Half a year later, the state of Li completely recovered several cities that had been ceded to Jingzhong.

South of Tiebeiling, it belongs to the country of Li from now on.

In retaliation, Jingzhong closed the shortcut from Lianfeng to Jingzhong, and the golden tea ceremony was no longer smooth.

Since then, the goods exchange and trade between the north and the south, merchants have to climb over the steep and vast Tiebei Ridge, and the logistics cost has risen sharply.

This led to serious dissatisfaction among the neighboring countries, and businessmen were also very dissatisfied.

So Chonghua issued an order to order King Rui to build a mansion in Lianfeng, and the prince entrenched in Longcheng, store grain, raise horses, and train troops, and prepare to take down the entire Tiebeiling at the right opportunity and reopen the passage.

Jingzhong's side is also on standby.

As a result, the situation between the two sides was very tense and there was friction at any time.

In the depths of the vast Iron Monument Ridge, a small city was gradually built.

It is made of mountain stone logs, built by the mountain, the clear spring mountain flowers grow at will, and the iron tablet ridge is integrated, very harmonious.

Behind the city, there is a flat valley, which was first filled with rocks, and it was He Miao who led people to clear it one by one, and then tamped it into a martial arts field.

The Tiger Army was built here.

Originally, it was intended to be built in the rear, but His Majesty the Emperor said that since it is an elite, let's start from the most difficult place, and after brutal elimination, the rest will be the real elite.

He Miao no longer wears green clothes, she wears dark clothes and iron armor like ordinary soldiers, her hair is tied into a man's bun, and she only uses the most ordinary ebony hairpin.

Snow-white skin is already an unattainable thing for her, and she has grown into a toned girl with wheat-colored skin.

She still didn't become a partial general of the Tiger Army, but a small school captain.

Every day, she had to take her soldiers to carry stones, cut wood, build houses, build walls, and practice, and she also taught them to read and write, and to learn the simplest medical skills and self-preservation techniques.

Her team is numbered as Team A, which means the best team.

This number is not fixed, but mobile competition, and can only be obtained by multiple evaluations and comparisons, which is the highest honor in the Tiger Army.

Her soldiers were all older and taller than her, but they listened to her, because on the first day of meeting, she beat them one by one, and beat them to the core.

It's early spring, and green shoots are blooming everywhere.

He Miao stood on the edge of the martial arts arena with his arms crossed, watching the rough men fight each other, occasionally going up to kick and slap, pointing and pointing.

Xu Nan came slowly, stood behind her, and didn't speak, just watched quietly with her.

He Miao ignored him and did things on his own, until he finished his work and looked back and saw that he was still there, so he led someone to come forward and salute and ask him for guidance.

After Xu Nan finished commenting, he looked at He Miao seriously and said, "Keep up." ”

Without waiting for her, he turned around and left.

He Miao ordered his subordinates to disband and hurry up to catch up.

In the past six months, she has grown a lot taller, but she is still much shorter than Xu Nan.

She followed behind Xu Nan quietly and orderly, and she didn't say anything if he didn't speak.

Xu Nan stopped suddenly, she almost bumped into it, but the soldier's quality made her stop in time, and the two did not touch.

Xu Nan turned around and looked at her, with a slight regret: "There is a letter from your family." ”

Counting up, it was when He Xiaosi was born.

He Miao's eyes flashed: "Where?" ”

Xu Nan took out the letter from his arms and handed it over.

The letter carried his body temperature, but also his inherent faint smell of grass.

He Miao didn't care about these at all, she hurriedly tore open the letter and read it hungrily.

He Lingyi has always been warm and affectionate at the beginning, asking her how she is doing, whether she has grown taller, and whether she has received food and clothing from them before, saying that they miss her very much.

Then he began to scold her for having no conscience, raised her in vain, ran to the forward troops quietly, refused to tell her family when she was so seriously injured, and ran to the mountains to form a tiger army without saying hello.

He Xiaosi was mentioned at the end, and there was only one sentence, adults and children are safe.

He Miao was crazy, and after talking for a long time, he didn't say whether this was a younger brother or a younger sister!

Her dad must have done it on purpose!

Xu Nan saw that her expression had changed, so he asked, "What's wrong?" ”

He Miao threw the letter to him, and he didn't mean to shy away from it, but there really was nothing to avoid.

He Lingyi never mentioned anything unrelated to housework, not even Yuanzi.

Xu Nan quickly finished reading it and asked seriously: "Do you want a younger brother or a younger sister?" ”

He Miao said: "Sister, my father and mother are old, boys are too skinny, and girls, you can save them some effort." ”

Xu Nan said solemnly: "What if it's like you? ”

Was he joking with her?

He Miao was stunned for a moment.

Although the relationship between the two of them is informal, more often than not, it is the feeling of a serious superior, which is serious and serious.

She hadn't joked with him, and he hadn't joked with her.

This is the first time.

She coughed: "Then there is no way, I can only say that their lives are miserable." ”

Xu Nan showed a slight smile on his lips and said, "I have a secret document here, and I need to send it back to Longcheng, I don't worry about others going, you can go." ”

She hadn't seen her family and Yuanzi for a long time, and He Miao was in a mood and held her head high: "Promise to complete the task!" ”

Xu Nan nodded: "Go back and pack your luggage and order a few powerful ones to bring." ”

He turned around and continued to walk forward, He Miao called out to him, smiling like a flower: "Thank you!" ”

Xu Nan bowed slightly, turned to leave.

He Miao waited for him to go away, clenched his fists and whispered "yes", and made a few longitudinals.

Her movements did not hide from Xu Nan at all, and he was in a good mood and hooked the corners of his lips.

The soldiers sent the seedlings away with envy, and they kept asking her: "Remember to send my letter." ”

"Remember to buy me a dagger."

"Remember to bring me braised pork."

"Remember to buy me shoes......"

All sorts of requests, while constantly stuffing letters and stuff into the package.

He Miao looked at the larger and larger packages and had a headache, but she still followed with a good temper and wrote down their requests one by one.

Xu Nan appeared with a few guards, his face covered with frost: "Take all everyone's things and letters at once!" ”

The soldiers were collectively silent, and hurriedly took their things away, and in a blink of an eye, the large package of the seedlings was deflated to only one skin.

The gap between the front and back is too big, and the seedlings can't adapt for a while.

She tentatively interceded for everyone: "Actually, ......"

"Am I making you an old mother?" Xu Nan said coldly: "The letter must be delivered within two days, otherwise the military law will deal with it!" ”

Well, He Miao immediately turned over and got on his horse and hurried away.

Then she heard Xu Nan say behind her: "Three days later, we will send people out to pull heavy grain and grass, and those who want to bring things should hurry up and prepare." ”

There was a cheer behind him.

He Miao pursed her lips and smiled, she liked this boss very much.
