The Emperor's Son-in-Law

Chapter 144 General Duan's Western Expedition

Duan Chun spent the whole day to arrange his plans one by one.

He just waited for Liu Er and some blacksmiths to make their own arrangements.

But on this day, Duan Chun helplessly discovered that he was facing the second biggest problem.

That is, there were few people who could read in the farm.

Others could not understand his plan, so he had to explain it to them in person.

This would not work...

As the sun was setting, Duan Chun rode a small fire and strolled along the river bank.

Looking at the material workshop being built, tomorrow afternoon.

The materials for the glass workshop can start to be collected.

Duan Chun has been waiting for the first batch of glass from the glass workshop...

Ah, it should be the first batch of glass products that are fired successfully.

He can officially start the streptomycin experiment and help the queen cure tuberculosis as soon as possible.

But if you want to conduct streptomycin experiments, you must have qualified experimental tools.

All kinds of tools such as beakers and straws have to wait until all the glassware is fired.

Then there is that acrostic poem...

Since the first day he came to this world, Duan Chun has been obsessed with this acrostic poem.

He knew very well that the other party must know his identity as the Prince of Changguo.

But the other party attacked him without any evidence, only based on speculation.

As a result, the real Prince of Changguo was killed!

That's why he came here inexplicably.

What secrets does the King of Wei have that are so shameful?

Nine ridges on the top of the mountain.

A lone fisherman in Cangxi.

Looking for flowers among the mountains.

You can explore the world.

...

"Uncle Zhang and Uncle Zhao, who knows where Cangshan is?"

Duan Chun asked calmly while riding a horse.

"Young Master, Cangshan is just north of the imperial capital."

"It was originally the hunting ground of the royal family of the previous dynasty."

Zhang Wu replied.

"Is there a Tanhua Creek there?"

Duan Chun continued to ask.

"Reporting to the young master, Tanhua Creek is a stream at the foot of Cangshan Mountain."

"There are peach trees on both sides of the river, and it is the favorite place for countless literati and poets."

"The peach blossom wine of Tanhua Creek is even more famous all over the world."

"The Zuiweng Pavilion at the head of Tanhua Creek is a holy place for literati all over the world."

Zhao Changlong replied.

"Zuiweng Pavilion at the head of Tanhua Creek, a holy place for literati all over the world?"

Duan Chun's eyes lit up when he heard it.

This cryptic poem was obviously brought to the Imperial Capital by someone, who wanted to give the contact address to another person.

But he was intercepted by the assassin of King Wei, and the coded poem finally fell on him.

From the time he woke up to now, less than seven days have passed.

The contact person must still be waiting in this Zuiweng Pavilion at the head of Tanhua Creek.

It seems that I must find a time to go and see.

And I have to avoid alerting King Wei.

While Duan Chun was thinking, a sound of horse hooves came from a distance.

"Reporting to the young general, the general asks you to go to the military camp immediately."

"The general will lead the troops to the western border immediately."

A team of cavalry rushed from outside the valley, respectfully clasping their fists on horseback and saluting.

"Did my father lead the troops to set off tonight?"

"Did something big happen?"

Duan Chun asked in confusion.

"Young general, the emperor's order is for the general to set off as soon as possible tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"There is no strict time requirement."

"The general has received the military rations and silver from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households."

"So we set off immediately to buy time."

The captain replied.

"Setting off in the middle of the night..."

Duan Chun was speechless,

"Young general, you don't know."

"Our general leads the Cavalry Guards and has long been accustomed to marching at night."

"The general is afraid that the soldiers are not used to the enjoyment of fighting, so this time he chose to travel at night."

The captain replied.

"Okay, then I will go to the military camp immediately."

Duan Chun nodded.

Rush all the way to the military camp, passing the river valley outside.

You can already see the glass workshop being built on one side of the valley.

The reason why the workshop was chosen here is that Duan Chun plans to build it outside the valley.

In the future, a large number of new workshop clusters will be built.

Chemical industries such as glass, soap and perfume will not pollute the environment in the valley.

Transportation is also more convenient, which will facilitate the transportation of goods back to the imperial capital in the future.

There is no need to disturb the tranquility in the valley.

The valley is wide and the military camp of my father is just ahead.

Even a large area of ​​unowned land can be used.

Crossing the valley all the way, outside the military camp in front, you can already see a long line of people.

On the flags, the words [Xiaoqiwei Duan], [Kaiguo Changguogong Duan], and [Shangzhuguo Duan] are clearly visible.

Duan Chun rode his horse all the way to the front gate of the military camp.

Wherever he passed along the way, all the soldiers saluted with one arm.

To express the respect of the soldiers to him, the major general.

Duan Chun also clasped his fists in return.

Until I saw Xu Yong, wearing a bright armor, sitting on the back of a warhorse outside the military camp.

He was waiting for the arrival of the general with his guards.

"Deputy Commander Xu, I, Duan Chun, greet you."

"Excuse me, where is the general now?"

Duan Chun jumped off the horse and asked respectfully with a fist.

"Major General, the general is discussing the last few things with Military Advisor Gan."

"You came at the right time."

Xu Yong smiled.

Duan Chun glanced at the valley behind him. At this time, the long team had stretched to the other end of the valley.

The number of infantry may have exceeded 20,000 or 30,000!

In the military camp, the dense cavalry teams have lined up and are ready to set off at any time.

The number of cavalry teams is also close to tens of thousands!

You know, the cavalry in ancient times was definitely the first type of soldiers.

A dynasty would have to consume astonishing national strength to form tens of thousands of cavalry.

And the Cavalry Guard can account for more than half of the more than 80,000 iron cavalry in the Dakang Empire.

It can be seen that His Majesty trusts my father.

Originally, the Cavalry Guard military camp outside the city had a maximum of more than 10,000 soldiers stationed.

These days, while my father was waiting for the supplies to be gathered, he was also waiting for the various forces to gather in the military camp and then set off.

Dongdongdong!

Woo woo woo!

A burst of drums and horns suddenly resounded through the sky.

Xu Wu raised his whip and his expression immediately became solemn.

"All the men in the camp, set off immediately!"

Xu Wu shouted, and his subordinates, the Lieutenants of the Lieutenants of the camps, issued neat military orders.

The densely packed infantry in the canyon officially set off to the front.

Then, the sound of horse hooves rang out from the camp.

The Cavalry Guards also officially set off.

Duan Chun rode on his horse, looking at the army passing by him in an endless stream in surprise.

This time, he felt that he had done one thing right.

That was to give advice to His Majesty on the Western Expedition, besiege the Western Rong Kingdom, and avoid too many casualties of soldiers.

As the cavalry continued to rush out of the camp.

Until more than ten minutes passed.

A team of cavalry wearing fish scale armor rushed out of the gate.

Then General Duan and a group of generals also came to the gate.

"Greetings, General!"

Everyone saluted and shouted.

"No need to be polite."

"Chun'er, Dad won't be back for another half a year."

"You're grown up now, you have to look after the house and farm for Dad."

"Protect your mother and little sister."

"Don't cause trouble again!"

Duan Ning stared at his son and said sternly.
