Banners covered the sun, gongs and drums roared in the sky, officials were neatly dressed and sent each other off with gifts, and soldiers in helmets and armor gathered behind them. Guo Wei rode slowly in the middle on his high head, looking a little lonely.

When they reached a street corner, he suddenly reined in the horse's reins and raised his hand suddenly, causing the huge team to stop. Guo Wei smiled and waved to a small black and white beast at the street corner, "Silly pig, let someone do it again."

I met you!"

Abao raised his big head and looked up at Guo Wei, then turned to look at Xu Xian, then twisted his buttocks and ran towards Guo Wei.

Guo Wei was overjoyed and immediately got off the horse, stretched out his arms to hug A Bao, patted the bear's head twice, and said with a smile: "What a good silly pig, he still remembers a certain family. He has grown up a lot in more than a year."

"Haha... It's much heavier too!" Guo Wei held Abao in his arms, "Let's go into battle with a certain person."

As he said this, A Bao was put on the horse, and he got on the horse and was about to ride away. Xu Xian stepped forward to stop him and said, "Captain, A Bao is mine!"

Guo Wei sat on the horse, holding the reins in one hand and holding Abao in the other. He smiled and said, "I know it's yours, I just want the silly boy to accompany me."

"Along with you to fight?" Xu Xian cupped his hands and replied: "A Bao is not a pig or a dog. I'm afraid he is not used to the military diet. If he is not taken care of well, he may get sick and die."

"Then you come along and look after the fool on the way. We'll wait for you in front!" Guo Wei said, knocking the horse's belly, and the team continued to move forward.

Zhao Kuangyin passed by Xu Xian on horseback, "Whatever you are still waiting for, just do as the captain said."

"Oh, then I'll go back and prepare!"

I don’t know where Guo Wei’s tendencies are wrong. When fighting, he will fight well. Whatever he does with Abao, he is not afraid of repeating the mistakes of Chi You.

Xu Xian packed up all the steamed buns he had prepared for Abao a while ago, and also brought the bamboo powder. This was ground from fresh arrow bamboo in the autumn, and the bamboo in the army may not suit Abao's taste.

Xu Xian got a wheelbarrow from Jiubao's house and loaded it with Ah Bao's rations. The family's fat dairy goat also didn't forget to tie it to the handlebar. Ah Bao relied on it for all his milk.

After working hard for a long time, he just pushed the wheelbarrow out of the city. He thought that the army had gone far away, but who knew that the rear of the army had not yet left the camp.

The soldiers dragged their spears one by one and walked listlessly on the official road, like a group of zombies without any heroic spirit.

A tall and burly military man stood by the official road holding two war horses. When he saw Xu Xian, he greeted him loudly. Xu Xian came to him and asked with a smile: "Brother Zhao, what are you doing here?"

Zhao Kuangyin smiled and said: "What else can you do? The Lieutenant asked me to pick you up!" He reached out and patted the bag on the wheelbarrow and said: "The army still lacks food for you, so just bring some thick clothes."

"This is not what I eat, it is A Bao's ration. You don't have it in the army."

"Is this sheep also a food ration? I didn't realize it was a meat eater."

"What's wrong, Po doesn't usually eat meat, he drinks goat's milk!"

Zhao Kuangyin shook his head and said with a smile: "What kind of beast is this? It sounds more valuable than human beings. Get the things on the horse. It's too tiring to push."

"As for the sheep, they can't be put on the horse as well."

"Tie up the four hooves and put them on the grain truck, and then pick them up after setting up camp!"

Zhao Kuangyin arranged everything properly, and the two of them rode horses slowly along the edge of the official road. Looking at the invisible leader team beside them, Xu Xian said curiously: "Brother Zhao, where are you going, Captain?"

Go, who are you going to fight with?"

"I returned to Hebei to fight with the Khitan barbarians. Since then, I have benefited from Shi Jingtang. Whenever something goes wrong in the Central Plains, the Khitans will find trouble. As soon as this lieutenant raised an army to Qingjun's side, the Khitans came to cause trouble on the territory of the Tianxiong army again. I guess not

When the army arrives, they will run away again." Zhao Kuangyin patted his chest and said, "If I can have the power of the Taiwei today in the future, I will lead the army to regain Yanyun and cut off the Khitan's access to save them from harassment from time to time."

Xu Xian couldn't help but sneer when he heard this. Zhao Laoer said this with bad intentions. He was not as concerned about regaining Yanyun as his brothers.

"Brother Xian, why are you laughing? You don't believe that I can climb to a high position in the future? Where there is a will, there is a way. Taiwei Guo was also a soldier back then. I, Zhao Yuanlang, may not be able to do this in the future."

Xu Xian shook his head and said: "Brother Zhao is very skilled in martial arts and well-versed in the art of war. He has already become a master in less than three years after joining the army. It is no problem that he will become a general or a prime minister in the future. I am just laughing at Brother Zhao even though he is in a high position.

I don’t have the guts to recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.”

"Hehe... Brother Xian, please don't look down on people. When I was twenty years old, I watched the Khitans swaggering into Kaifeng City. I just felt ashamed and angry. I thought that even if my country in the Central Plains was reduced to a mess, I couldn't let it go.

The Khitan barbarian took it."

Xu Xian hurriedly settled the matter and said, "Well, Brother Zhao, please don't forget your vow today. If you don't fulfill it in the future, I will go find you."

The two were chatting and joking on horseback, and soon they arrived at the central army. As soon as they got off the horse, they saw soldiers holding small flags and giving orders to the entire army to set up camp.

Xu Xian looked up and saw that the sun was still early. He could cross the Yellow River before dark. Now he was going to set up camp and rest. It didn't look like he was rushing to Hebei to fight the Khitan people.

When Zhao Kuangyin and Xu Xian found Guo Wei, he was sitting on a meadow, petting a panda and drinking from a cup alone.

When he saw Xu Xian, he waved and said: "Come on, little brother, silly Zhu'er is already hungry. He was so hungry just now that he bit the horse's neck and tore off a huge handful of its hair. You said you couldn't give it to him?

You can eat whatever you want, and I won’t be able to feed it, so it will just wait for you to come.”

Xu Xian hurriedly took off the cloth bag on horseback, took out a big nest of steamed buns and sent it to Abao. He took it with his bear paw and started to chew it.

Guo Wei stretched out his hand and broke off a small piece, put it in his mouth and chewed it. He immediately spat it out with a grimace and patted Abao on the back with sympathy, "You stupid pig, you can only eat this."

, it’s really hard on you.”

He looked at Xu Xian again, "Can't we give it something good to eat?"

"No, if there is fruit, you can give it a little bit. Otherwise, drinking a bowl of goat's milk will be his greatest enjoyment."

"I have prepared so much good wine and meat, it's a pity that I can't share it with the stupid pig!"

The soldiers spread a large felt blanket on the meadow, and wine and meat were constantly placed on it. Not long after, military generals arrived one after another, and they ate and drank around the blanket with Guo Wei.

After arriving, he started gambling. Guo Wei rolled up his sleeves and rolled the dice himself. The gold, silver and copper coins were piled up like a mountain on the carpet. Xu Xian was feeding A Bao milk from a black pottery bowl, and he had already seen a black line on his face.
