Chapter 1296 Mission (1)
The winter in the Western Regions came soon. Heavy snow was flying and the roads were blocked.
However, in the Han army's city blocks and towns between Shule and Dayuan, people's daily life and life were not affected by the severe cold.
Iron charcoal stoves warm the interior of the town.
Niu Chao was taken by someone to the county munitions of Xinying County.
"The lieutenant is here..." The Han official wearing a crimson official uniform said to him: "Wait until I go and inform the guru..."
"Please..." Niu Chao quickly saluted, then watched the man walk into the courtyard wall of the county yamen.
Now, it is mid-October. Niu Chao and others were ordered to come to the Western Regions to stand by, and have completed the final grouping and dependents according to the system.
The entire A-teacher has been determined to be assigned to General Kangju Lai Dan, who will arrive in Shule next year.
The general was appointed last month.
According to Chang'an's deployment, the general will directly command the command of the Armenian Yingyang Right Commander, the two lieutenants of the Yingyang Musket Battalion, and the two lieutenants of the Western Regions garrison, with a total force of 8,000.
The battle of Kangju is already on the verge of arrows. After spring begins, the ice and snow melt. The King of Han will cross the Chu River to uphold justice for the people of Kangju!
For this reason, the Protectorate even found a Kangju prince who lost his country and sent him to Chang'an.
Niu Chao became a Yi Cong captain because of this, which was also related to the Han army and was no longer a non-staff member without a status.
However, this kind of righteous lieutenant, chief lieutenant, and even generals are not very valuable!
The value is even less valuable than that of a Sima who was a Han army's military farming, let alone the official officer of the Yingyang Brigade. His status is comparable to that of the Han militia and township soldiers. He is a "supplementary person" in the Han army sequence. Even if he dies in battle, he cannot be regarded as a "death righteousness". He can only be considered a "sacrifice".
Fortunately, the connections that Zhushui Ministry has raised cattle over the years are indeed very powerful.
Even when you go to the Western Regions, you can still move.
Now, Niu Chao heard that the Prime Minister of Chang'an gave a task to the Western Regions Protectorate, so he tried every means to launch a relationship and asked someone to recommend himself and his tribal righteousness.
Finally, the beef from the past was not for free.
Finally, it was recognized by the Protectorate.
Today, I'm here to accept the task.
After waiting in front of the county yamen courtyard for about half a quarter of an hour, the official came out and said, "Capital Captain, please invite the guardian!"
Niu Chao hurriedly sorted out his clothes, then followed the official respectfully and walked into the inner hall.
After passing through the pavilion and rain pavilion of the Yanei Hall in Xinying County, Niu Chao was taken to an elegant small courtyard.
There was a faint sound of zither in the courtyard, which made Niu Chao feel awe-inspiring: "Are you a great ruling figure? Even if you come to the Western Regions, you will still not change your true nature!"
"It's really admirable!"
Niu Chao knew about this Western Regions Protectorate.
That was the right-hand man of the prime minister who was in power in Chang'an and the Grand Han Dynasty!
Legend has it that, like the prime minister, this Protector Bing is a wise man who descends to earth to save the people and the common people in the fire and water.
He was the unjust case that was rehabilitated in the eighth year of the Tingwei, and I don’t know how many difficult cases were found!
So much so, there is a legend in the market: There is a mirror hanging high in the Mingtang of Binggong, which can reflect the black, white, good and evil in the world, making the traitors unable to escape!
Even in the south of the Mo, this former court lieutenant was very famous and worshipped by the herdsmen.
So, Niu Chao was excited and excited at this moment.
It is a great honor for him to be able to see such a Han family person in person!
So, when he was taken to a beautiful room with sandalwood, and saw a man in plain white casual clothes sitting upright in front of a zither and playing music, he was blessed and immediately stepped forward and bowed: "The vulgar savage man, please ask the guardian!"
"The lieutenant is not given a gift..." The man opened his eyes, looked at Niu Chao, and smiled happily: "Please sit down!"
This smile made Niu Chao feel as if the spring breeze was blowing on his face, and his whole soul seemed to have been redeemed.
He quickly bowed again: "The guardian is here, and the villain dares not sit..."
"It is enough for a villain to listen to the teachings of all escorts in this life!"
Bingji listened, he was not at all.
In fact, the righteousness of the vassal states and the nobles who saw him were like this.
There are almost no surprises!
It’s really that the prime minister did a great job in publicity!
In the Han Dynasty's rule, in its external propaganda, everyone is a sage and extraordinary.
The entire Han court is even more sacred, glorious, just and innocent.
It is simply the place where the world's conscience is located and the place of morality.
Like the Yi Cong School Captain in front of you, it is actually quite normal.
Bingji remembered that when he first arrived at office, after meeting with the kings and nobles of the Western Regions Kingdom, someone even collected the soil from the road he had walked, took it back and burned a statue of the god, and worshiped it.
It is said that in this way, you can get the blessing of God.
I can only say that in terms of publicity, the prime minister's ability and his martial power are as unfathomable as his power!
"I'm asking the lieutenant to come this time because I want to have a heavy responsibility to entrust the lieutenant..." Bingji whispered: "Is the lieutenant willing to share the worries of the Han Dynasty?"
When Niu Chao heard this, he immediately paused his head and said, "The villain is willing to be the guru, and the prime minister and the great man will die!"
"Good!" Bingji nodded and said, "Last year, an envoy from a distant foreign country came to Chang'an..."
"Now his messenger will want to return to his country..."
"The Prime Minister has appointed Xia Gong, a Ph.D. of the Imperial Academy, to be the righteous envoy, to hold the Emperor's Day, and to return to his country with the Han family edict, read out the orders of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and to understand the subjects of his country..."
"Now the mission is coming to Xinying County..."
"I want to select capable and capable people to escort the mission and go west to the country..."
"After the lieutenant volunteered, I wanted to be the lieutenant, and I would like to be the lieutenant to protect the Han envoy and lead my troops to come..."
"Is the unknown lieutenant willing?"
Niu Chao listened, why didn’t hesitate to do it?
He immediately bowed: "Wish! Wish! Wish!"
Decades ago, Niu Chao had heard of the story of Zhang Qian, the Marquis of the Great Han Bo, who had opened up the Western Regions.
He also knew that the Hu people and the Huns who followed Zhang Qian westward were now posthumously awarded and posthumously granted the title of the Han court.
In other words, as long as you return successfully, you can achieve the merit of destroying the country!
Without bloodshed and sacrifice, the dream of the whole clan can be fulfilled.
Therefore, after hearing about this, Niu Chao immediately used the favors that Zhushui Ministry had finally saved up, and before he stole the others, he took the initiative to clear the relationship and won the support of this protector.
"Good!" Bingji stood up and ordered to the people around him: "You will take the captain down and prepare. When the delegation arrives, let's set off as soon as possible!"
"promise!"
Chapter completed!
