Chapter 197: Armored Sheep
Chapter 198: Armored Sheep
YE Tao,. Dai Qiong will accompany them and begin his duties as Dai's liaison officer in the Jinglu Mansion. Dai Qiong's military intelligence department has been fully handed over to Chi Lei, and now Dai Qiong, the leader of the younger generation, will begin to challenge his potential in other areas.
Ye Tao and Tan Weixin will go to Suiyuan City first, and then go to Ningyuan City after understanding the surrounding situation. Ningyuan City will be the location of Jinglufu in the next few years. Although Ningyuan City is a little far away from Thunder Cliff, which has gradually become the trading center of Yunzhou, Suiyuan City, which is the coordination center of Dai's Yunzhou's various businesses, and Dalun Mountain and Tianling Fort, it seems that only Ningyuan City, as a quasi-military city, can meet the needs of Jinglufu to strengthen its ties with the tribes, strengthen its rule over the grassland tribes, move the ruling center of Yunzhou northward with the support of the entire Dongping, and carry out the multifaceted deployment of the Northern Liao economically and militarily. Naturally, this was only before the establishment of a new city. It is not known when a new city will be built in terms of site selection, funding and design plans, and human and material resources.
"Your Excellency, are you going back to the carriage?" Wu Ping'an cautiously approached Ye Tao and said.
Ye Tao rarely rode a horse, riding the "Night Star" with a better temper in front of the team, walking side by side with Dai Qiong, chatting on a relaxed topic. Ye Tao did feel very relaxed and happy, but for those guards, Ye Tao running in the open air seemed to be less reassuring than Ye Tao in the carriage. Especially the road from Tianling Fort to Thunder Cliff is not an endless grassland. A large part of the road was carved out in dense forests. The feeling of sunlight shining through the treetops and through the dense branches is pleasant, but it's not fun if there is even the slightest bit of danger in the middle of that comfort.
"It's okay, the people around here are all controlled by the Dai family. Didn't Master Qiong say that? There's also a training camp for Dai clan soldiers nearby. Ye Tao glanced at Dai Qiong, waved his hand, and said indifferently.
"My lord, there is a military flag on the hill ahead." A sergeant ran back from the front and reported: "It seems to be ...... It seems to be the Overseer Command Banner of the Blood Qiqi Army......"
Is it Dai Yun? Except for Dai Yun, no one has used this banner yet, whether it is Tan Weiming, Qiu Haohui, or now Zou Shuangwen, these people who have worked in the position of Overseer of the Blood Qi Army have never used the Overseer Command Banner of the Blood Qi Army. It seems that they prefer to set up their own flags, and only Dai Yun, who has never used them during her long tenure as Overseers, has adopted this white, embroidered blue thorn horseshoe emblem with silk threads, and a banner with blue trim as her own...... It seems to be so far.
"Let's go, let's see!" Ye Tao saw the road leading to the top of the mountain in front of him. Pick up the reins of the horse and gallop first. The guards hurriedly followed, but instead wore a dome and beckoned the entire convoy to slow down.
At the top of the hill there is a small but well-stocked camp. And on the side of the camp, a gazebo was erected, in which it was built. Dai Yun took off his armor and laid it out neatly to the side.
She was wearing a blue-gray Blood Qi Army style, but a separate custom-made military uniform, after all, although there was a gradual increase in female non-commissioned officers and officers in the Blood Qi Army because of a precedent like Dai Yun, it had become a tradition for female officers and non-commissioned officers to order all their military uniforms. This uniform, which was used to be worn under armor, was made of a double layer of thick-woven cotton. The placket is fastened not with buttons, but with delicate parts made of brass that resemble small latches, and the specially designed uniform can be perfectly adapted to the curves of the body. In terms of practicality, this can make the fit between the armor and the body better, and this military uniform also makes the majestic or beautiful body shape appear more prominent and heroic.
And now, Dai Yun, who had just taken off his armor, had a military uniform that fit perfectly on his body. The neckline, back, and cuffs were soaked with sweat, and the coiled hair was slightly loosened at the back of the head. Finely shredded hair sticks to the damp neck...... And these imperfect details did not detract from the charm of such a peculiar woman as Dai Yun, but they made Dai Yun more and more real, heroic and attractive, after all, this kind of beauty, full of strength, health, and vitality, rarely appears in the young women of this era.
"Dai Dujun, it's been a long time, how are you lately?" Ye Tao smiled and arched his hand.
"Ye Jingluo. The lower officials failed to greet the adults in time. I hope you will forgive me. Dai Yun also smiled and said.
"I'm curious...... Why don't you see me in Tianlingbao? Instead, run here and wait? Ye Tao asked.
“…… Perhaps, it's just not ready to let people see the other side of me. Dai Yun said helplessly.
Ye Tao motioned to the guards not to come closer, and let them stand at a distance away with the soldiers Dai Yun had led. His conversation with Dai Yun is not a great secret, it is just a personal **. Naturally, this is not an era of appreciating individuals, and it is not a big deal to spy on others, although condemned.
"I just learned of His Majesty's arrangement...... You know I mean, for you and my arrangement. I've always said that this is a misunderstanding of our brotherhood, but overall, it's not a hard arrangement to accept, is it? Ye Tao adjusted his tone and said lightly.
"Well, yes." Dai Yun smiled, "Indeed, although it is somewhat unexpected, it is indeed quite difficult to make me hate you. ”
Perhaps realizing the extent to which this sentence could be understood or misunderstood, Dai Yun felt that his face was becoming more and more feverish. Naturally, in her current state, it doesn't seem that it is easy to see the flush on her face.
"Ready to join me?" Ye Tao asked, "Let's go to Thunder Cliff, Suiyuan and Ningyuan together." ”
Dai Yun hesitated a little, and then she said cautiously, "Still...... No need. Whatever you do, you'll have a lot of time in the future, and for now, I thought, I'd better stay away. …… I was afraid that I would become a joke. ”
Dai Yun knew a long time ago that he wasn't really the kind of woman who was so tough that he was invulnerable, and never was. She can do it when she needs to be strong and sane. But that doesn't mean she has to do that, she just likes to do that. When her father asked her if she was willing to marry Ye Tao, she was a little surprised.
Indeed, as Ye Tao and herself said, the previous interactions between them were only friends and brothers. At that moment, Dai Yun's mind went through a lot of pictures and thoughts, and considering her current age, identity, and especially the various martial arts she had achieved, she understood that it was a bit troublesome to marry herself. And Ye Tao? Seems to be the kind of person who is very interesting. His deeds in the past few years, as Ye Tao's friend, Dai Yun knew very well. A thought flashed through her mind at that time, and it might be good to be with Ye Tao. And she agreed.
Of course, the moment Dai Shikui walked out of the room, she began to regret it. Truly. If she really wants to find a husband and let part of her life be the same as most ordinary women, then Ye Tao is definitely a good choice. He is talented, funny, and has a lot of money. And he was able to treat her as an equal. But what if there is already someone like Tan Weixin in the family? Dai Yun would never believe that Tan Weixin was a woman who could not mind the existence of another woman in his family who was very talkative. Naturally, she wanted to have a good chat with Tan Weixin about this issue...... Sometime.
And then another question arises. When a woman's future is decided on herself, when she begins to can't help but imagine her future life. She began to discover more and more the side she had hidden, those times when she was wearing armor; When she thinks about how to train the soldiers under her command, how to use the unique competition system to fully tap the potential of everyone, and how to lead those elite soldiers to victory, she will never think about it...... For example, in the future, we will find ways to negotiate with a smart woman like Tan Weixin, such as the copulation that Dai Yun, who has been traveling on the grassland since he was six years old, will never be stranger—not between horses and animals, but those moaning and wheezing that emanate from the thin tent...... For a woman, especially a woman in this era, such imagination becomes more and more embarrassing with the accumulation of times and degrees.
Especially. These imaginations, some changes in Dai Yun caused by imagination, and what makes Dai Yun feel troublesome is that these changes are too far from the one she has been showing. Now, she prefers to keep it from others.
"Is Her Highness in those carriages below?" Dai Yun asked.
"Yes. …… Ready to go and say hello? Ye Tao asked with a smile.
Dai Yun nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "How is this all as it should be." ”
Naturally, she snapped her fingers, and the two maids and orderlies immediately ran over. quickly helped Dai Yun put on a full set of armor. Horses were brought in. And Wu Ping'an also brought his horse for Ye Tao.
When you put on and take off your armor, you can show off your charming posture much more attractively than when you wear a military uniform or armor. Wu Ping'an naturally knew about the marriage that Dai Yun and Ye Tao had decided these days, and he didn't dare to be disrespectful to one of the future "master mothers", so he hurriedly turned his head after taking the horse with him.
But in the blink of an eye, a voice: "The horse is good, I'll try" came, and the reins in his hand were actually taken away by Dai Yun. Dai Yun actually stepped onto Ye Tao's "Night Star" and rushed down the hill directly. And Ye Tao just wanted to take the reins from Dai Yun's orderly, but what he didn't expect was that Dai Yun's also very beautiful little white horse didn't give face at all, and turned around with a hoof. If it weren't for Ye Tao's fast flash, plus the two orderlies who were frightened and Wu Ping'an, who pounced on the little white horse together, Ye Tao would probably feel better.
When Ye Tao arrived at the foot of the mountain after a period of chaos, what he saw was that the convoy of horses had formed a simple camp form, and Dai Yun was talking to Tan Weixin in the carriage, at least it seemed that the two of them were getting along very happily.
"Ye Jingluo, the last general will leave, and after the last general has dealt with the affairs on the front line of Dalun Mountain, he will go to Ningyuan City to report to you." Dai Yun said goodbye to Ye Tao with a smile, and after saluting, he gave Ye Tao a very "brotherly" hug, and she said in an extremely cunning tone next to Ye Tao's ear: "Your wife is very interesting." ”
Dai Yun left like this, and when Ye Tao was confused and asked Tan Weixin what the two of them were talking about, Tan Weixin shook her head slightly and refused to say. She just frowned and said, "Your wife is fun." ”
This statement almost made Ye Tao collapse, and he wanted to know more and more what the two of them had talked about, and how they had come to such a conclusion.
