Chapter 56: The Scout Squad (Part I)
The Tang army of this team heard that someone from the Shanliang side was running to this side, and they couldn't help but be ordered by the head of the scar, and they were immediately ready for battle, but the captain of the scar was secretly regretting, just now they were too careless, only caring about chasing and killing each other, but the thrown horse lance did not come to pick it up, although the people from the Shanliang side seemed to have a conflict with the Goguryeo big fish, but now the Goguryeo rout army is a group of mad dogs, for a little provisions, cannibalism is also very common, in case the other party is also an enemy, they can only fight with the other party with a horizontal knife, it's a bit of a loss.
However, as the sound of horses' hooves approached, Scar Shichang and the other Tang soldiers were relieved, the other party only had one horse, and even the enemy had nothing to fear. Although they thought so, their vigilance did not relax for half a minute, and let go of the reins of the horses and slowly moved forward Chapter 56 The scout team (above) moved forward, and when they saw the helmet style emerging from the side of the mountain beam, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the other party was their own people.
"Hahaha~, I finally found my own people, a few brothers have worked hard, dare to ask which general's subordinate you are?" The other party also discovered this Tang army squad, but this guy acted like a rookie, and as soon as he saw them, he ran over unsuspectingly, without the slightest suspicion that they were pretending to be Goguryeo.
As soon as Scarface heard the other party's pure Guanzhong accent, he immediately completely relieved himself, the black and thin boy who came looked definitely less than eighteen years old, wearing a thick cotton coat, wearing the Tang Army's uniform, hanging a horizontal knife at his waist, and immediately hanging a horse lance, the bow and arrow in his hand had not been hung back, and he was wearing a standard Tang Army uniform. At the same time, they also saw that the Goguryeo fish who had escaped for his life was lying on his back on the ground. He was hit by an arrow in the neck, and it looked like he was killed by an arrow from this young man.
"Little brother, what a handsome archery!" Seeing this Goguryeo big fish being pierced through the throat with an arrow, although Scarface regretted it in his heart, he still praised it with great admiration, and then said, "We are scouts under General Zhang, the governor of Yingzhou, and we were ordered to exterminate the nearby Goguryeo routs this time. Chapter 56: The Scout Team (Part I) I don't know where the little brother came from? ”
Scouts in ancient times, because scouts often have to go deep into enemy territory, so they have extremely high requirements for personal quality. They are generally composed of the most elite men in the army, who are equipped with the best horses and weapons in the army, and have extremely strong personal combat effectiveness. Sometimes it is also used as a special forces, although the scouts of this ten-person team are small, but as long as they don't face more than ten times the enemy army, they will definitely be fine, and they can even grind the other party to death little by little.
Hearing that the other party was a scout, the thin black boy immediately looked solemn and said respectfully: "Oh, my name is Li Yong, I was originally the guard of the Qi Palace, and His Royal Highness is gracious." Let us serve in front of the battle, and the younger brother is going to go to the king of Jiangxia. ”
This dark and thin young man is naturally Li Yong, who ran away, and with the help of his brother-in-law Yuwenhu and Yanbei, he secretly ran on the boat to the Liaodong Peninsula, although he was discovered by Su Dingfang when he got off the boat. I wanted to send him back. However, Li Yong begged with a dead face, and at the same time used the method of agitation, saying that Su Dingfang was afraid that he would surpass him in battle, so he didn't want him to go to the battlefield, although Su Dingfang would not be fooled, but he could also understand Li Yong's ambition. In the end, he turned a blind eye and let Li Yong 'kill' among hundreds of people, and at the same time let Li Yong 'capture' a lot of supplies and two horses, so that he could go on the road with the grain transport team to Jian'an City.
After arriving in Jian'an City, Li Yong, relying on his identity as a guard of the Qi Palace, exchanged a horse for a set of equipment and food with the local Tang army, and prepared to find Li Daozong, who had the best relationship with his father, and was now the deputy governor of Liaodong Province, and it was not a piece of cake to arrange a position for himself, and if there was any opportunity for meritorious service, he could also let him take care of one or two.
"King Qi's Mansion, but His Royal Highness the King of Qi who invented canned food?" As soon as he heard that Li Yong was the guard of the Qi Palace, a young Tang soldier immediately asked excitedly, but looking at his greedy look, it was estimated that he was much more interested in canned food than in Li Su.
Seeing the appearance of the young Tang Bing, the people around him burst into laughter, and Scar Shi pointed at him and scolded with a smile: "Erdanzi, why do you have a heart-eating kid?" If it weren't for His Highness inventing canned food, it is estimated that you would not even know who the famous King of Qi was. ”
Li Yong saw that what they said was funny, and laughed along with them. Erdanzi was a little embarrassed to be laughed at by everyone, but he still muttered unconvinced: "Is it original, the canned food invented by His Royal Highness King Qi is delicious, I will naturally remember." ”
While everyone was talking and laughing, they walked up to the Goguryeo general who was shot to death, and a veteran nicknamed Lao Dog jumped off his horse, searched the body of An Giro a few times, and in addition to some dry food, he even found a seal letter representing the identity of the other party.
"Look at the style of this letter, this guy is at least a general, but what is written on it, I don't know a word!" Scar Shi Chang stared at the seal letter for a long time, as a scout, he will naturally know some words, usually used when delivering news, but Goguryeo is deeply influenced by the Tang Dynasty culture, the seal letter is engraved with a small seal, with his shallow writing skills, he doesn't know the small seal at all, as for other people, even worse, their words are still learned from Scar Shichang, so the seal letter turned around in their hands, and finally returned to the hands of Scar Shichang.
"Let me take a look!" Li Yong said and took the seal letter and looked at it, although he was the same as Li Su, he had a headache when he saw the book, but he also had a formal aristocratic education, even if he didn't care, he still knew Xiao Zhen, so he saw him read slowly: "Beisha Water Army, An!" ”
"Hahaha~, it turned out to be him, congratulations to the big brothers, this guy turned out to be our old rival in Dengzhou, when I was in Jian'an City a few days ago, I also saw the pursuit warrant issued by the army for him, you brothers have made a great contribution this time!" Li Yong laughed and said, from the position and surname, let him immediately guess the identity of the other party.
The last time Li Yi went to Beisha City, although Li Yong was also on the ship, but because he was too far away, he didn't see An Jiluo's appearance at all, so he didn't know the other party, but because An Jia Luo was making trouble on the Liaodong Peninsula some time ago, he had been listed as the target of Niu Jinda's army, and he had seen the pursuit order for An Jia Luo when he was building An City, but he didn't expect to die in his own hands today.
"No, the person was killed by the little brother, this merit should be yours, we won't do anything to rob the merit!" When Scar Shi heard that the other party was the object of the Southern Route Army's pursuit, he secretly screamed in his heart that it was a pity, and the identity of the person who could be chased and killed by the army must not be ordinary, but the key is that this person was not killed by them, and he could only watch this great credit fall on the black and thin boy in front of him in vain, and everyone else was also depressed.
"What did the eldest brother say, this person obviously died at the hands of your brothers, what does it have to do with the younger brother, I am just a lost person, I want to ask the brothers to help guide the way!" Although Li Yong is eager to make meritorious contributions, he still disdains to grab this kind of credit picked up for nothing, after all, An Yiluo is obviously already a dish on their plate, but he was inserted by himself, if it is discussed, his behavior is simply a robbery, even if he returns to Chang'an in the future, he is embarrassed to brag in front of others.
Scar Shichang was a sincere person, and before he could react to Li Yong's words, the veteran named Lao Dog next to him immediately exclaimed with a look of surprise: "Yes, yes! This man is what you shot to death, and my little brother and we are witnesses. ”
"This~ this ......, thank you little brother for your success!" At this time, Scar Shi Chang and the others also reacted, since the other party clearly intended to give this credit to themselves, they naturally would not refuse, after all, such a big credit is enough to change their fate, and in the future, they will be worthy of their parents, wives and children in the family.
Inheriting such a big favor from Li Yong, Scar Shichang and they immediately became enthusiastic about him, and everyone introduced each other, Scar Shichang's surname is Liu, and he is generally called Scar Liu or Liu Shichang, there are five veterans and five recruits among the ten of them, for example, the second egg is one of the recruits, and he just went to the battlefield this year, and Scar Liu and the old dog are veterans.
"By the way, Brother Li must not have eaten yet, what is it, should we have a good meal, first, to catch the wind for Brother Li, and secondly, to celebrate?" Seeing that Shi Chang and Li Yong were still polite to each other, he stepped forward and interrupted, and his words were immediately supported by everyone, Li Yong also rushed to the road for nearly a day, and now he has not entered a drop of water, so he also raised his hands in favor of eating.
In normal times, Liu Shichang and the others would just gnaw on dry food to deal with it, after all, the smoke from the fire would alarm the enemy. But now that they are in the territory controlled by the Tang Army, they don't have to worry about this problem, plus the prey they have been chasing for a few days has also arrived, and they have to go back to recover their lives next, so they have nothing to worry about, so as soon as they heard about cooking, they immediately got busy.
Li Yong wanted to help, but was stopped by Liu Shichang and asked him to help him drag An Yiluo's body aside, and then cut off the corpse's head with a knife. He also stripped off the armor from the corpse, wrapped it into a bag and put it on the back of his horse, and the seal letter was cherished by him and put it in his arms, these are the proof of military merits, and they will all point to these things for their promotion and fortune in the future.
