In Kaser City, Yelusak's guard chief Duke took over the entire defense of the city. Compared to the Yelufan family, the Yelusak family finally had a powerful armed force.
Zhu Si and Xia Qing gathered their troops, and the Tianlei artillery carriage was wrapped in tents again, ready to return to Dafeng at any time.
A temporary high platform was erected outside Kaser City and became the venue for peace talks between the two major clans. After two days of negotiations, Yeludan and Zhan Khan decided on their respective clan boundaries and jurisdictions. Amid the cheers of the soldiers of the two armies, Tianqing and his team
All the tribes were happy to shake hands and make peace. At this point, Zhu Daguan's journey to Tianqing could finally come to a successful conclusion.
Early the next morning, Yeludan led all the soldiers in Kaser City to line up to send him off. The people in the city also walked out of the city gate to send off the Dafeng soldiers who had fought together.
Zhu Tianjiang couldn't help but feel a little sad when he looked at the farewell team, especially the Yangjin brothers who fought side by side, with tears in their eyes. They knew that after Zhu Tianjiang left, they might never see each other again.
See. After these days of contact, Zhu Tianjiang made these people completely change their impression of Dafeng people.
"Lord Yeludan, go back and tell Sister Douha that the wedding team will arrive soon." Zhu Tianjiang said with cupped hands.
"Father-in-law, tell my family, Dou Dou, that I remembered the little poem that you taught me, and I will read it to her later." Daniel followed on the horse.
Zhu Yi, Xia Qing and others looked at each other, and the millet grains dropped to the floor in disgust. It would be strange for someone like him to recite a "little poem", and the listeners would not vomit.
Yeludan smiled bitterly. It was hard to tell whether his daughter would be a blessing or a curse if she married this guy. Looking at his dazed look, Yeludan always felt as if he had been deceived by Zhu Tianjiang.
Everyone waved goodbye, and Zhu Tianjiang and others began to march towards Dafeng. Before they had gone twenty miles, Zhan Khan followed him with twenty iron guards. Zhu Tianjiang took a look and helplessly stopped the team.
.
Zhan Khan's injury was not healed, so he first came to Lin Feng's car and said goodbye to his master. His master's enemy was dead, and Zhan Khan knew that there was no way to avenge this revenge, so he couldn't blame Emperor Cheng Wu.
After saluting Lin Feng, Zhan Khan looked at Zhu Tianjiang who was nestling aside, "Tianjiang, I hope you won't break your promise to me."
"Look what you said, am I that kind of person?" Zhu Tianjiang put his hands in his sleeves and shook his head.
"Also, if my sister is wronged, no matter how high an official you become, I, Zhanhan, will never spare you." Zhanhan pointed at Zhu Tianjiang and said.
"Have I wronged her? Is there any mistake? Then she still has to beat me to death." Zhu Tianjiang curled his lips and said.
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Zhan Khan, as long as I am here, Tianxiang will not dare to bully Zhan Ling."
Zhan Khan nodded, "Uncle, Zhan Ling has never left me since I was a child. I hope you can take care of me more. When heaven comes, I will send you off far away. Have a safe journey!"
Zhu Tianjiang stood in the car and hugged Zhan Khan, and the convoy slowly started under Zhan Khan's eyes. Farewell to Zhan Khan, Zhu Tianjiang immediately ordered to move forward quickly. The convoy had enough food and grass, and there was no need to enter the city along the way.
supply.
Zhu Tianjiang sat in the carriage and looked at the desolate grassland outside. It was still hot in late summer when they left the capital, and in a blink of an eye, it was early winter. The slightest chill made Zhu Tianjiang wrap up his blanket tightly, and the sky was blue.
Xing allowed him to get a spiritual fortune telling, but Zhu Tianjiang didn't know how to tell Guo Ying and Yu'er about it.
Lin Feng was also sitting in the carriage. After all, he was an elderly man. He was injured twice during this trip to Tianqing, which added a few more wrinkles to Lin Feng's vicissitudes of life.
Zhu Tianjiang looked at Lin Feng, and a hint of guilt suddenly appeared in his heart. From the day he met Lin Feng, this old guy could be said to have always treated him like his son. In several crises, Lin Feng was the one who stepped forward.
Thinking of this, Zhu Tianjiang stood up and put a felt blanket on Lin Feng's thin body, "Master, after you go back this time, I think you'd better clear things up for Mrs. Guo. When spring comes next year, the two of us will
Let’s hold a happy event together.”
"You brat, if you talk nonsense again, believe it or not, I'll kick you down." Lin Feng glared at Zhu Tianjiang and stretched out his hand to wrap up the felt blanket.
"Master, what I told is the truth. Guo Tianxin will return to Beijing at the end of the year to report on his work. I will tell him about this then. If it doesn't work, you can elope with Mrs. Guo."
"Get out of here, don't make me angry here." Lin Feng reached out angrily and picked up a horse pole in the car, and whipped Zhu Tianjiang out of the car.
Zhu Tianjiang came to the gun carriage depressed. He wanted to help Lin Feng promote a beautiful marriage between him and Mrs. Guo, but who knew that the old guy couldn't save his face. In Zhu Tianjiang's eyes, their relationship was considered
The world was shocked and the ghosts and gods were weeping. The majestic Qinglong envoy went to a house and worked as a gardener incognito for twenty years. With this heart, the old lady should also be deeply moved.
Zhu Tianjiang and others traveled all the way at dawn and stayed overnight. After traveling for more than ten days, they arrived at the North Pass of Dafeng. At this time, Zhou Yantian's flag had been replaced by the Dafeng flag of Wenruhai at Hukou Pass.
As soon as the convoy arrived at the checkpoint, a commander immediately came up to greet them, "Master Zhu, my subordinate Ma Qi came to greet us on the orders of my general."
"Who is your general?" Zhu Tianjiang asked.
"It's General Ge Long."
"Oh? The North Pass is guarded by Ge Long?"
When Zhu Tianjiang heard this, he knew that he was an acquaintance. When Shutian established the "Cantop Army", Ge Long, Fan Rong, Yang Bo and Qin Wei were the four generals under Zhu Tianjiang.
Zhu Tianjiang entered Beiguan Pass and rushed to Beiguan City without stopping. Ge Long learned that Zhu Tianjiang had arrived and waited outside the city early.
"Subordinate Ge Long, see you sir!" Ge Long came to the front of Zhu Tianjiang's chariot, dismounted and said with fists in his hands.
"Ge Long, you are now a general, so we brothers don't have to be so polite." Zhu Tianjiang was very happy to see his former subordinate.
Ge Long took Zhu Tianjiang into the city and came to the government office. Only then did Zhu Tianjiang start to ask about the affairs in Guan Nei.
"Ge Long, a few days ago a group of troops came with my order. Where did they go?" Zhu Tianjiang was most worried about spiritual fortune-telling. He was afraid of causing any misunderstanding.
"Sir, the female general has already rushed towards Guishan City with her troops and horses. With your order, the general will not dare to stop her," Ge Long said with a smile.
Zhu Tianjiang felt relieved when he heard that the Zhanling soldiers and horses were traveling smoothly, "Tell me quickly about the events in Guan Nei. How did General Wen get injured? Is it serious?"
When this matter was mentioned, Ge Long's face darkened, "Sir, Wen Shuai was too careless. When Wen Shuai received your order, General Fan Rong and I each led an army of troops as the vanguard. Wen Shuai ordered me to
Going straight to the North Pass, occupying the Dafeng and Tianqing Pass key roads first, General Fan Rong began to clean up the cities outside the pass. The old thief Zhou Yantian was extremely cunning. After getting the news, he began to shrink his troops. The fifteen cities outside the Hukou Pass were almost effortless.
We took it. However, General Fan encountered strong resistance when he attacked Coba City. Knowing that Fan Rong could not be captured for a long time, Marshal Wen was furious and personally led an army of 20,000 to support him. Who could have imagined that Zhou Yantian set up a trap halfway?
He set up an ambush and defeated Commander Wen with superior force. He also turned around and routed Fan Rong's 10,000-strong army.
That battle was extremely tragic. Wen Shuai was hit by three arrows. When he learned that he had lost 20,000 troops in this battle, Wen Shuai fainted from his wounds. From then on, Deputy Commander Qin Wei took on the important task. However,
The situation in the war turned around, and we reached a stalemate with Zhou Yantian.
Mr. Zhu Er arrived some time ago and told Commander Wen to stay put according to your wishes. Otherwise, Deputy Commander Qin Wei is prepared to fight to the death."
After listening to Ge Long's battle report, Zhu Tianjiang sighed and shook his head. Wen Ruhai, Qin Wei and others were all fierce generals trained by Guo Tianxin, but they were good at defending cities and fighting in the field. As for some conspiracies during marches and battles,
Wen Ruhai has never liked this approach. It seems that in terms of ability, Wen Ruhai is indeed inferior to Guo Tianxin. Fortunately, there is civil strife in Tianqing, otherwise he would join forces with Zhou Yantian to go south in one fell swoop, and Hukou Pass would have nothing but to block the pass.
Other ways.
"Ge Long, what is the current status of the defense?" Zhu Tianjiang stood up and asked.
Ge Long took out the march map and said, "Sir, I currently have 10,000 troops stationed here. Yang Bo still has 10,000 troops in reserve at Hukou Pass, and the remaining 20,000 troops are all outside Coba City under the command of Deputy Commander Qin Wei.
Wen Shuai is also there, but because he is injured, he cannot command the siege yet."
"Where are the 20,000 people I sent?" Zhu Tianjiang asked.
"The female general said that they will go directly to ambush near Guishan City and will contact Lord Zhu Er then."
"Okay! She is indeed my wife, that's right." Zhu Tianjiang patted the desk and said excitedly.
If the spirit divination also goes to Coba City, it will not only have an advantage in terms of military strength, but it will be a big taboo in terms of strategy. Zhou Yantian can sit leisurely in Guishan City and dispatch troops and horses for support or sneak attacks. Now the spirit divination army is ambushing in
Being near Guishan City is equivalent to cutting off Coba City's escape route. Without Zhou Yantian's control, Coba City would be captured sooner or later.
Ge Long looked at Zhu Tianjiang in confusion, not understanding what he meant by 'daughter-in-law'. In the eyes of these generals, Zhu Tianjiang would sooner or later be Guo Tianxin's son-in-law. When would he have another foreign daughter-in-law?
.
Zhu Tianjiang did not explain, and immediately ordered Zhu Si to lead his troops to start their journey. It still took three days to travel from Beiguan to Coba City, and Zhu Tianjiang wanted to get there as soon as possible. Before leaving, Zhu Tianjiang ordered the people in the city to
An Zi sent a message to Zhu Er Feige, asking Zhu Er to tell Qin Wei that three nights later, five thousand people would be left to guard the empty camp. The others all quickly headed towards Guishan City.
Zhu Tianjiang wanted to bypass Coba City and take Zhou Yantian's base camp by surprise.
