Wu Meiniang was very pleased that Gao Kan was so sure that Fang Jun would not abandon the territory of the Western Regions and return to Beijing to help him. Only a hero in this world could have such loyal support from like-minded subordinates. This is a fan that no amount of money and power can buy.
She casually replied to Gao Kan with a bright smile: "What if the Dashi army can no longer threaten the safety of the Western Region?"
Everyone present was stunned.
Gao Kan subconsciously wanted to argue that 200,000 Dashi troops entered the Western Region and attacked cities and villages along the way. The Anxi army led by Xue Rengui retreated step by step. Although there were also counterattacks during the period, they caused great damage to the Dashi army.
, but it is a fact that we have lost our teachers and lost our ground.
The half of the Youtun Guards led by Fang Jun were able to defeat tens of thousands of Tuyuhunjing cavalry in the Great Battle. In addition to their strong combat power, it was mainly because of their geographical advantage. In the Western Regions, there was almost nothing to rely on in the vast wasteland.
As a matter of fact, the two armies seldom take advantage of the right time and place when fighting, and can only fight to the death with real swords and guns.
Under such circumstances, being able to ensure that Gongyue City is not lost is already beyond everyone's expectations. If defeat is turned into victory again...
How can it be?
However, the words of rebuttal were not spoken. He looked at Wu Meiniang's bright and gorgeous smile, felt her unreserved trust in Fang Jun, and suddenly felt that nothing was impossible.
Tuyuhun invaded Hexi, and the government and the public were in mourning. They all thought that Hexi was about to fall, and no one dared to lead the army there. Chai Zhewei and other honorable men who held military power were even more afraid of the enemy and cowardly fought. They did not hesitate to pretend to be sick and shirked their responsibilities, and their reputation was ruined.
.
However, Fang Jun resolutely led half of the Youtun Guards to the expedition. At that time, there were admirers and mockers from both the government and the public, and most of them were just gloating over his misfortune, thinking that Fang Jun would definitely be defeated in Hexi...
However, a great victory in the battle against the valley shocked the court, and then Alagou "drove the tiger and swallowed the wolf" became brilliant!
At that time, who thought Fang Jun could win one game after another?
Since Hexi can be victorious and Alagou can be victorious, why can’t the Western Regions be victorious?!
Gao Kan can be regarded as following Fang Jun step by step until now, and has witnessed many magical beginnings of Fang Jun. It can be said that since Fang Jun took the lead, he has never experienced a defeat, and has returned with a big victory every time!
…
Taking a deep breath, Gao Kan nodded heavily and said in a deep voice: "Mrs. Wu, please rest assured that the general will send troops to control the Zhongwei Bridge. We must ensure the smooth flow of the Zhongwei Bridge at all times and wait for the commander-in-chief to return with his troops.
In addition, scouts will also be sent along the way to Hexi to search for news about the commander-in-chief and respond to him."
Wu Meiniang shook her head, her slender figure stood in front of the map, but she gave everyone the aura of pointing out the country and scolding Fang Qiu: "Although Langjun's use of troops cannot be called 'superb', it is still like an antelope hanging its horns."
, there is no trace to be found. There is another disadvantage of bringing troops back to Chang'an, that is, once the news is learned by the Guanlong rebels, the situation will inevitably change suddenly, and they will inevitably increase their offensive and storm the imperial city at all costs. At the moment, the imperial city looks like
It is impregnable, but the Sixth Army of the East Palace is already exhausted, and the slightest mistake will lead to the fall of the imperial city. Therefore, if Langjun really leads the troops back, he must strictly block the news, and no outsiders will know about it until the moment the troops approach Chang'an City.
."
She pointed to the mountains northwest of Chang'an and west of the Jing River on the map, and said in a clear voice: "In the Ziwu Mountains, there is a straight road built by the former Qin Shihuang Emperor, which can allow the army to pass quickly. Although there are countless checkpoints and fortresses built along the way, they cannot block it.
There are tens of thousands of cavalry rushing all the way. Therefore, if Langjun returns to Beijing, he will definitely take this road."
Gao Kan thought about it for a while, then suddenly something clicked in his mind. He clasped his hands and exclaimed: "That's why there was news about the Hanhai Protectorate asking for help. It was all a rumor spread by the commander in order to provide cover for the sneaking army! Maybe the commander is already here at this moment.
He led his army from Liangzhou toward Huaiyuan County in the northeast, but at a certain point they suddenly crossed the Yellow River, plunged straight into the Longshan Mountains, and rushed all the way along the Ziwu Ridge to attack Chang'an!"
In this way, those puzzling messages have perfect explanations. Everything is an illusion, and they are all smoke released by Fang Jun to cover up his whereabouts!
Even the news about Chang'an that came from the counties in Hexi was deliberately done by the commander-in-chief. In order to deceive Changsun Wuji, he waited until the army arrived at Chang'an City, so that he had no time to react. He quickly cut the mess and decided the outcome in one battle!
Gao Kan's whole body became excited.
Wu Meiniang smiled slightly and said softly: "If what we expected is correct, this is the fact. Therefore, please send someone to search the Xiaoguan area along the Jingshui River. Maybe you can meet Lang Jun and lead his army back."
And within the camp, we must be prepared to respond. After all, this journey of thousands of miles is arduous and arduous, traveling through mountains and rivers. No matter how capable the iron army is, it will be exhausted. If it cannot take a good rest, its combat effectiveness will inevitably be affected."
"Here! Please, Your Highness, Madam Wu, don't worry, the general will definitely take care of you. If the commander doesn't come back, forget about it. If the commander does come back, he will get rest and supplies immediately!"
After saying goodbye, Gao Kan walked out excitedly, summoned his generals to make preparations, and sent people to conduct a strict search in the Xiaoguan area.
…
In the camp, Wu Meiniang blushed under the scorching gazes of Princess Gaoyang and Sister Silla. She subconsciously touched her cheek and wondered, "Is there something on my face?"
Princess Gao Yang stepped forward, stretched out her fingers to pick Wu Mei Niang's pointed chin, the movement was very light, and she even said loudly: "Awesome, Mei Niang! This kind of guidance will make even a handsome man ashamed.
"Many times, I have wondered whether you are an amazingly talented man disguised as a woman?"
She had long admired Wu Meiniang's intelligence, but after this crisis, she realized that even though she had looked up to Wu Meiniang in the past, she still underestimated her ability.
The phrase "a beautiful woman with beautiful breasts" is no longer enough to describe his quick thinking, he is simply a monster.
Fortunately, she was born as a girl and entered the imperial family. Otherwise, with her intelligence and talents, she would have caused a lot of troubles in the court...
Wu Meiniang smiled sweetly, and held Princess Gaoyang's slender waist with her backhand. Her voice was as sweet and charming as honey: "Your Highness, what you said is unjust. When we sleep with your husband together, you did not want me to wait for you...
…”
"Cough cough cough!"
The teasing Princess Gaoyang couldn't stand Wu Meiniang's teasing. She blushed and slapped her hand away, saying angrily: "Don't talk nonsense. Who asked you to... serve?"
Wu Meiniang raised her eyebrows and said in surprise: "Did I blame Your Highness by mistake? So I asked you to give it to you with my hands... Uh-huh."
In the middle of speaking, Princess Gaoyang's face was already red and her mouth was covered.
Princess Gaoyang stamped her feet and said shyly: "Are you crazy, this lady? You can talk about such things..."
When she realized that she had let slip, she quickly turned around and saw Jin Deman. The Jin Shengman sisters covered their mouths and snickered, looking like "that's it" and "so exciting", and they became even more embarrassed.
He pinched the soft flesh of Wu Meiniang's waist tightly and said coquettishly: "Don't say it again!"
"Oh, oh, your highness, please spare your life, this little girl doesn't dare anymore..."
Wu Meiniang's vital part was pinched and itched terribly. She struggled and gasped for mercy, but Princess Gaoyang refused to let go. The two girls laughed and made a fuss.
The Jin sisters also had smiles as bright as flowers.
Although they have encountered unprecedented dangers since they moved out of Chang'an City that night, it seems that as long as Wu Meiniang is there, they are confident that they can turn the danger into safety and turn the trouble into good fortune. No matter how dangerous the situation is, Wu Meiniang can still get rid of the cocoon.
It was resolved calmly with careful analysis and wise decision-making.
*****
Ziwu Ridge.
Snow is falling in the sky, the clouds are low, and the mountains are towering and towering, blocking out the sun. The endless heavy snow makes all the mountains look silvery white. Only the difference between light and dark between the high and low can be seen, and the rugged terrain with crisscrossing ravines can be seen.
Just between these lofty mountains, a road winds along the ridge into the distance, until it reaches the undulating skyline.
This is a straight road built during the Qin Dynasty, hidden in the mountains, connecting Guanzhong and the western part of the Hetao, making it easier for the dynasty to rule the fortress.
The Ziwu Ridge runs from northwest to southeast, and the Qin Great Wall crosses Longshan from southwest to northeast. The place where the straight road passes through the Qin Great Wall is Xiaoguan.
Within Xiao Pass is the boundary of Guanzhong. The location of the Dynasty Sheji is naturally heavily guarded. Therefore, several checkpoints and fortresses were built along this straight Qin Road to protect the safety of Xiao Pass. At this moment, there are more than ten people inside a checkpoint in Ziwu Ridge.
The soldiers had just made a bonfire, put the food in the bowls and placed it on the fire to warm, when they heard the dull sound of horse hooves, and the soldiers all changed their expressions.
