Chapter 259 The News Is Not Good

Gu Lanzhi thought for a moment and frowned in disdain: "This news happened five days ago?"

Li Beichen knew what Gu Lanzhi meant, and said helplessly: "Lanzhi, five days is already very fast for people of my generation."

Gu Lanzhi knew that Li Beichen was telling the truth, and he began to think about whether he should get some communication tools that were beyond this era for the intelligence center.

"You were out for two hours. What arrangements did you make?"

The border town has already been lost, how could Emperor Li Beichen not react immediately?

"Lieutenant General Zhang gained a lot of experience in the anti-bandit campaign, and those who followed him to fight the bandits are also talented people with great potential.

I have appointed Lieutenant General Zhang as general, and he will immediately set out to the border with an army of 200,000 to recapture the lost territory of Dongshun.

Food, horses, weapons and military supplies also set out at the same time.

The country has had ample food and fodder in recent years, and the treasury is also relatively well-stocked. We can afford to fight this war.

Even if it is a protracted war, we are not afraid."

Gu Lanzhi was familiar with the country's situation in recent years and knew that there was nothing wrong with what Li Beichen said.

But what Gu Lanzhi was worried about was that this battle might not be fought against the people of Xilin, but against the people of the Northern Territory.

The people of Xilin no longer have many soldiers available from the previous war. If they want to resist Dongshun’s army, the Northern Territory can only send troops to Xilin to fight Dongshun.

Deputy General Zhang understands the fighting style of the Xilin people, but he is not clear about the Northern Territory. This battle may be difficult to fight.

Gu Lanzhi did not express his worries. The army had just set out, and Gu Lanzhi could not let the army's morale down at this time.

Gu Lanzhi then asked about the Northern Territory, such as its national conditions, land, people, and products.

Li Beichen knew the Northern Territory quite well, and he explained everything very clearly to Gu Lanzhi.

Gu Lanzhi instantly connected the current Northern Territory with the Northeast region of his previous life, because the situations Li Beichen described were really similar.

Gu Lanzhi immediately became interested in the North Region. You know, the Northeast region in the previous life was known as the granary. The black soil in the Northeast nurtured the entire Z country during the founding period! How rich the products are!

It should be that people of this era are unable to discover the good of the Northern Territory, which is why the people of the Northern Territory live such a miserable life.

What if... the Northern Territory is also incorporated into Dongshun's territory?

Once Gu Lanzhi had this thought, he couldn't stop.

But when Gu Lanzhi looked at his current body, he could only sigh.

Now, let alone asking him to pick up weapons and lead troops to take over the Northern Territory, he still needs someone’s help even to sit up!

Li Beichen is the worm in Gu Lanzhi's stomach. Just by looking at Gu Lanzhi's expressions, Li Beichen has already guessed what Gu Lanzhi is thinking.

"Lanzhi, your task now is to take good care of your body and have a good confinement.

I don't want you to have any health problems because of other things. You have to stay with me for the rest of my life."

Gu Lanzhi looked at Li Beichen and sighed again. He really had the will but not the ability. He was now a useless person.

A useless person should have the awareness of being a useless person and take good care of his health.

Every day that followed, Gu Lanzhi would ask Li Beichen about the progress of his army's expedition.

However, it would take seven or eight days to travel from the imperial capital to the border even if one rode at full speed, and it would take at least ten days for a large army to get there.

Gu Lanzhi could only live in fear every day, waiting for the time when the two countries would go to war.

Gu Lanzhi's heart has always been on the border, and he is not as concerned about the three newborn children as he was when the baby was born.

The three children are basically taken care of by a wet nurse, but the three children stay in Gu Lanzhi's room every day to make it convenient for Gu Lanzhi to look after the children.

Li Beichen also knew that Gu Lanzhi was concerned about the border, so the first thing he did every day when he came back was to tell Gu Lanzhi what he knew.

Lieutenant General Zhang and his men arrived at the border on the tenth day.

However, Lieutenant General Zhang was very cautious and did not start a war immediately. Instead, he let the army rest first and sent people to investigate the enemy's situation.

It was twenty days later that Gu Lanzhi received the news that the two countries had gone to war, and there were only ten days left for him to finish his confinement.

But the news Li Beichen brought him was not good. The battle report sent to Kyoto by Deputy General Zhang said that it was indeed the troops from the Northern Territory who helped Xilin fight.

The soldiers from the Northern Territory were extremely ferocious. Deputy General Zhang and his men did not understand the Northern Territory's fighting style and did not gain any advantage. Although the two sides ended up in a draw, the casualties among the soldiers were heavy.

After hearing the news, Gu Lanzhi stopped talking and lowered his eyes, thinking about his own thoughts.

After twenty days of nourishing, Gu Lanzhi's complexion has improved a lot, but his body is still weak. Even if he eats medicinal food every day, it is impossible to restore his body so quickly. This requires long-term nourishment.

Li Beichen knew what Gu Lanzhi was thinking, he held Gu Lanzhi's hand, "Lanzhi, I know you want to lead the troops to the battle, but now is far from the time for you to take action.

You are the trump card of our Dongshun country and the confidence of our Dongshun country.

Besides, you are aware of your current physical condition and you cannot go on the expedition.

Our Dongshun Kingdom is now strong and powerful, so a single failure is nothing, so don't worry."

Li Beichen was really afraid that Gu Lanzhi would act on impulse and rush to the border.

Li Beichen really couldn't stop Gu Lanzhi from doing what he really wanted to do, so he was afraid of Gu Lanzhi's impulsiveness.

Gu Lanzhi looked at Li Beichen, then at the three children who were not even a month old, and sighed softly.

Li Beichen was right. Dongshun Kingdom now had the confidence to fight a long-term war and was not in a hurry.

Gu Lanzhi's restless heart was calmed down.

Li Beichen saw that Gu Lanzhi's expression had eased and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Lanzhi is a general. Although he is not the original Gu Lanzhi, he has inherited all of Gu Lanzhi's knowledge and abilities. He is a well-deserved general.

The country is in trouble, how can the general not be anxious!

Li Beichen understood Gu Lanzhi, but he was also afraid that Gu Lanzhi would put on armor and go into battle at this time.

If it was Gu Lanzhi's physical condition before she became pregnant, Li Beichen would not stop her.

Because Gu Lanzhi not only has all the skills of his original body, but also has mysterious supernatural powers, Li Beichen doesn't need to worry about Gu Lanzhi losing at all.

But it really doesn’t work now.

In such an anxious mood, Gu Lanzhi finally left the confinement period.

Even though the situation at the border was tense, Li Beichen still held a full-moon banquet for his three children.

At first everyone knew that the queen was pregnant and gave birth to a child, but no one knew that Gu Lanzhi gave birth to three children at once.

The news was only known after the child was born. Li Beichen told it in front of all the ministers during the court session.

After hearing this news, everyone knew that the queen's position could no longer be shaken.

The emperor has doted on the queen for so many years, and everyone knows that their relationship is very good.

Now with four more children, the emperor can be said to have a complete life.

As for starting a harem, the chances of that happening are even slimmer.

Some ministers who were still reluctant to give up finally stopped thinking about it.
