Chapter 8: On the Battlefield

Chen Feng'er's words fell. There was silence in the tent, and the generals who spoke just now also turned their eyes to Chen Huyan.

Chen Huyan looked at Chen Hao'er and Zhao Xuechi, who were hanging their heads, raised his hand and said, "The two of you sit down and talk." ”

"On this expedition, I brought my little girl here, firstly, to train her, and secondly, to see if she can adapt to the military environment and whether she is willing to fight with us.

This result was also unexpected. Before, I underestimated this kid a little. This time, I want to give her a chance too. Not as a general, only as an ordinary soldier. ”

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar in the tent. Zhao Xuechi also raised his head in surprise. You must know that fighting as a soldier means that no one cares about your life or death, and no one will protect you or even answer you. She started as a soldier, climbed to her current position step by step, and knew the difficulties and dangers.

"General, Chen will be your only daughter, please think twice. At least, at least give her a team of cavalry....." the bearded general couldn't help but say.

Chen Huyan didn't respond, just continued to look at Chen Hao'er. Chen Hao'er raised her head and met Chen Huyan's gaze, at that moment, she seemed to understand something, "Father, generals, Hao'er has no military merits, so naturally he can't immediately command the soldiers." Feng'er is willing to participate in the battle as a soldier, please don't worry, Feng'er will protect herself. ”

Chen Huyan nodded and did not continue. Then the topographic map was unfolded, "The army of the Liang State is stationed on the northwest side of Qin'er Mountain, about six or seven miles away from us, and it is not close to it, and it is not far away. However, the terrain of Qin'er Mountain is complicated, and the intersection of our two armies is in the canyon, which is very easy to ambush. ”

Zhao Xuechi nodded, "The last general thinks that he can send archers on the slopes on both sides of the canyon, where there are many rocks and are not easy to be discovered by the enemy. A black-faced general should also respond, "What General Zhao said is extremely true, this terrain, you must not fight without preparation, you should go around the rear of the enemy, attack from front and back, and attack from different directions. ”

"Hao'er, do you have any ideas?" Chen Huyan suddenly asked, Chen Hao'er was listening carefully to everyone's speeches, but was suddenly named, and immediately put out what he was thinking about, "I think that because of the rugged and complex terrain, it is impossible to attack back and forth, once the cooperation is not good, and the order is not delivered in time, the whole army will be annihilated and cannot be reversed." ”

The black-faced general smiled, "In the woman's opinion, my soldiers of the Du Kingdom have experienced a hundred battles, how can there be a message that has not been delivered in time." ”

"General Zhang, I have never doubted the combat ability of the soldiers of Du State, but the soldiers are not tired of deceit, what we can think of, the Liang army may not be unexpected, if the Liang army sends elite soldiers to intercept and kill our heralds halfway, what should it be."

The black-faced general couldn't talk for a while, and Zhao Xuechi opened his mouth to relieve the siege, "What General Zhang and Feng'er said is reasonable, it is better for us to divide the cavalry and infantry into two teams, and we don't need to send orders to heralds, but make an appointment at the time, and attack as soon as the time comes, so that there is no worries." ”

Chen Huyan nodded, "It's a strategy, does anyone else have any ideas?" ”

Everyone talked about their strategies.

Coming out of the big tent, Zhao Xuechi and Chen Hao'er walked towards the women's camp together. "Hao'er, how did you just think that the Liang army would intercept and kill our army's heralds? I didn't expect it. ”

"Sister Xuechi, when you went out to fight during the day, I read your military book in the tent, and it was written, 'Do the opposite', so I took it and sold it."

Zhao Xuechi smiled happily, "Your understanding is high, but I'm still a little worried, can you protect yourself as a soldier." Everyone on the battlefield is red-eyed, but they won't show you mercy. ”

"Sister Xuechi, I'm white. It's just that I've come to the point where I'm destined to be with the barracks for the rest of my life. I went to the battlefield as a soldier, firstly, to increase the morale of the soldiers, and secondly, to leave the generals who questioned me speechless. ”

Capital. Prime Minister's Office.

Yu Nian knelt in front of Prime Minister Yu.

"Unfilial son, you have secretly gone to the General's Mansion three or four times to find that Miss Chen family, and you have been banned for so many days, and you still don't know how to be honest. In vain, I am dedicated to cultivating you, but I am just a vulgar person who is stumped by the love of children like him. Now, I am even more bold, and I dare to have a private meeting with the prince behind my back, what did you say?! Prime Minister Yu was furious.

"Dad, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is nothing more than playing chess with children."

"Are you a fool for me? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has nothing to do, but he is looking for you to play chess? And hide! ”

“......”

"Don't say yes, okay, don't say it, you just kneel here, kneel until you want to say it!" Prime Minister Yu smashed the tea bowl in his hand and got up to leave.

Yu Nian knelt in place, his back still straight. He was indeed extremely disappointed in Prime Minister Yu. used his own son as a scapegoat, and personally ordered him to be killed, no matter how much Yu Zeng begged, it was useless. For some reason, it is so resistant to the General's Palace. Yu Nian has seen General Chen Huyan several times, and he also had a conversation when he came to retire from his relatives, in words and deeds, Chen Huyan is not a wicked person, but treats him politely, but when talking about Prime Minister Yu, Chen Huyan is silent and avoids talking.

Following Prime Minister Yu's time, Yu Nian felt that the goodness in his heart was being impacted again and again, and Prime Minister Yu broke his bottom line again and again, but he was not allowed to make the slightest refutation. He felt as if he couldn't take it anymore. As a manly husband, he also has his own ambitions in his heart, and he also has a mind, and even deep in his heart, he longs for some small powers, so that he can do some good deeds in his time, and even order the people around him to work together for the people, and eliminate the suffering in the world little by little. This had been a luxury for more than a year, and this luxury ended with the first time the prince summoned him privately.

Memories of the rest of the year: Listening to the Wind Building. Prince.

"I know you're different from your father." Du Zhenhe said straight to the point, "You don't want to take over the position of prime minister from him and be subject to him for the rest of your life." ”

Yu Nian looked at Du Zhenhe in his usual clothes in silence.

"So I want to ask you to help me with one thing. Of course, not for nothing. When this is done, I will grant you the position of prime minister, and I will also list your father's crimes myself. You know, I've got a lot of his handles in my hands. ”

"My father is devoted to you, and thinks of you in everything, why did you abandon him?"

"Yu Nian, are you stupid. Your father is not for me, he is for himself, for his glory and wealth, over the years, how many silver taels he has taken out from the hands of the prince's mansion, and how many people's fat and people's ointment have been looted. For more than a few years, I'm afraid even you can't count it. ”

"What do you want me to do?"

Du Zhenhe smiled slightly, "My prince is tired of being the emperor and wants to be the emperor." ”

"What?" Yu Nian's hand shook the tea bowl.

"My father is old and can no longer serve as a councilor. If it weren't for the mediocre and incompetent nature of my brothers, he wouldn't have noticed me who he had discarded and made me the crown prince. Du Zhenhe put away the smile on his face.

"But what do you want me to do?"

"I'm 90% sure, but I need a competent assistant to help me do it."

"What's the matter?"

"I need someone who has been in and out of the palace all the year round, but who seems to have nothing to do with me, to guard the door of my father's palace when I force the palace. It's simple, you can do it. ”

"Why me?"

"Because you're just like me, you have ambitions. Of course, more importantly, the same disgust with his father. ”

Yu was silent for a long time. Du Zhenhe took a sip of tea and said softly, "Don't worry, you have time to think about it." ”

Yu Nian suddenly raised his head and looked directly into Du Zhenhe's eyes, "Will you be a good emperor?" ”

"I don't know. At least, better than him. ”

"You can promise that you will no longer displace the people and no more corrupt officials and traitors."

"Yes."

"Okay."

"What?"

"Okay, I promise you." Yu Nian clenched the tea bowl.

Pulling himself back from his memory, Yu Nian knelt in the main hall, staring at the broken tea bowl.

Let's end it all before she returns.

It's late at night again, and it's going to be on the battlefield on a cloudy day, Chen Hao'er can't sleep, tossing and turning. Something seemed to smack her on her chest. Chen Hao'er took out a small black bag from her chest.

Yu Erbi, what are you doing?

The jade cherry blossom was taken out of the bag, and it was still as clear and clean as when I first saw it.

Yu Erbi, I'm going to go to the battlefield on a cloudy day, please bless me. Bless me with peace.

Bless me for my safe return and see you.
