Being a Lady of an Influential Family

While the warring parties were cleaning up the battlefield and taking stock of the results of the battle, Leng Sa was having breakfast in a small town not far from Ruohe.

Although this place is now occupied by the Niles, life still has to go on after all. The Niles are now facing the pressure from the Southern Six Provincial Army and they have no time to control these ordinary people, so the people in the small town The people are still doing what they should do.

Leng Sa was sitting at a simple wooden table by the street, with a bowl of sweet morning tea and breakfast unique to southern Xinjiang placed in front of her.

Leng Sa drank the sweet and milky morning tea, and felt that she had found the feeling of drinking milk tea.

Su Ze frowned after drinking, he hated such sweet things.

Under the bright sunshine in the morning, Leng Sa's originally fair complexion turned into a light brown color unique to women in this area, and some modifications were made to her eyebrows and eyes. There are even some spots on it. Wearing a colorful long dress, her hair was also braided and hanging down her side, she looked like a delicate and sunny girl from southern Xinjiang.

Leng Sa was very familiar with him, and while drinking milk tea, he chatted with the boss who didn't have many guests. During the conversation, I learned that the city was quite chaotic when the Neilians first arrived, and the Neilians stationed here often bullied them. However, those Neilites seem to have gone to war recently, and there are not many Nero soldiers in the city at all, so everyone's life gradually recovered.

Even the boss himself has only reopened in the last few days, but unfortunately the number of customers is less than 20% of the original.

Seeing that the two were unfamiliar, the boss asked a few questions in passing.

Leng Sa smiled without blinking and said that the brother and sister came from Yingzhou and wanted to go to Licheng to find their uncle.

The boss told them sympathetically that Ruohe is now closed and it is difficult for them to pass, and suggested that they stay here for a while or go home first to avoid any danger.

Leng Sa thanked the boss, paid the money, and pulled Su Ze up to leave.

The two walked along the street and turned into a small alley when they were almost at the end. They walked for a while and stood still outside a small courtyard door. Su Ze stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After the rhythmic knock on the door, there was no movement inside. Su Ze paused for a moment before knocking on the door again a few times. The rhythm was still the same, and it took a while before footsteps came from inside, and the door was pulled open from the inside, revealing a dark face, "Please come in."

After the two entered, the door was closed again. Leng Sa and Su Ze stood in the small courtyard and looked around. The small courtyard was well tidied up, with all kinds of utensils, flowers and plants, and even a small vegetable patch growing small vegetables , it can be seen that the owner of the yard has lived here for a long time and lived very seriously.

The young man who opened the door for them looked to be about the same height as Leng Sa, wearing coarse clothes and being inconspicuous. He looked hesitantly at Leng Sa and then at Su Ze, "You two..."

Leng Sa took a step back and said nothing, so Su Ze could only say, "My name is Su."

Only then did the young man breathe a sigh of relief, "Adjutant Su, we received a notice last night that you will come today. This..."

"..." Su Ze said, "This is one of my own, you can just call her Ah Yue."

"Yes, the two of you are welcome." The young man smiled and nodded, asking the two to enter the room and talk.

After entering the room, I found that there were still three people sitting inside, two men and one woman, all of whom looked like locals from southern Xinjiang. Seeing the two people brought in, the middle-aged woman spoke first, "These two are the ones the higher-ups said they would come over?"

The young man nodded and said, "This is Adjutant Su."

Although they have been stationed in the southwestern region all year round and have hardly ever returned to Yongcheng, they also know the names of the most important adjutants around Young Master. Besides, they received a notice yesterday that Su Ze would come and asked them to cooperate.

The woman looked away from Su Ze and landed on Leng Sa, "Then who is this?"

Su Ze smiled and said, "This is Ah Yue, who acted with me this time."

The middle-aged woman couldn't help frowning when she heard the words, "Is it too young? What can she do?" It wasn't that this woman was deliberately picking on the thorns, but Leng Sa's appearance after disguise, although her skin color was several times darker than before The color number, but the appearance looks smaller than when it is not disguised. Coupled with the fact that the people in southern Xinjiang are older than those in Jiangnan, the woman subconsciously felt that she might only be sixteen or seventeen years old.

Su Ze didn't explain what Leng Sa would do, but said, "Since Eldest Young Master asked her to come with me, it makes sense. Don't worry, she won't hold you back."

The others looked at each other without saying a word. They didn't want to refute Young Master Fu's order, but they really couldn't trust Leng Sa. Their line of business is actually very dangerous, and naturally they don't want someone who doesn't understand to hold them back.

Leng Sa, who was drinking tea, stood up suddenly. Before the others could figure out what she wanted to do, they saw that Leng Sa had rushed towards the middle-aged woman in front of her.

The woman reacted quickly, she leaned back to avoid Leng Sa's hand and at the same time reached out to draw the gun.

It's just that before her hand touched the gun, a slender hand grabbed her wrist. Leng Sa held the middle-aged woman's hand with one hand, and with the other hand, she had already pulled out the gun from her waist.

The three men sitting on one side had already stood up, and they all drew their guns to point at Leng Sa, when the muzzle of the gun in Leng Sa's hand was pressing against the temple of the middle-aged woman.

She raised her eyes to look at the three men opposite, and asked, "Is it all right now?"

The three of them were embarrassed for a while, and looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Su Ze couldn't help laughing secretly, but his face was solemn.

Standing up and walking to Leng Sa, he took the gun in her hand and handed it back to the middle-aged woman with a smile, "The little girl is young and has a bad temper. Please forgive me, do you believe it now? She passed through I have undergone rigorous training and will not hold you back."

There was silence in the hall for a while, and then the middle-aged woman smiled and said, "It's because we don't know Taishan with our eyes. Please forgive Adjutant Su and Miss Ayue."

Su Ze naturally smiled and said it's okay, if you don't fight, you don't know each other. Leng Sa just nodded slightly, maintaining the character of the arrogant girl very well.

Seeing that the atmosphere was still a bit awkward, the others hurried forward to smooth things over. Both sides intend to ease the situation, hit it off and there are still business to talk about, and the atmosphere quickly improved.

Leaving aside the plans of Leng Sa, Su Ze and others, the atmosphere in the Nile camp on the other side can no longer be simply described as dignified.

They lost at least 15,000 people on both sides of the First World War last night. This can already be regarded as the worst single battlefield casualty in the history of the Legion of Honor after the Great Patriotic War many years ago.

And this was just the first battle with the Anxia people face to face.

In this way, not only can they not explain to the people and the king in the country, but they can't even explain to the soldiers of the Legion of Glory.

Previously, the Royal Guards and other troops were defeated, and they secretly laughed at the opponent's low ability. If this incident is reported back to the country, the result can be imagined, and the people who are ridiculed and ridiculed will undoubtedly become them.

The air pressure in the meeting room was so heavy that it was a little breathless, but the person sitting at the front didn't speak, and the others naturally didn't dare to speak.

Sitting at the front is a middle-aged man in his early fifties. He has the unique skin color and appearance of the Nile. With an ordinary appearance, he couldn't help but cast his eyes on him, and even obeyed his orders.

He is Sanha, the current head of the Nile Legion of Glory. Speaking of which, it is understandable for King Nile to be afraid of the Glory Legion. Because the current Legion of Glory is not the same as the head of the legion appointed by the king at first, almost all the heads of the recent generations of the Legion are members of the Sanha family.

Sanha's great-grandfather, grandfather, and father had all been army commanders, and if all goes well, Sanha's son will take over this position in the future.

Such a military force has been in the hands of a family for several generations. Who in the upper class will not feel terrified?

It can be said that the power of the Sangha family in Nile is much greater than that of Fu Jialong's family in Anxia. If it weren't for the fact that the Nile royal family also had soldiers and horses and real power in their hands, and that Nile was a country that paid great attention to dignity, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it could compete with the royal family.

Sangha naturally felt the fear of the royal family towards them.

But this is an unsolvable contradiction that neither Sangha himself nor the royal family can resolve.

Glancing at everyone present, San Ha said, "Everyone, please tell me. What do you think about what happened last night?"

Everyone looked at each other, and no one wanted to speak first.

Sanha snorted softly, "Who was in charge of the battle yesterday?"

A general sitting on Sangha's left stood up, with guilt and fear on his face, "I underestimated the Anxia people, please punish the general."

San Ha shook his head and said, "Why are you nervous? Even if you want to pursue responsibility, it's not now. The defeat last night was not without harm. Everyone has seen how powerful Anxia people are?"

Although Nero lost consecutive battles against the Anxia army, the Glory Legion actually didn't pay much attention to the Anxia army before. In their view, the previous consecutive defeats were just because they were too rubbish, and it did not prove how powerful the Anxia people were.

In the country of Nile, members of the Legion of Glory have always looked down on other soldiers and legions.

Now that I kicked an iron board and hit my head with blood, I can finally calm down a bit.

"The general taught you the lesson." Everyone quickly responded solemnly.

Sanha said: "Since we failed, we must learn from this lesson. The next battle can only be won but not defeated. If we fail again...we can't explain to those high-ranking officials and the king, let alone face the challenge of creating glory for the Legion of Glory. Senior! Do you understand?"

"Yes, General!" Seeing that San Ha really had no intention of pursuing this failure, everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

He no longer had any scruples, and began to express various opinions on the defeat in accordance with Sanha's instructions. The conference room was full of speeches and arguments.

San Ha looked at the group of subordinates in front of him, and his eyes showed some satisfaction. The failure has already been caused. Last night's battle was a huge blow to the morale of the Legion of Glory. While learning the lesson, they couldn't really hit the morale of their subordinates again. He believed that these proud subordinates would regain their own glory.

After all the subordinates had retreated, the young man who had been standing behind Sanha without saying a word said, "Father, the battle is not going well. I'm afraid the king will..."

Sanha snorted softly, and said, "Isn't this expected? The king dispatched the Seventeenth Army to clean up the mess at this time, just to take this opportunity to weaken our grip on us."

The young man nodded, "Yes, Fu Fengcheng's ability is beyond our expectations."

Sangha had a headache, "Nile didn't take advantage of Anxia's domestic chaos in the early years, how does the king think he can take advantage of it now?" It's not that Sangha doesn't covet Anxia's land, But he barely has self-knowledge. This time, if it wasn't for the invasion of powerful Dayin people in the northwest of Anxia, ​​and Sun Liang wanted to move in the southwest, they didn't spend much effort. Even when the Shen family was still there, Ni Luo couldn't have done it so easily. invasion.

This is the most embarrassing part, Sanha doesn't agree with fighting this battle at all, but he has to fight, and even can only win but not lose.

Because the previous Nile Army had already occupied the place, it would be a great shame if the Legion of Glory retreated.

All those who oppose them in the country will find an excellent excuse to attack them, and the reputation of the Legion of Glory over the years will be shattered.

The young man said, "Father, what shall we do next?"

Sang Ha narrowed his eyes slightly, and was about to speak when a guard's report came from outside the door, "General, there is someone outside who wants to see him, and he said he came from the other side of the river."

Before Sanha could speak, the young man beside him had already spoken, "Who?"

The guard said, "The other party refused to reveal his identity, saying that he would only speak up after seeing the general."

San Ha pondered for a moment, then said, "Bring him in."

"Yes."

"Father..." the young man frowned, San Ha raised his hand to stop him from finishing his sentence, and said, "I'll see you first."

After a while, an Anxia man was ushered in by the guards.

Sanha and his son looked at each other carefully, but the other party seemed very calm, "General, please rest assured, I am not carrying a weapon, and I was just ordered to deliver a letter." The other party's Nile language is very fluent. A native of Nero.

Sanha stared at him and said, "At whose order?"

The other party smiled and said, "Of course it's Young Master Fu."

"Young Master Fu?"

The other party seemed to think that Sangha didn't understand the meaning of the word Fu Shao, and added, "General of the Anxia Army, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Army of the Six Southern Provinces, Commander of the First Army of the Six Southern Provinces, Fu Fengcheng."

Sanha was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth and asked, "Where is the letter?"

The other party took out a sealed letter and handed it over. The young man standing beside Sanha stepped forward to take the letter and checked it carefully before handing it to Sanha.

San Ha was not in a hurry to read the contents of the letter, and the person who delivered the letter didn't care and said with a smile, "The letter has been delivered, so I will take my leave first."

Sang Ha slightly raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does Young Master Fu not need me to reply?" The man said, "Young Master Fu said that if General San Ha wants to reply, there is naturally a way to send the letter to him. And...Maybe General San Ha needs time to think .”

San Ha thought about it, and after a while, he waved to the man to indicate that he could leave.

The man bowed respectfully before retreating.

"Father, why didn't you just keep him?" the young man couldn't help frowning.

Sang Ha said, "It's just a messenger. If Fu Fengcheng dares to let him come, it means that it is useless even if we detain him. Besides... I also want to see what Fu Fengcheng wants to do."

While speaking, San Ha's eyes fell on the sealed blank envelope in his hand.

That's all for today, right shoulder hurts when I wake up in the morning~~It feels like it's going to be useless~~
