The temporary camp tent was covered with blankets on the ground, and all kinds of furnishings were exquisite and complete. Those who didn't know thought that Cao Bin had moved his family here.

The most speechless thing was that although Cao Bin was sitting upright, as if waiting for them, there were three women who were busy packing up the cards.

Zhong Er secretly winked at Zhong Shiheng, with contempt on his face, the meaning was obvious:

"That's it, why don't you say you're not a dandy? But for any decent person, how can anyone bring a concubine in a war?"

Zhong San was secretly envious.

When Cao Bin saw them coming in, he stood up and laughed loudly:

"I didn't expect the old general Zhong to be so polite, and he ran such a long way to pick him up. It's hard work!"

Zhong Shiheng hurriedly brought his three sons to salute and said:

"I'll pay my respects to Marshal Cao."

After the ceremony, he looked at Cao Bin suspiciously and said:

"Marshal Cao, I heard that Liang Jianjun is also here with you. I am about to pay a visit, but where is he?"

Cao Bin was stunned for a moment, and then shouted to the back: "Old Liang, someone is visiting, why don't you come out to see the visitor?"

"Uncle, wait a moment, the hot water will be ready soon."

After a while, I saw a middle-aged eunuch running in from the back door with a pot of boiling water, and handed it to Bu Yi Xiangyun graciously and said:

"Uncle, what do you want to do with this old slave? You can just figure it out."

Zhong Shi's father and son looked at Liang Ji in a strange way, and they couldn't believe it when they saw his dog-legged appearance.

Are you sure you're here to be a supervisor, not to serve others?

The internal servants and supervisors they saw were always arrogant, where had they seen such a humble supervisor?

Liang Ji saw Zhong's father and son staring at him, feeling uncomfortable and said:

"Why do you three look at the Sa family like this? Uncle Cao is my own family, what happened to the Sa family's servants?"

"You must obey Uncle Cao's military orders honestly, otherwise the supervisor will sue."

Does he know how important Cao Bin is in the eyes of the emperor and the princess.

This supervisor was recommended by Princess Zhaoyang, otherwise how would he have the opportunity to go out to supervise the army?

Therefore, he has already made up his mind that during the period of supervising the army in the Northwest, he must serve Cao Bin comfortably.

He said that Cao Bin is his own, and there seems to be nothing wrong with it. After all, he belongs to the princess, and the princess belongs to Cao Bin.

Zhong Shiheng nodded quickly and said, "Don't dare, dare not, Supervisor Liang, don't worry, I'll know what to do."

The three Zhong brothers didn't know what to say anymore, and Saburo Zhong was even more admiring.

Uncle Cao is the real hero, who can make the eunuchs who come out of the palace feel like worshiping gods.

This is the joy of fighting.

Only then did Cao Bin laugh and said, "Since the three generals are here, don't leave yet. Let's camp here today and rest, and tomorrow we are going to Yanzhou City."

When Zhong Er heard this, he hurriedly said: "Cao Shuai, the expedition is imminent, and there are still many things to prepare..."

Cao Bin waved his hands indifferently and said, "The other roads haven't reached the border, so why worry?"

The detailed deployment of the imperial court has been issued.

The person in charge of the whole army this time is the brother of the late Empress Zhang, loyal marquis Zhang Shanfu.

In addition, the female generals of the Yang family, the Siluo tribe of Tubo (gu), Cao Bin, and Tong Guan set out from Huanzhou, Yuanzhou, Qingtang, Yanzhou, and Linzhou respectively.

A total of 35 troops were raised, divided into joint attacks, and converged in Lingzhou.

As long as Lingzhou City, the gateway to Hexi, is captured, Xingqing Mansion will be like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and there will be no barriers to block it.

Early the next morning, not long after Zhong and his son got up, the golden drums began to sing in the camp.

I saw whistles kept ringing in the camp, and the soldiers quickly set up their camps. It only took more than half an hour, and they were already packed and lined up in a neat line.

6000 people crossed the bridge Raoqiu, sometimes separated, sometimes merged, marching extremely fast.

Among the ranks, there were both carriages and cavalry, interspersed among the marching pawns, without any confusion.

This made Zhong's father and son who were following in the team horrified.

Zhong Erlang couldn't believe it: "How did they practice this kind of march?"

He has seen soldiers who are proficient in battle, but he has never seen one who is so good at marching.

No matter how aloof he is, he has to admit that Cao Bin's subordinates have refreshed his understanding of the elite.

Never dare to mention the word "folk husband" again.

It's just that he didn't know that in the next two or three months, the training programs of Cao Bin's men were mainly long-distance training.

He believes that his followers may not be able to defeat others, but their ability to run must not be inferior...

It only took half a day for everyone to arrive in Yanzhou City.

Seeing the troops entering the Yanzhou barracks in an orderly manner, Zhong Dalang looked at the sun and exclaimed:

"It's so fast, it only took an hour to cover fifty miles."

After the soldiers were settled, Wu Song suddenly looked for him with a cold face and a job:

"Uncle, look, they give us these things to eat."

"Not to mention mutton, not even pork."

The father and son of the Chong family were speechless for a moment. It is good to have enough food, but you still want to eat meat?

Zhong Dalang quickly explained:

"Uncle, these are already the best corn and vegetables in the army. The transshipment envoy has been sending out some old rice to deal with them these days."

As he spoke, he paused, pretending not to know:

"Is uncle having some conflicts with some adults in the third division?"

Cao Bin also understood after he reminded him, it seems that old guy Cai Jing tripped him up.

As the saying goes, children who can bark get milk.

He's not going to hold back on that.

Then he turned to Liang Ji and said:

"Old Liang, I will leave this matter to you."

Some things are difficult for generals in the army to handle, but the supervising army doesn't have so many scruples.

Liang Ji chuckled and said:

"Uncle, don't worry, I'll send someone to block his gate tonight and pour shit on him, to see if they dare to act like demons."

Cao Bin nodded, then called Shi Qian and said:

"Go and find out if the transfer envoy has done any bad things, if not, plant him a little bit."

When Shi Qian heard the words, he immediately left.

As he spoke, he smiled and said to Zhong Shiheng:

"Next, let's write a memorial to impeach him, saying that the transfer envoy has aroused the anger of the soldiers... If we don't suppress it in time, there will be a mutiny."

"This Lord always likes to share the benefits. Everyone signs their names on the memorial. After all, is it also a credit?"

The other is that the father and son were stunned. This uncle is so vigorous and resolute, and he doesn't talk about martial ethics.

The tricks of the market and the tricks of rogues are really casual and unpretentious.

However, Liang Ji can only use this kind of method. If the generals in the army use it, they will be suspected of conspiracy.

Seeing that Cao Bin returned to Shuai Ya as if nothing had happened, Zhong Er shrank his neck and thought to himself:

"Good guy, it's fortunate that I didn't provoke and offend him, otherwise he would have been miserable..."

It's almost mid-March, and the dry branches of willows are full of fresh green, and the vivid colors wantonly show the vividness and beauty of the world.

However, the northwest border is already covered with clouds of war, and armies from all walks of life are gathered, and the sky is full of evil spirits.

Outside Yuanzhou city, inside the military camp.

Mrs. She looked at the energetic female general under the tent, then turned her head and asked:

"Guiying, have all the food and equipment been prepared?"

Mu Guiying nodded and said: "Old Madam, don't worry, everything is ready!"

Madam She nodded in satisfaction, and said in high spirits:

"Okay! This time the imperial court is going to destroy Xia in a single battle, this is the opportunity for my Yang family to build a career!"

"Zong Bao's title has been dragged down by us, and he has been directly lowered to the third rank. This time, he will earn it back!"

Aunt Yang nodded and said:

"Old Madam, don't worry, we will fight the enemy bravely and be loyal to our country!"

Old Madam She turned her head to look at the third mother of the Yang family and said:

"You should pay attention to collecting information, and report any orders from Marshal Zhang in time."

The third mother of the Yang family said:

"We act the fastest, and the other routes are still integrating soldiers, and we won't be able to go out for a while."

As she spoke, she laughed and said:

"The most lively place is Fuyan Road. I heard that Cao Bin has already fought with local officials there, and even the court has a headache."

"The supervising army in his army even ran to transfer the house himself, pouring dung and water on the house, smashing the windows, and making a commotion."

When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help but look at each other, both amused and speechless.

They are all dignitaries in the imperial court, but they have never heard of anyone using this method. Cao Bin opened their eyes.

However, the supervising army obeyed Cao Bin's words, but they also envied them.

The generals of the Yang family have always had a lot of concerns and taboos about people like the military supervisor...

Mrs. She shook her head helplessly and said:

"Hey, the army is about to go out, how can you escape like this, won't this delay the big event?"

The aunt nodded and said:

"The old matriarch should not count on the cooperation of the other groups. We have [-] troops, which is enough to invade Xixia."

Eighth Sister Yang was also speechless, but couldn't help asking:

"What did the court say, did you punish him?"

San Niang glanced at her, seeing everyone's curious eyes, she said with a smile:

"It's not his fault this time."

"The transfer envoy refused to give good rations to Fu Yan's army, and wanted to reduce his accompanying rations, so there was a commotion."

"It is said that it almost caused a mutiny among the soldiers, but after being suppressed by Cao Bin, they finally settled down..."

"Now the imperial court has demoted the envoy of Yanyan Road, and Cai Jingdu, the envoy of Du Zhisi, has been reprimanded."

"In addition, the lieutenant generals of Cao Bin's army all recorded a minor attack and were rewarded with [-] guan of silver to appease the soldiers."

The female general of the Yang family, who was a little speechless just now, suddenly became envious:

"I didn't expect Cao Bin to be really lucky, and he made a contribution without going out."

Mu Guiying shook her head helplessly, she didn't believe that Yan Yanjun would mutiny after eating old food for a few days.

This is likely to be Cao Bin making a big fuss to scare the court and deliberately invite people to buy people's hearts.

But the court didn't study it carefully, and she didn't plan to say it.

Five days later, Yanzhou Camp.

Zhong Shiheng and his son were reporting the situation of the army to Cao Bin, when Shi Qian suddenly came to report:
