Evening.

The garrison of the Changsheng army, the brightness of the torches has been on for a long time. Chen Chao stood on the high platform and looked at the tens of thousands of soldiers in front of him with serious faces, and the resolute and iron-blooded faces all looked at him.

"Xu Biao!"

"Xiang, Xiangye, I...... I won't stay at home, I'm going to go to Guanwai to fight Goguryeo. Xu Biao's honest face stared nervously at Chen Chao.

For fear that the Chen Dynasty would not let him go to Goguryeo, let him stay and take care of his family.

In this northern expedition to Goguryeo, the Chen Dynasty almost overrode public opinion and insisted on laying down Goguryeo before the spring of next year.

In revenge, Goguryeo took advantage of the fire to rob and storm the revenge of Jinzhou.

But the military officers in the military department almost fell to the ground and believed that Daji and Beidi had just fought a tough battle, and they should rest for two years, and then choose a date to conquer Goguryeo in the north.

Neither side could convince the other.

Chen Chao didn't bother to fight with them.

Decide to use the victorious army and go north immediately!

Looking at the nervous look on Xu Biao's face, Chen Chao couldn't help but feel a little funny, walked up to him, stretched out his hand and formed a fist with five fingers, and smashed it heavily on his chest.

Xu Biao didn't retreat half a point!

"Xu Biao ......"

"Xiangye, I won't stay at home if you say anything, I listened to you last time and stayed at home, this time it's my turn!"

Without waiting for Chen Chao to finish speaking, Xu Biao grabbed the words.

Last time, Murong Chong led 20,000 elite horsemen to raid the rear of Beidi and set foot on Wolf Mountain, Xu Biao didn't go, this time he had to go anyway.

"Xiangye, I ......"

Xu Biao still wanted to speak, but when he saw Chen Chao raise his hand, he reluctantly closed his mouth, and suddenly heard in his ears, "It's so frustrating, I originally let you go this time." ”

"Really?" Xu Biao raised his head suddenly.

"Absolutely."

Hearing this, Xu Biao immediately became ecstatic, stretched out his hand and wanted to hug Chen Chao fiercely to express the joy in his heart, Chen Chao quickly raised his hand to stop it, Xu Biao changed his goal, hugged a general next to him, and his two arms were like pliers, almost strangled him to death.

Unlike the last time the elite cavalry raided the rear of Beidi, it was mainly disturbed.

This time, the army marched north to Goguryeo, and wanted to attack the city and plunder the land all the way, destroying the small country of Goguryeo, and Xu Biao's sword and shield battalion was suitable for this task.

"Three sharp knives, Gao Dajun!"

The two of them lined up and looked at Chen Chao.

Li Sandao was originally the captain of the bow and crossbow battalion of the Changsheng Army, but since the musket battalion was built, he became the captain of the musket battalion.

As for Gao Dajun, he was originally a member of the "Wei" battalion of the Xu Jiajun, and he was the best at attacking fortifications and interspersing.

But since he broke an arm, his strength is not as good as before, and he can no longer lead the charge like before, but he really doesn't want to retire from the army, when he sees that there are muskets, artillery and other weapons in this world, he ignited hope again, and volunteered to join the Changsheng Army and become a captain of the artillery battalion.

This way to attack the city and seize the land, it will be much easier to have muskets and artillery.

After ordering a few more generals and gathering enough people, Chen Chao waved his hand and let the generals who were not selected stay to watch the house.

"Gao Dajun, where is the artillery convoy that set off first? It is still a few days away from Jinzhou. Chen Chao asked.

"Xiangye rest assured, the artillery convoy set off half a month before us, and at this time it was less than two days away from Jinzhou City, and when we arrived in Jinzhou, the muzzle of the artillery had already been aimed at Goguryeo outside the city!"

"So much for the best. Let's go back and rest, and leave on time at dawn! ”

Chen Chao gave a few instructions, and after finishing the matter, he left the garrison of the Changsheng Army with Meng Changge beside him.

What makes Chen Chao strange is that in the past few days, Meng Changge's mood has been a little wrong, and he has become less talkative, always with a sad face.

"What's wrong? Don't worry, the northern expedition to Goguryeo is a battle that must be won, don't listen to the nonsense of others. You are also a soldier, you should know better than me whether this battle can be won or not, and I will come back safe and sound. ”

"Hmm. I know. Meng Changge nodded, suddenly sniffed, raised his head and looked at Chen Chao with a pair of bright eyes, "Eldest sister, Yue'er is leaving with the children, you are going north to fight tomorrow morning, you are all gone...... Me, I'm leaving, too. ”

Chen Chao paused and looked at the woman beside him.

Meng Changge secretly wiped her wet eyes, deliberately not looking at Chen Chao beside her, the wind ruffled her hair, "I've been out for a long time, and my sister is still waiting for me to go back in Qinguo." ”

Chen Chao reached out to hug her and touched her hair. This time, if it weren't for Meng Changge leading troops to rush thousands of miles to help, the capital would be in danger, and Meng Changge and her Qin army saved Daji's life.

But now, she is going back with her troops, and she doesn't know when she will be able to meet Chen Chao.

"Don't cry, as soon as the matter in Goguryeo is over, we will start to deal with Meng Guogong, and when we defeat him, we can be together forever and never be separated again."

Having said that, Meng Guogong took advantage of Xirong's emptiness and sent troops to capture Xirong, and his strength soared, so how easy is it to defeat Meng Guogong?

Walking to the gate of the camp, Chen Chao whistled.

The big black horse wandering in the distance trotted over with four hooves.

Chen Chao helped Meng Changge onto the horse, got on the horse himself, rode with her, wrapped his arms around her from behind, and did not let anyone follow.

The two rode horses, walking aimlessly.

The moonlight is like water, and the official road is silent.

Meng Changge suddenly raised his hand, touched Chen Chao's face behind him, and said very seriously: "I don't know when we will meet next time, it may be a year, it may be two years, maybe three or four years...... Chen Chao, you leave a message for the two sisters. ”

Chen Chao frowned.

I saw Meng Changge in his arms slowly take off his clothes, move on horseback and face to face with Chen Chao, put his arms around Chen Chao's neck, kiss the corners of his lips, and look serious:

"Leave a ...... for our sisters Child. ”

Chen Chao frowned slightly, was stunned for a moment, hugged Meng Changge in his arms more and more tightly, turned the horse's head and walked towards the grove next to him......

Everyone is gone, Meng Changge is also leaving, and she wants to return to Qin.

I don't know when I will be able to meet Chen Chao again, she wants to leave a thought.

Whenever she sees this thought, it is as if Chen Chao is by her side.

There is no hope that one blow will be hit, and the thoughts of parting have turned into a puddle of jade water in the night, and in the meadow of the woods, the seeds of life have been planted.

Many years later, Chen Chao was already standing on top of the world, with many women around him, but he still remembered clearly, in that grove, he remembered Meng Changge's whispered groans in his ears.

……

……

Early morning.

When the first rays of morning light appear in the eastern sky.

The two rode to the gate of the barracks, Chen Chao carefully hugged Meng Changge, and in the morning breeze, Meng Changge's cheeks were rosy.

She stood in front of Chen Chao and carefully straightened his clothes.

"Go, when you go in, I'm going back to Qin."

Chen Chao pursed his lips, nodded, and left the horse to her. Walking into the camp step by step, looking at Chen Chao's back, Meng Changge resisted the urge to shed tears, covered his mouth, and whimpered quietly.

The big black horse rubbed his face lightly against his master, comforting.

"I'm fine, let's go back, go back to Qin......"

"When we defeat the surnamed Meng, the world is one family, and we can be reunited with our husband forever......"

Meng Changge turned over and got on the horse, held the reins, and without any pause, turned the horse's head, and galloped in the direction of Qin......

In the breeze, Chen Chao paused.

Listening to the sound of horses' hooves getting farther and farther behind him, he fell into deep thought for a moment.
