Chapter 484 Questions

After saying that the punishment for the two waves of people, Li Gong lowered his head and glanced at them a few times, then looked up at the surroundings. He saw that Liu Qi had appeared quietly nearby, but because he was dressed simply and did not bring a few guards, he was not discovered by others.

When he saw Liu Qi, Li Gong remembered the second half of the words Niu said. "Your Highness, Lieutenant Liu said that this method can only be delayed for a while. In the end, it is necessary to make a decision on whether to allow them to stay before the final solution; otherwise, even if Xia Chuantao and others dare not disturb Your Highness near the big tent, they will continue to use other methods to spy on this matter."

Thinking of this, Li Gong coughed and said, "As for the reason why you make trouble in front of the orphan tent, Gu also knows. Since that's the case, Gu will make the final decision."

Hearing this, everyone kneeling on the ground and the soldiers watching nearby opened their eyes wide and looked at His Highness right away, with both ears erected, fearing that they would miss the important news.

'Your Highness will definitely let the low-ranking general who echoes the return order back home and go back.' Liu Qi also looked at Li Gong, thinking in his heart.

The idea he gave Li Gong was indeed very clever, and could solve the problem of Xia Chuantao and others surrounding the tent, but it would also bring a side effect: because of fighting, Li Gong would feel disgusted with both groups of people.

Since they had a disgust towards them, Li Gong would not want to see their wish come true; whether it was Xia Chuantao and others who knelt down and begged, or Eugene and others who came to push, they all hoped to lead troops to Khurasan to kill the cannibals to take revenge.

So Li Gong would not agree to them to go to Khorasan. Eugene and others would be excused by him to stay on the north bank of the Wuhu River to "receive" and Xia Chuantao and others would be legitimately driven away by the return home order; and this was also the goal that Liu Qi hoped to achieve.

‘Mit, don’t blame me. You are the only son in your family. If you die in battle, how sad will your parents be? When the Great Cannibals hit Luzhou before, you shouldn’t let you go to the battlefield. It was just that the soldiers were short of soldiers at that time and could not pull you out of the army. But at this time the soldiers were completely enough, and you had fought with the Great Cannibals several times, and you were worthy of Anxi, so it was time to go back.’

Liu Qi looked at Danfu, who was also watching not far away. 'You should go back too. Although you are not the only son in your family, you, like Renault, have not fallen out of several wars, and are worthy of Anxi.'

"Dear soldiers," Li Gong spoke at this time. "No matter what decision Gu made, there will be people who will be dissatisfied. Gu can understand it, but he will never tolerate anyone who makes trouble. As long as someone dares to make trouble again in the military camp, Gu will deprive him of all his official positions and rewards, and also write them into the documents to spread all the cities in Anxi, so that everyone can know why this person was deposed!"

"I don't dare!" Hearing the punishment, all the soldiers were shocked and immediately agreed.

After saying this, Li Gong glanced around again. Seeing that the people kneeling on the ground changed their faces, all the onlookers agreed, and then continued: "So, Gu's final decision was,"

‘All low-ranking military generals who meet the order to return home will return to their hometown.’ Liu Qi thought.

"All low-ranking military generals can stay outside Kangju City!" Li Gong said firmly.

"Thank you for your kindness!" Xia Chuantao was stunned for a moment, then shouted with joyful face, and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!" The rest of the people also kowtowed while shouting.

However, Eugene and others all looked in disbelief. They had been useless for a long time, but they were useless and lost their three months' salary in vain?

Immediately, someone subconsciously wanted to shout out. However, before he really shouted out, he had already come back to his senses, took back the words he wanted to say, or was stopped by the people around him.

Your Highness said that if someone dares to cause trouble again, deprive all his official positions and rewards, he will also write them into documents to spread all the cities in Anxi, so that everyone can know why they were deposed. At this time, he shouted, and he will inevitably be considered a riot and killed by His Highness.

Moreover, Eugene and others who are still sober clearly know that since Your Highness made a decision in public, it will never change unless there is a major change. No matter how they cause trouble, they cannot prompt Your Highness to change his mind.

"Your Highness is really a magnanimous lord." Eugene said. Since you cannot change your mind, it is better to praise him, which may also make him have a better impression of himself and increase the possibility of going to Khorasan.

"Your Highness is magnanimous!" Others followed Eugene to push, and the soldiers nearby said one after another.

"Okay, since this matter has been resolved, let's all go." Li Gong waved to everyone and said. Then he whispered in the ear of a guard, and then turned back to the tent.

"Yes." Everyone agreed, and the onlookers returned to their residence in groups of three or three, chatting while walking. Most of them looked fluttering and were amazed by the twists and turns of the plot. Especially those who saw the beginning and the end felt that it was not in vain and it was very worth it.

Eugene and others stood up, looked at Xia Chuantao and others who were still kneeling, and walked towards their tent without saying a word.

"It's so great!" After Li Gong walked into the tent, Mit finally couldn't bear it and shouted happily.

"Silence!" Xia Chuantao hurriedly reminded him and whispered: "After you go back, it's okay no matter how you shout, but you can't shout here anymore."

"Yes, yes." Mitt answered in a low volume, but he couldn't help but feel the joy between his eyebrows and eyes. Not only him, but everyone, including Xia Chuantao who reminded Mitt.

"Let's go back first." Xia Chuantao said again, and stood up from the ground. Everyone stood up one after another.

"Thank you, Captain Xia." Several more people saluted him.

"You don't have to thank me."

"You must thank Captain Xia for not thanking Captain Xia." One person said: "If Captain Xia hadn't come to the high school to kneel down in front of His Highness's grand tent, His Highness would probably not agree to the request. It was this move that made His Highness discover that our army was available, so we would have left us."

"That's right, that's right." Others also agreed.

"You thank the wrong person," Xia Chuantao agreed that they begged for their purpose this time, but said with a smile: "This method was not something I thought of, but something Song Wu thought of."

"It turned out that Captain Song was thought of." The speaker looked at Song Wu again and bowed again: "Thank you, Captain Song."

"You don't have to thank me. I'm just to stay." Song Wu said in a muffled voice.

When Xia Chuantao heard this, he immediately winked, meaning that he would be better at others and would be beneficial to the future. Song Wu saw his wink, but did not obey. He joined the army to avenge his wife and children, and he didn't care about anything else at all. The scene was a little awkward.

"Dirang, what's the use of thanking me?" Cao Fanghao suddenly laughed and said, "We don't talk about it, you have to give some real thanks."

"When my restaurant starts again, Captain Xia, Captain Song, and you guys, you never need to spend money to eat at my restaurant." The man said immediately.

He was Dimash. On that day, he was commanding the soldiers to clean the camp, and suddenly he heard about this. Dimash was also the only son of the family. If the low-ranking general was suitable for the order of return to the hometown, he would also return to the city of Thunder Leaf. Therefore, he immediately asked for help and asked His Highness to order them to stay.

The first person he thought of was his sister. Although Dania might not be able to meet Li Gong, Li Bixiao would definitely meet her. Moreover, this matter has a great relationship with them and it is not a big deal for Li Gong. The princess would most likely agree; if she asks you, your highness would probably agree.

But he quickly rejected this idea. His sister had long wanted to go home, but because he was still in the army, he stayed in the army. If he asked her sister to ask for something, what she would ask for might be in the opposite direction of her.

Then he wanted to ask Liu Qi again. But when he thought that Mite and Liu Qi were a hundred times closer than him, if he was useful, Mite would not kneel in front of His Highness’s tent, so he could only give up this idea. He thought repeatedly, but he didn’t expect any other good way, so he could only kneel down and beg. Fortunately, he finally achieved his goal.

"This is what you said!" Cao Fanghao smiled again, "After the battle with the cannibals is completely over, I will go to your restaurant for a drink, but I won't give you a penny."

"Don't worry, you won't charge a penny!" Dimarsh patted his chest and promised.

"Then we will not pay any more if we have the chance to go to Suye City in the future." Others also said.

"Don't worry, I won't charge money." Dimarsh agreed. Seeing Renault talking in the crowd, he suddenly pointed at him and said, "Renault, what are you calling! Don't forget that the winery is opened again and it is our two partners."

"Oh, I forgot!" Renault slapped his head and said pitifully: "Can I withdraw my stock now?"

"No!" Dimash said firmly.

"Oh! I would have stopped you if I had known it." Renault said again.

"Haha!" Everyone laughed.

After joking for a while, everyone separated and returned to their tents. Mite and others planned to go to Cao Fanghao's tent to celebrate with wine; Xia Chuantao stopped him. "Your Highness has decided to send troops. You still have wine, which is also a troublemaker! If you don't want to go to Khurashan, just eat!

When the battle with the cannibal is over, let’s have a good wine again.” Xia Chuantao said again.

"Okay." Everyone agreed and dispersed.

...

...

"All the soldiers have dispersed?" Li Gong sat in front of the tent and asked the guards.

"Your Highness, you have dispersed. Xia Chuantao and others spoke happily outside the fence for a while, and finally left." The Ma Shiwei replied.

"I understand, you go down." Li Gong's expression did not change much, so he ordered him.

"Yes." Guard Ma bowed and bowed and left.

"Report to Your Highness, Lieutenant Liu is here." The guard Ma retreated, and another guard walked over and said.

"He is here? Come in quickly!" Li Gong said quickly.

"Don't bother with Guard Zhang." As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Qi's voice came from behind.

"Liu Qi, you are here." Li Gong stood up and said to Liu Qi.

"I pay homage to Your Highness." Liu Qi saluted.

The two exchanged a few greetings, Li Gong ordered the guard to bring a chair for Liu Qi to sit down, and then sat back on the table, and asked: "Did the King of Kang Guo agree?"

"Agree." Liu Qi said: "He promised to send 5,000 troops, 5,000 civilians, and provide 100,000 stones of food to the army."

"Okay, okay." Li Gong said repeatedly.

Today, Liu Qi went to the city to discuss the sending troops and grain with the king and ministers of Kang State. The location of Kang State is Samarkand in later generations. Before modern times, it has always been one of the two most prosperous cities in Central Asia. Kang State is also the richest and most populous country among the nine surnames of Zhaowu.

Since he was rich and had a lot of people, he naturally had to send more troops and grain. But of course the king of Kang State was unwilling to send more troops. The envoys sent before were unable to convince him, so he sent Liu Qi to take action. If Liu Qi could not successfully persuade him, he would have to talk to him by himself. Fortunately, he did not use it.

"In addition, there has been news that the three countries of Shi Kingdom, the United States and He Kingdom have also agreed." Liu Qi added.

"What a good thing." Li Gong smiled.

"Your Highness, my subordinates believe that when the army attacks Khurashan, it will probably have to pass through He Country. He does not have to send the food from He Country to Kangju City. They will stay in this treasury and take it to Wuhu River when the army passes."

"You can decide on such a small matter, just don't let the soldiers go hungry."

"Yes. I will order after I go back." Liu Qi agreed.

The two of them talked about the matter of Zhaowu's nine-ranked country sending troops and food. They were both optimistic and felt that there would be no country that would refuse. They would just give more and less. As long as they could reach the bottom line, they would be fine.

After talking about this, Li Gong stopped for the time being, picked up the cup and took a sip, raised his head again, and told Liu Qi that the other two difficult things he had been thinking about. He thought about this matter for a long time but couldn't think of how to solve it, so he could only discuss it with Liu Qi.

But before he could say anything, Liu Qi said, "Your Highness, I have something to ask for advice from you."

"What's the matter?"

"I wonder why Your Highness allows low-ranking military generals who meet the order to return home to stay in Kangju City today?"
