To everyone's surprise, even Liang Xi did not expect that Li Qing would be so calm and indifferent when facing Han Jiangxue this time.

Nothing that had been imagined in advance happened. Li Qing's attitude towards Han Jiangxue was just like a normal monarch towards the wife of a prince. He did not ignore her but did not give any special treatment. When it was necessary to pay attention, it was also that

He had a very normal expression, as if he had given up everything, and really no longer thought about anything else, he just regarded Han Jiangxue as the most ordinary Princess Mo.

Not only did his attitude towards Han Jiangxue change greatly, but Li Qing also seemed to be a different person towards Mo Li.

There was no longer the tit-for-tat confrontation in the past, whether it was true or false, there were smiles of encouragement and approval on their faces, and they even took the initiative to express their gratitude to Mo Li for raising military rations at his own expense, and for the court's loyalty to Prince Mo's palace in serving the country.

affirmation and praise.

For a moment, it was as if Li Qing and Mo Li had never had any disputes. The unprecedented harmony was truly unexpected.

As for Han Jiangxue's expedition with the army, Li Qing did not express any opinions or different voices, and did not even mention it at all, as if Mo Li's arrangement was extremely normal.

After giving a symbolic speech to the three armies, drinking water and wine together, and wishing the troops and horses led by Mo Li a victory this time, Li Qing did not waste any more time. He stood on the high city wall and watched the Qing suppression army gradually leaving the city.

Far.

In this purge, Mo Li led a total of only ten thousand soldiers and horses. Of course, this does not mean that ten thousand people are the total number of all the purge armies. Various numbers of troops were stationed in various riot areas in the Dongming Dynasty.

When arriving at a place, the local garrison will naturally be included in the large-scale suppression army led by Mo Li. At the same time, all local armed forces that can be mobilized can also be temporarily deployed.

In a sense, Mo Li's expedition is a process that changes constantly as the war situation changes, and it is an extremely long process. Unless the Holy Will is recalled, otherwise, generally speaking, the entire Dongming Jue must be

After the rebel forces that affected the country were dealt with in most places, the war of suppression was considered to be an end recognized by the imperial court.

Of course, these are all things for later. At least for Mo Li, it was impossible to really tie himself to that position.

The first destination of the army led by Mo Li was nowhere else but the place where the Dongming rebels were most powerful - Muzhou!

Today, nearly half of the counties and towns in Muzhou are controlled by the rebel army, and the rebel army has become the leader of the rebel army in the entire Dongming Dynasty. Although the imperial court was the first to dispatch garrison troops to suppress the Qing Dynasty, more than a year has passed.

The results were minimal, and at most they were able to force the rebels to stop on their original territory.

Recently, the rebel army has been taking advantage of the situation to expand, so of course the first battle to suppress the army is to target Muzhou. Whether it is from the perspective of macro-war needs or the need to intimidate, such a decision is inevitable.

However, compared to the generals and staff in the Qing suppression army, the main reason why Mo Li chose Muzhou as his first stop was that the rebel army in Muzhou was almost an out-and-out bandit.

Smashing, looting, burning, oppressing the people, and doing evil has harmed countless ordinary people who were already in dire straits.

Therefore, even if the rebel army in Muzhou is the largest and most powerful, Mo Li will never be able to secretly recruit them. Instead, he will directly use the help of the suppression army to eliminate this evil bandit scourge.

Anyway, as a coach, he still has to make some achievements, otherwise how can he convince the public? As for how to deal with the rebel armies in other places after taking Muzhou, Mo Li already has the clearest ideas and arrangements.

He will definitely gain a lot from this trip. I hope that by then, Li Qingmo, who deliberately set up such a trap for him to fall into, will regret it too much!

Along the way, Han Jiangxue had already figured out Mo Li's plan. With the help of some information related to the Muzhou rebellion that she had obtained from Mo Li in advance, she also thought about it from time to time to see what she would do next.

Can she play a small role in the battle, so that some people will not always think that she is eating and drinking from someone else?

Han Jiangxue knew very well that several major generals in the army had great opinions on her, a princess who accompanied the army. Although she did not dare to say anything in front of Mo Li, the disdain for her in her heart was still there.

It's obvious.

In the eyes of these so-called grown men, a woman like her, even if she is a princess, is nothing more than a burden that plays no role in the army. She also greatly affects military regulations and discipline, and disrupts the morale of many soldiers.

If not for the slightest objection from Li Qing this time, these generals would have criticized Mo Li for taking her with the army.

Therefore, Han Jiangxue made up her mind from the very beginning. This expedition must show those so-called powerful men who despise women from the bottom of their hearts how absurd and ridiculous their so-called discrimination is.

The army was large in number, but it did not affect the marching speed. Half a month later, the clearing army took the Zhongzheng route, and the road was smooth and clear, and it had entered the border of Muzhou.

The leader of the Muzhou rebel army, whose surname was Jiang, was known as Jiang Dazi. He was originally the biggest bandit here. Taking advantage of the rising chaos in the Dongming Dynasty, he directly annexed more than a dozen bandit dens, large and small, in the vicinity, and then forcibly robbed many of them.

Few people joined him, and he followed suit and formed his own team.

This group of people was already rampant, and beside Jiang Mazi there was a former down-and-out scholar who served as a military advisor. With their viciousness and desperate momentum, they not only gradually consolidated their power, but also occupied less than half of the country in one fell swoop.

Taking Muzhou as his own territory, he not only seized the territory that was now under his control, but also was able to send troops to attack other places in Muzhou from time to time after a large number of troops from the imperial court came to suppress it.

This man's reputation in Muzhou was extremely bad, but in these troubled times, not many people had the energy to care about the lives of the people.

Even the troops that have been stationed in Muzhou for a long time are just following an order from the court. There are really not many people who really think about the people.

In this regard, Han Jiangxue always felt that Mo Li's broad-mindedness impressed her. Although Mo Li never said anything and could not take care of every innocent person, judging from the kindness and righteousness deep in his heart, Mo Li

Valuing ordinary people is not just to gain a good reputation, but an instinct from the heart.

After the army entered the border of Muzhou, they did not stop, but went directly to Qingyang, where the imperial army is currently stationed.

The largest commander in the Qingyang garrison is named He. He is a forty-year-old ordinary deputy general. He has commanded 2,000 troops and has been stationed in Qingyang for more than half a year.

In the past half year, Vice General He has not made any achievements that can be put on the table. On the contrary, he has allowed the rebel army led by Jiang Dazi to expand from a thousand people to the current three or four thousand people. Compared with the imperial court,

The number of garrison troops will be doubled.

If it weren't for the fact that most of those people had not received any special training and their combat effectiveness had been greatly weakened, they might have been killed by Wang Mazi in one fell swoop!

When they were approaching Qingyang's station, Mo Li ordered the army to stop.

There are so many of them, even if the Qingyang garrison has received the news in advance, the original military camp cannot accommodate so many people at once.

In return, Vice General He had already selected a place near the original military camp as a place for the suppression army to camp, but Mo Li believed that the place was not suitable for the large-scale resettlement of such a large number of people.

Therefore, after discussing with other generals in the army, Mo Li ordered his people to set up camp in a place he had re-selected suitable for rest and rest, while he took several generals and dozens of table tennis players to Qingyang first.

Garrisoned in the military camp, let's first understand the specific actual situation here.

Naturally, Han Jiangxue also went with him. Although the generals who followed had some objections in their hearts and their faces were not very good-looking, they were afraid of Mo Li, but no one said anything.

The group set off lightly and soon arrived at the garrison barracks.

Hearing that Mo Li had already led his people to the gate of the military camp, Vice General He received the notification and hurriedly led his people to greet him outside the camp.

"The last general, He Erhu, is here to see King Mo!" Vice General He knelt down on one knee as soon as he left the camp. While saluting, he directly told the reason why he did not come early to greet him: "Your Majesty, the last general just captured a few people today.

A more important person from the rebel army is being interrogated in person, hoping to get some valuable information, so I didn't know that the prince has arrived, so I apologize for waiting so little!"

"No need to be polite, get up!" Mo Li didn't say much. He raised his hand and threw out a few words, signaling He Erhu and other soldiers to get up.

When everyone saw this, they stood up together.

"Please enter the camp, Your Majesty!" Vice General He quickly made an invitation gesture. As he was speaking, he saw Han Jiangxue, who was wearing a fluttering white dress next to Mo Li. His expression changed for a moment.

"Your Majesty, please be patient. Please forgive me for being bold. The princess cannot follow the Prince into the military camp!"

Vice General He stopped everyone immediately. He didn't know whether it was because he was born with a simple mind or for some other reason. He didn't even think about it, and directly refused to allow Han Jiangxue to enter the military camp in front of everyone.

"Why?" Mo Li looked at Han Jiangxue, who was frowning slightly, and then asked Vice General He: "Since you know that she is my princess, you also know that the emperor has given permission for her to go with the army this time.

, you are a small lieutenant, what qualifications do you have to stop her from entering the military camp?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.
