The army set off and meandered in the direction of Shuozhou.

Shuozhou, the first important town in the northwest, is in sight.

Shuozhou, the first male city in the northwest, is like an ancient giant beast entrenched there, majestic, desolate, heavy, and bloody.

A group of hundreds of horsemen galloped in, raising smoke and dust in the sky.

The march of the army had already been detected by the Northwest Frontier Army, so Tang Ning immediately guessed that it was General Huaiyuan who sent someone to greet him.

Ten miles out of the city to greet each other, this etiquette is also grand, presumably the rumors in the capital have also reached the ears of General Huaiyuan, otherwise he is just a commander, even if General Huaiyuan sends someone to greet him, he will not go out of the city for ten miles to greet him.

The army stopped moving, and Tangning left the Chinese army and came to the front of the army.

Hundreds of horsemen galloped in, revealing an iron-blooded aura in the smoke and dust raised in the sky, which was the breath that had been tempered by life and death.

Although the soldiers of the Beijing camp trained by Tang Ning are elite and have been on the battlefield, the iron-blooded meaning tempered has long been eliminated in the gentle countryside of Beijing.

These hundreds of horses turned out to be unstoppable by thousands of horses, and even Tang Ning couldn't help but feel a shock in front of these hundreds of horses, worthy of being the iron horses of the border army.

If all the border army iron cavalry is as strong as this, but can only block the barbarians and cannot counterattack, how strong must the barbarians be?

Just when Tang Ning was a little distracted, hundreds of horsemen had already arrived with a fierce aura. The one at the front sat on a horse and looked a little short and fat in light armor, but it seemed to be able to hold up the whole world.

Just at first glance, Tang Ning felt that this was a battlefield warrior who crisscrossed the battlefield.

Before the person arrived, the sound came first.

A rough voice sounded: "But Lord Nanshan is commanding General Tang Ningtang?" ”

This rough voice makes people feel bold when they hear it.

Tang Ning was just about to respond with a smile, but Sun Hu behind him came back from the shock and hurriedly reminded in a low voice: "My lord, it's General Huaiyuan himself!" ”

This person turned out to be General Huaiyuan, a famous general second only to General Zhenyuan in the court!

Tang Ning turned over and dismounted, clasped his fists and saluted: "The last general will see the general!" The generals behind him also came to their senses and dismounted one after another.

Not only because General Huaiyuan has a heavy military position and high power, but also because General Huaiyuan has guarded the border town for many years, which is very respectable.

Huaiyuan's general Yao Rong jumped off his horse, came to Tang Ning in three or two steps, helped him up with both hands and said with a smile: "Why be polite, our border army doesn't have so many rules, and fighting barbarians together is a brother who has given his life." ”

Tang Ning was moved: "How can the general of labor personally go out of the city to greet him!" ”

Yao Rong laughed and said: "General Tang led the army to reinforce the border towns, so that the border army is like a tiger with wings, and it is natural to go out of the city to greet each other, if it is not for the busy military affairs, this official really wants to go out of the city for a hundred miles to greet him." ”

Yao Rong and Tang Ning laughed at Yan Yan, the generals behind Tang Ning were shocked and took it for granted, while the generals behind Yao Rong were shocked and disapproving at the same time.

It is true that Tang Ning is rumored to be the son of the emperor, but can a prince who has not been announced to the world by the emperor still be considered a prince?

Since he is not even a prince, why should the general go out of the city for ten miles to greet him? Why be so polite?

What is the identity of the general? Even if the real prince comes, the general doesn't need to go ten miles out of the city to greet him!

Although the news of the capital can also spread to the border towns, the border towns are far away from the capital after all, and not all the news can be spread to the border towns.

Moreover, the three of them became tigers, not to mention the long distance, I don't know how many people have to pass through mouths.

Therefore, most of the soldiers in the border town had the biggest impression of Tang Ning that Tang Ning was the son of the emperor, but the emperor did not issue an edict to announce it to the world.

This is a bit intriguing, if there is no recognized prince, then it is not a prince, and it is impossible for a prince who is not recognized to ascend to the throne of the prince.

Although Tang Ning jumped to a high position in the second rank at a young age, although it is rumored that Tang Ning was deeply loved by the emperor, however, he was still not a prince.

"General Tang, please enter the city!"

"General, please!"

Yao Rong rode a horse in front, Tang Ning was half a head behind, and the rest of the generals followed.

Because he had long known that there was a large army of the imperial court coming to reinforce him, Yao Rong had already arranged the camp.

Entering the city gate, Yao Rong said with a smile: "The camp has already been arranged, let Chang San accompany General Tang to arrange the camp of the army, and in the evening, the official will set up a banquet for General Tang to receive the wind and wash the dust!" ”

Chang San, whose name is very ordinary, is like an ordinary family, but he is the general soldier of Shuozhou, who really killed from the battlefield with a knife and a shot, from a small soldier to the general soldier of Shuozhou, and killed his own splendid future in the border town.

Tang Ning, who already knew something about the border town, naturally knew this person, this person was Yao Rong's confidant and favorite general, and he had a great reputation in the border town.

Although they are both second-grade, Chang San's second-grade Shuozhou general army can command much more gold than Tangning's second-grade commander.

Tang Ning hugged his fists extremely humbly and said: "There is General Lao Chang!" ”

Chang San said with a smile on his face: "Oh, General Tang is polite, General Tang can lead troops to come to the border town, that is the honor of our border town, fight the barbarians together, that is the brother of life and death, General Tang must not be polite to me Chang San." ”

I have to say that General Huaiyuan was very well prepared, and Chang San has been enthusiastically accompanied, which made the arrangement of the army very smooth.

This made Tang Ning also breathe a sigh of relief, the army came from the capital for a long journey, although it had not experienced war, but the long march was tiring enough.

It was not an easy task for the 50,000 troops to camp one after another, thanks to the help of Chang San, who was familiar with the way.

After the army set up camp, Tang Ning took the generals to inspect it, and Chang San also enthusiastically accompanied him, which made Tang Ning very grateful.

At this time, Chang San didn't have the careless appearance in front of General Huaiyuan last night, too, after all, he climbed up step by step from the bottom, how could he only know how to fight?

In addition to the generals who were stationed in the army, the generals near Shuozhou gathered in General Huaiyuan's mansion to reinforce the army in the border town.

This is the right thing to do, after all, people have traveled thousands of miles from the capital to come for reinforcements. But after knowing that General Huaiyuan personally went out of the city for ten miles to greet him, these people were a little stunned on their faces.

What kind of identity is the general, who would go ten miles out of the city to greet him? Is it possible to command and accept only a second grade?

Even if there are many rumors about that Tangning, it is rumored that he is the son of the emperor, but he is not even the body of the prince.

Since he is not a prince, then he is a second-class military general, and the general is inevitably making a little fuss.

Their border soldiers guard the border towns, pin their heads to the waistband of their pants every day to live, and work hard, even if the real prince comes, there is no need for the general to go out of the city for ten miles to greet him!
