Chapter 547
 Half a month later, news came from the border that Bai Qingmeng led his troops to the northern border. Since then, the news from the north has gotten better, and the speed of retreat has finally slowed down a bit.

Yun Jingchu spent nearly a month on the road before reaching the northern border.

The three generals of the Yuwen family, Yuwennan, Yuwenxi, and Yuwenbei, Gongsun Sheng, Marquis of Anbang, and Bai Qingmeng, the third son of Duke Ning, came out to meet Yun Jingchu at the same time.

Yun Jingchu was dressed in military uniform, riding on a war horse, looking at the five majestic generals with different styles in front of him, his momentum was not weak at all.

"Your servant waits to welcome the empress. Because I have armor on my body, I can't perform the full salute. I hope your empress will forgive me." Everyone bowed and clasped their fists to salute.

"You don't need to be too polite. From now on, please forget about my empress status and just call me Marshal." Yun Jingchu said indifferently with a cold expression.

"Yes, I would like to obey my mother... No, the command of the marshal." Everyone responded in a somewhat uneven manner.

"Marshal, your room is ready, please come down with me." Yu Wennan immediately stepped forward and bowed to invite.

Now, the place where the Yuan army is stationed is called Taiyu City, and it is because of Bai Qingmeng's place that they defended it and did not retreat again.

In the center of Taiyu City, the former magistrate's yamen was used as a place for the army to discuss affairs temporarily.And the Zhifu's backyard is where Yu Wennan arranged for Yun Jingchu to stay.

As for other high-level generals, they live in the front yard so that they can discuss military situations at any time.

 Arriving at the magistrate's yamen, Yun Jingchu didn't go to rest immediately, nor was he in a hurry to eat, or wash up, but asked Yu Wennan to call a meeting of all senior and senior generals.

Yamen Hall.

Yun Jingchu sat at the main seat, looked at the generals sitting or standing on both sides, and said, "General Yuwen, tell me about the current situation."

Yu Wennan took a step forward, with a calm expression on his face, and said gently: "Marshal Qi, the Kingdom of Jin and the Xiongnu have almost poured out the country, and they have assembled a total of 50 troops. All of them are strong and strong, and they are not afraid of death. Moreover, they have Leather clothing to keep out the cold, our side is really unable to resist, unfortunately, nearly [-] soldiers have been sacrificed and eight cities have been lost."

Yun Jingchu's face darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "General Yuwen, you are shirking responsibility! You are responsible for guarding the northern border, and you don't know how to be prepared for danger in times of peace, but you were caught off guard by the enemy. Failure, in just one month, eight cities were lost in a row, and the people of my Great Yuan were plunged into dire straits, are you guilty?"

As soon as Yun Jingchu said this, Yuwenxi quit, patted the handrail and stood up, raised his eyebrows, and said loudly: "Marshal, you are wrong to say that. My Yuwen family guards the most difficult northern border. Slack, you have made many contributions to Dayuan. Now that you come here, you will ask us for your sins before your butt is hot. How can there be such a reason?! Standing and talking does not hurt your back. Who doesn’t know the north and northwest? The troops of the Jin Kingdom and the Xiongnu are so brave that few other countries can match them, and the north is the most difficult and dangerous place, and now that you are so provocative, the subordinates feel that you are a little bit making use of it.”

Yun Jingchu's eyes were even colder, and his voice seemed to contain icy scum: "General Yuwen, please show some respect to me. I didn't ask you anything, so don't interrupt me."

"Hmph! I'm just telling the truth, is the marshal trying to use his status to suppress others?" Yu Wenxi said loudly with a gloomy face.
