my wife is mulan

Zhao Junsheng was deep in thought when a long eagle cry came from the sky.

Immediately, the messenger ran down the mountain with a few soldiers. When they came to an open flat ground, they whistled. The eagle in the sky saw them and flew down after circling in the air.

The ministers and generals all came to Zhao Junsheng, they knew that there must be some important news, otherwise it would be impossible to use the eagle to send a message.

Not long after, Zhao Ping came to Zhao Junsheng and reported: "Father, there is news about Rouran!"

Zhao Junsheng said in a deep voice, "Tell me, where are they?"

"Our commander who stayed at the entrance of the valley sent someone to report to King Jing that Rouran's army did not march according to our preset route. They turned around after marching for a day, because we only had 1000 people at the entrance of the valley and could not stop them. The Rouran army, so they have been hanging near the back of the Rouran army. After Rouran left the valley, they marched northwest along the mountain south road. The speed was very fast, but they were quickly discovered by the Rouran army. The Rouran people sent After 3000 people are cut off, our troops have lost the news of the main force of the Rouran Army!"

Chapter 911 News from the North

The news of losing the main force of the Rouran Army is not good news for the Gan Army.

"We have been busy for so many days, but we were still freed by the Rouran people. Isn't this time for nothing?" Xu Yan said with a deep frown.

"Cough cough, cough cough" Someone coughed twice in a row.

Xu Yan couldn't help turning his head to look at the coughing person, but it was his good friend. He saw that this person was winking at him. He immediately realized that he had said something wrong just now, and designed to force the Rouran person into the mountain. Setting up an ambush and waiting here for the Rouran people to throw themselves into the trap are all Zhao Junsheng's ideas. Isn't he blaming the emperor by saying this?This is disrespectful!

Xu Yan's face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty, I'm guilty of being rude, lying, and guilty, please be punished!"

Seeing Xu Yan kneeling on the ground, Zhao Junsheng came back to his senses at this moment, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Nian you are the first offender, so I will punish you lightly, remove your current official position, and deprive you of your title. You still have some talent, so I will let you temporarily take over the original position to see the effect later, if you make mistakes again, you will be punished severely!"

"Yes, thank you His Majesty for giving me a light sentence, I am so grateful!"

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand to get him up, and he pulled the map aside and started to study it again.

Although the plan failed this time, Zhao Junsheng was not discouraged. No one dared to pat his chest and say that he was exhausted. When Zhuge Liang would kill Ma Su with tears, he would ask himself whether he was as wise as brother Zhuge. Nearly demon.

Looking at the map and studying it for a while, Zhao Junsheng slowly raised his head, and gave the order: "Send the order, we are about to break out of the camp and set off at the end of the day, and rush to Dibochi at full speed, and send a message to Wei Jing, asking him to lead his troops to meet me at Dibochi , there is no need to search for Rouran people anymore!"

The generals stood up together and held their fists together to accept the order: "I will obey the order!"

The ministers and military generals dispersed to prepare for the departure of the camp. Several ministers gathered together and talked in a low voice while walking.

"You said that His Majesty ordered the army to go to Dibochi, and asked King Jing to lead the troops to meet up at Dibochi. What do you mean? Does Your Majesty think that Rouran Khan Tuhe will really take the army to Dibochi?"

"I think His Majesty probably has this idea!"

"If I were Rouran Khan Tuhezhen, I would definitely not lead soldiers to Dibochi to Khan Court! I don't know what's going on at Khan Court now, and it would be dangerous to go rashly. I I will lead the troops to the west, and will not send people to the Khan Court to check the situation until it is safe!"

Zhao Junsheng ordered the army to rush to Dibochi, others are guessing, but Dongfang Chen and other ministers still know, although there is hope to stop Rouran's army in Dibochi, they are also planning to go to Dibochi Try to contact the East Route Army and the Center Route Army.

The distance between Zhuoxie Mountain and Dibochi was not too far, so Zhao Junsheng and his army rushed there in two days.

That night, the army camped beside Dibochi.

Dibochi is also a relatively large lake. Dou Xian, the cavalry general of the Eastern Han Dynasty, joined forces with the Southern Huns to defeat Shan Yu of the Northern Huns near here. Ministry, 3000 people surrendered.

Regardless of Dou Xian's fault, just from a purely military point of view, Dou Xian conquered the Huns four times, forcing the remnants of the Northern Huns to move westward, completely eliminating the threat of the Northern Huns to the border of the Han Dynasty. Huo Qubing is even worse.

The tent at night was a bit stuffy. Zhao Junsheng enjoyed the coolness in the open-air camp like the soldiers. In this season, there are too many and fierce mosquitoes at night in Mobei. Even if incense and smoke are lit around, there are still mosquitoes Fly around.

Zhao Ping came over and reported: "Father, Xinying has already been released. If Bai Jinguang and Wei Juan couldn't get in touch because they were too far away from us, this place is closer to Rouran Khan Court. It should be a contact." Got it!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "Keep an eye on it at any time, and report immediately if there is news about the East Route Army and the Central Route Army!"

"Yes!"

At this time, Na Yan also came over and reported: "Your Majesty, sentry cavalry have been deployed within a radius of thirty miles. Anyone who appears can hardly avoid our eyeliner and eyes and ears! In addition, the minister is still staying in Zhuoxie Path. Once the nail is set, as long as Rouran takes the wrong path, we will know soon and have enough time to make deployment and respond!"

Zhao Junsheng got up: "Wait slowly, wait for two days! It just happens to let the soldiers see more of the scenery in Mobei. It may be possible to come and see this once in a lifetime. It is rare!"

Zhao Ping and Na Yan clasped their fists together and retreated silently.

"Zhao Ping stay!"

Zhao Ping stopped when he heard his father's voice.

"Come with me to the lake!"

"Yes!"

The father and son came to the lake one after the other. The night by the lake is a bit cool, but there is water, grass, and many mosquitoes. If you stand still, you will be surrounded and bitten by mosquitoes soon.

Zhao Junsheng asked as he walked, "Have you written to your mother during this time?"

Zhao Ping was a little embarrassed when he heard that, he patted the back of his head and said, "I'm all focused on the war, so..."

Young people are like this, only parents care about their children, and children never care about their parents' well-being, Zhao Junsheng shook his head helplessly.

"Your mother asked about you in the letter, and asked me not to arrange for you to do dangerous things, worrying that you will encounter accidents in the war! Other soldiers also have parents, wives and children, and their parents are also worried at home. With their safety in mind, will it be dangerous for you to stay by my side? No matter how many things there are, don’t you have time to write a letter?”

"Before the expedition, your mother quarreled with me, saying that I shouldn't take you out, marching and fighting is too dangerous, and she will die on the battlefield if she is not careful, but she doesn't think about it, her son is also a son , people's parents don't worry about their own death on the battlefield?"

Zhao Ping was very ashamed and lowered his head: "My son is wrong!"

Zhao Junsheng felt that this topic was too heavy, so he changed the subject and asked, "Do you know the origin of this boiling pool?"

Zhao Ping replied: "I have read the relevant classics before I set off, and I deduce that Fuchi was called the private canal Biluhai in the Han Dynasty, and the river that flows into it from the north was called the Xiongnu River in the Han Dynasty. I don’t know what Rouran people call it a river, but the water in the lake is salty, but the river is fresh, it’s really strange!”

Zhao Junsheng said: "It's nothing strange, this lake has a lot of salt. Look around, there are hills and high mountains. After years of rain, the mineral salt on the mountains has been washed down and accumulated in this lake! The water in the Xiongnu River from the north is snow water or rain water from the melting snow of Jinshan Mountain!"

"There are four rivers flowing southward from Jinshan Mountain, and two rivers flowing northward from the northern foot of Jinshan Mountain. The names of these rivers have changed with the changes of the times, and they have been diverted many times. These rivers are all fresh water, and they are all drinkable. The army, merchants, or shepherds go north along the rivers. If they go from east to west, they have to take some fixed routes. There are still long distances between the rivers. , the water source can only be found on a fixed route!"

Zhao Ping asked: "Did the father come to Dibochi before?"

"I have been to Mobei once, but I have never been to Dibochi. When I first came here, I felt very fresh like you. If it wasn't for war, I must be in the mood to appreciate the scenery of the Mobei prairie. After a long time, I feel very boring , There are too many mosquitoes here, too fierce, if you don't light incense or use smoke, a living person can be sucked dry of blood overnight, or even die from the poison of mosquitoes!"

The father and son walked along the lake for half an hour before returning, and each returned to their tents to rest.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zhao Ping rushed to Zhao Junsheng's camp to report: "Father, you have received a reply from Bai Jinguang and Wei's family!"

"Oh? What did they say?"

"The note that Xinying brought is small and has a lot of words, so the font is very small. I have ordered someone to copy a copy of it. Please read it!" Zhao Ping finished speaking and handed over the two folded books.

Zhao Junsheng took the two notebooks and opened one of them to read.

The first thing I looked at was Weijuan's report. It turned out that after receiving Zhao Junsheng's last order, Weijuan turned and continued to go to Rouran Khan Court. A group of tactical confrontation, Rouran's few soldiers left behind, lost after a few days of confrontation, and scattered to retreat.

Wei's family led the army to ignore the retreating Rouran cavalry, but went northward along the Sushui River to the eastern section of Jinshan Mountain, crossed the Qionglong Ridge and approached the Khan Court.

The Rouran cavalry who harassed the Wei family members could not calm down now, and immediately withdrew towards the Khan court at the fastest speed. They arrived at the Khan court before the Wei family army arrived, and organized the old Rouran who stayed there Ruowei moved to the northwest with his family and a large number of cattle, sheep and horses.

Soon, the Wei family's army met Bai Jinguang's army who led the army to the Khan court. Now Bai Jinguang and the Wei family's soldiers and horses have joined forces, and they are spreading out around the Khan court to search for Rouran people.
