Xue Shao was about to be a teacher, and returned to the dynasty with a group of Turkic captives such as Mo Jianlian.

The black sand is still a mess here, and the follow-up finishing work is handed over to Xue Ne. Wang Yu and Li Xianyuan both stayed in accordance with Xue Shao's earlier arrangement, and temporarily served as an adjutant under Xue Ne to deal with the aftermath of Heisha. Ai Yan's mother and son will also stay here for the time being, and wait for the internal situation in the grassland to stabilize before deciding where to go.

As for Xue Linyu, Xue Shao insisted on keeping him by Xue Ne's side despite the opposition of others and continued to study in the army. Many people don't understand this intention, Xue Shao only confessed to Xue Ne in private, saying that it is dangerous for me to return to Beijing on this trip. In case something happens to me, I'll entrust you with Linyu.

The word "entrustment" can be light or heavy, and Xue Ne understands its meaning. To put it mildly, Xue Shao is disciplining his son. To put it more seriously, it may be related to the fate of the entire Hedong Xue clan.

The analogy that all eggs can't fit in the same basket is a bit inappropriate, but that's pretty much what it means.

Xue Shao took away half of the existing men and horses in Black Sand City, about thirty or forty thousand people. At the beginning of the war, there were about 200,000 people in the city, including the people. Now with the addition of some prisoners of war, it is less than 80,000. A large number of wounded soldiers could not move and could only stay in Black Sand to continue their recuperation. Even generals of the level of Xue Shao and Xue Chuyu were wounded, so the army that returned to the division sent a lot of carriages.

When we were leaving, many people came to see each other off.

Xue Shao said goodbye to Xue Ne and others one by one, and of course they had to say a few words to their two sons.

Xue Linyu and Xue Shenying stood side by side, Xue Shao looked at the two of them and felt very interesting, feeling that the two of them had inherited their own life personalities. Xue Shenying advocates force, is not informal, and attaches great importance to righteousness, much like when he was in his previous life. Xue Linyu was greatly influenced by his mother, Princess Taiping, and was closer to his current personality in life.

"Xue Linyu, what I want to tell you is to continue to forget your identity and origin, and forget everything that happened before. Just remember that you are an ordinary soldier in the Black Sands," Xue Shao said, "so obeying military orders is your first priority." Do you understand? ”

"Understood. Father rest assured. Xue Linyu agreed very simply, but his face was embarrassed, and he seemed to have something to say.

"If you have something to say, you can talk about it."

"Father......" Xue Linyu said cautiously, "Recently, I heard that the DPRK and China seem to be ......"

"That's not something you should care about." Xue Shaozheng scolded, "I just warned you, forgot?" ”

"I'm just worried about the safety of my father and mother, as well as my younger siblings and aunt......s at home," Xue Linyu whispered.

"Have faith in your father." Xue Shao stepped forward and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "I know, you must be missing your mother." When I return to Beijing, I will ask your mother to write you a letter. After four years of service, you will be allowed to return home. So, can it be considered reassuring? ”

Xue Linyu nodded seriously, and tears reached the edge of his eyes.

Xue Shao wanted to reprimand him a few words, but when he thought about it, although he had already led the army to destroy the country, he was only a teenager after all. It's the first time I've been away from home for so long in my life, and now I'm leaving my father again...... It's human nature.

So Xue Shao pretended not to see it and walked in front of Xue Shenying.

Those who eat meat and drink milk grow fast, and this bastard is taller than me...... Xue Shao had to look up at him with a slight tilt and said, "You look like such a stupid big man, don't forget to have a brain." ”

"How could it ......!" Xue Shenying smiled, "Dad, you can go with confidence, I will take care of my mother and younger brother." ”

"You're in such a hurry to urge me to go?" Xue Shao said angrily, "The little thing you hid in the tent, think I don't know?" ”

"Uh...... This, this! Xue Shenying suddenly panicked, hurriedly bowed down, and whispered: "Dad, isn't it also the child's duty to spread the branches and leaves for the Xue family?" ”

"Shut up, you bastard!" Xue Shao was really angry, he wanted to give him a profound education on etiquette, righteousness and honesty, but when he thought that he was not the famous son of Lantian at the beginning, he felt a little lacking in confidence......

After pondering for a moment with hatred, Xue Shao said: "Lao Tzu, no matter how you play, the royal law of the Great Zhou is always in mind." If you commit a crime, Lao Tzu will kill you with his own hands! ”

"Yes, yes, the child will go find a book of laws of Da Zhou and study it hard." Xue Shenying bent his waist lower, only promised, very dog-legged.

"Here we go again...... the corners of Xue Shao's mouth twitched, thinking that he also grew up in the grassland, and the set in the Central Plains may not be suitable for him, so let's teach it slowly in the future!

So with a sigh, Xue Shao threw down four words, "Honor your mother." ”

"Yes, father." Xue Shenying replied very seriously this time.

Xue Shao shook his head angrily and funny, boarded the carriage, and led the army away amid the greetings of the generals.

"Oh my God, it's finally gone!" Xue Shenying wiped a handful of non-existent sweat on his forehead, and smirked.

Xue Linyu was angry, "Is it that funny?" ”

"Ouch, the prince is starting to play prestige?" Xue Shenying grinned, and put an arm on his shoulder, "Don't be so serious, we're brothers." ”

"Now you will recognize me as a brother?" Xue Linyu frowned.

"Didn't I just beat you up and make you a prisoner? Men and husbands, don't be so stingy! Xue Shen smiled, "Friends don't know each other, let alone brothers?" ”

"Then you should also respect your father." Xue Linyu is colored.

"My respect comes from the bottom of my heart." Xue Shenying said seriously, "The men of the grassland have always respected warriors and heroes. To be honest, when I didn't know he was my father, I longed for a father like him. Do you believe that? ”

Xue Linyu nodded, "I believe it." ”

"Hey, you're so good at cheating, boring!" Xue Shenying smiled.

"Get out of here!" Xue Linyu shook his arm away and strode forward.

"Haha, I'm kidding you!" Xue Shenying chased after him, still putting his hand on his shoulder, "Actually, I respect you a lot." You're good, you're really good. You can actually destroy the Khitan in one go, I am very convinced. Do you believe that? ”

"Get out!"

"Hey, hey, don't go!" Xue Shenying chased after him again, and then hugged his shoulders again, "You gave me a jade pendant, I have to give you a gift!" ”

Xue Linyu stopped, "What gift?" ”

"Hey, good stuff!" Xue Shenying dragged him and ran, "Come to my tent and you'll know!" ”

"Don't go!" Xue Linyu hurriedly stopped, "Father knows, he will kill me!" ”

"Really?" Xue Shenying looked at him playfully, "You are the son of the son of the son of Lantian Gongzi." ”

"I'm not going." Xue Linyu was serious, "I am the son of Xue Taiwei!" ”

Xue Shenying smiled and threw him a necklace, "Then give this one to you!" ”

"Wolf tooth necklace?" Of course, Xue Linyu is knowledgeable.

"To be exact, the Wolf King Necklace. The most powerful wolf pack on the grassland in the past thirty years was made with the teeth of that wolf king. Xue Shenying said, "This is a symbol of supreme glory on the grassland, and only the most outstanding warriors who are recognized as worthy of wearing it have always been qualified." Once it belonged to Mosi, then it belonged to me. Now, it's yours! ”

"You think I'm entitled to wear it?" Xue Linyu looked at him strangely.

"I'll put it on for you, there's a lot of nonsense." Xue Shenying patted his ass and left, "I'm going to open up the branches and leaves for the Xue family, you go back to be your pawn!" ”

"Hey!" Xue Linyu hurriedly shouted, "The men of the Xue family want to marry a wife, but they can't be so simple and casual!" ”

"Are you stupid for me? Before meeting your mother, Princess Taiping, my father didn't get married, but did he lack a woman? Our brothers are so handsome, how can we embarrass our father? ”

"Hey, it seems to make sense......

"If you want to come, hurry up!"

"Don't go! I can't let you spoil me...... Hey, you, you, you go! ”

"Come on, little virgin! The elder brother takes the younger brother, and it is natural and righteous! ”

……

On the rickety carriage, Xue Shao was lying on several layers of thick leather mattress, and the wounds on his body were still faintly painful.

He laughed again as he felt pain.

"Fuck, I think I'm still a little bit short of forty years old, I'm afraid I'm going to be a grandfather!"

"That little bastard of the Condor, the one who got out alive is the second Lantian boy. Don't take Linyu with you, it's really sad! But I don't have the face to teach them a lesson, you can't just allow the governor to set fire and not allow the people to light the lamp, right? Or is Ai Yan scolded to get the position, this is not the right beam and the lower beam is crooked...... What retribution! ”

"Forget it, follow the locals! In this era, there are more fathers at the age of fifteen or sixteen! …… Well, I'm pretty good at comforting myself! ”

When the soldiers and horses arrived at Yanmen, Zhao Yijie had already set up a formation to go out to greet him, and Ashina Zhongjie was actually there.

"Ashina Zhongjie, you are good, you have a long ability!" Xue Shao deliberately kept a straight face, "You even dare to rob my son's military exploits." ”

"Xue Shuai is angry, didn't Zhongjie make a special trip to apologize?" Ashina Zhongjie didn't dare to make a mistake, and was cautious and cautious.

"How are you going to pay for it?" Xue Shao said.

"This ......," Ashina Zhongjie whispered, "Then it depends on what Xue Shuai has to do?" ”

"Smart man, I like it." Xue Shao smiled, "Zhao Yijie's eight thousand soldiers and horses, I want it." ”

"Seize the power of the army again?" Ashina Zhongjie's eyes were straight.

"Hey, why are you talking about it?" Xue Shao said with a smile, "Don't say it so ugly, this time it's not an enemy in front of the battle, so it can't be regarded as a seizure of military power." You see these brothers and sisters behind me, all of them have no strength to walk with injuries, don't they need a new force to help me escort the captives along the way? How about cutting love? ”

"I can't do this...... Ashina Zhongjie smiled bitterly, "Wang Xiaojie is the boss!" ”

"Oh, then you go and inform Wang Xiaojie and ask him to quickly send Li Qianzhong's head to Ben Shuai." Xue Shao said, "Xia Guanshangshu Xue Shao solemnly reminds here that competing for the first rank on the battlefield is a serious violation of military discipline. You must remember this as a marching commander, right? ”

"Okay, Zhao Yijie take it away, take it away! It's yours, it's all yours! ”
