I am the Empress Dowager!

Chapter 201 The Emperor Guards the Country ([-])
"Hehe, little brother deserves to be a member of the royal family. He really has good eyesight!"

Sure enough, after hearing Liu Long's words, the young man smiled directly, and then smiled shyly at Liu Long in front of him.

Then he raised his hand slightly and said softly.

"I'm not afraid of little brother's jokes. I wonder if little brother has ever heard of Duan Huizong, the Protector of the Western Regions?"

"Duan Huizong, who has been on four missions to the Western Regions?" When Liu Long heard the name, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, "Are you actually a descendant of the Duan family?"

Liu Long was quite surprised when he looked at the young man in front of him. He didn't expect that this boy was actually a descendant of Duan Huizong, the deputy governor of the Western Regions who was quite famous in the Western Regions when he was sent to the Western Regions many times.

Of course, Liu Long didn't actually know this name, he just knew that this person existed.

But what surprised him was.
"Your Duan family has disappeared from the court in recent years, and now you have actually stood up?

It's really not easy. "

As soon as Liu Long finished saying this, the boy from the Duan family on the other side started laughing awkwardly.

He also knew that his family had disappeared over the years.
"Brother is worthy of being a son of the royal family. Hey, I didn't expect that little brother actually knows my Duan family.

To be honest with you little brother, Brother Wei's family is indeed lonely. The then Deputy Protector of the Western Regions, Duan Guizong, was Brother Wei's grandfather!

After my grandfather passed away, my Duan family actually wanted to rise again, but for the time being, they couldn't find anyone who could compare with my grandfather.

In addition, Wang Mang's chaos in the country happened again. Although my ancestors of the Duan family were not capable, they did not want to abandon the Han Dynasty, so they chose to flee to the Western Regions.

When I came back again, I had already reached this age.

Fortunately, my grandfather still has some connections in the Western Regions, and our relationship with the Han Dynasty has not been severed over the years.

This gave the boy an opportunity to join the army and continue to fight for my big man! "

When the boy from the Duan family said this, his whole person revealed a strong sense of excitement, as if he could return to the Han Dynasty, and playing for the Han Dynasty was something that made him extremely excited.

Liu Long on the other side nodded repeatedly and continued to cater to the other party.

Of course, he was somewhat dismissive in his heart.

Because he is no longer the ignorant boy he once was.

What this kid just said can be interpreted in another way.

"Back then, the world was in chaos, and my old Duan family was not a wealthy family. Fortunately, we had some connections in the Western Regions, so if we didn't run away, why would we wait to be stringed together?
Run, that's a must! "

Yes, that's probably what it means, but now Liu Long is also a civilized person, so naturally he won't expose the other party's words in this kind of thing.

They will even take the initiative to cater to the other party about this matter.
Maybe this is growth!

While talking to each other, Liu Long also learned that this little guy who came back from the Western Regions and could even ride and shoot was called Duan Ji, and he was the only heir to the Duan family in this generation.

It is also the hope of the Duan family.

The reason why he was able to join the army this time was because he had just left a descendant in his family some time ago, named Duan Jiong.

Liu Long always felt that this name was familiar, but he just couldn't remember who it was. However, when he finally looked at the Duan family boy in front of him, he naturally ignored it.

Anyway, no matter who they are, they will be his subjects in the future.If it can be used, reuse it; if it cannot be used, discard it. If it is of bad character, kill it!

Doesn't he need to say more about this matter?

Now Liu Long finally understood it and had completely thought about this kind of thing.

In the process of moving forward, Liu Long also met many children from poor families like Duan Ji. They all came from the frontier.

Knowing that there is no chance for them in the court now, I want to use this opportunity to find a way for myself.

When facing them, Liu Long was also very kind and got along with them as a royal disciple. However, the boy who has the best relationship with Liu Long now is still the boy named Duan Ji.

Liu Long was shocked that the literary style of the Han Dynasty was now at its peak, but these descendants from the "frontier" were still brave enough.

And they lamented that although Liu Long was a member of the royal family, he was not pretentious at all, and even endured hardships and stood hard work, which surprised them all.

And during this stop-and-go, their speed did not slow down at all, and they quickly rushed to the boundary of Bingzhou.

At the same time, I also learned about the dangers on the battlefield!

Before they arrived, the Nan Xiongnu Wan clan's Xizhu Ting Chanyu had been attacking Wuyuan for a long time. The governor of Wuyuan County led his troops to resist desperately, but was defeated by the Southern Xiongnu army.

The county guard was also killed on the spot.

Geng Zhong, another general stationed in the northern border of the Han Dynasty, also immediately sent troops from the flanks to contain the opponent.

But he never expected that the allied forces of Wuhuan and Xianbei would appear behind him. The two sides directly joined forces with the Southern Xiongnu to besiege Geng Zhong and his army in Meiji.

Geng Zhong, the queen of the famous sect, was left unable to move, and even in such a critical condition that he had to ask for help from everywhere.

Fortunately, the Liaodong governor on the other side noticed something was wrong. While the court's decree was still on the way, Liang Dong, the general from Liao Dynasty, and Geng Kui, the Liaodong governor, had already rushed over.

This was considered as pushing the opponent back, allowing Geng Zhong to survive.

Now that the imperial army arrived, among the four generals, General He Xi and General Pang Xiong also made a move that shocked Liu Long.

"The army will immediately attack Meiji City to rescue General Geng Zhong!"

When He Xi and Pang Xiong made such a decision after a short discussion, Liu Long's eyes almost stopped waiting.

He originally thought that this time He Xi and Pang Xiong were just in name, responsible for bringing the army to the more experienced frontier generals, namely Liang Dong, the general of Liao Dynasty, and Geng Kui, the prefect of Liaodong.

Who knew that these two were so careful that they could complement each other?
And they still want to be the main force?
Liu Long was really stunned at this moment. He was worried that these two guys would repeat what happened in the northwest again and die directly on the battlefield in northern Xinjiang.

But now he doesn't dare to reveal his identity directly. Even though he has countless thoughts and worries in his heart, he can only watch all this happen.

finally.
"All officers and men listen to the order and defeat the thief today!"

At the foot of Meiji City, when He Xi's voice raised the ears of all the soldiers, Liu Long felt that this time the army was different.

At the same time, the deputy general Pang Xiong also launched a direct charge.

"kill!"
