Chapter 286 There are many opportunities on the road
Jun Ci had been preparing for this battle for a long time. After getting the Commander's Seal and the Holy Oracle, she almost immediately ordered her troops to set off.
In the entire Central Guard Army, she only left the new recruits and some mediocre people behind to take care of the army's fields.
Yuan You was at the gate of the city, escorted her out of the city in person, and handed her a sword: "This is the sword of our ancestors, forged by secret methods, and will last for hundreds of years. I hope that wherever your sword goes, it will be stable."
Jun Ci solemnly took it with both hands: "Your Majesty, I will return in triumph."
Yuan You smiled, and his increasingly pale face was handsome and gentle. He raised his hand to call the chamberlain who was holding the wine forward, and picked up a glass first: "I salute you and the Central Guards, and wish you all victory and the prestige of our country.
"
Jun Ci picked up another cup, drank it with Yuan You, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
Putting down the wine glass, Yuan You had already moved aside, and Jun Ci made eye contact with Jun Xi behind him.
Jun Xi took a step forward, but Jun Ci took a step back, bowed silently, turned around and strode away.
"Aci!"
Jun Xu shouted loudly behind her, but Jun Ci didn't stop for a moment. She got on her horse, took the lead, and left with the army in a mighty manner.
The flying dust seemed to have blinded the eyes of the majestic and heroic general, making his eyes red.
Ten miles out of the capital, Jun Ci saw Zhang Cheng who had been waiting here for a long time. She got off her horse and walked away quickly.
Qin Xiao raised his hand and stopped the army.
"Ah Ci, this is the peace talisman I asked for for my brother." Zhang Cheng handed over a sachet. The sachet was very light and contained only one talisman paper.
Jun Ci is held in her hand, but she feels that it is extra heavy because it carries all her brother's blessings to her.
"I also have something to give to my cousin and uncle." Jun Ci took two boxes from Yun Ruyi's hand. He handed one box to Zhang Cheng first, and she touched the second box for a while before handing it over. "Thank you."
Brother, please pass it on to Aye for me."
Zhang Cheng had not had time to open the gift that Jun Ci had prepared for him. Hearing this, he looked at Jun Ci and sighed helplessly.
Close relatives, flesh and blood, obviously care about each other, but they have to start to distance themselves.
"A Ci, come back early." Zhang Cheng also accepted the box handed over to him, "When the peach blossoms are in full bloom, we must not break the appointment to make wine."
"must."
The peach blossoms in the north bloom late, at the end of March, and there are still two months left. Two months is enough.
The first time she drank secretly was when she drank peach blossom wine at her uncle's house. Her tired cousin was beaten hard by her uncle. Not only did her cousin not take it to heart, but because her uncle and others controlled the peach blossom wine, they even took it secretly.
She brews it herself.
In the first two years, they wasted a lot of good wine, but then they slowly figured out the right way and agreed to brew a jar every year and bury it under the peach tree at their uncle's house. When they grow old, they will dig it out and drink it together.
Even in those years in Mobei, Jun Ci would always run back at the right time, drink wine and then go back.
This burial lasted for ten years, and this year is the tenth year.
She will not break the promise, nor can she break the promise.
Zhang Cheng watched Jun Ci go away. He didn't open Jun Ci's box until the figure completely disappeared from the corner of his eyes.
There were actually two wood carvings inside, a father with a twirled beard, and himself holding a book with his hands behind his back. They were so lifelike that they could be recognized at a glance, and he couldn't put them down.
He sent Jun Xu's to the General's Mansion, and when Jun Xu opened it, there was a family of three inside.
The banyan tree is like a canopy, and beneath it sit Zhang holding a fan, Jun Xi holding a knife and wielding it, and a small group of little A Ci posing in the same posture as Jun Xi.
When Jun Yu saw it, his eyes hurt, and he couldn't stop the tears, which immediately rolled down his face.
Jun Ci didn't know all this. She had already left the capital's territory and arrived at the first camp place in a well-behaved manner. She didn't ask anyone to prepare food, but assigned Wu Zheng to lead people to hunt.
At this moment, although the prey is not fat, it is plentiful, so some people who know the wild vegetables are sent to pick them.
"After the whole army rests at night, you continue to advance. I will rush to Hedong County alone." Jun Ci called Huo Qingqu, Liucheng, and Qin Xiao to his side.
"General, I will follow you at last." Qin Xiao said.
There are so many of them that there will be no danger on the road. Following the army would really delay the journey.
"No." Jun Ci refused, "There are many Zhou Rong minions in the places we pass along the way, and they will definitely pay attention to your every move. If you go with me, you may be exposed in advance, and Zhou Guang will also get the news.
.”
It is true that these people have never met Qin Xiao and Jun Ci, but some people are particularly smart. Qin Xiao's identity can be determined by just talking to them for a few words.
But she is different, not many people know her well, and she is the commander of an army, so she can just ignore these people and get past them. There are indeed tricky people, and it just so happens that Liucheng and Qin Xiao can deal with them.
"Lord, I will follow you," Huo Qing said.
He is not taken seriously as a military advisor, and whether he is accompanying the army or not will not have any impact.
Jun Ci still refused: "You will drag me down."
Huo Qingqu:......
The drag that Jun Ci said was either causing trouble for her, or because of Jun Ci's strong body, her one-day schedule could be twice that of Huo Qingqu's.
Qin Xiao and Huo Qingqu looked at each other and lowered their heads in frustration.
Seeing this, Jun Ci said again: "There are so many opportunities along the way, how can you let them go?"
"The general said..." Qin Xiao suddenly raised his head, his eyes flickering. Did he mean what he thought?
"Don't delay the army's journey," Jun Ci said cryptically.
They can't reach Jun Ci's speed, but they can catch up after being separated from the army for a day and a half and then galloping. As long as there are people there every time they enter and leave the city.
Now Huo Qingqu and Qin Xiao became more energetic. They immediately went to find the map and asked Xiao Liu to help them investigate. They must find out as many bandit nests as possible along the way so that they can collect money along the way.
...No, it is to uphold justice, quell chaos and suppress bandits.
Even Wu Zheng, Zhao Chun and others who came back from hunting and gathering wild vegetables were extremely excited and gearing up after knowing that they could deliver justice again.
It wasn't until they woke up early the next morning that Jun Ci had left the team and Chen Xiao stayed, but they were discouraged when Jun Ci took Lan An away.
After all, I just don’t want to take them with me.
He is jealous of Lan An in his heart, and this jealousy must be quelled by killing a few more gangs of bandits!
Jun Ci brought Lan An with him because he was cautious enough about his opponent Zhou Guang.
Second, she wanted Lan An to familiarize himself with the battlefield in advance so that he could find a good position. Whether it was to take the enemy by surprise or deal with Zhou Guang, she had a skill left in reserve.
Lan An is young and strong. Since he followed Jun Ci, Jun Ci specially found a training method for him, which focused on riding and shooting, supplemented by speed.
From the capital to Hedong County, Junci spent three days and two nights traveling day and night. The Southern Dynasty army did not continue to break the city, but the entire Hedong County was still full of soldiers. Everyone looked frightened, and many people fled north.
