Extra Brothers (2)
"Of course not!" He Dalang responded without thinking: "With your character, you will never ignore the lives of soldiers for military merits and the safety of the border."
He Qi said lightly: "You believe me, but my father doesn't believe me."
He Dalang: "..."
It will take three feet of ice to freeze for a day. It will take only one or two days for a father or son to be close.
He Dalang opened his mouth and said nothing, but patted He Qi on the shoulder.
He Qi looked at his brother and said sincerely: "Brother, I am very happy when you come. I still need my own brothers to lead the troops. I have been in the border army for a short time, and the one I lack the most is trustworthy and usable people."
"A few months later, I will come. The four of us brothers work together and work together. What else can't be accomplished?"
yes!
A light flashed in He Dalang's eyes and he smiled: "You're right!"
Then, he asked He Qi in a low voice: "What's going on with the second brother now?"
He Qi replied: "My second cousin is the commander of the scout camp, and he has five hundred scouts under his command."
In terms of the number of people, the 500 Scouts Military Commission is not a large number. However, the scout camp is responsible for road exploration and inspection and security, which is the most dangerous and important. Most of the scout camp where He Qi was located died, but few survived. However, it is also the easiest to make military contributions.
With his military achievements, He Qi has become a fifth-rank military general.
The old grudges between He Qi and He Qi were untied ten years ago. The two brothers couldn't talk about how close they were, and they didn't talk much when they got together.
He Qi suspected that people don’t need to use others without doubt, and this kind of mind is really admirable.
He Dalang smiled and said, "I haven't seen my second brother for several years."
He Qi casually said, "You will follow me to the military camp tomorrow, and you won't see him. He personally led the scout camp to outside the pass, and sent a reply every five days. It will take about half a month to come back."
"Anyway, we are all in the army, and there will always be a day to get together." He Dalang asked with a smile: "By the way, what errand are you going to let me take first?"
He Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Don't be anxious to get the errand. You can go to the army to get to know each other for a while before talking about it."
...
The next day, before dawn, He Dalang went to the military camp with He Qi.
The He family has always been in charge of the border army, and it is not an exaggeration to call the border army the He family army. Most of the military generals in the military camp were promoted and appointed by Duke Ping. Many military generals were originally from the personal soldiers of the He family.
Therefore, the transfer of power in the military was quite smooth and there was no ups and downs.
He Dalang used to stay in the military camp for half a year. He was gentle and kind. He was much more popular than He Qi. In just half a month, he became a group of military generals.
He Qi couldn't help laughing and laughed and laughed: "I came to the military camp that day, and I wanted to hide when I saw each other, either I didn't dare to say anything. My brother is much better than me."
He Dalang smiled and said, "How can this be compared? You are the chief general in the army, and you will be powerful without anger. The soldiers are in awe of you and naturally dare not get close to you. Now I have no official position, and even if I lead a military force, I have to start with a lower-level general. They don't have to be afraid of me, and they will naturally get close to me."
The two brothers were chatting, and personal soldiers came to report.
The commander of the scout camp, He Qi, led his troops back!
He Dalang was very happy and immediately stood up and said, "I'm going to see my second brother now!"
He Qi said lightly: "No need to go, I'll ask him to come to the Zhongjun camp."
He Dalang: "..."
Therefore, we can't blame the military generals for being frustrated when they saw He Qi. Even his brother, who was so calm when he saw He Qi, did not dare to talk too much.
After a while, He Zhi entered the Central Military Camp.
He Qi wore an eye mask and covered his right eye. The scar on his face was still ferocious. However, his face had long lost its resentment and hostility. Instead, it was calm and sharp.
Take steady steps, glance at the style of a military general.
He Zhi saluted first: "The last general, He Zhi, has seen the general!"
He Qi did not politely, and nodded slightly: "Thank you for your hard work in the second cousin, just sit down and talk."
He Qi sat down in response. As soon as he looked up, he saw He Dalang looking over with a smile: "Second brother, you haven't seen each other for so many years, and you are very different than before."
He Zhi also smiled: "Brother, what's different about me?"
He Dalang smiled and said, "In the past, you were like a sharp sword, showing your sharpness, but it was easy to break. Now that you have been tempered thousands of times and the sword is sheathed, it will not hurt people easily, nor will it hurt yourself. Once you encounter danger, the sword will be unsatisfied with its sharpness."
He Qi laughed repeatedly after saying this: "If my brother hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that I was so good."
He Qi was also amused.
There have been so many things between him and He Qi, and it is impossible to think that they have never happened at all. No matter how they can't recover from the intimacy of the past. When they meet in the past, they mostly talk about military affairs.
As soon as He Dalang arrived, the brothers became much more relaxed.
The main reason is that He Dalang never competes with the magnanimity and gentleness of his elder brother. With He Dalang here, the atmosphere of talking between the brothers is much better than before.
After a few gossips, He Zhi talked about the important matter: "...This time I led the scout camp out of the customs, stayed outside the customs for more than a month, went to more than a dozen nomadic tribes of all sizes, and found out the whereabouts of many Tatar cavalry."
"The Tatar cavalry has had quite aggression recently. In my opinion, there must be a plan. Our border troops must be prepared in advance. Maybe there will be war soon."
There is such news in the military newspaper that He Zhi sent back before.
He Qi was not surprised at all and nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I'm prepared. All military camps have strengthened their training and inspections. The Ministry of War sent new armor and weapons, and the war horses also sent 3,000 more. There are 7,000 more, which will be delivered in more than ten days."
He heard the war horses, He Zhi's eyes lit up and he immediately said, "The war horses in the scout camp should have been replaced long ago."
The Tatar cavalry was one man and two horses, coming and going like the wind.
Most of the soldiers of the border army were one horse. Only the scout camp had two horses. Even so, He Qi often complained about the war horses and weapons.
He Qi was not stingy at all and opened his mouth and said, "Okay, tomorrow you will go to the stable to get five hundred war horses. Everyone in the scout camp can replace a new war horse."
He Shi was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to thank him.
He Dalang thought for a while and said, "Third brother, I have been thinking about what I am suitable for in the past half month. There are many brave and good generals in the army. I am not outstanding in my skills and have no experience in leading troops to fight. I thought, it would be better to take care of the food and war horses first."
This is to be a quarconian.
