Several people drank until late.
After finishing talking about everything that needed to be discussed, Lu Xing declined Yun Zheng and the others’ attempts to keep him and insisted on returning to Beidaying.
Seeing that he insisted, Yun Zheng did not try to persuade him to stay, "Okay, then the king and the princess will see you off!"
"I dare not trouble the prince and princess."
Lu Xing shook his head repeatedly and said with great fear and trepidation.
"What kind of trouble is that!"
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "At this time, the city gates have long been closed! If you don't follow us through the city and go around the wild to Beidaying, how long will it take you to get there?"
"this……"
Lu Xing reacted and smiled embarrassedly, "Then I'll have to trouble the prince and princess!"
Lu Xing knew in his heart that if he went to knock on the door, the soldiers guarding the city would probably not even pay any attention to him.
...
...
If he didn't follow Yun Zheng and the others, he would have no choice but to take a long detour through the wild to return to Beidaying.
It’s pitch dark now. By the time we get back to Beidaying, it will probably be dawn.
Soon, the group set out for Shuofang City.
As expected, the city gates were already closed.
"Open the door!"
Gao He went forward with a lantern and knocked on the door.
"The city gates are closed. You can only enter the city tomorrow!"
The soldiers on the city wall answered without thinking.
"presumptuous!"
Gao He shouted in a low voice: "The prince wants to enter the city, dare you not open the city gate?"
"Your Majesty?"
Hearing Gao He's words, the soldiers on the city wall hurriedly looked behind Gao He.
"It's really the prince and princess!"
The soldier on the top of the city wall exclaimed, and hurriedly said, "Please wait for a moment, Your Majesty and Princess. I will go and inform our leader right away!"
As he spoke, the soldier hurried to find the military officer in charge of the night duty.
After confirming that it was Yun Zheng and Shen Luoyan and their group, the military officer immediately ordered someone to open the door and ran out to greet them personally.
"Greetings, Your Majesty and Princess!"
The military officer hurriedly led the others to salute, "I didn't know it was the prince and princess who wanted to enter the city. I'm sorry for the offense. Please forgive me, prince and princess."
"Okay, this is your duty, what's the crime?"
Yun Zheng waved his hand, and took out a gold ingot from his sleeve pocket and threw it to the military officer, "The weather is cold, use it to buy some charcoal for the brothers on duty to keep warm! However, I have to make it clear in advance that you are not allowed to use it to buy alcohol, otherwise, even if General Huo spares you, I will not spare you!"
“Yes, yes!”
The military officer nodded repeatedly and kept thanking Yun Zheng.
Yun Zheng waved his hand, "Okay, then you guys get busy! By the way, General Lu will have to rush back to Beidaying later, send two brothers to escort him out of the city through the north gate."
"yes!"
The military officer quickly agreed.
Soon, Yun Zheng and his team entered the city smoothly.
The military officer also sent two soldiers to escort Lu Xing to the north gate as Yun Zheng requested.
Lu Xing looked back at the south gate that had closed again and couldn't help but smile helplessly.
This is the prince!
If it were someone else, it would be strange that these people would open the city gate.
Not to mention his people from Beidaying!
All the people under Huo Gu are almost obedient to Yun Zheng's orders!
Now, I don’t have to worry about it anymore!
It’s time for Huo Gu to have a headache!
Thinking of this, Lu Xing felt a sense of schadenfreude.
At the same time, Shen Luoyan and Yun Zheng also rushed to the mansion.
"These soldiers guarding the city have become a little lax."
Shen Luoyan frowned and said, "They let you in so easily. If you surrender to the enemy, they will lose this city!"
“Not bad!”
Yun Zheng looked at Shen Luoyan in surprise and jokingly said, "You figured this out?"
He actually saw this problem.
However, his purpose was to let Lu Xing see his control over the defenders of Shuofang City.
This can be regarded as a reassurance to Lu Xing.
Therefore, he would definitely not say anything bad about the soldiers guarding the city.
"I'm talking to you seriously!"
Shen Luoyan glared at him in dissatisfaction, "I wanted to say it a long time ago, but it was difficult to say it in front of Lu Xing just now."
"These soldiers are indeed too lax. It's easy for someone to trick them into opening the city gate!"
"If I take over the defense of Shuofang City, I will set a strict rule that after dark, the city gate cannot be opened no matter who knocks!"
The defense of the city gate is of top priority!
If the city gate is tricked open by the enemy, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Good, I know to consider these things."
Yun Zheng teased her again, and then continued: "Although what you said makes some sense, you can't set the rules in stone! Think about it, if our people are chased by the enemy and urgently need to enter the city, if you don't open the city gate, are you going to watch our people being slaughtered?"
"this……"
Shen Luoyan was slightly choked and suddenly didn't know how to answer.
What Yun Zheng described is very likely to happen.
If you are being chased by the enemy and finally escape to the gate of your own city, but the defenders refuse to open the gate due to orders, how desperate will the soldiers outside the city who are being chased by the enemy be?
“So, we can’t set the rules for this matter.”
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "It's just that the inspection should be stricter! And then, you can enter the city, but you are not allowed to bring weapons into the city! Anyway, the soldiers guarding the city should be more careful and test it more..."
Rules are dead, but people are alive.
We can't follow rigid rules for everything, we have to be flexible.
Shen Luoyan thought about it and nodded as if he understood something.
"By the way, how many people have you selected who can survive five moves under your hands?"
At this time, Yun Zheng suddenly asked again.
"Just over thirty!"
Speaking of this, Shen Luoyan's face was full of bitterness. "Moreover, most of them are people we brought from the Imperial City, and two are bandits we recruited on the way to Shuobei..."
The remaining three were originally young generals in this camp, but they were dismissed by Yun Zheng and demoted to ordinary soldiers.
In other words, apart from those who were dismissed, in the huge South Camp, among tens of thousands of people, there were only two people with slightly stronger strength!
"so much?"
Yun Zheng's face was full of surprise.
"ah?"
Shen Luoyan was stunned, "Do you think this is too much?"
She still felt it was too little!
Yun Zheng actually thinks it’s too much?
What on earth is going on in his mind?
“Too many!”
Yun Zheng said with a smile on his face: "You can test them again tomorrow and pick out the ten strongest ones!"
"Ah? Only ten?"
Shen Luoyan looked at Yun Zheng in astonishment, "I say, what on earth are you going to do?"
Yun Zheng's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, "I want to train them myself!"
“Ahem…”
As soon as Yun Zheng finished speaking, a burst of coughing sounded around him.
They were all sent by Gao He and his gang.
Several people tried hard to hold back their laughter and used coughing to cover up their embarrassment.
Shen Luoyan's face was also very interesting. After being stunned for a long time, she finally burst into laughter.
Yun Zheng personally trained those people?
He was a guy who had only recently learned how to ride a horse, and yet he was training those people himself?
"I……"
Yun Zheng looked at everyone speechlessly, curled his lips and said: "Just wait and see! I will make these ten people become the enemy's nightmare!"
Damn it!
Do you still dare to look down on yourself?
I must show you what special operations are!
Since I am not good at martial arts, can't I teach them special operations?
He had already thought of the names of these people.
The Eighteen Ghost Riders!
Benchmarked against the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun.
Although there are only ten people now, we can slowly add more people later.
Put up the shelf first!
It’s just right to leave some vacancies, so that we can definitely choose stronger people in the future!
