Chapter 42: Zhao Mo Comes

Before dawn the next day, Lu Chengkong suddenly woke up from his dream, and when he opened his eyes, where were there still people around? He hurriedly got up and walked out of the tent, and saw that everyone was washing outside the tent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Seeing this, Pang An stepped closer, handed Lu Chengkong a few steamed buns, and said: "The military department has sent an order, and Zhao Mo and General Zhao of Chang'an, as well as Lingzhou Assassin Shi Quan Zongzhi and Quan Da Da will all come to the army, you must not run around!" ”

Lu Chengkong took the steamed bun and asked while eating, "Who is General Zhao Mo?" ”

Pang An said: "I heard my father say that Zhao Mo is the general of Jin Wuwei in the capital, and his official residence is from the third grade. ”

As soon as Lu Chengkong heard the word "general", his eyes lit up, and he asked, "Jin Wuwei is responsible for the security and inspection of the capital and the palace?" ”

Pang An replied: "Exactly, it is said that this General Zhao Mo is the younger brother of the current queen, but he is the uncle of our Tang Dynasty." ”

At this time, Tianlu also walked over, and continued: "Yes, I heard them say that Uncle Guo ...... this time But he came to rob the military merits. ”

Pang An frowned, and said sharply: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

Tianlu knew that he was speechless, smiled and stopped talking.

Pang An followed his father Pang Zhengkuan into the military government when he was a child, and the father and son are similar in nature, both are heroic, and they are even more unambiguous in major matters. Pang An was the oldest of these people, and everyone regarded him as a brother.

Lu Chengkong's impression of generals comes from TV series, each of them is majestic and heroic, and he secretly thought in his heart: "It doesn't matter what kind of uncle he is, I will definitely go to see what this legendary general looks like." ”

As soon as he turned his head, he saw that several sergeants in the distance had begun to practice on their own, these people were naked, holding Tang knives, and with a force in their hands, they were only practicing this splitting, chopping, picking, and stabbing. In this world, Lu Liang has hoped that Lu Chengkong can gain fame since he was a child, glorify his ancestors, and will not let him do heavy work, and put all his energy on reading sage books, so he is thin and has never learned a trick and a half.

At this time, Lu Chengkong was wearing a military uniform, in the barracks, and listening to the sound of drills around him, he suddenly felt proud in his heart, as if he was also a government soldier. His hands were itchy, and he also wanted to practice with the soldiers, but when he touched his body, there was only a dagger brought from home.

Although the sky was only cloudy and shining, there were already patrolling government soldiers walking back and forth from time to time.

Lu Chengkong didn't dare to be too public, so he had to bow his head and walk into the tent. When he saw that there was no one in the camp and nothing to do, he took out the dagger, and after comparing it a few times, he felt bored, so he took the dagger back to his waist, sat on the bed, took out the "Lu Sheng's Art of War" and looked at it, and said secretly in his heart: "Although I am not good at force, I am proficient in the art of war, and I am still waiting for me...... I, the 'General Lu', thought of a strategy to break the enemy. Let you see, what is the meaning of 'strategizing, winning thousands of miles away'! ”

As soon as the sky was bright, I could only hear the sound of horses' hooves outside the tent, and one person shouted: "General Zhao Mo of Jinwuwei has arrived!" Lord Lingzhou Thorn Shiquan has arrived! ”

The avenue in the camp was surrounded by soldiers on both sides, and Lu Chengkong squeezed forward, poked his head straight, and saw a group of dozens of horses galloping to the gate of the barracks. The group came out of the barracks, and the person at the head was Ao Hong, the commander of the Yingxian Military Government, and behind him stood Luo Tian, the commander of Guoyi, and the people from the military government who he knew on weekdays.

"Zhichong Du Wei Aohong, see General Zhao and Master Quan!"

"Guo Yi Du Lieutenant Luo Tian, see General Zhao and Lord Quan!"

……

There were two horses at the head of the team, and one on the left had a thin face and was dressed as a civil official. Lu Chengkong thought to himself: "This person should be the Lingzhou Assassin Shi Quan Zongzhi." ”

The other person on the right, supported by the two guards, staggered off his horse and said with a smile: "All soldiers are exempt from courtesy." "This man has a fat head and big ears, a face full of oil, and his bright armor is shining.

Lu Chengkong rubbed his eyes, and looked more carefully, this person's head should be too bloated, he was not wearing a helmet, he was wearing a longitudinal armor belt from the neck down, and the heart goggles hanging on the outside of his stomach were pushed to the side, and the whole person looked like a big wooden barrel filled with water, which was extremely incongruous.

"Could this be Jin Wuwei...... General Zhao Mo? The appearance of the person in front of him is 108,000 miles different from the mighty general in Lu Chengkong's imagination.

"General Zhao, please!" Although Quan Zongzhi on the side was dressed in civilian clothes, he seemed to be energetic and not angry.

Zhao Mo looked at the soldiers gathered around with a smile, and kept nodding and said, "Soldiers...... What a spirit! Then he laughed "haha", and Tongquan Zongzhi walked into the army camp, followed by a cadre and others.

The surrounding soldiers all shook their heads, where does this Zhao Mo look like a general? It's just that no one dares to talk about it in private.

In the army, the chief general is vainly discussed, and the crime is to be killed.

Datang's Zhichong Mansion is only responsible for recruiting and training soldiers, and it directly belongs to the Beijing Guard.

The capital guards are divided into: Yiwei, Xiaocaiwei, Wuwei, Jinwuwei, Weiwei, etc. The guard is located in the middle of the imperial court, and the garrison is in the capital division. Among them, Jin Wuwei is responsible for patrolling the imperial palace in the capital on weekdays. And the right to transfer troops is only in the hands of the Tang Emperor, every time there is a war, the general will be selected by the imperial court first, and then the military department will give the soldiers. After the leader of the army obtains the talisman, he can go to the Zhichong Mansion everywhere to lead the troops. Although the local history is only in charge of political affairs, it still needs to be checked.

Although Zhao Mo is the general of Jin Wuwei, he can only eat, drink and have fun, relying on the identity of the uncle of the country, and has nothing to do all day long.

On weekdays, although the nobles of the palace in the capital are respectful to him on the surface, they regard him as a straw bag in their hearts. As soon as Zhao Mo heard that Cui Xiliang had rebelled, not only was he not worried, but he thought it was a great thing, and immediately asked the queen to beg the Holy Lord to give him this 'heaven-sent opportunity' to lead the troops to the battle. I thought to myself: "Just with a mountain ruffian in Cui Xiliang, how big a wave can he make?" As long as you have enough troops, you will definitely be able to win a great victory. This time, he quelled the rebellion, made military achievements, and after returning to the dynasty, he was able to call the wind and rain and shut everyone's mouths. ”

Lu Chengkong returned to the camp tent and saw Pang An and everyone already sorting out their weapons on the side.

Pang An saw Lu Chengkong and hurriedly asked, "Where did you go, so you weren't afraid of being seen by Uncle Lu?" After a pause, he turned to say: "But it's better to be seen by Uncle Lu, and immediately arrest you back to the county, which also saves me from worrying all day long." ”

Lu Chengkong hurriedly straightened out the crooked military uniform on his body, patted his chest, and said proudly: "Look at the way I put on the military uniform, even if I am standing in the ...... In front of Uncle Lu, he won't recognize me! ”

Pang An picked up the Mo knife and said: "This General Zhao must be comparing the talisman with Lord Quan, it seems that we will go to war tomorrow." ”

Lu Chengkong watched Pang An pick up the seven-zhang long Mo knife, which was very majestic, so he walked over, and wanted to try wielding the Mo knife. He reached out and tightened his grip on the hilt of the knife, but it took all the strength of his body to barely lift it.

"I ...... I! Just this moment, Lu Chengkong felt that his hands were numb, and his whole body was like a deflated ball, and he immediately softened, and as soon as his hand was released, the Mo knife was about to fall to the ground.

"Hey!" Pang An caught the falling Mo knife with one hand, turned around easily, glanced at Lu Chengkong, and shook his head incessantly.

Lu Chengkong's hands were still a little painful, and he thought straightly: "What...... How can it be so heavy? But there are more than 20 pounds? ”

Pang An cherished weapons very much, he carefully put the Mo knife aside, and said: "This knife is full of thirty catties!" Uncle Lu said that you have no power to restrain the chicken, can you be convinced now? ”

Lu Chengkong was not angry, he admired Pang An very much, and when he thought that he would be able to go to the battlefield tomorrow, he became interested and asked: "The Mo knife is so heavy, how can you swing the knife freely on the battlefield?" ”

Xu Li, who was on the side, was the same age as Pang An, and his temper was extremely short-tempered, he laughed twice and said, "Lu Gongzi, how can everyone move this Mo knife?" In the entire Yingxian Military Mansion, there are only six people who can move the Mo sword. ”

Tianlu said: "The entire military government, that is, Brother Pang, Brother Xu, several other army commanders, and Captain Wu can make the Mo sword. ”

Lu Chengkong carefully looked at the weapons in the hands of several people, and thought to himself: "It turns out that our ancestor is really smart, even if it is a weapon, he can make so many tricks." If I can bring this Mo knife back to the future, I will definitely be able to display it in a museum. ”

Xu Li saw that Lu Chengkong, a weak scholar, was actually interested in weapons, and he was also interested, and said: "The big knife in Pang An's hand is called 'Mo Knife', which evolved from the horse chopping knife, with a double-sided blade, the handle is four feet long, and the total length of the knife is about seven feet, thirty catties, and the blade can break the shield and pierce the armor. You have to remember that weapons are the left and right arms of our soldiers, and the Mo knife is the king of swords. ”

As he spoke, he stood up, took out a knife about two feet long from behind him, and said, "This is a 'horizontal knife', which is a weapon carried by the soldiers of my Tang Kingdom, also known as the 'Tang knife'." ”

Lu Chengkong took the Tang knife in Xu Li's hand, only to feel that it was heavy and cold, and a chill spread all over his body, and he looked at it cautiously, and said: "I have heard of the Tang knife, but I didn't expect it to be called a horizontal knife." ”

"This knife has a narrow blade, a thick spine, and a long and straight blade, which is most suitable for battlefield fighting." Xu Li withdrew the knife, his expression became serious, and said, "Master Lu, you don't even have a weapon, how can you go to the battlefield?" If an enemy slashes at you, how do you dodge? ”

"I ...... I'll ......" Lu Chengkong couldn't answer for a while.

In order to make Lu Chengkong give up the idea of going to the battlefield, Pang An deliberately said to Xu Li: "This kid can only talk on paper, even if he knows it clearly? Don't you even have the strength to lift a knife? He turned his head to Lu Chengkong and persuaded him: "Chengkong, don't stay in the army, you should hurry up and respond to the county and prepare to enter Beijing to take the exam." If Uncle Lu finds out that you came without permission, my brother will not be able to help you at that time. ”

These days, Lu Chengkong has regarded Pang An as his eldest brother, and in the face of his preaching, he was not angry, and said perfunctorily: "Don't worry, in a few days...... I'll go back after a few ****. I'm in the camp, and I don't run around. ”
