Chapter 390: Northern Expedition to the Grassland

It's night, Lijiazhuang.

"Father has decided to go to the grassland?" Ying Yue sat on the edge of the bed, her lips moved, and asked softly.

"Hmm." Li Chen responded.

"Do you think you shouldn't fight now, or I'll persuade my father." Ying Yue said.

Ying Yue should be the only person in the entire Great Qin who can persuade the First Emperor, and now that the decree has been issued, even if Ying Yue goes, I am afraid that it will not be able to say that the First Emperor's order will be changed overnight.

"Forget it, just fight, it's not unsure." Li Chen thought about it and said with a wry smile.

In fact, this battle is not impossible to fight, the reason why Daqin has been in a stalemate with the grassland tribes for more than ten years is not because Daqin's sword is not sharp enough, nor is it because Daqin's horse is not fast enough, but because of national strength. In the past, the national strength of Great Qin was not strong, and the front line was often more tense in the rear than the front line, and the former Great Qin could not support a protracted war. In recent years, Li Chen has popularized new grain varieties in Daqin, vigorously developed commerce, and built infrastructure projects, and now Daqin's national strength has been developing rapidly. Now Great Qin's national strength is not as good as it was back then, and it can fully support a large-scale war.

"This battle has started, and I don't know how long it will take to come back, but I'm afraid that I won't see the child born." Li Chen sighed and said.

"State affairs are important, I believe our baby will be able to understand his father." Ying Yue squeezed Li Chen's hand and comforted.

"Hey, let me look at the kids now." Li Chen said.

"Look at the child now, the child hasn't been born yet, how do you look at it?" Ying Yue's big eyes were sparkling, and she was a little confused.

However, Ying Yue soon knew Li Chen's method of watching the child in advance.

......

......

(Three thousand words are omitted here, the words of the reader's brother: dog author, you write, you write, three thousand words is just a dime, Lao Tzu is not short of this money.) )

Baby in the womb: "Did Daddy come to see me?" ”

Baby in the womb: "Daddy is so disgusting, he actually spits." ”

Three days later, Xianyang City Gate.

Early in the morning, 30,000 Shenwu troops had already assembled at the gate of the city. Fighting on the steppe is about mobility, so these 30,000 troops are all cavalry. The black dragon flag fluttered, and there were occasional neighing of horses in the army.

The First Emperor still stood on the city wall to see off the soldiers, just like the soldiers who went out of the city to greet the triumphant soldiers from Sanhan that day, the First Emperor has always given enough respect to these soldiers who fought bloodily for the Great Qin.

Li Chen stood at the front of the army, followed by Wang Li, Fan Xuyingbu, and the three of them. Wang Li is now Li Chen's chief of guard, so he naturally wants to follow Li Chen with him. Fan Xu was Li Chen's confidant and Li Chen's most trusted general, while Yingbu was the best at cavalry combat in the entire Qin army.

Li Chen picked up the wine bowl and said to the 30,000 army in front of him: "Ladies and gentlemen, in this battle, we will definitely unify the grassland tribes and show the true colors of Great Qin. Ladies and gentlemen, I wish us a speedy victory. ”

"Soldiers, let's fill this cup."

"Bang."

After Li Chen finished speaking, he drank all the wine in the bowl, and the wine bowl was slammed to the ground.

"Bang, bang, bang."

"Dominate the grassland and return triumphantly."

"Dominate the grassland and return triumphantly."

"Dominate the grassland and return triumphantly."

The soldiers of the Shenwu Army also drank all the wine in the bowl, leaving not a drop left, and then slammed the wine bowl on the ground. Sissy

Yes, this wave dropped more than 30,000 wine bowls, and it promoted a wave of Xianyang City's GDP in disguise.

"Fan Xu, Yingbu, lead the army to set off." Li Chen commanded.

Watching the army set off, Li Chen led Fusu towards the city wall.

"Yue'er, take good care of yourself." Li Chen stroked Ying Yue's stomach and said softly.

"Hmm." Ying Yue replied softly, a little choked in her tone.

Without saying anything more, Li Chen said to the First Emperor: "Your Majesty, we will be victorious." ”

"I believe in you." The First Emperor replied solemnly.

Li Chen took Wang Li and strode down the city wall, and at this time Wang Li was already waiting under the city wall with the Shenji battalion.

"Wang Li, protect your brother." On the city wall, Ying Yue stretched out her head and shouted.

"Sister Yue, don't worry." Wang Li responded loudly.

On the city wall, the father and daughter watched Li Chen leave, and the first emperor looked at Ying Yue's stomach and asked with some guilt: "Yue'er, you hate your father." ”

"What the father said, he not only belongs to his daughter, but also to Daqin." Ying Yue wiped her tears and said softly.

"Let's move back to the palace tomorrow." The First Emperor said in a soft tone.

"I'll have to wait at home for him to come back." Ying Yue refused.

In this way, Li Chen and the three of them have already caught up with the army.

"Teacher, that day was before you. The father also called the squire of the household department and the Ministry of Work in charge of grain, grass and ordnance, and the father asked them a word respectively. The father asked the squire of the Ministry of Works if he had enough ordnance, and then asked the squire of the household department if there was enough food and grass. Their answers also strengthened the belief of their father's expedition, and his father was still old after all, and he couldn't wait. Fusu muttered.

"Since Your Majesty wants to fight, then we must fight this battle beautifully." Li Chen said.

Hetao Plain, Moon City.

At this time, the news of Li Chen's dispatch had been sent to Yuecheng through the Flying Eagle Transmission, and at this time, the Chinese army tent in Yuecheng was already in chaos.

"Li Chen, just a hairy boy, how can Your Majesty let this person command the army."

"That's right, a kid who hasn't fought a few battles, how to do it."

"Actually, even Meng Shuai and Wang Shuai have to be controlled by him, how can this work."

In the Yuecheng military camp, some of the generals under Meng Tian in the big tent of the Chinese army shouted one after another, obviously a little unconvinced by Li Chen's order to control Meng Tian and Wang Ben.

"What are you yelling about, what are you yelling about, this is a barracks, not a vegetable market." Meng Yi held his sword and strode in.

"It's not Meng Shuai, you look at the order, let a hairy boy restrain you and Wang Shuai, isn't this nonsense?" A general under Meng Tian handed over the letter in his hand and said unconvinced.

"Maotou boy, you kid has lived for more than thirty years, why haven't I seen you dominate the three Koreas. On the merits of the war, which of you can compare with the glory of Luhou, this is your majesty's order, put away all your contempt for me. The battle was not very good, and all the brains grew to the sky. Also, from today onwards, there is only Li Shuai here, not Meng Shuai. After being a soldier for so many years, the military orders are like a mountain, and the upper and lower levels are still unclear? Meng Yi looked at his generals and said in a stern tone.

In the next few days, Li Chen led the Shenwu army to move forward on the highway, and sure enough, after having this road, the speed of the army's advance was not much faster. Moreover, there are service stations along the way, which can also solve the problem of rest for soldiers.

Li Chen was busy marching here, and Wang Ben of the Great Wall Garrison Corps also arranged the guards, and then hurried towards Yuecheng. He also received a military order from the First Emperor and hurried to report to Yuecheng. You must know that their Great Wall garrison corps is much more boring than Meng Tian's side, and they haven't fought a big battle for many years.
