When Cheng Xue heard this, she immediately replied.

Bai Yi nodded, "What's the current situation in Vertical City?"

"Chuibian City has been besieged, and there is no way to send news to us at present. According to the report of the scouts we sent out last time and then came back, there are now [-] troops outside the city. Launch a general attack."

When Cheng Xue heard the words, she immediately replied.

Bai Yi looked at the soldiers who were resting, and ordered, "Let the soldiers rest for a cup of tea, and then go to the army. Be sure to arrive a hundred miles away at midnight, and give the soldiers of the Great Cang Kingdom a surprise tomorrow."

"Yes!"

Cheng Xue agreed, turned around and immediately went down.

At this moment, the army on the side was resting in place, even if they were resting, they all looked around vigilantly, and the team was not chaotic at all.

This kind of discipline makes Bai Yi feel very comfortable every time he controls it. Such commanding skills are really the most proud of being a general.

In Taohuawu, Lu Chensheng was sitting and looking at the waterwheel outside.

The brush in his hand paused slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

"Any news about Bai Yi?"

Lu Chensheng turned his head and asked, Bai Yi had been away for a while, but no news came back, which made Lu Chensheng a little worried.

"There is no news about General Bai Yi yet. General Bai Yi marched all the way in a hurry. It is normal that there is no news."

The attendant at the side heard the words and quickly replied.

Hearing this, Lu Chensheng couldn't help but frowned slightly, the lack of news of Bai Yi still made Lu Chensheng a little worried.

"My lord, please rest assured that General Bai Yi is extremely powerful in leading troops, and all of them are the most elite soldiers in Xinghan City. Nothing will happen."

The attendant thought for a while, and then replied again.

Lu Chensheng thought about it carefully, and he felt right. Logically speaking, with Bai Yi's ability, it is really unlikely that something will happen.

But counting the time, if nothing happened to Bai Yi, he must still be outside the city by now.

Outside the city of Chuibian, there are soldiers from the Great Cang Kingdom, about [-] soldiers and horses.

If these one hundred thousand soldiers and horses can be taken down, it will be much easier to take down the Great Cang Kingdom in the future.

Chapter 581 Retreat

What Lu Chensheng thought was right, the military strength of Da Cang Kingdom is not as good as that of Jiang Country.

Especially before that, there were still most of the troops of Da Cang Kingdom in the vertical side.

After fighting the Tartars, there were countless casualties. Now it is not easy to mobilize [-] soldiers and horses.

At this moment, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the imperial capital, even at the border with Chengzhou Kingdom, there are not many soldiers and horses.

As long as the one hundred thousand soldiers and horses can be taken down, the Great Cang Kingdom is within easy reach.

In particular, the territory of Da Cang Kingdom is full of rivers and rivers. Although it is convenient for Da Cang Kingdom to transport troops and food, foreign enemies can also rely on these rivers to transport troops and food.

It can be said that these [-] soldiers and horses are related to the life and death of Da Cang Kingdom.

"Come back and live here, it's still comfortable to live in Taohuawu."

Lu Chensheng stretched his shoulders, now it's the beginning of autumn, Lu Chensheng can see the people in the fields harvesting crops here.

"My husband can live here longer if he wants."

When Qiong Yue heard the words, she immediately said something.

Lu Chensheng smiled when he heard the words, "Then we have to deal with the matter well, and we have to return to Xing Seoul earlier."

In the past, Lu Chensheng wanted to come back to live in Taohuawu day and night.

But now that I am back, I know that I have to go back earlier. Xing Seoul is the center, so many things can only be arranged by sitting in Xing Seoul.

Hearing this, Qiongyue glanced at the people who were curiously looking at them from a distance, then lowered her head and teased the child in her arms.

"Then wait until the husband's affairs are finished, come back and live more often."

Qiong Yue heard the words and said something softly.

At that time, Bai Yi will follow along to take a look.

Lu Chensheng nodded, and asked, "How is the harvest in Yunmeng City this year? Logically speaking, there is no flood there, so we should be able to harvest a lot of grain this year, right?"

"My lord, there is no news about this for the time being."

The guard heard the words and quickly replied.

There is indeed no news about this. At the moment when various places are in chaos, even if the two places are very close to each other, it is not easy to get news.

No news?

Lu Chensheng frowned, the lack of information was really annoying.

"never mind."

Lu Chensheng thought for a while, then waved his hand and said something.

The news is not well-informed, and Lu Chensheng has no choice but to think that the harvest there should be very good.

Lu Chensheng was worried about Bai Yi, and five days later, a piece of news reached Lu Chensheng.

"My lord, an urgent report from General Bai."

An attendant hurried in from outside, half kneeling and handing over a letter.

Lu Chensheng got up and took it quickly, and after seeing that the letter was indeed written in Bai Yi's handwriting, he quickly opened it to take a closer look.

Well, Bai Yi has successfully wiped out the forward troops of Da Cang Kingdom?

Lu Chensheng hurriedly read along the letter, and after a while, he saw the contents of the letter, and he was relieved.

According to the contents of the letter, this is already a great joy, and it is no wonder that Lu Chensheng is so happy.

"How is it, my husband, is Bai Yi okay?"

Qiong Yue heard the news from Bai Yi, so she hurried over and asked.

"Well, everything is going well with Bai Yi."

Lu Chensheng nodded in response, and continued to read the letter.

What Lu Chensheng didn't expect was that Bai Yi's letter also contained news about Xinghan City.

Originally, the soldiers of Chengzhou Kingdom did not capture Xinghan City, but they were not prepared to give up either.

It's just that the rest of the vassal kings of the Chengzhou Kingdom, seeing a large number of soldiers going to Xinghan City, suddenly started to move, and some troops began to mobilize.

Emperor Yunmo, who had learned of the news in advance, was immediately anxious, and quickly called back all the soldiers on the front line without saying a word, and he didn't care about this city of Seoul.

They thought they could take down Xing Seoul, so that they could get a lot of money and food, and they also copied Lu Chensheng's lair by the way.

But he never expected that someone would actually want to move his lair.

Now they don't have many troops in their hands, if these feudal lords are really in trouble, it's really dangerous.

Therefore, these soldiers who were still attacking Star Seoul retreated directly.

Bai Yixin said that if Lu Chensheng wanted to go back, he could go back now.

Lu Chensheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. In this way, Bai Yi can go to take down the Dacang Kingdom with peace of mind, instead of going back to deal with the soldiers of Chengzhou Kingdom.

"Get ready, we will set off tomorrow to return to Star Seoul."

Lu Chensheng waved his hand and said something.

"Cheng Zhou retreated?"

Qiong Yue couldn't help asking a question when she heard the words.

"Well, the troops have already retreated, and Bai Yi can now settle the Da Cang Kingdom with peace of mind. If the war goes well, these matters can be resolved after winter."

There are various canals in Dacang, and the food can keep up with it.

If everything goes well, the Great Cang Kingdom can indeed be resolved quickly.

The most important thing is that the main force of Da Cang Kingdom has been dealt with, so Bai Yi decided to divide his troops to fight. Go and take over the rest of the cities.

This is no different from the original plan to win Jiang Guo.

At the beginning, Jiang Guo's 20 main force directly surrendered, and Bai Yi divided the fronts to attack Jiang Guo, so these places were quickly taken down.

Doing this now is a repeat of the old trick.

Qiong Yue felt relieved when she heard this.

With Xing Seoul clearing the siege, the pressure they faced would be reduced a lot.

Thinking of this, Qiong Yue waved her hand and asked people to prepare to leave tomorrow.

With the canal in place, they can go to Fufeng City along the canal first, and the ships should come by then.

Bai Yi said in the letter that Xing Seoul City had already sent a ship to pick up Lu Chensheng and others.

They carry a lot of things with them, and it is much more convenient to go back by boat.

The plan to go back was also directly decided at this time.

Before leaving, Lu Chensheng also let Liu Xiangnan know about it, so that if he has time, he can come to Xing Seoul City to have fun.

The next day, Lu Chensheng and the others set off and came to Yunmeng City in a mighty way.

Outside Yunmeng City, although a lot of crops have been harvested, you can still see the bent rice ears at this moment.

The people outside the city are bending over and working hard to harvest the crops in the rice fields.

Seeing such a scene, Lu Chensheng couldn't help but stop and watch. Every time he saw such a scene, Lu Chensheng couldn't help but like to take a few more glances.

In such an era, food is the security.

Lu Chensheng and the others didn't stay in Yunmeng City for a few days. When Bai Yi delivered the letter, the ships from Xinghan City had already left.

The messengers were running fast, so it was a little faster.

When the ship arrived, Lu Chensheng and others also boarded the ship and left immediately.

Chapter 582 Return

Dozens of seemingly huge fleets slowly sailed into Xinghan City.

Some ships still on the river have already stopped along the shore to let the fleet pass.

All the merchants in the city knew that the person here was Lu Chensheng, so they dared not disrespect him.

When the ship docked, a group of soldiers immediately cleared the scene before escorting Lu Chensheng off the ship.

Jiang Guocai had just taken it down, and there were also wars raging in Dacang. I am afraid that many people wanted Lu Chensheng's head.

Under such circumstances, the soldiers naturally couldn't be careless.

First, the soldiers cleared the field, and Jin Yiwei and others accompanied him to ensure Lu Chensheng's safety.

Lu Chensheng and Qiong Yue disembarked together, and walked to the side of the sedan chair, and the sedan chair began to leave smoothly.

After burning a stick of incense, the sedan chair stopped in front of the courtyard. After the sedan chair was stabilized, Lu Chensheng lifted the curtain and looked at the familiar courtyard, heaving a sigh of relief.

Finally came back.

"Let Feng Pingzhou come to see me."

After Lu Chensheng got off the sedan chair and gave some instructions, he got up and went back to the yard, and Qiong Yue followed him in.

Xiaoyu heard the noise inside, and hurried to the door. After seeing Lu Chensheng and the two of them, she was immediately pleasantly surprised.

"Uncle, you are back!"

Lu Chensheng left, along with Qiongyue and others.

This time, the courtyard was immediately empty, which made Xiaoyu extremely uncomfortable.

Seeing Lu Chensheng come back now, he naturally had an irrepressible look of joy on his face.

Seeing Xiaoyu, Lu Chensheng also had a smile on his face, "Is there anything to eat? Ma'am should be hungry."

"Xiaoyu will get it now."
