Cars were racing, horses were rustling, and pedestrians were carrying bows and arrows at their waists.
Ye Niang and his wife walked to see each other off, but Xianyang Bridge was nowhere to be seen.
He held his clothes, stamped his feet, and blocked the road to cry, and his cry went up to the sky.
People passing by the road asked about the pedestrians, but the pedestrians were confused.
Du Fu's "War Chariots" aptly describes a real scene in ancient times.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Yang Fan had a profound understanding of this poem at this moment.
However, Yang Fan knew that now was not the time to feel depressed, so he whipped up his whip and galloped towards the Supervisory Operation Camp.
Arriving at the Supervisory Operation Camp, people inside were hurried, walking fast, and the occasional shouting seemed to be in full swing.
These people were loading various materials onto the carts, and rows of motorcades were displayed in the open space, looking orderly.
Yang Fan nodded secretly. It seemed that nothing happened. The person responsible should be a talented person.
But because it was loess, the people and horses stirred up bursts of dust, which made Yang Fan feel a little uncomfortable.
I frowned and made my rounds, trying to find the official in charge at the scene. We must pay attention to this kind of sanitary conditions, so as not to cure lung disease before we go out for the expedition.
At this moment, Yang Fan heard a familiar call and turned around to see Chai Lingwu leading a group of people waving and calling to him with excitement.
Jumping off his horse, Yang Fan came to Chai Lingwu and asked with a frown: "Are you going to fight together? Who are they?"
Judging from the attire of these people, they were obviously part of this expedition. Unfortunately, apart from Chai Lingwu, Yang Fan didn't recognize any of them.
Chai Lingwu, who was diligently taking over the reins of the horse, suddenly became depressed and said resentfully: "Master, didn't you check the list of accompanying officials? Didn't it already arrive at your house two days ago?"
Rubbing his nose, Yang Fan felt a little embarrassed. As the admiral of the supply camp, he didn't even know who his subordinates were, which was indeed a bit derelict in his duties.
However, I was so busy the past two days that I had no time to look at the roster.
Yang Fan's face turned solemn and he shouted coldly: "Who is your master? There are no fathers and sons in the army, so how can you use my official title for personal reasons... Besides, I am busy with my affairs, so I don't have time to pay attention to the roster.
?”
Chai Lingwu immediately put away his smile and said seriously: "Escort Shi Chai Lingwu has met General Zhongwu!"
Yang Fan was a little surprised. He didn't expect Chai Lingwu to be the escorting officer.
Although Yang Fan is responsible for coordinating and supervising the transportation, there are many escort officers under the custody operation.
For example: those who escort grain and grass are called grain escorts, and there are craftsmen who are responsible for repairing and distributing weapons... In addition to these, there are also transportation supervisors and so on.
Therefore, the logistics supply of ancient wars was actually a tedious and complicated task.
This was also the reason why Li Jing and Cheng Yaojin initially opposed Yang Fan's appointment as Admiral of Transportation.
They were worried that Yang Fan would be caught out because of his young age and inexperience, or even make some mistakes.
"Oh? Then let me introduce you to this general..." Yang Fan nodded and looked at the other three people.
Chai Lingwu pointed to an elegant young man holding a thick account book and said: "This is Supervisor Shi Gaoqiu... The other two are Shi Yushi Tang Yoshi and Guanglu Qing Wang Jingzhi..."
"My subordinates have met the general!" Chai Lingwu had just finished his introduction, and Gao Jingcheng and others quickly saluted.
There is no way, the official level will crush people to death!
Yang Fan waved his hand: "No need to be polite!"
Having said that, I was a little stunned inside.
Li Er was so capable that he actually brought all these princes-in-law into the governor's office. He obviously wanted to let them take advantage of the opportunity to gain military glory by going to Tibet.
Gu Qiao
If Chang Sun Chong and himself were added together, this supervisory operation would simply become a concentration camp attached to Ma Ye.
However, the current Gao Jiji is a good talent. Later he became the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. No wonder he was able to arrange things in an orderly manner.
Although Gao Ji's position is to supervise transportation history, which is only one word different from Chai Lingwu's escort history, the scope of their duties is completely different.
Escort is a position for escorting grain, fodder, baggage and other materials.
The transportation supervisor is the official who arranges the itinerary and dates of logistics supplies.
In the supervision operation, in addition to the Supervisor of Operations Yang Fan and the Supervisor of Operations Shi Changsun Chong, the third person should be Gao Jiji.
Shi Yushi Tang Yoshi and Guanglu Qing Wang Jingzhi were responsible for observing discipline and being in charge of catering affairs respectively.
After listening to Gao Jixi's report on the progress of various affairs, the soldiers came to report. Hou Junji, the general manager of the march, ordered the chief officers of each department to go to the commander's tent to discuss matters.
Although Yang Fan was usually a fool, he also knew that there were a mountain of military orders in the army, and he didn't want to let others catch him before he even went into battle.
Not daring to delay at all, Yang Fan hurried off after asking for the direction of the commander's tent.
Outside the city, barracks that could accommodate tens of thousands of people stretched for miles. The location of the handsome tent made it easy for Yang Fan to find.
After asking all the way, he came to the commander's tent, jumped off his horse, and said to the soldiers outside the commander's tent: "Admiral Yang Fan, the superintendent of transportation, has come to discuss matters on the order of the chief general."
Yang Fan's name is not only spread among noble families, but even in the military camp, Yang Fan's deeds are well-known.
That kind of fearless momentum has long been spread among the soldiers, and they are secretly amazed.
Who doesn't admire the man who dares to punch the prince and confront the prince?
It's just that Hou Junji, the general manager of the march, is a member of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The admiral who is supervising the transportation of drums and gathering generals is actually late, and there will be trouble.
Thinking of this, the soldiers looked at Yang Fan with admiration and a hint of sympathy.
However, the soldiers did not dare to delay at all: "The commander-in-chief has given orders. As soon as the general arrives, there is no need to announce, just enter directly!"
Yang Fan cupped his hands, opened the tent door and stepped inside.
The sun was shining brightly outside, but as soon as he entered the handsome tent, the light was a bit gloomy. Yang Fan squinted his eyes slightly to adapt.
At the same time, a deep voice sounded in my ears: "Commander, General Niu's vanguard battalion got up early to set off. We need to leave as early as possible. Tubo has assembled an army of 200,000. If General Niu fights alone, the general will be afraid..."
This man was so angry that his words made Yang Fan's eardrums buzz, and his voice echoed around the handsome tent, leaving a lingering feeling.
Looking around, we can see that this man has a lush beard, yellow hair, a sun-shining helmet on his head, wearing plum blossom armor, a red velvet armor strip tied around his waist, an animal face covering his heart in front, and a white-coloured flower robe draped over his shoulders.
Wearing a pair of yellow leather high boots.
Judging from the clothing and attire, you can see at a glance that there is an obvious wildness mixed with the outside world.
Hou Junji, who was sitting in the commander's seat, waved his hand leisurely and said: "Left leader, please be patient. I have ordered the messengers to convey the commander's military orders to the forward camp. Once the army arrives,
Only then can we attack Tubo together."
"The handsome man is wise!" As he said that, the man clasped his fists and stepped aside.
Yang Fan went through it in his mind. The leader of the left army... was also a foreign general. He must have lost his mind.
Zhi lost his thoughts and was a Turk. He was originally the chief of the Zhi lost tribe of the Eastern Turks. After the fall of the Eastern Turks, he returned to the Tang Dynasty and served as the general of the left army.
Later, he was ordered to surrender the Hun, Husa and other tribes, and married Princess Jiujiang, the daughter of Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty and the sister of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.
This guy became famous in the Tang Dynasty and was the first foreign general to marry a Tang princess.
Although he was eventually exiled due to Fang Yiai's rebellion, he can still be regarded as a winner in life.
