Chapter 90 Chapter 90 He has regained control of the Su Family Army...
On the morning of the second day of June, the weather was beautiful and windy. Xuan Jinyu, Su Guanzhang and Lan Jieer returned from a walk deep in the bamboo forest to help digestion.
A white falcon swooped down from the sky and landed on a branch of a peach tree at the entrance of their cave, which was already as tall as a man.
Seeing the white falcon, Lan Jie'er cried out excitedly, and her little body fluttered in Su Guanzhang's arms like a happy fish, but she couldn't escape from her father's palm.
Su Guanzhang held his daughter tightly to prevent her from breaking free from his arms, while reaching out his hand towards the white falcon in the tree.
The white falcon handed the new letter to him, and then flew into the small cave very skillfully to eat its snack.
"There's news about my second uncle." After opening the letter, Su Guanzhang calmed down for a while before speaking to Xuan Jinyu.
Xuan Jinyu saw the joy hidden under his calmness and held his hand.
She couldn't hide her happiness, and a joyful smile appeared on her face. "Grandma and Second Aunt must be very happy."
The brothers Wenwu, their wives and children, and everyone else in the Su family also put aside their worries.
After one year and three months, they finally received the news that Uncle Su was safe.
God bless you.
In the afternoon, Bai Suan brought another thick letter. It was from Uncle Su Er to Su Guanzhang, telling him what had happened during the more than one year since he disappeared.
"Zhang, my uncle already knows what's going on at home. He knows you're planning something, so he wrote to inform you of the situation in the army."
He has regained control of the Su family army.
Writing a letter to Su Guanzhang would free him from any worries.
Su Guanzhang paused while reading the letter, and looked at Xuan Jinyu, and they both noticed the surprise in each other's eyes.
It was a pleasant surprise that my second uncle had regained control of the Su family army.
You know, when Su Guanzhang and Xuan Wensheng were planning, they were thinking about how to bypass the military supervisors planted by the new emperor in the Su family army, get in touch with their old subordinates, and gain their support.
But now Mobei is not only the sphere of influence of the Su family army. The new emperor has also made a lot of efforts in the past year to try to control the Su family army.
Mobei has been infiltrated by his people, and it is no longer the case that the military and civilians are all loyal to the Su family.
Moreover, now that the new emperor has given his instructions, entry and exit to Mobei are strictly controlled, and not even a mosquito can escape his eyes.
If the Su family wanted to enter Mobei, they would be afraid of alerting the enemy. The previous waves of secret guards sent out had all returned without success, so Su Guanzhang and Xuan Jinyu said they should wait and see.
But I didn't expect that the second uncle of the Su family would return safely.
When he returned, he led the Su army to attack fiercely, repelling the enemy. He then pursued the enemy and defeated them until they had no power to attack again within ten years.
The war on the Mobei front, which had been deadlocked for more than a year, was finally ended. Uncle Su Er not only used his military exploits to clear himself of the charge of treason, but also single-handedly provoked civil unrest in the enemy country.
What treason? It's sheer nonsense!
Everyone in Mobei knows that it is precisely because of Uncle Su's scheme that the enemy country is plunged into chaos, with the monarch being cruel and the royal family and princes trying to seize the throne.
I just don't know how he did it!
By now, the military report must have been transmitted back to Shengjing City. Even if the new emperor Sheng Yu is secretly resentful and reluctant, everyone in the court and the country is watching. The imperial edict to bring the Su family back to the capital will probably reach Huaizhao County in a month.
"Second uncle is so awesome." Xuan Jinyu praised Su Guanzhang with admiration after listening to him read the letter.
The second uncle of the Su family, whose name was Su Yin, was a general of the first rank appointed by the late emperor himself and given the title "Xiaoyong", which described his agile demeanor on the battlefield.
Such a brave general who made the enemy tremble in fear, unexpectedly disappeared while fighting against the enemy more than a year ago.
This then prompted the new emperor to accuse the Su family of "collaborating with the enemy and treason", which led to all the subsequent events.
Su Yin's letters were concise, but the stacks of paper were thick. One can imagine how wonderful his life must have been during the year he was missing.
At the end of last year, there was a rare heavy snowfall in Mobei. The fighting between the two armies was forced to be suspended, and the military camp ushered in a short period of leisure.
Su Yin swiftly avoided the military supervisor sent by the new emperor and went to the tent of his subordinates.
But he only stayed in the tent for less than half a cup of tea and soon left quietly without disturbing anyone, including his subordinate.
Su Yin's disappearance was caused by a spy.
The spy was the son of an enemy spy who had been planted in Dasheng for more than 30 years and a Dasheng commoner. He was taught by the spy to be loyal to his father's motherland. When he grew up, he passed layers of selection and joined the Su family army.
The spy's surname was Yu, and he was a man with extraordinary endurance, just like his father. After joining the Su family army, he remained undercover for nearly five or six years, rising from an unknown soldier to a captain through his military exploits.
During the battle when Second Uncle Su disappeared, Captain Yu stood behind him. While he was fighting with the enemy general, he secretly lured enemy soldiers to besiege him and took the opportunity to poison him.
The poison was extremely vicious. Although it could not kill him immediately, it completely destroyed Su Yin's martial arts skills. Su Yin was unable to withstand the attack and was pushed off his horse by Yu Qianhu, rolling into the cliff.
However, although no one noticed Yu Qianhu's attack on the commander, he still suffered no good consequences. The man who successfully led the enemy to attack the commander was killed by the enemy general.
Su Yin was ambushed at that time because he was in a place with blocked vision when fighting with the enemy general, and there were many shadows blocking his view. He fell off the top of the mountain, and even the enemy general who had clashed with him could not find him for a while.
Later, when the Su family army was looking for someone, they had no idea where to find him, and it was for this reason.
After Su Yin fell off the top of the mountain, he was washed into an isolated valley by the surging underground river and was rescued by a miracle doctor in the valley.
Because his legs were broken and he lost all his martial arts skills, it took him half a year to recover.
The valley was a patchwork of information, and saving him was already an exception. The valley master refused to get any information for him.
After many days of effort, Su Yin finally managed to pry some clues out of the medicine boy. It turned out that the valley master was from an enemy country, and this valley floor also belonged to the enemy's territory.
Second Uncle Su knew that his identity had been exposed, and that the Valley Master had done him a great favor by not killing him but saving him, so he did not make things too difficult for him.
He stayed in the valley obediently to recuperate, but after his legs were able to move again, he was unable to move because of the poison.
By the time the remaining poison was cleared, both legs were completely healed.
At this time, seven months had passed since he disappeared.
When he left the valley, he heard the news that the new emperor of Dasheng had exiled the Su family to Guangxu Prefecture, and he was shocked.
Su Yin sneaked into the military camp, but found that the new emperor had sent a military supervisor. Although he did not take over the Su family army, it was not appropriate for him to show up.
At this time, he heard the passing caravans complain that all the doctors from the enemy countries had been summoned to the palace, and it was difficult to find a doctor for ordinary illnesses.
He speculated that the king of the enemy country or some important figure was ill, so he changed his appearance and sneaked into the enemy country.
It just so happened that during the more than half a year he had been in the valley, he had learned a lot of skills from the Valley Master, the Divine Doctor, and was also proficient in the art of disguise; plus the Valley Master had someone make a pass for him to get him out of the city, so it was easy for him to sneak into the enemy's capital.
He showed off his medical skills and was soon invited into the palace.
Su Yin observed that the enemy king was shaking uncontrollably, but it didn't seem like epilepsy. His eyes were bulging, his eyelids drooping, and his speech was slurred, as if he was speaking incoherently.
He was secretly amazed, wondering why this disease was so similar to the one the Valley Master had mentioned to him.
Uncle Su lived in the palace for a few days and visited the king's bedroom several times at night, and finally he figured out what was going on.
It turns out that the enemy king's illness is exactly the same as the one mentioned by the Valley Master.
The Valley Master had said to him, "There are powerful but ignorant people who, seeking immortality, actually feed on human brains. They don't know that the laws of nature are clear and that everything has cause and effect."
Su Yin was wondering why the Valley Master suddenly said such words to him.
Now I know that this king has become ill due to eating human brains for many years. He can hardly speak but still continues to kill and eat people. I can't help but think that he deserves it.
No wonder the Valley Master saved him when he saw that he was the enemy's commander-in-chief. He must have been extremely disappointed with his own king!
So he leaked the matter, causing everyone in the capital to feel insecure.
The prince, the younger brother of the king who coveted the throne, broke into the palace in the name of clearing the court of corrupt officials, but was secretly shot and killed by Su's second uncle.
The king had been killed by the prince, leaving the enemy state leaderless. The remaining royal family members and the nearly adult princes, with the help of their mothers' families, also fought for the throne, which soon led to civil unrest.
At this time, Uncle Su had accomplished his mission and retired smoothly from the capital.
When he returned to Dasheng, he secretly contacted the Su family's secret guards, but learned that the new emperor had sent people to assassinate the Su family, and he was furious.
While writing to the Su family, he secretly returned to the military camp and regained control of the Su family army.
Taking advantage of the internal strife in the enemy's army and the instability of the enemy's military camp, Su Yin led the Su family army to launch an offensive, catching the enemy off guard and forcing them to flee in panic.
Do it in one go.
The morale of the Su family army, which had been tormented by the stalemate on the front line for more than a year, was greatly boosted. They pursued the enemy and defeated them, forcing them to flee in defeat, with most of them killed or wounded.
It is estimated that it will not become popular in the next ten years.
When the troops were about to retreat, the sixth wave of secret guards sent to Mobei by Su Guanzhang and Xuan Wensheng were not intercepted and entered Mobei smoothly. It was then known that someone new was in control of Mobei.
This group of secret guards secretly investigated the military camp and were discovered by Su Yin, who recognized them.
It was then that Su Yin learned that Xuan Wensheng was the son of the former crown prince. Hence, less than half a day later, he wrote a second letter to Su Guanzhang.
After Su Guanzhang finished reading the letter, Xuan Jinyu finished her words of admiration that came from the bottom of her heart. Lan Jie'er, who had been nestled in her father's arms and sucking her little fingers quietly, suddenly screamed "Wow wow wow" a few times.
Not only that, she was so excited that she stepped on her father's legs and almost jumped up and down, as if she was cheering for her great-uncle whom she had never met.
Su Guanzhang quickly hugged her little body and said with a helpless smile: "You are only seven and a half months old, you can't even crawl yet, and you're already thinking about jumping."
Although Lan Jie'er couldn't crawl yet, she could already roll back and forth. Every time she rolled around in her little bamboo bed, the white falcon that landed on the fence was startled so much that its feathers on its head stood up several times.
Fortunately, Su Guanzhang had considered this when he built this small bamboo bed for his daughter. Not only was the fence made sturdy and safe, the bamboo strips were polished very smoothly. After she was three months old and could roll over, he surrounded the fence with soft cotton cloth and filled it with cotton wool.
Therefore, no matter how much trouble Sister Lan makes in there, she will not hurt herself.
However, Sister Lan had no protection on the stone bed where her parents slept.
Every time, the couple did not dare to leave her alone on the stone bed. They would either put her back on the small bamboo bed or leave one person to watch her.
Even so, Sister Lan still fell once.
