My years as a soldier

Speaking of the few days when Hu Jiuzhang just left, Li Muyun lived comfortably in Tongguan.Although he was holding a fire in his heart, he always felt that Hu Jiuzhang was starting to alienate him again, but he had already left, and all he could do was to stay in the camp and wait for Hu Jiuzhang to come back.

Fortunately, that kid Lu Sheng is very attentive, and he either gives this or that every day. Li Muyun offers delicious food and drink every day. Although it is not as good as the old days in the palace, but in the army, this is already heavenly. Great deal.

Although Lu Sheng is annoying, he is not useless.As soon as Hu Jiuzhang left, Lu Sheng had already introduced Li Muyun to his father who was a general.This is a big deal for Li Muyun.You know, General Lu Kuang holds a very important position in front of Ge Shuhan, if Li Muyun can persuade Lu Kuang to support him, then it is a certainty that he wants to win Ge Shuhan's favor in the future.

Therefore, seeing Lu Kuang became Li Muyun's top priority in the past few days.Not only did he carefully prepare the meeting ceremony with the old General Lu, but he also found a few volumes of military art classics to read according to Lu Kuang's preferences, so as to make up for his weakness of being sick all year round and not knowing military affairs.

And everything was just as Li Muyun expected. When he met Lu Kuang that day, although the old general was not very happy, he was definitely not repulsive and alienated. Introduce Li Muyun to Ge Shuhan to become an official.After all, the heirs of the royal family have made military achievements. When the country is in crisis, the imperial court will definitely be extra sympathetic.

For a moment, Li Muyun only felt that he was on a ladder that could lead him to the sky, as if those ambitions and strategies that had been buried in his heart could turn into reality in a blink of an eye.

After returning from Lu Kuang's place, Li Muyun was so excited that he couldn't fall asleep for a while, he couldn't wait to tell Hu Jiuzhang the news, he couldn't wait to buy a few jugs of wine and toast with Hu Jiuzhang to celebrate!

But in the end, Lu Sheng was the only one who came to his camp every day.Li Muyun's seldom ignited passion was also gradually drained away by the ordinary daily life in the camp.

"What kind of mission did you find him? Why has he been gone for so long and there is no news?"

On the ninth day after Hu Jiuzhang left, Li Muyun finally lost his temper. As soon as Lu Sheng came, he asked directly.

"Hey, don't worry, my son. That's the mission of this scout. It's not surprising to wait for ten days and a half months. I sent him to take people to the Shan County area to inquire about the enemy's news. Shan County is more than [-] miles away from here. Here, even if it’s just a round trip, it will take a few days, right? This is only the ninth day.”

Lu Sheng explained with a smile, but Li Muyun couldn't refute what he heard, so he could only nod his head, but couldn't lift his spirits anymore.It's been nine days, and I don't know how long it will take, not to mention Hu Jiuzhang's leg...

When he thought of this, his brows tightened.Even if there are thousands of worries in my heart, I can only hold them in my stomach at this moment, and then put on a calm face, and casually agree with Lu Sheng.

Li Muyun has never been an impatient person, he was sick in bed since he was a child, and he was the most able to endure loneliness.But after more than ten days in a row, there was still no news about Hu Jiuzhang and his party, and Li Muyun couldn't let go of his heart.He found Hu Jiuzhang's immediate boss in Tongguan, Wang Zheng, after a while, and once he entered Wang Zheng's camp, he couldn't hold back anymore.

"Lieutenant Wang, I heard from General Lu that he assigned the mission of the scout to you, and you will then assign the mission to the soldiers under him. The scout team you sent out has been gone for more than ten days now. This For more than ten days, there has been no news, haven't you ever worried?"

At that time Wang Zheng was still washing and washing in the tent, when he saw a young man with a handsome face came in, and this young man's clothes were really luxurious and extravagant, it was definitely not something that ordinary people could wear on their upper body.As soon as he turned his eyes, he made a good guess.

People say that half a month ago, a grandson of the emperor came to Tongguan for a private visit. This one in front of me, I'm afraid it should be.

Wang Zheng quickly smiled and gave a respectful military salute to Li Muyun.

"Your Majesty calm down. I don't know what to call your Majesty?"

"My surname is Li. You don't need to ask me anything else, just call me Mr. Li." Li Muyun really didn't think about these vain courtesy, he waved his hand at Wang Zheng, and he avoided Wang Zheng's courtesy, and went to him himself. He found a wooden stool in the tent and sat down, but he didn't intend to leave without asking why.

"Lieutenant Wang, your subordinate Hu Jiuzhang is my vassal. Now he has not returned. Could it be that your so-called scouting mission takes so long?"

"So that's what I was talking about..." Wang Zheng knew it in his heart, and his expression became much calmer.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wang. The mission Wang assigned was to be a scout, but there are different types of scouts. Wang wanted to tell them to sneak into the enemy camp and directly capture a prisoner. In this way, no matter how harsh the general is, he will not deny this solid achievement, presumably Mr. Li wanted to make Hu Jiuzhang meritorious service, so he made peace with General Lu, right?"

In a few words, Wang Zheng explained the ins and outs of this matter to Li Muyun, even though Li Muyun was impatient at this moment, he couldn't get angry with Wang Zheng again.After all, the person who asked Hu Jiuzhang to go out to carry out the mission was himself after all.

Li Muyun looked at Wang Zheng, held back his breath, didn't let it out for a long time, and only let out a long sigh, adding a bit of self-blame to his anxious face.

"It's Captain Wang who has a heart..." He said weakly, "But they haven't returned for half a month, will they..."

"Hey—Mr. Li, you have to think about everything better. Besides, capturing enemy soldiers from the enemy camp is quite difficult. I didn't limit the time for them to complete the task. They can make sufficient preparations to return victorious. Fifteen days have passed, if everything goes well for them, they will be back in a few days, Mr. Li just needs to wait quietly."

"That means, Captain Wang thinks it's normal to spend these days?" Li Muyun still doesn't quite believe it.

"nature."

Wang Zheng answered calmly.

"Scouts are already dangerous when they are outside. Fighting steadily and not seeking advances is the way for scouts to fight. Wang feels that it is normal for it to take fifteen days."

"in this way……"

After hearing this, Li Muyun just sighed.But with Wang Zheng's guarantee, it can only give him peace of mind for a few days.

After returning from Wang Zheng's camp, Li Muyun started counting the days again.The [-]th, the [-]th... the [-]th, the [-]th.

On the [-]th, there was still no news of any scouts returning from Tongguan.There was no news of Hu Jiuzhang, as if such a person had never existed in this world.Even though Li Muyun was anxiously waiting for Hu Jiuzhang's news every day, the whole Tongguan would not respond in the slightest because of his anxiety.

Li Muyun sighed just now, his seemingly incomparably precious status is so worthless in front of the military and political power.

Li Muyun finally felt how it feels to live like a year. No. On the 20th, he was restless. Before dawn in the morning, he ran to the city of Tongguan to wait for Hu Jiuzhang.One morning passed, no one, even the rebels became extraordinarily law-abiding.In the afternoon, still no one.Li Muyun didn't eat anything when he came in the morning, and at night, he couldn't even stand still.

In the temporary hut under the city, he looks haggard, with thick dark circles under his eyes, and his brows are always tightly locked. In addition to the wind and sun for several days, he has experienced a lot of vicissitudes .

As the sun was setting, General Lu rode his horse to the foot of the city. Holding a square box wrapped in brocade in his hand, he walked all the way to Li Muyun.When getting off the horse, he deliberately held the box with both hands, for fear that the things inside would be shaken down.

"Your Majesty, are you hungry? Look, this is a meal I specially brought to you from the small kitchen. It is all made according to Chang'an's taste. You must like it."

Lu Sheng smiled.He seemed to have inexhaustible enthusiasm towards Li Muyun, even though Li Muyun always pointed to the end and refused to cross the line with him.

Seeing Lu Sheng, Li Muyun was still not interested.He didn't know who to vent the nameless resentment in his heart.Should Wang Zheng be blamed?But Wang Zheng's decision, no matter how you look at it, is not wrong.Then blame Lu Sheng?But Lu Sheng assigned tasks to Hu Jiuzhang, and it was entirely at his own behest...

In the end, Li Muyun could only blame himself.But if you give him another chance, tell him to make a new decision.Would he be able to give up all of this calmly, and simply not even ask Hu Jiuzhang to be a soldier, and just keep him by his side as a bodyguard? In this way, he would be willing?

No need to think, Li Muyun already knows the answer.

Hu Jiuzhang was unwilling, and neither was he.

After all, it was Li Muyun himself who didn't want to give up any chance of showing his face in Tongguan.And he has always known that opportunities are often accompanied by crises, and if there are gains, there will always be sacrifices.These are all as they should be.

But now...

As long as Li Muyun thought that his bargaining chip this time might be Hu Jiuzhang, he would tremble with fear and couldn't stop his whole body from trembling.

People don't suddenly realize what is most cherished in their hearts until they are about to lose it.For Li Muyun now, all he has is Hu Jiuzhang.If Hu Jiuzhang never came back, he didn't even want to survive in this chaotic and noisy world.

After going through one sleepless night after another, Li Muyun gradually saw his heart clearly.

He wanted to own Hu Jiuzhang, his whole body and mind.He wants to hold tightly in his hands what he wants, and he can't separate it for a moment.

But now...he couldn't hold it anymore.

As long as Hu Jiuzhang doesn't return for a moment, he will have no peace for a moment.

"Come back, general... I have no appetite."

Li Muyun no longer had the slightest intention to be polite to Lu Sheng.All he can do is wait, hour after hour, day after day.Other than that, everything in this world has nothing to do with him...
