"You, you are... Li Keng?"
It was only then that Gouzi discovered that there was one lying on the ground! He was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat on the spot!
Fortunately, the horse's hoof didn't step on Li Keng, otherwise Li Keng would have been lying flat on the ground!
"Boss, it's me! I planted the mines, and I blew up the people. If you want to kill or hack them, come at me alone! Don't involve my brothers!"
Standing up with great perseverance, Li Keng looked back at his captain gratefully. When he turned back again, his face showed the heroic look of a warrior who is gone and never returns!
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Gouzi was deeply moved by Li Keng, and his eyes were a little red!
I saw him waving his big hand and shouting in a trembling voice: "Come here, drag him down for me. First, he will be punished with a hundred military sticks, and then he will be detained for ten days!"
"Gah?"
"ah……"
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar!
Not only were the young firearms battalion soldiers stunned, but even Li Keng, who was trying his best to look heroic and sacrificed, his eyes almost bulged out! The legs that finally stood up straight became weak, and he almost fell to the ground again.
This...this doesn't seem to match the script?
Originally, the officer shouldn't have been so moved by their brotherly love that he waved his hand to absolve himself of the blame. It would be best to reward him with ten or eight copper coins, and encourage him in a gentle voice?
Why was it that when it happened to me, not only was the guilt not absolved, but the punishment was doubled? It turned into being slapped with military sticks and put in solitary confinement again?
"Ah for what?!"
However, Gouzi had no intention of joking at this time. He glared coldly at the stunned soldiers and scolded in a low voice: "What are you doing standing still? Why don't you drag me down?! You want to be punished with him?" What!"
"Ah...hey..."
After being shouted at by Gouzi, several young soldiers came back to their senses. They quickly shrank their necks, carefully ran forward, and picked up Li Keng, who was too frightened to walk, just like dragging a dog to death. Just run to the camp! I'm afraid that even one hesitation will result in a hundred sticks!
"General Liu was frightened by the lax management of the lower officials!"
Seeing that the group of idiots finally left, Gouzi looked slightly relieved, turned his head, knelt down on one knee, and began to solemnly apologize to Liu Hongji.
By the way, don’t look at Liu Hongji’s desolate and miserable condition at this time!
In fact, just as the sentry post said, the thunder that was just triggered was a warning! It’s the kind with loud thunder and small raindrops!
Looking at the smoke and dust, it is very powerful. In fact, it can't even keep up with a large firecracker. At most, the smoke is thicker and the sound is louder.
And this kind of powerful thunder did no real harm to Liu Hongji, who was usually as strong as a cow. He was just frightened by the suddenness that just happened!
However, Liu Hongji cannot admit this!
If he admitted it, where would he put his face?
Therefore, facing Gouzi's apology, Liu Hongji, who had already woken up, still had a dark face... (Ahem, this is not black, and there seems to be nothing he can do about it.) At the same time, a pair of eyes looked at Gouzi coldly, and looked at Gouzi. Sweat broke out on his forehead, and he quickly looked at Xiao Han next to him as if asking for help.
Perhaps those idiots who had just joined the army not long ago didn't know who Liu Hongji was, but as dogs who had been in the army for many years, how could they not know the name of this ruthless man? !
That was the person who was the first person to climb the Chang'an city wall when he lost his arrow! And in these years, following His Majesty's expeditions in the north and south, he defeated countless ruthless people such as Xue Ju, Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande, etc., and was awarded the title of General of the Seventeenth Guards, Duke of Kui Kingdom!
In terms of official title, he is much higher than his own Marquis!
Such a ruthless person, even if he laughs and laughs with his prince on weekdays, even if he suffers a little loss, he never turns his back.
But that's because the object of the joke is their Marquis Xiao Han! It's not like this big boss who has been fighting for the rest of his life is really so easy to talk to!
Moreover, even if we were to take a step back, if Liu Hongji was really injured today, his Pao Ze men all over the Tang army would be able to tear Li Keng into pieces alive without even having to do it himself!
"Ahem, forget it, it's just a misunderstanding... That bitch, go back and take good care of your soldiers!"
Seeing Gouzi looking at him intently, Xiao Han could no longer turn a blind eye. He coughed lightly, stood up and acted as a peacemaker, and directed Gouzi: "Why don't you lead the way and go to the camp to give General Liu a good wash?" Ichiban?"
"Here!"
Gouzi was waiting for Xiao Han's words. Hearing the words, he nodded quickly in agreement, and then looked at Liu Hongji pitifully.
Liu Hongji was still angry at this time.
After all, anyone who goes out for a good trip and is suddenly blown up into a black bear spirit by a thunder will not feel very good!
But seeing that Xiao Han said this, he had no choice but to give it face, so he nodded reluctantly.
"Thank you General Liu, thank you Lord Marquis!"
When Liu Hongji finally nodded, Gouzi was overjoyed! After thanking him repeatedly, he stood up, winked with Xiaodong, a fool he hadn't seen for a long time, and ran to the front, leading the carriage towards the camp.
"etc!"
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Liu Hongji spoke again!
"uh-huh?"
Gouzi was stunned, and subconsciously looked back at Liu Hongji, only to see him spit out a mouthful of black phlegm with great effort, and then said to himself: "What was that pit called just now..."
"Back to the general, it's Likeng..." Hearing Liu Hongji mention Likeng again, Gouzi felt a chill in his heart, and said in his heart: Now we have to finish the ball! Likeng, Likeng, you are really a fool, even a hundred military sticks and ten days of confinement can't save you!
"Yes, the one named Li Keng!" Liu Hongji didn't notice the change in Gouzi's expression. He didn't know what he was thinking. He gritted his teeth and said, "Remember the hundred military sticks for now! I will ask him to serve you later!" If you don’t serve me well, hum…”
"Uh... here!"
Upon hearing this strange request, Gouzi's expression froze, and he finally agreed with a wry smile.
Alas, it seems that Likeng can only wish for blessings today! I am really powerless!
The sentry post was not far from the firearms camp, only two or three miles at most. In just a cup of tea, everyone had already seen a high wall sitting at the foot of the Qinling Mountains in front of them.
The wall is very high, at least three feet high. The surface of the wall is plastered with cement. Not even a human, not even a monkey, can even think of climbing up it.
That’s not all!
On the wall, at regular intervals, there is a building similar to a sentry tower. There are many people inside, and you can tell at a glance that there are many people standing guard inside!
