After a year of fighting horses, he was naturally much darker than when he was in the palace, and his face was thinner. This kind of Tuoba Hong makes people feel more at ease.

"The concubine is guilty...... she grabbed the man's palm, where there was a rough scar that I don't know when it was left. The concubine is a woman, and she is afraid that she will cause chaos to the emperor when she comes to Beisai. ”

"Where, I miss you so much." He said gently: "I have heard about the affairs of the East Palace, and the prince really lived up to my expectations, and I am very satisfied with the 'Luancang case'. Saying that, he lowered his head and held Lin Yuan's face: "Yuan'er, will I take you to the front line today?" ”

Yun Dan stood on the side, watching Lin Yuan being held in the emperor's arms, although there was gloom on his face, he didn't dare to attack. She smiled and said: "Concubine Niangniang should go for a ride on horseback, the scenery here is very different from the capital, it is very magnificent." ”

Lin Yuan's heart calmed down inch by inch.

She came to Beisai on her own initiative, and the emperor had no intention of reproaching her, thinking that she was restless or that she was causing trouble for herself. Obviously, Tuoba Hong understands the fierce competition between the East Palace and King Wu now, and is happy to see Concubine Shu, who is the mother of the East Palace, come thousands of miles to pave the way for her son, and is also happy to see the East Palace climb up under pressure.

Although King Wu got along with the emperor day and night and fought side by side, it seems that the emperor's heart is still biased towards the East Palace.

For the East Palace and the crown prince's seizure of the throne, she was exhausted, and her life was full of suffering and anxiety, but in front of Tuoba Hong, she had a trace of peace of mind.

So she smiled and nodded.

On the second day, the emperor led his troops out of the customs again, accompanied by Concubine Shu and Concubine Zhen.

When the army is in battle, there are vanguards and flanks. The emperor's holy drive was at the center of the army, and Lin Yuan and Yun Dan, women who should not have appeared, followed at the end of the line on horseback. The distance between the vanguard army and the main force is often more than ten miles, and from a distance, you can only see the dust flying in front of you, and it is actually very safe to be in the middle of the army.

The drums shook the sky, and across the Heishui River, Lin Yuan saw the battle flag of the Huns.

And around him were hundreds of thousands of troops of the Qin army and cavalry stretching for dozens of miles. She had just gone with the others through a meadow, where the soil was all red. Yun Dan told her that a few months ago, the Xiongnu and the Qin fought for Jingbian City, and the Xiongnu were defeated, and 50,000 captives were killed on the spot and buried in this grassland.

That's why it's red.

Her heart was grabbed, and she was so shocked. It turned out that this was the battlefield, a myth made of blood and bones, a myth that symbolized the prestige of the empire.

"Don't worry, we won't be in danger." Yun Dan smiled at her calmly, "We are at the end of the army. You see, in front are King Wu and General Luo leading the flank soldiers and horses. ”

King Wu was still young, and although he received the title of general, he was only ordered by the emperor to follow the general Luo Rongzhen and lead the duties of deputy general.

Lin Yuan's eyes narrowed. Can I lead an army when I am just 10 years old?

In the Qin State, it was an unwritten rule for the son of the military general clan to go to the battlefield at the age of ten. And the Chu family and the Shangguan family, who are distinguished by their military exploits, have strict ancestral training, and the fathers and sons on the battlefield, even if they are sons of descendants, must start from nobodies, and climb up step by step with merit.

is just the prince of the royal family, they fight and make meritorious contributions, mostly to seize the throne. It is not surprising that as soon as he entered the battlefield, he had the title of commander-in-chief.

Lin Yuan understood what a formidable opponent King Wu, a ten-year-old child, was. Behind him stood Xiliang, and Tubo stood.

She must not be taken lightly - the emperor did not blame her for running to Beisai to seize the throne without authorization, but he also did not blame King Wu for leading troops out of the palace without authorization. Unlike Emperor Kang Jing, Tuoba Hong is not the kind of father who has only one child in his eyes, and he gives all children a fair chance. Seeing that King Wu had succeeded in practicing martial arts at a young age, and was not afraid of life and death to go to the battlefield in person, he was very relieved and willing to cultivate King Wu.

If King Wu is indeed better than the East Palace......

Lin Yuan's fingers gripping the reins tightened suddenly.

The pinky finger was scratched with a layer of blood. She slowly wiped off the handkerchief, looked sideways at Yun Dan, and said gently: "Concubine Zhen's riding skills are much better than those of this palace. Oh yes, and how well did those samurai use them? Why don't you see them come out with you today? ”

Yun Dan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled perfunctorily: "What Concubine Shu gave is naturally good." It's just that if you follow the army out of the city today, there must be no surprises, and the concubines don't like so many people to follow. ”

Lin Yuan nodded silently, and turned his head to look at the mountains and snowy peaks at the end of the Beisai grassland.

"Array—" Suddenly, one of the generals shouted hoarsely. Before Lin Yuan could react, the surrounding sergeants had already moved. The accompanying cronies and warriors surrounded the two imperial concubines in the center, while the sergeants next to them drew their bows and quickly rode to the sides, forming a "wild goose formation".

There was a sharp whistle in front, and the wind and sand suddenly blew, and Lin Yuan looked in horror only to find that on the grassland about a mile away, there was a black sergeant attacking from the opposite side. The sound of swords colliding was very harsh, and the entourage beside him arched his hand and said: "Niangniang, the sound of the horn is not like that of the Huns." It was the Mongols who attacked. ”

Lin Yuan's mind was blank, she didn't expect that she would experience a hand-to-hand encounter so soon. When he left the city on this day, Tuoba Hong was going to cross the Heishui River to attack the border of the "Shan Yuting" and the Xiongnu tribe. But the Mongols intervened.

Luo Rongzhen drew his long sword, pointed it straight at the sky, and shouted, "Wang Sima led the army back to defense!" Jingbian City is empty, and the Mongols will take the opportunity to attack the city! ”

The military order was like a mountain, and the yellow sand was raised beside Lin Yuan, and a team of about 30,000 men and horses hurriedly rode back. More sergeants around him moved forward under the orders of several generals.

Lin Yuan was far away, and he couldn't even see the shield array in front of him clearly, but the crisp metal sound of the bow and arrow shooting on the shield was still like thunder. The sergeant at the front was three rows of men and horses holding shields to defend, although they were well-trained in Suri, but after a while, there were still arrows that broke through the shield wall and slashed Lin Yuan's clothes.

Lin Yuan watched as a henchman who was blocking in front of him was shot through the head by an arrow, rolled and fell off the horse. She covered her mouth so hard that she didn't dare to scream, and her whole body was lying on the horse's back.

"Kill them all!" Tuoba Hong waved his hand and ordered: "Be quick, we must rush to Shan Yuting within today!" ”

Luo Rongzhen frowned. It would have been fine if it had been stragglers, but the Mongols were menacing and numbered tens of thousands of elite soldiers. He still didn't know if they were coming for the life of the Emperor of Qin, or the unscrupulous Jingbian City behind him.

The Qin army turned its horse to meet the Mongols attacking from the flank. Because of the surprise attack, the Mongols initially gained the upper hand, and the Qin people then stabilized the shield array, which was able to reduce casualties. The vanguard general Feng Huaien took the lead in leading people to open a "cone formation" and directly insert into the Mongolian army.

"Please return to the city...... a general, hurrying to the emperor's side, persuading: "If you are attacked today, Shan Yuting is afraid that it will be shelved." The Mongolian army is brave, we can't be in a hurry, returning to Jingbian City is the best policy! ”

The fighting ahead has become more and more intense. The 10,000 pioneers led by Feng Huaien were blocked too much by the Mongolian shield array, and they couldn't open the gap for a long time. Another general surnamed Zhang saw that the enemy was fierce, and the emperor was in a hurry, so he ordered to pull up the "wooden cone" buried deep in the grass.

Wooden cones have always been the last line of defense, and a row of large, sharpened blocks of wood are pulled up diagonally and pointed at the enemy. Our men and horses can step on wooden cones and jump along the slope to the opposite side, while the cavalry comes from the opposite side, and few horses can jump over, and most of them will be poked to death by the tip of the wood. When this thing is pulled up, there are no more hole cards.

"Shan Yuting must take it within seven days, and it can't be delayed any longer." Tuoba Hong is very persistent: "At any cost, solve this team of Mongolian people!" ”

The herald quickly passed the holy decree to Feng Huaien's ears at the forefront. He wiped the blood from his face, helplessly looked at the strong enemy shield wall in front of him, and had to raise his sword again to rush to kill.

"Pull up the fifth row of wooden cones!" He shouted.

The fifth row of wooden cones burst out of the ground, lying between the vanguard and the main army.

This means that the Vanguard, as soon as they turn back, will crash into the wooden cone. Feng Huaien used the simplest art of war, fighting against the odds.

Desperate to survive, the vanguard army really increased bravely. Feng Huaien took the lead in the Mongol army.

The arrows of the rear army flew overhead, aiding the vanguard. More sergeants stepped on the wooden cones and joined the melee combat.

Even the young King Wu came on horseback.

The war is in full swing. Tuoba Hong's face was gloomy, and his heart was very annoyed. He saw the Mongol reinforcements coming from the sky, a rough estimate of hundreds of thousands.

Of course, Feng Huaien also saw it. Some of his soldiers began to panic, but none of them could jump over the wooden cones, so they did not dare to desert.

Feng Huaien shouted for killing, and led his troops deeper and deeper into the Mongol hinterland. Seeing this, the Mongol generals immediately ordered heavy troops to surround Feng Huai'en, but they were broken by the rear sergeants of the Qin army.

This battle is destined to be difficult.

Suddenly, the enemy forces in front of them had a tendency to retreat. Feng Huaien pursued for several hundred meters, and the Mongols around him retreated. Tuoba Hong's expression changed, and he asked, "They are still beating drums just now, why did they withdraw?" ”

The herald rushed between the two armies, and after a while, he brought back the news: "The Mongol concubine and the eldest son of the Khan are in the center of the two armies to persuade peace. ”

"Wen Zhuang?" Tuoba Hong's eyes narrowed slightly.

Two years ago, the Mongol Khan King died of illness, and Yuan Lie supported Wen Zhuang, who had his eldest son, as the main room.

In these years, Qin and Mongolia have been at war, and Tuoba Hong has long ceased to count on Wenzhuang, who is close to him. But if Wenzhuang has a little ability, the Mongols will not turn against the Qin people. He also thought that as a friendly emperor, Wen Zhuang was afraid that he had been executed in accordance with the old Mongolian practice.

However, later he got the news that Wen Zhuang was respected as the concubine of the Golden Horde. Takubahiro was furious that time.

It is clear that Wenzhuang is on the side of Mongolia, regardless of the mother country for personal gain.
