Previously, Zhang Xiaowu really had no experience in governing the people, and had not been in contact with the folds, and the people under him were all big and rude, and the only civilian official Guan Ji was only a military Chinese post before, so that no one realized that he wrote every ten folds.

No wonder the imperial court also forgot about them completely, and the imperial court thought that Mucheng was only guarded by thousands of defeated soldiers, which caused the current misunderstanding.

At this time, Zhang Xiaowu pulled Ruan Qingwen to write these three twists and turns together. In the first twist, Ruan Qingwen wrote about the current situation of the defenders of Mucheng and the form of Saibei, to put it bluntly, it is the origin of the 10,000 defenders of Mucheng and asking for military salaries. The second memora writes about the situation of the abolished prince, and shows loyalty to the emperor, the abolished prince has nowhere to go but to be imprisoned here, how and how to be loyal to the emperor Yunyun. The third twist and turn shows that Zhang Xiaowu is more familiar with Saibei, and he and Su Yu cooperate with Yiwen and Wuwu to lobby Inuyi, and he will definitely be able to complete the trust of the imperial court.

Ruan Qingwen boasted about Zhang Xiaowu in the twists and turns, what exterminated the sand bandits in Saibei, what killed Yegu Chashi, what three arrows shot back millions of dogs, and blew Zhang Xiaowu like the first god of war in Saibei.

Zhang Xiaowu listened to these three twists and turns, only felt that there were too many elements to boast about himself, and he was embarrassed, Ruan Qingwen said: "You were worried that the imperial court didn't pay attention to it before, but now you are still worried about the legend you wrote." It doesn't matter, who are you, then the golden guard must have a file. ”

mentioned Jin Yiwei, Zhang Xiaowu thought of Li Qing again, and his heart sank, it seems that in order to reassure the imperial court, he must take Li Qing with him when he goes north this time.

The next day, Zhang Xiaowu selected his entourage, Li Yuan, who was skilled in horsemanship and good at commanding cavalry, Ruan Qingwen, who was able to get in touch with Jincheng, and Li Chuncheng, who was good at sneak attacks.

Three hundred cavalry is not a small number, but they must be elite and hard-working.

To be able to follow the ghost generals and see the legendary victory in every battle, the soldiers have come up with their own skills, and the scout battalion is even more important, in order to compete for a place to go with the army, the quarrel is red and the neck is thick. This kind of situation directly frightened Su Yu's thirty-six guards, and everyone looked at each other, saying in their hearts, how can the soldiers of this wooden city be so natural? Aren't you afraid of death?!

The thirty-six guards were told to stay in Mucheng, and Zhang Xiaowu felt that these thirty-six people were not only useless, but might also affect the team. The cavalry guards were grateful, and one of the lieutenants hurriedly said: "My lord, the garrison envoy, there are seventy old mothers and mothers who are waiting to be fed, although they are ......."

"Shut up." Su Yu said disdainfully, "You are honestly waiting for me in Mucheng, if I die in the hands of Inuyi, please ask City Lord Zhang to make them my burial companions." ”

"Okay, leave it to me." Zhang Xiaowu threatened, thirty-six guards wanted to cry without tears, and this was called compensation to grandma's house.

Li Yuan only had three days to choose people, he first eliminated from 10,000 people with physical injuries or old injuries that had not healed, then selected those who could ride horses, the third selected those who could ride and shoot, the fourth selected those who could raise horses, and the fifth time eliminated the only son in the family, and finally there were 500 people left, and 200 people still needed to be eliminated from them. Li Yuan thought about it, but Li Qing suggested: "It's best to choose some people who know foreign languages, I see that Master Su's entourage actually didn't have an interpreter, and if you see a foreign race, you can't be planted?" "This Li Qing was lucky last time, Li Yuan didn't have a chance to kill him, so he left him for the time being.

Li Yuan suddenly realized the shortcomings of this trip, laughed, and told Zhang Xiaowu about the interpretation, and Zhang Xiaowu also realized that the team did not have an interpreter. Su Yu said: "I heard that the high-level Wuhuan is all ...... Chinese."

"Brother Boling, you haven't seen the top of the family, you may have been slaughtered by the soldiers at the bottom!" Zhang Xiaowu smiled bitterly, he asked Li Yuan to immediately look for an interpreter, not only looking for a interpreter in Wuhuan, but also for interpreters in various other languages, Beiyi, Tatar, Shengfan, Uzi, Yueshi and so on.

Of the three hundred elites selected by Li Yuan, one-third came from the Dead Soldier Battalion, while the other two-thirds were the elite scouts of the Qinglong Army who had retreated from the front, and most of them came from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Regiments.

In fact, although the Qinglong Army has ten regiments, the core strength is the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth regiments, except for the fifth regiment stationed in Jincheng and did not suffer losses when the camp was broken in the Yashan camp, the fourth regiment was previously attacked by the dog Yi and lost half of the men, and the remaining three regiments of nearly 60,000 people are the most elite force of the Qinglong Army. Except because of internal response, everyone really can't figure out why the Yashan camp was attacked twice, and each time it suffered heavy losses.

The scouts who were able to escape back also went through several life-and-death struggles, and were finally selected into the sixth team, and they were all elites in the army. The sixth formation, composed of such a group of elites, could not be an ordinary person. Whether it is the veterans of the dead battalion or the long-fought cavalry scouts who fled from the front line, they are now the most elite and combative force in the Mucheng garrison, and under Li Yuan's training and command, their combat effectiveness also exceeds that of the sixth regiment's cavalry battalion.

Everything is ready only to owe the east wind, this east wind is the translation, there are people in the army who know Tatar and Wuhuan, and there is a traveling merchant in the city who knows Beiyi language, but only one is missing who can speak the Tatar language, Shen Lindong laughed and reminded: "My lord, Bai Hao is the Tatar people, have you forgotten?" ”

Zhang Xiaowu had a row of heads, he was really anxious and dizzy, obviously there was a Tatar person next to him, and he was looking for a translator from Ayor, and he was really busy fainting.

The next day, Zhang Xiaowu convened the civil and military forces of the whole city, and officially appointed Xiao Kai as the deputy garrison envoy to take charge of the military tasks of the Mucheng garrison on his behalf. He then privately told Hu San0,000 that if something happened to him, the salary of the Qinglong Army would be handed over to Xiao Kai, and Xiao Kai would continue to lead everyone. Hu Sanwan hurriedly said: "My lord, you must come back alive, you must." ”

"There's a good chance I'll come back alive." Zhang Xiaowu said chicly.

Hu Sanwan choked up and said, "Otherwise, I'll find you a strong girl these days, and you will at least have a queen......

Zhang Xiaowu was dumbfounded: "Leave a fart, you treat me as a stallion?" ”

After everything was ready, Zhang Xiaowu gave an order, and it took less than half an hour for Li Yuan to lead three hundred elites to prepare. Under the bitter north wind, in the expectation of the Tucheng military and civilians, everyone began the road of peace talks in the north with an unknown future. Although it was already February of the first year of Dade, Saibei was still a snowy world, and if it weren't for the road signs along the road, they would never have found the road. Even the old local herders have a hard time finding their way through the snowstorm.

Fortunately, after two days of heavy snowfall, it stopped, and there were no horse bandits or wild beasts along the way, and the party made it to the ruins of Roland, rested for a short day, and then continued north.
