Chapter 174: Wind Spirit General Geng Lin
In the north of Baichun City, the Junx level has suddenly become lively in the past few days. The Wind Spirit Legion arrived here one after another, setting up camp on the west side of the checkpoint, preparing to wait until the follow-up troops arrived, and then advance further west.
Xing Xuan's team arrived here on the second day of the Wind Spirit's camp, and according to the Wind Spirit's itinerary, they would stay here for about two or three days. Xing Xuan had known about this for a long time, and he already had a plan in his heart, ready to take advantage of the time to go back to Pingsang Village in the past few days. This may not be able to catch up with the departure time of the army, but he can take two days off and chase the team west alone.
Xing Xuan had already had such a plan, he wanted to find a soldier who lived in Baichun in the army, hoping that this person could find a more reliable friend from Baichun City, and send his parents back to Quanhua Town, Tianling Spring City, because he still had to follow the team, and there was no time to send them back.
His reliable friend Ai Xin finally helped him find such a person the day before the troops left, and the other party also agreed to Xing Xuan's request, but naturally he had to pay some expenses.
After everything was ready, Xing Xuan packed up the affairs of the army outside Jonkers Pass, and went to ask for leave from the commander. Although this kind of thing is not a big deal, after all, he has just joined the wind spirit and has no merits, and now he is going to the front line, whether he can get approval or not, he really has no bottom in his heart.
Xing Xuan's direct boss was the big man Wu Chang who conveyed the housing information to him at the beginning. This man's temper is not very good, and if he is safe and quiet on weekdays, he treats his men well, but if anyone makes a mistake, then he is a stern lesson, and he has used a soldier before.
Xing Xuan came to the tent where this person was and called him out alone, with a respectful attitude, "Chief Wu, I have something I want to discuss with you. ”
As soon as the tall Wu Chang saw Xing Xuan's appearance, he knew that he had something to ask for himself, "How about Xing Xuan, it won't be any trouble." It's the first time we've been here, and now it's an emergency, so we can't hold back at a critical time!"
Xing Xuan hurriedly laughed for a while, "Yes, yes, it's not a big deal, it's just that I went out from home to Lushen Island, and then came to Fengling, and I have been here for a long time, and I haven't been back." Now that we are in Baichun, not far from my hometown of Dhahran, I would like to take this opportunity to go home and have a look. I wonder if Captain Wu can make it convenient for me to take two days off?"
When Wu Chang heard this, his brows immediately furrowed, "Xing Xuan, we are going to the front line to fight, and the time is already urgent, how can you ask for leave to go home at such a time? In just two or three days, once the team is fully assembled, it will immediately go west to confront the main force of the demon clan, can you catch it back?"
Xing Xuan hurriedly explained, "Captain Wu, I know that time is tight now, I won't be delayed for too long, use the teleportation array to go, it will only take three or four days at most, and I can come back." If I had already left by the time I returned, I would have pursued it westward alone, and would have returned to my army before confronting the enemy. ”
Wu Chang waved his hand again and refused, "No, if you really miss the right thing, you and I can't afford it." I think it's still like this, and when the two armies have confronted each other for a period of time and the battle situation has eased up a little, we will talk about this matter. ”
When Xing Xuan was about to speak again, he was interrupted by Wu Chang directly raising his hand, "Okay, there is no need to mention this matter again, you can go back quickly." War can break out at any time, lead your team and prepare for war. ”
After Wu Chang finished speaking, he turned to leave, Xing Xuan looked at his distant figure, and scolded in his heart. If you can't pass this level, your previous preparations will be in vain, and talking about this matter when the war situation is relaxed is mostly an excuse to prevaricate. Even if it's not an excuse, I don't know how long I'll have to wait that day.
Xing Xuan was very unhappy in his heart, and he didn't have the heart to return to his tent, just walked in the camp with his head down. At the entrance of the camp in the east, there was a steady stream of teams entering the camp through the checkpoints, and Xing Xuan was idle, so he stared at the direction of the camp gate in a daze. Coincidentally, it didn't take long for him to see Aixin's figure among the people who had just entered the camp.
Xing Xuan and Ai Xin belonged to the same two arrays in the same group, so the two of them didn't have a long time between arriving here. Seeing Ai Xin enter the camp, Xing Xuan happened to complain to someone else, so he followed his team.
After Aixin's team disbanded, the two of them met together. Xing Xuan came up and went straight to the point, "The Baichun soldier you helped me find a few days ago is probably not needed. Today, I went to ask for leave from Chief Wu, but he rejected him, and there was no room for redemption. After saying that, he let out a long sigh.
Ai Xin looked thoughtful, "It depends on whether you persist or not." If you can't do it, you can go to the captain at the next level, and if you can't do it, you can find the general, and anyone who is bigger than him will be able to speak. ”
Xing Xuan was taken aback, "This ...... This is not very good, this matter is not a matter of urgency, and it is against military regulations to ask for orders from a higher level. ”
"It's a small thing for someone else, but it's not for you. The sooner you go back to your hometown and take your parents out, the sooner they will be safe. Ai Xin seemed to be egging Xing Xuan on, regardless of whether he was right or wrong to do so.
"Makes sense, it's really not a small thing for me. Xing Xuan thought about it carefully and felt that this still didn't work, "But if they don't approve it, won't I not only have to go home, but also get a military disciplinary punishment?"
"It just depends on what you think!" Aisin said, turning his head to look at the east entrance of the camp, and there was silence between the two.
Ai Xin looked at the team that had entered the camp, as if he had seen someone from it, "Xing Xuan, maybe you can take the risk and go to her to give it a try." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the camp, Xing Xuan also looked there when he heard this, and saw a woman wearing armor, riding on a war horse, and entering the camp after a team. This person, Xing Xuan and Ai Xin, are not strangers, they have met once on Lushen Island.
"Geng Lin, General Geng!" Xing Xuan recognized this person at a glance.
Geng Lin's son Xi Pengqing died on Lushen Island for no reason, and Geng Lin also rushed to Lushen from Yueping City in order to find out the enemy to avenge his son. After that, Fang Wei became a scapegoat and died on Yeluan Island, and she returned to Yueping from Lushen. A few days later, the Wind Spirit Legion was reorganized, Geng Lin had nothing to love in Yue Ping's life, and he also knew that Xi Pengqing's death was because of the instigation of the demon clan, so he applied to join the Wind Spirit, and after a series of checks, he became a general in the Wind Spirit Legion, which happened to be the capital group where Xing Xuan and Ai Xin were.
Xing Xuan stared at Geng Lin for a while, a little scared in his heart, "Isn't it too dangerous to find the capital there directly." And it's not like I haven't seen it on Lushen Island at the beginning, this Geng Lin doesn't have a good temper, if you look for her......"
Seeing Xing Xuan like this, he would definitely not go to Geng Lin, Ai Xin continued to persuade on the side, "Won't you think of a way?" Geng Lin has a bad temper, but now it is not as good as before, and she does not dare to be too presumptuous in the army. Also, don't forget that you and her son are good friends, so you have to give some face. ”
This time, Xing Xuan seemed to understand a little, Ai Xin seemed to mean that he would first have a good relationship with Geng Lin as Xi Pengqing's friend, and then do business. Although this is also a method, it cannot guarantee success, and Xing Xuan hesitated for a while.
"Hesitating, procrastinating, this is not like a person who does big things. Aisin snorted, left the sentence and turned away.
His departure really gave Xing Xuan a lot of courage, and he made up his mind and was ready to give it a try. After all, it is related to the safety of their parents, if something happens to them, they will be as loveless as that Geng Lin.
Geng Lin had just entered the barracks at this time, and was heading towards his tent that had already been prepared. Xing Xuan hurriedly chased after her, trotting all the way to her, blocking her way.
Geng Lin was startled by the young man who suddenly appeared in front of him, but then regained his composure and asked, "Which battalion sergeant are you, why are you blocking my way?" ”
Xing Xuan hurriedly showed a courteous smile on his face, and replied respectfully, "General Geng, your subordinate is just a small head of your regiment. There is nothing else to do to block the general's way today, but I have heard the name of the general for a long time, and I have never had the opportunity to meet, so I came forward today. ”
Hearing Xing Xuan say this, Geng Lin felt that he seemed to want to be almost ordinary, maybe he wanted to ask for himself, "Even if you are a person in my capital, then you don't have to be polite." Now that we've seen each other, if there's anything to do, just go to the captain of the Captain of the Woods to which you belong, and if it's okay, go down and rest on your own. So saying, he drove his horse on.
"Actually, this is not the first time I have met you today, I have met the general before. Xing Xuan didn't mean to leave, and walked backwards in front of Geng Lin's horse, "That time was when I was on Lushen Island, you shouldn't have seen me that time." ”
Xing Xuan's second half of the sentence still made Geng Lin a little interested, "Oh, so you are a disciple from Lushen Island." ”
"Yes, yes, I practiced on Lushen Island for a few months, and then I joined the Wind Spirit. Lu Shen has a lot of friends among me, among them Peng Qing is one, we have a good relationship, I also heard about you from him, so I know you. ”
Xing Xuan mentioned Xi Pengqing, Geng Lin's face changed obviously, and with an inexplicable force in his hand, the war horse under his crotch also stopped.
Xing Xuan saw Geng Lin's face change, and his heart tightened at the same time. He hurriedly picked up a nice tone and continued, "General Geng, Peng Qing often mentioned you to me before, saying that you are a very good person, and I wanted him to take me to see you at the beginning! It's a pity that he doesn't know what's going on, something like that happened in Lu Shen, although I saw you that time, but I didn't have the face to talk to you. I was a friend, but I couldn't help him at the most critical moment, and I felt very guilty. ”
Xing Xuan's set of words is obviously something he learned from Ai Xin on weekdays, but now that he says it, he thinks it is indeed very effective. Although Geng Lin's face has changed, it can be seen that she is also trying her best to control it. And when Xing Xuan finished saying this, she regained her composure.
"Boy, what's your name?" she asked Xing Xuan.
"His subordinate Xing Xuan, although his ability is average, he is willing to follow General Geng for Brother Pengqing. Saying that, Xing Xuan clasped his fists at Geng Lin and saluted.
There is no proof of Xi Pengqing's death, and Geng Lin doesn't know if this Xing Xuan is his good friend, but since the other party said so, they must have known each other before.
"That's right, boy, I remember you. If you are extraordinary, can take the lead on the battlefield in the future, and have outstanding military achievements, I will definitely recommend you for promotion, but not yet. Geng Lin listened to Xing Xuan's words, and thought in her heart that he was using the relationship with Xi Pengqing to seek a military position from herself, of course she couldn't agree to this, although for a position like Xing Xuan, she also had the power to transfer and appoint, but with just two words from him, how could she casually answer him......
