Meanwhile, on the other side.
Qin Muyu, with four deputy generals and 50,000 troops, prepared to bypass Lancheng, advance into southern Xinjiang, and quietly take it back.
At that time, they could form a pincer attack formation with the Chu army and encircle Lancheng in the middle.
The Southern Barbarian Princess will definitely lose!
She is doomed to fail.
The premise is... that he can take over southern Xinjiang.
As the trip was confidential and must not attract any attention, the 50,000 elite soldiers were divided into 20 small teams. They disguised themselves as ordinary people, beggars, or merchants to avoid detection by the southern barbarians.
Along the way, we marched quietly.
Qin Muyu sat on the horse's back, looking straight ahead, saying nothing, only the sword at his waist hitting the saddle again and again.
Very quiet.
The two lieutenants who followed behind him saw this and couldn't help but frowned and whispered:
"Why didn't General Qin say a word?"
"Are we just going to Southern Xinjiang directly?"
"He is so young and inexperienced, how can he possibly take back Southern Xinjiang? I really don't understand why the Regent would assign two of us veterans to follow a young boy like him..."
The murmured voices did not conceal the dissatisfaction in their hearts at all.
yes.
The two of them had fought on the battlefield for many years, so how could they obey the orders of a twenty-year-old boy?
Lieutenant General Li held the reins and rode his horse, saying coldly:
"If it weren't for the order from the Regent, why would I obey a little boy?"
On the side, Deputy General Zhang was also dissatisfied: "He was captured in Southern Xinjiang before, and he was captured again in Mohuai Prefecture this time. He has no ability to lead us..."
"Are we going to watch him and his 50,000 men die together?"
Although the rustling sound is small, people who practice martial arts have sharp ears and eyes.
All these words entered Qin Muyu's ears.
He heard it all, but there was no emotion on his face, and his eyes were calm. He had long since lost his former impetuousness and revealed his true character.
Suddenly, he raised his voice:
"We borrowed the passage from Qin."
"What?"
The two lieutenants stopped talking and looked over subconsciously: "Borrowing the passage of Qin?"
"If we go directly to Southern Xinjiang, we will definitely attract the attention of the Southern Barbarians. We should go north, pass through Qin's territory, and go around to Southern Xinjiang quietly."
The two of them found it very funny when they heard it.
Lieutenant General Li sneered:
"General Qin, you are so arrogant. Right now, our country is at war with the southern barbarians. We are charging into Qin with 50,000 elite soldiers. It is already polite of Qin not to attack us."
Deputy General Zhang said:
"If we go there rashly, Qin will definitely regard us as invaders; but if we send a document to seek the Emperor's consent, it will take several days to go back and forth, and our army cannot afford it."
I still want to borrow the road.
How could it be as easy as he said?
He is really a newborn calf and has no idea of the hardships of the battlefield.
"I wonder if Young General Qin has any other suggestions?"
Qin Muyu glanced at him, his eyes cold: "I said, go north, enter Qin State, and borrow the road."
"This road won't work. Are you going to lead us to our deaths? You have been captured one after another. You are unworthy of your position and lack the ability. You are simply incapable of leading us!"
Lieutenant General Li raised his voice, as straightforward as a knife, and pulled it out directly to confront Qin Muyu.
The soldiers in the rear were shocked.
This is……
quarrel?
We haven't even fought the enemy yet, why are they starting a quarrel for no reason?
Qin Muyu looked at him coldly:
"So? Vice Admiral Li has finally expressed his dissatisfaction with this Major General?"
Now that it was torn, Lieutenant General Li stopped pretending:
"right!"
"You are young and energetic, and you are not qualified to take on this important task. When I was on the battlefield, you were just a young boy who had just learned how to fight. When it comes to leading troops and fighting, I have much more experience than you, and when it comes to martial arts, I am no less powerful than anyone else."
What qualifications does Major General Qin have to lead the three armies?
Just because he has a good uncle who is on good terms with the Regent?
Perhaps he obtained his military rank through the backdoor.
The more Lieutenant General Li thought about it, the more dissatisfied he became, and his voice gradually became louder:
"General Qin relies on his good relationship with the Regent, but war is not an occasion where you can act as you please. Each of your orders concerns tens of thousands of lives. I can't just sit there and watch you do whatever you want!"
"What a big mouth!"
Not far away, a clear voice broke through the air:
"Let me meet you!"
The long sword broke through the air.
A nimble figure came flying on horseback and attacked Lieutenant General Li.
Lieutenant General Li immediately drew his sword to meet him.
Bang!
The swords collided, producing crackling sparks.
Qin Muxue raised her wrist, shook off his force, and attacked again.
Lieutenant General Li took a few moves, but found that this man's moves were very tricky, his movements were flexible and very agile. He was riding on a horse, and his brute force seemed a little clumsy.
The sword flashed so fast that he was distracted and failed to defend himself, and was kicked off his horse.
"ah!"
Bang!
Lieutenant General Li fell hard.
Looking up, he saw the woman in green snatching his horse, sitting on it, swung the sword in her hand, and coldly put it back into the sheath.
"When marching and fighting, isn't it the most important thing to have a strong command?"
She looked down, her brows cold:
"If everyone is like Lieutenant General Li, with their own ideas and running around during a war, will we still be able to fight this war? Besides, your military strength is not that top-notch."
Lieutenant General Li's face immediately turned red with shame and anger:
“You…you…”
"Why are you here?" Qin Muyu looked at Qin Muxue.
She smiled:
"When the country is in trouble, every man has a duty to take the lead. Even though I am a woman, I should lead by example. Naturally, I am here to help you."
"You want to borrow the road from Qinguo Street. I happen to know Brother Nie, the border guard there."
Bang!
Not far away, the sound of broken branches came suddenly.
"Who's there!?"
Qin Muyu held down his sword and looked over cautiously, only to see a sliver of white clothing passing from behind the tree trunk. However, under so many eyes, the exposed figure could no longer be hidden.
After a few seconds, he slowly walked out:
"It's me."
"Brother Lu?"
Qin Muxue was surprised.
How come he is here?
When they left Jiangnan, they each had their own directions and goals. How could they meet in this place?
Lu Yunchu also looked surprised:
"Miss Qin, why are you here?"
"I heard about the war and came here to follow my brother. Why is Senior Brother Lu here?"
"I...I'm going to visit my relatives in the city ahead."
Qin Muxue was slightly stunned: "Aren't you an orphan?"
Where did the relatives come from?
"I'm an orphan? Oh, yes, I'm an orphan... an orphan... I was ordered by my master to do some work for him. I just happened to pass by here and I didn't expect to bump into you. Isn't this a coincidence?"
