The Northern Expeditionary Army was in Danhan Mountain, and after resting for a day, they began to return to Yanmen.

Before this, Huangfu Song asked the head of the Xianbei army to build a 'Jingguan'. First, to show the military might of the Han army! Second, to deter the Xianbei people in the east and west!

The Northern Expeditionary Army marched from Danhan Mountain, all the way through Daqinggou, Shangyi, Montenegro, Liucheng, Pingcheng, Sangqian, and finally arrived at Yanmen Pass at nightfall on the sixth day.

When the Northern Expeditionary Army saw Yanmen Pass, they cried, shouted, and laughed to vent the long-suppressed emotions in their hearts!

Li Mu looked at the majestic and solemn Yanmen Pass in the dark night, and silently read in his heart, the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Han's "Liangzhou Ci"

Wine Luminous Glass,

If you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately.

Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled,

In ancient times, a few people came back to fight.

……

And the state of Muzhi Village!

At this moment, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and every household has already hung up red lights, celebrating the Lantern Festival lively.

When Yang saw Diao Chan, he sat motionless by the window for almost half an hour.

"Xiu'er, I'm thinking about the country again."

Yang sighed, walked lightly, walked to the side of Diao Chan and sat down, and said softly.

"Mother...... Amudu has ...... It's been four and a half months...... Why haven't we heard from ......?"

Diao Chan glanced at the full moon outside the window and choked up.

Yang took Diao Chan's hand and said softly: "Xiu'er, how can such a thing as a war come as soon as it is said." Perhaps, the battle ahead is tight, and the Han army has not won yet. ”

"Mother...... I really miss Amu...... Why didn't Ah Mu come back to see Xiu'er......"

Diao Chan said with a sob.

Yang raised his hand to hold Diao Chan, and said in a dumb voice: "Xiu'er, when your father was fighting at that time, he was also gone for more than half a year, and sometimes there was no news for a year. Wait a few more days, and maybe there will be news of the country. ”

"Mother, Uncle Zhang went to Yanmen to inquire about the news, is there a result...... Mother, don't lie to Xiu'er...... Is it good ......?"

Diao Chan paused, raised his head to look at Yang, and choked up.

"Xiu'er, listen to your Uncle Zhang, more than ten days ago, the Western Route Army was defeated, saying that the Western Route Army had tens of thousands of people, but only a few hundred people came back."

As soon as Diao Chan's words fell, Yang's body stiffened, and he stopped talking a few more times, and said slowly.

When Zhang Cheng got the news, it was Yang Kan who took the four or five hundred people to transport supplies back to Yanmen Pass.

Zhang Cheng didn't see Yang Kan either, and these news were spread falsely, which naturally became more and more outrageous. This is a real-life example of three people becoming tigers.

"What about Amu...... Uncle Zhang, do you have any news of Amu......"

As soon as Yang's words fell, he saw Diao Chan's face pale, grabbed Yang's arm, and sobbed.

Yang hugged Diao Chan and choked up: "There is no news of the country yet...... Not ...... yet"

Diao Chan finally cried out loud and sobbed, "Mother...... You accompany Xiu'er to Yanmen...... Let's go to Amu...... Is it good ......?"

Seeing Diao Chan so heartbroken, Yang had to comfort: "Xiu'er, let's wait for three more days, if there is no news of the country, we will call Aunt Zhang's family and go to Yanmen together." ”

Diao Chan was already sobbing and speechless, and nodded slightly.

……

Zhongshan Wuji City!

At this time, Zhongshan Wuji City, the whole city is lit up to celebrate the Lantern Festival, which is very lively.

"Mi'er, today is the Lantern Festival, the street is very lively, for a while, let your second brother and third brother take your five sisters out for a walk. My mother heard that this Lantern Festival, girls who have not come out of the pavilion will see the lanterns."

Zhang looked at Zhen Mi listlessly, with a sad face, and said softly.

"Mother, Mi'er doesn't want to go out, the eldest brother has been going to Yanmen for seven or eight days, and he should be back soon."

Zhen Mi glanced at the full moon outside the hall, shook his head, and said.

"It's so late, your eldest brother won't come back, and if he wants to come back, it will have to be tomorrow." Zhang replied.

Zhen Mi shook her head and choked up: "Mother, how can Mi'er have the heart to go out to play...... Ah Mu has not heard from him for four and a half months, will Ah Mu be..."

"Little sister, good news...... Good news! ”

As soon as Zhen Mi's words fell, only one voice was heard.

I saw that Zhen Yu had already shouted before he entered the hall.

Zhen Mi stood up violently, ran to Zhen Yu's side quickly, grabbed Zhen Yu's clothes with both hands, and said excitedly: "Big brother, tell me quickly, is there news from Amu?" ”

Zhen Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Little sister, five days ago, I had a relationship in Yanmen City, and I heard from a Yang Lieutenant who had returned from the fortress that Dingguo not only became the commander, but also led the Western Route Army to defeat the Xianbei Army. ”

Subsequently, Zhen Yu told Li Mu how to defeat the Xianbei army in Qingshui River and how to defeat the Xianbei army again near Shanwu to everyone present.

Zhen Mi cried and laughed and asked, "Ah Mu won the battle, Ah Mu won." Big brother, have you ever inquired about when Ah Mu will come back. ”

Zhen Yu took a sip of tea and said, "This Captain Yang didn't say it, by the way, Captain Yang said that when he was about to return to Yanmen, Dingguo led the Western Route Army to attack the Xianbei Army in the clouds." Little sister, don't worry, since Dingguo can defeat the Xianbei Army twice, it will definitely be fine. ”

Zhen Mi nodded and said softly, "Mi'er believes that Ah Mu will be fine." ”

……

That night, Huangfu Song ordered the army to be stationed at Yanmen Pass.

Just when Huangfu Song set up a banquet to invite Li Mu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and several other captains to dinner.

The guards at the gate came to report that an envoy from the imperial court had arrived. Huangfu Song, Li Mu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao and others hurriedly went out to greet them.

It turned out that on the day of the end of the Battle of Danhan Mountain, Huangfu Song sent someone to report the results of the operation to the imperial court in an expedited manner of 600 miles.

Seeing that the Han army broke through Xianbei and captured a lot of money, the imperial court sent an envoy to convey the will of the imperial court.

Huangfu Song, Li Mu and his entourage naturally greeted the imperial envoy in a grand way.

The envoy of the imperial court conveyed the will of the imperial court: the edict ordered Huangfu Song and Li Mu to rush to Luoyang in the starry night and enter Beijing to face the saint.

Seeing that it was getting late, the imperial envoy asked Huangfu Song and Li Mu not to leave tonight, and to go to Luoyang with him tomorrow.

After entertaining the envoys of the imperial court, Li Mu called Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao to his big tent.

Li Mu handed over the gifts he brought to Diao Chan, Zhen Mi and others to Zhao Yun, and asked Zhao Yun to return to Changshan, by the way, he handed these things to Diao Chan and Zhen Mi, and reported that the two of them were safe.

The feelings of the three Li Mu brothers became deeper and deeper during the period of fighting out of the fortress. Thinking that they were about to separate, the three brothers were naturally very reluctant, and the three of them talked about it at night, and then they got up to rest.

The next day, Li Mu said goodbye to Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, and went to Luoyang with Huangfu Song and the imperial envoy.

Li Mu said silently in his heart: Luoyang, the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty! I, Li Mu, are here!
