"drive!"
"drive!"
A group of flying cavalry rode up quickly and came to the temporary tent. They dismounted and bowed respectfully to Huo Qubing: "General Huo, General Lu, please send a logistics transport team to escort the food and grass!"
"Um!"
Huo Qubing nodded slightly and said calmly: "General Xu, take the people there yourself!"
"promise!"
Xu Chu cupped his hands, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, and immediately led three thousand troops out. Ning Fan heard the movement outside, and walked out of the tent with Mu Qingcheng.
"What happened?"
"My lord, General Lu Bu has intercepted a batch of supplies and food!"
"oh!"
Ning Fan nodded and heard the sound of horse hooves. He looked around and saw white shadows moving through the night. Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "It's the white-robed army!"
"Lord!"
Chen Qingzhi led the white-robed army back to the camp, dismounted from his horse, slightly cupped his hands and said: "The collection of food and grass has been completed. There are more than 5,000 cattle and sheep, and more than 200,000 stones of food and grass!"
Seeing that the blood on Chen Qingzhi's body was still wet, Ning Fan nodded with a smile and ordered: "Go down and kill the cattle and sheep, let the soldiers eat and drink well, and rest here for the night!"
"promise!"
"After the generals come back, discuss matters in the big tent!"
After Ning Fan gave the order, he rushed into the tent again. Mu Qingcheng's royal guards protected the entire tent. Not long after, a strange sound came from the tent.
"You bastard... I will kill you!"
"Your Majesty...misunderstanding..."
"A gentleman moves his hands but never speaks...that's not right..."
"What the hell?"
"Is this king fighting back?"
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Loud slaps came from the camp. Dian Wei's eyes widened and an evil smile appeared on his lips. He didn't expect that the lord was even more fierce than Cao Gong!
"His Majesty?"
"No one can enter the account without my order. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
A voice of embarrassment came from the camp, and a group of guards withdrew a few feet, claiming to be their own eyes and ears.
…
Early the next morning.
Ning Fan woke up from the tent and felt the softness in his arms. He couldn't help but look startled?
Did he sleep with the empress?
No, Her Majesty the Empress seemed to have made a bunk on the ground last night. Why did she appear on the bed so early in the morning?
"Hey!"
Mu Qingcheng groaned, rolled over, and twisted his head on Ning Fan's arm, seeming to find a more comfortable position without any intention of waking up.
"Lord!"
"It's time to march."
A rough voice came from outside the tent, directly waking up Mu Qingcheng who was sleeping in a deep sleep. Feeling a warm embrace wrap around him, Mu Qingcheng opened his eyes in a daze!
"you……"
Mu Qingcheng seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly opened his eyes. Seeing that he was lying in Ning Fan's arms, his face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and he looked at him with cold eyes.
"What did you do to me?"
"Your Majesty!" Ning Fan was speechless: "It was obviously you who climbed into bed in the middle of the night while I was sleeping, so don't slander me."
"Asshole!"
"Don't move!" Ning Fan looked solemn and lowered his voice: "Your Majesty, your bodyguards are all outside the tent. You don't want them to know that you climbed into my bed in the middle of the night, right?"
Mu Qingcheng took a deep breath, glared at him fiercely, and gradually calmed down: "Change my clothes."
…
"It's time to eat!"
"Enough meat tube, come on, come on..."
Early in the morning, a strong smell of meat spread throughout the tents. Ning Fan and Mu Qingcheng walked out of the tent together, with a blush on their faces. She slept alone with this deceitful man last night!
Although nothing was done, but...
"Why is there meat so early in the morning?"
Mu Qingcheng looked at the large pieces of meat in the bowls of the soldiers and couldn't help but look stunned. Is the food of Dayu's army so arrogant?
Start eating meat early in the morning?
"Back to Your Majesty, last night the generals borrowed a lot of food, grass, cattle and sheep from the southern barbarians. General Huo said that it would be inconvenient to march with the cattle and sheep, so he ordered that the meat be consumed as much as possible or made into dried meat!"
After Guo Jia explained with a smile, he looked at Ning Fan and said, "My lord, we have gathered all the food and supplies for this southern expedition, and we can march at full speed."
"inappropriate!"
Ning Fan shook his head and said thoughtfully: "Now that we have just entered the grassland, we have brought so much food and baggage with us, which may affect our march."
"Send an order for the soldiers to carry three days' rations, and the rest of the cattle, sheep, grain and grass to be transported back to the fortress."
"Let Ran Min and the others make more trips to various tribes to borrow more food and grass."
"Or just borrow it from Man King City. Anyway, we are all old acquaintances!"
"Hehe!" Dian Wei chuckled, stepped forward and said with a grin: "My lord, all the generals have been running around all night, why not let me and Yun Chang go!"
"There's no rush yet."
Ning Fan said with a smile: "Let's eat first and burn some incense, then summon all the generals to discuss matters."
"promise!"
Mu Qingcheng looked at the temporary sheep pen surrounded by horse-drawn carriages not far away, with herds of cattle and sheep and mountains of grain and grass, and couldn't help but look dazed.
So greedy!
I didn't expect these barbarians to be so rich. This way of making money is really a huge profit!
Why don't you let your own soldiers and horses come to the grassland instead?
"See my lord!"
In the big tent, all the generals gathered together. Ning Fan and Mu Qingcheng were sitting at the top, regardless of priority.
Below, Huo Qubing, Lu Bu, Ran Min, Yang Zaixing and other generals stand in awe.
"General Huo, now that our army has entered the grassland, have you made a military plan?"
"Return to my lord!"
Huo Qubing bowed his hands and said softly: "Last night, the generals discussed with General Qin and General Ran. On the grassland, barbarians gathered. If my army of 100,000 marches, I am afraid that it will cause the siege of the southern barbarians."
"So, the general is going to send a vanguard army straight into Guanshan!"
Ning Fan nodded in agreement. In this southern expedition, he was in charge of the central army, but it was Huo Qubing who really gave the orders. Although the champion had no experience in large-scale combat in his previous life, this glorious record and his reputation among future generals The fame is there.
It is no exaggeration to say that all the generals present are basically fans of this guy.
With Qin Qiong, Ran Min and other veterans assisting him, even if Huo Qubing had no experience in large-scale combat, he would never make any strategic mistakes.
"My lord, our white-robed army is good at attacking and fighting. The last general is willing to be the vanguard and open the way for the army!"
Chen Qingzhi was the first to go out. He was the vanguard general conferred by Ning Fan. It was natural for him to ask for a battle at this time.
"Lord, although our beggar army is infantry, they are also good at blitz combat. I will be the last to ask for a battle!"
"My lord, my Bingzhou wolf cavalry can travel five hundred miles in a day, and I will ask for a battle at the end of the day!"
When Lu Bu, Ran Min and other generals saw Chen Qingzhi coming out, they also stepped forward to ask for a fight. Ning Fan also showed a wry smile. One vanguard army was enough.
