Chapter 280: The cavalry is so scary
Lin Moran was shocked by a bombshell news, and she asked in surprise, "Your father went to be a pioneer?" How old is he to be a pioneer now? The battlefield is changing rapidly, and he may die at any time, is he going to die? If something happens to him, what will you do? What should I do with the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion? What about this home? He's really hot-blooded! Those who drag their families with their mouths dare to go to the battlefield! ”
Tao Liyan's expression became colder and colder, and he said coldly: "Mo Ran, you have changed, you have become indifferent, at this time, you are still thinking about your family?" Shouldn't you think about how innocent the people on the border are? They are going to suffer from war, and what have they done wrong? At this time, if my father does not go to defend the family and the country, who else can go? Do you want to watch them be displaced and their families destroyed? ”
"What do you mean by my indifference? If I hadn't been pregnant, I'd rather be the one who would have gone to war! I'd rather die myself than the people I care about! But for your sake, I can only stay here and wait for your news! I can only watch the people I care about die, but I can't do anything! If it weren't for this child in my womb, you wouldn't have been so scared! You don't have to look at me so carefully, don't let me go here, don't let me go there! I'm afraid I'll go to the battlefield on impulse! How many times has Mrs. Yu been to the East Palace in the past two days? Even Yicai is gone, don't think I don't know what you're thinking! What I hate most now is not the enemy's offense, but this burden in my stomach! It was he who delayed me from going to the battlefield to save people! ”
Lin Moran lay on the table in pain and wept.
Tao Liyan realized his gaffe, so he gently patted Lin Moran on the shoulder, wanting to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say.
Lin Moran cried and said: "Do you think I asked people to protect our families, because I was afraid that they would be implicated in the war, and I was greedy for life and afraid of death?" I'm just worried that if our families are not protected, then why are the soldiers on the front lines fighting for this country? I want to protect not only our families, but also the families of the frontline fighters! If I could, I really hope that I am not the one who is protected, but the one who can rush to the front and protect others! But now, Jiang Muyuan has done what I want to do the most, the person I want to protect the most, but in order to protect me, he rushed to the front, what do you tell me to do! How can I sit here and wait for news! ”
It's not just Tao Li Yan who doesn't know, Lin Moran also has such a side of serving the country and the people and taking the lead, and even Lin Zhengtang and his wife don't know that their daughter is so full of righteousness.
Tao Li Yan was deeply moved, and couldn't help but bow at Lin Moran, and said: "Niangniang's righteousness, Li Yan is ashamed, please accept Li Yan's worship!" ”
"Don't tell me that these are useless, I don't need anyone to worship, I just want to know, how can I make Jiang Muyuan safer over there! You don't know how anxious I am, it's a battlefield! How many people are going to die? If only Jiang Muyuan was alone, it would be fine, but there are still so many warriors! And so many innocent people in the border towns! It's not that I'm worried about the country and the people, it's just that now that I know it, I have the ability to do something, but now I can't do anything, which is what makes me the most uncomfortable! Lin Moran said sadly.
Tao Liyan was infected by Lin Moran, and he was also very worried about the situation on the front line, so he said: "Leave this matter to me, I will go and discuss with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty to see if I can make arrangements before the war, arrange the people and the families of the soldiers, and not implicate the innocent!" ”
"Then do you need to go to the border? Marquis Dingyuan took the initiative to ask Ying, in order to keep you safe for the rest of your life, he has already gone to the battlefield, according to the custom, you don't have to go again, you don't want to live up to your father's hard work! Lin Moran said.
"Don't worry, even if Your Majesty asks me to go, I won't go, you know, where am I going into battle to kill the enemy? Your Majesty also knows my half-bottle ability, and will not let me go to the front line to bring disaster to the country and the people! Tao Liyan said with a smile.
Lin Moran pursed her lips, she knew for the first time that the word disaster to the country and the people could still be used like this.
Half a month later, all the pre-war matters were negotiated, and at this time, the 300,000 troops on the border had been assembled and could start the war at any time.
Lin Moran's heart became more and more worried, she was very worried about the people on the border, but she didn't know what to do to bless them safely.
It's a pity that the capital is far away from the border, and the message transmission is inconvenient, even if it is 800 miles expedited, it will take three or five days to deliver, and that is only when there are major events on the front line. Ordinary information can only be delivered at an ordinary speed, and it will take at least ten days to arrive.
Lin Moran didn't believe in anything, but for the people she cared about, she believed in the Bodhisattva, and chanted scriptures and prayed in the Buddhist hall all day long, just asking for peace of mind.
The war has already started on the front line, but the sons and daughters of these rich and noble families who are far away in the capital have not been affected by the war in the slightest.
Although Lin Moran didn't witness it with his own eyes, Tao Liyan went to participate twice, and after coming back, he complained to Lin Moran a few words, remembering that Jiang Muyuan was still working the front line to do what he could, but these people were drunk in the capital, and this world is really unfair to people who work hard!
Lin Moran was a little angry after hearing this, but she didn't know what to do, so she could only put this kind of unevenness in her stomach, this kind of bad mood was backlogged a lot, and Lin Moran became a lot depressed.
After Li Huaifeng, Li Yun, and the courtiers dealt with the latest front-line military situation, they returned to the East Palace very late, and he tiptoed back to the room, thinking that he would not make any noise to Lin Moran, but in the moment he was lying on the bed, Lin Moran still woke up.
"You're back? I've been coming back late, and the war is heavy? Lin Moran asked.
Li Huaifeng hugged Lin Moran in his arms, and Lin Moran separated himself from Li Huaifeng with his hands without a trace.
Li Huaifeng said a little tiredly: "The cavalry of Beiwan Kingdom is famous in the world, we have indeed met opponents, Dingyuan Marquis is good at positional warfare, but not good at cavalry warfare, and now he is asking for help from the imperial court, let us send a few generals who are good at riding to the past." However, there are many mountains in Dazhou, not many plains, and there is no place for cavalry at all, there has been no cavalry for many years, even if there are a few good horsemen, there are not enough soldiers with good riding skills, and they can't form a strong combat effectiveness, so what's the use of one or two people? ”
Lin Moran listened, and was a little anxious, the other party is a nomad, and the riding skills are naturally first-class, Da Zhou's loss is decided, what should I do to make up for this defect as soon as possible?
