Chapter 1 Master Gu

No wonder it is addictive to helping people. At first I didn’t believe it. It seems that there are really people with this kind of psychological need. Of course, Lu’e’s situation is not the same. If I were a psychologist, I could write an argument based on her that the maid’s status in feudal society was low and the psychological distortion of the psychological need of people. However, I don’t have the time to comfort her now and said, “It’s just right that you don’t have to take anything, and you don’t have to worry about me being hungry.”

Lu'e said with a small mouth and sobbed, "You are used to serving people. When you come to the army, you are all those stupid guys with big hands. I'm not relieved."

I smiled and said, "That's the case, it would be best if I could bring you with me."

Lu'e was speechless. It seemed that she was really thinking. But she had been a servant in Shi's house for many years and knew the rules of the army. Not to mention me, even Shi Cundao dared to take a woman openly while marching and fighting. Finally, she sighed casually: "You go to bed quickly, aren't you going to get up tomorrow at Yin's hour?" She lie down while lying down, but she didn't sleep at the table. One was because she couldn't sleep, and the other was because she was afraid that she would miss the hour. It was already late at night, and there were only two or three hours left by Yin's hour.

I lay in a daze for a while and was aroused by Lu'e. I wiped my face and walked towards the chamber. As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard someone joking inside. When I walked in, I saw that Stilzi and Stilzi were wearing new armor and patted me and stabbed you and played. Although they both had military positions, they rarely had the chance to wear such formal armor, so they felt fresh at this time. When they saw me in, they asked together, "Where is the fifth brother's armor?"

I waved my hand and said, "Grandpa said he asked someone to do it for me, but I don't know what happened."

At this time, Shi Cundao walked in with Shi Fei and Shi Dong, and a soldier was following behind him, holding a set of armor in his arms. Shi Cundao said, "Wulang, come and see if it fits?"

I just slapped the armor from a distance, and the thing was a round helmet, a sleeve, and two armor skirts on it. It was clearly the most common guards in the Shi Mansion. Looking at others, even the armor of the Stitch brothers in the Stitch had helmet tassels, helmet wings, shoulder pads, hands covering, and flowers on the heart-protecting mirror, let alone compared to Shi Cundao's lion mane chain armor.

Seeing that I looked strange, Shi Cundao explained: "Di Zai, although you are the left front general, you have not been officially enthroned by the emperor, so you cannot wear it. After today's oath-taking meeting, grandpa will order someone to carefully make new armor for you."

I said awkwardly, "What are you doing with such formalism?" Even though I said that, I still put the sleeve on my shoulder, put on a helmet, and turned it around twice, "It's quite fit." Of course, it's so simple. A set of armor was specially made by Shi Cundao for me two days ago. How can ordinary soldiers get this treatment? Although this set of armor is ordinary, the weight of the armor leaves is meticulously weaving and the weight is reasonable. It can be said that the material is added without the price, but after two days, I can only do this step.

After everyone arrived, they started to have breakfast. Someone came to report that the guard of honor outside the door had been in place, and then someone reported that the road from here to outside the city had been cleared. Seeing that the preparations were all ready, Shi Cundao stood up and said, "Go!"

When they learned that Shi Cundao was going out today, the people from Shi's house naturally came to see him off. Seeing that the old man walked out first, everyone stood on both sides, and all four ladies stood on the side to watch. The old man who could talked, prayed a lot, wishing the old marshal a victory to succeed. Shi Cundao nodded slightly to both sides. At this time, a smart girl came out of the crowd, grabbed Shi Cundao's hand and begged: "Grandpa, you are going out today, I'll give you a gift?" It was Shi Dijia.

Shi Dong glared: "Nonsense."

Shi Cundao waved his hand and said, "This is also Jia'er's filial piety, let her go."

Taking this opportunity, my cheap mother flashed from the crowd and grabbed my hand and rubbed it carefully. She burst into tears and said, "Dizai, your father and two brothers have sold their bodies to the country. You must not have something wrong. Remember to say something for your mother, don't go to places that are too dangerous. There are so many people in our country, and it's not that you must be, so don't show off."

I was moved and funny in my heart. At the end of the day, I felt sorry for my son. I couldn't even care about any national plan, fame and fortune. I pulled her hand and said, "Son understands in my heart - be careful to let grandpa listen." When I looked behind the eldest lady, Lu'e stood behind with red eyes. I smiled at her and said, "Take care for yourself, the young master comes back to bring you fun."

Lu'e wiped her eyes and said, "It's important to take good care of yourself."

Shi Dong looked at the third wife and Guizhi, but after all, he didn't go up to talk to him because of his identity. Shi Dijia smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry, after you leave, I will definitely take good care of your mother and aunt, especially to ensure that your aunt can't stand the bullying."

Shi Dong glared at her again, but his expression became much more relieved.

Everyone left the door, and someone led the horse. Shi Cundao took the lead in getting on the horse. The old groom of the Shi Mansion brought me the oolong horse, but the other hand was still holding the reins of the white horse. The old groom said, "Fifth Young Master, this young couple can't leave each other. When I was leading the horse in the morning, the white horse had to follow, otherwise the dark horse would not leave the circle. What do you think?"

I smiled and said, "What else can I do? Let me take it with you together." As I said that, I patted the Wulong man's head and said, "Take your wife with me, you are even more awesome than me."

The gate of Shi Mansion was lined up with military ceremonial guards. The first one was the imperial guards, and then the imperial guards with long-legged ceremonial tents. With Shi Cundao's guards and flag tents, more than 5,000 people drove to the city gate in a mighty manner. The imperial guards were paving the road in front of them. People of all kinds were standing on both sides of the streets. The group of people pressed Shi Chen and rushed to the road at Mao hour. It was expected that they would pass by the city gate at the hour of Mao and arrive at the camp outside the city around Chen hour.

After walking less than 5 miles forward, the team's speed suddenly slowed down. It seemed that someone was blocking the road ahead. Shi Dong looked at the sky and asked the horse who had just returned with a calm face: "What's going on ahead?"

The explorer said, "Go back to the general, the road ahead was blocked by Master Gu's sedan chair."

"Teacher Gu?" Shi Dong's face moved slightly, and he pondered at Shi Cundao: "Father, this..."

Shi Cundao had no expression on his face and pointed at a personal soldier from beside him and said, "Go and take a look." The personal soldier agreed loudly and drove away.

I asked Shi Dong in a low voice: "Uncle San, who is this Grand Master Gu?"

Shi Dong glanced at me and said, "Even if you haven't been an official in the court before, there is no reason not to know Grand Master Gu, right?"

I mentioned in my heart that I knew that I had caused a little trouble. Although Wuwu Cundao's literary talent was not good at martial arts, he was Shi Cundao's grandson after all, so he should know any high-ranking officials in the court. I was a little rash in this question.

Fortunately, Shi Dong didn't delve into it and said, "Teacher Gu's youngest daughter is the emperor's concubine. Since the king and queen Bintian the last year, the most favored concubine in the palace was Concubine Gu. In time, the mother who is in charge of the world will probably be this concubine sooner or later."

I suddenly said, "It turns out to be the emperor's father-in-law."

Shi Dong said: "Speaking of this, there is another person in the Gu family who has dealt with you. Didn't you fight with the imperial guards when you were making a big fuss in the palace? You won't know who their commander is, right?"

"Gu Debiao?"

Shi Dong said: "That's right."

I thought to myself, no wonder Huang Yifei said that day that Gu Debiao had a prominent family background. It turned out that this kid was the emperor's brother-in-law. No wonder Huang Yifei had the best management of the God-Binding Gu Debiao, but he could only be under Gu Debiao's name. It's because this competitor's identity is too special.

Shi Dong whispered: "It would be difficult to deal with if the Taishi Gu is blocking the way. He is a royal relative and has the privilege of meeting a sedan chair and horse on the road. He wants him to give way unless the emperor ordered it."

I said, "How can I get there?"

Shi Cundao listened to the two of us, suddenly snorted, and said with a round of horse heads: "Wulang follows me to see."

I followed Shi Cundao, and Shi Dijia was eager to watch the fun and followed quietly. We walked through the imperial guards and came to the front. We saw a large sedan chair in the road, saying that it was a large sedan chair in the eight-carrying sedan chair. It was not a little bigger than the sedan chair that was usually carried by four people. It was as wide as the road, blocking the road surface. There were also two teams of guards in front of the sedan chair. Shi Cundao's personal soldiers shouted loudly: "Who is blocking the way in front?" This sentence was a question of knowingly. Who else could there be in the sedan chair in Hong Lie Empire except for the Grand Master?

At this time, a blue mule came out of the opposite team. A fat man in a housekeeper wearing a navy blue brocade robe looked at Shi Cundao's personal soldiers. He might have already started to see someone shouting so loudly, but today the situation is special. When he saw that the other party was dressed in the army, he suppressed his anger and bowed: "This military officer has invited him. Here is the general manager of the Gu Mansion, and the Grand Master Gu in the sedan chair is."

The personal soldier said, "Why block the way?"

The manager said patiently: "It was not intentional blocking the way, it was because the sedan was slow to move, so it blocked the path."

The personal soldier said, "You blocked Marshal Shi's path, let's go there quickly, let's pass first!"

The fat man's face twitched and smiled and said, "Since he is Marshal Shi's tiger frame, he must have rushed to the city gate. My Grand Tutor wants to send you the army there. Why don't you ask the Marshal to follow our sedan chair slowly. When we arrive at the city gate, we will part with each other. How about their respective duties?"

The personal soldier was more impatient than him, and waved his hand and said, "Where is your business, now get out of the way."

The fat general manager could no longer suppress his anger and said loudly: "Bold! I will tell you all the good things, why are you not familiar with human nature? Who dared to order the Grand Master to give way?"

The personal soldier said sternly: "Even the Taishi today, the Taishi has to give way. Can you afford to delay the time?" He was a small personal soldier. Not only did he not take the Taishi's official position as a general in charge, but he didn't even take the Taishi himself seriously. Even I was aside, he thought he was unreasonable.

The more the two sides talked, the more they became, and then Shi Cundao rushed forward and said steadily: "It turned out to be the master of Grand Master Gu, I am polite here."

After saying this, he lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and an old man wearing a jade crown showed his face and reluctantly said, "Master Shi is polite." Obviously, Grand Master Gu also heard the conversation between his supervisor and his personal soldiers, and his face looked very bad.

Shi Cundao glanced at the personal soldier and said, "Since you know it is Tai Shi Gu, how dare you be so rude, why don't you apologize to Tai Shi?"

The personal soldier said respectfully, "Yes." He turned his face and bowed to Master Gu with an expressionless face, "I offended the humble position." Everyone could see that he was perfunctory, and Master Gu hummed as a response.

Shi Cundao exposed this and said with a smile: "The situation today is special. How about you ask the Taishi to do it?" After all, he still had to ask the Taishi to give way. Taishi Gu's face changed and was about to attack. At this time, a man turned from behind the sedan chair. He rode on the horse and said in the sedan chair: "Dad, I think we should give in."

When I saw that this person was Gu Debiao, the commander of the Imperial Guard, I bowed to him. Gu Debiao smiled at me without any notice. However, his eyes paused beside me as he looked up. I turned my head and saw that it was Stich. Stich saw someone looking at her, so he made a face at Gu Debiao and laughed in a low voice: "This person looks like a big horse monkey." The face of Gu Taishi was unstable, and finally he waved his hand angrily, and Gu Debiao immediately shouted: "Give it!"

The eight-lifted sedan slowly moved aside, and our people were able to pass through. This accident destroyed the majesty of the Grand Master of the dynasty. When the soldiers were walking, they all raised their heads and chests and left with high spirits.

Walking on the road again, I saw that there was no one around and asked Shi Cun in a low voice: "Grandpa, were we a little too much just now?"

Shi Cundao stroked his beard and said, "What are you referring to?"

I said, "Tishi Gu is the emperor's father-in-law after all, and he just lost such a big person... Did you have a holiday with him?"

Shi Cundao smiled and said, "If you want to talk about Taishi Gu, I have no close relationship with him, but there are no conflicts. It is a forced way to do so."

I was curious: "Why?"

Shi Cundao pointed to the personal soldier just now and said, "Tell him why?"

The personal soldier shouted: "The army is moving forward, and there will never be any obstacles in the road ahead. This is also auspicious intention to move forward. Even if the royal relatives are blocking the way, please ask him to move out of the way!"

Shi Cundao nodded with satisfaction and said to me: "I heard that, sometimes our prestige still needs to be swayed, especially as the army is about to set off, we must not let the morale of the army be shaken at all."

I nodded and said, "I understand, but... will Master Gu hold a grudge in his heart?"

Shi Cundao said: "The emperor has to explain the work here to him. If he still can't let go, there is nothing he can do. At worst, I will go to make peace with him after returning to the court."

I sighed: "I feel more and more that the knowledge of war is too profound, and I am afraid I can't learn it anymore."

Shi Cundao said: "What's this? Today's highlight is still you. The emperor has always kept secret about your identity. Just to give the three armies a surprise today, you must be prepared."

After walking forward for less than half an hour, the large group of people had arrived at the gate of the city. The two gates were open waiting for us to pass. The civil and military officials were arranged on both sides according to their ranks. They sent the prime minister Lin Chengen of the current dynasty to set up a table of incense tables and chanted the proclamation for the army. Prime Minister Lin held a paper in his hand and recited it for a long time with the support of the two disciples. Four words were nothing more than words of "receiving the people and punishing the enemy and paying the credit" to promote our army's power. Then he picked up a glass of wine to advance to Shi Cundao's horse. However, Shi Cundao did not dismount. He raised his glass and drank it all, and said loudly: "Thank you, my fellow practitioners, I will definitely serve the country with death." Then he clasped his fists and passed by everyone. The majesty of the great marshal can be seen.

According to the general rules of the Hong Lie Empire, all officials could only send him off at the city gate to send him off. So Shi Fei had to stay in the city, watching his two sons follow their third uncles further and further until they disappeared. The last glance I happened to see Grandmaster Gu urging his eight-carriage sedan to come in a hurry. There was no way. The marshal went on a battle to send off his farewell to the Hong Lie Empire. He did not dare to disobey the Grandmaster, but finally, he looked at our backs for the last time, and it was barely considered to have given him...

Walking further forward, there are empty rural paths. Without any obstacles, I arrived at the Central Army camp soon. I saw that the camp tent was endless, with 750,000 Central Army, the most elite of the Honglie Empire, stationed here.

In the middle of the camp, the commander's platform was built high, with flying dragon flags floating high on both sides, which shows that the emperor has arrived at the camp, and there are people in the imperial guards and the God-Binding Guards waiting for the battle under the stage.

When he learned that Shi Cundao had arrived, Eunuch Li took it out. Shi Cundao then dismounted and greeted him. Finally, he asked, "The Emperor has arrived?"

Eunuch Li said: "The Emperor installed a temporary bedroom here yesterday in order not to delay the army's itinerary."

Shi Cundao said: "The old minister is afraid. When will the emperor's oath meeting be held?"

Eunuch Li said: "If the old marshal is tired, he can rest for a while. The emperor's meaning is very clear. Since he is in the military camp, everything will be followed by the old marshal."

Shi Cundao nodded and said, "That's not going to happen, I'm going to kill someone to blow the trumpet."

Eunuch Li bowed his hands and said, "Please give me some advice."

Shi Cundao immediately ordered: "Get together!"

The ox horn sounded, and the barracks suddenly became boiling. The soldiers all went out to gather, and there were special people to store tents. The camp with nearly one million people was basically assembled in less than 10 minutes. A neat 30,000-person team was set up in front of the coaching platform, and the ministers gathered here to wait.

Zhu Xiaofeng heard the horn walking out surrounded by everyone. This was the first time that most of the 30,000 soldiers in front of the commander-in-chief met the emperor. He couldn't help but crawl on the ground and shout long live. As soon as these tens of thousands of people shouted, a chain reaction occurred in the entire camp. The officers and soldiers who were several miles away also knew that the emperor had arrived in person, so they shouted, and then heard the sound of long live in a radius of several miles. Sometimes, as soon as this camp finished shouting, it spread to the next camp, and the noise gradually stopped after more than ten minutes, which scared the birds nearby and the plants and trees changed directions.

Zhu Xiaofeng stepped onto the commanding platform, waved his hand down, and said concisely: "Today, I will see you off for all the soldiers. May God bless me Hong Lie." He picked up a glass of wine and sprinkled it on the ground, which was to honor the world, and then signaled Eunuch Li to read the edict.

Eunuch Li stood in the audience and said melodiously: "In the 12th year of the Showa period of the Honglie Empire, Heijis had 300,000 vanguards invaded the border, and his main force was unknown. The enemy was brutal and the enemy was aggressive. However, I decided to fight with him to the death, and never leave half an inch of land on the enemy, and never make a commoner lose his father. Now I specially named Shi Cundao as the Marshal of the Protecting Kingdom and the General Leading the Three Armies. I hereby respect this."
