Vol V Chapter 32
In the private room of the Immortals Gathering Restaurant.
At the window.
Li Qingxuan watched as Ning Mo rode the White Dragon Warhorse and led the Black Knights from the other end of the street. Then, she watched as Ning Mo and his personal guards sped off into the distance. Her eyes were like water, and when Ning Mo disappeared at the end of the street, she didn't look away for a long time.
"Miss, it's time to return to your senses!"
The servant girl looked at her young miss helplessly."
"Lord Marquis has already left the city!"
He came back to his senses.
Li Qingxuan turned to her maid and asked,"
"Pan 'er, do you think he will encounter danger on this expedition? "I heard from my father that the Tartars have an army of four hundred thousand, but he only brought one hundred thousand this time!”
Hearing Li Qingxuan's words, he said,
The maid Pan 'er looked helpless.
He said,"
"Miss, I'm just a weak, pitiful, and helpless little servant girl. How could I know such a thing? Please spare me! You've asked me so many times in the past three days!”
He pursed his lips.
Li Qingxuan looked worried."
"I hope the heavens will bless him with a safe return!”
Seeing Li Qingxuan like this, Pan 'er said,
He couldn't help but smile.
"Young miss, you can't do this. A man like Marquis isn't as idle as the other sons of the various manors. Every day, if it isn't this kind of poetry gathering, it's that kind of small gathering!”
"Lord Marquis is very busy!"
"If young miss is really interested in Lord Marquis, if you continue like this, it is very likely that you will be separated from Lord Marquis by fate. In the end, you can only watch Lord Marquis marry another woman.”
He sneakily approached Li Qingxuan, who was once again in a daze.
Pan 'er whispered like a demon,"
"Young Lady…Lord Marquis is getting married, and the bride isn't you. Moreover, when the time comes, Old Master will still have to follow the bride!”
Swoosh--
When Li Qingxuan heard Pan 'er's devilish words, she instantly imagined the scene in her mind. Then, her expression gradually became firm and her gaze became extremely serious!
He turned to look at Pan 'er.
He said,"
"Pan 'er, do you think it would be a little rude for me to visit the Old Madam of the High Duke's Public House?”
He shook his head.
Pan 'er said seriously,
"It won't!"
He received an answer that seemed to cheer him on.
Li Qingxuan clenched her fists.
"Then…find an opportunity to pay a visit?”
……
In the vast world, snow was falling.
An army of 60,000 soldiers was advancing toward the Northern Territory, braving the wind and snow.
It was freezing cold.
The further north they went, the colder the weather became, and the deeper the snow accumulated!
"Phew-"
Riding on the White Dragon Warhorse, Ning Mo looked at the army that was slowly advancing. He let out a long breath and turned into a cloud of white mist.
"This can't go on!"
Looking at the speed of the army, Ning Mo said,"
"With such a marching speed, we won't make it in time! We have to speed up!"
Hearing Ning Mo's words.
Apart from Gao Shun, Chen Zhong, Shen Zhong, and the other generals who were completely loyal to Ning Mo, there were also other generals who followed him. They were the commanders of the 40,000 elite soldiers who had been transferred from the east army.
At this moment,
Hearing Ning Mo's words, the generals of the East Army looked at each other.
One of the generals stepped forward and said,"
"Commander-in-chief, it's not that we don't want to be fast! The snow was too deep, and the army's supplies were stuck in the snow. They could not move at all!”
Hearing this.
Ning Mo's expression did not change."
"Pass down my order. The army will stop advancing and rest on the spot. Have all the craftsmen in the army come to see me! Bring me a brush and ink. I want to change the carriage that is used to transport the supplies. Quickly pass down the order!”
Carriages and oxcarts were not suitable in the snow, but if they used sleds, they could go faster.
The only rations and supplies could also be transported faster!
Hearing Ning Mo's words.
Although the generals of the east army were very confused, Gao Shun and the others were 100% obedient to Ning Mo's orders.
Very quickly.
The army stopped advancing and set up a cordon around them.
At the same time, with Ning Mo's concept sketch, he gathered all the craftsmen in the army. In just half an hour, he was able to transform a carriage into a simple sleigh. It wasn't difficult at all.
After all, the wheels were only replaced with smooth planks with arcs!
The experiment was indeed reliable and feasible.
Ning Mo waved his hand."
"The entire army will assist the craftsmen in modifying the wagons. After modifying the blueprints of the snowmobiles, send them back to the Imperial Court. Hurry up, time waits for no one!"
At Ning Mo's request,
The army rested for less than four hours before they set off again, moving north at a much faster speed than before.
……
Half a month later.
Ning Mo brought another 40,000 men, making the army 108,000 strong. They stepped onto the snow-covered grassland of the north.
In the tent.
Sitting in the commander's seat,
Ning Mo looked at the reports in his hands.
It came from a scout.
It was from the border army.
And from-
Information on bad people!
"The diplomatic mission has already begun."
He sat down in his seat and said,
Ning Mo muttered in his heart,"
"We need to obtain results as soon as possible. At the very least, we need Great Chu's Black Cavalry to go out and show off! But…this time, the four hundred thousand Turkic soldiers would only split up in rare circumstances!”
It was obvious.
This was because they were scared of Ning Mo's previous battle!
Very quickly.
Ning Mo had already made his decision.
He immediately ordered,
"Gao Shun!"
Whoosh--
Hearing the order.
Gao Shun immediately stood up and knelt before Ning Mo."
"I'm here!"
He looked at Gao Shun.
Ning Mo said,"
"I order you to lead the Breaking Ranks. Each of you will ride three horses and carry seven days of rations. You must constantly harass the rear of the Tartar army. Keep in touch!"
Hearing this.
Gao Shun immediately accepted the order."
"Here!"
Gao Shun was arranged.
Ning Mo continued,"
"Chen Zhong, you will lead the first and second battalions of the Great Chu Black Cavalry. Each of you will ride three cavalrymen and carry seven days 'worth of rations.”
“……”
"Li Liang, you will lead the 3rd Battalion of Great Chu's Black Cavalry and the 15,000 Mo Saber Infantry to cut off the supply line of the Tartar army.”
“……”
After a series of orders were issued.
Ning Mo stood up."
"The rest of you, follow me to the Tartar army camp for thirty li!”
This battle…
Even though Ning Mo wanted to obtain the greatest amount of battle merits, the more important task was to give the envoy led by the Minister of Rites some confidence. This meant that Ning Mo's main force could not hide!
He had to reveal his existence.
Even so,
Even Ning Mo himself had to show up!
The first battle-
If there were no accidents, it would begin soon.
Very quickly.
The 100,000 strong army that had just entered the plains…
The central army marched forward for nearly thirty miles and set up camp only forty miles away from the Tartar army. Like a long sword, they formed a horn with the border city and pointed at the Tartar camp!
During the process of moving-
Gao Shun left with the three thousand Breaking Ranks.
Shen Zhong led 10,000 Great Chu Black Cavalry away from the main army.
Li Liang led 5,000 Great Chu Black Cavalry and 10,000 Mo Saber Infantry to cut off the supply line between the border city and the Tartar army camp.
……
Border Town.
Luo Lang and the Minister of Rites, who had just finished their first negotiation with the Tartars, left on bad terms.
At this moment,
They had already received news that Ning Mo's army was approaching!
In a room on the city wall.
Luo Langping burned the intelligence,
He looked at the Minister of Rites who was also here.
"Minister Xu, we can only wait for Marquis Wu 'an to lead the army and obtain a certain amount of battle merits. Only then will your envoys have more confidence in their negotiations! However, if the Tartars fought with their backs to the wall, it might be difficult for the Wuan Marquis 'troops!”
He frowned.
The Minister of Rites was wearing a thick coat of fur.
Looking at the snow-covered city outside, he said,"
"May the heavens bless Marquis Wu An…Although this brat's mouth is a little vicious, he is indeed a rare talent. In time…he will definitely become the pillar of our dynasty and the pillar of our country!”
Luo Langping smiled.
He said,"
"This marshal heard that Minister Xu and Marquis Wu 'an had an argument in the Imperial Court?”
He nodded.
The Minister of Rites said,"
"It was a little unpleasant! But it was just a political disagreement. This kid was hot-blooded. Sometimes, he didn't consider things thoroughly. Therefore, his political talent still needed to be polished!”
Hearing this.
Luo Langping laughed.
"Hahaha…as a general, why do you need any political skills? As long as they knew how to lead troops to war, it would be fine! Minister Xu is thinking too much."
Hearing this.
The Minister of Rites glared at him.
"What do you know? If everyone is as you think, then aren't all generals boorish? Foolish!"
Hearing the Minister of Rites 'words.
Luo Langping's mouth twitched.
To be able to be a minister, one must be a capable person. However, as the minister of the Board of Rites, it was also true that he had a bad temper.
He knew what the Minister of Rites was like.
Luo Langping didn't argue with him. In terms of eloquence, generals generally lost to civil officials. After all, they couldn't even say a few words before their words became "Gan Ning's mother,""I'll kill you," and so on.
Then, he started to get physical.
In terms of eloquence-
Civil officials were more awesome!
