Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Tension That Came Over My Face
The sea of stars has come out, and Zhang Yuanna can continue to talk to Wei Qing.
Quickly end the conversation between the two and continue on their way.
In the depths of the night, only the sound of horses' hooves and the wailing of steppe wolves remained.
Just after the hour, Wei Qing and Zhang Yuan, who were rushing back, returned to the woods.
From the outside, there was no light inside, and the heavy forest blocked all the light inside.
Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing were thinking about continuing to run into the forest, when suddenly five people appeared out of thin air and surrounded them with swords in their hands.
"Whoever dares to come here should not dismount and tie himself up."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Zhang Yuanxiao felt that this shouting made him a little uncomfortable, and Wei Qingxiao was because Li Jian was really good as a sentinel in this first song.
As soon as the two of them approached the forest, they were immediately surrounded by people.
"You two still dare to laugh, if you don't get off the horse, the crossbow arrow on my arm will turn your face and not recognize anyone."
Zhang Yuan swung his horsewhip and whipped it in mid-air, making a piercing sound.
"Crossbow arrows don't recognize people, and how many of you don't recognize people?
I'm Zhang Yuan, this is General Wei, don't hurry up and get out of the way. ”
Although these five soldiers felt a little familiar when they heard Zhang Yuan's words, they still didn't get out of the way, lit the fire at the moment, and took a picture of Zhang Yuanweiqing's face, and then shouted on one knee.
"General, Changshi, please forgive us for not doing it on purpose, spare us this time."
Wei Qing saw the scene in front of him and laughed loudly.
"You have done a good job, no matter who you are in the future, as long as you do not identify yourself, or if you have any suspicions, you will be stopped outside this forest by General Ben."
The five shouted excitedly.
"The villain obeys."
Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing didn't say anything more, re-lit the torches, and drove the horse towards the depths.
All the way to the camp, Wei Qing encountered Zhang Yuan five times in such an obstruction, and each time Zhang Yuan directly revealed his identity.
There are also guards and patrols in the camp, and those secret sentinels outside all know that they shout directly when they encounter a large group of people, in this era, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to come directly into the barracks without making any noise.
Before Zhang Yuanwei Qing entered the gate, Xue Ren didn't know where to jump out.
"General, long. You two are back.
I've been waiting for most of the night, and I've been worried all night, and the rest of the soldiers have been looking for you two several times.
Li Jian said that he would send someone out of the forest to find the two of you. ”
Wei Qing's eyebrows furrowed, he still didn't like Xue Ren's frivolous appearance until now.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuan got down from his war horse and asked Xue Ren.
"But what happened?"
Xue Ren shook his head and explained.
"It's all a chore, I'll go back and tell them to report to the two of you tomorrow morning."
Zhang Yuan nodded and let Xue Ren leave directly.
Wei Qing's face was not very good-looking, and he said very worriedly.
"With the appearance of these people, can we safely let them follow us when the time comes?"
Zhang Yuan tried to ease Wei Qing's worries with a smile, patted Wei Qing's back and said.
"Don't worry about things that didn't happen, Xue Ren's noble sons have also carried these trainings with the soldiers in the past two months.
I didn't show any signs of retreating, and even when I got to the edge of this white mountain, I didn't have the tension you have now.
Their ancestors were heroes, and their descendants will always have something to look at.
In the future, if a few of them really can't do it in wartime, you can lead 3,000 soldiers to charge alone. ”
Wei Qing nodded, agreed with Zhang Yuan's statement, and then returned to the camp with Zhang Yuan, and dispersed to rest.
Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing, who had only slept for two hours the next morning, promulgated a new training plan for all the soldiers.
The original wilderness raiding, cavalry training, and hunting were all cut down.
Running was changed to running around the camp, and then a guard was added, and a song of soldiers was sent out to find out the location of the various tribes in the depths of the grasslands north of Daishire.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Huns are now fixed in one place and not wandering around, they can thoroughly understand the situation.
By the time the war broke out, it was possible to go all the way north without being discovered by the Huns.
In this way, together with the Yiqu soldiers who protected those Lantian wild people around Mayi, there were Sanqu soldiers who were active outside the camp for a long time.
The scope of activities of the Qimen Army was expanded by Zhang Yuan I don't know how many times, far exceeding the estimates of those ministers in the DPRK and China.
Fortunately, there are not many people in the period gate army, and only by guarding a bottom line can Liu Che temporarily tolerate Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing's reckless behavior.
Gradually, time passed slowly, the first year of Yuanguang had passed, and the second year of Yuanguang quietly came in a heavy snowfall.
In the deep forests of the snow-white Saibei, such a group of Han soldiers did not feel the joy of the New Year, but sighed at the rapid passage of time.
Fortunately, except for a few people in the period-gate army, no one knew what the purpose of the period-gate army's trip was.
Most people think that they just came to Saibei for a year and then returned to Guanzhong.
Gongsun Ao has not returned to the camp of the Qimen army because there must be a person in charge of the overall situation on the Ma Yi side, and at the same time control the wild people who come forward not to escape.
Winter seemed to be a long time, but when the snow began to melt, Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing realized that the time was up.
The day after the snow began to melt, Wei Qing summoned all the soldiers and commanders in the army to gather in the big tent, and there were more than 50 people standing in a full house.
"Everyone, I won't do any training today, and when you go back, I will immediately order the officers and men in the army to pack up their things.
Tomorrow we will leave for the county seat of Mayi, and at the same time tell your men not to wear military uniforms on this trip, but still wear warm fur. ”
More than 50 people below hugged their fists in unison, and then rushed out.
Because Wei Qing was not worried about Xue Ren and waiting for the army, he directly inserted his hand into the smaller combat units, that is, these commanders.
"I don't know if I've built Gongsun Aoxiu's horse farm."
Because they want to act in front of the Huns, so many war horses can't be brought directly, and the Huns are not stupid, they all know that the Han Dynasty lacks war horses, and if a group of grazing border people everyone has war horses, don't they treat the Huns as fools.
Therefore, Wei Qingcai asked Gongsun Ao to start building a place that could surround three thousand war horses, and by the way, set up a warehouse to store grain, grass and ordnance.
These are all things that you can't bring with you in the first place, so find a place to stock them up, and they must be far away from the city of Mayup.
"Don't worry, the last soldier who came back was brought by Li Jian, and he said that the horse farm warehouse has been built."
Zhang Yuan said words that could reassure Wei Qing, but he was even more nervous than Wei Qing.
