Jiaohua

Chapter 935
Liang Jun and Cheng Jieshi's military reforms were announced to the entire army on the day the army left Ningsi.

They studied the military systems of the major forces, and found that none of them worked. In the end, they chose their strengths, discarded their weaknesses, and established their own system.

Before he went to explore the state, Du Xuan had already explained to Wang Xudu that Shen Lie would come whenever he should, in exchange for thousands of soldiers from the Lin family, and this team belonged entirely to Shen Lie.

Now Liang Jun thinks that apart from these thousand people and the addition of the Mountain View City defenders, the whole army needs a new name.

He and Cheng Jieshi discussed for a long time, and finally took He Qinghaiyan's "Yan" character, and Shen Lie agreed.

Therefore, this oily and ruffian army was officially named "Da Yan Army".

Two days later, in An'anling, Longchangzhou Province, Shen Lie and Dai Yu rode away at night and headed for Cangjin.

Years of hard fighting, Cangjin cold and desolate, abandoned and ruined buildings can be seen everywhere, across the village, in an empty city with almost no people left, Shen Lie found an iron raw material workshop.

The old blacksmith slammed it with a bang, and standing beside him was a thin young man, wearing a severely faded dark yellow square brocade robe, with a lychee-patterned belt around his waist, his hair was a little greasy, it hadn't been washed for many days, and his eyebrows The pupils are clear and bright.

Hearing the movement, he, the blacksmith, and the little apprentice next to the blacksmith turned their eyes and saw the tall, handsome and handsome visitor outside the door. The thin young man was stunned for a while, and then exclaimed joyfully, "Brother Shen!"

Shen Lie smiled: "Brother Jiang."

If it wasn't for the "Brother Jiang", Dai Yu wouldn't have recognized the person in front of him. He was shocked to see the thin young man running towards him, and it was difficult for him to be the same as the energetic servant boy in his memory.

There are only a handful of pedestrians on the street, and there are only a few shops left on the street, but occasionally you can still see three or two women standing on the side of the street talking, talking about family affairs.

Shen Lie and Dai Yu led the horses and followed Jiang Mu. Jiang Mu said as he walked, "My second uncle is rebellious and harmed Dingguo's mansion. I have no face to live, but if I die easily, I feel that I have read the holy books for many years in vain. , so I came here to join the army in the Northwest. I thought that if you can kill one person, one person is one person. Unexpectedly, General Li Lang saw how refined I was, and asked me if I could read, so he sent me this job. Then I counted the military supplies and food depots, ran around the nearby cities and villages, sometimes helped to collect food, and then took care of whether the sows had babies, haha."

"Where's your father?" Shen Lie asked.

"Since he was forcibly taken to Hejing, we haven't seen each other for several years, and the correspondence is only half a year. The barracks are strictly controlled, especially the letters from Li Gan, the officers have to read, check, and confirm. There is no suspicion of collaborating with the enemy, so it was sent to our hands." Jiang Mu sighed, "And my father, because of my second uncle, he has resigned and wants to teach, not to mention schools, those private schools I look down on him. These years, my father has been unhappy at home and has become poorer day by day. I have to rely on the help of old friends for winter clothes. But I have written to him before and asked him to set up some stalls to sell groceries. Uncle's reputation has long been rotten, and there is nothing to let go of the face of setting up a stall."

Shen Lie nodded and said, "If you need any help, feel free to ask."

"Don't, don't," Jiang Mu said with a casual smile, "Let's just treat it as...you deserve it. If my father hadn't been the servant of the household department, my second uncle would not have found a small civil servant in the household department. He falsified and fabricated so many things and killed him." Duke Dingguo's mansion, it is a blessing from heaven that my Jiang family has not been exterminated."

Mentioning this, Jiang Mu felt sad and relieved, he looked at Shen Lie, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, as soon as you entered the city, you went straight to Wang's workshop, which shows that you have been in touch with the Northwest often, don't you often Send something here?"

"Not much, a drop in the bucket."

"I couldn't find you in the past few years, but the last time I heard about you, there was a scene at Song Zhiyi's place, and another scene at Drunk Deer? Hahaha..."

Shen Lie saw that his laughter was loose and infected, so he chuckled twice: "I didn't expect that I ran into you as soon as I came here."

"How, married and have children?"

Shen Lie shook his head: "No."

"Oh? That must be because you don't like it anymore," Jiang Mu sized him up as he walked, "When I first met you, you were so handsome, and you were a jealous little boy, so I couldn't get along with you because of that. Now that you are so vigor, It's as if a god descended from the mortal world, and people dare not look at her closely. If you want to marry a girl, you probably won't be able to marry her."

Shen Lie smiled and didn't answer the words.

Leaving Gaitang City, walking towards the outskirts of the city on frost and snow.

Coming out of the city here is actually more lively than inside the city.

Many women push carts and horses to the fields to work on the winter crops. Men are rare, mostly children or the elderly, and almost no adult men are seen.

Many people knew Jiang Mu and said hello to him. Their gazes fell on Shen Lie, and everyone's eyes were brightened. They had never seen such a handsome and handsome man. His skin was white, and he seemed to be able to shine in winter. , It makes people want to get close but dare not get close.

As they approached the barracks, Jiang Mu let Shen Lie go in from the east on his own, and he did not forget to tell him: "The barracks I am in belongs to the rear response team, and I hardly meet the hundreds of thousands of troops ahead. I know you have a good relationship with Liu Zhaojiang, but he still doesn't know I am in the Red Gate Army, I hope Brother Shen will not mention it."

"Okay," Shen Lie said, "Take care, if you want to find me, send a letter to Mountain View City."

"Mountain View? Where is it?"

Shen Lie smiled faintly: "A small remote town, exploring the southeast of the state."

"Okay," Jiang Mu raised his hand, "If that's the case, send it here."

"If I finish my work and still have time, I'll come and have a drink with Brother Jiang."

"Hahaha, forget about your drinking capacity! The wine that builds Tangcheng is bitter and strong. I'm afraid you won't be able to drink half of it, haha!"

Shen Lie also smiled, her teeth were white.

The leader of the Songyang camp is still Liu Zhaojiang's father, Liu Mo.

Liu Zhaojiang has been a junior lieutenant by his father's side for these years. His name is small, but he has great power. He can decide many things in the army.

Hearing Shen Lie's arrival, Liu Zhaojiang, who was packing his clothes, was overjoyed, and immediately led the guards to rush over.

There was dozens of acres of open space outside the barracks, and Shen Lie stood by the trestle bridge by the river a hundred feet away, watching a few veterans smash holes in the river.

Flying snow was boundless, and the shattered surface of the river was like cracks in a mirror, with fine lines stretching one by one, and with the sound of squawking, a hole half a foot long was finally broken.

The veterans continued to expand, the ice layer was thick, and the river water under the ice was shattered, but a fish came up and blew a bubble.

"Grab it, grab it, grab it!"

Everyone hurriedly shouted and got busy.

"Brother Shen, you will be fascinated by watching fishing! Hahaha!" Liu Zhaojiang laughed in his voice.

Shen Lie turned around and looked, the visitor was tall and strong, dressed in armor, with a pair of tiger eyes like torches, and a thick beard around his lips, like weeds.

"Good guy, why are you taller than me!" Liu Zhaojiang raised his hand and gestured, "Where have you been all these years, how much pork bone soup have you drank?"
