Chapter 6 Yueqi Captain
(《》)
Chen Kefu had already asked Yuwen Shu for a complete understanding of the resumes of these officers in front of him, and basically had a general understanding of them.
The Yueqi captain Hu Hai stood in the tent of Chen Kefu. He was not too tall, but he stood upright, with a dark face on his face. There was also a hideous scar on his forehead that had been crossing the bridge of his nose, which added a bit of murderous aura to the whole person. His sharp eyes made people feel from afar that was a war elite who crawled out of the bones.
Chen Kefu raised his right fist, knocked heavily on his left head, and said seriously, "Scar is the bravest witness of a soldier. Lord Hu, you are a real man. I, Chen Kefu, admire a man like you. Come and bring wine. I want to personally to toast Lord Hu with a bowl of wine."
A new soldier from the tent brought a jar of good wine to Chen Kefu. Although drinking was forbidden in the army, wine was often a must-have. Especially in this bitter and cold place in Liaodong, wine was used to keep warm, clean wounds, and the strong journey before the expedition were inseparable from wine.
He picked up a bowl of wine for Hu Hai and raised his hands to the man in his forties. After he took it, Chen Kefu took another bowl, "Respect the real man, a real hero! It is my honor to be with a warrior like an adult. Do it!"
A bowl of wine was raised and he finished. When the wine entered his throat, Chen Kefu almost vomited it out. Such wine was actually called a strong wine. I don’t know if it was twenty degrees. It was probably a little higher than that of beer, but the taste was far worse.
Hu Hai was slashed in the face by the Turkic people on the battlefield against the Turks, but he was very lucky and did not die that time, but he left a hideous scar since then. In the past, this scar was his reverse scale. If anyone looked at the scar more, he would immediately turn against him and fight with his fellow comrades in other mansions in the past. However, although Chen Kefu came today, he only felt that his heart was blocked. A man with iron blood actually felt like he wanted to cry for the first time. He raised his neck and drank the few tiger tears in his mouth.
"In the future, only sir, I will never refuse even if I die!" Hu Hai bowed and shouted loudly.
Chen Kefu nodded and walked to an old man who had just thought he was in his seventies. He had gray hair and gray beard. If it weren't for the strong body there, Chen Kefu would have thought that this was a cultivator from a famous mountain.
"Mr. Li Benlei, I have been following the Emperor since the Northern Zhou Dynasty. You were in the figure when you fought with the Yuwen Yan rebels. Later, you made many military achievements when you defeated the Turkic army. When you pacified Chen, you were the first team to attack Jiankang. You have also come to Liao to fight Goguryeo twice. He was originally a general of Huben. He failed to fight twice in Liao, especially the last time, 300,000 troops crossing the river, and only 2,000 people left. Therefore, although you fought to kill, you were punished by the Ministry of War and were all down to the Yueqi Captain. I heard that you were not on the ranks of the expedition this time, but did you come?"
The old man's tiger eyes shed a few lines of tears, and he straightened his body to Chen Kefu, "Sir, the Goguryeo people killed my comrades hundreds of thousands of hands, I must avenge this hatred in person. In this life, my old man has killed enough people, but killing all the Goguryeo people will not relieve my hatred. I have nothing to ask for in this life, but I only want to die in this vast Liaodong in the end!"
Chen Kefu said loudly, "Old Master Li has a hero in his life, and his family has three generations, three sons and two grandsons, are all heroes in the army, but they are all staying in this place in Liaodong. This is not only your old man's revenge, but also the revenge of the three thousand men in my entire army. Since we are destined to be together this time, let us avenge the dead men of the Great Sui Dynasty. Come and drink, I want to toast this old senior who is loyal and martyred to the country."
The old man drank the bowl of wine without saying a word, patted Chen Kefu on the shoulder and said, "It's indeed my good man from the Sui Dynasty, a young man. I will give you the few days left. As you order, I will follow my orders. I just wish to kill a few more Goguryeo savages in this life."
"Elder General, come and introduce these good men to me."
The old man did not refuse and strode to the next young man, "This is also Zhang He, the new Yueqi lieutenant of my Zuo Yiwei. Lord Zhang He is one year younger than Lord Pojun. He is the youngest lieutenant among my three thousand children."
Zhang He raised his hand to pound in front of his chest and shouted, "Zhang He, the captain of Yueqi, has seen General Ying Yanglang."
Chen Kefu smiled and patted his shoulder, "Zhang He, he was the commander of the brigade. During the Battle of Liao a few days ago, he led his knights to kill the enemy bravely, and killed the enemy's head at level five. It is actually a rare warrior among the middle-aged and young generation of our army. I, Chen Pojun, need a brave and capable man like you. You and your subordinates are both the pride of our three thousand men!"
"This is the old man among my Zuo Yigu, the Yueqi Captain Liu Tiezhu."
"Liu Tiezhu, the captain of Yueqi, met the master!" Liu Tiezhu said loudly straightened his back.
"Mr. Liu Tiezhu has led his troops for many years and is a well-known army for his calmness. I hope you can give me more guidance in leading troops in the future..."
Along the way, Mr. Li introduced that Chen Kefu greeted everyone warmly, and could also comment and praise a few words in time and appropriately based on the resumes of everyone he had seen. This understanding of the officers and the appreciation of the officers made the officers' dissatisfaction in their original hearts disappear a lot. Everyone began to have a good impression of this handsome and excessive commander.
"This one is..."
"I know, this is our young troupe Luo Lin. When the Liaohe ambushed the Goguryeo cavalry that day, this brave young man has always fought side by side with me. I didn't expect that you are so destined to fight side by side again today. As far as I know, Lord Luo is the grandson of Mr. Luo of the imperial court. He did not expect that this time he should not only join the army, but also perform so well. It is really impressive."
"Sir, don't look down on others. Although I know I can't compare to you, I have killed many Goguryeo people that day." Luo Lin looked very young and didn't look like he was in his twenties at all.
Chen Kefu smiled and said to Wang Lin, the counselor of the military officer next to him, "Mr. Wang, I remember that my soldiers in the Great Sui Palace only collect males over 21 years old according to the rules. Are you sure that Lord Luo Lin in front of you is over 21 years old?"
Li Benlei looked at Luo Lin with a grandfather-like gaze, and explained with a smile, "Lord Luo Lin is only sixteen years old this year, and he cannot join the army according to the rules. However, after Lord Luo Lin knew that the court conquered Goguryeo again, he secretly took his grandfather's armor from his home and rode his grandfather's war horse when he was leading the army. After his Majesty learned about this, he originally planned to send him back to the capital. However, the child was not willing to go back to death, saying that he was going to come to Liaodong to find his father, General Luo Feng, the General of Guard. His Majesty had no choice but to agree in the end, so although he was under age, he was an exception."
Chen Kefu read the information yesterday, but did not record his father's affairs, so he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with General Luo?"
Mr. Li said in a low tone, "General Luo is also my boss. When we conquer Goguryeo last time, we were caught in the enemy's formation and finally lost to the enemy. We don't know his life or death, but after falling into the enemy for so long, we may have suffered an accident."
Luo Lin suddenly shouted loudly, "My father must be still here, but he was caught by the Goguryeo. I must rescue him this time, and I will definitely take him home."
Chen Kefu didn't expect that this person who was only sixteen years old should be considered a child's team, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved. "Lord Luo Lin is so filial, I believe Ling Zun will be very relieved when he knows it. If Lord Luo is still alive, I will definitely help you rescue General Luo. Remember, you are not alone, you still have three thousand brothers."
"Long live the Great Sui Dynasty, long live the Emperor!"
"Long live the Great Sui Dynasty, long live the Emperor!"
"Kill all the Goguryeo people, kill! Kill! Kill!"
"Kill all the Goguryeo people, kill! Kill! Kill!"
A majestic sound suddenly broke out in a corner of the Sui army camp under the city of Liaodong. The sound was like thunder and soaring into the sky. After hearing such a howling sound like a shout, many soldiers couldn't help but be trembling by the murderous sound.
Yang Guang, who was discussing a plan to attack the city with the generals and ministers in the imperial tent, couldn't help but pause. After hearing this, he found that the voice was coming from the newly established Pojun camp, and a smile appeared on his face. In just one day, Chen Pojun could make such a sound. It seemed that he had indeed read the wrong person.
