It was a good day when the sky was bright and there was no rain.

After counting, there were more than 18,000 reinforcements led by Li Duozuo.

Wumingzi decided that if he was seriously injured and not suitable to walk, he would stay in Lingwu County and guard the border on the spot. The rest of the people followed them back the same way and waited for the reward.

With food and grass in place and military appearance, it is time to set off.

According to Li Jun's instructions, the location where the two armies gathered was selected in Qizhou along the Wei River.

Judging from the current relative position of the two armies, this place is close to Tubo and far away from the Turks. If they want to gather on time, they must set out early and march quickly.

Li Duozuo changed into his most majestic general armor, standing majestic, and scoffed at Wumingzi, who was reluctant to wear armor around him.

"Wu Mingzi, I saw you wearing armor very heroic last time. Today is the time to show off, why don't you wear it?"

The small copper stove in the tent was steaming. After drinking this cup, you can set off.

"That thing is so heavy. I don't have a martial arts background, so I can't help wearing it every day."

You just say that you are thin and can't bear it. Li Duozuo laughed and glanced at his slender arms, poured him a bowl of water himself.

"General Li, how did this make it happen?" There was no reason why the chief general served him an outsider. Wumingzi quickly took it over and drank it in big gulp.

As soon as the liquid entered his throat, he felt something was wrong.

How sweet this thing is, it's so terrifying.

"Ahem..."

"General Li, this is wine!"

Li Duozuo giggled: "You only know!"

"No, I just saw that the soldiers brought it, it was obviously Baishui!"

"Yes, it was indeed Baishui at that time. Later, didn't you go out and get a little lick? I'll change it for you."

Wumingzi glanced at Li Duozuo's big bowl. Sure enough, the bowl was full of amber liquid, and had nothing to do with white water at all.

"Don't pour it anymore. I don't have a good alcohol tolerance. How can I ride a horse if I drink too much?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Duozuo didn't care about his alcohol tolerance, and he was willing to do it, and he filled another bowl.

A bowl of wine was placed in front of me, and behind it was Li Duozuo's festive face. Wumingzi was really embarrassed.

It seems that this wine can be drunk even if it is drunk, and even if it is not drunk, it has to be drunk even if it is not.

"Don't hesitate. If you get drunk, I'll carry you. Two people are one horse, no problem!"

"Drink quickly!"

He put the wine bowl forward again, and the orange and yellow wine spilled out. Oh, let's drink it.

Just die.

The two drank a few more bowls. Wumingzi felt that his current state was on the verge of drunkenness, but Li Duozuo's face did not turn red, showing his extraordinary ability to drink.

Wumingzi thought, would you have to come in standing and lie out today?

Outside the big tent, Lao Jiu was standing guard.

After that day's noisy, he was promoted by chance and became a soldier on duty outside the tent of the main general.

What a blessing, so lucky!

You know, this position is a very popular position in the military camp, and the competition is one in a million.

The advantages are endless, the workload is small, easy, and safe, and there is no need to go to the battlefield. Lao Jiu got this job, which is so precious.

His eyes were polished all day long and he was very alert. He swore that he would never let a bad guy go.

When the army set out, the camp was about to be demolished. Lao Jiu felt a little reluctant. He was in his forties. If nothing unexpected happened, this should be his last enlistment.

Lao Jiu was not a military family, he was a common scattered soldier in the village and was temporarily recruited.

Which man doesn't want to leap horses and whip, fight on the battlefield, become kings and seek titles of marquis?

Although he has been a soldier for more than 20 years, he is still a guardian and has no hope of promotion.

But if he was asked to go home and farm honestly, he would be really unwilling to accept it.

He rubbed his heels in front of the big tent, planning for the future.

In the current situation, General Li still values ​​him very much. He plans to take advantage of this enthusiasm and ask him for a job on the way back.

The General's Mansion is so big, and there are even hundreds of servants and divisions without a thousand. There is always a position of the ninth.

But at this moment, a man with a stingy eye jumped into his bright eyes.

I saw a sturdy little man with a rich expression on his face, and was hurried to the general's tent with a dejected man.

Wow!

Where did this come from the thief?

What are they going to do!

Before the two of them could reach the tent, they were stopped by Lao Jiu.

"Hey, where are you planning to go!"

Hey, this soldier is quite old and he doesn't even know him. Du Rao, who is smart, is not happy.

Looking up and down, he was indeed not familiar with his face. He pulled the strong man next to him and asked, "It doesn't matter if you don't know me, you always recognize him!"

Lao Jiu turned his eyes and saw that the man had curly hair on his head and a big scar on his face as long as his thumb.

It looks bad.

"I don't know!"

Lao Jiu spoke righteously and refused to give in.

"Aren't you a soldier from Lingwu County?"

"Of course not. I came down from the Prince's Palace. My ancestors were from Bingzhou for three generations."

Hehe, Du Rao understood why this man was so righteous. He probably became the guard of the general's tent and felt that he was superior to others.

He didn't bypass Lao Jiu's obstacles and just pulled his neck outside the tent.

"Wu Mingzi, Du Rao has arrived!"

"Come and have a look, I'll bring you a big shot!"

The strong man beside him looked ashamed, as if he was unwilling to meet the Tang army commander in the tent.

Wumingzi, who was fighting for wine in the tent, heard his call and immediately recognized him. He shouted with dizziness, "Let them come in!"

Lao Jiu gave in a little and let them in. Du Rao glanced at him, but he didn't want to be as knowledgeable as him.

Lao Jiu looked at his thick little body and breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know which god he was, but fortunately he didn't cause any major trouble.

"Tell me, you are so kind. I have prepared some good wine to welcome me!"

Du Rao has always been a familiar person who is indifferent to others' eyes. He sat down and drank it, and even called it a good wine.

Wumingzi has always known his character, so he let him eat and drink first.

He focused on the strong man who followed Du Rao into the door. When he was in Luoyang City, he was good at sucking news.

The man in front of him, his head full of curly hair and the big scar on his face, all showed his identity. Just as he was secretly speculating, Li Duozuo had already stood up first.

"General Shatuo!" He was very excited and hurried to show him the seat.

Wumingzi was indeed not wrong. This person was Shatuo Zhongyi. Facing Li Duozuo's enthusiasm, Shatuo was obviously a little difficult to deal with.
