Facts have proved that it was a stroke of genius that Ruobao monitored the wells drilled by the engineers in advance.
Since the water source near Luoyueguan is groundwater, if you want to dig a well to impact Luoyueguan, the place where you dig the well must be very delicate.
There are not many such places. Although there are many mountains around Luoyue Pass, there is groundwater and there are very few places above Luoyue Pass. There are only two or three places in total.
Ruobao sent people to patrol around the road every day, and finally caught the person who wanted to blow up the mountains and flood the Luoyue Pass.
Everyone knew which faction the person who started to blow up the well belonged to, so they didn't point it out.
Due to Ruobao's outstanding record during the war and her various predictable first moves, her popularity in the army has increased. After all, every time there is a meeting, the slender figure of Ruobao standing among a group of men is really eye-catching. In addition, the weak treasure itself has superior conditions and looks beautiful, so it is even more out of control.
The soldiers of the Qi army may not know the name of their chief, but they have all heard that the strategist of the Houlu army is a gentle and beautiful woman who uses soldiers like a god. There is also a nickname, called "General Shenji".
The news that someone in the Qi army wanted to forcibly blow up the well quickly spread to Yin Jing, and then Mengbao's transfer order came down.
Most of the Qi army stationed outside Luoyue Pass retreated, and all the generals entered Beijing. Southwest King is no exception.
The retreat of the Qi army means that the Qi-Yan war will enter the later stage of "peace talks", but He Yunxiao feels very sorry.
Of course, it's not a pity for the peace talks, but a pity for Li Xiangjun's letter.
Counting the days, it was time for Li Xiangjun's letter to be sent back, but it was a pity that it did not arrive after all.
He Yunxiao thought for a while, maybe Li Xiangjun didn't intend to send him a letter at all. After all, she has no relationship with him and has nothing to do with him, and his soft words can't affect Qi Yan's peace talks. Waiting for her reply, the truth is self-indulgent.
Mengbao ordered the Qi army to retreat, and He Yunxiao's rear army was naturally on the list.
During ordinary marches, the heroines all fall in the middle and late stages of the marching queue. But this time the march was different, Ruobao and Youbao's carriage took the lead, walking in front of the whole team. But it was He Yunxiao's short sword army who opened the way in the front.
The Dagger Army is several times stronger than the Dagger Gang back then, not only in terms of force on paper, but also in terms of cohesion and execution.
Pang Jian is now the second-in-command of the Short Sword Army, and he understands the internal logic of "settling the second-in-command".
He was able to become the "Second Commander" not because of his Ninth-Rank cultivation, nor his status as an "old man of the Short Sword Gang", but because he was deeply trusted by He Yunxiao.
Pang Jian knew He Yunxiao's temper well. He doesn't care about your minor problems, as long as you don't touch his bottom line, everything will be fine. If you can serve the "bottom line" well, you will definitely get promoted and get rich. He Yunxiao's bottom line is also very simple, those beautiful girls.
Pang Jian's attitude towards He Yunxiao's "bottom line" is: don't ask, don't tell, don't know. Gossip is strictly prohibited within the Dagger Army. Although discussion is not allowed, the things that should be done must be done for Commander He.
For example, this time, He Yunxiao rarely let the heroines walk in front of the army, and Pang Jian thoughtfully went to the city in front of him to do some sorting.
Make sure that He Yunxiao has an independent and safe restaurant, and will not conflict with other generals who returned to Yin Jing and went to the city for the night.
In the middle of the night, He Yunxiao got up and slipped quietly to Youbao's room.
Jiang Wuyou looked at him in surprise. Logically speaking, he should be with Fan Ziruo now.
"Why is Mr. Xiang here?"
Sister Jiang is one of her own, so He Yunxiao said bluntly: "Your sister is useless."
Jiang Wuyou's cheeks were slightly flushed, she probably knew the level of the weak treasure, and it is reasonable to say that he wouldn't last until dawn, unless the husband was merciless.
"Is Xianggong..." Jiang Wuyou hesitated to speak.
He Yunxiao poured himself a cup of tea, "Don't talk about it, it's still some time before dawn, sleep a little longer?"
Before Jiang Wuyou could speak, the newly lit candle in her room went out again.
…
It was rare for Miss Bai not to practice kung fu tonight, and she suffered from insomnia silently all night.
Before dawn, she couldn't wait to let people boil water for a bath, and change all the clothes into new ones from the inside to the outside.
…
After days of trekking, He Yunxiao and others finally returned to Yin Jingcheng.
The army will be stationed in the counties and counties around Yinjing, and the generals will need to enter the city to "face the saint".
Naturally, there will be many state banquets to reward the generals, but it will not be held immediately as soon as He Yunxiao enters the city, at least he will have to wait until all the generals of the three armies arrive in Yinjing.
It is normal for an army of hundreds of thousands of people to march forward and backward for more than a hundred miles. More than a hundred miles is a one or two day journey.
Maybe Mengbao played a little tricky, He Yunxiao's back army was supposed to be in the back, but it turned out to be the first team to reach Yin Jing.
But He Yunxiao didn't run to the palace immediately, but took Jiang Wuyou home first.
At the gate of the Hou Mansion, the master and his wife stood side by side.
"Father, auntie." He Yunxiao said with a smile.
"Father, mother." Jiang Wuyou said following He Yunxiao.
"Yeah. Xian'er made your favorite food, so eat when you have nothing to do." After Wu Qinghou He Yuanhao finished speaking, he patted He Yunxiao on the shoulder, and then walked into the mansion.
Zhang Jingxian silently wiped away her tears.
"Auntie, why are you crying? Aren't I fine?" He Yunxiao said while supporting Zhang Jingxian.
"Auntie loves our family Wuyou very much." The beautiful woman refused to admit it.
"Mother, Wuyou is fine too." Jiang Wuyou said with a slight smile and tenderness.
"Good boy, did you feel wronged by fighting with He Yunxiao?"
"No. I'm not wronged."
"After returning home, you should continue to take the supplements you should take."
Jiang Wuyou's face flushed slightly. Of course she understood what Zhang Jingxian meant. This was after the "false pregnancy" was revealed, and she was urged to hurry up and get down to business.
"Mother, the young master hasn't married his first wife yet."
He Yunxiao got a headache when he heard the word "principal wife". He just came back and it was getting late, so he hurriedly said, "Auntie, auntie, let's eat dinner first."
After being separated for nearly half a year, the He family sat back at the familiar table at home.
A table full of dishes filled every corner of the table, not to mention chicken, duck, fish, and regular vegetables, He Yunxiao actually saw seafood on the table.
You must know that in ancient times, there was still an agricultural economy. The capital of a country was all inland, and the transportation was inconvenient, and it was difficult to keep fresh. Many people have never seen it in their lives, and it is very normal that they have never eaten seafood. However, if a mouthful of seafood wants to appear in Yin Jing, it will cost a lot and is worth a lot.
In any case, this table dish is really very hard.
He Yuanhao said: "You are marching and fighting outside, and you don't know how to write a letter home. Your aunt wanted to know about you, so she had to go to Dean Fan at the Antler Academy to inquire. However, Lao Fan has a good opinion of you. If it is offset, I won't scold you. Let's eat."
He Yunxiao heard it funny, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud.
Tsk tsk, if the old man wants to praise himself, he has to try his best to beat around the bush. It's really embarrassing for him.
