Chapter Ninety-Seven: Chen Boqing
It turned out that last winter, when the Qinglong Army was stagnant, some people in the DPRK criticized it, and in order to calm down this criticism, Gu Yong sent people to spread rumors in Longdu that he had to cultivate due to the recurrence of his old disease, which caused the army to be unable to continue the attack. However, as the so-called seeking benevolence and getting benevolence, Gu Yong's excuse has become a reality, just after the New Year, Gu Yong really relapsed and became seriously ill.
So rumors spread in Longdu, saying that Gu Yong, the first military division in the world, was about to die of illness, and he needed a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and 10,000-year-old snow ginseng to save his life. The eldest lady and the second lady of the Gu family were very anxious, and the two went to the princess's mansion to ask for the eldest princess's thousand-year-old lingzhi and 10,000-year-old snow ginseng. The eldest princess made friends with the two, so she handed over the cherished Ganoderma lucidum and the snow god to the two.
The two young ladies of the Gu family originally planned to ask someone to send them, but Shi Zhongqiu, the daughter of the king of Nanyang County, the little county lord, encouraged them to go north with him and personally send the life-saving medicine to the Yashan camp. The three of them secretly left Longdu despite their family's objections, and when the Gu family found out, the three women had already run out of Longdu. The Gu family had no choice but to send Chen Boqing with fifty generals to catch up with the three young ladies, and it was not until the two wolves passed that the Gu family guards could catch up.
The three young ladies were stubborn and abnormal, Chen Boqing's persuasion was useless, and after thinking about it again, he had to escort the young ladies to the Jincheng camp in the Saibei Wasteland. Chen Boqing thought that the team of more than 50 people was already very safe, but on the first night he entered the wasteland, he encountered a sandstorm, and the team got lost and didn't know where to go. Originally, it only took ten days to ride horses from the Two Wolves Pass to Jincheng, but they walked for a month because they got lost.
Later, they encountered the sand bandits many times, and only after the battle with the sand bandits did they get lucky to capture a sand bandit captive, and they actually learned the location of Jincheng from the mouth of the sand bandits.
"This Chen Daxia's martial arts are certainly powerful, but it doesn't seem to have a good sense of direction." Hu Sanwan sneered and said, "It is said that he went to Yinshan alone to kill the seven evildoers of Yinshan because he took the wrong path. ”
Zhang Xiaowu laughed so much that he almost fell off the horse, even the calm Wu Song also covered his mouth with a book and laughed very hard, and the others were even happier, everyone said that the world was really fair, and no matter how superb martial arts people were, they also had shortcomings, and this Chen Daxia's shortcomings were quite fatal.
Two days after the return, the people of the caravan gradually stopped fearing the sergeant of the Dead Soldier Battalion, and inquired about the leader of the Dead Soldier Battalion, who gave the nickname Ghost General Zhang Xiaowu, and asked about the origin of the ghost general. Although the soldiers of the Dead Soldiers Battalion did not like Zhang Xiaowu's harsh training, they tried their best to maintain their leadership outside, and praised Zhang Xiaowu, saying that he crawled out of the pile of dead people in Tucheng and killed nearly a thousand dogs......
Zhang Xiaowu couldn't help but laugh when he heard the story, and there were nearly a thousand dogs......
The sergeants were obviously very curious about the legendary Gu family ladies who looked like fairies, and whispered about how beautiful they were during the break, Hu Li suggested to Zhang Xiaowu that if they asked the Gu family if they needed anything together, they could take the opportunity to see what the fairies looked like.
Zhang Xiaowu glared at him and said, "Don't mess around, you bad guy, the Gu family is not something you can afford to provoke." ”
Hu Li said: "I just take a look from afar to confirm the beauty and ugliness, in case it is ugly and weird, and I boast of being a beauty." ”
Zhang Xiaowu kicked him and led the team to inspect, as the real commander of the entire team, he constantly sent scouts to survey the terrain and enemy situation in all directions, how could he have the heart to see what the Gu family lady looked like. Moreover, he was used to seeing those natural or unnatural beauties on the Internet before crossing over, and he had long been immune to beauties, and he would not secretly guess the appearance of Miss Gu like other unpromising officers and soldiers.
Although the soldiers of the dead battalion were all punished for not abiding by military discipline, they unusually obeyed military discipline when marching, and obeyed Zhang Xiaowu's military orders. For example, some sergeants actually took the opportunity to verbally tease the two envoys of the Gu family, and were severely whipped by Chen Guanxi, who was responsible for maintaining military discipline.
Zhang Xiaowu's horseback riding skills have also been practiced in the past ten days, just like the first time to ride a bicycle, the first time to drive a motorcycle, the first time to drive a tractor, the first time to drive a car, the first time to drive an off-road vehicle, the first time to drive a small bus, drive more practice, sharpen a few more times to become familiar, and after getting familiar with it, practice more is proficient. Although he can't do it skillfully, after all, it takes time and the cooperation of war horses, but now it is no longer a problem to ride and shoot and command on horses, even if he rides a horse and slashes. His mount was a three-year-old brown mare, and the cavalry told him that the horse was called the Second Donkey, because it lacked strength on its hind legs, so it was slow to sprint, but it had the advantage of being tall and strong.
A mare called the second donkey is really ugly, Zhang Xiaowu gave it a new name Wenwen to commemorate his first girlfriend, after all, he rode it......
The scouts of the Dead Soldier Battalion had to report to Zhang Xiaowu every once in a while, and Zhang Xiaowu's trip was not fast. Chen Boqing, the general of the Gu family, was worried that he would encounter sand bandits again, so he asked Zhang Xiaowu to speed up the trip. Although Chen Bo did not understand military affairs, he also saw Zhang Xiaowu's purpose of frequently mobilizing troops during the march, in addition to guarding the safety of the convoy, there was also the intention of training, so he was very dissatisfied with Zhang Xiaowu.
Zhang Xiaowu said: "We have so many people, it would be good if we could meet the sand bandits as soon as possible." ”
"You still say it's a good thing?" Chen Boqing was angry on the side, staring at Zhang Xiaowu and said, "You really haven't seen sand bandits, you really haven't seen dead people!" Meddlesome? Do you think it's a good thing that your companions who get along with you day and night are killed by sand bandits? Don't think I can't see it, your name is escort, but it's actually a military training. While training is important on the march, escort is more important than training, right? If the trip is delayed for military training, I am afraid that the general will not be able to afford it. ”
"Hahaha, it's just a dead person, what's the big deal." Zhang Xiaowu squinted his eyes and smiled coldly, "I think that after the few people around me die, the world will be quiet, and no one will make noise in my ears anymore." It's just a dead person, as if I've seen a lot of battles. In addition, if this trip was not for Gu Junshi's plea, you think I would be willing to protect a group of people. With that, he rode his horse back to the team, so angry that Chen Boqing almost drew his sword and killed.
After another day, when they were resting for dinner, the Gu family ladies in the car finally couldn't sit still and wanted to come out to breathe.
The grassland is dry and there are many mosquitoes, and the ladies are safe to hide in the car, but they are a little boring. The three young ladies are not very old, some of them are very temperamental people, and it is already the limit to be stuffed in the car for two days, so at noon on the third day, they said that if they can no longer breathe, the three of them will not eat or drink.
Chen Boqing couldn't cry or laugh at the request of the three young ladies, and when he saw that he couldn't persuade him, he put forward a condition, and the young ladies had to cover their faces with a beautiful veil and only show a pair of eyes, so as not to have bad intentions after the sergeant saw it. Previously, Gu Yong told them to listen to Chen Boqing on the road, and the young ladies walked out of the carriage with Lisha on their faces.
As soon as the three young ladies got out of the carriage, they giggled, stretched out their arms and said that it was better to breathe in the air outside the carriage, and even their minds were much clearer. Among them, the youngest and most courageous Miss Gu Er pulled the placket of the eldest lady of the Gu family and asked, "Sister, sister, where is the ghost, what does he look like, Ling'er peeked at him and said that he was wearing a red shawl, which one is it?" ”
