Chapter 115: Turmoil at the City Gate

Guo Wei laughed and said: "This is the Captain Qin Zhen I know, your sensationalism just now almost made me a little confused." ”

At this moment, Meng Xuan walked over: "Captain Qin, I think there is a problem with your military order just now, and it is a little unreasonable. ”

Qin Zhen was stunned: "What's the problem?" ”

Guo Wei, Dong Cheng, and Zhao Feilong also looked at Meng Xuan curiously.

"The problem is, you are the commander-in-chief of the escort team this time, and you are the commander, so it should be me who goes to the front army, and you should sit in the rear army."

Qin Zhen said with a smile: "I have also thought about what you said carefully, this time the escort team is more suitable for you to sit in the rear army than me, and you are better than me in marching and fighting, if there is something wrong on the front army's side, you can organize rescue and counterattack faster and more effectively, if I get to the rear army, I will definitely not do as well as you." ”

Meng Xuan frowned and said, "Your reason is too far-fetched, there is no way to convince me." ”

Qin Zhen simply gave up the lame reason, and said directly like a scoundrel: "Anyway, the military order has been given in front of more than 200 sergeants, and the military order is like a mountain, and it can't be changed, you can't let me take the lead in violating the military order, so what is the majesty of my captain, and how can I lead the team?" ”

Hearing Qin Zhen's reason, Meng Xuan could only acquiesce, and could only say: "Then you have to be careful in everything!" ”

Qin Zhen moved his gaze to the sergeant who was inspecting the weapons and armor on the school field, his eyes were deep: "Although we are not going out to fight this time, there is no clear enemy, but it will not be easier than fighting, there are many unpredictable things along the way, I am in the front army, so it is convenient to deal with the problems encountered flexibly." And you are in the rear army, I can rest assured that the back will be handed over to you, you are my hole cards and dependence, I have a request for your rear army, try to conceal the march, find that the fewer of your people, the bigger the hole card, the safer we are. ”

Meng Xuan nodded and said solemnly: "Understood!" ”

The two carriages came to the school yard of the Zhichong Prefecture military camp and drove straight in the direction where Qin Zhen was, stopping almost a battle away from Qin Town.

The curtain of a carriage in front was lifted, Chao Chuanwu got down from the carriage, and then two middle-aged people walked down, these two people Qin Zhen also knew, they were Wang Shixian and Li Sheng, professor physicians of Weizhou Medical College; Two people also jumped out of the carriage behind, but it turned out to be Dong Feng and Niu Zishou, after the two jumped out of the carriage, they hurriedly walked behind Chaochuan Wu and the others.

"I've seen Guo Duwei, Dong Xiaowei, and Zhao Xiaowei!" Chaochuan Wu, Wang Shixian, and Li Sheng hugged their fists and saluted Guo Wei and others not far away.

After Guo Wei, Dong Cheng, and Zhao Feilong returned the salute, Chao Chuanwu smiled at Qin Zhen and Meng Xuan: "Doctor Wang and Doctor Li used to treat the injuries of the soldiers of this Zhichong Mansion, and they are very experienced in treating external injuries, and this time they followed you with the army. ”

This time to lead the team out, of course, the military physician is indispensable, Qin Zhen naturally found the Weizhou Physician Academy for the first time, for this matter Chao Man and Chao Chuan Wu naturally readily agreed, originally Chao Chuan Wu really wanted to be this military physician, but now he is the deputy director of the Physician Academy, and he can't get out of it at all.

"Doctor Wang and Doctor Li have worked hard, and we are fortunate to be accompanied by two doctors, and I thank the two doctors here on behalf of these two hundred Weizhou sergeants." Qin Zhen hugged his fists.

"Don't dare, don't dare, Captain Qin has tormented Wang!" Wang Shixian hurriedly waved his hand.

"We are also from Weizhou, and it is also an honor for us to be able to contribute to these sergeants who protect Weizhou, let alone the hard work!" Li Sheng arched his hand and said.

Chaochuan Wu pointed to Dong Feng and Niu Zishou behind him, and said to Qin Zhen: "Dong Feng and Niu Zishou, you know each other, the two of them are the two best students in our Physician Academy, this time they are the medicine boys and assistants of Doctor Wang and Doctor Li, aren't the two of them thinking about joining the army in the future, this time they will also let them follow the long insight, and at the same time feel the military life in advance." ”

"I've seen Captain Qin and Deputy Captain Meng!" Hearing Chaochuan Wu introduce himself, Dong Feng and Niu Zishou hurriedly stepped forward to greet Qin Zhen and Meng Xuan.

Qin Zhen nodded and smiled: "I will welcome the two of you in advance on behalf of the Weizhou Zhechong Mansion. ”

The two physicians were separated, Li Sheng took Dong Feng to follow Qin Zhen to the front army, and Wang Shixian took Niu Zishou to follow Meng Xuan to the rear army. Since the two doctors could not ride horses, they had to travel together in a carriage.

Two quarters of an hour had arrived, Qin Zhen said goodbye to Guo Wei, Dong Cheng, and Zhao Feilong, and set off with the first and fourth teams, while Meng Xuan, the second team, and the third team were still in the school field.

After Qin Zhen and his party traveled fifty miles south, they began to travel all the way east, and after leaving Weizhou and entering the boundary of Qinzhou, Qin Zhen asked Wang Zhu and Xue Yuan to each pick out five scouts to form several scout teams of ten people, with Yang Xiaoqi as the leader of the scout team, and searched and explored the way.

Because Qinzhen did not make a big splash this trip, it was very low-key when it met the city, and it did not encounter too many problems, the most was when it was going to the countryside and passing through the county, the local villagers suddenly saw so many heavily armed sergeants riding high-headed horses, which would inevitably cause panic among the locals.

Three days later, the team arrived in Qinzhou, and from a distance they could see the walls of Qinzhou, which were larger, taller and thicker than those of Weizhou.

At a place still five miles away from Qinzhou City, Qin Zhen ordered the army to stop and repair, and he and Xue Yuan changed into civilian clothes and prepared to visit Yang Qingmin, the governor of Qinzhou Zhichong Prefecture.

Coming to the city of Qinzhou and looking at the towering city walls of Qinzhou, Qin Zhen restrained the war horse under him, his eyes were a little confused.

Xue Yuan patted his horse and came to Qin Zhen's side, he knew that Qin Zhen must have remembered three years ago when he saw this city wall, but he did not say anything to comfort Qin Zhen, but quietly looked at Qin Zhou City with Qin Zhen, sometimes, wordless support is more powerful than verbal comfort.

After a long time, Mayor Qin took a breath, his blurry eyes became clear again, and he turned his head to Xue Yuan and smiled: "Let's go!" ”

When the two came to the city gate, Qin Zhen was surprised to find that there were not many people at the huge city gate, only a dozen people lined up, which seemed to be very orderly.

When they approached Qin Zhen, they found that when these people entered the city, they needed to pay five cents to the soldiers at the city gate before they could enter the city, Qin Zhen and Xue Yuan glanced at each other, and they both saw dumbness in each other's eyes.

It was Qin Zhen and Xue Yuan's turn, and the soldiers at the gate saw the two teenagers wearing coarse cloth robes but leading two horses, their eyebrows lowered, and they said impatiently: "The entrance fee is ten copper dollars per person." ”

Qin Zhen was about to pay money, although Qin Zhen knew that these soldiers were not paying for the city fee, and it was Chi Guoguo's extortion, but this was Qin Zhou, he was just a passer-by now, and he was powerless to change this phenomenon at all, and he had more important things to do, so Qin Zhen didn't want to make a fuss, but when he heard the soldier say that it cost ten yuan to enter the city, Qin Zhen stretched out his hand in his arms and frowned slightly: "Why?" ”

Hearing Qin Zhen's questioning, the soldier became even more impatient, and rolled his eyes: "If you want to enter the city, you will pay the money, and if you don't want to pay, you will get out, how can there be so many whys." ”

Xue Yuan reprimanded angrily: "Who gave you the right to collect money at the gate of the city, and also, why do others charge five yuan, and when we arrive, we have to charge ten yuan, isn't there a royal law in the huge Qinzhou?" ”

The soldier raised his eyes and looked at Qin Zhen and Xue Yuan, and sneered: "Hey, the kid has a big breath, I haven't touched this kind of thorn for a long time, tell you that the kid remembers, Lord Thorn Shi is the king of Qinzhou, and I am the one who implements the king's law, I have the final say on how much money I charge, which round will get you to talk nonsense." ”

Xue Yuan still wanted to step forward to theorize, Qin Zhen blocked Xue Yuan, shook his head slightly, as the saying goes, the king of Hades is good at seeing little ghosts, and it is useless to reason with this kind of soldier, Qin Zhen took out twenty copper coins and handed it to the soldier who collected the money: "This is the entrance fee for the two of us." ”

The soldier squinted at the twenty cents and shook his head proudly: "Not enough!" ”

Qin Zhen said coldly: "Didn't you just say that ten copper coins per person, why is it not enough?" ”

The soldier touched his nose disapprovingly, and said nonchalantly: "Yes, did I say this?" How come I don't remember? The soldier who received the money gestured to the soldiers around the city gates, and asked, "Did you hear me say that?" ”

"Nope!" The rest of the soldiers replied in unison, and looked at Qin Zhen and Xue Yuan with playful eyes.

"You see, they haven't heard me say this, you must have heard it wrong, what I just said was a hundred copper coins per person for entering the city." The soldier didn't smile.

Seeing that Qin Zhen was silent, the soldier squinted and sneered: "Although you are wearing poor clothes, these two horses are good, if you really can't come up with the money, you can also use the horses to offset it." ”

Qin Zhen forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a cold voice: "I am Qin Zhen, the captain of Weizhou Zhechong Mansion, and I am going to visit you Yang Duwei when I enter the city, I can ignore the previous conflict, and I can also accept the entry fee of Shiwen, but if you have to make an inch, don't blame me for being polite." ”

Hearing that Qin Zhen was the captain of Weizhou Zhichong Mansion, the soldier was obviously stunned, but when he saw what Qin Zhen and Xue Yuan were wearing, he turned his head and smiled: "Now any cat or dog dares to say what kind of bullshit captain he is, and yesterday there was a beggar who said that he was the captain of Weizhou Zhichong Mansion, and he wanted to go into the city to meet our Lord Assassin." ”

The soldiers around burst into laughter.

The soldiers seemed to be encouraged, and smiled at Qin Zhen and Xue Yuanyin: "If you want to enter the city, you need to pay five hundred copper coins per person, and if you don't have money, you will get out." ”

Qin Zhen grabbed Xue Yuan, who was about to burst out, and sneered: "Okay, we won't enter the city." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

When the soldiers saw that Qin Zhen and Xue Yuan were leaving, they burst into shouts: "People go, leave the horses behind!" ”

Qin Zhen turned around and said with a smile: "What did you say?" ”

Hearing Qin Zhen's question, the soldier's face was cloudy, and he suddenly shouted: "I suspect that these two people are party spies, come to my Qinzhou to spy on the military situation, and take it for me." ”
