Chapter 127 Desert North Fortress
In the face of Li Lingmin's calmness, Han Ruoli is a little panicked. Is it good to pretend or is it really so easy to be trusted? Li Lingmin actually said such murderous words to herself. Is she really not afraid of betraying her?
When Li Lingmin saw that Han Ruo couldn't leave, she said disappointedly and said, "I know I'm a little delusional. My mother has nine daughters, but I'm the youngest. The first six princesses and two have gone to other countries to marry. All four of them have real power in the dynasty. Compared with them, I don't have anything, so how can I take the throne? "
Han Ruoli said, "Don't give up. As long as you dare to think, there will be hope."
Li Lingmin said, "I still don't understand a little now."
"What?" Han Ruoli felt that there should be few things that Li Lingmin couldn't understand. She was so smart that everything should be understood at all.
Li Lingmin said, "Amou among the royal relatives, those who usurp power and seize the throne are all powerful. Since the opening of the women's dynasty, I have never heard that farmers can also win the throne, but these sects in the world are a great threat to the imperial power."
Han Ruoli said, "The imperial relatives are all rich and powerful. They are not satisfied with the status quo. It is understandable that they want to go to a higher level, but you should not ignore those farmers at the bottom."
Li Lingmin said, "I know. Let's go quickly. We have to catch up with that team before dark, or we will sleep in the snow at night."
The fast horse and whip ran for about an hour. Before dark, I caught up with the team to go to the Beihu border. After catching up with the large army, Han Ruoli said to Li Lingmin, "Find a way to let the eighth princess know that I will follow you to the Beihu border."
Li Lingmin is very smart and knows that Han Ruoli's doing this will not affect Aojian Villa. She said cheerfully, "She will soon know that there are eight princesses in this team."
Han Ruoli looked around and found that there was no one else in the marching tent. He said admiringly, "If you know how to use the villain, it's really yours."
Li Lingmin said, "The real information is important, but the fake is also very important. At present, there are several of them that I have identified as spies, and some of whom I am not sure, so you still have to be careful. The eighth princess is determined to kill you. You sleep next to me every night, at least dozens of my personal bodyguards still It's trustworthy."
Han Ruoli will not refuse. If he dies inexplicably, he will be wronged.
This team of about 300 or 400 people brought a lot of supplies to the iron cavalry group. When they went to the Beihu border, they actually walked for more than a month. When they arrived at the Beihu border, it was already the cold winter. The snow did not pass the knees, the cold wind was cold, and blowing on their faces like cutting. They all said that the scenery outside was beautiful and cold. Looking at the Great Wall like a giant dragon, I couldn't help marveling that the Great Wall was built in the 9th century BC. At that time, King Xuan of Zhou built a city and a beacon to defend against the invasion of the northern nation. In the 7th century BC, many vassal states, such as Qi, Wei, Zhao, Yan and Qin, built their own Great Walls to prevent the invasion of neighboring countries. In 22l BC, the First Emperor of Qin destroyed the six countries and unified the whole country. Soon, he ordered to start building the Great Wall, connecting the Great Wall in the north of Qin, Yan, Zhao and other countries, and adding and expanding it to build the Qin Great Wall from the west to Liaodong. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also built the Great Wall several times to protect the traffic between Hetao, Longxi and other places and east-west.
However, the Great Wall built by the First Emperor of Qin no longer exists. The Great Wall we see now was built after the Ming Dynasty. I don't know what kind of Great Wall the Great Wall is in front of us. Or, this is not related to any ancient history at all. These place names alone do not match the ancient address. Han Ruoli's bold imagination, maybe this is another space. Thinking of this, I can't help laughing.
Li Lingmin asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Han Ruoli pointed to the towering Great Wall and said, "This wall is so majestic."
Li Lingmin said, "This was built by the Empress in the Empress's Dynasty and has been built for three generations. This wall is being cast, which is lower than the invasion of the Beihu people. With this wall, the northern Hu border has been peaceful. Now think about it, this wall should have a history of 600 years, although with this inverted wall, the north Hu Manzi still repatriated my daughter to heaven. If you don't strengthen the precautions, I'm afraid that the people standing on this wall will become barbic people.
Han Ruoli said, "How depressing it would be if you really worked hard to build a defensive fortress and were robbed to defend yourself."
Li Lingmin said, "So we have to guard this wall fortress for generations."
A cold wind blew, and Li Lingmin's bodyguard said, "Princess, let's go in. The air here is dry and the cold wind is piercing. The princess is the body of a daughter. What's the accident..."
Li Lingmin raised his hand to interrupt the maid and said, "It's not the first time I've stood in this cold wind. You don't have to worry about me. Is the vice commander of the iron cavalry regiment arrived?"
"It's here!" The maid said, "The princess didn't notice that he has been there for a long time and has been behind you. She dares not disturb the princess."
Li Lingmin and Han Ruoli turned their heads and saw a man standing behind him with snowflakes on their shoulders. They looked at Li Lingmin resolutely and saw Li Lingmin turn around. Then they knelt down on one leg, held an iron sword in their cold red hands, and said respectfully, "Your Highness Princess Li Jiefei of the Disabled Sword."
Li Lingmin said, "General Fei doesn't have to be polite. Let's do it."
Li Jiefei got Li Lingmin's permission before he stood up and said in a cheerful voice, "The last general didn't know that the princess came from afar and missed the distance."
Li Lingmin said, "If you greet me from afar, I will definitely condemn you. What is the vocation of the Iron Cavalry Regiment?"
Li Jiefei said loudly, "The soldiers of the iron cavalry, vow to defend the fortress of the city wall to the death, and vow not to leave."
Li Lingmin said, "Not bad! Your task is to cooperate with the Beihu garrison and guard this ten-thousand-mile wall. What have happened to the Hu people recently?
"Princess Hui, it is snowing heavily at this time, and the Beihu army has retreated back outside the cordon. Nevertheless, our iron cavalry has never been relaxed for a day to guard the fortress of the city wall at all times."
"Very good!" Li Lingmin's tone at this time was very deterrent, which made Han Ruoli look at him with new eyes. General Fei, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Han Ruolihan.
Li Jiefei arched his hand and said, "I've seen Mr. Han."
Han Ruoli returned the salute and said, "Hello, General Fei."
Li Lingmin said to Li Jiefei, "Her Majesty gave us a thousand quilts, 3,000 cotton coats, and several pieces of wine and meat. You can send these to the soldiers of the iron cavalry."
Li Jiefei knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, princess!"
Li Lingmin said, "Go and arrange it now. After the arrangement, you can return to my account."
"Yes!" Li Jiefei turned around and walked away.
Li Lingmin said to Han Ruoli, "Let's go in and wait for him. What do you think of this Li Jiefei?"
Han Ruoli thought for a moment and said, "I don't know how to evaluate it. If it were me, I might have been a deserter long ago. It's ice and snow here. You see, his hands holding the sword are frozen red, or he still refuses to let go of the iron sword. There is no cotton cloth wrapped around the hilt of his sword, and it must be very cold. Such will, It can't be compared with ordinary people."
Li Lingmin said, "Yes, Li Jiefei has joined this iron cavalry regiment since he was 16 years old. Twenty years later, and he has changed from an ordinary cavalry to a deputy commander. Twenty years, he has never left this territory. He has made many extraordinary achievements and is a great contribution to the imperial dynasty."
Han Ruoli said, "This person is also loyal to the Celestial Empire. It's your blessing that you have such a deputy commander."
Li Lingmin said, "His official position is deputy commander-in-chief. In fact, when I was away, he was like a coach. On the contrary, he seemed to be dispensable, but I am indeed a dispensable person." Speaking of this, Li Lingmin smiled at herself.
Not long after, Li Jiefei came outside the tent and shouted, "The last general Li Jiefei will see the princess."
Li Lingmin came to the door in person, raised the curtain, and said to Li Jiefei, "Come in."
Princess Li Jiefei opened the curtain for herself and was extremely moved. Li Jiefei stood in the center and didn't know what to say. The ninth princess Li Lingmin said, "Mr. Han is not an outsider. Didn't we agree that you are my deputy general in front of the soldiers. There are no outsiders here. You are my friend."
Li Jiefei said, "The last general dare not."
Li Lingmin shook his head secretly. This Li Jiefei is good at everything, but it's too rigid. He said to Li Jiefei, "General Fei, sit down. You don't have to be too polite."
Li Jiefei sat down and arched his hand and said, "Excuse me, General, what did the princess come all the way to the border of Beihu this time? Is it just to send these armament supplies?
Han Ruo thought: Your question is too straightforward. Li Lingmin must be angry.
Unexpectedly, Li Lingmin was not angry at all and said, "This time I came to spend New Year's Eve with the soldiers. Anyway, I am also the commander-in-chief of the Iron Cavalry Regiment. Although I am a princess, I should also guard this North Lake Fortress like the soldiers."
Li Jiefei said, "Your Highness, you are the body of a daughter. This North Lake fortress is even colder in winter. If it freezes your Highness, the last general can't bear it."
Li Lingmin sighed, "You all regard me as a princess of Jinzhi Yuye. Do you know that I have also lived here on the Beihu border for two years."
"I will know in the end." Li Jiefei's eyes shined and said admiringly, "Although the princess is a daughter, she is not inferior to the man at all. On the battlefield, the princess is also at the forefront..."
"Report--" A soldier outside the door shouted outside the tent: "General Fei, the soldiers of the Iron Cavalry Regiment clashed with the garrison soldiers, and the workers fought."
After hearing this, Li Jiefei stood up and said to Li Lingmin with an ugly face, "Your Highness will come as soon as she goes."
Li Lingmin said, "Go ahead."
Li Jiefei strode out of the tent. Li Lingmin said to Han Ruoli, "Let's go and have a look."
Han Ruoli asked, "How many people are stationed?"
"100,000!"
Han Ruoli asked again, "How many people are there in the iron cavalry group?"
"less than a thousand people."
Han Ruo thought: The iron cavalry regiment of less than a circle of people dared to clash with 100,000 garrison. What kind of team is this cavalry regiment?
