Chapter Twenty-Three: Su Lie
Chapter Twenty-Three: Su Lie
Thanks to the Dark Bloods, Fun Recommended Votes. Today's first update.
"I am the eldest Sun Tang of Tuntian Lang sent by the Ministry of Industry." Changsun Tang said that when he arrived at this place, he had to tell the basic information.
"Oh, it turned out to be Lord Changsun, since it was sent by the imperial court, let's not go to the post station first, let's go to the general's mansion to report first." Listening to the eldest grandson report to his family, this group of soldiers and ruffians did not have the same respect as before.
The eldest grandson knew what these people meant, and it used to be for the sake of Wang Tiedan's feelings, but now they are doing business.
The three of them turned around and gave a few orders, and then led the three of them towards the city.
"As a frontier defense point, don't you need to check your waist card when you enter the city?" Ge Feng questioned.
"Xiao Qi, check the waist card." Ma San'er immediately ordered.
Under the gaze of the eldest grandson and Ge Long's murderous gaze, Ge Feng was repeatedly touched by the three big men from beginning to end, especially a certain part was taken care of.
Ge Feng's case vividly tells us a truth: if you don't die, you won't die. At the same time, he also warned us that we can eat indiscriminately, but we should not talk nonsense.
Fortunately, these people are still a little measured, perhaps because of Wang Tie's courage, Changsun Tang and Ge Long were spared.
"Are you satisfied?" Ma San'er said.
"Satisfied, satisfied. Ladies and gentlemen, you are really discerning. "This Ge Feng just learned this idiom from the boastful words of the eldest grandson a few days ago, and now it is freshly baked.
"Now that you're satisfied, let's go." Ma San'er didn't look back, and led Wang Tie's horse and left.
According to the style of Changsun Tang in the past, some rituals are usually sent in this season, but this time there is none.
What some people need is respect.
For these border soldiers, this kind of knife licking blood will be numb after a long time, and the first thing to look at is to look for the location of the knife, and the thought in their hearts is what the consequences of a knife in this place will be. Time may heal these imprints in their hearts, but it won't work all the time.
While we enjoy the ease of life that peace brings and complain about the injustice, these people may be lying in the snow and ice to protect it.
There are people who deserve our respect.
"Ma San, how long have you been in Shuofang?" The eldest grandson asked.
"It's been more than three years." The voice is very indifferent, as if he has seen through everything.
"Wasn't that when Li Shangshu captured Jieli Khan three years ago, you also participated?"
"Participated." Ma San'er didn't continue, as if everything was a nightmare.
"Can you tell us about the situation?"
"Brother Wang didn't tell you? You better ask him. There was no answer, and I was no longer willing to recall the original situation.
After such a long period of contact, Changsun Tang still knows very little about Wang Tiedan, but judging from the accent, he is roughly a person from Hebei, but what Wang Tietang did made Changsun Tang very relieved.
Respect begins with trust.
"Can you tell me about your general?" When the eldest grandson escaped from Chang'an, he didn't even inquire about these basics, and when he arrived in Jinyang, he didn't even know such a famous task as Shi Lichang, the governor of the prefecture.
"There's nothing to say, no matter how great your achievements are, isn't it a matter of you court officials opening their mouths." Ma San'er estimated that he did not suffer any loss for this mouth.
"I can't decide that. And this time, I'm here to see if I can land near Shuofang, and if I can, I don't have to transport grain from Guannai here like before. Changsun Tang explained.
"Hey." Sighing, Ma San'er continued: "This General Su can also be regarded as Li Shangshu's disciple, and it can be regarded as a great achievement to follow Li Shangshu to capture Jieli alive that time, if others don't say that he is a duke, the marquis will not have to run, but this Li Shangshu and General Su were transferred back to the capital to be a Shangshu, and the other was promoted to a Zhonglang general." You know, it's a cold winter, and this grassland can freeze people's ears, so you have to pay attention to changing places when you pee, otherwise that guy may be able to freeze you. Ma San'er finally said that the longer you hold some things in your heart, the bigger the fire will be.
"In such bad weather, General Su took three hundred of us as the striker to catch Jieli off guard." Ma San'er unscrewed the water bladder and poured a big sip down, and the eldest grandson estimated that it was wine.
"It's just that even though it was a sneak attack, there were not even a hundred of the 300 people who could come back on their own, and even the little finger of the general's right hand was sawed off because of that time." The tone is still very flat, but the sadness revealed in the flat tone cannot be concealed.
"Brother Wang was that time, in order to save a few of us, his left hand was slashed, and he didn't deal with it in time, and when he returned to Shuofang, his whole hand turned black, and all that flowed out of the wound was transparent water......" Ma San'er couldn't go on.
Changsun Tang just thought that Wang Tie Dan would hide some stories behind him, but he didn't expect such a thing.
Ma San'er didn't say more, raised his head and drank the wine in the water bladder, he drank a little urgently, and the whole neck was filled, and the faint smell of wine diffused.
The eldest grandson gestured, and Ge Long handed over a bag of wine.
Ma San'er didn't say anything, and took a big sip of wine as soon as he raised his head and poured it in.
"Ahem." The situation that Changsun Tang expected appeared, and Ma San'er kept coughing, but he didn't squirt.
"Good wine, it's just a little spicy!" Ma San'er's demeanor immediately changed.
The city was not large, and the four of them soon arrived at the center of Shuofang City.
Although this Shuofang is a military location, it is not big, and it is not much different from a county town in Guannai.
Shuofang is called this name because it is located directly north of Chang'an, but this place is not Shuofang County in the Han Dynasty, but belongs to Xiazhou.
The two main streets will say that Shuofang City is divided into a regular and neat part, as a military fortress, Shuofang's Fangcheng structure is not as grand as Chang'an, but the role is more comprehensive, here is basically a huge barracks, will not consider the convenience of life, everything is based on war as the first priority.
At any time, the border army is the most important military force of each dynasty, not only because the border army bears the responsibility and task of defending the territory, but also because the border army often participates in large and small battles and has rich combat experience.
This Shuofang Castle is under the jurisdiction of the Kannai Province Zuo Wuwei. The Governing Body is located in the center of the city, and like a spider, all the wind and grass around it will converge here.
Ma San'er led the way, and the three of them were only slightly interrogated, and the eldest grandson was released after showing the appointment documents.
At this moment, there was a loud laugh in the lobby.
"Hahaha, this eldest grandson is also interesting!"
"It's not a good habit to speak ill of people behind your back." The eldest grandson replied loudly.
The laughter was louder.
"In the next eldest grandson, I have seen the general." Changsun Tang said.
"In the Lower Su Lie." didn't get up, although the eldest grandson has another title, but this title is really not on the table, and it will be discriminated against wherever he goes.
However, the impact of these four words on Changsun Tang is still a bit big.
