Princess Xiu squinted at Han Mo and was slightly surprised: "How do you know it's a Northern Barbarian?" Hongu has just gotten the news, and your news is faster than Hongu! ”

Han Mo shook his head and said, "It's just a guess, I haven't gotten any news." ”

"Did you guess that the Northern Barbarians would attack Qingguo?" Princess Xiu said curiously: "General Han, you are really knowledgeable." ”

Han Mo naturally wouldn't tell her that it was Zhuang Yuan's guess, at this time, Han Mo was already as quiet as a god for Zhuang Yuan, that old guy, really like a god, he just smiled lightly: "The last time I went to Qingguo, I heard some people say that in the past two years, on the northern border of Qingguo, there are small groups of cavalry of Northern barbarians from time to time. ”

Princess Xiu took another sip of tea before she smiled: "So you guessed that the Northern Barbarians would attack Beiqing?" ”

Han Mo thought for a while, and finally said, "I just think that since Sima Qingtian can endure more than ten years before entering the army in a big way, he must have done enough work." He had fought with Shang Zhongli more than ten years ago, and knew that Shang Zhongli was by no means an easy person to deal with, so before this attack, he must have won over all the forces that could form an alliance. After a pause, Princess Xiu was quietly watching herself listening, so she continued: "The Northern Barbarians were almost wiped out by the Qi State and retreated to the north of the Desert Arctic...... However, in the past few years, they have been wandering in the Mobei area outside Qingguo Pass, and they are by no means going out for a walk, they must have some kind of intention. It's just that with the current power of the Northern Barbarians, they shouldn't dare to do anything to Qingguo alone...... Thinking about it, if the Northern Barbarians can have the courage to come back, I am afraid that the Wei people gave them the courage. In the past ten years of preparation, the Wei people must have secretly sent people to contact the Northern Barbarians, and this attack, the two sides are afraid that they have also agreed to attack the north and south to destroy Qingguo! ”

A smile appeared on Princess Xiu's face, and there was also a hint of appreciation in her eyes, and she smiled charmingly: "I didn't expect you to have such an opinion, this palace has always regarded you as a child ...... before!" ”

Han Mo suddenly grimaced, and said aggrievedly: "Does the princess really only treat me as a child?" I...... I've always been a princess who treats me like a big man! ”

When Princess Xiu saw him pretending to be bitter, she immediately ate and laughed, showing her flowers and branches, her breasts were like waves, and she said coquettishly: "Okay, good, you are a big man...... Today's words are already very much like a big man with brains! ”

Han Mo shook his head and sighed, "It turns out that before this, the princess always thought that I had no brains. But also, the princess is extremely wise, and in front of the princess, I can only be regarded as a big stupid person! ”

Princess Xiu covered her mouth and laughed for a while, before her eyes were like waves, "You are like a tongue." Whatever I say, you can find fault with it. After a pause, he smiled and nodded slightly: "You guessed right, in the north of Qingguo, a large number of Northern Barbarian cavalry appeared, and as far as I know, their men and horses are no less than 20,000 people. ”

"20,000?" Han Mo squinted and said.

Princess Xiu said: "Don't underestimate that there are only 20,000 of them. The Northern Barbarians are not like our Central Plains people, our Central Plains cavalry must be equipped with auxiliaries, and there are many logistics personnel, and the cavalry is inseparable from the supply of logistics. The Northern Barbarians are completely different, their cavalry is self-sufficient, they don't need logistics at all, and the materials they need are mainly looted, and the 20,000 cavalry are all capable of fighting. After taking a sip of tea, he continued: "Although the Northern Barbarians are not educated and rude, no one can deny that their combat effectiveness is definitely first-class and strong. And the horses they sit on are in no way inferior to the purebred Wei horses, they are all good horses that have come out of the desert, have enough stamina, are fast, and adapt to all kinds of environments. Among the four countries of the Central Plains, the Wei cavalry has the strongest combat effectiveness, but a Wei cavalry and a Northern Barbarian cavalry fight alone, normally, they will never defeat the Northern Barbarians! ”

Han Mo frowned, if he said so, then the 20,000 cavalry of the Northern Barbarians would be an extremely terrifying force.

"What is the situation of the Northern Barbarians now?" Han Mo pondered for a moment before asking softly, "You have already launched an offensive against Qingguo?" ”

"When the intelligence came from there, the Northern Barbarians were only gathering outside the pass." Princess Xiu shook her head and said, "Although there is no attack for the time being, the northern part of Qingguo will face huge military pressure, and ...... Since you know the past of the Northern Barbarians, you should know that Gaoyang County of Qingguo now has a large number of descendants of the Northern Barbarians, and now that the Northern Barbarians are gathered outside the pass, this Gaoyang County has naturally begun to become uneasy...... Wang Yanping, the one in the Northeast Army of Qingguo, is probably already anxious. ”

Han Mo touched his chin and said, "There are changes in the north of Qingguo, and the pressure on Shang Zhongli's side will become unprecedentedly huge. Whether it is the northern line or the Longshan line, but if one line is breached, the Qing army is afraid that it will collapse. ”

Princess Xiu sighed lightly: "The people of Qingguo are now in danger, although Shang Zhongli has won a big victory this time, but ...... I'm afraid it won't be easy! She rolled her eyes, looked at Han Mo, and chuckled, "Why are you so concerned about these things?" ”

Han Mo thought for a moment before he smiled: "Don't hide it from the princess, in fact, I have always wanted to be able to see the battlefield one day." It is a pity for a man not to be able to walk on the battlefield. Now that Wei Qing is in the war, I always feel ...... We Dayan won't sit idly by like this forever, right? The general and his Northwest generals will not be willing to be just a spectator, right? ”

Princess Xiu blinked her eyes before she smiled and said, "Your family doesn't want my Yan Kingdom to go to war...... My emperor's brother doesn't seem to want to start a sword fight at this time! ”

Han Mo leaned back in his chair and sighed: "The wind and clouds are changing, who can say clearly about the things behind this." ”

Princess Xiu said with a smile: "How old are you, and you look like a vicissitudes of life......!" ”

"My heart matures early." Han Mo laughed.

Princess Xiu seemed to think of something, her pretty face flushed slightly, and said: "This sentence is true, in the heart of you little bastard, it is a bad stomach!" ”

"Bad intestines?" Han Mo blinked his eyes and said in a low voice: "Princess, I haven't done you any bad things, you can't wronged me!" ”

Princess Xiu glared at Han Mo hatefully, then smiled charmingly and said, "Then do you want to treat me badly now?" ”

Han Mo was stunned, and when he saw Princess Xiu's smile like a flower, she was beautiful and attractive, so she immediately sat up straight and said, "This ...... This one...... Don't dare! ”

"Don't you dare or don't want to?"

"Don't dare!"

"That's what you think?"

"Princess......!" Han Mo coughed, and then said solemnly: "If the princess orders the ministers to be bad, the ministers ...... The minister can only obey orders! ”

Princess Xiu got up, twisted her willow waist, walked to Han Mo's side, blew lightly, like a musk deer, and said with a smile: "Then how do you want to make it bad?" ”

The fragrance was fragrant, enchanting and charming, Han Mo secretly screamed "goblin" in his heart, closed his eyes, his heart beat faster, leaned back on the chair, spread his hands, and looked like he was being picked.

Suddenly, her ears tightened, but it was Princess Xiu who grabbed her ears and hurriedly opened her eyes, but saw that Princess Xiu's coquettish color was already extremely cold, and she shouted: "You really dare to tease this palace?" Several times and three times, you are disrespectful to this palace, and this palace used to think that you were a child, and I didn't care about you. Today, since you admit that you are a man, then this palace will treat you as a man, if a boy is disrespectful to this palace, this palace can still understand, but a stinky man dares to be disrespectful to this palace, this palace must be punished! ”

Han Mo was grabbed by the ear, didn't dare to move, and looked at Princess Xiu pitifully.

"Then you say, are you a man or a boy?" Princess Xiu asked as she bit her red lip.

Han Mo stared at Princess Xiu's charming eyes, and said without thinking: "If the princess is punished, I will ...... I'm not a boy if...... If the prince wants me to do evil, I must be ...... It must be a man! ”

Princess Xiu stared at Han Mo and didn't speak.

Han Mo was tugged at his ears, cautious, and finally said, "By the way, princess, I still have military affairs to deal with in my camp, next time...... Next time, please ......! ”

Princess Xiu let go of her hand, and showed a bewitching color, and said with a smile: "Is this gone?" What about staying? ”

Princess Xiu's surprise made General Han frightened, and he didn't dare to stay any longer, afraid that Princess Xiu would come up with other ways to rectify herself, so she hurriedly said solemnly: "Military affairs are important, military affairs are important, ...... is important!" "Don't say anything more, the fart is gone.

Looking at Han Mo's embarrassed figure, Princess Xiu giggled again, her delicate body trembling and swaying.

……

……

The Xuande Royal Mansion is located in the eastern city.

The third son of Emperor Dayan, the eldest prince King Qiling, the second prince is King Chunren, and the third prince is King Xuande.

The eldest prince King Qiling was originally the prince of Yanguo, but he died suddenly, and later King Chunren and King Xuande had a dispute over the prince, and finally King Chunren was made the crown prince, and King Chunren Cao Ding, that is, the current emperor Emperor Pingguang.

Originally, after King Chunren was established as the crown prince, King Xuande still had a group of forces around him, from a certain point of view, King Xuande's power was even no less than that of King Chunren, who had been established as the crown prince, but after King Chunren was made a prince, King Xuande's fighting spirit collapsed, although there were still many people around him, but he himself had no fighting spirit, just drunk and drunk, and no longer had the heart to fight.

The people around him, seeing that he had no enterprising heart, left him one by one, and later, this prince became a real loner, and because of his indulgence, he was ridiculed by countless people behind his back, called the incompetent prince.

Until the sixth year of Pingguang, King Xuande, who was hollowed out by wine, died with a whimper, leaving only the beautiful princess in her prime.

Before King Xuande was alive, he had spent all his estate, and he had no power under him, so naturally there was no one to respect him, so he could only rely on the prince of the inner library to survive.

He spent money like flowing water, and the money in the inner treasury was not enough to support his spending and drinking, and in the end, he secretly sold the property in the palace in exchange for silver, and after his death, the palace owed a lot of debts.

Emperor Pingguang allocated silver from the inner treasury to repay those debts, and then decreed that some silver should be spent from the inner treasury every month to maintain the expenses of his widow, Mrs. Huaqing.

It's just that those silvers are naturally impossible to feed a large number of people, so there are only more than 20 people in the Xuande Palace, and the huge palace seems to be deserted and lonely.

After all, it is the princess, a member of the royal family, so there is an arrangement in the palace, and twenty royal forest guards are arranged here to protect the safety of Mrs. Huaqing.

It was late at night, the huge Xuande palace was silent, it seemed extremely deserted, in the mansion of Nuoda, there were countless houses, but at this time there were only a few lights lit, outside the gate of the palace, there were four saber guards of the Royal Forest Army, around the palace, there were also Royal Forest Army patrolling back and forth.

In a dark alley not far away, a lonely figure was hiding itself in the darkness, just poking his head out and looking at the closed gate of the palace from a distance.

On the street, there was a quiet, but after a long time, I saw a person hurrying over from not far away, dressed in gray clothes and wearing a gray hat, looking around the street, and the figure in the darkness had already beckoned and shouted: "Manager Luo, over here!" ”

When the man in gray heard the shout, he turned his head, saw the figure, hurriedly came over, and when he got into the alley, he arched his hand and said: "Third young master, wait a long time, everyone in the house has already slept at this time, and the villain will only dare to come over when they are all asleep!" ”
