May you live in peace

After a few days of recuperation in the barracks, Gao Shan was notified by Wei Hao to go to the infantry barracks as a guard for the left army.In principle, she was the captain of the guard under General Zuo Jun, but she found that she was assigned to take charge of the account every day, and she was actually the princess's guard.

"Shanzi, are you going to the battlefield this time?" Li Da looked at Gao Shan who was sitting beside him, and got him a glass of water.There is no drill this afternoon, and it is rare for the soldiers of each army to have a leisure afternoon.Both Li Da and Gao Shan were transferred to the Chinese Army, so they were able to see each other frequently.

"of course."

Li Da watched Gao Shan take a sip of tea, looked at his right shoulder, and heard that the injury was still a little serious last time.Seeing Li Da's serious expression, Gao Shan smiled.

"Take care of yourself on the battlefield, don't worry about me. I'm in front of the guard now, and it's fine to protect General Ma on the battlefield, and I won't rush forward like before. It's nothing serious."

Li Da looked at the slightly cheerful Gao Shan. He knew that although this man was not good at speaking in front of strangers, he was also a caring person who silently cared about the people around him.

Li Da also smiled at him. His complexion was a bit dark, his hair was thick, his eyes narrowed when he smiled, and his high nose bridge made him look a bit simple and honest.

"Shanzi, we all have to go back alive, as well as Liu Han, Uncle Kan and Uncle Lin, we all have to take military exploits and be heroes."

Gao Shan looked at this young man, she knew that he had a past that she didn't want to talk about, and she also knew that he was actually quite positive.Nod your head as a promise.

"The country here is actually quite quiet. If the world is peaceful and there is no war, I would like to come back here again."

Looking up at the sky of the border country, white clouds drift slowly, occasionally swallows fly overhead, the turf of the grassland always floats in the air with the sweetness of the land.Listening to Li Da's slow words.She likes An Sheng and likes a peaceful life.Even though she had been begging, she had never had any big goals or wanted to get anything. She actually liked the ordinary days very much.

The two did not chat, but looked at the sky not far away. Does this occasional tranquility indicate the coming wind and rain?

"Gao Shan, General Fan summoned you." A soldier who came not far away called the two of them, Li Da looked at the soldier with some doubts, why did General Fan seek Shan Zi?

Gao Shan stood up, patted Li Da, told him to go back first, and followed the soldiers to General Fan's camp.

General Zhenbei was sitting on a high position, looking at the military book, and sitting under the table was Ma Zhengyi, General of the Left Army.

"This subordinate has seen General Zhenbei and General Ma."

Fan Yu raised his head, looked at Gao Shan who was standing below, his body was thin but his back was straight, and he nodded.

"You don't need to be too polite, I want to meet you a long time ago. I heard that you were famous for your military exploits when you were in the former army. Captain Wei wanted to promote you. He often mentioned you by my side, saying that you have courage."

"Don't dare."

Fan Yu looked at this young man, his expression was calm and not happy, it seemed that he really had a city like Wei Hao said.

"Justice has a quick temper. I see that although you are weak, you are still a little calm. Although you are only the left guard now, I heard that the first news about Wuliang's rebellion came from you last time. The army under Zhengyi is not Be wary, and you can talk to him about the military now and then."

When General Zuojun heard Fan Yu mentioning himself, he couldn't help but blush, looked at the person standing not far away, and couldn't help coughing to cover it up.

"Thank you for the compliment, General, the subordinates dare not go beyond their duties."

"Actually, it doesn't matter. The military is not too strict. I know that I am reckless, but I have heard people say that although you come from a humble background, you are also a person with courage and ideas. Now that you are working under me, you don't have to worry about it too much." I am too cautious, if there is a good strategy, I will naturally listen to it."

Seeing the sincerity in the two generals' words, Gao Shan said 'yes'.

"Gao Shan, do your job well, and occasionally walk around in the army. If you don't understand or are in trouble, you can also ask the generals of other armies. General Hu is good at martial arts, you can also ask for advice. You are too thin, although I heard people say that you have extraordinary shots, but you were also injured a lot last time."

After Fan Yu finished speaking, he also took out his belongings and gave them to Gao Shan, which meant Ma Zhengyi and her couldn't read it.

"Thank you, General." After Gao Shan took what was in Fan Yu's hand, General Zhenbei asked him to go down to the main tent tonight.Gao Shan bowed and slowly exited the camp gate.

"General." Ma Zhengyi watched Fan Yu staring at the curtain that was still slightly moving. The first time he saw him, he had a calm expression that he couldn't see.

Since the eldest princess came to the barracks, the general has started to study military books, but he is still easy-going and occasionally likes to drink or chat with them.However, Wuliang's rebellion last time did deal him a big blow. The person he cultivated, promoted, and even treated as a brother turned traitor under his nose, and even sent someone to assassinate the eldest princess.It doesn't matter if Fan Yu is foolish and loyal, or something else, although he is not well-educated, he is really loyal to the eldest princess, but he also knows that Wu Liang's rebellion will not be as simple as it appears on the surface.

"Justice, you and Wu Liang used to be the people I valued the most. Zhang Hui'an, I never doubted him, but I also know that he doesn't like to compare, and he doesn't have any ambitions. He has always treated him like a cousin. Zhenbei and I was originally from the same town, and I grew up together, joined the army, and even tried my best for the safety of the border country all my life. However, I found that it is not, it is not what I thought, everyone is a brother of the same family."

"General." Ma Zhengyi looked at Fan Yu with a sad expression. He hadn't seen such an expression for many years.The general who has always been optimistic will also make a decision he does not want to make in the second half of his life.

"Wu Liang, the right army, and the battle. I don't know if they will be the same as me. Maybe they don't just follow the command of one person. But now, I just want to follow my own heart and find someone who can truly The leader who fulfilled my wish back then, do you understand what I mean?"

Ma Zhengyi looked at the determination in Fan Yu's eyes. How long has it been since he saw such a serious expression?This is not the reason why I followed him back then.

"I understand. Although I am dull, I also know that this heart has always defended the frontier country for the common people, and I also know what people and things should really be protected."

Fan Yu nodded, looking at the clear border, the sky was as clear as blue.This battle heralded the decisive battle between Beidi and Hao Guo, and it was also a battle he was about to prepare for his own decision.

Late at night, the main account.

Gao Shan looked at Yin Xi who was standing in front of him, staring at the huge hanging map and thinking.The sand table next to it is filled with flags of various colors, as well as marked routes, plank roads and formations.

Gao Jianping went to the Huben camp, this is the army dispatched by the eldest princess, it was mobilized from the Imperial City of Kyoto for this battle, and arrived at the barracks with General Huben Zhonglang at noon today.

But Gao Shan stayed outside because he was transferred to guard.Gao Jianping asked her to guard the main tent and not allow anyone to come in or out. In addition, the Eldest Princess didn't bring any servants in the barracks, so all the expenses were supplied by the soldiers of the army.That's why she was asked to bring the dinner in. After she entered, when she was about to leave, Yin Xi called her. Until now, she has been standing here for almost half an hour.Seeing that Yin Xi was so absorbed in thinking about strategy that he forgot to eat, he couldn't help worrying.

"The mountain road in Youzhou is narrow, which is not conducive to traffic. Although the news that the Yanyun area has surrendered, it will inevitably outflank Beidi from the rear with our army. However, Jiguan and the surrounding Youzhou Shanggu and Liaobei area are The most fortified place in Beidi, the local gentry did not dare to make a scene blatantly, they could only count on Hao Guo's army to capture Jiguan and fight with Beidi's army in the area of ​​Shangyuan before taking the opportunity to attack their main city."

Yin Xi pointed to Jiguan and Shanggu on the map, separated by a plain. The terrain here is vast. Even if Jiguan is captured, fighting Beidi here will not be advantageous. Yes, such a fight would inevitably lead to increased losses for the army, and her goal was to exchange a small sacrifice for a big victory.

"Where is this?" Gao Shan pointed to the circled area on the sand table, which was a small area, but it should be located on the mountain.

"The place where the spies came out not long ago, Beidi's grain and grass camp, was built in the valley of Youshan." Yin Xi looked at Gaoshan with a serious expression, walked towards him, saw the place he was pointing at, but frowned replied.

"Why not sneak attack?"

"The mountain road leading to here is the narrowest. There is a section of the road that even one person cannot pass through. Even if you walk sideways, you may fall off the cliff and be smashed to pieces. The palace has sent people to investigate the area many times to see if they can What was dug out, even though we found this hidden and extremely deep food and grass camp, but we couldn’t send troops to attack, the lineup of the army is bound to attract the attention of these people.”

"How many Beidi soldiers are stationed here?"

"Five thousand."

"You don't need to send troops." Gao Shan looked at Yin Xi with deep eyes.Yin Xi looked at his expression, and asked him with a smile what he could do.

"Send 300 men dressed as woodcutters and bandits in light clothes to circumvent this natural danger and choose the farthest road. The Beidi soldiers here should be careless. Advance quickly from the back mountain and lie in ambush above the canyon. Although they chose the canyon, which is close to the water source. However, the narrowness of the place is not conducive to the deployment of the army. When the time comes, let these people attack with fire, and they will definitely be able to take advantage of their panic and wipe them all out."

Yin Xi's smile widened. Although Gao Shan's strategy was not very reasonable and perfect, she came up with a way to let the soldiers pretend to be bandits and woodcutters.Although she thought of relying on the narrow terrain of the canyon to attack with fire, she kept thinking about how to let these soldiers enter the mountain without being discovered and approach the canyon smoothly, but this kid came up with a method, and she had the same strategy as her , really has potential.

"Once the Grain and Grass Camp is captured, the supply to Beidi's front line will be cut off. And Shanggu or Jiguan, which are the closest to the canyon, must send troops to support them, so that they can attack when their morale is unstable."

Yin Xi nodded, walked up to the main seat, picked up a pen to write and draw on the paper, and called his cronies to pass it on to Fan Yu and Hu Zhenbei.Gao Shan saw that Yin Xi was too busy to take care of his own body, took the porridge and side dishes that had been heated once, and put them in front of Yin Xi, but seeing her staring at the porridge bowl with a puzzled expression, Gao Shan couldn't help but said.

"No matter how busy the eldest princess is, she should pay attention to her body. She should eat three meals a day regularly, otherwise it will be bad for her stomach."

Yin Xi smiled, "This sentence should be told to you. You should be weak, but not strong. I heard that your life was not good before, and you didn't care about your body?"

The bowl in front of her moved forward again, Yin Xi saw her stubbornness, picked up the bowl and tasted lightly.

Gao Shan saw that Yin Xi's movements were elegant, with an innate temperament. Although her face was not mature, and her oval face made her more aura, the noble image of the royal family made her express vividly.

"The three meals a day in the army are fixed, so you don't have to worry about being hungry."

"Pfft." Yin Xi laughed softly, seeing Gao Shan's face turned red, she couldn't help laughing at his cute contrast.

"It's not early today, you should go back to the camp and rest, someone will guard my palace later."

Seeing the figure of Gao Jianping walking towards her not far away, Yin Xi asked Gao Shan to go down to rest. After all, not only did he inform Fan Yu and Hu Zhenbei to be prepared for what happened tonight, Gao Jianping and Han Tan also had to make sure everything was safe.

"Yes."

Seeing Gao Shan leaving, Gao Jianping stepped forward and saluted, "Eldest Princess, everything has been arranged properly. Han Tan has already divided Huben into two teams as the left and right wings."

Yin Xi moved the bowl away and sat up straight, "How is Wuliang?"

"The pigeon was stopped by Beidi that night. According to the report of the spies, all the three thousand soldiers brought by Wuliang were under Beidi's control. Wuliang is also being secretly guarded by Beidi's soldiers and has not been reused. Not long ago, it was captured by Yi Del sent the prairie and was not a threat."

"Hmm. What's going on over there?"

Gao Jianping saw that Yin Xi's eyes were deep, and her brows that seemed to be smiling but not smiling showed that she was in a good mood now.

"There was no sound. The shopkeeper of the teahouse committed suicide in prison. All the people involved were dealt with secretly, and even the corpse was never found. And the teahouse was burned down the night before. When I went to investigate, all traces were wiped clean."

"Heh, this speed is so fast and ruthless, it really looks like him."

"Eldest princess." Gao Jianping's eyes were complicated.

"It's okay, I'm used to it, as long as Luo Er is fine, it doesn't matter what he does."

Yin Xi changed the topic, "This battle must be fought as soon as possible. Bahrain has united more than a dozen tribes, and the deployment is basically ready, just waiting for our actions."

"The Yanyun area has already started to move. The former General Wulu's son Wang Che has led the formed rebel army to capture Xiliao. It is estimated that Shanggu, which is the closest to here, will send reinforcements tomorrow. We can take this opportunity to capture Jiguan .”

Yin Xi shook her head, got up and took the rice paper placed on the cabinet.

"This is also the last battle I intend to fight with Beidi. Since this is the case, I will let the world know Beidi's crimes and arrogance. I, Hao Guoxing, am not trying to joke with Beidi, but for me, Hao Guo The land and compatriots who were once taken away by this group of Di people will ask them for their crimes. In this case, we will send a letter of war to Beidi, and let them lose as a matter of course, so that they will never set foot on the land of Hao Guo."

Gao Jianping raised his head suddenly and saw Yin Xi who was in the main seat. Her expression was indifferent but majestic.After receiving the letter of war in Yin Xi's hand, looking at the eloquent nearly [-]-character proclamation, after carefully putting it away, he said "receive the order" and walked outside the curtain.

Yin Xi stood at the door and looked at the brightly lit barracks. This battle will not last long.

The author has something to say: the battlefield will be over in about three chapters, and it's time to go back to the palace to recruit a son-in-law.
