my wife is mulan

At the foot of Tianwang Mountain, Guo Sheng rode on horseback and said to Hua Mulan, "This mountain has no name. Back then, Feng Ba, the Heavenly King of Northern Yan, led an army to attack Kumoxi. He fought all the way here and used this mountain as a camp. Therefore, it was named Tianwang Mountain, and the veteran followed Feng Ba at that time!"

Soon, Fu Zhan brought the remnant soldiers down from Tianwang Mountain with a guilty face.

"General, the last general is ashamed, he underestimated the enemy and fell into the treacherous scheme of the Mukun tribe!"

Chapter 612 The death penalty can be avoided

Hua Mulan only glanced at Fu Zhan, turned her head and gave Li Bao an order: "Take three thousand flying troops, two thousand Shenwu troops and one thousand Longxiang troops to pursue the Mukun tribe, and block all the roads going down the mountain after they enter the mountain." , Trapped them completely on the mountain and couldn’t move!”

"Obey!" Li Bao clasped his fists in agreement, turned around and left, mobilized his soldiers and horses, and quickly chased after the retreating Mukun tribe.

Seeing Li Bao leaving with 6000 troops, Hua Mulan turned around and looked at Fu Zhan.

"What did the general tell you before? You fought very well in the first two battles, why did you go up in the sky after two battles?"

Fu Zhan knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty: "The last general is guilty of death, the general beheaded the last general!"

Hua Mulan was silent for a few seconds and asked, "How many troops are left?"

"...One thousand... More than one thousand and six hundred people" Fu Zhan had to say an unacceptable number.

Hua Mulan couldn't help ridiculing: "That means you lost half of your troops in this battle?"

His tone changed suddenly, and he said angrily: "Come on, drag it down, cut it off!"

A few soldiers rushed up to hold Fu Zhan and was about to drag him away, Cui Hao quickly stood up to dissuade him: "Wait a minute!"

Several soldiers supporting Fu Zhan stopped to look at Hua Mulan, and saw Cui Hao clasped his fists at Hua Mulan and said: "General, people are not sages, who can do nothing? People will inevitably make mistakes. General Fu also stood up before. He has made great contributions, which shows that he still has general talent. It would be a pity to kill him like this. General Fu was cultivated and supported by the prince and the general. He spent a lot of energy. It is not easy for him to have what he is today. Why not give him the general This is a chance to correct, I believe he will grow up after this incident, please think twice!"

When other officials and generals around saw Cui Hao pleading, they also pleaded one after another. It is inevitable for a general in command to lose a battle, and if he loses one battle, he will be beheaded.

Hua Mulan heard that many people present pleaded for mercy, so she went down the donkey and said to Fu Zhan: "If you lose in intelligence and command ability, this general will never punish you. After all, human intelligence is limited, but you The defeat this time was not due to command and intelligence, but to carelessness. If you are not careless, how can the Mukun Department have a chance to succeed in a sneak attack? Seeing that so many people are pleading for you, this general I will give you one chance, and the next time you lose due to carelessness, this general will definitely kill you! But don’t be too happy, this general only said that he would not kill you, and did not say that he would not punish you! More than [-] comrades Pao died on the battlefield because of your carelessness, and you have to be responsible for their deaths! You defeated the Shidebu and Qijiabu twice before, and you should be rewarded accordingly according to the rules, but don’t think about it now, you The rewards received twice must be converted into pensions for their families, and the insufficient part will be deducted from your future salary. Are you convinced that you will be punished like this?"

Fu Zhan didn't complain at all. To have such a punishment result, he was already Amitabha, and he promised repeatedly: "The final general will be convinced!"

Hua Mulan stretched out her hand and beckoned a general to order: "Take someone to retrieve all the scattered horses under Fu Zhan's command!"

"Follow the order!"

Only then did Hua Mulan wave her hand to Fu Zhan: "Okay, take the rest of the soldiers and generals to the military supply and logistics side to get some food to fill your stomach, and set up the camp as soon as possible!"

"Yes, the last general will leave!" Fu Zhan took the dejected remnants of the defeated generals to ask for food to fill their stomachs.

Hua Xiong, Liang Yi and Wei Jing planned to sneak away among the crowd, but Hua Mulan found out, and said softly, "You three, get out of here!"

The three of them stopped, and Hua Xiong whispered to Liang Yi and Wei Jing, "It's a disaster, it's a disaster! What should I do? I think this time I won't die, but I'll have to shed a layer of skin."

"It's a blessing, not a curse. A disaster can't be avoided! Little uncle, let's face the reality bravely!" Wei Jing was the youngest, but acted like an adult.

Hua Xiong turned to look at him: "Will you blame me? If I hadn't forced you to come here, you wouldn't have left a bad impression in my sister's eyes!"

Wei Jing said: "Is it useful to regret now? There is no regret medicine in this world. What kind of person I am, the godmother knows best, you still

Worry about yourself! "

Liang Yi also said: "I think what Wei Jing said makes sense. He and I are both honest people. If we hadn't been framed by you, how could we have made such a mistake? You should just ask yourself!"

Liang Yi and Wei Jing walked towards Hua Mulan together, Hua Xiong saw it and had to follow behind them with a sad face.

"Meet the general, this subordinate knows his mistake, and is willing to accept punishment!" In the army, Liang Yi and Wei Jing could only match each other by their positions.

Hua Xiong drooped his head: "Sister, I was wrong!"

Hua Mulan was furious: "Who is your eldest sister? There are only superiors and subordinates in the army, and no relatives. Next time if I hear you call me eldest sister in the army, you will go back and stay by A Niang's side!"

"Yes... General!"

Hua Mulan pointed to Liang Yi and Wei Jing: "You two go to the military judge and get twenty army sticks each!"

"Yes!" Liang Yi and Wei Jing hurriedly agreed, and quickly turned to leave.

Hua Mulan pointed at Hua Xiong again: "You don't have to laugh with me, you beat me with twenty military sticks, and you're locked up in a small dark room for three days!"

Hua Xiong immediately shouted: "It's okay to hit the army stick, but don't lock the small black room, I will go crazy!"

"Four days!"

"I won't do it!" Hua Xiong shouted again.

Hua Mulan said coldly: "Five days! Someone, drag him down and hand him over to the military judge to beat me hard. If the blow is mild, I will dismiss him from his post!"

Hua Xiong shouted when he heard this: "You are so cruel, I am your own younger brother, locked in a small dark room for five days, you are killing me!"

Hua Mulan didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, this kid is too oily, if you don't treat him properly, he will go to heaven!

After the camp was set up, Hua Mulan sent someone to invite Guo Sheng to the tooth tent and said, "Old general, after much deliberation, we still have to send someone to find out where the Mukun tribe is hiding. We only need to find out where they are. It will be much easier for us to take military action and the possibility of success will be greatly increased, but it will take too long and the logistical burden will be too great to be close to such a blockade, what do you think?"

Guo Sheng thought for a while after hearing this, and asked aloud: "If someone is sent into the mountain to investigate, how can we guarantee that the scout will be alive and bring back the news? This deep mountain and old forest is not any other place. It is easy for people who are not familiar with the terrain to go in. Lost, if found by the Kumoxi people, it will be difficult to escape, if they are dead, how can we get the news and make corresponding countermeasures in time?"

Hua Mulan didn't know what to do when she heard these questions from Guo Sheng, "It seems that I took it for granted and was too anxious."

Guo Sheng raised his hand and said: "No, the old minister thinks the general's idea is good. The old minister will make some supplements, and the general will listen to see if it works. That's right. The old minister thinks that sending people into the mountains to investigate the hiding place of the Mukun tribe The train of thought is correct, the idea of ​​the veteran is to follow the scouts with a soldier, and the distance between the two is a meal, and the soldiers behind will follow the marks left by the scouts along the way. It is found that the mark is destroyed or there is no mark at all, which means that they have arrived near the hiding place of the Mukun tribe and have entered their warning zone!"

Hua Mulan's eyes gradually brightened when she heard it, and when Guo Sheng finished speaking, she said happily, "The words of the old general made Mulan suddenly enlightened, and the general is indeed old!"

Guo Sheng smiled and said modestly: "The general is absurd!"

"Come on, call the leader of the scout team!"

The next day, Hua Mulan sent someone to call Fu Zhan over.

"I don't know what the general ordered the last general to come over?" Fu Zhan asked after cupping his fists in salute.

Hua Mulan said: "Old General Guo and I discussed it, and decided to send scouts into the mountains to set up Mukun's hiding place, and then hang a group of soldiers behind them for a meal, and they will also be in this building. There are two thousand soldiers hanging behind the soldiers for a meal, no matter how big this deep mountain and old forest is, there is a limit, and when the search is over, they will definitely be able to find out their hiding place!"

"The general will give you 5000 infantry, and you will take these [-] people to join Yuchi Yandong, and use this method to go into the mountains to search for A Hui's hiding place. Once you find it, you will wipe it out in one fell swoop. Do you have confidence?

? ”

Fu Zhan immediately straightened his body and replied loudly: "Finished the task assigned by the general resolutely!"

"Very good, you take two thousand Feixiong troops and three thousand Shenwu troops with you!"

"Farewell at the end!"

After Fu Zhan led the people away, Hua Mulan also organized troops to go into the mountains to suppress them. The scouts were ready, and Hua Mulan planned to lead the team herself. After all, there were only 2000 people, and no matter how many people there were, they would not be able to perform in the mountains. Come on, with such a small number of people, she doesn't feel relieved to let other people lead the team.

But Hua Mulan's idea was unanimously opposed by other generals and officials, and everyone disagreed that she, the chief general, would lead the team in person.
