When the words "support the army and respect themselves" are spoken, the meaning of the word is full of the flavor of great rebellion.

All the generals in the tent were stunned, everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to squeak for a long time.

Even Duan Wuji, who was also from Shiqiao Village and had always stood decisively on Gu Qing's side regardless of right or wrong, did not speak, staring at Gu Qing's face and blinking vigorously, as if he was wondering if he had heard it wrong just now.

Gu Qing saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, smiled, and said, "Look at your little bit of talent, do you think I want to rebel like An Lushan?" ”

The crowd remained silent.

"What I mean by 'supporting the army and respecting myself' means letting the Son of Heaven know my weight and prestige in the Anxi army, and letting the Chang'an court discover an ironclad fact, that is, the Anxi army has left my commander, and maybe something big will happen, forcing the court to have to transfer me back to Anxi and continue to be an envoy."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and their expressions looked much more relaxed.

If it wasn't a rebellion, it would be easy to do, it turned out that the Hou Ye meant to force the imperial court to transfer him back to Anxi.

"Master Hou, if you have anything to say next time, it's best not to use idioms......" Li Siye smiled bitterly and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

Gu Qing was stunned: "You are a big old man who actually laughs at me, a well-known talent, who gave you the courage?" Am I using the wrong idiom? ”

Chang Zhong sighed and said, "Master Hou, 'supporting the army and respecting yourself' is not what you just said......

Then all the generals in the tent nodded in agreement, and told Gu Qing very bluntly that he had used the wrong idiom.

Gu Qing touched his chin thoughtfully, and muttered, "It is said that the truth is within the range of the cannon, so ...... If I order each of them to be rewarded with ten sticks, is it possible to strike a truth? ”

As soon as the words were spoken, there was silence in the tent.

Duan Wuji suddenly said in a serious and authoritative tone: "Hou Ye's 'self-respect for the army' is not wrong, it is very suitable to be used here." I am a scholar, and the generals believe in me. ”

After the silence, everyone in the tent changed their attitudes and nodded vigorously in agreement.

Of course, this is how "supporting the army and respecting yourself" is used, Hou Ye is a talented man who is famous all over the world, can he use the wrong words? What's more, there is a shameless reader to prove it.

Gu Qing said with a smile: "That's right, not only is there no joke in the army, but there can be no noise, everyone maintains a high degree of consistency at any time, and it is an invincible and excellent team." ”

It's a bit obscure, but everyone still understands the basic meaning, and there is a chorus of echoes.

Turning his gaze to Liu Hongbo, Liu Hongbo was a latecomer in the Anxi Army, and was only transferred when Li Longji transferred the second batch of Left Guards and Jinwuwei soldiers to Anxi, Liu Hongbo was more introverted and not good at socializing, so his sense of presence among the generals of the Anxi Army was relatively weak.

Gu Qing smiled at him and said, "The training of the unity soldiers can't be stopped, the bounty and meat are provided every day, and they can't be interrupted for a day, how are they practicing now?" ”

Liu Hongbo got up and said: "The unity soldiers have been practicing for more than three months, and now they have some appearance, maybe not as good as the soldiers of the Anxi Army, but they are only stronger than the garrisons in the Tang Pass, not weaker, according to the new training method of Hou Ye, the physical strength and endurance of each unity soldier have grown, and there are still twenty people who have been selected into General Li Siye's Modao Battalion this month." ”

Gu Qing smiled approvingly: "General Liu is very capable, the unity soldiers are the reserve source of the Anxi Army, if they enter the Yumen Pass in the future, these 10,000 unity soldiers will also enter the customs together, at that time they are regular Tang Dynasty soldiers, there is no such thing as 'unity soldiers'." By the way, how many did you kill in order to train them? ”

Liu Hongbo said loudly: "Killed eight people, these eight people do not obey military orders, often incite laziness, and act as scoundrels in words and deeds on weekdays, and the final general will behead them for public display after verification, and after killing these eight people, the appearance of the united army is completely new, and these eight people are worth killing." ”

"Okay, the black sheep will pull out one and kill the other, and don't tolerate it."

Immediately, Gu Qing looked at Chang Zhong and said, "The five thousand people in the Divine Shooting Battalion have shown me a good idea, from tomorrow onwards, one more content will be added to the practice every day, and the ten-pound bucket will be held flat for me, keep it for half an hour, and add it to one hour after getting used to it...... Whether I'm in Ancy or not, the drill content is not allowed to stop. ”

Chang Zhong was stunned: "Master Hou, why is this?" ”

"No, just do it, I have my own intentions."

"Yes!"

…………

Yingzhou City.

Feng Yu and Shi Siming's personal relationship has become deeper and deeper, and the two have basically reached the point where they can talk and sleep at night.

This is Feng Yu's ability, he has a cheerful personality, generous shots, especially good at talking, can always follow other people's topics to chat, and then send a sycophant without a trace, of course, in the end, he will solve the actual difficulties of the other party, showing the noble quality of knowing the troubles, the other party Rao is hard-hearted, and it is difficult to treat him as an outsider under Feng Yu's combination of punches.

Aside from the two of them drinking and visiting the Qinglou every day, Feng Yu did solve a lot of difficulties for Shi Siming.

An Lushan ordered Shi Siming to fill the grain and grass of the Pinglu army for a year within three months, and in a hurry, Shi Siming was sad and gray-haired, there were many merchants in Pinglu, but most of them were medium merchants, no one could eat such a big deal, fortunately, God had mercy and let him know Feng Yu.

Originally, Shi Siming still had doubts about Feng Yu, and he didn't dare to believe in his origin and strength, but Feng Yu confirmed his strength with practical actions.

Last month, he sent 5,000 stone of grain and grass without saying a word, and this month he promised to arrange another 20,000 stone immediately, so that General Shi would complete Marshal Anjie's military order on time and in quantity.

Shi Siming was overjoyed and immediately introduced Feng Yu as a true friend.

No matter how luxurious and generous a person is when he is having fun, he will forget it in a blink of an eye after enjoying it, and he can't buy real friendship, but if someone comes forward to help when he is in trouble, such a friend must be made.

Shi Siming felt that Feng Yu was a real friend, his boldness and generosity and helping hand were very obvious advantages, not to mention that he was also very good at chatting, such a friend was worth really dating.

In the following days, Shi Siming's attitude towards Feng Yu changed significantly, the most obvious thing was that Feng Yu found that there were a lot less eyeliners around his house to spy on him, and Shi Siming became more and more casual towards him, and occasionally even took the initiative to invite guests.

Feng Yu calmed down, on the surface he still had the face of an arrogant and domineering gentleman, but he was secretly happy in his heart.

He found the time was ripe.

In the house of Yingzhou City, in the middle of the night, only a dim candlestick was lit in the house.

Li Jianjiu's expression was solemn, but Feng Yu, who was sitting opposite her, did not sit down, half-sitting and half-lying on the side of the futon, with a cynical and frivolous smile on the corner of his mouth.

"How sure are you about this? If you have the intention of gambling, I advise you not to take chances, the soldiers and horses under An Lushan are not a rabble, they have been guarding the border army in the north of the Tang Dynasty all these years, and their combat power and vigilance are very high, and they will be seen if they are not careful. Li Jianjiu's little face was tense, and there was a strange cuteness.

Feng Yu kept staring at her face, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, although this woman was a little older than him, she looked like a little girl who was not deeply involved in the world.

"Whether you are sure or not, this matter must be done, count the days, it is getting closer and closer to An Lushan's army, if I don't stab him in secret, I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future." Feng Yu smiled lazily.

Li Jianjiu said suspiciously: "Shi Siming trusts you very much? ”

"It's more trusting...... Feng Yu thought about it and said with a smile: "Three days ago, Shi Siming and I were both drunk, and he took the initiative to invite me to sleep in the same room, without any defense against me, haha, that guy snored like thunder after falling asleep, so noisy that I didn't sleep all night, and I opened my eyes until dawn." ”

Li Jianjiu looked at him deeply and said, "Do you know how much risk you have to take in what you plan to do?" Once discovered, Shi Siming will make your life worse than death. ”

Feng Yu's smile gradually narrowed, and he sighed: "Ah Jiu, I know it's dangerous, but I have to do it, because this is the task given to me by Brother Gu......"

"Gu Houye's words, can you even ignore life and death?"

Feng Yu's eyes became misty, and a thick fog seemed to rise in his eyes, and at the end of the thick fog was the barren mountain village that used to be.

"Brother Gu and I were both born in Shiqiao Village, Ah Jiu, you don't know how poor Shiqiao Village used to be, that kind of poverty...... It is the poverty that has made people desperate for generations, some people can't stand it, they go out and join the recruitment, all of them die on the battlefield, those who don't go out are the old people, women and children, they guard a few acres of thin fields and struggle to survive, starving and not enough to eat, as if God gave us life so that we could be tortured by reincarnation. ”

"I used to be hungry, every year I was hungry, I went to dig wild vegetables in the mountains, I caught fish in the river, and when I was hungry, I caught mice in the hole to eat, do you know how to catch mice? Find the mouse hole, the damp firewood smoke is lit, the smoke is smoked at the entrance of the hole, a bamboo basket is buckled outside the hole, the mouse is smoked so much that it runs out of the hole, falls into the bamboo basket, a mouse removes the internal organs of the stomach, and there are only two mouthfuls of meat that can be eaten, such a little meat, the children in the village also grab it, and beat each other until their heads are broken and bleeding......"

"Such days, I have lived for more than ten years, until one day, Brother Gu's temperament has changed greatly, he has become different from before, he is no longer the cowardly and kind orphan, he has become very strong, very domineering, full of murder and anger, at the same time he also has an inexplicable ability, he took us to build a porcelain kiln, run a village school, I don't know when, every household in our villagers can afford meat, and have the courage to go into the county to buy flower cloth to make new clothes, the girls in other villages have taken the initiative to find matchmakers, want to marry into our village......"

"In just one or two years, the changes are really big, it's like a dream. Later, Brother Gu became an official and went to Chang'an, leaving Sister Huaiyu, she was very strict, kicked our butts every day, drove us to the halfway up the mountain to practice, practiced martial arts, learned killing, learned knives, guns and sticks, learned to fight the enemy in formation, and then kicked our butts and drove us into the school, who didn't have to study to be whipped by her, the whip really hurt on the body......"

Feng Yu hung her head, trying not to let her see her red eyes, and there was still a flirtatious smile on her cheeks.

"The people of a whole village, it seems that Brother Gu dragged us back from hell to the world, as long as we are willing to work hard in the village, every family has food, money to earn, and even can go to school to read and write, if this is changed before, I can't think of it, but we just live such a life......"

"Ah Jiu, do you know why I'm telling you this? Gu Qing in your eyes is just a young magnate, a person who was named a county marquis at a young age, and he is a big man, but Gu Qing in the eyes of our Shiqiao Village people is a god, his words are greater than the holy decree, and he is jealous, even if he ascends to the top today and shouts that he wants to rebel, our Shiqiao villagers will not hesitate to stand behind him, attack the city and plunder the land for him, and go forward one after another. ”

Exhaling deeply, Feng Yu said in a deep voice: "Brother Gu said that An Lushan once cheated him in Anxi, and he asked me to find an opportunity to take revenge on him, and if he said this, then I will gamble on life and death to do it for him, and I will stab An Lushan in the back this time." ”

Looking at Feng Yu with a hideous face, the frivolous disguise on his face was replaced by a calm face, his eyes were calm and distant, like a wise hermit, staring at the joys and sorrows of the world with cold eyes.

At this moment, Li Jianjiu finally understood Feng Yu and Gu Qing better.

"Feng Yu, let it go, I'll help you. Life or death, I am with you. Li Jianjiu held his face with both hands, and his expression was more serious than ever.
