Li Hanqing looked back and said with a gloomy face: "Hubei must have done this. After tomorrow, Brother Yu will seek justice for you."
Lei Xingkong smiled and said: "Everything depends on uncle's arrangement."
Li Hanqing took a closer look at Lei Xingkong and saw that Lei Xingkong behaved calmly and spoke without any complaint. Although he had always had a very good impression of Lei Xingkong in his heart, he couldn't help but think more highly of him at this time.
A few points.
Not only was he so brave at such a young age, but he also acted with moderation. He did not have the arrogance of young people and the temper that could not bear to be wronged. For Li Hanqing, this was the only person he had ever seen in his life.
"As expected of a general's son, he was so great when he was young, but I don't know what kind of person he will become as an adult in the future... Tsk, tsk, I am a hero, so if General Lei can be so respected and respected by Brother Yu, he must also be an extraordinary hero."
After secretly sighing, Li Hanqing showed more concern for Lei Xingkong, an outstanding junior, and comforted him harmoniously: "The environment at Zuofeng Camp is really bad. You and your soldiers must bear with it for a while. Tomorrow
I will definitely arrange a better place for you to stay."
Lei Xingkong nodded and agreed, then thought about it and asked again: "Uncle Li, I wonder who those people in the Zuofeng camp were before?"
Although he had somewhat guessed the identities of those in the Zuofeng camp, he still wanted to get the answer from Li Hanqing.
"Those are all iron officials."
In Yanyun Fortress, no one knew the origin of Zuofeng Camp, and it was not a military secret. Therefore, Li Hanqing said: "These people were originally death row prisoners. They killed people, set fires, raped and looted in the countryside, and committed heinous crimes.
, all of them are ferocious and brave people. When Yan Yun encountered the war this time, the imperial court allowed them to voluntarily surrender to the army to kill the enemy. The condition is that as long as they can capture the heads of a hundred enemy soldiers, they will be pardoned and released."
Sure enough!
Lei Xingkong finally confirmed his suspicion that these people were indeed iron officials and disciples.
In his previous life, Lei Xingkong also tried to fight side by side with iron officers and apprentices. There was even an extremely capable subordinate who was one of them. Because of his accumulated military merits, he was promoted to a full officer and became a real officer.
In the memory of the previous life, these iron officials and disciples were all desperadoes. The crimes they originally committed were enough to be beheaded. In order to obtain pardon, they were extremely brave in war, often risking their lives, and their combat power was even greater than that of ordinary military elites.
All must be strong.
Of course, although the iron officers and apprentices are strong in combat, the discipline of the soldiers cannot be described with just one word. It can only be said to be extremely bad.
When it is necessary to march through counties and borders, things like murder, arson, and looting often occur, just like locusts, causing headaches to the leading generals.
Because of this, under normal circumstances, iron officials and disciples will be used as cannon fodder. Once a group dies, another group will be replaced. Absolutely no general will treat these unruly and vicious guys well and treat them as ordinary soldiers.
The Zuofeng camp is said to be a camp, but since the Iron Officers are stationed in it, it is actually similar to a death row. In the fierce battle between Yong Kingdom and Tianhuo Kingdom, the death rate of Iron Officers must be extremely high.
Surviving in such an environment can be regarded as the elite among iron officials and disciples.
Recalling the living environment of the lean man and others he had seen before, Lei Xingkong couldn't help but thought to himself: "It's really not easy for these people to endure such great suffering and survive on the battlefield."
Li Hanqing continued: "I still remember the person who spoke to you before. He was the leader of these iron officials and disciples, named Long Rui. During this period, he led these iron officials and disciples to fight bravely and captured many barbarian heads.
class."
"Long Rui?"
Lei Xingkong thought about how those iron officials and disciples had previously called the lean man "Brother Long", and he immediately remembered the name in his mind...
We walked all the way towards Colonel Xuejie's residence, passing all the passes in the fortress along the way.
Lei Xingkong looked at it carefully and secretly sighed in his heart that Yanyun Fortress was known as the most powerful pass in the Yong Kingdom. It was indeed well-deserved. The layout of each pass was extremely beneficial to the defenders. If someone wanted to attack these passes forcefully, I'm afraid they would have to fill in the gaps.
A large number of human lives may not be obtained.
After a while, we finally arrived at the tallest building complex of the fortress.
Li Hanqing pointed to the lobby in the middle and said: "That's where the military meeting is, and behind it is the residence of the general who led the army this time." After a slight pause, he pointed to the hall on the left and said: "That's where the Colonel Protecting the North is.
Orders and letters obtained from military discussions in peacetime are issued there."
Lei Xingkong glanced at the largest building in the middle. Although it was pitch dark, he could still feel the majesty of it.
After thinking for a while, he asked: "I wonder which general is leading the army this time?"
Dayong's military system is different from that of other countries. Except for the most elite Yulin Army, among the county armies, those who are responsible for running the army on weekdays are the various captains stationed in the county.
In the event of a war, each captain did not have the power to mobilize the army. Instead, he had to wait for the court's decree to select a general to lead the army. The emperor personally paid homage to the general and bestowed military talismans on him. Then the general who received the military talisman could rush to the county and direct the war.
Therefore, to put it bluntly, the general sent by the imperial court is extremely important. He formulates the strategy and the county military captain is responsible for executing it.
Hearing Lei Xingkong's inquiry, Li Hanqing showed a hint of disdain on his face and whispered: "The leading general this time is Marquis Jieyi."
"Jieyihou?"
Lei Xingkong thought for a while, but there was no such person in his memory from the previous life.
Li Hanqing explained: "He is His Majesty's cousin-in-law, and his surname is Guan Yancheng."
"How could it be this person?"
As soon as the name was mentioned, Lei Xingkong immediately remembered it.
In the memory of his previous life, Guan Yancheng was not a Marquis of Jieyi, but Duke An Guo. He was originally a minister favored by Emperor Yong, but later for some unknown reason he surrendered to the enemy and fled to the Jin Kingdom. The incident shocked...
After thinking about it carefully, Lei Xingkong probably found some clues.
The Tianhuo Barbarian attack on Yanyun did not happen in the previous life, so he had never heard of Guan Yancheng. By the time Yong and Jin officially went to war, Guan Yancheng should have been promoted to Duke An when he defected to Jin. Therefore, he was
In my previous life, I only have the memory of Duke An, but I don’t know about Marquis Jieyi.
"It seems that this is the result of the butterfly wings accidentally flapping..."
Lei Xingkong didn't have much favorable impressions of Guan Yancheng because of the memory of Duke An Guo's surrender to the enemy in his previous life. However, because he was not sure whether the events in his previous life would go wrong, he tentatively asked: "How is this Marquis like a man?"
?”
Li Hanqing sighed lightly: "Although Marquis Jieyi knows military strategies, he is greedy for money, lustful, and has a despicable temper. He is an out-and-out dandy."
When Lei Xingkong heard this, he didn't ask any more questions and followed Li Hanqing silently, but he was certain of many things in his heart.
