Chapter 804 Great Victory and Secret Letter

Mrs. Ying sighed, "What a pity!"

He Lingchuan crossed his arms and shook his head, "Nothing is perfect, this is good enough."

He knew the level of the Yuan Army very well. The main force of He Chunhua's southward march this time, except for the backbone he brought back from Xiazhou, the other levels were mixed. It was the first time to cooperate. It should be good if they did not fall apart. As a result, they were able to march quickly and win the battle...

I don't know how much effort He Chunhua put in to get this winning blow.

If someone else led the team, it would be a miracle for such a team to march quickly from north to south and reach the destination within seven days, not to mention immediately engaging in battle.

His father is still talented.

Adapting to local conditions, adapting to the times, and adapting to people... The difficulty of these three is progressive. And He Chunhua successfully did it.

It is much more difficult to lead that team to win the battle than to lead the Dafeng Army.

It is not easy to blame some remnants of the rebels when the main force won a big victory.

"There is no need to worry about their numbers." He Yue explained to his mother with a smile, "These rebels are a mob. They can unite against the enemy after a few victories, but they will scatter like birds and beasts after a big defeat and it is difficult for them to rise again. There are only 800 people left under Tan Xian. Even if they cannot be wiped out for the time being, as long as my father governs well in Yuzhou, it will be difficult for him to cause chaos again."

Not to mention how good He Chunhua himself is, his ability to govern is still obvious to all.

He asked the messenger again: "Have you reported the good news to the palace?"

"The general has sent someone else to report it."

"Great. So what are father's plans next?"

"The general will divide his troops to go to Longchuan to continue suppressing the rebellion. The main force of the forbidden foreign troops will return north on their own, and the rest will stay in Yezhou to rest temporarily." The messenger replied, "The general plans to govern Yezhou for ten days, then go west and tell the eldest young master that he can leave."

Mrs. Ying and He Yue looked at He Lingchuan together: "West? Where to?"

"To inspect the Hongya Trade Route." He Lingchuan told the truth, "The Hongya Trade Route is also mortgaged. I signed the loan in advance, but I still have to take Rongshan people on a trip."

Of course, he only told part of the truth.

The He family welcomed great news, and Mrs. Ying became generous and rewarded the messenger generously, and then asked Butler Wu to take him down to rest.

The He brothers went for a walk in the garden after dinner, contrary to their usual behavior, and were silent for a long time.

He Lingchuan picked a bunch of osmanthus flowers and put them on He Yue's collar: "Why don't you talk?"

In Yuandu, both men and women have the habit of wearing flowers in their hair.

"Brother, what happened between you and father?"

Seeing that the boy was worried, He Lingchuan asked curiously: "Why do you say that?"

"I'm not a child, how can I not see it?" He Yue said with a straight face, "When you came back this time, there was obviously something strange between father and you."

Among the two sons, only He Yue was loved wholeheartedly by his parents. The original body had always complained about this, but He Lingchuan was calm and patted his shoulder and said: "Family and country affairs are the most important, and other things don't matter. You don't have to think about it, everything is fine."

He Yue was unhappy: "Father also answered me 'everything is fine', don't you think it's strange?"

He Lingchuan smiled and said: "That means everything is fine, why are you still worried?" A few jokes diverted the topic.

At the fork in the road, he waved to He Yue and returned to his yard.

He Yue looked at his back with a worried look on his face.

His father had just won a victory, which was obviously a great event for the country and the family, but why did he feel that things were getting worse for the family?

He couldn't figure out what was going on, so it was useless to worry.

He Lingchuan returned to his residence, said hello to Qiu Hu, and went to the yard to practice his spear skills for a while.

Less than an hour after practicing, there was a sound of flapping wings in the sky.

He looked up and saw a hooded crane perched on a peach tree, tilting its head and asking him, "Is that He Lingchuan?"

This big bird had a black head, red eyes, and long white eyebrows. He looked unfamiliar and should not have recognized it before.

"Who are you?"

"I came from the west, delivering a letter to a man surnamed Liu." The hooded crane didn't waste time talking to him, "Are you He Lingchuan?"

"Yes." He Lingchuan reached out to it, "Where's the letter?"

"How do you prove that you are He Lingchuan?" The hooded crane was very dedicated.

"How do you prove that I am me?" There is also a century-old problem here? "Give me a hint?"

"The man surnamed Liu asks you, what did he put in the exclusive storage compartment of Hongyan Tower?"

"..."As expected, it was a very personal question that only He Lingchuan could answer. Fortunately, he had a good memory and finally remembered it after thinking for a long time, "Two bellybands. He once had a lover who he never forgot..."

"Correct!" The hooded crane was too lazy to listen to boring human stories. The codeword matched, so it gave the thing out, "Your letter, keep it!"

It really handed a letter to He Lingchuan.

Although it was wrinkled and stuck with two fluffs, the seal was intact.

"It's hard to preserve!" said the big crane, "It's been raining all the way."

"Thank you for your hard work. How about you help me deliver the letter on the way back?" He Lingchuan knew that this kind of crane is good at long-distance flying, and thousands of miles is a piece of cake for it.

But it is now exhausted and has been opening its mouth.

"Okay, fifty taels of silver, eighty kilograms of the best small silver fish, alive! But I need to rest now."

Not expensive, the monster is honest: "Okay, how about I give you a frog dinner first?"

"Huh?" There is actually a free meal? The hooded crane nodded, "Okay, okay!"

He Lingchuan called Qiu Hu over: "Help entertain this friend who has come from afar. Let's ask him to go to the pond in our yard first."

The squirrel on Qiu Hu's shoulder saw the hooded crane and jumped into his arms.

He Lingchuan sighed.

It was strange that the squirrel Xiao Qiao liked Qiu Hu more than him.

Next, Qiu Hu took the crane monster to drink water and eat.

The He Mansion now has three beautiful large gardens, with lakes and ponds. In May, you can already hear the sound of frogs.

He Lingchuan suspected that they were actually shouting and cursing at each other because it was too noisy at night. Especially when a group of frogs croaked under the window, it was really no different from thunder, making people unable to sleep at night.

Mrs. Ying complained several times and organized the servants to catch frogs to reduce noise, but unfortunately the effect was not ideal.

The crane monster wandered by the lake, just like standing in a buffet restaurant, eating here and there, whether it was insects, frogs, loaches or snails, he was eating happily.

It is not partial, these are all its favorites.

When the natural enemy came, the noise in the pond suddenly decreased, and the frogs jumped around in fear.

While the hooded crane was feasting, He Lingchuan also opened the envelope.

Liu Baobao of the Liuji Chamber of Commerce in Heishui City said in the letter that the Panlong Desert has frequent abnormalities.

It is impossible for a desert that has been dry for hundreds of years to turn into green fields after a few spring rains, but on the shady sides of giant sand dunes, green grass began to grow or small oases emerged.
