Zhuge Qing's words completely shocked Zhou Honglang, who was so shocked that he was speechless for a long time!
If he remembered correctly, it was just yesterday morning when he heard that His Royal Highness the Prince led his army to attack, and by noon today, Brahma Hegemon was captured?
"Is this information wrong?"
Zhou Honglang still didn't believe it, but he actually didn't blame him. He, a great general, had long been tempered by Brahma Hegemon.
I just want to hug my brothers, but I really have no ambition. Therefore, I am not very interested in some intelligence work.
Zhuge Qing is not like that. Although he is under Zhou Honglang's account, he is more interested in repaying the favor of saving his life!
For him who is full of talent and learning, he has been waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to cash in on himself!
"General, our opportunity has come! This boring desert life is about to end."
"Sir, what do you say?"
Zhou Honglang still couldn't turn the corner for a while.
"General, do you know why His Royal Highness did not go to Tianqing City when he came back, but went straight here?"
Zhuge Qing asked rhetorically.
"Sir, what you mean is, for the Zhendong Army? Wasn't it reduced by 60,000? We only have 50,000 troops here, and we are already stretched to deal with the Qin Army. Does His Highness still want to transfer the only 50,000 Zhendong Army?"
Zhou Honglang asked again, because the Qin army opposite was a hundred thousand strong!
"Hahaha! My great general! Do you still think that the Qin army wants to attack Qingguo? If they really want to attack Qingguo, it won't be a mere 100,000 troops!"
Zhuge Qing did not despise Zhou Honglang, because he was just an unpopular general and could not see some of the truth behind it.
Of course, he, Zhou Honglang, was not a fool, and he quickly reacted to Zhuge Qing's actions.
"Sir, what you mean is... what a powerful prince! He has only been in Tiandu College for more than two months, and he has developed a relationship with the Qin State!"
He finally reacted and had to admire Ximen Hao's ability.
"Okay, General, after drinking this glass of wine, let the soldiers pack their equipment and prepare to march westward. As for the defense here, Ji Wubing and the prince must have already thought about it."
Zhuge Qing picked up the wine glass, his eyes flashing with excitement.
Opportunities only come once, and they are fleeting. Only when you seize them is the real opportunity!
Zhou Honglang also started to get excited. The death of Brahma Tianba was a relief, and the chaos in the Qing Dynasty was even more of an opportunity!
"No more drinking! Come on! Send the order to the three armies! Clean up..."
With that said, he hurriedly ran out. He had been waiting for this moment for too long.
Zhuge Qing looked at Zhou Honglang who was leaving in a hurry, gently stroked his beard and murmured:
"General, this opportunity is rare, I hope we can all seize it..."
…
"Duwuwu...duwuwu..."
With the sound of horns, the 50,000-strong army in the yellow sand belt was ready to go. The sound of horns made the Qin army on the other side unable to help but feel restless.
"Ahem! Your Highness, it seems that Zhou Honglang's men are capable!"
Ji Wubing was riding on the Gale Wolf, looking at the army ahead with his neck raised, a smile on his face.
"Nengren? How come Nengren heard people say that Honglang's affairs this week were not going as well as he wished?"
Ximen Hao had already inquired about the situation of the 50,000 Zhendong Army left behind before arriving.
"Haha, this means that he and Brahma Hegemon don't wear the same pants. Well, Your Highness, these 50,000 troops are available."
Ji Wubing used a fan to fan the wind. The midday sun made him, a weakling like him, unable to bear it.
"Set off!"
Ximen Hao gave an order, and 3,000 cavalrymen and 20,000 city defenders continued to advance.
On the opposite side, Zhou Honglang was riding on a monster beast, looking at the slowly approaching army, his face filled with excitement.
Suddenly, Zhuge Qing glanced behind him and frowned.
"General, let our people leave all the military supplies and go into battle lightly."
Zhou Honglang was stunned at first, but out of his trust in Zhuge Qing, he still ordered:
"Commander! Inform the soldiers! Put down all military supplies! Those who are behind to camp! Stop!"
"Yes! General!"
An orderly soldier ran back with an order flag.
Soon, Ximen Hao led the army to Zhou Honglang.
Zhou Honglang quickly got off his mount, took a few steps forward, and knelt on the sand with one knee.
"The last general of the Eastern Army: Zhou Honglang! Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"General Zhou, please rise."
Ximen Hao said and got off his mount.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
"General Zhou, seeing that you are ready, you must know the purpose of my visit, right?"
Ximen Hao said and glanced at the middle-aged man behind him.
Zhuge Qing noticed Ximen Hao's eyes and hurriedly stepped forward to salute:
"Joining the Eastern Army of Xiaguan Town: Zhuge Qing, I have met His Highness the Crown Prince. Your Highness the Crown Prince, my general has been waiting for His Highness for a long time, just waiting to follow His Highness in the crusade against the rebels!"
Ximen Hao smiled slightly, it seemed that Ji Wubing was the one who spoke well, and it was Zhuge Qing.
"Zhuge joins the army without ceremony."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Zhuge Qing stood up and gently touched Zhou Honglang.
Zhou Honglang's expression changed and he quickly saluted:
"Your Highness, the general has learned that Brahma Hegemon has rebelled, so he is holding back his troops and is waiting for His Highness to come and lead us to defeat the traitor! Unfortunately, we are defeated by the Brahma Hegemon. I hope that Your Highness will forgive me for not arresting the traitor!
"
Ximen Hao raised his eyebrows. Why couldn't he see that Zhou Honglang was touched by Zhuge Qing?
"Hahaha! What is General Zhou guilty of? Not to mention that Brahma Hegemon is powerful, and this border cannot be left unguarded."
Zhou Honglang was grateful and gave another gift:
"His Royal Highness the Prince is a wise man."
"Okay, now that General Zhou is ready, put down all military supplies and hand over the defense line! Follow me westward!"
"Awesome!"
Zhou Honglang had to admire Zhuge Qing. Sure enough, this military supply could not be taken away.
"Follow your orders! I will make arrangements now!"
After saying that, he stood up, greeted his generals, and prepared to hand over with the generals from Xingsha County.
Ximen Hao walked up to Zhuge Qing, looked at him carefully, and suddenly his heart moved and he said:
"Zhuge joins the army. I have something to ask you to do."
Zhuge Qing smiled slightly:
"Your Highness asked your subordinate to be the envoy?"
"Hahaha! It's really fun to talk to smart people! Yunlong!"
"The end is here!"
Zhao Yunlong stepped forward.
"Take the Sun-Tiantian Iron Cavalry and join Zhuge's army to send envoys to the Qin Army and deliver this letter."
Ximen Hao took out the letter he had prepared and handed it to Zhuge Jin.
After thinking about it, he took out a Dingyan Pill, which was regarded as an elixir in Tianqing Continent, put it into a jade bottle and gave it to Zhao Yunlong.
"Yunlong, there is a Dingyan Pill in it. If you want to hand it to the commander of the Qin army in person, just say: This Dingyan Pill is a token of my gratitude. When the affairs of the Qing Kingdom are settled, I will personally go to the Qin Kingdom to talk to the yuppies.
Brother, let’s drink and talk happily.”
"As you command!"
Zhao Yunlong carefully received the Dingyan Pill. Although he did not need it, he also knew the value of this pill.
Zhuge Qing's face changed suddenly. Not to mention how important Yan Dan was, it turned out that he had met the Qin army's border commander: Wang Jian's nephew, the fifth prince Qin Ya! That famous ruffian prince in the Qin State
!
"Okay, without further ado, you guys go back as soon as possible. Then hurry up and catch up with us."
After Ximen Hao arranged everything, he ordered the two armies to hand over quickly and then rushed on their way.
