"Hey, can you tap?" Zhao Ziliang gasped in his mouth and couldn't help but complain to Panzhu Junxiu.

Sixty military sticks are beaten down, it is really uncomfortable, ordinary strong men can't stand it at all, it is common to be beaten to death, this is because Zhao Ziliang has a baby wrench to heal his injuries. After such a long time, he has basically been able to use his consciousness to control the cool qi in his fingers to heal himself, control the injury within a certain range, and prevent others from suspecting the abnormality of his body.

Panzhu Junxiu had just arrived, Zhao Ziliang was carried back to the Shouzhu Mansion after being tortured outside the West City Gate in the morning, and she arrived in the afternoon.

Pan Zhu Junxiu, who was rubbing medicine and wine for Zhao Ziliang, pouted, couldn't help but pat Zhao Ziliang's back, and complained: "You deserve it!" Who made you so stupid to let people beat themselves? Why didn't they cripple you? Hum! ”

was slapped, and Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but gasp again: "Hiss-you want to kill me?" What do you know? Military discipline is the most effective and necessary means of controlling the army! An army without military discipline has no combat effectiveness at all, and only iron military discipline can forge an iron army! Forget it, let's not talk about this, I said why are you here? ”

Panzhu Junxiu glanced at Zhao Ziliang, "Hmph, do you think I can come if I want to?" It was General Fumeng who asked me to come, and after receiving your letter, the general ordered me to come immediately, and asked me to assist you in escorting those Turk knight captives to Shule Town, but you are now looking like you are going to die, and I am afraid that the matter of escorting the captives will be postponed for a while! Hey, why don't you stay behind and take care of the captives? ”

"What? Do you escort the captives back yourself? No, no, you are a woman, where can you suppress those arrogant generals and unruly turkey captives? Zhao Ziliang said and shook his head like a rattle.

Panzhu Junxiu saw that Zhao Ziliang said that she was a woman's family, obviously looking down on her, where could she bear it, and immediately glared: "What's wrong with the women's family?" This princess is also good at martial arts, although she can't beat you, but besides you, who is my opponent? Besides, I'm not alone in escorting the captives, I've brought five hundred men with me! ”

Zhao Ziliang also vetoed: "That's not good, Lang Zhong said, I am a person with a different body, my injuries recover quickly, I can get out of bed in two days, you wait for me here for two days, and then we will escort the prisoners to Sule Town together!" ”

Panzhu Junxiu was a little unconvinced: "Nonsense, are you?" Will it work? ”

"I said yes! General Fumon's order is for you to assist me in escorting the captives to the town of Sule, and if you escort the captives alone, it is disobedience, if something happens halfway, we will both be involved, so it is decided! ”

Zhao Ziliang said, his body relaxed, changed the topic, and asked casually: "By the way, is there anything new in Shule Town recently?" Did Bian Lingcheng's eunuch still jump up and down? ”

Panzhu Junxiu saw that Zhao Ziliang asked about Sule Town, so he said: "There is nothing big happening, since General Fumeng eradicated the wings cultivated by Bian Lingcheng in one fell swoop, it is difficult for Bian Lingcheng to do anything, and he didn't catch General Fumeng's handle, and he was helpless against General Fumeng, so he was honest." However, speaking of which, during this period of time, the commanders of the entire military towns, checkpoints, and forts in Sule Town have changed greatly, and this is the Di Bao I brought with me when I left Shule Town, give! ”

Zhao Ziliang, who was lying on the couch, took the newspaper with his backhand and looked at it, and at first glance he saw Cheng Qianli's name appear on the newspaper, Cheng Qianli was the ranger general of the town guard of Sule Town before, and he was a general of the soldiers and horses directly under Sule Town, commanding a thousand troops, and directly obeying the orders of Fumeng Lingcha, but now he was transferred to the guard of the Green Ridge.

The Green Ridge Guard is the Tang Dynasty in the first year of Kaiyuan (that is, 713 AD) set up on the Green Ridge, which is under the jurisdiction of the town guard of Sule Town, with more than 1,000 people, all of whom are elite. To some extent, the Green Ridge Garrison is much more valuable than any of the leading ranger generals in the town guard, after all, it is an independent station, and the Guardian is a general in charge alone. In the army of the border, the largest establishment is called the army, the slightly smaller is called the guard, and then the following are the city, the town, the fort, the Xu, and the post. The army is generally directly under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, but the garrison is the largest military unit among the four towns.

The geographical location of the Green Ridge is extremely important, it is one of the few passes in the Tang Dynasty to prevent the invasion of Anxi by the Tubo State, don't look at the Tubo State is close to the land of Anxi, but the Tubo people want to enter Anxi, but it is not so easy, because of the terrain, the land of Anxi and the Tubo country are separated by several mountain ranges such as the Kunlun Mountains, the Lakorum Mountains, and the Hoh Xil Mountains, these mountains have high altitude, snow all year round, and the terrain is precipitous, even in the 21st century, it is a forbidden area for human beings. It is impossible to cross these mountains and enter the land of Anxi, in the west, the only way for the Tubo people to enter Anxi is to pass through the Great and Small Bolu Kingdoms, through the Tanju Ridge, and then through the Bomi River, and finally take the Green Ridge to capture before entering the land of Anxi. Cheng Qianli was able to take up the post of the envoy of the Green Ridge, on the one hand, because he was a close confidant of Fu Meng Lingcha, and on the other hand, Fu Meng Lingcha had high hopes for him and wanted to rely on him to firmly control the barrier of the Green Ridge into the land of Anxi.

Looking down further, Zhao Ziliang saw a few familiar names, these people are all close generals of Fumeng Lingcha, they have all been transferred to new positions, and they are all high and powerful, even Xi Yunqing was promoted to Zhaowu Captain by skipping the ranks, and commanded a battalion of soldiers and horses in the town guard mansion.

"Huh? Gao Xianzhi? He served as the envoy of the city of Quanzhou? Zhao Ziliang was surprised to see this name. The reason why Gao Xianzhi has been paid much attention and studied in later history is because he was the only general in the Tang Dynasty who led the troops to war with Western countries, and because he led the troops on two expeditions to Xiaobolu and returned from the great victory of the country, the Tang Dynasty became more famous in Central Asia, although he was defeated in the battle of the city of Tanros with the army of the Arab Empire, which made the Tang Dynasty lose control over dozens of countries in Central Asia and greatly reduced its influence, but this could not hide his military talent and historical contributions. Moreover, the defeat in the Battle of Tanros was not a mistake in Gao Xianzhi's command, but because of the betrayal of the members of the coalition army, the Qarluqs, who attacked the Tang army from behind, so that the Tang army was defeated by the enemy and returned, and only a few thousand of the 20,000 elite Anxi troops survived. However, from this aspect, it is precisely because Gao Xianzhi trusts the coalition too much.

Panzhu Junxiu said while taking medicine: "Yes, I heard that Gao Xianzhi is a Goguryeo person, he came down from the Dadu Protectorate, and he became a general at the age of only twenty. How, do you know him? ”

Zhao Ziliang shook his head: "I don't know, I've just heard of it!" ”

In the army of the Tang Dynasty, there were not only many foreign generals, but also many foreign soldiers, especially in the border army, almost more than half of the soldiers were ethnic minority soldiers, and there were many ethnic minority generals, such as the more famous ones in this era, such as Fumeng Lingcha, Ge Shuhan, Gufu Huaien, Li Guangbi, An Lushan, etc. Among them, Fumeng Lingcha is a Qiang person, Geshuhan is a Geshu tribesman, Gufu Huaien is a Tiele person, Li Guangbi is a Khitan person, An Lushan's father is a Kang country with the surname Zhaowu Jiu, his surname is Kang, and later he married his brother An Sishun and others and changed his surname to An.

After four days, Zhao Ziliang controlled the wrench to treat the injuries on his body, so that the injuries improved significantly, and he was able to move freely, so he summoned the generals of the Guarding Mansion to explain, and he was ready to take Hu Cong 120 horsemen to escort the Tuqi Shi prisoners to Shule Town with Panzhu Junxiu.

In the room of an ordinary courtyard in the city, an old man with a gloomy face sat at the table drinking stuffy wine, there were a few steaming dishes on the table, and there were several strong men with knives on their waists standing in the room. Unexpectedly, Du Modu, who was wanted in the entire Shule Town, not only did not escape, but hid in the city, which truly verified the sentence, sometimes the most dangerous place is the safest place!

At this moment, there was a knock on the courtyard door, and the sound was very rapid. The faces of the four strong men in the room changed and became extremely vigilant, and the strong men involuntarily held the hilt of their hands and prepared to draw their knives at any time.

Dumodus glanced at one of the strong men, who nodded, opened the door, and walked out, bringing in a thin man who looked extremely clever.

When the little man saw Du Modu, he immediately became flattering and flattering: "My lord, the villain has important news to report!" ”

A smile squeezed out of Du Modu's gloomy face, poured a glass of wine and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Oh? Come, warm up with a glass of wine, don't worry! ”

The little man looked flattered and took the wine glass and drank it all, put down the wine glass and said: "My lord, the villain has heard a news, and Zhao Ziliang will escort our prisoners to Shule Town tomorrow!" ”

When Du Modu heard the news, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said, "Oh? How many people were escorted? ”

"A few days ago, there was a female general from Shule Town who brought five hundred people, if Zhao Ziliang wanted to go, he should not bring the garrison of the city to go, at most he would only bring more than 100 of his servants, so they would have more than 600 people to escort at most!"

"Six hundred?" Dumodu spoke, and there were a few more wrinkles on his forehead. After thinking for a while, he waved his hand to the little man: "Okay, I know, come on, reward!" ”

The little man happily took the two strings of copper coins handed over by the strong man next to him, knelt on the ground and thanked him repeatedly.

"If there's any news to report immediately, I'll have a big reward, sir, you know?"

"Understood, understood!"
