The woman is a general, and the soldiers whisper to each other along the way.
Everyone knows that this is the only woman in the court, and she is also the national preceptor of her country.
Perhaps it was because there were too many people with lower status than Meng Li in the capital, and many officials had to bow to Meng Li when they saw him. On the contrary, these soldiers felt balanced and felt that it would be okay for a woman to be their commander.
Officials who were higher than them were even more groveling when they saw her.
Moreover, his status is so noble that he does not need to kneel down when meeting the emperor.
I don't think it's anything.
There are some doubts about the ability of this national division to lead troops. If you don't pay attention in battle, you will die. A good commander can save many of them from dying.
Looking at the appearance of the Imperial Master, who was cold and repulsive, some soldiers fell in love with him, while others had crooked thoughts in their hearts.
But no one dared to show it.
This all stems from the influence of the position of the Imperial Preceptor in the Qi Dynasty. People in the country believed that the Imperial Preceptor was an envoy from heaven. Even the emperor did not dare to violate the ancestral etiquette and take possession of the Imperial Preceptor Meng Li. These people How dare you take action
In this era where most people believe in ghosts and gods and respect heaven and earth, no one dares to offend God and attract accountability and punishment from God.
Vice General Li was riding a horse, sullenly beside Meng Li.
Having already left the capital, Meng Li turned his head and looked at Vice General Li.
"General Lee?"
Vice General Li looked at Meng Li: "Master Imperial Master."
Meng Li raised his chin, his eyes far away:
"General Li should be called a general, not a national advisor."
Vice General Li shouted dryly to Meng Li:
"General."
Meng Li curled his lips, it seemed that Vice General Li was not convinced.
No matter what, you will always be convinced.
Lieutenant General Li is just a simple warrior. He is relatively mediocre and his thoughts are not as crooked as those of civil servants. It is not difficult to convince him.
She didn't expect that someone would cause trouble for her at the border.
The journey continued without a break except for a meal at noon, until it was almost dark, and then Lieutenant General Li said:
"General, let's set up camp."
Meng Li hummed and found a place to camp.
I practiced all night and didn't sleep all night. On the second day, I marched again. I marched for several days in a row. The journey was long and difficult. The further away from the capital, the harder the road became.
Lieutenant General Li had nothing to say to Meng Li along the way.
What I say the most all day long is:
General, let's set up camp.
General, let's eat.
General, let's march.
…
Meng Li said that he felt like there was an automatic alarm clock beside him.
Finally arrived at the border today.
There was a general guarding the border. When he saw Meng Li, he was a little dumbfounded. He had been guarding the border all year round and had never seen Meng Li.
Vice General Li said angrily:
"General Liu, this is the National Adviser. He was appointed by the Holy Lord as the General of the Northern Campaign. He commanded an army of 100,000 and came to support the border."
General Liu was extremely surprised. Although he heard that the national preceptor was a woman, he did not expect to go into battle and come to the border.
sigh!
The barbarians are coming with force.
Is this really okay
Meng Li did not want to have a grudge with General Liu. He knew the border defense, the habits of foreigners, combat techniques, etc. better than he did. Only by cooperating without hesitation could we better defeat the enemy.
Thinking of this, she deliberately smiled at General Liu in an approachable manner, and said casually:
"General Liu's reputation spreads far and wide, and I am familiar with him in Beijing. Now I finally see the general in person. He is indeed as extraordinary as the rumors say."
Business blows.
General Liu was dazzled by Meng Li's smile. The border was windy and sandy, the climate was harsh, and the women he raised were few and beautiful.
Suddenly seeing such an outstanding-looking woman, coupled with being praised so fiercely, a blush suddenly appeared on his face, making him feel ashamed and embarrassed.
He coughed a little embarrassedly and said seriously:
"The general defeated the last general..., the last general..."
General Liu was a man in his forties. He was used to being rough and arrogant. He was also a military general and could not imitate Meng Li's refined rhetoric.
I don’t know how to go on.
Meng Li smiled and said:
"It doesn't matter."
General Liu was stunned again before he remembered and said:
"In order to give the general and soldiers a break, the general has already made preparations. The general will be exhausted after traveling a long distance. It is better for the general to rest for a while and then go out for a meal."
Just as Meng Li nodded, General Liu seemed to remember something and said:
"The general is a woman. If the general doesn't want to drink wine and eat meat in a dishonorable way like us men, it's understandable. Let me tell the general, and he will order someone to prepare food for the general alone."
Meng Li shook his head:
"I understand General Liu's good intentions. I will definitely be there when the time comes."
Lieutenant General Li next to him curled his lips.
He glanced at General Liu with disdain.
The guy who can't move when he sees a woman compliments her vigorously.
Ugh, that's so unmanly.
He remained silent.
Meng Li returned to the general's mansion in the city, took a bath, and then went to the camp. It was already evening. According to the order of official positions, Meng Li sat at the top.
Next to her stood Cinder.
General Liu, Vice General Li and some generals were sitting at the bottom, and a large number of people behind them were soldiers.
Large basins of meat and large pots of wine were served.
Meng Li took the lead in picking up a bowl of wine and stood up, and everyone also stood up.
Meng Li held the wine and channeled his spiritual power:
"This bowl of wine is dedicated to everyone here. It is your blood every time that can make the people live and work in peace and contentment. Your contribution is indispensable."
Her voice was clear and loud, reaching everyone's ears clearly.
Meng Li took the lead and drank the entire bowl of wine in one gulp. Everyone said:
"Thank you, General. This is our duty and mission. We will definitely live up to our mission and live up to the General."
Meng Li took the opportunity to say a few more words to encourage morale. Anyway, chicken soup for the soul was free of charge, so he boiled it for them.
By the end, most people were infected by Meng Li and became impassioned.
Even Vice General Li was infected by Meng Li and couldn't help but be moved.
Meng Li finally got to the point:
"We all have wives and children at home, and we all hope that our wives, children, and children at home are safe and well when we are marching outside. The same is true for the people on the border. They are also human beings. They need your protection to avoid being robbed and bullied. .”
"If it's serious, the barbarians are brutal and ambitious, and everyone doesn't work hard, is lax, passive, and fails to guard the border, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"The consequence is that the barbarians are not satisfied with the border city. They want to go deep into it. There are your wives, sons, daughters, fathers and mothers there."
"So no matter from the family or the country, everyone should do their best to jointly resist and repel the barbarians, showing the power of the great relatives, which is also the best way to protect their families."
After Meng Li finished speaking, she put away her spiritual energy and glanced sharply at the dark soldiers in the camp. These soldiers were all brought by her from the capital.
Anyway, what should be said should be said. It is best to have the best effect. If it doesn’t, don’t force it.
