"After all, they just discovered my identity. Since they also have people in Chang'an, it is not impossible to understand me and recognize me."
"So, there is absolutely no need for them to make up such lies."
"And I also observed them specifically. When they said these contents, they did not dodge or make any small movements."
"This all shows that they have a clear conscience and are not lying."
Tianji still trusts Qin Wenyuan's judgment.
She said: "I didn't expect that the deeper the investigation went, the more confused I became."
"Now there is a brand new force that none of us know about."
When Qin Wenyuan heard this, he smiled and shook his head.
"I don't feel like it's getting more complicated and confusing," he said.
"On the contrary, I think we are getting closer to the truth."
"In the past, our clues were limited, and it was difficult to connect everything we found to form a complete logical chain."
"But now, some outlines are gradually beginning to appear in those blank spaces."
"The new things that are emerging are gradually starting to fill gaps in the logical chain of my equity."
"Although, I still don't know what this force is, which party it belongs to, and who controls it."
"But as long as it appears, as long as it takes action, it will definitely leave traces."
"And now that it has appeared, it must have a purpose, and this purpose is obviously related to me."
"All of this, even if it is very vague now, will definitely reveal its true face little by little in the future as it moves."
"So, you said...are you getting more and more confused?"
"No, this is becoming clearer and clearer, more and more obvious."
"Perhaps this biggest secret hidden among countless secrets will be completely exposed before our eyes!"
Tianji couldn't help but sigh in her heart after listening to Qin Wenyuan's words.
Although Qin Wenyuan is very annoying.
But she had to admit Qin Wenyuan's ability.
For Qin Wenyuan, the result was exactly the opposite when it came to matters that he had no control over.
Having people like Qin Wenyuan around is probably a nightmare for anyone who wants to hide their secrets!
She said: "Then what are you going to do next?"
Qin Wenyuan raised his head, looked forward, and said: "The trip to Nanzhao is almost over."
"The clues that should be found and the harvest that should be gained are all there."
"The biggest target at the beginning, the Beidou Society's stronghold, was also found by us."
"Next, just hand it over to the alliance army."
"So, there is nothing left to commemorate in Nanzhao."
"It's time for us to return to Datang."
"I found a lot of clues about the Tang Dynasty in Nanzhao."
"I have a hunch..."
Qin Wenyuan said slowly: "In Datang, I will find the most critical clue."
"Perhaps all the secrets will be finally solved in Datang!"
Qin Wenyuan and Tianji soon arrived at the meeting place and met Sishe and others.
Then they left without any delay with Si She and others.
This time, they didn't waste any time and went in the opposite direction from where they came.
Things in Nanzhao were all over, and they had nothing left to commemorate.
In this way, they rode on horseback and walked for two days before meeting the Union army.
Livan City.
Where the Alliance army is currently stationed.
After Qin Wenyuan and others arrived at the city gate, they were stopped by soldiers.
Because Qin Wenyuan and others were disguised, the soldiers did not recognize Qin Wenyuan.
"Who is it?" the gatekeeper asked.
The other gatekeepers also clenched their weapons and stared at Qin Wenyuan and others with vigilant eyes, intent on taking action if they disagreed.
This made Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly in his heart.
Several months passed.
It seems that the Alliance army has transformed from a loose organization into a truly elite force.
War is the best training ground.
This army composed of hundreds of countries is finally presentable.
Qin Wenyuan took out a token from his arms and said: "Give him to General Xue, and General Xue will naturally know who I am."
Qin Wenyuan was not prepared to reveal his identity.
On the one hand, it's not necessary.
Xue Rengui has done well enough. Even if he is not around, this army is elite enough.
In this case, there is no need to reveal your identity.
Otherwise, it is likely to steal Xue Rengui's limelight and affect the prestige Xue Rengui has accumulated.
On the other hand, Qin Wenyuan wanted to return to Chang'an secretly.
The Beidou Society may not know his movements now, and he doesn't want his movements to be noticed by the Beidou Society, lest Beidou Society set an ambush on the road.
Therefore, all in all, not revealing his identity is the best choice for him.
The guard guard glanced at the token and was a little unsure of Qin Wenyuan's identity.
But seeing Qin Wenyuan facing him and others, he was not nervous at all. It was obvious that he had an extraordinary bearing and did not look like an ordinary person.
So the soldier thought for a moment and said, "Wait a moment."
After saying that, he entered the city directly.
While Qin Wenyuan was waiting, he looked everywhere.
He found that the walls of the Liwan city were stained with blood.
Obviously, attacking this Liwan city is not an easy task. Judging from the blood stains, the casualties are not low.
But fortunately, the alliance army has sufficient strength. With the strength of hundreds of countries, there will be no accidents in attacking Nanzhao, which is not very strong.
He looked towards the city wall again.
I saw that the city wall was full of soldiers. Each of these generals was holding a weapon, with murderous intent, and their backs were straight. They looked like they were really elite troops.
Wang Xiaohua and others seemed to feel the murderous aura of an elite teacher in their eyes at this moment, and they became very well-behaved.
After all, they were thieves before.
He and these elite divisions are like natural enemies.
Even now I have given up the dark side and turned to the bright side.
But there is still some psychological shadow.
Time passed quickly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Not long after, I heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the city.
Qin Wenyuan and others followed the sound and saw a white-robed general galloping towards them.
This white-robed general was very imposing. As he approached, he saw all the soldiers, and they quickly bowed to him: "I have seen the marshal!"
When Wang Xiaohua and others saw the white-robed general, they couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
They only felt that they were facing a terrifying person crawling out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
But at this moment, the general who awed them stood up and dismounted.
He quickly came to Qin Wenyuan and looked at Qin Wenyuan, as if he didn't dare to recognize him.
Qin Wenyuan smiled at this time and said, "It's me."
Xue Rengui's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Qin--"
The voice just started, but soon he stopped talking.
Because he knew that Qin Wenyuan was still disguised at this time, which meant that Qin Wenyuan did not want to be exposed.
He said directly: "Go to the city and talk in detail."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and nodded: "Let's go."
Qin Wenyuan and Xue Rengui entered Liwan City first.
Wang Xiaohua and others witnessed that the marshal who commanded a million-strong army had such a good attitude towards their Lord Qin. For a moment, stars appeared in their eyes.
They knew that Qin Wenyuan had a high status in the Tang Dynasty.
But I didn't expect that his status would be so high.
The Generalissimo, who is so tall and powerful, is so respected.
Originally, they were afraid of these soldiers.
But now, they are not afraid at all.
I saw them all holding their heads high and following Qin Wenyuan with high steps.
Just like Qin Wenyuan's little follower.
Qin Wenyuan looked back at Wang Xiaohua and others. They were walking so abnormally that he couldn't help but laugh and shook his head.
He said: "Walk normally, your steps are a bit too unrecognizable."
Wang Xiaohua and others: "..."
Only then did they realize that everyone around them was looking at them curiously.
This made them blush so shamelessly.
In fact, it was the first time for them to stand proud and upright in front of so many officers and soldiers, and they felt a little dizzy for a while.
Xue Rengui looked at these unfamiliar faces and asked: "Master Qin, who are they?"
Qin Wenyuan said: "My new subordinate."
"They all had some disgraceful pasts in the past, but it's all over now, but they still have some shadows over you, so they behave a little strangely."
Xue Rengui nodded.
He didn't care about Wang Xiaohua and others either.
Since he is Lord Qin's new subordinate, it goes without saying that he is capable.
The person who can catch Qin Wenyuan's eyes is definitely not an ordinary person.
Under the leadership of Xue Rengui, Qin Wenyuan and the others entered the city lord's palace.
Then Xue Rengui settled them in the hall.
Xue Rengui ordered someone to bring hot tea, then he stepped back and looked at Qin Wenyuan. He bowed directly and said, "I have met Lord Qin."
Wang Xiaohua and others' eyes widened immediately.
They thought that Xue Rengui and Qin Wenyuan were in an equal relationship, after all, they were so easy-going just now.
But at this moment, they discovered that it was not the case at all.
The general marshal of the coalition forces who commanded millions of elite soldiers unexpectedly paid such a courtesy to Qin Wenyuan. Their identities were completely different.
This completely shocked them.
They felt that their previous ideas about Qin Wenyuan's status in the Tang Dynasty seemed to be wrong, and they were extremely wrong.
Qin Wenyuan smiled and helped Xue Rengui up, and said with a smile: "No need to be polite."
Xue Rengui smiled and said, "Master Qin, did your trip go well?"
Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly: "We have gained a lot. The Beidou Society's old nest in Nanzhao has been discovered, and many other clues have been found. It can be said that this trip to Nanzhao is considered a success."
Xue Rengui said: "Congratulations, Sir, since it's perfect, it's a worthwhile trip!"
Qin Wenyuan laughed.
He said: "What about you? How is the march?"
Xue Rengui said: "After the adults left, we encountered some fierce opposition. The casualties in those few battles were not low."
"But it is precisely because of these battles, because there are casualties on all sides, that there is real hatred and hatred."
"So the alliance army behind them will become stronger as they fight."
"And after experiencing many times of fighting side by side, we are no longer like a piece of loose sand, and we have a certain amount of trust in each other."
"It can be said that the current alliance army has truly gained combat effectiveness."
"In addition to the motivation methods set by adults, as long as it is a task assigned by me, they will be very active in completing it, so except for the initial problem, there are basically no big difficulties later."
Qin Wenyuan nodded.
He asked again: "Where are the casualties?"
Xue Rengui said: "Nanzhao has suffered 300,000 casualties so far."
"As for our army, the casualties at the beginning were relatively high, including 100,000. But as we fought more and more bravely, the casualty rate actually dropped."
"In addition, our numerical advantage is very obvious, so so far, our casualties are less than 200,000."
Qin Wenyuan thought for a moment.
Nanzhao was not a big country, and its military strength was only seven to eight hundred thousand at most.
So now the damage is almost half done.
The Alliance army numbered one million, and the more they fought, the more brave they became. Except for the initial damage of 100,000, the number of subsequent damage was much lower than that of Nanzhao.
If this continues, the number of damage can be almost controlled to around 300,000, and Nanzhao can be annihilated.
This expedition to Nanzhao seems to have no problems at all.
Qin Wenyuan said: "Now it seems that the expedition is no longer a big problem. It is only a matter of time before Nanzhao is completely destroyed."
Xue Rengui also nodded, his face also full of confidence.
This confidence was gained through battles one by one.
So he is also full of confidence.
Qin Wenyuan asked: "How do the generals of other countries carry out your orders?"
Xue Rengui said: "When your Excellency first left, some generals were a little dissatisfied with me."
"But they were beaten by me a few times, and after they followed me and won the battle, they gave in."
"The people in the army are very straightforward and worship the strong, so as long as I show that I am better than them, it will be easy for them to convince me."
"The orders they give me now are pretty much the same, if they don't just say it's forbidden."
"Anyway, there will be no more procrastination and unwillingness to obey orders."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said: "It seems that you have also gained a lot."
Xue Rengui nodded and said: "After all, this is the first time for the general to lead an army to fight in person. Before this, the general has never had these experiences, and everything is blank."
"So now that I have experienced this, it is really a very precious experience for the general."
"It's only now that the general feels that I have become a real soldier."
Qin Wenyuan said: "I have never seen a wrong person. The first time I saw you, I knew that you were born to serve in the army."
"You were not confident at that time and were worried about disappointing me."
He smiled: "You don't have to worry about it now, do you?"
Xue Rengui scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "After all, I had never even served as a soldier at that time. Lord Qin directly gave me the military power of the fiefdom. I was really worried."
"Now, although I say I'm not that worried anymore, I'm still afraid of making mistakes and disappointing adults."
Only then did Wang Xiaohua and others understand why the marshal respected Qin Wenyuan so much.
It turns out that he was discovered by Qin Wenyuan!
Qin Wenyuan believed that he would become a talented person when he was still an ordinary citizen.
Qin Wenyuan's ability to recognize people is really great.
