Chapter 379: How Beautiful is the SaintessChapter 1543: Wu Yong

In any case, Zhou Changshou still replaced King Ning in managing the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry for a period of time, so based on his understanding of the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry and King Ning, Zhou Changshou knew that this distance was already the limit. If he got any closer, the soldiers of the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry might discover him, and then with King Ning's temperament, he would definitely kill him directly.

Since Zhou Changshou had accepted Li Chen's task, he naturally had a way to get in touch with the person.

He pulled a small firework from his pocket and, without hesitation, lit it and sent it soaring into the air.

Fireworks bloomed, visible for several miles around.

This scene caused quite a stir.

After all, what is the area around Yueya Guan like now It can be said to be fraught with danger, like a pressure cooker about to explode. Any slight carelessness could lead to an immediate outbreak of conflict.

So, anyone here should never take anything lightly.

Therefore, this strange firework was immediately discovered by the soldiers and reported up the chain of command until it reached Li Songru.

At this moment, Li Songru had not yet rested and was discussing military affairs with other generals.

Among them was Wu Yong, the valiant general who had just taken over command of the Iron Pagoda.

Three miles southeast of the military camp, there appeared fireworks of unknown origin.

Li Songru looked up at the scout captain who was reporting. His excellent tactical acumen made him instinctively sense that something was amiss.

"Apart from fireworks, what else is extraordinary" Li Songru asked.

The scout captain shook his head. "None found so far."

Li Songru tapped the table with his finger and said, "A firework wouldn't appear out of nowhere. It must have been released intentionally. This could be a signal or a code. We need to find out."

At this moment, Wu Yong spoke, "General Li, allow me to make a trip."

Li Songru raised an eyebrow and said: “Although it’s strange, it’s just a small matter after all. Why would you need Tie Futu to take action”

Wu Yong languidly said, "Anyway, there's nothing to do in the military camp. I'm bored, might as well go out for some fresh air. Besides, General Li didn't you say this matter must have a reason Maybe we can catch a big fish."

Upon hearing this, Li Songru no longer obstructed him and said, "Then I'll trouble General Wu."

Wu Yong rose, bowed, and then turned to leave the tent.

As soon as he left, a general trusted by Li Songru sneered: "Spineless is spineless. A dignified commander of the Iron Fortress would actually run off to investigate fireworks This kind of thing could be resolved by sending out a few scouts. A peasant is a peasant; he's gone crazy trying to make a show in front of the prince."

Li Songru said faintly, "Be careful with your words, General Wu's willingness to take a trip is naturally a good thing."

Speaking of which, Li Songru chuckled with a playful tone: “Maybe he actually caught a big fish this trip Wouldn't that be like showing his face to the prince”

"You know, he's only temporarily in charge of the Iron Pagoda. He was just promoted because there wasn't a better candidate at the moment. Both you and I see through this, don't we Does he really think otherwise That's why he's so anxious."

"Let him show off, then. It's better to let him do so than to have to confront him here."

When Li Songru was speaking, Wu Yong had already led a squad of thirty men out of the camp and headed straight for the southeast three miles where the scouts reported seeing fireworks.Chapter 1096: Great Qin Empire's Administrative Reform
