In the days after arriving in Shuozhou, He Mulan was completely unreachable. Even if she was Kumoti's personal soldier, in a heavily defended place like Shengle in Shuozhou, not on the battlefield, He Mulan would not be able to join the state affairs discussed by Tuoba Tao and the dignitaries.

In the past few days, there have been constant messengers from Shuozhou to Pingcheng, and there are also messengers to the east, west and north, almost endlessly. With the arrival of the wounded, baggage, and rescue cavalry from Woye and other places to Shengle in Shuozhou, this originally small city suddenly poured into many people, and even the people knew that Emperor Wei had arrived in Shengle, and it was common to see people kowtowing to Xianbei Shifu.

Because the "big guys" are very busy, the "little guys" who have little to do with the big guys have nothing to do with it. He Mulan went to look for Yueying when he was fine, and when a few people came, he told a few people about what he had seen and heard along the way.

Several people knew that his second brother was also here, and his whole face was wrinkled, and he didn't even go back to his eldest brother's side, and he was hanging outside all day long. He Mulan was speechless when he remembered his second brother who didn't know what he was thinking, and sometimes he would take him in for a while when he saw him wandering outside.

"Hey, it hurts...... some of them were like Hermulan, because the rapid march was too long, and it was all worn from the knees to the inner thighs.

He Mulan cleaned and bandaged herself, but several people wanted to come to her to bandage her.

"What if, as you said, it gets sawed off because of the infection!" Several people showed exaggerated expressions of horror, "It's better for you to pack!" "

He Mulan was speechless, she just casually said to Arman Zhiqi once that if the arm wound was not handled properly, it was likely to be sawed off, and as a result, several people listened to it in their ears and remembered it, and even such a small injury was hypocritical.

Several people were lying on Hermulan's mattress, stretching out their legs, and there was not a single strand under their trousers, because they were hurting their thighs, so they simply took them off from above.

Fortunately, He Mullan used to be a forensic doctor, and he treated several people purely as a piece of meat, otherwise he would have been ashamed to see other women.

He Mulan didn't have a good way to deal with this kind of wound, wipe it with strong salt water, and then let him wrap it in a clean bandage by himself, without rubbing, and it would be fine in a few days.

A number of people were neatly dressed on the upper half of their bodies, and their lower bodies were so open, and he was also obedient, and He Mullan told him to wrap himself around him, and he was halfway through the wrapping, and someone was knocking on the door.

"Who? Come in......" A number of people casually agreed, only then did they remember that they were in He Mulan's room, and hurriedly looked at He Mullan apologetically.

What can she apologize for, it's not herself who came in and was looked at.

"Little brother here? No wonder the eldest brother said that if you can't find it, just look at Mulan's ......" A number of wolf heads who pushed the door in smiled, and when they saw the scene in the house, their faces changed suddenly.

"You two, what are you doing!"

His younger brother's pants were half-faded, revealing his thighs, and Mulan was standing beside him, with water stains in his hands......

Some of them still have white cloths in their hands! What the hell is to be wiped!

What the hell are they doing?

Damn it! What the hell is the camp in Montenegro?

The gloomy faces of several wolf heads can frighten people to death, He Mulan inexplicably put the salt water aside, ready to wait to pour it out, some people seemed to be unhappy when they saw this brother's face, shook the bandages in their hands, and after shaking them off completely, they snorted coldly: "In order to save you, I almost lost my legs, come and bandage it, and I have to get your permission?"

"What leg is wasted...... Huh, bandage?" A number of wolf heads stepped forward in a few steps, looked down, and found that it was only worn out of the skin and bruised a little, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then casually flicked on someone's little jj: "It's good that the third leg is not wasted, I have a few families still waiting for you to pass on the lineage, and give our family more branches!"

"Hey! Why are your hands so heavy! Several people gasped and hurriedly covered their vital points. You have to pass on the lineage yourself! "

"Of course I don't need anyone to worry about it, but you, don't have a noble girl to look at, you have to marry an ugly woman......"

As long as there are no broken sleeves.

Some wolf heads remembered what the eldest brother said to them, and quietly glanced at He Mulan, and found that the latter just smiled and watched the two brothers fight, so they helped their younger brother wrap the other leg.

I didn't help with bandages, so I don't think I have that tendency, right?

Wrong! Two big men, what's so embarrassing to help tie the bandages?!

This He Mulan is really "good" to his stupid brother!

He Mulan and a few others tied up their bandages and put on their trousers, and then knelt beside them and asked about the intentions of some of the wolf heads.

He was Tuobatao's guard, and his status was roughly equivalent to that of a personal soldier like He Mulan. It's just that Tuoba Tao's personal guards have two or three hundred people, and he is not a core, and now the discussion of the next direction in the Thorn Mansion is in full swing, and several wolf heads can only guard the door outside.

"I'm afraid that the departure of the team to conquer Western Xia is in this month, I heard His Majesty Xià say, General Zhou Ji should have had an accident, there has been no news for more than half a month, and even General Xi Jin's battle report has not been sent for a while. I think that after Chang'an is captured, there should be another change."

In this era, communication is not available, and when a military newspaper reached the emperor, it was more than half a month ago. He is not on the front line, the front line is changing, no one knows what happened to Zhou Ji, and he doesn't know if Chang'an is still there.

"Xi Sikong is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, so there shouldn't be anything." Some people said in a witty way: "Is it for the sake of fighting. [,！ Gong, so you've been competing?"

The most common situation in the Wei army to delay military aircraft is to change the predetermined battle plan for the sake of merit, but this kind of thing rarely occurs in the old ministers, because the old ministers do not rely on killing the enemy to accumulate meritorious deeds.

"Who knows. Therefore, junior brother, if the eldest brother's team is going to follow General Kumoti, I will discuss it with the eldest brother and send you back to the camp in Montenegro to 'deliver the letter'."

"Why should I deliver a letter?" Several people's eyes widened in disbelief, "Xia Guo is strong and rich, this is a good opportunity for me to make contributions, so I don't want to go back to the camp in Montenegro!" "

He Mulan suddenly remembered what some wolf heads had said to her, what he had gone to some tiger heads to be killed by the chain, and what had knocked him unconscious before he went.

He also said it was a joke! Isn't that true?

"Siege is different from creeping, it can't be wrong at all, and it's hard to protect itself at every turn. Your martial arts are commonplace, not only can't you protect your eldest brother, but you can't even protect yourself, and going to Xia Kingdom is also a drag on your brother. Besides, you are a personal soldier, even if you are our brother, the Lord will order you to do something, can you still resist?"

Some of the wolf's heads touched his brother's head, and the latter slapped it away.

"I'll resist, can you still kill me? Slash and slash! "

A number of people did not catch up with Tuoba Tao to resist the soldiers and horses of the two countries, nor did they catch up with the worms and Xia people who were killed by He Mulan and Kumoti and others, and when they arrived in Shuozhou, they heard that their brother said that His Majesty might want to go to the Xia Kingdom in person, and some people were secretly excited, and the two brothers of his family suddenly came to this ......

He Mulan was very embarrassed to listen to the sidelines, the second brother and the younger brother, she didn't know whether to persuade or not.

In her opinion, there is no man in this era who does not dream of making meritorious contributions, although some people say that they came to the Chinese army to be with her, but he will come to the army, definitely not with the idea of being protected all the time, but to make a name for himself.

What's more, some people are not that kind of gentlemen, and they also have some attainments in the art of war, and they are also very sensitive to the situation on the battlefield, except for the martial arts, there are no major shortcomings. Tuoba Tao is the male god in the minds of almost all Xianbei men of the same age, and several people have a chance to get together, and his two brothers want him to go back to Montenegro and not take him to play, which is understandable.

A number of wolf heads came to probe the mouth, and when he saw that there were outsiders present, he was so resolute, and probably understood his brother's thoughts, and did not bother to talk to him, but smiled slightly, and replied to him:

"You know that there are few men in our family, who will kill you? Forget it, I won't talk to you more, you can think about it yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, several people shouted: "Don't think about it! I wouldn't even think about it! "

A number of wolf heads and younger brothers broke up unhappily, some of them were very popular, and they were afraid that this was Hemulan's place, so they could only hold their breath, and their faces turned red after a while.

"Your eldest brother and second brother are quite concerned about you......"

"Where do they care about me! They treated me like a child! There are few men and few men all day long, and I stuffed a maid at the age of fourteen, which is to treat me as a stallion! "

He Mulan thought of Yue Ying, and then thought of Tuoba Huang, who had a son at the age of eleven, and the muscles on his face couldn't help twitching, "Ah...... This is indeed a very important thing to stay after."

"They all have children, what do you want me to do after I stay! I'm not a sister-in-law! "

"Huh? Hey? Hey? Both of your brothers have children?"

He Mulan's eyes were round, "Can you have children in the army?"

"Isn't it possible to go home and get married when you're on vacation! My eldest brother and son are both four years old. The second brother's son is also more than two years old, and the second brother's son is a concubine." Several people waved their hands. They changed four maids for me, and none of them gave me a son. They always think that there is something wrong with me, and they talk about it all day long, and they worry about me dying all day long! "

Four maids, for five years, left no offspring......

In my case, I also have to worry about your health.

He Mullan's squinted eyes swept the vital points of several people.

…… There won't be a number of problems, right?

"Fire chief, you look a ghost!" Some of them stood up in exasperation. Those maids know that they are rubbing against me, treating me like a big fat meat, who can have sex with them! I wasn't born to breed! "

He Mulan burst out laughing, "Sure enough, there are still troubles in the nobles' families, and a few of them are troubled by no daughter-in-law all day long, you are good, you are worried about others stuffing your daughter-in-law all day long......"

"You want a maid, I'll send you a few back." Several people raised their eyebrows disappreciatively. They were all picked for me by my family, and they all looked good at birth, I hadn't touched them, and they didn't dare to say it."

Speaking of this, several people also squinted their eyes and looked at He Mulan's x: "Huo Chang, you won't have a problem, right?" I didn't see that you were interested in women, and you never bothered that you didn't have a daughter-in-law......"

"You're thinking too much." He Mulan patted him on the head, "Your two brothers don't want you to go to the Xia Kingdom, what should you do?" If they really don't let you go, just find a few homes and press you back, it's useless if you want to resist! "

"If they do, I'll be forced to die!"

……

That's pretty impressive.

Except for seeking death and life, a stupid brother who has no way at all......

A number of wolf heads outside the house, listening to the movement inside, pouted, shook their heads and left

[,！ In the end, some people were not sent away by the two elder brothers, not because he succeeded in forcing each other to die, but because of He Mulan's "three trumpets" strategy, which made Gu Bi, an important minister around Tuoba Tao, interested in several people and summoned him over.

A number of people are not afraid of the nature of the earth, and they are not timid at all when they meet Gu Bi's questioning, and after half a day of questions and answers, Gu Bi admires some people.

Gu Bi was very young when he was out of office, first in the first emperor's side as a doorman, and later in Tuoba Tao as the secretary of the East Palace, he is a Xianbei person, Xianbei surname is "Tu Xi", his real name is "Tu Xi love pen", Tu Xi's sinicization is earlier, Han surnames are written "Gu", so when he writes, his name has been written as "Gu Pen".

The first emperor praised him, saying that this person is not only as easy to use as a brush, but also has a straight and hard personality like a brush, so the ministers of the court and the central government love to call him "pen gong", and Tuoba Tao sometimes calls him "pen head".

The name of "ancient pen" was obviously not suitable for the important ministers in the court, so the first emperor later changed his "pen" character to "弼", taking the meaning of auxiliary bi.

Although Gu Bi is a Xianbei person, he has studied Sinology since he was a child, is good at reading, and is good at riding and shooting. It's just that because his temper is too hard, he is not as connected as ministers such as Cui Hao or Changsun Han.

He is a capable minister of the Tuoba Tao and Tuoba Tao dynasties, and a cadre, Tuoba Tao named him "Lingshou Marquis" as soon as he ascended the throne, and set him up as the "Lijie General", the meaning of this title is actually to see him as a military general with the status of "scepter" around the emperor.

On several expeditions, this minister with both civil and military skills has made a lot of military achievements, and he is from the Xianbei clan, so he is more valued.

After a few years, Tuoba Tao made him the secretary of the ministry, respected his opinion very much, and took him with him wherever he went.

Gu Bi is a Xianbei person, but he likes the knowledge of the Han people, and likes the art of war, so naturally he is not very different from many Xianbei nobles, so a number of people with the same interests and hobbies naturally fall in love with him.

The knowledge and ability of several people are naturally less than one-tenth of Gu Bi's, but he is a young man, with a cheerful and clever personality, and a kind of naïve and self-familiar stupidity, which inexplicably won Gu Bi's love.

After Gu Bi chatted with him for a few days, he invited the emperor, saying that he liked this little friend, and that he was only a personal soldier because of his attainments in Sinology and the art of war, so he asked him to go over from a number of tiger heads and be a "waiter" by his side.

The attendant is different from the pro-soldier, but is a subordinate official cultivated by important officials in the court, if it is good, it is easy to get recommended and become a real court official. At this time, there was no imperial examination, and a large part of the way to become an official came from shadowing and recommendation, and many nobles and high-ranking men sent their children to the Su Guard Army to be hunters, and sent them to other executives as "waiters", hoping to go through such a path.

A number of unknown people won Gu Bi's love, so that many people were very surprised, even Tuoba Tao summoned him, curiously met, asked about evil, and then probably felt that some people were not very careful, just gave something, and called a number of tiger heads to discuss for a while, and sent a number of people to Gu Bi.

Where do some tiger heads dare to disobey? Even if his father came, he would only bow down obediently in front of this Shangshu, not to mention that it was much safer to be by his side than by his own side, and some tiger heads did not show any unwillingness except for their younger brother.

"Hahaha, you didn't see my eldest brother and second brother surprised, I'm really not good at Danqing, otherwise I would have drawn it! It's for this that it's worth it for me to go to the ancient envoy's side! "

Several people were frowning and nibbling on the melons and fruits in the house, which was still given by Tuobatao, and he specially called He Mulan to come late.

He Mulan racked his brains to recall for a while, and his later impression of this minister was that he seemed to be a little unhappy with the emperor when he conquered Beiyan, and was demoted to a doorman, and soon reinstated.

The character is really bad, when Mulan drove to Beiliang, he argued with the emperor in the main hall, and then he was directly left in Beiliang and did not go out with the army.

But how dangerous is it to be around him......

Not really.

He was a winning general until he came out of Mulan.

"It's great that you've got that person's favor. To be honest, your martial arts are not suitable for serving in a forward camp like the Eagle Yang Army, if you follow the path of a military division, or an auxiliary general to join the army, it is suitable."

He Mulan smiled, "Lord Gu is a scholar and a general of Lijie, you should be able to learn a lot of skills in dispatching troops and governing the country by his side."

"I don't want to govern the country anymore, if I can learn some military tactics, I'm already satisfied!" Several people's smiling eyes narrowed, "Moreover, this time, the ancient envoy will definitely go to the Xia Kingdom with him, and no matter how unhappy my eldest brother is, he can only watch me follow the army!" "

"Anyway, what did you do about him that won his favor?" He Mulan pretended to be disdainful and glanced at a number of people: "How do you look at it, it's just an ordinary person!"

"Hahaha, then you don't understand, we talked all night! I told him about the formation of sheep chops when I was a child, and told him how he made sheep fight with vicious dogs; I have several military books that I can't find everywhere, and he has them, and he borrowed them from me to copy them! "

Some of them happily continued: "I must be very smart......"

"Because he is the same as you, he is also the son of the noble concubine of the Tuxi family, there are two excellent brothers on it, he was suppressed since he was a child, and the last two brothers died in infighting, and he gradually showed his talents."

Some of the wolf's heads entered the houses of some people without even knocking on the door, picked up a courgette and gnawed on it. [,！ ]: "Don't you think you have any talent, you have similar experiences, and he naturally has a good impression of you from the beginning."

"Died in infighting?" A few people blinked, completely unable to understand what this meant: "They fought among themselves, and the grandfather at home didn't beat them to death?"

"Do you think that everyone values their children as much as our grandfather? Tuxi is a big family, and I don't know how many children are available in the family, and it's normal to fight hard." A number of wolf heads rolled their eyes, "But you can be valued by this adult, you still have some ability, so it's okay, big brother doesn't have to worry about your life and death every day and can't sleep."

"Big brother slept well! I'll show him the account at night! Several people immediately retorted, and then were stunned. I can't show him the account now......"

Gu Bi is an important minister in the DPRK, and he belongs to the kind of people who go to be a general to lead the troops when they fight, and they are the directors of the DPRK and the Central Committee when they don't fight. However, a number of tiger heads are the deputy generals of the Montenegrin battalion, and they are not allowed to leave Montenegro.

He went to be a "waiter", although the grade was too low, but he was a high-class miscellaneous official, and he would go to Montenegro again in the future, unless Dawei and Worm were in full battle.

"Your eldest brother still lacks you to look at the accounts? I don't dare to sleep well at night! "Some wolf heads laughed at him." Lord Gu often serves His Majesty's side, your brother and I are Hunter, and I often serve His Majesty, so we will have more opportunities to meet in the future. Why, you like to give people vigils so much? Why don't you come and guard my ...... too?"

"Oh my God! I forgot about this! A few people gave a look of horror, "Oh my God! I'm going to ask the ancient envoy, can I not go, follow you, can I still have my life! "

"Haha, Your Majesty has already asked the eldest brother, and the eldest brother just saw that I was smart and I was here to take care of you, so I agreed so relieved."

"Big brother pits me!"

A number of people roared at the sky.

He Mulan still didn't understand why some people regarded some wolf heads as beasts, and once asked curiously, some people said with strange faces: "He is different from the front and the back of the child, when he is in front of people, his personality is very gentle, and after people is very insidious. When I was a child, I deduced that I did the bad things he did, because he always behaved very well, and no matter how much I explained, no one believed that he did it......"

He Mulan remembered that when he was a child, he always let his brother carry the black pot, thinking about it, didn't his brother also scold her for being "insidious" behind his back?

"Also, when I came to the army, my grandfather originally prepared more house slaves for me, but he wrote to my grandfather, saying that my house slaves are too much, and naturally I will not get experience in the army...... Originally, I went from one person to five people and six people, and then there were only one to four people left......"

"He must have thought that he was going to be a guard, and he didn't bring a house slave, so he was jealous of me, hum!"

"Person five? Person Six?"

What's the name of this!

"And what is your eldest brother's house slave called?"

"Tiger Big Tiger Two Tiger Three...... To Tiger XVIII. Eighteen! Eighteen house slaves! "

"Huh...... Your brothers really know how to name ......"

"All the names in my family were given by my grandfather, including the house slave ......"

"…… Do you have any sisters?"

He Mulan remembered that some people also had a sister who later married Tuobatao, so some people said that becoming a Taishou was not based on talent, but nepotism.

"What, you want to kiss?" A number of people leaned over their faces with interest, "My sister is beautiful, and her personality is by no means weak, my grandfather said that it is enough to be a lady or something!" "

"Where do I dare to climb, but I wonder her name."

Girl, you shouldn't mess with names, right?

"Oh, my sister...... She's called some cats."

Hermulan burst into tears.

Then he felt even more tragic for the waitresses of this "future lady".

He Mulan and his entourage stayed in Shuozhou for half a month, and six days ago, Taichang Cui Hao left Shuozhou with the officials of Honglu Temple and others under the honor guard of Tuoba Tao, and continued to go to the camp of Montenegro to cover people's eyes.

As long as the wounded soldiers in the Yulin Army could still ride horses, they all dressed up as uninjured and left Shuozhou with Cui Hao and others. The leader of the team is Tuoba Ren, he is also Tuoba Tao's cousin, his figure is very similar to Tuoba Tao, wearing his armor, waving his royal flag, just like this, he set off with tens of thousands of Yulin Army and Zhenshu Army all the way, as a stand-in for Tuoba Tao.

Since He Mulan was remembered for "feeding the horses" in front of Tuoba Tao, Kumoti did not hide anything from her, and after Tuoba Ren set off, he told He Mu Lan that they would soon go to Chang'an, and the reason why he still stayed was because he had to wait for Tuoba Ren to go farther, and then left Shuozhou under the banner of rescuing the generals in Woye and Shuozhou.

As soon as He Mulan heard that he was about to march in a hurry again, he made preparations in these few days, and waited until the early morning of the sixth day after Cui Hao and other "high-chariot envoys" left, while the sky was still bright, more than 30,000 light horsemen rushed to Chang'an with enough baggage and grain and grass for 20 days.

They would resupply again in the fertile field, replace the replacement horses, and still cross the Yellow River from Junzijin to the west.

Wang drove the expedition in person, even if he didn't play the banner, it was not trivial. Tuoba Tao was accustomed to cavalry, personally commanded, without any mistakes, and soon arrived at the Wei camp not far from Tongwan City.

The emperor came in person, the commander here Changsun Han was startled, and hurriedly brought Changshan King Tuoba Su to meet him, and when he heard what Emperor Wei had encountered near Shuozhou, this Situ who had gone through three dynasties showed a shocked and sad expression: "Did the 20,000 soldiers and horses that Helianding escaped actually go to my Great Wei?"

"Why don't you go. [,！ ], and more than 20,000 worms were merged. Budui captured a lot of Helian Ding's elite soldiers and came back, and after interrogation, he said that it was the will of Tongwancheng, and a secret envoy had already contacted the worm, so the two parties made an appointment to meet in Shuozhou......" Tuoba Tao showed his anger and asked Changsun Han: "What is going on with Zhou Ji, isn't he responsible for defending the retreat?" Such negligence should be punished according to the law! "

Zhou Ji is a Han general, make good use of Han soldiers, defend and siege the city are very powerful, because he has repelled the attacks of the Song State many times, and also followed the first emperor Tuoba to enter the Central Plains, and even conquered Xuchang and Ruyang, so he was named "Song Soldier General".

Mulan's father will retire, that is, he was transferred to the army of Zhou Ji as a centurion that year, he knew some Chinese characters in the Zhou Ji army, and his leg was also a problem when he attacked the Song Dynasty.

Because of such a little incense, He Mulan, who was following Kumoti, paid special attention to listening to Changsun Han's answer.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to cut it......" Eldest Sun Han's face became even more bitter when he heard Tuoba Tao's words. I also got the news not long ago that General Zhou suddenly got an intestinal carbuncle during the march and the high fever did not go away, and Helian Ding took the opportunity to make a detour to escape, leaving his younger brother Helian Wei to take on the identity and keep harassing him."

Intestinal carbuncle is appendicitis.

He Mulan twisted his eyebrows, acute appendicitis caused by vinegar, in this world is almost a death.

"General Zhou is sick, the dragons have no leader, this is the Xia Kingdom after all, they are familiar with the road, and there are feints to harass them, no one found out that Helian Ding ran away. By the time he found out, General Zhou had already died of illness......"

"What?"

Rao is Tuoba Tao already had some premonitions in his heart, and he didn't expect Zhou Ji to die of illness.

"What day of the week is the troop now? Who's in command?"

"Sikong Xijin, who is guarding Chang'an, and the king of Nanyang, who is responsible for escorting the siege tools outside Tongwan, want this army, saying that there are not enough people, but the way back cannot be guarded by no one, otherwise there will be problems with baggage supplies. Your Majesty, you came just in time......"

The veteran, who is over fifty years old, bowed his head:

"Please also ask for the Holy Judge!"
