Mu Tianlang, Chinese Army.

Hucha Dongchan asked doubtfully: "This Xirong army is neither attacking nor not attacking. What are you doing here?"

Liu Ce looked at Li Luo and saw that Li Luo was thinking about himself, so he didn't respond. He looked at Dongchan, wrinkled her nose, turned her head, and ignored Li Luo.

Li Luo glanced at the Shahu frontier fortress fifty miles away. Up to this moment, no soldiers had been sent out. Li Luo frowned slightly. Suddenly there was a noise in the camp. Chi Li looked back and saw that Qi Shaobing was out of breath.

He rushed in angrily, and when he saw Li Luo all the way away, he cried: "General, the Xirong thieves attacked the camp behind the camp, and all the military supplies were stolen by them."

Li Luo looked calm, glanced at Qi Shaobing, and asked: "When will the stronghold be robbed?"

"Two moments ago."

Hucha Dongchan snorted coldly: "General Qi runs really fast."

Qi Shaobing felt cold and shrank his neck, lowering his head and not daring to answer. Li Luo then asked: "How many people are there in the Xirong army? Which way did they rob the stronghold?"

Qi Shaobing hurriedly replied: "General, at least there are three to five thousand people who came out from Tunlin Road. When they heard the sound, these bandits had already rushed into the camp. They were too fast and they would not be able to form their formation in the future.

, I beg the general to forgive the young general for his inability to resist the enemy." After saying this, he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed.

Li Luo hummed and said casually that you should get up first. He stopped looking at Qi Shaobing and looked intently in the direction of Tunlin Road. Sure enough, he saw Lin Dong and birds startled.

After a while, a group of cavalry rushed out of the forest and merged into the Xirong army. At this time, black smoke rose from the camp ten miles away from the rear camp. Qi Shao's soldiers trembled and cursed: "These deserve a thousand swords."

The thieves must have burned down our camp."

Li Luo said to himself: "In just two moments, the troops have marched nearly thirty miles, and they have to rob the camp and set fire to it. This Xirong army can really be regarded as coming and going like the wind." After saying that, he turned back and glanced at Liu Ce and Shen Xiangdong, both of whom were stunned.

Seeing the dignity, Li Luo smiled and nodded slightly. Liu Ce and Shen Xiangdong felt inexplicably relieved, and nodded slightly and remained silent.

The formation of the Xirong army changed slightly and slowly retreated to the rear, but with a relaxed and leisurely attitude, as if they were walking in their own back garden.

"Ning Erfeng has learned the lesson. We have a long day to come. I will meet General Hucha and all the heroes and nobles again one day. It is getting late today. General Li has tired of thinking. Let's rest early." After saying this, he laughed for a long time.

The Xirong army retreated to the defense line of the Western Expedition army in front.

Li Luo watched the Xirong army retreat further and further. The dusk mist rose and gradually disappeared. After a while, white smoke was released from the fortress in front. The Xirong army had withdrawn from the Shahu defense line. Although Mu Mu was in the first confrontation,

Tianlang didn't lose many troops, but Xirong took the lead and the morale of the army was quite low.

Chinese army tent.

Li Luo sat on the commander's seat and carefully watched the military information coming from various ministries.

The first battle was unfavorable, and all the generals in the tent were a little downcast. More than 300 Yueqi battalions were killed in the battle, and nearly a thousand were injured. Most of them were killed by the Xirong cavalry during the final withdrawal. However, the Xirong army also left more than 800 soldiers.

Corpse.

Judging from this, it seems that Mu Tianlang has a slight upper hand, but the rear camp's military supplies were robbed, and the Xirong army entered and exited as if there was no one in the middle of nowhere, which greatly increased the momentum of Ning'er Peak. Qi Qi may be considered unsatisfactory.

No one under Shao Bing's command was injured.

After reading the battle report, Li Luo was quite unhappy. He angrily accused Hu Chajing of not obeying the instructions of the Chinese army and had to be beheaded according to the law, so he asked the Chinese army to push out the camp gate and behead him. Liu Ce and Shen Xiangdong quickly tried to persuade him, but the battle had not yet begun.

It was unwise to kill the fierce general first. The rest of the people also begged for mercy for Hucha Jing. Hucha Dongchan was so frightened that she almost burst into tears. Finally, she couldn't bear the generals' persuasion, and Li Luo scolded him with his Ni Qing and Ni Bai staff.

Cha Jing ordered eighty soldiers to serve as a warning and finally settled the matter.

Qi Shao's soldiers were unable to protect the camp, so he took 60 military sticks himself.

After Hucha Jing was punished with a stick, there were quite a few complaints in the army. It was widely spread that Li Luo only talked about military affairs on paper and did not know the actual army. Liu Ce rushed around to suppress the rumors.

Hucha Dongchan couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw his brother suffering, and complained a lot about Li Luo behind his back. Fortunately, Hucha Jing kept comforting him and advised him not to act out of anger. Hucha Dongchan couldn't say anything anymore when he saw his brother acting like this.

What, but it is indispensable to give Li Luo a cold look.

After half a month, Huchajing's injury gradually improved and he was able to ride his horse and train his troops. He felt suffocated in his heart. The drills in Yuehu and Hu's two camps were even more rigorous, and they were about to avenge their humiliation. The officers and soldiers in the camp saw that the general was being humiliated. No matter how harsh the training was,

Not even half dissatisfied.

One day, Li Luo inspected each camp, rode his horse to the creek in the middle of the camp, jumped off the horse and sat on a stone, looking at the gradually frozen water in a trance. When he was in a daze, he was suddenly noticed by someone beside him.

I woke up with the sound of ropes. I turned around and saw a woman in plain clothes standing by the stream holding a push of clothes. She looked at the stream, put down the clothes in her hands, and struggled to pick up the stones beside her to tie the knots on the bank of the stream.

The ice was smashed, but because of my delicate body and weak strength, I couldn't break it even after smashing it several times.

Li Luo stood up and walked closer and asked, "Can you help me?"

The woman made a sound, hurriedly straightened her clothes, stroked the hair on her forehead, and said politely: "Excuse me, General. I want to get some water to wash clothes, but I didn't expect that the ice would be so frozen in just a few days."

It's solid." After saying that, he raised his head and glanced at Li Luo, and said in an embarrassed low voice: "General, can you please help the little girl break the ice."

Li Luo glanced at the woman's slightly red hands. Her skin was white and tender, and she didn't look like she often did such work. He smiled softly and said: "Why do you ask a girl to come here to wash clothes in such a cold weather? Most of them are men.

House's."

The woman's face turned red, and she replied in embarrassment: "It's not what the general guessed, civilian girls are just doing what they can. They can't just stay in the camp and live and eat for free, causing others to look down on them."

"Isn't there always no female dependents in the army? How come you are with the army?"

The woman's eyes darkened when she heard this, she lowered her head and replied: "Back to the general, the civilian girl did not come to the army voluntarily, she came with the prince a few days ago."

The woman was stunned, lowering her head and saying nothing. Li Luo was speechless, shook his head and smiled bitterly. He picked up the big stone next to him and was about to throw it at the ice, when he suddenly rode over and shouted from a distance: "General!"

But it was Ni Qing. Li Luo put down the stone and looked back. When the horse approached, Ni Qing dismounted, knelt down and saluted: "General, Miss Chu is back."

"Oh," Li Luo said with a smile: "I'll go take a look." After saying that, he walked towards the war horse, and Ni Qing hurriedly followed. Li Luo got on the horse and said to Ni Qing: "Ni Qing, please send this girl back.

camp."

The woman now had a look of panic on her face and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The civilian girl didn't know she was the general. Please forgive the civilian girl for her ignorance."

Ni Qing glanced at the woman who was standing by the stream just now, scratched her head and said: "General, this..."

"The fault of King Huai is not your fault." Li Luo said harmoniously, "If any of you are willing to stay, go help the doctors in the camp to make some medicine for wounds, and take care of the wounded soldiers with them.

, there’s no need to do these things. Don’t worry, no one in the camp will hurt your lives.”

The woman was startled and replied repeatedly: "General, civilian girls have never thought of it this way."

Li Luo sighed and said: "You are unwilling to go back just because King Huai dies. Whether it is for the reputation of the royal family or to find excuses for me, there will be someone in the royal city who will secretly kill you. You may not be able to return to the royal city."

I'm going to die. It's just that these things are beyond my reach, and I can't protect you completely. Since you don't want to leave, I will stay in the army for a while, and then I will send you back after this matter is over."
