Chapter 18 Military Orders

There was suddenly silence in the venue.

The morning breeze blew, gently brushing every face with different expressions on the venue, but the invisible tension at the scene was even more solemn.

Li Xiao had no expression on his face. He looked at a faraway place with his hands behind his back. No one knew what he was thinking.

Tian Wei sneered in his heart, Humph, Li Xiao, you are now being caught by me, Tian Wei. You are so innocent that you are innocent. You are just a silly man, and you are not successful in the first place, and you are going to ride on the heads of the small flag officers for us. Do you want the rules of the Ming Dynasty official army?

Mo Changrong, who was beside him, had a clear face.

The captain of the whistle cavalry, Gao Pu, looked puzzled at first, then his face was filled with anger. He turned around and wanted to curse Tian Weimo Changrong and the others. At this time, he could hear a sound of horse hooves from a distance.

"General, it is Wang Shou Ge's servant captain Ren Guangyuan, here." Hua Ji said to Gao Pu in a low voice.

Gao Pu frowned and saw that the captain of the servant Ren Guangyuan led two prostitutes quickly to his side.

"Well!"

Ten steps away from Gao Pu, Ren Guangyuan tied the reins of the horse and rolled off the horse. He held a paper in his hand and walked towards Gao Pu.

"General Gao, Wang Shouge is specially asked to pass the order to the sentry cavalry team." Ren Guangyuan bowed to Gao Pu, and then respectfully handed the document in his hand to Gao Pu.

Gao Pu nodded, took the document handed over by Ren Guangyuan and quickly browsed it.

Li Xiao glanced at Gao Pu's face suddenly became ugly and his brows became tighter and tighter.

"Wang Shouji's military order is really a great mission to Gao. I was thinking, Wang Shouji finally couldn't help but pull out my thorn." Gao Pu suddenly sneered.

Ren Guangyuan was embarrassed and said hurriedly: "Why did General Gao say this!"

"Don't pretend to be stupid. I know exactly what Wang Shouge wants to do to me! Wang Doqi said in the military order that we would send a sentry cavalry to explore the terrain near the Daling River. Haha, it's such a wonderful trick to kill people with a knife."

"I don't understand the meaning of Gao Ba."

"Hmph! As we all know, since Dalinghe City was captured and demolished by the Tartars the year before yesterday, the local area has become a place where Taurus whistle cavalry appears. Send us, the first-time soldiers, to the whistle cavalry team, is not killing people with a knife, what's the point!"

Gao Pu's face was almost distorted by anger.

"Gao Bashu misunderstood. This was not what Wang Shoubin intended, but the task assigned by General Zu Dashou (Zu Dashou) to me assign the task to Zhongtun Station, saying that it was for the purpose of re-selecting the site in the future and building Dalinghe City again." Ren Guangyuan quickly defended.

"Stop talking nonsense! Then I ask you, why are there so many camps and forts in Jinzhou not sent to me, and I only ask my Zhongtun Suo cavalry team to go?" Gao Pu asked.

"I don't know this...the general's intention."

Ren Guangyuan was angry, Gao Pu, if you have the ability, go and scold Zu Dashou, and ask me what the use of such an errand runner is.

In fact, Ren Guangyuan didn't know that the mission of this whistle detection and mapping was actually won by Wang Daoqi.

Two days ago, Wang Daqi went to visit Zu Dashou. When the two were chatting, Zu Dashou accidentally mentioned that the court would build Dalinghe City again in order to reduce the shame of returning to Jinzhou. As a result, Wang Daqi hurriedly said that he could send his own post cavalry at Zhongtun, Guangning, to detect and map the terrain for future use.

Wang Daqi's attentiveness touched Zu Dashou. In the environment in which western Liaoning was afraid of the Tartars, this person could take the initiative to propose to go to the sentry team of his own garrison to detect the sentry, which was a loyal and courageous act.

Zu Dashou praised Wang Daqi for a few words, then agreed to his suggestion, and told him that if the cavalry in Zhongtun successfully explored the information, he would be rewarded.

Wang Daqi returned from Zu Dashou's mansion and felt relieved inexplicably.

He thought proudly, Gao Pu, Gao Pu, you bastard, have been against me openly and secretly. Now, I finally found this opportunity to avenge my private revenge. Even the general of Shanhaiguan You Shiwei cannot protect you! Humph, this is all the result of your own suffering.

After returning to Zhongtun Station, Wang Daoqi wrote the military order documents, he asked his servant captain Ren Guangyuan to send him here early this morning.

The completion time of the whistle detection and mapping task arranged by Zu Dashou was one week, and Wang Daqi changed the time to three days in the document given to Gao Pu.

When making a blacksmith, you should get rid of thorns in your eyes like Gao Pu, and keep your future in mind. Of course, the sooner the better.

Ren Guangyuan used to scold Gao Pu and vent his anger, but unexpectedly, Gao Pu on the opposite side just tightened his face and said nothing.

Seeing this, Ren Guangyuan quickly said goodbye to him.

Gao Pu stood in a daze, watching Ren Guangyuan and the other two turn around and beat the horse and leave.

He stood still while gritting his teeth, but the documents he was holding were tighter and tighter until they formed a ball of paper.

He suddenly felt extremely sad.

Gao Pu was not afraid of death. He just couldn't bear to let these recruits who had just carefully selected to join. Before they had received the most basic battle formation and cooperation training, they had to fight with the elite Tartar whistle cavalry who had been through battle formations and eventually died unnecessary.

He looked at the new whistle riders who were still standing silent, with a gray face and a confused look on his face.

Looking back at his recruits, everyone's eyes were filled with panic.

"President Gao, Li Xiao wants to take a step to speak."

Gao Pu turned around and saw Li Xiao bowing to him.

"Li Xiao, what's the matter?" Gao Pu and Li Xiao walked aside and asked.

"General Gao, the post cavalry team in Zhongtun has been rebuilt. Everything is busy, so you need to take care of it with your hands. Let me leave this post detection and mapping matter to my deputy team." Li Xiao said in a low voice.

Gao Pu was surprised. He looked at Li Xiao with a calm expression with a shocking look. After pondering for a while, he asked slowly: "This is Wang Daoqi's act of assassinating Gao, but you don't have to participate in Li Xiao."

"General Gao, it's useless to say this now. Even if he uses a knife to kill people, he is passing on the military order of General Zu. How can we disobey orders? It's important to complete this task as soon as possible." Li Xiao said with a cold face.

A silent silence.

"Then, how many whistle riders do you need to bring?" Gao Pu finally spoke and sighed.

"Report to the chief, Li will take Chen Houzi and Wang Yishou there."

"Ah! How does this make!"

Gao Pu suspected that he had heard the wrong ears, so the three of them wanted to go to the land where the Tatar Whistle Cavalry was infested, which was not easy!

"General Gao Ba, I have thought about it carefully. If there are too many people in this whistle cavalry, it will easily reveal their whereabouts. Chen Houzi and Wang Yishou are both experienced old whistle cavalry and they also know the mapping of the terrain. It is enough for Li to take these two."

"But, the three of you went there, the number of people was too small. How could you get rid of the big squad of Tartars?"

Li Xiao smiled faintly, and he sighed and said, "General Gao Ba, it's not because Li said it directly. Just relying on the untrained new soldiers of the Sentinel Cavalry Team, no matter how many of them go, they will only be just to die."

Gao Pu choked, he wanted to say anything, but couldn't say anything.

"Planning depends on others, and success depends on heaven. If Li goes here, if he returns smoothly, it is Li's luck. If he dies at the hands of the Tartars, it is also Li's fate. Whether it succeeds or fails, Li will admit it." A faint smile appeared on Li Xiao's face, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

Gao Pu's eyes suddenly felt a little wet. He stepped closer and patted Li Xiao's strong shoulder hard: "Good brother, I wish you all safely return. At that time, I will use the best old wine in Jinzhou to kill you."

The two thick big hands were tightly held together.

Half an hour later, Li Xiao, who was covered in clothes, took Chen Houzi and Wang Yishou, who were wearing the same armor, and rode his horse out of Yongwang Gate, the north gate of Zhongtun, Guangning.

Gao Pu stood outside the north gate with all the whistlemen who were seeing off, silently staring at the three people who were racing on horseback and disappeared into the north wilderness.

What Gao Pu did not expect was that Tian Wei and Mo Changrong, who were beaten by Li Xiao, also came to see him off.
