The General Is As Urgent As Law

After winning the battle, the soldiers can relax openly and aboveboard, but the generals can't do the same.For generals, the real meaning of war is not whether they win the current war, but what this victory can bring to the country and what to do next.

Xue Ziqin never drank too much. Every time he won a battle, he would have a few drinks as a celebration. As for how the soldiers under him went to the carnival, he didn't care about it.

Xue Ziqin didn't leave the camp for several days, Min Qiu and Guo Linchong came in from time to time to report the situation to him, everything was as usual.

"What does the imperial court say?" Xue Ziqin asked slowly while drinking tea and looking at the military book.Guo Linchong was sent to Yanzhou by him after the war, and he came back not long ago.At this time, he was sitting next to Xue Ziqin, but he poured tea himself, drank it, moistened his throat, and said: "I didn't say anything, the general was transferred back to Xiangcheng to wait for an interview, but it took three or four days I haven't even seen the Holy One."

"Arrangement." Xue Ziqin looked away from the book of war and landed on Guo Linchong's face, "The city of Hanzhou has also been defeated. Could it be that the imperial court doesn't want it and plans to return it to Zhao?"

"There are some things that the general may say are inappropriate..." Guo Linchong said cautiously.

Xue Ziqin narrowed his eyes slightly: "Since when did you start playing with me? Say what you want, don't act like a woman."

People who march and fight do not necessarily know something about court affairs, and vice versa.

Although Xue Ziqin has been invincible and invincible in recent years, and has a great reputation, he is a person who has no knowledge of government affairs.Guo Linchong knew a thing or two about these things. Now that they captured Hanzhou, the imperial court neither issued a decree to reward the whole army, nor arranged for officials to take over Hanzhou City. Among them, there may be a big problem.

"The general has always been favored, but this time he is not summoned when he enters the court. Everyone in the court and the public knows about Hanzhou's affairs. The general's contribution is indispensable, and it is the icing on the cake for the general's status," Guo Linchong said, a little flustered, He quietly raised his eyes to look at Xue Ziqin's face, and seeing that Xue Ziqin's face didn't change, he turned his gaze back to the teacup in his hand, and continued, "I'm afraid Wei Yuanting isn't playing tricks."

"What do you mean?" Xue Ziqin asked, "What the hell can he do? The fact that the city of Hanzhou was taken down, isn't it considered a meritorious service, but a mistake instead? The imperial court sent Lao Tzu to Yanhan Valley, just waiting for Lao Tzu to occupy Hanzhou ?"

"It's not that the general doesn't know about the establishment of the crown prince. The general is on the side of the third prince, and that old dog Wei Yuanting belongs to the queen. If Hanzhou is defeated by the general in this way, the third prince's hopes will be even greater in the open and in the dark. I'm afraid that Wei Yuanting and the queen will play tricks in the middle, as for what kind of ghost..." Guo Linchong paused.

This pause made Xue Ziqin anxious, and asked quickly, "What the hell?"

"The last general doesn't know..." Guo Linchong said.

Xue Ziqin took the military book in his hand and hit Guo Linchong on the head: "What's the point of selling blindly!"

Just as he was talking, Min Qiu opened the curtain and came in.

"General."

"Well, how is the investigation going?" Xue Ziqin took back the military book, put it aside, and asked.

Guo Linchong quickly waved at Min Qiu: "I haven't seen you for a few days, come here."

Min Qiu nodded, stepped forward and sat down: "When did you come back?"

"Just now." Said Guo Linchong poured a cup of tea for Min Qiu.

Xue Ziqin had no objection to the relaxed attitude of the two of them.The three of them have always been like this, they should be superiors and subordinates, so they have to follow the rules; since there is no one else, it doesn't matter if they relax.After all, Xue Ziqin never looked at these vain things. He only looked at strength, whether he could do things, and whether he could use them.

"I've checked everything the general asked me to do." Min Qiu turned to report the situation to Xue Ziqin, "No one from the barracks went out in those two days, if so, only Vice-General Guo and me."

Guo Linchong quickly waved his hand: "It's not me, General, you know me well..."

Xue Ziqin was amused by him, and waved his hand: "I know it's not you. I don't doubt the employment, and I don't need the suspect. Besides, I didn't explain the plan to you two in detail. Just imagine the situation is nothing more than two, one is meticulous When they learned that I was leaving the camp, they contacted immediately, neither Min Qiu nor I were in the camp, and the rear was empty, so it was indeed a good time; second, work carefully, among the 29 people."

His expression suddenly became serious, looked at Min Qiu and the two of them, and didn't continue talking.

Min Qiu frowned and thought for a while: "If it's the fifteen recruits, it's easy to investigate. But if it's a veteran, the matter may be..."

Guo Linchong heard the words, and immediately refuted: "Impossible, I went out to pay the salary more than a month ago, and the recruits have not yet arrived. If there is really a meticulous work among the veterans, wouldn't it be better to start at that time? Lian Jin dared to come when the general is away, Then why don't you dare to go head-to-head with the general? Taking advantage of our lack of food and pay and the emptiness in the rear, if we attack, as long as we delay, we will not be able to support the hard fight, isn't it a great opportunity?"

Xue Ziqin nodded, and said, "Yes, I think so too. Besides, I led the troops directly into the city that night. If the fine work was caught in the middle, it would be as easy as pie to report."

Hearing this, both Guo Min and Guo Min were silent, and Xue Ziqin went on to say, "Lian Jin doesn't have such a brain. Whether the recruits can be reused is uncertain. That plan was made on the spur of the moment. I'm afraid there is someone behind Lian Jin. People give pointers."

After listening for a while, and thinking for a while, Min Qiu said slowly: "There are 15 recruits, I'm afraid it's easy to check."

"Then go and check, but don't rush for a while, after all, now we have occupied Hanzhou, and you two have worked hard," Xue Ziqin said, feeling guilty of greed, "If you want to eat fish, you still want to eat Game?"

Guo Linchong laughed immediately: "I want to eat wild game!"

Min Qiu looked at Xue Ziqin, feeling a little ominous, and said, "I don't care."

Xue Ziqin smiled: "

Well, let's go hunting tomorrow, Min Qiu, you take someone to catch fish, this Hanzhou city is surrounded by water on three sides, I don't think the taste of the fish will be bad. "

"... General, I don't want to eat." Min Qiu didn't want to take on the job, so he quickly refused.

Xue Ziqin had already expected that he would say this, so he shamelessly ordered: "I let you catch it, but I didn't let you eat it. If you don't eat it, you won't eat it. Anyway, I want to eat it."

The next day.

Xue Ziqin found the fifteen recruits before, and planned to take them out hunting with Guo Linchong. Except for the seriously injured, everyone else followed.A dozen people stood in front of Xue Ziqin's big tent, waiting for Xue Ziqin to speak.Jiang Ye and Jia Dajia were also among them, but it was obvious that Jiang Ye was worried and didn't know how to speak.

After waiting for a long time, Xue Ziqin came out of the tent. He took a look, but found that Wei Lin was not there, so he started talking to Jiang Ye out of the blue.

"Is Wei Lin still lying down?" Xue Ziqin walked up to Jiang Ye. Jiang was not like before. Instead, he became respectful to Xue Ziqin. He bowed slightly, saluted Xue Ziqin, and said, "General, Wei Lin Lin was stabbed in the back and was unable to move for a short time."

Everyone was called out, and they didn't know why, but they thought Xue Ziqin had another action to make.

The people who chatted with Jiang Ye that day were also among them. Jiang Ye noticed him as soon as he came, but this time he didn't say hello to Jiang Ye, he was only busy chatting with others in a low voice.

"Don't be so respectful, aren't you quite unconvinced?" Xue Ziqin said with a smile.

Jiang also lowered his head and didn't answer, but said what was on his mind: "General, I want to take care of Wei Lin."

Xue Ziqin's smile suddenly became mocking: "Oh, a big man, do you still need someone to take care of you? Just lie down for a few days."

"The general allowed me to say hello to the military doctor."

Xue Ziqin gave him a serious look, and finally waved his hand: "Go."

The archery skills of this group of recruits were all taught by Xue Ziqin himself. They can't be regarded as flawless, but they are still passable. Hunting should be fine, but they don't know how to ride horses.Xue Ziqin asked, "Can you ride a horse?"

"Yes!" Everyone replied in unison.

"Okay, then wait." Xue Ziqin sat down in front of the tent and stopped talking.

At first, everyone dared not show their arrogance, but then the little soldier who had chatted with Jiang Ye cautiously and somewhat roguely spoke to Xue Ziqin: "General, do we...have a secret mission here?"

Xue Ziqin glanced at him and said, "No."

"That?"

"Just wait." Xue Ziqin said again.

He got up and went to the weapon rack to pick up his own bow—this bow was given by the old man, and he liked to use it very much, but this did not prevent him from not wanting to deal with the old man. He picked up the bow and quiver and carried it on his back.

Not long after, Guo Linchong came over with a man and a horse.

Most of the horses were borrowed from Jingbing, except for Guo Linchong and Xue Ziqin.

Guo Linchong's war horse is not a famous horse, but it has been with him for many years. Its coat is black and shiny, and its whistle is loud, so it has a very good relationship with him.

Xue Ziqin stepped forward and stroked his war horse.Xue Ziqin's war horse has a terrifyingly strong temper. If a stranger wants to hold it, he will be kicked to death, let alone ride it.When he was attacked that day, the flames startled the horses. Xue Ziqin's horse broke free from the reins first, and went somewhere. Not long after the battle ended, it ran back by itself.It is said that a good horse understands human nature, and the relationship between Xue Ziqin and it cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

Xue Ziqin's horse is a rare white horse in Xuan Kingdom, and its mane is longer than other horses.There is a brown pattern on its forehead, which looks like a willow leaf, so Xue Ziqin named it White Willow.Bai Liu was a pony that Xue Changfeng got by accident during the fierce battle at the border eight years ago, and it was rewarded to Xue Ziqin at that time. It can be said that he and Bai Liu grew up together, and their relationship is very deep.

"Bai Liu," Xue Ziqin touched Bai Liu's face with his big hand, and then stroked its long mane. Bai Liu actually rubbed his head on Xue Ziqin's shoulder like a baby, "I haven't taken you out for a long time."

At this moment, Jiang also greeted Luo Yansheng, Zhong Yi's young apprentice, and asked him to take care of Wei Lin today.Just walking over at a trot, when he saw a dozen horses at once, he was in a bad mood, but he ran over anyway.

The soldiers led by Guo Linchong all had longbows and quiveres on their shoulders, and they threw them on the ground. Xue Ziqin immediately ordered: "Take the arrows, mount the horses, go hunting today, and give the brothers extra meals!"

"Yes!" Everyone could hear joy in their answers.

In the military camp, what do you want most?Nothing is better than wine, meat and women.

Jiang didn't dare to say it, but he had to say it now. He quietly walked up to Xue Ziqin and whispered, "General, I don't know how to ride a horse."

Xue Ziqin turned his head to look at it, and the more he looked at it, the more he didn't like it: "Why don't you know anything?"

"..."

Jiang also didn't know how to explain it, but if he wanted to tell Xue Ziqin that he was born as a young master, so he didn't know anything, he couldn't say it.

Zhao Zhinan heard their conversation.

Originally, Zhao Zhinan was not familiar with them, and he had a little feud with Jiang.But in this barracks, except for one or two people who get along day and night, the others are collectively called comrades-in-arms.Comrade-in-arms must help if something happens, this is a tacit iron rule, not to mention that Zhao Zhinan has also received benefits from Wei Lin, and now seeing that Jiang is also in trouble, he opened his mouth to help him: "General, why don't I take Jiang with me? I can ride well."

Hearing this, Xue Ziqin turned his head to look at him coldly, and said, "Get on the horse first, and then tell me how good your riding skills are." He winked at Guo Linchong, and Guo Linchong immediately pulled out a horse knowingly , brought it to Sanri, and handed over the reins to Zhao Zhinan.
