Just after the Lantern Festival, there was movement on the lines that Liu Yinfeng ordered people to stare at.
"In the past two days, caravans have begun to pass by. The people in the caravans appear to be well-trained. There are people exploring the road in front, and there are people behind. They always look for open mountain tops to rest at night, and there are patrols all night.
We followed the caravan, and the carriages of those caravans occasionally scattered some things, all of which were grain." Uncle Qin looked a little solemn.
Liu Yinfeng nodded, his eyes full of contemplation: "The soldiers and horses have not yet moved the food and grass. The food and grass have already gone ahead, and the soldiers and horses are not far away."
Uncle Qin was a little hesitant: "The last time we fought with the Yelang Kingdom, the emperor and the empress personally fought. This time, I don't know..."
Before he finished speaking, Liu Yinfeng already understood what he wanted to ask. He smiled, shook his head and said: "No, the emperor and empress' previous personal expedition was just because the war was in trouble and the morale of the soldiers was low.
The emperor and empress marched in person to boost morale. However, after all, the emperor and empress are not generals. It is your majesty's duty to know people well and assign them well. Although General Zhao and Sun Bingzhi still have some shortcomings, your majesty will definitely let them go and practice."
When Uncle Qin heard this, his eyes fell on Liu Yinfeng, and he sighed softly and said: "Now that the young master has left Jincheng and promised to live in seclusion, why bother with these things anymore? Your Majesty and the Queen are also smart.
Man, these things are probably not too difficult."
When Liu Yinfeng heard this, he raised his head and smiled at Uncle Qin: "You followed me to Nanxun Town. I kept asking you to find out about this and that. I'm afraid you have already guessed me.
What do you want to do, but you haven’t asked me yet? I’ve been thinking about when you will ask me, but you didn’t make me wait too long.”
Uncle Qin quickly explained: "Master, don't blame the servant for being too talkative. If the master were strong and healthy, Uncle Qin would not say a word. But now that the master is in such bad health, why bother to talk anymore?"
What are you worrying about?" Uncle Qin wanted to say, and Liu Yinfeng is now in such a cold state, it is also because of the Queen Mother. He is so conscientious towards her, but he is destined to not get it, so why bother?
Then trap yourself in it.
But Uncle Qin didn't dare to say these words. After following Liu Yinfeng for so many years, he knew his temperament. But it was precisely because of his understanding that he felt that his young master was too pitiful.
Liu Yinfeng lowered his eyebrows and smiled, with longing in his eyes: "Although Ayun is already a queen, she has also suffered a lot because of the little prince. Although I left Jincheng, I still feel in my heart
I was worried about her, so I thought I would take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of my worries. Most likely, everything is fine with her, so I can rest assured. Now that she has been granted the title of Queen, I should be able to take care of things in the palace.
By settling this Yelang Kingdom matter, in her name, when the news of the great victory reaches Jincheng in the future, the courtiers can at least take more care of it after they know about it."
Uncle Qin frowned, but he knew that his young master would definitely not change his decision. After pondering for a long time, he said: "No matter what, we just hope that the young master will be well, and we will take care of the rest."
I am willing to share more for you."
"Sorry to trouble Uncle Qin and everyone." Liu Yinfeng responded with a smile.
As Liu Yinfeng expected, since the food and grass had already gone ahead, the soldiers and horses were not far behind. After January 25, a large number of soldiers and horses passed by not far from Nanxun.
"The war hasn't started yet, so why did the army come in such a mighty manner? If the defenders of Yelang Kingdom discover it, wouldn't all the previous preparations be in vain?" Amber frowned when he heard Shanglu's report.
, while pouring tea and muttering.
Liu Yinfeng raised the corners of his lips and smiled, but did not speak. Uncle Qin turned his head and spoke: "Since Your Majesty has arranged this, he must have made preparations. The food and fodder are ready. The army has arrived. I'm afraid it won't take a few days."
, will launch an attack. The Yelang Kingdom has at most 100,000 defenders at the border. It will take time to call in reinforcements, plus the time to prepare troops and horses. In less than a month, it is impossible to do it. Waiting for them
Once everything is ready, it’s too late.”
After hearing this, Amber suddenly realized, gave Uncle Qin a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "That's it."
Liu Yinfeng raised his eyes and looked at Shanglu: "Can we find out clearly, where are Zhao Yingjie and Sun Bingzhi?"
Shang Lu hurriedly said: "This time the marching troops have divided their thoughts. Sun Bingzhi is on the line near us, but Zhao Yingjie led an army of about 100,000 towards Gan Ying. His subordinates were a little confused. What Gan Ying did?
Yingjing is a high mountain, and it is very difficult to attack or defend. Why did Zhao Yingjie take most of his soldiers to Ganying?"
Liu Yinfeng smiled and said: "Gan Ying is as good as Gan Ying." But he didn't explain clearly. He only said: "Since Sun Bingzhi is nearby, I will write a letter later. You can bring my seal to see him.
As for Sun Bingzhi, if he asks about my situation, you don't have to say anything, just ask him to read my letter."
Shang Lu responded quickly, Liu Yinfeng stood up and walked behind the desk. Hu Huo quickly stepped forward to polish the ink. As soon as Liu Yinfeng picked up the pen, he saw Chang Shan walking in, followed by Shen Banxue who looked anxious.
As soon as Shen Banxue entered the house, she hurriedly walked towards Liu Yinfeng, her body trembling slightly: "I was collecting herbs in the mountains today and saw the army. Is there going to be a war soon? I'm afraid.
Not only I saw it, but also many people in the town saw it, and I heard the villagers spreading the word."
Liu Yinfeng nodded: "Yes, I'm afraid the war will start soon."
Hearing this, Shen Banxue became even more anxious: "Mr. Liu, how is your terrain survey going? Isn't it that the war is coming so fast and it's not very useful at all?"
"How could it be useless? I am preparing to write a letter to the general leading the troops. I will enter the camp in a few days so that I can help with some terrain exploration and other things." Liu Yinfeng raised the pen in his hand and smiled.
Follow the path.
Shen Banxue was stunned: "Do you know the general who leads the troops?"
After asking, he muttered to himself: "Yes, I am confused. You are officials in the same dynasty, how could you not know each other?"
After thinking for a while, he said: "Your body has not recovered yet, and the cold poison may break out at any time. If you want to enter the camp, why not take me with you?"
Liu Yinfeng was startled, but he didn't expect that she would suddenly make such a request, so he smiled and said: "Doctor Shen is joking, how can there be women in the military camp?"
Shen Banxue hurriedly said: "I can disguise myself as a man. I have medicine that can change my own voice. No one will find out. Just say that I am your doctor..."
Liu Yinfeng was about to refuse, but he heard Uncle Qin say: "I think this plan is feasible."
Liu Yinfeng frowned when he heard this, but saw Uncle Qin's eyes full of concern: "Young Master's health is the most important. The subordinates have personally seen the powerful force when the cold poison attacks. Shen It would be best if the doctor is willing to follow. After all, the young master also wants to see this battle won beautifully, right? Don’t worry, the young master, the safety of Doctor Shen is left to his subordinates, and the subordinates will definitely protect Doctor Shen. Not hurt at all.”
When Shen Banxue heard the words, he also nodded, with a hint of refusal in his voice: "Mr. Liu, don't worry, there is no one else in my family, and there is nothing to worry about. And, as Mr. Liu said, I My father was killed by Yelang people, so I hope to avenge my father personally. I also wanted to join the army before, but because I was a woman, I was repeatedly rejected. Now that I have such an opportunity this time, I will definitely not let it go easily. .”
Liu Yinfeng frowned and pondered for a long time, but his voice was still extremely calm, with a hint of indifference: "This matter is not a trivial matter. Doctor Shen does not need to make a decision in a hurry. There is still some time before the war begins. Doctor Shen Let’s go back and think about it more.”
"There's no need to think about it. I've made up my mind. Whether you agree with it or not, sir, I have to follow it." Shen Banxue's voice rose a little higher, and after speaking, he turned around and left.
Liu Yinfeng then raised his eyes to look at Uncle Qin, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes: "Uncle Qin..."
Uncle Qin had already known what Liu Yinfeng was going to say, and said with a smile: "Sir, what I just said is true. When the master's cold poison broke out before, we were all frightened. Now, It's only January, and the weather hasn't warmed up yet. I'm afraid it will be cold for another two months. In these two months, what should I do if Young Master gets cold poison? Military doctors in the army are mostly good at trauma. This kind of disease, I'm afraid there is nothing we can do. No matter how powerful the young master is, this battle will definitely not last for a year and a half. If the young master's body cannot last until that time..."
Liu Yinfeng sighed, knowing that everything Uncle Qin said was true, but it was precisely because he knew that what he said was the truth that he felt even worse. After a long time, he frowned and said: "I'll wait. I'll write to the ghost doctor soon and ask him to come to the border. No woman can enter the military camp, and I can't break this rule."
Uncle Qin glanced at Liu Yinfeng and murmured in a low voice: "Hasn't the Queen been in and out of the military camp several times?"
Although the voice was small, Liu Yinfeng could clearly hear it, and his expression seemed to be in a trance. After a while, he lowered his head and whispered: "She is different..."
Uncle Qin disagreed a little, but thought that if Liu Yinfeng invited the ghost doctor, the cold poison would definitely be eliminated, and there was a way, so he said no more.
Liu Yinfeng paused for a long time before saying, "I have never seen a woman as resourceful as her."
Uncle Qin was stunned for a moment, and could only sigh and stop talking.
After Liu Yinfeng wrote the letter, he asked Shang Lu to take the jade pendant and seal and go to the army to look for Sun Bingzhi together. Shang Lu was quite fast. They called back and forth in a day and a half. In the afternoon of the next day, Liu Yinfeng was in the army. After taking a nap, I heard voices coming from outside. Not long after, Uncle Qin's voice came in from outside: "Young Master, General Sun wants to see you." (To be continued)
