Chapter 34: Zhiyang
Guangwu County is one hundred and twenty miles west of Jincheng, and there are three counties of Lingju, Zhiyang and Yongdeng, which are distributed vertically in the east-west direction. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoIn addition to the 5,000 defenders of Guangwu City, each county also has an army of soldiers, a total of 3,000 people, which is the infantry troops who went out this time.
"Skinny Monkey!"
"In!"
"How long will it take to get to Zhiyang County?" Zhang Jun looked up at the dim sky and said in a deep voice, "It's going to be dark soon." ”
"Yes, Yi Zeqing, I'm afraid it's snowing again tonight." Song Pei also said.
"Back to my lord. Look at the map drawn ・・・・・・" Zhou Tong pointed to the front and said: "There is a tunshu post not far ahead, and if you go a little further, it should be Zhiyang County, and you will be able to arrive in less than half an hour." “
"You and Hu Shuo will take people first and go to the front station." Zhang Jun ordered: "The horses need to rest, let's drink some hot water to warm up before leaving." “
"No!" Zhou Tong clasped his fists and saluted, and galloped forward with Hu Shuo and more than a dozen guards.
According to the military order of the general of the army, Han Pu, Zhang Jun's marching governor should be transferred from the army soldiers who had already assembled in Zhiyang County, and at the same time, he was also assigned the task of raiding and inspecting the military discipline of the soldiers in Zhiyang County.
The war is imminent, and Han Pu is also worried about the mobilization of these local state and county officials.
With the military order in hand, Zhang Jun did not go to Guangwuzhou City with the army to repair, but directly led people to change the route halfway and went straight to Zhiyang County.
When entering the garrison outpost, Zhou Tong and Hu Shuo had already led people to build piles of warm bonfires, in this cold and knee-high harsh environment, after a long march, the most enjoyable thing is to sit and rest, drink a sip of hot water.
The guards were ordered to hand over their horses to the guards at the garrison post, and then sat down by the campfire, joking with each other and drinking water and resting.
Zhang Jun patrolled each campfire to see if any of the soldiers were frostbitten or unwell.
In the eyes of those veterans stationed in the garrison, these dozens of people stationed in the garrison can be said to be a very peculiar team, all more than sixty people are officers and not a single soldier! They are all wearing the legendary bright armor and big cloak that only the Chinese army distributes, look at this costume, won't it be another war?
Zhang Jun naturally doesn't need to pay attention to what others think, in his eyes, although these guys were still subordinates, soldiers and students not long ago, but now they have all become real officers, and their names have been recorded in the military register of the Daliang Chinese Army!
These people will become the descendants of his family, and then disperse into the army and become the backbone, and then they only need to be carefully cultivated, waiting for the day when it will break out of the cocoon.
"Major General!" At this time, Han Hu came over and said, "The horses are all drunk, can you set off now?" “
"Let's go, then." Zhang Jun stood up, adjusted his heavy armor, nodded and said, "The sooner you get to Zhiyang County, you can make the establishment full as soon as possible." “
"No!" Han Hu clenched his fists and turned around to give the order.
In every way, Zhiyang County doesn't look like a county seat. The walls were not made of brick and stone, but low earth embryos, which even children could climb up and down. After entering the city, there are no lively street markets, no bustling crowds, only simple houses and three or two old trees. Standing on one side of the gate, you can see the other side of the gate.
got off the horse at the gate of the county ya, Zhou Tong ran quickly in front and showed Zhang Jun's waist card to the officials guarding the door. The little official had never seen such a battle, and ran into it as if he were flying.
After a while, I saw a person wearing a nine-grade official robe rush out of it, and came to Zhang Jun until he came to Zhang Jun, and said: "Yang Xueshan, the commander of Zhiyang County, Xiaguan, meet the young general." ”
"Get up." Zhang Jun said.
Yang Xueshan hurriedly stood up, bowed down and said, "Young General, lords, please come inside." ”
Zhang Jun instructed Zhou Tong to stay outside with his guards, leaving only Hu Shuo and Song Pei, Suo Sanjie and Jiang Wan to accompany them. didn't go far, and came to the back hall of the county ya, Zhang Jun naturally sat in the main seat, and the county order accompanied him at the end.
Soon, the doorkeeper came up as a servant and brought hot water.
"Major General, our county is simple, you can bear with me." Yang Xueshan said.
Zhang Jun looked around, and saw that the county government was also very shabby, so he couldn't help frowning, and asked coldly: "Zhiyang County, I ask you, why are you so withered under your rule!" ”
"Plop!" Yang Xueshan said: "Major General, do you know, Zhiyang County was originally under the rule of Jincheng County, and it was only in recent years that it was assigned to the newly established Guangwu County. ”
He spit out the bitter water, gushed endlessly, and continued: "Zhiyang has been fighting for a long time, and the county is unable to defend it, so the people have gone to the dock fort with the surname of the wealthy family, and naturally there is no one. It is the subordinate himself, if he encounters horse thieves and ruffians, he must also go to the dock fort for temporary refuge. ”
"How can you be powerless to guard, what is the government army for?" Zhang Jun said in astonishment.
When he mentioned the government army, Yang Xueshan was even more helpless, and said: "The young general doesn't know that the Zhiyang government army is not in the county. ”
"Not in the county?" Song Pei also exclaimed: "According to my Daliang military law, changing the garrison without permission is a capital crime!" ”
"Alas・・・・・・" the county decree said: "The county is unable to provide for it, and they can only find their own way out, whoever gives more money will go where to station・・・・・・"
Yang Xueshan's words were not finished, only a snap.
Zhang Jun threw the tea bowl on the ground, he stood up and said coldly: "Where is the Zhiyang Mansion Army now?" ”
Yang Xueshan was half frightened to death, and said tremblingly: "Should ・・・・・・ should be in Zhaojiabao, ten miles away・・・・・・
"Let's go!" Zhang Jun threw off his cloak and walked out first, and the other four hurriedly followed.
Listening to the words of Zhiyang County's order, Zhang Jun only felt a cold air rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and his whole body shivered involuntarily. The big war is imminent, but the army of the border province that was pinned on by his uncle is like this!
Don't mention the strategy of the Han Kingdom, before the Han Kingdom called, Zhang Jun was already going to burn high incense!
Da Liang's soldiers have become lackeys who take care of the homes of the wealthy families, is it tolerable or unbearable?
With all the horses and horses, Zhang Jun galloped all the way, and soon came to the so-called Zhaojiabao. Instead of entering the fort, he went around and went straight, and soon came to a place that resembled a barracks.
It is said to be similar because this barracks does not have the wooden wall required by military law at all, but the appearance of a wall surrounded by firewood and fences at random, and the soldiers come in and out in twos and threes, which is more like a bazaar.
At night, you can see scattered bonfires lit everywhere in the camp, and the center of the camp is even more noisy. After getting closer, Zhang Jun actually saw a few bare-ass women through the fence!
With a wave of his hand, the people and horses behind him immediately divided into several columns and rushed towards several exits of the camp, while Zhang Jun himself took Hu Shuo, Song Pei, Suo Sanjie, Jiang Wan and others straight to the main gate.
