Chapter 303: Military Affairs
Chinese Teng Xiuyang followed her, and he didn't look nervous and frightened in the face of the many warriors of the Camellia Palace who didn't want to kill him, and he kept scanning the crowd on the street and showed a little smugness.
Duan Siyi's afterglow swept across and swept to Chen Ran on the right, turning her head and smiling slightly. Chen Ran smiled in response and nodded, as if conveying some subtle message. Duan Siyi turned around and continued to move forward: "Lord Teng, has there been any movement in Tianzhu Kingdom recently?"
Teng Xiuyang said: "Tianzhu Kingdom and our country have always been reconciled, and there is no inappropriate movement. But the Tianzhu thieves are always doing things in my territory, I don't know if I care?"
Duan Siyi said: "What do you think the adults don't care?"
Teng Xiuyang said: "No matter what it is, it will harm the people in our territory, and it is afraid that it will damage the diplomatic relations between the two countries and provoke war, Weichen is very distressed, and I ask the princess to show it!"
Duan Siyi said: "My lord is too worried, no matter which country's subjects make trouble in our country, they should go to the emperor, find out the truth, arrest the criminals, and hand them over to the emperor to deal with." The emperor will send someone back to the other country to explain the reason and negotiate the matter. Not only can the case be resolved, but it will not damage the diplomatic relations between the two countries. ”
Teng Xiuyang smiled faintly and said: "What the princess said is very true, Weichen will later report the matter of the Tianzhu thief to the emperor." ”
Duan Siyi smiled and said, "I already know about this matter, and I will play my father." Lord Teng doesn't have to play, adults can find out the truth according to their own ideas, and capture the villain. ”
Teng Xiuyang said: "Weichen obeys. ”
After traveling for more than an hour, I came to Yudian Town. This town is very large, and it is also very close to Tengchong City, and the soldiers of the brigade patrol outside the town, making it really look like a border fortress town. A hairy-faced general stood at the gate of the town and waited, and when he saw Duan Siyi and the others coming, he went up and saluted: "The last general, Meng Ran, knocks on Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Duan Siyi dismounted and helped Meng Ran up and said, "General Meng is exempt." ”
Meng Ran got up and said, "The princess has arrived, and she has missed the distance, so I hope to invite Haihan." ”
Duan Siyi smiled and said, "It's okay." At the behest of my father, I inspected the military affairs of the counties. Today, I came to Tengchong to express my condolences to the soldiers, and I didn't disturb the generals, right?"
Meng Ran said with a smile: "It is a blessing for me that the princess can come to observe the soldiers in person. Princess first, please!" led Duan Siyi and the others into the town.
This town is an ordinary town, not an important town held by the soldiers of the border fortress. There are no huge training grounds, drill grounds, or barracks, all of which are civilian houses. The surrounding streets and alleys are full of soldiers, and there are no merchants and people, which is very strange. Duan Siyi looked around casually and said, "Lord Teng, is this the border town guarded by more than 30,000 soldiers?"
Teng Xiuyang said: "No. The border town is far away from here, and every once in a while the soldiers are summoned back here to settle down. The princess met a time of recuperation, and all the soldiers would rest here, and after the rest was over, they would return to the border town. ”
Duan Siyi said: "I see, how long does it take to rest?" Yan Bi thought: "This place is very close to Tengchong City, and the accumulation of troops can be attacked and defended, and it is really as I measured." ”
Teng Xiuyang said: "Seven days at most, three days at least." ”
Duan Siyi asked, "What are you resting for?"
Teng Xiuyang was slightly stunned and said, "Actually, it's nothing, just let the soldiers come back to visit their relatives or something." As he spoke, he entered a mansion, which looked like an official government, but it became a military camp. Meng Ran led Duan Siyi to the hall and ordered someone to bring tea. Behind him, a large group of generals immediately followed into the hall and surrounded them tightly.
Duan Siyi looked at the situation in front of her, and suddenly felt a murderous aura approaching, seeing that these soldiers seemed to have come to ask for worship, but they were actually going to besiege her. Sitting down, he thought, "It seems that they are extremely wary of me, and if they are not careful, they will kill me." Xiangbi smiled and said, "You don't have to be formal, just sit down and talk." Everyone glanced at each other, and only after Teng Xiuyang's hint did they sit down helplessly.
Duan Siyi said: "Since the border town is far away from here, all the soldiers have also come back to rest. If there is chaos on the border, how should we deal with it?"
Teng Xiuyang paused and looked at Meng Ran. Meng Ran coughed lightly and said with a reluctant smile: "I came back after resting to see that there was no chaos in the frontier." Besides, there are still 5,000 soldiers left in the border town to continue to guard the town, and the princess can rest assured!"
Duan Siyi glanced at the generals who entered the hall, and said, "In this case, please also call all the soldiers to gather, and this princess will comfort them on behalf of my father." ”
Meng Ran paused and looked at Teng Xiuyang. Teng Xiuyang also paused a little, and said: "The princess has worked hard all day, it is better to rest today, and it is not too late to inspect tomorrow." ”
Duan Siyi said: "Thanks to my father's love, I was ordered to inspect the military and political affairs of the county governments, and I only passed Baoshan to Tengchong along the way, and there are many county governments that dare not delay." Teng people govern the government well, all industries are prosperous, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. General Meng led the troops well, and the soldiers were united and the frontier was stable, and his father would definitely be very satisfied. ”
Teng Xiuyang and Meng Ran heard such praise, their worries were reduced, and they both smiled, and they both said: "Princess Xie praises." ”
Teng Xiuyang said: "In this case, General Meng will go and gather all the soldiers in the grassland outside the town and wait for the princess to inspect." ”
Meng Ran still showed a little hesitation, and then walked out of the hall a little helplessly, and the rest of the soldiers also went out.
Duan Siyi glanced at Teng Xiu Yang, and saw that he was a little nervous, so he said, "Does Lord Teng know Yang Zhijian?"
Teng Xiuyang was even more surprised, and then stabilized his mood again, and said with a smile: "Weichen knows this person, this person is the son of Yang Shao, and his whereabouts are still unknown, the princess has seen this person?"
Seeing him look like this, Duan Siyi smiled slightly and said, "I haven't seen it, but I heard that this person is plotting to rebel, so I want to track down his whereabouts." I haven't had any clues, so I asked Lord Teng if he knew any clues?"
Teng Xiuyang said: "Weichen has been strictly ordering the whereabouts of the traitor to be traced, but there has been no result. Wechen must strictly order to continue the investigation, and as soon as there is news, it will be played immediately. ”
Duan Siyi said: "It's so good, I don't know where the General Altar of the Elder Sect is, it's not far from here." Princess Ben wants to visit, isn't it convenient or not?"
Teng Xiuyang was stunned, paused for a moment, and said with a reluctant smile: "The General Altar of the Elder Sect is in Qushi Village, and it will naturally be good if the princess wants to visit." It's just that the affairs of Weichen are complicated at the moment, and I am afraid that I can't accompany the princess in person. ”
Duan Siyi smiled and said, "It's okay, it's good for adults to deal with important military and political affairs." ”
Teng Xiuyang said: "Yes!"
Meng Ran strode into the hall, bowed and saluted, "Princess Qiyu, the last general has summoned all the soldiers to wait for the princess to inspect the grassland outside the town. ”
Duan Siyi got up and said, "Let's go!" Out of the hall, he walked out of the courtyard with Teng Xiuyang and Meng Ran towards the town gate.
There were so many soldiers in the town that it was very quiet, and there were no merchants or pedestrians. He thought, "Isn't it possible that so many soldiers have broken into such a small town and driven all the people away? That's not right, if they are driven out of the town, there will be gossip, and it will be possible that they will be captured and taken to one place?" Out of the town gate, there is a spacious grassland, and more than 30,000 soldiers stand densely together.
She followed Teng Xiuyang and the two of them past the soldiers, walked to the center, and saw that the faces of the soldiers were extremely strange, with fear, helplessness, resentment, arrogance, grief, ignorance, hope, and despair. Most people's eyes are full of fear, helplessness, grief, despair, and a glimmer of hope. Many people's fragile expressions were filled with deep exhaustion, and some of the corners of their clothes were splashed with blood that had not been cleaned up in time. thought: "It seems that Teng Xiuyang, who is controlled by Yang Zhijian, must have done a lot of unrighteous things, and many soldiers are still righteous and are persecuted." In this way, the odds are much better. ”
The three of them swept past the soldiers and came to a makeshift wooden platform in the central meadow, where the soldiers surrounded and surrounded the wooden platform. The lineup of soldiers is divided into ten brigades, each team has more than 3,000 people, and there is a general standing in front of each team, and there are always ten generals. Duan Siyi glanced at the ten generals, and saw that these ten people had the same expressions, and they were all full of murderous aura. The gesture of holding the knife in the right hand is exactly the same, from the point of view of the number of internal strengths, from the same sect and all of them are martial arts of the Jianghu sect. Then he looked at the thirty or so people who surrounded the wooden platform, just like the ten, and thought, "It seems that if they can't get around, they will kill me here." ”
Teng Xiuyang stepped forward and raised his voice: "Soldiers, today's visit by Her Royal Highness the Princess to express condolences to all the soldiers is a great event for our county. Now I invite the princess to speak, everyone is welcome!"
Duan Siyi's afterglow swept into the dense forest in the distance, and without seeing any movement, he took out a golden military order token from his arms and held it high, turned around, and the soldiers in the field began to whisper, but they did not kneel. She turned to Teng Xiuyang and Meng Ran, and when she saw that the two of them looked flustered but did not bow down, she said, "Lord Teng and General Meng don't know this token, right?"
Teng Xiuyang's expression changed suddenly, dimmed, sneered, and said: "Weichen has been on the frontier for a long time, and he has never seen what kind of token this is, so naturally he doesn't know it." ”
Duan Siyi smiled: "You are a civil official, it's not strange if you don't know it." Turning to Meng Ran, he said: "General Meng is in charge of Tengchong's soldiers and horses to guard the frontier, won't he even know the emperor's general troop transfer talisman?"
Meng Ran was extremely flustered, but stabilized again, glanced at Teng Xiuyang, and said to Duan Siyi: "The last general naturally knows the emperor's general troop talisman, but didn't the princess come here to inspect, why did she bring the emperor's troop talisman with her?"
Duan Siyi said: "Seeing this talisman is like seeing the emperor, Lord Teng doesn't know that the talisman does not kneel to greet him, and he can barely say it." But General Meng knew that it was a military talisman, but he didn't kneel down to greet him, but it was a big crime!" After finishing speaking, he raised his voice and said to the soldiers on the field: "The emperor always transfers troops here, and when he sees the soldiers, if he sees the emperor, those who do not kneel and bow to greet him will be punished with contempt for the emperor and punished by the nine clans." "The soldiers began to riot and bustle in the field.
