In half a month, Mei Ying led the guards to visit 22 standard teams, as the lord of the empire, analyzed the plight faced by the students, and sincerely apologized.

To stand out from the standard camp, the leaders of each family are all sensitive, Ling Bo mutiny, the county lord holds the military power, naturally unwilling to be at the mercy of others, and can save his life in a stalemate in the predicament, but as the main general has no military exploits, the future military camp career is destined to be bleak, and it is dangerous to follow the county lord, if she loses, she will inevitably be implicated, but after success, the glory and wealth are uninvited.

"Your Highness, in front of Jicui Pass, the standard team swears to follow you, stay in Sanhe Bay, there is no choice to advance or retreat, and the honor and disgrace of this life are all up to you. ”

People's fate is destined, the county lord is in the Lingbo standard camp, the battle sequence of the people, Jicui Pass is not the main battlefield, but from the whole country to dispatch twenty elite standard teams, which is self-evident, leading the team to Jicui Guancheng, except to follow the county lord There is no way out, most of the team leaders weigh and express their position.

"If Your Highness has an order, the soldiers will never give up, and they will never allow the conspiracy of the rebellious ministers and thieves to succeed. ”

The young team leader, who had asked to meet the county lord and was gently refused, knelt down without hesitation after hearing Mei Ying's explanation and swore loyalty: "The three generations under the mark are all student soldiers, my grandfather died in battle, my father was disabled, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally gave a plaque full of loyalty, and he was awarded the title exceptionally, the glory came from the royal family, and his life was handed over to the county lord, please let me lead the standard team to be the vanguard of the whole army." ”

Tears fell from the corners of Mei Ying's eyes, she helped the leader with both hands, and asked with tears: "How many brothers are the standard chief, have you ever had a family, do you have any heirs?"

"Tell Your Highness, my two brothers, the eldest brother takes care of his father at home to fulfill his filial piety, I have entered the children's camp since I was a child, and I have vowed to win the title with my military exploits, how can I start a family in the border area!"

"How can you start a family if you don't want to be in the borderlands. ”

Mei Ying repeated word by word, the empire has never treated the children's camp badly, and the loyalty of the soldiers has not disappointed the royal family, the three generations of ancestors and grandchildren are either dead or disabled, and now they are willing to be the forward, with this ambition, why worry about fame and wealth, but how can she bear to put pressure on the burden, Gaoyuan reconnaissance is not found to find the enemy's traces, but the soldiers are impermanent, in case of an ambush, the vanguard standard team is more auspicious.

"Your Highness, it is a man's duty to die fighting for the country, please fulfill it and grant me and the standard team the glory of the vanguard. Would you like to?"

"Die for the country, die without regrets! ”

In the military tent, five patrol commanders and one captain of the guard, six of them knelt down with a brush, looking at Mei Ying with blank eyes, there was no fear of danger in their eyes, they were full of enthusiasm for glory, what kind of soldiers would be brought, this standard team was more loyal and enthusiastic.

"The main task of this trip is to build a city, if there is no accident and no battle to fight, you and the standard team as a vanguard is a bit condescending. ”

"Your Highness!"

The team leader and subordinate officers heard the meaning of the words, and the glory of the vanguard was about to slip away from their hands, and they looked at Mei Ying unwillingly, but saw her raise her hand to wipe away her tears, with a solemn expression and a serious tone.

"To build a city, we need to recruit a large number of craftsmen and transport materials thousands of miles, and if the enemy sends the news back, we may fall short. Commander Ouyang Biao, as the county lord of the empire, I order you to lead a team to guard the whole army, cut off the communication between the grassland and Jicui Pass, except for the transport team, no one is allowed to pass through the defense area, you are allowed to act cheaply, and you have the right to kill suspicious people on the spot. ”

"The subordinates received the order and immediately sent cavalry to patrol, but the grassland is nearly a thousand miles wide, and the strength of the standard team is limited, so it may be difficult to completely isolate it. ”

Mei Ying nodded in approval, enthusiastic and cautious, Ouyang Xuan was a general, and explained in a low voice when he heard this: "The king of Xiangyun County will cooperate with the action and use the excuse to close the city to stop the flow of people, your main task is to intercept the smuggling caravans, so that they cannot trade with the grassland tribes, and the required materials have to be exchanged from us." ”

"The bottom of the kettle is drawn, the county lord has a clever layout, and his subordinates are willing to be this guard. ”

"It's not just you, I'll arrange four more standard teams, and it shouldn't be difficult for each of you to defend two hundred miles. Remember, preventing the leakage of information is an external pretext, and the main purpose is to prevent a stitch from flowing into the steppe tribes, completely trapping them economically, and finally forcing them to submit. ”

Mei Ying inspected the standard team, and according to the performance of each family, she either arranged to escort the convoy, or ordered to pretend to be horse bandits to intercept the caravan, or assigned people to find the grassland tribes, and ran down non-stop for more than ten days, and arranged the twenty standard teams properly.

The ambiguous attitude of the two full battalions of Xiangyun County, knowing that they have been bought by the county king, is now asking him to cooperate, can only be written down, and will be completely cleaned up in the future, but yesterday the team leader came with a letter written by the county king, expressing his willingness to be a pioneer, the county king did not say in the letter, a team leader passed his message, and never interfered in the affairs of the standard camp since then, and asked the county lord to send a message to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to appoint another steward and instructor.

Mei Ying didn't know the details at first and dealt with the past casually, but when Gao Yuan said that Fengyun City had an agreement with Excellence, she realized that it was Excellence who persuaded the county king to give in.

This is a transaction, Xiangyun County King from the bid to sell, in exchange for the future queen's commitment not to cut the domain, in the short term the two sides are mutually beneficial, but against the royal long-term planning, cutting the domain is the old king's unforgettable achievement, if you know that Duguying and the county king have reached a tacit understanding, who knows what she will think, maybe she will think that she betrayed the royal interests to form an alliance to seek the position, because there is no good face for Gao Yuan at the meeting, and he is annoyed that he is in charge of such a big thing, and he will transfer Li Longbow away in a fit of anger, and the ghost idea is inseparable from him, but he doesn't know that he has really wronged a good person, Li Changgong doesn't want to go to Fengyun City at all, how can he come up with the idea to join forces with Excellence。

The army is about to start, the atmosphere in the camp is tense, the military affairs group announces the deployment list, all patrols have personnel transfers, officers at all levels are busy, Hua Yue can't care about settling accounts with Gao Yuan, he lies alone in the military tent and sulks. The pro-guard team has no soldiers to send, and the head of Qiu Biao temporarily borrowed Qin Rufeng's personal guard post as a herald, and ostensibly cooperated with Mei Ying to hang Gao Yuan to dry, but in fact he was taking care of the proud disciple, he was tired enough during this time, and he happened to be busy and rest for a few days.

Li Longbow took the time to run to complain, and asked Gao Yuan to scold and drive away, Mei Ying's attitude was confusing, she didn't recruit anyone to provoke anyone after returning to the camp, the task was completed smoothly, it doesn't matter if you don't give a reward, you can't be punished in disguise. Get up and lie down, lie down and get up, back and forth repeatedly more irritable, and say that staying old is not a way, tomorrow you have to march in a hurry, the captain of the bare pole guard, it will make people laugh when you go there, it is better to go directly to Mei Ying to ask for an explanation, it is much better to be scolded by her alone than to be ridiculed by the whole team.

The heralds of the Chinese army's big tent come and go, the instructor of the tactical group will keep handing over the drafted orders to Mei Ying to sign and seal, she and Wen Qing's foreheads are covered with fine beads of sweat, Gao Yuan is heartbroken, what to complain and what to hide, and go to help the instructors with a shy face, Mei Ying looked at him, did not block or send tasks, the officers in the tent were busy with their own work, and even the meals were sent to the tent by the guards, until nightfall, the military affairs team was busy with work, everyone said goodbye and left, and tomorrow the horn sounded to deal with military affairs on horseback.

Mei Ying washed her face and drank water, her face was cold and she didn't speak, Yu Wenjie glanced at her own soldiers, took them quietly and slipped away, letting the two be alone.

"I shouldn't have been angry at you that day, it's been so long, and my anger should have subsided. ”

Mei Ying almost choked on the water, how does this apology sound awkward, the subtext is to blame me for being cautious, and I still care about a few angry words for such a long time.

"That's it, let's go, I still have military work to do. ”

Gao Yuan turned his head and left, it was not my fault, the apology was against my will, and you still issued an eviction order?! But when I walked outside the tent and thought that it was wrong, I was originally here to be scolded, so as not to make more people laugh, how easy it is to go back and talk about it, so I turned back.

"I went out to take a look at the sentry deployment, the Chinese army's big tent is a confidential and important place, and the vigilance cannot be relaxed. made a lame excuse, and said with a cheeky smile: "The sentry can't hear it far away, if you want to be angry, scold, I'll do it myself." ”

Mei Yingxin said that this attitude was about the same, still pretending to be angry, and asked with a sideways face: "You and Zhuo Zhuo agreed that without my authorization in advance, do you know how much trouble it will cause?" Gao Yuan asked puzzledly: "Before leaving, everyone agreed, the standard chief and I went to cooperate with Yan Ning and persuade the county king to cooperate with the plan, I didn't do anything out of line, how could I cause trouble?"

"Cooperation is not cooperation, he is a county king, and he is not qualified to be on an equal footing with the royal family!" Mei Ying sighed and continued to explain: "You are good, you promise to support excellence in my name, which is contrary to my grandfather's plan to cut the domain, you say, is there any greater trouble than this?!"

"So you're angry about this, hehe, I thought I was angry with me before. Gao Yuan's heart was relieved, and he took the opportunity to get closer, Mei Ying tapped the table and stood up: "Still laughing, do you know, even if you grab the grassland, it will be difficult to offset your sins." ”

"You sit down and listen to me. Gao Yuan made a gesture to help her sit down, Mei Ying shook her shoulders and shook her hand away, staring at him with big eyes, Gao Yuan took a half step back with a red face, and hurriedly explained to cover up the embarrassment: "It was an accident to meet Excellence, I didn't agree to his conditions at that time, it was not easy for me and Li Changgong to get out, and he said that he would not plot on the way back to the camp." ”

After carefully explaining the situation of the meeting, Mei Ying's hand on the table clenched into a fist, and reprimanded in an angry low voice: "He dared to send someone to assassinate you and Li Changgong, the heart of disobedience has been revealed, and you still agreed with him to support, is there no other way to get out." ”

"Without the support of the prince of the county, we are bound to lose, how can you deal with yourself at that time? The royal internal strife is ruthless, if the king agrees to set up another prince, it will be difficult to save your life, and what royal interests are considered, everything will be empty when people die. ”

Mei Ying asked quietly: "Do you know that this is a big rebellion, and it is not an exaggeration to exterminate the clan, do you remember your oath of loyalty to the empire?"

"Yu Wenjie once said that there is a difference between loyalty to the empire and loyalty to the royal family. If the royal family chooses to sacrifice you, what does it matter if I betray the Qinghui Empire, at that time, you and I will die in Huangquan, loyalty and disobedience, merit and demerits, let others guide me. ”

"Shut up!"

Mei Ying snorted, nervously looked outside the tent, Gao Yuan Fang wanted to explain that the sentry was far away, she flew into her arms, the two hugged each other, life and death depended on each other, never abandoned, the past misunderstanding disappeared, nephrite was in her arms, Gao Yuan was hot, Mei Ying closed her eyes and sent her lips, the Chinese army tent was in a state of spring, this hug was for life, this kiss was life and death.

Breaking through the qi refining, Gao Yuan's instinctive reaction became strong, and his hands wandered dishonestly on his back, seeing that he was about to reach the sensitive area, Mei Ying pushed him away, and scolded in a low voice with a red face: "Hmph, I went out for more than a month, and I didn't learn well with Li Changgong, and I didn't look at what kind of place this was!"

"If you don't take the initiative, you scold me for not being a coward, and if you are bold, you scold me for not learning well. Gao Yuan muttered aggrievedly, the evil fire can't stop, and he wants to get close again, Mei Ying ran away with a low smile, tidied up her clothes on the side, and had no choice but to sit down at the table to calm down.

"When the city is built and there is a hotel, you can mess around. Mei Ying put her mouth to her ear and whispered, Gao Yuan grabbed her hand and smiled: "Empty promises, and then they will change their methods to torture people." ”

"Okay, don't get cheap and sell well. Mei Ying sat down beside him and assigned the task in a low voice: "The standard team is marching in a hurry, it is difficult to detain Pan Yang and others, take them back and detain them, their lives will be over, let them go to the personal guards, isn't it just gossiping, if you dare to do it, don't be afraid of people talking." ”

Gao Yuan scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "Locked up, talent is rare, put it back, don't worry, it seems that even if I resign, you will be forced to come over." ”

"The dead soldiers of each family will be organized into the pro-guards, they can't make waves, but you can't be too careless, the spies are hidden too deeply, it is always a hidden danger, beware of the black hand plotting. ”
