Guangyuan City was already in sight, Yang Hao couldn't help but shake his whip, "snapped" a whip flower, turned around and said, "Hey, we're about to arrive in Guangyuan City, can you still hold on?" ”

Bisu lay on the car with a "bleak face", raised his head lazily and said: "I can't die for a while, when I get to Guangyuan, I have to find a good student in Langzhong for diagnosis and treatment first, otherwise if it goes on like this, my little life will really be explained here." ”

Yang Hao shook his head and said: "Then who is to blame, I said that the water can't be drunk, it's not that we can't make a fire, you might as well boil it and drink it, you don't listen, it's good, go all the way, pull all the way, let's come all the way if you get lost, don't be afraid, you can find it back when you smell it." ”

Bisu Xing's eyes widened, and he said coquettishly: "you, are you a dog?" ”

Yang Hao shuddered and said embarrassedly: "I said, there is no one else here, can you stop pretending to be a woman, on a hot day, my hairs are going to stand up." ”

"Who is going to pretend to be a woman," Bisu rolled his eyes, and he was about to cry: "You think I'm coquettish?" I'm not angry...... Weak, ouch, it's not done, it's not done, you stop it, I'm ...... I still have to go for convenience. ”

Before the car stopped, Bisu slipped out of the car on his stomach and dragged it into the grass on the side of the road like a duck, Yang Hao shook his head with a wry smile and stopped the car on the side of the road.

When the two of them were in Niushou Town, Haosheng made some preparations, and Bisu used pig bristles to make a beautiful beard to help Yang Hao stick his face, and this handful of beard was glued on, Yang Hao's originally slightly thin and delicate face immediately became a bearded man, looking forward to it, majestic.

According to his instructions, Bisu washed the lead and changed it to a clear soup and noodles. However, he was born a man and a woman, as long as he wears women's clothes, even if he doesn't dress up much, he is still delicate and lovely, but the slightly dusty charm is gone, but more like a woman from a good family.

The two dressed as husband and wife all the way west, Yang Hao claimed to be the personal guard in front of General Cheng of Guangyuan's defense envoy, this time he went home to get married, and heard that the war in the northwest had started, so he hurried back to participate in the war, and brought his newly married wife. Yang Hao is dressed like this, and there is a young and beautiful woman by his side, even if there is really a picture in the hands of the official inspector, he can't recognize his true face, not to mention that County Lieutenant Zhao intends to defend him, this case has never listed him as a murderer at all, and the patrol along the way has never been ordered to arrest the murderer Yang Hao. They heard that this strong man was returning to Guangyuan with his wife to fight, and these inspectors who set up cards along the way had great respect for him, and after checking his waist card, they rarely made any trouble, and the two of them had a very smooth journey.

Although he was a thief, he seldom suffered hardship, and the long journey was really hard, so when he passed through a village, he repeated his old trick and stole a carriage from the house of a large family in the village, and the speed of the two of them was much faster.

Yesterday, when I traveled through the barren land of more than 100 miles, because of the hot weather, Bisu did not listen to Yang Hao's dissuasion, and saw that the water source in a lake on the side of the road was quite clear, so I went to the lake to drink a few sips of water, but I didn't expect to break my stomach. Fortunately, the two knew that they would pass through a long period of no man's land, and they carried a lot of food and salt, so Yang Hao washed some light salt water with him, and often poured a few sips on him, so he rushed to Guangyuan, otherwise this delicate pseudo-mother would become jerky due to dehydration.

After a long time, Bisu came out of the grass lazily, the little face was white and yellow, he walked back to the carriage weakly, lay down on the grass, and groaned: "Let's go, if I don't get some medicine to eat, I'll be finished, and I will break out in a cold sweat on my body......"

Yang Hao hurriedly whipped the carriage, and Bi Su lay on the carriage and chirped: "This time in Guangyuan, what do you plan to do, enlist in the army and become a big soldier?" ”

Yang Hao said: "Well, on the battlefield, if you want to take a stand, I'm afraid there is no second way except to be a soldier, right?" You don't have to worry, you and I are fateful, you and I are like brothers along the way, I can get to Guangyuan safely this time, thanks to your help, for this affection, I will always settle you down before I can leave with confidence. ”

In fact, Yang Hao had no intention of joining the army, he didn't know anything about the various military knowledge of marching and fighting in ancient times, that is, he only knew how many people were in a squad or platoon, let alone the ancient army establishment. The establishment of the army is not known, the weapons and equipment are not known and cannot be used, and the ranks and ranks of the upper and lower officials are not clear, and this is only the simplest common sense in the army, not to mention the marching and camping, ambush and charge, battlefield fighting, and command and dispatch. He has not yet inflated himself to the point that he can be a general and command some specific battles because he has more than a thousand years of knowledge than a human. If you can't be an official, I'm afraid you can't be a soldier, and those who go to the battlefield with a knife are bandits, and it is impossible for the regular army of the imperial court to ask a person who has not undergone basic training to be paid as a soldier.

But now that he wants to have the power to bring down the Ding family, is there a second way besides finding a way out of the army? He couldn't think of it, he couldn't think of the only way to go, even if it was full of thorns and facing death at any time. With the relationship between General Cheng, a special case may not be impossible.

Yang Hao's thoughts are naturally inconvenient to talk about and listen to them. Bi Su listened to his answer, thought thoughtfully for a while, climbed forward, the dead dog was generally on the wooden wall of the mule cart, with the bumps of the car, shook his body and said: "Boss Yang, to be honest, I look left and right, up and down, I can't imagine what you will look like when you wear a leather hat and armor." Enlistment...... You better save it, if you really get to the battlefield, you don't wait for you to mix up your personal appearance, you have already become a vain ghost. ”

Yang Hao smiled and said, "Actually, with your skills, if you don't become a thief and become a sergeant, you may have a lot to do." ”

Bisu said lazily: "Forget it, my light kung fu is useless on the battlefield." Fighting on the battlefield relies on the real kung fu of a knife and a gun, and the skills of the people in the rivers and lakes are useless. If you can get a half-official position under General Cheng, even if you are a local official, I also have the heart to go to you to ask for a serious mission, just to be a soldier...... I'm not that material. ”

Yang Hao smiled: "Cheng, if it is really as you said, I can get a stable messenger, I must ask you to come and help me." Now it's better to go to the city first, find a doctor to diagnose you, you have to be good, and you have to cure the disease first. ”

Bisu rolled his eyes and said angrily: "How good is it, am I a dusty woman now?" ”

At this time, it was close to the city gate, and there were already some pedestrians on the road, and when the pedestrians saw a handsome little woman lying on the car without a figure, they couldn't help but look at him, and when they saw it, they couldn't help but scream: "What do you see, have you never seen such a handsome old lady from the slave family?" ”

When the passers-by saw that this beautiful and sick woman was crazy, they were immediately frightened and scattered.

Before the two of ※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※them entered the city, they first turned to a secluded place, Bisu changed back into men's clothes, and Yang Hao also washed the fish glue on his face and ripped off his beard. This time, Bisu was wearing ordinary men's clothes, not monk's robes, and after tearing off the woman's wig, the top of his head had grown an inch of hair, which looked more like a little novice.

With the waist card of General Cheng's mansion, the two of them entered Guangyuan City smoothly, they first drove the carriage and horse to the market for the price to sell, and when they got the money, they went to Lang Zhong, prescribed a prescription, and went to the pharmacy to buy medicine, and placed the wall in a small shop, and then Yang Hao said goodbye and left, and hurried to Cheng's house.

After half a year, he returned to Chengfu again, everything was still the same, even the soldiers guarding the door had never changed, but now Yang Hao's mood is very different, seeing all this, there is really a bleak feeling that things are wrong. He had no time to feel nostalgic, hurriedly stepped forward to take out the waist card to show his identity, and asked the soldiers of the house to report in, and after a while, the white-haired old housekeeper of Cheng Mansion personally greeted him, and when he saw Yang Hao, the old housekeeper shouted: "Ouch, my little ancestor, the old man still thinks that you are not coming, why did you appear now." ”

Yang Hao was stunned and said, "What does the old housekeeper mean by this?" ”

Cheng Lao Butler said: "The old man has been repairing books for you for the adults a long time ago, and if you want to join the army, you will come as soon as possible, and you will have a good future." But you don't have any faith at all, and now that the generals have led their troops to the battle, why did you come to ......, okay, okay, let's go in and say, this is not the place to talk. ”

Yang Hao walked into the mansion with him in confusion and said, "Old housekeeper, Yang Hao has never received a letter from your mansion, when did you write a letter?" ”

The old housekeeper of Cheng Mansion said curiously: "Have you ever received it?" How is this possible, the Ye family car dealership has an outstanding reputation, and the old man specially pointed out that he wanted you to sign for it, but they did not deliver the letter. Hey! This matter is not over, I have to settle accounts with them when I go back, and I received the old man's money, and they dare to delay such a major matter.

Yang Hao was full of wonder: "The old housekeeper once had a letter, this ...... Where to start, I don't know what the old butler's letter says? ”

Old Butler Cheng took him away from a side hall, served tea to people, sat down separately, and sighed: "Brother Hao, you missed an excellent opportunity." ”

Yang Hao became anxious and hurriedly asked, "Old housekeeper, what is the matter, you can explain it clearly." ”

When the old butler Cheng was out commanding the troops, the old man had to take care of the big and small affairs of the Cheng Mansion, and he could be regarded as General Cheng's confidant, and he handled many secrets, and the housekeepers of ordinary people couldn't compare, he sighed and said: "This matter was originally a huge secret and couldn't be said explicitly, but now this matter is no longer a secret." The old man will tell you to listen. In the first two months, my general received a secret letter from the imperial court, saying that the official family wanted to personally conquer the Northern Han Dynasty, and asked the Northwest Frontier Army to prepare as soon as possible to clarify the detailed work of the Northern People.

When my family got the letter, they thought of giving you a chance to get ahead. On this northwest ground, if you want to be promoted, the only way to make military merits is the fastest shortcut, but you have never been a soldier for a day, and you have enlisted in the army in a hurry, how can you be an official, if you are given a position as a colonel, as the general's personal guard, and I don't know when you will have the opportunity to make military achievements. If you are allowed to fight, there are no eyes on the battlefield, even the general may not be able to protect himself, who will take care of you, you are the great benefactor of my Cheng family, in case there is a mistake, my master will not go. This is a coincidence, the official family came to the Northern Han Dynasty in person, the official family is wise and martial, this time he personally led the army to the west, at least there is a seventy percent chance of victory. My general would like to give you a messenger who will be in charge of the correspondence between the general's camp and the official camp. ”

Old Butler Cheng said that his mouth was dry, he hurriedly drank a sip of water, and said: "Don't underestimate this military mail messenger, the military mail messenger is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the messenger post officer who contacts the camp can face to face, but the position is not low." This errand is easy and less dangerous, but once the official family wins a big battle, the meritorious deeds are rewarded, but you are indispensable for your credit, which is a rare advantage and difference. At that time, the general of my family will naturally have a reason to promote you, you are well-behaved, clever in work, and you have the care of my family, after 357 years, I am afraid that you will not be able to become an important person in charge of the Northwest Army's postal espionage? The one who can do this mission has always been the henchman of the main general, and it is very majestic. ”

"God, isn't this a civilian job in the army, and it's the most popular civilian job, which doesn't need swords and swords, but can hold great authority." Although Yang Hao has never been in the army, he also knows that this ancient military post is not just a system for transmitting and reporting messages, it is a system that integrates various important tasks such as espionage, use, and communication. If he can become an important figure in such a system, then he will not call for wind and rain in the local area, and if he can one day become the helmsman of this function, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the Great Song Dai Li on the northwest ground.

Hearing such news, Yang Hao's heart was pounding, but he didn't think deeply about it while being nervous, thinking that although Cheng Shixiong felt his great kindness to the Cheng family and had the heart to recruit and repay him, then arranging a place with oil and water to give him a good or bad would be regarded as a reward, how could he take such painstaking steps to arrange for him to go to the emperor's camp to gild, and boast about his merits, so he could easily give him such an important position? Does he have such the ability not to mention, such a rash promotion of a newcomer, even with Cheng Shixiong's prestige in the army, he has to take into account the dissatisfaction of officials at all levels, is there no other reason for such enthusiasm?

Speaking of which, this arrangement was vigorously promoted by the girl who "peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze". Miss Zhe told her brother General Zhe about the strategic ideas he said that day, what "concentrate horses and use them in a unified manner", "grasp the initiative in passivity, concentrate forces, promote local advantages, and take the initiative to create advantageous fighters for themselves".

This battlefield veteran never thought of reforming the tradition of using troops left by his predecessors, but it didn't mean that he couldn't see the benefits of such a change, Zhe Ziyu only repeated Yang Hao's words, and with his old and spicy eyes, he felt what a major change such a slight change meant to the situation in the northwest.

Yang Hao's method is indeed effective, and for the Song people who lack horses, it is the most effective way to bring their combat power to the highest level under the existing conditions. There are many factors that determine victory or defeat on the battlefield, such as the right time, favorable location, people, armaments, logistics, the command level of the generals, and the combat effectiveness and morale of the non-commissioned officers...... Any improvement in any factor may affect the change of the entire battle situation and the success or failure of the battle, and being able to master a powerful mobile force will have a powerful chess piece when dealing with an enemy army that is known for its mobility.

But it's such a simple method, but I don't know how many famous generals have never thought of changing it because they have become accustomed to the old deployment methods that have been passed down. This new way of thinking was first thought of by the Germans during World War II to apply it to military affairs, and they put tanks and fighting vehicles into battle in groups, but when they faced the British and French armies that still scattered tanks as auxiliary troops, they dealt a fatal blow, which opened up a new combat idea for military command.

According to this method, the family concentrated on the use of horses, and it really worked well against the enemy's northwest miscellaneous hu, and in the past, people wanted to fight, and if they didn't want to fight, they left, and took the initiative to completely control the hands of others. This time it has severely dampened the enemy's spirit, especially the Qiang people in the northwest are in turmoil, and the Qiang people in the northwest are in turmoil, and they have invested heavy troops to fight step by step, and concentrated an elite cavalry from time to time to take the initiative to find the enemy to fight, annihilating thousands of elite enemies, and quelling the rebellion in the fastest time.

Seeing that Yang Hao's method was indeed effective, the girl who had a good impression of him was now even more favored, and immediately encouraged her ninth uncle to promote Yang Hao. Miss Zhe's ninth uncle is the main person in charge of the spy department of the Folded Family, although Miss Zhe does not work under him, she is actually similar to his military advisor. There was a strong recommendation from the girl Zhe, and seeing that his words had such a great impact on the tactics of the Zhejia army, Uncle Jiu also agreed. But it is not hasty to promote and reuse a person, he still doesn't want Yang Hao to know that it was the Zhe family who shook an olive branch to him, so he instructed Cheng Shixiong to come forward, which can be regarded as a further investigation of him.

Yang Hao has a great favor to the Cheng family, and now it is the meaning of the folding family, what else does Cheng Shixiong not agree. It's just that all kinds of intelligence news transmitted through the military mail system need to be registered, and the official family wants to drive the expedition in person, his people have not yet arrived, and the eyeliner of the imperial court has been all over the northwest, Cheng Shixiong didn't want to leave any handle, so he asked the old housekeeper to repair a book, and notified Ding Hao to come as soon as possible through the civil mail channel, so as to make proper arrangements for him.

Of course, this letter will not be so detailed, let alone what official position he is promised and what future he will be given in the future, but between the lines, it has been revealed that there is a great opportunity in front of him, if he intends to join the army and leave the place to serve General Cheng, then he will come as soon as possible. Who knew that after this letter was sent, it sank like a stone into the sea, until Cheng Shixiong sent troops to go out with the official's family, and Yang Hao did not appear. Cheng Shixiong only said that he had no ambition and had no intention of leaving his homeland to join the army, and the five girls from the Fuzhou family were even more disappointed.

God knows that creation makes people, Ding Dagongzi was already interested in Ding Hao at that time, and in order to keep him, he actually burned the invitation letter against his will, and an opportunity above the clouds slipped away from his hand.

Yang Hao secretly thought that if there was really such an opportunity, it would be equivalent to entering the secret service of the Northwest Military Circle, and it was very likely that he would be in an important position, with this identity, he didn't know how much power he had in his hands, and he wanted to go back to Bazhou to take revenge and clean up Ding Tingxun, Ding Chengye's father and son, it would not be as easy as blowing his fingers. Now that opportunity is gone?

He hurriedly asked, "Old butler, you are one step late, and now ...... Is it too late? ”

The old housekeeper said: "Now that the war has been ignited, how can there be any reason to join the army." If you are placed in the army more than a month in advance, it is logical to send you as an envoy at this time. Now...... The official family has personally led the army to the front of the battle, and the two armies have exchanged troops, and the battle is fierce. If you rush to the army, you will immediately be appointed with an important messenger to the camp to convey the military information, which is too eye-catching. Besides, you don't know any rules, and you haven't been a soldier for a day. At this juncture, my general does not dare to take risks. ”

Yang Hao's heart sank when he heard this, and he was speechless. When the old housekeeper saw his expression, he comforted: "However, you don't have to be too anxious, you are still young, and there is a chance." This battle, the odds of victory are very great, but if the Khitans send troops, we may not be able to destroy the Northern Han Kingdom, this battle will still have to be fought in the future, my general is intended to be promoted, you will not worry about the day of not coming out. ”

Yang Hao sighed: "Don't hide it from the old housekeeper, this letter has indeed not been received." But he had already made up his mind to serve in front of Cheng Daren's army, and he didn't want to be an official...... is still second, but now that the war ahead is urgent, this is an opportunity to temper and forge himself, Yang Haoshi is unwilling to stay in Guangyuan and wait for the next opportunity. Is there a way for the old housekeeper to serve the general before he rushes to General Cheng's army? ”

"This ......" The old butler's white eyebrows furrowed, and he muttered: "Brother Hao, now that the war is urgent, at this time in front of the army, it is impossible for a person like you who has never been a general to lead the army to be entrusted with an important position." All you can do is wave the flag and shout, and the pawn who charges in front of the formation, you ...... Do you want to go? ”

Yang Hao groaned slightly, and said firmly: "Go, of course I want to go!" I missed a good opportunity, but I didn't necessarily fail to seize the second opportunity or create it myself. But if I stay in this Gwangwon City, I will never have a chance! ”

The old butler shook his eyebrows and praised in a deep voice: "Okay, the young man is terrible, and his ambition is commendable." Then the old decay will fulfill you, find a way to send you to the front of the army, as for whether there is a chance, it depends on your creation! ”
