Outside Chang'an City, on the bank of the Weishui River, about five miles away, is a military camp, the people in the camp are the Tang Dynasty soldiers who returned from Tubo, and about 1,000 of them are the soldiers of the Anxi Town of Changqing.

Feng Changqing's charge is called Erzhu Mou, the surname Erzhu comes from Qianhu, in the Northern and Southern Dynasties two hundred years ago, it was a famous family, influencing several generations from the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou to the Sui and Tang dynasties.

Now, after a hundred years of sinicization, the same as the Xianbei people who almost unified the world, disappeared in the long river of history, at this time, from physiognomy to customs, more Han than the Han people, how can there be half a shadow of the Hu people.

As the personal soldiers of the festival envoy, these thousands of people are naturally the main force in the town, and they will not be put into the battlefield unless they have to, and they are also well paid in peacetime, but the requirements for combat skills are far greater than those of ordinary town soldiers, even in the prosperous place of the capital, there is no slackness.

Of course, no matter how diligent you are, there will always be a moment of rest, not to mention that it is a good or bad trip, every four or five days, let the sergeants relax, go to the city in groups of three or five to go around, as long as they don't cause trouble, he will turn a blind eye.

It's just that what makes him a little puzzled is that the other soldiers and horses in the camp, the descendants of the legendary Jieshuai Dongbed, are quietly silent, but a team of fifty people, occupying a small place, and not making much noise, is naturally inconspicuous, even the usual rest in the camp seems to have never been, and he is a little curious in his heart, how Liu Guoyi led the soldiers, which is more rigorous than the personal soldiers of the Jieshuai.

"Lao Mou, Xiu Mu doesn't even leave the camp, he deserves to be a model in the army."

As he was thinking, a loud voice sounded behind him, and he smiled before turning back.

"Xu stick, how can you change the guard again?"

Xu Guangjing didn't like people to call him that, but he wasn't annoyed, he stepped forward with a smile and looked down at the other party condescendingly with his height.

"I'm tired of walking around the city, come out to breathe, and let the brothers move their hands and feet by the way, and don't tell you that when you see the big fish and meat in the sky, you can drink wine and water, and your teeth will be greasy, you see, this belly is full of oil."

Er Zhumou kicked him: "Get out, you know that you are angry." ”

Xu Guangjing took revenge, laughed, and staggered towards his camp with a group of sergeants, Er Zhumou looked at their figures, and couldn't tell if it was envy or something else, there were more than 1,000 people in their camp, where could they live in the city, and the marshal himself didn't have a mansion.

The change of defense every ten days was set early in the morning, so when Xu Guangjing and others entered the camp, Chen Jin and several team deputies who stayed behind were waiting for them early in the morning, and everyone was happy from the bottom of their hearts when they saw their arrival, after all, it was the national capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, who didn't want to see it.

Xu Guangjing shook off the cheering sergeants and pulled Chen Jin aside.

"Are those two old boys still alive?"

"It's okay, the man surnamed Tian is a little bored, but the surname Yan is still down-to-earth, the two often play chess together, and they don't come out and move around much."

Xu Guangjing nodded, explained to him the precautions after entering the city, don't make trouble, etc., and finally reminded him.

"The lord of war has his own considerations, you should pay more attention to him, and take care of the way back for him."

"A certain province."

Chen Jin clenched his fist at him and replied solemnly.

Because I don't know how long I will stay, the barracks are naturally not the kind of temporary tents, but a whole permanent structure planned by the imperial court very early, and they are only fifty people, occupying only a very small part, less than ten wooden houses.

Compared with the ordinary barracks where seven or eight people sleep on a big kang, Yan Zhuang and Tian Qianzhen live much more spacious, and with the same area, at least the two of them don't have to face the smell of feet in the room.

Of course, as a prisoner, all he can do is chat, be in a daze or play chess, and Yan Zhuang seems to be able to settle down with what happens.

Today, the two are fighting again, Yan Zhuang landed in a vacant seat, forced him to respond, and then pulled out a son, when it was Tian Qianzhen's turn, he searched all over the whole world, and there was no enough weight of robbery, so he scratched his head for a long time, and finally threw down the chess pieces in frustration.

"So-and-so lost."

"Qianzhen, your chess move is too direct, fierce is fierce, and it is light, as long as you adapt to it, you can find a way to deal with it, and it is not difficult to crack."

Yan Zhuang divided the sunspots and whites into two piles, and then gathered them one by one, dialed the sunspots to Tian Qianzhen's side, put two black and white pieces on the four stars of the empty chessboard, and raised his hand to make a gesture of please.

"No, I can't do it like Mr. Tian Qianzhen looked at the chessboard, shook his head and said.

"What are you worried about? If there is no more life than one, that is the family. "If you don't go down, you won't go down, and you don't care about being solemn.

"I can't tell."

Yan Zhuang smiled: "Do you think I'm sorry for the county king?" You, he saved your life, but for so many years, you were born and died for him, and you have returned any love. Now that you have fallen into this field, even if you do nothing and die for him, your family will be safe? Three hundred dragged down the river, the moment their heads hit the ground, the fate of you and me is doomed. ”

Tian Qianzhen didn't understand this truth, but after so many years of affection, how could he say that he could give up, he was not a strategist who had to make several bends in his heart all the time, he was just a fighter, and suddenly he lost the object of his allegiance, and he only felt that his heart was empty, not up or down.

"We're really going to fight for that...... People to serve? ”

"Not convinced? His methods, whether it is blatantly killing 300 people, or stealing a certain god out of Chang'an City, are remarkable, looking at the command of the county king, only Shi Siming has this kind of ruthlessness, as well as skills, and the rest are all insufficient, I want to see what he wants to do, what step can he do. ”

"But he's just a war lord, how can he be compared to the king of the county."

"It's true that there is only one war lord, but if this war lord almost single-handedly warps the entire battle situation, so that Ge Shuhan, Feng Changqing, these generals, have to follow his path, how many such war lords have you seen?"

Yan solemnly said leisurely: "At first, I was the same as you, I was not convinced, but the more I saw it, the more frightened I became, this son is bold, it is incredible, a certain family and a strategist, I can't think of how to take the capital of the Tubo people with 10,000 people in the Anxi Town Military Region, but he did it, can you imagine?" ”

Tian Qianzhen was stunned, he couldn't figure out this result, the combat power of the Tubo people, they, the northern garrison, really didn't know much, but they couldn't stand the comparison, how could they make famous generals like Xue Rengui break their halberds.

Not to mention the side, with nearly 200,000 horses in the three northern towns, against a mere Khitan and Xi tribes, there have been many defeats, and after so many years, they still haven't been completely pacified.

In terms of combat achievements alone, there are very few that An Lushan can get his hands on.

There was nothing to do left and right, the two of them gossiped without a word, and when it was almost time to eat, the door was opened from outside, and a young figure walked in, it was the master in their mouths.

"Both of you are here, just in time, let's try my improved hot pot."
