The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 845
If, as His Majesty Li Er said, leading a part of the former army, Xuan Shijing would not dare to take over this stall. It is too big. There are more than 3 troops outside Liaodong City, and the 1 guard army is divided into three parts. Zhang Jian's 2 people, Li Ji's 7000 people, and His Majesty Li Er's side, there are a total of [-] people, and there are more than [-] people in the former army alone.

How many catties and taels I have, Xuan Shijing can weigh and understand that it is better to find a group of subordinates who are not convinced by him than these three hundred "personal soldiers" are comfortable with, and Xuan Shijing has no time to spend energy to let those former soldiers go. Convince yourself.

With His Majesty Li Er's letter, Xuan Shijing went to the army's logistics barracks. The gunpowder was stored very tightly. Without His Majesty Li Er's letter, no one would be able to transfer it. What Xuan Shijing wanted was not a small amount, six hundred catties , Take 300 people out, on average, each person will take two catties with him.

Evenly distributed on everyone, in fact, there is not much to see
When they arrived at the logistics camp, Xuan Shijing went directly to Changsun Chong's tent. Thanks to Changsun Wuji, Changsun Chong found such a good position in the army. Even Fang Yiai worked under him. Naturally, Fang The seat of the widow was also won by Fang Xuanling.

The elders of the two families had the same idea. They didn’t send their sons to fight. They came to Liaodong just to get some seniority. According to their identities, even if they went to the battlefield and didn’t kill an enemy, in the end When sharing credit, they will not be left behind.

This is status, and there is nothing unfair in their eyes.

In the tent, Changsun Chong heard the movement and raised his head, just in time to see Xuan Shijing coming in.

"Hey, Marquis of Dongshan, rare guest, I heard that His Majesty sent Lord Hou to the camp outside Liaodong City, Lord Hou came so fast." The eldest grandson stood up and greeted Xuan Shijing with a smile.

"Your Majesty has an order. As a courtier, naturally you dare not neglect. The condition of the vanguard army is difficult, and it is not as comfortable as the camp of the rearguard army. If there is such an opportunity in front of you, you must come quickly." Xuan Shijing responded with a smile.

Hearing what Xuan Shijing said, Chang Sun Chong could only smile awkwardly, then asked Xuan Shijing to sit down, and returned to his seat.

After the hypocritical politeness between the two of them is over, it's time to talk about serious things.

"Master Hou has come to the logistics army as soon as he arrives in Liaodong City, but it's an important matter?" Zhang Sun Chong asked, then smiled and said: "Or, are you here to find the second son of the house?"

Xuan Shijing shook his head: "Second Brother Fang, I really want to see him, let's put this matter aside for now, let's talk about the business first, this time I came to the logistics army, and I came here to fetch gunpowder according to His Majesty's order." Xuan Shijing Shi Jing said, stood up, and handed the letter of His Majesty Li Er to Chang Sun Chong.

"Get the gunpowder?" Chang Sun Chong was taken aback for a moment, as soon as Xuan Shijing came, His Majesty even assigned the gunpowder that he had been reluctant to touch for many days to Xuan Shijing.

When Chang Sun Chong opened His Majesty Li Er's handbook and read it, he was even more surprised.

Six hundred catties, compared to the amount of gunpowder currently stored by the logistics army, is really not a small amount.

The quantifier "jin" was also spread in the army along with the gunpowder. Xuan Shijing always felt that the word "stone" was not easy to describe those bulk gunpowder.

The capacity of one stone in the Tang Dynasty is about 120 catties in weight, and gunpowder can be regarded as a fine thing, so it is natural to use a relatively fine quantifier to ration it.

"Six hundred catties?" Chang Sun Chong couldn't help feeling puzzled: "Why so much?"

"This is His Majesty's will. As for why His Majesty made so many calls, it is a secret for the time being. Without His Majesty's will, I can't say anything casually." Xuan Shijing laughed.

Knowing that the eldest grandson's family has always had good intentions for me, when I talk to them, I have to say three points and leave seven points, talk as little as possible, and give too much news to those who want to covet me. It's no good to say.

"In this case, Lord Hou, please come with me." Chang Sun Chong said.

Xuan Shijing nodded, then got up and followed the eldest grandson to leave the camp.

The place where the gunpowder is stored is very strictly guarded. The Xuanjia Army under Li Ke sent special staff to guard it in shifts to ensure that nothing is lost. .

If so much gunpowder sees a little flame and blows up the camp, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Master Hou, did you come here by yourself?" When they arrived at the place, the Xuanjia Army guarding the gunpowder in the logistics took out [-] catties of gunpowder and put them in several large boxes on the ground.

"That's right, but Ben Hou was negligent. Can Master Changsun lend me a few people?" Xuan Shijing smiled and looked at Changsun Chong.

"It's good to be able to help Lord Hou." Chang Sun Chong smiled, and then waved to several people in the logistics camp.

"My lord, what are your orders?" Seeing their boss waving at them, several people hurried over.

"Find some people, get a car, and send these boxes to Dongshanhou's camp." Chang Sun Chong ordered.

"Yes." Those people replied, then turned and left to find the carriage.

Xuan Shijing watched several people leave, stood in place, looked at Chang Sun Chong and said:
"After the matter is over, this Marquis will not bother Mr. Grandson. Benhou will just stay here by himself. Thank you Mr. Changsun for the arrangement."

"Hahaha, Lord Hou is being polite." Chang Sun Chong cupped his hands and smiled.

Although the two of them have been at odds in secret, they still have to put on a good show on the surface, so many people in the barracks are watching.

After waiting for a while, the leaving logistics army brought the carriage over. Two people carried one box and six boxes onto the carriage, and then followed Xuan Shijing back to the camp.

The camp where the three hundred government soldiers were stationed was at the outermost edge of the entire army. After all, they arrived late, and there was no place to accommodate them. However, this camp is not too important to the government soldiers. It is the six boxes of gunpowder that need to be properly prepared. Store it, put it in the camp, this is a real explosive.

"Chang Le!" As soon as he entered the camp, Xuan Shijing yelled at the center of the camp.

"Yes!" Chang Le responded, and then ran to Xuan Shijing.

"Separate 50 people to take care of these gunpowder, six hundred catties, and there must be no mistakes!" Xuan Shijing said: "Without my order, no one can move! Your Majesty is here and you can't move! Watch on duty."

"Yes!" Chang Le responded.

Seeing that Chang Le turned around and was about to leave, Xuan Shijing grabbed Chang Le and said, "Don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet, let's go out in a while and go to Liaodong City to have a look, Your Majesty has given you a new mission. "

"We... two?" Chang Le was surprised.
