Chunyu Yi had never seen a real war.

But the loss of two thousand cavalry in one battle is enough to prove the scale of the battle.

It seems that Xiao Xuan is right, the disaster in Beirong this year is indeed very serious.

In order to survive, they would definitely send several times more cavalry than in previous years to harass Wei.

As a result, if they want to drive them back to Beirong, the Wei army will inevitably pay a higher price and take longer.

So, Yan Xin told her that Xiao Xuan would be able to make a triumphant return in as little as two months or as little as one month. Is it still possible?

"What are you thinking about?" City Lord Chunyu waved his hand in front of her eyes.

"Dad, how long will this war last?"

"The national power of Beirong today is far less than that of twenty years ago, and the national power of the Wei Dynasty is stronger than before, so they are unable to truly invade the Wei Dynasty.

Winter comes early in the north. Once it snows heavily, it will be difficult for the Beirong people to retreat, and food and grass will be out of supply. What awaits them is the annihilation of their entire army.

So this war will not last too long, at most two to three months, Xiao Xuan and the others will return."

Chunyu Yi said: "Now that I live in the third sister's house, it is not convenient to inquire about news in the army.

From now on, when daddy gets news from the front, can he send someone to inform his daughter?"

Lord Chunyu was amused again.

How could he hide the thoughts of his children from him?

The marriage between the Xiao family and the Chunyu family was already a certainty thanks to the deliberate arrangement of the old Duke.

But no one can tell what Xiao Xuan thinks, at least in Yi'er's opinion.

So she wanted to meet Xiao Xuan before he saw his mother, and say what needed to be said clearly to avoid embarrassment.

"Okay, father, I promise you that whenever Xiao Xuan has a battle report and sends it back to the camp, he will send someone to tell you immediately."

"Thank you daddy!"

※※※※

The weather in the north this year was cold and dry, and there was no sign of snowfall in early October.

As a result, the war between the Wei Dynasty and Beirong was delayed for some time.

However, compared with the remnant soldiers in Beirong who did not have enough to eat, the life of the Wei army, which was well-equipped and well-fed, was much easier.

Finally, Beirong's cavalry couldn't stand it any longer.

Before the first snow came, Prince Sanchi's father, Lin Luodan Khan, led the remnant of more than 3,000 people to retreat first.

Other tribes followed suit and chose to retreat.

Unwilling to accept defeat, Chidu Khan barely managed to hold on for another five or six days, and finally had no choice but to retreat.

Xiao Xuan personally led five thousand cavalry in pursuit and almost captured Chidu Khan alive, but had to retreat to Wei due to weather conditions.

This war finally ended with the Wei army's victory.

On October 28, the last battle report was sent back to the Wei army camp.

Lord Chunyu learned that the Wei army was about to triumph, so he personally went to the Xiang Mansion.

That afternoon, Ding Xiaomu, a young craftsman who had not been seen in the camp for several months, appeared.

Li San was well-connected and well-informed, so he came over after dinner.

Chunyu Yi was really shocked when she heard the long-lost "Brother Xiaomu".

Ever since Wang Meimei's mother kicked her out of the Wang family on the Mid-Autumn Festival, she had put this matter aside for the time being, and she didn't even think about Li San for a long time.

Did he suddenly appear today, was it for Ding Xiaomu, or for that... little Hu Meizi?

"Brother Li San, long time no see." Chunyu Yi said hello bravely and invited him into his tent.

Li San found a chair and sat down, the smile on his face became much lighter.

"Xiaomu, where have you been recently? Third brother even thought you would never come back."

"No, the young marshal asked me to deal with something, so I left for a while."

"Xiaomu." Li San suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Third brother has always thought that you are an honest person, so the woman who went to the Wang family on the Mid-Autumn Festival should have nothing to do with you, right?"

Chunyu Yi clenched her fist, Xiao Xuan hadn't come back yet, so she shouldn't have revealed her identity.

But Wang Meimei's matter really can't be delayed any longer. Since Li San took the initiative to come to the door, he simply made the matter clear today.

"Brother Li San, actually...actually the woman who went to Wang's house on the Mid-Autumn Festival was me, not some little foxy girl."

"What?" Li San picked his ears and said, "Xiaomu, I don't think you have been drunk. Why are you talking drunkenly?"

"Alas -" Chunyu Yi sighed, and then said: "Brother Li San, the reason why I disguised myself as a man is to find someone in the camp.

Because I couldn't expose my identity, I had no choice but to hide it from you and Brother Dayong.

But I really don’t have any ill intentions, the Zhao family’s little sister and Miss Wang are both very good girls, and they will definitely be able to find a satisfactory marriage in the future.”

Li San listened to her seriousness and finally began to believe her.

He licked his dry lips: "On the Mid-Autumn Festival, you went to my father-in-law's house just to explain this matter to Meimei?"

"Yes, although I have only met Miss Wang twice and never promised anything, I don't want her to be hurt."

Li San rubbed his hands: "Xiaomu, you know the situation at Third Brother's house. My father-in-law and mother-in-law are both powerful people, and I brought you to the Wang family...

In short, third brother was tricked by you this time!"

Chunyu Yi grinned. The third brother must be afraid of not only his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but also his wife.

He was indeed a little miserable this time, but she couldn't be said to be the culprit, right?

She didn't want to go to Wang's house in the first place, but he forced her to go there.

"Third brother, don't tell anyone about this matter to the Wang family or anyone else. The matter will naturally be solved in a few days."

"Really?" Li San looked at her doubtfully.

"Of course it's true." Chunyu Yi vowed.

She is not someone who just opens her mouth and makes random promises.

As long as she and Xiao Xuan settle down on their marriage, and Li Sanduo doesn't need to explain, the Wang family will naturally not continue to entangle.

Li San squinted his eyes and looked at her.

No matter how he thought Ding Xiaomu was a man, it was really strange!

He knows the temperament of his father-in-law and mother-in-law very well.

Of course they are not bad people, but they have all the problems that ordinary people have.

I want them not to care at all, unless Ding Xiaomu's status is so high that they can't afford to offend him at all.

But a girl looks like this, it seems...

After seeing Li San off, Chunyu Yi felt relieved.

Just as she was about to go back and lie down, she saw Yan Xin smiling at her not far away.

"Brother Yan Xin is so happy?" she asked loudly.

Yan Xin trotted over and said with a smile: "Then the big-faced girl's matter has been completely resolved?"

Chunyu Yi rolled her eyelids: "What can happen between me and her?"

"Don't hide it. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, what happened to the water stains and mud spots on your skirt?"

"Oh! How dare you bribe Third Sister's nursing home!"

"Don't underestimate people, I didn't bribe anyone, I judged it from the water stains and mud spots.
