Chapter 399: Pulling out the camp and setting off
In the third year of Shunchang, Budo, the king of Yige, led 100,000 iron cavalry to gather on the border between Dazhou and Yige.
Lu Cheng'an, the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was ordered to lead an army of 100,000 to the border to prevent the Ige army from moving south.
Emperor Shunchang, escorted by the chamberlain, personally sent the Duke of Zhenguo to the gate of the city.
And the dragon sword that the emperor can use will be given to the prince of Zhenguo, and he will go into battle to kill the enemy instead of Emperor Shunchang.
The people were so moved that they knelt on the ground and shouted long live.
The morale of the Great Zhou Dynasty reached its peak for a while.
Qin Ranran stood on the city tower, looking at Lu Cheng'an, who was wearing armor and holding the dragon sword, silent.
Lu Jiu stood beside her, his expression alert.
The morning sun was rising, and the footsteps of the army were in unison, and they all headed west.
"Let's go back." It wasn't until the figure could no longer be seen that Qin Ranran spoke.
Lu Jiu nodded, and together with Banxia, he helped Qin Ranran down the city tower and returned to the carriage.
Mr. Beichen has been looking forward to it for a long time.
Xiao Hua has not come back from Suzhou, Xiao Ye also camped with the army, and Mr. Beichen stayed in Shangjing to take care of Qin Ranran and let Lu Chengan feel at ease.
After Qin Ranran returned home, she found that Lu Huaijin was looking unhappy.
"Mother, where did Dad go? Why didn't Dad take us along? ”
As soon as he said this, Qin Ranran's heart, which had already calmed down, was a little sour.
"Your father took those uncles and uncles to war, and the countries in the west came to invade us and rob us of our food and silver, do you think you should beat them up so that they don't dare to come again?"
Mr. Beichen squatted beside Lu Huaijin and asked him softly.
Lu Huaijin crossed his fingers and thought for a while, then hugged Ahri beside him: "Will they snatch Ahri away?" ”
Mr. Beichen couldn't help laughing: "Yes, they will not only snatch Ahri, but also beat it in front of all the people, deny it food, and pluck out its hair." ”
When Lu Huaijin heard this, he hugged Ahri tightly: "Let Dad beat them!" These are the bad guys! ”
Ahri: I'm just a kitten, why should I have to endure this?
Looking at Ahri's somewhat dull face, Lu Huaijin hurriedly rubbed it and comforted: "Ahri, don't be afraid, I'll go and learn martial arts with my grandfather now, whoever dares to hurt you will beat him to cry!" ”
Qin Ranran's originally sour heart suddenly became a little untenable.
She showed a shallow smile: "Then you go and learn from grandpa, and don't ask grandma to ask spiders to scare Ahri." ”
Lu Huaijin smiled embarrassedly: "Got it, mother." ”
Ahri followed Qin Ranran to the main courtyard, the bear child showed himself all kinds of strange insects every day, as a little kitten that was very easy to blow up, it was enough.
After sending her son away, Qin Ranran leaned on the pillow with her somewhat sore waist.
I don't know what's wrong, I always feel very tired when I am pregnant.
Thinking about it, she hugged Ahri and fell into a deep sleep.

"Grandpa Guo, five miles ahead is a flat forest, do you want to camp for the night?"
Lu Yi rode his horse to Lu Cheng'an's side and asked.
Lu Chengan looked at the sky and nodded slowly: "Let everyone camp and rest, and continue to hurry tomorrow." ”
When the soldiers reached the woods, they set up camp.
"You say, can we win this battle?"
A very young child, who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen, spoke.
An older soldier next to him patted the top of his head: "Zhen Guogong took us to fight, it must be no problem." ”
The young soldier looked at the campfire on the ground and sighed.
"My brother is also in this barracks, and I don't know under which banner he is. When my mother heard that both of us brothers were going to war, her eyes were almost blinded from crying......"
Lu Cheng'an, who was standing not far behind them, listened to the young soldier's whispers, and his heart felt sad.
"It stands to reason that a family only needs one adult strong man for military service, why are there two in your family?"
The old soldier asked a little strangely.
The young soldier scratched his head: "There are some rich families in our town who don't want to serve in the military, so they give us money to let the children of poor families do it for them. Liu Yuanwai gave us silver, and my eldest brother and I went to the city to buy a shop and collect rent for my mother to live a good life. ”
The old soldier also sighed when he heard this: "Who let us have no silver, so we can only gamble with our lives." ”
After a moment of silence, the young soldier suddenly looked at the moon in the sky and sighed, "I want to live well and go back to honor my mother." ”
Lu Chengan stood there without saying a word, listening to what they said, and felt even more deeply what a hateful thing war is.
One will be successful, and ten thousand bones will wither.
For many generals, they love war, and even long for it to break out.
After all, it is only at these times that they will have the opportunity to be promoted.
It is really difficult to get promoted without the support of military merit.
Once, Lu Chengan was also extremely eager for war, so that he could appear in Shangjing with dignity and dignity, and he no longer had to bear the name of the outer room.
But the later remnants of the wilderness made him completely understand how ridiculous his thoughts were.
It was only after the real experience of war that he realized how heavy the glory that was built on the lives of others.
He really doesn't want to go through this again if he could.
Before the people around him could see him, he quietly retreated as he had come.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, everyone was ready to set out for camp.
Lu Chengan rode on his horse and looked back to the east.
It's getting farther and farther away from Shangjing.
I don't know if Ran Ran slept well last night, and whether Huai Jin was obedient.

"The King." Mei Yin stood at the door of the military tent with a white porcelain soup cup.
"Meiyin, why are you here, didn't you let you have a good rest?"
Buduo, who was in a daze at the sand table, raised his eyes and saw Mei Yin, and quickly got up to meet him.
I have to say that Budo treats Meiyin excellently.
After two years on the throne, there were no other concubines in the palace except for Mei Yin, the queen of the main palace.
Even if Mei Yin became pregnant two years later, he resisted the pressure and did not release people into the palace.
Mei Yin only felt that she was married to a lover and treated Budo more respectfully and obediently.
Seeing that his daughter not only became a queen, but also the only one in the palace, he also did his best to treat Budo.
It can be said that Budo was able to suppress all the opposition in the country of Ig within two years, and the right prime minister contributed a lot.
"King, drink some ginseng soup."
Mei Yin saw that there was no one else in the military tent, so she cautiously went in and handed over the soup cup in her hand.
Budo took it and put it on the table, and helped Meiyin to sit down next to the table.
"You're a man with a body."
"The king is worried about the war?" Mei Yin looked at the sand table and asked cautiously.
Buduo nodded: "Lu Chengan, this opponent, is very difficult to entangle." ”
