Chapter 12: The Mysterious Old Fellow
Chen Wenzhou filled it up for a few people, and a few people politely accepted it, raised the bowl, and Li Siye said: "Come, do this bowl first, we celebrate this big victory!" ”
"!" Everyone drank a bowl together.
Li Siye took the wine jug, poured it for Chen Wenzhou, and then poured it for himself.
"Wen Zhou, during the last night attack on General's Ditch, you saved my life; When I was demoted to the head team, you made me understand where my failures were, and this time, you helped me take the general's ditch, I really don't know how to thank you! Either stay with me in the future, and don't go to the Fireheads. ”
Chen Wenzhou, who was bringing the bowl to his mouth, hurriedly put down the wine bowl when he heard this, and arched his hand and said: "General, I still have dishes that have not been washed, and you also know that I am a very dedicated person, let's talk back." ”
"Come back!" Li Siye scolded angrily, "That's it, you still be your head army." ”
"Oh, let me think about it carefully, although it's a good thing to grasp work, but it also has to combine work and rest, let's talk about it tomorrow," Chen Wenzhou sat back again.
The adjutant and the two subordinates will look at each other, and an inference will arise: this fang should be the successor of Sichuan Opera, who is good at face-changing stunts, and has shameless internal skills.
Li Siye said: "Actually, this is not only my personal meaning. When I went to the Marshal's Mansion today, I reported the whole process to the Marshal, and I recommended you, and he was very interested in your military talent, so let me train you well. ”
In this way, this matter has alarmed the Shuofang Military Commission, this is not a good thing, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, Chen Wenzhou thought.
"General, I have already said that those tactics were told to me by Mr. Kong Ming, I just conveyed his meaning, the main reason for this victory is that you are too handsome, and your aura is so strong that Mr. Kong Ming wants to dream."
Li Siye didn't hear this.
Chen Wenzhou suddenly put down the wine bowl, looked at Li Siye suspiciously, and said: "General, you are only in charge of 600 people in our cavalry battalion, to put it ugly, your official is not too big, it stands to reason that you can't directly report the battle situation to the commander, right?" “
Chen Wenzhou's question is not unreasonable, Li Siye's cavalry battalion is only 600 cavalry, which is only a battalion-level establishment, and Li Siye can only be regarded as a middle-level officer, and it stands to reason that he cannot skip the rank and report directly to the supreme commander of the Shuofang Army.
So Chen Wenzhou suspected that Li Siye was scaring him.
Li Siye smiled incomprehensibly, did not speak, and the adjutant took over the conversation and said, "Wen Zhou, you don't know anything. Although our Xuanzi Xiao Cavalry Battalion is under the jurisdiction of the Shuofang Army, it is not a standing army. We are stationed in the military town of Shule in the Western Regions, and we have separate jurisdictions and cantonments, and we are directly under the orders of the marshal. Except in special circumstances, they generally do not return to the headquarters. “
Chen Wen understood when he heard it on Monday, to put it bluntly, although the Xiao Cavalry Battalion was the establishment of the Shuofang Army, it was relatively independent and did not listen to the announcement.
"Moreover, we are miracle soldiers," Li added.
Chen Wenzhou nodded in a sudden realization.
After being a firehead for so long, he still understands the meaning of 'odd soldier'.
The Tang army was divided into Yue cavalry (light cavalry), tun cavalry (heavy cavalry), infantry archery (archers), infantry soldiers (infantry), spearmen, crossbowmen, and jumping teams (raiders).
In addition, there are also flexible arms, which temporarily determine the specific arms and direction of action according to the war situation, and are collectively referred to as odd troops.
Odd soldiers are not subject to the control of the commander of a specific branch of the army, but directly obey the orders of the general headquarters.
No wonder Li Siye can talk to Guo Ziyi directly, it turns out that this Xuanzi Xiaoqi Riding Camp still has such a background, Chen Wenzhou thought.
Li Siye said: "By the way, what did you mean when you said that Gao Xianzhi and General Feng Changqing were in trouble that day?" I told Dashuai that he takes this issue very seriously. ”
When Chen Wenzhou heard Li Siye's words, his face couldn't help but deepen, "I can only speculate on this question." That day, I watched the stars at night, and saw that in the southern sky, the Fenghe star was bright and the Wuqu star was dark, the Fenghe was in the east, it was a rebel, and Wuqu was in the west, it was our army, and the two main stars at the Wuqu star were actually covered by dark clouds, which was probably a precursor to the fall of the star! ”
Li Siye and the other three glanced at each other, and they all saw the solemn looks on the faces of the others.
If Chen Wenzhou had said this before, they would definitely think that Chen Wenzhou was engaging in feudal superstition about cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, but now, they had to be cautious.
Chen Wenzhou pulled the meat with his left hand and fed it to his mouth, took the wine jug with his right hand, and said vaguely: "General, let's tear (eat) meat and drink the bar, after the root (today), I'm afraid we will be busy again." ”
"What do you mean?" Li Siye was puzzled.
"Drink the bar," Chen Wenzhou picked up the flask and began to blow on the spout.
Li Siye, adjutant, general: "......"
On the second day of the occupation of Jiangjungou, all the garrisons of the Xiaocai Battalion were relocated to the heights of Jiangjungou.
At night, Chen Wenzhou was diligently shopping for vegetables in the fire head team to prepare for tomorrow's meal, when Hao Tingyu walked in and said, "Wenzhou, someone is looking for you." ”
Chen Wenzhou looked up and saw that Hao Tingyu was accompanied by a person, wearing a white round-necked robe, looking at himself.
Hao Tingyu glanced at the man, then at Chen Wenzhou, and said, "You talk, I'll cut the meat." ”
"You are Chen Wenzhou?" The white-robed man stared at Chen Wenzhou in a little surprise, obviously, he didn't expect Chen Wenzhou to be such an unattractive miscellaneous soldier.
Chen Wenzhou stood up, wiped his hand on his buttocks a few times, and said, "I am Chen Wenzhou, I don't know who Your Excellency is?" What's the matter with me? ”
The white-robed man bowed back and said with a smile: "In Xia Xue Jingxian, I have heard the name of Brother Wen Zhou, my husband wants to see you." ”
Chen Wenzhou secretly thought: I am a little firehead, where did I get a big name, you kid who talks nonsense, you want to set me up at a glance.
At the moment, he said lightly: "Your Excellency is probably looking for the wrong person, I am just a firehead." ”
Xue Jingxian shook his head, signaled that he was not looking for the wrong person, and said, "The one who is looking for is the Huotou Army." ”
Oh? Chen Wen was stunned on Monday, could it be that my diligent work like a little bee every day has attracted the attention of others, and they want to award me a model worker star award?
Chen Wenzhou was puzzled: "Who is your husband?" ”
Xue Jingxian smiled incomprehensibly: "You'll know when you go." ”
Chen Wenzhou shook his head and said, "You are an unknown person, and you are still pretending to be a ghost, what if you trick me into robbing money and sex?" I'm not going, I still have a lot of dishes that haven't been washed, you know, I'm a very dedicated person, please don't send it if you don't accompany me! ”
As soon as the three consecutive moves were over, Chen Wenzhou squatted down and continued to take care of the vegetable leaves.
Xue Jingxian was stunned, robbing money and robbing sex?
He looked at Chen Wenzhou carefully, and he really couldn't see where his color was and where his wealth was.
Xue Jingxian thought to himself: It seems that Li Siye is right, this Huotou Army named Chen Wenzhou is not a normal guy, and he doesn't play cards according to routines.
Lao Xue was really stumped for a while, this person is the person he wants to see by name, so he can't be tied back, right?
Please don't move, tie and can't tie, it's really hard to do.
At this time, the sentry officer of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion arrived, and when he saw Xue Jingxian, the sentry officer's face was shocked, and he was about to salute, but Xue Jingxian shook his head.
The sentry nodded, and said to Chen Wenzhou: "Brother Wenzhou, the general asked me to bring you a message. ”
Chen Wenzhou arched his hand and said, "Please speak." ”
The sentry officer looked at Xue Jingxian, and then said, "Brother Wen Zhou, the general said, if this Xue Ye has any orders, you just do it." ”
Chen Wenzhou looked at Xue Jingxian, but he didn't expect that this tricky guy had already opened up the relationship, so he could only say, "Okay then." ”
The sentry arched his hand at the two of them, turned and went back to his life.
"Let's go," Chen Wenzhou followed the white-robed man out of the fire team at the moment.
The two rode their horses for a few minutes, which was not too far, and Chen Wenzhou could still see the lights of the Xiao Cavalry Camp in the distance when he turned around.
"It's here," Xue Jingxian said.
The two jumped off their horses and walked to a fire.
An old man in his sixties was stirring firewood, and behind him stood several guards with their backs on their backs.
Xue Jingxian brought Chen Wenzhou to the old man, saluted and said, "Big, uh, sir, Chen Wenzhou is here." ”
The old man nodded, and from the time the two of them came over, the old man's gaze had been fixed on Chen Wenzhou's body.
I saw that he was poorly dressed and ordinary-looking, just an ordinary miscellaneous soldier, and he really didn't look like a master who knew stargazing thaumaturgy, so he asked, "Little brother, are you Chen Wenzhou?" ”
Chen Wenzhou nodded while observing the old man.
I saw that although his temples were a little silver, he was in good spirits, wearing a black round-necked robe, a soft-horned head, and five locks of long hair hanging down on his chest.
This old guy is not simple, Chen Wenzhou secretly thought.
