Chapter 147 Meeting with the Wolf King
Hongdou met Ling Rui at the gate of Beijing City.
He was also surprised when he saw Hongdou. He stopped her, asked about the situation, and took her to the imperial city.
If Hongdou entered the imperial city by herself, she would have to report to various levels, but Ling Rui took her in directly, saving a lot of time.
At that time, it was just after the court session.
When the officials heard the good news from the border, they all returned to the hall to share the good news together.
In front of all the officials, Xiao Heng asked Fu Lu beside him to read out the victory news.
The situation at the beginning was fine. Liu Hong was just reporting the situation on the border, and the emperor and all the officials were very happy to hear it.
But later... Liu Hong began to praise Ling Chan and the martial artists at great length... This caused dissatisfaction among many officials.
"General Liu hasn't been on the battlefield for a long time. He actually thinks that our 100,000 Daqi soldiers are no match for a few Jianghu people."
"Yes, although the Marquis of Zhenbei has made great contributions in defending the border, he is still far inferior to the former Marquis of Zhenbei."
"These people in the underworld will definitely become arrogant and proud of their achievements in the future..."
"In the future, he will definitely repay the court for his kindness."
"yes..."
They seemed to have forgotten why they had asked Ling Chan and the martial artists to go to the border in the first place.
Isn’t it because of Dahe’s frequent attacks that Daqi suffered heavy casualties?
Hongdou thought of the Qingyi Tower sisters at the border and the martial arts masters...
Even when his own sect was invaded by the Dahe people, he still held his ground at the border to fight against the Dahe.
Yet he was so despised and slandered by all the officials...
Hongdou couldn't help but argue with them.
These officials couldn't argue with Hongdou, so they made a fuss about her being just a maid of the Marquis of Zhenbei.
"Fortunately, the emperor stopped everyone in time and affirmed the contributions of the young lady and the seniors." Hongdou smiled foolishly. Now she has completely lost the dead look she had just now.
Ling Chan listened to Hongdou's description while keeping her eyes on him.
She suddenly felt that if she wanted to be invincible in this world, she still had to learn some kung fu.
Take Hongdou for example. If she had strong internal strength, she would never have been hurt so badly this time.
"The Emperor said that I was exhausted from rushing all the way back to the capital, so he asked someone to take me downstairs to bathe, change clothes, and have something to eat."
Hongdou narrowed her eyes in a smile, "Your Majesty is so kind."
Ling Chan rolled her eyes at her and said, "Go on."
Anko scratched her head, "Hmm."
"I was taken down by the palace maid to bathe..."
"After she came out, she lost my clothes. I wanted to get them back, but the emperor sent people to look for them..."
"Miss, that dress is lost..."
Ling Chan's eyes moved slightly, and she comforted her, "It's okay, it's lost."
She would go back to the space and cancel the damage-resistant function of the clothes.
But...she is very cautious now, always feeling that this part is a bit strange.
But she couldn't remember what was strange about it.
"When I returned to the palace, the emperor had already drafted the imperial edict."
"I left the palace as soon as I received the imperial edict, and it was General Ling who escorted me out."
Up to this point, everything is pretty normal.
"But as soon as I left the city, I was ambushed after only a cup of tea."
Hongdou slammed her hand on the table angrily, "These guys are very skilled in martial arts, and... strange and hard to defend against."
"Miss, I have to practice martial arts with the seniors in the future. There are too many masters in this world."
She also expressed her feelings...
But Ling Chan grasped the key point, "Hongdou, you said their kung fu is strange and difficult to defend against?"
"Could they be the Dahit people?"
Hongdou was startled when she heard this, "Miss, this... I'm not sure."
"Because, because I only fought with them a few times, then..."
Ling Chan suddenly thought of something, stretched out her hand and placed it on the table, and used her mind to take out the arrow left in the space.
She wiped the blood off the arrow and began to examine it.
Each country has different methods of forging arrowheads, so the appearance of the arrowheads is different.
Seeing her looking at the arrowhead, Hongdou stood up and ran out of the tent, asking Gong Lan and Gong Yu to go find Daqi's arrow feathers and Dahe's arrow feathers.
Ling Chan had previously looted a lot of Da He's arrowheads from him...
Gong Lan and Gong Yu soon arrived with arrow feathers from both countries.
Lingchan and Hongdou compared...
"It's Da He's arrow...is he really a Da He person?!" Hongdou was shocked.
"How could it be a Dahit?"
Ling Chan put down the arrow, "Hongdou, it will take you at most half a day from entering the city to leaving..."
"If you hadn't met Ling Rui at the city gate, no one would have known you. How could the Dahe people have targeted you in such a short time?"
Hongdou tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Miss, you are doubting..."
"General Ling?!"
Ling Chan waved her hands, "It can't be him."
Ling Rui is not a good husband or a good father, but... as Liu Hong said, he is at least a qualified general.
Anko nodded in agreement, "I don't think so either, General."
"It's more likely those talkative old men."
These words flashed through Ling Chan's mind, and she didn't care.
"Gong Lan, Gong Yu." Ling Chan called them in. "Send a letter to the sisters near the capital and ask them to inquire about Hongdou's attack."
"Also, have them keep an eye out for any traces of the Daikatsuki in the capital."
After explaining all this, Ling Chan took Hongdou to find Luo Nanfeng and the others.
"Have you received any news from the martial arts world recently?"
"What's the latest news about the Dahi people?"
People in the martial arts world have their own way of communicating, and Luo Nanfeng and the others know the situation in the martial arts world very well.
"What Cheng Feiyu and the others said was true. After we sent a message to all the sects to be on alert, they stopped showing up."
Because Ling Chan had brought Hongdou with her, Luo Nanfeng made a bold guess, "Could it be that the one who ambushed Hongdou was also a Da He person?"
Ling Chan nodded, "I have this guess."
Luo Nanfeng immediately retorted, "The capital is heavily guarded, how could there be so many Da He people?"
Ling Chan also thought so, but Hongdou was really ambushed outside the city. How to explain this?
Luo Nanfeng sighed, "It's useless to think about this now. Let's wait until you return to Beijing and investigate this matter thoroughly."
"What I'm worried about now is, if we defend He Yun Mansion, will Da He negotiate peace with Da Qi?"
"What if Da He simply doesn't want the He Yun Mansion anymore?"
"How long do we have to keep guarding like this?"
"We can't stay here either."
They have their own sects and trades to do...
"Don't worry, Senior Luo." Xiao Jin suddenly appeared. He was very familiar with the situation on the border.
"He Yunfu has a lot of arable land and is an important grain producing area for Da He. They can't abandon He Yunfu."
"If they still can't capture He Yun Mansion after autumn, they will definitely negotiate peace with Da Qi."
Luo Nanfeng nodded, "Okay, then we'll wait until autumn."
When Da He attacked again, Ling Chan thought she would see Wu Shao again, but she did not see Wu Shao in the opponent's camp.
Last time, even with Wu Shao's help, Da He was unable to capture He Yun Mansion, let alone this time without Wu Shao's help.
Under the attack of Ling Chan and others, the war lasted only half an hour.
When the Great Wolf King found out, he was so angry that his beard stood on end.
"Where's Wu Shao? Send someone to bring him back to me immediately!!!"
But Wu Shao had already escaped to somewhere unknown. He only left a dozen guns without bullets for the Wolf King, and the other guns were confiscated by Ling Chan and the others.
Ling Chan didn't know this news. She confiscated Wu Shao's pistols, equipped them with bullets and gave them to the sisters in Qingyi Tower.
In this way, they can not only defend but also attack, and their combat effectiveness will be stronger.
In the subsequent wars, the sisters of Qingyi Tower played a very important role.
On this day, the Wolf King actually went outside the city in person to take charge and attack the city once again.
The city wall of Heyunfu City that was destroyed in the first bombing has been repaired...
Ling Chan and others stood on the city wall and fired downwards, while the sisters from Qingyi Tower protected behind the city gate.
The people from the martial arts world were divided into two groups. One group was on the city wall to deal with those who attacked the wall, and the other group followed the sisters from Qingyi Tower. As long as the city gate was broken, they would go out to fight the enemy immediately.
This is the first time the Wolf King has seen so many hidden weapons launched at the same time...
At this time, he hated Wu Shao even more, as he actually fled the border at such a critical moment.
But more of it is greed...
He stared at Ling Chan, Liu Huaiyu and the others, thinking that if all these hidden weapons were in her hands, he would be even more invincible.
Thinking of this, he waved behind him.
A few people came from the team behind.
"You go up and take the things in their hands..." he instructed them.
These people flew up and came in the air...
Ling Chan was the first to notice that these people were walking on the air, which showed that they had strong internal strength.
"Senior Luo, Senior Jiang." Ling Chan called Luo Nanfeng and Jiang Chenyang. This kind of master...still has to be dealt with by Luo Nanfeng and Jiang Chenyang.
When Da He's men approached the city wall, they raised their palms and attacked it.
The city walls were soon destroyed beyond recognition...
Ling Chan took Liu Huaiyu, Hongdou and others and retreated to make room for Luo Nanfeng and Jiang Chenyang who were coming to meet them.
After Luo Nanfeng, Jiang Chenyang, Gong Taining and others stood still, they also gathered their internal strength and attacked them.
The internal forces of the two sides collided in mid-air, and the wind they stirred up overturned the Da He soldiers attacking the city below. At the same time, the Da Qi soldiers defending the city were also affected and stepped back, and the city gate actually opened a gap.
The soldiers behind Dahe immediately boosted their morale and rushed forward, blocking the gap in the city gate.
The sisters of Qingyi Tower put away their shields and showed off various pistols.
Their pistol magazines were full and they had a lot of bullets on them.
For a moment, dust was flying on and under the city walls...
Those masters were very cunning. They specifically sent a few people to harass Luo Nanfeng and the others, leaving two or three others to deal with Ling Chan and the others.
The powerful internal force lifted Ling Chan's hair, but had little effect on her body.
Ling Chan put her feet on the ground to steady herself, put the rifle in her hand into the space, and replaced it with a black umbrella.
All this happened in a second.
In the eyes of the attacker, the thing in Ling Chan's hand instantly turned into a black umbrella, like a magic trick.
The person looked up in surprise, and Ling Chan had already opened the black umbrella to block her.
And the tip of her umbrella was facing him...
With a bang, a bullet shot out from the tip of the umbrella. The man in front of him had no time to dodge and was shot in the head.
Everyone else was stunned. This man was one of the strongest among them in terms of internal strength, and he was killed just like that?
Luo Nanfeng, Jiang Chenyang and others took advantage of the moment when the men were stunned and attacked again, knocking them off the city wall in one fell swoop.
Before they could even stand up from the ground, Ling Chan opened fire again...
These people had no choice but to hide and retreat.
Daqi wins again...
At this time, there are still two months left before autumn is over.
In other words, if they hold out for another two months, Da He will definitely negotiate for peace, otherwise the grain of He Yun Mansion this year will go to Da Qi, which will allow Da Qi to continue attacking Da He.
The Great Wolf King came to the border to fight, originally full of confidence, but now...
"Wolf King, the hidden weapon of Daqi, the Zhenbei Marquis, is very strange and can transform."
"The first glance was a black hidden weapon, the next glance it became a black bone umbrella."
"Besides, our internal energy is useless to her."
The Wolf King was at the foot of the city and had a general idea of Ling Chan's situation. He was already shocked, and now after hearing their description, he found it even more horrifying.
The powerful internal strength that the martial artists had cultivated for decades was actually useless to her...
Wouldn't that make her invincible?
With such a person in Daqi, how could Dahe conquer cities and march south?
"Wolf King, you might as well consider what that man means." The person next to the Wolf King whispered.
The Wolf King frowned. What that man meant... He was originally disdainful and unwilling to do such a thing.
But now... he really needs to think about it carefully.
He thought of Ling Chan's heroic figure on the city wall and sneered, "What a pity."
Unfortunately, this person is a great praying person...
If she could be used by Da He, he would definitely give her the highest honor.
"You, go for this king."
Late at night, Ling Chan was about to go to bed when something suddenly shot in from outside the room.
Ling Chan went down to pick up the things on the ground and opened it to take a look.
Then he suddenly put on his clothes and put on a thin shirt. It was autumn and it had rained, so the nights were cool.
When I walked out of the yard, I saw Xiao Jin outside.
"Someone just now..." Xiao Jin said.
Ling Chan agreed, "Yeah, he's gone."
Xiao Jin retracted his alert expression and asked, "Well, what are you doing?"
Ling Chan was fully dressed and looked like she was going out.
"I can't sleep, so I'm going out for a walk." Ling Chan made up an excuse.
The thing just now was an arrow feather carrying a letter.
The letter asked her to meet him outside the northern city...
The outskirts of the north city, that's the direction of the battle with Da He, so the person who asked her to meet...
"Wolf King, come out."
Several figures fell from the sky, and then a figure slowly walked over from not far away.
"Marquis Zhenbei actually guessed my identity? Then why did you come to the appointment alone? Aren't you afraid that I will ambush you?" The person who came was the Great Wolf King.
Only when he came within five steps of Ling Chan did Ling Chan see his appearance clearly.
With a full beard and fierce eyes, he has the demeanor of a superior.
"The Wolf King has seen my skills before the battle. What are the chances of success if we ambush me? The Wolf King should know."
"Hahaha." The Wolf King laughed loudly, looking up at Ling Chan with admiration. "The Marquis of Zhenbei is so calm at such a young age. I really admire him."
Ling Chan looked at him and said, "Wolf King, just speak your mind."
"Okay, that's straightforward." The Wolf King nodded approvingly. "I've made an appointment with the Marquis of Zhenbei today to discuss a deal with him."
