Chapter 55 Caramel

"Seriously?" Xie Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"Seriously!" The spy nodded.

What he risked his life and death to find out must be more real than real gold.

Xie Yuanxiao: "If that's the case, then we'll ask the commander-in-chief to lead his army and attack from the southern border of Liangzhou."

"Why attack from the south? The western border is far away, we can attack directly from there." Huo Qubing was puzzled.

"Although King Langya likes beauty, he also made great contributions when he helped the late emperor found the country. But because of this, he is extremely arrogant. If we attack from the south, he must think that we are testing Liangzhou's troop deployment.

I think we will only try it briefly before withdrawing our troops, so we won’t pay too much attention to it.”

Cui Heng shook his feather fan slowly and said with a smile,

"If we attack from Western Xinjiang, King Langya will think that we know his troop deployment, and will mobilize everyone to confront us and ask for reinforcements. I don't know whether Xie Xiaolangjun or Cui Mou guessed, but Xiaolang's wish was fulfilled.

?”

"The one who knows me is Cui Sanlang." Xie Yuan smiled.

Cui Sanlang is known as the little Zhuge of the time, and he is indeed well-deserved.

Such a young man deserves this name.

Huo Qubing suddenly realized.

My lord, this is a psychological warfare.

He bet that King Langya was so arrogant that when they attacked the southern border, which was guarded by infantry and archers, he would only leave after a brief trial, so he didn't pay much attention.

And they were able to take advantage of this time to attack Liangzhou City in one fell swoop and directly capture King Langya.

Wonderful.

After listening to what Xie Yuan and Cui Heng said, Dudu Huo laughed loudly and said frankly that life is scary.

He looked at Xie Yuan and praised him more and more.

Xie Yuan is Qi Jing's nephew, and he has the blood of the Qi family - all the people in the Qi family are extremely smart, and now it turns out that it is just like the rumors.

After discussing the strategy, Governor Huo decided to let Huo Qubing, who was clamoring for war and military exploits, go have some training.

So he was still appointed as the charge general and led the army to launch the first attack on Liangzhou.

The day before the attack, Huo Qubing was so nervous that he couldn't sleep. He lingered in front of Xie Yuan's camp, waiting for someone to come out to relieve himself, saying that he wanted to drink with him in front of the battle to strengthen his courage.

This was the second time that Huo Qubing led an army in a serious manner. At that time, the boy was only sixteen years old. He was the same age as the champion in history who went to conquer the Xiongnu. It was natural to be nervous.

Xie Yuanxiao, but he was not allowed to drink.

"If something goes wrong, the governor will make you eat the military stick again." Xie Yuan pointed to Governor Huo's tent.

Huo Qubing trembled and curled his lips: "If you don't drink wine, you won't drink wine. My lord, you're just trying to scare me with my father."

After he finished speaking, Xie Yuan took out an oil paper bag from his sleeve and handed it over.

Huo Qubing opened it curiously and his eyes lit up: "Baitang!"

Then he remembered something and pushed the oil paper bag over with red ears.

"My father said that a man should not eat snacks from young girls, but should drink wine and eat meat." The young man turned his head away.

"No?" Xie Yuan raised his eyebrows.

"No, my lord, take it and distribute it to the generals in the army. There are many who are three or four years younger than me."

"Seriously?"

"……don't want."

"Okay, then I'll give it to the young soldiers as a matter of injustice." Xie Yuan nodded, took the oil paper bag, and prepared to turn around and leave.

But Huo Qubing suddenly turned his head and said hurriedly: "My lord, wait a minute!"

Xie Yuan stopped and raised his eyebrows.

With red ears, the young man reached out and grabbed a piece of caramel. He glanced at Dudu Huo's tent guiltily and saw that no one came out, so he quickly stuffed the caramel into his mouth.

The sweet taste filled the boy's taste buds, making his eyes brighten.

The caramel quickly turned into watery eyes, and Huo Qubing pinched his fingers, glanced at the caramel in the oil paper bag with unfulfilled interest, turned his face away, and whispered -

"My lord, give it to the young soldiers. Tomorrow they will go on an expedition with me, and I don't know if they can return home and have a bite of the Guandong candy at home."

Xie Yuan nodded and stuffed another large piece of candy into the boy's hand.

"Eat, the governor can't see it." Xie Yuan patted Huo Qubing's shoulder and walked towards the group of young soldiers who were patrolling at night.

These are all from military families, and when they reach the age of thirteen, they have to go to the battlefield to fight.

What was he doing when he was thirteen years old in his previous life?

Go to an Internet cafe and play games? Take a nap at the back of the classroom? Or chase Dragon Ball Junior Two to talk about Super Saiyan transformation?

Xie Yuan thought in a daze as he distributed the candies to the teenagers.

Hmm, I can't remember.

During that time, it was as far away as a dream.

Hearing the thanks from the soldiers, Xie Yuan came back to his senses and saw the simple and honest smiles on their faces, and he also smiled.

Which child of this age doesn't love this sweet candy?

At dawn the next day, when he quietly dodged the young man eating caramel and got on his horse, he seemed like a different person, turning back into the young general in bright clothes and angry horse.

The shimmer brought by the white fish belly shines on the mane of the jade lion that illuminates the night, and the young man on horseback has firm eyebrows and eyes.

He raised his red tassel spear with his backhand, and his cloak fluttered in the wind.

"Go to war!"

The young man gave the order and the army set off in unison.

In the faint morning light, a long horn sounded from nowhere, as if to see off these young men who were about to embark on the battlefield.

Governor Huo looked at the retreating figure, worry slowly emerging in his eyes.

While he was worried, a sense of pride emerged in his heart.

Look, this is his Huo family’s son!
