At this time, the tents in the camp have basically been set up, and while the soldiers arranged the camp to reject horses and antlers, the men and soldiers buried the pot to make rice. Wisps of cooking smoke floated up into the air.

In one of the most exquisite tents in the center, Cai Ying's face showed disgust, he stretched out his hand and pushed the lacquer plate full of roasted mutton aside, and the plates on the table were touched indiscriminately, and he didn't even touch a bite of the fresh fruits and vegetables and vegetarian fried side dishes in it.

Although the dishes prepared for Cai Yan were all cooks he brought from Bianjing, the roasted mutton was all salted meat during the march, and Cai Yan only tasted two or three bites, and felt that the meat food he tasted in Bianjing was not as delicious, which made him feel that he had no appetite when he landed.

Anyway, Cai Jing also grew up in Cai Jing's mansion, Cai Jing in order to cater to the pleasure of the official family put forward the "Feng Heng Yu Da" said, originally Cai Mansion in the clothing, food, housing and transportation is extremely luxurious, his son Cai Jing wants to eat crab roe steamed buns, a meal can spend more than 1,300 runs, usually eat a bowl of soup to kill hundreds of quails is also a common thing, before and after taking care of Cai Ying's living and eating there are hundreds of domestic servants and maids, but now in the barren mountains and mountains to eat such unpalatable roasted meat, how can this teach Cai Yan to eat?

Rong Ma is handsome, and it is really hard...... That's it, my father's arrangement also has a deep meaning, and I just have to endure it for a while.

Cai Yan thought to himself with a cold face, but his entourage and cronies in the camp tent showed a look of panic, and said loudly: "The fifth son... This ......"

"Forget it, I don't have an appetite. Calling people to go to the nearby river to fetch water, this boat and car labor, I want to bathe and relieve fatigue. ”

Cai Yan gave the order, and suddenly asked again: "Where is Deputy Superintendent Xiao now?" ”

Hearing this, the entourage pursed his lips and replied to Cai Ying: "Deputy Supervisor Xiao is naturally still gathering generals at the moment to discuss matters such as daily marching, camping, and defense. ”

Cai Yan snorted coldly when he heard this, and said in his heart that he was still in the Great Song Dynasty, and it was not the front-line battlefield of Song and Xia, and now there was not even a single thief, so Xiao Tang was just a deputy prison officer, and it was not his turn to go to battle and kill in this war, but he camped, armed, drilled, and supervised all day long...... But not grandstanding?

However, since Cai Jing returned to Cai's mansion that day, Xiao Tang deliberately shirked the appointment of the official family, and seemed unwilling to rush to the side court as his Cai Ying's escort to inform his son Cai Jing of other matters, the powerful and skilled minister only thought about it for a while, and said: "That Xiao Tang is new to important positions, and he has the age of being serious and strong, and he is not uncommon in the military and military of the military family. This son is not deep and can't hold his breath, so there is no need to worry, since he is still needed at this time, my son does not have to fight with him. If that Xiao Tang really has any different intentions...... Looking at his virtual and real movements, there is also a way to rectify him. ”

Cai Ying strictly followed Cai Jing's wishes, and according to the officialdom and Xiao Tang's hypocrisy, it was also his unauthorized means.

During the march, although Xiao Tang treated Cai Yan very politely, it was obvious that he did not intend to deliberately befriend him, who was in the government minister's mansion. During this period of time, the two did not meet each other, and they both went their own way.

At this moment, Cai Ying suddenly heard a commotion outside the camp tent, and even an entourage reported in the account: "Fifth son, the military department of Yan'an Mansion has sent soldiers and horses to pick up and guide the army with Deputy Superintendent Xiao. ”

Cai Yan snorted, then straightened his clothes and walked towards the outside of the tent.

The whining horn suddenly sounded, the horses neighed, and the armor clanged. A group of horse troops galloped into the gate of the newly set up camp, and quickly lined up in a neat line in the camp, and the end was swift and neat, but seeing the military Jian standing solemnly, revealing a dignified and majestic demeanor, looking at its military appearance, it was known that this army was more elite than the official army sent by Gyeonggi and Jingxi Road in the Central Plains.

At this time, Xiao Tang had to report to the military officials, and he also led the generals to go out, but seeing that the troops sent from the Western Army to meet them were all like steel casts, riding on the high-standing horses and lining up early, he also secretly cheered, and secretly said: Just look at this meteorological majesty and military appearance, the long-experienced troops under the jurisdiction of the Western Army are indeed too much better than the military divisions of other state capitals.

As for the little officials and stewards accompanying Cai Ying, they each shrunk their necks and bent their bodies in the cold weather, and complained in a low voice, but the honor guard to welcome Cai Wugongzi was late, and Cai Yan saw the dust raised by the galloping war horse, he frowned slightly, and took out a white handkerchief to block his mouth and nose, complaining in his heart that the Wupifu really didn't know how to be polite. When he saw the important ministers of the court, he should have led the horse on foot, just because of the guilt of neglecting the officials, this Ganqiu Ba could not bear it.

And the bearded man who came to meet Cai Yan and Xiao Tang in the Western Army soldiers and horses shook the reins of his horse again, and he rode straight forward, and the generals behind him had to follow him like the stars holding the moon. It's just that when the cavalry rushed in front of Xiao Tang and Cai Ying, some officers and soldiers of the Western Army hurriedly rolled their saddles and fell off their horses, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute them.

It's just that the bearded officer was facing the sky from his nostrils, and his sharp eyes swept forward a few times, when his gaze swept over Xiao Tang, and when he saw Cai Yan with an impatient face, as if he couldn't be contaminated with a little smoke and dust, the bearded officer sighed, and the disdain on his face was even more overflowing. Although he was ordered to come to pick up the two supervisors appointed by the official family to supervise the war in the border court, he was still riding on a horse at this time, but Lai Yangyang arched his hand and said: "Pei Zhong, the commander of the command of the Dezhou Command Department of Yan Lu Lu, came to receive the prison army sent by the DPRK at the behest of Yang Xianggongjun. ”

Seeing that a mere commander dared to snub himself like this, Rao is Cai Yan's ability to cultivate qi was very good, and at this time, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. Cai Yan snorted heavily, but before he could reprimand, Xiao Tang took the lead and stepped forward and said: "It turned out to be Pei Tong, I, Xiao Tang and Cai Zhiji, rushed to the border court by the imperial decree of the official family, I don't know where the old and small breeds are stationed with General Liu now?" ”

Over the years, Xiao Tang has also dealt with many rough and straight men in the army, and he also knows that this kind of upright and arrogant martial artist in the Western Army is not uncommon, although with Xiao Tang's current status, of course, there is no need to tolerate this Pei system, but Xiao Tang has always felt that dealing with these reckless martial artists is far easier than dealing with those courtiers in the court.

"You are Xiao Jieshuai?"

Pei Zhong fell on the horse at this time and owed slightly, and said: "I have also heard of the name of Kai, at present, the old and small species are slightly led by Xianggong to build a fortress in the Hulu River, and Liu Xianggong led the troops and horses to camp in the Wuding River, and I don't know anything else, after arriving at Yan'an Mansion, it is not too late for Xiao Jieshuai to make an inquiry." ”

That Pei Zhong is not good at playing an official tone to welcome Shangguan, he even put Cai Yan aside, and only shouted to call a general under his command to receive Xiao Tang, Cai Ying and other prison generals sent by Bianjing, and then led a group of soldiers and horses to run out of the gate again.

As for the general under Pei Zhong's command, he was very polite and polite, he stepped forward and bowed to Cai Yan who was pale, Xiao Tang saw that Cai Yan who was angry and hated in his heart was sinking like water, but he regarded this general as nothing, so he intentionally or unintentionally asked: "I don't know what to call this general?" ”

When the general heard this, he immediately said, "How dare you bother Xiao Jieshuai to ask?" It's a despicable job! The commander of the Dezhou Commanding Envoy Si Bujun and Wu Jinqing met with the two supervisors. ”
