Li Ling glanced at Chen Daoshou and could understand his worries in his heart.

Since Cui Shuangcheng dared to use all forces to attack grain transport teams so unscrupulously, it is very likely that Li Ling and his friends would use more rude means to achieve their goals before and after Li Ling arrived at the army. As a general of the border army, Chen Daoshou obviously knew the power and skills of General Cui better than him, so it was reasonable to retreat.

Seeing that Li Ling was silent and said, Chen Daoshou thought the other party could not understand what he meant, so he said anxiously: "Mr. Li, I know that this matter is very contrary to the law. You still want to confront him in person after arriving in Bazhou. I also understand that if the incident happened to the court, the evidence we have now is enough to convict Cui Shuangcheng. However... After all, this is the northern border, and he has heavy troops in his hand. Once he is determined to harm you, let alone we have suffered heavy losses and have delayed the time limit, even if the military rations are delivered on time and in quantity, he will still kill us with false excuses.

"So, it's really unwise to go to Bazhou to send sheep into the tiger's mouth. In my opinion, I'd better return to Fengzhou to protect myself. At least in that way, we can still have room for competition..."

After he said this, even Yang Chen was a little moved and nodded, "Yes, the front-line army is different from other places. Cui Shuangcheng holds military power. If he really wants to attack, he will be unreasonable. We will be too risky when we send it to the door."

"I understand that your thoughts are nothing more than turning around immediately and reporting the matter to the court. The court will send people to find out everything and give us justice. And you think that Fengzhou City is the support and Di Jingfei is there, so we can be safe." Li Ling said, sweeping over the two of them, and seeing them nodding at the same time. That's what they thought.

But Li Ling shook his head: "But have you ever thought that in this way, we handed over a huge handle to him Cui Shuangcheng? We were ordered to escort food and supplies north, but we returned halfway. What's the point? If he had lost the battle on the front line, there would be enough reason to shift the blame to us, and if he successfully took Fengzhou, he would be even more invincible!

"As for the clues we have now, he can completely ignore them. You have also said that there are no seals on those secret letters, Cui Shuangcheng's seal on them. Even if he reported them to His Majesty, he would have ruthlessly shouted for justice. However, when we retreated at this time, the charge was real.

"There is another point, and the most important thing. Do you really think it's safe for us to go back at this time? He is a border general who understands soldiers, so wouldn't beware of us being able to do this? Until now, the Green Forest thieves who were defeated by us in the Tiger Leap Gorge have never shown up again. I don't think they will give up. Maybe they used their old skills again and ambushed in the Tiger Leap Gorge, waiting for us to fall into the trap. If other Green Forest thieves who came from elsewhere were suffering from soldiers and generals, and their morale was greatly declining, this time, their danger was still going straight to Bazhou!"

Li Ling's analysis made the two of them look shocked and suspicious again, especially Chen Daoshou, who, after pondering, agreed with his concern. Yes, is it really safe to turn back? Maybe someone would have set up a new net to wait for him to crash into it.

Li Ling had already looked somber at this time: "So in my opinion, returning to Fengzhou is the most unwise choice. Going to Bazhou is dangerous, but at least there is still a few plans, but he will definitely die when he turns back. At that time, maybe we will face not only one Cui Shuangcheng, but the entire Jinzhou military general system and the prince's party behind them."

When it comes to military combat or something, Li Ling is naturally far from comparing with the two of them. But when it comes to thinking about people's hearts, Chen Daoshou and the other two are not his opponents. After a while, they gradually dispelled the idea of ​​returning to Fengzhou while their backs were cold.

But Yang Chen was still worried: "But sir, it's a big danger for us to go straight to Bazhou. We can't even send it to us even if we know it's dead, right?"

"Well... let me think about it, there will always be a solution. After all, there is no way out!" Li Ling frowned and pondered, but obviously, he could not come up with a proper way for a while, so he could only let them go out to drink with the soldiers and encourage the morale of the army first, while he continued to ponder the countermeasures.

Anyway, it was already a little late, so I just waited here for a few more days to see if I could find a way to break the situation elsewhere. And this time, it was another three days.

After three days, the military generals completely recovered their physical strength, and the already scattered food and supplies were also re-arranged. It can be said that as long as he said Li Ling, the team could set off at any time. However, this key problem that troubled them was never solved.

But soon after, an amazing news came back - on the last day of April, Cui Shuangcheng finally captured the city more than a month after being blocked from Bazhou City, killing and capturing more than ten thousand Guirong people who were guarding the city, which was the biggest victory this year.

This good news was spread by the meteor fast horse. After passing through Desheng Town and shouting out the news, the man galloped away again, obviously he wanted to spread the good news all the way until he was sent to Luoyang, the capital, and was willing to give up.

When this good news spread in the town, the people and military generals who were not aware of the inside were celebrating happily. Some even offered to go north and send food, wine and other things to the front line to reward the army. It can be said that they were full of energy.

Chen Daoshou and others were also excited on the surface, but when they turned their faces, their expressions were full of sorrow. Now things became more and more complicated and difficult. They had no chance of winning against Cui Shuangcheng, but now they have made great achievements and their reputation is at its peak. Even if someone doubts and wants to help, they can only retreat at this time.

So, in Chen Daoshou's opinion, his family had completely entered the Jedi this time. When he saw Li Ling, he did not hide it and said in panic: "Mr. Li, we will really lose now..."

Li Ling was closing his eyes and thinking about something before, and when he heard him, he slowly opened his eyes: "You said that Cui Shuangcheng won Bazhou in this battle and it was a chance for us to win over Bazhou, but in my opinion, it was exactly the opposite."

"Ah? What do you say about this sir?" Chen Daoshou was a little confused. He made great contributions and had a great reputation. How could it be beneficial to his own family?

But this time, Li Ling kept it a secret: "General Chen, I decided to set out north early tomorrow morning and deliver the supplies to the front army as soon as possible, so that I could reward the soldiers on the front line."

"No, you..." Chen Daoshou was really confused and anxious, but before he could say it, Li Ling had already stepped forward solemnly and patted his shoulder: "So, let me leave the safety of the next road. Don't worry, after arriving in Bazhou, you can take people away. I, Li Ling, will never implicate my friends."

"Mr. Li, what are you selling in this gourd..." Chen Daoshou was full of doubts, but seeing that Li Ling really didn't want to say it, he stopped asking questions. He could only go to make arrangements with full doubts.

Everything was as Li Ling said, the team was quickly rectified, and then set off again early the next morning and headed north.

Although they were full of doubts, Chen Daoshou still did his defensive work. With the previous experiences and lessons learned, they walked more carefully on the road ahead. Not only did they go out of their swords and guns, they dared not relax, but they even scattered their scouts to prevent sneak attacks.

But under such a defense, he was so mediocre along the way that he never encountered any attacks from Green Forest Bidders or Gui Rong. It was as if with the conquering of Bazhou City, these enemies were already invincible and dared not appear in the Great Vietnamese territory again.

After walking for several days in such a worry, they finally arrived outside Bazhou City on the eighth day of the fifth month. They could see the ancient and towering walls of the city from afar. On the top, a banner with the word "yue" was erected, and the city was urging around that the city had returned to the hands of the Great Yue.

It was not until this time that many soldiers were put back in their stomachs. After all, they were afraid of being attacked before, and now they were safe. However, Chen Daoshou looked back at Li Ling not far away and found that the other party was also carefully looking at the city ahead, but there were only Yang Zhen and Li Moyun, who were gradually recovering from the injury.

This made him a little confused. He remembered that since they set out from Desheng Town, Yang Chen disappeared. Obviously, this was the arrangement made by Li Ling. Thinking of this, Chen Daoshou looked at Li Ling several times, guessing what tricks he had.

At this time, Li Ling also looked at him and rode his horse forward, laughing and said, "General, since we have arrived in Bazhou, we should relax. Let's set up camp here, rest for a night, and enter the city again tomorrow."

"Okay... it's good." Chen Daoshou felt uneasy and responded casually.

At this moment, the entire team stopped more than ten miles away from Bazhou. After settling down the camp, only one person was sent to the city to report the news, and the others rested on the spot.

There was no reaction on the other side of the city for a while. Soon it got dark and he even closed the city gate directly, without any intention of contacting Li Ling and the others.
