Chapter 942 Heading to Qing Kingdom
"Hurry up!"
Gao Yan said loudly.
The second change in the Vientiane military formation was that the main force of the Qing Army was trapped in the Echo Valley. I originally thought that I could catch a turtle in the jar, but I didn't expect that the leader of the Qing Kingdom easily cracked the formation and rescued the main force of the Qing Army.
However, how can it be so easy to catch up when the tiger returns to the mountain?
The Imperial Guards were exhausted from all their military formations, and the enemy fled without even the strength to pursue them.
More importantly, Zhou Ran, the organizer of the Vientiane military formation, seemed to have no intention of pursuing them.
"The enemy has no strength! We can definitely counterattack!"
Zhang Dan felt incomprehensible about the retreat, and finally escaped from the Echo Valley. The Jingguo Imperial Guards were also discouraged. If they turned their spearhead at this time, they would definitely win a complete victory.
Unfortunately, the leader of the country, Dongli, had no such intention at all, and ordered the army to continue retreating.
Duan Xuan also led the remaining vanguard army and followed closely behind the king.
This was the first time in so many years that he saw the true appearance of the leader of the Qing Kingdom, and he didn't expect it to look like that.
Not long after, the Qingguo army retreated outside Jianjia Pass and continued to move away, heading towards the Qingguo capital.
The Qing army retreated, and Gao Yan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ordered an inventory of the dead and wounded.
The Imperial Guards lost hundreds of brothers. The victory in this battle was not a great victory, just a tragic victory.
But a victory is a victory. After this battle, Qingguo must think carefully if it wants to invade Jingguo. Jingguo has Zhou Ran, the God of War, and will no longer be afraid of Qingguo's military strength.
Zhou Ran also returned to the army, and the soldiers sang and danced to celebrate the victory.
Gao Yan came to Zhou Ran's side and kept talking.
"Champion Hou, thanks to you, we defeated the Qing army again! I think this time, even the king doesn't know what to reward you!"
Zhou Ran was not interested in what Gao Yan said. His mind was filled with the last words of Immortal Donghua.
Immortal Donghua misses his son deeply and hopes that Zhou Ran can find him, protect him and make him a good person.
However, Dongli became the leader of the Qing Kingdom and gave up the name Dongli.
What exactly is going on?
In my impression, Donghua Immortal and Antarctic Immortal did not have royal blood. How could their sons inherit the Qing Kingdom?
What happened over the years?
Could it be related to the disappearance of the Antarctic Immortal?
Countless doubts lingered in Zhou Ran's heart, and it was probably not that easy to find the answer to the question.
"Champion Hou, what are you thinking about?" Gao Yan saw something was wrong with Zhou Ran's situation and asked curiously.
"nothing."
Zhou Ran took a sip of wine and watched the soldiers dance.
"When the Qingguo army retreated, they could have killed the enemy. Why didn't you command the imperial guards to kill the enemy?"
Gao Yan asked again, but this time, Zhou Ran was too lazy to answer and just drank to himself.
The other party was the God of War of Jingguo. Of course Gao Yan would not get to the bottom of it, so he just said that and continued to toast the victory.
After the military banquet was over, the Imperial Guards returned to the court.
When the mighty Imperial Guard appeared in Yingcheng, the capital of the country, they were greeted by the people of Yingcheng.
All the citizens of the city knew that the Imperial Guards had defeated the powerful Qing Kingdom and were the guardians of the Jing Kingdom, their commander-in-chief, the Champion, and a unique hero among thousands.
The soldiers of the Imperial Guard also felt the enthusiasm.
Years of military service have finally paid off.
The morale of the imperial guards was high and they went straight to the King's Palace of Jing.
The leader of the country, Jing Kang, had already held a banquet to reward the Imperial Guard soldiers and Zhou Ran.
"Champion Hou, thanks to you this time, I was able to defeat the Qingguo army. You are really the patron saint of Jingguo. I don't know how to reward you! Jingguo is grateful for you. Without you, the entire Jingguo would have been a long time ago." Destroyed!"
Jing Kang spoke passionately, his words full of excitement.
Zhou Ran smiled and said: "Master, this battle has damaged Qingguo's vitality. They will not raise troops to invade again in a short period of time. Jingguo has finally ushered in a peaceful day."
"It's so good! It's so good!" Jing Kang said gratefully.
Among the twelve countries in the inner region, Jingguo is weak. It would be best if it could always be peaceful and happy.
The people live and work in peace and contentment, the country develops steadily, and as the leader of the country, I can sit back and relax.
The banquet in the palace lasted for three days before Zhou Ran returned to the Champion House.
The rewards from the king have arrived long ago. Jewels, jade, elixirs, and elixirs can no longer be stored in the mansion's warehouse. Butler Li Hu can only use the Qiankun Ring to store them.
When Zhou Ran returned to the mansion, he found Li Hu and others and said, "Li Hu, I'm going out for a while. You are the steward of the Champion Hou Mansion. Everything in the mansion is entrusted to you. Liansheng's homework cannot be left behind." , if there is any slack, don’t treat him as my apprentice, you must punish him hard! As for other things, you are already familiar with them, so I don’t need to worry anymore.”
When everyone heard this, they were immediately shocked.
Li Hu hurriedly said: "Brother Qingfeng, you just had a battle with the Qingguo army, why did you leave? You should rest for a few days before leaving! In the past few times, you went to dangerous places alone. This time For once, can you take me with you? I am also a powerful person, so I can’t just stay at home if something happens, right?”
Li Hu asked Zhou Ran for a tassel, but was rejected by Zhou Ran.
"Li Hu, you are the strongest among them all. I feel relieved to have you in charge of my family! Don't worry, I'm going to inquire about something. I will come back once I have some clues about the matter I am inquiring about."
Zhou Ran is the master of the Champion Hou Mansion, so naturally no one dares to disobey what he says.
Li Hu nodded heavily and said: "Brother Qingfeng, don't worry! I'll keep an eye on Liansheng, and I'll make sure you reach the master level when you come back! I will also keep an eye on Gongsun Yu's side. If there's Gongsun Mansion, If anything happens, my brothers and I will rush to help as soon as possible.”
"very good."
Zhou Ran felt quite relieved about Li Hu and others. He left the champion's palace to Li Hu, so he had no worries.
Now that the explanation had been made, Zhou Ran left Yingcheng the next day and headed straight for Jianjia Pass.
This is the border between Jingguo and Qingguo. In the past, I came here to fight, but this time, I came out to go to Qingguo.
The mood is different, so the surrounding scenery is also very different.
Zhou Ran crossed the Jianjia Pass and entered the territory of Qing Kingdom. .
Among the twelve kingdoms in the inner domain, Qing Kingdom is closer to the core of the inner domain than Jing Kingdom, so the aura of Qing Kingdom is much denser than that of Jing Kingdom.
This resulted in dense vegetation in Qingguo and the trees were much taller than those in Jingguo.
