There was deep admiration on the young man's face: "Ping'an County is located behind Jinyun Prefecture, and beyond the Suiyun Mountains is Chunhe Prefecture and Congyun Prefecture."
"According to common sense, this should be the most dangerous place. No one would have thought... that only Ping'an County was defended."
"That's right."
Liu Hu nodded and said: "According to what the Demon Envoy Qian Zhen said, Zuo Chongming not only defended Ping'an County, but also sent reinforcements to recover surrounding towns."
The young man admired him: "It's really hard to imagine that this person is only at the Blood Coagulation Realm... No, I heard that he has been promoted to the Guiyuan Realm and is also a martial arts genius."
Liu Hu said thoughtfully: "This person has always been in the emperor's heart. After this battle, Emperor Wu may not be able to forget him. His official career is prosperous..."
"He's only seventeen."
The young man has no jealousy, only admiration and awe.
You will only feel jealous when you are a few steps ahead. If the other person is a hundred steps or a thousand steps ahead of you... you will not be jealous.
Because you know very well in your heart that no matter how hard you try, you can only see his back.
Even if you slack off a little bit, you won't even be able to see your back.
Liu Hu sighed: "When I was seventeen, I was still guarding the prison gate."
As if thinking of something, he suddenly slowed down and lowered his voice and said, "Go behind and tell those guys not to cause trouble."
"ah?"
"I heard that the reason why Emperor Wu sent them to Jinyun Prefecture was because Zuo Chongming had complained before."
"ha?"
"Even if I tell you the details, you still won't understand."
Liu Hu glared at him impatiently: "Just remember, don't let them offend Zuo Chongming, otherwise I won't protect them."
offend?
The young man was shocked by these two words.
This Master Liu is a master in the Yuanhai Realm, and his official rank is not low.
When he talked about Zuo Chongming, he actually used the word "offensive". This is just ridiculous...
Liu Hu sneered: "How many people do you think can win over a senior member of the household department with a letter? So be careful and you won't make a big mistake."
"Zuo Chongming was married to a princess not long ago, and now he has made extraordinary achievements. Just being promoted is not enough. I'm afraid he also needs to be knighted."
"A knighthood?"
The young man was greatly shocked and couldn't believe it.
The title of the Wu Dynasty was not easy to obtain, especially for people from Zhenfusi.
After all, the power of the Zhenfu Division is already great enough. If he were to be granted a knighthood, it would be a bit over the line.
"Very surprised?"
Liu Hu said softly: "Young prince Bo Zinan, I estimate that if it is not hereditary, he should at least be a viscount, or even an earl...it's all normal."
The titles of the Wu Dynasty are roughly divided into two categories. One is hereditary and can be passed down to future generations, but it will be downgraded by one level every two generations.
There is also a kind of title that is not hereditary. This kind of title is usually very high, but if you die... nothing will happen.
"hiss……"
The young man took a deep breath and secretly remembered these words in his heart.
Even if you can't make friends with Zuo Chongming, you must not offend such a promising guy.
Travel until mid-afternoon.
The convoy finally passed through the ruins of the town with broken bricks and tiles, and arrived in front of Ping'an County.
"hiss……"
"This, this is... a mass grave, right?"
"So many skeletons, yuck..."
"Creepy."
"How many people have died?"
Everyone was frightened when they saw the piles of skeletons under the towering and mottled city walls.
Even Liu Hu, who had experienced hundreds of battles and could express his emotions and anger, could not help but change his face slightly, looking at the horrifying scene in horror.
A mountain of corpses, a sea of blood, a mountain of corpses, a sea of bones...
Of course they know these words, and they can even use more gorgeous words to write a majestic and beautiful article.
But they knew better that these were all adjectives, and they never thought that one day they would be able to see... such a real and no-exaggeration sight.
"Huh? Someone is coming."
"There are so many people."
"Damn it, look at how well-dressed they are."
"In my opinion, 80% of them are from the imperial court."
"That's nonsense. The carriage is the logo of the Zhenfu Division. Who can't see it?"
"Reinforcements from the imperial court?"
"It's just like the aid in the movie. After the battle is over, they come back."
The players who were busy cleaning the battlefield and gathering bones looked at such a large group of guys coming over and couldn't help but whisper.
Discussions continued, but no one came forward.
Because players have long memories.
This is not another game. If you rush into an NPC, you will get scolded a few times at most, and these are still fixed lines.
But the journey back is different. People are divided into three, six or nine classes. If they talk to them in their current status, they might be beaten to death in the street.
The players who have survived to this day have a certain level of strength, and they don't want the results of their hard work to be wasted because of lack of care.
However, a few players were discerning and secretly ran into the city to report.
"Let's go into the city."
Liu Hu took a deep breath and let out a muffled groan that shocked everyone back to their senses. He led the horse towards the door.
Crunch, crunch~.
At this moment, the Demon-Destroying Bed Crossbow mounted on the city wall suddenly turned around and aimed at them, and at the same time, a Dragon Breath Cannon appeared.
This scene scared them to the point of confusion, especially the ugly-faced Taiyuan disciples, who looked at the dark muzzle of the cannon and felt their calves twisting.
A man appeared from the city wall and asked loudly: "Who is coming? Tell me your name."
Liu Hu was about to speak, but before he could speak, a shout came from behind: "We are reinforcements from the imperial court, why don't you give way quickly?"
"???"
The expression on Liu Hu's face suddenly became ugly, and he couldn't help but glare at the young man next to him.
"Sir, I really warned them."
The young man smiled bitterly and apologized: "But you also know their identities, so it would be strange if you could hear them. What's more... they have a grudge against Zuo Chongming."
"..."
Liu Hu twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at the man who was speaking, and the sobbing girl beside him, and instantly understood why this guy wanted to stand out.
The people on the city wall were unmoved. Instead, they sneered and mocked: "Reinforcements? The Liansheng Sect also used this excuse when they broke into the city and took out the stronghold."
The man frowned and took off the token from his waist: "Here is the token, please quickly ask Zuo Chongming to come out to greet you."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The other party lazily said: "You can't see clearly, throw it up."
"It's too much to bully others..."
The man heard the perfunctory tone in his words, and his face turned green with anger.
Damn it, who gave this big-headed soldier the courage to talk to him like this? I really don’t know how to write the word “death”!
"Shut up."
When Liu Hu saw that it was almost done, he scolded and threw a token toward the city: "Show it to the Zuozhen Demon Envoy. The imperial reinforcements are here."
The man at the top of the city caught the token, clasped his fists respectfully and said, "Sir, wait a moment, I will inform you now."
"Damn it..."
The man was not a fool. Looking at his behavior before and after, he immediately understood - this big-headed soldier did it on purpose.
To be fair, the carriage they were riding in had the banner of the Zhenfu Division, which anyone who was not blind could recognize.
Even if the big-headed soldier didn't believe it, he wouldn't be so vulgar and rude. After all, if it was true, how could he afford the revenge afterwards?
Thinking of this, he became even more disgusted with Zuo Chongming.
No matter who leads what kind of soldiers, if this big-headed soldier is like this, Zuo Chongming himself must be even more unbearable...
"Everyone."
He stared at the city gate with twinkling eyes and sent a message to other Taiyuan disciples: "We are in this situation only because of Master Zuo."
"As the saying goes, courtesy reciprocates. He has humiliated us like this three times. If we don't show him some shame, I'm afraid he will become even more lawless in the future."
A young man opened his mouth, frowned and advised: "This man has an extraordinary mind, is quite capable, and has accomplished extraordinary feats. He is not easy to deal with."
These words resonated with many people, and some people echoed: "From what I can see, even if we want to deal with him, it's best not to pick this time."
Although they were quite angry with Zuo Chongming, Wang Peng's lessons learned and the reminders from their elders made them remember.
A man who wants to inspire success with a few words is simply thinking too much.
Seeing that no one was supporting him, the man's face became a little ugly, and he silently kept this account in his heart.
If you can't deal with Zuo Chongming, why can't you deal with these guys?
After returning to the capital, there are many ways...wait!
The man suddenly thought that Zuo Chongming would be summoned to the capital to meet Emperor Wu after he had made such great contributions...
The capital is their territory!
…
It didn't take long.
The leader of the soldiers walked out of the city gate and said respectfully: "My lords, the demon envoy of Zuozhen is fighting fiercely with the leader of Liansheng. He is in bed recuperating and cannot go out to greet him. I hope you will forgive me."
Some people couldn't help but say: "A fierce battle? Did he really defeat the leader of Liansheng?"
They had heard this kind of news before, but they thought it was a rumor spread by Zuo Chongming, which plunged the Liansheng Sect into chaos...
No one believed that Zuo Chongming was really fighting with the leader. After all, there was a huge difference between the two.
As soon as these words came out, the big-headed soldier's expression suddenly changed.
"Excuse me for speaking frankly."
He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "When Lord Zuo and Master Liansheng fought fiercely, countless people watched with their own eyes. Do you think we are all blind?"
"Cough~!"
The man who had been refuted by the big-headed soldiers before coughed slightly and said: "Of course you are not blind, but have you ever seen Master Liansheng?"
"this……"
The big-headed soldier was so suppressed that his face turned red and he was speechless.
"So you haven't seen it before?"
Seeing this, the man's lips slightly raised, and he said with a smile: "In that case, how can you be sure that the person you fought with that night was the leader?"
The big-headed soldier said angrily: "Then, he admitted it that night. He said it himself."
"Haha, admit it?"
The man laughed out loud: "As we all know, the identity of Master Liansheng is secretive and his whereabouts are mysterious. Why would such a figure foolishly declare his family name?"
"Besides, your Lord Zuo is just a demon-suppressing envoy. Can he have to travel thousands of miles to deal with a mere county town?"
"you……"
The big soldier's eyes turned red with anger, and he was about to draw his sword.
"Why are you so anxious? I'm not saying that Mr. Zuo did something wrong."
The man said refreshingly: "The situation was critical at that time. We were lucky to be able to defend the city. It's okay to lie. It's all a strategy."
