Later, when Mulan arrived at the army camp, Mushu hid in her collar and whispered advice on how to blend in with the men. Mulan tried his suggestions on the first three recruits she met, Yao, Ling, and Chien-Po.
But Mushu's advice was not very good. Mulan soon found herself a witness to a free-for-all--and she had started it! Meanwhile, in an officer's tent, Chi Fu was meeting with General Li and the general's son, Shang. The general surprised both men by promoting Shang to the rank of captain. Before leaving to lead his troops to the Tung-Shao Pass, General Li put Chi Fu in charge of reporting on Shang's progress in training the recruits. After his father had gone, Shang went to the center of camp, where he discovered all his recruits engaged in a huge brawl. The others wasted no time in pointing out Mulan as the source of the trouble. "What is your name?" Shang asked Mulan. "My name? It's -- uh -- Ping," she replied. Handing Shang her conscription notice, Mulan knew she was not off to a good start. |
