomorrow.
Take a walk.”
No burning, killing or looting is allowed when entering the city. This is a rule set by Li Ye and the eldest prince. The southern Xinjiang army dare not abide by it, and White Jade City is still an important town under the imperial city.
The merchants in the city also seemed to know the reason for the war. Even when the army entered the city, they did not close their shops and no one came out to welcome them.
In their eyes, all this is a matter of course.
It was Youshi, Jiang Huo came back from outside, looked at the eldest prince and Li Ye and said: "The guards at several gates in the city are willing to submit to us, which saves a lot of trouble."
The eldest prince nodded and said with a smile: "We are a family originally. It was those guys in the palace who forced them to make a choice."
"There's no need to change their positions or garrison, right?" Jiang Huo looked at the two of them and asked one more question uneasily.
"No need to change, let them continue to garrison White Jade City, deploy some troops and horses, and follow our subsequent actions." Li Ye pondered for a moment, looked at Jiang Huo and said.
"That's good. After all, many of these soldiers have settled in White Jade City. It's really not easy for them to leave." Jiang Huo saluted the two of them on behalf of the surrendered soldiers.
"Have the army's camp and dinner been arranged?" Li Ye was concerned about the food and accommodation of the 80,000-strong army.
"Returning to the country, Baiyu City is very big. There are several military camps and our troops are stationed there. There is no problem at all." Jiang Huo replied.
The eldest prince looked at him and smiled and said: "Deputy Marshal has had a hard day today. Go back and rest early. Let's have a drink and celebrate tomorrow!"
Jiang Huo had this intention. After hearing what the eldest prince said, he clapped his hands and said, "That's very good. I'll go back and take a nap first."
It was cold and freezing, and the army rushed all the way from Fenglingdu to Baiyu City. They waited outside the city for two hours. They were already hungry and sleepy, so it was a good time to rest.
Mu Mu didn't ask Li Ye what he had eaten at night. Since she followed Li Ye to Southern Xinjiang, she no longer had to worry about food and clothing. It seemed that it had become Li Ye's business overnight. She was very satisfied with this.
.
As long as Li Ye is okay, from her perspective, everything else is not a problem.
Li Ye looked a little embarrassed when he saw everyone. He looked up at the city lord's palace. There was no one in sight. He subconsciously sighed: "Tonight we have to cook by ourselves."
Tang Qiuyu, Yeluyan and Xia Wutong all looked at him. Xia Wutong asked: "Haven't we done it ourselves?"
Li Ye was startled for a moment, remembering some things on Fangcun Mountain, and a smile gradually appeared on his cheeks.
...
"I brought you some food, I don't know if it suits your needs!" Li Ye, who was worried, heard a beautiful voice from the door.
Nalan Yu, who was sitting aside, was like a cat pricked by a needle. He jumped up with a "Shuhu!" and ran up to ask: "Why are you here in this chaotic situation?"
Li Ye stared blankly at the two people who walked in. He found that the cold wind outside the door was blowing their hair, but it still couldn't wipe away the smiles on their faces. It actually gave him the joy of meeting again after a long separation.
Before he could get up to greet him, Mu Mu had already jumped up, hugged the woman who walked in, and shouted: "Oh, I miss you so much, Sister Hua!"
Another girl looked at Li Ye and said with a smile: "Looking at your silly look, do you think you hate us?"
In the living room, Li Ye stood in the lobby, looking at the girl who walked in, his brows gradually relaxed, and he said with a smile: "How dare I dislike Sister Hua!"
Hua Luoyu smiled tenderly, put the dish she was carrying on the table, then sat down next to Tang Qiuyu, looked at Li Ye and said with a smile, "I'm sorry you don't dare!"
While Tang Qiuyu poured hot tea for the two of them, he laughed and cursed: "The rules are getting more and more irregular. I don't know how to salute when I see the generalissimo and the national master. I still act crazy."
Hua Luoyu was startled and quickly jumped up and blessed the eldest prince. Then she walked up to Li Ye, looked at him and said with a smile, "Do you want my sister to salute you?"
Li Ye was startled and thought to himself, I'm not afraid of you now, but because of the face of Nalan Yu and Hua Tianxia, I didn't dare to argue with him, so I could only reply bitterly: "Be careful, I will take over your building."
.”
Hua Tian, who was bowing to the eldest prince, was stunned. He looked at Li Ye and said, "You don't have to accept it. I'll give it to you, okay?"
Li Ye was stunned, pointed at Nalan Yu and said, "He wants me not to!"
The eldest prince looked at the two of them and smiled and said: "We happened to say that we had nothing to eat at night, and the owner of the flower shop brought it here. It is really a timely help!"
Li Ye looked at the two of them and asked: "Speaking of which, if you two are not staying well in the imperial city, why did you come to White Jade City? Didn't you know that there was a battle just today?"
Hua Tianxia did not immediately reply to his words, but looked at Tang Qiuyu and said, "Sister, I brought some good wine, so I can have a good drink later!"
When Tang Qiuyu heard this, he pointed at Nalan Yu and said with a smile: "This guy has been greedy since southern Xinjiang. Do you dare to skip my wine?"
Hua Tianxia turned his head and glanced at Nalan Yu, and said with a smile: "I have them all. I won't kill you if I drink them."
Li Ye looked at Mu Mu and said with a smile: "Mu Mu, you fancy sister wants to harm me. She will have to take a sip of the wine she pours first."
Mu Mu looked at the two of them and giggled: "I don't care. If Sister Hua wants to poison her, she poisons Brother Nalan first."
When Nalanyu heard this, his face suddenly turned red. He looked at the group of women in front and said, "What does it have to do with me?"
Li Ye was not happy when he heard this. He looked at the eldest prince and said, "I remember in Nanyun City, but someone begged us to let Sister Hua go. It seems that there is no need now."
Nalanyu was stunned, looked at the two of them and said, "Are you trying to burn bridges by crossing the river?"
