Chapter 400 Another War
When he returned to the gate of the other courtyard, Altan said bluntly: "What Madam Sima said today, I am not influential, I am afraid I can't do what you want."
Song Chunlin: "Don't be so self-deprecating. Besides, the trading market is for those officials to discuss. I hope you will consider what I proposed yesterday. How about it?"
Yesterday? Altan thought about the school that Song Chunlin mentioned yesterday. Actually, he was not very interested in going to school. In the Turkic region, no one was interested in the poetry and songs of the Han people. Those romantic things could not be eaten or drunk. It was better to learn other more practical things.
Song Chunlin knew that they did not have a very systematic teaching method, and all the knowledge was passed down from generation to generation. Although the Turks had their own Chinese characters, not many people could read them. Apart from the royal children and some nobles, ordinary people could only herd sheep all their lives and were illiterate.
Seeing Altan's lack of interest, Song Chunlin couldn't help but wonder if he was going in the wrong direction?
Forget it, never mind. When I have time tomorrow, I'll take him to the school to take a look. They have set up so many subjects, I don't believe that this person won't like any of them.
The peace talks had only lasted for one day, and Song Chunlin thought it would continue for a few more days, but Gu Fengyue came back at noon the next day.
"Hey, you're back so early today? Where's your brother?" Song Chunlin glanced behind Gu Fengyue, but didn't see anyone. Gu Fengyue held his head and pulled him back.
"The Jin people are heading south. We will set off soon. There is no time to negotiate with those barbarians."
Su Fuqing and Old Madam Su, who were sitting in the room, were unexpectedly informed that the Jin army was heading south, and they were both horrified.
"What? The Jin people are heading south so quickly?"
Gu Fengyue nodded. "Yes, we sent an express delivery of 800 miles earlier. They have completely left the Quemeng Mountains and are attacking the nearest large tribe. We will march quickly tonight and will arrive in about three days. Hopefully we can catch up with them."
Su Fuqing's mind raced. The nearest large tribe in the Quemeng Mountains was about four hundred miles away from the capital. No matter how fast they marched, it was impossible for them to cover more than a hundred miles in one night, right?
"Isn't this nonsense? How can it take three days? Moreover, don't the barbarians have any preparation at all?"
Su Fuqing was extremely anxious. How could he have to go to war again after just returning home?
Gu Fengyue comforted him and Madam Su: "Don't worry, sister-in-law and aunt, we are a little rushed, but if we go directly over the mountain, the distance can be shortened a lot. When Chunlin and I go, we will have to ask sister-in-law to take care of the family again."
Su Fuqing couldn't help but patted his shoulder: "What nonsense are you talking about? We are all family. Do you have to bring Chunlin with you when you go out this time?"
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. Chunlin is a better fighter than me."
After listening to this, Su Fu's eyes turned dark. Silly child, is this such a glorious thing?
However, things had come to this point, and even if Song Chunlin wanted to stay, the emperor might not let him. Su Fuqing could only quickly have someone pack up their simple luggage. The two of them did not even have time to eat lunch before they hurriedly set out on their journey.
Before leaving, Song Chunlin did not forget to ask Su Fuqing to take the little Turkic prince to visit the school when he was free.
"School?" Su Fuqing pondered the two words carefully. He had heard that Song Chunlin had opened a school, but he didn't know the exact location. It was not until Gu Fengyun came back in the middle of the night that he successfully asked for the address of the school.
However, Song Chunlin and Gu Fengyue arrived at the military camp first on horseback. Their journey was rather hasty, so they could only travel lightly with a team of elite soldiers. When they arrived at the gate of the military camp, those elite soldiers were already ready to set off.
Because it was a forced march, Gu Fengyue could not fall behind, but Song Chunlin could. He took the lead and ran to a deserted place, took out his motorcycle and rode away. He even ate simply by stuffing a few bites of bread into his stomach.
When the people behind saw that Song Chunlin left first, they were confused and thought that Song Chunlin didn't want to run anymore. It was not until they set off and the road was smooth and they saw the marks made by Song Chunlin on the roadside that they realized that Mrs. Sima had actually gone to explore the way first!
I don't know how he can run so fast with just his two legs.
Song Chunlin arrived at the tribe one day earlier than the army. He took out a telescope and took a look from a distance. Fortunately, the two sides were still in a standoff. The Jin people probably thought that the tribe was already in their pocket, so they didn't want to do too much damage. They had been in a standoff with the people in the tribe for two days. Tomorrow would be the last day. Regardless of whether these people were willing to surrender or not, they would raze this place to the ground.
Song Chunlin used his mental power to measure, very good, the distance was just right. It was difficult to kill people with long-range mental power, so Song Chunlin just picked out a few people who looked important and hit them on the head one by one. Several people felt a sharp pain in their brains almost at the same time, and then fell into a coma.
The sudden fainting of several high-ranking officers caused chaos in the Jin army's morale for a while, but it was quickly suppressed by several other lower-level generals.
Looking at the brief chaos over there, Song Chunlin expressed some regret. He thought that these people could be in chaos for a whole day, but in less than half a day, they have returned to their original state. Tsk, aren’t these Jin people afraid?
Song Chunlin was thinking about giving them a big blow. Gu Fengyue was here with his elite troops and was only half a day's distance away from him.
Seeing that they would reach the grassland where the tribe was after climbing over another hill, Gu Fengyue ordered everyone to rest for an hour and recharge their energy before continuing on their journey.
Thinking that Song Chunlin would definitely not just sit there and wait for death, Gu Fengyue was not so nervous. As long as he could delay the Jin army for a day, then when their large army arrived, he would be sure to drive the Jin army back to the other side of the Quemeng Mountains.
Song Chunlin did not disappoint Gu Fengyue. He mobilized a few people who looked like small leaders and launched indiscriminate mental attacks. This time he was a little lighter. Those people just had splitting headaches and lay on the bed, feeling worse than death. Seeing their pain, the people around them felt that coma seemed very mild.
Looking at these people twisting their bodies like insects, with no one able to hold them down, Song Chunlin took a big gulp of spiritual spring water. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but since he had overdrawn his mental power too many times in Linyuan City last time, the speed at which he replenished his mental power seemed to have slowed down a lot.
Could it be that because I’ve overdrawn too many times, my spiritual sea hasn’t recovered yet?
