A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Page 481

Di Renjie took out another pair of gloves and scarf, "Shigong, these gloves and scarves are hand-woven by Shi's mother, I don't know if they fit well, Shigong, let's try."

"That kid is always so good at doing things." While lamenting that Fang Xuanling's gloves fit well, "He will not give some expensive things, but always give some inconspicuous things that people can't refuse. This filial piety The old man accepted it."

Di Renjie laughed, "It's cold in winter, and writing with gloves on weekdays won't make your fingers too cold."

"Gloves, I've seen Gu Qing wear them in Zhongshu Province before." Fang Xuanling took them off again while talking.

"Master." Di Renjie said again, "these gloves have already been sold in Chang'an, and they are all woven by the women in the village. They cost ten yuan a pair, and the master also decided that all the officials in Chang'an will give a pair, anyway. Things that are worthless will not attract people's words."

"Wu Mei is impeccable in her work, and she manages the family calmly." Fang Xuanling nodded with satisfaction, "It is the kid's good fortune that Gu Qing was able to marry her."

"It's the kid's blessing to have a teacher, and it's also the teacher's blessing."

"The old man didn't teach Gu Qing too many things, but he himself was tactful, but the hostility in his heart couldn't be erased." Fang Xuanling said solemnly, "He's still young, I hope he doesn't worry about it. The demon covered his eyes and walked on the road of no return."

"Master said..."

"Di Renjie, Gu Qing is a double-edged sword. His abilities are enough to be the best in the entire Central Plains, and his firearms are invincible in the battlefield." Fang Xuanling looked worried, "I don't want to see the blood of the children of the Central Plains in the Central Plains again." Flowing on the ground, there is always something in Gu Qing's heart that cannot be explained."

"For so many years, students have also felt this way." Di Renjie said, "Teachers build academies, open factories, and set up business channels. They have no kindness in the eyes of teachers of foreign races. Everyone thinks it’s too early to open the sea trade, but the teacher doesn’t want to miss it.”

Di Renjie didn't say anything about Gu Qing's plan in the country of Japan, which would lead to corpses of the country of Japan being strewn all over the place.

Seeing that Fang Xuanling said nothing more, Di Renjie bowed and left.

Feeling the warmth brought by the hot water bottle, Fang Xuanling picked up the pen and put it down again, looking at the burning charcoal fire and lost in thought.

Outside Chang'an, at the camp on Hexi Road, Gu Qing still couldn't eat the food in the army, but fortunately Wu Mei prepared some cakes for herself.

"Gu Qing." Cheng Chumo gnawed on a chicken leg, "You said that Pei Xingjian always saluted us when he greeted us."

"Because he is your subordinate in the army, of course he has to salute you when he sees you." Gu Qing said disapprovingly.

"Scholars are like this." Cheng Chumo threw the bone of a chicken leg to a wild dog in the distance, "However, these scholars salute in a decent manner, so how should we warriors greet people?"

"How would you like to greet me?"

Cheng Chumo thought about it left and right, "Those who are more energetic can overwhelm the opponent with their momentum."

"That's not easy." Gu Qing said with his legs crossed, "Like your old guy, and take out your big treasure in front of the other party, who would dare not accept it."

"Not good." Cheng Chumo hesitated.

Gu Qing lamented Cheng Chumo's upright brain circuit, "Do you really want to do this?"

"Change one for another." Cheng Chumo said again, "Anyway, it's more imposing."

"Momentum?" Gu Qing pondered for a while, "What's your mother's surname?!"

Cheng Chumo patted his thigh and stood up, "Okay! That's all!"

Seeing Cheng Chumo leave contentedly, Gu Qing began to consider again, should he prepare more traumatic medicine, or he would be beaten.

Yang Sheng is wiping the saber in his hand. This saber was given to him by Gu Qing back then, and it has been preserved very well. He also wonders that this saber has not rusted until now, but it has lost some luster, but it is still so sharp, so it is completely unnecessary. To grind, after so many years, I have never seen any weapon that can last for such a long time without a trace of rust.

I wondered in my heart how this saber was made, a rustless iron?

Seeing Cheng Chumo approaching, Yang Sheng asked doubtfully, "What's the matter?"

Cheng Chumo coughed and cleared his throat, "Hahahaha, your mother's last name!"

Yang Sheng, "..."

Ever since, a strange thing happened in the army, many soldiers were evasive when they saw Cheng Chumo, for fear of saying your mother's name! ?

But looking at Cheng Chumo's muscular back and muscular body, a group of soldiers sighed, "It's too bullying!"

During these days of marching, Xue Rengui and Pei Xingjian followed Su Dingfang to learn some formations. They will be able to go to the Hexi Corridor tomorrow, and when they arrive at the Hexi Corridor, they will have to cross the Gobi and enter the Tubo Plateau. After that, the march will be very difficult.

Su Dingfang began to arrange for people to store drinking water, and also sent scouts to Tubo to investigate the situation first.

After resting for one night, the army approached again. When they came to the foot of Qilian Mountain, Su Dingfang slowed down. Looking at the foot of the mountain, he was filled with emotion. The situation was very dangerous at the beginning. He was almost out of food and soldiers. Fortunately, Gu Qing took the lead. The firearms came, and I looked back at the firearms team dragging behind the army. These firearms were managed by the firearms bureau, and no one except Gu Qing, the firearms bureau supervisor, could get close to these things.

Walking into the Hexi Corridor, the soil also began to dry up, even in winter the wind here is still the same dry.

It was almost dusk again, Su Dingfang said to Gu Qing, "Let's camp here for rest, there is still a long way to go."

Chapter 544 Persia is dead

The army is still repairing here, Gu Qing brought the people from the Firearms Bureau to the other side of Qilian Mountain, this is a large oil field, since the first battle against Tubo at the foot of Qilian Mountain, Li Er has sent people to station here.

Seeing someone coming, the guarded officers and soldiers immediately came over. Having seen the token shown by the other party, the guard here knelt down on one knee, "I have seen the supervisor."

"You don't need to be too polite." Gu Qing looked at the people in front of him, "You have a lot of people."

These people can be regarded as working for the Firearms Bureau. Gu Qing walked here and watched everything here, "How many years have you been here."

"The last general has only been here for a month, and people in the army have been taking turns to be on duty. The general will leave here at the end of next month."

Oil has been being refined here, every cauldron is distilling.

"The kerosene steamed here will be used to transport it to the Chang'an Firearms Bureau." The officers and soldiers on the side introduced, "If the supervisor needs kerosene, he can get it directly from here, but only if the supervisor comes in person."

There are still enough firearms in the army now, and if they can't cope with Dashi, they will rush to ask the people here to replenish the gasoline bombs.

"Lucky for you." Gu Qing left after finishing speaking. It is a good thing that this oil field is now in the hands of Datang.

Back at Daying, Su Dingfang stood on the edge of Qilian Mountain and looked at the land in front of him.

"It's cold, go back to camp early, the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large here."

Hearing Gu Qing's words, Su Dingfang still stood where he was, "Gu Qing, General Yuchi and I were here to defend Qilian Mountain. There are many bones and blood of our soldiers buried not far from this mountain."

Gu Qing remained silent, looking in the direction Su Dingfang was looking at.

At night, it was even colder here, much colder than in Guanzhong, the soldiers huddled together to keep warm, Gu Qing also wrapped up a scarf, put on gloves and sat by the fire to keep warm.

The wind in Qilian Mountain is very strong, and the fire is flickering in the strong wind. The flame that was just a little warm will be deprived of warmth by the cold wind immediately.

"Ah Qiu!" Cheng Chumo sneezed loudly and sniffed hard, "It's really cold here."

Yang Sheng took a sip of strong wine and handed it to Cheng Chumo, "Take a sip to warm up your body."

"Thank you!" Cheng Chumo took a sip and handed it to Su Dingfang who was beside him.

"Report!"

With a loud shout, the scout hurried to Su Ding's side, "General, the Tubo people are begging to see you! There is an urgent military situation!"
