After a day and night trip, on the second day and night, Su Fengnuan came to Linle County with 30,000 soldiers and horses.
Thirty thousand soldiers and horses traveled day and night, eating only dry food when they were hungry, and drinking water from streams and springs on the way to quench their thirst. Traveling 800 miles day and night was already the limit, and it exceeded Su Fengnuan's expectations. Jinglu soldiers and horses are not all unusable soldiers.
After arriving in Linle County, half a day earlier than the scheduled schedule, Su Fengnuan gave orders to set up camp at Qingshiya, ten miles away from Linle County.
Although the military rations brought by the urgent march were not much, they were enough for supplies. The cooking camp set up a stove to light firewood. After the sergeants had a full meal, Su Fengnuan ordered everyone to rest at midnight and set off early tomorrow morning. To reach Yanbei.
The sergeants did not expect to be able to rest in the middle of the night. They all cheered and fell asleep.
Su Fengnuan didn't ask anyone to set up his own tent, but lay down on a big banyan tree on the mountainside of Qingshiya, leaning against the tree to sleep.
At dawn, the sky was still dark, and there were wolves howling behind Qingshiya Mountain.
Su Fengnuan roared loudly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and slowly sat up.
The soldiers were awakened by the howling of wolves, and someone shouted, "There are wolves!"
Someone shouted at the same time, "Light up the fire! Draw the bow and set the arrow!"
All of a sudden, the soldiers in the barracks jumped into chaos.
Seeing this, Su Fengnuan raised his voice and shouted, "Don't panic, these wolves were invited by me, and they won't eat your own people!"
The soldiers were all taken aback, but the roar of wolves surpassed the roar, and there were hundreds of them, and the soldiers still couldn't help panicking. But with Su Fengnuan's words in front, everyone listened to her, stood where they were, and looked at the hill where the wolf's roar came from.
I saw, in a blink of an eye, pairs of green shining eyes appeared on the top of Qingshiya.
Accompanied by the twilight of the day before dawn, the darkness was overwhelming, and it seemed to cover the entire top of the Qingshiya, which was very infiltrating.
Lieutenant General Zhang Lin came under the tree, looked up at the tree, and said nervously, "Miss Su, you said you invited these wolves?"
Su Fengnuan jumped off the tree trunk and said with a smile, "That's right! I ordered Lianlian to invite you here."
Zhang Lin knew that when Su Fengnuan chose 30,000 soldiers and horses to continue on the road, Miss Lianlian, who was following her, turned away and left. He asked at that time, she said that she had invited soldiers, but she didn't expect that she was invited, wasn't she? Man is a wolf. He sighed for a moment, "This... this wolf... really doesn't eat our own people?"
Su Fengnuan looked at the hilltop of Qingshiya and said with a smile, "These wolves are specially tamed by someone. They follow orders and don't eat their own people if they are not allowed to eat them. Don't worry."
Zhang Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Fengnuan ordered, "Send the order down, light a fire and cook, and after eating, prepare to go."
Zhang Lin Yingshi conveyed Su Fengnuan's order, and said loudly that these wolves were soldiers invited by Miss Su, and someone was responsible for domesticating them, obeying orders, and not eating their own people, so that the soldiers did not have to panic.
The soldiers were half relieved after hearing the words, and quickly trained and performed their duties to rectify military affairs.
After the wolf howled on the top of the mountain for a while, Su Fengnuan pinched his thumb and index finger together, put them to his lips, and whistled. The whistle was crisp and melodious, with soothing notes, overshadowing the roar of the wolf. After a while, the whistle fell, and the roar of the wolf stopped.
The soldiers all looked at Su Fengnuan in amazement.
Su Fengnuan looked at the direction of the mountain, put down his hand, and shouted with a smile, "Qiuhua, you are all here, why are you hiding from me, come down the mountain!"
After she shouted, a very thin figure slowly appeared from behind the hill, among the pack of wolves, if you don't look carefully, you can hardly tell that it is a human figure.
Su Fengnuan laughed, "I'll give you a roasted pheasant, come down!"
Hearing these words, the little figure rushed out of the pack of wolves with a "swoosh" and flew down the mountain, and the pack of wolves followed her and also rushed down. All of a sudden, there was a mass of blackness rushing towards them, indeed there were hundreds of wolves.
Although Su Fengnuan had spoken, the soldiers couldn't help trembling nervously when they saw these ferocious-looking wolves, and some of them could barely stand on their feet.
Su Fengnuan saw Qiuhua rushing down with the pack of wolves, and most of the soldiers turned pale. She pinched her thumb and index finger to her lips and whistled. When the whistle sounded, all the wolves were running. Qi stopped.
Qiuhua also stopped in her tracks, glanced back, pouted her mouth immediately, then ran to Su Fengnuan, pointed at her, and said, "My babies haven't seen you for a year, why are you still here?" Listen to your orders? Did you secretly feed them the ecstasy soup before leaving the Wolf Valley?"
When she opened her mouth, it was a clear and pleasant female voice.
Only then did the soldiers see her clearly. It turned out that she was a little Taoist nun wearing Taoist robes. She was only thirteen or fourteen years old. She was thin and petite, with a delicate appearance. It made her look very cute, not intimidating at all, and even halved her anger and annoyance.
Su Fengnuan reached out and pinched the flesh on her cheeks, and said with a smile, "How old are you? I haven't seen you for a year. The baby fat hasn't faded yet? Have you eaten too much meat recently?"
"Oh, I hate it!" Qiuhua opened Su Fengnuan's hand, took two steps back, and stomped at her, "I knew you would make fun of me, what's wrong with my baby fat? I... everyone compliments me on being cute... "
Su Fengnuan laughed, and said in a long voice, "Yes, very cute, I can't help but praise you when I see you."
Qiu Hua stared, "If you make fun of me again, I won't let my babies help you."
Su Fengnuan looked at her amusedly, "You don't want to eat my roasted pheasant anymore?"
Qiuhua pouted when he heard the words, and made a struggling expression of anger, annoyance and greed. After a long while, he said angrily, "You are a bad person, brother Ye Xi is the best."
Su Fengnuan chuckled, "He's not a good person either, but he's just pretending to be a good person because he's afraid of losing his brother's face in front of you."
Qiuhua said softly, "I want to eat roast pheasant."
Su Fengnuan said with a smile, "Call my sister to listen."
Qiuhua reluctantly called out, "Sister Su."
Su Fengnuan was in a good mood, and took another step forward, reaching out to pinch her face, "Sister Qiuhua is so good! After I finish the battle and save Yanbei, I will give you roasted pheasants. I will eat as much as you want. Just bake as much as you want."
Qiuhua was dissatisfied, "Isn't it roasting now?"
Su Fengnuan said seriously, "I'm going to save people now, I don't have time to cook for you, so remember first."
Qiuhua blinked her eyes, as if she remembered the soldiers around her looking at her, she straightened her expression immediately, put away her smile, and said solemnly, "Okay, remember, I'm here to help you, you must not Treat me badly."
"That's natural." Su Fengnuan replied with a smile.
Qiuhua turned around and whistled. When the wolves heard the whistle, they immediately lay down on the ground, like a big dog, very well-behaved.
The soldiers had never seen so many well-trained wolves, especially those trained by a little Taoist girl. Seeing that these wolves are really not too scary now, and they don't eat people, they are all at ease.
The cooking camp prepared the meals, and after all the soldiers had eaten, Su Fengnuan gave the order to set off, and 30,000 soldiers and 1,000 wolves left Qingshiya.
Su Fengnuan took the shortest mountain road leading to Yanbei. One day later, in the evening, he arrived at Fengkou Mountain, which is a hundred miles away from Yanbei.
The soldiers were a little tired after walking the mountain road for a day. Qiuhua and her wolves were extremely energetic, and every wolf was full of energy.
Coming to the halfway up Fengkou Mountain, Su Fengnuan suddenly reined in the horse's reins, turned around and made a gesture. The 30,000 soldiers stopped immediately.
Qiuhua followed Su Fengnuan and asked her, "Sister Su, it's still more than a hundred miles away, why don't you leave?"
Su Fengnuan looked at the front of the mountain and thought, "If there is an inner ghost in the capital, it is impossible for the news that I brought the soldiers from the foot of the capital to rescue Yanbei. There is news from Yanbei. There are two roads from the capital to Yanbei, one is the official road, and the other is the Qingshiya, Fengkou Mountain, the treacherous mountain forest and thorny road we are walking on now. If the Northern Zhou Dynasty had made arrangements in advance to intercept If so, it should be in... "
"Where is it?" Qiuhua asked immediately.
Su Fengnuan didn't answer, got off his horse, and told Zhang Lin, "Send the order, and all the soldiers rest where they are."
Zhang Linying conveyed Su Fengnuan's order, and the soldiers were tired from walking, so they all sat down on the ground to rest.
Su Fengnuan said to Qiuhua, "Stay here and keep an eye on the wolves. I'll go ahead to explore the way, and I'll go back as soon as I go."
Qiuhua is also a sensible person, knowing that Yanbei's army is in an urgent situation, he nodded, "Then you go and come back quickly."
Su Fengnuan nodded, tapped his toes, and climbed up to the top of Fengkou Mountain as lightly as a swallow.
The soldiers saw Su Fengnuan performing lightness kung fu, but in a short time, they reached the top of the mountain, all admiring and admiring. After marching for two days and nights, they have completely convinced Su Fengnuan from the initial suspicion. She is extremely strict when it comes to marching and walking, setting up camp, setting up defenses, drinking water and eating, etc. So far, there are 30,000 horses and no one is left behind.
Su Fengnuan stood on the top of Fengkou Mountain and looked at it for a while, then turned back to the original place, bent down and picked up a branch on the ground, wrote and drew on the ground for a while, then threw the branch casually, stood up, and said to Qiuhua, "Take The person who attacked Yanbei must be Chu Han. If he were to set up an ambush to intercept him, it must be at the exit of Fengkou Mountain. Fengkou Mountain occupies the right time and place, and the exit is narrow. It can only accommodate one person and one horse. I will definitely not follow the official path, so I must have sent heavy troops at the exit of Fengkou Mountain."
Qiu Hua immediately said, "The exit of Fengkou Mountain is five miles ahead, so in order to intercept you, Prince Bei Zhou, did he intercept you a hundred miles away from Yanbei City?"
Su Fengnuan nodded, "Chu Han is proficient in the art of war, he is not an ordinary noble prince who doesn't understand military strategy. I fought against him once, and he was defeated. This time, he must have spent all his money and wants to seek revenge from me. So, There should be 100,000 soldiers in ambushes at the exit of Fengkou Mountain, and he led the troops himself."
Qiuhua exclaimed "ah".
