Tai Yongan fought a few battles with the veterans, killed a few people, and made some small contributions. He Xiong was very happy and personally promoted him to centurion and even allowed him to select squad members from the new recruits.
Tai Yongan is really rude and wants whatever is given to him.
This team of fearless young men caught two guys who tried to sneak into the customs during their patrol last night.
These two people ignored the city gate during the day and sneaked in at night. Just thinking about it, they are not good people! Therefore, even before the interrogation, everyone knew that Tai Yongan's team had made a meritorious service!
The team members shouted with joy, asking for a good meal to reward themselves!
Captain Tai Yongan had no choice but to think of a solution, but they were in the barracks and couldn't leave without a mission. His uncle's caravan had also returned to the interior of the country, so they probably wouldn't be passing through for a while...
After much thought, he decided to go after He Xiong. So, he put his wallet in his pocket and went out.
Because he was serving in the border army, his family was worried that he would not have enough to eat. Besides bringing him food from time to time, the most they gave him was money.
Every time my third uncle passed by, he would give him two or three taels of silver. My younger brothers would also stuff handfuls of copper coins they earned from selling herbs into his pockets, especially my little sister, the "god of wealth" in the family. During the New Year, she gave him all the gold and silver ingots she got from the Min and Wu families. My sister told him to buy food and not to starve!
Today, this money was put to use for the first time.
He can't go out, but Uncle He Xiong's personal soldiers can go out. It must not be difficult to help him buy some braised meat or steamed buns and pancakes inside the pass!
He had a good plan, but after searching for a long time, he finally found himself outside the general's tent, and was frightened by the smell of blood that hit his nose!
He quickly asked someone he knew. It was no secret that the Sixth Prince had joined the border defense army. Moreover, the sight of him killing a pack of wolves with a saber was so spectacular that everyone who saw it couldn't help but get excited.
So, Tai Yongan didn't meet He Xiong, but instead heard a good show first...
In the commander's tent, although it was the first time they met, the Sixth Prince and the General had a very pleasant conversation. There were some things that could not be said openly, but they both knew each other well.
The Sixth Prince was very satisfied. He had not expected that the border troops would be loyal to him and become his wings and arms after their first meeting.
If the general easily entrusts the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers to him, he should think carefully!
It all depends on time. After a long time, the general will see his potential and he will also see the general's strength. Then everything will naturally come to fruition!
At this time, another trusted deputy general came with a military doctor and reported, "General, can you treat the Sixth Prince's injuries?"
The general nodded and turned to the Sixth Prince, saying, "Our soldiers were reckless just now and injured Your Highness. This is truly a sin. Your Highness is brave, but even the smallest wound cannot be ignored. If it leaves a root cause of illness, it will be troublesome. How about having the military doctor apply some medicine to Your Highness?"
The Sixth Prince waved his hand nonchalantly and replied, "Don't take it to heart, General. It's just a small matter. As the saying goes, there's no friendship without fighting. I'll come over next time, and I'm sure everyone will be familiar with each other!"
His generosity and tolerance made the general and everyone else happy.
The military doctor saluted and stepped forward to carefully apply medicine and bandage the Sixth Prince's wound.
The deputy general knew that He Xiong treated Tai Yongan like his own nephew, so he casually said, "General He, I saw Tai Yongan wandering around outside. I think he must have something to ask you."
When the Sixth Prince heard the familiar name, he subconsciously looked outside the door and suddenly remembered that his cousin from Grandpa Tai's family seemed to be guarding the border. He was so busy that he forgot about it. If he had known earlier, he would have brought some things for this kid.
He Xiong looked at the Sixth Prince and knew that he was thinking about his cousin.
So, he took the initiative and said to the deputy general, "Come on, I'll go check on that kid. You go to the logistics camp and prepare some delicious dishes to entertain His Highness the Sixth Prince!"
The deputy general naturally agreed, and the military doctor had just finished his work, so the three of them went out together.
After a while, He Xiong brought Tai Yongan in.
Tai Yongan looked in the tent and saw that there were only the general and the sixth prince, so he stopped hiding.
He hurriedly saluted the general, then ran over to hug the Sixth Prince, shouting happily, "Cousin, it's really you! When did you come here?"
When the Sixth Prince was touched by the wound on his arm, he was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled affectionately and replied casually, "I just came over a while ago. How about you? How long have you been back? Is everything okay at home?"
"Good, everything is fine at home!" Tai Yongan smiled innocently, "Grandpa is in great health, and my mom and dad are busy with farm work and the workshop! Oh, and Zhuzhu has gained weight again. She's been talking about you every few days!"
The Sixth Prince nodded, a flicker of nostalgia in his eyes, but then he perked up and changed the subject, "You're wandering around outside. Did you hear I was coming, or is there something wrong?"
Tai Yongan scratched the back of his head and said with a smile, "I didn't know my cousin was coming. I came here to ask Uncle He for a special meal! I'm the captain of ten men, and my brothers did some good deeds last night and are clamoring for a good meal. I'm going to ask Uncle He to help go out and buy some!"
After saying that, he took out his wallet and weighed it.
The Sixth Prince pushed him and signaled him to pack up the purse.
"I came here in a hurry and forgot you were in the camp, so I didn't bring anything good. So, please ask General He's personal guard to go outside and tell my entourage to go to the city and buy more food. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask!"
Tai Yongan's eyebrows flew up with laughter, and he responded without any hesitation, "Cousin, I want meat, delicious meat, and white flour buns and cakes! It would be better to buy two more jars of wine, we want to drink to celebrate our victory!"
He Xiong found it funny and joked, "How old are you? Your soldiers are all under 20 years old, their hair hasn't even grown out yet, and you're still thinking about drinking!"
Tai Yongan refused to accept the result and yelled, "Uncle He, don't look down on me. Age doesn't matter when you go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. We deserve to drink when we have done meritorious service!"
The general couldn't help laughing when he heard this and joined in the fun, "Yong'an is right, we must drink the celebratory wine. Don't entrust it to your Highness's personal guards, take my badge, and Yong'an will go with you personally."
Tai Yongan was so happy that he quickly stood up to express his gratitude.
The Sixth Prince untied the pouch on his waist and threw the whole thing to his cousin. "Buy whatever you want to eat. Don't be shy!"
"Thank you, General, and thank you, cousin!" Tai Yongan took the purse and ran away like a child.
He Xiong was worried, so he went out and found two guards to follow Tai Yongan...
That night, the Sixth Prince stayed in the military camp, chatting with the general and drinking happily. They couldn't help but test each other, but they were both satisfied.
But the news sent outside the camp was that the Sixth Prince had become ill from being frightened by the prairie wolves in the camp and could not be moved for the time being, so he had to stay in the camp for two days.
Among the team of soldiers who followed and guarded the Sixth Prince and Lord Wu, there were naturally spies from the palace.
So, early the next morning, all three princes knew what had happened to their brother.
The eldest prince and the second prince were fine, but the third prince was extremely happy.
In the past two days, he felt ashamed and was very depressed and angry, but now everything is over.
He is not the only unlucky one. Lao Liu also suffered a setback in the past!
