Chapter 1,383 Return to the team and return to duty
The woman's answer disappointed Gu Xun, but it was also within his expectations.
As long as it involves the secrets of Canglong Qisu and the plans of Donghuang Taiyi, it is almost impossible to obtain too specific direct information.
He is used to it.
Gu Xun nodded and showed no dissatisfaction. After saying the last word, he turned around and disappeared.
"In the next period of time, if necessary, I will come again."
"If you have any requests, you can put them forward at that time. As long as the information you provide is valuable enough, I can agree to it."
As Gu Xun's words drifted away, only the woman was left on the empty ice platform again.
She looked at the dark and silent space around her, and an uncontrollable smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth, and it continued to expand. Her whole body was shaking slightly, and it seemed that there was a tendency to laugh wildly.
But in the end, she suppressed it forcibly, all her smiles disappeared, her body returned to calm, and in the end, all that was left was an indifferent look on her face.
Of course, I didn’t see any of these Gu Xun.
………………
"Why, Lord Moon God is actually alone. Could it be that the Lord Imperial Master has already left?"
The Moon God, who left the Zibei Water Pavilion and returned to his dormitory, 'happened' to meet the Zuo Guardian Star Soul who didn't know what he was going to do.
Seeing that Gu Xun was no longer with the Moon God, the other party asked out of curiosity.
But probably because the relationship with the Moon God was basically broken, Xinghun didn't even bother to act, so he asked with a sneer and a yin and yang tone.
Moon God lowered his eyes and glanced at the little man. He was too lazy to argue with him and responded perfunctorily, "Master Xinghun should ask the national master personally about this question. I don't know whether he has left or not."<
/p>
As he spoke, the Moon God kept his feet on his feet, passed by Xinghun, and was about to leave.
Xinghun turned his back to Moon God, the sneer on his lips became more sinister, and asked again:
"Speaking of which, I'm curious about something."
"Lord Donghuang seemed to have personally secretly escorted a person to the mirage before. Does Lord Luna know about this?"
Moon God's footsteps suddenly stopped, but he did not look back at Star Soul, but replied coldly:
"It's best for us subordinates not to pry into Lord Donghuang's affairs."
"Ha!" Xinghun chuckled, "I'm just curious."
"I really want to know, who is it that Lord Donghuang can treat with such solemnity? Where is he being imprisoned at this time?"
"It's a good thing to be curious, but Master Xinghun had better be careful to avoid crossing the line." Luna warned in an increasingly cold voice.
Xinghun smiled even more and responded in a playful tone, "Of course I know this, but I don't know if you still know, Lord Moon God, that some things are insurmountable."
After being warned by Star Soul in turn, Moon God was silent for a moment, then responded in this way, and then walked forward again.
"I won't disturb Lord Xinghun anymore and continue to be curious."
Listening to the retreating footsteps of the Moon God, Xinghun twisted his neck, and the evil sneer on his face became more and more rampant. He paced forward slowly with his hands behind his back, and left here.
………………
Songhai City Mountains, Tenglong Legion’s remnant camp.
It is said to be a camp, but it is actually an open space created by man. Some simple tents are scattered around. There is no formation, let alone a camp.
Because for the remnants of the Tenglong Legion at this time, doing those fancy things is completely meaningless.
With only more than 200 people left in the Tenglong Legion, there is no use for the camp at all, and it may even have negative effects - setting up the camp requires cutting down additional trees and collecting resources, which may attract attention from the outside world.
Today's Songhai is a dangerous place for them, and this mountain forest is definitely not a safe place.
To the far west of the mountain forest is the Qin Army’s camp.
Once discovered, they would have a hard time running away.
In fact, if they had not had to stay in Songhai, they would have left this land of right and wrong long ago.
For the sake of safety, as well as being able to run away at any time and reduce losses, life is naturally as simple as possible. Anyway, just have a place to sleep, food to eat and not go hungry. Fortunately, it is summer and the weather is relatively warm, otherwise it would be really difficult.
Can’t live.
Shao Yu, who was helped back to the camp by Long Qie, looked at the simple environment and the shabby equipment on the soldiers and generals coming and going, his eyes darkened, and he was wondering how these remnants had persisted over the years, while blaming himself.
This young master is incompetent.
People in the camp saw that their general was actually supporting Shao Yu, and they were all wondering about his identity - after all, Shao Yu was the young leader of the Xiang clan and had a noble status. Even among the most elite Tenglong Legion in Chu State, they knew him.
There are only a very small number of people.
Long Qie rejected his subordinates' request to come over for help, and did not rush to disclose Shao Yu's identity to them.
Shao Yu's identity should naturally be revealed to the remnants of the Xiang clan by himself, rather than by Long Qie Yue Zu.
It needs to be explained here that Chu State is the country with the most serious remnants of the old feudal aristocracy among the seven war kingdoms. All the great aristocrats within it retain considerable power.
As the largest military aristocracy before the fall of the Chu Kingdom, the Xiang clan had a considerable number of generals in the army who were members of the Xiang clan, such as the former commander-in-chief of the Tenglong Legion, who was Long Qie's father.
Therefore, although the Tenglong Army was theoretically directly affiliated with the King of Chu, their entire army followed their general and recognized Xiang Yan as their lord. Shao Yu, who was Xiang Yan's direct grandson, was naturally their young master. Now that the direct lineage of the Xiang family has died out, only Shao Yu is left. As a young master, he has theoretically been promoted to a serious lord.
It's just that he is still young, so the Xiang clan is temporarily managed by Shao Yu's uncle Xiang Liang.
Long Qie is not worried that these subordinates do not recognize Shao Yu. They are all old men of the Tenglong Legion and have been loyal to the Xiang clan from beginning to end.
Long Qie took Shao Yu to a corner of the camp and helped him sit down and rest.
Shao Yu looked at Long Qie with a complicated expression. He hesitated for a while before speaking, his tone was very sluggish:
"Aaron, you, and them..."
At this time, Long Qie knelt down on one knee with a loud sound, folded his hands and arched them in front of his chest, and solemnly saluted:
"Long Qie, Tenglong Legion, pays homage to the young master!"
"Don't talk about this now..."
Upon seeing this, Shao Yu quickly called Long Qie to get up, but he did not respond and instead reported to himself:
"The Tenglong Army was ordered to cut off the rear, cover and evacuate. The final general led his army to repel the Qin army's attacks more than ten times, killing 7,500 enemies, and after holding on for a month, he fell and retreated."
"After retreating, the last general failed to join the main force, so he led the remaining troops to guerrilla in various places. Until now, the remaining troops... two hundred and thirty-four people finally returned to their posts today and obeyed the young master's orders!"
As the words gradually choked up, Long Qie lowered his head and respectfully presented the golden Tiger Trooper Talisman that had been in his hands for several years.
"Two hundred...thirty...four people..." After hearing Long Qie's words, Shaoyu was so stunned that he did not take the tiger talisman. He repeated the number as if unconsciously, and tears silently flowed down from the corners of his eyes uncontrollably. At that time, the Tenglong Legion had already suffered heavy losses, but at least there were still thousands of people in the army, but in the end, they only had about 200 people fighting...
