"General, our brothers are all tired today. Can we recruit more troops tomorrow?"
The general outside the door asked Li Guishou for instructions, and Li Guishou said: "If you are tired, take a rest and talk about it tomorrow."
At this time, Li Guishou had doubts about the conscription, and he planned to wait until Donna's information arrived.
"The last general takes orders."
The general outside the door was very happy and could finally take a rest.
...
Cloud City.
At dawn, Tang Heizi led more than fifty people to the east gate.
After confirmation, the soldiers on the city put Tang Heizi into the city.
After entering the city, he saw Donna and knew that Long Chen had arrived. Tang Heizi immediately walked in. Donna stopped Tang Heizi and said, "Wait a moment, King Wu is still sleeping."
There was Shi Jingxiang in Long Chen's room, and Donna felt that Tang Heizi was a bit reckless going in.
"It's okay, I'm familiar with the adults, he won't mind."
Tang Heizi didn't understand the meaning and thought Long Chen was just sleeping in the room.
If he was just sleeping, it wouldn't matter if Tang Heizi went in directly.
Donna stopped Tang Heizi and said, "There are other people in the room."
Now Tang Heizi understood, stopped, and asked, "The governor of Yangcheng and the captain of Yuncheng Zeng Mu are spies of the ghost fetus. Does your Excellency know about this?"
Zeng Mu is a subordinate of Donna, he is a spy of Gui Fei, and this matter involves Donna.
Tang Heizi didn't want to tell Donna at first, but he was afraid of delaying the matter, so he had no choice but to tell her.
Donna smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Excellency, I know and have already dealt with it. Old General Yuwen sent a letter yesterday."
Tang Heizi laughed and said: "Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts, who would have thought that these two are spies."
Donna also smiled, knowing that Tang Heizi was looking for something to make up for her.
"General Tang, are you going on a night journey? Do you want to take a rest first? I think our brothers are all very tired."
The more than fifty elite soldiers accompanying him were in the yard, looking very tired.
"Sorry, General Tang."
Donna immediately arranged for her men to rest immediately and the horses to be sent to the stables.
"Don't General Tang himself take a rest?"
When Donna saw that Tang Heizi still wanted to wait for Long Chen, Tang Heizi thought for a while and said, "Then I'll go down and rest too."
Tang Heizi got up, and Donna sent someone to see him off.
"Why..."
Donna sighed, there was something wrong with her men, and Donna had to explain it to the empress.
Donna thought about it all night last night, but she still didn't know how to write the appropriate memorial.
The best way is for Long Chen to explain to the Empress. This is better, but Donna is too embarrassed to say this.
A messenger hurried in, holding a secret letter from Yangcheng Colonel Li Guishou.
"General, a secret message from Colonel Li Guishou."
Donna immediately stood up and answered it, opened the secret message, and after reading it, she broke into a cold sweat.
Unable to care so much, Donna turned around and walked towards Long Chen's bedroom.
When she arrived at the door, Donna knocked hard and shouted: "King Wu, General Donna needs to see you in an emergency."
Soon, the door opened. Shi Jingxiang was still sleeping, and Long Chen opened the door in his pajamas.
"What's wrong?"
Long Chen saw that Donna's expression changed and immediately asked what happened.
Donna said: "Li Guishou, the captain of the Yangcheng school, wrote a letter. He said that I ordered the prefect Wu Gui to urgently recruit troops. In three days, 100,000 people will go north to reinforce the border."
"But I have never conveyed this order. This is obviously fishy!"
Long Chen looked slightly happy and said: "Wow, the ghost fetus is really in Yangcheng. This guy is so brave."
"Qin Hao attracted attention from the north and used five hundred ghost soldiers as bait to feign an attack. The ghosts took the opportunity to sneak into the hinterland. By the time we noticed, the ghosts had already left with them."
It has to be said that the strategy of ghost fetus is very clever.
If Yu Wenkai hadn't caught Ma Feizi and learned that the Yangcheng prefect was a spy, Guitei's plan would have been completed.
"King Wu, we..."
Donna was very anxious, Long Chen said: "Don't be anxious, I'll think about it..."
Long Chen walked outside and closed the door. Shi Jingxiang was still sleeping.
After thinking for a while, Long Chen said: "If you do this, Shi Jingxiang and I will quietly go to Yangcheng. Don't tell anyone."
Long Chen finally decided to go to Yangcheng to clean up the ghost fetus himself.
Ever since they met the ghost fetus during their trip to Holy Snow Peak, the two had been fighting for several years, and it was time to settle their grudges.
This time, the ghost fetus sneaked into Yangcheng, and Long Chen planned to keep him there.
Donna said worriedly: "If the ghost tribe attacks Yuncheng, I'm afraid I won't be able to defend it."
After Long Chen left, Donna felt that she had lost her backbone and was not sure of guarding Yuncheng.
The cultivation level of Qin Hao and Gui Tai far exceeds that of Donna. If anyone attacks, Donna will not be able to withstand it.
"Don't worry, it's certain that the target of the ghost fetus is Yangcheng. I asked Old General Yuwen to quickly reinforce him. With his Demon Dragon Camp here, even if Qin Hao attacks the city, he will be safe."
Of course Long Chen knew that Donna couldn't hold on, so he planned to let Yu Wenkai come over.
Now that it is confirmed that the ghost fetus is causing trouble in Yangcheng, there is no need to defend the Acropolis anymore.
"That's good, but it will be incompetent in the end."
Donna felt deeply powerless.
I used to think that I could lead troops and had good martial arts skills.
After meeting the ghost clan, he realized that his cultivation was not enough to fight against the ghost clan, and he had to protect Long Chen completely.
As a general, this is not enough.
"You've done a great job."
Long Chen patted Donna on the shoulder, encouraging her to cheer up.
Donna smiled movedly and said, "General Tang arrived just now with more than fifty people. I saw that King Wu was still sleeping, so I asked them to go down and rest."
Long Chen felt strange and asked: "Why did Tang Heizi get here?"
Logically speaking, Tang Heizi should be at Yanmen Pass.
Donna said: "He was ordered to hunt down Ma Feizi. Unexpectedly, Ma Feizi was captured and killed by the cavalry of the old general Yuwen, and General Tang rushed here again."
Long Chen smiled and said: "This Tang Heizi failed in his errand and wanted to stay here to avoid the limelight."
Long Chen could guess Tang Heizi's little thoughts at once.
He does not mean that.
Donna also wanted Long Chen to help explain. Tang Heizi's words unintentionally touched on Donna's thoughts, and Donna felt her face burning.
"Let him rest here. Yuncheng also needs a guard. I will send a letter to the city guard immediately."
When Long Chen returned to his room, Shi Jingxiang got up and asked, "Is the ghost fetus in Yangcheng?"
After cultivating to the true state, everyone's hearing is very sensitive and they can hear clearly even through the door.
"Yes, I plan to go right away. You can come with me."
Long Chen quickly wrote the letter, Shi Jingxiang got dressed, opened the door, and found Donna standing at the door.
"Send a message to Acropolis immediately, I will leave immediately, and you will announce that I am in the room."
"Tell Li Guishou again that everything should be done according to Wu Gui's wishes. Pretend you don't know and don't alert others."
Long Chen handed the secret letter to Donna, who quickly sent a letter to Aicheng and also to Li Guishou, asking Li Guishou to stabilize Wu Gui.
Long Chen and Shi Jingxiang got on their horses and immediately went quietly to Yangcheng.
After leaving Yangcheng, Shi Jingxiang said: "It will take two days to get to Yangcheng. By the time we arrive, Guitai has already left with others."
Long Chen said: "So, we intercepted in the north of Yangcheng."
The two of them quickly headed north of Yangcheng.
...
Acropolis.
The letter eagle landed in the prefect's mansion, and the prefect Xiong Wei received the secret letter, which was addressed to Yu Wenkai. Xiong Wei immediately sent it to the military camp in person.
Outside the camp gate, Xiong Wei felt his feet were a little weak.
The Demon Dragon Camp was full of gloom and looked very menacing, and Xiong Wei felt a little scared.
"Prefect Xiong, why are you here?"
Lieutenant General Yang Hu happened to pass by and walked up to say hello.
"General Yang, I'm going to pay my respects to General Yang."
Xiong Wei didn't know who was older than Yang Hu in terms of rank, so he just saluted.
"Prefect Xiong, you came to visit our brothers with nothing?"
Yang Hu laughed and joked, but Xiong Wei said awkwardly: "There is a secret message from Yuncheng. It is for the old general. I came in a hurry and forgot to bring something."
