Daming Super Dimension Company, President Zhu Yuanzhang!

At this time, Guo Xin came over and happened to hear these words, so he said: "I won't come back."

The veterans were stunned for a moment, and then asked one after another: "Not coming back? What about our brothers! We can't let them be alone here!"

Guo Xin looked at them and said: "When we go back, we can at least have some status. It's not like our brothers have no descendants in the capital. We can always protect them when we go back."

The veterans fell silent, because these words were not unreasonable.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran said: "I have to go back anyway, let's wait until we get back."

At this time, a Xuanjia soldier ran over and said, "Sir, General Guo, Your Majesty said we will set off in a quarter of an hour."

Guo Xin nodded, "Okay, okay, I'll take the people there right now."

Xiao Ran and others walked towards the gate of the mansion. Before leaving, Guo Xin looked back at the city gate, then turned to follow Xiao Ran and others.

A group of people rode away at a gallop.

The veterans can't even go to the battlefield, let alone ride a horse. As for Li Shimin, let alone that. The only rookie is Xiao Ran.

At this time, Xiao Ran suddenly remembered what the doctor said, maybe these veterans were in better health than him.

Xiao Ran was very excited at first, but in the end he couldn't stand it anymore and simply went back to the modern age.

He planned to wait until Li Shimin arrived before going there.

As for Li Shimin, Guo Xin and others, they galloped all the way on horseback. They also encountered several waves of Tibetan soldiers on the way, but they brought part of the Xuanjia Army with them, so they were naturally fearless.

At this time, the court also received the news.

Yanying Hall

Li Shi was shocked when he looked at the letter in his hand that said that the Anxi Protectorate had sent surprise troops from the sky and had recovered Beiting and other places in a few days and was on its way to the court.

He looked at the eunuch beside him and asked, "Where is the messenger?"

The eunuch said: "This man is waiting in the side hall. He said he is a Xuanjia soldier under Emperor Taizong."

Li Shi was shocked and doubtful, and decided that he had better meet the person first before talking, so the Xuanjia soldiers who came to deliver the letter were called in.

"Are the things stated in this letter true?" Li Shi asked.

Xuan Jiabing nodded, "His Majesty and General Guo Xin are on their way. They will arrive in less than two days."

It was only two days anyway, and Li Shi could afford to wait.

Two days later.

Li Shimin, Guo Xin and others entered Chang'an and walked towards the palace.

Li Shi learned that they were back and hurried to the palace gate to greet them.

In front of him, he saw Li Shimin wearing a dragon robe, and to his left was Guo Xin, followed by a group of white-haired soldiers.

Li Shi looked at Li Shimin in shock, because the Xuanjia soldiers who came to deliver the letter said that Li Shimin was here, so Li Shi went to the Ancestral Temple to see and then look at the portrait of Emperor Taizong. It can be said that he remembered Li Shimin's appearance clearly.

Looking at Li Shimin, who was no different from the portrait, Li Shi suddenly knelt on the ground.

"Li Shi, the descendant of future generations, comes to pay homage to His Majesty Emperor Taizong!"

The surrounding ministers also quickly knelt down.

"I will bow to His Majesty Emperor Taizong!"

Li Shimin raised his hand and said, "Get up."

After Li Shi stood up, he looked at Guo Xin and said, "This is Guo Duhu, right?"

Guo Xin's expression was a little confused. It had been a long time since he heard this title.

"General Guo Xin, please pay homage to Your Majesty." As he said this, Guo Xin knelt down.

As soon as his legs bent, Li Shi quickly helped him up.

"Thanks to you, Anxi has been able to hold on for so many years! From now on, Guo Duhu will not have to kneel down when he sees me!"

Just when Guo Xin was about to refuse, Li Shimin on the side said: "You have some conscience!"

Li Shi knew that what he did was not honest, but he had no choice, so he could only smile and said: "His Majesty Emperor Taizong, Guo Duhu, and the soldiers of Anxi, it is windy outside, let's go in first, I We have specially set up a banquet to welcome you all!"

But Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "No need, the war is tense now, why should we hold a banquet!"

Li Shi stood there awkwardly, but it was Li Shimin who taught him a lesson, and he did not dare to refute.

I just heard Li Shimin say: "Bring out all the food. Let's just treat it as a family banquet today. It just so happens that I have something else to tell you."

Li Shi nodded quickly after hearing this, "Yes, just do as His Majesty Emperor Taizong said."

The ministers looked at each other, not knowing how to react.

Li Shimin glanced at them and said, "Ministers, please go back and rest first. We'll talk about anything tomorrow."

When the ministers heard this, they quickly bowed and left.

Guo Xin and the veterans were hesitant. They didn't know where they should go now.

Seemingly sensing their hesitation, Li Shi said: "Don't worry, everyone, I have already ordered people to tidy up the mansion for you."

Guo Xin said quickly: "General, thank you for your kindness!"

Li Shi smiled and said, "That's what I should do."

Li Shimin looked at Li Shi and said, "If you are serious, let's go and have a meal."

Li Shi quickly agreed, and a group of people walked to Linde Hall in a mighty manner.

After sitting down, Li Shi looked at Guo Xin and others and said, "I never imagined that Guo Duhu could hold on for so many years! Alas, I can't help you!"

Guo Xin stood up and returned: "Your Majesty, everything is for the Tang Dynasty! The general will have no regrets!"

Li Shi's eyes turned red instantly. He glanced at every veteran, hesitated for a long time, and asked, "Are these the only soldiers in Anxi?"

As soon as he said these words, the tears of Anxi veterans fell instantly.

One of the veterans said: "If you tell your Majesty, there are indeed less than a hundred of us left. If it weren't for His Majesty Emperor Taizong, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to hold on for long."

Guo Xin sighed and said: "Actually, all the soldiers who followed the last general to the four towns of Anxi have died on the battlefield. The remaining ones are all the people of Kucha City!"

Li Shi's face was full of shock, his lips trembled for a long time, and he could not speak.

He had mixed feelings in his heart now, and he didn't know what to say.

Guo Xin wiped his tears and said: "I have nothing to ask for now. I just ask your Majesty to give us a place to stay. That is enough."

Li Shi quickly said: "How can this be possible! How can this be worthy of the Anxi Army's contribution!"

Seeing that Guo Xin wanted to say something else, Li Shi said directly: "I know what's going on, don't worry."

After hearing this, Guo Xin had no choice but to sit down.

At this moment, Xiao Ran suddenly appeared next to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin sat in the middle of the table, and next to him was Li Shi. Seeing this scene of being transformed into a living person, Li Shi was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground without being able to sit still.

Xiao Ran quickly pulled up the staggering Li Shi, "You are too courageous."

Li Shi looked at Xiao Ran and asked, "Who are you?"
