The next day or two was quiet. Qin Mubai and Garqinling seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they jointly decided that this would be a protracted battle, and there was no need to rush for a while. So after the first battle, both sides took time to recuperate.

Not to mention the defeat of the battle and the loss of troops, the confidence and morale of the Kansai army have indeed been affected a lot, which can be seen from Hou Junji's performance. As a result, Qin Mubai held several military meetings in succession to analyze the gains and losses of the first battle and make future plans, mainly to stabilize the general's heart.

Only when the heart is stabilized can the army's heart be stabilized. Now it seems that there is still some effect. The young Kansai Army, although inexperienced and immature, has its advantages and strengths - the newborn calf is not afraid of the tiger, lose, come again!

In the evening, Xue Wanjun returned to the camp with a team of sentry horses, walked into the tent dejectedly, and sighed repeatedly. Qin Mubai asked him why this was the case, and he replied: "Young marshal, our army lost the first battle, and the area around the Qingluoyuan battlefield became the sphere of influence of Tubo. In the past two days, I tried to clean up the battlefield and bring back the remains of the fallen soldiers, but I tried many ways to return in vain. How good is that? Could it be that the soldiers who watched our soldiers turn into lonely ghosts in the wilderness? ”

Qin Mubai frowned and said, "This is indeed a problem...... The loss of war horses and armor is not enough, but we can't help but let the martyrs of our Kansai Army not even have a chance to settle down. ”

"Why don't we fight them again? Or launch a raid? Dead or alive first take the Qingluo Plain, and then talk about the rest! Xue Wanjun said.

"Not necessarily." Qin Mubai pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, I will write a letter to the Garqin Mausoleum and send someone to the Tubo camp to discuss this matter." ”

"Huh?" Xue Wanjun's eyes widened in surprise, "That guy, how can you agree?" ”

"Maybe so? Try it, but if it doesn't work, say no more. After that, Qin Mubai decisively took up the pen and wrote a letter, and immediately selected a fine pawn who knew how to speak and sent it to the Tubo military camp.

It was just night, and the messenger's pawn returned to the Tang army camp and said that the Garqin Mausoleum had agreed. Moreover, tomorrow he will take the initiative to send someone to send the ashes of the fallen Tang Army soldiers who have already been collected!

Xue Wanjun and the others were stunned on the spot - "How is this possible?" This is definitely not the style of the Hu people! They should have cut off the ears of our soldiers and brought them back to ask for a reward, or they should have carried the corpses around with spears to show off their might! ”

"Yes! Tubo is brutal and cold-blooded, and if he doesn't abuse the remains of our fallen soldiers, it would be polite, why did he collect the corpses and cremate them together? ”

Listening to the discussion of the generals, Qin Mubai was silent, and said secretly in his heart: Garqinling, you are really different from ordinary generals, you do have a bit of a general's style, no wonder people like Hou Junji are full of praise for you behind your back. Although I know that you are not doing this out of good intentions, most of it is to buy people's hearts or reduce the resistance of your invasion of the Central Plains in the future...... But I still have to thank you!

According to the agreement, tomorrow the Garqin Mausoleum will send a team of about 100 people to transport the ashes of the fallen soldiers of the Tang Army by yak carts. As soon as the news came out, there was a lot of discussion in the Tang army camp.

At night, it's time for the army to sleep. With a full heart, Qin Mubai returned to the back house of the handsome tent. Seeing that the lights were still on in the room of the Yutai sisters, he called the door and walked in.

Both of them are still in a coma, and their lives and deaths are unpredictable. Her sister waited at the bedside every night, although she did not cry and red eyes like ordinary women, but worry and distress were also written all over her beautiful and heroic face.

"How's it going?" Qin Mubai stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

Tantai Dandan shook his head, silent, and frowned.

"Why don't you send her to Lanzhou? After all, conditions here are limited. When I went to Lanzhou, I could find a way to invite a famous doctor for treatment, and the recuperation environment should be better. Qin Mubai said.

"No need." Tantai Dandan shook his head, picked up his sister's hand and held it in the palm of his hand, then put it on his face, and said softly, "My sisters and sisters have been floating in the rivers and lakes since childhood, and they have experienced a lot of wind and waves, and it is not once or twice that they wander in life and death. I trust my sister that she will never leave me alone. ”

"......" Qin Mubai was speechless for a moment, sighed lightly, and said, "My fault." ”

"What's wrong with the young marshal?" Tantai Dandan carefully put his sister's hand into the futon, smiled slightly, and smiled sadly, "If it weren't for the young marshal, my sisters might have died by the Yamen knife and axe by now, no matter how good they are, they are just an indecent killer living in a dark corner." can be an upright person for a few days, and he can also live in a high position in the imperial city, and now he is still killing the enemy...... Even if they sacrifice their lives for the country, my sisters have no regrets. ”

Qin Mubai raised his eyelids lightly, and a surprised expression flashed on his face.

Tantai Dandan smiled slightly, "What, the young marshal is surprised?" ”

"Sort of." Qin Mubai didn't deny it, and smiled and said, "Although I have known you two sisters for a long time, I haven't had a deep friendship all along, to be honest, I really don't know much about you." ”

"And now?"

"I know a little bit about it." Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Every time you slaughter more dogs, you are the most negative reader. Although this statement is not absolutely biased, it is appropriate for you sisters. ”

Tantai Dandan blinked a few times in a daze, "Young marshal...... Is this praising us or scolding us? ”

"Haha, of course it's a compliment!" Qin Mubai couldn't help laughing.

"Sorry...... I don't read much, I don't understand much. Tantai Dandan rarely showed a hint of shame, and his face was a little red.

Qin Mubai glanced at her a few times, a sassy woman wearing a military armor and heroic spirit, showing such a smile, it was really indescribably charming and gentle. He smiled and nodded, and said, "You are now a hundred cavalry officers, and you are in the palace palace, so it doesn't hurt to read a little more when you have time." ”

"I can't find a suitable teacher...... "I can't find a suitable teacher," Tantai Dandan asked in a low and tentative voice, "Or, when the battle is over, if the young marshal has some free time, he will come and teach us two sisters to read?" Anyway, now, His Majesty the Emperor has assigned my two sisters to Her Royal Highness Princess Gaoyang, and they are considered to be the retainers of the young marshal......"

"yes, yes!" Qin Mubai agreed without thinking.

"Young marshal...... Are you serious? At that moment, a faint voice came from the bed.

Qin Mubai and Tantai Dandan glanced at each other, and at the same time looked over there in surprise, sure enough, it was Tantai who woke up!

"Sister! You're awake! Tantai Dandan hurriedly pounced, held her hand nervously and in surprise, and shouted, "You're awake, awake!" ”

Tears of joy!

"Okay Dandan, don't scare your sister. She had just woken up and was very weak. Qin Mubai walked over and squatted down, patted Tantai Dandan's shoulder, and saw that both of them were smiling at her. Although she was still very weak and had a hard time even opening her eyes, the smile on her face was clearly quiet and warm.

"Shuangshuang, good for life and illness. What I promise you, it will count. Qin Mubai said, "When you recover, I will teach you to read." ”

"Great!" Tantai Dandan hurriedly stood up, and immediately knelt down on one knee against Qin Mubai, clasped his fists and gave a military salute, and said, "On behalf of my sister, thank you young marshal!" Being a young marshal's student is her greatest wish and extravagance! ”

"Oh? And what's going on? Qin Mubai couldn't help but smile and reached out to help her up.

The people on the sickbed were both anxious, and said with a sigh of relief: "Sister, don't talk nonsense!" ”

Qin Mubai shook his head and smiled, and said, "Okay, this kind of trivial matter doesn't have to be serious. Both of them have just woken up and need to rest and recuperate. I'll leave without bothering for now, and by the way, I'll call the military doctor to take a look and prescribe a few more medicines. ”

"Thank you, young marshal!"

Leaving the sisters' room, Qin Mubai called a sergeant to call the military doctor, and prepared to go back to the room to rest.

Both woke up, and it seemed that at least their lives were in danger, which made Qin Mubai's mood a little better. When I returned to my room, I saw a person standing at the door, it was actually Princess Wencheng Li Xueyan.

"It's so late at night, why doesn't the princess rest, is there something to do with me?" Qin Mubai asked.

"Mu Bai, you forgot, you haven't changed the medicine today!" Li Xueyan raised the medicine bottle in her hand and said, "This is not good!" ”

"Heh, if you don't say it, I'll forget." Qin Mubai said with a smile, "Today's busy military affairs have not stopped for a moment. However, I only suffered a minor injury and seems to be recovering well, at least I don't have to walk on crutches. ”

"Then I don't care. All I know is that now I am a military doctor and you are the wounded. Healer, parents, you must listen to me. Li Xueyan smiled and said, "Enter the house and change the dressing!" ”

"Okay, Doctor Li, please!" Qin Mubai smiled and invited her into the room.

As soon as he entered the house, Qin Mubai hesitated...... The scratches on the face are easy to do, but how to deal with the knife wounds on the thighs? Is it possible to take off your pants in front of her?

"What are you waiting for?" Li Xueyan turned her back to Qin Mubai and said while fiddling with the medicine bottle.

"This ...... Snow goose. Or do I do it myself? Qin Mubai said.

"Don't worry, I've learned everything, and I'll be careful not to hurt you." Li Xueyan obviously didn't understand, and said while seriously adjusting the medicine.

"It's inconvenient!" Qin Mubai couldn't help but laugh and whispered.

Li Xueyan was stunned, and looked back at Qin Mubai, "What's the inconvenience?" ”

Qin Mubai pointed to his thighs, and Li Xueyan's face turned red in an instant. Hurriedly turning her head, she forced her composure and said, "The old gentleman taught me that there are only patients in front of the doctor, and there are no men or women...... You—You don't have to scruple! ”

"Then why are you so nervous?" Qin Mubai smiled evilly, which pot is not opened.

"Why!" Li Xueyan's heart was blocked, and her mouth hardened, "Don't be full of thoughts...... Change, hurry! ”

"Then I can ...... Really taken off? ”

"Take off ...... Take off! ”

"Let's close the door first!"

Li Xueyan, a girl who had not left the cabinet, suddenly turned red to the base of her neck, "What are you doing when you close the door?" ”

"Is it possible for me to take off my pants in public?" Qin Mubai said confidently, "There are teams of morale patrolling outside here at any time, but I am their boss, wouldn't it be a loss of face for them to see me?" ”

Li Xueyan couldn't wait to dig a hole in the ground, so she hurriedly stepped forward and closed the door, took a deep breath and said, "Okay now?" ”

"yes, okay. Then I'...... But it's off, Dr. Li? ”

“…… Hurry up! ”

Qin Mubai was happy in his heart as if he was mischievous: You dare to see it, I don't dare to take it off yet?

So he took off only a pair of big pants, half lying down and half sitting on the handsome chair like a big man, lifted his injured leg high, and said, "Okay, come!" ”

Li Xueyan's heart was about to jump out of her throat, and she hesitated for a long time before she mustered up the courage to come forward, and forcibly refused to look at Qin Mubai's half-naked body, but this was obviously impossible.

The well-proportioned and muscular male body, full of wild and masculine power, is naked in front of her untouched girl...... Li Xueyan was a little flustered for a while.

"Or do I do it myself?" Qin Mubai smiled calmly.

"No, I'll come." Li Xueyan, who wants to make some "contributions", competes with herself. Calm her mind, she went to untie the gauze bandage on Qin Mubai's right thigh.

During yesterday's battle, Qin Mubai fell into a heavy encirclement and brawl for a while in order to kill the main general of the snake pan array, and was accidentally slashed in the leg by a scimitar of a Tibetan cavalryman. Fortunately, he wore a good armor, and the other party's knife was not on the move, so it was just some small injuries to the flesh and muscles. Li Xueyan carefully removed the bandage layer by layer, and couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the blood stains and blood scabs on it.

In the past two days, she followed the old military doctor everywhere to treat the wounded soldiers, in fact, she had seen everything, and she shouldn't have made such a fuss and was upset. But when she thought that it was Qin Mubai on the other side now, she couldn't help but feel flustered......

"Whew-" Li Xueyan's heart was in a mess, and her hand was slightly light, and a small piece of blood scab was torn, so painful that Qin Mubai couldn't help but take a breath of cool air.

Li Xueyan suddenly panicked, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! What do you think? Does it hurt, okay? ”

"It's okay, you continue." Qin Mubai smiled indifferently.

Finally untied the bandage, Li Xueyan couldn't help but exclaim when she saw the wound, "Ah, it's broken!" It's all a little pus! Who told you to run around without changing your dressing all day! ”

"That can't be helped." Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Don't make a fuss, compared to those stumps and broken bones, what kind of injury am I?" Irrigation! ”

"You have to suck this puss before you can take the medicine." Li Xueyan said, "You bear with it! ”

"Wait a minute!" Qin Mubai hurriedly said, "Are you sure you can do it?" ”

“…… Unafraid! Yes! Li Xueyan stared at the wound and nodded decisively.

"Then you come."

Li Xueyan carefully took care of the wound for a while, and without frowning, the cherry red lips sucked up.

Qin Mubai's heart trembled, and he couldn't stand it anymore...... How disgusting is that!

If it were me, I wouldn't have done it......

After sucking more than ten mouthfuls in a row, a copper basin beside him was full of foul pus and blood, Li Xueyan finally stopped, and then quickly wrapped Qin Mubai's wound. Until this time, she, who had not said a word and had not looked up to look at Qin Mubai, suddenly ran out of the door and vomited desperately.

Qin Mubai was afraid that Li Xueyan would be embarrassed, so he sat in the room and didn't go out to look, sighed softly and said secretly, "Soft on the outside and strong on the inside, what a strong woman!" …… It's hard for you! ”

Li Xueyan vomited for a while before returning to the house, smiled a little pale, began to pack up the medicine bottles and other things, and said, "Mu Bai, you are so resting." I'll come early tomorrow to change your medicine again, ...... in the afternoon."

"Snow geese." Qin Mubai called out and interrupted her words.

"Huh?" Li Xueyan turned her head and looked at him.

Qin Mubai just smiled and didn't speak again. But this smile made Li Xueyan's heart beat wildly, and she even blushed.

"You...... Whatever you want, just ......," she asked, a little flustered.

"When the battle is over, if I can survive, you ......"

"I ...... What the? ”

"Will you marry me?"

“！！！” Li Xueyan suddenly trembled a few times, hurriedly turned her head and didn't dare to look at him, and then the whole person froze.

His face was hot and hot, and his mind was blank.

"Huh?" Qin Mubai deliberately wanted to pierce the layer of window paper, so he simply said, "If you don't say it, then you agree by default?" ”

"I didn't say that!" Li Xueyan said hurriedly.

"Oh, that's not going to say yes." Qin Mubai's tone was very disappointed.

"I didn't say either! …… I won't tell you! Marriage events, how can it be child's play! Li Xueyan was simply embarrassed, hurriedly picked up the medicine bottle and other things, and fled in a hurry.

"Huh!" Qin Mubai couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, and said secretly: Li Daozong, Li Daozong, you are obviously chasing ducks to the shelves, and you have to force me to go on it! …… However, Li Xueyan is indeed a good woman, and she is obviously interested in me. In that case, I had to reluctantly do it......
