Chapter 82 An Unexpected Visitor
"My lord, my subordinates don't know what happened in Xining, but no matter what, my subordinates will always follow my lord, as long as my lord gives me an order, my subordinates will go to the soup and fight the fire!" With a "tom", Li Guo jumped up from his seat like a rocket, and took the lead in being loyal to Li Ziyuan.
Sure enough, the blood relationship is the most effective, Li Guo has always listened more and said less when he was in a meeting, and he took the lead in expressing his position in today's unclear situation, which can be regarded as a good start.
Li Zicheng nodded, and gestured to Li Guo with his eyes, Li Guo's attitude was completely unexpected by him, the key was Qin Danian, Xie Guangze, and Song Wen, their attitude was the biggest unknown factor.
"My subordinates are willing to follow my lord!" Qin Danian didn't wait for Li Guo to sit down, and then got up to make a statement.
"My subordinates will always follow my lord!"
"The subordinates are willing to follow the adult, as long as the adult commands, go in the water and in the water, and go in the fire!" Xie Guangze's eyes rounded, and he finally got up, but his words were the most firm.
Li Zicheng has been observing the three of them with the corner of his eye, words do not mean anything, the eyes are the window of the soul, at this time, there is a plan in his heart, "Sit down," he smiled slightly: "Are you really willing to follow me?" I'm just a thousand! ”
"Adults can ask for merit for soldiers, ask for rewards, and give bereavement pensions to soldiers, which has not been seen for many years, not only subordinates, but also soldiers, and only adults and horses will look forward!" Song Wen leaned forward, wanting to get up, but in the end he just arched his hand to Li Zicheng.
"My lord even cares about the soldiers, let alone the officers like us?" Li Guo was not to be left behind, "This is probably what the ancients said about loving soldiers like sons, right?" A thousand words from his subordinates are grouped into two people: listen to orders! ”
"My lord, if there is anything, you can give an order, if the brothers are disrespectful, be willing to be a military discipline!" Qin Danian's eyes flashed with anger, and his face was already gloomy, as if the enemy was in front of him.
"Ordered? What order? Li Zicheng said with a smile: "I returned to Zhenhai Fort this time, mainly to see the effect of the brothers' drills, and secondly, Zhenhai Fort is our foundation, and there is no room for mistakes. ”
"Subordinates swear to follow your lord!" The four of them said in unison.
"Follow Lord Ben, why talk about death?" Li Zicheng smiled and pointed at everyone's heads with his fingers, "Follow Lord Ben, not only to live, but also to live better and more comfortable than before!" Then his face turned pale, "Lord Ben is about to give an order now, the 200th household of Li Guo will be stationed near the left of the official office, and the 6th and 700th households of Xie Guangze and Song Wen will be temporarily stationed in the military camp, and the 300th household of Qin Danian will participate in the drill together to maintain a state of preparation!" ”
"Yes, sir!" The four of them were busy transferring soldiers, leaving Li Zicheng sitting alone in the official office, playing with the tea cup in his hand, but his thoughts had already flown to Xining.
After thinking about it for a long time, he still had no clue, the key was that he didn't have any exact information from Xining at all, and no matter how much he planned, it was in vain.
Li Zicheng was facing an intersection, it was not that he didn't know where the road in front of him was leading, but in the fog, he didn't know where this intersection was.
With the true thoughts in his heart, he really does not want to embark on the road of no return, at least for the time being, he is in Xining mixed with the wind and water, once the triangle city is successfully built, he will have a large number of pastures on the coast of the West Sea, as well as a large number of cattle and sheep looted from the Mongols, if he can find a plain where rice and wheat can be grown, the strength will naturally be further strengthened.
Now Xiningwei, he has controlled most of the soldiers, and the individual combat ability is definitely more than the remaining two thousand households, and he has initially formed a cavalry, if God can give him a period of time......
But Li Zicheng didn't know if God would give him enough time.
"My lord, the kingdom of Ganzhou has come, and the people have entered the city and are coming to the official office."
He Xiaomi's words startled Li Zicheng, the kingdom came so fast! If you come to Xining, forget it, what are you doing in Zhenhai Fort?
If the kingdom is inspecting the military situation, it should stay in Xining, that is, to inspect Zhenhai Fort or Fuqiang Fort, and it should also be accompanied by Zhao Feng or Liang Wencheng, thinking of this, Li Zicheng asked: "Is there anyone in Weili who is accompanied?" ”
"No, sir."
"No?" Li Zicheng frowned, it seems that the person who came is really not good, but what does the kingdom want to do when he finds himself? I didn't offend him, and I didn't have anything to attract his attention, Ganzhou and Xining are hundreds of miles apart, and asked, "How many people did he bring?" ”
"There are a total of forty soldiers, all of them with bright light armor and spears, which should be his own soldiers."
There are only forty people, even if it is his own soldiers, the combat effectiveness is stronger, it will not be strong, he has four hundred soldiers here, especially Li Guo's cavalry, although the training time is short, it is not good to deal with the Mongolian cavalry, but against the infantry, it should have a certain advantage, and he hurriedly got up and said: "I will go to meet the kingdom, you go and tell Li Guo, so and so ......."
"Yes, sir." He Xiaomi turned around, quickly walked out of the official office, and disappeared into the cracks in the walls on both sides.
Li Zicheng took Ma Youshui, and just after two hundred steps out of the official office, he saw a neat Mingguang armor in front of him, and the person headed by him was the Ganzhou General Kingdom.
"Li Zicheng, a subordinate of Xining Qianhu, knock to see your lord!" Li Zicheng stepped forward quickly and knelt in front of the kingdom's official boots.
"Haha, self-contained, rusty, isn't it? You are originally one of the hundred households of my Ganzhou Left Guard, and now that you have come to Xining for promotion, you have forgotten your origin? Wang Guo's hearty laughter, which really had the demeanor of a general, helped Li Zicheng to get up.
"The subordinates are in Ganzhou, and they are all supported by adults, how can they forget their roots?" Li Zicheng was secretly happy in his heart, it seemed that the kingdom was not good for him, maybe he was thinking too much, or the rumored soldier was not Liang Wencheng's subordinate at all.
Wang Guo smiled slightly, "Zicheng, since you won't forget your roots, then Lord Ben is here, why don't you let me enter the official office and drink a cup of hot tea?" Along the way, I've sweated two big bowls, haha......"
"When the subordinates saw the adults at first glance, they were excited for a while, and the subordinates ......" Li Zicheng bowed down and pointed forward with his right hand, "My lord, please!" ”
The kingdom was not polite, he put his hands behind his back, raised his head and chest, and looked like a general who had returned to the camp victoriously, he walked in front of Li Zicheng, and when he arrived at the door of the official office, he waved his hand to let the soldiers stay, and entered the official office alone.
Li Zicheng's heart sank, which one is this kingdom playing?
When the kingdom sat down on the main seat, Li Zichengfang sat down opposite the side head, Ma Youshui quickly served tea, Li Zicheng waved his hand, and then gestured with his eyes, Ma Youshui saluted the two, turned around and went out, and closed the door of the official office.
"Lord Wang, Zhenhai Fort is too small and too poor, this little tea is not worthy of the eyes of adults......"
Wang Guo didn't look at the tea cup, but looked at Li Zicheng, "Zicheng, do you think that Lord Ben came to Xining from Ganzhou, and came to Zhenhai Fort under the scorching sun, just for your tea?" ”
"What do you mean ......" Li Zicheng tentatively, only by figuring out the meaning of the kingdom can he take corresponding countermeasures, he has devised countless options, including the worst kind, until the end, he will definitely not make the most unwilling choice.
Wang Guo said coldly: "Zicheng, since you saw Lord Ben, you searched among Lord Ben's personal soldiers, how is it, have you found it?" ”
"My lord, it is ...... "......Li Zicheng squeaked and whined, but he sighed secretly in his heart, this kingdom is really not an idle meal, a casual glance, but he completely saw through his thoughts, it seems that he has to deal with it carefully, he can only wait, wait for the kingdom to reveal his intentions.
"Zicheng, I know what you're looking for," a hint of pride flashed across the kingdom's face, "Don't hide it, that Liu Song, he is now among Lord Ben's personal soldiers." ”
"Liu Song?" Li Zicheng almost screamed, that Wang Anping's ranger has been missing for two or three months, he thought he was killed by the Mongols, or deserted, who knew that he actually returned to Ganzhou, it turned out that he was really the person who was placed by the kingdom beside him, Li Zicheng faintly felt that something was wrong, but where was it, but he couldn't figure it out for a while, and asked himself, it seemed that he hadn't done anything to live in the kingdom.
It is said that man is the most complex animal, which is not bad at all, he can defeat the Mongols, but in the intrigue of the Han people, he is defeated in a mess, and he can't even find out who the opponent is.
Although Li Zicheng tried his best to think about it, he still couldn't figure out the kingdom's hole cards for Liu Song's matter, since the kingdom took the initiative to mention Liu Song's matter, maybe it wasn't a bad thing, don't be too nervous, his nervousness, I'm afraid it was a rumor from Liang Wencheng, but Liang Wencheng's words were unknown, and he couldn't make a judgment to prepare.
"Don't talk about them for the time being," Wang Guoda waved his hand and changed the subject, "Zicheng, how about it, in Xining, you are still sincere?" ”
Li Zicheng said vaguely: "Xining Wei knows that his subordinates are from Ganzhou, and he is not bad to his subordinates!" ”
"Zicheng, don't put gold on the old man's face, the old man doesn't have such a big face," in fact, the kingdom has such a big face, even he doesn't know, the key is that he didn't entrust Li Zicheng to the main leaders of Xining Wei at all, "Liu Song told me, when you first came to Xining, not only did you not give armor, weapons, and silver, but even the food was only ten stones, and only more than 100 people let you settle in Zhenhai Fort, hey, completely treat you as abandoned soldiers!" ”
Xiningwei did regard himself as an abandoned soldier at that time, but what about Ganzhou, didn't he treat himself as an abandoned soldier in the same way? The recruits who had only been trained for two months, and even the weapons were white-pole guns, so they asked more than 100 soldiers to reinforce Xining, and used their flesh and blood to block the Mongol cavalry, either being trampled to death by the war horses in battle, or running away and being cut off from behind by the Mongols, if not themselves......
Seeing that Li Zicheng was silent for a long time, the kingdom thought that Li Zicheng was moved, and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "How is it, do you want to go back to Ganzhou?" ”
"Back to Ganzhou?" Li Zicheng didn't understand the meaning of the kingdom for a while, so he had to use the word "drag", "But did Xining Weiken let his subordinates leave?" ”
