Yuanhe, formerly known as Bald Hair Poqiang (Xianbei name He Douba), was originally the son of the bald hair of the King of Southern Liangjing, and surrendered to the Western Qin after the death of the Southern Liang, his brother and queen sister had secretly murdered the King of the Western Qin Dynasty to beg for the Blazing Pan, but was killed because of the incident, the bald Broken Qiang and the bald Bao Zhou had to flee to the Northern Wei Dynasty, and was given the surname Yuan by the Emperor Taizong of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and was named General Long Xiang and renamed Yuanhe.

Now Genga is serving as the deputy of the Woye Town Army as General Long Xiang, temporarily acting as the fifth general.

Yuanhe was originally a Xianbei person, and the ancestor bald Pi was surnamed Tuoba, which is the same root as the Tuoba clan of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and because Emperor Taizong of the Northern Wei Dynasty admired his talent when he was alive, he was included in the genealogy and regarded as a clan, so his status in the Northern Wei court was not low.

Xi Yan took a sip of wine and said to the two: "I heard that this Yuan He has some skills, whether it is fighting with the Rouran people or fighting with Hu Xia, he is brave and resolute, and he will personally fall into battle every time he encounters a strong enemy!" Brother Du, the next thing is for you to compete with Hua Mulan and Yuan He, are you sure to defeat the two of them? ”

Du Gui said proudly: "If it is about martial arts, I may not be as good as Hua Mulan and Yuanhe, but if I want to lead the troops to fight, I think I will not lose to them, and my right guard army has been fighting all year round, and the soldiers are all fierce and peerless, how can it be comparable to the army of Woye Town and Huaishuo Town, which have not experienced a big war?" ”

Liu Jizong laughed: "Hahaha, what Brother Du said is true, if my right guard can't even beat Woye Town and Huaishuo Town, what kind of face do you have?" Brother Du, I would like to congratulate you in advance on winning the first place in this three-army competition! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xi Yan also picked up the wine cup to toast.

Although Du Gui's face is thick, it is not so thick that he thinks that he has won before the fight starts, and he is modest: "If you haven't started the fight yet, if you want to congratulate you, it's not too late to wait until you win the first place!" Come, come, eat, drink! ”

At dusk, Hua Mulan came to the camp to find Zhao Junsheng after dinner, and happened to meet Zhao Junsheng who had just gone out outside the camp gate.

"Hey, Brother Junsheng, where are you going?"

Zhao Junsheng looked at it and hurriedly said, "I was about to look for you, I don't want you to come first!" Let's talk as we go! ”

"Good!"

The two walked side by side along the camp wall, and Zhao Junsheng asked, "Mulan, did you come to me today?" ”

Mulan said: "It's not for tomorrow's battle with Woye Town and the Right Guard!" I've already inquired, and this time I'm going to fight against the Du Guibu of the Right Guard Army and the Genga Department of Woye Town. I don't know much about the source of the Woye Town, but the Du Gui Department of the Right Guard Army is all elite, and they have experienced many major battles, and the generals are all very fierce, and it is difficult to defeat him! ”

Zhao Junsheng nodded and said, "You are right! Today, you have used the decapitation tactic, Du Gui's personal strength is much worse than yours, if you follow him, he will prevent you from using the decapitation tactic again! So this trick will definitely not work, if you attack hard, the combat strength of the soldiers under your command is not as good as the right guard under Du Gui's command! ”

Hua Mulan frowned when she heard this, "Yes, against Du Guibu, my chances of winning are slim!" ”

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while and said: "If you really face Du Guibu, it will definitely not work, but if you use special tactics, it is not completely out of chance!" ”

"Brother Junsheng, what is the way to defeat Du Guibu?" Hua Mulan looked at Zhao Junsheng with a longing face.

Zhao Junsheng said: "I think you also know that although Du Gui's men and horses are not equipped with heavy armor, the men and horses are also wearing iron armor, and their defensive power far exceeds that of ordinary cavalry, but these iron armor is heavy, and the war horse can withstand a short period of weight sprint, if it takes a long time, it will exhaust its strength and lose speed, so if you want to defeat such a cavalry, there is only one way, that is, to avoid its edge, drag him down, and wait until he is exhausted before attacking!" ”

Hua Mulan's eyes lit up when she heard this, Zhao Junsheng's method was obviously designed for the weakness of the ironclad cavalry, it seems that strong defense is not only an advantage, but also has its shortcomings!

She quickly thought of a way to deal with Du Guibu, and asked: "I don't know much about the situation of Yuanhe in Woye Town, but I have seen Yuanhe a few times, looking at his figure and spirit, he must also be a strong and brave person in martial arts, I heard that he has followed the emperor many times in the past few days, and has accumulated a lot of combat exploits and experience in conquest, I am afraid that it is not so easy to defeat him, I think this person is more difficult to deal with than Du Gui!" ”

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "Mulan, you put too much pressure on yourself, you don't want to think about it, Woye Town is also a few recruits, even if Yuan He has great ability, he can't train a cavalry into an invincible division in these few months!" In terms of the time of training, they should not be too proficient in tactical tactics, and they will use nothing more than riding and shooting, which you and your soldiers will also do, if you face him, I estimate that he is likely to fight you in person, I have inquired, this Yuan He is also a person who does not admit defeat, with his temperament, he is only afraid of fighting with you alone when fighting, so you must be mentally prepared! ”

Regarding the situation of the Fertile Field Army and the Right Guard Army, Zhao Junsheng had already asked Lu Xuanbo to inquire and spy clearly, in terms of training, the progress and degree of training of the Fertile Field Army were not as good as the Huaishuo Army, so in terms of overall combat effectiveness, the Fertile Field Army was slightly weaker than the Huaishuo Army, and it was not easy for Yuan He to win.

Hua Mulan said: "I heard that on the battlefield, those who take the initiative to call the battle generals generally have a very high opinion of their martial arts, if Yuan He really wants to fight generals, presumably the martial arts are good, and it is not easy for me to defeat him!" ”

Zhao Junsheng stopped and turned to look at Mulan, and put his hands on her shoulders: "Mulan, personal martial arts and courage don't play much role on the battlefield where thousands of troops and horses fight, and the courage of the generals is the enemy of ten thousand people, and the courage of the martial artist is finally inferior!" If he really wants to find you to fight alone, if you are not sure, you can refuse, it will not lose your face, and it will not let the morale of the soldiers drop, everyone will arrange their troops to fight in a dignified and upright manner! ”

Hua Mulan was silent for a moment, and then smiled: "Okay, I know!" By the way, Brother Junsheng, I used to only practice martial arts and archery, and I was not familiar with the arrangement of troops, and since I arrived at the barracks, I knew that I was only shallow, especially after becoming a general, this feeling became more and more obvious, I want to ask Brother Junsheng to help me find some military books and war strategies to study, I don't know if it is possible? ”

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "You want to read the war book, this is easy, you come with me!" ”

Hua Mulan followed Zhao Junsheng back to the baggage camp in confusion, and under Zhao Junsheng's guidance, the two came to a camp tent behind the tooth tent.

There were two guards standing in front of the tent, and Zhao Junsheng opened the curtain and said to Mulan, "Come in!" ”

Hua Mulan followed Zhao Junsheng into the camp tent, only to see bookshelves around the camp tent, and scrolls of bamboo slips, wooden slips, book scrolls, albums, parchment rolls, and silk were stacked on the shelves.

Zhao Junsheng introduced: "Mulan, you also know that our family was born in the past, and we have no background, and my father and son have spent all their wealth collecting ancient books and books, all of which are here!" You can read whatever book you like, you can take it back and read it, but you must return it after reading it, because it is full of unique books, and if you lose it, you will have it! By the way, you have to see the war book battle strategy here! ”

Hua Mulan walked in the direction of Zhao Junsheng's fingers, all the books on this row of shelves were military books and battle strategies, a total of more than 100 volumes, she took out one volume, untied the string and unfolded it, it said "Wei Xuanzi", this is the first volume.

Hua Mulan hurriedly glanced at it a few times, and grabbed it in her hand as if she had found a treasure. I took out another volume and opened it to see that it was a volume of formation diagrams, recording ten common military formations and ways of changing with each other.

"Brother Junsheng, I'll read these two volumes first!" Hua Mulan held these two volumes of war books and war strategies tightly in her hands.

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "Of course you can, but you are all cavalry in your hands now, this army formation map and the way of change are only applicable to the infantry, and it will not play much role in tomorrow's battle, but it should be able to use it when you go to Huaishuo Town to train the infantry again in the future!" ”

"Well, I'll take a look first!"

Zhao Junsheng sent Mulan out of the camp gate, and watched her go away before turning around and returning to the camp.

Tuoba Yuling flashed out from the corner of the wall next to him and saw Zhao Junsheng turn around and enter the camp, and then turned his head to see the back of Hua Mulan leaving, "Hmph, the open and honest private meeting in the military camp is really unreasonable!"

The next day, the second building of Huaishuo Town in Mulan, the fifth building of Woye Town in Yuanhe, and the third building of Du Gui's Right Guard Army started a duel on the school field of the right guard army.

After drawing lots, the third building of Du Gui's right guard army turned out to be a bye, and the second building of Huaishuo Town in Mulan and the fifth building of Woye Town in Yuanhe fought in the first round.

Genga is twenty-five years old this year, with a mighty appearance, a broad forehead, a lion nose and a wide mouth, the beard on his lips is upturned to the sides, and the short beard on his jaw is dense and thick.

I saw him riding a horse and standing in front of the military formation, and he took a few steps forward and shouted to Mulan: "Where is the flower building opposite, please come out and talk!" ”

Mulan's eyes wandered, her left hand shook the reins, and the war horse ran forward a few steps and stopped.

"I don't know what General Yuan has to teach you?"

Tens of thousands of soldiers and generals around the school field who watched the battle, including An Yuan and others on the parade platform, heard Yuan He say: "I have long heard that Huaishuo Town has long heard that in addition to a great young hero, in just a few months, he has become the master of a building from a civilian messenger, and the Tingwei Hua General has superb martial arts, it is difficult to have an opponent. ”

The generals who watched the battle knew that he was going to fight with Mulan, and the fighting generals were also the key to determining the outcome of a battle.

"Roar, roar, roar······ War, war, war······" The soldiers and generals who watched the battle shouted and coaxed.
