Chapter 202 Heavy Armament Ground
"What people! Armament is heavy, no trespassing! The two patrol armor soldiers stopped Murong Sichen with their guns and snorted coldly.
Murong Sichen nodded secretly, his face expressionless: "I'm here to find General Gongsun Lie Gongsun." ”
"Do you have a token?"
Murong Sichen shook his head and signaled that he didn't, but took out a piece of jade pendant: "I was sent by His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still on the way here, so let us go first, so that we can understand some things and observe public opinion." This is the jade pendant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and Your Excellency can give it to General Gongsun for a look. ”
The two armorers looked at each other, paused, and one of the armorers took it, turned around and walked towards the school grounds.
Murong Sichen saw that he was heading in the direction of the school, not the lobby, and nodded secretly.
Not long after, the soldier came back with the jade pendant and welcomed Murong Sichen in.
Murong Sichen saw Gongsun Lie for the first time in the school grounds.
Before coming, Murong Sichen had investigated Gongsun Lie, and it was rumored that he was a good man, but the means of governing the army were a must, but he was too good at dealing with people, and he didn't have the temper of an ordinary soldier, and his sense of presence in the officialdom was very weak.
What's more, a border place like this has always been governed by both civil and military, and it is not pleasing to each other. And here, it is because Gongsun Lie is too "weak" and is suppressed so badly that there is basically nothing else except for these soldiers under his command.
Seeing Gongsun Lie, who was shirtless and training with the soldiers, Murong Sichen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
He has strong muscles, dark skin, soaked in sweat, shining with metallic luster, and his body is staggered with scars, large and small, some new and some old, which is a symbol of honor for the soldiers.
Gongsun Lie took a wet cloth towel to wipe off the sweat on his body, put on his shirt, and looked at Murong Sichen happily: "I don't know what the envoy is doing here?" ”
Murong Sichen didn't speak, the two of them had already retreated from talking, Murong Sichen told the woman's matter, and said that it was inconvenient for him to make a move for the time being, and he wanted General Gongsun to solve it on his behalf.
It's just a little thing, and Gongsun Lie has no reason to refuse.
After these trivial matters were dealt with, Murong Sichen said: "Now that the war on the border has stopped, and the fighting between the two armies has subsided, there is basically no need for the soldiers, why is the general still training with the soldiers today?" I still know the truth of raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, but along the way, other barracks are not as diligent as the generals. ”
If he hadn't known that he had come here on a temporary basis, the news would not have been leaked at all. Otherwise, Murong Sichen would have thought that Gongsun Lie had done it on purpose.
Gongsun Lie did not flatter the other party because he was the prince's envoy, nor did he underestimate the man in front of him too much, so he said with a smile: "Raising soldiers for a thousand days is one for a while, and you can't go to the battlefield to sharpen your guns, right?" The second is that it is stationed here, and there is nothing to do on weekdays, so you can follow the training on weekdays. These are the third ......"
Gongsun Lie's voice sank slightly.
Murong Sichen raised his eyebrows, obviously there was something else hidden here.
Gongsun Lie chuckled, with a hint of self-deprecation: "Actually, I'm not afraid of the messenger's jokes, and I can't hide this matter left and right, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince comes in person, I will say the same thing." ”
He sighed, but his expression was a little angry: "The envoy should also know that there is a group of bandits entrenched in this northwest all the year round, the soldiers are strong, and they usually rob the pipeline, and we have also sent troops a few times, either the number of troops is large, and no trace of the bandits can be found, or the troops are too few and eat a few ambushes, so a certain heart is also ashamed, this has been recuperating for so long, it is not where to see."
"So I can only strengthen my usual training, and then find out the traces of that nest of sand bandits, just to catch them all......"
When he heard Gongsun Lie's words, Murong Sichen was really stunned for a moment, he should know? What should he know?
Listening to Gongsun Lie's meaning, it is obvious that the sand bandits have been entrenched here for a long time, could it be that Gongsun Lie has reported it?
But the imperial court didn't receive any news at all, but ...... Murong Sichen touched his chin, according to the situation here, it is also possible that the news will be suppressed, according to the urine nature of this party, pressing the news is either that the local officials want to ensure their political performance, or ...... It's because this nest of sand bandits is domesticated.
Murong Sichen's eyes showed a hint of inquiry.
And Gongsun Lie in front of him is not like the rumors, he doesn't understand the world, or he is too much of a bun.
In a few words, he let himself know about the situation here, and he also faintly revealed some news, which was not something that Gongsun Lie could do in the rumors.
Murong Sichen's expression changed, and he said straightforwardly: "What does the general mean, now that he has found the traces of the sand bandits?" When does the general plan to send troops? ”
Gongsun Lie was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Murong Sichen to think of this, taking a deep breath, Gongsun Lie said decisively: "Indeed, not long ago, the spies finally found the nest of sand bandits, and we were about to eliminate them in one fell swoop. ”
Even if they said it, it was nothing, they originally planned to send troops tomorrow, and the whole plan was known to several high-level generals, all of whom were his henchmen, as for the prince envoy in front of him, it was obviously impossible to collude with the sand bandits.
After several failed attempts, even if his brain was not flexible, he could think that there were traitors in the barracks, but with so many soldiers, it was impossible to investigate them one by one, first, there was no time, and secondly, because it was easy to startle snakes, so after Gongsun Lie found the traces of the bandits, he did not publicize it, but formulated a plan to suppress the bandits with his henchmen.
Murong Sichen was obviously very curious: "Don't hide it from the general, I was born in the capital since I was a child, and I haven't experienced the scene of going out to fight, if the general doesn't dislike it, can you take me with you?" ”
Gongsun Lie scolded secretly, you said that you are a Huangmenlang in the capital, read your own books well, and do things for the prince, what are you doing here? Fighting a war is not child's play, and I haven't experienced it yet...... You really think this is a play house! Although it is only a bandit, how can you understand the danger of being a thin scholar?
It's really a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers! Rao was Gongsun Lie's temper, and he couldn't help but scold in his heart.
But what can he do? What Murong Sichen said was that if he didn't dislike it, not if it was convenient, this word would have blocked his back road, could he still say that he disliked it? I can't even think about it.
