Qin Rui said "ha beg" and sneezed loudly, causing his brothers to look at him sideways.
"What? You caught a cold?" The elder man of the Qin family handed Qin Rui a water bag. Qin Rui picked it up and took a sip. Then he looked at his brother with wide eyes. The water bag actually contained wine.
The eldest son of the Qin family made a silent gesture, and Qin Rui nodded tacitly.
Although it was a spring night, the wind still brought a bit of coolness. This sip of wine immediately dissipated a lot of the coolness.
"Where did you catch a cold?" Erlang of the Qin family hammered Qin Rui's shoulder, "This kid is as strong as a calf. Someone must have missed him!"
Qin Rui laughed and rubbed his nose, "That's necessary. It's my princess who misses me!"
"Show some shame!" Sanlang of the Qin family jumped onto a haystack, stretched out his limbs and lay in the soft hay, "How come you, the fifth younger brother and sister, are like gods and are sent home by you?"
"This is what I'm good at!" When Qin Rui thought about what Fu Mingyu said to him before escorting the grain and grass back, Qin Rui couldn't help but grinned to the base of his ears, showing his big white teeth. He also jumped onto the haystack
, lay down next to Sanlang of the Qin family, put one hand on the back of his head, looked at the sky full of stars, and said secretly, "You are not the same, how could you be so virtuous as to marry my third sister-in-law?"
A charming and beautiful princess!"
The stars in the sky are really dazzling. Qin Rui looked at them as if he saw Fu Mingyu's eyes in the deep night sky. No, these stars are not as bright as the light in her eyes. Her eyes
Her eyes were gentle and powerful, the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen.
"Fourth brother is still patrolling the camp, leave some for him!" Qin Rui screwed on the lid of the water bag and returned the water bag to the elder brother. "Brother, if I am injured in the battle tomorrow, you must not tell the county.
host."
As soon as he said this, several brothers fell silent at the same time.
The Mobei Allied Forces have been calling for battle outside the city for several days, and have repelled several offensive battles. They are defending Fengxiaguan. Although everyone knows that there is a disparity in strength between the enemy and ours, the chance of winning if they attack rashly is very small, and defense is the best plan.
Obviously the people in the capital don't feel this way.
It has been more than a month since the Mobei Allied Forces pressed into the territory. The Qin Army has not taken the initiative to fight. The battle reports were sent back to the capital. His Majesty, Emperor Jing Lin of the Da Xie Dynasty, was obviously very dissatisfied with the situation.
Yesterday I received the message from my home eight hundred miles away from the capital. The Ministry of War ordered them to choose a day to attack!
Everyone was a little dumbfounded after receiving this order.
The Mobei Allied Forces claim to have an 800,000-strong army. Although this is a bit of a boast, there are still 600,000 people. The entire Daxie Mobei garrison only adds up to 400,000, of which there are still 100,000 at other passes.
However, Fengxiaguan, where the main force is facing the enemy, only has 300,000 troops. Facing an enemy force twice as large as our own, the best way is to occupy the favorable terrain of Fengxiaguan for defense.
Unless reinforcements from the imperial court arrive, it is obviously unwise to attack rashly.
Today, Marshal Qin called all the generals together for a day-long meeting to discuss the order issued by the Ministry of War. All the generals felt that the people from the Ministry of War were far away in the capital and did not understand the current situation at all. It was sheer nonsense to issue such an order, but
Only Duke Dingguo understood in his heart that such an order was Emperor Jinglin's test of him!
The army is outside. Although some generals say that they do not grant military orders abroad, Duke Dingguo knows how the Dingguo Palace exists in His Majesty's heart. If His Majesty really trusts the Qin family, he will not be in the capital before.
So much has happened.
Now that only his old wife and second daughter-in-law are in the capital, how can that suspicious and petty His Majesty be relieved?
So he had to listen to this military order even if he didn't! Moreover, they submitted detailed offensive and defensive battle reports back to Beijing every day. How could Emperor Jinglin and the Ministry of War not know about the strength gap between their own side and the local area?
Now that we know that the old man who is the Minister of War was once a general who has experienced hundreds of battles, how can he not understand the consequences of attacking rashly now? But under such conditions, such a seemingly inhumane order
Still coming down, it proves that even the Minister of War has stopped speaking for the Qin family. The situation in the DPRK and China is evident!
Although he is not afraid that His Majesty will change his generals in battle, he is afraid that the mountains and rivers where the Qin family has been stationed for generations will be devastated. He is afraid that he will be ashamed of the ancestors of the Qin family, and he is also afraid that he will be ashamed of his wife and children!
If the reason for disobeying military orders is given to His Majesty and the Ministry of War, the Qin family will be in a passive position to a certain extent in the future.
Therefore, he must go out of the city to fight tomorrow, and how to maximize his strength to destroy the enemy and make himself invincible under such a huge disparity in strength is what he must consider with all his heart.
After he dismissed the other generals, he left his sons alone.
What pleased Duke Ding was that his sons were all good at fighting and reasonable.
He explained the key points of tomorrow's battle in detail to his sons. The one he believed in most now was his son. It wasn't that he didn't believe in his old subordinates who had been following him for many years, but the way the court looked like this,
He was afraid that someone around him would be bribed, so he could only give the key to the battle to his son.
The Great Xie Dynasty is about to be stormy, and Duke Ding's Mansion has already been pushed to the forefront!
His Majesty was testing him with such extreme means, so he had no choice but to accept this order... for the sake of Da Xie's border residents, and for the sake of the entire Qin family.
Qin Rui and the others were lying on the haystacks, each with their own thoughts. Everyone knew that tomorrow would be a tough battle!
"You will be responsible for luring the enemy tomorrow, so don't show off!" The elder of the Qin family said softly to his little brother, "Run away if you can. You don't have to come back to cover for us. We will take care of ourselves. You must not be attacked by the enemy.
The army has caught up."
"Brother! That's what you said." Qin Rui laughed, "My horse is the best Pegasus in the entire Mobei! As long as I start running tomorrow, those Mobei soldiers will have to follow me.
The horse's fart is eaten from behind! No, if I really run, they won't even be able to eat the fart!"
"Vulgar!" Erlang of the Qin family couldn't help but laugh and pushed his younger brother, "If the elder brother says it's serious, you can make jokes. In short, you just have to do your part!"
"I know!" Qin Rui nodded, feeling a little sour in his heart.
He is not a fool. His father gave him the task of luring the enemy. It seems that he is very dangerous and will become the target of the army. But in fact, he has Chi Xiao in hand, and the enemy army really cannot catch up with him! So the father and brothers are
