Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

Chapter 114 The Prince Arrives at the Grassland

The prince rode a tall horse, followed by 100,000 well-equipped and high-spirited soldiers, and arrived at the border with the Huns in a mighty procession.

This is a vast grassland with rolling mountains in the distance. The wind blows the grass and it seems particularly quiet and mysterious.

Several generals accompanying the prince advised him to set up camp here first, observe the enemy's situation, and then make further plans.

One of the experienced generals said, "Your Majesty, we have limited knowledge of the Xiongnu's situation. If we act rashly, we may end up in a passive position.

It would be better to station here first and send people to scout the Xiongnu's troop deployment and tactical arrangements. At the same time, it would also allow the soldiers to rest and recuperate. "

Another young general added: "Besides, if the two sides ever go to war, the common people will surely suffer."

After hearing this, the prince nodded in agreement.

He knew that war brought only destruction and pain, especially to innocent civilians.

So he decided to adopt the generals' advice and wait for a few days before making any plans.

He ordered the entire army to set up camp on the spot and sent several elite scouts deep into the Xiongnu territory to collect intelligence.

In the following days, the prince waited for the reconnaissance team's report while organizing the soldiers to train and prepare for war.

He hoped that in this way he could not only maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, but also put a certain amount of pressure on the Huns, prompting them to actively seek peace.

As time went by, the prince's image in the team became more and more majestic, and he established great prestige.

The night on the grassland is quiet and peaceful.

After the prince and the generals discussed the next plan, they ordered everyone to return to the tent and rest early.

In order to cope with unexpected needs.

After Xiao Luzi saw that everyone had dispersed, he poured a glass of wine for the prince. The prince picked up the glass and drank it all in one gulp.

No one knows whether the two armies will fight, and the Xiongnu's intentions are still unclear.

The prince was given the task at a critical moment. After returning to Beijing, he hurriedly met the emperor and came to the border with 100,000 troops.

The prince had led troops to participate in wars before, but since Ruxue passed away, he no longer cared about the affairs of the court.

The moon was big and round tonight. Standing outside the tent, the prince couldn't help but think of Daiyu.

During the day, he would train the troops, discuss war strategies with the generals, and study the terrain.

When he was alone at night, he would wonder if Daiyu had returned to Beijing and what she was doing at the moment.

Xiao Luzi knew that the prince missed Concubine Yu, but when it came to national affairs, all romantic feelings had to be put aside.

He deliberately stayed by the prince's side and refused to leave.

Xiao Luzi was worried that the prince couldn't get enough rest, so he kept calling the prince to go back to the tent to sleep.

But the prince seemed not to hear it and stood there motionless.

The roars of jackals or other wild beasts could be heard in the distance, but the prince remained standing there without changing his expression.

He really wanted to know if Daiyu missed him.

I don’t know how long this went on, but the sky gradually became covered with dark clouds and it looked like it was going to rain.

The prince was wearing thin clothes, so he had to return to the tent and fell asleep in a daze.

In the second half of the night, the prince was awakened by the urge to urinate, so he hurried to the toilet.

But just as he walked out of the tent, he noticed two suspicious black shadows in the distance, acting stealthily.

The prince waved hurriedly to Xiao Luzi, who understood and followed them secretly with dozens of elite soldiers.

In order to avoid alerting the enemy, the prince also wanted to take the opportunity to see where these people were sent from.

They actually swaggered into their own team, completely ignoring the soldiers standing guard everywhere.

Xiao Luzi followed them secretly. In his words, if he could make merit on the battlefield, he would have no regrets in his life.

The two men were as light as a swallow. They quickly came to the outside of the tent where the battle was commanded, probably wanting to obtain some information.

The prince signaled to Xiaoluzi and the others from a distance, telling them not to act rashly for the time being and to follow his gestures.

If they are from the Xiongnu side, we can catch them in a trap and find out the situation over there from their mouths.

When the prince discovered these two people, he had already sent Xiaoluzi to quietly withdraw the soldiers on guard in the area.

So the two men in black easily entered the tent.

The prince waved his hands, and Xiao Luzi immediately led a team of soldiers to surround the outside of the tent.

After waiting for about an incense stick of time, Xiao Luzi finally entered the tent with several elite soldiers.

They immediately saw the man in black rummaging around, and a hint of vigilance and anger flashed in their eyes.

Xiao Luzi held a long sword and was followed closely by several elite soldiers.

They marched in unison and shouted menacingly, "Who are you? Tell us your names!" Their voices echoed in the tent, full of majesty.

The two men in black heard the sound and turned around suddenly.

They were surprised to find themselves surrounded, and the group of people in front of them were holding long knives and staring at them with fierce eyes.

The two men knew that they could not confront each other head-on at this time and had to find a way to delay time.

So they started making up lies to try to distract each other.

One of them quietly observed the surrounding environment, looking for an opportunity to escape.

However, at this moment, the prince appeared from nowhere, and with a flash of his body, he blocked the way of the person who was trying to escape.

His eyes were cold, revealing an irresistible majesty.

The prince stood in front of them, his back to them, and shouted, "Xiao Luzi, take them out. Remember to take them alive. You must get some information from them."

The prince thought at this moment: It seems that God is helping me. Just when I wanted to inquire about the situation over there, they came to my door.

After Xiao Luzi took the two people away, the grassland became quiet again.
