my wife is mulan

"Thank you, my lord, for your innocence!" Hua Mulan clasped her fists and stepped aside after speaking.

Tuobasu looked at the generals and said: "If you want to go out from Lulongsai and go all the way to Longcheng, the mountain road is rugged, and it is difficult for vehicles and horses to travel. Our North Route Army can only abandon the baggage and travel lightly. This king decided to go again. Stay for three days and prepare dry food for ten days and soybeans for the horses for the army. The food will be distributed to each army by the quartermaster later. After you go back, let the cooks prepare it before setting off!"

Under Tuobasu's signal, his staff member Wei Jun stood up and said to the generals: "Next, let's talk about the marching route after we leave the customs. Please look at the map. After we leave Lulongsai, we will enter the In the territory of Pingzhou in Yan State, we went north along Rushui, then turned eastward along Kuanhe and went northwest. Attack Yangwu County, Jiande County, and then go all the way to Fancheng, and then the army will move east into Bailang. When we reach Bailang, the terrain is a little flat, and my army cavalry can go straight to Longcheng to join His Majesty's South Route Army. I don't know everyone. Do you think such a deployment is feasible?"

Zhu Xiuzhi, the general of Yunzhong town, did not say a word, but He Duoluo, the leading general, agreed loudly: "I agree, let's do it this way, my lord, after Baitan is captured, the general will request to lead troops to attack Pinggang!"

Hua Mulan frowned, clasped her fists and said, "Mr. Wei, the deployment of troops like this is too scattered. If the Yan Kingdom gathers heavy troops in Pingzhou and Bingzhou, our army will be easily defeated! My lord, the last general suggests that after Baitan is defeated, go directly Attack Pinggang, and then move eastward to fight the white wolf, don't worry about other counties, rush to Longcheng in one go! With more than [-] troops of our North Route Army, even if there is no South Route Army, our North Route Army can still compete with the Yan Army The main force will fight in Dragon City!"

Wei Jun's face was a little ugly, he turned his head to look at Tuobasu, seeing that Tuobasu didn't make a sound, he had to explain to Hua Mulan: "General Hua, if we follow your strategy, our army might be caught in the rear. Dangerous danger! Even if the Yan army continues our army's rear, what if our army is fighting the Yan army in front of us, and the Yan army from Fancheng, Yangwu and other places come to attack our army's back?"

Hua Mulan retorted: "Didn't the lord just say that? The army abandoned the luggage and lightly packed, and without the luggage, how could we be in danger of being cut off? Abandoning the luggage means giving up logistical supplies. We can only advance but not retreat! To the dragon There are only a few roads in the city. After we take down the White Wolf, as long as we send troops to guard the White Wolf River, what can the Yan army in Yangwu, Fancheng and other places do to me? When our army captures Longcheng, the Yan army in other places will immediately collapse !"

They looked at each other, what Hua Mulan said seemed to make sense, why waste time on siege?There is only ten days of dry food. If you divide your troops to attack the cities, if you can't attack for a long time, won't you run out of food?

"Cough cough!" Zhao Junsheng covered his mouth and coughed twice, pulled Hua Mulan, signaled her not to say any more, and clasped his fists at Tuobasu: "Your Majesty's strategy is very good, and the final general agrees, if the other generals have no other opinions. , let’s do it like this!”

The generals looked at each other, what's going on?Zhao Junsheng actually agreed with this strategy, and even sang against Hua Mulan?

Hua Mulan was a little angry, and wanted to argue with reason, but was held back by Zhao Junsheng.

Tuobasu nodded: "Okay, since you all have no other ideas, let's make a decision. We will decide how to attack the various troops after Bai Tan is defeated. Let's go!"

"The last will wait and retire!"

All the generals withdrew one after another and dispersed.

After walking out of the lobby of the Lulongsai government office, Hua Mulan was very angry and said to Zhao Junsheng: "Brother Junsheng, don't you see that there is a big problem with Changshan King's strategy? Before arriving at White Wolf, The road is high and dangerous, and the march is very difficult. Our army is almost all cavalry. If the Yan army blocks us with infantry on the marching road, we can only be passively beaten. The only way to get rid of this embarrassing situation is to ignore The Yan army from other counties and counties directly attacked Longcheng at the fastest speed! If they fight slowly one by one, the Yan army will have enough time to mobilize troops!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled and said: "Of course I know your idea is right, but...you only considered it from the military aspect, not from the political aspect. Changshan King's deployment is also a helpless move. The emperor's this time It's a personal conquest by the imperial chariot, the emperor needs military merits, if King Changshan steals the emperor's limelight, the emperor will be very unhappy!"

Chapter 503

"Put tens of thousands of soldiers in danger just to take care of the emperor's face? Isn't the price too high? You people don't have a good thing, and you don't take the lives of soldiers seriously!" Mulan said indignantly and walked forward quickly, as if she didn't want to stay here for a moment.

Zhao Junsheng couldn't help but smiled wryly, and he caught up with Hua Mulan and said, "Mulan, why are you so angry with me, you actually put me in the same category as them, you really are!"

"Then why do you agree with King Chang Shan's strategy?" Hua Mulan stopped and turned to ask.

Zhao Junsheng said helplessly: "If it's not like this, do you want me to watch you fall out with King Chang Shan? I know your temper too well, and you can't rub the sand in your eyes, but will King Chang Shan compromise with you?"

Hua Mulan was silent.

Three days later, the army set off, leaving hundreds of people guarding Lulongsai.

The marching route was fixed, and the army of tens of thousands of horses must march along the river. After passing Luronse, it would not be so easy to find any water source.

Beyond the pass, here is the eastern section of the Yanshan Mountains, full of high mountains and dangerous peaks, sometimes tens of thousands of troops have to walk for a whole day in the long canyon, and sometimes it takes a whole day to climb over a mountain.

The traffic in Northeast China at this time was not as smooth as that of the later generations. There are barren mountains and wild mountains everywhere, and sometimes there is no road to walk at all. In order to allow the army to obtain water in time, the march is almost always close to the river, but some rivers will pass through the valley. The soldiers could only lead their horses and step on the cobblestones by the river, marching at a speed comparable to that of a turtle.

Two days after the march, He Duoluo asked Tuobasu to lead the way as the vanguard of the army, which is the so-called opening the way when encountering mountains and building bridges when encountering water.

This job was originally done by Zhao Junsheng's Youzhou Army, and He Duoluo rushed to do it. He Duoluo's leader.

Zhao Junsheng's brain turned for a while and he understood why He Duoluo wanted to be a pioneer. The pioneer had the task of detecting the surrounding enemy situation and environment. He guessed that He Duoluo might not be able to survive without eating meat for a few days. As a pioneer, it is natural to plunder the supplies of surrounding villages and towns on the marching road and use them as military supplies.

Facts have proved that Zhao Junsheng really guessed right. He is worried about He Duoluo, the vanguard is not so easy to be, if the military situation is delayed, the main force may be dragged into the trap set by the enemy, so he also Some scouts were sent to investigate the surrounding terrain and conditions on the marching road.

"General, many surrounding villages have been looted, and some villages have been ransacked, all by He Duoluo's people!" A scout came back and reported to Zhao Junsheng.

It happened that Hua Mulan was also here. After hearing the scout's report, she wondered, "No way, we didn't see any villages being looted during this journey. The villages we passed were all fine, but the eyes and expressions didn't treat us very well." Just friendly!"

Zhao Junsheng said: "Mulan, He Duoluo is also a person who wants face. Even if he wants to do this kind of dirty work, he won't let others see him. If he loots the village on the march, won't our tens of thousands of troops know it? So The places his people ransacked were all surrounding areas on the marching road!"

The scouts proved Zhao Junsheng's words: "Yes, the general is right, the villages he plundered are all within ten miles on both sides of the marching route, so it won't take too much time, and it won't be easy to be discovered by the troops of other armies! "

Hua Mulan didn't even eat the rice, she jumped up and ran out of the tent.

Zhao Junsheng immediately chased after her, but saw Hua Mulan galloping out of the camp on horseback, so he had no choice but to chase after her on horseback.

After running for five or six miles, the two came to a village. The village was unbelievably quiet, not even a chicken crowed or a dog barked.

The two rode into the village, but they saw corpses lying everywhere in the village, including adults, old people, and children. Mosquitoes and flies had already been flying around on the corpses, probably for two or three days.

"Beasts, beasts, beasts are worse!" Hua Mulan cursed angrily when she saw this scene.

Zhao Junsheng didn't know what to say, this is Xianbei's

He already knew the barbarism.

Hua Mulan suddenly turned around and galloped towards the camp.

Zhao Junsheng caught up with her and asked loudly, "Mulan, why are you going?"

Hua Mulan said angrily: "I'll go to He Duoluo and ask him if he really looted the surrounding villages and towns!"

Zhao Junsheng immediately sped up his horse and ran over to grab her: "What are you doing? This is Yan State, not Wei State. Even if it is Wei State, if he robs it, he will rob it. No one will punish him." If you went to him like this, wouldn’t it increase the conflict for no reason?”

"I don't care. It's wrong to loot the village anyway. Whether it's in our country of Wei or other places, the villagers didn't offend him, and they were looted and killed by him for no reason. This is an act of a beast. I must stop him from continuing like this." Keep going! Brother Junsheng, get out of the way, or I'll beat you too!" Hua Mulan broke away from Zhao Junsheng and ran away at a faster speed.

Zhao Junsheng slowed down and watched Hua Mulan's angry figure heading straight for the leader's camp, while some of her personal soldiers turned around and chased after her.

Lu Xuanbo, who followed, rode up to Zhao Junsheng and asked, "Why didn't the young master catch up and stop the young lady? If she followed her temperament, sooner or later trouble would happen."

Zhao Junsheng's tone was flat: "Let her make trouble. If you don't let her make trouble, you will be suffocated if you hold it in your heart. When she makes a scene, you will be at ease. Moreover, He Duoluo is really bad. Even if you make a scene It doesn't matter if something happens, it's me!"

Now that the North Route Army is gathered together, the camps are not separated, but are divided into areas, and there is no separation in the middle. Hua Mulan rushed directly into the leading camp.

"He Duoluo, He Duoluo, get out!" Hua Mulan yelled as soon as she arrived at the leader's camp and came towards the tooth tent.

Some leading soldiers came over when they heard the shouting and shouting. Hua Mulan turned her head and said angrily, "What are you looking at? Get the hell out of here!"

Hua Mulan's reputation has long spread, and now everyone knows that she has a tough temperament, and no one dares to provoke her easily. These leading soldiers will be stared at by her and scolded, and they will all cower and turn away .

Hua Mulan reined in and stopped outside He Duoluo's tent, and yelled into the tent, "He Duoluo, get out, get out!"

He yelled several times in a row, but He Duoluo didn't come out of the dental tent, and Hua Mulan jumped off the horse and rushed into the dental tent but missed.

She withdrew and grabbed the guard next to her and asked, "Where's He Duoluo?"

The guard ignored her, and when she got angry, she drew out her sword and put it on the guard's neck. The guard couldn't bear it anymore, and with cold sweat on his forehead, he said, "General, to King Changshan!"

Hua Mulan pushed away the guards, turned around, jumped on the horse and galloped towards King Chang Shan's central army tent. When she reached the door, she rushed in without waiting for the guards to notify her, and shouted: "He Duoluo, you beast! , how many villages do you think you have harmed in this journey?"

Changshan King Tuobasu was discussing with his staff about attacking Baitan, and He Duoluo came to ask for a fight.
