Chapter 7 Who will come?

The cavalry ran to about fifty meters in front of Zhang's army before stopping. The three generals in front quickly lined up behind. There was always a thousand people going up, and there was no specificity.

When guerrilla investigations, it is not about counting heads one by one, but about counting the flags. How could Zhang Jun look at what flags?

"Who is the one in front?" The general who led the other party was wearing bright armor and asked loudly. However, he was not holding a horse spear, but a slightly shorter spear.

Horse spears and heavy cavalry were quite popular in the middle and early Tang Dynasty, but gradually became very rare in the later period.

Everyone is a Tang army, and the equipment standards are the same. However, at this time, the various military governors can no longer distinguish between enemies and friends by dressing.

Zhang Jun tapped the horse's belly lightly, and the horse sniffed and walked forward slowly. Because there was no order, the soldiers did not move and were on guard. The visitor was already within the range of the shooting of the crossbow.

After walking less than twenty meters ahead of the visitor, Zhang Jun stopped and looked at the three people opposite him. Everyone was not wearing a face armor, and they could see clearly.

"Foreign general, who?" Zhang Jun asked. This is a bit contemptuous. It was obviously someone who asked first.

It’s not that Zhang Jun is brave, but he knows that he can’t fight. So why not pretend to be a thug in front of his soldiers? To increase morale, and to improve his image.

Among the three, the one who was obviously the leader hung the spear in his hand on the saddle and hugged his fists: "Meng Bao, under the command of Li Jie of Shuofang, I don't know who is the noble general?"

"Isn't Zhang Zeng and Li Jie in Jingzhao serving the king to attack Zhu Ni? What's the point of this in the future?"

"I am here to look for the emperor's sage, and I also ask the general to take advantage of the military order of Li Jie to come here to find the emperor's sage."

Zhang Jun burst into laughter, looked at the three people on the opposite side and asked, "Your general is here to protect the emperor?"

Meng Bao's face changed a few times, and he let out a long breath and lowered his head. The two generals on his side also changed their faces and colored, turning their heads to look to one side.

"I know that the commander of Jie is disobedient. As a general of Tang, I dare not go to chase the saint. I was only forced to come here after being ordered by the general. I will go back and report to the death without chasing it, but I am just abolishing it.

Someone and his soldiers were eager to walk for a day, and they were hungry and thirsty. Seeing this, there was a camp, they came to check it out. They just needed to eat and drink light soup and then go. I hope General Zhang can make a convenient move."

In fact, they couldn't catch up even if they wanted to chase them. Because they were afraid that Fengxiang would leave troops to intercept them, Dezong and his party did not go here at all. Instead, they went around in circles, first went to Yangzhou, and then crossed Liangzhou to the west, and traveled around for more than 200 kilometers.

Zhang Jun just looked at the three people on the opposite side, stared at them for more than ten seconds, and suddenly smiled: "Do you want to fight a certain battle?"

"Someone is not a violation, so how can I get the reason for fighting?"

"Isn't Li Jie here to attack Zhu Jie under Fengxiang? "

Meng Bao almost choked on a spit.

After a long time, it turned out that it was Zhu Li's subordinate. He subconsciously held the spear, then sighed and put it down: "I am already a rebel general, I'm just waiting for the camp to report my life and be dismissed."

"Would you rather break the tiles than be reversed? Have you thought about it?"

Meng Bao nodded, betrayed the Tang Dynasty, which had been fighting for half a lifetime, and they could not do anything. It would be better to lose their official position and return to their hometown to be a commoner, regardless of whoever rises and falls, and there will be no more entanglements.

"I have some ideas. I don't know if you are waiting for me, should you listen?"

"What's the idea?"

"Your generals and others are unwilling to surrender and disobey. They are the same. They are preparing to take their troops back to rest. You know that you will be dismissed when you return to the camp, why not go along with someone?"

"What do you think?"

"Born in Jutang, why do you need to ask? However, the soldiers are not strong but the horses are not strong. Only the power of this battalion is the only one who wants to go back and recuperate and protect your relatives, and follow the trend in the future.

Now that the world is full of war, where is the whole body? How can you protect your family's safety if you lose your military position?

A good man is determined to be in all directions. It is the glory of our soldiers who are in peace and purging the world and opening up the border and restoring the territory. I wonder if you are the generals, can you dare?"

Meng Bao turned his head and looked at the two generals, hesitating a little.

These days are the time when they are wandering.

I don’t want to associate with Li Huaiguang’s rebellion, and I don’t know what to do, and I don’t know where to go.

Although they have been prepared to be dismissed from the order to lie and reopen the military, they can't imagine what they will do if they lose their military power. Even life and death are not certain.

The best result is to go back to Bining alive, but what kind of life will be in the future is unknown.

They are different from Zhang Jun. Zhang Jun is a formal official of the Tang Dynasty, and like Li Chulin, they are private soldiers of the vassal states. Their official positions are given by the Jiedushi, and they will be gone without anything.

"Are you still involved in the camp?"

“Not.”

"What are you hesitating about? Now I've been going to Binzhou to pick up people. I think Li Huaiguang must have no time to care about it. When he returns to the army and discovers, you have already gone far away, right?"

"Will your general turn Fengxiang not be afraid of being ruined?"

"I am an official of the Tang Dynasty, why are you afraid of being a subordinate?" Zhang Jun raised the horse spear in his hand and said, "It's just killing me."

"Wait, where can I find my husband?"

"You can come to the west camp outside Tianxing City to find someone, and someone will arrange for a kid to wait for your generals on the post road."

"So, please wait."

"Let's go." Zhang Jun turned around and called a soldier and asked him to go to the camp to find Li Yingyou to collect military rations.

The military rations in the Tang Dynasty were mainly millet, and beans and rice. They were cooked with thick porridge, but they would put vegetables and mutton in it, which was not difficult to eat. Compared with the army in the Song and Ming dynasties, it was simply a kind of happiness.

Soon, Li Yingyou, wearing stair armor, rode out of the camp on his horse.

"Langjun."

"Li Cangcao, this is General Meng. General Meng has exhausted his military rations from a long distance, so he can make up for General Meng's command from the camp. General Meng, how much is Jianlang under his command? Can he have a leader?"

"Honey, wait." Meng Bao turned around and ordered the other party to make arrangements, and asked the head of the team to come out to contact Li Yingyou. He actually didn't know much about the specific needs of these grains.

The reason why the Tang army swept the world and was invincible was that the civilian officials in the army made great contributions.

The army is not as simple as rushing over with a knife, especially the Tang army, which is the most complicated supply materials in the world.

The smallest unit of the Tang army is a gang, each with ten soldiers, that is, ten soldiers, and there are also gang leaders and gangsters. The gangsters are the ones who cook. In fact, this is how the name gangsters come from.

There is a person in each camp who is in charge of the mate, the head of the mate (the mate) who is responsible for distributing military rations, vegetables and meat to the mates on time every day according to regulations and for cooking, and in charge of the supply of the mates in the first battalion.

This is also a civil servant, and the names in various places and armies are different. Some people are also called Huo Cao, but in fact they have no rank and are under the jurisdiction of Cang Cao.

Li Yingyou asked with his eyes, and Zhang Jun nodded affirmatively. It's really not a fool.

Although Li Yingyou didn't understand the reason, he would not destroy his husband's station, and he felt a little relieved. It seemed that there was no need to fight.

After a moment, the head of the opposite party came over on horseback and got closer and dismounted to salute Zhang Jun.

"No need to be polite, please follow Li Cangcao."

Li Ying bowed his hand right and walked towards the camp with the guy who had climbed onto the horse again.
