Chapter 254: Becoming Famous
He Mulan's injuries were slightly better, so he set off with his own soldiers Mangu, Chen Jie, and Ashan Zhiqi.
"General, let's go back to the Black Mountain camp first, shall we?"
Chen Jie saw the long-lost Black Mountain camp from afar, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of belonging in his heart, and he couldn't wait to go back and see it immediately.
He Mulan's expression on the horse was resolute, not smiling, only looked at the sky, and then shook his head: "No, I have other plans, I can't delay on the road, stay in Black Mountain City today, and continue to hurry tomorrow." ”
At this time, He Mulan and his party were on the way to Pingcheng and wait for the reward.
He Mulan was wounded and Yan zhòng, and by the time he was able to go to the ground, the Wei army had already won a great victory, and he went to Montenegro with Tuoba Tao and gave the soldiers the class he had obtained.
Most of the rewards in the Montenegrin camp are ordinary soldiers, such as He Mulan, Su Hejun and other heroes who have made great contributions, but they should be solemnly rewarded in the court, so after the victory, Tuoba Tao gave an edict to He Mulan and the Tiger Benjun who were still in the king's tent to recuperate, and the Tiger Ben army returned to the Montenegrin camp to accept the reward, and He Mulan could recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, and then go to Pingcheng to receive the reward.
This is the supreme glory, everyone is envious, but He Mulan has no joy or sorrow, accepts the grace, thanks the grace, and really recupers the wounds on his body with peace of mind.
Replaced by others, even if he was really seriously injured, for the sake of reward and this glory, he had to go to Pingcheng with his crippled body, but He Mulan recuperated his injuries for more than a month, until Tuoba Tao had finished the reward in Montenegro and led his troops back to the south, and then went to Pingcheng with his relatives and confidants.
Ah Dan Zhiqi and others originally wanted to catch up with the imperial army on the road, but He Mulan said that he had "other plans" and hurried again and again, and now it was only a few days away from Emperor Wei's camp, but she did not show that she was catching up, but continued to go south.
However, since Hua Sheng's death, He Mulan has become more and more obscure, and her momentum is more amazing than before, and familiar friends such as Shan Zhiqi have not been able to open her heart, let alone Chen Jie and others.
She will give an order, and everyone can only obey orders. In the puzzled looks of the former comrades of Montenegro, they passed through the Montenegrin camp and went straight to Montenegrin City.
During the period when He Mulan and Adan Zhiqi and others were recuperating from their injuries, Tuoba Tao returned victoriously in the expedition to Mobei, and almost did not use any sword soldiers, so that Mobei Gaoche and Rouran surrendered one after another.
Among them, Di Yefei, as a deputy envoy, and Cui Hao persuaded the Mobei Gaoche clan to surrender, and the Gaoche clan fought back and surrounded Mobei Rouran, which made the people of Wei talk about it.
His own children did not go to death, and they won a big victory without causing too much loss, which is naturally a gratifying thing, and the fact that Di Yefei sent a high car from the camp in Montenegro has also become a story after tea and dinner in the streets and alleys, and the more it spreads, the more outrageous it becomes.
Even Di Yefei's beauty was gradually known by word of mouth among the sergeants.
Among them, the most legendary are the two newly rising young celebrities of the Black Mountain Battalion, "Flying Eagle" Kumoti and "Tiger Wei" Mulan.
It is normal for Mulan and Kumoti's names to be louder than Di Yefei, because Mulan is the enemy of the Wei people, the "Ghost Fang", and the warrior who cut off the head of the Creeping Khan alive in the enemy camp.
Xianbei people admired warriors, and the Han people in Wei were influenced by the Hudi folk customs in the north, and they were also quite brave and strong, and admired the "strong".
Kumoti will be famous, because of the Mobei War, he used 8,000 eagles to raise an army against 50,000 Mobei tribes, not only won a complete victory, but also personally shot the general of Goryeo, who saw that battle, all said that he "used soldiers like a god", but he himself said "I will use troops like this, all inspired by the battle of Hua Mulan's life and capture of ghosts", in his words, it is a pity for Hua Mulan who did not participate in the war.
The other generals, when they mentioned Mulan who did not participate in the war, they were also regretful, in their inference, if Mulan was not injured and conquered Mobei with them, it must be easy to subdue the troops.
At least in the feast where the Mobei troops and the Wei army competed later, it would be as difficult for their Wei army to win.
Tuobati is the Xianbei clan, the king of Yingchuan who is straightforward, and his father is Tuoba Yao, the king of Henan of the three armies of Weizhen, whether in the army or in the court, Tuobati (Kumoti) has a lot of status, he and other generals praise Mulan so much, and Mulan's reputation is getting louder and louder.
What's even more terrifying is that such a general who can write and martial arts is only twenty years old now, and in a few years, Hua Mulan will have more experience in warfare, and it is impossible to say that Wei will have another famous general like Changsun Han.
Since ancient times, beauties have been rare, and famous generals are even more rare, and those who can be called "famous generals" can't be beaten by light. This Mulan's wisdom and talent have obviously been recognized by everyone.
In ancient times, there was no entertainment, the life of the people was boring, the people were generally illiterate, and an ordinary thing could be spread very exaggeratedly, not to mention a few wars that were not ordinary in the first place. The stories of General Huwei, General Yingyang, and the Beauty Messenger gradually spread, especially in the six northern towns, and it was the intention of becoming famous overnight.
What makes all the ladies even more excited is that none of these three generals have married wives, which is enough to make people reverie.
Coupled with the appearance of these two people, it is rumored that one is heroic and extraordinary, and the other is very good-looking, and it has attracted countless women who are eager to see their true faces.
It's a pity that the most famous Hua Mulan doesn't have a legendary background, and she seems to be ordinary, just born with divine powers, so men worship him a lot, and young people and poor children are even more idols, but women don't pay much attention to it.
What's more, the general vaguely rumored that the family had already been engaged, and the Xianbei people got married early, and having such a reputation, even a little bit was enough to discourage those women who admired heroes.
Even if it's a fantasy, you have to fantasize about being handsome, isn't it?
"Do you think that since Huo Chang recovered from his injury, he has become more and more ......" Ah Dan Zhiqi thought for a while, and used a more neutral word, "More and more 'cold'?" ”
His voice was small, and Hermulan rode her shadow before everyone else, so he wasn't afraid of her hearing.
"It's not so much 'cold' as ......" Mangu thought for a while, and used a phrase that General Wang once said.
"Is it better to mourn than to die?"
"It's really strange, no matter how important peanuts are, they won't make Huo Chang's temperament change greatly! If Di Yefei and the others watched it, they didn't know what they would think. ”
Shan Zhiqi touched his left arm and sighed.
"That's it, I'm not my original self anymore, so why bother thinking that others have become strange."
Behind He Mulan is the loyal Chen Jie, since the death of the flower, Su Hejun asked He Mulan to call back the guards, Chen Jie and Mangu returned to her, Chen Jie was originally just a centurion, Mangu was injured and temporarily became a personal soldier, but He Mulan knew that he had no hope of disarming and returning to the field, so he simply died, and took Chen Jie to his side.
At this time, Chen Jie admired Mulan more than the one in his previous life, He Mulan opened his mouth to ask, he couldn't wait to follow it for the rest of his life, and immediately agreed. From then on, wherever Hermulan went, he never left half a step.
Because of the peanut incident, Chen Jie was particularly vigilant and hostile to any stranger who approached Hermulan.
This soldier is now riding his own warhorse, with Hermulan's substitute horses "Da Hong" and "Birthday" tied behind him.
Da Hong is the jujube red horse, its experience is also quite tortuous, fell into the Rouran army and returned to He Mulan's side, He Mulan's heart is made of iron, and she also has feelings for it, but unfortunately she really can't name it, so she refers to the "little red horse" in the legend of the Condor Heroes, and named it "Big Red".
"Birthday" is Peanut's brown horse, Peanut is a slave of Hermulan, and after his death, all the relics belong to Hermulan. He Mulan burned his clothes and belongings, and only took his war horse as a substitute horse, so that he could take care of it.
As for Peanut's ashes, He Mulan used a copper kettle to take with him, Peanut had never been anywhere before his death, he had lived in the battlefield since he was a child, she was ready to have the opportunity to take his ashes all over the country in the future, and then find the most beautiful place and bury it.
At this time, He Mulan is not really "mourning more than dying", but he is just extremely confused about his future.
She thought that when she met Kou Qianzhi in this era, how could she have some answers, but Kou Qianzhi told her that his talent was "leaving the soul" and had the ability to travel freely through time and space, and the Kou Qianzhi she saw was the future Kou Qianzhi, but the Kou Qianzhi in the past didn't know a qiē.
This was a fact that was contrary to her worldview, but she had to believe it because she saw it with her own eyes.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why this Kou Qianzhi was able to appear in different places at the same time.
She didn't know what the answer was, she was trapped in this world, she wanted to be disarmed and returned to the field, and she was really unwilling to participate in the next few battles to break the country, and she was in a dilemma.
Although He Mulan wants to become a hero and not fall into Mulan's name, when he knows that his reputation may only be a "benchmark" created by the whole country, a big "horse bone", all those who have some wisdom will be confused and unwilling.
Tuoba Tao is a British lord, and Wei is also a powerful country that will dominate the world and look down on all countries in the future, but these should not be borne by Mulan.
What Mulan did in that life was just to fight well.
No one knew the pain in Hemulan's heart, only that she was different from before.
She also has a pain that cannot be expressed, which is the source of the tragedy of killing ghosts and peanuts, which may come from Liu Song of the Southern Dynasty.
As a real Han person, a person who has lived in modern times for 28 years, if she hadn't crossed over to become Mulan, she would have had a greater sense of belonging to Liu Song.
It was the real "pure Han" country in this era, the Han country preserved after the Wuhu Rebellion, and the powerful country that was so rich that it shocked the world......
She can fight with the Rouran people, fight with the Huns, and fight with Lu Shuihu in Beiliang, but she can't accept that she may have to fight against this country with a sense of belonging.
As long as she thinks that if she continues like this, she may have to fight to the death with the Han people across the river, and she is heartbroken.
With so many things on his mind, it is impossible for He Mulan to sing and laugh as before.
The dreary atmosphere of the rush continued until the gates of Montenegro.
At this time, it was already September, the northern land was colder than the rest of the place, the temperature difference between day and night was relatively large, the guards guarding the gate had already put on their autumn clothes, they were waiting for the drums in the city, as soon as the sound of the city gate locking sounded, they had to close the door and prepare for the change of guard.
A group of city gate officials leaned against the city gate and chatted, but they saw many horses in the distance, and on horseback sat valiant knights, and at a glance they were men who had been fighting for a long time.
They are all city gate officials stationed in Montenegro City and serving the Montenegrin battalion, and they don't know how many soldiers and soldiers they see coming and going every day, and when they see this posture, they know that a certain general has returned to Guanzhong, so they immediately stand up straight and go out to greet each other in a proper manner.
The sky behind Black Mountain City began to turn red, but the northern sky was already dark blue. When these people came closer, they found that Black Mountain City had not closed the city gates and showed relaxed expressions, as if even the horses' steps had become brisk.
Headed by the general (it should be the general!) He glanced at the city gate official at the head and took out a card from his bosom. The soldiers behind him took it, dismounted and handed it to the city gate officer.
As soon as the city gate official received the card, he was shocked!
The city gate officials must be literate, otherwise they will not be able to check the identity documents of those who enter and exit. There is no guide in the Wei Kingdom, but there are not necessarily fewer identity credentials.
I saw that there were only two lines of words on the card, and two lines were enough for him to brag about for a few months:
Wei Heishan
Tiger General Mulan
It turned out to be the recently famous Mulan!
The city gate official immediately returned the general's card respectfully, and personally helped the general led the horse to the city gate.
He had already made up his mind that even if the drum of closing the door and locking it sounded at this moment, he would not close the door, and he would not do his duty until this group of people was sent into the city.
These are real heroes!
He Mullan did not know at this time that his reputation had spread with the rumors in the army, and when he saw that the city gate official was respectful, he thought that he hoped for some reward as before.
He Mullan was worried that the gates would be closed soon, and that he would cause trouble for others. She carried some valuable things with her to wrap around, and at this moment she took out a small piece of it and handed it to the city gate official who led the horse.
"This is what I got from the worm, give it to you."
Unexpectedly, the city gate official showed a face: "You are insulting me!" With a look of shame, he pushed the piece of miscellaneous jade back.
"It's right to serve the general, how dare you ask for the general's things?!"
As soon as he said this, he and the others, even the subordinates of the city gate officials, all showed a look of "is it raining in the world?"
Everyone behind Hermulan looked at each other and felt extremely strange.
City gate officials, city gate officials, even any clan relatives and nobles passing by have to scrape some oil and water, if the city gate officials don't love money, it is really a change.
He Mulan obviously thought the same thing, and thought he was polite, so the jade stretched out again.
The gate officer was obviously in a hurry, and immediately loosened the reins and arched his hand.
"The general tortured me so much, I really didn't dare to lead the horse for you, the front is still bright, you can drive the horse by yourself!"
After saying that, he took a few steps back, and simply returned to the city gate.
They were all stunned by this strict city gate official, but Yue Ying kept horses' hooves, and after a while, He Mulan passed through the gate of the city gate and entered the familiar Black Mountain City.
It was already dusk, and it was time to leave the city, but there were not many people gathered near the city gate to go out, but many peddlers and pawns who sold cattle gathered around and talked loudly.
He Mulan had been in the camp of Montenegro for almost two years, and he didn't know how many times he had come to this Montenegrin city, and he knew what was going on when he saw this scene.
Herdsmen who raise cattle, sheep and horses rarely stay in Montenegro for too long, they are not big cattle dealers, and it will cost a lot of entanglement to stay in Montenegro for an extra day, not to mention that cattle and sheep are different from people, they can not live in the inn permanently, at this time it is dark, and the dealers are still waiting for something by the door, isn't it strange?
However, she is not a parent official, and she is not from Montenegro City, although she is strange in her heart, she also continues to ride forward, preparing to go to a familiar inn to stay overnight.
But before her horse had passed, she heard a loud roar:
"Anyway, we are all beasts, why bother, I'll give you a ride, you will be reincarnated in the next life, don't steal the beast!"
When He Mulan heard this, he turned his head, and saw a strong man holding up a butcher's knife that slaughtered cattle and sheep, and slashed at the neck of a cow whose whole body was bound!
The knife fell in his hand, and the blood splattered everywhere, and the man was obviously extremely excited in his heart, and forcibly cut the cow's neck a large part, revealing half of the trachea.
The cow on its knees screamed, and big tears fell from its eyes, as if it were crying. He Mulan had never paid attention to the scene of the slaughter of the cow, and when he saw that the cow would cry, for some reason, his heart suddenly became sad, and he glared angrily at the man who had done it.
But the man who killed the cow showed an expression even more sad than that of Hemulan, and he cried despite the fact that the cow was covered in blood, and hugged the cow's neck!
"I don't understand! I don't understand! ”
The man cried and cried, his blood and qi congealed, and he passed out!
