Chapter 70
Ding Mujie, who was standing on the high hill watching the battle, was in agitated mood. The trapped horse pit, the horse-rejecting pole, the long-handled war sickle, the semaphore, and all the strategies and tactics were all made by him, and he should have been confident. However, seeing his tactics working is nowhere near as exciting as seeing Lin Dan rushing in the enemy line.
He stared at her invincible figure for a moment, his heart beating so fiercely that even the blood could not stop boiling. People who have never experienced the previous life can never understand his mood at this moment. It is precisely because of today's battle that Wei was completely beaten to the ground by the Huns, and has since fallen into turmoil and torn apart.
Later, he assisted the nine princes to ascend the throne. Although he was in a high position and power was in power, he still could not change the increasingly unbearable status quo of Wei. Every year, the State of Wei paid a huge amount of annual confessions to the Huns and sent the princess to marry him. The frontier people were often slaughtered by the Huns and did not dare to resist.
The Great Wei, who had come from all nations, has become a lingering beast, and one day he will be completely strangled by the Huns. When Ding Mujie died, Wei Country was still struggling to support him, and he had not yet been destroyed, but he had already foreseen the ending, so he couldn't let go. After rebirth, in addition to marrying Lin Wan and saving the Lin Mansion, he actually has a more ambitious and difficult to achieve, that is, to restore the country's prestige and save the people of Li.
But he also sensibly knew that even if he had lived two lives and foreseen many opportunities, this wish might exhaust his life, but it was just a wish. In the last life, he worked hard and worked hard, and only in exchange for more than ten years of peace in the Great Wei State, he may have to put in more efforts in this life to save the crisis. But he never expected that only this battle, only this person, the dawn that had never been dreamed of before, was slowly blooming in this fiery frontier.
Watching the Xiongnu cavalry fleeing from the big defeat, watching the rapidly advancing Wei ** team, Ding Mujie was already in tears, and his mood was hard to calm down. He turned on his horse, showing the vigor of a young man for the first time, and exclaimed: "Go, let's go back to meet the triumphant colleagues!"
"Yes!" The soldiers who accompanied him to watch the battle also showed ecstatic expressions.
The group hurried back to the camp, just in time to meet the heroes who had come from the horse. The blood stains on their bodies have not yet dried up, their faces are still exhausted, but their eyes are brighter.
"Lin Dan, thank you!" Ding Mujie couldn't restrain his excitement, and immediately rushed towards Lin Dan, then hugged her into his arms and slapped her on the back. His eyes were red, and he wanted to cry loudly, but he abruptly held back. This victory completely reversed Wei's destiny. Not only he wanted to thank Lin Dan, but the people all over the world wanted to thank Lin Dan.
At this moment, she had no idea what miracle she had created, and how she pulled the Li people who were about to fall into dire straits out of the abyss of despair. If so... If he hadn't stopped her in the last life, everything would be different, right?
Every time Ding Mujie thinks about this question, his heart will ache, and the soreness in his eyes becomes more and more intense.
Before he could fully express his emotions, a pair of big hands pulled him away. Li Xian quipped, "Sir, how about giving me a victory embrace? Without your plan, we would not have won so easily today. The army master has made great contributions, and after I return, I must play my father to show you the merits."
Ding Mujie hugged him quickly, and the brothers patted him on the shoulder.
Most of the people in the army are bold and unrestrained, and it's really common to cross shoulders and shoulders. What's more, Lin Dan's martial arts are so powerful and powerful that no one regards her as a woman. Naturally, she wouldn't find it strange to hug a man. Everyone was immersed in the joy of victory and needed to celebrate.
After this battle, the Huns have been extinguished some of their arrogance, and they will definitely not dare to provoke Wei in a short time. Through this battle, the Lin Family Army also figured out the way to deal with the Huns. In the future, they will strengthen training and slowly change their equipment. With General Lin sitting here, one day they will be able to form an army stronger than the Xiongnu cavalry. By then, they will not win by a strange move, but by their real strength, they will completely beat the Huns to the ground!
Victory, especially an overwhelming victory, prompted these soldiers to build up a strong morale and self-confidence. In the past, as long as the Wei ** team heard the horn of the Xiongnu cavalry, they would feel frustrated and afraid to fight, but now they love fighting and are eager to fight.
Of course, this situation was only for the Western Expeditionary Army where Lin Dan was located, and it was still difficult for other armies to escape the shadow of the Xiongnu cavalry. But Ding Mujie believes that as long as the State of Wei is given more time, it will become stronger and the people will be able to live a stable life with the western army guarding the frontier.
But he still underestimated the selfishness and stupidity of Wei's politicians. Before the Western Expeditionary Army completely consolidated the results of this battle and repelled all the remnants of the Huns, the Prince, King Kang, and the Ninth Prince who were far away in the capital were anxious to pick peaches.
Just two months after the celebration banquet, Lin Dan was still busy beating the remnants of the Huns on the grassland and plundering more property. An imperial decree was sent to the barracks, saying that as a woman, she could not join the army and ordered her to retreat immediately. Zhizhi returned to Beijing to plead guilty, and emphatically asked her to explain her act of killing her father.
She took great credit, but failed to get half a commendation. The whole article was full of reprimands. At the end, she only comforted a little, saying that for the sake of the loyalty of the Lin family, she would not be too harsh on her, so she could go back with peace of mind. . As the emperor’s own son, Wang Zhuang was greatly praised, but he did not let him continue to be the coach. Instead, he sent a royal forest army to pick him up and return to Beijing, and ordered him to quickly change defense with King Kang, who is responsible for issuing the imperial decree. .
The merits of the great war were wiped out in this way, on the contrary, the idlers who huddled in the capital were allowed to sit back and enjoy their achievements...
Before Li Xian listened to the imperial decree, he was suffocated. Just about to stand up and argue with King Kang, Lin Dan stretched out a hand and squeezed his shoulder forcefully, without saying anything: "Don't be restless."
Li Xian immediately calmed down and accepted the imperial decree unwillingly. Ding Mujie and other soldiers also suppressed themselves and did not conflict with King Kang.
This time, King Kang took his own confidant to change defense with King Zhuang in the future. Lin Dan’s credit is too great, and his prestige is too high. In just five or six months, he has completely gathered the Western Expeditionary Army and broke out the Great Wei Zhan **. His personality is far-reaching, and it’s true. The heroes in the minds of the common people are legends that only exist in the storybook. In the frontier, the common people only know Lin Dan, they don’t know the emperor, and when they hear that Lin Dan passes through the border, they pay their heads after dozens of miles away. In the army, the soldiers only know Lin Dan and don’t know the emperor. The emperor’s imperial decree is far less than Lin Dan. A single command worked...Such words of heartbreaking were spread back to the capital one after another, stinging the emperor's ears. Naturally, he would not let Lin Dan continue to guard the frontier.
In short, in order to grab the credit, King Kang and others did everything they could to slander Lin Dan, so that she could be pulled off the horse and replaced by her own person. In addition to taking over the Western Expeditionary Army, King Kang's other mission is to negotiate with the Huns and sign a peace treaty as soon as possible to end decades of war. This is another political achievement that can be recorded in the annals of history, and it is the capital to compete for the crown. King Kang was anxious for success, and was afraid that King Zhuang would compete with him for the credit, so he urged them on the road that night.
It was night, Li Xian and Ding Mujie had a close conversation in the camp for half an hour before they decided to set off.
Lin Dan had already sat on the horse, waiting for them quietly, behind him were Lin Qing with red eyes and a black coffin. This time, they want to bring back all Lin Jiaerlang who died for the country, and put them in the land for safety.
"Are you not at all unwilling?" Li Xian asked inaudibly when he approached Lin Dan.
"It is more important to me to bring my departed relatives back home for burial rather than being unwilling and resentful." Lin Dan clamped his horse's belly and said in a clear and neat tone: "Go!"
"Let's go!" Lin Qingchong waved his hands and followed his sister.
Seeing them leaving their backs, Li Xian couldn't recover for a long time, but Ding Mujie sighed: "Lin Dan naturally has a balance in her heart, feeling and reason, power and family, which is more important, she has a clear mind."
Li Xian suddenly laughed and said in an almost gentle voice: "How can I wait for a layman to compare with her! Hurry up and keep up. If you don't leave, the fairy should leave us behind!"
Li Xian seemed to be joking, but the speed of catching up was not slow at all. Ding Mujie hurriedly followed, looking at Lin Dan's slender and tall back, his eyes became extremely dark. He knew that Li Xian was not joking at all, in his heart, even in Ding Mujie's own heart, Lin Dan was an extraordinary existence. She is brave and fearless, but loves and righteous, how much they desire to be close to her, and how much they desire to win her favor, perhaps only God and them know.
However, Lin Dan didn't notice the two people's intentional or unintentional approach and the courtesy. She has always distinguished the priorities, the battle is over, and the old lady is still looking forward to her taking her family back to reunite, so she will not be delayed. As for those intrigues and fights for power, what does it have to do with her?
Lin Dan was eager to hurry, but he didn't expect to encounter a group of dead men to intercept him. Their first goal is King Zhuang Li Xian, and then they are themselves. As a fellow, Lin Dan, no matter how can he watch King Zhuang being killed, naturally he has to take care of him.
Compared to killing the enemy on the battlefield, she seems to be better at fighting. As long as she lifts the broadsword, she will be controlled by a blast of killing. It is difficult to stop. In order to kill herself more happily, she pointed to the suspension bridge behind her and said: "You go first, I'll break it!"
Li Xian and others knew her strength well, and rushed across the suspension bridge to prevent her from being dragged. But Lin Dan always guarded the bridge head, never let the dead men get close to half a point. She smashed her eyes, making these dead men feel terrified. In order to complete the task, she actually started on the coffin that Lin Qing was protecting. Seeing that a coffin was cut off the rope by the dead man and was about to fall down the mountain stream, Lin Dan quickly reached out to fish it, but the coffin was picked up, but she herself fell.
At the end of her life, she sternly shouted: "Don't worry about me, cut off the cable after crossing the suspension bridge, and rush back to the capital!" The words fell into the torrent and were no longer found.
Lin Qing didn't dare not listen to her sister's words, even if she felt terribly hated in her heart, she transported the coffin away with red eyes, cut the rope, and left with gritted teeth. The dead men walked around the mountain stream that was dozens of battles deep. They were sure that they couldn’t pass. They had to give up, but they couldn’t kill Li Xian, but they accidentally killed Lin Dan. Even if they successfully completed the mission, they could go back for business. Up.
