Chapter 77 Who will determine the storm
When I heard the news that Yi Jiajun assisted Ye City, it was the third day for Han Yue and Yan Niang to find Liu.
In the past few days, Han Yue and Yan Niang lived in Xiuzhuang, taking care of Liu and her sick youngest son Zhuang'er, and gradually became more familiar with Liu Shi. Over the years, although the face has changed and the situation has changed, what remains unchanged is the deep love between mother and daughter, and the love between flesh and blood.
Snow Frost simply explained the matter to Tang Dafan and Lan Er. Whether they are reluctant or not, they dare not say anything more.
Yanniang, Han Yue and Liu took the Zhuang children to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment. On the way back, they went to the teahouse for tea. As soon as I entered, I heard a lot of people talking about the war.
"I heard that Marshal Yi of Huangzhou has sent troops to assist Ye City, and the army is said to have set out. This time, Ye City has hope."
said an older man.
"I hope it's not some old, weak, sick and disabled. Think about it, a few years ago, those of us who were ordered to assist Chuzhou were all soldiers. There are no sophisticated weapons and few capable generals. In the event of war, all marshals only care about self- Protection. That year, we were ordered by the emperor to fill the number, ah..."
A middle-aged man said, "Look at my leg, it was broken back then. How many people died in Chuzhou? Isn't it nothing..."
The middle-aged man is a veteran and knows the inside story.
"Don't talk nonsense..."
A clerk warned: "We have to have confidence in Marshal He now, not to mention Miss, but Mulan..."
"You veteran, you are wrong this time," the old man shook his head: "I heard my son in the army say that Marshal Yi sent General Mu Hanxing, the deputy commander of the army, as the master. General Mu Hanxing fought in the south and north with Marshal Yi for many years, but he was the central figure of the Yi family army. This time, the elite cavalry of Yijiajun was also brought here, which was the best cavalry of Menghua Dynasty. In addition, the leader of the cavalry is General Yi Hui, the eldest son of Marshal Yi. Think about it, their cronies and sons have come here. How can they not sincerely help us fight..."
"Ah, well, Marshal Yi is really loyal to the country, just waiting for He Jiajun, Yi Jiajun to establish a wonderful achievement in Ye City..."
The veteran's eyes also flashed with joy.
"Marshal Yi is really a good minister of a generation. The military situation was urgent, and the army set out before the emperor's order arrived. It is likely that this victory will not be rewarded..."
The old man said with admiration.
"Huier, do you also come to Ye City?" Liu grabbed Yan Niang's sleeve and asked nervously.
"Yes, my brother will also come... Brother Mu Hanxing is my sister's brother." Yan Niang said, "At that time, there will be a chance to meet my brother."
"The war is urgent, let's see what's going on. However, when the army entered the city, I took my aunt to see it. Maybe I could see Brother Hui's..." Han Yue said.
Liu nodded.
Yi Jiajun camped outside the city. On that day, Hanxing took Yi Hui, Guan Xiang and other troops to the city to meet He Fan.
He Lingran, Zhao Wei, An Peng and others stood at the gate of the barracks correspondingly.
"General Mu, thank you for your hard work all the way, please!"
He Lingran is dressed in military uniform, with beautiful eyebrows and valiant and heroic posture.
"I've heard of Mulan in He's army for a long time, and I'm really surprised to see it today!" Han Xing smiled and praised, and followed He Lingran into the military account.
In the account, He Fan is dressed in gray casual clothes, with a slightly fat figure and gray hair. Look at them with anticipation.
"Mu Hanxing, Yi Hui, Guan Xiang has met Marshal He!"
Three people knelt on one knee and saluted.
Although they do not belong to the same army, they are the same generals of the Menghua Dynasty. They have different ranks, and they should salute. Moreover, before sending troops, Yi Feng specially told them that they must obey He Fan's orders and be cautious and humble everywhere to avoid causing unnecessary suspicion and trouble.
He Fan picked up the cold star:
"Get up quickly, don't be polite! You are guests from far away, our distinguished guests and benefactors in Ye City..." He Fan finished a sentence and coughed continuously.
"Marshal He..."
"I'm old and useless. I was also very anxious about this invasion of leaving the country. I suddenly fell ill. After that, it depends on you. But wherever I am the master, Ling Ran can decide for me, and you can also be the master! Yecheng, I'll give it to you. 300,000 people in Ye City, as well as the people after Ye City, will be handed over to the princes!"
He Fan said reluctantly, with a sincere face and heavy entrustment.
"As long as there is still a breath of the cold star, we will never let the puppet army invade Ye City!"
The cold star responds heavily.
Ling Ran ordered someone to help his father to rest, find someone to see a seat for Han Xing, Yi Hui and others, and directly entered the topic to discuss military affairs.
"Ling Ran wants to know the situation of General Mu's 30,000 soldiers."
He Lingran is frank and capable, exuding the heroism and wisdom of a man in the army.
"The Northern Army is 15,000, mostly a cavalry force, controlled by Yi Hui, who has been a striker many times and can attack unexpectedly. Strong combat effectiveness and rich experience in combat. The Eastern Army was 15,000, led by General Guan Xiang, mostly infantry. Many people in the army are excellent at archery and have extraordinary bows and crossbows. It is a very strong force for defending the city. The cold star talks calmly and seriously.
"Huangkou children are also experienced in the war. You are so strong..."
Zhao Wei muttered loudly, but everyone here also heard it.
"Zhao Wei!" Ling Ran scolded loudly: "What are you talking about? How kind and selfless it was for General Mu to lead troops to assist Ye City. You don't know what kind of achievements General Mu and General Yi, General Guan, established in the campaign against the country last summer. As soon as you hear the enemy attack, you ask for peace and have no ambition. Now what right do you have to slander General Mu!"
Ling Ran left the main seat and bowed to the cold star:
"I'm sorry, General Mu!"
Han Xing stretched out his hand to help Ling Ran:
"Miss He doesn't have to be like this. The cold star doesn't care. However, Hanxing hopes that in the face of the great enemy, we can share the same hatred, less mutual suspicion and attack, and work together, so that we have a better chance of winning. The strength of Yi Jiajun and the ability of He Jiajun are to be displayed on the battlefield with the enemy. It is definitely not as fast as he is now!"
The cold star is neither humble nor arrogant, and everyone is convinced.
Zhao Wei snorted angrily.
"General Mu is magnificent!"
veteran An Peng praised.
He Lingran simply introduced the current situation in Ye City to Han Xing, and also described the information on the border one by one. By the time everyone's analysis was completed, countless lights had been lit outside the camp.
On the same day, Ling Ran entertained Han Xing, Yi Hui and others alone.
"Come on, I toast a glass of wine. Thank you for coming to Ye City!"
Ling Ran picked up the wine glass with a sincere face.
"I'm really sorry about this. My father-in-law has a strict order, and we are strictly forbidden to drink alcohol on weekdays. Let's change it to tea instead of wine..."
Han Xing said solemnly with a little apologies.
Ling Ran was a little surprised, but still nodded and ordered someone to change the tea.
"I have heard that Marshal Yi is rigorous in governing the army for a long time. When I saw him today, it was really like this! You are rigorous and self-disciplined, and Ling Ran also admires you very much!"
"Miss He is overreputed."
A cup of tea was drunk, and Ling Ran ordered the entourage in the account to go out.
"Today's banquet is not convenient for Ling Ran to say something, but now he must say a famous saying to the generals!" Ling Ran arched his hand with a serious face.
"My father has been sick over the years, and his management of the army has become increasingly lax. Ling Ran is a woman, and her heart is always weak. The generals have their own troops and work together. Although there are more than 200,000 troops in Yecheng, it is good that more than 100,000 can really be used on the battlefield. All the generals are working hard to preserve their strength, and they may not be able to serve their lives!"
Although I felt the detractedness of Zhao Wei and others, I didn't expect that the matter would be so serious. Han Xing frowned and didn't say anything.
Marshal Yi heard that Yecheng was in an emergency and quickly sent troops. All the kings came thousands of miles, and they were all loyal to the country. Ling Ran is very sorry for this situation. If you feel that the defense of Ye City is unbearable and the He family army is unbearable, even if you abandon Ye City and the He family army at that time, Ling Ran will have no complaints.
Ling Ran said.
Cold Star shakes his head:
"Miss He, Marshal Yi sent troops not for a city in Yecheng, let alone for the Yi family army, but for the thousands of dream people behind the border line! Miss He said this by trusting us. Yi Jiajun has come here and must do his best!"
The voice of the cold star was calm, but Ling Ran was still shocked.
She believes that she won this bet.
"I trust General Mu, General Yi and General Guan to meet each other frankly. Ling Ran also thought that there will be steps to rectify the army and do his best to defeat the country and defend the country!"
Cold Star Arch:
"I can trust you too!"
In the sad night, four people looked around in the barracks without entourage.
"Miss He, can you take us to the granary? Guarding the Acropolis, the reserve of grain and fodder is very important to ensure that it is foolproof! You need to control the army and make sure that the grain and fodder are under control..."
Guan Xiangdao.
He Lingran nodded.
The grain and fodder are about two or three miles east of the barracks.
In the warm and cold season, under the sharp wind, under the bright moon and sparse stars, four people slowly walked to the granary. Halfway through the road, I vaguely saw several people on the opposite side talking as they walked.
Ling Ran and others cleverly hid into the tree and listened carefully to the conversation.
"You have worked hard all night, let's drink flower wine..."
A wavering voice with an evil smile.
"We don't have to be so polite... We didn't help anything. It's not good..."
"Nothing, we don't care about this little money. On the day I get you, it will be good for you to be more flexible. Wait for the country to come quickly. As soon as the army is in chaos, you can go to the south and find a mountain village to enjoy it. The money is enough for you to spend endlessly..."
"Thank you, thank you..."
After a few people left, Ling Ran's face turned pale.
"Scum!"
"Miss He, listen to what they mean, they haven't taken any action yet!" Guan Xiang comforted: "It's not too late for us to find it... They should have been bought by leaving the country and take the opportunity to burn the military grain. We have found that they can't burn this military food."
"Yes, Guan Xiang is right. However, it's not that we can't burn it, but we burn it ourselves..."
Han Xing said decisively, and his eyes exuded a fierce cold light in the night.
"What does General Mu mean?"
"The burning of military grain was supposed to be unexpected and did not need to be planned for a long time... Why didn't they do it? On the one hand, it may be that they had to wait for Yi Jiajun to come, look at the situation, plan, and suddenly attack to destroy both of us. On the other hand, there may be a big traitor in your army, waiting to surrender. However, they also have to use military food now... When they burn military food, it is time for them to launch attacks and mutiny. If we burn ourselves, they may be caught off guard..."
Yi Hui explained: "If there is a traitor, he must be panicked and feel betrayed. Even if there is no military food here and the supply of Yi Jiajun, the situation will be controlled by us. If we leave the country and send troops in a hurry, then we have a great chance of winning..."
Siyang nodded to Yi Hui with approval.
A long-term entanglement, the two people are connected. At this moment, Yi Hui is not the silent and forbearable teenager, but a wise young general.
"Is it feasible?"
Ling Ran asked.
"Then let's see if Miss He can trust Yi Jiajun..."
Han Xing said slowly, frankly and sincerely.
