And the state, under the rule of Jiuyuan County, there is an unknown small village, there are only more than 30 households in the village, a total of 180 people, this village is formed by the military and civilians of the border, Jiuyuan County is vast and sparsely populated, so the village is far away from the other villages, self-sufficient on weekdays, less than the outside world communication.

There is a family in the village, surnamed Wang, the father's name is Wang Yan, the official school captain, with a daughter, the mother gave birth to her and died, but Wang Wei did not continue the string, just such a person pulled the child up, and the daughter was all loved and good, until the daughter was four years old, the daughter was named Shan.

Now, Wang Shan is twenty-eight years old, and she was born with a beautiful face. On this day, Wang Shan helped his father tidy up and wash the war horse at home, while Wang Yan sat in the yard drinking wine and sighed, Wang Shan knew why his father sighed, but he didn't dare to say more, for fear that his father would be more uncomfortable, so he could only silently wash the war horse and put on the saddle.

Wang Yan drank some wine, looked at her daughter's back in a daze, and suddenly said,

"Big sister, tomorrow...... I'll leave, you are home alone, be vigilant, if there is anything, go to the aunt next door, I will say hello to her family, because my father is not at home, you have to take care of yourself, don't be hungry. ”

"Got it, Daddy, don't worry, I'll take care of the house, it's just ...... Daddy, can you not go? The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, in case ...... Daddy has a missed ......," Wang Yan scolded angrily

"Bastard! What do you know? It is natural for a husband to protect his family and defend the country! Otherwise, how could the father come to this bitter cold place? Wang Shan was startled, she had never been yelled at by Wang Yan, and tears came out of her eyes

"Daddy! The daughter is afraid of Daddy...... In the future, how will my daughter live? As long as Daddy promises his daughter to come back safely. Wang Yan also knew that her tone was a little heavy, and she couldn't help but comfort her

"Okay, eldest sister, my father promised you that I will come back safely, I haven't seen my eldest sister get married yet." As soon as he said this, Wang Shan's face turned red

"Daddy is bad! Ignore Daddy. After speaking, he was puzzled, slapped on the horse's buttocks, turned around and entered the inner room, the war horse snorted, walked to Wang Yan, and rubbed Wang Yan with his face, Wang Wei happily got up and touched the horse's mane, there was still an old horse lying in the stable, it was a little tasty, and stood up, walked to Wang Yan, and stared at Wang Yan with aggrieved eyes,

"Hehe, old man, I can't take you with me on this expedition, you remember to take care of my eldest sister at home, and wait for me to come back." Lao Ma listened to what Wang Yan said, nodded, as if he really understood.

Wang Yan's family has two horses, both of which are war horses, a jujube red horse, four years old this year, and a white old horse, already nine years old, is Wang Yan's early war horse, and now it is really an old man.

There was no book all night, and before dawn the next day, Wang Shan got up, took her father's drape, went to the outhouse to help her father put it on, and made breakfast again, and ate with her father.

"Daddy, remember that I will come back as soon as the war is over, and my daughter is still waiting at home! Remember to eat on time outside, don't forget when you're busy, don't drink alcohol in the army......" Wang Yan got on the horse, took the spear from her daughter's hand, and listened to her daughter's chatter, she couldn't help but feel a little reluctant, but she couldn't help but be a little reluctant, gritting her teeth, with tears in her eyes, and looking at Wang Shan with a smile

"Eldest sister, on your sixteenth birthday, my father can't come back," as she spoke, Wang Yan took out a dagger more than a foot long from her arms and handed it over,

"This is given to you by Daddy, remember to take care of yourself and wait for Daddy to come back!" After speaking, as soon as he pulled the reins,

"Drive!" And left. When Wang Shan saw Wang Yan leaving, she couldn't stop her tears, she was separated from her father for the first time when she was so old, no matter how strong a girl is, she is a girl after all.

The old horse watched Wang Shan crying, suddenly ran out of the stable, ran behind Wang Shan, bit Wang Shan's sleeve, pulled, saw Wang Shan looking at it, pointed to his back with his head, Wang Shan understood, gritted his teeth, and rode on the back of the old horse, the old horse sparsely roared, grabbed the door, and followed closely behind Wang Shan, but it was old and frail, and after less than five miles, it could no longer run, standing in place panting, Wang Shan touched its neck

"Let's go back." It then turned and walked back. You have to ask how a girl can ride a horse? The sons and daughters of Jiuyuan County are not as good as the daughters of the Central Plains family, and the soldiers and civilians on the border of Jiuyuan County, regardless of men and women, are all skilled in bows and horses, but the court only allows men to be soldiers, otherwise the women of Jiuyuan County will definitely let the men know, what is it called to be a woman and not let her eyebrows!

Wang Yan left and went to the Mobei grassland, just because Xianbei had a heart of disobedience, the court ordered that a large army be sent to Xianbei for an expedition.
