Moreover, Han Xin also specifically promised to destroy Bai Tu.

Looking at his dead subordinates, Wang Li's anger had not diminished, but he no longer knew where to vent it.

In the end, he could only wave his hands in disinterest and say, "Let someone pull him down and bury him."

After saying that, he turned around and left the cave.

………………

At the same time, Dazeshan Shennong Hall.

Long Qe, Ji Bu, Ying Bu, and Zhong Limei gathered together.

At this time, they had already relinquished their military power and returned the peasant disciples to the various halls.

In this battle, even if they severely damaged the Raging Leopard Legion and Wang Li's headquarters, the number of casualties suffered by the peasants was still no less than that of the armor-piercing soldiers, or even 20 to 30% more.

The current preliminary estimate of casualties is around 15,000.

Of course, this is a big loss for the farmers, but compared with the armor-piercing soldiers who have been injured in many battles, it can only be considered a small bump.

At this stage of the war, it has nothing to do with them.

Han Xin left a message for them. He had already escaped, so naturally it was time for them to retire.

If you continue to hold on to military power, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction and defensiveness among others.

"Zhong Limei, won't you go to Songhai with us?" Yingbu asked nonchalantly to Zhong Limei, who was saying goodbye to them.

Zhong Limei shook his head. He was saying goodbye to Long Qie and the others just now:

"I won't go, I... was once an imperial soldier after all."

After this battle, it was obvious that he was no longer an Imperial soldier.

Han Xin's identity has been kept strictly confidential, but he has not. If nothing happens, it won't be long before the empire knows that he is helping farmers deal with the imperial army.

When he returned to the Imperial Army, he was captured and torn apart sooner or later.

Of course Gu Xun can protect him, but if he wants to protect him, there is no need to let him get involved in the battle of Daze Mountain.

Long Qi and the others knew that there was no turning back for Zhong Limei, so they directly invited Zhong Limei to officially join their old Chu clan circle and become a real Jing Chu F4.

But he refused.

The reason is very simple, what’s going on here is not buying and selling.

Long Qi and the others are now a little superior because they fought side by side, and they behave like brothers to Zhong Limei, but after a while and the blood cools down, they will still be thinking about Zhong Limei's background as an imperial officer.

There is a gap between the two parties. It is impossible for Zhong Limei to be truly trusted and reused. He must first find a way to gain trust.

However, when he has already entered the Chu family, it is actually difficult to gain real trust. On the contrary, it is easier to stay outside.

This was a plan he had discussed with Han Xin before.

After hearing Zhong Limei's response, Long Qie advised, "The empire is unjust. Since Brother Zhongli has made up his mind to fight for the common people in the world, why should he be worried about it?"

Zhong Limei raised his hands and cupped his fists in salute, "General Long Qie, I understand everything you said, but please forgive me for not being able to completely cut off from the past."

"Next, I still want to continue walking around this land."

"It is my honor to fight side by side with all of you. We are destined to be in the world. See you in the future!"

In the first half of this sentence, Zhong Limei said it sincerely and there was nothing false about it.

He really admires the characters and abilities of Long Qie and the other three, and is willing to make friends with each other, but the two sides have different positions and there is nothing they can do about it.

As for plotting against them... In war, any behavior of both warring parties against each other has no moral character.

Soldiers are the place of life and death!

When Zhong Lim came to this point, Long Qi and the others had no choice but to return the favor and say goodbye:

"Brother Zhongli, take care!"

"Goodbye in the world, brother Zhongli."

"Hey, take care, let's have a good discussion next time we meet!"

Zhong Limei nodded to the three of them and turned to leave.

Not far away, Meng Jiang was waiting for him with a horse.

This girl insisted on following Zhong Limei, saying she was taking care of him in return for saving his life.

That is to say, the young lady has no way to repay the kindness of the young master, so she can only pledge herself to him.

Zhong Limei didn't want to take advantage of other girls through so-called kindness, but he couldn't refuse Meng Jiang's repeated requests.

Because in his opinion, he owed someone the favor of saving his life, so how could he refuse so forcefully?

Besides, the situation around Daze Mountain is not yet stable, and it is not safe for Meng Jiang to stay here.

He can't save everyone, at least he has to save his own savior.

Zhong Limei got on his horse, then pulled Meng Jiang into his arms, and finally gave Long Qie a fist in his arms and rode away.

When Ji Bu saw this, he couldn't help but joked:

"After this battle is won, he will be the only one who has gained the real reward!"

"This boy is very handsome." Yingbu echoed, crossing his arms.

Long Qie was steady, just smiled, and then turned to the topic and said:

"It's time for us to set off and return to Songhai as soon as possible."

"I wonder how the young master and the others are doing now."

As the three of them walked towards the horses, Ji Bu asked, "I heard you say before that the young master seems to be in danger now?"

Long Qie nodded, "Yes, Mr. Xiang Liang previously reported that the young master and his friends were trapped in the mirage and have not escaped."

"But it has been confirmed that nothing happened to the young master and the others, they are just temporarily trapped."

"Phantom..." Ji Bu frowned, "That giant ship that is said to go out to sea to find immortals?"

"Yes." Long Qie nodded, and then said with a smile, "This ship is now the focus of Songhai, and even the whole world. After we go to Songhai, we will probably have to deal with it a lot."

Yingbu interjected, "What is there to study about a ship? I think after we meet the young master, we should gather the team as soon as possible and find the right opportunity to rebel against Te Niang!"

Long Qie smiled and did not refute, but replied, "Everything depends on the young master's wishes."

"Let's go!"
Chapter completed!
