After Wang Daoqi left, Gao Pu was still standing in place, and Li Xiao caught a glimpse of his rough purple face, but there was a faint layer of gray color. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It was nearly evening, and the sun was gradually setting, stretching Gao Pu's shadow very long. A gust of evening breeze that was still scorching blew the hem of his clothes, but it made his figure even more depressed.

Gao Pu suddenly looked up to the sky and sighed, and then pulled Li Xiao to continue to sit in the house.

Gao Pu, who sat down at the table again, had no intention of drinking and eating meat, he looked at the distant place outside the door with empty eyes, and began to tell Li Xiao his own story in a light tone.

Gao Pu, 31 years old this year, like You Shiwei, who was the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan at the time, is a native of Yulin, Shaanxi, and lives in Shuangshan Baojinghe Village, Weiyansui Town, Yulin. When You Shiwei served as the general of the Jianchang Battalion, Gao Pu, who was full of superb martial arts, took several fellow village partners, including Hua Ji, to seek refuge with You Shiwei, who was also a member of the Yulin Weixiang Party. You Shiwei was very happy when he saw that it was the township party who came to vote, and because he admired Gao Pu's martial arts, he chose him as his own family.

Subsequently, Gao Pu followed You Shiwei to fight everywhere, and became more and more trusted by him, and was accepted as a cronie. During the Battle of the Daling River the year before last, You Shiwei, who was then the deputy chief soldier in the middle of Shanhai, assigned Gao Pu, who had been promoted to cavalry, to lead 300 cavalry in the battalion to follow Zhang Chun, the general of the unified army, to go to the Daling River to relieve the siege.

Gao Pu saw that Li Xiao was listening carefully, and continued in a low voice: "I led the elite cavalry battalion of the headquarters, followed the superintendent army Dao Zhang Chun, the general Wu Xiang Song Wei and other generals, and formed a total of 40,000 reinforcements to go to the rescue. However, less than 14 miles away from Dalinghe City, Zhang Chun's army was defeated by more than 40 Hongyi cannons ambushed by Huang Taiji on the road ahead, and our cavalry also suffered many casualties. Zhang Chun was helpless and ordered the whole army to retreat, who knew that he was ambushed by the Houjin Tartar Zhenghong Banner Lord Daishan, my 40,000 troops were defeated, and most of the soldiers surrendered. Zhang Chun, the superintendent of the army, was captured, and the general soldiers Wu Xiang and Song Wei escaped back under the protection of their own families. I can only sigh that there are more than 300 loyal and brave cavalry in my elite cavalry battalion, and only five of them fled with me, and the rest all died. To this day, every time I think of these brothers who stirred spoons together in a rice pot before their deaths, my heart aches like a knife! ”

Gao Pu's eyes were red, and Li Xiao's face was grim, but he was also silent.

Gao Pu continued: "After I led the only five people to return, Lord You was furious when he saw that I had destroyed almost all of the entire elite cavalry battalion, and he reprimanded me and wanted to be dealt with by military law. Fortunately, I was spared the death penalty by the advice of the soldiers. But since then, I have not been liked by Lord You, and then I and the five people were organized to be sentry horses at night, saying that they were going out to investigate the military situation, but in fact, I knew that it was just Lord You who was out of sight and out of mind. In those days, I was quite depressed, buying drunk gambling money every day, Lord You became more and more disgusted with me, and finally found a reason, at the end of last year, I and the five sentry horses were transferred to this Guangning Zhongtun Station, and I have been staying in this Guangning Zhongtun Station for more than half a year. ”

Gao Pu turned his head, sneered, and said to Li Xiao again: "Li Xiao, do you know why I bumped into Wang Dodge, but Wang Dodge didn't dare to attack?" That's because Lord You Shiwei remembered my friendship and dedication to his hometown party, and after I came over, he once said to the king Dodge that he wanted him to tolerate me more and not worry about me, a martial artist, and that Wang Dodge looked at Lord You's face, so he was helpless against me. ”

Gao Pu paused, made a neck slashing motion with the palm of his hand, and said in a low voice: "If it weren't for Lord You's secret protection, I would have been cut off by Wang Daoqi's guy." Ha ha. ”

Gao Puyan laughed, but Li Xiao knew how bitter he should be in his heart.

The two ate and drank and chatted for a while, and when they saw that it was getting late, Gao Pu took Li Xiao to the sentry cavalry camp and found a room for him to rest in.

Not long after Li Xiao put down his luggage, a little sergeant brought him a waist tag carved from paulownia wood.

He saw that the front of the wooden plaque was engraved with the nine characters of "Guangning Zhongtun Sentinel Li Xiao", and the left side was engraved with the words "Guangning Zhongtun Yongzi Lu Bai picked up No. 1", and the back was engraved with the words "All the sergeants in the institute need to hang this card, and those who do not have a license are guilty according to the law, and those who borrow and borrow are guilty of the same". Li Xiao understood that this was an important evidence that he had become a sergeant of the Zhongtun Institute, and it was a big crime to lose it.

Li Xiao, who was lying on the bed, had difficulty sleeping.

He got up and looked out the window, the bright moonlight had imperceptibly spread over the earth, and there was a silvery gray silence outside, with the occasional faint sound of a watch.

After coming to this world, the things and people he encountered began to appear in his mind again.

The father who died in the early war, the mother and daughter-in-law who were killed by the Tartar slaughterhouse, Xiao Daquan Xiao Er, who ambushed the Tartar and died with him, Zu Wan'er, who was rescued by himself but had no choice but to separate, Monk An who went to Shandong to join the army to seek a future, the father and son of Zu Zeyan, who despised and worried that they had climbed their ancestors, and Gao Pu, the captain of the sentry cavalry, who is now aggrieved but regards himself as a know。。。。。。 Everyone and everything made Li Xiao feel infinitely emotional.

Li Xiao didn't know that in this silent moonlit night, when he was still sighing in his heart, in another barracks house far away, there were three people discussing behind closed doors, and the central topic of their secret discussion was Li Xiao, who had become the deputy of the Sentinel Cavalry today.

The jumping candlelight reflected a white and handsome face, but under the reflection of the jumping candlelight, this face revealed an inexplicable hideousness and resentment.

This person is Hua Ji, who arranges for the exam during the day.

"Humph! I don't know what the senior general thinks, there is a way to fight tiger brothers, father and son soldiers, he let us township party don't use, but promoted an outsider Li Xiao who was a dog to be the deputy team, this is simply a fat water flowing into the outsider's field! I Tian Wei is the first to disagree! ”

A big man with a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and a sturdy body, shouted in a low voice with an urn.

"Not really! You said that the head of the general manager is not caught in the door, we have been working hard in this Zhongtun for half a year, and finally have the opportunity to expand the military horse and promote the position. It's good for him, our brothers who came back from life and death in the Daling River battlefield with him don't need to use a Li Xiao, who has just come to join the army, as the deputy captain. Alas, Mo Ti, thinking of this, I Mo Changrong's heart was suffocated! ”

It was another stout man with a thick beard like steel needles on his lips, and when he had said this, he slammed his huge fist on the wooden table, and the candle was so startled that it almost went out.

Bi Ji looked at Tian Wei and Mo Changrong coldly, but an unpredictable smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said lightly: "Lao Tian, Lao Mo, the senior general said that Li Xiao is good at martial arts, so he let him be the deputy captain." Perhaps, the boss always thinks that we are not as good as others. ”

"No matter how good the martial arts are? There's always a first-come-first-served one. Besides, Li Xiao's archery skills are better, but it is difficult to say how his real martial arts are! Brother Hua, you and Mr. Gao are from the same village, and have always been Mr. Gao's deputy, and we have been favored by you for so long, and we have long decided in our hearts that in my heart, your Brother Hua is the most suitable candidate for vice captain. Tian Wei said anxiously.

"I also see it this way, Brother Hua, since you became the chief deputy of the senior general, you have taken good care of us, the Yulin Weixiang Party, and we have given priority to good things, and we are like a mirror in our hearts. Alas, I don't know if the senior is always confused for a while, take 10,000 steps back and say, no matter how good Li Xiao's martial arts are, he is just an outsider in Liaozhen, how can he compare to our brothers who were born and died. Mo Changrong frowned and finished speaking, but he let out a long sigh.

"Hmph, the most hateful Chen Monkey and Wang Yishou are the two people, although they are not our Yulin Guards, but they are also the only remaining brothers in the Battle of Daling River. I dragged them here tonight to discuss the matter, but they hesitated to come, and found a reason to shirk it, what a fucking coward. Tian Wei suddenly thought of the failure to win over these two people just now, and his face couldn't help but resent.

"Alas, what do you expect them to do, could it be that we can't do anything without them? In the final analysis, we still have to rely on our fellow villagers of Yulinwei, and when we have a plan, I bet they will never dare to help the outsider Li Xiao. Mo Changrong followed and said.

After listening to the statements of the two, Hua Ji remained silent on the surface, but he was happy in vain in his heart, seeing that the past favor from the two people was still quite effective.

Hua Ji let out a pretended long sigh, and then said: "Alas, the two brothers have said it, Chen Monkey and Wang Yi can't keep it, it's understandable, after all, everyone has their own ambitions, let's just leave them alone." What Hua wants to say is that it is Hua's duty to take care of the township party, and Hua's future is nothing. It's just that I'm afraid that in the future, if this outsider Li Xiao gains momentum in our sentry cavalry, I'm afraid that it will be pressed on the head of our Yulin Weixiang Party, then Hua's heart will be really uncomfortable. ”

Tian Wei stood up and said hatefully: ", if the **** Li Xiao dares to ride on Lao Tzu's head and, Lao Tzu will be the first to ask him to look good!" In short, Tian can't let him, the deputy captain, do it smoothly! ”

Mo Changrong interjected on the side: "Brother Hua, let's listen to you!" Say, what do you want our brothers to do in order to remove that Li Xiao from the position of vice captain, it's best to let this guy get out of Zhongtun! ”

Hua Ji saw these two people facing him like this, his heart was happy, he pretended to cough a few times, and then said: "Sure enough, our Yulinwei Township Party is the most united and the most reliable." If you want me to say, let this Li Xiao get out, but it's not difficult。。。。。。 ”

Hua Ji's voice lowered, Tian Wei and Mo Changrong stepped forward to listen, and gradually, the two began to nod lightly without stopping, with an unpredictable smile on their faces.
