Under Ling Yun's order, the army withdrew from Lanzhou City.
"Ling Shuai, are we leaving Lanzhou City like this?" Shi Tianzong rode up to Ling Yun and said with some reluctance.
After hearing this, Ling Yun looked up at him and saw that he was staring in the direction of Lanzhou City, so he smiled and asked, "Why, you can't bear to leave?"
"Well~Lanzhou City is the throat of Xixia. Many brothers were killed during the siege, so we just gave it up..." Remembering that he had lost many of his subordinates during the siege, now that Ling Yun had ordered to withdraw from Lanzhou City, he felt in his heart
I feel a little uncomfortable, but mostly I feel ashamed of my brothers who died in battle.
"I have already told you the details. We cannot take possession of this Lanzhou City for the time being, otherwise once Xixia is completely angered, there will be a fierce battle...the imperial court will not agree!" Ling Yun had already made it clear to them before, but Shi Tianzong
Still feeling uncomfortable, he could only comfort himself.
Shi Tianzong listened and said nothing.
Ling Yun knew that he had accepted it.
As soon as Lingyun's army exited Lanzhou City, the Xixia army led by Li Yuanwei immediately rushed into the city.
Of course, one of the armies of both sides is at the south city gate and the other is at the north city gate, so the two armies will not collide.
Li Yuanji stood at the gate of the north city and personally watched the Xixia army enter Lanzhou City.
At this time, he was in high spirits and had a smile on his face.
Compared to Lee In-hyo, who stood silently next to him, there was almost no smile on his face, and he kept a straight face the whole time.
"Your Highness, General Shenwei will come in soon. You have to win over General Shenwei. With General Shenwei's help, you will have a chance at that position. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to get close to General Shenwei."
God." Li Yuanji noticed Li Renxiao's reluctance, so he lowered his head and reminded in a low voice.
After hearing this, Li Renxiao's expression finally changed.
"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I know what's going on."
Today, Li Renxiao learned that Ling Yun led his army to withdraw from Lanzhou City, which meant that he had finally regained his freedom and could freely enter and exit Lanzhou City. He was so happy that he couldn't help jumping up in the yard and humming at the same time.
A ditty.
At the same time, he immediately ordered his people to get ready to salute, intending to leave Lanzhou City and return to Xingqing Mansion, which he longed for.
After his idea was known to Li Yuanji, he was immediately stopped by the other party.
Li Yuanwei led his army into the city, which was the best opportunity to win over.
If Li Renxiao misses this opportunity and wants to win over the other party again in the future, he will not have such a good opportunity today.
After Li Yuanji reminded him, Li Renxiao reacted.
That's why this scene happened now.
Halfway through the Xixia army's entry into the city, Li Yuanwei's figure slowly appeared under the city gate. When he looked ahead and his eyes fell on Li Yuanji, he hurried over on horseback.
"Master Li, why are you here?"
Li Yuanwei didn't think that the other party was waiting for him, because Li Yuanji was above him in terms of official position and favor. What's more, he had made great achievements in forging an alliance with Daqian this time. It can be imagined that after returning to Beijing, Li Yuanji's official position would definitely be
Skyrocketing.
"Oh, General Shenwei is here." When Li Yuanji saw Li Yuanwei, he pretended to be shocked. In fact, he had seen Li Yuanwei coming over a long time ago, but he just kept calm.
"I'm here, of course waiting for General Shenwei!"
Li Yuanji spoke straight to the point and was very polite.
Maybe this is why people feel refreshed when happy events happen!
The covenant was reached and Lanzhou City returned to Xixia. No matter which of these two things was successful, Li Yuanji would be happy.
What's more, now that both of them are done, the mouth has never been closed.
"Congratulations, sir, congratulations, sir..." Li Yuanwei took advantage of every opportunity and hurriedly raised his hand to congratulate Li Yuanji.
"Hahaha...same joy!" Li Yuanji laughed even louder when he heard the congratulations.
While he was happy, Li Yuanji forgot one thing.
He turned his eyes to Li Renxiao next to him, and Li Yuanwei began to introduce, "I forgot one thing, General Shenwei, this is His Highness the Third Prince, and he is here specially to wait for the general and all the soldiers and brothers to enter the city."
If Li Yuanji hadn't introduced him, Li Renxiao would have been extremely embarrassed watching the two of them talking.
"General Shenwei, the last general, has met His Highness the Third Prince!" After hearing this, Li Yuanwei saluted Li Renxiao with special respect.
Do you want to say that Li Yuanwei doesn't recognize Li Renxiao?
That is impossible.
Li Yuanwei saw him, but he didn't take the initiative to salute.
This was because Li Yuanwei could roughly guess that Li Renxiao appeared here to win over him, so he did not take the initiative to salute him, but waited for Li Renxiao to speak first.
However, since Li Yuanji introduced him, he couldn't be polite and disrespectful, otherwise he would be disrespectful to the prince.
Disrespecting the prince is not a big deal or a small matter.
It mainly depends on whether anyone wants to stir up trouble. If someone specifically brings this matter up to talk about it, then a small matter will become a big deal.
"General Shenwei, no need to be polite!" Li Renxiao finally forced a smile on his face and responded to Li Yuanwei with a smile.
Li Renxiao and others were chatting lively here, while Ling Yun on the other side had led the army back to Fengxiang Mansion.
"Shuai Ling, all our people have returned to Fengxiang." Guo Yixiu found Ling Yun and reported the situation of the army.
"Well, I understand. I will tell the brothers to have a good rest when we go down." Ling Yun nodded, indicating that he already understood.
"Don't worry, Ling Shuai, I have already made arrangements when you come." Guo Yixiu replied with a smile.
Ling Yun smiled and said nothing. Guo Yixiu was very mature in handling things now and could get things done even without his reminder.
"Yi Xiu, the imperial decree has been issued, and we will lead the army back to the court soon." Ling Yun suddenly thought of something particularly important, that is, the imperial decree has been issued, and they will be required to return to the court in the next few days.
The reason why Ling Yun suddenly mentioned this matter was because he had something more important to do and wanted to leave it to Guo Yixiu.
After hearing this, Guo Yixiu looked thoughtfully at Ling Yun, obviously waiting for Ling Yun to continue speaking.
"Shuai Ling, do you want me to do something?"
"You are right, there is indeed something for you to do."
Ling Yun did not hide it and nodded decisively.
"If Commander Ling has something to do, just ask him." Guo Yixiu didn't pay attention and answered with a relaxed expression.
Guo Yixiu didn't care. Anyway, he would do whatever Ling Yun asked him to do.
"This matter is particularly important. There are many generals in the army, and only you can do it." Ling Yun stared at him for a while, and then explained the importance of the matter, which was a kind of vaccination for him.
"No matter what happens, the general will obey military orders!"
"Okay, this is your answer." Ling Yun was very satisfied with this answer and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
"You don't have to accompany me when I return to the court this time, because I have already asked the court for you to be stationed here." Ling Yun watched him tell the truth word by word. The original task assigned to Guo Yixiu was to station him in Fengxiang.
