Arriving in front of the Halberd Gate, Mang Shen shouted loudly: "General patrolling the camp!"
The commander who was sitting under the bamboo pole stood up, ran to the door of the halberd, crossed his hands and saluted: "The commander of the left camp and the right soldier will meet the general to the death!"
At this time, Erhei, who was holding an ax behind him, suddenly spoke: "Fourth brother, this is Lord Xinling!"
Hearing the words "Xinling Lord", the chief's eyes suddenly lit up. He crossed his hands and said to the two gangsters: "Second brother, are you serious about this?"
Lord Xinling also crossed his hands and saluted: "Master Wei Wuji has seen a strong man!"
Erhei said: "What I have seen can still be fake!"
The chief hurriedly crossed his hands and saluted again: "Common people have seen your Majesty!"
Lord Xinling asked: "What do you call a strong man?"
"Xiaosi, your Majesty, just call me Xiaosi! Your Majesty, please come inside!"
Lord Xinling followed Xiaosi inside and said to Xiaosi: "You are from a family with many children and many blessings. You have three brothers..."
"I did give birth to three brothers, but none of them lived to adulthood. They were only common people old enough to work as a servant!"
"Which department are you transferred from?"
"The common people are subordinates of Yimen Guards."
"How many people will Yimen Guards send this time?"
"Two battalions."
As he was talking, he came to the bamboo pole where the group of soldiers were sitting around. Xiaosi shouted: "Brothers, come here, Lord Xinling is here!"
This voice made everyone sitting under the flagpole wake up. The people standing guard at the four corners also came running over. Seeing this scene, Mang Shen was so frightened that he quickly stood in front of Lord Xinling, but Lord Xinling secretly held him back.
Lord Xinling saluted the soldiers who gathered around him with folded hands: "My heroes, my heroes, please sit down and talk. Sit down and talk!" Then he walked to the flagpole, knelt down on his knees, pulled out the sword from its sheath, and laid it horizontally. On the lap. Xiaosi also waved his hands repeatedly: "Sit down, sit down, you can see it!" Then the soldiers who came and followed him knelt down in front of Lord Xinling one by one, while Xiaosi knelt down beside Lord Xinling.
Seeing this, Mang Shen asked the five guards who followed him to disperse their guard, and he and Erhei stood behind Lord Xinling.
Lord Xinling asked the ten people one by one their names, where they came from, and their family circumstances. After chatting, Lord Xinling seemed to ask casually: "Have you seen the ditch behind the camp? It's okay for pedestrians, but cars can't get through. The army is approaching. Not only the soldiers have to cross the river, but the baggage must also cross. , otherwise what are you going to eat! Friends, can you think of a way to build a bridge across the river!"
Xiaosi frowned and said: "If it's just to contribute, I'll be fine. But building a bridge is a craft job, and it can't be done without craftsmanship and tools. The craftsman battalion didn't come with us, otherwise..."
Lord Xinling said: "There is a work camp in the army, but if we had given the order directly and passed down the orders from level to level, the army would have arrived long ago. If any of them knows anyone from the work camp, just take out a bridge-building partner and come over quickly."
Xiaosi nodded and asked the people around him: "Do you know anyone from the work camp?"
A soldier said: "Wang Laosan is a craftsman, and his father is a carpenter. He should know how to build bridges."
Xiaosi said: "Go and call Wang Laosan and tell him that Fourth Brother invites him, ah no, Mr. Xinling invites him!"
The soldier agreed and went.
Lord Xinling chatted with everyone for a while, and then the soldier came with a young man. The young man met Lord Xinling and said, "Wang Laosan, please flatter me!" and stood aside with his hands down.
Lord Xinling asked: "Are you familiar with the former military industrial camp bridge soldiers?"
Wang Laosan said: "My father is right there!"
Lord Xinling said: "You go to the front to greet your father. When you see your father, tell Lord Xinling to dispatch the bridge soldiers to rush forward to build the bridge." He then took off a jade pendant from his belt and said, "The camp secretary wants to ask, Just show him this jade pendant. Can you ride a horse?... General Mang, please untie Zuocheng and give it to this strong man."
This conversation shocked Mang Shen. He could hardly believe that such an operation was possible in the military. When he heard Lord Xinling calling him, he had not yet fully recovered from the shock. He almost subconsciously led Wang Laosan out of the camp and to the car. He untied his left collar and handed it to Lao San to watch him lead the horse. After the river, he rode his horse and galloped away.
When Mang Shen returned to the camp, Erhei was already sitting next to Lord Xinling holding a yue. Several guards who had been dismissed by Mang Shen also gathered in the circle. It seemed that Lord Xinling had just received a new one. instruction. Mang Shen had a feeling of rejection and felt that this army had become so unfamiliar. He sat down next to Er Hei at a loss, feeling that his status had suddenly dropped a lot.
Lord Xinling looked at Mang Shen and said, "Young general, just now the brothers were talking about how to greet the army by the river. I wonder what you can give me, young general?"
Mang Shen couldn't remember it all at once, and responded blankly: "I respectfully follow the orders of the young master!"
Lord Xinling said: "The army is coming from afar, and they don't know how the camp is set up here, so chaos is inevitable. The young general has been familiar with military affairs for a long time, and he must be able to teach me!"
After Mang Shen heard what Lord Xin Ling said, he suddenly understood and said: "This is still the method of camping in the army. The front army sends military envoys to greet them. After meeting the requirements of each army, the envoys will be introduced into the camp."
"Who is in charge of this camp?"
"The army is headed by a military governor. There is no military governor in the Death Battalion, and all the Jiefulu are in the hands of the Jiefuling."
"If we go to the camp to ask for orders, we will have to work for General Mang and Doctor Jin. Why don't we just do it here and set up camp! Please teach me, young general!"
Mang Shen felt very embarrassed. He felt that doing so was against military discipline, and he could not evade Lord Xinling's diligence. He murmured: "If it doesn't match..., how can we identify the troops..."
Xiaosi said: "Just report your home address! Check again!"
Lord Xinling praised: "What a good idea! Follow power in a hurry, that's it! The generals on each side should all recognize it. Let them each choose two military envoys to stay and hand over the troops to the military governor. Fourth brother, You call all the brothers who are encamped, and when the time comes, each will lead his own camp to his own camp... What do you think, young general?"
Mang Shen said: "Although I know everything, but I have no rules, how can I give orders?"
Lord Xinling thought for a while and said to Erhei: "You hold the yue and follow the young general." Then he turned to Mang Shen: "I will give orders on behalf of the general. What do you think, young general?"
Mang Shen said helplessly: "I obey you, Sir!"
Lord Xinling said: "It is the most important responsibility to identify the generals, so be careful with the young generals!"
Hearing this, Mang Shen could only restrain his expression and said with emotion: "How dare you not do your best!"
As expected, Xiaosi had great magical powers, and he attracted people from every camp, either two or three, or whatever. Wang Laosan, who rode on horseback to meet the front army, did not disgrace his mission and pulled up a complete bridge pawn. When Wang Laosan rode his horse back to tell Lord Xinling, he could not suppress the pride on his face: "I can show my face in front of Lord Xinling today!" The bridge pawns who arrived later took less than a moment to set up the bridge plank over the narrow ditch.
Mr. Xinling was by the river, watching the bridge workers building the bridge, and asking Wang Laosan what was going on after arriving at the work camp. When he learned that the Gonggong Secretary heard that it was Lord Xinling who was dispatching troops, he sent out the bridge soldiers without any hesitation, Lord Xinling had a faint smile on his face.
After the bridge workers finished building the bridge, people and vehicles crossed the river together from the bridge deck. Xinling Jun stood beside the bridge and crossed his hands in salute. All the bridge workers were led by Mang Shen and handed over to the military soldiers building the front camp. After being taken to the camp, he straightened up.
It's getting darker. Lord Xinling was about to give the order to raise the fire when he heard the sound of horse hooves and the rumble of carriages from the other side of the camp. When he looked intently, it was Mang Mao and Jin Bi who came leading a group of soldiers. Behind the cars of Mang Mao and Jin Bi, there was another car, and on the left side of the car was Zhang Noi. Although the dusk was dim and his face could not be seen clearly from a distance, Lord Xinling still recognized him from his figure at a glance and hurriedly walked towards the convoy.
When the people in the car saw Mr. Xinling approaching, they also stopped and stood with their hands folded. Lord Xinling hurriedly returned the gift and went straight to Zhang Noi who was standing at the end: "Zhang Qing, Zhang Qing, you... you wait, we are finally here!"
