He Jiuniang knew the directions and distances between several countries in advance. In addition, she had to go to the border to find Prince Jing, so she drove very fast.
Fortunately, the weather was good along the way and we encountered no special circumstances. We arrived at the border at noon the next day.
Finding a safe place to land, He Jiuniang dressed up as a messenger soldier, showed the token given by Lu Baichuan, and entered the military camp easily.
This is the first time she has come to a border military camp in this era. The sky is full of yellow sand, the environment is not good, and the situation of the soldiers in the military camp is not optimistic either.
At first glance, they looked lazy and lifeless. Some people were injured, and the bandages of their wounds were rough.
The soldiers were in such a state. No wonder the Dongting people didn’t take the 100,000 troops on the border seriously.
He Jiuniang glanced at it, then walked through the crowd and walked towards the main tent.
"Have you heard, we seem to be going to fight Dongting!"
"Just a slap in the face, that is, just casually saying, we have to fight early!" "
"Not necessarily. You haven't seen that His Highness Prince Jing has been very interested in it recently. Maybe the wind direction in the court has changed."
"If you want to fight, fight early, I I have been here on the border for four or five years, and I have only fought a few serious battles. I already know how angry those little brats are, but I am so frustrated to death!”
…
Although they are stationed at the border, when the other side does not go too far, the generals will turn a blind eye. After all, war cannot be easily started without the intention of the court. That will destroy the appearance. of peace.
If the imperial court really takes the blame, it will basically be these generals who will bear the responsibility, ranging from having their posts reduced to having their homes confiscated and beheaded.
Of course, petty fights are inevitable on weekdays, and the casualties are so small that there is no need to even report them.
Because of this, the soldiers no longer even think about training, and they can't cheer up for anything. It's useless and boring anyway.
He Jiuniang suddenly realized that the soldiers were lifeless because they felt there was nothing to look forward to. No matter how provocative Dongting was, the real war would not break out, so they had no intention of practicing.
In fact, it seems that the soldiers have the right idea. The country does not dare to fight, so what can they do no matter how brave they are? It's better to mess with them.
He Jiuniang frowned and felt that the current situation was not good. If they didn't step up their training, Beiyan's chances of winning would be slim when they actually fought Dongting.
No wonder Prince Jing is soHe hurriedly went to Lu Baichuan to ask for the training manual, but it was really not possible to continue like this.
Soon, they arrived outside the main tent. The soldier who led the way went in to report, and soon came out to let her in.
He Jiuniang thanked her and walked inside. There was only Prince Jing in the tent. He was standing by the desk studying the terrain map, his face full of seriousness.
The first time He Jiuniang saw him, she felt that Prince Jing had changed. He was no longer as unruly as he had seen in the capital before. He was much calmer and his skin was much darker.
Today’s Prince Jing is considered an adult in He Jiuniang’s eyes.
"Your Highness Prince Jing, I am here to deliver a message on General Lu's order. This is General Lu's latest training plan. Please do not spread it outside."
He Jiuniang did He acted like an ordinary soldier, saluted seriously, and his voice was also processed. Prince Jing had no doubts at all.
"How come it's so fast? Logically speaking, he has just received my letter from the king at this moment."
Prince Jing frowned, concerned about this time limit. I was a little skeptical, but I still took the envelope and opened it, and found that it was indeed Lu Baichuan's handwriting, and it also had his personal seal.
It’s just that the handwriting is a little sloppy and it looks like I was writing in a hurry.
He Jiuniang explained: "Our general knew that His Highness was in urgent need, so he asked his subordinates to send him here day and night. He also said that a war was imminent, and asked His Highness to step up his training. He will also lead troops to support the general in a short time. ."
"Oh? He wants to go into battle in person?"
King Jing glanced at He Jiuniang without any doubts, and continued to read the plan written by Lu Baichuan.
This plan is a combination of the experiences and plans of He Jiuniang and Lu Baichuan. It is perfect. However, Prince Jing frowned and felt that it was too idealistic and would be difficult to implement.
"Yes, our general does have this idea. If we really want to fight, our general will never back down."
He Jiuniang closed her eyes and boasted about her man. Prince Jing was very surprised. He nodded in recognition, but then said: "This is indeed his character. However, are you sure this plan will work? When you came here, you should have seen the state of the soldiers outside, let alone training, let them move It’s all difficult.”
As he spoke, he looked up at He Jiuniang, hoping that she could give him an explanation, otherwise he would really doubt the authenticity of this plan.
He Jiuniang opened her mouth and came: "When my general just took over the military camp outside the city, the situation in our military camp was much worse than here. But with the joint training of my sister-in-law and our general, everyone has made progress. It's so fast. If Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can find someone to try to fight with the younger ones. As for what Your Highness is worried about, if they are not willing to cooperate, that would be easier. Your HighnessMy identity is here, and I have to deal with a few thorns in public, who dares to say anything? ”
When He Jiuniang said this, He Jiuniang looked at Prince Jing with a smile. Now Prince Jing finally noticed her and felt that her smile was very familiar.
In memory , that woman also liked to laugh at him slightly mockingly while talking like this.
But, it didn’t matter if he was laughed at by that woman, now even a little soldier dared not take him seriously. ?
However, he did not delve into it, but noticed another important point in her words, and asked: "You said, He Jiuniang also went to the military camp? "
"When the general was too busy, my sister-in-law went to the military camp to help for a while. My sister-in-law is worthy of being a sister-in-law. She taught me all the killer moves that can easily establish a military career! "
As she spoke, she showed an excited look of admiration. Prince Jing looked at her with some disgust and said: "Look at your little potential, you are just a woman! ”
Prince Jing was furious. He didn’t want to admit that he was not as good as that woman at all. Moreover, only when he got here did he realize that the things the woman had given him before could really save lives. Several times he He was almost assassinated, but those things saved him.
There are also Lu Hei Ya’s seasoning packets. There is nothing delicious here, and his mouth is indifferent, all because of those seasoning packets. Hold on!
He Jiuniang glanced at him sideways and said deliberately: "Our sister-in-law has a bad temper. If she knew that His Highness said that about her, she would probably..."
"You If you don't tell her, will she know? "
King Jing gave him a cold look, full of warning.
But why did he feel that the character of this soldier was so similar to that woman? Could it be that he was led by that woman? Are all the soldiers like that?
Are you not even afraid of him anymore?
Thinking of this, she felt unhappy again.
He Jiuniang hurriedly made a decision He looked like he didn't dare to speak nonsense, and his respectful manner was very helpful to Prince Jing.
"Okay, since you are from the capital, let me see what you are capable of. Walk! "
King Jing put the paper in his arms, he was really looking forward to it.
And this soldier dared to take the initiative to show it, which shows that he is still very confident in his own strength. , then let him see if he is really that powerful.
