Chapter 263: Xiao Rui is about to cry
In the animal husbandry camp outside Luoyang City, Xiao Rui has been traveling in casual clothes these days, and he has been a 'student' by Da Si Nong's side. No one knows his true identity, in fact, even Hou Junji has to listen to his transfer.
As for the promised 10,000 troops, they were trained by Su Lie. Training? No, that's not training, this army is different from the others, there is no daily equestrian riding and archery training, almost all the work is to raise and train horses. In the eyes of the other soldiers, this is a group of full grooms.
There are even rumors that General Hou is crazy. Do you think that sending 10,000 more people to be horsemen and taking care of one horse day and night can prompt these war horses to produce more and immediately increase the number of war horses?
As for Su Lie, the third-grade general, he couldn't raise his head in the barracks anymore, and he got the nickname General Bi Ma Wen. Everyone thinks he's a horse breeder. Su Lie didn't care about this, only he knew Xiao Rui's real killer feature.
That is the saddle and stirrups. If these two artifacts are created, they will be equipped for 10,000 people. Do you still practice riding and archery every day? In three or five days, a strong cavalry can be trained by assault.
So listening to Hou Ye's arrangement is right, I only need my soldiers to have a good relationship with the war horse, and when they go to the battlefield in the future, the war horse is the closest comrade-in-arms of every soldier. As for what others think now? Unimportant! If they can't understand it, it's best to hide it.
As for the unpleasant words of the groom, you should turn your grief and anger into strength, and when you come to the battlefield in the future and prove yourself, this is morale!
"Yo, General Sun is here? How? I never thought training was so easy, right? Xiao Rui joked about Su Lie who was found.
Su Lie didn't bother to defend himself, and even the Hou Ye called me General Bima Wensun? What else? Fight? I couldn't beat it before, but now I don't dare to fight. Let me Su Lie bully a helpless civil official, I can't afford to lose this person.
"What's wrong with Bi Ma Wen? Sun Monkey will be the Sun Dasheng who can make trouble in the Heavenly Palace in the future, and one day our group of horsemen will be able to prove themselves on the battlefield. Su Lie patted his chest and said confidently.
"Yes, yes, the future Sun Dasheng, why do you have time to find me?" Xiao Rui motioned for the other party to take a seat.
Su Lie was not polite, sat down by himself, picked up the teacup and drank tea, "Or for that matter, can you transfer an extra batch of craftsmen?" Or hand over the work to the old arsenal outside Chang'an City, so that it is secretly produced in Luoyang, which is too slow. ”
Xiao Rui sighed and said: "Saddles and stirrups are easy to be imitated and learned once they are in the world. So don't show the slightest bit of a horse's feet. This must be a surprise force that can change the tide of battle. The reason why it is handed over to you, and not to others, is because you have the talent of a general and are absolutely calm. If you change anyone, you can't stand the loneliness. ”
"Don't say anything else, just being ridiculed for Bi Ma Wen, no one in the Manchu Dynasty can stand it."
Su Lie smiled bitterly and said, "Master Hou, you are mocking the cowardice of the general." ”
"Quite the opposite!" Xiao Rui said seriously, "General Su, don't say anything about civil officials, among the military generals, you are the only one who does not strive for fame and profit, and does not take these false names too seriously, this is what I admire most about you......"
Before he finished speaking, a figure rushed into the camp tent, and Su Lie subconsciously pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.
"Hou Ye, Hou Ye! You have to go out of the mountain in person, the old slave is not doing well, and the prince is lost again. ”
It was the first time that Lao Gao, the waiter, was so out of shape, and returned to Luoyang in embarrassment, and cried when he found Xiao Rui holding the other party's thighs.
Xiao Rui picked up Lao Gao in surprise, "This, what's going on?" What the hell happened and how did you get so messed up? Lao Gao, didn't you go to Qinghe County in person? Not long ago, he wrote back to me saying that he had found the trace of Cheng Qian, why has it been so long? ”
Li Junxian gave the teacup to Lao Gao, who drank tea in a big gulp while telling what had happened.
After listening, all the people present were silent, the fate of this prince is too bumpy, right? Jinxiulou was a turtle slave, and he was about to be bullied to death. Finally escaped, and was exiled to Qinghe Cui as a kitchen handyman, after a few quiet days, he was forced to flee to Youzhou, and drilled in the mountains and forests for half a month, and it was easy to arrive, and now he was taken captive by foreign scouts......
Xiao Rui was about to cry, "I've been away from home for two months, I just wanted to hide, and I'll go back when the queen returns to the palace." But because of this kid, I don't dare to go back to my home......"
"This time I packed all my luggage, and now he has been abducted by human traffickers again, sincerely, I will be killed!"
"My hard-working son, my father can't watch you be born with his own eyes, poor Xiangcheng, you must be safe and sound......"
Forehead......
Li Junxian pushed Xiao Rui, "Childe, let's hurry up and find a way to save people." If you really let the crown prince go to a foreign country, it will be troublesome. ”
Xiao Rui came back to his senses, and was so angry that he scolded the case: "They dare? Surrounded by small barbarian countries, which one dares to touch a finger of my Tang prince? Lao Tzu wiped them out. ”
Su Liexin said, Hou Ye is domineering.
The chamberlain Lao Gao reminded: "I'm not afraid of the small countries of Siyi, I'm afraid that after they are caught, they will sell people to the Turkic Jieli." In the last war, we exchanged a lot of benefits for the eldest prince. If the crown prince falls into the hands of Jieli, Jieli is afraid that he will retaliate with a tooth for a tooth and blackmail us fiercely. ”
I'm ......
Xiao Rui's momentum stopped, looked at Lao Gao resentfully, and said in his heart, can't you let me pretend to be a good one? poke at my weakness, and I can't help it.
"That's it, I can't go back home. Fifth brother, pack up, I have to go to Youzhou in person. Cheng Qian, this kid, is really uneasy......"
scolded the prince on his lips, but he was scolding himself in his heart. I'm really idle, what bad idea did I have for the emperor? If it weren't for my suggestion to exile the prince to go out to practice, there would be no ...... today
One word - cheap mouth! Deserve.
A few days later, Emperor Li Er received the news that he had not eaten for two days because he was worried. This time, he hid it from the queen to the death, otherwise let the queen know that the prince really had an accident, not to mention the harem, and the entire court would be shaken. The queen's family is not a vegetarian either.
Half a month ago, I got the news that the prince was studying and studying in the Cui family in Qinghe, and the queen was relieved a lot and didn't ask anymore. Emperor Li Er has only been on his birthday for a few days.
Now it's a good thing, but within a month, people have been thrown into another country......
However, paper can't contain fire after all. Moreover, those Goguryeo traffickers, with the intention of inviting merit, kidnapped the prince of the Tang Dynasty and sent it to the Goguryeo court. thinks it's a credit, but it's actually their talisman.
The emperor and prime minister of Goguryeo are not stupid, our Goguryeo is nominally a big country of the same level as the Central Plains court, and the Sui fought three major wars before that year, regardless of victory or defeat, and established the status of a great power.
But in fact, Goguryeo completely survived, and it was really going to be in a hurry, and the Tang Dynasty was coming to attack, and Goguryeo was by no means an opponent. In front of the Tang Dynasty, our strength is terrible.
You are a small country and kidnapped the prince of a big country? What do you want to do? Looking for death? Why don't you send it back? Shed a hair you try?
But when the meat came to his mouth, he just admitted it and sent it back, which damaged the prestige of Goguryeo.
So the Goguryeo monarchs and ministers summed it up, and there was a disaster. Kill the group of businessmen who know about their country. Then he sent the meat ticket to the Turks and gave it directly to Jieli, thinking that Jieli would like this generous gift very much. At that time, Goguryeo will still be able to share a lot of benefits.
Just when Xiao Rui and the others had just arrived in Youzhou and met with the Metropolitan Governor Chai Shao, there was a news from the northern grasslands: Jieli Khan invited the Tang Prince Grassland as a guest!
Xiao Rui slumped in his chair, and muttered, "It's over, it's too late." Get ready for war. A big war is inevitable. ”
