My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 3701 Return of the Army

"Old Wei."

Upon hearing the voice, Han Peng's deputy general Wei Ziping immediately put down the telescope in front of him and turned to look at Han Peng who was standing beside him.

"I will serve you, General?"

"Old Wei, I see the flags they are carrying behind them. They seem to be the flags used by the brothers of the Second Western Expedition Army!"

"General, I see the flags behind them, and they look like the flags of the second army heading west.

However, because they were still too far away, and the flags behind them were waving in the wind, I couldn't see them clearly at first glance.

Therefore, I am not sure whether they are the brothers of the Second Western Expedition Army. "

After listening to the deputy general's answer, Han Peng immediately raised the telescope in his hand in front of his eyes again and looked at the ten cavalrymen in the distance again.

Upon seeing this, his deputy general Wei Ziping immediately raised his telescope and looked outside the field again.

After a while, Han Peng gently put down the telescope in front of him, chuckled and nodded.

"This general has seen it clearly, it is indeed the banner of the brothers of the Second Western Expedition.

Ten cavalrymen were dispatched to rush back to the royal city. It might be Duan Dingbang who has returned from Persia."

Wei Ziping moved the telescope in front of him and turned to look at Han Peng who was smiling.

"General, you are right.

Judging from the situation, it is very likely that Marshal Duan and his men have returned from the expedition to Persia.

Should we send someone to inform His Majesty and the two old marshals about this matter right away?"

After Han Peng hesitated for a moment, he waved gently at Wei Ziping.

"Don't be anxious for now. Let's wait until we get accurate information from the brothers and confirm that Duan Dingbang has really returned.

Then, we will send someone to inform His Majesty as soon as possible, and it won't be too late for the two old marshals.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if there was a misunderstanding.”

Hearing Han Peng say this, Wei Ziping immediately nodded happily.

"Alright, alright, this is safer. General, you are more thoughtful."

Han Peng chuckled and let out a sigh. After casually adjusting his armor, he lowered his head and nodded at the city wall below.

"Old Wei, in a few moments they will be rushing outside the city gate.

Come on, let's go down from the tower first."

Wei Ziping smiled calmly and nodded, then turned sideways and waved to Han Peng.

"Yes, General, please."

"Hey, what's there to be polite about? Let's go together, together."

"Okay, okay."

Soon, Han Peng and his group of people walked down from the city wall.

Han Peng took the lead and walked to the edge of the city wall. He looked at the ten horses riding fast on the official road that were getting closer and closer to the city. He smiled faintly, raised his right foot and stepped on the battlement.

It took about half a cup of tea.

The ten cavalrymen were followed by clouds of dust. They galloped on their horses, whipping their horses, all the way to a position about fifty or sixty steps away from the city gate. Then they gently pulled the reins to slow down their charge.

Immediately afterwards, the leading cavalryman quickly pulled out a command flag from behind and waved it vigorously.

"Report! We are the vanguard scouts under Marshal Duan. Please don't be nervous, seniors on the tower."

"Report! We are the vanguard scouts under Marshal Duan. Please don't be nervous, seniors on the tower."

The leading scout shouted out the identities of his group loudly while riding his horse towards the city gate.

Han Peng listened to the loud shouts of the leading scout and leaned forward to look down at the city.

"Brothers, do you have any military information?"

The leading scout heard Han Peng's question on the city wall, and hurriedly pulled the reins in his hand gently, then looked straight up at the city wall.

"Shut up!"

Seeing this, the other nine scouts also hurriedly tightened the reins in their hands.

"Xu~"

After the leading scout saw clearly the armor on Han Peng, he quickly raised his hands and clenched his fists.

"General, Marshal Duan has returned from Persia with his troops and is now less than thirty miles away from the capital of the Arab Kingdom."

After hearing the answer from the leading scout, Han Peng raised his eyebrows slightly and immediately waved to the ten scouts under the city wall.

"Brothers, hurry into the city and onto the city wall."

"Yes, we obey."

The ten scouts immediately dismounted from their horses and led their mounts straight to the city gate.

Han Peng retracted his body that was leaning out of the city wall and turned to look at the personal soldiers standing behind him.

"Old Yin, Old Jin, the two of you should go to the palace immediately and inform General Zhang and General Nangong that the two armies have returned."

"Yes, I humbly accept my order."

Han Peng raised his foot and walked forward quickly for a dozen steps, then looked up in the direction of the east city wall.

"Old Wu."

"The humble position is here."

"Your Majesty, the ladies, and His Royal Highness Prince Wuyi, are they still drinking on the east city wall?"

"General, about half an hour ago, the brothers who were patrolling on the city wall reported that they saw His Majesty and his men still on the city wall from afar at the corner of the south wall.

As to where it is now, I have no idea.

General, would you like me to go to the corner of the city wall and check it out right away?"

Han Peng withdrew his gaze from the direction of the east city wall and nodded slightly.

"Go back quickly."

"Yes, I'll be back soon."

"Wait a moment."

"General, do you have any other instructions?"

"Forget it, let's wait until those little brothers come to the top of the city wall, and then we can go over together."

"Okay, I understand."

While Han Peng and his companions were talking, ten scouts, led by a soldier, walked up to the city wall in an orderly manner.

"General, the brothers from the second western expedition army are coming up."

Hearing the voice, Han Peng subconsciously turned his head and looked towards the stairs in front of him on the left.

When he saw the ten handsome young men standing behind the soldiers, he immediately smiled and chuckled a few times.

"Haha, hahaha, let the brothers come over quickly."

"Yes."

"My little brothers, please."

"I dare not, I dare not, thank you for leading the way, senior."

The leading scout gave a fist to the soldiers around him, then quickly rushed towards Han Peng and the others.

"I am Yu Shuo, your humble servant, here to see you, General."

"I am waiting to see the general."

"No need to be polite, all of it is excused."

"Thank you, General."

After Yu Shuo stood up, he quickly took off the bag on his back.

Then, he untied the bag, took out a document, and handed it to Han Peng respectfully.

"General, this is the notice that Marshal Duan asked me and my brothers to deliver first. Please have a look at it."

Han Peng smiled faintly and nodded, then took the document directly into his hands.

"Old Wei."

"I'm here." Han Peng turned sideways and handed the telescope in his hand to the soldier beside him, then raised his head and nodded in the direction of the east city wall.

"You continue to be on duty here. I will take the brothers to the east city wall first."

"Okay, I understand."

"Yu Shuo, you brothers, please follow me, General."

Upon hearing this, Yu Shuo brothers and others immediately raised their hands and clasped their fists.

"We will obey."

Han Peng nodded slightly and walked directly towards the corner of the south and east city walls in front.

Old Wu and his personal soldiers, as well as the ten Yu Shuo brothers, quickly followed.

Han Peng took the lead, walking quickly while quickly flipping through the contents of the document in his hand.

After about two cups of tea, the group hurriedly reached the end of the south city wall.

Just as Han Peng, Yu Shuo and a group of people were about to walk towards the east city wall without stopping, two palace guards immediately came up and raised their hands to signal.

"General Han, the young master has issued a strict order that no one is allowed to approach the tower on the east wall unless there is something important this morning."

Looking at the two imperial guards who stood in front of him, Han Peng clasped his fists with a smile on his face, and then raised the document in his hand.

"Two brothers, urgent military information."

After hearing what Han Peng said, the two palace guards took a quick look at the document in his hand and hurriedly took two steps back.

"General Han, please come in."

"Thank you very much."

Han Peng thanked the two of them cheerfully and immediately hurried towards the city wall ahead.

Seeing this, the people behind him quickly followed again.

After getting away from the two palace guards, Yu Shuo turned around with a puzzled look at Han Peng in front of him.

  "General Han, I'm sorry to ask, shouldn't we go to the palace to meet the two old generals now?

Now, who are we going to meet at the East City Wall?"

“Hahaha, you’ll know when you get there.”

Seeing Han Peng pretending to be profound, Yu Shuo nodded with a slightly helpless look on his face.

"This, okay."

About another cup of tea later, Han Peng and his group finally arrived at the tower of the east city wall.

When Han Peng heard the shouting coming from the front, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Then, he adjusted his armor and quickened his pace.

In just a few breaths, Han Peng saw Young Master Liu, Song Qing, Du Yu and others toasting each other.

"It's great, it's great! Pour the wine, pour the wine quickly."

Just as Young Master Liu was shouting excitedly, Han Peng's loud voice suddenly rang out from the city wall.

"Your subject, Han Peng, wishes to see the Marshal."

When Yu Shuo and others heard Han Peng's self-introduction and his address to Young Master Liu, they were all suddenly shocked.

Immediately, the ten brothers looked at Han Peng with an expression of disbelief, and then they quickly turned their heads to look at Young Master Liu in front of them.

Liu Mingzhi, who was already drunk at the moment, heard Han Peng's voice suddenly coming from the side. He stretched out his hand to pick up the wine bowl, but suddenly paused.

Then he shook his head vigorously, and turned with drunken eyes to look at Han Peng who was standing more than ten steps away.

"belch!"

"Han Peng?"

"Replying to the commander, I am here."

Liu Mingzhi looked at Han Peng's staggering figure and exhaled heavily.

"call."

"Han Peng, can't you just stand there? Why are you rocking back and forth?"

"Ah? Marshal, I didn't shake it back and forth!"

"No, didn't move?"

Seeing Young Master Liu's reaction, Han Peng knew very well that Young Master Liu had obviously had enough to drink.

So he hurriedly trotted forward seven or eight steps and stopped again.

"Replying to the commander, I have not moved."

Liu Mingzhi took a deep breath, raised his hands, placed them on his red cheeks and rubbed them vigorously for a few times, then looked at Han Peng again.

This time, Han Peng no longer swayed back and forth in his eyes.

"Han Peng, why are you here? What's the matter?"

"Reporting to the commander, Duan Dingbang has returned from Persia."

As soon as Han Peng said this, the expression on Young Master Liu's face changed slightly, and his drunken eyes suddenly regained some clarity.

"What? Who's back?"

At the same time, Song Qing, Liu Song, Du Yu and others who were already about 60% to 70% drunk also changed their expressions and looked straight at Han Peng.

Even Qi Yun, the Third Princess, the Queen, Gumo Rongrong, and the little cutie all showed a hint of surprise on their pretty faces.

"Breathe! Breathe! Breathe! Breathe!"

Young Master Liu opened his mouth and took a deep breath, then raised his hand and pressed it gently on his forehead.

"Han Peng, tell me again, who is back?"

"Reporting to the commander, Duan Dingbang has returned from Persia."

When Young Master Liu heard Han Peng repeat his previous words, he raised his hand and pressed it on the armrest of the chair, then stood up from the chair somewhat unsteadily.

"You mean, Dingbang has returned from the expedition?"

Seeing that Young Master Liu was somewhat unsteady on his feet, Han Peng hurriedly took a few steps forward and reached out to support his arm.

"Come back to Commander, that's right."

"No need to help, I can still stand."

"Commander."

Liu Mingzhi took two small steps and struggled slightly with his arm that was being supported by Han Peng.

"Hey, hi, I told you not to help me, so you don't have to help me. I'm fine."

"Ok."

Han Peng felt Young Master Liu's struggle and loosened his arms slightly.

However, he kept his hands half-supported so that he could strike in time.

Liu Mingzhi casually adjusted the collar of his shirt and walked towards the city wall with slightly floating steps.

Seeing this, Han Peng's expression changed instantly, and he quickly chased after Young Master Liu.

Qi Yun, the Third Princess, Qing Lian and the other sisters all had changed expressions. They all stood up from their chairs and ran towards their husbands.

Song Qing, Liu Song and others reacted belatedly and hurriedly followed, staggeringly.

"Marshal, that's enough, that's enough, we can't go any further!"

Qi Yun stretched out her slender hands and grasped Young Master Liu's arm, and nodded her head a few times nervously.

"Yes, yes, husband, we can just walk here. Standing here, we can still have a panoramic view of the scenery outside the city."

“Haha, hahahaha.

Yun'er, I'm not drunk yet, you don't have to be nervous."

"You can't go any further if you're not drunk. Standing here, you can see everything that's happening outside the city."

"I second the motion, sister."

"Okay, okay, I will listen to you and will not go any further."
