Demon King and Concubine

Chapter 287 Escorted back to Beijing (2)
"I think so!" said a general, "but I'm afraid this matter will not be over. Before they return to the capital, the crown prince must have learned about the situation here, and he will not want to let the third highness and the county The Lord returns to the capital safely, and I don’t want to see Lu Chengshou and the fake thieves enter the capital alive. The way back is also difficult and steep.”

"Yes, we must send some people to escort His Highness and the princess back to Beijing!" Another general said the same.

The matter was settled like this, Jun Xiuran and Duanmu Tian escorted Lu Chengshou and the "thieves" in Beifu City back to Beijing, while Duanmu Jing stayed in the barracks to accept what Duanmu Tian had done before.

She explained everything to her brother in detail, and then suddenly asked: "Brother, how is the situation between you and Miss Rong?"

Hearing this, he smiled lightly, stretched out his hand to rub her head, and couldn't help but sighed softly, and said, "She's always been reluctant to talk to me, probably because she's still angry."

"You came to Beijiang, does she know?"

"Yes, I asked her if she wanted to come with me."

"She didn't agree?"

"Yeah." He couldn't help feeling sad as he spoke, "The day I left Yicheng, she didn't even go out to see her off."

This is lost?
Duanmu Tian squinted sideways, if the person in front of her was not her own brother, she really wanted to say that he deserved it!
What were you doing when the eldest lady came to confess to you?What are you doing when people are leaving the capital?Fortunately, the princess has mentioned you many times, but it doesn't make sense.

Now people are angry, sad, and don't like to talk to you anymore, are you lost and sad again?

Duanmujing glanced at her sister, laughed again, and said, "Yes, I deserve it. But you don't have to worry too much about it, since I have figured it out, I will never do anything stupid again."

Duanmutian laughed lightly when he heard the words, and didn't say anything more.

There is really no need to worry too much. Miss Rong still hopes for her brother, but now she is so angry that she will make things difficult and refuse to talk to him. When her brother calms down the anger in her heart, it should be almost It's time for Duanmu Palace to marry the Crown Princess.

Jun Xiuran walked in from outside Shi Shiran, glanced lightly at Duanmu Jing, and said with a smile: "This time I saw Mr. Jing, I found that you seem to be more and more proud of yourself."

Are you sarcasm or sarcasm or sarcasm?

The corner of Duanmujing's mouth twitched, she suddenly took her sister's hand, hugged her lightly, and said softly: "The departure should be almost ready, I'll take you out."

This is Hong Guoguo's provocation!
His Highness the Third Highness stared at Duanmujing's paws on his Tiantian's body, a purple light flashed in his eyes, and then moved away as if nothing had happened.

It's nothing, it's just that the elder brother cares about the younger sister, the person closest to Tian Tian will always be his Jun Xiuran!
Duanmu Tian wouldn't get involved in the fight between these two, and he didn't know what was going on, it seemed that the two had disliked each other since childhood, they were simply the legendary natural enemies.

And when everything was ready, it was time for them to leave the barracks and return to the capital.

Going back this time might be difficult and dangerous, so Duan Muzheng specially dispatched a team of 3000 people to wait for His Highness' dispatch and escort them all the way back to Beijing.

The team left the barracks in a mighty way. Duan Muzheng and the generals stood at the door and watched them leave, each with solemn expressions.

More than [-] people left the barracks, left the northern border, and ran towards the capital of Dayan Capital. They were heavily guarded all the way, and they dared not slack off in the slightest. Towns pass by.

Even so, when they traveled a thousand miles from northern Xinjiang, they were attacked for the first time.

There were not many people who attacked, as if they just wanted to test it out, but the result of the test was that none of them were able to go back and pass any news about this side back.

From this time on, Jun Xiuran and the others immediately became alert, and the speed of their advance was also slowed down so that they could better deal with all emergencies.

Continuing on, there was no surprise attack for three consecutive days, but Duanmutian always felt that there was someone lingering around their team, not sure if they were watching or waiting for an opportunity.

And no matter what the idea is, she just needs to stay the same and respond to all changes.

It's best, those people just follow them all the way, let's forget about following them to the capital.

Today is another night in the mountains. In the camp, as usual, those who were to be escorted to the capital for trial were pulled to the middle, and they were not allowed to get out of the carriage. Instead, the carriage was pulled to the middle, and the huge tent Covered and went up, and then heard the sound of iron chains clanging inside.

Duanmu Tian and Jun Xiuran were sitting in their camp, studying a map in front of Tan Zai together, and three commanders of the Conglong Army stood beside them.

"Tomorrow we will pass Chitupo. If we want to ambush, this is a good place." Duanmutian pointed to one of the points on the map, and said.

Jun Xiuran frowned and said, "If I were the prince and brother, the target should be directed at Lu Chengshou and those criminals, so tomorrow we..."

Chitupo, as the name suggests, should be a hillside piled up with terracotta.

But this explanation is only half right.

It is true that there is nothing wrong with the terracotta hills, but there are not one, but two, and they are not just as high as ordinary hills.

They stood side by side on the only way from Northern Xinjiang to Dayan Emperor's Capital, and they had to pass through the depression between the two mountains.

From this, there is a natural canyon.If you set up an ambush here with heavy troops, it would be a hit.

But one thing can be clearly understood, that is, it is impossible for Jun Xiushan to send heavy troops.

Dayan's army was divided into four, one was the Conglong Army guarding the northern border, the second was the Huyue Army guarding the west, the third was the Imperial Guard Army and the Royal Forest Army guarding the important areas of the capital, and the fourth was the southeast coastal army. A navy that fights against sea pirates and deters small islands on the sea.

For hundreds of years, the Conglong army was commanded by the Duanmu family, the commander of the Huyue army was the prince of the Feng family, and the other imperial guards, imperial forest army, and navy on the southeast coast all obeyed the emperor's orders. Compared with the absolutely elite four armies in front, the officers and soldiers of the government soldiers can only be regarded as miscellaneous soldiers, and naturally they are also under the command of the emperor.

Therefore, unless the emperor allows it, His Royal Highness Jun Xiushan cannot send heavy troops. Maybe he can mobilize officers and soldiers from the state capital, but there is a strict limit on the number of officers and soldiers that can be recruited by each state capital, so he cannot mobilize many. And compared with the three thousand Conglong army, it is not enough.
