Dai Shulun walked into the house with a disheveled face.

Lu Dao jumped up in shock. He had been waiting for Deng Hong to come from Yongdu. He firmly believed that as long as Deng Hong appeared in the army again, the dispersed morale would inevitably be reunited. Deng Hong had been leading this team for many years after all. As long as the prince came, there was still a lot of potential. Even if he could not counterattack, he could still defend the front line in front of him.

But looking at Dai Shulun's appearance, he instinctively felt something was wrong.

Something must have happened to the prince.

In Yongdu, there is only one who can deal with the prince, that is the man sitting in that yellow palace, His Majesty the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty.

Everyone pushed him out when the wall fell, is Deng really going to finish?

Lu must have felt a burst of despair.

Dai Shulun looked at the dirt-faced generals in the room and waved his hand, "You all go out, I have something to say with General Lu."

The officers looked at Lu Jing, and Lu Jing nodded. The officers went out one after another, and the door was gently covered, leaving only two people in the room.

Dai Shulun had nothing to say, and Lu didn't say a word. The two sat in a depressed state for a while before Dai Shulun whispered: "What happened to the prince."

"I guessed that your Majesty wants to kill the prince?" Lu Dashang sighed: "If the prince is killed like this, I am afraid that half of the Qin Dynasty will be in danger."

Dai Shulun shook his head: "On the way I came, I had already received the news that the prince was not killed, but his freedom was restricted. Just yesterday, he had returned to the palace from the palace, but all the guards in the palace had changed to the emperor's people, and Yuan Yiqiu also lived in the palace."

"So, there is still room for recovery." Lu Zhen's eyes lit up.

Dai Shulun still shook his head: "If we don't take any action, things will get worse and worse. The emperor does not kill the prince, not because he is nostalgic, but because he is concerned about the domestic situation. If the prince dies, there will inevitably be chaos in the country. Therefore, a living prince is far more valuable than a dead prince."

"Brother Dai, then what should we do now?" Lu Zhen looked at Dai Shulun and asked, "No matter what, we have to find a way to rescue the prince."

"Of course we have to find a way, but with our current strength, it is obviously insufficient." said Dai Shulun.

"You want to borrow strength, but we still have strength to borrow strength." Lu Dao sighed. "The morale has been extremely dissipated now. If you know the news that the prince has lost his freedom, you are afraid that his morale will be even lower."

"The court will not say it explicitly, nor will it publicly punish the prince. Of course, we will not say it. Of course, let the generals who are absolutely trustworthy, let them know the prince's real situation now." Dai Shulun said. "In a few days, the prince will come to the army. You have to find a way to condense your morale first."

"The prince is here, I'm afraid he wants to be in military power." Lu Zhen was stunned, and suddenly showed murderous aura: "Or we should detain the prince and exchange it for the prince."

"Wu Lai. If you really do this, the prince will be dead." Dai Shulun scolded: "And, do you dare to confirm that your subordinates dare to detain the prince? Don't forget the lessons of the Luoying Mountains. A perfect planned military force for the palace collapsed because of the sudden appearance of the prince. Now I finally understand what Li Zhiqiu is doing over the years. This old fox, but we understand it too late."

"If you don't do this, I'm afraid that when the prince comes, you will find a way to seize my military power. At that time, there will be nothing." Lu Dao said depressedly.

"So you must quickly gather morale and let the prince understand that you are indispensable to this army now." Dai Shulun had a gloomy face, "This is one, two. This army must preserve its strength and must not be depleted any more."

"But the Ming army is about to fight." Lu Zhen said: "We can't retreat any longer. If we retreat again, Kaiping County will be lost."

"If you lose it, you will lose it. Retreat, retreat all the way to Qingzhou County. In this process, you must reorganize the military discipline and let the soldiers understand that the next step is to defend the country. Most of the military families of this army are in Qingzhou County. Whether it is officers or soldiers, they all know that there is no way out to retreat." Dai Shulun said.

"How can the prince deal with it?"

"If he doesn't say it clearly, you will pretend to be confused. If he asks for it publicly, you will agree immediately."

"Agree now?" Lu Dao looked at Uncle Dai in surprise.

"Because you agreed too quickly, he couldn't believe you." Dai Shulun said: "As long as you can hold the army firmly, Lu must, can you do this?"

"Of course I can do it." Lu Zhen said firmly: "My capital and life are firmly tied to the prince. One prospers and one loss is both prosperous and one loss is both harmful. Even if His Royal Highness recruits me, it is only a form of force. Once this army is really controlled by him, I am afraid that he will be the first to kill me. I am very clear about this."

"It's good if you understand this!" Dai Shulun nodded and said, "By the way, Lu Dayuan's family, you must hide it after you arrive in Qingzhou."

"This boneless guy surrendered, what else can we protect his family?"

"If Lu Dayuan does not surrender, it will be the fate of the entire army. If he surrenders, at least he will leave behind this ten thousand people. Lu Ding, Qin Feng still concentrates the guards of this army and has not been separated. What is his purpose in doing this?"

"not understand."

"I understand!" Dai Shulun said gloomyly: "Qin Feng wanted to swallow Daqin, so he would try to make civil strife in Daqin. When it really comes, I will make a deal with him to get back all the ten thousand elite soldiers of Lu Dayuan."

"How is this possible?" Lu must look at Dai Shulun in disbelief: "How is this possible? What are you using to trade with Qin Feng?"

"Qingzhou County!" Dai Shulun stared at Lu Jing: "This is why I want you to firmly control Qingzhou County."

Lu must swallowed, "Can Qingzhou County also be used for trading?"

"We will not do this until the last moment. When we do this, it must be the most dangerous time for the prince." Dai Shulun sighed and said, "At that time, we need Lu Dayuan's 10,000 people. This is a powerful force. So you must hide Lu Dayuan's family and not let the prince find it. If the prince finds it first, he will definitely get Lu Dayuan's family away. Then, we will have no choice."

"Who else is besides Lu Dayuan, what you said before?" Lu Zhen said: "Although the prince still has a lot of light and dark powers, their existence cannot change the overall situation."

"Xiao Qiang!" said Dai Shulun.

"Xiao Qiang, a rebellious boy, has something wrong with the prince. I am afraid that he is the most happy person. He has always wanted to establish his own family. Now that the prince has collapsed, the court will rely more on him and he is more confident. I am afraid that he will be the one who wants the prince to die the most." Lu Dao said angrily: "The prince was really blind back then, and he regarded him as his confidant general and entrusted him with important tasks."

"It's too late to say this now!" Dai Shulun sighed.

"How could he help us?" Lu Zhen shook his head.

"He has ambition, as long as he has this, it's enough." Dai Shulun sneered: "He is not only ambitious, but also very greedy. The best person to deal with is this kind of person. After I leave you, I will go to Hulao Pass to find Xiao Qiang."

"Brother Dai, you must be careful. Since Deng Fang's death, you have been the person the court wants to capture. This time, the court will regard you as a thorn in the eyes, because we are all in the open and you are the only one hiding in the dark. Your Highness the Crown Prince must quietly arrange forces to search you." Lu must remind Dai Shulun.

Dai Shulun smiled and said, "So what? They have to be able to catch me. Lord Deng Fang has gone, but the essence of the sand ants he has managed for many years is still in my hands. His Royal Highness's hands are nothing but some things floating on the surface. How can an intelligence organization be able to operate in a short time? I will come when I want to come, and leave when I want to leave. They can only hear the sounds of me and not see the person."

Dai Shulun has always been the most mysterious one among the core organizations of Deng's family. For him, Lu Jing had known him as ominous before, only after Deng Fang's death, this person officially surfaced. "No matter what, you still have to be careful."

"I can." Dai Shulun stood up: "I have to leave. Time is tight, and you have to prepare to retreat immediately. Don't wait for the Ming army to come, then you have to pay a price when you leave. Now every soldier is precious to us. Remember to steal all Fang County and arrive in Qingzhou, we will have a hard life."

"Of course." Lu Zhen nodded and said, "I won't leave anything for Mingren, I will only leave a mess for them."

Dai Shulun came and went in a hurry, and had not stayed here for an hour, so he left again and headed straight to Hulao Pass. After seeing Dai Shulun away, Lu Zhen was alone in the house for a long time, and then he called a personal guard and said several names. A moment later, the people who were called by Lu Zhen appeared in front of Lu Zhen one after another. After a group of people secretly discussed in the house for a long time, they left one by one.

That night, several Qin troops walked out of the camp, and the entire Fangxian County was filled with screams, crying, and blazing fire. Overnight, the people of Fangxian County, whether you are poor or rich, became the same after tonight. They all had nothing, and they had nothing except the clothes they were wearing.

That night, the Qin army began to withdraw from Fang County and left first. By dawn, there was no Qin army in the entire Fang County, leaving only a city of people who were about to cry without tears.

The Ming army vanguard, who received the news, only arrived in Fang County by the cavalry battalion led by Yu Chao, that night, and at this time, the Qin army had already gone far away.
