Half a month later, news came from the border that Bai Qingmeng led his troops to the northern border. Since then, the news from the north has gotten better, and the pace of retreat has finally slowed down.
Yun Jingchu spent nearly a month on the road before reaching the northern border.
The three generals of the Yuwen family, Yuwennan, Yuwenxi, Yuwenbei, Anguo Hou Gongsun Sheng, and Ningguogong's third son Bai Qingmeng came out to greet Yun Jingchu at the same time.
Yun Jingchu was dressed in military uniform and riding on a war horse. Looking at the five majestic generals with different styles in front of him, his momentum did not show any weakness at all.
"I respectfully welcome the Queen. Because I am wearing armor, I cannot perform a full salute. I hope you will forgive me." Everyone bent down and clasped their fists in salute.
"You don't have to be polite. From now on, please forget about my status as queen and just call me marshal." Yun Jingchu said calmly with a cold expression.
"Yes, I will obey your Majesty... No, the order of the Marshal." Everyone responded somewhat unevenly.
"Marshal, your room is ready. Please come down with me." Yu Wennan stepped forward and bowed in invitation.
Now, the place where the Yuan Dynasty team is stationed is called Taiyu City. Because of Bai Qingmeng's place, they defended this place and did not retreat again.
In the center of Taiyu City, the former magistrate's office was used as a temporary meeting place for the army. The backyard of the magistrate was where Yu Wennan arranged accommodation for Yun Jingchu.
As for other high-ranking generals, they live in the front yard so that they can discuss military situations at any time.
Upon arriving at the magistrate's office, Yun Jingchu did not go to rest immediately, nor was he in a hurry to eat or wash up. Instead, he asked Yu Wennan to call all high-level and high-level generals for a meeting.
Yamen Hall.
Yun Jingchu sat in the main seat, looked at the generals sitting or standing on both sides, and said: "General Yuwen, tell me about the current situation."
Yu Wennan took a step forward, with a calm expression on his face, and spoke gently: "Marshal Qi, the Jin Kingdom and the Huns are almost out in force, with a total of 500,000 troops assembled. All of them have strong soldiers and horses, and are not afraid of death. Moreover, they
With fur coats to protect us from the cold, we are really unable to resist. Unfortunately, nearly 20,000 soldiers have been sacrificed and eight cities have been lost."
Yun Jingchu's face darkened, and he said coldly: "General Yuwen, you are shirking your responsibility! You are responsible for guarding the northern border. You don't know how to be prepared for danger in times of peace, and you were caught off guard by the enemy. That's fine, you are constantly on the battlefield.
The defeat, in just one month, we lost eight cities in a row, putting the people of Dayuan in dire straits, do you know your guilt?"
As soon as Yun Jingchu said this, Yu Wenxi quit his job. He patted the handrail and stood up. He raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "Marshal, you are wrong to say that. My Yuwen family guards the most difficult northern border and has never dared to do so.
Lazy, you have made so much contribution to Dayuan. Now that you are here and your buttocks are not yet hot, you want to ask us about our sins. How can this be true?! It doesn’t hurt to stand and talk. Who doesn’t know the north and northwest?
The armies of the Jin Kingdom and the Xiongnu are so brave that few other countries can match them. The north is the most difficult and dangerous place. Now that you are raising an army to accuse us, my subordinates feel that you are taking advantage of the situation."
Yun Jingchu's eyes turned even colder, and his voice sounded like ice shards in his mouth: "General Yuwen, please show some respect to me. I didn't ask you anything, so don't interrupt."
"Huh! I'm just telling the truth. Does the marshal want to use his status to oppress others?" Yu Wenxi said loudly with a gloomy face.
