A small music official, all of a sudden, ran from Zuojiaofang to Honglu Temple, and served as the deputy envoy for reception, which is already very unusual, and now Zheng Peng has also gone to the Western Regions to be a supervisor, although it is a deputy supervisor, it is enough to surprise people.

Guo Ketang is a descendant of Guo Yuanzhen, the secretary of the former Ministry of War, who is very clear about the setting of the military department, and also knows the meaning of the supervision of the army, like some supervision of the army, and the ability to be arbitrary, if necessary, without the approval of the imperial court, directly mobilize the army and start a war.

I don't know how high Zheng Peng's status is, but the appearance of this position seems to be for Zheng Peng, how big a face does it take to get this kind of special treatment, I really doubt whether Zheng Peng is a royal clan in the people.

Guo Ziyi gritted his teeth and said: "The wolf ambition of Da Shi and Tubo is revealed, third brother, how did you think of going to the Western Regions?" The battlefield is very dangerous, the soldiers of Tubo and Dashi are well-trained and not easy to deal with, and your trip is very dangerous. ”

"Big brother is right" Kuro nodded and said: "The Tubo army, the equipment is poor, but they are not afraid of death, and they are proud of dying in battle; After the annexation of Persia and the countries in the river, the strength of the Great Food has increased greatly, the weapons they made of iron are very sharp, and the strength does not need to be underestimated. ”

The Grolu tribe has had traffic with Tubo and Dashi, and sometimes there will be friction due to some trivial things, Ku Luo knows them very well, he thought that Zheng Peng thought it was an advantage or a disadvantage, and hurriedly reminded him.

Even Lan Duo also stared at Zheng Peng with a curious expression: "Zheng Gongzi, don't be a good music official, and go to the Western Regions to be a prisoner, didn't you offend anyone?" ”

Zheng Peng took the line of Colliers, and got Li Longji's weight, it can be said that the future is bright, with the Three Treasures, the "money" journey is also very good, and there is a future and not bad money, there is really no need to go to the battlefield to take risks.

Could it be that Zheng Peng offended someone and deliberately sent such an arduous and dangerous task to Zheng Peng.

Zheng Peng said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, please rest assured, I didn't offend anyone, my purpose is to value harmony, make money with harmony, and don't make any enemies, and this time I am a supervising army, not a big soldier, not only do I not have to fight, Gao Gonggong said, in addition to bringing my own personal guard, there will be a team of people dedicated to protect my safety." ”

"And a team of people dedicated to protection? Zheng Gongzi, your shelf is really not small. Lando said in disbelief.

"Of course, don't look at who it is" Zheng Peng said proudly: "A certain reliance is a real ability, how to say it, I am a good piece of iron in Datang, good iron is used on the blade, where you need it." ”

When everyone heard this, they all gave Zheng Peng a roll of the eyes.

There were so many people, only Guo Ziyi lowered his head and didn't speak, looking at his face, as if he was hesitating about something.

Zheng Peng noticed Guo Ziyi's abnormality, patted Guo Ziyi's shoulder, and said with a loud laugh: "Why, eldest brother doesn't speak, is he reluctant to let me go?" ”

Guo Ziyi waved his hand and said: "The man is ambitious in all directions, I have always thought that galloping on the battlefield is the most heroic performance of the man, the horse leather shroud is the best destination for the man, the third brother is to contribute to the country, and the eldest brother will definitely support you." ”

Speaking of this, Guo Ziyi suddenly said with a proud face: "Third brother, I have decided to join your personal guard and rush to the Western Regions with you to contribute to the country and earn a meritorious service for myself." ”

As soon as the words fell, the audience was shocked, and Zheng Peng looked at Guo Ziyi in disbelief.

Didn't this guy drink a few more drinks and don't know what he said.

It's not like ah, Guo Ziyi is famous for her massiveness, this time there are girls, and everyone drinks a little modestly, but Guo Ziyi's performance is normal, her eyes are not sloppy, and she is still as bright as ever.

Zheng Peng said in surprise: "Big brother, didn't you drink too much and joke with me?" ”

"No, I'm not drunk, I'm very sober, third brother, you also know that when I'm down to business, I never joke."

"No, eldest brother, the martial arts are about to start, aren't you and the second brother going to participate in the martial arts together?"

Guo Ziyi said thoughtfully: "Participating in the martial arts is to contribute to the country, go to the battlefield, and also contribute to the country. ”

"Oh, how so?" Zheng Peng's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked.

Guo Ziyi is a strange person with both civil and military skills, he is a general, he is a phase, he is the kind of hero who turns the tide, benevolence, talent, loyalty and emotional intelligence are the top kind, history has a very high evaluation of him, Zheng Peng wants to know what people like this kind of coaxing people think about this war.

Let's see if his talents are born or cultivated.

After pondering for a while, Guo Ziyi analyzed: "Tubo is the old enemy of the Tang Dynasty, and the relationship with the Tang Dynasty has been good and bad, fighting for hundreds of years, in fact, in so many years of war, Tubo has not suffered losses, you can see its strength, it is the lion of the plateau; Big food is not simple, although there is an element of luck, but it can annex Persia and dominate the river, its strength should not be underestimated, it is a hungry wolf with high morale. ”

"Two countries with such strength want to make a move against a small country with a population of only three or four hundred thousand, not only to pull in the remnants of the Western Turks, but also to establish Arida as the king, as for it? As a matter of fact, the land is not fertile enough and the products are not rich enough, even if it is swallowed up, it will not be able to satisfy the appetite of Tibet or big food, and it is clear that it is making a big fuss. ”

"Obviously, they want to test Datang's attitude, if Datang doesn't care, they will gradually annex Khanna, and then wait for the opportunity to expand; If Datang sends troops, they will first look at Datang's strength, and if they can fight, they will fight, if they can't beat it, that Ah Lida will be their scapegoat. ”

Speaking of this, Guo Ziyi said with an affirmative face: "There is another important factor, that is, it is about to enter winter, and winter is not conducive to combat, so I concluded that this war will not last, and there is still more than half a year before the start of the martial arts, so it is too late to accompany the third brother on a trip." ”

It's amazing, there is no information, just rely on the notices posted by the imperial court and the news that comes out, you can guess the whole thing, and you really deserve to be a famous general in the future.

Zheng Peng couldn't help but ask: "There are no absolutes in everything, if the war is stalemate, what if the time drags on for a long time?" ”

"That shows that the situation is serious, the imperial court will definitely send a large army, and then the whole country will be busy, presumably the martial arts will not be held smoothly, it will definitely be postponed, rather than waiting in Chang'an, it is better to go to the Western Regions to find opportunities, the battlefield is the best training ground, maybe you are lucky and make a great contribution, and you can soar without participating in the martial arts."

"That's right" Guo Ziyi added: "Even during the war, there is no hurry to hold a military attack as usual, I am a private guard, I can leave at any time, and then I can rush back to Chang'an in a few days, what are you afraid of?" ”

When you become a soldier, you are a deserter if you leave casually, but when you are a private guard, you are different, you don't register to enter the combat sequence, you can leave whenever you want, and you are really thoughtful.

Zheng Peng was impressed, but said with some hesitation: "Big brother, you have to think about this matter carefully, you also said that the battlefield is changing rapidly, and no one knows when there is danger, so you have to discuss these with your family, and you really can't afford to ask your eldest brother to be a private guard." ”

"No, at this moment, if you don't go to the battlefield but your father scolds you, don't say anything if you can't afford it, we are sworn brothers, regardless of each other, what is it to suffer a little grievance for Datang." Guo Ziyi said with a righteous face.

I just wanted to persuade Guo Ziyi again, but I didn't expect Kuro to say loudly: "Big brother is right, okay, the three of us brothers advance and retreat together, third brother, the position of the private guard, leave one for me." ”

"Second brother, no, big brother is messing around, what are you coaxing?" Zheng Peng said with a headache.

Kuro said with a serious face: "Third brother, this is not a coax, the eldest brother said very reasonably, the three of us brothers should advance and retreat together, if there is something to take care of, then what brother do you worship?" ”

Without waiting for Zheng Peng to refute, Kuro continued: "In the final analysis, there is also a bit of selfishness in this matter, as you know, my Glolu clan is not far from Pakhana, so I am afraid that someone will take advantage of the fire to rob and harm my family and clansmen, so I will take the opportunity to go back and protect them." ”
