Chapter 120: A Small Family Is Not Safe
A: Finally has someone who can call the shots.
When the princess entered the palace alone, knelt in front of King Yu's sickbed, and shouted the "father", Qu Mingli knew the follow-up.
When the princess returned, she had obviously dressed up deliberately, and like the usual general, she covered up the softness of the day before with the coldness of the iron armor, and she did not show that she was a wife or a mother at all.
Between her gestures, she was decisive and decisive, as if she wanted to show all the royal spirit that had been forgotten in the past few years, which made people dare not refute.
After the ministers informed him of the ins and outs of the matter, Xue Nan said angrily: "The country of incorruptibility and shame is kind enough to use business to facilitate him, but it provokes him to gain an inch." What's more, closing the trade road and eliminating the robbers is the state affair that I promised to educate, and it is his turn to dictate him. and doing such ugly things that plot and harm others, how can there be the atmosphere of a country? A country that is fraternal with such a country is a shame on me! Send all the troops in the country that can be sent to the front, and I will settle the account with them. ”
The princess gave the order, and everyone shut up, no longer objected, and only did what she said.
"Where are the two distant generals?"
The two lieutenants hurriedly lined up: "The last general." ”
"I heard that the women's army has not fought like this for a long time, and I don't know if they can still fight. Come with me this time, and you don't want people to see my jokes. ”
The two generals rejoiced: "The last general obeys!" ”
This is the first time Qu Mingli has seen the real Ayu-Nu Army.
Originally, I just heard that Ayu is the only country in the hundred countries that really practices women's army, there are female army generals, a complete army system, and practical combat experience, all of which make Qu Mingli yearn for it.
It's just that what I saw since then was chilling, and it was not worth it for the soldiers in the women's army.
Now that Xue Nan is in battle, he is sassy and heroic, and he has the appearance of a commander, which makes Qu Mingli impressed for a while.
Once upon a time, he also imagined such a situation, leading his female army to defend his family and country.
Now, although half of this wish has been fulfilled, there is not much joy.
The female soldiers hadn't seen Xue Nan for a long time, and they were in a trance for a while, and they couldn't believe that it was the main general who came back to lead them.
Xue Nan apologized for this, and encouraged everyone to show the momentum of the only female army in a hundred countries, and cheered for a while, and when the battle started, she worked harder than other armies.
The alliance of the dependent countries is just some raccoon dogs, and they promised small profits, so they came over, and after defeating the answer, they could share some benefits, but now they see that it is a little difficult to do, and they have retreated, and even the army's heart is turbulent a lot, how to win again.
In addition, Qu Mingli led the army of the hundred tribes, and the proper division of labor with the Ayu army, the momentum of cooperation was even more invincible, invincible on the battlefield, and the alliance army was defeated and retreated.
"Aren't you so good, sharing the worries of your father and the king, and doing things for your people, why didn't you wake up sooner, and things wouldn't have come to this point?" Qu Mingli asked Xue Nandao.
Xue Nan shook his head: "I don't have any awakening, my home is still in that small mountain village house, and it has never changed." It's just that I think that if my child is still facing such war and gunsmoke in the future, and I need to hide and flee everywhere to survive, how can I be a competent mother. ”
"Didn't you think that your subjects would be slaughtered without you?"
Xue Nan chuckled: "I know, you want to talk about me in the righteousness of your family and country." But my country is so small, so small that there is only one room. As long as the people in that room are safe, I'm satisfied. ”
Qu Mingli can't refute this, but as long as Xue Nan is still in his position and bears his burden, he can be regarded as competent.
The momentum of the dependent country was a little weaker, so Xue Nan sent someone to investigate the matter of the robbers in the business road.
It is not to give an explanation to the dependent country, but to deal with the internal affairs of the country.
This road has been around for a long time, and it is known that it was an important place for the two countries to make good friends, and there were also troops guarding along the road to deal with some accidents on the road.
Local officials searched the road many times, but the gang of thieves was like loaches in a pond, occasionally seeing some traces of swimming, and when they reached out to catch them, they could not catch anything.
Strangely, this group of people has never robbed the merchants of the country, and they have never heard of any businessmen who have been educated in this place.
Everyone only said that this gang of robbers was really patriotic, and they were all open to businessmen in their own country.
Xue Nan felt strange and ordered the reopening of the trade route, but stopped a person and others, only to let people pretend to be a business traveler from their country to walk on that road, nothing happened, pretending to be a business traveler from the country, and nothing happened.
Could it be that those people are gone?
Xue Nan ordered people to go a few more times, but the result was still the same.
Why is that?
Seeing that this trade route was blocked, and the country's freight trade was also affected, Xue Nan really opened the trade route, but sent more people to guard the road.
One day, two days, nothing happened.
A few days later, there was still a robbery of the merchant travel of the dependent country.
Originally, the two countries were at war, and there should not have been a merchant from the dependent country passing through here, but the merchants could not stand up to eat, so they could only come here to seek wealth with a cheeky risk, not wanting to be robbed.
"Bring those caravans back, and I'll interrogate them myself." Xue Nan said angrily.
Under such heavy defense, why can the thief still succeed!
The soldiers brought the people, and Xue Nan observed them carefully. I sent someone to pretend to be a business traveler to the country, but I did some research, and I tried to be similar in appearance and accent, so I shouldn't see any flaws.
But the people in the hall were trembling, for fear of being eaten, and they looked timid, and they couldn't see what was wrong.
What's the problem?
Xue Nan circled around them for half a circle, seemed to sense something wrong, and asked, "What kind of incense are you smoking?" ”
Qu Mingli sniffed vigorously, and there was indeed an unusual smell in the air.
The man at the head hurriedly untied a sachet from his waist and replied, "This is all the wood in our country, and because it has a unique fragrance, it is called fragrant wood." Ordinary people don't have this thing, but those of us who run outside all the year round to ask for peace and make up a thought, that's why we all carry these woods. ”
"You all bring it?" Xue Nan asked.
The people in the hall were busy untying the things tied around their waists, and they all had the same scent of sawdust, but they were all different.
"Nine times out of ten, there are dependents outside." The man replied, "The more expensive the wood in the sachet, the more valuable it is." ”
Xue Nan held each sachet in his hand, and finally knew what was missing.
People who pretend to be similar only want to look similar, but if they get close and can't smell this fragrance, they will know that nine times out of ten they are not from the country, how can they be fooled?
"I'm going to meet the thieves myself." Xue Nan's eyes shone with some light, and he was determined to investigate this matter clearly.
