Chapter 41 Promoted to Jiaxun but Killed

After Xu Zhen led the team back, it received great attention, people with a heart asked around, and people without a heart could also learn about Xu Zhen's deeds, although the credit was exploited layer by layer, but the army knew that the main owner of the search for Tuyuhun's main force to go deep into Qilian Mountain was this rookie brigade commander!

Li Daozong didn't bother to pay attention to the rumors in the army, let alone meet Xu Zhen in person, just let his team recuperate, but what he didn't expect was that he met Xu Zhen the next day.

Because the reward from above has been handed down, but there is a slight discrepancy with what Li Daozong reported, which makes him more vigilant and uneasy, and he already feels that things are slowly out of his control!

Xu Zhen came to see Li Daozong, only to find that Li Mingda and Li Wushuang were present, and he already had some bad premonitions in his heart, Li Daozong did not sell Guanzi, and after Xu Zhen saw the courtesy, he let him sit on the stool before he spoke.

"The old man doesn't go around the bend anymore, my original intention is to let you escort the princess back to Chang'an, away from the battlefield, so that the little girl rushed over, at first I asked for merit, and found a lieutenant position for you, but I can lead three hundred soldiers, and your two hundred elites, plus my hundred personal soldiers, can ensure that Her Royal Highness the princess returns to Beijing safely, but..."

Li Daozong bowed slightly, glanced at Li Mingda, and continued: "However, the military department Shangshu Hou Junji recommended meritorious service in the book, and Daominger's merits are not lacking in praise, saying that the army is new, and it can be a humerus in the future, hoping that the imperial court will be good at cultivating Yunyun, and only after the merit is rewarded will I know that the imperial court has made an exception to promote you to the captain of Guoyi, and the captain of the cavalry, this is an extraordinary grace, and it is rare, probably the war is imminent, and the imperial court also wants to inspire many soldiers..."

Knowing his father Mo Ruonu, Li Wushuang saw that his father's face was pale, and immediately asked: "Isn't this a good thing, it just happens to be cheaper, the brigade commander who has just entered the stream has been promoted directly from the sixth grade, and has added a medal, how many people can't dream of it!" ”

Li Wushuang pouted at Xu Zhen, she didn't intend to see the iron wrench on Xu Zhen's finger, and she gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart, in her eyes, Xu Zhen was the evil wolf who deceived Li Mingda's young heart!

Xu Zhen didn't bother to pay attention to Li Wushuang, because he had already heard the clue from Li Daozong's tone, there was definitely no such cheap thing in this world, and even if there were, after getting involved with Hou Junji, it was estimated that it would not be a good thing.

Sure enough, Li Daozong sighed, looked at Li Mingda with some embarrassment and said: "A good thing is a good thing, but the upper authorities have already issued an order to let Xu Zhen lead a thousand troops and transfer them to the army of Li Jing in Ganzhou to obey the orders to assist in the defense, so that the matter of escorting Her Royal Highness the princess back to Beijing can only be discussed in the long run..."

Xu Zhen gasped, subconsciously patted the case and said angrily: "What a move!" ”

Li Wushuang was taken aback, and glanced at Xu Zhen again, despising the other party's rudeness, which one here is not several floors taller than him? Dare to slap the table!

On the other hand, Li Mingda was much calmer, and when she heard Li Daozong say that she would let Xu Zhen escort her back to Beijing, she was also in ecstasy, but when she heard that Hou Junji took the initiative to promote Xu Zhen, she already felt that something was not right.

Sure enough, the old fox didn't have any good intentions!

He had already seen that Li Daozong didn't dare to trust others, and Li Mingda was only willing to entrust his own safety to Xu Zhen, as long as Xu Zhen was transferred to Ganzhou, where the war was most fierce, Li Daozong would never dare to use others to escort Li Mingda!

If Li Mingda stays in Li Daozong's army, after the two armies converge, Hou Junji's manpower will be immediately inserted, and unless Li Mingda follows Li Daozong closely, who dares to guarantee that she will be fine?

And if Li Mingda follows Xu Zhen to Ganzhou, although Hou Junji is beyond the reach of the whip, once the Tuyuhun people really bypass Qilian Mountain, then Ganzhou will be a war land, and in the chaos of the war, the city may not be guaranteed, and Li Mingda's situation is not much better than staying on Li Daozong's side.

If Xu Zhen disobeyed the order and secretly escorted Li Mingda back to Beijing, the military would be able to kill them on the way in the name of chasing them away, how could he return to Chang'an?

Even if they are really allowed to return to Chang'an, this newly sealed newcomer in the military world will not be able to hold their heads up in the future, and besides, it is even more impossible for Chang'an to let them into Beijing!

Hou Junji's strategy can be described as exhaustive, killing many birds with one stone, leading Xu Zhen's nose to go, no matter how he chooses, he can't escape his Hou Junji's calculations!

Xu Zhen knew that he was in a bad state, and hurriedly apologized and clenched his fists, but Li Daozong understood Xu Zhen's reaction very well, waved his hand and said: "The matter has come to this, I want to know, Xu Zhen, what should you do?" ”

Hearing Li Daozong's question, Xu Zhen was also a little helpless and embarrassed, the military order was dead, and Ganzhou was bound to go, and he could only hope that after arriving in Ganzhou, he would be able to survive the war with the help of the glory of the military god Li Jing.

However, Li Mingda is more difficult to deal with, if he takes her to Ganzhou, with Li Jing's strength, he should be able to keep her, but if the Tuyuhun people defeat the entire Ganzhou, it will be very troublesome.

It is no wonder that Hou Jun proposed to let Li Jing defend Ganzhou alone, but he and Li Daozong took the opportunity to go behind enemy lines and dig up Tuyuhun's lair, so that all the military merits are theirs, and after the lair is beaten, Tuyuhun will lose its foundation, and they will inevitably fight to take Ganzhou!

Li Jing, who has few defeats, is already sixty and three at this time, if he loses Ganzhou this time, it can be regarded as a late festival, so it also makes Hou Junji relieve the hatred in his heart, who let Li Jing, an old immortal, rob the position of the main general this time?

Li Daozong threw the problem to Xu Zhen, but Xu Zhen threw the problem to Li Mingda again.

"Girl, this matter is related to your life and death, or you decide for yourself..."Xu really wanted to say this, but he came to his senses, and his mouth became: "Your Royal Highness Princess, it is a matter of life and death, it is better for you to decide..."

Li Wushuang wanted to scold Xu Zhen for not taking responsibility, but she knew that her father was burdened, so how could she blame Xu Zhen for not being a man?

The atmosphere suddenly became dull, and after a long silence, Li Mingda finally raised his head, bit his lower lip and said to Xu Zhen: "I... I'll go to Ganzhou with you! ”

Although Li Daozong had expected it, he was still a little surprised when he heard Li Mingda say it himself, it seems that this little girl's dependence on Xu Zhen is indeed very profound, he can think of this, I believe Hou Junji has already thought of this, Xu Zhen and Li Mingda's trip to Ganzhou is a bit fierce and auspicious...

Li Wushuang couldn't see the key, he thought that Li Mingda would follow her to stay with his father, but when he heard her say that she was going to go to Ganzhou with Xu Liar, he immediately dissuaded: "Sister Er!" You... You have to think clearly, there is going to be a war there, maybe the wild captives of Tuyuhun have already arrived in the city! ”

Li Mingda seemed to be proud of the brave decision he made, and let out a long sigh of relief, and then said to Li Wushuang with a smile: "Sister, don't worry, I practice martial arts every day, whoever dares to disadvantage me must ask me about the knife and crossbow in my hand!" ”

She has been following Xu Zhen's team for a long time, and she has been somewhat tainted with the pride of her brothers, although her words are a little naΓ―ve and ridiculous, but they are admirable.

Li Wushuang cast a look at his father for help, but the latter's face was calm, and after gritting his teeth, Li Wushuang grabbed Li Mingda's hand and said resolutely: "Since my son has decided, that sister naturally wants to accompany you!" With your sister here, no one can bully you! ”

Hearing that his daughter was going to accompany him, Li Daozong's heart jumped, but he quickly suppressed it and cast his eyes at Xu Zhen, who secretly smiled bitterly, and could only leave the table and salute: "Xu will definitely live up to His Highness's trust!" ”

Yu Yu returned to the camp, and before Xu Zhen could discuss with Zhang Jiunian, the other party had already put a lot of questions on the table.

First of all, the military confiscated all the trophies, and the brothers who were accustomed to scimitar horse warfare all changed into first-class standard equipment, although the quality is not bad, but it is naturally impossible to use it.

The second is about the settlement of the Sall people, they are not Tang people, and it is a problem to want to join the army, although they want to be able to use the military and the party members, but it is clear that Xu Zhen does not have such power.

The former overturned the Rouran people, which has made the generals in the army dissatisfied, making Xu Zhen a thorn in the side of many people, and now the generals have seen the bravery of the Salle people, and naturally want to take this power for their own use.

Xu Zhen had already considered this possibility, since Li Daozong was on the side of the princess, he would naturally seek this convenience for himself, and he believed that the brothers would not be separated.

But Li Daozong couldn't stop the arrangement of the imperial court, and if Hou Junji made another move, the trouble would be even greater.

Sure enough, Xu Zhen and Zhang Jiunian have not yet discussed the results, and the official military order has been issued, although Xu Zhen has been promoted to Guoyi Lieutenant and led a thousand troops, but the vacancy of the lieutenant under his command has been locked up by two, and these two people are Hou Poyu and Zhang Shenzhi!

Hou Junji can be said to have calculated all the possibilities, and even his own son and henchmen were placed in Xu Zhen's team, so that Mo said that he could gain a foothold in Ganzhou, and Xu Zhen's desire to successfully control this thousand teams became a problem, not to mention how difficult the trip to Ganzhou was.

If you can't reach Ganzhou on time and delay the fighter, you will have to deal with it according to military law!

As soon as the trouble came up, it seemed that it couldn't be broken, and it was enough to be irritable here, but Li Deqian came to the door again, saying that there was a problem with the project on Yan Lide's side, and the drawings handed over to him by Xu Zhen had successfully manufactured the finished product, but on the day of the experiment, there were nearly fifty accidental injuries, and Xu Zhen had to rush to Ganzhou as soon as possible, otherwise it was a question whether Ganzhou could hold it!

Xu Zhen was a head or two at this time, but time waited for no one, and he couldn't hesitate to do so, so he hurriedly asked Zhang Jiunian to go down and prepare for his life, and he was about to embark on a trip to Ganzhou.

One person got the Taoist chicken dog ascended to heaven, Zhou Cang and Gao Heshu and others were promoted to military positions, and even Yinzong and others got military status, and also served as a brigade commander, responsible for restraining and managing the people of Sale, everyone didn't know what was going on, and when they heard that they were going to Ganzhou to fight, their hearts suddenly became hot, but they didn't know that Xu Zhen was already so worried that his hair was white.
