my wife is mulan

Halfway through the ride, Hua Mulan reined in his horse and stopped. Zhao Junsheng turned his head to look, stopped and asked, "Why don't you leave?"

"That...Brother Junsheng, I woke up this morning and drank too much water, I want to... pee, can you help me watch?" Hua Mulan blushed and said.

Zhao Junsheng held back his laughter and waved his hands: "Go, I'll wait for you!"

Hua Mulan immediately jumped off the horse and ran into the tall grass next to her. Zhao Junsheng soon heard rustling hissing sounds from the grass, and he felt itchy in his heart, as if being scratched by a kitten's paw. .

Not long after, Hua Mulan came out of the grass and saw Zhao Junsheng staring at her, her face turned red again, and she couldn't help it: "You are a bad person!"

Zhao Junsheng opened his mouth, "How do you say that, how did I become a bad person?"

"You listened so carefully, and you still say you're not a bad person? Don't you know that you should stay away, huh!" Hua Mulan said as she got on the horse, kicked the horse and ran forward.

Zhao Junsheng immediately chased after him, "If I go farther, if someone breaks into the vicinity and sees you...wouldn't it be a big loss for me?"

"You don't know how to gouge out his eyeballs?" Hua Mulan laughed loudly and left behind a sentence, galloping forward quickly.

"Hey, that seems like a good idea!"

When the two arrived at the wasteland, the scene of the hot court a few days ago was gone, and Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan were presented with a lifeless picture. Both the captives and the peasants looked weak when they worked. Even the overseers are a little lazy.

Hua Mulan called Gao Xu over and asked with a stern face: "Gao Xu, look at these people under your supervision, they were very motivated a few days ago, and now look at them, one of them is like a frost, how come it's only been a few days?" The sky has become like this?"

Gao Xu said with a bitter face: "The subordinates don't know what's going on. After discovering this situation, they immediately ordered the supervisors to be serious. Once found lazy, they will all be whipped! At first, the effect was good, but they recovered quickly. It's the same, and they often take advantage of the overseer's turning around to be lazy, and the subordinates have also been anxious to get angry in the past two days!"

Hua Mulan looked at Zhao Junsheng after listening, and Zhao Junsheng nodded. She immediately ordered everyone to gather and announce the new regulations loudly. The civilian husbands and captives are also boiling, and the effect is very good.

Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan breathed a sigh of relief as the problem of civilian husbands and prisoners not working hard was finally solved. Although the construction period may be delayed for a few days, it should not be too long.

At this time, a soldier galloped over to report: "General, the emperor sent an envoy to announce the order. Gao Sima asked the two generals to return to the camp to receive the order!"

Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan looked at each other, did something happen to the emperor?

"Go, go back to camp!"

.

Chapter 421

Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan hurried back to the camp. Just as they reined in outside the tooth tent, they saw Zong Ai walking out of the tooth tent.

"Hey, Brother Zong came to announce the decree in person?" Zhao Junsheng said and immediately jumped off the horse with Hua Mulan.

Zong Ai smiled and said to the two: "His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to this order, so he sent our family to go there in person! Time is running out, so I invite the two generals to set up an incense table to receive the order!"

"That's right, brother Zong, please wait for a while, and wait for me to order someone to set up the incense table!" After Zhao Junsheng finished speaking, he immediately ordered the soldiers to set up the incense table.

Zong Ai just took the imperial edict from a young eunuch.

Zhao Junsheng, Hua Mulan and a group of officials, generals and officials bowed down one after another to listen to the decree.

The general idea of ​​the edict is that the current battle of the army to attack Wuzhou Pass is not going well. If the battle is delayed for a long time, it will inevitably give the puppet emperor more time to prepare. If the battle is delayed until winter, it will be even more troublesome. She is quite experienced in siege, so she was called to listen to the imperial court.

After the imperial edict was announced, Hua Mulan promised loudly, "I accept the edict!"

Zong Ai handed the edict to Hua Mulan who got up from the ground, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is in a hurry, please take the time to make some preparations, General Hua, so let's go with our family to see you!"

Zhao Junsheng hurriedly said: "No matter how anxious you are, it's time to drink a sip of water!" After speaking, he waved to the other people in the tent, telling them to go out, and there were only three of them left in the tent.

"Come, come, brother Zong, let's sit down and talk!" Zhao Junsheng greeted.

Hua Mulan put away the edict, smiled and said to Zong Ai: "Brother Chang, there was a grievance between us back then, you tripped me up, and I beat you a few times, don't you remember that time?" Those grievances, right?"

Zong Ai couldn't help but smiled wryly, and waved his hand: "Hey, don't mention the scandal back then, if I knew you were a woman disguised as a man, why should I compete with you? But it's also your fault, you said you did it well Well, pretending to be a man made me think you were going to grab a woman from me! That’s all, the past is too bad to look back on!”

Zhao Junsheng said sternly: "Since we're talking about it, it's fine! Let's get down to business, brother Zong, the emperor really wanted to send Mulan to listen to the imperial court because the offensive was not going well this time?"

Zong Ai nodded: "That's right! The Wuzhou Pass is four feet high, extremely strong, and located in a dangerous place. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. His Majesty ordered a fierce attack for five days. Not only did it not shake it, but it also damaged soldiers and generals. heavy!"

Hua Mulan asked at this time: "I don't understand. Your Majesty knows that this time when the teacher returns to the capital, he will be resisted by the army of the false emperor, and he will also attack the strong city. Why did you let Brother Junsheng and I stay here?" How about building a city without letting us bring troops with us?"

Zong Ai hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then glanced at Zhao Junsheng again.

Zhao Junsheng said: "Brother Zong has something to say, just say it, Mulan and I have no taboos!"

Zong Ai then said: "Okay! There are only the three of us here, and there is nothing we can't say about this matter. Apart from the reason of guarding against the Rouran people, the main reason is that you are Han, and all the soldiers and horses under your command are It is composed of Han soldiers! The emperor and the puppet emperor are still brothers fighting for the throne, and he does not want the Han people to intervene! In addition, many Xianbei generals and ministers in the army have some complaints about your majesty canonizing you as General Pingbei and Yunzhonghou ; one is because you are a Han Chinese, and the other is because you are too young; the third is that the Chinese generals in the court already have Zhenbei General Zhang Li, Shuzi Army General Wan Dugui, Anton General Li Xian, and several others. General, General Hua is your fiancée, if you are allowed to drive into Beijing, the military strength of the Han people in the imperial court will be too strong, and the clan will be very afraid!"

Zhao Junsheng now understands that after all, the Xianbei people still don't trust the Han people, and they don't want the Han people to control their military power.

Hua Mulan was also very dissatisfied when she knew the thoughts of the emperor and the clan ministers. Why did she have to treat them differently?She thought for a while and said to Zong Ai: "Wuzhou Guancheng is four feet high and extremely strong. Your Majesty and other generals have no choice. Even if you call me over, I am not sure that I can take it? Your Majesty is too tall." Look at me, Mulan!"

Hearing Hua Mulan's tone, Zong Ai knew something was wrong, and quickly said: "General Hua, you have accepted the order, no matter what

Going to see you, as for whether you can take Wuzhou Pass or not, you have to try it to know, no one is fully sure, right? "

Hua Mulan remained silent, but she was actually thinking about how to attack the city. She had commanded the attack on Huaishuo City and Woye City before, but the walls of those two cities were not high, only two feet high. The city wall was four feet high, more than twice that of those two cities, and the difficulty of attacking was definitely not a matter of doubling.

The city wall is as high as four feet, and it is not easy to make a qualified siege ladder. The craftsman who builds the siege ladder must have superb craftsmanship so that the siege ladder made does not exceed a certain level when being climbed by soldiers. If the elasticity reaches a certain level, the siege soldiers will cause their bodies to undulate when they climb on it, and it is easy to feel fearful and unstable.

Zhao Junsheng said at this moment: "Mulan, get ready to go with Brother Zong. The imperial edict did not say that you would command the siege. Maybe the emperor just asked for your ideas as a reference? If there is any difficulty, send someone Come and talk to me!"

Hua Mulan nodded and said to Zong Ai: "Brother Zong, wait a moment, I'll make some preparations and come!"

"Okay, our family is here waiting for General Hua!"

Seeing Hua Mulan's back disappearing outside the tent, Zhao Junsheng told Li Bao, "Li Bao, you two go with General Hua, take care of her food and daily life, and protect her safety!"

"Yes, General!"

In addition to Li Bao and his wife, Hua Mulan took away twenty cavalry guards. Zhao Junsheng sent them all the way outside the camp, and saw them disappear into the sky.

"Old Lu!"

Lu Xuanbo stepped forward on his horse and clasped his fists: "Yes!"

"I'm still worried, you go too, but don't show up easily!"

"Understood, this subordinate is leaving tonight!"

After Hua Mulan left, Zhao Junsheng felt that life was not very interesting. When she was free, she could joke with her, make fun of her, secretly say some embarrassing words of love, and sometimes he could play tricks to take advantage of her.

Now that Hua Mulan is not in Wuchuan, Zhao Junsheng can't do anything well, but winter is not far away at this time, and the outside of the Great Wall is no better than the inside of the Great Wall. Once the cold winter comes, if you are not prepared for the winter, you will freeze to death.

Zhao Junsheng didn't dare to slack off, and led his soldiers and generals to urge the peasants and captives to step up land reclamation and farming, and to build the city wall. After the city wall was built, it could at least block some cold wind.

It took Hua Mulan, Zong Ai and others four days to rush to the camp under Wuzhou Pass, and they were quickly summoned by the emperor.

"My minister Hua Mulan sees Your Majesty!"
