Chapter 77: The fighter has lost

Jin Lan sat in front of the window and wrote to Li Xia: I miss you, sincerely. He wanted to go out to investigate the situation of the Jiehe River again, and did not take me there, saying that I did not lead the soul army. In fact, I do not have the ability of you, and cannot fight side by side with him, which will only be a burden to him. I feel wronged and want to talk to you, but you are not by my side...

Gu Du led five hundred light cavalry out of the pass, about fifteen miles away from the border river. When he saw the enemy's whistle probe, Gu Du urged his horse to gallop quickly, his bow was full of moon, and he shot the whistle probe down with one arrow.

The shooting of the sentry detectives was just to avoid the enemy's advance deployment. In fact, they were seen by the enemy when they were close to three miles.

The sound of trumpets sounded, and the digging workers climbed up to the north shore and fled north. The enemy defenders lined up, bent their bows and arrows, waiting for Gu Du and the others to approach.

Gu walked to a mile and stopped, stood on the horse's back and looked out. The boundary river was wider, about two feet long, and it seemed that it was going to dig wider.

Gu Du sighed in his heart that the fighter opportunity had been lost. Even if he sent troops again, the boundary river could no longer be crossed by the arrival of the army.

Such a wide trench, as long as you lay spikes or firewood in the trench, the army will be like an ant after going down the trench. Instead, it is better to wait for the boundary river to draw water and build a floating bridge to build a safer bridge.

Gu Du led the army back, but this time the enemy didn't say a word. He scolded Gu Du for two night attacks, killing thousands of people. Gu Du's reputation for revenge has spread.

When he returned to Zhenbei Pass, Gu Du told Wu Renxiong about the situation. Wu Renxiong smiled and said, "Then let's rest, anyway, you can't fight."

Gu Du knew that Wu Renxiong also had resentment in his heart. He should have led troops to meet the enemy when the enemy first arrived. Even if the court reinforced 30,000 yuan, it would be fine. This battle would greatly damage the Zeguo's vitality, but Emperor Ling didn't use troops.

But then again, if you are blocked by the boundary river, you can't see the situation of the enemy camp at all, and you can't see the situation after the enemy camp. Perhaps Zeguo has moved south, but they just don't know it yet.

Gu Du asked Wu Renxiong: "Brother, the detailed works of Zeguo are all over the court and the country, so why don't we do it in Zeguo?"

Wu Renxiong replied: "I don't know whether the court sent it, but I have sent it, either dead or surrendered to the enemy. Anyway, I have never received a piece of spy."

Gu Du asked in confusion: "Why is this happening?"

Wu Renxiong replied: "One of the things outside the pass are fierce. As far as I know, what they lack is a capable man like Master Chu. If they really use soldiers to fight against soldiers..."

Wu Renxiong shook his head and said nothing further.

Gu Du nodded, so the Soul Control Master is so powerful.

Wu Renxiong also said: "In addition, I have tortured the rebel prisoners. They said that the country is united and that since the establishment of the dynasty, the Dongfang clan has been virtuous and wise, and governed the country with benevolence and filial piety."

Gu Du was silent, and Wu Renxiong said again: "Also, from the grassland, as long as we avoid three passes and cross the mountains, we can integrate into our people. After our people left the pass, we were endless and there was not even a place to hide. Can we tell at a glance that it was a pass?"

Gu Du nodded. This is right, maybe this is the main reason.

Wu Renxiong said again: "And there is an ice field in the distance of Zeguo. There is neither road nor pointing sign on the grassland. Our people will most likely starve to death in the wilderness before they can find Zeguo."

Gu Du stood up and said, "I understand, I'm going back."

Back at the side courtyard, Gu Du asked Jin Lan: "Madam, do you know Dongfang Buwen?"

Jin Lan was stunned and replied, "I know the main priest of the Zeguo Yulingsi."

Gu Du asked, "What does he look like?"

Jin Lan replied: "I am over 60 years old, thin and dry, with gray hair and beard, and wearing a black robe."

Gu Du nodded. It was really Dongfang Buwen, so he told me about what Dongfang Buwen did.

Jin Lan smiled but said nothing.

Gu Du didn't ask any more, and instead said, "The general told me just now that the emperor of Zeguo is Dongfang clan. You said... the high priest's Tong Shi Dongfang Xuan... He has been with the high priest for many years? Why is it still the Tong Shi?"

Jin Lan whispered: "You can't doubt others just because of their surnames. There are more people in the southern border and the Dongfang surname."

Gu Du said: "I didn't say I doubted him, I just thought it was a little strange."

Jin Lan said softly: "Don't say that, although the emperor gave him a marriage, who knows that one day he will be suspicious, so it's better to talk less."

Gu Du said, "I didn't tell anyone else, didn't you tell me this?"

Jin Lan said softly: "Tell me less. I've said too much. Maybe when I'll talk to outsiders, I don't know what trouble will cause."

Gu Du smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to my wife. The old saying goes. If you have a good wife in your family, you won't suffer any trouble."

Jin Lanyan smiled, Gu Du pulled her up, sat down beside the couch, and asked softly: "Madam, what kind of person is Zedi?"

Jin Lan thought for a moment and replied softly: "As far as I know, Emperor Ze is kind and kind, hardworking and thrifty, and respecting the virtuous and the nobles."

Gu Du frowned, and Jin Lan said softly: "Husband, I have no other meaning. I said this only when you asked me."

Gu Du said softly: "You misunderstood. I just wondered why the spirit masters in Zeguo are so weak. By the way, what is Dongfang Buwen's ability?"

Jin Lan replied softly: "It's not as good as Master Chu."

Gu Du asked softly: "Do you know the reason?"

Jin Lan replied softly: "Maybe because the southern area is beautiful and the mountains and waters are abundant, so people's natural spiritual power is high, right?"

Gu Du nodded and sighed.

Jin Lan asked, "Why did you sigh because of your husband?"

Gu Du laughed, he didn't know whether it was to miss the opportunity to fight? Or for Zeguo.

In the north, Dongfangsheng did not follow the will of Emperor Ze that he was not allowed to support the spirits, and personally wore mourning clothes and moved south. The army and people followed him after the hearse stretched for hundreds of miles, all of which were the same as the heaven and earth.

The emperor has no family affairs, the emperor has no selfless love, and the death of the late emperor is the tragedy of the country and the driving force of the country. When the country moves south, Dongfangsheng must show it to the soldiers and the people with a kindness and filial heart.

According to the grassland war report, Lingguo did not send a large army to conquer, and the boundary river was as wide as two meters wide. However, even so, the migration of the whole country to the south is unpredictable, so the whole country must be united in one's heart and virtue to work together.

What is the cold weather? What is the cold wind? How many soldiers have left their homes and businesses to move south today, running thousands of miles, taking blood on the battlefield and burying their bones in a foreign land. As Emperor Ze, can't he even endure this little bit of suffering?
