Finest Servant

Turning around and looking away, standing in front of him is a beautiful female general. He was wearing Buyun's little boots, dressed in a silver-white shirt, and his figure was like a willow blowing in the wind, with exquisite bumps. Her eyebrows were slightly raised, and the water in the autumn was flowing, and there was a flush of tiredness on her white jade-like cheeks.

"Hey, isn't this Miss Xu," General Lin put a smile on his face and waved his hand hastily: "Brothers, call Master Xu quickly!"

"Mr. Xu!" His son-in-law was really well-trained. When General Lin gave an order, thousands of people raised their swords and guns and shouted together, their voices reaching the sky.

This is like the king of the mountain setting the scene, Miss Xu frowned slightly and glanced at him: "General Lin, I heard Du Xiuyuan say that your injury has not healed, you are still recuperating in the camp, and even the collegial matters are represented by others. Leader—" She paused, glanced at his leg, and her face was a little annoyed: "—General Lin, your injury is really 'severe'!"

The sarcasm in her words could even be heard by Gao Chief, let alone a smart person like Lord Lin.

"Hey, isn't it?" Master Lin looked at his legs in amazement, with a look of joy on his face: "It's not Miss Xu, you pointed out, I really didn't notice it. It turns out that I can move freely now, look. I have been marching continuously these days, and it is still beneficial to exercise up and down. The injury should be almost the same. Alas, I have been busy these days and forgot about such an important thing as recovery. Miss Xu came just in time. Today, I treat a guest, just Cook two small dishes in the army, and everyone celebrates."

Seeing him giggling, Xu Zhiqing couldn't help being annoyed, she hummed angrily: "It is convenient to go to Xingqing Mansion (now Yinchuan) in front of the army. It is near the border between Dahua and the Hu people, and the war is about to break out. Still in such a good mood? Not to mention quitting gambling and drinking in the military, have you never studied military regulations?!"

Stop gambling and drinking. Still rebooting, Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "Miss Xu misunderstood, I have always hated alcoholism. Celebrate with my brothers and drink some tea, these should not be illegal."

Xu Zhiqing had already experienced this man's sophistry. She gritted her teeth and snorted: "Although I haven't violated the precepts, I have cheated. When I return to the camp, I will report to the marshal—"

"Mr. Xu's words are a little unreasonable." Lin Wanrong cut off her words: "What is fraudulent injury? Before joining the army, what kind of injury did my leg look like. I believe that Sergeant Xu is also clear. One hundred days of bone, I was able to recover like this in just ten days. That is already blessed by God. Among them, my family and Big Brother Gao, I don’t know how much effort they put into it. How did it come to your mouth, but it turned out to be a fraud Hurt? I really don't understand."

His face was not good-looking, and he refuted it in front of everyone. Gao Chief and Du Xiuyuan looked at each other. I knew that there was Liang Zi between General Lin and General Xu, but I didn't expect that they would only say a few words when they met, and they started arguing again.

Hu Bugui is very clever.

Seeing that Miss Xu had a hint of anger, she hurriedly gave Lin Wanrong a wink and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, it's not easy for you to come here, why don't you do this, my army horses on the right are training, and General Lin has invented a new military training machine. The way, please also ask the military advisor to observe and correct.”

"Are you tying sandbags? I've seen it just now." Xu Zhiqing sighed softly, "Although this method is innovative, it's only implemented at this time. I'm afraid it's too late."

She said this to some people, Hu Bugui glanced at Lin Wanrong and did not dare to speak.

Why did he quarrel with this girl again, Lin Wanrong also felt a little funny, every time he met Miss Xu, he never lived in peace.

"I can't think of it this way," he shook his head, fixed his eyes on Xu Zhiqing, and smiled generously: "There is a good way, and it is never too late. I have calculated with Gao Yi, and if you continue to practice like this, within a month The results will come. You have to put your eyes on the long-term. It is not a matter of one or two days to fight the Hu people. Even if the current group of soldiers are training a little late, what about the latecomers? Sandbag practice, I don't believe it, we Dahua Jie Xue Erlang will not be able to catch up with that Turkic master?!"

Hu Bugui slapped his hand and opened his mouth: "Yeah, why didn't I expect to start training as a recruit? General Lin, you really woke me up from my dream. , that is the place where horseback riding is practiced. We in Dahua have elite sons, as long as we keep practicing, we will practice for three years if we can’t do it in one year, and if we fail in three years, we will practice for five years. There is no reason for us to lose to the Turks.”

Mr. Lin's ability to fight the battlefield is actually very simple, but his vision and wisdom are unparalleled in the world. He dares to think what others dare not think, dare to do what others do not dare to do, and his strategic vision is superhuman, and he is also very smart. Hu Bugui, Du Xiuyuan and others assisted him in the battle. The fighting strength of his right-wing army was really not to be underestimated.

This is what Xu Wei and Li Tai valued most about him, and Xu Zhiqing was no exception. Although he was arguing with him, but when he asked him to talk about it in a few words, there was a feeling of seeing the sun and moon behind the dark clouds.

Gao Chief's excitement infected everyone, and even Miss Xu couldn't help smiling, and the tension just now was swept away.

The training ground was extremely lively. Looking at the soldiers who were tied with sandbags, fell over and over again during the exercise, and climbed up again and again, remembering his hoarse speech that he had just listened to in the distance, Xu Zhiqing shook her head and sighed. , When it comes to deceiving people, no one is better at it than Lin San. If everyone has such a fighting spirit, why worry that the Hu people will not be destroyed, and the great China will not be prosperous?

She focused for a long time, her footsteps couldn't stop moving lightly, and she didn't know where she stepped on. Her mind was in a trance, but she felt someone gently pulling on her clothes, and looked up, it was Lin San, who had just quarreled.

"You, what are you doing?!" She quickly lowered her voice and said angrily, "This is a military camp!"

Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "I know this is a military camp, but I won't pull you in if it's not a military camp. The army has finished their drills, and dinner is about to start. What are you still doing here?"

Xu Zhiqing looked around, and it turned out that when she was distracted, the soldiers on the field had already dispersed, the cauldron of the Huotoujun had already been brought up, and the hot food wafted through the fragrance.

Her cheeks were flushed, but she snorted not to be outdone: "I'm observing the terrain here so I can mark it on the map. What are you doing here?"

"It's not that I want to stay here." Lin Wanrong said in distress: "Master, I just want to remind you - you stepped on my feet, I am a disabled person!"

Xu Zhiqing lowered her head and glanced. It turned out that she had just been watching the performance, and she was stepping on his new boots, embroidering half a small footprint.

When Hu Bugui Gaoqi and the others saw this scene, they were covering their mouths and snickering. Miss Xu's cheeks were slightly warm, and she snorted angrily: "It's no wonder I, who made your feet look like a fan, stepping on the heels The land is about the same."

The big feet are my fault, the big breasts are your fault, Lin Wanrong snorted and quickly glanced at her plump breasts, thinking of the fragrant scene in Jining Ning'er's room, and her heart was tingly for a while.

Xu Zhiqing took out a letter from her clothes and handed it to him expressionlessly: "The emperor's 800-mile expedited circular was sent to the army just now, look at it."

Lin Wanrong opened the letter, glanced at it briefly, his face changed constantly, and after a long time, he sighed and handed the letter back to Xu Zhiqing, speechless.

"On the way to the north of Sichuan, King Cheng was grateful for the emperor's generosity and kindness, and he felt shameless to face the world. He actually deceived the guards. The only way to apologize is death. The suicide note was identified by Mr. Gu Shunzhang, and it was indeed the handwriting of King Cheng. When the emperor heard the news, he burst into tears on the golden hall, his eyes were red and swollen, and he did not eat for three days and three nights. Everyone agrees to bury King Cheng next to the tomb of the late emperor."

After Xu Zhiqing finished reciting the edict, Chief Gao snorted: "At last, he still knew the shame and committed suicide in fear of sin! Bury this scoundrel and thief in the emperor's mausoleum. The emperor is really benevolent, and treats this thief with the utmost benevolence and righteousness."

Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Gao, don't be too demanding. Everyone is dead, so what's the difference where they are buried? After all, even traitors and thieves can have a place to bury their bones, and I don't know about us. Where will the yellow sand cover up those who go outside the Great Wall?"

"What nonsense," Xu Zhiqing glared at him angrily: "The battle is imminent, and the military's heart cannot be shaken. You won't go to the collegiate discussion these days, I'm afraid you won't even know where we are going."

in the whole army. The one who doesn't trust me the most, I'm afraid it's this military division Xu. Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly and said, "Ms. Xu, I'm a fool to eat. The lives of tens of thousands of soldiers are in my hands. Am I that bad?"

He found a piece of white paper, and took out a pencil from his arms, and he sketched an outline with just a few strokes: "We left the capital and went south of the Great Wall. From west to east, we crossed Yanmen Pass and passed through Mayi. , Shuofang. Currently stationed at the northern foot of Yanchuan, it is only a few hundred miles away from Lingwu, Xingqing, and Helan Mountains. Strictly speaking, if we take this route, we can see Hu when we cross the Great Wall. There's no trace of people."

His brushwork is concise, and he has a strong background in painting. Although what he outlines is a sketch, the orientation is not bad at all, and the marching route is very clear. Special warnings are also bolded at key points. With this skill alone, no one can match him except Xu Zhiqing.

"Brother Lin, I've convinced you," Gao Chief patted his head and said, "I'm with you every day, and I only see you eating, sleeping, playing and playing, but I've never seen you read the book of war, so it turns out that these early days You've been overcooked by you."

Lin Wanrong giggled and said: "Big Brother Gao has won awards and awards, and I have no specialties. I just use your sleeping time to read, and your reading time to sleep."

Knowing that this man's face was giggling, but his heart was like window paper, Xu Zhiqing finally calmed down and said angrily, "Don't think that just being able to draw some maps is useful, you have to put your mind into practice."

She took the pencil in Lin Wanrong's hand, sketched a few times along the direction marked on his map, and said lightly: "Look here, I don't need to mention the important positions of Xingqing and Helan Mountain, this is a natural barrier, blocking the The dust and sand in the desert also blocked the iron cavalry of the barbarians. This Xingqing is our center."

"From Xingqing to the north of Wuyuan, two hundred miles to the north, far out of the fortress, Yulin and Dingxiang, which are north of the Great Wall, are leaning on each other. These three places are isolated and surrounded by wind and sand all year round, and the conditions are difficult. The first front between Dahua and the Hu people. 'Ten years of wind and sand and eight years of dust, two years of Hu's calamity and broken soul', this is the ballad circulated in our army. For decades, we have been with the Hu people. There have been no less than a hundred battles, and the Five Plains are still in the hands of the Hu people, and my heroic spirits of tens of thousands of soldiers have been buried here forever."

She sighed and tapped the drawing lightly with the pencil, feeling a little heavy.

Lin Wanrong had already seen this map, and there was not much he could do about these terrains, except for his emotions. Outside the loneliness, the weather is harsh, the supply is difficult, it is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and even the tough Turks dare not stay here. As for Miss Xu's so-called first line, most of them are already in the hands of the Hu people. For Dahua, this line of defense no longer exists.

"And the second line," Xu Zhiqing drew a few more strokes on the map: "From Mayi, Yanmenguan, Zhongxingqing, west to Qilian Mountains, extending to the north of Kunlun Mountains and Dunhuang, this is my line. Dahua's lifeline."

In the northwest direction of Xingqing, she drew a heavy circle: "At the moment, the Turks have gathered 200,000 elite cavalry in Qilian Mountain and Wuyuan, and they will take Xingqing and Yulin directly. If this barrier is broken, then If the Hu people are flattened, my Dahua will be wiped out."

Xu Zhiqing talked for a long time, and the last two sentences were the key points. The Turkic goblin soldiers had already overwhelmed the territory, and Dahua had only the last natural danger to defend.

What's more terrible is that the 200,000 cavalry of the Hu people are flexible, they can attack the foot of the Great Wall when they advance, and they can stick to the depths of the grassland when they retreat. And Dahua's defensive front, from west to east, stretches for thousands of miles, if you are not careful, it can be collapsed in one place, and it has since become a state of doom.

The situation is far more complicated than imagined. How to fight this battle? Lin Wanrong sighed, his eyes straightened.
