The date of the expedition was set for August 20.

In this expedition to the northwest, the imperial court mobilized 200,000 horses to reinforce the northwest in two batches.

First, Ling Yuanzhi led an army of 100,000 from the capital. Then 100,000 troops were dispatched from Shandong, Hebei, and Henan to the northwest. All the armies fighting in the northwest were under the unified command of the generalissimo Ling Yuanzhi. Be sure to drive the Warat army out of the territory of the Great Yuan Dynasty.

The night before the expedition, Ling Yuanhang and Yaru lingered until late, until Yaru couldn't stand it anymore and fainted. Ling Yuanhang let her go contentedly. He used wet wipes to clean up Yaru, and went to the inner room to take a bath. Then he crooked on the bed and stared at Aru until he fell asleep.

When Ling Yuanhang woke up in the morning, he saw that Yaru was sleeping soundly, so he didn't wake her up. He took care of himself, kissed Aru on the forehead again, and then reluctantly turned and walked out

Apricot and rosé are out on duty for the night. Xinghong said, "Lord Shizi, are you leaving?"

Ling Yuanhang said: "Don't wake up the princess and let her sleep a little longer." ”

The two agreed, after sending Ling Yuanhang away. The two turned around and went back to the house and got busy, Xinghong went to wake up their young lady, and Taohong went to prepare the things for Yaru to get up.

Both of them knew in their hearts that the prince felt sorry for Miss, but Miss had just been married for less than two months, and her husband couldn't get up to see her off when he went on the expedition, so how could it work. Not only are the people in the house gossiping, but the two are also afraid that their young lady will not be able to hold the heart of the son. After all, Shizi is such an excellent person. ，

Yaru woke up in a daze and saw that Ling Yuanhang was no longer by his side. She hurriedly took out the speed at which she got up during modern military training and quickly sorted herself out. Na Liso really surprised the two little girls who were used to serving her. I didn't expect that their young ladies usually waited for them, but when it came to a critical time. Their young lady is really unambiguous.

When Ling Yuanhang arrived at the front hall, he saw that his father was already here. Breakfast was set, and father and son began to eat.

Today, the old lady also came to see off Xiao Wu. After a while, Li followed her husband over.

The old lady looked around, but didn't find Yaru, so she asked, "Hang'er, where is your daughter-in-law?"

Ling Yuanhang said: "Yesterday I cleaned up my things and slept too late, I didn't call her this morning, let her sleep a little longer." ”

The old lady said dissatisfiedly: "Do you still need to call it, her own men are going to war, and she can still sleep." ”

Li also made up for it: "That's it, Yuanhang, but there is no daughter-in-law like you." ”

Ling Yuanhui glared at her: "If you don't say a word, no one will treat you as a dumb person." ”

At this time, Aru hurried over. She was carrying a package in her hand, and she said to Ling Yuanzhi: "Father, this is the dim sum I asked the small kitchen to make, and it has just come out of the pot." Bring it to eat at noon today. ”

Ling Yuanzhi said to her with a smile: "It's still thoughtful, if you go out, you won't be able to eat the snacks at home anymore, and you have to eat a big pot of rice with the soldiers." This can be eaten one meal after another. Okay, take it on the voyage, this is Aru's intention. ”

Ling Yuanhang said: "It seems that I just came out, and you got up." Okay, get up, and when my father and I are gone, you can come back and get some sleep." When I come back from the fight, don't let me see you're thin. ”

Ling Yuanhang didn't know what was wrong today, he wasn't afraid of others laughing at him at all. You must know that in the ancient male respect society, how could a man spoil his daughter-in-law so much, which should be looked down upon. However, Ling Yuanhang wanted to declare his concern for Yaru in front of his family today. He hoped that Aru would be comfortable at home after he was gone. So this also has the meaning of letting the old lady and the Li family listen.

Linlang smiled: "Yuanhang, I'll help you watch Yaru, and keep that when you come back, Yaru is still the same as when you left." ”

At this time, the old lady spoke: "Ah Yuan, didn't you make shoes for Zhi'er? Everyone is leaving, why don't you take them out?"

Everyone looked at Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu is really an embarrassing identity, saying that he is the concubine of King Lingjun. King Ling Jun never seemed to have such a person as her.

At that time, she usually had nothing to do except accompany the old lady. So when she was fine, she also made several pairs of shoes for King Ling Jun. But she also knows that what she did was done in vain. King Ling Jun won't wear it either. So, after she finished making a pair, she locked it in a box.

This time, I heard that King Lingjun was going on an expedition. She made another pair of thick soles, and also made a pair for Ling Yuanhang. She thought that maybe King Ling Jun would be able to accept it. She brought it, but she didn't know how to speak, for fear that Ling Yuanzhi would not accept it, and that Linlang would be angry.

Hearing what the old lady said, Xiao Wu's face turned red, and she snorted and said, "I heard that you are going to fight, and I don't know what to prepare." Besides, the princess of the county and the princess can be prepared very well. I want to be outside

There are many aisles, and it should be a waste of shoes. So I made a pair of shoes for the king of the county and a pair of shoes for the prince. With that, she pulled out her shoes.

Li Shi has a bit of a joke mentality next to her, but she doesn't know whose joke she wants to see.

Linlang took the shoes very happily and said with a smile: "Look at this workmanship, such a meticulous stitch, it's really good." Take it and change it over there. She sincerely thanked Xiao Wu again: "Thank you, Ah Yuan." ”

Yaru also joked: "Yes, these shoes are really good." Isn't the march just a waste of shoes?"

Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, this shoe was finally given away.

The old lady was satisfied. This is about the same, it seems that the eldest daughter-in-law and the eldest granddaughter-in-law are still very good at talking. Today can be regarded as a round face.

One of the purposes of the old lady's visit today was to ask Ah Yuan to give her son the finished shoes. Now that the old lady's purpose has been achieved, she is in a good mood.

The army was assembled at the gates of the city.

The emperor led his three adult sons, the crown prince, King An, the third son of the emperor, King Jing and the ministers were all here. This is a major military event, the emperor is here, can the minister not come?

Linlang and Yaru A-Ning Ake and other female relatives who saw them off were all standing beside them.

King Lingjun was fully armored, and next to him was his white war horse. A group of generals stood behind him. Behind the general is a soldier with no head in sight. The scene was spectacular and solemn.

The emperor stood on a temporary high platform, he looked at the heavily armed troops below, and delivered his marching speech: "Soldiers. Today you will go on your expedition to the northwest, where Varat has taken possession of two of our cities. They slaughtered the soldiers and people of my Great Yuan. You are all good sons of my Dayuan. You will have a sacred mission to reclaim our lost land. Behind you are countless people of the Great Yuan. So we can only win, not lose. Soldiers, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. I am waiting for your good news in the capital. Wait for you to come back and drink the celebratory wine.

Then Li Cheng handed the emperor a bowl of wine, and the prince also poured a bowl of wine to King Lingjun himself. King An and King Jing also personally went to serve wine to the generals. The emperor stood up and said generously: "I wish you success." "Drink it all.

King Ling Jun led the generals to shout in unison: "Your Majesty Xie." "All of them took their bowls and drank them all.

Finally, King Ling glanced at the direction in which the people were seeing off. There were their wives and children. He arched his hand over there, got on his horse neatly, and shouted loudly, "Go." ”

The army set out like an unstoppable iron stream rushing forward, and they will use their blood and flesh to fight against the invaders in the northwest, regain the lost territory, and build the strong Great Wall of Dayuan.
