Among Mu Cien's several sons, the smartest is Mu Nanyun, although he is a little perverse, but the art of war is very pure, he dares to say that in Da Liang, there are really not many people who can beat this little son in the art of war. It's just that the youngest son is very good at hiding clumsy, and his ability is never revealed in front of others.

Now his Mu family is a thorn in the side of the Rong family, and the Rong family has the power of the court, and there is no way to hide it. Mu Cien actually didn't think that if the younger son's heart was slightly biased towards the Rong family, it would not be difficult to gain a firm foothold in the court, but the younger son didn't do this, but it made him proud in his heart, and the younger son was a proud person.

Lu Xiaoxiao sat in the Chinese military tent for a while, and asked some military affairs, not involving the fundamentals, Mu Cien simply dealt with it, and when Mu Cien finished dinner, seeing that Lu Xiaoxiao had no intention of leaving, he moved the military affairs folds to the side table for review, Lu Xiaoxiao sat down for a while, Yang Ling has been standing at the door of the tent, never said a word, and did not even glance at the tent, she felt very bored, and was about to get up to say goodbye, when a person suddenly came in outside the tent.

Yang Ling had actually seen it a long time ago, and the person who came was the think tank around Mu Nanyun, the former Xixi of Mu Qisheng, Lin Pei.

Lin Pei has been following Mu Nanyun's side, and when he comes back this time, there must be something, Yang Ling watched from a distance, knowing that Lu Xiaoxiao would hinder the discussion in the account, but he did not prevent Lin Pei from entering the account.

Regarding Lin Peiqi, he has never had a good impression, not just because Lin Pei once coveted his wife Xiaobai, but more importantly, because he felt that this person was very complicated.

I don't know why I feel this way, but I can only boil it down to my sixth sense.

Lin Pei walked closer, saw him standing in front of the tent, and waved it, "Captain Yang." ”

Yang Ling nodded lightly, which was considered a return gift, and did not say much. Lin Pei was used to his coldness, and he didn't care, the guard Xiaocang recognized him as a strategist in front of Mu Nanyun's tent, so he went into the tent to report, Mu Cien said "Please come in", and didn't seem to care that Lu Xiaoxiao was in the tent.

Lu Xiaoxiao sat down, without any intention of leaving.

Lin Pei came in and saw a stunning woman sitting on the main seat in the tent, but the old general Mu Cien sat on the side, and he was a little stunned for a while.

Mu Cien said: "This is the fifth princess of the dynasty. ”

Lin Pei immediately saluted, "The grass people have seen the five princesses. ”

Lu Xiaoxiao raised his eyes lightly and glanced at it, "This is the champion Lang?" ”

Mu Cien said: "It's true that the champion is true, why, the princess has seen him?" ”

Lu Xiaoxiao smiled and said: "When he was the champion of the year, he was still a teenager, but the article was really amazingly written, and his father praised him a lot, and the palace was curious about what kind of character he was, and when his father summoned him, he went to the door of the imperial study to take a peek." However, I didn't expect the champion to decline the reward, traveled all over the world, the palace was very strange, others are not just to be an official, why did you win the champion but refused to accept the official seal? ”

Lin Pei shook his eyes and said: "The grass people were too young at the time, although the article was well written, but it was a black eye in terms of human feelings, how could they be a good official?" Therefore, I thought about going through a few years of training first, and then thinking about serving the country, not because the grass people didn't want to be officials. ”

"Wen Zhuangyuan is now throwing a pen from Rong, which is also a good story." Lu Xiaoxiao smiled and seemed to be very approving, but no one knew what he thought in his heart.

Lin Pei said: "The grass people traveled to Nanping back then, and by chance, they became the west seat of Mufu, and they have been teaching for a living all these years, which is also very fun. But Di Yi attacked, the entire young and middle-aged people in Nanping joined this war, and the grass people, as Daliang people, should naturally take it as their responsibility to defend their homes and defend the country, so they went to the battlefield with the prison army, and they were strategists, not seeking to make meritorious contributions, but only to contribute to the protection of their homeland. ”

In the end, it is Zhuangyuanlang, and the words are not leaky, but I don't know why, it always makes people feel that there is something missing in these words. As for what was missing, none of the people present thought about it. If he is perfunctory, what can he think?

But by the time he finished speaking, whether it was Lu Xiaoxiao, Mu Cien, or Yang Ling, they had already realized that his words were less sincere. If it is perfunctory, where is sincerity?

Why did he do this Xixi, and why did he go to the battlefield, who can know except himself?

After the greetings, Mu Cien asked in front of Lu Xiaoxiao, "Mr. Lin, Nanyun sent you, right?" What did he let you do? ”

The word "sir" is the honorific title of Xixi by ordinary people, and Mu Cien calls him Mr., which is actually just a title, just like people call the shopkeeper the shopkeeper.

Lin Pei didn't care what he called him, after all, he was General Zhenyuan, and it was not an exaggeration to call him "boy", "What the handsome master expected was good, it was the order of the overseer." The undercover agent planted by the overseer in the enemy camp sent a message that the enemy army would attack in a big way tonight, and asked the handsome master to defend himself. ”

The enemy's counterattack was expected to be large-scale, Mu Cien had already begun to deploy after the news of his youngest son's victory came back, rolling wood and stones, there is no shortage in the mountain, the stones chiseled down from the mountain before can be used as weapons, and most of the trees on the mountain have been cut down, which can also be used for weapons, and at the same time, the archers are always on standby.

When the enemy is attacking, these weapons can be used first to frustrate most of the enemy's spirit.

When Lu Xiaoxiao first came, she saw that the front mountain was cut into a cliff, and she didn't understand why, she thought it was to prevent people from attacking from the back mountain, but now it seems that preventing people from attacking the back mountain is a part, and chiseling down the stone as a stone is the most important thing.

It's a two-pronged solution.

Ginger is really old and spicy.

After Lin Pei finished speaking, Mu Cien said, "Where is Nanyun camping now?" ”

"In a mountain col thirty miles to the east."

Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help frowning: "Why do you want to set up the camp so far?" He's around here, can't he echo Kageyama's main force? ”

Lu Xiaoxiao did not hide her suspicions at all.

From the very beginning, she never hid her suspicions about Mu's father and son.

In fact, everyone understands that it is normal for her to be suspicious, but it seems hypocritical not to doubt, and she put her suspicions on the surface, not because of disrespect for General Mu, but because of his respect.

If she acts in secret, she is the villain.

Yang Ling has always known that Lu Xiaoxiao has some means, and today he can see more clearly, why does she have some means? Her ability to turn over white and black is not small.

Lin Pei said: "The princess didn't know, that night, although with Captain Yang's surprise attack won a complete victory, but after all, there were many enemy troops, and when we retreated not much, the enemy army chased up, in order not to make the enemy attack Shadow Mountain, we had to make a detour to the east, the enemy army has been chasing behind, we ran for thirty miles, and then the enemy army was thrown away." The meaning of the overseer is also to echo the shadow mountain, thirty miles is not too far, tonight we will go around behind the enemy and attack from both sides. ”

Yang Ling was at the door of the tent, and when he heard Lin Pei say this, the corners of his mouth twitched. Admittedly, what he said about the flanking attack should be true, but what is the matter with being chased by the enemy? It wasn't like he didn't retreat.

Is it okay for Mu Nanyun to take the initiative to take a detour to the east?

However, it is unknown whether he was motivated by tactical considerations or purely to avoid Lu Xiaoxiao.

Yang Ling was too lazy to take care of Lin Pei, since he was now working as a guard for Lu Xiaoxiao, it was estimated that it was unlikely that he would participate in the war for a while.

He had also seen Mu Cien's deployment, and if nothing else, it would not be a problem to resist this attack, but he was not too worried.

Mu Cien said: "Since you are preparing to flank the attack, then you should hurry back and tell Nanyun that Ben Shuai has made preparations here, just wait for the enemy to attack, and then win a big victory." ”

"Okay, the grass people will go back."

Lin Pei saluted, quit the account, and when he walked to the door, he didn't forget to take a deep look at Yang Ling, and that gaze couldn't say what it was, in short, it was quite complicated.

Yang Ling looked at him, and suddenly remembered the black-clothed people he met when he was burning grain and grass, and he couldn't bear it in his heart, and said, "Lin Pei, on the way back, pay attention to safety." ”

He is not a person who talks a lot, especially when he talks a lot to Lin Pei, Lin Pei couldn't help but be stunned, and then nodded: "Thank you for reminding me, I will." ”

After Lin Pei left, Mu Cien also began to gather generals and deploy defenses.

Kageyama's defense was not a big problem, so the discussion did not last long, and after about a quarter of an hour, the generals were all disbanded and each returned to his place to begin preparations.

The recruits had little combat experience, and they had just dabbled in drawing bows and shooting arrows and assassinations, so naturally they were not accurate enough, so Mu Cien sent them to dig fortifications at the foot of the mountain.

The rest of the people went to prepare the rolling wood and stones, and those who should prepare bows and arrows went to prepare bows and arrows, and before it got dark, they were all ready to be in place, just waiting for the Di Yi soldiers to attack.

The only task Yang Ling was assigned was to protect Lu Xiaoxiao. Mu Cien persuaded Lu Xiaoxiao to go down the mountain and go back to Nanping to hide, but Lu Xiaoxiao refused again, Mu Cien couldn't, so she could only order Yang Ling to protect her.

Yang Ling couldn't see joy or anger on his face, Lu Xiaoxiao left the Zhongjun tent and returned to his camp, and he followed her back to her camp.

Next to Lu Xiaoxiao's tent, his smaller tent had also been properly placed, and it was only two steps away from Lu Xiaoxiao's tent.

"The main hall is hungry now, go to the kitchen to see if there is anything to eat, and bring some to the main hall." Lu Xiaoxiao, who returned to the camp, really felt hungry, "By the way, didn't you eat either, take back your own food, and finish eating to deal with the enemy's attack." ”

Yang Ling still didn't say anything, and went to the kitchen to get food with an indifferent brow.

The soldiers coming and going on the path were in a hurry, and they were all nervously engaged in preparing to defend against the enemy, compared to Yang Ling's pace, which was too leisurely!

As soon as he walked to the kitchen door, Yang Ling suddenly stopped.

His natural keen sense of danger made his eyes narrow, and he secretly held a pebble in his hand.
