On the school field behind the Right Xiao Health Office, the two brothers Tian Shengong and Tian Shenyu were sitting under the eaves, looking at the snow in a daze.

This is the gap between their archery practice.

"I don't think we're going to be able to get out of the sixteen." Tian Shenyu opened his mouth and said: "This Chang'an City is a place where seniority is discussed, how can we countrymen have the opportunity to take the lead?" ”

Tian Shengong said: "Then what do you say?" ”

"Go to the border army!" Tian Shenyu's eyes were yearning, and even his voice was much louder, and said: "The border army is the place to get ahead, I heard that the military salary in the feudal town is more than three times higher, and the Khitans are tens of thousands of prisoners at a time, and the soldiers themselves are sold for money, so happy?!" ”

Tian Shengong shook his head and said, "Pin your head to the waistband of your trousers, it's nothing good." ”

"Brother."

"Erlang, before my mother leaves, I want me to take care of you." Tian Shengong said: "Go to the border army to exchange your life for the future, you have to have a good one, I went below to see my mother, what do you say?" ”

Tian Shenyu said with a grin: "With the ability of our brothers, what can we do?" ”

Tian Shengong should not be, sullen.

Tian Shenyu stabbed him again and said, "That day, those two in the western suburbs, the veterans of Longyou, right?" You see, they have married two mothers-in-law and maidservants, and they live in such a big house. But in terms of ability, are they comparable to our brothers? ”

"No matter how big the ability is, isn't it abandoned?"

"I mean, we can do great things when we go to the border army." Tian Shenyu said: "I dream of going to the border army, and they all say that the border army is only a Long March athlete, and the Chang'an guards are all goods." ”

Tian Shengong slapped his younger brother in the head with his backhand, and said, "I just want to save Yu Lu and tell you about your family, I don't care if you are a healthy child or not." ”

"Brother, look at your appearance."

While speaking, someone shouted here: "Tian Shengong, someone is looking for it!" ”

Tian Shengong turned his head to look, scratched his head a little confused and said to himself, "Who can look for me?" I don't know anyone in Chang'an. ”

The two brothers picked up their bows and arrows and walked to the edge of the school field, where they saw a young man standing at the gate with his maidservant.

"Why do I think he's familiar?" Tian Shenyu muttered.

"The people of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion." Tian Shengong whispered: "Mo is not the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

"Oh, I remember."

When the two brothers approached, Xue Bai took out the token of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and asked with a smile: "Does the strong man still remember me?" ”

"Remember, remember." Tian Shengong hurriedly smiled and said, "You can't be called a strong man." ”

"Lang Jun still remembers me?" Tian Shenyu said: "I almost caught up with the carriage when I drove the horse, oh, I am my brother's younger brother, Shenyu, Tian Shenyu, Lang Jun just call me Tian Er." ”

Xue Bai remembered this and said, "In this way, if it weren't for your brothers, you really wouldn't be able to get the thief." Can you get a reward? ”

"What's the reward?" Tian Shenyu's mouth was fast, and he had already complained.

Tian Shengong hurriedly smiled: "It's all for the imperial court, it should be, it should be." ”

Xue Bai knew that Li Linfu was doing things like this, at least he hadn't seen anyone Li Linfu reward in these days, whether it was Ji Wen or Yang Zhao, if he didn't do well, he would be scolded at every turn, but if he did well, it didn't do much good.

He had the heart to ask for a reward for the Tian family brothers in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, but at this time, he was patient not to say much, so as not to disappoint the anti-sect people in case it was not done properly.

At this time, Xue Bai only said that he was seconded to the Tian family brothers to do some things, and the Tian family brothers were very enthusiastic and happily agreed.

"Okay, I can do things with Lang Jun, what if it's an opportunity?"

"It's not an opportunity." Tian Shengong hurriedly rounded the field and said, "It's good to have a long insight." ”

~~

"The old soldier we got that day is named Jiang Mao, and he also has a brother named Jiang Hai, who must be the one who escaped by car. The brothers were recruited by Longyou in the 26th year of Kaiyuan, and Chang'an returned to Chang'an in the first year of Tianbao. I checked their military records and found a few veterans of Longyou who returned to Chang'an in the same year as them, so please come with me to visit. ”

"Okay."

Two days later, Xue Bai took the Tian brothers to visit some Longyou veterans in Chang'an City, but found nothing.

The only gain was that he asked for credit for the Tian brothers in front of Li Linfu, and asked them for a team leader, a deputy team leader and some rewards for them in the right Xiaowei.

The reason is that if Jiang Hai is really found, or the Longyou soldiers raised by the prince, such a person with real skills is needed to capture it.

Xue Bai used a stupid method, and every day he was going through all the files registered by Jiang Mao and Jiang Hai in the Longyou Army.

Ji Wen was dismissive of this method, but Xue Bai thought that the torture might be false news, but the clues between the files could not be erased.

“……”

"The name of this person we visit today is Guo Boda, known as Guo Da, Longyou Lintao Army, sword and shield hand. It seems that he has no contact with Jiang Mao, but in the twenty-sixth, twenty-seventh, and twenty-ninth years of Kaiyuan, he participated in the same war with Jiang Mao and Jiang Hai brothers, and returned to his hometown in the same year, so they may know each other. ”

The horse's hooves clattered, walked through the streets of Chang'an City, and finally stopped at Feng'anfang in the south of Chang'an County.

Xue Bai asked someone according to the address on the soldier book, and knocked on the knocker of Guo Boda's house.

After a while, the door was opened, but a girl of seven or eight years old was standing there with a boy of five or six years old, looking up and asking, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Is Guo Da there?"

"Grandpa!" The little girl turned around and shouted.

After waiting for a while, a middle-aged man limped out of the backyard with a cane, looked at Xue Bai, and asked, "What is the matter with Lang Jun?" ”

Xue Bai immediately showed a smile and said, "My name is Xue Bai, I want to inquire about some old things in the Longyou Army, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

Guo Boda was stunned for a moment, pointed to the lobby, and said, "Let's sit inside...... Go and pour a glass of water for the guests. ”

"You're welcome."

Xue Bai took out a wine bag and handed it to Guo Boda.

Guo Boda sniffed it, snorted, and said with a smile: "Wine, Lang Jun has a heart." ”

One of his sons and daughters came out with bowls in their hands, and they set them on the table and poured wine.

Brother Tian Shengong grinned, and he was not polite, and drank it when he picked it up.

Xue Bai didn't drink it because the amount of alcohol was not good. Kyauknu wouldn't drink this kind of commoner stuff, and stood behind him with a cold face.

"What does Xiao Langjun want to inquire? Just ask. Guo Boda took a bowl of wine, patted his knees, and said, "Longyou is just that bit of a." ”

"I don't know if you know Jiang Mao and Jiang Hai brothers?"

"I don't recognize it." Guo Boda shook his head.

Xue Bai said: "They are the Heyuan Army, and they are stationed one hundred and twenty miles west of Shanzhou City. ”

Guo Boda said: "I am the Lintao Army, and my station is in Shanzhou City. ”

"I checked your resume, in the twenty-sixth year of Kaiyuan, you met the enemy in the west of Qinghai."

"Twenty-six years of Kaiyuan." Guo Boda muttered softly, nodded, and said proudly: "That year, Tubo entered the Kou in a big way, and we followed Cui Jieshuai from Liangzhou South to the Tubo realm for more than 2,000 miles, met with thieves, broke it, and beheaded more than 2,000 people!" It was my first big battle in the army, two heads...... Got two thief heads. ”

"Good man!"

Tian Shenyu couldn't help but raise the bowl and toast Guo Boda.

Xue Bai said: "Also in March of this year, the brothers Jiang Mao and Jiang Hai, under the command of Du Hope, the governor of Shanzhou, followed Du Hope through the hole of Qilian Mountain and captured the Tubo New Town in the south of Qilian Mountain. ”

"I also went to this battle, when I accompanied General Wang to bypass Qilian Mountain to support Du Dudu!" Guo Boda patted his chest and said, "In this way, it is very likely that I have seen the Jiang brothers you mentioned." ”

In July of the same year, Du hoped to seize the Tubo River Bridge and build Yanquan City, the Tibetan army of 30,000 people came to attack, Wang Zhongsi led the troops to charge, invincible, killed hundreds of people, the Tibetan army was shaken, Du hoped to take the opportunity to launch a general attack, and the Tibetan army was defeated. This battle, they are there, and you are too. ”

"Surname Jiang?"

Guo Boda's eyes showed a look of memory, but he still couldn't remember it for a while.

Xue Bai said: "In the twenty-seventh year of Kaiyuan, Tubo attacked the Baishui Army and the Anren Army, and the Lintao Army and the Heyuan Army all sent troops to support and defeated Tubo. ”

"There were too many people in that battle, I can't remember that I saw the Jiang brothers of the Heyuan Army."

"In the twenty-ninth year of Kaiyuan, the first battle of Stone Castle City?"

In this battle, Xue Bai could find very little resume, only knowing that the coach at that time was Gai Jiayun, and the Lintao army where the Jiang brothers were located failed to arrive in time, and Shibao City was lost.

Guo Boda shook his head, his tone was a little low, and said, "That battle was too chaotic, I don't remember." ”

He didn't really like to fight in Stone Castle.

Xue Bai was not reluctant, and asked: "Then in the first year of Tianbao, the king of the Heyuan army rarely picked out the son of Tubo Zampu in front of the battle. ”

"See!"

At the mention of this battle, Guo Boda was excited, and suddenly put down the wine bowl in his hand, and the wine was spilled all over his body.

"I saw with my own eyes in this battle, the son of Tubo Zampu was brave and strong, riding a high-headed horse, and went out to call for battle. General Wang came out of the battle, rode a white horse, held a spear, rushed to the front, and picked the enemy general off the horse with one shot, so not majestic! ”

When the Tian brothers heard this, they couldn't help but be fascinated and forgot to drink the wine.

Xue Bai said: "The Jiang brothers returned to Chang'an with General Wang in that year to offer prisoners. ”

"I also suffered a leg injury that year and returned to Chang'an...... Yes. ”

Guo Boda suddenly remembered who Jiang Mao and Jiang Hai were.

His eyes widened and he muttered, "Under the command of General Heyuan Junwang, the Jiang brothers? ”

Xue Bai asked, "Remembered?" ”

Guo Boda said: "As soon as I said that I would return to Chang'an with General Wang to offer prisoners, I remembered that I had seen the two brothers!" They were all tall and strong, and the elder brother was a good hand with arrows, with pockmarks on his face, and his hands were longer than his knees. My brother is a sword and shield bearer, and he has been stabbed in the lip and looks like he is grinning all the time, right? I said, I always thought their surname was Wang. ”

"It's supposed to be them."

"I don't think Lang Jun is a mortal, I asked about them, but I want to recruit them?"

Xue Bai nodded.

Guo Boda was overjoyed and said: "This Chang'an officialdom is snobbish, and he doesn't look at his ability, he only looks at the way." Lang Jun can appreciate our Longyou military man, and I also feel that it is glorious. ”

Xue Bai said: "I just heard their names and knew their military exploits, but I didn't know where to find them." ”

"They are fierce soldiers admired by everyone in the army, and I can't make friends, but my team leader Lao Wu has a good relationship with them."

"Dare to ask where this old martial artist is?"

"On an errand in Jin Wuwei, he was a street patrol envoy ......"

~~

Xue Bai walked out of Guo Boda's house, raised his head, and looked at the sky.

"Damn, the border army only came out of the characters." Tian Shenyu came out and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The Long March athlete is a man who can really kill the enemy, tsk, there are so many heads in the tent." ”

"yes."

Xue Bai responded, sighed, and exhaled a breath of white gas.

In this investigation, he only turned over a few pawns of the Longyou Army, and he had already turned out the battles, and turned out Du Hope, Wang Zhongsi, Wang Rare and other generals.

If you want to continue the investigation, how many people will have to be involved?

He didn't know.

But Datang's power struggle and dumping have already begun, and it will not change for him.

"Let's go, find Lao Wu."
