After all, if Dong Ce left suddenly without giving any explanation, everyone might still be suspicious, and those who were suspicious would instruct someone to follow, and then they would find out the fact that he had gained a great benefit from the Empress Dowager Su Tai. Now that Dong Ce has put this matter on the table, it is not easy to make people suspicious.

Then Liu Ruozai gathered everyone together and announced the matter in public, and asked Dong Ce to set off in the afternoon of the same day, and it seemed a little anxious to set off so soon, but everyone could understand it.

Since we are going to separate, some things are inevitable.

At noon that day, Dong Ce hosted a banquet to entertain everyone, which was regarded as having another meal with everyone before leaving. In order to show his attention to Dong Ce, Liu Ruozai also went, not to mention Wang Wuluo, Liu Daqi and other generals, none of them were absent.

During the banquet, the tables were staggered, the cups were changed, and everyone drank quite happily.

When the wine was drunk, Liu Daqi stepped forward, hugged Dong Ce's neck, and said with a smile: "Brother Dong, there are people who don't like it in my life, but there are few who are pleasing to the eye, and you are one of them." You are a young person who has such ability, it turns out that my Lao Liu is not very convinced of you, but after attacking and killing the Jiannu envoy that night, I can be regarded as completely subduing you! You went back first this time, but we are going to the capital, so I don't know if we can see each other in this life. Lao Liu only said two words: take care! In the future, if you have any use for Lao Liu's place, send someone over to say it, if Lao Liu blinks, then he is not a person! ”

As he spoke, he patted his chest heavily.

He had obviously drunk a lot of wine, his face was a little red, and his mouth was full of wine, but his eyes were still clear.

Dong Ce couldn't see through him a little, and he didn't know if what he said was true or false, but at this moment, of course, Dong Ce would not say something that was uninteresting, and he laughed and said: "Brother Liu, with your words, brother, I will definitely bother you a lot in the future." ”

Liu Daqi smiled: "I can't ask for it!" ”

Liu Daqi took the lead, and then all the generals said goodbye to Dong Ce, no matter what the friendship was, at least they all stepped forward to say some warm words.

Tian Shi waited until everyone else had been there, and then he slowly stepped forward, patted Dong Ce's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Master Dong, let's go out for a walk?" ”

Dong Ce nodded: "Okay." ”

The two of them left the tent and walked slowly outside. The sun was shining at noon, and although it was midsummer, because it was the era of the Xiaoice River, and it was on the steppe of the northern frontier, the weather was not very hot even at noon.

After walking for a while, Tian Shi turned to look at Dong Ce, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Lord Dong, I really regret that I am a subordinate of General Huang Shen, and I am also the head of his family." ”

Dong Ce knew what he meant, but he pretended not to know, and said with a smile: "Why do you say this? ”

Tian Shi didn't expose him, but just sighed and said: "You and Huang Wan and Huang Shen will not get along, the entire Northern Hebei Province is well known, and Lord Huang has calculated you several times, but it has not succeeded." To be honest, this time, Lord Huang didn't want to send someone to travel with Liu Bingbeidao, but he was forced to have no choice, so he asked me to bring someone over. Before he came, he also told me that I must not let you have a good time along the way. But Master Dong, you can see it clearly, I Tian Shi didn't do much against you along the way, right? ”

Dong Ce smiled, and then his face became cold, and the smile on his face disappeared without a trace, and he said lightly: "You are not very competent as the head of the family!" ”

Tian Shi said: "Because I know you better than Lord Huang Wanhuang, the longer I have been with you, the more I know you, the more I understand a truth: it's best not to go against you." ”

He sighed: "Lord Huang Wanhuang, but I want to go wrong." ”

Dong Ce stared at him and asked, "What exactly do you want to say?" ”

Tian Shi took a deep breath, looked at Dong Ce's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I only hope that one day, Lord Huang Wan Huang will let you fight forever and will not be able to turn over, and it will no longer be possible to pose a threat to you, you can spare his life for the sake of the two of us fighting side by side in the past few days." ”

Dong Ce was slightly surprised, raised his eyebrows and said, "You are quite loyal!" ”

Tian Shi said in a deep voice: "If there was no Lord Huang, there would be no me today." As early as more than ten years ago, I starved to death on the side of the road, and it was Lord Huang who saved me and carried me, and I must repay it in this life. ”

Dong Ce shook his head and said noncommittally: "I really can't promise you about this, let's see!" If Huang Wan is like a poisonous snake that stalks people and wants to bite me, then I can only kill the killer. ”

He glanced at Tian Shi: "You are a good talent." ”

As soon as he said this, Tian Shi couldn't help but be stunned, and when he came back to his senses, Dong Ce had already turned around and returned to the big tent.

The noon feast actually started quite early, and the end was only three o'clock in the afternoon.

Dong Ce didn't drink much, and his subordinates had already prepared, and as soon as the banquet was over, Dong Ce said goodbye to Liu Ruozai, and left the tent of the Chahar Department with his subordinates, and slowly walked towards the southeast.

With this, we officially embarked on the road home.

After walking dozens of miles to the southeast, they have roughly left the area where the sweat tent is located, and at a glance, there are no herdsmen's yurts in a large area.

Empress Dowager Su Tai had already received a notification from Dong Ce and had already taken someone to wait here. The two teams gathered together, Dong Ce and the Empress Dowager Su Tai exchanged a few words of greeting, and then took people away. Anyway, it's not difficult to see each other again, the sea of water where Chahar Road is going to move is just one or two hundred miles outside the side wall of Xuanda, not far from Dong Ce's rock fort, if you really want to go, Kuaima will arrive in one day at most.

Dong Ce left with everyone and arrived at Jiayuguan in the evening of the same day.

He had in his hand the customs clearance documents issued by Liu Ruozai, Bai Yiqing and Wang Wuluo, which were issued by the governor of Gansu, and the entire Gansu town was unimpeded, and the defenders on Jiayu Pass were naturally released. It's just that Dong Ce and the others still encountered a little trouble when they entered Jiayuguan and caused some trouble.

Because when Dong Ce's three hundred Chahar elites entered Jiayu Pass, they were recognized by the guards on Jiayu Pass at a glance.

After all, in this era, there are considerable differences between the Mongolian people and the Han people in terms of clothing, behavior, etc., and these generals who have been guarding the border for a long time have dealt with the Chahar Department for such a long time, so it is natural to see at a glance.

At that time, the general guard of the Jiayu Pass Tower gave an order, and suddenly hundreds of strong bows were aimed at Dong Ce and others, as long as he gave an order, these hundreds of sharp arrows could shoot Dong Ce's people into a sieve.
