Although the family lives frugally, considering that Xiaolang and Ah Cao are easily hungry, and Siniang is also continuing to grow taller, there is always something to eat at home.

So she picked up a small dried fish and opened the letter as she chewed it.

The letter was sent by Dong Bai - to be precise, it was sent by Lu Bai.

After Liu Bei broke Yuanshu, he returned to Xiapi, handed over his main army to Guan Yu, continued to guard Guangling, and maintained the offensive against Yuanshu with Chen Deng.

Guangling was looted by Sun Ce once, and was also looted by Yuan Shu once, before the arrival of autumn, grain and grass were not self-sufficient, so it was necessary to transport grain to Guangling under Pi Tancheng, and Dong Bai's "healthy women's battalion" was transferred to be a man who transported grain.

This matter did not set off any heated discussions after Liu Bei came back, mainly because the scholars of which dynasty and generation were full of food, clothing, and farts before they could point fingers, and Xuzhou was originally a time of life and death for "men to fight and women to be lucky", and it was nothing to recruit this group of little women to transport food.

But now something is wrong.

As we all know, Yuan Shu and his brother Yuan Shao's people have a dotted diagonal.

Yuan Shao attracts like-minded families all over the world, and Yuan Shu attracts thieves from all walks of life.

When the family came to defect, there was money, food and tribes, and when the thieves and grass bandits defected, they were often crowded, and their combat effectiveness was not enough.

When Liu Bei counterattacked, these people ran very fast, so the entire formation collapsed very quickly, and it was easy to understand why the combat effectiveness of the Danyang soldiers was quite good in this area.

…… But these people also have merit.

They ran very fast, so there was very little loss of heads, and there were many jungles near Guangling, so they quickly found a place to hide, avoided this wave of limelight, and did not dare to go back to find Yuan Shu.

In the past few days, this group of thieves has made a rebellion and robbed a wave of baggage, so Guangling's food is tight, and more people need to be requisitioned to continue to transport grain to Guangling, so Lu Bai and her group of little women followed all the way south.

For the sake of her being General Lu's sister, when the messenger returned to Xiapi to report the news, he also brought Lu Bai's family letter.

After reading it, she was not good.

[Do you want to write a letter to send her back? Black Blade was a little surprised, "Why? 】

[She is not a combatant, how dangerous it is for her to go to Guangling! ] 】

[Uh-huh, uh-huh. 】

[She doesn't have a weapon,] she said, "Although she doesn't know much about drill formations, it's not like real war. 】

The real war is extremely chaotic, and the soldiers of the Fenglin Volcano on the battlefield may be quickly strangled without arguing the direction, and it is good to hear the sound of the golden drum! Often, at the end of a war, both sides had to send another army of soldiers and horses to regroup their scattered soldiers, among whom there were lost, those who escaped, and those who went to the opposite camp in a daze to be taken prisoner.

She's talking about the regular army.

[Uh-huh, uh-huh. The Black Blade gave a perfunctory response.

[And she doesn't even have a weapon now!] Neither did her little women! She said, "I've figured it out! Anyway, I'm already a female general now! I'll take her with me, and those little women can also be my own soldiers, honor guards, no problem, right? 】

[No problem.] 】

She unfolded the small board on which she had written, and took the block of ink to sharpen it.

Then the land hanger stopped.

[Why didn't you write it?] 】

【…… I can't write. 】

In her opinion, the combat effectiveness of those little women was almost ridiculous, and they couldn't protect her when the enemy came, so she wanted to transfer Lu Bai back.

…… But Lu Bai will not come back.

The clumsy and cowardly women were her soldiers.

And she's their general.

This is the fifteenth day that Lu Bai has left Xiapi.

The middle of the team had been repaired in Yandu, and some food had been replenished, and now it was slowly marching towards Guangling City.

After passing through those muddy sections, during the journey south, Lu Bai actually felt pretty good.

She is Lu Lian's younger sister, born beautiful, and has never been married.

The soldiers in the baggage camp would never dare to treat her lightly, and the young petty officers had some more secretive and unrealistic wishes.

They all felt that Lu Lian agreed with her to set up a "healthy women's camp", and left Xiapi's mansion, and it was completely conniving and nonsense to come here to endure hardships.

But since such nonsense can also be agreed, it can be seen that her status in her brother's heart.

Her brother came from a humble background, but there are few sons of these martial artists, so they not only do not pick on Lu Bai's background, but have more ardent expectations - everyone is also a good match, and they do not humiliate each other, so if she takes a fancy to one of them, that person will not only be able to hold such a beauty, but also have an uncle who is deeply valued by Liu Yuanjun and famous all over the world as support, do you still need to worry about career affairs from now on?

All their hopes fell on her, but she laughed them off and never expressed them.

But today is different.

The blazing sun fell on everyone, and there was not even a trace of wind in the air, but there was a large swamp on the east side of the road, and the damp was constantly steaming up, and the surroundings seemed even more sultry, and even the mules and horses pulling the carts had to stop and rest from time to time.

No matter how cold the beauties are, they will become haggard and tired in such weather.

But Lu Bai was not tired at all, but she felt a chill in this stuffy heat.

As they passed a hill, there was news from scouts in front of them that there were five or six thousand thieves, who seemed to be the rout of the bridge, and were coming towards the convoy.

The general immediately became nervous.

"Knife hand! The knife hand is ahead! ”

"Spearmen flanks!"

"Put the car down! Bring it down! ”

The men were busy with fear and nervousness, and her little women immediately began to panic and follow to help, quickly turning the carts into rudimentary antlers.

Even so, they only had more than a thousand men, and their equipment was so rudimentary, that they could not withstand an enemy several times their size.

So someone has already started whispering.

How do I escape?

"It's dangerous here!" The general walked over, and as soon as he saw her, he immediately wanted to invite her to a safe position behind this defensive line, "I will send a few personal soldiers and ask the girl to hide in the swamp!" ”

Before she could speak, a woman behind her grabbed the corner of her clothes with trembling hands, "Those thieves...... Those thieves! ”

The general glanced at the woman, and immediately said, "The girl leads these women into the swamp to hide!" ”

Then the women's faces were filled with joy.

She glanced left and right a few times, down from their faces, at their hands, then at their feet, and then at their faces again.

Gone were the look of vigour and pride that had been practiced in the camp, replaced by exhaustion and deep fear.

"Okay." Lu Bai said softly, "Just listen to the general." ”

Before the women had time to bloom with joyful expressions on their faces, Lu Bai spoke again.

"But there is one more thing, ask the general."

The general frowned slightly.

At the moment of life and death, he invited these women out, also to prevent them from crying and screaming and disturbing the morale of the army, so how could he have the heart to listen to Lu Bai talk about the conditions again?

But the girl's black and white, seemingly ruthless and affectionate eyes looked at him, and the general's heart softened.

"Girl, please speak."

"The general's flag, and the cloth in the car," she said in a calm tone, "lend me some to use." ”

Chapter 167

Although he has learned all the knowledge and skills that a noble girl should learn since he was a child, Dong Bai still cannot be called from a family.

She is the daughter of a border general, and her grandfather, despite his heinous crimes, no one can question his strength in his prime, and it was he who repelled the attacks of the Qiang people again and again and guarded the stability of Guanzhong.

When Dong Bai was very young, she sat on her grandfather's lap and fell asleep listening to these stories, so she knew many techniques for camping and drilling, marching, and combat.

When she came up with her ideas, her grandfather would touch his thick beard and laugh and say, "It's not my granddaughter, if Ah Bai is a man, he must also be a brave general." ”

"Father must be amusing me," Xiao Dong Bai said, "How can I be so powerful!" ”

"Hmm...... Although it is not so powerful now, but in the future," Dong Zhuo patted the top of her head, "In the future, the eldest father will choose a good family for you, your husband, your son, will be a world-famous brave general!" ”

Later, her grandfather did not choose a military general husband for her, but quietly moved his mind to send her to the palace and become the queen...... Of course, her grandfather's efforts failed, but that wasn't the point she occasionally recalled.

She just remembered her grandfather's words.

…… It was really amusing her.

She has now become Lu Bai, and she gradually understands why her brother was so embarrassed when he formed the army.

She kept the barracks in order, the military discipline was strict, and the little women were very obedient and perfect.

But now they couldn't even follow her command, and retreated into the swamp in an orderly manner.

The little women held each other and dragged each other and looked around in fear, not bothering to hear what she was saying, and even when she told them to stop, there was a sharp cry of objection.

"Why did the girl stop us?"

"We don't even have weapons, just these long sticks!"

"What's the use of taking these cloth flags!"

"It's better to run away, if the thief comes, it will be difficult to ensure that you will not suffer!"

Lu Bai was very surprised in his heart, "Why do you want to follow Rong?" ”

The faces of the women showed a look of hesitation, and one of them dared to speak, "I only thought that I would walk near Xiapi, but I would have thought that I could encounter such a disaster!" ”

"If I had known...... Even at home, I was just beaten a few more times by my husband! ”

"Not bad...... In fact, I also thought that I would have something to eat when I came to the camp......"

"Those men! They ran away, too! Why don't you let us escape! ”

The more such a group of people chattered, the faster Lu Bai's heart froze inch by inch.

"Are you fast-legged, or are the thieves fast-legged?"

The women looked at each other.

"They want food and grass, as long as the hundred or so of us flee together, they may not come after us."

"You have also heard, they have five or six thousand people, and this team is only a thousand people, why can't they come after you?"
