"Why?" Ma Ling frowned.

"These are all sinners, and if we should warn future generations with this incident, how can we pay compensation for the soldiers who died in battle? It is reasonable to hang the city gate, thinking that the latecomers will quit and compensate this generation is never feasible. In addition, the people of the Eastern Crusade should be punished for their crimes, and no matter how big or small the merit is, they are not allowed to make meritorious deeds! Duan Xiushi glared at Ma Lan and said extremely excitedly.

"Cheng Gong! Do you know what you're talking about! Ma Luan's face changed suddenly, "Even if they have a thousand faults and their sins are not as good as their families, and now that they are dead here, can't their family even take one hundred and fifty yuan!" That's not all, thousands of Eastern Expedition athletes have opened up territory for the Tang Dynasty, and the army has been set off for two days, but you want me to be rewarded for my merit! Cheng Gong, you really want to make these thousands of athletes mutiny! ”

"General! The so-called merit is clear, and those who make mistakes are not punished, how can they warn future generations? The people of the Eastern Crusade are all disrespectful to military orders first, I see which of them dares to mutiny! Duan Xiushi raised his neck and said murderously.

Ma Lan gritted his teeth in anger, glaring at Duan Xiushi and not knowing what to say.

He has been friends with Duan Xiushi for more than ten years, and he knows that he has always regarded military discipline as greater than the sky, but what he said today is inevitably too outrageous.

If you go out to fight, it's nothing to explain to the athletes in advance, but now that the army is gone, what is the matter with you coming to do it now?

Not giving the families of these dozen or so athletes who died in military law is even more unacceptable to Ma Lan. A seven-foot-tall Tibetan man, who died in a foreign land, is not worth a hundred and fifty dollars? If a person is dead, should he bring shame on his family?

Duan Xiushi is very self-disciplined, but he is not a person who is a scholar, otherwise a scholar would not be able to stay in Anxi for so many years. Speaking like this today is very different from what it is on a regular day.

"Cheng Gong, what kind of medicine are you taking?" Ma Lan really couldn't bear it anymore, and couldn't help but be annoyed.

"If the general is not like this, who will still look at the military discipline in the future, I still don't have to be a waiter!" Duan Xiushi glared at Ma Lan, but he didn't give in.

"Then you don't want to be it!" Ma Lan said slightly angrily.

"General, I'm afraid that this good situation in the river will be ruined in your hands!" Duan Xiushi took out the seal letter from his bosom, threw it in front of Ma Lu, and turned around angrily with more than a dozen pro-soldiers and left.

“…… If there is no Lao Tzu, where would there be a good situation in this river! Ma Lan was so angry that his mouth was crooked.

has been with Duan Xiushi for so many years, and there has never been such a time. Even if there was a dispute, Duan Xiushi was too much. Who is the chief general and who is the staff?

Being made such a fuss by Duan Xiushi, Ma Lan's mood became extremely bad. The faces of the pro-soldiers also showed a different look, obviously disagreeing with Duan Xiushi's later words.

"Big brother, Junzi Duan is very different from normal today." Ma Yong said in a low voice.

Ma Lan smiled bitterly: "This guy has endured it for so long, he feels uncomfortable if he doesn't vent, forget it, I don't care about him!" ”

Pointing to the dozen or so corpses on the ground, Ma Ling shook his head: "Buried it!" Each person is still a pension of one hundred and fifty yuan, and I will pay this money myself. ”

"Big brother, the brothers of the Crusade ......"

"How can there be a reason to declare guilt and meritorious service afterwards! It's business as usual. Ma Lan waved his hand.

No matter how much he respects Duan Xiushi, he can't make concessions in this matter. Besides, Duan Xiushi is Du Yuhou, and the merit is a matter of joining the army, and it is not the scope of Duan Xiushi's interference.

Ma Qiang said in a low voice: "Big brother, Duan Junzi is really a little different today. ”

Ma Lan waved his hand, not wanting to mention this matter again.

In front of so many people, he still has to give Duan Junzi a face, and he is no longer ready to comment on this matter.

Ma Yong picked up Du Yuhou's seal letter from the ground and handed it to Ma Lu. Ma Lan received the letter in his arms, and was ready to wait for Duan Xiu's anger to disappear, and then go and have a good talk with this guy.

In the final analysis, it is just a few little girls of different races who have died, even if there are fewer Silla maids who die like this every year in Chang'an City, Bai Lotian has not been born yet, but the fun of a pear flower pressing begonias is what the nobles like. Not only the Silla maids, but also the daughters of the Han family are so miserable.

Each man has his own life, and when he dies, he dies, and there is not much difference between dying under the sword and being humiliated to death, it is just one death. The Turkic miscellaneous soldiers killed tens of thousands of Mulu people, Anxi Jian'er slaughtered two or three thousand Mulu people in the city, and then executed thousands of high-ranking Abbasid families, Duan Junzi endured it, but today it suddenly broke out inexplicably.

Duan Xiushi is more than two years older than him, and he can't see it at such an age, he is really too phlegm, so he must talk to him about it. A foreign race is a foreign race, this is not Guannei, nor Anxi, not even in the river, but in the distant Mulu, this land where the Tang army has not yet fully gained a foothold, and it is not yet the time to show mercy.

……

Duan Xiushi left angrily, but did not leave Mulu, but stayed at the residence and did not go out again. Ma Lan also put his mind at ease, and didn't pay attention to him for the time being, preparing to wait until he was a little angry and then talk to him.

A few days later, a young general from Sipin came to Mulu from Fishing City. When Ma Lan saw this guy with a huge bow on his back, he couldn't help but kick it.

Niu Xu smiled, standing there and hiding. Ma Lan also regained a little strength at this kick, kicked Niu Xu a stumble, and scolded: "Little calf, don't you get angry with your Uncle Pony?" ”

Niu Xu scratched his head and said, "If Uncle Pony is, how dare my nephew be angry with you." The little nephew came all the way from Chang'an and had a gift for Uncle Xiaoma. ”

As he spoke, Niu Xu took down a leather bag from his back, put it on the table with a bang, and then opened the opening, and suddenly a foul smell came to his face.

Ma Lan hurriedly covered his nose: "Seal it!" - Little calf, whose head is this? ”

Niu Xu smiled and sealed the leather bag, and said with a smile: "This is the dead eunuch." ”

"Which dead eunuch? Could it be Bian Lingcheng? ”

Niu Xu laughed and said, "It's this dead eunuch." I tried to kill him, but it took a lot of effort and I was almost killed by him. This guy's small kung fu is good, if I don't have a seven-stone bow, I may not be his opponent. ”

Ma Ling twitched the corner of his mouth: "You told me that night that Bian Lingcheng was a righteous man." ”

Niu Xu was ashamed and said: "Don't talk about Uncle Pony, my nephew is still too young." I didn't say goodbye that night, and I kept following Bian Lingcheng, in fact, I wanted to protect him. A few days ago, he was hiding in Tibet, and it was normal, but then he ...... Later, for some reason, he killed several mountain people who gave him food, and said that they were damn fugitives, and that he was the general of the imperial court, and that he should kill them. ”

"He was afraid that those people would leak the news, after all, he knew that the Son of Heaven would definitely arrest him." Ma Lan smiled.

Niu Xu nodded: "That's it." Such a person is naturally not a righteous man. I chased him for thousands of miles, and he couldn't stop and fight with me. I almost didn't hit him, but I shot him to death with a seven-stone bow. Later, I went back to Chang'an to look for you, and Uncle Lei, the eighth uncle, said that you had already set off, so let me come directly to the river to find you, and I will come with a head. ”

Ma Lan smiled and nodded. From the perspective of his view, he still stands on the position of a person who will come from the future. Killed Ashina Chengqing before, because Ashina Chengqing had followed An Lushan to trouble China in the original history. And now seeing Bian Lingcheng's head, he is also very happy, if nothing else, just for Bian Lingcheng to kill Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing in the original history.

In fact, nothing has happened yet, and it is unfair and absurd to look at the ancients in this way, but for Ma Lan, this is his position. That's why he gave Li Jing an order to secretly get rid of Shi Siming, all for this reason.

Niu Xu's farewell from General Sipin was left to Nan Jiyun when Ma Lan left Chang'an, without this farewell, Niu Xu would not have been able to come here so quickly. Niu Xu left Chang'an almost a month later than Ma Lan, and from his mouth, Ma Lan also knew something about what happened after he left Chang'an.

The most important thing is that although Ge Luofeng does not have the backer of Tubo, he is even more arrogant in Jiannan Road, and the army is directed at Shuzhong. A few days after Ma Lan left, the military information reached Chang'an, and the Son of Heaven was furious, and ordered Yang Guozhong, the former prime minister of Lingnan Province, to go to Jiannan Province as a white-clothed leader to defeat Ge Luofeng.

Ma Lan heard the news and understood that although Yang Guozhong's party had thirteen heads cut off, it still had power. Otherwise, where could Yang Guozhong be on the way to dispatch Jiannan, and the urgent documents happened to arrive in Chang'an?

Yang Guozhong is really not easy to follow, and he is about to make a comeback so soon. Without Tubo as a backer, Ge Luofeng still dares to be arrogant, Ma Lan will not believe it. If the emergency military intelligence document was not boring, Ma Lu would rather screw his head off.

Yang Youniang has now become his woman, but Yang Guozhong hates him to the core. Now that Yang Guozhong is in charge of the Jiannan army, maybe after a while, Yang Guozhong will be able to return to Chang'an with the credit of defeating Nanzhao. This is also a big problem for Ma Lan.

The only thing he relies on now is Li Longji's trust, and this trust itself has no foundation. If Yang Guozhong returns to the court and shakes his lips in front of Li Longji every day, it will be a big problem. The trust of the Son of Heaven is extremely ridiculous, if Yang Guozhong can make the Son of Heaven sober up and no longer trust Princess Yuzhen's nonsense, then the power in his hand is afraid that he will lose it in an instant.

However, this place is too far away from Chang'an, and now that the battle in Jiannan Road may be clear, Yang Guozhong's fate has changed, and it is useless to think about anything.

What he can do now is to do his duty, settle down the Eighth Army in the river, and then split the black clothes and food, the rotten quagmire in Chang'an, he doesn't want to think about it anymore.

"Uncle Pony, I'm all here, when will you let me go to the battlefield?" Niu Xu looked at Ma Xuan and said eagerly.

"Don't worry about this, tens of millions of aliens, you have killed them." Ma Lan smiled, and suddenly his heart moved, "Little calf, I have something strange here, you go and check it for me first." ”

"What's the matter?" Niu Xu asked.

"You go to my Duyu Hou Duan Junzi to observe for a few days, I always feel that something is wrong with him." Ma Lan said.

"Uncle Pony, do you suspect that he is a bad person?" Niu Xu asked.

Ma Lan shook his head: "He is my brother, just like your master." (To be continued.) )
