Chapter 64 Withdrawing the Garrison

It was very late when Gu Changyan and Xia Keyun returned to Daying from the iron mine, and she set off alone without resting for a while, heading for the nearby Meng County.

Before Sakura arrived, she had to finish the work first.

She was very familiar with the roads in Meng County, so she sneaked in during the dark and windy night, walked to the small row house on the edge of the county, and knocked on the door of the second house.

The old man put on his coat and came to open the door. Seeing it was Gu Changyan, he hurried in to welcome him in.Luo He got up in the middle of the night, and immediately rushed forward: "Sister Gu, you are finally back!"

Gu Changyan patted Luo He's head: "Well, I'm back, this time I'm not here to protect Mangcangyuan, but to attack Mangcangyuan."

Luo He raised his head and looked at her with big eyes blinking: "Sister Gu, is she going to help Da Xia fight against the Mang Cangyuan?" Although Meng County is located in a remote place, such a big thing as Gu Changyan's defection to the enemy has always been heard.

What's more, Gu Changyan and Xia Keyun lived in Meng County for a while, when others doubted the veracity of the rumor, Luo Hehe believed it without any doubt!

Whenever she thinks of breaking into the small house and seeing the dreamy demeanor of those two people, she will feel that capital cities like Xin'an and Ling'an are so unrestrained!

Meng County belongs to Nanze, but after all, it is far away from Xin'an and has been under the influence of the desert all year round, so they don't have a deep sense of belonging to Nanze. On the contrary, they belong to Mangcangyuan. Whoever can maintain the stability of Mangcangyuan will be The god of Meng County.Gu Changyan knew this well, and also knew Meng County's trust in her.

Otherwise, she would not have recovered so peacefully under Feng Yu's eyes in Meng County.

Luo He thought for a while and asked, "Does Sister Gu need my help?"

Gu Changyan patted her on the shoulder: "Yes, strong men in Meng County are hired to mine mines all year round. I need a few people who are familiar with mines and have researched them to help me do something in mines." She continued, "The remuneration must satisfy everyone, and we will send someone to escort everyone back safely."

Luo He looked blank: "But, isn't it true that mines are not opened during wars?"

"The reason for not opening mines during wars is because they are afraid of being harassed. It's not a matter of convention." Gu Changyan said with a smile, "I'll leave this matter to Sister Luohe."

Luo He blushed, and quickly waved his hands: "No trouble, no trouble, it is Luo He's honor that Sister Gu needs Luo He's help!" She rubbed her hands behind the hem of her skirt, "It's late at night, I'll go make it for Sister Gu. Snack, sister Gu must be hungry."

Before Gu Changyan had time to stop him, Luo He had already run to the kitchen covering his face.

The supper at Luohe's family was very simple. Gu Changyan ate a few mouthfuls and went back after talking to her about finding the miners. on.

Gu Changyan went directly to Xia Keyun's military tent, and Yuxuan just came out of it.

"General Gu, you are here." Yu Xuan nodded towards her, "Your Majesty will not rest until you come back."

"I see." Gu Changyan stepped into the tent, then turned around again, "Yuxuan, please transfer a thousand elite soldiers to me tomorrow, I have a mission."

"Okay." Yuxuan nodded in agreement, then quietly pointed inside, signaling her to deal with Xia Keyun first.

She didn't fall asleep, and was lying on the table alone playing with the brush. When she saw Gu Changyan coming, she immediately stood up and ran forward, stopping in front of Gu Changyan. She wanted to pounce on him, but she sniffed: "Changyan Where did you go to eat behind my back?"

Gu Changyan smiled: "Luohe is too polite, let me have a supper."

Xia Keyun carefully looked at her from head to toe, then pouted and asked, "Why didn't Luohe keep you overnight?"

The surging jealousy, Gu Changyan spread his hands, turned and went out: "Then I'll go back to Meng County."

"Come back!" Xia Keyun was furious, Gu Changyan obediently stopped, "Who allowed you to leave?"

Seeing that she was about to lose her composure, Gu Changyan stepped forward to touch her head, hugged her in his arms, looked down at Xia Keyun in front of him, and resisted the embarrassment that surfaced: "Then Yun won't let me go at night?"

Xia Keyun leaned into her arms: "You are not allowed to leave without my permission!"

Gu Changyan hugged her tightly: "Well, let's not go."

……

Early the next morning, Yuxuan assembled a thousand elite soldiers for her.

Zhao Shu was also in the camp. Although he had no objection to Gu Changyan leading the army this time, he was deeply disturbed by the return of the Queen to the Mangcangyuan.

"General Gu first came to my camp in Daxia, and if he didn't attack the Nanze army, what do you want these 1000 people for?" Zhao Shu asked.

Zhao Shu is a reliable general, Gu Changyan, who has fought against Zhao Shu for many years, knows this well.

"Subduing the enemy without fighting is the best policy." Gu Changyan said with a smile, "A thousand elite soldiers are useful."

"Since General Gu lowered me to Daxia, he shouldn't hide his tactics." Zhao Shu said again.

"General Zhao doesn't believe in Gu's strength?" Gu Changyan asked rhetorically.

"I have been defeated by you. If I don't believe in your strength, I am denying myself." Zhao Shu said calmly, "I am just deeply worried about the safety of Your Majesty. General Gu has saved Your Majesty many times, so he should be more serious than me." Worried about His Majesty's safety."

Gu Changyan smiled: "When I came out of Ling'an, I promised that I would definitely protect His Majesty's safety. Even if I die, she won't be hurt at all."

"So," Zhao Shu looked at the people gathered in front of him, "Where is this going?"

A sly smile appeared on Gu Changyan's face, and suddenly whispered something in Zhao Shu's ear.

Zhao Shu was shocked: "Is this... doable?"

She drew out her sword and pointed to the sky: "Assemble, everyone, follow Yuxuan to the mine!"

A thousand elite soldiers quietly left the camp, and at this time, the old miner that Luohe was looking for for her also left Meng County and quietly went to the mine.

Gu Changyan went out again, Mangcang was originally her territory, and she was too familiar with it.

She goes to meet Jang Hem and Yu Ha, her old men.

The Mangcang Plain was still as quiet as ever, except that it was slightly empty after the snow had melted under the sun.Trees grew on the dwarf hills, and countless heroic souls were buried behind each hill.Some are her old subordinates, and some are enemies who died under her hands.However, by this time, it is already unclear whether it is an enemy or a friend.

There was still the sour smell of rotting corpses in the air, and there were bones on the ground that had been bitten out by wild beasts. In her eyes, she didn't feel moved at all by this scene.

"General Gu!" The two generals came together, they are now working with Chen Lin, the military power of the army is in Chen Lin's hands, only the [-] former garrison soldiers still obey them.

When Yu Ha came back from Xin'an, he was taken to the desert and rescued by Gu Changyan. At that time, Gu Changyan asked him to return to Mangcangyuan and warned him not to surrender his military power.

Now that the military power is still in hand, Gu Changyan has finally returned.

The old subordinates were very moved when they met each other.

It's just that Gu Changyan changed into a battle armor back then, and he still looks in full bloom.

"General, why did you bring Xia Jun to attack Mangcangyuan?"

"General, have you forgotten that Mangcangyuan is the place you have been protecting all along?"

Even if they knew Feng Yu's plan well and knew that he had driven Gu Changyan into a corner, they still wanted to ask her, would she be able to deal with these old subordinates of hers?

When the large-scale attack really starts, Chen Lin will definitely let the [-] original garrison take the lead, and fight Xia Jun to the death.

Gu Changyan was silent: "I won't do it, and I won't do it."

Zhang Hun and Yu Ha looked at each other in dismay: "Could it be that the general surrendered falsely?"

"It's true." Gu Changyan replied simply, "I will still take down Mang Cangyuan."

"This……"

"The [-] troops stationed in Mangcangyuan, because of Gu Changyan, as long as they stay in Mangcangyuan, they will definitely die." She cut to the point, "If there is a war, if Daxia wants to take down Mangcangyuan, they will definitely die. If there is no war, At that time, in the name of passively responding to the battle, he will also be sentenced to death by Feng Yu. Now there is only one way, maybe not only will he not die, but he will also be named an official and a noble."

Zhang Heng and Yu Ha have always trusted her extremely.

"Feng Yu wanted to garrison Mangcangyuan before, but now I defected. He wanted to seek power and usurp the throne, so he teamed up with Chongying. The Cangxi soldiers transferred from Cangxi had already supported Mangcangyuan in the name of going south, but in fact they just took a detour to Xin'an. So The Nanze Dynasty is at stake, once Feng Yu succeeds, the consequences will be disastrous."

Zhang Hun and Yu Ha looked at each other: "We know about Cangxi's soldiers going south, but we don't know what the intention is. The current situation in Mangcangyuan does not need Cangxi's support. We were still discussing this matter yesterday."

"It's just a cover-up for Feng Yu's transfer of troops to Xin'an." Gu Changyan analyzed, "What do you two think?"

The two of them were in Mangcangyuan, waiting for Gu Changyan's reply.They knew Gu Changyan better than any soldier.

Now that she came here with this embarrassing identity, how many soldiers are willing to believe her?

More importantly, he, Zhang Heng and Yu Ha, believe her or not!

She looked at them quietly, and she hoped from the bottom of her heart that her [-] former garrison would be safe and not become a knife in Feng Yu's hand.

After a while, Yu Ha first looked up at her: "General Gu, I believe you!"

She smiled, and then heard Yu Ha say: "Because we are the original garrison of Mangcangyuan, if we didn't have [-] soldiers in our hands, Chen Lin would have thought of a way to kill us, I believe you, just tell us, we How to do?"

Only then did Zhang Heng nod: "I believe you too! General Gu really wants to take down Mangcangyuan, and the 15 Nanze Army has no chance of winning! It's better to fight than to save your life under Chen Lin, a mediocre general!"

Only then did Gu Changyan open his mouth: "The [-] original garrison troops all came from Xin'an City. There are family members, old and young, all in Xin'an City. They have been stationed in the vast plain all year round, and they miss their family very much. Although Feng Yu hasn't come yet , but his Sima Zhao’s heart is well known. He left Mangcangyuan with [-] troops to go to Xin’an, and the Cangxi army dispatched by Chongying could only stay in Mangcangyuan, otherwise Da Xia would continue to go north once he broke through Mangcangyuan , to encircle the Cangxi Army, Feng Yu and Chong Ying dare not gamble on this."

"What is the reason for the former garrison to return to Xin'an?" Yu Ha asked.

"King Qin!" Gu Changyan clenched his fist and replied, "This is not an excuse, but, Feng Yu's plot must be stopped when Fifty Thousand Mang Cangyuan returns to the capital, King Qin!"
