Sending Mu Fan away, Duanmu Xuan entered the study room of the inner courtyard of the county government, looking at Situ Yan buried in front of the bookcase, feeling a little uncomfortable, after all, he was tired of his sweetheart, "Yan'er~!" I? I'm sorry! ”

"The apology is forgiven, no one forced me, everything is voluntary to me. The elder brother is in the border city, the third brother is in the army, and I have you in my heart, where to start with this apology! "Since Situ Yan performed the ceremony, her attitude towards Duanmu Xuan has also been very different from before.

"Yan'er! Thank you! Duanmu Xuan approached, hugged Situ Yan into his arms, and whispered in his ear.

"If you really want to thank me, promise me to be careful and protect yourself! Bao Sange is safe! "Situ Yan has not really fought this kind of battle in the era of cold weapons, and when he was a soldier in his previous life, it was just a red and blue exercise, of course, it is different from such a real sword and real gun, and he is inevitably uneasy and worried.

"Yan'er, I promise you, I will drive the Turks out of Youzhou and retreat!" Duanmu Xuan's heart was warm, Situ Yan's attitude towards him made him happy, and compared to Situ Yan's belief that he would win, his sweetheart was more worried about his safety.

"A gentleman is honest and never loses his word!" Situ Yan pulled her body away and looked into Duanmu Xuan's eyes. After all, the two have to face the fact that they are fighting against each other.

On the first day of the first month of March, Wu officially raised troops against the Turks, recovered Youzhou, and relieved the people of the people. The Turkic Khan sat in the military tent, "Beiping is garrisoned by 200,000 troops of Wu, and the general who leads the army is Duanmu Xuan, the son of the Guogong Mansion. The younger brother thought that the khan should not stay in the army and be in danger! "As the Khan's own brother, Lord Ye Hu does not want the imperial brother to be in danger. I don't know what he thinks. But at least on the surface, it does.

"I am the son of the gods, and the Turkic warriors are fighting bloodily in front, how can I shrink back and ensure that I am safe. Don't say that again! "The khan is still somewhat wary of this younger brother, after all, the Turks are different from the state of Wu, and the death of the brother is also in harmony with the ceremony.

"The Khan is mighty! The gods will bless me Turk! Lord Ye Hu raised his hands high, and everyone in the tent knelt on the ground and chanted!

The Turkic soldiers will swear an oath to the heavens. And outside the fortress of the border city of Wu State, Duanmu Xuan led his own soldiers to stand in front of the tent, and Li Sanlang, who joined the army, knelt in front of him, "General." The subordinates are willing to kill the enemy in front of the battle with the forward battalion! ”

"Li joined the army, and the forward battalion was in danger of fighting the enemy in front of the battle!" Duanmu Xuan approached Li Sanlang, lowered his voice and continued. "I understand that the third brother wants to kill the enemy before the battle, but Yan'er will be worried!" Duanmu Xuan promised Situ Yan that he would protect Li Sanlang, how could he lose his word and lose his trust.

"Brother Ziheng, you should know. For the sake of Xiao Wu, I can't do nothing like this. Now that the war is together, it is the time for men to make meritorious contributions, if they only stay by the general's side, when can they become the backing of Xiao Wu! Li Sanlang did not shy away from what he thought in his heart.

"Okay, I should answer you, but the third brother must be more careful, the sword that kills the enemy before the battle has no eyes, and I let Mo Yu follow you." Be careful! ”

"How can this be, the Moyu guard is the personal guard of the general, and you must not go to the forward camp with your subordinates. Please also ask the general to take back his order! "Mo Yu has a special identity, if he is injured because of his own merit, how can he be worthy of Duanmu Xuan, and he will not be able to face his little sister.

"My mind has been decided, and Li joins the army to obey orders! ......" Duanmu Xuan gave several orders in a row, and Li Sanlang went straight to the forward battalion at the forefront of killing the enemy under the escort of Mo Yu.

On the top of the fortress tower, two soldiers dressed in soldiers were whispering, "Miss, what's so good about this battle, let's go back to the city!" If you let the young master know, I don't know how to worry! ”

"What are you afraid of, if you don't say it, if I don't say it, who can know!" The two people who spoke were Situ Yan and Chiyu. Situ Yan has never seen a real war since he came to this ancient world, and it is rare to have this opportunity. She also wanted to see how Duanmu Xuan resisted the enemy on the killing field and how he responded to the battle.

"Miss, stray arrows are hard to prevent, in case you are injured, how can your subordinates explain to the young master!"

"Your young lady is so weak, she can't even dodge arrows! Alright, don't talk so as not to arouse suspicion! Situ Yan was looking at it vigorously, although she couldn't see the appearance of the generals outside the city, but the formation of the troops was still clear at a glance.

"Chiyu, Brother Xuan, he takes the cavalry as the front, the infantry as the back, and then uses the archers to suppress the other party, and does the opposite, it is really a noble trick, which makes people unguardable!" Situ Yan really admires Duanmu Xuan, if she is only afraid, she may not think so.

"The young master has been fighting with the lord since he was a child, and I don't know how many battles have been fought, how can these Turkic generals be the opponents of the young master!" Chiyu was proud of admiration.

"Yes, your young master is so powerful!" Situ Yan's words were somewhat sour, but her man was strong, and she was still very happy in her heart. As he was looking at it, he saw a team of strange soldiers in the forward battalion, and they went straight to the opposing commander to lead the troops. And the back guards pressed the formation, although it looked dangerous, but it was very effective, and the enemy formation, which was still solid as a rock, was unexpectedly sprinkled with a hole.

"This man is brave and resourceful!" Fortunately, Situ Yan couldn't see the appearance of the person who came, otherwise he would have fallen from the fortress in fright. It was Li Sanlang who charged, and he couldn't read a lot of military books, especially with Situ Yan who did a lot of war games, although he had no experience in killing the enemy, but his mind was more flexible than ordinary generals.

And Mo Yu also agreed with this move, Mo Yu had been following Duanmu Xuan for a long time, and he had extraordinary opinions on the use of soldiers, even if he agreed, Li Sanlang dared to rush out of the camp and kill him.

The Turkic Bu formation was broken, and the drums were hurriedly beaten and the troops retreated, and the Wu army won a small victory in this battle, but the two sides of this battle were more tentative, so there were not many dead and wounded.

"Chiyu, go back!" Situ Yan saw that both sides outside the fortress had collected troops and retreated, and there was nothing to see, so he returned to the county seat. The border city stood up, and the county ordered Situ to post a notice as early as the beginning of the army, but fortunately, the grain merchants and merchants had been controlled before, and the prices in the city had not risen much, and they were still within the range that the people could bear.

In the past, Situ Jin listened to what Situ Yan said and severely punished the troublemakers, but now it has also achieved a lot of results. At least this time the border city battle, after the lockdown, only some thugs took advantage of the situation to make trouble. However, he was soon arrested by the yacha and Minzhuang who patrolled the city.

Although the city gates are now sealed, the shops are still open, and the price of grain has not been raised too high. Therefore, although the people were worried, no one gathered together to make trouble. Duanmu Xuanming Jin withdrew his troops, stood in the military tent with his back to the generals and carefully looked at the map of Youzhou. Li Sanlang and other generals stood behind him, and everyone had a serious face.

"Congratulations to Li for joining the army, breaking the enemy for the first time!" Military generals usually use military force to subdue the public, and Li Saburo repelled the enemy when he first entered the battlefield, although the other party was tempting. But Li Sanlang is brave and knowledgeable, and he is not afraid of life and death, which can be admired.

"Don't dare to be, it's all the generals who anticipate the enemy and plan first. The subordinates are just acting according to orders, and they can't do it! Li Sanlang and the generals around him exchanged pleasantries. He was happy that he could make contributions, but he also knew that he had made contributions at the beginning, and he must not think too highly of himself. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will offend people and I don't know it.

"The Turks are trying to test this time. Neither the enemy nor the enemy has raised troops on a large scale, but we are afraid that the next time it will be a tough battle, and you will each return to the camp to settle and deploy, and you will not relax your duty day and night. As for the bereavement care for the dead and wounded, I will visit them in person later! The generals were ordered to withdraw, and Li Sanlang knew that Duanmu Xuan had something to say to him, so he took a few steps slow and waited for everyone to disperse and leave. Only then did he turn back to the tent.

"Third brother, there are injuries!" Duanmu Xuan looked Li Sanlang up and down. I still have lingering apprehensions about him charging forward.

"Brother Lao Ziheng remembers! Not hurt! It's just that Brother Ziheng needs to help him hide from his little sister in this matter, otherwise I'm afraid she will be angry! Li Sanlang was grateful, he was a little embarrassed to get along with Duanmu Xuan, but although Duanmu Xuan was often jealous, he treated him sincerely. He didn't think that there would be any limelight, but the battle situation was changing rapidly, and he couldn't help thinking about it, and when he returned to the military tent, he remembered that such a thing had reached Situ Yan's ears, and he was afraid that the next moment the little sister would be killed in the army.

"I'm afraid I can't hide this matter, I just received a report from the fortress, just now, Yan'er disguised herself with Chiyu on the fortress and already saw it, I'm afraid that the news has spread to the city at this time!" Duanmu Xuan expected it to be good. Situ Yan was interested in the person who was charging into battle, and after the battle, he would naturally let Chiyu inquire.

Chiyu was also afraid for a while when he heard that the person was Li Sanlang, but he hesitated again and again, but still told Situ Yan the truth, "Chiyu, you said that it was my third brother who rushed into the enemy formation on horseback, is this true?" Was he hurt? No, I have to go to the army! ”

"Miss, my subordinates don't dare to hide and exaggerate!" Chiyu knew that Situ Yan would be worried and surprised, but she didn't expect that she would rush to the army to check immediately.

"Miss, don't worry, as far as your subordinates know, Third Young Master Li is not injured!" Although Chiyu inquired clearly, Situ Yan had not seen it with her own eyes, and she was worried in her heart. The two of them were pretending to leave the house, when they saw Li Sanlang riding a horse to the county office.

"Third brother!" Situ Yan hurriedly got off the horse, approached and pulled Li Sanlang to look up and down.

"Little Wu, I'm fine, I'm fine! You see, you don't even have your clothes torn! Seeing that the little sister was in a hurry, she was worried that Li Sanlang felt guilty.

"The third brother is anxious to make a profit, and I know in my heart that as long as the third brother promises me, no matter what happens, I must put my own safety first!" Situ Yan knew that this was Li Sanlang's choice, and she had no right to interfere. The only thing that can be done is to pray for loved ones.

"Okay, I must be careful, Brother Ziheng knows that Xiao Wu is worried, so I came to the city for a trip, now that the war has started, there are many affairs in the army, and it is really not easy to stay for a long time!" Li Sanlang saw Situ Yan, and remembered that the military could not stay for a long time.

"Chiyu, go to the stove room and load all the snacks I made for the third brother to take back!" As early as the beginning of the war, the herbal package had been handed over to Duanmu Xuan and Li Sanlang, and at this time, they just made some medicinal snacks for them to replenish their vitality.

"Little Wu, I haven't finished the food you sent a few days ago!" Li Sanlang didn't want the little sister to work for herself.

"If you can't finish eating, you can share it with others, make more friends, and go to the battlefield, so you will have more security!" Situ Yan didn't care about this, tied the dim sum to Li Sanlang's horse, and then waved his hand to watch him leave.

"Miss, are you also worried about the young master?" Chiyu felt that the young master did not return to the city together, and he was somewhat regretful.

"Just now the third brother said that Brother Xuan went to appease the wounded soldiers, I just know that he is fine!" At this moment, Situ Yan understood why she was worried, because she had already lived in a person in her heart, and she didn't know it was because it had not yet happened.

"Miss, you don't plan to go to the army, do you?" Chiyu had some foreboding.

"Well, I'm just afraid that my brother won't agree to this matter, and Brother Xuan won't agree either! Let's talk about it! "It's not that Situ Yan doesn't want to go to the battlefield, let alone Situ Jin and Duanmu Xuan, I'm afraid that even Li Sanlang won't agree.

Beiping County won a small victory in the first battle, and the Dongfang General of Wen'an County personally led an army of 100,000 to meet the enemy, and the first battle was just a trial.

The border city was in battle together, and the 800-mile urgent military information was sent from the border city to Beijing. In the inner courtyard of Gongsun Mansion, Gongsun Yu was about to give birth, but he was still standing in front of the window and looking into the distance, worrying about his father-in-law and relatives.

"Grandma, the stakes of your swollen feet, standing for a long time is not good for your body!" The four maids around him guarded Gongsun Yu day and night, for fear that if something happened to the young grandmother, Miss Situ would ask the four of them for their guilt. After all, compared to Situ Jin, who has always ignored the affairs of the house, the four of them are very afraid of Situ Yan.

"It's okay, Yan'er wrote a few days ago that you must move around more before giving birth, otherwise it will be easy to have a difficult birth!" Gongsun Yu thought of her sister-in-law Situ Yan's family letter every ten days, and her face was happy. has such a sister-in-law who thinks about her sister-in-law in everything, compared to those women who live by watching her mother-in-law's face all day long, she can be regarded as the happiest in the capital.

"Miss, Madame came to see you, I'm afraid I'm already in the courtyard at this time!" When Gongsun Yu heard that his mother was coming, he hurriedly closed the window and walked back to bed.

There was tension in the calm in Gongsun's mansion. And the Guogong Mansion is heavily guarded in the inner and outer courts. "Lord, Madam, please go back to the inner courtyard and inquire about something!" Mo Bing stood at the door of the study and replied.

"Go and tell Madame that Xuan'er is okay and won the first battle, so she doesn't need to worry. I won't go into the inner courtyard if I have something to do here! "Liang Rengong still has something to discuss with his staff, so it is inconvenient to enter the inner courtyard at this time.

"Yes!" Mo Bing led the order to retreat. In the inner courtyard of the Guogong Mansion, the Duchess knelt in front of the Buddha statue and prayed for her son who was far away in the border city.

"Nurse, this is fighting again, hey! I only have Xuan'er as a son, but the emperor wants to send him to be this general, which Turkic people didn't grow up eating human flesh, and I don't know if Xuan'er can win this battle? ”

"Madam, the prince of the world is auspicious, and you burn incense and chant Buddha for him day and night, nothing will happen, he will return victoriously every day, you just wait for a product of the order to add to it!"

"I don't expect a good order, I just hope that Xuan'er can be safe! I heard that the girl from Situ Mansion also followed her brother to the border city, so she must not be a drag on Xuan'er! ”

"Madame, don't worry, there are the master's iron-blooded guards watching, even if that girl wants to, these iron-blooded guards will not agree!"

"Nurse, what kind of tendon did you say the lord was, why did you choose such a girl for Xuan'er as his wife, although she was named the county lord, but she didn't have the support of her mother's family, I'm afraid that it may not be helpful to Xuan'er in the future!"

"Madam, where do the slaves and maids understand this, but the lord often accompanies the king, and naturally sees different from others, since it is the emperor's marriage, the girl was named the county lord, and finally did not bury the reputation of the prince, and when you marry into the mansion in the future, you can train it well!"

Seeing that the Duchess of the country was still frowning, the nurse knew that she was still unwilling, and after thinking for a while, she continued, "Although the wife who is being chosen can't help the son, after the wedding, it will be the same for you to choose a few lovely concubines for the prince!" ”

"That's it!" Fortunately, Situ Yan has not married into the Guogong Mansion at this time, otherwise he is afraid that he will not be angry after hearing this, and he will not feel good in his heart. The duchess of this country doesn't know if her brain is in the water, she doesn't like her husband to take a concubine, but she wants to give her son a concubine, so she doesn't know the truth of "don't do to others what you don't want to do to yourself".
