"Thank you, thank you for always thinking about me and Mu Guo." Mu Lianlong suddenly choked up and his voice became hoarse.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Xia Ziying asked uneasily while lying in his arms.
"It's okay, I'm just too touched. There are too few women who can treat me sincerely now. They just married themselves in and tried their best to win favor. They have never brought benefits to the people of the world, and you are the first one.
A concubine who makes me feel trust from the bottom of my heart." As he spoke, the strength in his arms increased a little, and he deeply saw Xia Ziying hugging him in his arms, and pressed his cheek deeply against Xia Ziying's forehead.
, feeling the warmth between each other.
"Your Majesty, it's windy outside. Let's go in. When we get to the front line tomorrow, we will need you to come and direct the operations. It will be terrible if you get cold." After saying that, he pushed Mu Liaolong over, and then opened the curtain.
Long looked at her and smiled, then walked in.
The night was already deep, and the only sound outside was the sound of simple marching footsteps, occasionally disturbed by the unevenness of the ground. By the time of the third watch, they had fallen asleep completely. When they woke up,
They had already arrived at the border. The people outside did not disturb them, but stood outside waiting for the emperor to wake up.
It gradually became brighter outside, and the morning sun shone in gently, reflecting little spots of light on their bodies. Mu Lianlong suddenly woke up with a startle, and then realized that Long Nian had already
It had stopped, and Xia Ziying woke up, only to realize that it was already broad daylight.
People outside felt that the emperor and the imperial concubine had woken up, and shouted loudly from outside: "I congratulate you on seeing the emperor."
Hearing this shout, Xia Ziying already understood. She had already arrived at the border. Seeing that they were still sleeping soundly, she did not disturb them. She waited until now to pay homage. It seems that these so-called generals are not all rough.
The man has some brains in this regard.
Mu Lunlong walked out gently. The eunuch on one side opened the curtain. Mu Lunlong looked at the generals and soldiers kneeling below. The leader was naturally the congratulator sent by him, and there were several generals and guards beside him.
The city's senior general, Xia Ziying, followed closely behind and got off the dragon chariot. The servants on the side immediately helped him over.
"All Ping Sheng, I've been really giving you a hard time these days. I'm not here to play at the border this time, and I'm not here to supervise the battle. What's more, I want to work with you to eliminate all the enemies of the future, so all the ceremonies are simple and there is no need to hold a banquet.
Now everyone has dispersed and returned to their posts. Stick to their posts and report to me as soon as possible if there is any situation. You are derelict in your duties without authorization and are engaged in military law. Do you understand?" Mu Lianlong said slightly angrily.
, made everyone's nerves tense. They really didn't expect that the emperor would act so resolutely when he came. They casually agreed in unison, and then they all dispersed and returned to their posts.
Jing He led Mu Lianlong towards the tent. Xia Ziying had no intention of going, but Mu Lianlong took one look and said in a low voice: "Come with me to see the battle situation!" So Xia Ziying had no choice but to hold on.
Scalp followed, and Jing He did not expect that the emperor would bring Xia Ziying to the main tent. He immediately looked sideways and turned his head casually.
When they arrived at the main tent, Mu Lianlong sat on the general's seat, while Xia Ziying stood aside. Mu Lianlong looked at the map in front of him and asked: "How was Duoqi killed last time? Details
tell me the story."
Although Jing He made it clear in his letter last time that Duo Qi is a brave man who is good at being provoked by others. Jing He was ordered to come to help in the battle. Seeing that the enemy is outnumbered, naturally we will not attack easily, but
Sun Sheng sent people to provoke him again and again. Duoqi wanted to go out to challenge many times, but was stopped by congratulations. Suddenly one day, Sun Sheng sent someone to bring a woman's dress and gave it to Duoqi.
Wear, this time, Duoqi couldn't hold it in any longer. He smashed the table with one palm and chopped his clothes to pieces with his sword. He angrily led his soldiers out of the city to fight. He couldn't stop him anymore.
After catching him, he followed you out. Beware of an explosion, so he led others to assist him. Sure enough, the enemy troops who came to provoke him were beaten and fled within a few blows, but they ran away.
Fighting, he led Duoqi to Baima Ridge, but he was ambushed and suffered numerous casualties. Xin himself was behind to help, so he was not killed together, otherwise he would be shrouded in horse leather. When it comes to this, congratulations
There were beads of sweat on his face, and it seemed that he still cared a lot about what happened at that time.
After finishing speaking, Mu Lianlong didn't say anything, but looked at him, motioned for him to sit down, and then asked the eunuch on the side to bring tea. The eunuch then went out. It seemed that he congratulated him for the Battle of Baimaling at that time.
It is indeed a lingering fear!
"Congratulations, General. Don't worry too much. As the saying goes, victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists. We just need to take a long-term view, sum up our experience, and prepare for the next battle." Mu Lianlong said seriously.
"What the emperor said is that indeed, victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. Moreover, with the emperor personally commanding you this time, you will definitely be invincible." After congratulating him, he began to praise Mu Lianlong. Mu Lianlong waved his hand and smiled.
Then he said: "I am also a veteran of leading troops in wars. Although I have experienced so many wars, this is the first time I have competed with a master like Sun Sheng. The victory or defeat is not yet known. I don't know how to congratulate the general on the opponent these days.
How much do you know? You might as well listen." Mu Lianlong suddenly asked in a probing tone, looking towards Jing He.
After a pause of congratulations, he walked to the table, looked at the map in front of him, pointed at the terrain above and said to Mu Lianlong, "Your Majesty, please see, the opponent has quite an advantage this time, let go
Not to mention the strength advantage, they have clearly taken advantage of the terrain. The Baima Ridge is a swooping terrain, and they have attacked several times this time. The weapons of attack have changed every time. Fortunately, our city wall
It is strong enough to withstand their many attacks, but if they continue to attack, I am worried that it will be difficult to resist."
After listening to the congratulations, Mu Lianlong asked curiously, "What do you mean they are good at changing their offensive weapons? Is Sun Sheng also an expert in making weapons?"
He nodded in congratulations, "Your Majesty, you are right. He is indeed an out-and-out weapons expert. There was originally a book on weapons research in our farmhouse. It was researched by our ancestor with great pains. It contains a lot of incredible information.
The process of making weapons. Unfortunately, the book was taken away by unfilial descendants of the family, and its whereabouts are still unknown. Military strategists have indeed been studying the art of war and weapons. Like us, they all believe that if they want to win the war, the most lethal weapon is
Necessary conditions, no matter how good the strategy is without the cooperation of weapons, it will always lose a lot of power, and it will be difficult to achieve the highest idealization." After congratulations said so much, Xia Ziying and Mu Lianlong were stunned.
For a moment, it turned out that the soldiers and farmers were not only highly accomplished in the art of war, but also extremely skilled in weapons. It seemed that this battle was much more difficult than he thought. When he thought of this, Mu Lianlong's face showed
There was a cloud of worry, and I was thinking alone with my chin propped up.
"So what are their weapons like so far? Is there any big progress?" Mu Lianlong asked after thinking for a long time.
The congratulations seemed to be recalling, "Weapons are not created overnight. For the time being, there have been no major changes. It's just that small artillery has begun to be erected on their siege ladders, and they have become one by one.
Mobile fire attack points, such ladders are by far the most troublesome. Last time, they have built five such ladder artillery. They can be used as mobile fire attacks during war. The ladders are used for sieges, so they are very useful.
Fortunately, this kind of ladder is more difficult to manufacture, and there will not be too many artillery ladders built at a time."
Mu Lianlong never expected that Sun Sheng could combine the ladder with the artillery. It was really unexpected. He glanced at the map on the table and said to congratulate: "Come on, let's go to the city wall."
have a look."
Xia Ziying was still following behind. Mu Lianlong suddenly turned around, looked at her and said, "If you are sleepy, you don't have to go. Just go back and rest first. It's enough for me to be here."
Xia Ziying smiled slightly, "This is my first time to go on an expedition, and I also want to see the fighting on the border. Your Majesty, please don't let me go back, just let me take a look!"
Seeing that Xia Ziying was so determined, Mu Lianlong no longer stopped him and nodded: "Okay, just in time, after the discussion is over, you can give General Jinghe a talk and try to figure out what he has learned from his heart, so that he can also understand why Sun Sheng is doing this.
He's very scheming." After saying that, he took the lead and walked outside.
When Jing He heard what Mu Lianlong said, he turned around and glanced secretly at the imperial concubine in front of him. He didn't expect that the emperor had brought a concubine here to participate in this war. I originally thought that the emperor was purely trying to please the concubine.
Coming out to relax, now it seems that it is indeed unusual, this woman is really not simple.
When he came to the city wall, he looked around and saw that in the distance was Baima Ridge. Thinking about the miserably defeated there, Mu Lianlong felt a little angry. He thought about how he had never failed in his military career.
