1068 Chapter 1068-returning gifts
Xue Qianyu’s mission was to cooperate with Yan Mo and take down the southern border.
Upon receiving the Imperial edict, general Peng immediately transferred 20000 troops and horses to Xue Qianyu. After they were reorganized, they could set off for the border.
It just so happened that the Gu family and the Peng family had their eyes on the land they were going to open up.
Xue Qianyu stayed at general Peng’s until dinner time. General Peng didn’t ask him to stay for dinner, knowing that he had a good relationship with the Gu family. The Gu family would definitely be waiting for him.
When he came out of the Peng mansion, Xue Qianyu saw Lu Zheng waiting for him. He walked up to Lu Zheng and punched him.
I was here half a year earlier than you, ” Lu Zheng laughed. and you’re going to the battlefield before me? ”
“Haven’t you already been promoted from regimental commander to general? You also have three thousand soldiers!”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They did not say anything else and went to the Yamen together.
At night, when the Gu family heard Xue Qianyu’s words, they couldn’t help but wonder if they should still open that place.
Lu Zheng knew what they were thinking and said, ” “Actually, we can proceed according to the original plan. It was too big and too far away from Lin mountain. Moreover, Xue ‘er also went to guard Lin mountain in order to stop those who want to escape from Lin mountain. Lin mountain is a dangerous place, and most people from the southern border will not choose to go this way.”
Uncle Gu sighed. if those who go to the wasteland reclaimers know that the great Zhou is about to go to war with the southern border and that Xue ‘er is guarding there with his men, they probably won’t go.
“The reason why there are so few people in kun city is because kun state is surrounded by neighboring countries. There are often Wars,” Gu shouxin added.
“I’ll ask old Peng tomorrow and see what he has to say,” Grandpa Gu said after a moment of silence.
Xue Qianyu understood what everyone was saying and said, ” “Actually, there’s no need to be so nervous. I’ve seen the map of the kun Prefecture from general Peng. It’s actually very difficult for the people of the southern border to escape from Lin mountain to the side of the river you mentioned. Within the area that you have marked, it will take a day’s journey to Mount Lin. The Emperor sent me here because he wants to thoroughly understand the southern border and then vigorously develop the kun Prefecture. Second uncle can give it a try. I promise that I will guard Lin mountain tightly and will not let a single person from the southern frontier Pass Lin mountain.”
second brother Xue, ” Gu Xin suddenly said, ” Grandpa Peng said that the river would pass through the southern border. What if the people from the southern border escaped through the river? ”
Xue Qianyu smiled. when the time comes, general ze will send people from the Navy to go with me. There won’t be any big problems.
……
No matter what, the Gu family had communicated with the Peng family.
Old general Peng’s intentions were the same as Xue Qianyu’s. It would take a day to ride a horse from the mountains, so they would continue with the original plan.
Of the 100000 strong Army of the Peng family, 20000 were given to Xue Qianyu, and the remaining 80000 were to defend the city. In order to speed up the excavation, old general Peng had sent 10000 to help.
Now that the land had been opened, farming was the Gu family’s business.
Xue Qianyu stayed in kun city for two days and left on the third day.
Gu Nian had been going to the laboratory outside the city for the past two days, so she was with Xue Qianyu and the others today.
As they were about to reach the laboratory, Xue Qianyu turned to look at Gu Nian. “I’m leaving.”
As Gu Nian rode on the horse, she took something out of her pocket and threw it to Xue Qianyu.
Xue qianxun quickly caught the dagger. It was a dagger embedded with gems. A smile flashed across his eyes as he looked at Gu Nian.
“I wish you a triumphant return!” Gu Nian said calmly.
This was the only time that Gu Nian had bought this dagger from the trading District. There were no gems on it at first. However, her younger sister had given her a few and she had embedded it in her own free time.
It was a beauty that fit her aesthetic.
Xue qianxun revealed a bright smile. “Alright!”
