The name of Baihu is Jin Mancheng, a middle-aged man with a round face, a fat belly, and a shiny face. He was wearing dozens of kilograms of armor, and he was already panting and sweating profusely even while standing.
The two general bannermen named Li Kun and Cheng Gao didn't look much better.
They are all officials, not like soldiers or generals.
Jin Mancheng took a breath, looked up at the soldiers in front of him, and said loudly: "Brothers, you all know that the Meng Yuan people have gone south."
"We are still far away from it now. But we have to guard against it."
"From now on, we will practice every three days."
"People are not allowed to leave the team if they have nothing to do."
"Whoever dares to leave the team without permission will be killed."
His body is puffy and fat, but his official power is not small. The word "Zhan" is majestic, like a sharp blade, floating above the heads of the soldiers, and will fall down at any time.
Wu Nian had no objection to this. As for the army, if it cannot maintain strict military discipline, it will have no combat effectiveness. If there is an official announcement, he will abide by it.
Li Ding has nothing to do to make trouble, so let's worry about it.
but. This military camp is under closed management, and Liu Xiang is still sick there. Coupled with his relationship with Li Ding.
Wu Nian frowned, feeling troubled, very troubled.
Under the leadership of their respective flags. Wu Nian and the soldiers followed the crowd and responded in unison.
"yes."
Jin Mancheng nodded with satisfaction, and said in a slightly calmer tone: "I allow you to go home today and give an explanation. You will be back in half an hour. After regrouping, each flag will be responsible for their own training."
"Thank you, Master Baihu."
Wu Nian followed the crowd and bowed to Jin Mancheng.
Li Ding stood at the front, holding the handle of the knife at his waist. Turning his head to look at Wu Nian, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, showing a slight sneer.
He had another idea.
"See if I don't kill you."
The anger in Li Ding's chest was boiling. Now the matter is no longer as simple as his sister coveting the Wu family's land.
Now he has lost face and wants to eat Wu Niansheng alive.
Wu Nian noticed Li Ding's eyes very keenly. Although he frowned, he also sneered. Let the soldiers come and cover up the water and earth.
What are you afraid of?
Wu Nian quickly left the military camp with Tieniu, Li Yong and others.
After leaving the gate, everyone looked at Wu Nian as if he were a weirdo. If it hadn't been interrupted by the sound of drums, I still don't know how it would have ended.
This is Wu Nian. The biggest advantage on weekdays is that I can drink. Now Niu Tian dared to treat Li Ding like this.
Like a puddle of mud, he actually stood up.
Incredible, incredible.
However, after the shock, he gradually regained his composure. Li Yong, an old man, sighed, shook his head and said:
"You really seem like a different person. But you have to be careful. Li Ding is not broad-minded and will definitely take revenge on you."
"Besides, this is a special period, and he has scruples. On normal days, he would have pulled you out and beat you half to death just now."
"You should think about how to end this."
After saying that, Li Yong reached out and patted Wu Nian's shoulder, sighed and left.
"He is a man. If you need anything, I can help you as much as I can." Tieniu also patted Wu Nian on the shoulder, turned and left.
Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng also surrendered to Wu Nian and left.
Wu Nian also clasped his fists at everyone, and after they left, he sneered and went to his home.
After returning home, Wu Nian took off the iron helmet from his head and held it in his arms. First I went to the kitchen and took a look. There was no porridge left in the morning.
And the dishes and chopsticks were also put away cleanly.
Wu Nian laughed and came to Liu Xiang's bedroom to check.
Liu Xiang was sitting cross-legged on the bed, covered with a tattered quilt, doing needlework in her hands.
She is a hard-working person, and she was never idle in such an environment before. Not only did she do housework at home, but she could also weave to support the family.
Of course, a lot of the money was gambled away by the original owner.
Now I see that Wu Nian has really changed. She is full of vitality from the inside out. As her health gradually improves, she can no longer sit still.
She heard movement and looked up. Seeing Wu Nian walking in fully armed, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
Their Beishan Fort is located relatively far back and has never fought against the Mongolians. But she also heard that many guardsmen fought with the Mongolian people, and ended up losing more than they won, resulting in heavy casualties.
Looking at the days at home, I have hope. Why is there a war?
Liu Xiang wanted to say a few words to Wu Nian, but she didn't know how to speak.
Wu Nian saw her stunned on the bed. Although she didn't speak, her eyes were slightly red. Wu Nian guessed that she was worried about him, and he couldn't help but feel tenderness in his heart.
He originally wanted to step forward and kill Liu Xiang with a slap on the head, but thinking that Liu Xiang still had the sequelae of domestic violence, he did not reach out. He smiled and said: "Xiang'er. Jin Baihu issued a military order. I will go back to the military camp immediately and cannot come out if nothing happens. But don't worry too much. The Meng Yuan people have not yet reached our Beishan Fort."
"You are alone and your illness has not fully recovered. Don't be brave. You can take a break with housework. If you need anything, ask the tiger girl next door to help."
"Besides, you can eat the lotus seeds and venison here as much as you want, and don't be reluctant to part with them."
Wu Nian said naggingly. After he finished speaking, he looked up and saw that Liu Xiang was still dumbfounded and unresponsive.
He wasn't angry, he just hugged his helmet, said something, and turned around and left the room.
"I am leaving."
Liu Xiang seemed unresponsive, but her emotions were actually fluctuating greatly inside.
As long as you are willing, a stone can be heated.
What's more, Liu Xiang is Wu Nian's fiancée.
She is a good girl, but she was beaten severely by the original owner before, and that is what happened later.
Wu Nian jumped into a well to save her, fulfilled his promise and really went hunting, which changed his mind. It was also warm in her heart.
Seeing that Wu Nian said so much, and Wu Nian was going to the military camp, he might really have to fight with the Meng Yuan people.
Liu Xiang didn't dare to go down until Wu Nian was about to leave the house. She mustered up her courage and shouted: "Brother, take care of yourself."
Wu Nian's steps froze, surprised and happy. Then he turned around, made a fist with his right hand, slapped his chest three times, and said, "Don't worry. I'm strong, everything will be fine."
After saying that, Wu Nian turned around and left.
Life at home was about to be prosperous. If it weren't for the military orders, he really wanted to continue living at home.
But there is no way, people in the world cannot help themselves.
"Woooo." Seeing Wu Nian walking away, Liu Xiang hurriedly opened the quilt and chased after him. After arriving at the door, Wu Nian was not seen. Finally, he couldn't help but hold on to the door frame, tears bursting from his eyes, and he was choked with sobs.
After Wu Nian returned to the military camp, he waited for a long time. Only then did Tieniu, Zhang Sheng, Wang Gui, and Li Yong return.
Li Ding, an official, finally came to the main room with his servant Chen Guang and sat down majestically. He looked at Wu Nian proudly.
As if to say.
"Boy, you have fallen into the wolf's den."
