Huawan really doesn't like the lieutenant in this camp.
It's not that this deputy general is not good to him. On the contrary, Huawan has to admit that this deputy general really cares about him and will satisfy him immediately if he has any request.
Except for one thing - meeting General Guan.
As soon as he mentioned this matter, Deputy General Deng tried to evade it in every possible way.
At one moment he said that General Guan was busy with military affairs, and at another he said that General Guan was out of camp for inspection. In the end, he really had nothing to say. He even said that General Guan had been feeling unwell and had a bad temper recently. It was best not to offend him during this period.
Listen, is this what a lieutenant general should say? He is your commander-in-chief. How can you speak ill of the commander-in-chief secretly? ! !
So Hua Wan doesn't like Deng Ai, really.
And, to be honest, Hua Wan wanted to see Guan Yinping, not entirely because he was tempted. Hua Wan admitted that General Guan was indeed different from the young man from Nanzhong he had seen before. He was handsome and full of charm.
But Hua Wan is not a lover. She is so stupid that she can't walk when she sees a handsome guy.
Huawan wanted to see Guan Yinping, but she thought Guan Yinping was the general of the Han army, and wanted to help her parents solve their problem by persuading Guan Yinping to withdraw from the army.
After all, in Hua Wan's view, a Han general who could lead thousands of people must be the Han leader of this Nanzhong crusade.
The total number of soldiers in their Zhurong tribe is only more than 2,000.
Huawan really doesn’t understand. Han people have Han people’s land, and Yi people have Yi people’s place. Isn’t it good for each of them to live separately? Why do they have to disturb each other? !
The little girl is relatively simple. After all, she is young and is well protected by Mrs. Zhu Rong. She has not yet been exposed to the complex and dark side of the human heart.
Another reason is that Mrs. Zhu Rong probably feels that she can still work for a few more years, so there is no need to let her daughter take over so early. She has not had time to teach her these things.
So Hua Wan just naively believed that as long as he persuaded General Guan, the Han people could retreat and live their lives without disturbing each other.
But Deng Ai really didn't expect that this little girl could think so innocently.
At first, Hua Wan was not allowed to see Guan Yinping, just because of the master's instructions. Of course, it also had something to do with his wife's arrogance.
Instead of being a pioneer officer, he was stationed on the spot. Recently, Guan Yinping let himself go every day, riding horses and hunting near the station every day. He was having so much fun that he almost forgot about Huawan.
But later, Hua Wan really didn't want to argue with Deng Ai anymore, so she told Deng Ai her thoughts directly, hoping that Deng Ai could convey her thoughts to Guan Yinping, sit down seriously, and talk to her. Deng Ai was even more afraid.
It is indeed very rare to find such an innocent and innocent girl these days. Deng Ai has not believed that people can live in unconditional harmony since he was twelve years old.
After all, his relatives may force him and his mother for profit, let alone outsiders who have nothing to do with them.
Therefore, Deng Ai suddenly had an idea. It was not easy for this little girl to live so long. It would be better to protect her.
Anyway, she will not be allowed to meet Guan Yinping at all costs, and she will try hard to maintain her image of Guan Yinping in her heart. Just wait until she is returned to her parents in the future and let her parents continue to protect her.
Then... Guan Yinping felt that something was wrong.
My husband hasn't been telling me recently about not doing his job and going out to ride horses. What's the point of running into a small tent as soon as he's done with his official duties? !
Although Guan Yinping prefers to wield swords and fight in battle, it does not mean that Guan Yinping will not be jealous.
Thinking about it again, that little girl, although her skin is a bit darker, is indeed quite beautiful, and her temperament and style are different from mine. She has an alien style. Even if I look at it myself, I have to admit that she is full of Charming girl.
So, my cat is not going to steal food, right? !
Is it okay for you to be newlyweds and have sex so soon? !
Or is your charm not enough and your husband is tired of it? !
Guan Yinping gritted her teeth, but finally decided to have a good talk with her husband.
People of this era, with their thoughts, do not have the consciousness of so many modern women.
Of course Guan Yinping would not be happy if her husband cheated on her, but Guan Yinping would not catch the cheater directly. Instead, she would first ask her husband what he meant.
If you really like that barbarian girl, then it's not impossible to take her into your house as a concubine, but according to the rules, you, the principal mother of the house, must agree.
But if your husband refuses to admit it and avoids her to steal sex, then don't blame yourself for being rude.
According to the moral values and laws of this era, as long as she disagrees, that woman will never be able to enter the Deng family.
But after listening to Guan Yinping's words, Deng Ai suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
Who is it? Why did you steal something? !
Even if it is, it is because they are interested in you as "General Guan", not me.
Then Deng Ai told Guan Yinping about Hua Wan's simple thoughts. Now even Guan Yinping was confused.
Are there really such simple people in this world? !
Guan Yinping thought about it and secretly said to Deng Ai, "Husband, how about releasing him back?!"
Guan Yinping couldn't bear to let such an innocent girl continue to be a prisoner.
But Deng Ai can't help it. This is a military camp. Do you think you are at home? !
"The army has its own laws, how can we choose them?!" Deng Ai had no choice but to reject his wife's idea.
If this matter is not reported, it will be easier for us to decide whether to kill or let go. It can be decided by the two of us.
But since they have already reported it, it is not something the two of them can decide.
If Master asks later, where is the Huawan people? !
What do we say? !
Did you say it slipped away accidentally? !
Besides, who knows if the master is going to use this innocent little girl to do something. If he really lets her go, what if something big goes wrong? !
Besides, Deng Ai felt that the master was definitely going to cause trouble with this little girl.
The reason is very simple. The little girl has been detained in the army for seven or eight days. The little girl's parents have never been seen asking for help, and the master has not seen any further actions.
It's strange that this is normal.
In fact, Meng Huo and his wife are indeed fighting against Zhang Xi and Li Hui's army.
"Despicable general, please return my young master as soon as possible!"
In front of the formation of the two armies, a fierce general of the Yi people, leading more than 500 people, was shouting and cursing in front of the formation.
But Meng Huo and Mrs. Zhu Rong were sitting in the middle of the army, muttering quietly.
"Is this the fifth elder's confidant?!"
"Well, the more than 500 people under his command are quite good at fighting. The fifth elder relies on his power and has never submitted to my control."
"Hmph, people who want to die don't know how high the sky is."
"Husband, is your daughter really fine?! Can the Han people really be trusted?!"
"Don't worry, the Commander-in-Chief is only interested in important matters and will not embarrass Wan'er. Moreover, the military camp Wan'er is in is a disciple of the Commander-in-Chief. There's no telling how he can do good things!"
"That's not possible. If Wan'er marries a Han, how can the Han people allow Wan'er to stay in Nanzhong? If Wan'er goes, what will happen to our clan?"
"Madam, we can discuss this later. Look, that person is defeated!"
"."
In the formation of the two armies, the Yi generals were rushed and killed by Zhang Yi, and returned defeated.
When Mrs. Zhu Rong saw this, she did not fight, and immediately ordered her people to retreat, leaving only the fifth elders to take charge of the rear.
Zhang Yi took advantage of the situation to cover up the attack and killed hundreds of enemies. Zhang Xi watched Meng Huo and others retreat and was afraid that Zhang Yi would really catch up. He quickly ordered Zhang Yi to return to the army, and then slowly followed up, continuing to follow Meng Huo and his wife.
Meng Huo and his wife withdrew their troops and prepared to flee back to their hometown. However, they found that their hometown had been "occupied" by Wang Ping's army that had detoured through the mountains. They had to abandon the tribe and retreat again to the barbarians next door. Take shelter temporarily at the main place of the man cave.
Zhang Xi led his troops into the Zhurong tribe's lair, surrendered the Yi tribesmen, and temporarily resettled them. After the war was over, he discussed the way out for these people with Meng Huo, Li Hui and others.
After that, Meng Huo and his wife began to lead the way with thousands of soldiers.
Wherever the couple took refuge, the cave master would be in trouble. Along the way, the number of Yi soldiers led by Meng Huo was increasing, but the number of cave masters along the way was getting smaller and smaller.
Until the time when Meng Huo and his wife took more than 20,000 soldiers to seek refuge with Yang Feng, the last big cave master in Nanzhong, Yang Feng really did not dare to provoke these two scourges, and at the same time he also wanted to join the Han people.
Therefore, Yang Feng secretly sent someone to contact Zhang Xi who was following the two of them, expressed his intention to join them, and then pretended to accept Meng Huo and his wife. After a banquet, he called out his personal guards to tie up the couple. , sent to Zhang Xi.
And Zhang Xi was dumbfounded. She really didn't expect that Yang Feng would actually do this, but there was nothing he could do. He had to do a full set of acting, and Yang Feng couldn't let Yang Feng discover the trick, otherwise Meng Huo would really not be able to gain a foothold in Nanzhong in the future.
So Zhang Xi had to surrender Meng Huo, and then asked privately if there were any other hidden powerful Yiren Cave Masters? !
After Meng Huo thought about it again and again, he said that Nanzhong was gone, but there seemed to be a barbarian tribe in Yongchang County called the Baima tribe.
That tribe seems to be quite good at raising horses.
Zhang Xi suddenly felt energetic.
Yunnan horse. That is a good thing.
Although the Yunnan horse is not the most suitable cavalry horse because of its short size, before Liu Bei's group took Liangzhou, it was not available in any cavalry unit.
Liu Bei didn't like Ma Chao, but he had to use Ma Chao. In addition to letting Ma Chao guard the northern part of Yizhou and defend the Xiqiang, wasn't it because Ma Chao had channels to get war horses.
Although these Yunnan horses are not the most suitable war horses, they are still horses after all, and they are better than nothing.
Moreover, the Yunnan horse has outstanding endurance and is the most suitable transportation animal. Whether it is used to transport grain and grass or as a means of transportation, it is a very good choice.
Originally, Zhang Xi was still thinking about how to transport the copper ore in Jianning County after it was mined. The terrain in Nanzhong was complex and there were mountain roads everywhere.
Taking the waterway is the most convenient way of transportation, but the waterways in Nanzhong are relatively scattered, and there are always some gaps between them. Most of these gaps are surrounded by mountains.
These mountain roads are difficult to walk, which means that even if the copper mine in Nanzhong is mined, transportation will be a big problem.
But... isn't there a Yunnan horse?
Yunnan horses are horses that can even travel on steep mountain roads like the Tea Horse Road. They are simply the most suitable means of transportation in Nanzhong.
Zhang Xi thought, this Yunnan horse must be controlled, so the White Horse tribe must also find a way to conquer it.
Especially when Zhang Xi heard that the clan leader of the White Horse Tribe was called King Mulu, he must have known about it, and he was very sure of it.
