Chapter twenty-five, extreme joy begets sadness

The entire city of Morlington was immersed in joy. After a long period of fear and fear, the residents of Morlington City had become frightened birds. Since the Kaman army marched south to the west, Morlington City was shrouded in the haze of the destruction of the country. The Kamans solved the vast western region with lightning speed. The soldiers of the western region were approaching Morlington City, and the Tyrocks living in the capital felt the arrival of the end of the world.

Every time the sound of the horns of the Kamans sounded, the residents of the city of Morlington were trembling with fear, fearing that the Kamans would come in after a little neglect. The terrified people had no choice but to be surrounded by the Kamans on all sides, so they had to pray every day that the Kamans could mercifully retreat automatically. However, accompanied by the sound of siege of the city, the Derroks, who lived in the capital and lived a relaxed and leisurely life, finally truly realized the cruelty and truth of the war.

Now all these worries and fears have disappeared with the arrival of the Northwest Army, and the clouds shrouded over the city of Morlington have finally dissipated. How can the people not sing and dance to celebrate?

Looking at the northwest army gradually approaching the city gate with a complicated expression, Balins always felt indescribable in his heart. He led his army to fight hard to resist the invasion of the Kamans, fighting bloody battles, and how much blood and life they had been given. All this seemed to have been completely ignored by the people in the city. All the halos were hidden in front of him, who regarded himself as a savior. How could these two comparisons not make him feel extremely bitter?

Qin Feng, who was standing next to him, looked at the northwest army that walked into the city gate in an envious and jealous manner with an empire reinforcement, but this was different. Who told me that I was not lucky enough to meet the Kamans first? At this moment, Li Wufeng came to pick up a peach on the ground. Isn’t the Kamans very majestic? How could he go back in shame without even giving up any farts? It’s really unbelievable.

Grand Duke Alan and Duke Lanmeng stood happily at the city gate to welcome him personally, especially Duke Lanmeng looked at the neatly-designed Northwest Army with some envy. In contrast, the people of their own country have lived a long-standing life and have lost all the spirit of military martial arts without a trace with the loss of time. This spirit of martial arts cannot be established in one or two days.

Drive forward, Wufeng saw a slightly fat man standing there with a smile on his face under the Qingluogu at the city gate. The luxurious golden Luoyu embroidered shirt wrapped around him looked a little tacky, while the tall and thin man next to him looked graceful, and the fitted Duke's court uniform showed his extraordinaryness.

"Li Wufeng, the military and political governor of the northwest of the Tanghe Empire, met the Grand Duke!" He pulled his saddle and dismounted his horse early, Wufeng stepped forward a few steps and bowed deeply.

"Haha, human heroes are young. When I see you today, my nephew is indeed a dragon and phoenix among people!" Grand Duke Allen's fat face was so shaking that his fat flesh shook. He quickly held Wufeng with his hands, grabbed Wufeng's hand and laughed, "The Duchy of Dilock is all due to the rescue of his nephew, so that he can escape this disaster."

"The great man is so serious! The Australians have their own celestial phenomena. The Duke of Delok has been established for hundreds of years. The people in the territory have returned to their hearts. The Duke is deeply respected by the people. How could the invaders have been foolish? " Wufeng also smiled and said compliments, making the other party feel excited, but he was secretly pounding. Seeing that Princess Anne's beauty seemed to be like the fat man in front of him, how could it be a father-daughter relationship? Could it be that there was something else in between? Thinking of this, Wufeng couldn't help laughing. When was this time, how could he still have the boring things like this?

"This is--" Wu Feng turned his gaze to the tall and thin man next to him, and his gaze also stayed tightly on the other person's face.

"Haha, this is my military minister Lan Meng. I believe my nephew has heard of it, right?" The fat man smiled and held Wufeng's hand intimately and introduced Wufeng, and the tall and thin man also saluted politely."

"Oh? I have long admired Duke Lan Meng's name for a long time. I have heard of it for a long time in the empire. It is a blessing to meet him today." I also thought about the other party's identity in my heart. After hearing Grand Duke Alan's introduction, Wufeng still felt his heart moved and quickly shook hands with him to show his closeness.

"Lan Meng is well-known for Lord Li's reputation. Back then, Lord Li defeated Luobei's cavalry with his own strength, and later repeatedly defeated Luobei's army, shaking the northwest, suppressing the bandits, and advancing westward, all of which shocked the great achievements of the past and the present. It was a great blessing for the empire to be able to defend the northwest." A series of praise and praise came out of his mouth. Although the middle-aged tall and thin man was flattering, he pointed to Wufeng's most proud point. Even Wufeng was alert and felt a little fluttering in his heart, and he invisibly had a little more favor for this person.

"Haha, Lord Lan Meng is over-reputable. Li just came across an opportunity by chance. It would be better if he didn't mention it. However, Lord Lan Meng is working hard to travel for the Principality of Gerok. Grand Duke Allen has such a confidant and help, and Lord Lan Meng has such a wise ruler. It is really a blessing for Gerok." The sophisticated Wufeng has experienced countless trials in the officialdom of the imperial capital, and his face has long been as thick as cowhide. Flattery words rolled out, but he didn't look embarrassed at all.

After a bit of humility, the three of them put their arms together into the joyful city of Morlington. Ballins and Qin Feng and Wufeng also followed the group of generals into the city, and the grand welcome ceremony to enter the city officially began.

Lying in the wide jade bathtub, Wufeng quietly enjoyed this rare moment of peace. The luxury of the Derrok surprised him. Needless to say, the luxury of the palace of the princes and nobles in the city of Molington also shocked Wufeng. The glorious palace with golden walls, the courtyard with thousands of songs and hundreds of times, the perfect combination of ingenious craftsmanship and harmony and nature made Wufeng, who was used to seeing the world, even the enjoyment of the Derrok was no less than that of the great nobles in the imperial capital.

The scenes at the dinner slowly came to my mind again. Lan Meng is really a cunning guy. Before he could take a breath, he actually offered to help him break the siege of Fanlin City. Humph, Miley is now returning to the army of more than 100,000 and joining Nick's tens of thousands of troops. The fall of Fanlin City should be just around the corner. No matter how hard he tries, he cannot save this fact. Moreover, he cannot spend so much effort to do such thankless things. Morlington is safe and his promise has been achieved. As for the others, he can only take one step at a time.

Let the comfortable waves wash away his strong body, Wufeng slowly closed his eyes and immersed his whole body in the spring water. The quiet and cool feeling made Wufeng extremely comfortable, especially after countless days of fatigue and busyness, he could get this kind of enjoyment, allowing his whole body to be exhausted.

Since I came in, I would definitely not withdraw easily. I just stayed with me with some excuse and could not give anyone a handle. Especially for the empire, I still need to discuss it carefully. Diloke seems to be still hesitating. Thinking of this, Wufeng couldn't help but smile. Humph, if I don't let me garrison, then face the Kamans' swords and guns. If I want me to garrison, then I have to talk about the price. There is no other third way to go.

Just when Wufeng was complacent about putting his clutch into Jeroke, no one expected that a sudden conspiracy swept towards him, so fierce that he did not react until the situation could no longer be curbed.

"What? What did you say?" Mi Feng's rosy face suddenly turned pale and he slapped the desk with a hard clench. A deep handprint suddenly appeared on the desk.

"Sir, it's too late. If we don't take measures, we may have to surrender." Gu Liangchen said anxiously.

Sitting back into the chair dejectedly, Mi Feng stroked his forehead with his hand, "I'm afraid it's too late now, right? The abominable Taiping Sect dares to use such despicable means!"

On the night of June 16, 696, the 110,000 Taiping Army stationed in the eastern part of Lulong to recuperate suddenly advanced westward and swept across Lulong with the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves. After tenacious resistance, Mi Feng, the defender of Lulong, was outnumbered after tenacious resistance and was forced to withdraw from Lulong's mansion city and flee westward. On June 17, the Taiping Army General Cheng Dayou conquered Lulong's mansion city. On June 19, the Taiping Army completely controlled Lulong. At this point, the entire Beiyuan County fell into the hands of the Taiping Cult.

However, it seemed that God in June did not take care of Wufeng at all, and one bad news after another attacked Wufeng. On June 17, the Taiping Army, which quietly sneaked from Xikang Prefecture, and the Taiping Army from Longdong, launched a crazy attack on the unprepared Queqiao Pass. Fortunately, the intelligence system played its full role at this time and quickly issued early warning messages. After paying a considerable price, the Independent Second Division, which obtained the intelligence, barely withstood the first wave of the Taiping Army's offensive with its strong fortifications.

"Grandma, the damn Taiping Sect, these bastards are really good at picking things. Let's see how I deal with you guys who have raised them!" While cursing, the house slapped the stones on the pass angrily.

"The situation is a bit bad. The enemy is coming in a fierce manner, as if there are 70,000 or 80,000 people. Their purpose must be to seize the Queqiao Pass. We are afraid--" Yue Shan did not say anything further, but the worry on his face had clearly revealed his inner concerns.
