After seeing Lin Kunshan, Han Ruzi finally understood what mistakes he had made before: just because the person who came up with an idea and was entangled with it was Chai Yue, he thought that the key to the problem was the person, but he ignored an important fact. Chai Yue had nothing, and even if he wanted to take revenge, it was not afraid. There was only one real key person, and there was always that one.

Only the general Korean star can take it away.

Han Ruzi was much more at ease. After returning to the city, he became more perfunctory to Chai Yue, but there was a group of people he couldn't do anything perfunctory. The nobles had already given gifts and saw Juan Hou transporting the gifts from the car to the camp outside the city. This meant that he had agreed to everyone's request: to return to Beijing before the winter.

Cui Teng was the first to come to the door.

There is no need to live in a tent in Mayi City, Han Ruzi has a spacious room. Although it is still simple, it is much more comfortable than the luxurious tent in the wind and sand.

Cui Teng really treated Han Ruzi as his family, more polite than Donghai King. He pushed the door and entered, picked up the tea on the table and drank it, then sat opposite him, staring at the Zhonggu Army, "When can I leave?"

"Where are you going?" Han Ruzi pretended to be confused.

"Go back to the capital."

"You should ask the general for this kind of thing."

"No, I have already found out that you are the leader of the noble camp. You should report whoever leaves and stay. Then the general decides. If you don't submit the document, the general will have nothing to stamp if he wants to release him."

Korean stars may not be good at chasing the Huns, but they are first-class experts. Han Ruzi was unconsciously pushed to an awkward position. If he submits documents, he will be responsible for the reputation of the nobles. If he does not mention it, it will be the culprit that will prevent everyone from going home for the New Year.

Cui Teng put his elbows on the table, his eyes less than one foot away from Han Ruzi, "Brother-in-law, I think you are my own family, you won't treat me as an outsider, right?"

"Of course not." Han Ruzi leaned back a little.

"Your family helps your family, help me return to Beijing, I will help you... say, what do you want?" Cui Teng finally stopped mentioning the matter of "keeping your sister".

Han Ruzi pondered silently.

Cui Teng smiled, stretched out his arm and patted Han Ruzi's shoulders hard, sat back to his original place, and said tacitly: "I heard it."

"What did you hear?"

"In order to support the thousand-person division, you almost ruined your family's fortune. My family wrote to me, saying that my sister would go home almost every day to ask for money and supplies, everyone... In short, at least half of your division is maintained by the Cui family."

Han Ruzi felt ache in her heart, but a smile appeared on her face, "Yes, I didn't expect the cost of an army to be so great."

"How many are there? I'll make up for you." Cui Teng said carelessly, "Actually, there is no need to be polite to me. A good family seems to be apart. Our requirements are not high. Go home to see the old man and spend the New Year peacefully. Laojun is happy and gives his sister more money and supplies. Besides, military orders are in place, and it is a good time to make achievements. Everyone will definitely come back before the spring."

Han Ruzi laughed, "Since you said that... OK, wait for me to estimate it, I will give you a number in two days."

"Don't count too long, I have to leave some time to choose gifts for my family."

“Three days at most.”

"Also, you report the number, I'll ask someone to raise money, and then you let it go. If someone gives you money directly, don't accept it. There are not many good people in the noble camp, so who will harm you?"

"I only trust my own family." Han Ruzi smiled.

Cui Teng said goodbye happily and had a better impression of his brother-in-law.

Han Ruzi was just procrastinating. In the past two days, Chai Yue came very frequently, at least five times a day, and obviously he was a little uneasy. Han Ruzi guessed from this that the general Han Xing would definitely come forward within three days.

But he guessed wrongly. Korean star did not come forward, and even Chai Yue did not come. A large number of troops had been stationed in all parties, and the noble camp had not moved. It seemed that they would stay in Mayi City for the winter.

Most of the nobles are more satisfied with this, but those who want to go home early are even more anxious.

Cui Teng came early that morning, his face was as deep as water, and he still didn't knock on the door, did not report, and went in when he pushed the door. He didn't care about the slaves present. He stood coldly in front of Han Ruzi and stretched out the four fingers of his right hand, "Four days, brother-in-law, don't you tell me how much you want, and don't write a letter to ask us for leave..."

"Don't worry." Han Ruzi rummaged on the table twice and found a document. "It turns out that it's quite troublesome to settle accounts. The Ministry camp has not given me the exact number, but the leave document has been written, so the name is almost added. I have reserved fifty places. Is it enough?"

Cui Teng immediately smiled, "Enough is enough. Brother-in-law, you have to hurry up. Korean stars have a big appetite. The filial piety of the past doesn't count. If you want him to let him go, you have to take care of it. Alas, it's said that the Cui family is powerful, why don't I feel it? It's just that going home to visit relatives is so troublesome. No matter who you and the King of Donghai are emperors, I won't be so miserable."

"You can't say such words randomly." Han Ruzi reminded.

"I know the right way, only the two of us can dare to say it." Cui Teng ignored Zhang Youcai and Niu.

Cui Teng complained for a long time and finally said goodbye and left, "Brother-in-law, stop teasing me anymore. I have always had a good impression of you."

As soon as Cui Teng left, Nie Loach couldn't help saying: "Is it so difficult to spend the winter in Mayi City? Life here is ten times better than that in the fishing village!"

"It's more than ten times worse than the Cui family." Zhang Youcai smiled, but he was a little worried, "Master, you have to be careful. Mr. Cui, don't look at his current human appearance. Once he gets angry, it's not him. I saw Zhang Yanghao's bruised nose and swollen face, and he must have been beaten by Cui Teng two days ago."

"Why don't you fight back? Cui Teng doesn't look very powerful." Loach said angrily. He didn't like Zhang Yanghao, but he just couldn't stand Cui Teng's bullying.

"What everyone is afraid of is not Cui Teng, but Grand Tutor Cui." Zhang Youcai knows everything. "Teacher Cui leads troops to guard one side, and the power in the court is quite strong. If you hand over a memorial, the court will have to agree if anyone wants to lose his official position."

Han Ruzi just laughed and didn't comment.

That afternoon, Han Ruzi finally waited for the general Han Xing.

There were only tens of thousands of troops left in Mayi City. Korean stars took turns to patrol the battalions. Today it was the reign of the noble camp. No matter how much they wanted to leave the frontier, the noble children would never show it in public. They put on bright armor, rode fat and strong horses, lined up in series, and welcomed the general in a row.

The general was very satisfied.

After checking the list in the military tent, the generals withdrew with tactfully, leaving only the Central Guard and the General. Han Ruzi personally held a teapot and poured tea for the Korean star, and held the ceremony of the younger generation.

Han Xing looked at Han Ruzi pouring tea and sighed, "It's really aggrieved to let Juanhou do such a thing."

"Why did the general say this? It is better to be able to pour tea for the general here than to do nothing in the capital."

Han Xing laughed twice, and he sat in the main seat, pointed to the stool not far away, and signaled Han Ruzi to sit down too. Han Ruzi moved the folded stool and sat opposite the general across the case.

Han Xing held the teacup and turned it gently, his old face showed fatigue, "As soon as I saw the Taizu sword, I knew it was you who gave it."

Han Ruzi was stunned. This was a matter of more than a year ago, and Han Xing actually mentioned it at this time.

"But making merit depends on the timing. If the timing is wrong, the merit will become a sin."

Han Ruzi still didn't speak, waiting for the Korean star to lead the topic to the Shattered Iron City.

Korean star was silent for a while, without explaining what happened last year, and said directly: "I need some military merit."

"Next year the Huns..."

"No, no, this year, the 300,000 troops were controlled by us, the court spent a lot of money, and the world was in chaos, and the result was that there was no battle with the Huns."

"The General... Why didn't he pursue the Dong Shanyu?"

Han Xing shook his head, "You don't understand the Huns. There is no certain rule for fighting. Today they say they are retreating. Tomorrow they find an opportunity to take advantage of it, and they will immediately turn back and launch an attack. Juehou, the army of Da Chu is different now. The 300,000 soldiers are truly under my command. The two armies of the north and the south have different intentions. They all want to preserve their strength, dare to take advantage of the victory and pursue them, and are afraid to approach the strong enemy. In this case, if they pursue the Huns, if they do not go out for 500 miles, the team will inevitably be scattered, and instead give the Huns an opportunity to take advantage of it."

Han Xing sighed, "I am old, but I am not as old as I dare not fight. I just don't want to wait until my army goes deeper, but I find that the two wings are not protected and the Chu soldiers are in vain."

"The general and the court are in a difficult situation." Han Ruzi said perfunctorily.

"The most difficult thing is that others can't see how embarrassed I am. The memorials that scolded me in the court were already full of Qinzheng Hall. The most polite statement also accused me of being timid and cowardly and not suitable for being a general. I didn't want to be this general, but I couldn't just return to Beijing like this, and the reputation was second. If the court was exchanged for a reckless commander, it would probably bring about a great disaster."

Han Ruzi thought seriously for a while, "Is there no other way to encircle and annihilate the remaining Huns?"

"The Huns were very cautious, divided into dozens of strands, making small fuss, and had no clear goals. It was too difficult to get them together. Only Juehou came forward... Maybe it could do it."

Han Ruzi doesn't believe in Korean stars at all, but she really needs a legitimate victory.

"I don't want the court to change its commander."

As soon as Han Ruzi said this, Han Xing couldn't help but show a hint of joy, "I can't guarantee anything else. Looking at the court, I dare to value the Juehou in the army, and there will be no other person besides me."

Han Ruzi felt that the time was almost done, "Okay, maybe you can give it a try, but if the Huns were not fooled, I would have no choice."

"Of course, planning depends on people and success depends on heaven. No one can blame the lord for such a thing."

"I have a thousand-person team outside the city..."

"I allocate the money and food for one year to be supported by the court." Han Xing agreed to do so quickly.

"I will take the noble camp and defend the city with me."

Han Ruzi originally thought that the general would bargain with him on this matter, but he didn't expect that the Korean star slapped him on the table, "It should have been like this, and these noble children should have suffered a little, and perhaps it can attract more Huns."

Han Ruzi thought for a while, "I want to transfer a few people from the north and south armies to help."

Korean star finally showed signs of distress, "This... I'm afraid my order won't have much effect."

"If you don't transfer high-ranking officials, there will not be many people."

Han Xing finally showed a little bit of energy on his exhausted face, "In this case, I think I can do it. There is also the imperial camp. If Juehou wants to let anyone return to Beijing, just tell me."

Han Ruzi smiled. He didn't want to let anyone go back to Beijing, and even if he offended a large number of people because of this, he would do whatever he wanted. (To be continued.)
