Ji Tang

Chapter 777 Welcome!

On the afternoon of February [-]th, outside Donglai City, many officials were waiting outside the west gate.

Officials with some status were always present, and the people we welcomed this time were not simple.If something goes wrong, even if the visitors don't care, their own governor can put them in a dilemma of life and death!
"How are you getting ready?"

Yao Chang asked.

The governor of Deng, the captain, said in a low voice: "Don't worry, the camp has been properly arranged, enough for 5 people to move in, and all supplies such as grain and grass are also fully prepared. There will never be any problems."

Yao Chang nodded and said: "You also know, Lord Marquis. Although it is not said that he hates evil, if he sees something that makes him angry, he will never ignore it. Back then, Lord Marquis and His Highness the Crown Prince gave out a lot of tokens. , if someone comes, you must not stop them."

"It's clear that you are an official, but it's hard for others to tell. First, clear yourself. If you are implicated, I won't be able to do anything."

Chang Shi and the captain looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.

Fortunately, they have worked hard over the years, and although they are not honest officials, they have never harmed the people, which makes them feel at ease.

"Don't worry, the Marquis is not a person who doesn't rub dirt in his eyes. He knows everything about you at Dengzhou Port. Some things are fine as long as they are not excessive and the rules are followed."

Liu Zhan's words made the two of them break into cold sweats, and they breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the last words.

They used their position in Dengzhou to do something for the benefit of the family. They thought they were unaware of it, but now it seems so ridiculous.

How could this person who has been in charge of Dengzhou Port for nearly ten years not be found?
"coming."

As soon as Yao Chang finished speaking, a burst of excitement and dull horn sound came over.What followed was a vibration in the earth, and those who didn't know it thought it was an earth dragon turning over.

The sound of neat horse hooves seemed to trample on their hearts, making people tremble involuntarily.

In the distance, a black line appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the vibration of the earth became stronger and stronger, like a beating on the heart.

A chilling atmosphere is approaching, flags are waving, and thousands of horses are galloping. What kind of experience is this?
The official who had never been on the battlefield was already trembling a little, his face turned pale, as if he might faint at any time, which made Yao Chang on the side shake his head.

"Help them down, what a dignified official!"

"Xiaoguan Dengzhou Governor Yao Chang!"

"Liu Zhan, Dengzhou City Shipping Department!"

"Take along all the officials and gentry from Dengzhou to welcome the general manager!"

Seeing the army approaching, Yao Chang and Liu Zhan stepped forward and bowed and shouted loudly.

Before the army, Ji Song took the lead. The guards on his left and right had bright armor and magnificent momentum.

Ji Song stopped and raised his left hand. The army that was advancing slowly stopped in vain.Apart from the neighing of war horses, the clash of swords, guns and armor, and the loud sound of flags being blown, there was no other sound.

Everyone held their breath and said nothing. Except for Liu Zhan, Yao Chang and some officials who had seen the world, the other officials and gentry could no longer keep calm.

"Get up!"

Ji Song's gentle but majestic voice sounded, and everyone felt that the pressure in their hearts had suddenly reduced, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s so fucking scary. Are these the elite soldiers of the Sixteenth Guards of the Tang Dynasty?
No wonder the Tang Dynasty was able to coerce the barbarians and win every war without a fight.With such a strong army, how can we not win?

When they saw the face of the leader on the opposite side, everyone was shocked.

Good Marquis, this Marquis who has long been known throughout the Tang Dynasty finally comes out this time.

When he was first born, he was very powerful in Mobei. He defeated thousands of people with thousands of horses and captured Jieli Khan alive.Although he no longer led troops after that, his achievements in other fields were no worse than those in the military.

This time His Majesty sent this man to conquer Goguryeo, which shows that he is serious.

"Informing the General Manager, the camp has been arranged, and all supplies such as grain and grass have been prepared. Please give me your instructions."

Yao Chang and Liu Zhan were even more excited when they saw Ji Song, but the army was ahead and they knew what they should do at this time.

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Governor Yao."

"This is what a lower official should do, and should not be praised by the chief manager!" Ji Song nodded and said nothing more.

"Su Lie obeys the order!"

"The end is here!"

Su Lie was shocked when he heard this and immediately replied.

"Bring the army into camp!"

"promise!"

After Su Lie finished speaking, he walked back and prepared to arrange for the army to enter the camp!

"Will the chief steward follow the subordinate into the city? We are working hard in the army, and the subordinate has prepared a banquet. Please give me a favor from the chief steward."

Yao Chang said with a serious face. If he didn't know about his relationship with Ji Song, he would have thought that what he said was true.

Ji Song rolled his eyes, but still said seriously: "Nonsense!"

"As the commander-in-chief, of course I have to share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers. How can I enjoy it alone? There is no need to say more about this matter!"

Yao Chang and Liu Zhan looked at each other and saw each other's serious smile.

Liu Zhan solemnly said: "The General Manager sets an example and is indeed a role model for us. But after all, we are local officials. The General Manager and the soldiers are going to fight for the country. Although we cannot be on the battlefield, we can give the soldiers a meal." It’s still okay to be good.”

"Xiaoguan has prepared three hundred pigs and a thousand sheep, which are now in the camp. Unfortunately, drinking is not allowed in the army, but I promise that when the general manager and the soldiers return in triumph, we will prepare delicious food and wine. , congratulations to you all!”

After hearing Liu Zhan's words, the eyes of the soldiers behind him shone.

Although many officials came to offer condolences along the way, they were all rejected by the chief steward, but this time it was really too generous.

As a result, more than [-] pairs of eyes looked directly at Ji Song, the general manager.

Even he was heartbroken when he saw it, and said angrily: "What do you want to do? How can you get the courage to enjoy the wealth of the people before you have accomplished anything?"

Everyone bowed their heads in silence after what Ji Song said, but what they said next made them overjoyed.

"However, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, just this once, and it won't be the same next time!"

Everyone was stunned at first, as if they couldn't believe their ears.

"What? Don't want to?"

The corners of Ji Song's mouth raised slightly, with a smile hidden in his eyes, and he said: "Forget it if you don't want to, I will reject them right now."

The soldiers became anxious as soon as they heard this, and if they were clever enough, they shouted loudly: "The general manager is mighty!"

"General Manager Wuwei!"

"The manager is mighty!"

"."

Ji Song was speechless and said helplessly: "Okay, get out of here, what the hell!"

Everyone didn't take it seriously and happily went to the camp, ready to enjoy the feast in front of the station.

"Yao Chang, Liu Zhan stays, everyone else should disperse!"

Ji Song left the two of them behind, but others were envious.But everyone knows the relationship between these two and the chief manager, so they can only shake their heads and leave. There are some things that cannot be envied.

Ji Song then entered the camp and walked towards his Chinese army tent, followed closely by Liu Zhan and Yao Chang.
