Chapter 13 Dugu Gatekeepers and Heavy Responsibilities
Yu Juluo nodded happily and said: "Since Lord Dugu has the right manpower, it would be great."
"Wu San, Wu Si, you two will obey Wang Huochang from now on and must rescue the third master." Lord Dugu said immediately.
The two warriors who had been standing outside the tent immediately walked in and bowed to say yes. Wang Junlin turned around and saw that the two men were tall, with stern eyes and dull expressions. Their temperaments were similar to some of the big men he had seen in later generations.
The dead soldiers trained by the forces are similar. It's just that the strength of the two is different, but it can't be seen for a while.
"Okay, Wang Junlin, if you can rescue General Dugu this time, I will give you a great credit and guarantee that your military rank will be promoted to two ranks." Yu Juluo said in a deep voice.
Wang Junlin was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately said loudly: "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I will risk my life to rescue Director Dugu despite my low position."
Yu Juluo nodded with satisfaction, turned to Guo Shubiao next to him and said: "Captain Guo, if Wang Junlin needs anything or manpower, we will accept it."
Guo Shubiao obviously knew the power of the Dugu Clan in the Sui Dynasty better than Wang Junlin. Wang Junlin could guess the deal between Yu Juluo and the Dugu Clan. How could he not know it? He immediately said: "I will obey the orders of the Governor.
.”
"I'm sorry to say goodbye." Wang Junlin said.
"I am waiting for your good news."
"My subordinates will definitely fulfill their mission!" Wang Junlin had a stern look in his eyes and spoke loudly! After saying that, he followed Guo Shubiao and left the commander's tent. Wu San and Wu Si also said goodbye to Master Dugu and followed Wang Junlin.
"Maybe this kid can really bring surprises." Looking at Wang Junlin's leaving figure, Yu Juluo's eyes flickered, and he was suddenly full of confidence in Wang Junlin's trip. Dugu Changsu, the second figure in the lonely family, was originally
Asked him, he was forced to agree due to the power of the Dugu family, especially the authority of Queen Dugu in the Sui Dynasty.
The reason why Wang Junlin entrusted such a big matter to Wang Junlin was, on the one hand, because Wang Junlin was excellent at sneaking behind enemy lines to rescue people; on the other hand, he was extremely disgusted with the behavior of the Dugu clan from the bottom of his heart and did not want to send Wang Junlin.
The hundred commanders, captains, and even Ying Yanglang under his command will take the risk.
In his opinion, Dugu Moyu, as the general manager of Shangzhou, was captured by the enemy in his own territory, and because Dugu Moyu himself lost Longxi City, the Jincheng County garrison was in an extremely unfavorable situation. This is Dugu Moyu.
Mo Yu, the civil and military officials in the court were afraid of the power of the Dugu family and did not dare to speak to the emperor. Otherwise, not only would he be labeled a traitor, but his family would also be implicated.
Such a useless waste did not commit suicide to thank the country. In fact, Yu Juluo did not want to rescue him at all, but the conditions agreed by the Dugu family this time were too generous, but even so, he did not want to try his best. Therefore, this matter was settled.
Come to Wang Junlin, the little fire chief.
Next to him, Dugu Changsu also looked at Wang Junlin's back, his eyes were deep and scary, but no one knew what he was thinking. Although Yu Juluo readily agreed, he only sent a small fire chief, and he didn't say anything.
If there was any dissatisfaction, Yu Juluo vaguely guessed that this might be related to the internal struggle for power within the Dugu family, and Dugu Changsu had to rescue Dugu Moyu due to the order of the patriarch Dugu Zibo or the wishes of Queen Dugu, but Dugu Changsu himself was not
Very eager.
"Wang Junlin, what else do you need?" Guo Shubiao looked at Wang Junlin with a slightly complicated expression and asked.
Wang Junlin thought for a while and said: "I need twenty-two sets of Qiang costumes, as well as the waist knives and bows and arrows commonly used by the Qiang people."
Guo Shubiao said: "No problem, I can send people to prepare these things now. What else do you need?"
Wang Junlin said: "Pack some valuable jewelry, and five hundred taels of gold."
Guo Shubiao nodded and said, "What else?"
Wang Junlin thought for a moment and said, "No more?"
Guo Shubiao said: "You go back and prepare first. I will prepare the things you want as soon as possible and send someone directly to your camp."
After a pause, Guo Shubiao glanced at Wu San and Wu Si behind Wang Junlin, pulled Wang Junlin aside, and whispered: "Dugu Moyu, the general manager of Yongzhou, is the most beloved younger brother of Queen Dugu today."
As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Shubiao patted Wang Junlin on the shoulder, turned and left, leaving Wang Junlin thoughtful.
Hearing the words "Queen Dugu", Wang Junlin suddenly thought of the history of the Sui Dynasty, and even a very special period of history in the entire ancient Chinese history.
In feudal society, it is not surprising that a family is prominent and has survived two dynasties. But what is surprising is that this family has survived four dynasties and was related to the rise and fall of the subsequent three dynasties. This was the Dugu family during the Sui and Tang Dynasties in the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
The Dugu family has gone through four dynasties, from the prime minister of Dugu Xin to the queen and queen mother of three dynasties. The Dugu family had two sons-in-law and four grandsons became emperors after more than a hundred years. This is unique in Chinese history
, the Dugu family is worthy of being the most legendary family in Chinese history.
In particular, Dugu Jialuo's life is a legend. She married Yang Jian, the eldest son of General Yang Zhongzhi, at the age of fourteen. In the same year, her father failed in a political battle and was killed. The family declined, and her husband was also jealous of powerful officials. Dugu Jialuo maintained a low-key and humble style.
, in order to eliminate misfortunes for her husband; when the Zhou and Sui Dynasties changed, she personally encouraged Yang Jian to make plans for the Sui Dynasty; she later became the Princess of the Sui Dynasty and the Queen of the Sui Dynasty; when the Sui Dynasty was founded, she was the Queen.
After that, Empress Dugu deeply participated in the government affairs and maintained a strong influence on Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty throughout her life. She played an important role in the founding of the emperor, and the emperor and empress were respected as the "Two Saints" in the palace.
The reason why Wang Junlin knows this period of history so clearly is because he has watched a TV series called "Queen Dugu". Of course, the plot must be different from the real history, but it is enough for Wang Junlin to understand how powerful the Dugu family is.
, and how powerful Queen Dugu is.
Wang Junlin bid farewell to Captain Guo Shubiao, and while thinking about how to complete this important task, he hurriedly walked towards his camp. Compared to the solemn silence near the commander's tent, various troops had begun to prepare to break camp and set off, and there was a lot of excitement amidst the desolation.
extremely.
…
…
At the same time, a Taoist priest who looked to be in his forties or fifties, wearing a gold silk robe and looking cold all over, appeared on the hillside five miles south of the Sui army camp.
"I sensed that the Dao Heart was within the army camp. I didn't expect that the bastard who took the Dao Heart and the Dao Scroll was actually a member of the army. If he never left the army, it would be really troublesome. Is it necessary to break into a hundred thousand people at night?
A large army camp?" The Taoist priest muttered to himself, exuding an astonishing cold air from all over his body.
…
…
"I just made a secret inquiry, and the captain and the fire chief went directly to the commander's tent." Wang Junlin's scout, nicknamed Monkey, named Su Changqing, rushed into the tent and said loudly.
"What, it was not the captain who saw him, but the captain who summoned him." Hearing this, the other eighteen people were all surprised. You must know that Wang Junlin was summoned by Yu Juluo, which is like a squad leader in the army being summoned by the army in later generations.
. Summoned by the district commander, this kind of thing is almost unique.
"What is the origin of our new fire chief? As soon as he took office, the Grand Governor summoned him." Qiao Zhengwei looked surprised.
"Could he be the son of a powerful family? The fire chief's surname is Wang. Could he be from the Wang family in Taiyuan?" Li Xiang guessed.
"That's impossible. Even if a young man from a well-established family joins the army, he will at least be a rank-9 sergeant."
"That's right, when did you ever hear about those young men from well-established families who started out as fire chiefs?"
"Besides, the fire chief has said before that he is a local from Yongzhou."
"Wang Junlin said that he is from Yongzhou, is he from Yongzhou? And he can't be the son of a wealthy family. Couldn't he be the son of a general in the army? Our generals in the Sui army all like to have their own
My son started out as a fire chief. Also, don’t forget, I can’t even match his three or five moves with his martial arts skills.” Deputy Fire Chief Zhou Hu said suddenly.
Everyone suddenly became quiet and thought deeply. Zhou Hu's guess was actually quite reasonable under normal circumstances. The so-called poor in culture and rich in martial arts is not just a casual talk. To truly understand the origins of the fierce generals and martial arts masters in the army at this time, in addition to
A very small number of people are gifted with extraordinary talents and encounter rare encounters, and the rest are born into wealth. This is because true masters have to use a large amount of expensive decoctions and precious secret techniques to build up their bodies since they were five years old.
Decoctions, medicines, and secret techniques are definitely not something ordinary people can possess.
At this time, Wang Junlin rushed into the tent, and everyone looked at it.
"According to the order of the Grand Governor, we are going to go deep into Longxi County to inquire about the military situation. Brothers, hurry up and pack your things and set off in a quarter of an hour." Wang Junlin did not immediately explain the true purpose of this mission. He was going to give these dozen scouts more money on the way.
illustrate.
Everyone cheered, and then began to prepare things in silence. Although the mission was dangerous, it also represented the opportunity to make military exploits. No one in the Sui army did not want to make military exploits, because the rewards for military exploits in the Sui Dynasty were the highest in all dynasties.
At this time, they seemed to be different people compared to just now. The military aura on their bodies was gone, and their whole bodies were full of aura of killing and capable. They were the real elite scouts.
