After the immortal disappeared

After that he went back to the house.

The cup placed on the ground suddenly disappeared, as if it had been dragged into the ground by something.

The corner of the yard is back to its original state.

￥￥￥￥￥

He Lingchuan blinked and looked at the holes in the roof. It took him a long time to realize that he was in Soul Country.

The starry sky in reality and dreamland are both equally bright.

He sat up and stretched.

The Broken Blade Squadron, like the other Panlong Army, has left the capital of the Western Kingdom and arrived at the easternmost city of the former Western Kingdom, only one step away from the border.

The permanent population here exceeds 90,000, making it the fourth largest city in Xiqiao. It can barely handle the garrison needs of the Panlong Army. Of course, cilium has perished. According to Zhong Shengguang's request, General Red renamed this place Yuheng City.

"Yuheng Star is the brightest star in the Big Dipper. Every night, it illuminates the way home for the soldiers of Panlong City."

The army reorganized here for two days, ready to march eastward at any time.

As soon as he stretched, Willow's call came from outside: "Hey, come out to eat dumplings, you lazy fools!"

He Lingchuan jumped up and walked out. The door panel where he was leaning against the corner and snoring ran faster than him.

A large pot was set up in the open space outside. Fat white dumplings were rolling up and down in the boiling water. Some of them burst, coating the soup with a layer of bright oil.

Just by looking at this pot, you can tell that Liu Tiao's cooking skills are probably as good as He Lingchuan's. Menban sat down and ate a few dumplings, praising the wicker for being well-done while sizzling from the heat.

My daughter-in-law has to be praised by her family.

No matter how thick-skinned Liu Tiao was, he was still a little red: "I broke several of my bags, and these good ones were all made by Father Liu."

She was responsible for all the intestinal ruptures.

Father Liu is nearby. He is in his fifties, dark and thin, with a stooped figure. He has a headscarf tied on his forehead, which fits He Lingchuan's impression of hardworking and simple working people.

He brought two more drawers of raw dumplings over and placed them beside the pot. He smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed: "Eat more, there are plenty!"

"Dad Liu, thank you for your hard work."

As soon as He Lingchuan sat down, Father Liu fished out a bowl of dumplings for him, but the one for Liu Tiao was so full that it almost overflowed.

The Broken Knife team sat down and feasted.

It stands to reason that the army's food is very simple, only a large amount of radish pimple soup, dead noodle steamed buns, a little dried meat and pickles.

However, after hearing the news from nearby, the elders of Xi Luo came over, leading pigs and sheep, carrying cakes and meals, and kept delivering things to Panlong's army.

So Panlongjun got several extra meals. Tonight's steamed buns have been replaced with dumplings, and there are even two flavors: pork, green onion and carrot and egg.

Liu Yao and A Luo went over to help make dumplings in the afternoon. When the finished products were brought out, each one was half a palm in size, fat and solid, and one bite filled the mouth with oil.

Father Liu, who traveled more than 20 miles to deliver meat and vegetables, was from Rongshan. When he saw Liu Tiao, he fell in love with her and insisted on recognizing her as his daughter. Later, everyone learned that he came to Xiqiao from Panlong Wasteland in his early years. His wife and only daughter died in the Rongshan riot a few years ago.

No one had the heart to refuse his kindness.

In the past two days, Yuheng City was full of laughter and laughter.

Although everyone is on the front line.

To the east is another small country, Jinying.

However, this country was frightened by Panlong's army's attack on Xiqian, and now heavily troops are stationed on the border to confront Panlong's army.

If He Lingchuan climbed up the tree now, he could even see the fire on the other side of the boundary.

That is Jin Ying's army.

It is said that the whole country of Jin Ying has been mobilized and is ready to defend the country at all costs.

With their eyes facing each other like this, there's no chance that sparks will fly.

He Lingchuan understood that the reason why the Panlong Army attacked Xiqian as if they were entering an uninhabited territory was because they had the advantage of "quick". Before the opponent could react, they had already crossed the Xiqian Mountains and entered the undefeable plains.

In He Lingchuan's view, Jin Yao is now wary and prepared, and is in a mountainous area. It is quite difficult for the Panlong Army to win quickly and with few injuries like before.

It can be said that the Panlong Army's return eastward will encounter real resistance from now on.

Senior officials such as Zhong Shengguang should know this best.

It depends on how they plan.

He Lingchuan half sat up. There were firelights and voices nearby.

Because of the previous victory, the entire army was in high spirits.

He heard one of the soldiers say: "Last year, I accompanied my uncle through Longhou Pass. There was a little leader there who saw that we were from Panlong City and asked us to move all the more than 600 pieces of goods from the car and check. It’s prohibited! There was a conflict at that time, and he even spat at us. Hey, what a coincidence, I met him on the street yesterday!"

"How did you deal with him?"

"I followed him home, and then I told the neighbors that he had hidden weapons in his house!" The man laughed. "He was so scared that he almost knelt down. I asked him to carry out his belongings one by one for me to inspect. Hehe. , don’t tell me, I actually found two long knives! Then his whole family knelt down in front of me! "

There was laughter all around.

He Lingchuan knew that those were other squads of the Panlong Army.

The Panlong Army was stationed in the west city of Yuheng. There are many high-end courtyards here, where rich people live. Later, they were temporarily requisitioned by Panlong Army as a camp to avoid disturbing the lives of ordinary people in the city.

General Red also made a special announcement that as long as he is a good citizen, his life in Yuheng City will be protected.

Of course, the subtext is that the final interpretation of the word "good people" belongs to Panlong Army.

In the past few days, several major cities have returned to normal life and operation under the watchful eye of Panlongjun. Shops on the streets are open for business, and the flow of people in the streets has gradually increased.

The city began to get back on track, as if the battle to seize the country that lasted for more than half a month had never happened.

In fact, due to the speed of the Panlong Army's siege, only the palace was the only one who resisted. Even the capital's infrastructure and ecology were only slightly damaged, and it was relatively easy to repair.

After the Panlong Army has rested and replenished supplies in Yuheng City, it will set off and continue its return eastward. General Hong has sent out several scouts to detect Jin Ying's military situation.

This has also been the focus of heated discussion among the military in recent days. A small-cost victory made everyone full of expectations for the return to the motherland.

War is by no means simple, but He Lingchuan understands that the truth is far more complicated than that.

After eating the dumplings and drinking the soup, He Lingchuan climbed back to the roof and started playing the xun.

The mouse passing by the roof staggered when he heard this.

As a beginner, he still lacks notes and rhythm.

Hu Min rolled his eyes and said to the door: "Here we go again. The boss hasn't let us go these past few nights."

The door panel also whispered: "It would be better for him to play the flute."

If the xun blows poorly, it sounds like a ghost screaming, which is quite appropriate on this battlefield where people are dying all day long.

After fighting the battle, killing people, and administering medicine, He Lingchuan would start practicing musical instruments when he had nothing to do, euphemistically saying that military life requires music to spice things up.

There is no way, Master Sun will have to take an exam after returning this time.

The other teams also wanted to protest, but when they came closer, they found that it was Broken Blade that was making ghostly noises, not blowing a xun, then turned on its heels and turned back.

Fighting heroes are always privileged.

Fortunately, Broken Sword could not poison them for too long tonight, because a series of military whistles suddenly sounded in front:

"Gather, gather, major military information is announced!"

Major military situation? Everyone dropped what they were holding and quickly rushed to the west city square to gather.

There were originally a lot of buildings here, but most of them were destroyed in the street fighting. The Panlong Army simply sent people to raze them to the ground and create a square that can accommodate thousands of people.

Soon, thousands of people were in place, torches filled the sky, everyone stood upright, but the whole place was silent.

The red general, dressed in military uniform, walked out with one person.

The color of this man's clothes is different from Panlongcheng and Yuan Xiqiao.

Under the firelight, he looked very uneasy.

"This is the envoy sent by the capital. He comes to us first, and then he has to send a message to Panlong City!" The Red General introduced a few words, and then said to the envoy, "Come, please read the monarch's edict aloud. !”

ah? The envoy was stunned after hearing the second half of her words: "General, this order is only for you and Commander Zhong."

"Oh?" General Red stretched out his hand to him, "Then give it to me."

The messenger was very dissatisfied: "You should kneel down and accept it!"

The red general stretched out his hand to grab the edict, so quickly that the messenger didn't even react, she unfolded it and read it loudly.

It turned out that what the monarch ordered the envoys to come day and night to deliver was a rebuke, scolding Zhong Shengguang for raising troops privately and ruining diplomatic relations. He took the route to the country of Xiluo not to enhance the prestige of the country of Xiluo, but to invade his friends and neighbors and create powerful enemies on all sides. He could not With the heart of a king and father, his mother country was plunged into war and disputes.

He also said that Xiluo never issued a relocation order to Panlong City, so:

"Immediately return west with the Panlong Army to control our territory and not trample on our friends!" After the last sentence, the red general spread his hands and said, "I'm done reading."

There was a commotion in the audience, and everyone's eyes widened. Even the Gale Army, which had the strictest military discipline, couldn't help but look at each other.

This happened! They actively returned to the country, but the king actually ordered to reprimand them!

They sent out troops quickly and were invincible. The mother country was not proud but ashamed!

The king actually wants them to go back!

Return to an environment surrounded by enemies and isolated and helpless.

Willow whispered: "No way, really?"

The door panel said in a dull voice: "You bitch, don't let us go back!"

Complaints like this spread quickly among the army, and they no longer cared about the occasion.

The Shiluo envoy in front couldn't bear the angry looks they threw at him, and kept reaching out to wipe his sweat. "This is inconsistent with etiquette. General, you have overstepped your bounds!"

It was astonishing to see the red general. He was even more arrogant than the rumors said. He actually recited the monarch's order directly to the soldiers!

This was an important military mission and a major national event. When the monarch specially ordered him to deliver the edict, he asked Zhong Shengguang to retreat and no third person should be present.

This is good, this is good, thousands of pairs of ears have heard it!

These big-headed soldiers are all stupid. What do they know about national strategy?

He must report truthfully when he goes back!

The red general ignored him and only asked the soldiers in the audience: "Did you all hear clearly?"
