453. Rich and powerful

When he just came back from Beiliang, no one from He Mulan's mansion came to visit, because they were all waiting and watching the attitudes of all parties, and after Rouran went south, the eldest grandson Daosheng asked He Mulan to be the forward general, but after being strongly opposed by Tuoba Huang, the forces that had been watching from many sides were let go.

I don't know if it's sympathy or something else, anyway, He Mulan herself doesn't know why she can't go out on the expedition but becomes popular, there is a big chaos outside, but there is still an endless stream of visitors to the Hua family.

"Mulan, do you think we should avoid it too?" The Yuan family is the least courageous, her maiden family was destroyed during the First World War in Yunzhong, and the cousins of the Hua family are the same, so when she heard that Rouran was coming, she couldn't sleep at night.

"Many families in the city have taken refuge to the south and west, and I heard that there are no cars in the carriage and horse dealerships now, and many families rent horse-drawn carriages to others for five times the price before......

"Don't make trouble, although the Great Khan is not here, the little prince has not run, I am a Xianbei soldier, even if the worms are really defeated, I must fight to the death with the worms!"

Father Hua suddenly became excited.

"Mulan, do you think so too?"

He Mulan looked at the flower father who was like chicken blood, and then looked at the frightened Yuan family, and nodded silently.

"I am General Huwei, and the Tiger Army is the king's division, so naturally I can't go. Mother, you have to worry about it, I can think of sending you out, but ......"

"Then forget it, if your grandfather doesn't leave, you don't leave, where am I going?" The Mother shook her head. "I'm not going anywhere, family, let's die together. Before you went to Montenegro, I was scared every day, and at that time I thought, it is better to die together, and the province will suffer that kind of torture. Now that you're in front of me every day, how can I go? ”

"You old woman, what are you talking about! My Great Wei army is invincible in the world, how can I let the creep come down! It's unfounded! ”

Father Hua couldn't listen to the slightest unlucky, if it weren't for his bad legs and feet, he would have jumped up.

"Okay, good, don't say it, don't say it. There is still a confinement person at home, and now I can't go. Hua Mu thought of Mrs. He in the main courtyard, and suddenly changed the topic: "Oh, there is still soup stewed on the stove!" I've been so busy these days that I almost forgot about it, and I have to have someone bring it to her! ”

She walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, turned her head and said to everyone: "By the way, she doesn't know about the chaos yet, she is weak now, she can't be frightened, none of you are allowed to say it!" ”

"Okay, good, don't say it, don't say it!"

Maybe He Mulan doesn't look like a woman at all, and it has been many, many years since the eldest daughter got married, and Yuan's full maternal love poured out on Mrs. He.

Since knowing that Mrs. He was born in the He Lai clan, her father and mother have become close to her. The two families said that their ancestors were old, and they were still the main family, and He Mulan was taken care of by the eldest of the He Lai family in the court, even if the "extremely vicious" in the main room really killed people, the Hua family with a strong sense of justice still protected her to the end.

In this way, Mrs. He, who concealed her true identity, was a little unhappy.

"Where's Muto?"

He Mulan glanced inside the room.

"Why is it gone?"

"I asked him to go to the small school to practice martial arts with Chen Jie." Father Hua shook his head when he thought of his son. "You and I are both people who don't lose their face, and they have the name of 'warrior', but they are not good at martial arts, and they are also tricks on people."

'The first time I killed someone, I couldn't do it, and I was trampled to death by a horse. ’

He Mulan sighed in his heart, probably able to understand Father Hua's worries.

She is the famous "General Huwei", and she killed Da Tan, if her brother really falls into the hands of the Rouran people, it will definitely not end well.

In order to cultivate Hua Mutuo's courage, Hua's father let him come by killing chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep at home, so he was still trembling.

Some people are born with a fear of blood, and some people are born with a fear of the dead, which is nature and is difficult to change.

"Don't push him too hard."

He Mulan softly persuaded the flower father.

"I'm here."

"If only my leg wasn't broken." Father Hua tapped his knee complainingly. "If the leg wasn't broken, where would there be so much going on!"

He Mulan was hesitating about how to persuade Hua's father, when he heard another report from his family outside.

"Hou Houye's house is here! Dugu Langjun also came to ask to see! ”

Several Lang Jun and Dugu Nuo from Lu Lu Yuan's Mansion came.

"What are they coming for? Isn't Dugunuo waiting to be a father? ”

He Mulan is a little strange, but there are many people who have come to show favor in the past few days, Dugu Nuo and a few sons of the Lu family who are neighbors have a good personal relationship with He Mulan, and when they heard that they were coming, He Mulan immediately dressed up and went out to meet them.

"General Hua, don't think that we are inflammatory, we don't dare to come to the door when you come back, because we are afraid of causing you trouble."

Seeing the ceremony brought them in, Dugu Nuo, who had the most bold personality, said with a smile: "At that time, there was an accident in Beiliang, and we all belonged to the military faction, if we all came to visit, I was afraid that others would think too much." ”

"I understand."

In fact, Hermulan didn't care if they came or not. She was originally from a pure minister, but she didn't come but had clean ears.

"What kind of wind is blowing you here today?"

"Hey, don't you know now?"

Dugu Nuo saw that He Mulan didn't have any news at all, and couldn't help but glance at each other with the brothers of the Lu family, and when he saw He Mulan again, he still looked confused and coughed.

"When the eldest grandson Sikong was leaving, he asked the prince for an order, if it is not good for the Rouran war, he will immediately summon you into the army, and His Royal Highness has already agreed. Your Tiger Army is not large enough, so you have to go elsewhere to draw ......."

This kind of thing is a radish and a pit, once it is transferred, it may be the official generals and soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army in the future, many children who do not have the right to inherit want to mix military merits in the army, but the Yulin Army is a candidate picked out by Tuoba Tao, and the Tiger Ben Army is a real elite of Montenegro, and there must be a chance to enter.

As the young general that Tuoba Tao attaches the most importance to, there is now news that Tuoba Huang is reluctant to leave because he believes that He Mulan can guard the palace well, and others are not at ease, making many people think that although the Tiger Ben Army is the power of Beiliang, Jun's grace is not reduced, and it will still be one of the elites of Wei in the future.

And He Mulan, who is the left Sima, is the only commander of the Tiger Army who can select generals when the right Sima Yuan is absent and Tuoba Tao is missing.

"It's been a long time, you all came by Mao Sui, and what you said is too vague......" He Mullan suddenly realized at this time.

"What? You all want to come to Huben? ”

"If the general is useful, go directly to Dugu's house to deliver the post, I will immediately lead the soldiers to invest in the future, you don't have to worry about the food, I will bring it myself!"

Dugunuo smiled with a mouthful of big white teeth.

"How's that, is it a good deal?"

"The Tiger Ben Army is now short of more than 2,000 people...... "He Mulan smiled, "If the Rouran people really want to come in, do you have 2,000 people to fill in?" If I can't fill it, I still have to go to the army. ”

The Northern Wei Dynasty managed the army very extensively, the military household was the basic, and the family private soldiers were elite and private soldiers, and both sides had military merits in joining the army, but the family private soldiers were recorded in the head of the family or general who led the private soldiers.

As far as the generals of the Wei State are concerned, they actually prefer to lead military households, because the military merits of military households in the army are counted on the commander, but the military households are not even, and He Mullan raised a team of 1,000 people back then and went bankrupt to set horses, which shows how convenient it is to directly bring private soldiers.

It can be regarded as a gain and a loss, but if you really want to calculate it, He Mulan agrees to use the children of the Xianbei powerful family, which will definitely be beneficial to the improvement of his own network, and he can also immediately get an elite soldier who can go to the battlefield without training.

The risk is that the private soldiers only listen to their commanders, and will not necessarily obey the commands of Mullan, unless Mullin has absolute control over these "commanders".

"I don't have that many, but there are a lot of people who are willing to come." Dugu Nuo stretched out his hand and counted it to her: "The brothers of the Wei Chi family, me, the Lu family, and many Han people with five surnames who have practiced martial arts since childhood and don't want to enter the imperial court, so if you count it, not to mention two thousand, I can bring you five thousand people." ”

As soon as Dugu Nuo finished speaking, the brothers of the Lu family immediately raised their eyes to look at He Mulan.

"How about it, General, yes, yes?"

He Mulan was amused by them: "Don't say that Sikong may not necessarily lose ahead, even if Sikong wants to use me to order me to go, I must first be familiar with the familiar people before I can go, you are here like this, you want to bring me a group of unusable ......"

"Yes, yes, yes! Otherwise, why would our parents want us to come...... Yes! ”

Dugu Nuo glanced at the Lu family Qilang who beat him.

"What are you hitting me for?"

The Lu family was about to be angry with the straightforward Dugu Nuo, and when they saw He Mulan looking at them with a smile, they had to pour beans into the bamboo tube and say clean.

"After the news came out, we were all moved, and we wanted to follow the path of the elders in the family to come to you. It's just that General Hua lives in a simple house on weekdays, and he doesn't have any friendship with us people, and those who have friendship are 108,000 miles away......"

Lu Qilang said embarrassedly: "The general may not know that even the doors of several families have been stepped on, just because the youngest sons of several families are friends with the general." ”

He Mullan nodded.

There were indeed many people who visited before, and they were all people who needed to be respectfully received, but they were vague, and He Mulan couldn't understand those twists and turns, so they were all sent away relatively wordlessly.

Yuan Fang was left in the camp of the Huben Army to be responsible for preparing and recording military exploits and other things, and he was not in Huafu at all, and there was no one to discuss.

"Our grandfather was stricter and didn't want to dredge it up for us, so he only asked us to figure it out by ourselves, but promised us that if we could enter the Tiger Army, he would give us three hundred private soldiers in our family, all of whom were young or veterans who knew martial arts, and brought their own armor and war horses......"

Lu Jiaqilang pointed at Dugu Nuo.

"I went to him and he said......"

"What's so hard about that? Come with me to find the flower general! ”

Lu Jiulang pinched his nose and learned to speak Dugunuo.

He Mulan really amused this group of young people with joy and sorrow.

The good thing is that her ability is recognized by everyone after all, and the sad thing is that if many people have such thoughts, then she will definitely offend some people.

Unless her Tiger Ben Army can accommodate so many children to join.

"If General Hua is worried that our people are incompetent, or do not listen to your command, starting tomorrow, we will take the soldiers of our family and the general to the Tiger Ben Army for training, so that the general can see our ability......"

The so-called newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and people outside are panicking, but these noble children all think that this is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and they can't wait for the worms to fight a little further south, so that they can meet the head-on blows, and flee in the wilderness, and pick up the first rank for military merit.

"I'll think about it first."

He Mullan didn't immediately agree to them.

"I haven't heard anything here, maybe the news you're getting is wrong?"

"How could it be wrong, it was from the eldest grandson's family and Cui Taichang...... Oops, what are you hitting me again! ”

Dugunuo glared angrily.

"If you hit me again, I'll turn my face!"

The Lu family rolled their eyes in unison.

It was still the young people who got along happily, a group of people talking and laughing, and finally the guests left with high expectations.

When he went out, Dugu Nuo was running into Langjun of the Yuwen family who was going to visit, and he was so angry that his nose crooked: "Why are you here?" ”

When the Yuwen family saw Dugunuo and the Lu family coming out of it, they knew that they had the same purpose, and they were secretly anxious, but because they were also friends with Dugunuo, they smiled and said: "Well, last time I fell into the water in the garden and was rescued by the general, don't you come to thank you!" ”

"It's been more than a year, thank you again?"

Dugunuo grimaced.

"If you want to turn around, you'll have to invite me to a drink!"

"Oh, you're so confident, it looks like you can do it?"

The Yuwen family was in a hurry.

"Hehe, I won't tell you, I'm going to take the armor soldiers directly to General Hua tomorrow...... Oops, Shichiro, why are you beating me again! ”

Lu Jiazhonglang: ...... We bite you to death believe it or not!

The youngest son of the Yuwen family knew that Dugu Nuo's brain was not very good, and he didn't laugh at him, but only teased that Dugu Nuo was too excited to be a father recently, so that some language confusion gave him a step down.

Dugu Nuo is the kind of person who can't understand the subtext, and he really thought that the Yuwen family was congratulating him, and scratched his head with a smile: "Yes, Jiuniang is so beautiful, the child she gave birth to must be also very beautiful, and with the blood of my Dugu family, boys and girls are my treasures." If it weren't for the sake of earning a future for the children, why would I take the risk of going to the Tiger Army......"

He was there and talked about a bunch of expectations for the child, and the poor Yuwen family had not yet married, so he couldn't stand it and hurriedly ran to find the door.

"Don't you go...... I'm not done yet......"

***

He Mulan sent away a bunch of "Gongzi Brothers" yesterday, and he really couldn't bear it, and the Tiger Ben Army didn't know how to practice in the past few days, so he left a message for the flower father and mother in the early morning and returned in the evening, and immediately drove the horse out of the city and went straight to the Tiger Ben military camp outside the city.

It's just that she and Na Luohun haven't even arrived at the outskirts of Beijing, and they have already discovered that something is wrong.

In the distance, the dust was billowing in the distance, and it seemed that many people and horses had run by, and the dust had not even sunk to the ground.

The weeds on both sides were dewless, and there was a lot of horse manure on the ground, and judging by all the clues, the number even exceeded that of their tiger army.

Enemies on the outskirts of Beijing?

How is it possible, and it didn't fly down from the sky!

"What's going on?"

Narahun jumped off his horse, picked up a piece of horse dung and rubbed it.

"It's still fresh, and it's only been half an hour."

He Mulan thought about it carefully, and probably had a guess in his heart, and his scalp suddenly went numb.

"It won't be what I thought it would be......"

"General?"

He Mulan frowned and looked behind him.

Is it too late to go back now?

"Not an enemy."

He Mullan sighed.

"Forget it, we'll have to face it sooner or later, let's go quickly."

Although Na Luo Hun didn't quite understand, he still nodded and followed He Mulan unconditionally.

Even if there was really a group of soft people waiting in front of him, he would not back down.

Sure enough, when He Mulan and Na Luohun arrived near the Huben camp, they saw people and horses of all colors and costumes forming several circles outside the Huben camp.

"What is this for, opening a martial arts conference?"

Hermulan's eyes widened in disbelief.

These seem to have come to the beauty pageant, and the war horses they rode were not variegated, everyone was brightly armoured, and there were even people who led a team of white horses of the same color, and He Mullan was ashamed of himself.

Looking at it closely, He Mulan felt that the banners of the several major families in Pingcheng seemed to have been occupied.

The Montenegrin army had all kinds of skinny horses and inferior horses back then, and the Lushuihu people were even more like refugees.

The horses of this group of people are really envious, jealous and hateful.

She even saw the Shining Night Light Armor!

It took her so many years to get a pair!

Longevity!

Seeing Hemulan's iconic Dawan good horse, a group of people immediately rode over.

"General Hua, you're here, brothers have been waiting for a long time!"

Dugu Nuo spoke from afar, complaining with some grievances.

"You Tiger Ben soldiers won't open the camp door for us!"

"Nonsense!"

He Mulan snorted angrily.

Such a large group of people, no matter how you look at it, it looks like they are here to smash the field!
