Chapter 248: Five Division Commanders
"Many families have sent their young children to give gifts, and you can just talk to them about it." Ding Qi's eyes were full of encouragement,
"Huh?" Ding Kui's face fell, didn't he want to arrest him for work.
"Ah what, I'm busy here, do you still want to sneak away to enjoy the happiness?"
Sure enough, Ding Kui's face was slightly disobedient, and Ding Qi turned his face.
The people of the Jiang family spoil you, is it possible that I still have to get used to you? Ding Qi was extremely unbalanced in his heart.
"The child does not dare, but everything is at your command. Ding Kui pinched his nose and confessed, although he was rarely beaten when he was young, he knew that this father's temper was very short-tempered, and he would never use his brain when he could do it.
It turned out that Ding Kun and the chief housekeeper of Jiang Mansion, that is, Jiang Shunchuan's father, Jiang Nai, hid in the treasury of Anguo Mansion and drank it, and by the way, he could supervise the treasury to collect gifts.
"Old Nai, there's something I've wanted to ask you face to face. Ding Kun put down the empty bowl in his hand.
"What's the matter? If you have something to ask, Shunchuan has come back a few times, and you won't let him say a word. Jiang Nai patted open the mud seal of a jar of wine and poured it full for Ding Kun.
"It's about Okawa, you said that you are a good samurai, how can you let your son run to learn bows and arrows?"
"Hey, let's forget it ourselves, who doesn't want their son to live longer. It's safer to be an archer than a samurai, he doesn't have to rush to the front, it's good to hide behind and release cold arrows.
Think about it, are there still few dangers that we have encountered, and if we neglect a little, our lives may be gone, how many times has Lao Qian encountered danger? Seeing that the situation is not right, he is the first to slip away. "Obviously, Jiang Nai and Qian Bu are also acquaintances.
"That's right, I remembered when you said that, every time I retreated, Lao Qian walked in front, and every time I cut him off. He also said that the archers can clear the way to remove the trap and ensure the safety of our retreat.
You have taken great pains for your son, and this reason is a lesson full of blood and tears. It happened that the young master had an accident, I called Lao Qian back, and with his guidance, Dachuan has made a lot of progress, and now he has married a good daughter-in-law, you can rest assured. "Ding Kun is happy to pick on Qian Bu.
"Then thank you for your care, otherwise how could Shunchuan be so easy to advance to the wind archer, I really have to thank Lao Qian for talking about this, but it's a pity that he didn't come this time. This bowl of wine is considered my salute to him. Jiang Nai tilted his head and drank all the wine in the bowl.
"Yo yo yo, if it weren't for the smell of wine, it wouldn't be easy to find you two rats. "There are two more people in the storeroom.
"Hahaha, it's the four seas. Well, Jiang Nan, what made you come here to find us?" Seeing the appearance of these two people, Jiang Nai knew that something had happened.
Quan Sihai and Jiang Nan are both personal guards, one is the commander and the other is the squadron leader, and when many outsiders come to ask for a meeting, they will not easily leave their master.
"It was Master Hou who told me to find Brother Kun, the matter is not too urgent, and it will not affect your drinking. Brother Kun, the young master estimates that someone will reveal the news of our arrival in Jiang Mansion to the Eighth Legion, and according to Lao Dong's temper, they will definitely not be able to bear it, and they will come to Hou Ye to ask what kind of charter it will be in the future.
Zhenjing City is full of Shaodian Dan's eyes and ears, at this time it is inconvenient for Hou Ye to meet them, I want to ask you to go out of the city, stop them on the official road, and persuade them to return to the camp and wait with peace of mind. You also know those people, they were arrogant when the boss was there, and they really couldn't find anyone to hold them down except you. "Quan Sihai is really good at conveying military orders, and he explains things clearly in a few words.
"Well, if you spread the news to the Eighth Legion, and then hurry to the capital, they will not arrive until early tomorrow morning at the earliest, so there is really no hurry.
The kid they jumped the most was Dong Ba, now it should be the cultivation of the fearless knight in the later stage, no one has restrained him for so many years, and he must have forgotten who the old man is. Ding Kun combed through the information and already knew what he was going to do.
"Sihai, I won't invite you to drink when you're in attendance, and you can go back after the matter is over. After a while, I will ask the second master for a military order, and Xiao Kun will take him to the division to become famous, so that they have steps to go down, and this matter will definitely not be delayed. Jiang Nai also quickly found the key to the matter.
The problem that made Ding Qi and Quan Sihai feel tricky was in the hands of the two housekeepers, Ding Kun and Jiang Nai, and it was not as important as drinking, which shows how much wind these two old gingers have experienced and have rich experience in dealing with problems.
After a few paragraphs of the take-off and landing of the letter eagle, the news of the arrival of the father and son of the protector Marquis at the Anguo Mansion reached the barracks of the Eighth Army in the evening.
Dong Ba, commander of the 71st Division, Hua Mo, commander of the 72nd Division, Luo Tao, commander of the 77th Division, Shu Li, commander of the 78th Division, and Qiao Meng, commander of the 80th Division, came to the big tent of the Chinese army together.
"Master Hou can appear in Zhenjing City, which proves that the king is not intolerant of the existence of the Ding family, and the rumor that the old man was killed by the king is self-defeating. If we don't go to see Hou Ye, will it make Hou Ye feel that we have forgotten him?" Dong Ba, who took the lead, took the lead and said.
"The people of the 75th Division saw Xiao Hou Ye last time, and I heard that Lao Quan was following Hou Ye, we can't miss this opportunity to ask Hou Ye to find a way to come back and preside over the overall situation. Luo Tao heard his subordinates talk about Fan Yuzhen leading the team to Pingzhong County.
Only Hua Mo was calmer and said, "Why did they tell us the news? With so many people crammed in over the years, isn't the purpose obvious, if Hou Ye can really come back, isn't their hard work in vain?"
"Things can't be seen like this, since the king can let the Hou Ye enter and exit the capital freely, he won't worry about him coming to the legion's station, which means that it is possible to let the Ding family take charge of the legion again.
Once Hou Ye is back in charge of the legion, what will happen to those who have already been transferred to the legion? At this time, it is normal to win us over and have a good relationship with us. Luo Tao is more optimistic.
"Assuming that the king does not want the Ding family to return to the legion, will we not see the influence of the Hou Ye? Could it be that the king will be worried that we will rebel? Judging from the current situation, the power we have in the legion is far greater than that of those families, and if they harbor evil intentions, they will not be afraid that we will turn their faces? This matter is going to make a fuss, except for the people they brought themselves, who in the legion will listen to them again. "Dong's view of problems is measured by strength.
Shu Li and Qiao Meng, who had not spoken, glanced at each other, and Qiao Meng said: "Who said that we are going to see the Protector Marquis? ”
"Yes, yes, yes, that's it. Luo Tao's eyes lit up, "We don't need to go directly under the banner of looking for Hou Ye, it's still Qiao Meng's brain is flexible, and he thinks more about excuses to avoid possible traps." ”
At this time, Shu Li slowly opened his mouth, and he said: "The 78th Division has important military affairs, and this officer has no right to make a choice, and he needs to report to the acting corps commander, and it is not all the way with you." ”
"Just the two of you are cunning. Dong Ba's words made Shu Li and Qiao Meng cry and laugh, he was the oldest in age and seniority, and there was no reason to refute him, "Is it better to celebrate An Guogong's promotion, or to report military affairs to Lord Jiang Xi, since we are all going to the capital, it is reasonable for us to go together." Time was limited, so we went back to prepare and set off, trying to reach the capital when the gates opened. ”
Hua Mo was still skeptical, but he couldn't handle four of them, so he had to go back to the camp to prepare.
From the Eighth Army to Zhenjing, there was only one official road leading to the north gate, and the road to the other gates was not suitable for war horses. Dong Ba and the others want to rush to Zhenjing City, and they will not take other roads.
In the early morning of October 13, five pure-blooded thunder horses carrying five people appeared on the official road outside the north gate of Zhenjing.
Dong Ba and the other five division commanders didn't want to alarm too many people, so they didn't bring any personal guards with them, and only rushed to the capital on the road.
The autumn in Zhenjing is very dry, and you can see the castle in the distance, the largest city in the Shaodian Kingdom, the outer city wall is built according to the standards of a military fortress, and the lowest point is more than 20 meters.
"Okay, everyone, hurry up, the gates are open. Dong Meng whipped his horsewhip in the air, allowing his mount to pick up speed.
At this moment, on the official road two hundred meters away from them, a figure suddenly floated out and stood firmly in the middle of the road.
The five division commanders immediately became alert when they saw someone on the road.
"Hey, I'm not dazzled, it seems to be Uncle Kun. The youngest, Jomon, gasped.
Since Ding Kun left the army to work as a housekeeper in the Ding Mansion, there are not many opportunities for the later generals to see him, but it will not be a good thing to see him every time, so the slightly younger division commanders like Shu Li and Qiao Meng are even more afraid when they see Ding Kun.
"Phew", "Phew", "Phew", ......
The five people all saw the people in the middle of the road clearly, and they all lowered the speed of the horses they had just lifted, and when they reached seven or eight meters in front of Ding Kun, they all turned over and dismounted.
"Brother Kun. Dong Ba, Hua Mo, and Luo Tao shouted.
"Uncle Kun. "Shu Li and Qiao Meng are much more respectful.
"Hehe, it's been a night's journey, come, go to the side of the road to rest and rest. Ding Kun beckoned to the five.
Although Dong Ba and the others were in a hurry to enter the city, Hou Ye's housekeeper was right in front of them, so they had to patiently follow Ding Kun to the side of the road.
"Brother Kun, this little road is not tiring us, if you don't have any instructions, there is no need to rest, it is better for us to enter the city as soon as possible to meet Master Hou. Dong Ba has known Ding Kun for the longest time, and he can be regarded as able to speak, and the others all looked at Ding Kun with hopeful eyes.
"I can understand your feelings, and my lord knows it, but you have been in the barracks for too long and don't know the current situation. Today is An Guogong's promotion ceremony, and the lord means that it is inconvenient to meet you for the time being, and it is not appropriate.
If the master thinks it is appropriate to see you, even if he does not take the initiative to go to the legion, he will send someone to inform you, how can he let you know through the mouth of others?" Ding Kun's words poured on the heads of the five division commanders like a basin of cold water.
(Cold and cough, feeling unwell.) )
