As Lan Jue said, they returned to the defense and could not return to the capital.

The troops of the Eastern Tang Dynasty traveled all the way lightly, abandoned their luggage, and returned to the capital with all their strength. Of course, they did not know that after they left the camp, the soldiers who left behind to deal with the luggage were suddenly surrounded by "foreign races" who rushed out. Gu Linzhi had already integrated the "foreign races" on the border of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and was just waiting to grab the supplies from the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

"It's all right this time. Counting the food and grass that Mr. Gu raised from various sources, Xitang will spend this east day. I think there will be no problem."

Gu Linzhi smiled and waved his hands: "Mr. Chu's plan is better, I never thought of this kind of business method."

Li Shu couldn't help being curious: "What else did Mr. Chu order you?"

Gu Linzhi took out a piece of paper and said, "Before leaving, Mr. Chu gave me a stack of recipes."

"Recipe?" Li Shu was stunned for a long time. Gu Linzhi was obviously trying to whet his appetite. After a while, he laughed and explained——

"This is the recipe of how to cook locusts." Gu Linzhi said, "Mr. also named it 'Hundred Insects Feast', locusts, centipedes, scorpions... In short, they are the usual insects, cooked in various ways, Make delicious food, and then send people everywhere to promote it. The husband called this "marketing campaign", and wrote an "advertisement", saying why Xitang Yinying is brave and good at fighting, it is all because of this supplement! For a while, Gu was in Businesses all over the country have received a large number of orders for insect banquets, especially in Shangdu, where Zhongzhou has a wealth of real estate, and there is plenty of food to exchange for insects."

Li Shu stared, unable to recall for a long time: "This is really... a fantastic idea."

Anyway, there is no quality supervision bureau in this era, and regardless of false advertisements, Chu Xiang played a profiteer as a cameo, and went to the imperial capital to boast about novelty and dark cuisine. In addition, Mrs. Bai Mo, as the oiran of the Spring River Pavilion, is quite able to lead in the upper class of the imperial capital. Fashion.As soon as Yu Chaozhou camp saw those fat and big locusts, Chu Xiang had already come up with this idea and sent a letter to the imperial capital. Bai Mo was really self-taught when he started propaganda. Within a few days, the entire upper class society in the capital The "feast of a hundred insects" became popular.

After laughing, Li Shu still couldn't help sighing: "When the people on the border were displaced, the nobles of Shangdu could spend a lot of money to buy these culprits who made the people starve to death just because of curiosity."

……

The vanguard army of the Eastern Tang Dynasty galloped all the way, rushing to the capital at full speed.

The valley between the two mountains is dangerous, but it is the shortest way back to the capital. The commander of the Eastern Tang Dynasty naturally guessed that if there was an ambush, it must be in this place, so the forward troops were careful and vigilant, passing through this mountain road with 12 vigilance.

However, all is well.

Chu Xiang felt that Tang Mo had the potential of a trickster in the use of troops. He ignored the vanguard troops passing by and ordered them all to hold back, watching the piece of fat slip away from his eyes.

"Prepare, the scouts reported that the main force of the Eastern Tang Dynasty is still fifteen miles away."

Chu Xiang hugged his favorite quilt and leaned against the window of the carriage to watch the excitement. The Eastern Tang Army saw through Lan Jue's surprise attack on the capital and hurried back to help. As much as they can rush out, facing the elite soldiers of the Eastern Tang Dynasty passing below the valley, if they make a surprise attack at this time, their combat power will be greatly weakened, but Tang Mo actually held back.

I have to say a word of admiration, after enduring for so many years, Tang Mo's temperament can almost be like a mountain collapses in front of him without moving, he is the first character who can directly stand on his own without polishing.

In contrast, Zhu Jiu didn't understand very well. He asked, "Sir, let the vanguard go, wouldn't they attack the king?"

"The soldiers of the Shanshui Camp are not as good as your Silver Eagles, but they won't be defeated by these more than 5000 forwards. What's more, how do you know that your lord is not ready?"

Chu Xiang smiled, and took the teacup from Bai An.

The scouts reported to the main force of Eastern Tang that the vanguard battalion had passed through the valley safely and everything was fine, so the commander of Eastern Tang calmed down a little and ordered the troops to speed up. When they reached the center of the valley, there was a sharp sound of wind coming from the sky.

"No, there is an ambush!!!"

The feathered arrows are all hollow, and when they fell in mid-air, the sharp whistling sound was long and piercing, which was frightening. Xitang archers tied the fire and thunder to the arrows, and took advantage of the gap between the loud arrows to disturb people's hearts, and shot a series of arrows. The army below, bang bang bang—the flames exploded on the flat ground, and the sound of killing in the valley shook the sky. The commander of Dongtang raised his head and saw a row of dazzling silver figures on the cliff.

"Silver...Silver Eagle!!!"

The prestige of the silver-white god of death is heart-rending. When he was ambushed suddenly, he found out that the ambush was actually the silver eagle. The army of the Eastern Tang Dynasty was in chaos. Their real trump card of the Eastern Tang Dynasty—the heavy cavalry was defeated by the silver eagle in the battle of Pinglincheng. Now, when these ordinary soldiers heard that the silver eagles were coming, they were completely lost, and they didn't even have time to see clearly—there were actually only more than 100 of those silver eagles, and the people standing behind the silver eagles were not silver armor and white clothes, but ordinary Western soldiers. Tang soldiers.

The two sides fought hand to hand in the valley, but the two sides in this battle did not seem to be of the same magnitude at all.

Eastern Tang had already found out that he was being calculated by others, and his heart was impetuous. When he was ambushed suddenly, his mental momentum had already been lost. However, the soldiers of Western Tang had just succeeded in suppressing the chaos, and their morale was high.

Chi Yuan, who has just trained for a few days, has already achieved initial results. The female soldiers are carrying basic medicine boxes and bandages, and they are shuttled on the battlefield. As long as the injured soldiers look up, they will soon see that they are rushing The red kite female soldier, even though she simply sprinkled the medicine powder to stop bleeding and relieve pain, and then hastily bandaged it, the panic in the soldier's heart quickly disappeared.

Just this simple change can already make them gradually realize that they are not cannon fodder. In the eyes of their monarch, they are not ants who can be sacrificed and abandoned at will. Their bravery will be remembered and will be remembered. To be appreciated, when they are unfortunate enough to be wounded, and not to be cruelly left to die on the battlefield.

——Actually, the Chiyuan female soldiers are not gentle at all. They have long been honed into blood-stained roses with spikes in the dark years. A soldier was stabbed in the shoulder and was screaming in pain. Yuan San packed his wounds, and gave him a big mouth with his backhand.

"Howl, you can't die!"

The heroic female soldier kicked him back to the battlefield with disgust on his face. The soldier touched the bandaged shoulder, blushed suddenly, roared and rushed towards the enemy again, trying to restore the face he had just lost.

Chu Xiang saw everything in his eyes, but smiled and said nothing.

He was still holding the teacup, leaning against the window of the carriage, but there was a beam of light in his hand, and Lan Jue's holographic projection was floating there. "Projection", "Remote Video Communication" and other concepts were explained one by one, but after he finished explaining, he saw Zhu Jiu and the others next to him, looking like gods.

——Being called Yinghuo Xingjun, although he scored two points, Renren is used to it. There is no way, who made the gap between them a huge gap in time and space between two different civilization levels.

"Your Majesty." Chu Xiang stared at Lan Jue, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, with joy that he didn't realize in his eyes, and he said, "The 5000 people in the forward battalion of Dongtang have already passed. It’s time to appear around the capital of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.”

In fact, Xie Zhiwei's calculations were accurate to the minute, but Chu Xiang felt that it would be too bullying to say it out. After all, this is not an interstellar battlefield, and every second counts.

"Well, I see." Lan Jue nodded, but then he said in a bad tone, "Pull the collar of your clothes!"

"Uh?"

Chu Xiang was taken aback, and subconsciously stretched out her hand to touch her shoulder. She rolled around in her sleep just now, and this kind of toga with long sleeves is easy to tear apart, and now half of her collarbone is exposed.

Lan Jue stared at his neckline gloomyly, and her eyes slid back and forth along his elegant neck. Chu Xiang, who was overwhelmed with complacency, immediately sat upright, fastened the loose clothes again, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, The minister is disrespectful."

Lan Jue glared at him, and said, "I'm not here, do you let Zhu Jiubaining and the others look at you in such disheveled clothes!?"

"..." Chu Xiang was stunned for a while, thinking that Lan Jue was angry because she was out of shape and violated etiquette, but unexpectedly...

For a while, Chu Xiang was extremely helpless, and Xie Zhiwei had already become crazy from laughing on the channel: "My God hahahaha—— Lord Lan, you got the script wrong, right? Ha ha ha ha--"

"Shut up, Xie Zhiwei!" After speaking, Chu Xiang directly pinched Xie Zhiwei's signal in the channel, and locked him in the small black room.

He was the only one left in the carriage, Zhu Jiu and the others had already slipped away somewhere, Chu Xiang lowered his head and laughed, and slowly opened his neckline again.

"Your Majesty..." Chu Xiang smiled at the corners of his eyes, with a slight blush, "I belong to Your Majesty, how would they dare to look at them on weekdays?"

This sentence was said in a thousand and one thousand ways, Chu Xiang was clearly teasing Lan Jue on purpose, but after he finished speaking, he also blushed belatedly, so that there was a clear tremor at the end of the last sentence.

This sentence is far more impactful than the messy neckline. Lan Jue almost couldn't help stretching out his hand, and gently stroked along the outline of the holographic projection, as if he could really feel the temperature of the person opposite, he suddenly raised the corner of his mouth , Said: "Okay, you can remember this sentence."

Chu Xiang's eyes moved slightly, and she turned her head slightly, as if she was putting her cheek on Lan Jue's palm.

He said softly, "Yeah."

……

As Chu Xiang said, when midnight approached, the vanguard battalion of the Eastern Tang charged all the way, rushing to the capital with murderous intent, intending to attack the Western Tang army at night.

However, when they arrived, right in front of them, outside the Xitang camp, white-clothed and silver-armored cavalrymen lined up neatly, with masks covering their faces covering their expressions. , a sneer on his lips was clear.

Lan Jue chuckled, and shouted loudly: "I've been waiting for a long time, everyone has had a hard journey, if you put down your weapons, you'll still have warm wine to treat you, if you're obsessed—"

Behind him, the Xitang army drew their knives out of their sheaths in one order, and the world was full of chills.

Fiery fire and cold iron, the army of the Western Tang Dynasty was shrouded in a low-pitched murderous intent. The commander of the vanguard battalion of the Eastern Tang Dynasty was inattentive and almost stepped into the mud pit with his horse. The adjutants soon discovered that the commander was sweating heavily.

Lan Jue continued to smile, but his eyes scanned the audience indifferently. He said, "East and West Tangs were originally a family. Today's Jing Ronghan is just a person who deceives the world and steals his name. When my Lan family was suffering, he broke his promise and took advantage of the opportunity." Stealing my land from the Tang Kingdom, has he done anything to make the people of the Tang Kingdom praise him all these years in power?"

Jing Ronghan was born in the army, but governing the country is not about marching and fighting. The soldiers of the Eastern Tang Dynasty knew that the life of the elders in their hometown was difficult and had not changed for many years. They joined the army only because Jing Ronghan valued the army. It is possible to mix a full meal.

Lan Jue raised his silver gun and pointed at the capital city not far away: "What can you gain by fighting here? Your false lord, regardless of the overall situation, first sent you to the border to try to capture aliens and sell them into slaves. But in the end, isn’t he the only one who enjoys the money? You throw your heads and blood, and what you get in return is just the enjoyment of the lord. Now that the country is in danger, he has locked the city gates, regardless of whether the people in the city will suffer from hunger due to food shortages. , refused to surrender, and refused to fight with the king in an upright manner. I think you are all heroes with strong bones. I, Lan Jue, have always respected the warriors who defend their homes and the country, but I do not appreciate blind and ignorant chess pieces. To be at the mercy of such a ruler, is that why you join the army?"

The Vanguard Battalion of Dongtang was silent. They did not dare to act rashly. After all, [-] were against [-], and the opponent was obviously well prepared.

Many soldiers looked at the city wall of the capital hesitantly. The lights on the city wall were dim, but all the machine ballistas were ready to go. Obviously, Lan Jue was right, and Dong Tang was ready to resist.

The commander of the Vanguard Battalion was sweating like rain, but he was a high-ranking general after all, so he had to draw out his weapon and shouted to boost his morale: "Stop talking nonsense, you are already at the end of your battle, my Eastern Tang army will be here soon, Lan Jue , Let's see how long you can go crazy!"

Lan Jue's gaze swept across, and the commander almost fell off his horse, because those eyes were extremely calm, not only did not fluctuate at all because of his words, he even felt that the other party was looking at a dead person.

The killing intent seemed to freeze the space, and Lan Jue slowly raised his hand: "Okay, since that's the case, fight if you want!"
