Volume 2 Conquest and Killing Chapter 104
King Yu has returned to Yecang City three days ago, the previous two battles caused a certain loss of the Xuanjia army, and now the Great Liang and the Tang Dynasty have renewed friction, and the rectification of the army is even more imminent. As soon as he returned to the barracks, King Yu immediately held several meetings of generals of different ranks, and also promoted the ranks of some generals stationed in Yecang, including Duan Lang, who was promoted to captain from the eighth rank for his heroic performance in several small-scale attacks by the Xiliang stragglers.
It has been a year since Xuan Shaoning left Mobei, and this time he came back to have a good reunion with Duan Lang and Huo Qing, but he had no choice but to have a heavy task on his shoulders, and he didn't get out of his body for many days. The Xiangyong he had recruited from Pingzhou and Dengzhou had already assembled in Yecang City, and even though Xuan Shaoning repeatedly refused, King Yu still insisted on giving him full authority to train these recruits.
"Brother Xuan!" Ji Wenhan excitedly threw himself into Xuan Shaoning's arms, "I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you have made military merits again!" ”
Xuan Shaoning obviously felt that Ji Wenhan's height had increased compared to the previous time, and it was almost to his jaw, relying on the food and training of the Xuanjia Military Camp, Ji Wenhan had already become a handsome young man with a ruddy complexion and a sturdy body. He touched this young, hairy head with a smile, and said like a big brother: "I haven't seen you for more than half a year, and you have grown taller again!" Are you still used to it here? ”
"Not used to it!"
"Huh?"
"I'm not used to Brother Xuan's absence!"
"You kid, you've learned to slip away!" Xuan Shaoning scolded with a smile, raised his eyes and saw Xu Chengxian, dressed in cloth, even more bookish, with a bit of perseverance, ruddy, and softness between his eyebrows, he said to Ji Wenhan: "In addition to his mouth, don't you quickly show you the other skills you have learned, Brother Xuan!" ”
"Good!" Ji Wenhan jumped away from a person, and immediately tied up the horse step, with a straight waist, flat feet, parallel legs, and a good look, so he insisted on a small half-pillar of incense for a long time and then a forward pounce, and when the body was about to touch the ground, there was a forward roll, and the whole person was flexible like a loach rolling back and forth, and finally curled up the whole body into a ball, and then ejected it like a spring, and landed steadily after rotating in the air for two and a half weeks.
"Good foundation!" Xuan Shaoning couldn't help but applaud, the unique flexibility of the teenager was not envied even if he was envious, "You haven't been in the Xuanjia military camp in vain for half a year!" ”
"We have been trained by Commander Pei since we entered the barracks, and he was divided into two alternate battalions according to our physique and age, one is an adult battalion and the other is a juvenile battalion. Xu Chengxian explained to Xuan Shaoning, and the sense of surprise in Xuan Shaoning's heart rose again, indeed, after watching Ji Wenhan's performance, he was wondering why he had only learned such a basic kung fu foundation in half a year, and before he could ask, Xu Chengxian actually gave a reasonable explanation.
This is not the first time, could it be that he can really peek into his heart? At this time, Xuan Shaoning had already learned to hide his expression, he still listened to Xu Chengxian's explanation with a smile, and showed a sudden realization.
"Brother Xuan, now that you're back, will you train us in the future?"
"You've not only become stronger, you've also learned wisely."
"Wow, that's awesome! I want to be like Brother Xuan, learn good skills, go into battle to kill the enemy, and earn military exploits! ”
"Don't rush to fight for success, you first have to learn how to protect yourself."
"Then our two reserve battalions belong to you for training?" Xu Chengxian asked.
Xuan Shaoning nodded, "The general did arrange it this way, but Pei commanded the sub-battalion and also had his reasons, if the two battalions trained together, there would be a conflict, I would make it clear to the general, and then send people to join me." ”
Huo Qing's daily training was particularly hard, and the other soldiers had already rested, and he was still fighting on the school field until he was so tired that he collapsed to the ground. This night, the temperature in Mobei had reached the point where it turned into ice, but Huo Qing was still sweating and steaming all over his body.
Sou! A steel knife slammed into the ground, and the whole person lay on his back, allowing the cold to spread from his back to his whole body. While panting, there are droplets of water dripping from his cheeks, are they tears? Is it Khan? Huo Qing himself couldn't tell the difference, he just knew that now the distance between him and his classmates was getting farther and farther away, and he was also a disciple of Qingshan Academy, and he was the only one in this Xuanjia military camp who still had no military merits and was still a soldier.
I'm not convinced! In terms of martial arts and strategy, I am no worse than them! Why don't you even give me a chance to perform! Why!
Even if he longed to shout in his heart and vent his grievances that had accumulated for many years, Huo Qing still held back, but patience was too torturous, he never forgot the grand occasion when the Xuanjia Army returned to the camp that day: Shi Gong Zhengyuan and Ling Feiyan were among them, they were rewarded by Emperor Liang as the heroes of the Hu eradication, and were envied by the robes, even Duan Lang, who failed to participate in the battle like himself, was promoted to the military rank, not to mention Xuan Shaoning, he was the first to obtain the military rank, and now he is the one with the highest military rank, The general also valued him very much, and he didn't return to Yecang City with the general until a few days ago, how many people can have this honor?
What's even more serious is that since the classmates returned to Yecang City, their attitude towards themselves has been a little bit like leaving, and the original tradition of getting together after every battle has also been abandoned, Xuan Shaoning has been back for many days, but neither he, Shi Gong Zhengyuan, nor Ling Feiyan took the initiative to come to him to get together. Yes, they already look down on me! Huo Qing found a reasonable reason for himself in his heart. Thinking of this, tears began to overflow clearly, his fists clenched into a sound, and he wanted to sob, but he desperately controlled himself and let all the bitterness swallow to the bottom of his heart.
"In such a cold night, I'm not afraid of the wind chill!"
Hearing the voice, Huo Qing reflexively jumped up on the spot, quickly wiped away the tears, turned around and saw that it was Yang Jing, and hurriedly saluted: "Golden Armor Guard Huo Qing see Yang Duwei!" ”
Yang Jing waved his hand, walked in, and carefully looked at Huo Qing for a while, until Huo Qing's hairs were about to stand up.
"Why is the iron-blooded man crying here alone?"
"No....... Weekend...... Nope."
"It's just you and me here, and I'm not a person who speaks right and wrong, you can rest assured."
"Back to Yang Duwei, the last general is just ..... I just miss my hometown."
"Oh? I see, then I can't help, I thought you were worried about the future, then I can still help. ”
Yang Jing turned around and wanted to leave, but his words obviously stimulated Huo Qing, Huo Qing's eyes widened, and he wanted to speak several times, until he saw Yang Jing walking a little far, and then shouted loudly: "Yang Duwei!" Weekend..... There will be something to ask for! ”
Yang Jing pursed his lips and smiled, then turned around and walked back to Huo Qing's side solemnly, and asked, "What's the matter?" But it doesn't hurt to say it! ”
"Actually...... In fact, the last general is not because he misses his hometown. ”
"To put it bluntly, I don't like to beat around the bush!"
"Yes! The last general is indeed for the future, as Yang Duwei said! ”
"You train harder than others, and your foundation is not inferior to others, and as a disciple of Qingshan Academy, you are not inferior to your classmates, what you lack is just an opportunity!"
"Exactly! The last general trained hard so that he could go to the battlefield and make meritorious contributions, but ...... But ......"
"I'll just ask you if you're willing to serve me?"
"The last general is willing!"
"Good! You have to keep your mouth shut about today's things, and I will give you a chance to make meritorious contributions in the future! ”
"The last general is at the disposal of Yang Duwei!"
The moment Huo Qing knelt down on one knee, the blood in his whole body faintly showed signs of boiling, and he gritted his teeth and told himself that he must get ahead.
"What you said makes sense, since that's the case, then let Si Heng and Duan Lang help you, and you will be fully responsible for all matters in the alternate camp!" King Yu readily agreed to Xuan Shaoning's request to increase manpower.
Walking out of the general's mansion, Xuan Shaoning couldn't wait to tell Duan Lang and Si Heng the news, although the military order was not finally issued, but Si Heng still shouted to celebrate, of course, the celebration was naturally indispensable to Ling Scarlet. Xuan Shaoning also remembered that it was time to find Master Gong Zhengyuan, Huo Qing and Rouge to get together together, and Shi Gong Zhengyuan and Rouge naturally didn't have a problem, so they immediately agreed, and the group immediately went to Jinjiawei to find Huo Qing.
Huo Qing, who was resting on the side of the schoolyard, saw Xuan Shaoning and his party walking in his direction from a distance, talking and laughing in his direction, before last night, he would immediately run over happily to join them when he saw this scene, but after last night, he had no interest in joining at this moment, seeing them getting closer and closer, Huo Qing stood up and returned to the school field to continue to dance with knives and guns.
"Huo Qing!" Before Xuan Shaoning could speak, Si Heng took the lead in roaring, speaking of which, he was the only one in this group who didn't know Huo Qing.
"Do you know who it is? Just shouting so rashly! Ling Scarlet Yan said.
Si Heng stuck out his tongue and quibbled: "There is only one Huo Qing in this golden armor camp, if I shout, naturally someone will agree!" ”
Huo Qing heard someone shouting to him, so he stopped training and turned around, giving a surprised expression, "You guys are here!" ”
"Huo Qing!" Xuan Shaoning took the lead in jumping onto the school field, stretched out his hand and vigorously beat Huo Qing's hard chest muscles like a stone, and praised: "I haven't seen you for more than half a year, your body is really iron-beaten!" ”
Si Heng came up again and introduced him very familiarly: "You are Huo Qing, hello, I am Si Heng, and I made friends with them on the battlefield!" As he spoke, he gave Huo Qing a hug, which made the other party a little at a loss.
Ling Feiyan couldn't bear it anymore, and stepped forward to grab Si Heng's ear, not caring at all about his shouts and the eyes of others, and he was stunned to leave Si Heng away from a person's distance before letting go. This scene provoked Duan Lang and Shi Gong Zhengyuan couldn't help laughing, but Xuan Shaoning was used to the fight between the two, and continued: "I haven't seen each other for a long time, I should have called you to get together as soon as I returned to the barracks, but I was entangled in everything, and I just found an opportunity today, so I wanted to come to you for a get-together." ”
Seeing Xuan Shaoning's sincere eyes, Shi Gong Zhengyuan and Duan Lang's bright smiles, Ling Feiyan's fight with the familiar guy named Si Heng, there was a warm current flowing in his heart, this felt like everyone was playing together in Qingshan Academy, and he was about to say yes, but he glanced behind him with a ghostly look, and happened to meet the gaze from Yang Jing, which was cold and stern, and signaled him to refuse, Huo Qing gritted his teeth and said: "I'm sorry, everyone, I still have to continue training, I can't get together with you at this time, so let's do it another day! ”
Xuan Shaoning and the others were obviously a little disappointed, Si Heng shook off Ling Feiyan and ran over to explain: "Since you still have training tasks with you, then don't delay, we are all in the same military camp, and there will be opportunities in the future!" ”
Huo Qing nodded vigorously, glanced at a few classmates, turned around and returned to the school to start training. It wasn't a big deal, a few people left, and when they were far away, Huo Qing still stopped and looked back, but heard Yang Jing's voice coming into his ears, "What's the matter with a party, when your identity can match or even surpass them, you have a chance!" ”
