Chapter Forty-Eight: A Woman Disguises Herself as a Man to Fight

Originally, the army still had some expectations for this suddenly appointed vanguard lieutenant general, after all, it was appointed by the emperor himself, maybe there was something extraordinary.

But when they saw that Tian Xiaoli couldn't even stand the pain of riding a horse, and brought such a fancy bird, all the soldiers understood.

Look at it, this is actually a gentleman who can't do anything, relying on the power of his family, coming to the barracks to get a handful of military merits and leaving.

Thinking of the military merits that she had worked so hard to get, she might be snatched away by this kind of person, from the deputy general at the same level as her, to the big-headed cooks who marched on two legs with a cauldron on their backs, they all looked at her unpleasantly.

Because of the emperor's request, Tian Xiaoli changed her name from her mother's surname to Su Mian, dressed as a man, and the army never revealed to the outside world that she was Yun Yue's daughter.

Everyone only thinks that Su Mian is the son of a gentleman in Beijing, relying on his ancestor Yu Yin to sneak into the army, not to mention letting him go into battle in person, if he really wants to fight, I am afraid that he will have to waste his troops to protect him.

I don't know what the marshal thinks, he can let this kind of person mix into the barracks and become a deputy general.

Seeing Tian Xiaoli sitting in the car, and the parrot next to her telling jokes and amusing her, relieving her fatigue during the march, everyone in the army was depressed.

Even another lieutenant in the army, who was also uneducated and unskilled, had weak legs as soon as he got on horseback, and had been sitting in a car since the beginning of the march, did not look down on her.

This Su Mian, isn't he handsome, but his size is also very average, the big guy goes out to fight, and he only brings his own birds, and he is good from Su, and he also brings one more flying!

This lieutenant named Wang Bao has always liked birds, and there is a yard at home full of birds, but no matter how much he loves birds, he also knows the rules of marching, so he doesn't dare to make a mistake at all.

He was both envious and jealous of Su Mi in his heart, everyone is here to make military achievements, why are you so showy and bring a parrot, can you do whatever you want because you are handsome?

Tian Xiaoli didn't know that on the first day of the march, she became the target of everyone.

When it was time to set up camp that night, she only felt that the world was spinning, her whole body was weak, and her legs hurt hotly.

Yun Yue came to see her at night, although there was care in his eyes, he kept a cold face all the time, and sneered a few words.

"Ah Yan, just like you, you still want to go into battle? You can't even ride a horse, are you going to die? ”

Tian Xiaoli didn't feel ashamed, but immediately realized the danger.

In Yun Yan's memory, the battles with the opposing generals were horse battles, and whether they were pursuing, luring the enemy, escaping, or even rushing, they were all on horses.

That is, if she does not adapt to life on horseback, then it is impossible for her to complete the task.

Fighting a war is not just a matter of strength.

Thinking about this, Tian Xiaoli insisted on getting on the horse the next day, and even began to practice the skills of horse archery combat according to Yun Yan's memory.

Tian Xiaoli's psychological quality is surprisingly good, she ignores the ridicule and ridicule of others, carries her spear, and only trains herself, the worn skin on her leg has just scabbed, and this activity rubs and breaks again, and the pain is unbearable.

Tian Xiaoli asked Sweet Jujube, and Sweet Jujube replied wistfully, although the system has a special medicine, it can't be exchanged because the task is too little.

routinely despised the sweet jujube, Tian Xiaoli asked Yun Yue for some gold sore medicine for herself, and insisted on practicing, sweet jujube flew beside her, relying on her parrot identity, shouting and cheering for her.

Although the scene was funny, everyone could see her efforts.

This time, although the soldiers looked at her strangely, they also had a little more respect.

Yun Jian was originally good at riding and archery, but he had never gone through the real battle formation, and only practiced in his own martial arts arena, so he couldn't stand the hard work of the march.

With the foundation of the original owner Yun Xuan, Tian Xiaoli has made rapid progress in serious practice, which can be called twice the result with half the effort, and Yun Yue also nodded secretly.

He was originally worried that his daughter had no strength and martial arts, but she couldn't endure the hardships of being in the army, but now when he saw Tian Xiaoli's appearance, he was relieved.

At noon on this day, the sun was shining brightly, the clouds were steaming, and the outline of the city walls of Daxing City appeared far away on the horizon.

Yun Yue's expression was solemn, and he ordered the army to stop on the spot, bury the pot to make rice, rest for an hour after the meal, recuperate enough energy, and prepare to fight.

Daxing City is only a small city, the reason why it is famous is only because of its dangerous geographical location, which lies on the only way for the Hu people to the mainland, and has become the first line of defense against the Hu people.

The people in and around the city were also deeply affected by the Hu people, who would come to harass them from time to time, and the people in the city were not at peace, and the farmers and hunters outside the city suffered even more.

At this moment, outside Daxing City, just like hell on earth, crying and screaming resounded inside and outside the city.

More than a dozen Hu men kidnapped the nearby people, tied them to the back of horses, dragged them on horseback, and some people trampled on horses back and forth, most of the people were old and young, neighing and screaming, as if purgatory on earth.

The gates were closed, and on the city walls, an older soldier struck his head against the wall with tears in his eyes, while another young soldier was so angry that he grabbed his bow and arrows and took aim with his bow.

His companion advised him: "It's useless, it's too far away, and an arrow has been wasted." ”

The soldier did not listen to him, drew his bow to the fullest, took serious aim, and with a soft thud, the arrow flew out, but it did not hit anyone, and fell diagonally to the ground.

The Hu people under the city were startled, and then laughed, and some people made insulting gestures at the city.

The rope tied to an old man was broken, he stumbled and fled to the city gate, dragging his Hu clan whip to whip, the whip wrapped around the old man's leg and pulled him back, the old man staggered and fell to the ground, the Hu clan trampled on the horse, the old man screamed miserably and then lost his voice, the Hu clan chief laughed loudly, waved the long whip and pointed to the city, and his expression was extremely proud.

The young soldier's eyes were torn, and he grabbed his weapon and waved it and cursed, but he was helpless.

How can it be?

The Hu people harass every year, it has become the norm, but this year I don't know what medicine I took wrong, but I raised a large army to attack, and the guards have sent fast horses to the capital for help, but until now, I haven't seen the soldiers and horses in the capital.

The Hu people have been besieging the city for more than half a month, and the guards could still fight before, but since the guards were injured by the Hu people a few days ago, and they barely escaped with their lives, no one has fought again.

Fortunately, there are plenty of reserves in the city, and they can hold on for a while.

The Hu people could not attack the city, so they changed their strategy, captive the nearby people during the day, humiliate them under the city, and gather troops to besiege the city at night, and the city was damaged and the rest was not good, so that after more than ten days, there were fewer and fewer soldiers who could fight in the city.
