The frost fell in the sixth year of Dalong Ruian.
Snowflakes of moderate size have begun to fall in the northern region of Dalong, all the state capitals of Jin Kingdom, and the eastern part of the grassland.
Wu Guogong Wan Buhai's Northern Expedition has also come to an end.
It took two years for the Hetao Heshuo Grassland to be recovered at the cost of more than 65,000 casualties, 42,000 serious injuries, and 90,000 minor injuries.
Marshal's tent in the Northern Expedition camp.
"Report, 130 scouts have been investigating in batches, but still no trace of General Wan Shoujiang."
"The battlefield has been cleared and the army can withdraw and station at any time!"
Wan Buhai took a breath of hot air to warm his palms, and waved to the first scout with a complex expression: "Continue the investigation, I want to see people in life, and I want to see corpses in death!"
"Got the order!"
"Instruct the three armies to retreat one after another until they are stationed in the camp and wait for food and fodder."
"Got the order!"
Cai Jun, the Rongwei Hou, looked worriedly at Wan Buhai, who was pretending to be calm, and sighed: "Old Commander, the people who defend the border have their own destiny. The Turks will flee if they can't defeat them. The battle line is too wide. The actions of the defender
The flag bearer is at the forefront, guiding the army, and maybe he is still chasing a remnant of the enemy who managed to escape!"
"Don't worry, Commander, Shouxiang will be back."
"Yes, Marshal, the Shoujiang brothers are very good at martial arts. They are also considered seventh-level masters in the martial arts world. They are enough to protect themselves. Marshal, don't worry!"
"That's right, in terms of boxing and kicking skills, we old guys may not be the opponents of the little brother who guards the border. Don't worry, Commander."
Zhonglang General Wu Maoyun and Zhongwu General Kong Desi were also on the side to comfort Wan Buhai.
However, except for Rongwei Hou Cai Jun, no one knew that Wan Shoujiang was Wan Buhai's youngest son.
They all thought that the commander-in-chief loved his soldiers as much as his sons, so they were worried about Wan Shouxiang who still had not been able to unite his troops.
On the other hand, Hu Yanyu and Yan Yu, who were also wearing military uniforms and were sitting next to the tent, seemed to understand something.
Ten thousand steps across the sea, ten thousand guarding the frontier.
This shows that the relationship between the two of them is extraordinary.
Among the 100,000 Huyan Royal Court reinforcements, 50,000 soldiers and horses were under Yan Yu's command. Naturally, Yan Yu "accompanied her husband" and went out to support Wan Buhai in his conquest of the Shibi Si Royal Court.
Looking at the lonely and old face of Wanbuhai, Yanyu gently pulled Huyanyu's one arm and whispered to Huyanyu softly.
"Brothers fighting tigers, father and son go into battle. Brother, do you understand now why the Han people can always stand firm?"
Hu Yanyu glanced at Wan Buhai silently: "Wan Buhai can really bear to let his own son serve as the flag bearer and charge at the forefront of the hail of swords, guns and arrows."
"It is not uncommon in Dalong for a wife to send her husband, a mother to send her son, and father and son to go to the battlefield together."
"The Han people have a terrifying obsession with territory."
"Compared with the Turks, the Jin Kingdom had the concept of retreating if it couldn't defeat it, and at worst it would come back. The Han people's ideas are completely different from ours."
“No matter how big the country is, every inch of land must be fought over; no matter how small the country is, no inch of land must be given up.”
"I would rather live in peace and quiet without giving up any territory."
"It is precisely because of this obsession with territorial terror that the Jin Kingdom and the Turks repeatedly invaded the border but were never able to cross the natural chasm."
"You once said that you should let the Turks learn from the Jin Kingdom, conquer the territory and rule the Han Dynasty with the Han Dynasty, but my little sister told you that if you can't understand the true thoughts of the Han people, you will never be able to conquer the dragon."
"Even if they dominate the world with force and break through the gates of Dalong, they can't break their hearts."
"If you want to govern the world of the Great Dragon Dynasty, you must find a way to integrate into the Han people, or even make yourself a Han person. This is not a foundation that can be completed in one generation!"
"It must take several generations of hard work to be indistinguishable from the Han people, otherwise the bloody spirit in them will be worn away."
"The human heart cannot be broken by swords, guns and arrows."
Hu Yanyu silently looked at Yan Yu, who had a calm expression, and nodded thoughtfully.
Fortunately, it was Yan Yu who was whispering to Hu Yanyu. If Young Master Liu heard what Yan Yu said and would rather turn against Hu Yanyu, an old friend from the past, he would have to kill Yan Yu on the spot.
Women are scary, really scary.
No wonder the Queen once told Young Master Liu that her younger sister Yan Yu was as talented as herself in planning the country.
This statement is true.
Wan Buhai sat on the chair blankly, staring blankly at the military flag in front of him.
The army on the battlefield was overcrowded, and once a battle broke out, the marshal's orders could not be fully and effectively implemented by just a few words from the orderlies.
The army's attack depends entirely on the military flag. Once the military flag falls, the army's morale will naturally be unstable and it will be in a hurry. If the army of more than 100,000 people becomes chaotic, the consequences can be imagined.
A lot of people can be trampled to death if they step on them.
Therefore, all movements of the army depend on the fingerprints of the military flag. Wherever the military flag goes, it is the direction of the army's attack.
"Guarding the frontier, you know the importance of the military flag. I won't say more. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, and arrows are raining like rain, we must move forward without hesitation."
"There are only generals today. If you don't want to be the flag bearer, I won't blame you. You have to think clearly. Once you hold the flagpole, there is no way back."
"The last general will defend the territory and fight to the death to regain the lost territory!"
"Okay, take the flag!"
"The three armies are ordered to march forward and charge wherever the flag goes."
"God bless my son for his safe return! God bless my son for his safe return!"
"Commander, it's snowing. Your health is important. Go and rest for a while. Don't let your old illness relapse. You are the backbone of the three armies!"
"Okay, there's news from Shoujiang. You must wake me up in time!"
"You will get it in the end"
"Report to the commander-in-chief that the body of General Wan Shouxiang has been found!"
Wan Buhai, who had just stood up, stared blankly at the scout who was kneeling on one knee with a sad expression.
"puff"
"Old handsome!"
"Commander!"
"Commander!"
""
Wan Buhai spat out a mouthful of blood and sat down on a chair. All the generals gathered around him and looked at Wan Buhai in panic, his face turned yellow and white.
Hu Yanyu and the two who were chatting hurriedly walked up.
There were blood stains on the corners of Wan Buhai's beard, and his old eyes looked sadly at the ceiling of the tent: "My son, guard the territory!"
Everyone except Cai Jun looked at Wan Buhai blankly. Wan Shoujiang turned out to be the commander's son.
At this moment, everyone realized that it was no coincidence that Wan Buhai and Wan Shoujiang had the same surname, but that they were father and son.
How much determination it takes to let your biological son serve as the flag bearer.
"Kong Desi, you guys, hurry up and call the military doctors, hurry up!"
Cai Jun supported Wan Buhai and roared at several generals.
"Got the order!"
None of them paid attention to Cai Jun's tone and hurriedly ran outside the tent to summon the military doctor.
Wan Buhai looked at Cai Jun with trembling lips: "Help me get up and go see the general's body."
"Commander, you need to take a good rest now."
Wan Buhai shook his head with difficulty: "This is the leader, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist for long!"
"Old handsome!"
"Please listen to the order and help me get up!"
Cai Jun nodded fiercely and waved to Jiang Lei and others: "Hel the commander up!"
The few people had no choice but to support Wan Buhai and walk towards the outside of the tent.
To be continued...
