Guo Xi frowned when he heard this, and said with a straight face: "Ziyin, it is a common order to ban alcohol in the army, but now most of the mansions and guards have violated the yang and yin, and they have long been disobeying this order. If you really want to drink, our Jian Yuwei is not impossible, this place is more than ten miles west, it is my second brother's Zhuangzi Wine Workshop, and you can go back and forth with a stick of incense. Oh yes, you should know that your green wine is made there. But we are the Holy Army, the elite Army with high hopes. Guo Xi is unwilling to let such a military discipline of the Tang Dynasty begin to corrupt from my hands! ”

As soon as Yang Qing heard what Guo Xi said seriously, he quickly stood up and bowed deeply: "Yang Qing has no such intention. Brother Xilie is loyal and courageous, and governs the army like iron. It's really an example for my generation! ”

Guo Xi also panicked, and hurriedly got up to help Yang Qing: "Guo is abrupt!" That is, to express his heart with a casual word, and there is no intention of blaming the son! Hurry up, please! ”

Guo Xi originally thought that Yang Qing was the son of an official eunuch, and he was used to spending red wine and green in Chang'an, and when he came to this army, he aroused his addiction to alcohol at night, so he wanted to remind and warn him. Unexpectedly, now looking at Yang Qing's sincere tone, his eyes were full of admiration, and there was no sense of shame, only then did he realize that he was really wrong to blame the other party, Yang Qing really just made a joke casually, and this time he misunderstood.

wanted to apologize seriously, but couldn't find the right words for a while, Guo Xi looked at Yang Qing's eyes with guilt.

Seeing this, Yang Qing completely understood in his heart. Haha laughed: "Xilie Huwei, joking also makes people break out in a cold sweat, I'm scared by you!" Quickly pour tea and make amends! ”

Guo Xi grinned, said yes again and again, hurriedly pulled Yang Qing to sit down, and poured a cup of tea seriously, which can be regarded as eliminating the embarrassment of the little turmoil between the two.

Yang Qing saw that the merchant Zhang Nan was already standing outside the tent, and hurriedly beckoned the two of them to come in, and the four of them sat down again, Guo Xi called a personal guard and whispered a few words. Then while hand-distributing vegetables to the three of them, he said with a smile: "It is forbidden to drink alcohol in the army, but there is another good thing that is not forbidden. Ha ha! ”

It's just sweet wine, hehe, this substitute is good. Yang Qing and Shang Zhang looked at each other and smiled, but remembered what Guo Xi had just said......

"Xilie, is discipline in the army really corrupt now?" Yang Qing asked with a frown.

"Not all guards are like this, at least I haven't heard anything like that in the Sixth Army of the Northern Ya. The soldiers of the Ochichong Mansion...... That's hard to say. Guo Xi couldn't help but shake his head and sigh when he talked about it.

"The army is the backbone of the country. If a person's spine is bent and twisted, can this person still be called healthy? Why doesn't the military department care? Yang Qing knew that the general trend was like this, but when he thought of this, he still couldn't help but be angry.

"Ziyin's words are exquisite, the backbone of the country! It's not that the military department doesn't care, it's just that the military department also has its difficulties...... Nowadays, the border army is becoming more and more arrogant and disciplined, but it is also highly paid and lucrative, and it is quite easy to be promoted. My Datang now has good news almost every ten years, and the border generals are becoming more and more eager to fight for merit, driving the soldiers frequently, and there are many situations that disturb the people and make trouble, but not only the commander does not govern, but even helps it to flame! The soldiers in the pass had no merit, no hope of promotion, and short food and clothing, so most of them were dissatisfied, and their training was wild, so they could only use alcohol to eliminate their sorrows. Alas! ”

Guo Xi's words made Yang Qing fall silent suddenly. Originally, I didn't know much about some of the skins from the garrisons in various places, but now that I have listened to the words of this powerful general who has led the army for more than ten years, the situation is only worse. The soldiers are drunk all day long to vent their dissatisfaction, once the war starts, can they be expected to defend their home and country? No wonder the Anshi Rebellion went down to Luoyang in January and captured Chang'an in half a year!

But isn't it my ambition to change all that? Yang Qing woke up violently, now is not the time to sigh in frustration!

The idea of training a new army in its own way and according to its own ideas is good. Before it can be implemented, it is necessary to obtain the support of the general in front of him! Yang Qing understands that in terms of trust, his weight in Xuanzong is far below Guo Xi, and what he can make others look at is only the boldness and momentum of thought. But although Guo Xi is young, he is already a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, and he has led the holy army for many years, and his family origin is loyal. Xuanzong's intention to make himself his deputy is self-evident!

According to Yang Qing's observation, Guo Xi is self-disciplined but flexible, loyal but not stupid, bold and meticulous, and is indeed a handsome talent that is rare in a century. Such a person must be wooed, and he will definitely be able to woo him! Because as long as Guo Xi can understand his purpose and ambitions, he will definitely support himself without hesitation. However, this cannot be rushed......

"Brother Xilie, what do you think of the training method in my big **?" Yang Qing seemed to divert from the previous heavy topic, and asked a word in a stroll.

"The law is a good law, but it depends on the will and perseverance of the executor. Including the soldiers who trained, but also the generals who led the troops! "Guo Xi's perception of Yang Qing has now improved comprehensively, and the doubts in his heart are gone, and he no longer speaks in a polite manner." What does Ziyin think? ”

Yang Qing didn't answer, and instead asked Shang and Zhang: "What do you two think?" ”

Shang Han raised his eyes and looked at Guo Xi, slightly hesitating.

Yang Qing was relieved: "General Guo is a reasonable person, and since he sits at a table and eats meat and drinks wine...... Hehe, then I didn't treat you as outsiders, but it didn't hurt to say it! Guo Xi also nodded affirmatively.

Shang Han shook his head embarrassedly: "Villain...... This is not what it means. It's just that it's hard to hear...... Then the lowly position will dare to say a few nonsense! ”

first hugged Yang Qing and Guo Xi, and then Shang Han said eight words expressionlessly:

"The exercise is acceptable, but the actual combat is useless!"

Guo Xi was stunned when he heard this, and before he could speak, Zhang Nan added angrily:

"Even if it works, it doesn't work!"

Yang Qing couldn't help laughing, this Zhang Nan is usually silent, but he didn't expect to have a talent for humor. Seeing that Guo Xi's face was about to open his mouth, he hurriedly grabbed his head and said:

"Xilie is not in a hurry, the younger brother thinks that although the words of Shang and Zhang are a little exaggerated, they are not unreasonable."

"Oh? But please say it in detail, and Guo will listen to it. When Guo Xi heard that there was still something to follow, he was not in a hurry.

Yang Qing poured Guo Xi a cup of mash while organizing the language in his heart. Guo Xi didn't urge, waiting for Yang Qing to tell his truth.
