  ————————————————————

  "Alright!"

  The crisp sound of hooves echoed, and a troop marched towards the east where the sun rises.

  This team is the report of victory team led by Li Changguo under the Anxi Protectorate to Chang'an.

  The number of people in the reporting team is not large, only about 200, but each one is full of joy, they are the source of joy, wherever they go, they bring joy with them.

  Kangde and Fei Re were overjoyed, whispering to each other in hushed tones.

  "Brothers, wasn't my judgment correct?" Kant proudly raised his head and puffed out his chest, with a self-satisfied expression: "When the brave General came to our garrison to join the army, I knew at first glance that he was a capable person, a hero among heroes. Without hesitation, I took him in."

  "Pffft!"

  Ferray and the others stared at Kant, looking at his saliva-splashing appearance, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  Think back to when Li Changguo joined the army at Weizhou, how did Kang De behave? He didn't believe in Li Changguo's martial prowess and even had people test him. Now, he is praising him to the skies, as if his eyesight was piercing and could see through everything.

  "If I hadn't brought Xiong Yongjun back, we would have been stuck as frontier soldiers for the rest of our lives. How could we have gone to Chang'an?" Kang De's tone turned high-pitched and sharp, extremely excited and yearning: "We're going to Chang'an! The capital of the Great Tang! Under the feet of the Son of Heaven!"

  As soon as they mentioned Chang'an, Fei and the others nodded heavily in agreement: "This is all thanks to the heroic lieutenant! If it weren't for the heroic lieutenant, we wouldn't have been able to go to Chang'an!"

  Chang'an is the capital of Great Tang, the center of the empire, and also the center of the world at that time. As a citizen of Great Tang, it is an unattainable longing!

  Being a Tang soldier is even more admirable!

  They were originally small soldiers, and they would never have had the opportunity to go to Chang'an even if they died of old age. Unexpectedly, because of Li Changguo's reason, he actually had this honor, and he was extremely grateful to Li Changguo.

  Kangde and Feire were discussing enthusiastically, getting more and more excited, especially the heroic exploits of Li Changguo's southern expedition, which was their most delightful topic.

  Li Changguo rode on a fine horse from the Western Regions, sizing up Gao Miaoli. He saw that Gao Miaoli was pouting, her cheeks bulging, and she didn't even glance at Li Changguo.

  Two people have had two unpleasant encounters, can they be happy on their third meeting?

  Especially at the second meeting, Li Changguo hinted that Gao Miaoli was a fox spirit, and Ya Tou Jing'er had a big mouth, shouting in public, making Li Changguo and Gao Miaoli extremely embarrassed.

  The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive and depressing. Li Changguo glanced at Jing'er. As soon as Jing'er saw Li Changguo looking at her, she quickly lowered her head, pretending to be uninterested.

  "Hmph!" Gao Mei Li coldly snorted, waving her small fist at Li Chang Guo and threatening: "I'll make you pay!"

  "Thank you!"

  Li Changguo was polite and courteous, with a gentlemanly demeanor, saying: "Miss Gao, I appreciate your kind intentions."

  "Who's being kind?" Gao Miaoli's words confused Li Changguo, and he looked around in confusion, unsure of what was going on.

  "I'm already good-looking enough, can't be any better, otherwise I worry someone won't be able to hold on!" Li Chang's verbal sparring skills were no less than his fighting prowess.

  "You..."

  Gao Mei-li made a threatening remark, but Li Chang-guo misinterpreted it and gained the upper hand. This verbal sparring match ended in defeat, leaving her speechless.

  "You're really thick-skinned!" Gao Miaoli muttered, her mouth corners curling up even higher.

  "Kang De!" Li Changguo suddenly shouted loudly.

  "Whoa!" Kant was blowing loudly, but as soon as he heard Li Changguo call him, he stopped blowing and rode over to him, dismounting to pay his respects. "I don't know what important matter the brave captain has?"

  "Go find a few oil gourds!" Li Changguo ordered solemnly.

  "Gourd?"

  Kang De, Gao Miao Li and Jing Er were all shocked and puzzled, with a look of confusion on their faces.

  "Xiaoyong school lieutenant, what are you going to use the oil gourd for?" Kang De asked with a puzzled face, stroking his cheek in confusion.

  This was exactly what Gao Miao Li and Jing Er had in mind. The master and servant pair opened their eyes wide, staring fixedly at Li Chang Guo.

  "There are people whose mouths are turned upwards, and it would be fine if they just hung a few oil gourds!" Li Changguo's eyes looked up at the sky, without looking at Gao Miaoli, but the implication was clear.

  "Who wants to hang an oil gourd?" Kond didn't understand and scratched his head in puzzlement.

  “……”

  Jing'er was about to open her mouth again and reveal the reason, but when she saw Gao Mei's unhappy expression, she wisely shut up.

  Li Changguo did not answer Kangde's question, but patted the horse's back and galloped away.

  Gao Mei Li gazed at Li Chang Guo's back, stomping her foot fiercely, but suddenly realized she was on horseback and couldn't accomplish such a magnificent feat. She raised both hands and tore at the air towards Li Chang Guo's back.

  The road from the Western Regions to Chang'an, of course, is along the famous Silk Road. At this time, although the Silk Road runs through desolate and uninhabited areas, it is not as vast and sandy as in later generations, but rather lush green grass, full of vitality.

  There were many caravans on the Silk Road, either heading west or rushing east. Whether it was heading east or going west, in short, there were many caravans, and hundreds of teams would be encountered in a day, which can be seen from the prosperity of the Silk Road.

  What left a deep impression on Li Changguo was that along the Silk Road, white bones were often found. There were human bones, horse bones and camel bones. The prosperity of the Silk Road came at a great cost, with piles of white bones serving as the best evidence.

  For several days in a row, Gao Mei Li was puffed up and ignored Li Chang Guo. Li Chang Guo tried not to get in touch with her as much as possible when there was nothing going on, and the two got along peacefully.

  That night, they set up camp and Li Changguo asked Kang De to send someone to boil some hot water so he could take a good bath.

  After several days of rushing on the road, he hadn't had a good bath. This time Li Changguo felt exceptionally comfortable as he soaked in the water, closing his eyes and letting out soft moans.

  "It wasn't until now that I realized how wonderful taking a bath is!"

  Li Changguo gave a wave of comfort and praised with a poet's tone.

  After soaking for a while, she stood up, picked up the towel and wiped off the water droplets on her body. Just as she was wiping, the curtain opened and Gao Miaoli rushed in.

  "Get out!"

  Li Changguo never expected that Gao Meili would come to his tent, and in a state of shock, he hurriedly used the cloth in his hand to cover his lower body.

  However, it was too late, and a majestic image of a gun-shaped giant with its head held high towards the sky had already been deeply imprinted in Gaomyeol's mind!

  "Ah!" Gao Mei Li's pretty face turned redder than a sunset as she shrieked: "You scoundrel!"

  Li Changguo was very depressed, seemingly you broke into my account, I showed it to you, I was at a loss, how did you put the bandit's number on my head?

  The biggest secret of men has been known by Gao Mei Li, Li Changguo is in big trouble!

  "Why didn't you station a few soldiers at the gate?" Gao Miaoli covered her eyes with both hands, accusing Li Changguo: "You did it on purpose, didn't you?"

  "What's with the soldiers? The whole team, except for you and that big-mouthed girl, are all heroic men carrying large guns. Who cares about these?" Li Changguo retorted, "Besides, since you're not on good terms with me, who would have thought you'd show up?"

  This statement is absolutely reasonable and too wonderful for words.
