Chapter 189 Our border troops are safe
On that day, Jiang Lin stayed at the Nanling camp.
Liao Mingxu's meaning was very clear. Since the Qingzhou Li family had given three days, Jiang Lin could only stay in the Nanling camp before the other party gave up completely.
Otherwise, once you leave, you may be forcibly taken away by someone sent by the other party.
This kind of thing is not unusual.
Jiang Lin had no objection, knowing that to deal with the powerful, he had to rely on border troops.
……
Kyoto City, Dongping Alley.
It is said to be an alley, but in fact the road is very spacious, more than ten or twenty meters wide.
There is also another name here, called Gumin Lane.
This name comes from the ancient saying: "When a gentleman listens to the sound of drums and whistles, he thinks of the generals and their ministers."
A total of forty-two people live here.
Thirty-five general soldiers.
Seven commanders.
Even if anyone else wants to get close to within ten meters, they will be driven away directly, even if they are a red-robed official of your third rank or above.
Moreover, these people who are responsible for guarding Guji Lane are all high-ranking, with the lowest being eighth-grade, and their number appears to be only two or three hundred.
In fact, the secret whistle is hidden, and with a shout, at least 1,500 people can be gathered immediately.
At the entrance of the alley, the elderly Wei came here.
Although he could tell from the armor's style that he was from the frontier army, they still didn't let him pass.
Old Man Wei didn't say much, knelt down on his knees and knocked his head heavily on the ground.
"Wei Xiangzhong, a former 100-year-old householder in Nanling Daying, asked to see Yu Shuai!"
More than 20 years ago, Old Man Wei was a member of the 100th household of Nanling Camp. Now this Yushuai was the second-grade commander-in-chief.
If not for the defeat in that battle, Old Man Wei would have been promoted to Qianhu, and now he would have no problem becoming a general.
Unfortunately, there are not so many ifs in the world.
The former commander-in-chief became one of the seven commanders, while Old Man Wei became a cook in the blacksmith camp.
The difference in status is so different that it is embarrassing.
The few people guarding Gujin Alley stood in front of him, neither chasing him away nor giving in, with cold expressions.
After a while, a person walked out of the alley.
He is wearing civilian clothes, tall and has piercing eyes.
Although half of his hair is gray, he looks younger than Old Man Wei.
When he came closer and stood still, several people next to him immediately raised their hands and saluted: "I have met Lord General Qi."
General Qi bent down and stretched out his hand to help old Wei up, and said in a gentle tone: "What are you doing here?"
When Old Man Wei was a member of the Hundred Households, General Qi was the general of the Nanling Camp, and they were very familiar with each other.
Old Man Wei took a step back, bowed his hands and saluted: "I have a nephew who forges iron in the blacksmith camp of Sinan Foundry. Now he is favored by the Qingzhou Li family. He is willing to join the frontier army and ask for the kindness of Commander Yu."
General Qi laughed and said, "The person you are talking about is called Jiang Lin?"
"Yes." Old Man Wei was not surprised.
Jiang Lin has close contacts with Nanling Camp, and Nanling Camp belongs to General Qi, so it is not surprising to know this.
"I know, let's go back." Qi Zongbing said.
After that, he turned around and left.
But he heard a thud from behind him and turned around to see Old Man Wei kneeling down again.
"What, you don't believe me?" General Qi asked.
"Letter!" Old Man Wei took off the severed knife from his waist, held it in both hands and crawled on the ground: "I just ask the Commander-in-Chief to be kind and allow me to wait here."
General Qi raised his eyebrows and vaguely recalled the hundred households who were once the bravest in the Nanling camp.
It seems that he no longer corresponds to the decrepit old man in front of him.
As time goes by, many people and things have changed.
He glanced at the broken knife and said, "You weren't such a bitch back then."
"Please have mercy on me, Commander-in-Chief." Old Wei still said. Mr. Qi took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and said, "Then just wait."
Then he turned around and left, sighing softly.
"What a pity."
In the Nanling camp back then, Wei Xiangzhong's name was like thunder.
Among the hundreds of households, he is enough to rank among the top three.
The commander-in-chief at that time once said that if this kid can live longer, he will become a great weapon and may reach the position of commander-in-chief.
Such words show how much you value him.
You know, the commander-in-chief is one of the seven current commanders.
What a pity, what a pity.
Old Man Wei was kneeling like this, prostrate, holding the knife in both hands, his posture unchanged.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
When General Qi returned to Guji Lane, he went directly to another mansion, cupped his hands and said, "Qi Hongwu wants to see Yu Shuai."
The gate of the house was not closed, but always open. A taller old man could be seen standing in the yard, looking up at the branches above his head.
There are no leaves on the tree, it is bare and looks very inconspicuous.
"What's the matter?" The old man's voice came out before he even moved.
"Wei Xiangzhong, one of the 100 households in the Nanling camp just now, asked for an audience. A nephew named Jiang Lin was attracted by the Qingzhou Li family and wanted to be a private craftsman. Jiang Lin was unwilling and entered the Nanling camp."
"So that's what happened. I was wondering why that boy Wei Xiangzhong suddenly came here."
The old man stretched out his hand, broke off a branch, put it in his hand to look at it, and said, "Just go in."
"Do you need to go to the Li family in Qingzhou?"
The old man twisted his fingers lightly, and the branches suddenly shattered into ashes and flew away in the wind.
His tone was calm, but he had an arrogant and domineering tone.
"Since you have joined the frontier army, you are a member of our frontier army."
Qi Hongwu nodded and said nothing else.
The frontier army has always been like this, the best protector in the world.
Neither Yu Shuai nor Commander-in-Chief Qi Hongwu knew much about Jiang Lin's skills, let alone cared about them.
But Old Man Wei was one they knew, and since he came to kowtow and beg, he had to get the matter done no matter what.
As for who is happy and who is unhappy, is it necessary to care?
If the Qingzhou Li family is unhappy, they can just come to Gujinxiang. Do they dare to come?
After Qi Hongwu left, Yu Shuai looked up again at the broken branch, which was filled with golden color.
"This is the ancient purple gold wood that Xuanhua Tao claims to be indestructible? It's not very hard, it's just broken into pieces when touched."
If someone who is familiar with these things sees it, their jaws will drop.
The ancient purple gold wood is one of the top rare trees controlled by Xuanhua Dao. It is said to be a legacy of immortals and gods and is indestructible.
Someone once held a mysterious weapon, but it only left an almost imperceptible mark on the tree trunk, which was enough to show its hardness.
But in the hands of this old man, it could be easily broken or even crushed into dust.
To achieve this, one must at least be at the peak of the Divine Martial Realm.
However, in the external announcement, only two of the seven generals of Da Gan have entered the Shenwu Realm for the first time, and the other five are still at the peak of the Yuanwu Realm.
Obviously, everything known outside is false news.
Just like during the Battle of Kyoto, the people of Xuanhua Dao once exclaimed to His Majesty the Emperor: "You have surpassed Yuanwu and reached the realm of Shenwu!"
Even the emperor has concealed his cultivation level from the outside world, so it is normal for the commander-in-chief to be unreal about his strength.
This is the saying goes that soldiers never tire of deceit.
After a while, Qi Hongwu came to the entrance of the alley and looked at Old Wei who was still prostrate on the ground.
"Go back."
"Jiang Lin, our border troops have secured it."
Looking for more orders, I will write in the future
