Chapter 141: Opening the Office and the Military Parade (Part II)
Zhao Yunze spent two days conducting a military parade with the officials of the Arsenal and the soldiers of the Internal Guard Regiment.
At the same time as the joint training was going on, Yan Liben, Fang Zhi, and Xu Jingzong led those envoys and craftsmen who did not participate in the military parade to make some arrangements for the arsenal.
Everything is just waiting for tomorrow's opening.
After dinner, the Arsenal Annexation gradually stopped the hustle and bustle of the day, and most of the people had rested one after another.
In a house in the residential area of the Internal Guard Corps, Hu Jiang and several of his cronies had not yet slept. They are secretly discussing the matter of giving Zhao Yunze a trick or trick on tomorrow at the military parade.
"Huang Si, since you think these people can be trusted, then call them all over." After some discussion, Hu Jiang said to the cronie named Huang Si.
Huang Si left the room for a while, and then came back with four people. These four men were four of the ten soldiers in charge of beating the drums.
"I've seen the general!" The four of them saluted Hu Jiang.
Hu Jiang nodded and asked the four of them, "You four, have you been with me for three years?" ”
"General, you're not mistaken, the four of us have been on campus with you for three years." A soldier said. The other three also nodded.
"How did I treat you when I was on campus?" Hu Jiang asked again.
"The general treats us well, and in the three years that we have followed you, we have lived a comfortable life." Another soldier said.
"And now?" Hu Jiang continued to ask.
"Alas, don't mention it, since I became a member of the Arsenal Bureau, I am tired from training, and I have been looked down upon everywhere. Just hold your breath just thinking about it! ”
"Who's to say it isn't! It's not that we don't want to train hard. The problem is that we haven't practiced for a few days before, so naturally we can't compare to those people from the former Right Wuhou military camp. Take tomorrow's military parade as an example, aren't a few of us being used as drummers? ”
"That's it!"
"Do you want to take this breath then?" Hu Jiang asked again.
"Of course I do! People live just to save face! ”
Hu Jiang saw that he had aroused the hatred of the four people, so he said: "This tone, this general will come out for you." However, you also have to do your part. ”
As soon as they heard Hu Jiang's words, the four of them glanced at each other, and a soldier said: "What does the general want us to do, just give orders!" ”
"Come here with your ears!" Hu Jiang beckoned to the four of them.
The four of them came to Hu Jiang, and Hu Jiang explained like this.
After explaining, Hu Jiang said again: "Whether you can watch Zhao Yunze's joke tomorrow and make him lose face in front of His Majesty, it's up to you." ”
"General, don't worry, we will do what you say!" A soldier said. The other three also nodded.
"This thing has been done, and it is a bad breath for our old brothers in the school field. The four of you are all heroes, and this general will be rewarded! ”
-- Cut --
Zhao Yunze did not return to Chang'an City tonight, but stayed in the arsenal for the night. Not only him, but all the officials of the Arsenal Special Administration also stayed overnight tonight. In order to make it easier to get up early tomorrow to prepare for the opening ceremony.
Although he lay down on the couch very early, Zhao Yunze never fell asleep. He was thinking about all the things that would open tomorrow.
For some reason, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart.
After he went through all the links of the opening ceremony in his brain, he didn't find any mistakes.
"Well, maybe I'm too nervous." Zhao Yunze comforted himself with a self-muttering voice.
At this moment, the question of the personal guard soldier sounded outside the door: "Who is it?" Hold it! ”
"I'm Zhou Qi from the Second Brigade of the Internal Security Regiment, and I have important things to see the Commander." The words of another man in a low voice rang out.
"The commissioner has already slept, and I will talk about it tomorrow."
As soon as the guards finished speaking, Zhao Yunze got up from the couch.
"I haven't slept yet, let him in." Zhao Yunze said as he put on his coat.
Immediately, the door opened, and a soldier dressed in the uniform of the Inner Guard Corps walked in.
"Subordinate Zhou Qi, I have seen the Commander." The soldier saluted Zhao Yunze.
Zhao Yunze waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite." What are you doing with me late at night? ”
Zhou Qi leaned over to Zhao Yunze's side and whispered, "Lord Order, at tomorrow's military parade, someone wants to cause you trouble." ”
"Oh? There is such a thing! Zhao Yunze frowned, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Zhou Qi told Zhao Yunze what Hu Jiang wanted him to do.
After listening to Zhou Qi's narration, Zhao Yunze did not speak for a long time.
I still think highly of Hu Jiang, this person is so ignorant! Usually it's just a fuss, but he actually wants to do something at the military parade, isn't this disregarding the honor of the entire arsenal.
"It's a good idea to use the drum beat to disrupt the march of the phalanx." Zhao Yunze smiled coldly and said. "If you're a veteran with skilled movements, it doesn't matter if you listen to the drums or not. However, you are all new to queue training, and you can only say that you are just starting out. Without the drumbeat, the queue can really cause confusion. ”
"Yes! The subordinates were also worried that our arsenal would be embarrassed in front of His Majesty and all the adults because of Hu Jiang's troubles, so they came to tell the Commander. Zhou Qi said, "My lord, you have to quickly think of an idea to deal with it." ”
Zhao Yunze smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, this little thing is not difficult for me." ”
After speaking, he asked Zhou Qi again: "Since Hu Jiang has handed over this matter to you, it can be seen that he trusts you." Why did you tell me about this? ”
"Lord Order, when I followed Hu Jiang in the school field, I lived a messy life all day long. Since I became a member of the internal security corps of the Arsenal Special Administration, I feel that this life has been a little bit better. Don't look at Hu Jiang trusting me, but I don't look down on him anymore. Only by following you can I have a great future! Zhou Qi said.
"You can actually use idioms! Have you read a book before? Zhao Yunze asked in surprise.
"Hehe, I went to private school for a few days when I was a child. Later, the family was poor and could not afford to go to school. My father asked someone to take me to an official's house as a servant. Later, when I became an adult, the proprietor wanted to find a future for me, so he sent me to the barracks again. Zhou Qi smiled and said.
Zhao Yunze nodded approvingly, reached out and patted Zhou Qi's shoulder and said, "The young man is good!" ”
After Zhao Yunze's praise, Zhou Qi immediately stood up straight. He was excited in his heart, it seemed that tonight this move was the right move, he entered the sight of the commander, as long as he worked hard, the future was immeasurable!
"Go back and rest. Tomorrow, you just have to follow Hu Jiang's instructions and beat the drum out of order during the column. Don't let Hu Jiang blame you! ”
Zhao Yunze's words made Zhou Qi wonder: "My lord, you already know Hu Jiang's plan, how can you still ......?"
"Just do what I say, I'm in my own way!" Zhao Yunze said confidently.
