Nothing good happens when the sea is calm. The calmer it is, the more worried Zhang Xiaowu is. If the bandits appear, their purpose will naturally not be to deal with his group of sergeants, but the ladies of the four convoys or the Gu family. But bandits are bandits after all.
, unless necessary, they will not provoke any regular army of the empire or kingdom.
After a while, another scout reported back, saying that a figure was found outside the forest again, but he just rode away and no one could catch up.
Zhang Xiaowu's worries became even more serious. It seemed that not only he had chosen this forest, but the enemy had also chosen this forest.
Out of caution, Zhang Xiaowu ordered a horse trip rope to be made in the forest and hung many bells on the rope. This birch forest is about 30 acres. The birch trees grow easily and rely on the spring of life to form this oasis. There are more than 1,000 bells on the ropes.
The team of people and vehicles was hidden in the forest, and nothing could really be seen. After Zhang Xiaowu ordered everyone to station on the tomb of King Luolan hundreds of years ago, he connected all the carriages to create a simple fence, and everyone rested inside the fence.
.
Miss Gu's camp was in the center and was firmly protected by everyone. After getting off the carriage, the three ladies felt bored and wanted to walk around, but they were refused by the sergeants. The sergeants said that the colonel had an order
, the three young ladies of the Gu family are not allowed to leave the place where everyone can shoot, otherwise they will be punished with military orders.
Princess Shi yelled with sharp teeth and sharp lips: "Is there a military order for us? I would like to know what the punishment is? Is it to take our heads?"
Several soldiers did not dare to answer. They lowered their heads and looked at each other. Suddenly, a voice came: "The Holy Han Forbidden Army has a military code of eighteen executions. Anyone who disobeys the marching order will be executed."
"You dare to kill me?" Princess Shi turned around and waited, and saw a handsome and cold-faced officer standing behind him like a javelin. He was more than six feet tall, wearing a corset leather armor, with flowing clouds and snow on his feet.
, with a crimson shawl tied around his neck, and his eyes were like a deep pool of water with no bottom to the bottom, so submerged that no one could breathe.
Princess Shi had never seen such a gentleman who could look at her without evading her eyes. She immediately felt heavy breathing due to the look in his eyes. She lowered her head and tried to calm herself down, saying: "You...you want to kill me."
?”
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Unless you deliberately violate military discipline and put me in danger, ladies, please go back and don't embarrass us, the military officers who protect you."
"Huh, others are afraid of you, but I'm not afraid of you." Princess Shi, who had always been fierce, felt that her momentum had been suppressed, and her stubborn temper became stronger. She raised her head and said back with her hands on her waist. She tried her best to look at Zhang Xiaowu with a look of eagerness,
There is quite a posture of trying to kill me.
Zhang Xiaowu turned around helplessly and ordered: "Zhao Suo, bring me the whip I use to whip my horse. This princess..."
"You - I am the princess of Nanyang County Prince's Mansion, you dare to touch me." Princess Shi said with her head held high.
Zhang Xiaowu pretended to be serious and said politely: "Okay, I will definitely meet the princess's request. Zhao Suo, why don't you bring me the riding whip? Since the princess can't wait to have a taste of military law, let's give him thirty lashes first."
No one will die. Who can the princess choose for execution? Is there a satisfactory candidate?"
"You... you... you are really not a man when you hit a woman, huh! I curse you to find a tigress as your wife in the future!" Princess Shi, a good man, turned around and ran away immediately, not wanting to suffer the loss. But he still yelled from a distance without mercy.
The soldiers heard this and found it interesting. The princess had a sharp tongue, but she was also very lively and very friendly to the people.
Zhao Suo held up his whip and asked hesitantly: "Colonel, do you still want to fight? Otherwise, you come?"
"I'm just trying to scare her." Zhang Xiaowu said and shook his head and laughed. He was not a cold robot. If he really hit the princess, he would have really offended Military Advisor Gu. Besides, he was a grown man.
Not as small as this
Daughters have common sense. He turned around and continued to warn the sergeants: "You must protect the three ladies, but if the three ladies are really lively and restless, you don't need to strictly control them. We have taken care of several agencies around you.
Just be alert."
"Here." the sergeant said hurriedly.
Zhang Xiaowu walked around again before walking back to his tent, but he did not take off his clothes or armor. Hu Sanwan had already prepared sesame cakes, bacon and other food. Zhang Xiaowu drank some water and started eating. Suddenly he saw a light in the distance.
He grabbed the Pu Dao and ran out, only to see a bonfire burning next to Miss Gu's tent. Uncle Chen was holding two wild rabbits in his hands, and he immediately walked over in anger.
When Chen Boqing saw Zhang Xiaowu coming, he said: "It turns out to be Colonel Zhang. It's a pity that I only hunted two hares. Otherwise, I would have eaten and drank with Colonel Zhang. Now I can only give the ladies a taste."
Zhang Xiaowu frowned and ordered: "Put out the fire!"
"Here!"
Behind him, Zhao Suo immediately stepped forward to break up the bonfire and stamp out the sparks. Chen Boqing was so angry that he asked Zhang Xiaowu angrily: "What are you doing?"
Zhang Xiaowu said coldly: "We made an agreement last time that we must obey my military orders along the way. Unless permitted, no fires and meals are allowed along the way. Did Master Chen forget it?"
Chen Boqing said: "I have not forgotten it, but the fire was not started for us, but for the three ladies who have not eaten fire food for two days. We are rough people, used to drinking cold water and eating dry food, but the three ladies
A young lady has been pampered since childhood, how can she not eat fire food and drink some hot water?"
Zhang Xiaowu refused: "No."
The conflict that had lasted for many days was instantly ignited. Chen Boqing was furious, and Zhang Xiaowu was not a good-tempered person. The two glared at each other, and Chen Boqing snorted coldly: "Colonel Colonel, you have to give me an explanation, right? I promise Military Master Gu
Take good care of the three of them. Isn't it inappropriate if you don't allow them to eat or drink fire food? Are you afraid of provoking bandits or dogs? There are so many of us stationed here. Unless they are blind, they can't see us.
?”
Zhang Xiaowu saw that the other party was moving Master Gu out, and then he was silent for a moment and explained: "Master Chen, it is military law not to light fires when marching. Since it is military law, we must abide by it. Jianghu rangers and bandits can not abide by military discipline, but soldiers must abide by it. We
Use military law to train soldiers not to be afraid of death or hardship, so that when they are called, they will come, they will be able to fight, and they will be able to win."
Chen Boqing asked: "Master Zhang, what you mean is that we must also abide by your army's discipline?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Since you are traveling with the army, you must abide by military regulations. I can't make an exception for you."
Chen Boqing sneered: "So, Mr. Zhang is just for his own military discipline, not that he can't light a fire to cook?"
Zhang Xiaowu's heart suddenly became angry, and he said angrily: "If Master Chen doesn't want to abide by military regulations, can he leave? I am ordered to protect the three rich ladies of the Gu family, not you generals who have the ability to protect themselves. If you people can protect yourself,
How could you escape to Mucheng in embarrassment if you are powerful? If you are really trusted by the military advisor, why would the military advisor ask us to protect you? In the final analysis, it is your lack of ability."
Chen Boqing also said angrily: "I want to see what the ghost general is capable of."
However, Zhang Xiaowu stood up and retreated, raising his hands. A strange team immediately appeared behind him, with twenty-five people holding strong bows pointing directly at Chen Boqing. Zhao Suo, the captain of the guard, looked at Chen Boqing with a smile.
Chen Boqing couldn't help but take a step back. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said that he was despicable. It turned out that he had ambushed a group of archers and did not abide by the rules of the world.
