Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 749 The Priest of Light
Now the territory of Jin and Shu is in complete chaos. These merchants who can take chestnuts from the fire must be the ones licking blood on the tip of the knife.

They come and go without a trace, and their identities are absolutely secret. It's good that General Peng has such a clue.

Therefore, the three gifts Lu Hao gave him were not too much, it could only be said to be a small reward.

Of course, if the other party could exchange grain for gold, silver and jewelry, Lu Hao would be happy to accept it.

Lu Hao was inspecting the city defense, so naturally he wanted to ask about the situation of the soldiers, what kind of demands they had, and what areas needed improvement?
As General Peng said, after these soldiers took the money, their morale was completely different.

Besides, Lu Hao also gave them such good food, and he would also reward them based on their merits. Who doesn't want to make meritorious deeds?
After a round of inspection, Lu Hao said goodbye to several generals and returned to Shu Le Hall.

Princess Furong and Princess Heshuo were whispering and stood up to greet each other at the same time.

"I would like to report to your Majesty that my father has acquiesced to the annexation of the Jin Kingdom to the Chinese Empire, and has also requested your Majesty to send troops to rescue the suffering subjects of the Shu Kingdom."

Princess Heshuo stepped forward and knelt on the ground.

"Heshuo, why are you kneeling down again? Get up, get up and talk!"

Lu Hao quickly helped her up.

"Please send troops to the emperor."

Princess Heshuo said again.

"Didn't I agree to send troops? And the two main armies have already set off. As you know, there are high mountains and mountains along the way, so it can't be so fast."

Lu Hao explained with a grimace.

"Your Majesty, there are more and more refugees entering the city today, and our food will be very tight."

Princess Furong interjected.

"Don't worry, I will solve this problem."

Lu Hao comforted with a smile.

"Didn't you say that the first batch of food was blocked by Zheng's army? So many of us want to eat, but we can't afford to wait!"

Princess Furong was worried to death.

"I have asked General Peng to exchange the five carts of gold, silver and jewelry for food. It should be done soon."

Lu Hao responded with a smile.

"Well, this is a way. Now gold, silver and jewelry are not as valuable as food."

Princess Furong actually agreed.

"Hahaha... I'm still worried that you won't be able to let go?"

Lu Haole laughed.

"Why are you reluctant to part with it? Gold, silver and jewelry cannot be used as food. If you exchange them for food, you can save more refugees."

Princess Furong is quite sober.

"Don't worry, when the Zhou Dynasty's army retreats, I will go and transport the food."

Lu Hao felt that he had to take action on his own.

"Alas... Your Majesty, I know you are working hard, but it is only one more person you can save now. Winter is about to come."

Princess Furong looked outside and sighed deeply.

"Okay, it's not hard for me. It's really hard for you to worry about the country and the people!"

Lu Hao smiled and stretched out his hand, hugged the two princesses in his arms, and walked towards the inner room.

Soon, happy voices sounded inside.

……

To the west of Jindu City, a white shadow flew from the sky and landed lightly in front of Zhou Lifeng's Chinese army tent.

"who?"

All the guards were shocked and gathered around him.

"All soldiers, welcome the Protector Priest of the Light Sect!"

Zhou Lifeng came quickly and knelt down on one knee.

"Welcome to the Priest of Light!"

All the soldiers knelt down and bowed.

"May the God of Light bless you!" the man in white robe said loudly.

I saw him slightly opening his robe, revealing a staff. He slowly raised it above his head, and white rays of light were released from the gem on the top of the staff.

Thousands of rays of light rose into the sky and illuminated the entire military camp. It was simply a miracle.

"God of Light! God of Light..."

All the soldiers shouted loudly, which echoed throughout the valley.

Under the admiring eyes of everyone, the man in white robe slowly walked into the Chinese army's tent, and Zhou Lifeng followed him in.

This man in white robes is named Ling Shitong. He comes from the most famous Guangming Cult in the Western Regions and is one of the direct disciples of Ni Guangming, the great priest of Guangming.

He is also a priest. To be precise, there are twelve great priests in the Guangming Cult, and he is one of the protective priests.

In the big tent, the man in white robe was sitting on the Grand Master's chair, looking arrogantly at Zhou Lifeng who was coming down below with his hands hanging down.

"Prince Feng, you are so anxious to come to me. Who do you want to kill?"

The man in white robe asked coldly.

"Master Priest, ahead is Jindu City, the capital of the Shu Kingdom. However, there is a master-level expert inside, which makes it difficult for me to attack for a long time, so I bother you to make a trip."

Zhou Lifeng responded quickly.

"Grandmaster-level masters? In addition to our Guangming Cult, there are also grandmaster-level masters in the Western Region?"

Ling Shitong said in confusion.

"This person is not from our Western Regions, but Emperor Yongtai of the Chinese Empire!"

Zhou Lifeng said loudly.

"What? Emperor Yongtai of the Chinese Empire? He is stationed in Jindu City?"

Ling Shitong was shocked.

"Yes, he is in Jindu City now. I would like to ask you to take action to purify this monster from the east!"

Zhou Lifeng said with a sinister smile.

"It's okay to kill Emperor Yongtai, but after killing him, the Chinese Empire will definitely use all its strength to kill him. Can you stop it?"

Ling Shitong asked with a smile.

What he meant was that after killing Lu Hao, the Chinese Empire would definitely take revenge. The Chinese Empire would definitely come over and the entire Western Region might be in flames of war.

Besides, once the master-level experts in the Chinese Empire learn that Emperor Yongtai has been killed, they will definitely come over with the same hatred as the enemy.

"Master Priest, this Emperor Yongtai occupies Jindu City. He reached out his hand first. How can you blame us?"

Zhou Lifeng argued.

He said, taking out a brocade box from his arms and handing it over.

Ling Shitong took it, opened it, took a look, showed a satisfied smile, and stuffed it directly into his arms.

"Drive away the darkness and keep the light forever! This priest will never allow the Chinese Empire to get involved in the Western Regions!"

Ling Shitong said seriously.

"Thank you, Lord Priest. Tomorrow I will lead an army to help you!"

Zhou Lifeng was overjoyed when he heard this.

Although Lu Hao has only performed one shot on the first day of the war, he has basically not taken any shots since then.

However, the presence of a master-level expert in Jindu City was like a sea-fixing needle, giving the defenders a backbone and doubling the difficulty of attacking the city.

If Ling Shitong takes action to kill Lu Hao, Jindu City will be destroyed.

When the time comes, if he leads his army to sweep across, even large areas of the Jin Kingdom will fall into the hands of the Zhou Dynasty.

Lu Hao was conducting in-depth research on human genetic engineering issues with the beauty, and he had no idea that such a powerful enemy was coming from the west.

the next day.

After breakfast, the armies of the Zhou Dynasty finally began to move.

When the news reached Lu Hao, he immediately flew towards Ximen.

When the two princesses learned that Zhou Lifeng was going to attack the city, they quickly followed.
