After returning to the team, Xiao Xiao looked at him meaningfully and said, "You are really worth mentioning."
He Ran said proudly: "That's who I am, a magical military advisor with both talent and appearance, both civil and military skills..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Xiao whipped down his whip and rushed out in the wind. He Ran was caught off guard and almost fell down, leaning left and right in a state of embarrassment.
Xiao Xiao chuckled and said: "What a man of both civil and military skills. Be careful not to fall."
Everyone in Xiaoling and Yunye couldn't stop laughing. Mingqin Chaduo didn't know what they were going to do. Seeing that He Ran had controlled Ta Feng, he felt relieved and asked the female interpreter in a low voice. After hearing the details, he couldn't help but laugh.
Dongfang Ao's camp was stationed seventy miles northwest of Gqiong City. Wang Jin had also returned to his headquarters at this time and was stationed fifty miles southwest of Gqiong City. The two armies responded to each other on the left and right.
When they arrived at the Dongfang Ao camp, news had already been received. Thousands of soldiers in bright uniforms lined up to greet them. The shouts resounded through the sky, coupled with the rumbling drums of war, making Mingqin Chaduo's heart tremble. She knew it was
His own army could not help but be frightened by this formation.
When she raised her eyes to look, she saw Xiao Xiao, who was dressed in a lavender outfit, holding her head high and accepting the worship of more than ten thousand strong soldiers. The arrogance she inadvertently showed made her look as noble as the God of War and a fairy. At this moment, she
After truly seeing Zhan Feng's style, look at He Ran again, wearing a blue shirt and a light crown, with a faint flashy smile still on his face. His calmness and calmness are better than taking a leisurely stroll in the courtyard. Although his demeanor is no different from ordinary, but in this ten thousand people.
Jun's appearance made her have a very different feeling before. She couldn't explain what made her feel that he was different from usual, but she unconsciously felt afraid. At this time, she would never dare to follow him.
He spoke without even daring to look directly at her, as if there was something invisible pressing on her head, forcing her to lower her head involuntarily.
"They are all so young yet so powerful." A maid beside her sighed softly with a look of reverence in her eyes.
"I just now believe that he is the magical military advisor. I really didn't believe it when I saw him yesterday. He is really... I don't know how to explain it. The people of the Central Plains are different from us. Our generals are all powerful and majestic.
Murderous." Another maid replied in a low voice.
A maid previously said: "You see their soldiers are also very brave, no wonder they can defeat us."
The third maid looked at Xiao Xiao and He Ran and whispered: "But these two leaders..., Wang Jia looks more powerful, but the magical military advisor is..., you said he is so young and so kind,
Can these ruthless soldiers really be convinced and listen to his words?"
"Of course you have to listen to him. The military advisor is a very important official. If you don't listen to him, you will be beheaded."
"That's not necessarily true. No matter how powerful the official is, he can't do anything if his subordinates are disobedient. Is it possible that he will kill all the disobedient people? I know a general who lost his official position because he couldn't obey the crowd. I won't lie to you."
"How can this be like this? Disobedience in the army is a serious crime. Even if you kill someone, it will be in vain. It is the same everywhere. Who dares to be disobedient?"
"What I said is true. If you still don't believe it, I forgot the general's name. I..."
Mingqin Chaduo didn't want to care about them. After all, they just came yesterday, but she took the initiative to accompany them this time. She had to be more cautious. Hearing their voices getting louder and louder, she had to turn around and make a silent gesture. The four of them
The maid quickly shut her mouth.
After reviewing the army, Xiao Xiao entered the Chinese army tent surrounded by the generals. He Ran came back and said to Mingqin Chaduo: "Follow me."
When he came to a military tent, he said cheerfully: "Stay here."
Mingqin Chaduo asked in Chinese dialect: "Where are you?"
He Ran guessed what she meant, thinking that she was asking where he lived, so he pointed outward with his hand and said: "Not far." He wanted to tell her that he was going to discuss something and would come back later, but he scratched his head.
I couldn't think of what to say, so I had to say the second half: "I'll be back in a minute."
Mingqin Chaduo blinked her bright eyes and seemed to understand, and nodded to him. She wanted to say something but didn't know how. She frowned and thought for a while before shaking her head at him. This scene made the two of them look at each other and smile.
Arriving at the Chinese army's tent, the generals were respectfully reporting military affairs to Xiao Xiao.
He Ran heard that it was nothing important, so he interrupted: "I was worried that you would be frozen in the cold weather. I didn't want such a big space to be so warm with just a few fire pots. This tent is built like a house.
, it’s really good.”
Dongfang Ao reported back: "This is the craftsman sent by King Fan to help us build it."
"Tell me how it was built." He Ran asked with great interest.
When the generals saw that the military advisor had turned the topic into a casual conversation, they all became relaxed. Dongfang Ao explained, "King Fan is really good to us. The military tents are all made of wood frames, with a layer of cowhide or sheepskin on the inside and outside." As he said this,
He walked to the tent wall and knocked the cowhide stretched on it with his hands, "The hairy side is facing inward, and thatch is stuffed in the middle. This kind of thatch has been soaked in medicinal water, which can not only keep warm but also repel and kill insects."
.
He Ran raised his nose and said, "No wonder you smelled a weird smell as soon as you came in. Is it the smell of this potion?"
"Exactly." Dongfang Ao continued: "Put wooden wedges on the frame. After laying the cowhide, lay a thick layer of thatch and tie it tightly with ropes through the wooden wedges. It's done.
"
The treasurer interjected: "The cost of cowhide and sheepskin is huge, which makes us feel sad."
He Ran smiled and said: "They have plenty of these things. I think what they are worried about is the wood. They were all obtained from all the way. Didn't you see that the fire in Qizhali Mountain burned King Fan to the point of feeling distressed?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Dongfang Ao stopped laughing and said with a sad face: "This kind of house is warm, but it can catch fire easily. The wind in the grassland is strong, let alone the enemy's fire attack. Even if the soldiers don't pay attention, if there is an occasional fire, the whole camp may be burned down."
disaster."
He Ran pondered for a moment and said: "I'll teach you a trick. It's cloudy now and there should be snow. When the snow accumulates thickly on the roof, sprinkle it with water. This will be like wearing an ice armor on each tent.
This layer of ice armor can protect against wind, warmth and fire. It’s extremely cold here and I’m afraid this layer of ice armor won’t melt until spring, so there’s no need to worry.”
Dongfang Ao said happily: "The military advisor is really wise and resourceful. I have been worried these days and the military advisor has found a solution in the blink of an eye. This worry of mine is gone."
He Ran smiled and said: "You have always lived in a warm area, and there is rarely ice and snow in winter. Naturally, you would not have thought of this method. In fact, I also learned this from others. Last time I went to Shuo State, the poor people there could not afford to build bricks and tiles.
This is how the house is protected from cold and fire."
The military advisor's frankness impressed all the generals, and even Xiao Xiao couldn't help but give him a look of appreciation.
After Yan laughed for a while, He Ran ordered all the generals to retreat, leaving only Dongfang Ao to talk secretly.
