Chapter 922: A Coincidental Encounter
Leng Feng laughed: "You're right, that's the purpose." The grain production on the plateau is small, and the Tubo people all live on animal husbandry, and our Datang directly supplies them with food, which is much better than planting a gourd and harvesting two scoops. For a long time, you still think that there are still people in the tribes on the plateau who are willing to go to the trouble of planting barley? They will only expand their pastures as much as possible, exchanging cattle and sheep for food.
Besides, you think that the delivery of grain to the plateau is unlimited? Every year, the grain traded with the Tubo people was calculated by the grain merchants according to the information of the imperial court. The food sold is just enough for the population to consume. If a country, even the foundation of its existence, has been transferred to other countries, do you think that the fall of their territory is not a matter of time? ”
Leng Jing couldn't help but say, "It's really bad enough." ”
Leng Feng pouted: "Take down a Tubo without blood, you now know that those civil officials are not easy to mess with." The thing about hiding knives in their sleeves, they can slip away. ”
After solving his doubts, Leng Jing yawned: "Dad, I'll go back to rest, if you don't go to court tomorrow, our father and son will go hunting?" My sister is about to get married, and I, as a younger brother, have nothing to give, so I might as well hunt a black bear and make a leather jacket for her. ”
Leng Feng smiled: "It's okay, just look at how much you've grown in the past few years." ”
After making an agreement, both father and son went back to rest satisfied.
The turmoil in the court is not over yet, and before the turmoil is completely over, Leng Feng does not plan to smell the gunsmoke. The army on the expedition to Silla Baekje has just set off, and it may take up to two months to reach its destination, and it will take even more time for heavy weapons such as artillery to reach the place.
Before the flames of war broke out, the business of the military headquarters was only to receive reports from the army and have an understanding of their general movements. Such a simple job, Tang Jin can completely solve it.
It took half a month to hunt black bears.
In fact, if you want to hunt black bears, it won't take that long. In the deep mountains and old forests of Datang, there is no shortage of these fierce beasts at all. It's just that Leng Jing wants to hunt the fur with all black fur and high-quality fur, so it takes more time.
After successfully hunting to a satisfactory fur, the hunting team came out of the Qinling Mountains.
On the way, Leng Feng said to Leng Jing: "These guys are good seedlings, I think they have a good chance of being selected into the Dragon Tooth Guard." ”
Over the course of more than ten days, these soldiers showed their extraordinary abilities. Being able to have such strength at this age shows that they have experienced the baptism of real swords and guns on the battlefield. As for the skills that are lacking, after they are selected into the Dragon's Tooth Guard, they will naturally be taught.
Leng Jing said helplessly: "Actually, if possible, I would like to try the test of the Dragon Tooth Guard with them, but after returning to Chang'an, everyone knows my identity, and it is meaningless to test it again."
Leng Feng reached out and patted Leng Jing's shoulder on the horse: "You are not bad, after your sister gets married, when you have time, I will personally train you, and I will definitely not let you be worse than monkeys." ”
When I entered the mountain, I was on the side of the Academy, but when I went out of the mountain, I was about to arrive between Chang'an and Luoyang.
The journey from here to Chang'an, if you hurry up, one day is enough time to go back.
So, Leng Feng led the team, avoided the crowded road, chose a small road, and galloped wildly.
After running for only an hour, the cold front at the front met a large group of people.
This team of centaurs seemed to sense that there was someone in front of them, and actually set up a defensive formation on the spot, and many people who looked like generals drew their weapons, and the killing intent was Ling Ran.
"Protector?"
Behind the defensive line constructed by the carriage, a man showed his head.
Leng Feng followed the prestige and found that it was Changsun Chong.
After recognizing Leng Feng, Changsun Chong breathed a sigh of relief: "Sir, what are you doing here?" If I hadn't recognized you, I'd have thought there were bandits. ”
Leng Feng looked at his outfit and said helplessly: "After entering the mountain for a while, embarrassment is inevitable. Don't talk about this, why are you going with so many people? ”
Eldest Sun Chong's eyes moved to a luxuriously decorated carriage, and then he shrunk his neck.
"When his son sends him to work, does the Lord Protector also plan to take care of it?"
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the eldest grandson Wuji walked out with a gloomy face.
Because he was afraid of embarrassment, he deliberately avoided the main road and chose the small road, but unexpectedly, he still bumped into the person he was most reluctant to meet.
Seeing the eldest grandson Wuji, Leng Feng was stunned for a moment, and then understood the reason why he met him here.
Li Shimin said that he would release his eldest grandson Wuji for a period of time. It seems that he is going to work in other places. No wonder I didn't take the main road, but took the small road, and I still carried so many people and horses.
After understanding, Leng Feng smiled: "It turns out that Zhao Guogong is going to take up his post, to be honest, I also think that the court is extremely boring, and I want to go to other places to play, but I can't find a suitable heir, and the emperor won't let me run around." Zhao Guogong can avoid the hustle and bustle and be quiet, I really envy it. ”
Eldest Sun Wuji's teeth were about to be crushed, judging from Leng Feng's dress, he was not lying, the meeting between the two was indeed a coincidence, but it was a coincidence that made him even more angry.
The excuse that the emperor made this time was extremely lame, and it seemed that he was determined to let him go back to Zhaozhou and leave the court completely for a while. What made him most helpless was that in the past, the queen could still say a word for him and change the emperor's mind. However, this time, even the queen didn't help him.
Li Zhi is the queen's son in the end, and the eldest grandson Wuji's actions, although he did not leave a handle, but the queen is still very sad about this brother, and she doesn't even want to see it.
After looking around, the eldest grandson Wuji still didn't find that there was anyone else, and couldn't help but say with a dark face: "It seems that today's old man's fortune is not necessarily a trough, Protector Guogong, you are alone here, so you are not afraid of any accidents?" Although our Datang is extinct, it is not necessarily completely peaceful. It's not impossible that there will be robberies on the road~"
Of course, Leng Feng understood what the eldest grandson Wuji meant, and showed his white teeth and said with a smile: "This is not hard Zhao Guogong is worried, I am not very bold, and no one will follow me when I go out, I will definitely be frightened." ”
As soon as the words fell, at the end of the path, Leng Jing and the others followed at a high speed on horseback.
Their riding skills are not bad, and being pulled away by the cold front for some distance is also temporary.
They also saw something strange in front of them, so they drew their weapons without waiting to get closer.
When they arrived at the cold front, everyone was waiting for them.
Although the hunting team only has more than a hundred people, they are all members of the Shadow Guard, and Leng Jing, who does not belong to the Shadow Guard, and his soldier friends, are not weak.
