In the study, Deng Yulong walked back and forth, his brain was running quickly and efficiently, and sometimes he looked at the map.

In the past month, he has drawn up a relatively complete combat plan, and now he will reorganize it to check whether there are any deficiencies and whether there are any areas for improvement.

Deng Yulong must make 120 percent efforts to tilt the balance of victory as much as possible on his side.

This is a war with no way out, and if it succeeds, it will embark on the road of leapfrogging, and if it fails, it will only die.

Deng Yulong devoted himself wholeheartedly, only the battle plan and war deduction were in his mind, and before he knew it, it was evening.

There was a knock on the door.

"General, it's time to eat!" Apricot's voice came in.

Hearing such a voice, Deng Yulong's thoughts stopped, and he suddenly felt a little hungry in his stomach.

Coming to the dining room, eating dinner alone, Xing'er and Chunlan stood aside respectfully.

The meals were made according to Deng Yulong's requirements, based on his tastes. The staple food is small rice, and the dishes are mutton soup and stewed chicken, these two dishes are enough, and Deng Yulong can't eat so much.

In the huge general's mansion, there is only one master, Deng Yulong, no parents, no wife and children, and it looks lonely.

In his previous life, Deng Yulong was still a bachelor, but he still had his parents and family; Traveling to this time and space, he is still a single, a lonely person, he doesn't feel anything when he is busy in the army, and after returning to the mansion, it is the home of this era, and he is alone at home, and the maid and servant are naturally not considered family.

It's time to marry a wife, so that the family can be a little popular, and this is like a home.

In his previous life, Deng Yulong was just an ordinary person, living in a rented house in an urban village in a big city, and if he wanted to find a wife, he had to spend some effort to pursue it, or go on a blind date.

It's different here, this is the ancient times when men were superior to women, not to mention that he was a strong man of the times, and it was easy to find a woman.

Thinking of this, Deng Yulong's eyes moved to Xing'er and Chunlan on the left.

At this time, Chunlan was lowering her head, but Xing'er was looking at him, the two looked at each other, Xing'er was busy lowering her head, and the maid couldn't look at the master.

These two girls are not bad, with medium and upper appearances, Chunlan is introverted and usually more taciturn; Xing'er usually looks a little more sunny and cheerful, but Deng Yulong faintly feels that there seems to be a faint sadness between Xing'er's eyebrows.

Although the word "door" only existed in the Yuan Dynasty, this kind of rule began in the Western Zhou Dynasty, like a status master who fell in love with a maid, of course, you can let her be your woman, but generally you can only be a concubine, and you must have a right wife.

Deng Yulong doesn't care about the so-called right people, what he values most is whether he likes it or not.

However, now is not the time to start a family, he has served as a general for more than seven months, he has not yet experienced the baptism of war, and he has fully proved his worth, and he must lay a good foundation in his career first, and he will talk about marriage and family later.

After eating enough, Chunlan cleaned up the table, Deng Yulong went back to the study, and Xing'er followed behind.

"I'll take a bath later, you step back first."

Xing'er didn't go out immediately, but only heard her say: "General, you are about to go on an expedition, and the slave believes that you will be able to defeat the three Qin traitors Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Peng, and return the three Qins." ”

As she spoke, her voice and expression were out of order, and her eyes moistened.

"What's wrong?" Deng Yulong was a little surprised, remembering that he had felt something wrong before, perhaps because of a sad experience.

"General, the slave and maid are from Hanzhong, and my father and brother were originally both petty officials in the capital Xianyang. Later, the princes of Kwantung raised troops against Qin, the king of Han invaded Guanzhong, and the king of Qin surrendered. The king of Han treated the Qin royal family and officials favorably, and he did not commit any offence against the people. How do you know that Xiang Yukeng killed twenty soldiers, and after entering the customs, he slaughtered the Qin royal family and officials, burned the palace offices, trampled on the people, and his father and brother were not spared. ”

Speaking of this, crystal tears flowed from Apricot Child's cheeks.

"Xiang Yu is the great enemy of the Qin people, and Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Peng are traitors to the Qin people. General, you must not let go of these three Qin traitors, the slave and maid hope that the great revenge can be avenged. ”

Tears flowed from Xing'er's cheeks, and in her heart, there was both sadness and hatred, and even more expectations for the general.

Unexpectedly, Xing'er has such a life experience, Deng Yulong has been busy with military affairs since he became a general, and he has only lived in the mansion for 17 days in total, and he has neither much time nor thought of getting to know the maids around him.

After Liu Bang entered Hanzhong, Xiao He recruited people from all walks of life, including the maids of the Han Palace's palace and the mansion of the main personnel, with a total of dozens of people, and Xing'er and Chunlan were all selected and dispatched by Xiao He to Deng Yulong.

Deng Yulong took a few steps forward to her, looking at Xing'er who was crying, her appearance was really pitiful, if she was in modern times, she must be handed a tissue to wipe her tears and comfort her, otherwise she would have failed too much to be a man.

"As a courtier relied on by the King of Han, I naturally want to sweep away all enemies for the King of Han, and it is my duty to take Guanzhong, and all your enemies will not be able to escape."

"General, after you set out on the expedition, the slaves and maids will pray for you day and night, bless you night and night, and wish you to behead the generals and raise the flag, kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and return triumphantly."

She trusted the master she served to do it.

Deng Yulong's intuition felt that this was Xing'er's heartfelt words, but the last four words were not used properly, and then he smiled: "There will be no triumphant return, after I capture Guanzhong, will I come back to this remote place?" King Han and I will definitely stay in Guanzhong. ”

"Yes, yes, it's the slave who said it wrong!"

Apricot couldn't help but feel embarrassed, but the original sadness also disappeared.

Deng Yulong said: "During my expedition, you just have to wait here for good news with peace of mind, and after Guanzhong is pacified, Prime Minister Xiao Cheng will definitely move to Guanzhong, and you will set off with him." ”

"The slave knows, don't bother the general!"

Apricot went out and closed the door.

She hated Xiang Yu, hated the three Qin traitors, and thousands of Qin people were the same, this is the current popular heart of the original Qin people, which can be fully utilized, and usually uses this kind of slogan to inspire the 80,000 newly recruited soldiers.

As the commander of the army, Deng Yulong naturally had to make use of all the factors that could be used, and he stayed in the mansion for two consecutive days, making final preparations for the campaign tactics.

The officers and soldiers of the Han Dynasty are preparing for the expedition.

In the various warehouses in Hanzhong, a large amount of grain is packed into bags, and there will be horse-drawn carts to transport it.

The 10,000 soldiers who were allocated to the Infant Irrigation and Li Merchants all reported for duty, and these people were mainly sword soldiers, but also equipped with other tools.
