Chapter 91: Tongguan
"Brother Zheng'er still understands me."
Qiao An took several sips of Sanle pulp, then raised his sleeve and wiped his mouth, and then said a word to Zhang Zheng.
There are no longer outsiders who call Shaolangjun like that, but affectionately call Brother Zheng'er.
It shows that the relationship between the two is really good.
"Hahahaha, I know hello, you take all these jars, I don't like to drink this thing.
But be careful, don't be found out by my father, or you'll be beaten. ”
Zhang Zheng pointed to the other jars on the table and said.
When I saw the old man, I suddenly felt very good.
"I'm afraid it's unlikely that I won't be discovered by my grandfather, my grandfather already knows that I will definitely come to see Brother Zheng'er after my rotation, and let me help you bring something."
Qiao An smacked her mouth and said with some regret.
Then he rummaged through the armor, took out a small wooden card and handed it to Zhang Zheng.
Zhang Zheng took the small wooden card, and there was only one plum blossom pattern on the wooden card, and there was no other inscription and text.
But as the saying goes, father and son are connected.
The moment he received the small wooden card, Zhang Zheng knew what it was for.
Zhang Zheng put the wooden card into his arms and put it together with the fish talisman that Li Chengqian gave him.
Since Zhang Gongjin has known for a long time, the youngest son will inevitably go to Jinyang.
How could he not arrange a backup for his youngest son in advance.
This is the benefit of having a backer, and that small wooden card should be a token to mobilize Zhang Gongjin's back hand in Jinyang.
It is of the same nature as the fish talisman given by Li Chengqian.
There are some things that don't need to be broken, and Zhang Zheng also knows that the power of the Guogong Mansion is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.
If the Guogong Mansion had only relied on my father's hundreds of guards to protect it, it would have been destroyed I don't know how many times.
Qiao Anhao is Zhang Gongjin's personal guard, and he can't leave the Chinese army's tent for too long.
After finishing the things arranged by Zhang Gongjin, I exchanged a few words with Zhang Zheng.
agreed not to get drunk after returning to Chang'an, so he held two jars in one hand and prepared to go back to be beaten with a stick.
The ban on drinking alcohol in the army is like farting for the old generals.
But for ordinary soldiers, it is an absolute heavenly rule.
However, Zhang Zheng guessed that according to his father's urine, Qiao Anhao would definitely not be able to keep these jars of spirits.
It's okay to use a few jars of liquor to get rid of a military stick, after all, Qiao An is fortunate to be here with Zhang Zheng, and he has almost drunk it.
After sending Qiao Anhao away, Zhang Zheng returned to the tent, and Chen Yu had already prepared hot water.
At home, there are maids who wash their clothes and feet, and Zhang Zheng can only do it by himself outside, which is also a helpless thing.
The conditions are here, let a rough man like Chen Yu wash his clothes and feet, Zhang Zheng can't accept it.
There is no such condition for taking a bath, Zhang Zheng soaked his feet for a while, then lay on the marching bed and fell asleep.
……
It was still dark, and without waiting for Chang Yan to shout, Zhang Zheng woke up early.
The main reason is that the sound outside is so noisy that Zhang Zheng can't sleep with his head covered with a quilt.
When I came out of the tent, it turned out that Zuo Xiaowei had already pulled out of the camp and was about to return to Chang'an.
Zuo Xiaowei is a serious three armies, the front army has already left the camp an hour ago, and the rear army is still as stable as Mount Tai.
Now it is Zhang Gongjin's Chinese army camp that is making noise.
Zhang Zheng looked at Li Chengqian's tent, and Li Chengqian also got up.
was yawning and looking at Zhang Zheng's tent with a confused expression.
The two of them cleaned up and washed up, and the team of more than 1,000 people was ready to go.
Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian did not go to Zhang Gongjin to bid farewell again, and Zhang Gongjin did not have this idea.
So, one group to the west, one group to the east, and so on.
Li Chengqian gave the order to go to Tongguan in one breath to make repairs, and the soldiers gladly accepted the order.
The distance from Huayin to Tongguan is only less than forty miles.
Converted to kilometers, that is, the distance of less than twenty kilometers.
With the whole army on horseback, it didn't take much time.
On the contrary, it was Li Chengqian's carriage, which slowed down the speed of the entire team.
Of course, the group is a Qincha team, not a march to fight, but there is no need to blindly pursue speed.
At noon, the group had already seen the tall city wall of Tongguan.
Tongguan, the earliest set in the Eastern Han Dynasty, was known as Taolinsai in ancient times.
In the middle of the pass, Hedong and Hebei, it is known as dangerous.
The gateway of Guanzhong has always been a place for soldiers to fight, and it is one of the world's famous Xiongguan.
When the pass came into view, a heavy feeling came to the face, and the mottled marks of knives and axes on the city wall.
It seems to tell everyone about the majesty of this majestic pass in the world, and the war and chaos that have been experienced.
Duan Heng played a guard of honor and held up the Huangluo umbrella.
The flag was blown violently by the wind.
At this time, the chief general guarding Tongguan was Qu Tushou, the son of the famous general Qu Tutong.
Qu Tutong, the compound surname Qu Tu, the word Tan Douba, Changli people, is the Xi people.
When Emperor Yang of the former Sui Dynasty toured the Jiangdu in the south, he awarded Doctor Zuo Guanglu, General Wei, and Chang'an to stay.
In the thirteenth year of the great cause, he stopped Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Guogong, from marching into the army, was defeated and captured, and was awarded the secretary of the military department and Jiang Guogong.
Follow the Qin King Li Shimin to pacify Xue Ju's father and son, Wang Shichong, and worship the Ministry of Works.
After the change of Xuanwu Gate, he went out of Luoyang.
In the second year of Zhenguan, the governor of Bailuo Prefecture and the doctor of Zuo Guanglu. He died in office at the age of seventy-two, and was given the title of Loyalty.
After Qu Tutong's death, his eldest son Qu Tushou attacked the Duke of Jiang Guo and was reappointed as the guard of Tongguan.
Qu Tushou saw that the prince's guard of honor had arrived, and ordered the door to be opened and closed, and he led his personal guards to come out to greet him as soon as possible.
"The last general, Qu Tushou, welcomes His Royal Highness the Prince."
Li Chengqian jumped out of the carriage, came to the front, and after helping the hero with his own hands, he said warmly:
"Jiang Guogong doesn't have to be polite, he is ordered by his father to patrol the sky on behalf of the emperor, and wants to cross the river from now on, and ask Jiang Guogong to make it convenient to help the soldiers under the command of Gu prepare boats to cross the river."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is polite, which is what it should mean.
The boats that cross the river will be prepared by the generals under their command. ”
Qu Tushou looks like he is in his forties, and his beard is also the standard for Tang military generals.
And because he is not in the capital all the year round, he is no longer familiar with today's court.
Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a gentle attitude, the panic in his heart couldn't help but feel a little less.
"This is Zhang Zheng, a man from Weinan County, the youngest son of Zou Guogong, and the deposed ambassador who inspected the second province of Hedong and Hebei this time."
Li Chengqian opened his mouth to introduce Qu Tushou.
Zhang Zheng, who was standing next to Li Chengqian, also bowed his hand to Qu Tushou in a timely manner: "Xiaguan Zhang Zheng, I have seen Jiang Guogong. ”
Qu Tushou couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in his eyes when he saw that Zhang Zheng, the deposed ambassador, was so young.
But he still returned the courtesy: "Don't dare, I've seen Zhang Xiannan." ”
Then he said to Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Zhang Xiannan, the last general has already closed the city tower and prepared a little wine.
He also invited His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Zhang Xiannan to move to the city tower to take a rest. When the ship is ready, the soldiers will come to the ceremony. ”
Li Chengqian glanced at Zhang Zheng and replied: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”
