Being a Lady of an Influential Family

In the next few days, both sides calmed down a little in front of Yanming Pass.

On the second day after the Loulanzhou army arrived, the Dayin people launched a round of fierce attack, but unfortunately they were blocked back. Without an overwhelming advantage in firepower, facing Yanming Pass, which has stood for hundreds of years, the people of Dayin also have the meaning of "go all out, then decline, and finally exhaust".

The subsequent cessation was obviously a preparation to re-mobilize resources and troops and make a new deployment plan.

Naturally, Yanming Pass was not idle. Lou Lanzhou and the generals of the Northwest Army held battle meetings for days to discuss the deployment of troops and horses, and supplies from Jiazhou gradually began to arrive at Yanming Pass.

Zhang Jingzhi is a very reliable and good young man, and he handles such trivial matters as logistics, which is enough to make any novice feel like a bucket, in an orderly manner. How many soldiers and horses there are in the northwest, and what materials are needed in which places are all arranged by him properly.

Leng Sa felt that if she changed herself, she would probably just want to lie in a pile of supplies and cry with her head in her arms, or simply crash her head to death in the supplies, or she would give whatever she wanted in front of her, completely unable to estimate the actual needs and actual tolerance. ability.

When others are busy, Leng Sa is idle. The elite soldiers in the six southern provinces need to rest. After two major events in a row, Leng Sa also needs to rest.

So Leng Sa's itinerary for the past two days turned into patrolling the training of his subordinates, visiting the wounded, visiting Song Lang, eating, drinking and sleeping.

As for the battle meetings that Lou Lanzhou participated in, even if Master Leng heard about it, he knew it but didn't know why. Lou Lanzhou saw that she had no talent or interest in this area, so he didn't force her to attend.

The sun had just risen in the morning and the temperature was very comfortable.

Leng Sa was a little bored sitting on the roof watching the couple not far away showing their affection.

The houses in Yanmingguan are all built very small, and it is almost impossible to see the houses with high walls, cornices, carved beams and painted buildings like those in the southern six provinces and the capital, so it is very easy to climb up.

In the courtyard separated by a low wall, Song Lang was sitting under the eaves basking in the sun.

Huo Yao sat beside him, and while the two were chatting, Huo Yao still didn't forget to pass water and feed fruit from time to time, caring about whether the wound hurts, it was very nasty. Leng Sa instantly felt that the breakfast she ate not long ago had turned into dog food, which made her stomach ache.

At the same time, he couldn't help but miss Fu Dashao who was fighting in the southwest and Xiao Shitou who was far away in the six southern provinces.

It's been a few months since it came out, and I don't know what Xiao Shishi looks like, and whether he still remembers his mother. Although Fu Fengcheng sent a telegram to her after returning to Yongcheng before, saying that everything was fine with Xiao Shitou, and Governor Fu also sent messages from time to time, but after all, it was more reassuring not to see the baby with his own eyes.

So, when will this battle end?

Just when Leng Sa looked up at the sky sadly, Huo Yao's laughter came from below, "Sa Sa, what are you doing?"

Leng Sa looked down at the two of them, waved his hands and said, "Absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and leave me alone."

"..." The two people below looked at each other, speechless.

Soon Song Lang said with a smile, "Young Madam, since you have nothing to do, why don't you come down and have a chat."

Leng Sa pricked up her ears slightly, but thought to herself: What are you talking about? How much dog food did you two feed me?

Just listen to Song Lang said, "I don't know if Mrs. Fu has received the news from Young Master Fu?"

not yet!

Leng Sa stood up, walked directly from the roof to the small courtyard next to her, stepped on the low wall between the two courtyards and slid into the courtyard.

"What happened to Fu Fengcheng?" Leng Sa asked.

Huo Yao pulled her to sit down and poured a glass of water for her.

Song Lang said with a smile, "Young Master Fu has won a series of victories in the Southwest, and he just received the victory report this morning. It must be that he has not had time to send it to Mrs. Young."

Only then did Leng Sa feel relieved, and leaned back with a relaxed body, "That's good. If the Nile people can be driven out as soon as possible, the situation in the northwest can be greatly eased."

Song Lang nodded and said, "That's right, the Nile lost in the southwest, Sun Liang will definitely return to the rescue, and then the pressure on my father will be greatly reduced."

For Sun Liang, the southwest is much more important than the northwest.

"However, once Sun Liang turns around, Brother Fu may be under a lot of pressure." Song Lang said.

Leng Sa was also a little worried, but she still believed in Fu Fengcheng, "With the support of the Shen family and the Yue family, it must not be a big problem."

Although the Shen family is gone, as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and Shen Sinian still has a place among the remnants of the original Shen family.

Today's Southwest's force composition is mainly composed of two legions in the six southern provinces, and also supported by some soldiers and horses from the remnants of the Yue family and the Shen family. The record in the southwest is quite astonishing.

Compared with the Northwest, which is mainly based on flat push, the Southwest with complex terrain is the best place to play tactics.

Song Lang thought for a while, not only Fu Fengcheng, Shen Sinian, and Yue Li in the southwest, but also Yao Guan and even Governor Yue and the entire Yue family behind him, so they really didn't have much to worry about. Immediately put down this topic, said, "Young Madam, be more careful during this time."

Leng Sa raised her eyebrows slightly, "What does Young Master Song mean?"

Song Lang said with a smile, "Ah Yao said that everyone in Ningcheng is well aware of Young Madam's feat. It must be the same in other places. The people of Dayin have suffered such a big loss, so it is impossible not to want to get back."

Speaking of this, Song Lang frowned slightly and said, "These news... really shouldn't have spread so quickly."

Leng Sa shook her head and said, "I can't hide it."

She was also very depressed at first, but soon relieved.

Unless you don't tell anyone about this kind of thing and don't deal with any outsiders, it's impossible not to spread it.

If it is on the territory of the six southern provinces, these points can indeed be achieved, but it is unlikely to be possible in the northwest. Moreover, Leng Sa feels that although the special arms focus on catching them by surprise, there is no need to make them the same as some ancient top-secret institutions.

Huo Yao frowned and said, "You mean, people from Dayin will be unfavorable to Sa Sa?"

Song Lang said, "It's very possible. If the young lady doesn't go to the battlefield, it may not be possible for the Dayin people to defeat the young lady on the frontal battlefield. But..."

Leng Sa interjected, "But I can't just stay in peace like this, and maybe even cause trouble for them from time to time?"

Song Lang nodded and smiled, "That's right, and after the two achievements of Young Madam, I think many people should be interested in the tactics of Young Madam."

In fact, since ancient times, every powerful army in Anxia has organizations similar to special forces. But in the era of imperial power, the most important use of such elites has never been the battlefield, but the secret power that absolutely belongs to the royal family or those with high positions. Born with a feeling of taboo and unspeakable, once the power is subverted, these people are the objects that must be eradicated absolutely. Even if he survives, he can only die incognito, and there is almost no possibility of continuing to serve another person in power.

In this way, the hidden forces in the hands of every person in power have to be retrained and recultivated, without continuity and system. It takes a very long time and a lot of investment to train these people, so they all exist as secret guards or intelligence organizations for those in power, and what are used in wars are similar to death charges. Occasionally, some are particularly outstanding, and it is difficult to form a system and survive for a long time.

The modern military has gradually gained awareness of this aspect. The Song family also has similar teams, but Song Lang feels that they are not as good as those under Leng Sa.

This Mrs. Fu Jiashao seems to have systematically mastered a set of methods on how to train, teach and use these elite soldiers. Song Shao even thinks that they can be even better, which makes Song Shao very curious.

Leng Sa nodded and said, "Thank you Song Shao for reminding me, I will be careful."

Song Lang nodded and said, "That's good. Although it is said that Yanmingguan is our own people, it's hard to say whether someone will infiltrate."

Song Lang's reminder to Leng Sa naturally took it to heart, although she felt that it was a bit of a fuss for the Dayin people to assassinate her just because of this matter, but it was hard to guarantee that the Dayin people were particularly cautious.

After all, isn't it also rumored that Dayin rushed to attack the Northwest just after changing the power holder? Was it because the Song Governor had slapped the current power in the face?

Oh, it's not a slap in the face, it's a sworn enemy.

But no matter whether it is possible or not, Leng Sa is still on guard and active defense so as not to be taken advantage of by the Dayin people.

If Master Leng was successfully assassinated, it would be a great shame and humiliation.

Somewhere in the southwest, Fu Fengcheng, who just came back from the outside, was covered in gunpowder smoke and exhausted, and the soldiers who followed him were even more embarrassed and exhausted, wishing they could fall asleep on the spot.

However, in a short period of time, everyone seemed to have a kind of evil spirit that seemed to smell like blood. This was the evil spirit that was hard to dispel from fighting in the hail of bullets on the battlefield.

Yao Guan walked beside Fu Fengcheng, looking at the tall and straight figure of Young Master Fu, he couldn't help admiring secretly in his heart. Their young master has really experienced it. In the future, as long as there is a young man with them, old guys like them don't have to worry about the safety of the six southern provinces.

The reason why Governor Fu sent Yao Guan out so readily this time, was more or less intended to protect his son.

After all, is it facing a country, or fighting in a completely unfamiliar place. Although there are Shen family and Yue family to help, it is more complicated because they are not all from our own. In case something goes wrong with Fu Fengcheng, Yao Guan, a seasoned and well-informed elder, can help him a bit.

But after arriving in the southwest, Yao Guan realized that the warlord was completely overwhelmed. Young Master Fu was able to control the entire battlefield with ease without his help and guidance. Yao Guan was used as a brave general who was good at fighting.

Yao Guan didn't have any dissatisfaction with this either, as he was getting older, he was already impatient to go through the painstaking days of following Governor Fu to check for gaps and fill in gaps. If it is said that Governor Fu's purpose of leading troops back then was to drop ten meetings with one force, Young Master Fu's strategy and tactics were a pleasing art. Violent when it's time to be violent, and tactful when it's time to be tactful, there is no delay in strategizing to win thousands of miles and charging into battle.

Less than a month after the start of the Southwest War, the Army of the Six Southern Provinces achieved an astonishing record of pulling out six cities in five days. This time, 3,000 troops were used to drag the 20,000 Nilotic army into the deep mountain covered with miasma and swamps. Seven days later, the Southern Six Provincial Army returned with less than 300 damage, and none of the 20,000 Nilotic army was able to come out intact.

As soon as this battle report was sent back to the military headquarters, those old guys in the military department immediately exploded. Some people even sent telegrams questioning whether they had lied about the record and doubted the authenticity of the battle.

Of course, someone also quietly called Yao Guan, asking him to make a detailed written report on the battle so that all parties can study it.

Back at the headquarters, Fu Fengcheng sat down and rested against the back of the chair.

Usually when there are outsiders present, First Young Master Fu would always sit upright, but now he is really tired, fortunately Yao Guan is not an outsider, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

Yao looked at Fu Fengcheng's exhausted appearance and didn't bother him, quietly retreated out after a while before coming in with a cup of tea.

Fu Fengcheng opened his eyes and watched Yao Guan pass the tea to him, and said, "Master, drink some tea to refresh yourself." Although it seemed that Young Master Fu hadn't closed his eyes for two or three days, but for a while I really can't rest.

"Where is Shen Sinian?" Fu Fengcheng asked after drinking half a cup of tea and feeling refreshed.

Yao Guan said, "I heard that the young master is back, and he has already rushed back with Young Master Yue, and we will be there in about ten minutes."

Fu Fengcheng nodded, raised his hand and rubbed his brows, and said, "The Nile people have been hit hard this time, and they probably won't have the strength to fight back recently. The Nile people will either retreat or increase their troops."

Yao Guan agreed with Fu Fengcheng's point of view, "Master, do you think the Nile people will retreat or continue to increase their troops?"

Fu Fengcheng sneered and said, "After spending such a huge price and not getting anything, how can you give up so easily?"

Yao Guan said: "Then we will continue to increase troops?"

Fu Fengcheng said, "Even if the Nile people want to retreat, Sun Liang will make them change their minds."

Speaking of Sun Liang and Yao Guan, he couldn't help but frowned, "At the beginning, he really shouldn't have been allowed to return to the southwest alive, otherwise there wouldn't be such a disaster."

Fu Fengcheng's mentality is very balanced, "If the capital really directly detains Sun Liang or kills him, the Sun family's army may turn against him at that time. The Sun family is a local snake in the southwest, as long as they are there, no one will be able to please anyone in the southwest. Well... take this opportunity to catch them all."

Young Master Fu's speech has always been flat, unlike many high-status people who speak out and scold Fang Qiu for his extraordinary momentum, as if he is giving a speech to thousands of people.

But from his flat tone, Yao Guan could hear a ray of cold killing intent.

Yao Guan also sighed, "So there is still a tough battle to fight?"

Fu Fengcheng nodded, "General Yao will have to work hard in the future."

Yao Guan quickly waved his hands and said, "What the young master said, isn't this our duty?"

Fu Fengcheng changed the subject, "In the past few days, is there any news from Madam?"

Speaking of General Yao Guan, he immediately regained his energy, clapped his hands and smiled, "Young Marshal, don't you know that our Young Madam has really become famous in An Xia these days."

Young Master Fu has just returned. Although he has made extraordinary achievements, only the upper echelons of the military and Governor Fu know about it. And even if it is widely advertised, a large-scale war will not be the glory of a single person.

If there were no subordinates who were not afraid of death, and if there were no grassroots commanders who accurately executed the orders of their superiors and acted accordingly, no matter how powerful Mr. Fu's tactics were, they would be nothing more than words on paper.

But Mrs. Fu's situation is completely different these days. Although she also brought two hundred elite soldiers from the Fu family, the process sounds like a legend that makes people's blood boil.

Compared with analyzing the battlefield situation, the general public naturally prefers simple and crude hero legends, especially if the hero is a stunning beauty, it will be more dramatic.

It's just... He seems to have seen something different in an unknown tabloid?

Yao Guan shook his head and put aside an unremarkable little gossip, expressing that it was not important.

Fu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh? What happened?"

General Yao praised the young lady of the Fu family's great achievements in the past few days on the spot, but he didn't see the expression on his young lady's face become more serious.

After Yao Guan finished speaking, he realized that the young master was not as proud as they thought. He touched his nose and quickly realized that he was secretly cursing himself for being confused.

The young couple is already very annoyed that they are forced to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and he is still blatantly preaching in front of the husband how his wife went through life and death, bloody and bloody? Is this okay?

Coughing lightly, Yao Guan said, "Young Master, Young Madam has always done things properly, so there is no need to worry too much. And the news from the northwest also said that Young Madam was not injured."

Fu Fengcheng nodded slightly to accept General Yao's comfort, "Please, General Yao, let Su Ze come to see me later."

Although Yao Guan didn't know why, he still nodded and said, "I'll send someone to call him over."

As an adjutant trained by First Young Master Fu himself, Adjutant Su is also very busy in this situation, and cannot be a follower on call at any time.

The voices of Shen Sinian and Yue Li came from outside while the two were talking, and the two immediately stopped the topic, and turned their gazes to the gate.
