Hei Shan fell to the ground, and the officials were all pale, but they only saw Chu Cangge squatting beside the horse's head, reaching out to stroke the horse's mane. After a while, Hei Shan struggled a few times, and finally stood up again.
Chu Cangge also stood up, but Black Flash seemed to be afraid of Chu Cangge at this time. He took two steps back, and Chu Cangge reached out, but Black Flash lowered his head and let Chu Cangge stroke his mane. Then he saw Chu Cangge get on his horse and ride Heishan around the venue. Then he got off the horse, stepped forward and knelt down in front of Longtai, cupped his hands and said, "I'm so lucky to have lived up to my command!"
When everyone saw Heishan getting up, they breathed a sigh of relief, but their hearts felt a little chilly. They thought that Chu Cangge's methods were really cruel, and Heishan was actually frightened by him.
Longtai said with a smile: "Commander Chu is indeed brave and has lived up to my expectations." He smiled at Qu Yanzhi and Xue Lingfeng not far away and said: "My dear friends, Chu Cangge has tamed Black Flash, you two People don’t have a chance.”
Xue Lingfeng had already cupped his hands and said: "Commander Chu has great methods, I admire him very much!"
Longtai nodded slightly and said, "Publish my decree and grant Chu Cangge the title of champion general and a reward of three hundred taels of gold."
Chu Cangge immediately thanked him.
Previously, Chu Cangge was a fourth-grade general, but this champion general was already a third-grade general, which could be regarded as a promotion to the first level.
As the sun set, Longtai said: "I called a few of you here today. I want to see what you are capable of. Chu Cangge tamed the BMW in the first battle, but I can't see what the other two are capable of." He paused for a moment. , then said: "You three will stay in Pinglin tonight and go hunting tomorrow. I will assign a team of horses to each of you. Qu Yanzhi and Xue Lingfeng. If you fail to tame the horses today, I will hunt tomorrow. I will take a look at your methods. .”
The ministers thought that after the three generals tamed their horses, they would rush back to the camp immediately, but they did not want to be left behind by Longtai.
Sima Lan seemed to want to say something, but Longtai had already said: "Old Duke, this Autumn Hunting is to show the might of our great Chu. These three people are all our great Chu generals. They will join me in my Autumn Hunting tomorrow. What do you think?" "
The emperor has already spoken, and it is reasonable. If Sima Lan objects at this time, it seems that he intends to go against the emperor. Sima Lan can only hold his hands and say: "Everything will be in accordance with the will of the emperor."
"Chu Cangge, I am very pleased that you succeeded in taming the horse today." Longtai stood up and said with a smile: "You will personally guard my tent tonight."
The ministers were startled again, thinking to themselves that no ministers could approach the emperor's tent, but Chu Cangge was asked to go on duty today. Being able to protect the emperor's tent was of course a great honor for a general. It seemed that The emperor admired Chu Cangge very much and gave him such an honor.
Some people even thought that the emperor did not want to show favor to Chu Cangge and win over him.
Chu Cangge was obviously a little surprised. He was stunned for a moment, glanced at Sima Lan with a vague look, but still knelt down and thanked: "I obey the order and thank you!"
"My dear friends, it's getting late. Let's all go and have a rest first." Longtai said with a pleasant look, "I'll go hunting in the forest tomorrow." Without saying much, he left. Chu Cangge had to guard the emperor's tent tonight, so he could only He left with the emperor.
Although everything seemed calm, Qining always felt that something was wrong, but what exactly was wrong, he couldn't tell for a while.
Back in the tent, someone brought dinner. After dinner, it was already getting late. He practiced internal energy for a while in the tent. He heard a strange sound coming from outside the tent. He stepped forward and opened the tent door, only to see A soldier stood outside the tent, a little strange. He looked carefully, but his color changed slightly, and he was surprised: "Commander Chi? What are you...?" The man outside the tent, dressed as a soldier, turned out to be Chi, the commander of the Guards. Feng Dian.
Chi Fengdian glanced into the tent and then whispered: "My lord, the emperor has a secret decree!"
"Secret decree?"
Chi Fengdian took out a very small piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Qin Ning. Qin Ning took it and Chi Fengdian had already whispered: "The emperor has asked that the Duke must prepare according to the decree and make sure nothing goes wrong! "
Qi Ning entered the tent and took a closer look under the oil lamp. The expression on his face soon became serious. At this time, Chi Fengdian also came closer, with a stern look on his face, and asked in a low voice: "Does the Duke understand?"
Qi Ning whispered: "Your Majesty asked me to mobilize the Black Scale Battalion tonight, and we must arrive before dawn. This... what exactly does this mean?"
"My lord, do you recognize this?" Chi Fengdian took something out of his arms, wrapped in brocade. He carefully opened it, revealing a gold medal inside. Qi Ning was slightly surprised. He had seen this gold medal before. When he went to Xichuan, Longtai gave him this gold medal. This gold medal represented the emperor. With the gold medal in hand, he could mobilize local troops. That time, just in case, Longtai specially gave the gold medal to Qining. Prepare for unexpected events.
Later, Longtai found an opportunity to take the gold medal back, but Qi Ning knew the gold medal, and his heart was even more awe-inspiring when he saw the gold medal.
"Your Majesty's secret decree is that the Duke will leave the camp secretly tonight, and don't let anyone discover your whereabouts." Chi Fengdian lowered his voice and said, "General, I have arranged horses twenty miles due east. After the Duke leaves the camp, , I can only ask you to walk twenty miles, and when you see the horses, you can ride to the Black Scale Camp. Your Majesty’s wish is that the soldiers and horses sent by the Duke must be loyal and obey the Duke’s orders. They must all be brave and elite soldiers who can cope with any eventuality."
Qi Ning never expected that Chi Fengdian would suddenly bring Longtai's secret order tonight, let alone that Longtai would secretly order him to be transferred to the Black Scale Camp.
He knew very well that this matter was of great importance. Although the Black Scale Battalion was commanded by himself, it also belonged to the capital's garrison. Without the emperor's will, mobilizing troops easily was tantamount to treason.
If there was no gold medal and Chi Fengdian just brought a note, Qi Ningwan would not easily mobilize his troops. But with the gold medal here, it would naturally not be fake. He hesitated and took the gold medal from Chi Fengdian. , asked in a low voice: "Commander Chi, what happened? Are you saying something unexpected will happen to Ping Lin Qiu Shou? Where do you start talking about this unexpected event?"
"My lord, I don't even know the specific details." Chi Fengdian said, "Since it's the emperor's will, it's fine that the lord follows it." After a slight pause, he said softly: "The lord has transferred the black After Lin Camp, we are in ambush ten miles due east." He took out an arrow from his body, but the arrow was attached with a very thin bamboo tube. Qining was a little confused. Chi Fengdian explained: "This is a ringing arrow. , shot out into the sky, and the sound of the sound could be heard ten miles away."
Qi Ning understood and said: "The Black Scale Battalion is ambushing ten miles to the east. Once it hears a sounding arrow from Pinglin, will it come immediately?"
"Exactly." Chi Fengdian nodded and said: "This is all explained by the emperor himself. Duke and humble generals should not stay here for a long time. Everything depends on you. When leaving the camp, the Duke must not let anyone see him. Come on, with the Duke's martial arts, this is not a difficult task." He cupped his hands, turned around and left without saying another word.
Qi Ning held the gold medal and felt that what had just happened was quite unbelievable.
According to Chi Fengdian, the Black Scale Camp was transferred to prevent accidents in Pinglin Qiu Shou. However, there are thousands of soldiers and horses guarding here, and Pinglin has always been a forbidden area, so what kind of accidents can happen
Could it be that Longtai discovered something was wrong, so he took precautions and took precautions
But since Longtai has a secret purpose and a gold medal in hand. Of course he was duty-bound and immediately blew out the oil lamp, but instead of leaving the tent door, he used a cold blade to open a gap in the back of the tent and left from the back.
There were many people in the camp, and although it was silent at the moment and all the ministers were staying in their own tents, no one could guarantee that their tents would be monitored.
With Qin Ning's martial arts, it was not difficult to leave the camp quietly.
Although the periphery of Pinglin has been sealed off, there is absolutely no way it can be done without any gaps. Like a ghost, Qi Ning quietly left the camp and headed towards the capital. Along the way, he saw patrolling cavalry coming and going. The defense is not lax.
The moonlight was dim. It took Qining a while to finally escape from the heavily guarded Pinglin. He looked back at Pinglin. It was calm, but Qining knew very well that beneath the seemingly calm surface, there was an undercurrent.
Qining secretly left Pinglin, naturally no one knew about it.
Chu Cangge got the emperor's special order tonight and personally guarded outside the emperor's tent. He was wearing armor and had a sword on his waist. He was unsmiling and his iron-blooded temperament made it difficult for people to feel close to him. fear.
"Commander Chu, I'm going to have to work hard for you tonight." Chu Cangge heard a voice coming from beside him and turned to look over, only to see Chi Fengdian walking over with a smile.
Although Chu Cangge was quite cold and arrogant at heart, he also knew that Chi Fengdian was the commander of the Guards and had a special status. He bowed his hand to Chi Fengdian and said: "It is a great honor for Chu to be on duty for the emperor, and it is also the emperor's. The grace is nothing to mention hard work.”
"Not bad, not bad." Chi Fengdian said with a smile: "It seems that the emperor appreciates Commander Chu very much. If Commander Chu is promoted in the future, he should take more care of him."
Chu Cangge also knew a little about Chi Fengdian. He heard that this man was quite tactful. When he heard what he said, he just smiled lightly and said nothing.
At this moment, I heard a voice coming from behind: "Commander Chi, the emperor is calling you over."
Chi Fengdian turned around and saw Liu Jin, the eunuch general who was accompanying him, coming this way. He immediately said: "Commander Chu, the emperor has summoned me. I will go over first." Without saying much, he went to the emperor's tent. Chu Cangge He glanced at the splendid big tent, thoughtfully, but soon put his hand on his saber and patrolled around the big tent.
Not long after, he saw Chi Fengdian hurried over and waved to Chu Cangge. Chu Cangge was a little confused, but he still approached and asked in a low voice: "Commander Chi, do you have any advice?"
"Commander Chu, get ready." Chi Fengdian whispered: "The emperor wants to hunt, and he has ordered us to accompany him."
"Hunting?" Chu Cangge was a little surprised and looked up at the sky: "Commander Chi, it's almost midnight. Are you going to hunt at this time?"
Chi Fengdian sighed: "The emperor said that there are many people in the daytime, and it is a rule that it is not comfortable to hunt. It just so happens that while everyone is sleeping, let's go into the forest and see if we can catch prey." He smiled and said: "Commander Chu, you showed off your skills today. The emperor appreciates it very much. He brought you along for hunting in the middle of the night. It is really a great kindness of the emperor!"
