Chapter 175: On the way

Let's say that Gu Siyun stumbled out of the door, and his own rosin took the dagger left on the table and a hanging of money to Gu Yanzhang, and after a long time, another dart master came back to say goodbye, saying that he had to follow Gu Siyun out of the city and saw him go west.

Gu Yanzhang saw that he left the dagger, and he also had a few points in his heart, and saw that he only took two pieces of money, so he couldn't help nodding secretly, thinking that this clan brother couldn't help it at all. When he heard that the man had gone to the west, he stopped paying attention, but said that he knew, and then he threw the matter away, and went back to tidying up his house.

He was about to set off the next day, and he was going to send Ji Qingling to Chen Hao's mansion, but he was insisted on by the little girl.

"There's no big deal now, it's a hassle to move around, you can come back in the last month, can you sort things out at that time? Besides, it is really uncomfortable to send people under the fence, everyone in that place does not know, take a letter to the past, although others see that Chen Chen's face is not good, and they don't know how to mutter. ”

"Now that we have no property and are light, where is there anyone to worry about? There are more than a dozen people up and down, and there are dart masters guarding the door, which is enough. ”

Because he heard her say this, Gu Yanzhang thought about it in his heart, and sure enough, this is the truth, and he thought that since Ji Qingling went to the court and met the judge, the patrol shops in the vicinity have come here to inspect more frequently, and nine times out of ten they have been explained from above, so they are no longer reluctant.

That night, he ordered his bags again, Gu Yanzhang pulled Ji Qingling to sleep early in the morning, the two shook hands and talked in the middle of the night, and early the next morning, he reluctantly resigned from his home and went to count the baggage with Xu Da outside the door of the Nafu Library.

When he arrived at the place, Xu Da had not yet come, but there were already many people waiting here, and there was a yamen messenger who helped to count the heads, handed the roster and the baggage list to Gu Yanzhang, and asked him to count.

After finishing all the colors for a while, seeing that the hour was coming, Xu Da really hit the horse and came from the corner of the street. He saw that Gu Yanzhang had arrived early, and when he asked, he heard that the other party had made all the other preparations, and the color on his face looked a little better, and said with a smile: "You kid, you are diligent." ”

But they re-ordered people and things together.

Chen Hao said early that he would allocate 200 soldiers to this line, but he didn't have it from scratch, and the state checked the book for half a day, and only allocated the 200 soldiers from Daning County on the way to Xu Da, and told them to deploy it when they got there.

The two of them, with several long husbands and hundreds of people, escorted hundreds of cars of baggage, stepped out of the city by the hour, walked all the way day and night, step by step, and stepped to Daning County.

Since the recovery of Yanzhou, Yang Kui was bent on attacking the Northern Barbarians, and almost half of the soldiers in the nearby prefectures and counties were transferred.

Xu Da looked at the head of the person, although he was still not satisfied, but he also knew that it was difficult to have a better one, so he had to hand over the order and take the person away the next day.

The more you go forward, the more news you receive from the front, but the more miscellaneous it becomes, and later, you can see the rush almost every day, one person and four horses, galloping in the direction of Yanzhou.

Seeing that one day was about to come to the front, there was a heavy snow in the sky.

It was already a frontier, and a war zone, and there was no place for supplies, and occasionally there were one or two abandoned camps, and if there were none, everyone had to fence up the chariots and horses, simply set up a tent, and burn a fire for the night, and then it snowed heavily, and by tomorrow the road would be covered.

"If you don't stop tonight and drive all night, what do you think?" Xu Da turned his head and asked Gu Yanzhang.

If it is said that when they first met, Xu Da only regarded Gu Yanzhang as a credit for gratitude, so that he could use this to seek officials in the capital in the future, and later on the way back to Yanzhou City from the security army, he had already changed his opinion of him, and felt that this person was eye-catching and smart, and he was a young man worth befriending.

And this time from Yanzhou to the front of the battle, the other party dotted along the way, all aspects, with his arrangement, his own family almost didn't have to bother, this is not counting, the group compared to the original time, but two days earlier, and the people in the middle of winter, obviously the daily road is a lot more than before, but the complaints are less than half.

He watched his deeds, and in his heart he had long ignored the person's age, but regarded him as a deputy who could be discussed in case of trouble.

Gu Yanzhang looked at the weather, calculated the distance again, turned around and asked the people and soldiers about their foot strength, and then gave Xu Da a reply, saying: "Give one more hour when you rest, tell everyone to make up for sleep, grit your teeth at night, and estimate that you can get through it, but when you get to the camp, you have to give more food and hot drinks in that place." ”

Xu Da can still call the shots for this small request, he nodded and agreed.

Gu Yanzhang saw that he had no arrangement, so he summoned a few soldiers by himself, explained to them first, and then asked someone to pass it on to the people below.

Since it has been decided, it is better to give orders as early as possible, so that the soldiers and people can also be prepared, than to wait until the evening.

In the eyes of ordinary people, there seems to be not much difference between a few hours earlier and a few hours later, but in terms of example, if you suddenly learn that you can't rest tonight when you are resting, your frustration and resistance will definitely be extremely vigorous, and when you finally accept it, you will have to set off again, which is extremely demoralizing.

At this time, tell me in advance, although I am impatient, but when I rest, no matter how much I complain about my anger, the anger is almost consumed, and I have already accepted this fact, and I will seize the time to eat and rest.

One morning and one night, it seems to be just a slight difference in time, but the impact on the foot strength and morale of the people and soldiers is huge.

Sure enough, when everyone heard that they were going to travel all night tonight, although they were full of complaints, they couldn't resist after all, and when they got to the next abandoned camp, everyone stopped to eat, and everyone hurried to rest.

Counting the hour, Gu Yanzhang also lay down in his clothes, slept for most of the hour, and then got up early, woke up everyone, and everyone reorganized their baggage and went on the road again.

The two armies intersected in front of the battle, and it was almost to the front line at this time, this time he set off, Xu Da was extremely cautious, and he rarely summoned two hundred soldiers - speaking of two hundred, in fact, it was only more than one hundred and thirty people.

It is the norm in the Great Jin army to eat empty salaries, one hundred soldiers, eating twenty or thirty empty salaries, is already extremely kind, this time two hundred soldiers, eating seventy empty salaries, is also very normal.

He counted the heads, said a few words in a loud voice, and personally instructed the soldiers under his head to carefully explore the way along the way, pay attention to the enemy's situation, and be sure to carry all the bows and arrows on their backs, so as not to encounter an enemy attack and have no time to deal with it.

After the rectification was completed, the baggage was checked again, Xu Da gave an order, and shouted in his mouth: "Go!" A team of nearly 300 people, escorting a long convoy, meandered all the way out.
