Volume 2 Flowers follow the willows, the clouds are light and the wind is light! Chapter 164: A Dangerous but Safe Position
Liu Yier is much calmer than Wang Shi, because Tang Ning has not yet told her that he is going to war. But her worries are as uncontrollable as a flood.
As long as Tang Ning is at home, she will repeatedly tell Tang Ning that he must pay attention to safety when he goes out. She also wanted her senior brother to accompany Tang Ning, but Tang Ning refused.
Zhao Ren's whereabouts are unknown now, and no one knows if he is in Runzhou. In case after he left, he came to attack his family, and there was no one in the house, Tang Ning was really not at ease.
Liu Yier packed up Tang Ning's clothes, picked out more than a dozen good-looking ones, and put them in the package. In addition to spring and summer clothes, she even prepared winter clothes, which is not inconsiderate.
Then Tang Ning went to see Wang Zhi again, this old brother's current state is no different from a dead man. As soon as he saw Tang Ning, his eyes glowed, and he rushed up to take Tang Ning's hand, and he stopped talking and was silent for a long time.
On the contrary, Tang Ning looked very open, and smiled and comforted: "Isn't it just to go to a battle, with your and me's three-legged cat kung fu, people will definitely not let us go to the front line." ”
Wang Zhi said miserably: "I said Brother Tang, your heart is really big." Brother, let me tell you the truth, on this battlefield, there is no saying that the front line is not the front line.
You also know that I am the queen of the gate, although I am now down, but after all, there are some words that have been passed down from generation to generation.
What's more, I was only a lieutenant general before, and now I have been promoted to a full general, can this be my good?
Brother Tang, with your ability to strategize, there will definitely be no danger. The elder brother only asks you for one thing, that is, if I die in battle, please bring a message to my ancestor and say that her grandson is not filial......"
"Stop, stop, stop......" Tang Ning was sweating profusely when he heard this, how could this become more and more mysterious.
Before anyone saw it, they had already begun to explain what was going on.
I despised Wang Zhilai in my heart, and I thought that I seemed to be doing the same thing a few days ago, so I inevitably blushed a little.
But Downing soon found a reason to excuse himself.
Wang Zhi, as a general in the Zhenjiang Army, also led troops to fight. As a weak scholar who is powerless, fear is inevitable. He is a general, and he is a little too scared to speak.
Thinking of this, Tang Ning's disdain for Wang Zhi spontaneously arose.
Although they despise it, they are still a pair of difficult brothers. The two of them felt it and drank bitter wine.
After three rounds of drinking, Wang Zhi was a little upset, and he said sadly: "Originally, Lao Tzu was going to marry his mother-in-law in a few days, but now he hasn't seen anything like his mother-in-law, so he is going to fight."
Alas! What about the good Jiangdong Jiangnan war? Knowing this, Lao Tzu might as well go to the Western Army from the beginning! ”
"You're going to get a wife?"
"Yes, I'm twenty years old this year, and the last time I went back to celebrate the birthday of my ancestor, I was taught a lesson by her ears. In the end, he pointed out a marriage to me on the spot, and I heard that the daughter of the Han family was fifteen years old and looked good.
I was still thinking about how to go through the clouds and rain with her after marriage, but this time I was brought with me.
Why is my life so miserable! ”
"Isn't it your cook?" Tang Ning was a little surprised, after all, Wang Zhi had launched an extremely fierce offensive against his family's cook a long time ago, and now it seemed that his efforts had not paid off.
"Brother Tang, a cook
How can you be my wife? Even though I'm a member of the family, I'm not reduced to the point of marrying a slave and going home to be the main house.
The cook lady in my family has already been taken down by me, and after I marry the lady of the Han family, I will include her in the room as a concubine. Otherwise, the lady of the Han family may be angry, I don't want to have a discordant marriage as soon as I come up. ”
Tang Ning had nothing to say, so he could only pick a thumbs up.
The two brothers drank for a while, and Tang Ning felt a little drunk, so he got up and said goodbye.
In the blink of an eye, fifteen days passed.
Tang Ning didn't sleep all night the night before, Li Zi didn't know where he learned about Tang Ning's leaving, and last night he touched Tang Ning's bed while it was dark.
Tang Ning, who opened his eyes dimly, was like seeing a ghost, and this little plum didn't speak, just waiting for a pair of big eyes that were shining in the middle of the night to look at him.
Then he began to shed tears aggrievedly.
Tang Ning coaxed the girl all night, and was just about to go to bed, but the rooster crowed.
I wanted to ignore it, but I was a little sleepy just now, but Fang La ran over and knocked on the door, saying that there was an official at the door of the house.
Tang Ning then remembered that today was the day of departure, so he smiled bitterly, quickly changed his clothes, hurriedly washed his face, didn't bother to brush his teeth, and ran to the front hall to see the official.
As soon as he saw the official errand, Tang Ning was stunned. This official errand is none other than Sun He.
The old people were naturally overjoyed to see each other, Tang Ning wanted to leave Sun He to have a sip of tea, but Sun He said: "Supervising the envoy, let's set off first."
Time was very tight, and Lord Zhou asked everyone to assemble before the end of the day, and if there was any delay, military law would deal with it. ”
When Tang Ning heard this, he hurriedly said: "Then let's set off, let's talk as we go." ”
Sun He nodded, and the two of them hurriedly walked towards the outside of the courtyard.
Passing by the senior brother who was napping at the door with his arms in his arms, Tang Ning arched his hand and said, "Senior brother, I'm leaving!" ”
Senior Brother opened his eyes, looked at Tang Ning for a while, and finally nodded and said, "Pay attention to safety." ”
Then he continued to close his eyes and take a nap, it is estimated that he is very depressed, Liu Yi'er will not send him extra silver at every turn like Tang Ning.
When he went out to see two horses, Downing stood in front of one of the gray horses and was stunned.
Sun He jumped on one of the horses and said, "Supervise the envoy, hurry up." ”
Tang Ning rubbed his hands and said shyly: "I can't ride a horse......"
As soon as these words came out, even the horse rolled its eyes, you don't know how to ride, what are you doing standing by and watching me for so long?
Helpless, Sun He had no choice but to hug Tang Ning onto his horse, and then shook the reins, and the horse galloped out. Sun He whistled again, and the gray horse behind him followed.
Not long after running, Tang Ning felt that his stomach was turning upside down, very uncomfortable, and he felt like vomiting.
You can't be a faint horse, right? Tang Ning thought to himself, that would be too bad.
Motion sickness can still be spit in the car, if the horse is sick, the picture is too beautiful, Tang Ning dare not think about it.
Suddenly remembering what Sun He called him just now, Tang Ning asked out loud: "Brother Sun, what do you mean by calling me the superintendent just now?" ”
Sun He said with a smile: "Naturally, it's literal, when you go to the army to report, your position is to supervise the transportation envoy." ”
When Tang Ning heard this, he was very excited, and he said: "This official sounds so big!" My master is a transport envoy, and I heard that there are other festival envoys, and it seems that the transport envoy is not far behind! ”
Sun He laughed and said: "It does sound very loud, but in fact it is the abbreviation of 'Supervising the History of Cao Yun Ling'." In terms of official position, in fact, he is just a military civilian official from the ninth grade. ”
“……”
Hearing this, Tang Ning's desire to vomit became even stronger.
The scenery on both sides of the road reverses rapidly, and the horses are running faster than the carriages. After a while, they had already arrived in the north of the city, although there was still some way to go, but Sun He saw that Tang Ning was pale and haggard, so he had to stop his horse, and the two rested under a tree for a while.
I looked at the sky, it was not yet bright, and there was still a little time.
Tang Ning took a deep breath and asked without words: "Brother Sun, do you know who we are going to fight this time?"
I've been thinking about it all the time at home, and I think it would be nice if I went to suppress the bandits. ”
Sun He shook his head and smiled: "Why do you need to send troops from the southeast region of the Yangtze River to suppress the bandits?" This time, we went to meet the Tangut people.
But you don't have to worry too much, the Zhenjiang army only dispatched 1,000 people as a team to escort grain and grass. In fact, your task is to escort the grain and grass, and then go to the Western Army to help those people and do odd jobs.
There is no need to worry about going to the front line, even if you want, the generals of the Western Army will not agree. What's more, now the northwest region is Zhang Qi (Yinjie) as the envoy.
This person has the ability, but his eyes are above the top, even if he chooses the dead soldiers who go to die, he will not choose these soldiers in the southeast of the river who walk crookedly.
So you don't have to worry at all, Liu Gongshi and Master Zhou are so serious before, they just want to make you serious. ”
Tang Ning nodded and smiled bitterly: "I thought of this, I said that if the war reaches the point where a stinky fish and rotten shrimp like me have to go to the front line, it will be really a crisis." ”
Sun He laughed and said: "So this time, your main task is to escort grain and grass, and the secondary task is to observe and learn. Lord Zhou arranged you in this position, naturally he has his intentions, generally speaking, if you are the head of the Governor Envoy, you are qualified to enter the Beijing Face Saint. ”
"And that kind of statement?"
"Of course, after all, supervising the transportation of grain and grass is a chore. Since ancient times, the soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass, and the team escorting the grain and grass has always been the main target of the enemy......"
"You guys talk nonsense, what a set!" Tang Ning shouted angrily: "I said it was not dangerous just now, but now it has become the primary target of the enemy!"
You say every day that I have two mouths, and I can say both positive and negative, I think you are! ”
Sun He shrugged his shoulders and said: "This is also a matter of no choice, just wait until you get to Huanzhou, no matter how strong the Xixia people are, they will not run through the layers of defense of the border army and kill you." ”
Tang Ning sneered in his heart, and said in his heart that in another ten or twenty years, Zhao Ji, who had the same idea, was arrested by the Jin people for his whole family.
"Alright, it's almost time to rest. Envoy of the Governor, it's time to get up and hurry, otherwise, Lord Zhou will punish the two of us for delaying the military plane. ”
"I'm still a little sick to my stomach......"
"You bear with it, it's not too late to vomit when you get to the place."
