When Li Bin and Zhe Deyuan were politely welcomed into the second hall accompanied by Gao Shaoji, Gao Yunquan, the envoy of the Zhangwu Army, who had a gray hair, was sitting on a chair drinking ginseng soup, and his legs were covered with a blanket made of unknown beast fur.

Li Bin has already visited Gao Yunquan, so he can still calm down, but Zhi Deyuan was taken aback, he already knew about the incompetence of Gao's father and son, but he didn't expect that Gao Yunquan at this moment had weakened so much, and he looked three points weaker than his father who was still pretending to be sick in Sanshui at the moment, and he was obviously an old man who was about to die.

"The last general Fuzhou folded Deyuan, I saw Gao Shizhong, and greeted Shizhong on behalf of my father......"

Zhi Deyuan endured surprise and bowed.

Gao Yunquan's cloudy eyes hit Zhi Deyuan's body back and forth, and a helpless wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The old man is useless...... Let the virtuous nephew see the joke......"

Zhi Deyuan hurriedly said insincerely: "Where does the service come from, Yanzhou is up and down, the fathers and elders of Guanzhong, and they still have to rely on the service!" ”

Gao Yunquan waved his hand with difficulty: "That's it, don't coax my old man to be happy, being tossed like this, what do you say about relying on or not relying on?" ”

He looked at Zhe Deyuan, and commanded Gao Shaoji weakly: "Shaoji, don't hurry up and let you sit with Fifth Brother Zhe and Li Guan!" ”

Gao Shaoji answered, stretched out his hand and said, "Fifth brother, please sit, Uncle Shi, please sit-"

Zhi Deyuan and Li Bin sat down separately, and Zhi Deyuan said: "My father is unwell, and he is hard of hearing, so he should have come to visit Shizhong in person, but he was afraid of missing state affairs, so he sent his little nephew to Yanzhou to discuss the strategy of Yubei with the waiter......"

Gao Yunquan coughed and said lightly: "Don't be so polite to the virtuous nephew, with this little bit of knowledge from the martial army, can you still hide from the virtuous father and son, the experts who lead the troops?" What is the arrangement, and the virtuous nephew and nephew are instructed to be that my father and son should only be honored in the service. Up and down Yanzhou, we should try our best to serve ......"

Zhe Deyuan said "don't dare", but said unceremoniously: "My father was ordered by the imperial court to come to Guanzhong to the guest army in the north of the party, before the end of the coming to Yanzhou, my father respected the teachings, and everything was not to worry about, but the defense of Luzi Pass and Weiping Pass was the first important matter in Yanzhou, and it must not be neglected. At the end of the day before yesterday, the general had already interrogated the party item captured by your department, and only then did he know that the two customs offices had already been prepared, and the last general had the courage to ask the general to take this officer back to Sanshui by his father to inquire about the military situation in detail......"

These words were said very politely, but in the ears of Gao's father and son, it seemed that every word was sarcastic, Gao Shaoji stood on one side with his fists clenched, his teeth were about to be crushed, but Gao Yunquan only smiled bitterly and said: "That's okay...... I also asked the virtuous nephew to bring a sentence to the folded servant for me, I am old, and I can't suppress the mess of Yanzhou, and I will soon be on the table, please let the court let the folded servant and town Yanzhou, resist the party, or rectify the Zhangwu army, you have to count on the folding, the old man and his son raised soldiers and studied behind closed doors, and never asked about political affairs, and asked the virtuous nephew to relay these words to the servant, hoping that he would not shirk it for the sake of Li Shu in Jiuxian County......"

The expression on Zhi Deyuan's face froze for a moment, and then he got up and said: "Where did Gao Shizhong say, my father has already said that I am here in Guanzhong, my Fuzhou army is a guest after all, and everything must rely on Uncle Shi and Uncle Gao, once the party threat is lifted in the future, our father and son will return to Fuzhou, how can there be a noisy ceremony, please rest assured, Yanzhou is the Yanzhou of Gao Shizhong's father and son, and my father will never covet the heart of the dove to occupy the magpie's nest......"

Gao Yunquan shook his head: "The virtuous nephew doesn't have to be polite, as long as the virtuous nephew is willing to help my old man suppress the hundreds of chaotic soldiers on the mountain outside the city, this Yanzhou Festival will make him take the position, even if he can't look down on it, Gao is willing to give it to the virtuous nephew, and from then on, Yanzhou will be the world of the virtuous nephew!" ”

Li Bin, who was sitting on the side, suddenly turned pale.

Gao Shaoji, who was standing behind Zhi Deyuan, was depressed again, although he knew that his father was an expedient measure to kill people with a knife, but he was still secretly resentful in his heart, he was also a Yanei, why is the treatment of this Zhen Yanai so different from the treatment of his own Gao Yanai? Is it because he is the son of Zhe Cong Ruan?

Zhi Deyuan smiled slightly, others are not smart, and it was not until this moment that he really understood the mind of the old man Gao Yunquan. The father and son and the entire Zhangwu army were deflated in the hands of Li *, and it was true that they wanted to borrow the 300 folded family army under their command to get back to the field.

He didn't know that Gao Yunquan's concession was indeed a little sincere, and it was better for Yanzhou to fall into the hands of the Zhe family than in the hands of Li *. On the one hand, the family went out of Yanzhou as an outsider, and naturally everything had to rely on their father and son, even if they died, the Gao family was still the first county in Yanzhou after all, and Gao Shaoji would not be able to become a weapon, at most it would harm himself, and the Gao family would not be wiped out. As long as the influence of the Gao family is still there, there will always be a day when they will retake charge of Yanzhou in the future, although the Zhe family can get some advantages for the time being, but as long as the emperor of the Guo family frees up his hands in the future, he will never allow such a huge feudal town to exist, not to mention that the reputation of the soldiers of the Zhe family in the world has long been known at home and abroad.

Zhe Congruan will not fall for him, he knows this, that old guy has been going back and forth for decades, and he has dealt with everyone, and he can't fool him with this little thought, but this Zhe Deyuan is a junior, although he is also the best in the generation of the Zhe family, but Gao Yunquan knew at a glance that this was a person who had no scheming city, so he suddenly said such a thing.

It's just that although Zhe Deyuan is not a person who is very good at playing tricks, he is a very self-aware person.

"Gao Shizhong said seriously, the affairs of Yanzhou are all decided by Gao Shizhong, and the little nephew from outside does not dare to stay in the middle. If the waiter wants the little nephew to cooperate in guarding the two levels, as long as it is to deal with the Tuoba family, the little nephew does not need to ask the father of the family to be willing to follow the work of dogs and horses......"

Zhi Deyuan's words were extremely tactful, but there was an unquestionable awe-inspiring bearing.

Gao Yunquan looked at him, shook his head slowly, and said, "It seems that the virtuous nephew is unwilling to help me...... Gao is not joking, nor is he lying to others...... If the virtuous nephew refuses to believe it, the old man is willing to send the seal to Bianjing first, and then hand over the letter to the Jieyue, and after the virtuous nephew takes over, he will send troops to exterminate the rebels, and the rest of the things, there are virtuous father and son, and the old man will study behind closed doors to enjoy his old age, and his wish is ......enough."

Gao Shaoji, who was standing in the back, became more and more stunned the more he listened, this dad couldn't be confused by that bastard surnamed Li, right?

Zhi Deyuan's expression remained unchanged, his tone was firm but his voice was gentle: "In the service, the affairs of Yanzhou, and the affairs of the Zhangwu Army are all decided by the servants, and the last general will not dare to overstep his responsibilities. People are self-aware, and the end will be dull, and they think that they are not the materials for opening the town with festivals, and they have failed to live up to the good intentions of the service, please forgive me. ”

Gao Yunquan was embarrassed for a while, but he couldn't say anything, people made it clear that he didn't look down on the position of Yanzhou Jiedu, what else could he do.

At this time, Gao Shaoji, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke: "Fifth brother, the younger brother is willing to borrow your ministry to go out of the city to quell the rebellion, since the fifth brother is unwilling to do moderation, he won't even give this face......

Zhi Deyuan stood up, turned around to face Gao Shaoji, and said politely: "Gao Yanei's words are serious, the three hundred prefecture soldiers brought by Zhe are used to prevent the Tuoba family from attacking and harassing Yanzhou counties and counties, and they are used to settle the difficult military, not to fight with the Zhangwu army in the same room. ”

Gao Shaoji was greatly embarrassed, and sneered: "That traitor is so arrogant, openly raising troops to rebel in the state city, looting the treasury, harassing the people of Li, killing and injuring countless soldiers of my Zhangwu Army, it can be said that he has a lot of blood debts, and he still thinks that he is a person in the Zhangwu Army, isn't it ridiculous?" ”

He saw that Zhe Deyuan did not appreciate it, and did not respond to calling him "Fifth Brother", so he simply stopped being polite at this moment, and changed his name to "Zhe Yanei", anyway, we are not polite at this moment......

Zhi Deyuan smiled slightly: "No, as far as I know, Gao Shizhong has just issued an appointment proclamation, appointing the 'traitor' mentioned in Yanai as the commander of the former battalion, and promoted him to the rank of captain of Xuanjie, this matter was only a few days ago, how could this person become a traitor in the blink of an eye?" Wasn't the proclamation of appointment given by the high servants, and who was so bold as to dare to issue such a proclamation in the name of moderation? ”

Gao Shaoji was so angry that he trembled all over, and said loudly: "It's not the traitorous ...... who should be cut by a thousand cuts."

"Shut up!" Gao Yunquan, who was already so angry that his face turned blue, shouted loudly, even if he prevented his precious son from saying anything more embarrassing, but this sound also affected his condition, covering his face and coughing violently......

Gao Shaoji still had a look of anger on his face, but he didn't dare to say more, and quietly stood behind him to help his father gently beat his back.

After a while, Gao Yunquan slowly raised his body, and said in a hoarse voice: "Since the virtuous nephew has this heart, I won't say anything more, Wei Pingguan in the northeast, far away from the state city, is the transportation of Suizhou to the south, but the old man's soldiers are few and small, and there is no available person, it is really ashamed, if the virtuous nephew is willing to help, the old man is willing to entrust the virtuous nephew to capture the guard of Wei Pingguan, and then allocate the left battalion of the Zhangwu Army to the virtuous nephew to be promoted in a unified manner, but I don't know what the virtuous nephew wants?" ”

Zhi Deyuan was stunned for a moment, his mind was far less fast than that of the old fox Gao Yunquan, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Gao Yunquan sneered and secretly looked at Zhi Deyuan, junior, fighting with the old man for power, you are still a little tender.

Zhi Deyuan pondered for a long time, gritted his teeth, got up and saluted: "My father sent the last to Yanzhou, originally to help the servant guard the north. The last general is willing to serve the dogs and horses in the service, but Luguan Wei Pass, is the two major gateways north of Yanzhou, although Wei Pingguan is important, but it is not the usual route for the difficult army to send troops, in recent years, the Li family invaded the south, mostly from the Luzi Pass to break through the pass, Wei Pingguan has not been disturbed for seven or eight years, the last general thought that the first should be stationed in the Luzi Pass, not Wei Pingguan, the last general is willing to guard the Luzi Pass for the service, please allow the service to ......"

Gao Yunquan smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry about the virtuous nephew, the old man will definitely dispatch the elite soldiers of Yanzhou to guard Luguan, you can rest assured in the west, as long as the virtuous nephew guards Wei Ping, it will be a great merit......"

Zhi Deyuan was quite confused, but he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Gao Yunquan's gourd, and was puzzled, but Gao Yunquan said leisurely: "The old man intends to appoint Xuanjie Lieutenant Li *, the commander of the front battalion of the Zhangwu Army, as the inspection envoy of Luzi Pass, and lead the soldiers and horses of the front battalion headquarters to guard Luzi Pass, so as to prepare for the southern prisoners of the difficult army, virtuous nephew, observation, what do you think......?" ”

……

"This ...... What is this? ”

The snow outside the window had stopped, and several squads of soldiers were training in strict queues on the playground, and the clear and crisp commands of several instructors flew into the room from time to time through the papier-mâché windows, making a person in the room who had seen what military drills were like for the first time palpitated.

There were a lot of people in the room, the former battalion commander Li *, the secretary of the army Zhou Zhengyu, the commander of the army and the chief instructor Xi Shen Chen, the former battalion supervisor Wei Xun, and Li *'s personal soldier Li Hu, but the heads of these many armies were surrounded by an obscene-looking old man with trembling eyes at the moment, and they didn't know what they were doing.

"Tailor Jiang, can you make this dress, but say something!"

This old guy turned out to be the most famous tailor in Yanzhou City, and now he was half-held hostage and half-forced to "invite" him to Fenglin Mountain, in order to make a "big deal" that is said to be enough for him to eat and drink for several years.

With nearly three hundred sets of clothes, this is indeed not a small deal...... What's more, these three hundred sets of clothes are basically the same.

A standard Confucian robe, oh, it looks a little similar, the hem is not so long, the cuffs are not so big, and it is still the right side, but the buckle is not at the shoulder blades, but has been moved between the chest and abdomen, the neat two rows, still round, there are two more inexplicable short belts on the shoulders, I don't know what they are for, the silk silk around the waist has been replaced with a wide band, and the words animal skin are noted on it. In addition, a visibly improved felt hat was painted above the neckline, which was smaller than before, and the brim was cut short by a whole section, except for the brim at the forehead, which was completely preserved......

"This is what the commander said about the military uniform?" Zhou Zhengyu opened his mouth and smiled bitterly.

Li* nodded: "Yes, this is the military uniform!" ”

"Everyone is going to wear this thing to go out in the future?" Shen Chen's scalp was numb and he looked at the strange dress on the hemp paper, and complained in his heart, this dress was too ugly. He does not deny that Lee * is a commander who is very worthy of his follow, and his merits are very numerous, but absolutely not including the current whimsical idea of the so-called "military uniform".

Bad taste, a bad taste that must not be condoned......

"My lord, you don't have to wear the same clothes, do you? As long as the colors are roughly the same, right? ”

Shen Shenjun said tentatively with a dry smile.

"No, if we can't unify the standards and styles of the whole army in terms of clothing, then it will be useless to spend money on this military uniform!" Li * didn't speak, and Wei Xun, who had been looking at the design plan on the side, vetoed Shen Chen's opinion.

Originally, it would have no effect to do this Laoshzi, Shen Chen secretly rolled his eyes and scolded.

"Excuse me, my lord, what is the strip on this shoulder? What's the use? The tailor asked tremblingly.

"That's called a shoulder strap, master, for marking the rank of officers and soldiers." Li * said with a smile.

The old man nodded in surprise to show his understanding, and then shook his head again, as if he did not quite understand how to judge the rank of an officer and soldier from such a short belt. Lee* smiled, but didn't explain much.

"Big ...... My lord, I still don't understand the use of making this thing, isn't it good to have this money to do something else, and it's good to buy some food......"

Zhou Zhengyu hesitated.

Li * glanced at him and smiled, but did not speak, but Wei Xun accosted: "Brother Zhou, wearing clothes of the same color and style on your body, the brothers will feel more like a family, they will feel more cordial and down-to-earth, and they will feel that their family is amazing, whether it is marching or fighting, they will work together and work harder...... I can't tell, it's better anyway......"

Zhou Zhengyu opened his mouth and questioned in a low voice: "Yes, why don't I think?" ”

Li * pondered for a moment and asked, "Master, how long does it take to make these clothes?" ”

The tailor thought for a while and said, "If the villain makes it alone, it will take two years to make these clothes, and if two apprentices do it together, it may be faster, but it will take at least a year......

"Three months!" Lee* looked determined.

"Huh?" The old tailor shuddered, and although he shouted in his heart that it was impossible, he hesitated and feared not to speak.

"In this way, master, I will invite a few more tailors from the city of Yanzhou, plus some women on the mountain who can do female labor, to do it together. Separate the parts of these clothes, for example, the sleeves are made by a special person, the front placket and the back placket are made by a special person, the shoulder strap is made by a special person, the buttons are made by a special person, the belt is also made by a special person, and the hat is made by a special person. The three of you are responsible for these 300 suits, and within three months, how about getting one of my soldiers to put on them? ”

Seeing that the old tailor hesitated and didn't dare to answer, Li * smiled: "Don't worry, I will give you enough wages!" ”
