The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1790

And the gunshots here naturally alarmed the defenders above Song Chengcheng.

Guarding the southern gate of Songcheng is the Tiankui army under the command of Yue Pengxianglong Military Region.

Those in charge of city defense tonight are soldiers from the Ninth Regiment of the Tiankui Army.It happened that the soldiers of the Ninth Battalion replaced the soldiers of the Eighth Battalion, and the shift was over.

Because Song City was some distance away from Kaifeng Mansion, there were not many soldiers patrolling the city at night.Most of the soldiers rested in the urn at the top of the city.

There are more than a thousand soldiers of the Ninth Regiment gathered in the several urns of the South City Gate alone. With this level of strength, there are still ways to deal with any emergencies.The city will not be destroyed in an instant.

"There are gunshots!"

Zhang Tingen, who was still in charge of the ninth battalion of the ninth regiment, was leading a few people to patrol the city. When he heard the sound of the dragon gun by the river, his face suddenly became serious.

He and the soldiers around him looked in the direction of the gunfire.

Regardless of the fact that the soldiers of the Ninth Battalion of the Ninth Regiment all have extraordinary backgrounds, they are well-known in the entire Tiankui Army.But apart from Geng Dafa, few people treat themselves as special.

None of them are the only children in the family. They came to the army for real experience and to gain military merit.However, with the discipline of the Song Dynasty army, they would not be given too much preferential treatment.

If you want to gain military merit, you have to go to the battlefield with real swords and guns to fight.And if you want to survive on the battlefield, you must treat yourself as an ordinary soldier.

Even Geng Dafa, who was domineering when he first came under Zhang Tingen's command, is now extremely honest.

His grandfather Geng Jianbi's position as Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Officials is indeed not low, but such a background is really nothing in the Ninth Battalion of the Ninth Regiment.There are too many people with deeper background than him.

At this moment, Geng Dafa followed behind Zhang Tingen.The whole body is tightly wrapped, and the face is rough, which is very different from the face of the butter boy before.

After a few glances at the sound of the gunshots, Geng Dafa was a little uncertain: "Boss, it seems to be in the camp of the Jiankang Military Region..."

Like other soldiers, he called Zhang Tingen the boss.

Zhang Tingen frowned slightly, "How can there be gunshots in the Jiankang Military Region? And it's so dense?"

Immediately he said to the vice president beside him: "Go to the president quickly and report this matter to him."

"it is good!"

The deputy leader quickly agreed, and ran towards the Wengcheng where Zhao Hu was.

When he just ran away, it was probably when the gunfire outside the city just stopped.

Zhang Tingen looked outside the city and there was no movement again, but his eyebrows were still fixed.It's definitely not normal for hundreds of shots to go off all of a sudden, even if they stop suddenly.

Before the deputy leader ran to the Wengcheng where Zhao Hu was, Zhao Hu had already run out of it.

In such a quiet night, the gunfire outside the north gate of the Jiankang Military Region was really loud.It is also clearly audible when it reaches the city.

Zhao Hu may not have heard it in the Wengcheng, but other soldiers must have heard it and reported it to him.

"President President!"

The vice-commander saw Zhao Hu and his men in the battlements, hurried up, and said, "Just now there was continuous gunshots at the camp of the Jiankang Military Region! I'm here to report!"

"I already know."

Zhao Hu nodded, waved his hand and said, "You immediately arrange for your scouts to go and find out what's going on, and then come and report to me!"

"Yes!"

The vice commander hurriedly agreed, and ran towards where Zhang Tingen was.

"Old Zhao, do you want to report this matter to the military order first?"

Beside Zhao Hu, a senior general of Tiankui asked Zhao Hu.

Zhao Hu frowned, shook his head slightly, and said, "Let the scouts go and see what's going on first! It's not too late to report when the time comes."

Hearing what he said, the general didn't insist anymore.

After all, although the continuous gunshots were alarming, it only happened for a while, so it might not be a big deal.It is not necessary to alarm the military orders.

Wen Tianxiang, as the highest military commander in the entire Song Dynasty except for Zhao Dongting, even if he was sitting in Song City, no one would be so stupid as to report all matters to him.

If this is the case, I am afraid that Wen Tianxiang will only end up in the same result as Zhuge Liang who "dedicates himself to death and dies".

Zhao Hu obviously couldn't think of it at this moment, because his decision, which seemed to have nothing wrong with it, missed the best time to stop the army of the Jiankang Military Region.

Zhang Tingen personally took the two of them out of the city.

Geng Dafa wanted to go too, but he didn't get Zhang Tingen's permission.

Zhang Tingen never really regarded him as a soldier of the Ninth Regiment's Ninth Battalion. After all, Geng Dafa was an only seedling. If a real war started, he would definitely be transferred to Yue Shuai's side as a soldier.

But Geng Dafa seems to be poisoned himself. Now he is quite active in the camp, whether it is training or other things.He seemed to like life in the barracks.

About three quarters of an hour later, Zhang Tingen returned to the city with his people.

He personally ran to Zhao Hu's side, and said: "President Du, I just went to investigate. Except for the large number of soldiers at the gate of the camp in the Jiankang Military Region, there are no other abnormalities."

"There are many soldiers at the gate of the camp?"

Zhao Hu caught this signal, "What's the specific situation?"

Zhang Tingen said: "It is reasonable to say that there are at most a hundred soldiers guarding the gate of the camp, but I just went to see it, and I'm afraid there are hundreds of people. And there are quite a few people inside the gate."

After thinking about it, he continued: "Because I felt a little weird, so I didn't go in and ask what happened."

Zhao Hu's eyebrows slowly frowned, "What happened to the Jiankang Military Region? Could it be that something attacked the camp?"

"Probably not."

Zhang Tingen said: "If someone attacked the camp, Su Shuai should send someone into the city to report."

Zhao Hu nodded noncommittally when he heard the words, and said, "Well, you'd better take my token and ask what happened in the Jiankang Military Region."

He untied the token and handed it to Zhang Tingen.

Soon Zhang Tingen went out of the city again.

Several fast horses galloped towards the camp of the Jiankang Military Region, with torches flying on the horses.

The night was very dark, and the road by the river was quite muddy. None of these horses could fully show their speed.

Considering how winding the road is these days, it will take longer.

It was already a quarter of an hour when Zhang Tingen and his men appeared outside the north gate of the Jiankang Military Region Camp.

Holding his token, he shouted to the soldiers of the Jiankang Military Region at the door: "On the orders of President Zhao of the Kui Army, I am here to ask what happened to the gunshot just now!"

A general from the Jiankang Military Region greeted him with a smile, and said, "It's nothing, nothing, it's all a misunderstanding! I mistook the sentry who came back from the night patrol as an enemy army, and fired a warning shot!"

"That's it?"

Zhang Tingen responded, but instinctively felt a little weird.
