General Huo Hongxun was forced to be helpless, and later surrendered to the male Jia people and became a sinner of the Liang Dynasty.

Later, the Xuanjia Army and the Huben Army united to recover the lost territory, and the soldiers of the original 15th Division were escorted back as prisoners, including Zhang Cripple.

A year later, the 15th Division was rebuilt, and it is now the 15th Division.

Chen Mu had heard these words many times a long time ago, and he was simply familiar with them.

After saying a few words, Kong Xiaoxian's eyes closed and he snored loudly.

Chen Mu walked out, and when he walked to the door, he was met by a small soldier with a plate of raisins in his hand.

The little soldier's name is Huang Xiaoyi, shrewd and sensible, and when he passed by, he asked Chen Mu if he wanted to eat?

Chen Mu grabbed a handful, put it in his pocket, patted Xiao Yi's shoulder, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

As he walked, he muttered to himself: "Every year, the bones of the war are buried in the wilderness, and I see Pu Tao entering the Han family." ”

Chen Mu is not uncommon with a handful of raisins, but since Xiao Yi took the initiative to send them up, he grabbed a handful himself, and then a smile leaked from his face, which was a kind of performance for Xiao Yi. Of course, there are prerequisites for this. If Chen Mu and Xiao Yi are not familiar with each other, and people are polite, you will reach out and grab it, which will make people think that you are ignorant.

This Xiao Yi is Zhonglang's personal subordinate, and the relationship is good, which is very beneficial. Usually, Chen Mu will often give some small favors to Xiao Yi, of course, when he is carrying people behind his back. In front of outsiders, the distance between you and the commander should not be too close, otherwise it will be detrimental to both parties.

The people who can understand this delicate distance are all people that Chen Mu is willing to befriend.

walked out of the division headquarters and turned to his own unique courtyard, which was personally selected for him by Kong Xiaoxian, which was quite favorable.

There were a few guards at the door, and when the "little second master" was not at home, they began to be lazy, squatting in the shade, and whispering.

They were discussing the Battle of Hexi.

Chen Mu quietly walked over and eavesdropped.

It turned out that they were talking about Qi Dongyang, a fierce general.

After the enemy army was repulsed, it is said that they ran far, far away, which is the credit of the 2nd Division of Shence.

As the favorite general of Tang Zhen, the eighteenth son, he ran thousands of miles to behead Hu, and Qi Dongyang became famous.

In fact, Qi Dongyang became famous a few years ago, but he committed an accident half a year ago, it is said that on Suzaku Street, he beat and killed Zuo Jinwuwei, and he was involved in a life lawsuit.

Due to the protection of the great Sima Tang Qiong, he has not been sentenced to death, and this time in the Hexi War, he took the opportunity to ask the emperor for mercy and give Qi Dongyang a chance to make meritorious service and atone for his crimes.

As a result, Qi Dongyang ran to Hexi and made a miraculous achievement.

Many people in the army were discussing Qi Dongyang's deeds, and the first few soldiers were chatting hotly, Chen Mu leaned over silently, and after listening to it for a long time, he was discovered by a small soldier, and he was so frightened that he stood up and shouted: "Captain Chen is good!" ”

The little soldier suddenly howled, and the other little soldiers turned their heads in shock, and when they saw the "little second master", they all stood up and saluted and said hello loudly.

Chen Mu grimaced and pointed at them with his fingers.

Ashamed, they trotted back to their posts and stood upright.

Chen Mu found that many soldiers lacked basic training and were not disciplined. But the obedience of the Liang Dynasty people is very strong, which is very good. If you have an army in your hands in the future, you must pay close attention to discipline and training, so that such a unit will be more cohesive and will not be easily defeated.

As soon as he returned to the house, Zhang Cripple ran over and asked Chen Mu for tea.

Chen Mu said that he was not thirsty.

The two chatted for a while, and when they heard that Chen Mu was going back to Luoyang, the lame man suddenly became in a heavy mood, and said with some embarrassment: "Chen Mu, now that you are the commander of the capital, you said that I am an old immortal, should I change my words?" It's really not appropriate to call you by your first name all the time. Hey, do you have a 'word'? ”

Chen Mu smiled bitterly: "Don't change it, just keep it like now, it's good." ”

The cripple is a shrewd person, and he does his best to protect Chen Mu's face in front of outsiders, and only when there is no one else does he dare to relax and relax. His ability to grasp proportions is very good, otherwise Chen Mu would not let him be presumptuous.

"That..., I have a request, I don't know if you can grant it."

"Tell me about it."

"You take me back to Luoyang once."

Chen Mu stared at the lame man: "Just to go to Wanhualou?" ”

The cripple smiled shamelessly, then nodded violently.

Chen Mu smiled bitterly: "You are an old immortal, you are so old, are you still so heavy?" Don't bring! ”

Hearing Chen Mu say no, the cripple still had a hippie smile: "Actually, I'm not what you think." I wanted to go to Wanhualou in my heart, but I didn't want to have fun. ”

"So for what?"

"I used to have a good match, and I said it a long time ago. When I first met her, she was only sixteen years old, which is the age of beauty. I fell in love with her at first sight, and just when I wanted to redeem her, a military intelligence report suddenly came, asking me to go on the expedition. At that time, I said to the girl, you wait for me, I will come back to you. ”

Chen Mu couldn't laugh anymore: "And then you made people wait for thirty years? Do you think people can wait for you? ”

"What is this called, why is it only thirty years?" The cripple was excited: "Seventeen years ago, I went to see him once." There weren't thirty years. ”

"Wasn't you a slave seventeen years ago?"

"Brother, I behaved well, I followed the little boss Tang Yu back to the capital once, hehe."

"That woman is still waiting for you in Wanhualou?"

"Well, wait for me." The lame man's eyes suddenly turned a little red: "But she is no longer a Qingqi, and she has been reduced to a red pavilion." Started a leather meat business. ”

The cripple couldn't help it and covered his face: "At that time, she said that when she was Qingqi, someone wanted to redeem her, but she didn't agree in order to wait for me." Outcome... When she was old, she was old and decrepit, and she couldn't make money for the old bustard, so she was reduced to the Red Pavilion, but she continued to wait, but what she was waiting for was a slave me. ”

Speaking of this, the cripple couldn't hold back his tears and cried.

It can be seen that the lame man has been depressed for a long time.

Chen Mu was a little moved, and patted the lame man on the shoulder: "Don't cry, I'll take you back, can't I take you back?" ”

The cripple wiped his tears: "After so many years, I don't know if she is still alive." If you live, will you still think of me? And our daughter, how the hell is she treated? Don't you follow her old path, right? ”

"What?" Chen Mu was shocked and smiled bitterly: "Old Zhangtou, are you so capable?" When you were a slave soldier, you got a daughter? ”

"Well, who's to say it's not. We have this ability, don't we? Zhang lame wiped his tears: "How many times have I told you, when we were young, we were in good spirits." Little girls are rare like us. ”

"Get out of the way!" Chen Mu stretched out his hand and knocked on the cripple's skull: "I know how to put gold on my face every day." ”

"Hey, hey." Zhang Lame smiled facelessly and lowered his voice: "I have been a soldier for so many years, in fact, I have also accumulated a lot of money. I didn't dare to take it with me, I put it all in the silver number of Chang'an City. Zhang lame pulled a hole in his clothes, and inside was a hidden pocket, and took out a silver ticket to show Chen Mu.

Chen Mu took it and looked at it, and it was only more than two hundred taels.

Chen Mu once converted the purchasing power of the Liang Dynasty's currency.

If you don't count the fire consumption, one tael of silver can be exchanged for about a thousand copper plates, which fluctuates slightly depending on the region and the age.

It is said that one copper plate can buy a pie.

According to this purchasing power, it seems to be about the same as the one yuan before Chen Mu crossed.

The lame man's two hundred taels of silver are equivalent to two hundred thousand yuan.
