Chapter 504: The Turmoil in the Western Regions (I)
After Xue Rengui left Bai Wenmo's place, he walked directly to the tent where Wu Chen was resting, and after waking Wu Chen up from his sleep, he asked urgently: "Old Wu, what is the origin of Bai Wenmo and that group of students?" Tell me about it. ”
"What's the matter?" Wu Chen, who was in a daze, was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a white face in a hurry: "You just got me up for this?" Do you know how long it's been since I've had a good night's sleep? ”
"Say it quickly, don't ink, beware of me getting a few people to stand outside your tent every day and blow the whistle." Xue Rengui didn't feel guilty about disturbing other people's rest at all, he was very familiar with Wu Chen, there was no need to care about these messy etiquette, if Wu Chen didn't say it, it was estimated that he would be really capable.
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you." Wu Chen rubbed his face a little frustratedly, sighed and said, "Do you remember the old bag at the beginning?" ”
"Who's Lao Bao?" Xue Rengui asked confusedly.
"Uh, I forgot, that time I went to Qingzhou to follow the second stunned, not you." Wu Chen smiled awkwardly: "Your Highness has set up a school for children in Qingzhou, you know, right?" ”
"Yes." Xue Rengui nodded, reacted instantly, and tried to ask, "These students are the students who graduated from the children's school?" ”
"What do you say? If you are a student of Guozijian, do you think Your Highness will send you here? Wu Chen sneered, and said with some disdain: "Those from the Guozijian are not students, they are all uncles, come to you, not to mention whether they have the courage or not, even if they are afraid that they will all be tired and become dogs before they get out of the customs." ”
"So the quality of this group of students is good, I just saw that all of them are in good spirits, and they are not tired." Xue Rengui nodded, recalling the state of the students when he just saw that group of students.
"Of course it's good, the children's school doesn't raise waste, these students don't have to go to school, they still have to farm and work when they go home, and even in the school, there are sports projects, and if they don't qualify, they can't graduate at all." Wu Chen briefly talked about the education method of his younger brother's school, and then asked meaningfully: "What, what do you think?" Do you want to deduct the next batch? ”
"If they can satisfy Xue, Lao Tzu will deduct them." Xue Rengui smiled and opened his mouth.
This is a temptation, if Wu Chen doesn't raise any objections, or if Wu Chen doesn't say that there are any special arrangements for the one in the palace, then he may really detain all of them.
"You can talk to Lao Bai about this, those students will graduate soon, His Royal Highness means to let them choose their own careers, and no more arrangements have been made, so Lao Bai should have a lot of say, after all, he must be the teacher of those students." While Wu Chen gave Xue Rengui a thorough explanation, he came up with an idea by the way.
"Cheng, with your words, it will be done, and tomorrow I will invite you to eat roast whole sheep." Xue Rengui slapped Wu Chen on the shoulder, got up and left, coming and going in a hurry, Wu Chen, who was watching, was stunned, and didn't respond for a long time, sighing that the military camp was really a magical thing.
I think Xue Rengui was such a polite person at the beginning, but now he can wake people up from sleep without changing his face, and he didn't even thank him after his questions were answered.
Oh no, he said he was going to have a whole roast lamb tomorrow.
However, in this shabby place in the Western Regions, as the most powerful horse thief, inviting someone to eat roasted whole sheep seems to be no different from inviting someone to drink saliva in the Central Plains, right? What did that guy say?
In the afternoon of the same day, Xue Rengui and his gang were busy counting the supplies, Wu Chen and his gang were busy resting, and they walked for more than a month after coming out of Yangguan, not to mention the wind and sun, and they also had to worry about the materials and equipment they carried, and they couldn't even sleep for a while.
Putting aside the busyness of the afternoon and evening, early the next morning, Xue Rengui gathered everyone together for a meeting to study the future schedule.
"Brigade Xue, I don't need to participate, right?" Wu Chen, who wanted to be lazy, stood at the door of the tent with a sad face and said reluctantly.
Xue Rengui pushed him on his shoulder and pushed him into the tent: "Anyway, you are not in a hurry to leave for a while, stay and listen, maybe we can find some loopholes that we haven't noticed." ”
As soon as Xue Rengui appeared, the voice of the guards immediately sounded in the tent: "Stand up!" ”
"Sit down!" Xue Rengui was in the main position, pressed down with both hands, and motioned for everyone to sit down: "The people sitting here basically know each other, in order to save time, Xue will not introduce you one by one, and when you want to speak for a while, just introduce yourself." ”
Without waiting for everyone to express their opinions, he continued: "The matter of the Western Turkic Yili Little Khan bringing 50,000 troops to attack us, everyone also knows that a certain decision to march into Gaochang in two days to fight a decisive battle with it, do you have any objections?" ”
"Boss!" A man with Tuyuhun characteristics stood up from his seat, and first said in a somewhat vague Tang official dialect: "Everyone, so-and-so, Tuoba Mumi, Tuyuhun people, now leading 3,000 troops, the captain of the first cavalry team. ”
After Tuoba Mumi finished introducing himself, Xue Rengui said in a deep voice: "Say, what is your problem!" ”
"Chief, we are horse thieves, why do we have to fight to the death with the Western Turks?"
Tuoba Mumi was originally the famous king of Tuyuhun, and he led thousands of households to naturalize in the former Sui Dynasty, but was rejected by the former Sui because he thought that Tuyuhun was not tolerated in the country, so he wandered around the Western Regions, one was to avoid the pursuit of Tuyuhun in the country, and the other was to find a suitable place to live.
But just a year ago, for some special reasons, this guy's whereabouts were leaked, and in desperation, he led people into a canyon, and that canyon was the temporary resting place of the 'Fangs' brigade.
Under the negotiation, Tuoba Mumi chose to surrender, and from then on, he took his subordinates under the command of Xue Rengui's 'fangs'. Of course, there are still a lot of messy processes, and I won't repeat them for the sake of space.
"Ahem, let me say a few words" The thin Bai Wenmo stood up, and after a light cough, he said: "Old man, Bai Wenmo, I was led to the position of military advisor by the leader last night. ”
"Mr. Bai, please speak!" Tuoba Mumi said very politely!
He is a rough man, but not a fool, the equipment and materials that the 'Fangs' brigade has determined to come, accurate and complete information, and the military appearance and military discipline in the daily march all mean that it is a complete army with logistical support.
And in the Western Regions, an army full of Han people and well-equipped enough to arm soldiers to the teeth can appear in the Western Regions, if it has nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that ghosts will not believe it.
Therefore, Bai Wenmo, who suddenly appeared, was very sensible and kept his due politeness.
