Jingcheng · Weiming Palace
Li Xian sat in the study, holding a piece of silk cloth in her slender hand.
Against the background of the graceful and luxurious red palace dress, the cheeks as white as suet appear more and more delicate and beautiful.
However, on this Qingcheng's face, the two curved willow-leaf eyebrows raised slightly like a frown.
Who is it that makes such an alluring beauty unhappy? Such an expression appears on this perfect face, it is simply heart-wrenching to watch, even for the sake of a Bomei smile, he would do anything to do anything!
Star to the big tent and Mu secretly talk.
I didn't hear it at first, but then I heard Xing Lou's voice say: I want to lead people to sneak into the territory of the Xiongnu, kill the war horses of the Xiongnu, and burn the winter rations of the Xiongnu, in order to severely dampen the strength of the Xiongnu, and the north is cold and freezing, if the Xiongnu is successful, there will be countless casualties.
Mu Chu did not agree, and the two debated a number of sentences, and Xing made a generous statement: "Only, kill all the war horses of the Huns, burn all the food and grass of the Huns; kill the soldiers of the Huns, and imprison the women and children of the Huns, so that there will be no future troubles!
Mu pondered for a long time, and finally allowed…
Xing, leave the tent, walk a hundred paces, laugh wanton; return to Feiyu Camp.
Li Xian read this short silk newspaper over and over again, and an indescribable feeling filled her heart.
Li Xian knew her uncle, and in the entire ranks of the great Chu generals, Li Mu was a leader in terms of the style of Confucian generals.
And the military strategy proposed by Lin Feixing can be said to have fundamentally overturned the most basic principle of military governance of the entire northern region of hundreds of thousands of troops! Moreover, such an active and decisive method of governing the army can be said to be completely contrary to his uncle's thinking!
Li Xian never thought that Li Mu would actually agree.
This shows what? This shows that Li Mu has the intention to retire and already wants to hand over the military power in the north. If this is not the case, Li Mu, as the supreme commander, will never allow anyone to change his most basic thinking about governing the army.
It seems that the way of handling the loss of food and grass really hurt my uncle's heart...
Since Li Mu officially refused to support Crown Prince Li Zhu last time in the North, Li Xian had actually started planning to find someone to replace Li Mu in the North, and the person Li Xian had chosen was Lin Feixing.
For one thing, Li Xian liked Lin Feixing's detachment, and Lin Feixing was capable. After the country changed hands, his younger brother also needed the help of famous officials and generals to be able to hold on to this country.
Second, Lin Feixing is young enough and has no background. At such an age, he can grow up and age at the same time as his younger brother. Moreover, Lin Feixing has no background, which means that taking him into his own hands can be compared to those who The so-called gentry are better at control and manipulation.
But at this moment, Li Xian sensed her uncle's thoughts, and she was still sad for no reason.
Maybe this is the complexity of human nature. Even if you draw it slowly, it is inevitable that the rabbit will die.
Of course, it wasn't Li Mu who really made Li Xian so unhappy, but Lin Feixing.
Li Xian had already had her own plans for matters related to the Northern Territory, but Lin Feixing's actions at this time would likely disrupt Li Xian's plan.
Li Xian, who has long been accustomed to controlling everything and presupposing everything, made a "mistake" for the first time, and a "mischief" happened here at Lin Feixing!"
Li Xian was a little irritable: Lin Feixing was clearly a member of her chess game, and she had already placed her in an important position. At this moment, Lin Feixing's actions gave Li Xian the feeling that she was playing chess with pieces, each piece was steadily placed on the board, each piece was considered a no-brainer, and the chess game progressed steadily step by step. Suddenly, a chess piece "lived", he waved to himself and said, "You play first, I will temporarily leave the chess game to do something else, and it may not come back, so you don't have to wait for me..."
"Crack!" Li Xian slapped the silk cloth heavily on the table.
Xiao Ci, who was standing outside, was startled when she heard the sound, and hurriedly asked across the door of the study, "Your Highness, what are your orders?"
"Nothing!" Li Xian's voice contained obvious displeasure.
Outside the door, Xiaoci kept silent, but a deep doubt emerged in her heart: who is so capable, who can actually offend Her Royal Highness, the always light-hearted princess, so unhappy
Xiaoci and Li Xian grew up together, and she knew Li Xian's temperament best.
The princess' temperament was more like the Empress, but she was a little less friendly and more serious than the Empress. For so many years, Xiaoci had been serving Li Xian closely. In Xiaoci's memory, no matter who was before. Afterwards, Li Xian rarely vented her inner emotions...
Thinking of this, Xiao Ci became more and more curious about the person who could provoke Her Royal Highness's out-of-control anger.
And Li Xian in the study had no idea that Xiao Ci's thoughts were on the verge of "turning over the river".
She looked at the silk cloth several times, and the more she looked, the more annoying she became, so she crumpled the silk cloth into a ball and threw it in the brocade box.
"Ugh… "
After a long time, Li Xian could only sigh softly, her heart was full of helplessness.
From the north to this point, the road is long. What was written on this silk newspaper was already a few days ago. I am afraid that Lin Feixing has already acted at this time, and no matter how angry he is, it will not help.
Besides, I'm angry here for nothing, but others don't know it at all, how boring is my anger
That's it.
Li Xian raised her brows and raised the corners of her mouth lightly. Although she was "collided" by Lin Feixing's behavior, Li Xian calmed down and thought about it carefully and found that it was not interesting.
For a long time, everything around Li Xian, even all of her subordinates, Li Xian, had to be under control to be at ease.
But what about this Lin Feixing
Through this incident, Li Xian understood: this Lin Feixing is different from everyone else...
If those people were chess pieces, Lin Feixing would use seeds to describe it more appropriately.
An unknown seed that Li Xian discovered by accident, and cultivated carefully on a whim. She had exhausted her efforts to make this seed "thriving".
However, when this seed broke out of the ground, Li Xian discovered that his growth direction, speed, and many other factors were almost completely out of her "control".
Although she was not used to it, Li Xian thought about it and felt that it was not bad. Let's see what this seed will grow out of!
Li Xian got up from her seat and found that her legs were numb from sitting. She slowly walked to the window of the study, pushed open the window sash, and looked into the distance: This is a very dangerous way to go, Lin Feixing, you must come back alive. This palace will wait and see.
…
North
After Lin Wanyue got Li Mu's approval, she immediately went to her tent and ordered two of her most trusted and capable men so far, Zhang Sanbao and Meng Ni Da; in addition, Lin Wanyue thought this operation was the most effective. An important person - Bian Kai!
Lin Wanyue called the three of them to her tent and briefly explained the mission this time, and of course also pointed out the danger of this trip.
After she finished speaking, Lin Wanyue added: If she doesn't want to go because she is afraid of danger, she won't force it!
Lin Wanyue specially looked at Bian Kai, this time Bian Kai's reaction made Lin Wanyue very satisfied, I saw that he straightened his back immediately, and seriously expressed his willingness to do his best to make this trip.
Lin Wanyue nodded in satisfaction.
In a blink of an eye, Bian Kai has also been in the army for almost a year. Since the last food and forage incident, although Lin Wanyue forgave Bian Kai, she never gave Bian Kai any tasks, and just left Bian Kai with Lin Yu.
At the beginning of the twenty-ninth year of Yuanding, Lin Wanyue worshipped the vanguard, and specially named the general Bian Kai to come over, and there was no further follow-up.
After a year of tempering Bian Kai's temperament has been significantly different from before, even Zhang Sanbao, who has always looked down on Bian Kai, has unknowingly accepted Bian Kai.
everything's ready.
The next day, the four set off.
Lin Wanyue specially asked Yu Wan to help her dress up for this line of work.
At Lin Wanyue's request, Bian Kai also put on a two-stroke beard and a felt hat.
The Huns were naturally rough, tall, and sloppy. Among the four, only Zhang Sanbao was the most similar in appearance to the Huns, followed by Meng Ni Da, and Bian Kai and Lin Wanyue the least.
Lin Wanyue and the four put on leather jackets and riding boots that they had specially obtained, and rode their horses towards the north.
At this time, Lin Wanyue's face was covered with a lion's beard, and her lips were smeared. The temperament of Lin Wanyue immediately became much rougher. With that dark face and a sheepskin jacket, she looked very real. Some Huns look like.
The farther north you go, the wider the horizon is, the withered and yellow grass seems to connect all the way to the end of the sky.
The west wind roared and slashed the faces of the four people who were riding the horse in the wind, but everyone had a determined look on their faces. They ran wildly in the wind without retreating.
Lin Wanyue rode Long Ran Baoju at the front, Bian Kai almost kept pace with Lin Wanyue, watching the surroundings and the ground, and saying something to Lin Wanyue from time to time, while Zhang Sanbao and Meng Ni Da followed from left to right. Behind Lin Wanyue, she looked like she was escorting her and following her to the death.
In Lin Wanyue's arms, she had prepared a lot of "hidden weapons" that she had developed by herself. A dagger was attached to her waist, a saber was hidden under a cloth bag on the left of the horse's body, a rope was hidden on the right, and she was wrapped in oiled paper. Fire Zhezi.
"Son! Wait a minute!"
Hearing Bian Kai's words, Lin Wan pulled the reins and the team of four stopped. Bian Kai rolled over and dismounted, squatted on the ground and touched the ground covered with withered grass. He picked up another piece of turf and put it under his nose to sniff it. sniff.
It was the first time for Zhang Sanbao and Meng Ni Da to see Bian Kai's tracking ability.
After a while, Bian Kai got up from the ground, turned on his horse and said to Lin Wanyue: "Sir, there should be a tribe of Xiongnu nearby, and there are many people. These horseshoe prints are not long, at most two or three days. The meaning of going down is to find a place to avoid it first, wait until it is dark, and then go to investigate, bring back the information, and the son will make calculations."
Lin Wanyue nodded when she heard the words. She rode on the back of Long Ran Baoju and looked around, and saw a small hill in the southwest. It was very awkward on this endless grassland, and it was the most convenient way to hide.
So with an order, the four turned their horses to the west and ran towards the hill...
