Nie Zheng sat cross-legged, and explained in a loud voice: "I chased Yang Ziqiong for two days, and I was about to strike when they were exhausted, but after I chased them, I found Yang Ziqiong's body. Very ugly."

"I guess I was murdered by my subordinates, so I continued to chase, but I chased all the way to Yongcheng, and I still didn't see the bandit army."

"Didn't go back to Yongcheng? Then where did they go? Where can a group of defeated soldiers go?"

"Then I don't know, but I can be sure that they did not return to Yongcheng, and the number of troops carried by Yang Ziqiong is not large, only about five to six thousand."

Li Si tilted his neck and frowned tightly: "The troops are divided, and Yang Ziqiong is used as a bait. Where did the rest go? Even if they want to make a comeback, they should go back to Yongcheng!"

Lu Zhongyi spread his hands and interjected: "My nephew told me about this when he wrote to me for the last time, and now I can't get in touch with my nephew. In my opinion, it should be the mysterious person who appeared before."

"Except for Lai Ai, who else has the ability to swallow these tens of thousands of horses? Could it be some martial arts in Xianyang City?" Ma Xiaozhi also analyzed it.

"No, absolutely not." Li Si replied affirmatively.

There is a reason for Li Si to be so sure. The top martial arts officers in Xianyang City have a lot of military power. It is meaningless to go to Nanyang County to perform such a scene for the sake of these tens of thousands of horses.

And if Wu Xun wanted these tens of thousands of horses, he could have surrendered before the battle started, so why bother to wait until they were disabled by the dragon guards before doing it.

"According to this way of acting, it seems that Jia Pingzhuan did it, but his prestige in the army is not as good as Yang Ziqiong!"

"What puzzles me the most is how these tens of thousands of horses disappeared out of thin air. They have no money, no food, and no return to Yongcheng. Where did they go?"

Everyone was completely puzzled, Yang Ziqiong's death was strange, and the bandit army's disappearance was even more strange.

"Why don't you let the scouts out, maybe you can get some information!"

"It's useless, it's been a few days, and I've already gone away." Li Si scratched his head irritably, and said with some frustration: "I think someone wanted to go with me, and borrowed my hand to take a big place." Cheap, damn it, I've been tricked by someone."

"Old Lu, try everything possible to contact me with your internal response. This is the only thing we can do at present. I must know who killed Yang Ziqiong and who owned those tens of thousands of horses."

"As ordered."

"The rest of the people go back and rest, Xiaozhi stays."

"Damn, I guess it's me."

"Nonsense, this matter is not simple, who else can I discuss with besides you?"

……

Li Si and Ma Xiaozhi discussed for a whole day, and then hurried out of the camp, and ran to Nanyang County's prefect's mansion to meet Qin Wangzheng.

After hearing Li Si's report, Qin Wangzheng looked calm.

[I'm lost, after all, it's the emperor of the ages, and his face doesn't change, and his heart doesn't beat when he hears this kind of news! 】

【Why?Is he facial paralysis? 】

Qin Wangzheng's cheeks twitched.

You are the one with facial paralysis!

Rebellious!
"Li Aiqing, since the bandit army has been disbanded, can we continue to Yongcheng? After all, this trip should be done sooner rather than later!" Qin Wangzheng controlled the veins on his forehead and endured it very hard.

[Fuck, there was such a commotion just after arriving in Nanyang County that you almost lost your life. Are you still in a hurry to go to Yongcheng?Don't you know that Yongcheng is the stronghold of Lao Ai? 】

In fact, Li Si knew that this trip to Yongcheng was essential, otherwise Qin Wangzheng's personal administration would be somewhat inappropriate.

But Yongcheng is really too dangerous. I don’t know how long Lao Ai has been operating in Yongcheng. He even dared to send bandits in Nanyang County to intercept and kill the king of Qin. If he went to Yongcheng, Qin Wangzheng would be chopped up and fed to the dogs No wonder.

After much deliberation, Li Si and Ma Xiaozhi discussed for a long time, and decided to use Qin Wangzheng to play a trick of building plank roads in the open and keeping things in the dark.

Now he is here to discuss this matter with Qin Wangzheng.

As soon as Li Si talked about the strategy, Qin Wangzheng immediately showed hesitation, obviously he was moved by the talk...

That night, Huang Zhen led three hundred dragon guard cavalry to go to Yong City first.

They are responsible for inquiring about the details of Yongcheng.

Thirteen days later, the dragon guards led their troops to the city of Yongcheng unimpeded.

No interception, no assassination.

It seems that the tens of thousands of bandits before were nothing more than a nightmare.

The news that the dragon guards escorted Qin Wangzheng to Yongcheng to worship his ancestors had already spread, and when the dragon guards arrived at the gate of Yongcheng, someone had already arranged to pick him up.

The ostentation here is not small, even a little exaggerated. The prefect of Yongcheng led the local officials of Yongcheng to welcome him, and there were countless people watching in the city.

Before entering the city, the prefect of Yongcheng stood outside the city gate and greeted him with the highest etiquette.

Li Si was not considered a vain person, but he was still a young man with full of vigor. At the moment when he was being watched by thousands of people, he felt a little smug in his heart.

"This is really a long face, don't laugh, be more serious, as if we have never eaten sweet dates, put on airs enough." Ma Xiaozhi babbled at the confidant of the guard Longwei, but he grinned I can't stop laughing.

The prefect of Yongcheng is a fat old man who has been raised very well, with a round face and few wrinkles.

He took two quick steps, stood in front of Li Si out of breath, and bowed to the ground: "The person who came is Master Li, the commander of the dragon guards? I don't know where is the king Longjia? Shang Zhifang, the prefect of Chenyong City, begged for Longyan."

Li Si winked at Ma Xiaozhi, and Ma Xiaozhi drove forward, coughed lightly, and took out a scroll of imperial edict.

"Follow the sky..."

Shang Zhifang, the prefect of Yongcheng, changed his face, and quickly knelt down to accept the order.

But as Ma Xiaozhi began to read the imperial decree, his expression changed again and again.

The imperial decree said it was very simple, Li Si was promoted from the position of the commander of the Dragon Guard to the commander of the Dragon Guard, and became one of the few generals in the Qin State.

At this point, when Li Si sees the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty again in the future, at most he will meet with his peers, and he will definitely not be inferior.

The imperial decree only mentioned Li Si's promotion, but did not mention anything about the officials in Yongcheng, and seemed to have no attitude at all.

But Shang Zhifang who can become the prefect is a fool?Sometimes no attitude is the biggest attitude!
His face was extremely ugly, his eyes were dull, and he didn't know what he was planning.

"Get off the horse, thank you, Your Majesty." When Li Si was about to step into the city gate, he pulled the reins suddenly, then raised the waist knife in his hand, and roared sharply.

The dragon guard beside him raised the battle flag in his hand and waved it in the wind, conveying military orders to the soldiers behind him.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of dragon guards got off their horses and roared loudly, resounding through the streets, deafening.

"Dragon Guard, thank you King for promoting."
