Chongxian, an ordinary dwelling, is feasting guests, more than a dozen tables are opened, the table is full of chickens, ducks, fish and meat, showing the solidity of this family, the host of the turmeric cow sits high on the main seat, the furrow on his face shows the vicissitudes of his past, at this time, he is full of wrinkles because of the smile and squeezed together, the two eyes are narrowed into a slit, a pair of calloused hands do not know where to put it.

Today's Jiang family held a banquet, in order to celebrate the Jiang family's son Jiang Heiniu was promoted to the general of the Dingzhou army, Jiang Heiniu was conscripted into the army when the Dingzhou marshal lived in Chongxian County, followed the marshal several battles, not only earned ten acres of Yongye field for the family, but also was selected into the marshal's personal guard battalion after the war, and immediately because he commanded the personal guard in the capital Luoyang to defeat the Royal Forest Army in the exercise and was promoted to general. He became the first guard in the commander's guard battalion to be promoted to a general. He was also the first of the thousands of soldiers who enlisted in Chongxian that year to become a general.

Jiang Heiniu held the wine jug in his hand, walked around the table where a group of fathers and villagers were sitting, and saw whose wine glass was empty, so he hurriedly filled it, and everywhere he went, people were respectful and bowed to him, "Hello General!" "Congratulations General!"

Listening to these congratulatory words and seeing those humble smiles, Jiang Heiniu couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion, and his mind couldn't help but think of the old fruit chief who always chewed grass roots at the corners of his mouth, it was he who taught him how to fight and how to survive on the battlefield, but in the battle of Fuyuan, this respectable boss left him forever, but Jiang Heiniu never forgot the calm smile on the corner of his mouth when he faced a life-and-death decision on the fierce battlefield.

Not only him, but also thousands of soldiers who enlisted in the army together, only more than a thousand people can survive, these people have now become the backbone of the Dingzhou Army, most of them have become low-level officers, and those who have died, but they are only afraid that grass has grown on the grave, and only their own relatives can remember them!

Fortunately, the marshal built the martyr's hall in Dingzhou, so that the souls of these heroes who sacrificed their lives for Dingzhou have sustenance, and there are cigarettes to worship, so that they will not be lonely and lonely.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded outside, and everyone followed the sound, but saw a soldier with a signal flag behind him rushing forward, Jiang Heiniu was slightly stunned, and immediately walked up quickly.

"That's the ginger black cow general!" The messenger rolled over and dismounted, shouting at a loud voice.

"I am!" Jiang Heiniu greeted him.

"The Marshal's Mansion is urgent, Jiang Hei Niu Ginseng will immediately go to the Dashuai's Mansion to see you! When the messenger arrives, he will set off! The messenger took out an official document from his body and handed it to Jiang Heiniu with both hands.

After receiving the order, Jiang Heiniu glanced apologetically at the old father and mother, as well as the younger brother who was shuttling through the crowd and pouring wine, he wanted to accompany them well by visiting relatives this time, but it seemed that he had another task.

Jiang Huang Niu stood up, and her old wife in the house also heard the sound and stood side by side with him, Jiang Hei Niu ran to them, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed three heads to the two: "Father, mother, the child is not filial, and he is leaving again." ”

Turmeric Niu's eyes were moist, and the marshal's mansion ordered, it must be another war, and his son will set foot on the battlefield again, her wife's body trembled slightly, and she said after a while: "Black Bull, be careful!" ”

Jiang Heiniu smiled slightly, "Don't worry, mother, I'll be fine." Yimu motioned his own soldiers to go to the house to pack their luggage, and went to pull his younger brother by himself, and said: "Qingniu, I'm not at home, you have to be filial to your father and mother, in addition, you have to study hard, don't think that you are old, you don't need to read, even if you can't read the famous hall, at least you have to read and break words, Dashuai said, the future readers will be more promising." Don't worry about the farm work at home, my army is enough for you to live on and hire some helpers. ”

Jiang Qingniu choked up and said, "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely honor my parents and study hard." ”

Well! Jiang Heiniu nodded with satisfaction, looked at the soldiers who brought the salute and led the war horses, Jiang Heiniu waved to the surroundings, "Fathers and fellow villagers, it's rude, everyone eats and drinks well, and the old fathers, mothers, and young brothers in the family are restless, please everyone." ”

Everyone stood up and saluted together, "Don't worry, Lord Counselor!" ”

Jiang Heiniu nodded to everyone, turned over on his horse, looked back at his home that he hadn't returned for two years, turned his horse's head, and galloped away with the messenger.

Li Qing looked at Jiang Heiniu standing in front of him with appreciation, this is a young general who has been sharpened step by step from the battlefield, has momentum, has brains, is good at absorbing all the knowledge that is useful to him, plus he is not arrogant or impatient, and his humble background has made him develop a cautious attitude, these characteristics make him stand out from thousands of guards, the battle of the capital is his famous work, let people see his on-the-spot judgment as a general, command ability.

"Black Bull, this time there is an important task entrusted to you." Li Qingdao.

Jiang Heiniu stood straight with his legs together, "I will definitely live up to the expectations of the handsome." ”

Li Qing smiled and said, "Our neighbor is in trouble, come to us for help, I decided to let you lead a newly expanded battalion to Fuzhou to suppress the bandits." ”

"Ahh Jiang Heiniu was taken aback, he thought he was going to fight with the barbarians, and he wanted to come to the neighboring state to suppress the bandits, or in the neighboring state, he couldn't help but be disappointed and happy, disappointed to go to fight the bandits, with the combat effectiveness of the Dingzhou soldiers, it was not to be captured, happy that he finally had his own battalion, a full five thousand people!

"What's wrong, unhappy?" Li Qing said with a smile.

"No, Dashuai!" Jiang Heiniu touched his head embarrassedly, "I just feel that I didn't go to fight the barbarians, and I was a little disappointed." ”

Li Qing laughed, "This time's task is much more complicated than fighting the barbarians, well, when you clean up the bandits in Fuzhou, you can go to fight the barbarians." ”

Jiang Hei Niu was overjoyed, "Da Shuai, how long did it take to fight a few bandits, so Hei Niu will be able to come back soon?" ”

"I'm afraid that it may not be, it may take a long time to suppress bandits in Fuzhou this time."

Jiang Hei Niu was dissatisfied when he heard this, is Da Shuai not satisfied with his ability, "Da Shuai, please rest assured, Hei Niu will never let you down, and he will definitely wipe out those bandits soon." ”

Li Qing looked at him with a smile, "The problem is that you can't kill these bandits." ”

"Why?" Jiang Heiniu was a little stupid, didn't the big marshal specially send himself to suppress the bandits, why did he say that he couldn't say such a thing?

"Do you know the mountain wind?" Li Qing asked.

As soon as he heard this name, Jiang Heiniu couldn't help but show a look of admiration in his eyes, "Dashuai, I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it, he is a famous brave general in our Dingzhou, I heard General Wang say that he is brave, even our General Wang can't win against him, Hei Niu admires this kind of person the most." ”

"The bandit leader in Fuzhou is him!" Li Qing looked at Jiang Heiniu and said lightly.

"What?" Jiang Heiniu was completely stunned, "He, when did he come out of our Dingzhou?" ”

Li Qing didn't speak, just looked at Jiang Heiniu with a smile, Jiang Heiniu's voice became smaller and smaller, and slowly, there was a hint of realization on his face, "Dashuai, you sent him, we want to annex Fuzhou?" ”

Li Qing patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, it is worthy of being a student taught by me, it is really good, in a word, you go this time, nominally to suppress bandits, but in fact, you are going to slowly control Fuzhou in your hands, especially Hailing, the first thing you do when you enter Fuzhou is to firmly control it in your hands, and then cooperate with the mountain wind to encroach on Fuzhou." All your actions will be under my direct command. ”

"Yes!" Jiang Heiniu clasped his fists and saluted, "General, when will I leave?" ”

"Let's go meet your soldiers first! Once you're familiar with it, let's get off as soon as possible. "Li Qingdao." These soldiers are rookies who have just been recruited, only a small number of officers are veterans, after you take them to Fuzhou, you must let them grow up as soon as possible, let them see blood, Fuzhou still has a lot of real bandits, and now they are taking advantage of the fire to rob, you just take them to train soldiers, when we control Fuzhou, your army will set foot on the real battlefield, how much can survive at that time, it depends on how well you train in Fuzhou! ”

"Don't worry! How long did it take, and the Black Bull brought you a strong army that was not inferior to any old battalion. ”

Xiang Xianhe, who was said to be in Dingzhou, finally saw the Dingzhou soldiers who went to Fuzhou to fight, and saw the neat columns of troops walking in front of him, he smiled with satisfaction, and looked at the military appearance of this army, he knew that this was indeed a strong army, 5,000 people walked in front of him in an eight-way column, looking horizontally and vertically into a straight line, so that he couldn't help but be a little dazed, but he didn't know that in the Dingzhou army, the first thing after the recruits joined the army was queue training, In the eyes of Li Qing and others, these guys who are just some new recruits are already a first-class strong army in the eyes of Xiang Fat.

At this moment, Xiang Fat felt that the dozen catties of fat he had lost in the past few days were worth it, and the 1.5 million taels of silver he paid were finally rewarded, oh, no, it was 1.6 million taels, and he was knocked out of 100,000 taels by the woman in Qingfeng. But as long as this army enters Fuzhou, presumably the damn half-sky clouds will inevitably disappear.

Looking at this team and seeing their equipment, Xiang Xianhe felt that Li Qing was still worth handing over, although he was a little greedy and ruthless in asking for money, but the things he took out were indeed worth it.

There was a bright light in front of me. Xiang Xianhe's eyes were full of yearning.

"Marshal Xiang, are you still satisfied with this army?" Li Qing asked Xiang Xianhe with a smile.

"Satisfied, satisfied!" Xiang Xianhe laughed, "The soldiers of Dingzhou are unparalleled in the world, and they are really famous!" ”

"Of course, this is the elite I just transferred back from the upper forest, and is ready to attack the absolute main force of the barbarians! For the sake of you, I have a lot of blood, you know, for this matter, General Lu Dalin refused to meet me until I left the forest, and locked himself in the hut to sulk! ”

Lu Yiming and Shang Haibo on the side listened to Li Qing's nonsense there, and he couldn't help but smile on his face, he couldn't see that the handsome man was not red and his heart was not beating when he lied, and he was very calm!
