The rebirth of Jiangshan is hired

The days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye the date for the expedition arrived.Mu Qiu has already taken care of all the affairs at home, and is just waiting to go on the road with Song Zichen.Yi'er had already been sent to the palace to be raised by the emperor himself. Looking at the mansion that was almost an empty shell, Song Zichen couldn't help but chuckled and shook his head, looking at the man standing beside him with a sword : "Mu Qiu—you said that when he finds out that there is no one left in this mansion, what kind of anger will he be in?"

Mu Qiu's temperament has always been cautious, and he has never talked much.Hearing the words, he just lowered his head and smiled shallowly, and then said warmly: "Your Highness, you must be careful all the way here - after all, you are under the emperor's feet in Beijing, and he may not be too unscrupulous. But once you leave this capital , you don’t need to worry too much about what you want to do.”

"With you here, I still have some confidence in my heart."

Song Zichen looked at him for a long time before replying softly, and then tightened the cloak on his body: "It's getting cold, and you're not in good health. The border is bitterly cold, and you won't be able to return for a year or so after going there." , I'm confident that I can protect you in the army, but I'm afraid you won't be able to stand the climate over there... Don't always take care of me, just take good care of yourself, you know?"

Mu Qiu smiled faintly, but didn't respond, just nodded very lightly.Song Zichen pressed his thin shoulders again, and couldn't help but worry about whether such a thin body could support the heavy armor: "Take a carriage on the road and listen to me, okay?"

"Your Highness—Actually, I'm not that weak, so you don't have to worry too much, Your Highness."

Mu Qiu smiled helplessly, and replied warmly.Song Zichen just looked at him blindly, with such a stubborn expression that he could hardly bear to refute - he was not good at dealing with that person's attitude, since they first met.The child who was as lonely as a wolf cub handed him the pill, his expression was tense as if he was as indifferent and cruel as his elder brother, but his eyes glistened with almost aggrieved forbearance, calling out He couldn't even think of rejecting it.

He was also still young at that time, didn't know what that pill was, didn't know that he would be imprisoned in the abyss of darkness by such a pill for the rest of his life-but even though he knew all this later , as long as I think of the light in those eyes, I still can't feel even the slightest bit of resentment towards that person.

"Mu Qiu..."

Seeing his complexion that hadn't turned rosy these days, Song Zichen felt as if a boulder was being weighed heavily on his heart.He didn't know if Mu Qiu had something to hide from him, but no matter how he was nourished and recuperated these days, that person's body didn't seem to improve at all.

"Just this time—you listen to me, okay? I really can't let go..."

He had already sworn to himself secretly that he would never force Mu Qiu to do anything he didn't want to do again.But this time, no matter what, he dared not just tell that person to wear that icy heavy armor, and follow him to spend the night in Xiaoxing, and went all the way to the desolate and bitter Gobi Desert.

As long as he thinks of Mu Qiu in his previous life who couldn't stop vomiting blood in his arms, he will always find it difficult to calm down, for fear that if he fails to take care of him once, that person will disappear silently from his side again. up.

Song Zichen is not a person who is good at persuading people - he is a prince, and he is used to being decisive in the military camp and doing what he says, so he almost never needs to worry about how to persuade others to listen to his words.But Mu Qiu was different, he didn't want to give orders to that person, and he didn't want to see him forbearing and humble again, so no matter how difficult it was, he still made up his mind to let himself get used to this feeling, and never let that person People suffer a little bit of grievance.

"Actually—as long as His Highness asks, Mu Qiu will definitely obey."

There was a cool feeling between the brows suddenly, Song Zichen raised his head subconsciously, and met the man's warm and smiling gaze: "So your Highness don't have to be so distressed, always frowning like this, no matter how young you are, it is inevitable Prematurely decays."

Song Zichen didn't expect that the usually gentle and quiet person would say such a thing. He stared at him for a long while in surprise, and then he couldn't help laughing out loud, then coughed lightly and said in a serious tone: "Leave him alone before he grows old." So what about bad? I don't live by this face, and I will be content with having you by my side in the future."

It was the first time for Mu Qiu to hear him speak out his future plans so bluntly. He couldn't help being a little startled, his face turned red, and he lowered his head slightly in embarrassment: "Your Highness—everything you see is going to People who lead troops to fight, don't mess around like this..."

"As long as we're together all the time, I should still have plenty of opportunities to mess around."

There was a little smile in Song Zichen's eyes again. Seeing that there was no one around, he hugged him in his arms and kissed him lightly on the forehead: "Mu Qiu, as long as you are well, I will be fine in my heart." You can settle down and feel confident in everything you do... So you must be good too, don't worry me, okay?"

Mu Qiu was caught off guard by him and pulled into his arms, and subconsciously wanted to back away, but was pulled back involuntarily by those powerful arms.With just a slight movement, the strength on those arms became tighter.

The man held him stubbornly, and the breath on the side of his neck was slightly hot, as if there was a faint rush.Looking at the persistent light shining in those eyes, a place in the deepest part of Mu Qiu's heart seemed to move slightly. He lowered his eyes to suppress all the complicated light in his eyes, smiled and nodded slightly: " Alright, I will listen to Your Highness..."

There was still blood on his face, and his complexion seemed to have improved a lot.Song Zichen continued to gently kiss his forehead until the person in his arms was so embarrassed that his face was burning, and finally let him go with satisfaction: "Let's go, let's go to the army - wait for the father to encourage you!" After passing the whole army, we should set off."

The Qi Dynasty was peaceful for three generations of emperors, the people's livelihood was rich and the people were happy, and there had been no large-scale wars for many years.This is the first time in the past hundred years that the Huns have invaded the country. The court, which has been far away from the Iron Horse King for a long time, has become chaotic in a blink of an eye. If Song Zichen hadn't taken the initiative to stand up, those generals who didn't even know the military formation would not know how to shirk when.

Song Zichen didn't like to be fully clothed, but simply wore a light and thin armor with a precious sword bestowed by the emperor on his side.He didn't like to use a sword, he always felt that the sword's moves were too light and agile, but not strong enough, and it was better to use a long knife to be more cheerful and decisive.This saber was bestowed on him by his father before he left for the expedition, and it had been with him for almost his whole life in his previous life. It was finally captured by the elite soldiers he trained himself, and finally fell into Song Zixuan's hands.

Looking at the army formation that was still fairly neat, Song Zichen, who had long been accustomed to the iron army trained by him with an iron fist in later generations, couldn't help but sighed softly, handed the horse to the soldiers behind him, and walked to the man who didn't know where he was Beside someone who is out of his mind: "Mu Qiu, what are you thinking?"

"I'm thinking—the soldiers of this dynasty may indeed be a little weaker. If there is a tough battle, I'm afraid they will inevitably suffer losses."

Mu Qiu hesitated for a moment, but still responded softly, and looked at Song Zichen with more worry: "Your Highness needs to be extra careful to take such a team out."

"Aren't you ignorant of military affairs—can you tell?"

Song Zichen's eyes couldn't help but slightly brighten, and he looked at the people around him in surprise, and felt some unspeakable emotion in his heart.

In the eyes of the officials of the current dynasty, even his father, this army is well-organized and majestic. They wish they could be invincible when they go out to fight, and they can be invincible when they go out to fight a battle. Victory returns.

In his previous life, he once firmly believed in this way, but he was given a severe blow by the Huns in the first battle - that battle almost wiped out [-]% of the army in his hands, and he himself suffered a lot If it weren't for the timely dispatch later, the Huns would have almost driven straight into the border and breached the border.It was he who led the charge with his lifeless axis strength and held the border for two months. By luck, he caught up with the infighting of the Xiongnu tribe and Khan was killed, taking the opportunity to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. White earned a big victory.

With the lesson learned this time, after he returned to Beijing, he began to ruthlessly rectify the army that was useless.Because the methods were too harsh and ruthless, it also provoked a lot of impeachment and resentment.At that time, he didn't know how to care about anything. There were complaints from inside and outside the Ming and Ming Dynasty, and he never paid much attention to it.In this way, an iron army that could finally be regarded as invincible and invincible was trained, but it was this iron army that completely cut off his way of life in the end.

"I can somewhat feel that today's army is not lacking in momentum, but it is strong on the outside - just like a martial arts practitioner. They only have a kung fu practice, but they have no internal strength. It's okay to bluff people. When you meet a real master But it is inevitable that you will suffer.”

Mu Qiu thought about it and answered slowly, looking at Song Zichen's dignified expression, he couldn't help but whispered: "Your Highness... But what's wrong with what I said?"

"No—I was just thinking, it's a pity that you don't study military."

Song Zichen shook his head and smiled helplessly, and walked slowly forward with him, and after a while he asked tentatively: "Mu Qiu, if—— I know you can't disobey your father's order, but if you come With this army going out, do you have any way...to prevent them from losing too badly in the first battle?"
