Chapter 217: Military Parade (4)
Xu Chen and the three entered the barracks, and Wu Xing led them to the compound of the Yancai, which used to be used as a meeting place for generals in the army because of their permanent residence.
There was a group of people in the compound, and there were some disheveled soldiers with weeds in their mouths gathered next to them.
A few soldiers at the gate of the courtyard leaned together against the courtyard wall to bask in the sun and chat, when Xu Chen's group walked over, those soldiers didn't pay much attention, but they heard one of them say excitedly: "The little lady I found last night is really amazing, that job, make Lao Tzu fluttering, so unhappy, compared to the one you said, what kind of famous prostitute in the city is much cooler!" ”
"Let your mother's fart, the little lady you said is still in the camp, let Lao Tzu try to know who is powerful!"
The soldier still wanted to speak, but he was glanced at by the people on the side, and he saw Wu Xingda walking in front of him, followed by three officials, and couldn't help but cheer up, and began to speculate about what happened in the camp today, and the people who came to the court actually didn't worry about the words and deeds exposed just now, it should be said that they didn't have that kind of awareness.
This group of people who bowed saw that the chief had entered the compound, but they didn't collect it at all, but they didn't see it, since someone noticed that the three officials from the court of General Wu Lang were talking about each other for a while.
Obviously, Wu Xing did not inform the sergeants of the military parade, and the news of the military department came in the morning, and Wu Xing, the old slippery head, also guessed that the military department squire was definitely not here for the military parade, and he had no other intentions, not to mention that the emperor had not engaged in martial arts for decades, but the military department had this meaning, and he would not come to such a place where birds don't, right?
The guess is that this squire came here under the guise of martial arts for another purpose, Wu Xing was very excited, and the first feeling that came up was: Does the emperor remember me? Why do you want to use me to send this squire to investigate?
Wu Xing did not inform him of the martial arts. At this time, he led Xu Chen and the three of them into the main hall in the compound, but he didn't find that Xu Chen had already turned a blue face, where is this to be a soldier, it is normal to say that there are some entertainment activities in the barracks, but these soldiers are all hanging children, and there are even people who recruit prostitutes, how can the hell look like a soldier, if the Tang Dynasty army is so general, it is strange not to be beaten by An Lushan, and I have a premonition of what the next military parade will be.
On the way up the mountain, I asked some of the riders about their current condition. Wu Xing only said that there are 1,000 active soldiers on the road, as for the horses, weapons and other military supplies, there is basically no money, and the annual money and food are reported to Yu Linwei, and the expenses are not very large, during which Wu Xing naturally complained more than once, mainly because this riding has nothing to do over the years, and it is inevitable that there will be some complaints.
Therefore, when Xu Chen saw the current state of the barracks, he did not immediately get angry. But it's also depressed, Wang Tangzheng's kid naturally told him that the soldiers of this cavalry are now all rich children who come to mess around, but it is a stubborn disease to be so deadlocked, since Xu Shilang is here. But it needs to be rectified.
When he entered the lobby, he saw a table of wine on the side, Wu Xing hurriedly beckoned the three of them to sit down, and the three of them glanced at each other. I also saw that this old boy obviously didn't plan to take Xu Chen to patrol the three armies.
Wu Xing warmly invited, but Xu Chen stood there without the intention of entering the table, and Wang Tangzheng said: "General Wu is not polite. I waited for Shang Shu's order to come to patrol the three armies, but I still finished my errand first. ”
Immediately dumbfounded, Wu Xing was startled when he saw Xu Shilang standing there with a not very good-looking face, and his heart fluttered, is it really to come to martial arts? No, what kind of martial arts did you run to the horse? Is it that the imperial court wants to completely get rid of the Yanqi?
I couldn't help but think about it for a while, Wu Xing thought about it carefully, it was not right, the court has not disbanded the Yan Qizi because there are many children of the family here, and the background is complicated, even the emperor is tricky, where can he say that he can do it, but this Xu Shilang looks like he wants him to look good, and he has a lot of suspicions.
I didn't dare to snub the big officials who came from the court, and I persuaded each other with good words, saying that it was tiring to travel and carrying, and it was not nutritious to eat first when it came to the meal, but Xu Chen didn't hang him, Wu Xing saw this posture, and knew that this was going to be true.
The horses have not been assembled for many years to this point, and now the only job in the army is to take turns guarding, and the soldiers are used to being lazy, if this squire is specially running over to find trouble, Wu Xing is not afraid, the court doesn't care about it, the prince has been offended, this squire really wants to find fault, and he is really not afraid of offending, but he still called his subordinates in.
When a general came in, Wu Xing ordered him to gather the army, and the man also hesitated for a moment, seeing that Wu Xing was fierce and vicious, and retreated after receiving the order.
Xu Chen just thinned Wu Xing's face, this old guy is not very happy, people in the officialdom are often moody, but this Wu Xing is born in the army after all, and he has been in this place where birds don't for so many years, Xu Shilang didn't give him face, so he immediately showed it on his face, the so-called broken jar is broken, and no one cares about the riding now, you squire is full and looking for trouble, look at your face?
After all, he is a squire, and his official position is quite big, so he has to give some face, Wu Xing said: "Squire, wait here for a while." ”
Wu Xing made a gesture of invitation, but the three of them sat down, but Xu Chen didn't pay much attention to Wu Xing, this little old man is estimated to be used to being the king of the mountain here, and he was kind and pleasant at first, but when he heard that he was going to talk about martial arts, he changed his face, where did Xu Chen look at his face, since he came, he had to make some movement.
At this moment, I heard the horn drum blowing outside the courtyard, all the sergeants were dumbfounded, and everyone who was bowing also stopped, most of them came here to be soldiers, they had not heard much of the horn drum, this sound everyone was curious, and the commander who led the order stood in front of the courtyard and shouted: "The general has an order, and the officers and men of the three armies will gather in the north of the camp at three o'clock in the afternoon!" ”
After he finished singing, the horn drum sounded again, and the guy picked up the order flag and ran out, probably to inform the others.
"I'm not a perennial court, I don't know what Xu Shilang means by talking about martial arts today?"
Wu Xing sat in front of the hall and straightened up and asked.
"The cavalry is a forbidden army, and the officer has been ordered to come to talk about martial arts, does the general think there is anything wrong?"
When Wu Xing heard this, he glanced at Xu Chen suspiciously, when did the imperial court produce such a young squire? Why did the military department suddenly come here to talk about martial arts, is there any concern in this? (To be continued......)
