Hello Chang’an

 About the discussion on this counterattack, unprecedented differences appeared in the accounts.

The fundamental reason for the disagreement is that Military Master Jiao and others all believed that the Crown Princess's decision was too risky, which seemed to be unacceptable to them.

They therefore refused further discussion and repeatedly begged the Crown Princess to abandon the idea.

As military counselors, they knew that this was a great war strategy that contained insight, decision-making and courage. However, it was difficult for them to agree because of their excessive courage.

Looking at the counselors who stood up and bowed to each other, the green-robed woman sitting cross-legged on the sand table did not waver: "Gentlemen, I have made up my mind."

Li Suining never lost her temper with them, and rarely showed her dignity on purpose. She even gave Military Master Jiao and others the impression that she was gentle and approachable.

Even though she was defying all opinions at this time, the expression on her face was still calm. The battle scars and bruises on the corners of her mouth had not receded. She had no expression, but she clearly conveyed an aura that could not be ignored.

Her eyes fell on everyone: "Everyone should know that this is the best choice."

"But now that you are the crown prince, you have a body worth thousands of gold!"

Li Suining: "So you only recognize my value, but don't recognize what I am capable of?"

The counselors were choked by her, some sighed, and some looked at Cui Jing anxiously, hoping that he could persuade them to stop.

Cui Jing, who had high hopes from everyone, said: "I will personally select the troops and horses accompanying His Highness for this trip."

The eyes of Military Master Jiao and others suddenly turned black.

Immediately afterwards, listening to the female voice coming from above, it became darker and darker -

"If you gentlemen don't hurry up and give me some advice, I will have no choice but to leave hastily." Li Suining said in a tone of breaking a jar.

"Your Highness is forcing me to wait until death to remonstrate with you!" Military Master Jiao, who always prides himself on being emotionally stable, feels that the last time he was so impatient was at least twenty years ago.

The mood of the man in charge was unusually stable. He looked at Cui Jing who was sitting beside him and said in a strange way: "Have you seen it, General? I have not yet ascended the throne, but some of my ministers are going to die to remonstrate with me."

Military Advisor Jiao was already a bit arrogant: "...if you ascend the throne in the future, you will definitely be a very troublesome monarch!"

Li Suining nodded with deep understanding: "Then I'm afraid the pillars of Hanyuan Hall won't be able to stay."

Military Master Jiao felt like he was about to faint, and this feeling seemed to have been familiar before - most likely, the younger sister resembled the older brother!

This tug of war lasted for three full days.

But during these three days, Military Master Jiao and others did not stop to discuss countermeasures. This was due to Li Suining's suggestion that seemed to be a concession: "You might as well persuade me while discussing countermeasures and make two preparations, wouldn't it be appropriate? "

Cui Jing often felt funny when he saw Military Master Jiao and others being manipulated.

This is how it is with her, no matter how difficult and heavy it is, even if there are thousands of mountains on your shoulders, she can always be lifted off by her in a short time. And during this breathing space, people will feel that this world is still worth it.

The final result was of course a complete plan, but Li Suining still did not give in.

In the end, Li Suining stopped treating him as a joke and said to Military Master Jiao and others: "I know what you gentlemen are worried about, and I hope you gentlemen know what I am worried about."

As a military advisor, it is your duty to worry about your general.

As the crown prince of a country, it is also his duty to worry about all the people.

Seeing Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess standing up to salute, Military Master Jiao and the others had no objections. They could only bow their backs and salute deeply in return.

After coming out of the tent with Cui Jing, Li Suining had some free time. When he was about to go see Chang Sui'an, he saw A Dian running over and said ecstatically: "Your Highness, Xiao Sui'an is awake!"

Chang Sui'an has been in a coma for many days. He was unconscious at first, then half asleep, and his body was burning for two consecutive days.

The night before yesterday, he was in a daze and called people intermittently, mostly "father", "sister" and "grandma".

Qiao Yumian, who had been taking care of him, broke out in a cold sweat. It was not strange to call him daddy and sister, but to keep calling him grandma... This made people panic. It is often said that when a person is about to die, he will see his dead body. It couldn't be that Brother Sui'an's mother came to pick him up?

But even if brother Sui'an's mother came to pick him up, she would definitely not be able to let him go!

Qiao Yumian made up her mind to rob Sui'an's wife outside the gate of hell, and did not dare to sleep a wink for two whole days and nights.

It wasn't until Chang Sui'an finally regained some clarity and survived this ordeal.

Qiao Yumian, who had been extremely tense since returning from the front line that day, had time to breathe a sigh of relief. When the breath dissipated, she could no longer hold on and passed out.

Li Suining first asked about Sister Mianmian's condition and found out that she was fine, then he and Cui Jing hurried to see Chang Sui'an.

Chang Sui'an reluctantly sat on the couch with a few pillows stuffed behind him. His body was almost covered with wound cloth and he could only wear a robe.

The moment he saw his sister, Chang Sui'an, who had lost weight rapidly, suddenly had red eyes: "Ning Ning, Grand Governor... I'm alive again."

His voice was unusually hoarse, and he sounded like a different person.

After such a life and death, the expression between his eyebrows and eyes also changed. At this moment, there was no rejoicing, only blank sadness: "I heard that General Wu Hu..."

It was even difficult for him to say any more, as his eyes were filled with self-blame: "It's all because of me."

He dreamed about General Wu Hu repeatedly. In one of the dreams, the person who died was finally replaced by him as he wished, and General Wu Hu survived... In that dream, Chang Sui'an only felt very lucky. It turned out that Being able to die is also a blessing.

The moment he came back to life and opened his eyes, he fell into torment of guilt.

"This has nothing to do with brother." Li Suining corrected, "This is my fault."

She said: "I insisted on dispatching troops from Jiangdu."

Chang Sui'an was stunned for a moment and shook his head with tears in his eyes: "No...if Jiangdu didn't come to help, countless people would have died."

"If you want to be held accountable, I am the only one to blame." Cui Jing said: "I was the one who led General Wu Hu out of Wuhu Mountain. As the commander of this battle, every death and injury of every soldier is the fault of the general. ”

Whether it's him or Li Suining, although their demeanor is not dignified, they all come from the heart.

Chang Sui'an was completely stunned. He wanted to shake his head and said that it shouldn't be calculated like this, but in the end, he suddenly understood something. His expression seemed to be choking in pain, but also seemed to be confused beyond an epiphany: "I didn't know until today , It turns out that the higher you stand and the longer you live, the more serious your sins will be..."

Li Suining looked at him: "Brother is now a qualified general."

Only by knowing one's own sins and the sins of war can one have true hatred and reverence for war.

Only by living and bearing this sin can you have a chance to kill more sins, and in the process, you must ensure that you are not defeated or swallowed up.

This is the only way for a general to pass, just like the process of breaking bones and rebuilding them - this is why Li Suining cherishes military generals so much.

Chang Sui'an lowered his head and shed tears, "Why Wu Hu", for all the comrades who died, for his sister and the governor, and for all those who bore the sins of the war.

This time, Chang Sui'an's silence was unusually long. After the decoction was brought in, he wiped away his tears and drank the medicine quickly without leaving a drop.

When the meal was brought to him, the sword boy fed him a spoonful and ate it quickly and cleanly. The tears in his eyes were suppressed again and again, but they never came out again.

There is no point in wallowing in introspection of sin; it will only lead you to hell. The war is still going on, and as a general, he must recover as soon as possible.

After finishing the meal, Chang Sui'an immediately asked: "Ningning, Grand Governor, how will the next battle be fought?"

Cui Jing looked at Li Suining, who was sitting there drinking tea to quench his thirst, and said: "The troops are divided into two groups, one to stay and the other to attack."

"Attack?" Chang Sui Anwei opened his red and swollen eyes.

He had always only had the words "station in the north" in his mind. Every time he looked north at the stretching mountains and boundless desert, he subconsciously acquiesced that the only possibility of this battle was "defending", and he never thought about attacking.

At this moment, I can’t help but ask: “How to attack?”

"Exit the customs." Li Suining put down the tea cup: "Straight into Beidi."

Chang Sui'an was even more shocked. Instead of attacking Asteh Yuanli's camp, he directly attacked the interior of Beidi? !

This battle...can it still be fought like this?

"Ning Ning, isn't this too risky?!"

"This time our army wiped out 20,000 Beidi soldiers and horses, and Asshi Deyuanli was injured. It is a good time for us to attack." Li Suining: "And if brother can't think of it, the people of Beidi will only think of it even more, so that we can catch them off guard." ”

"Ashi Deyuanli will never retreat easily. His tactics are to attack for a long time and wear out the battle. If we just defend without attacking, I am afraid that this war will not be truly over in three or two years, and we cannot sustain it for such a long time. A quick decision is the best policy.”

"The number of troops sent to Beidi this time is astonishing. Many tribes have almost turned out. This means that their rear area must be empty-" Li Suining said firmly: "If there is chaos in the rear area, they will have no choice but to withdraw their troops."

Chang Sui'an understood: "This is a strategy to draw out the firepower..."

Immediately he asked again: "But if we go deep alone, how can we provide supplies?"

As the Xuan army penetrates deeper, the first thing that needs to be considered is the long-term supply of food and grass.

"Beidi is different from other places. Their tribes are relatively scattered." Li Suining: "Every time I pass a tribe, I kill them all the way. Are I afraid of not having supplies?"

This is like trying to compete with someone without weapons. The other person asks why there is no weapon, and she replies: "I'll kill you later, won't I?" 】—It can’t be said that he is not arrogant.

Chang Sui'an was stunned, feeling helpless, and could only ask again: "Since their tribes are scattered, it must be difficult to find their location... How can our army determine the location of each tribe? Without getting lost and trapped in the desert?"

Li Suining: "There are captured soldiers leading the way."

"What if they cheat!"

Li Suining smiled: "Brother, don't worry, I have my own countermeasures."

Chang Sui'an nodded subconsciously. Just when he was thinking about any other doubts, his expression suddenly changed and he almost rolled off the couch. He looked straight at his sister: "Ning Ning... you have to personally lead the troops out to attack Beidi." ?”

It was Ningning who was going to lead the troops? !

How is this possible!

"No!" Chang Sui'an, who finally calmed down, burst into tears: "The desert is too far away, and we have to cross the Gobi. There are so many people who will never come back after entering! You have never been to Beidi. How can you lead your troops rashly?"

Hearing this sentence "I have never been to Beidi", Cui Jing's heart was silently moved -

When she first mentioned this decision to him, she rejected his proposal to lead troops into Beidi. The reason was that she had been to Beidi and she knew that place better than anyone else.

The scars in other people's eyes are just the blade she used to kill her enemies.

At this time, Cui Jing looked at her and saw only a trace of high-spirited spirit in her eyebrows: "Hundreds of years ago, the Han general Hou Huo Qubing defeated the Xiongnu, climbed Langjuxu Mountain, and built an altar to offer sacrifices. Heaven - now we are just going through the same path that our Han ancestors walked, so why should we be afraid of it?”

Chang Sui'an still couldn't feel at ease: "How can they be compared? At that time, the country was rich and the army was strong..."

Li Suining: "Now that Xuance's army is still there, who dares to say that I am prosperous and do not have strong troops?"

Facing those eyes that were steadfast and filled with the dignity of a great nation, Chang Sui An Yu's remaining words suddenly stopped, blood surged in his heart, and his vision became hazy but gradually became firmer.

Yes, the dignity of a great country should be like this, and it should have iron-blooded courage. What should we fear from mere thieves...!

He should not let his worries about his sister diminish his dignity.

My sister is not only a sister, but also a prince of a great country, a governor of a great country, and a general of a great country!

Chang Sui'an no longer stopped her, but suppressed her sobs and asked, "Ning Ning, when do you want to leave?"

Cui Jing, who was responsible for preparing the matter, answered on her behalf: "In three days, everything will be complete."

Chang Sui'an counts the time, takes medicine and eats on time every day, and spends the rest of the time sleeping to restore his strength. Apart from Qiao Yumian's physical condition, he never interferes with anything.

Three days later, at sunset, the army was assembled.

Cui Jing also put on his armor and mounted his horse.

In the plan, a team of soldiers and horses were needed to cover Li Suining.

As Cui Jing said before, he was responsible for choosing the people to accompany her, so he chose to lead his troops to cover and then accompany her for a while to protect her during this short journey.

The plan this time was for a surprise attack, so we chose to set off at this time. There were no drums or horns, but the atmosphere had a different kind of solemnity.

When the army was about to move out, Chang Sui'an, who was just able to walk, appeared in front of the soldiers and horses with the support of the sword boy, wearing armor and armor, insisting on accompanying him.

His sister is not only his sister, but she is still his sister. He cannot let her go on adventures alone!

Li Suining, who was wearing a black robe, sat on the horse and said to him: "Stop."

This tone was unreasonable, and Chang Sui'an looked up at her.

"If we go to capture Beidi, how can we allow wounded soldiers to follow us." Li Suining said: "If you dare to step forward again, you will be regarded as disrupting the march and will be dealt with according to military law."

"Ning Ning..."

The sword boy hurriedly grabbed his husband.

"Take good care of your injuries. Next time I send out troops, I will leave a place for you." After Li Suining finished speaking, he turned the horse's head and ordered to set off.

The horses' hooves were rolling. As they were leaving the camp, an unmanned rider suddenly ran out of nowhere and joined the team. He quickly passed the other horses and ran to the front with his hooves raised, and came to Li Suining's side.

Li Suining turned around and saw a bit of white on the forehead of the big brown-red horse, and the white hair on the temples was floating as it ran.

Not long after, a man and a horse came in hot pursuit. The man on the horse had a worried look on his face, and his voice bounced with the horse's hooves: "Your Highness, the fire is coming! I can't stop it even if I don't count!" (End of Chapter)
