Chapter 689 Coward

Xiao Huaiyu!

This is a magical name, and it is also a name that is famous all over the world.

This name makes the people of Yan State full of awe and a sense of security, but it makes the people of Wei and Qing State restless and extremely afraid.

It is such a person who, with his own strength, supported the border defense of Yan State and ensured that the people of Yan State were not trampled by foreign enemies. It is also this person who has been standing in the border for more than ten years, making foreign enemies dare not peek at the land of Yan State.

Han Mo's eyes lit up, and at almost the same time, he turned over and dismounted with Cao Yin, and all the members of the mission behind him were dismounted.

Xiao Huaiyu saluted and stood up straight.

His body looks ordinary, not thick, and even a little thin, but his thin body, standing there, gives people a sense of calmness like a mountain.

His skin is dark, his nose is straight, his eyebrows are thick, his eyes are bright and energetic, and he looks energetic.

His face has clear contours, giving people a sense of perseverance but calmness.

This is Xiao Huaiyu!!

This is the God of War!

This is the Tiger of the East!

...

Cao Yin had already come forward to welcome Xiao Huaiyu, and said with a gentle voice: "How can the general come out to welcome him in person? Your military affairs are heavy, so how can I work for you to welcome him in person? Don't be too polite, don't be too polite!"

Xiao Huaiyu had a very respectful face on his firm face and said, "The Marquis and the Mission have been rushing on their way. The camp has been arranged well. The Marquis will rest with you for the time being. It's too late, and I'll welcome you to the Marquis and you tomorrow."

Cao Yin smiled and said, "It's a good general!"

Xiao Huaiyu turned his head, looked at Han Mo beside Cao Yin, and smiled gently, "This is Han Mo's deputy envoy, right? This time, you guard the mission, returned in triumph, worked hard and made great contributions, thank you for your hard work!"

His words were like spring breeze, which made Han Mo feel warm in his heart. He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said, "Han Mo has seen the general!"

Xiao Huaiyu smiled and said, "Let's say nothing more, enter the pass and rest!"

At that moment, Xiao Huaiyu and his generals came to Linyang Pass to the mission. After traveling to the mission for more than ten miles, it was the Linyang Pass station of the Northwest Army. The tent had already been set up for the mission.

Han Mo ordered the captured Wei scouts to secretly hand over to the Northwest Army. Although the Northwest Army was a little surprised, it still happily accepted more than a dozen Wei scouts.

After the group eats food, they enter the camp to rest.

The delegation, including Han Mo, marched forward for several days and was really exhausted. When he returned to his own territory, he felt relieved and slept peacefully.

Han Mo woke up the next day and felt energetic. He rested overnight, but he dispelled all his fatigue.

After leaving the camp, I looked around and saw the continuous northwest military camps, with banners waving and shouting from time to time. It was the Northwest soldiers who were training.

When he arrived at the Hongxiu camp, the dark officials had already washed her. He was sitting on the couch, and the dark officials were drinking porridge for her.

Han Mo went forward, took the porridge bowl, and came to feed it in person. After the dark official went out, Hongxiu asked, "Brother, how long will it take for us to go home? Can we meet grandpa after we get home?"

Han Mo smiled gently and said, "If grandpa is at home, he can naturally see it. But... he has a lot of things to do, and I don't know if he is at home." Seeing Hongxiu showing disappointment, he hurriedly said, "But there are sisters and sisters at home, and they must be looking forward to you going back."

Hongxiu was silent and said a little distressed: "Why don't I remember these things? Why don't I remember that I have sisters?"

Han Mo comforted: "Moduo thinks, have a good rest. When the disease is cured, everything will be remembered."

But Han Mo was really conflicted. He didn't know whether he wanted this girl to remember the dark things she had in the past and return to the West Flower Hall to continue her dark career, or to forget about the past and start another life again under his own arrangement.

He frowned and pondered.

Seeing that Han Mo was not moving, Hongxiu said softly: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Han Mo said "Oh" and came to his senses, laughed and said, "Do you want to see the sea?"

"The sea?" Hongxiu's bright eyes looked at Han Mo with confusion. Obviously, the word "the sea" seemed very strange in her mind.

"There are endless waters, and there are clear water." Han Mo fed Hongxiu and ate a bite of porridge and said softly: "There are big ships on the sea, and there are beautiful birds flying on the sea..."

Hongxiu's eyes lit up and he immediately said, "When will we go?"

Han Mo smiled and said, "When your body recovers, you will definitely see the sea."

After feeding rice porridge, Han Mo told her a short story after she persuaded her to rest, and then she left the tent. The morning air was refreshing and the rising sun was extremely bright.

Han Mo looked into the distance, countless flags were flying in the air, and the continuous military camp weapons were constantly attacking, and he could clearly hear the scolding of many generals.

An imperial guard came over and turned over and dismounted, and reported: "General, the marquis gave him instructions to rest on the border for a day, and set off tomorrow and set off again to return to Beijing!"

"Where is the Marquis now?"

"The general is accompanying the marquis to inspect the military camp." The imperial guard said, "The marquis told me that if the general has a good rest, he can go to the military camp to observe!"

Han Mo naturally would not miss such an opportunity. It is naturally a matter of undesirable to be able to see the training status of the Northwest Army under Xiao Huaiyu.

...

Deep in the northwest military camp, Xiao Huaiyu was still wearing military uniforms and a calm expression. He was bringing more than a dozen subordinates with him to accompany Cao Yin to inspect the camp, and Wu Tianshao, the general of Linyang Pass, was naturally among them.

After riding a horse through several camps, Cao Yin finally sighed: "The general is well-trained, my northwest son is brave and powerful, and if the general is guarding the northwest, my big Yan has no worries!"

Xiao Huaiyu said calmly: "The soldiers can only use their lives to ensure the peace of the border of Dayan. The last general dares not take credit!"

Cao Yin smiled and said, "The general has always been like this. Although he has made outstanding contributions, he has never been willing to admit that he has made contributions." Looking at the rolling northwest military camp, he finally asked, "How many soldiers have been gathered in the Linyang County line now?"

The Northwest Army guarded the entire northern line of Yan State, from the Hanshui Pass in Wu County to the Linyang Pass in Linyang County, a total of 120,000 northwest soldiers were stationed in a thousand miles of border and six passes.

The troops on the front line of the border are not evenly distributed. Linyang County faces Nanyang County, the most important Nanyang County, which is a strategic location, and naturally has more troops stationed. In Linyang Pass, the normal number of troops remains at about 30,000, accounting for one-quarter of the total strength of the Northwest Army. Wu Tianshao, the general of Linyang County, is also the first powerful general under Xiao Huaiyu. Xiao Huaiyu personally promoted it from the army. Among the six generals, power and influence rank first, and it is also the second military figure in the Northwest Army second only to Xiao Huaiyu.

The Northwest Army had to be mobilized, but Yanjing City never asked about it. Almost all the mobilization was in Xiao Huaiyu's hands.

It is precisely because the Northwest Army is in Xiao Huaiyu's hands that the Xiao clan, which occupied not much land, does not have rich resources, can rank first among the Yan family.

Xiao Huaiyu controlled the military power with one hand. Before this, countless people were naturally worried. After all, with such a powerful army, the military power in Xiao Huaiyu's hands was really too terrifying.

However, since Xiao Huaiyu became the General of the Northwest Army, he has been devoted to defending the territory and training the army. In order to reduce domestic pressure, he has reclaimed wasteland and planted grain at the border. He has also had forging sites and animal husbandry camps in the army, and has done his best to be self-sufficient. He has never acted disrespectful to the court at all.

For more than ten years, the entire Yan State admired Xiao Huaiyu's character from the bottom of his heart, whether he loved him or was afraid of him.

The most important thing is that everyone knows that the safety of Yan State is entirely related to Xiao Huaiyu alone. Only this famous general is in charge of the border can the safety of Yan State be protected.

Cao Yin looked at the ups and downs of the military camp at this time, but he also estimated that there were more than 30,000 soldiers stationed in Linyang County.

Xiao Huaiyu heard Cao Yin’s question and replied: “After a few days ago, he has secretly transferred 20,000 people from the eastern front line, and the troops here are about 50,000!”

Cao Yin nodded and said, "The General is wise. Although I, Da Yan, did not participate in this battle of Wei Qing, are not allowed to be on guard against others. We should be prepared early."

"Even if we form an alliance with Qing State, the covenant stipulates that our Northwest Army of Yan State will slightly restrain the Cang Cavalry of Wei State. We still have to do such an alliance." Xiao Huaiyu pondered for a moment before he said slowly.

Wu Tianshao behind him couldn't help but say, "Marty, I'm puzzled. I want to ask the Marquis!"

Cao Yin stopped the horse, looked calm, smiled gently, and asked, "What do General Wu want to ask?"

"The last general wants to ask, why does the imperial court form an alliance with the people of Qing this time?" Wu Tianshao looked solemn: "Why don't they form an alliance with Wei and join forces to attack Qing? Qing seems powerful, but in fact it is vulnerable. If they can join forces with Wei, they will definitely be able to flatten Qing and erase Qing from the map!"

Cao Yin frowned slightly, then smiled and said, "The Lord has his own wise heart. We are ministers, just wait for the saint's order, so don't think too much!"

Wu Tianshao was not willing to give up and said in a deep voice: "Can the officials in Yanjing City be used to living a peaceful life and have no courage? My late emperors of Dayan all had the ideal of unifying the world, so why did they sit by and see such a good opportunity to slip away this time?"

"Shut up!" Xiao Huaiyu's eyes looked fierce, "If you talk nonsense, you will be disrespectful to the Marquis, you will be engaged in military law!"

Wu Tianshao was naturally extremely afraid of Xiao Huaiyu. Although he didn't dare to say anything, the expression in his eyes was obviously very unwilling to accept it.

Cao Yin frowned and looked at the Northwest Army generals behind Xiao Huaiyu. At this moment, he understood that the Northwest Army generals obviously wanted to fight this battle. He was obviously very dissatisfied with the court and Qingguo Alliance, putting this battle aside.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves sounded, and everyone looked back and saw Han Mo coming over, following two imperial guards.

"Coward!" Seeing Han Mo coming by, Wu Tianshao snorted coldly and spitted on the ground. The other generals following Xiao Huaiyu were also senior generals in the Northwest Army, commanders, and the commanders were all among them. When he saw Han Mo coming, he also showed disgust on his face and even more disdainful in his eyes.
