After a while, Shen Wan heard the sound of rain getting louder than usual, and said, "I don't know when the rain will stop?"
Xuanyuan Liuyun frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's going to be night."
His original plan was to hurry up and reach the northern border within ten days, but because of the heavy rain, he was afraid that he would be delayed for a day.
After the tent was set up, Shen Wan and the others got off the carriage and entered the tent.
Because the ground was wet, the tent was also very damp.
Shen Wan decided to sleep in the carriage with her son at night. The rain didn't stop until it was completely dark. In the evening, Shen Wan and the others made soup noodles in the tent. They put diced chicken flavored chili oil in the bowl. The taste was nothing to mention. It was so fragrant that the young prince even had two bowls of noodle soup with them.
Because four people could not sleep in the carriage, Shen Wan and the boy slept in the carriage, while Hui'er and Qiu Ju slept in the tent.
Four days later, Qiao Mu came back with five hundred elites. Song Heng in the study saw Qiao Mu walking in with his head lowered, and he understood.
He closed the military book and said, "It's okay."
Qiao Mu raised his head and said: "We have seen Zi Ling, but there are too many barbarians, about two thousand people..." Song Heng stood up and walked to the window, turned his back to Qiao Mu and said with red eyes: "Maybe this is me The fate of father and son!"
"General..." Qiao Mu wanted to say something to comfort the general, but found that he could not find any suitable words to comfort the general.
"You are tired from this trip, go back and rest first!"
He seemed to be alone for a while.
"Yes," Qiao Mu bowed his hands and retreated.
As soon as he walked out of the study, he bumped into General Yu.
"General Yu," he said with a bow.
General Yu nodded and asked, "Where is the general?"
Qiao Mu said: "It's in the study room!
But something happened?"
He asked.
General Yu frowned and said, "I just received news from the spies that the Northern Territory has sent another hundred thousand troops for reinforcements."
"Sent another hundred thousand?"
Qiao Mu also frowned.
They currently have less than 200,000 soldiers and horses, and the barbarians have about more than 200,000. If they add 100,000 troops, wouldn't they have an army of more than 300,000?
It seemed that they wanted to have a big fight and marched straight into the northern border towns in one fell swoop.
General Yu nodded: "According to reports from spies, their reinforcements have already set off. If I don't tell you, I have to report to the general."
After saying that, Yu Shenjiang walked towards the study.
Not long after they learned that the Northern Territory had sent more troops to the border, Song Heng and the others received news from the Imperial City that Cavalry General Xuanyuan Liuyun had led one hundred thousand cavalry to the Northern Territory.
All the generals in the northern border looked at General Song after listening to the messenger.
They did not ask for support from the emperor, but the emperor sent Prince Yun to lead 100,000 reinforcements. This amount of information was a bit large.
Song Heng also knew full well that after the emperor sent Prince Yun to lead troops to the north after Ziling was captured by the barbarians, he was probably still afraid that he would make the wrong decision.
Song Heng had someone clean up a room in the general's mansion and come out. In a few days, Prince Yun might be arriving in the north.
October 15th, Northern Territory Camp.
Song Ziling was pushed into the camp, and the armor-clad Northern Territory soldiers in the camp stared at him fiercely.
Among these Northern Territory soldiers, some had brothers who died in the hands of Song Heng, and some whose fathers died in the hands of Song Heng in the war a few years ago.
They regarded Song Heng as their enemy, and now that they saw his son, they naturally wanted to kill his son to avenge their brother/father.
Someone picked up a stone and threw it at Song Ziling. Song Ziling was a martial arts practitioner and quickly noticed it. He turned his head to avoid the stone thrown at him, and turned his head to look at the person who was coming towards him with contempt.
A glance at the stone thrower.
Manzi is really despicable. Not only does he like to take hostages and threaten people, but he also likes to sneak attack from behind.
