On the cold night of December 20, 20,000 Nanchuan Army and 20,000 temporarily armed miners braved the wind and snow to touch the dynasty army camp ten miles away.

In normal times, they arrived quickly at such a short distance, but under the wind and snow, it took them two hours to reach the attack position.

Lying on a small hill covered with snow, Lin Chuan looked down at the dynasty military camp camp camping in a depression.

[31 Novel Network] Because it was a temporary camp, the tent of the Dynasty army was covered with the entire depression. Looking around, it was dark. Countless fires in the camp were ignited, and the dynasty soldiers surrounded the fire to keep warm.

Behind the camp were tens of thousands of war horses tied up, and the sound of horses neighing was heard from time to time. The cold weather made the war horses feel a little unbearable.

There was no fence in the camp, only guards holding guns hid in the leeward to gather together to keep warm.

The entire dynasty army camp was completely unprepared. Lin Chuan stretched out his hand that was frozen and stiff and said, "The First Flag Regiment broke down from the hillside on the left, remember to control the war horses first."

Xiao Zhan nodded, tightened his collar, preventing the cold wind from pouring in, and turned around.

"Sergeant Tu Yue, you will take the mine disciples to guard those openings for me. I will wipe out the enemy army and tell the mine disciples that those who fight bravely can join our Nanchuan Army."

Tu Yue slapped her chest and turned around and shouted at the miners: "Mini disciples, brothers! The general said that those who have made meritorious service this time will be allowed to join our Nanchuan Army."

The miners followed Tu Yue happily.

The Nanchuan Army has good treatment and good welfare. These homeless miners want to join the Nanchuan Army, but were rejected by Lin Chuan before because Lin Chuan needed to ask Mucheng for instructions. Now Mucheng's instructions have been issued, so Lin Chuan dared to say so.

In the snow around the depression, countless soldiers in white robes of Nanchuan Army crawled forward like wriggling bugs, constantly approaching the camp of the Dynasty Army.

As the commander, Lin Chuan also joined the attacking ranks at this moment to make up for the shortcomings of military strength. It is obvious that the senior officers joined the attacking team greatly improved their morale.

The tent of the Governor Nagala is located in the center of the camp. It is located in the gold-edged tent outside the tent with three steps and one whistle in five steps, and is under high vigilance.

The Governor's tent is like a small house with a large space inside, with a sufficient amount of 30 square meters. The thick tent blocks separate the howling cold wind from the outside, and the brazier in the tent is burning vigorously.

Although the Black Mountain iron mine area was captured, Nagaro did not take it too seriously. When the wind and snow stopped and the army arrived, the rebels would be wiped out by him.

In the governor's tent, the atmosphere was warm and the wine was filled with wine. Governor Nagaro had just taken the 51st concubine, and the generals were raising their glasses to celebrate.

In fact, two days ago, Nagala had only fifty concubines, but he passed by a village during the march yesterday, fell in love with a woman and forced her to abduct, so he had these fifty-one concubines.

"The Governor General will definitely flee in panic. The last general congratulated the Governor General in advance—" General Morkang, the general of the First Cavalry Corps, raised his glasses from afar.

Zhang Haotian, general of the Third Corps, naturally was unwilling to fall behind, and stood up with a smile: "I heard that there are tens of thousands of rebels, and I will be killed all of them. This is a great achievement. The Governor will be able to be promoted to the earl. The last general will congratulate the Lord."

Yingtan, the general of the Second Cavalry Corps who had lost his troops and lost his generals, also stood up at this moment: "Governor, I am willing to be the vanguard this time! A first-blooded former shame!"

After Yingtan fled back to Jiuyuan City, he sent a large amount of gold, silver and treasures, which made the Governor satisfied. He did not care about his defeat and still allowed him to serve as the commander of the Second Cavalry Corps.

However, Yingtan felt distressed when he thought of the more than ten cars of treasures being sent to the Governor's Mansion.

The generals stood up one by one to flatter the governor Nagaro. Nagaro refused to refuse, his face turned red with excitement, as if what the generals said had really come true.

Just as the Governor and the generals were having a happy drink, a middle-aged man in a long gown opened the military tent and walked in with a calm face.

The cold wind outside poured into the camp, causing the officer at the door to curse: "Who is so short..." But when he looked up and saw the middle-aged man in Shilong's long shirt, he swallowed the swear words into his stomach, and his face turned red.

After the middle-aged man in long gown walked into the camp, the originally warm atmosphere suddenly became cold, and he had some fear of the middle-aged man in his eyes.

"It turns out that it is the chief of staff, come and sit down." Governor Nagaro took a sip of wine and greeted, "Come on, let's fill the chief of staff with the wine."

The middle-aged man with long shirt was named Li Yunshan. He was the chief of staff of the Governor's Office of Jiuyuan Province, and his status was second only to that of the Governor Nagaro.

Li Yunshan did not go to pick up the drinks sent by his servants, but still looked calm and bowed to Governor Nagaro: "Governor, the iron mine area in the Black Mountains is still in the hands of the rebels. As far as I know, the rebels are strong, I think it is too early for us to celebrate the achievements. I suggest sending scouts to investigate the situation immediately instead of drinking and having fun here."

Li Yunshan's tone of questioning made the Governor Nagaro feel a little unhappy, and he said, "Mr. Li, the wind and snow are very strong now. When the wind and snow stop, send a scout. The rebels can't escape. Come on, sit down and drink."

"Governor General, what if the rebels come here, it will be too late-" Li Yunshan did not sit down and still refused to give in.

Governor Nagaro placed the wine glass heavily on the table, his face darkened, obviously very dissatisfied with Li Yunshan.

"Mr. Li, the Governor said that when the wind and snow stop, we will send scouts out. This is to be sympathetic to the soldiers. You might as well invite us back. We generals don't need you to teach us how to fight!" Morkang, general of the First Corps, stood up dissatisfiedly and said.

General Zhang Haotian of the Third Corps also spoke sarcastically: "Is it possible that Lord Li will disobey the orders of the Governor?!"

Regardless of the generals' dissatisfaction, Li Yunshan approached the governor and said earnestly: "Governor, the rebels are strong, and the destruction of the Second Corps is a good proof. We should be careful-"

"Li Yunshan, don't be shameless! What kind of thing are you? Showing your power here!" Hearing Li Yunshan talk about his pain, the general of the Second Corps, Yingtan, stood up angrily.

"Yingtan, is it still reasonable for your Second Corps to be defeated? Believe it or not, I will report to Wang Jing and remove you from your position-" Li Yunshan's face turned pale and he turned back.

Yingtan sneered: "It's OK to remove my position! Then let me see if you withdraw like this!" As he said that, Yingtan was already kicked out with anger. Li Yunshan, a literati, cried out in pain and rolled on the ground.

"Bao!" Yingtan, who was unyielding, rode on Li Yunshan's body with a few big-eared shaves, and several red fingerprints suddenly appeared on Li Yunshan's face.

"Okay, good fight." The generals applauded if they were drunk or something.

As the chief of staff of Jiuyuan Province, Li Yunshan often couldn't get along with the generals. The generals had long been dissatisfied with him. Seeing him being beaten up, he felt extremely happy.

Governor Nagaro took a sip of wine, a hint of pleasure flashed in his eyes, and he slowly stood up and spoke: "General Yingtan, stop me."

Governor Nagaro stepped forward and helped Li Yunshan, who was already bruised and swollen, pretending to be angry and said, "General Yingtan, you are so impulsive, how can you beat the Chief of Staff? Come and apologize!"

Yingtan knew that the Governor was favoring him and found a way out for him. He said lukewarmly: "Mr. Li, I am reckless, I apologize to you."

Seeing Yingtan's arrogant look, he was not like an apology, but he looked completely like he was: "You have the ability to hit me!" Li Yunshan was so angry that he trembled all over.

"Yunshan, you said you are a literati and just take care of your supplies, money and food. Why always cause trouble for the generals? Do you think it is..." Governor Nagala said earnestly.

Li Yunshan: "Governor General, as the chief of staff..."

"Don't say it, Yunshan, go back to Jiuyuan City to recuperate, you should not participate this time." Governor Nagaro interrupted Li Yunshan's words.

Li Yunshan wanted to say something, but seeing the cold eyes of the generals around him and the impatientness of the governor Nagaro, he waved his sleeves and turned around and left the camp.

As an aide to the Governor's Office, Li Yunshan was very talented. Under the authorization of the Governor, he became the second person in Jiuyuan Province and helped Nagala manage the entire Jiuyuan Province in an orderly manner, becoming the strongest among the more than ten northern provinces.

Li Yunshan offended many people. These people said bad things about Li Yunshan in front of the governor, which made the governor Nagaro gradually become dissatisfied with Li Yunshan. However, Li Yunshan thought he had received the support of the governor and issued orders as before. After a while, Li Yunshan had lost the trust of the governor and began to alienate, but Li Yunshan was still unconscious and did not know where he was wrong.

"Come on, keep drinking, don't let him affect our interest-" Governor Nagaro raised his glass again.

The atmosphere in the entire military tent became warmer again, and I raised my glass and pushed it, which was very lively.

Hearing the laughter and joy coming from the military tent, Li Yunshan looked at the snow all over the sky, feeling cold and disheartened. (To be continued)
