The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Zhao Chen actually doesn't have much obsession with promotion.

Promotion and wealth are only temporary after all.

If the emperor is unhappy at that time, all he needs to do is to take it back with a light word.

Moreover, if the official does too much, he will have to pay more.

Zhao Chen just wants to live his own petty bourgeois life and is not interested in being an official or anything like that.

It's just a shame that his wedding to Li Ruoshuang was supposed to be in two days, but he was thrown out of Chang'an City by this shameless guy, Old Li Tou. .??.

"When you arrive in Songzhou, everything will follow Niu Jinda's command. No matter what happens, you must save your life, do you understand?" Li Shimin said again, with a look of worry in his eyes.

Zhao Chen never saw it.

He just said that Lao Li was talking about a cat crying over a mouse, and he didn't even want to look at him.

"My aunt is in Chang'an, so please take good care of your health. You have just recovered, so be sure not to be infected by the cold." Zhao Chen said to Queen Changsun.

Although there is no chance that this gas disease will recur, catching a cold in this winter is not a good thing.

Queen Changsun looked at Zhao Chen and nodded gently.

As for Old Li Tou, he desperately wanted to wait for Zhao Chen to say something personal, but all he received was a blank stare.

…

Zhao Chen's official position was specially created by Lao Li Tou. He had no rank and was only responsible for the supervision of military affairs.

That's good, at least Zhao Chen doesn't have to go to the battlefield with him.

Although there are no ranks in the army, as Zhao Chen is the county lord, ordinary generals would still salute Zhao Chen when they see him.

It was a guarantee that Zhao Chen would not be manipulated by others while he was in the army.

Early the next morning, at the school grounds in the western suburbs of Chang'an.

The school grounds were surrounded by a fence and a gate, and soldiers from the Tang Dynasty who had been summoned walked in through the gate one by one.

He was wearing armor and there were many weapons, which made people feel fearful.

Zhao Chen held the sweaty pony and stood at the gate of the camp, looking at the military camp.

The foal was left by Li Ruoshuang yesterday. Although the foal has not yet grown up, its physical fitness is not inferior to that of an adult war horse.

If there is danger, at least Zhao Chen can run faster than others.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu stood in front of Zhao Chen with smiles, both wearing bright silver armor.

Very energetic.

"Zhao Chen, let's go, I'll take you to see General Niu." Cheng Chumo grabbed Zhao Chen, Qin Huaiyu helped hold the colt, and the three of them walked towards the school ground.

The handsome tent is located in the center of the school grounds.

Niu Jinda is a veteran general who treats military affairs extremely rigorously.

Everything was arranged according to wartime arrangements, and the surroundings were tightly surrounded by fences and horses.

When the three of them walked past, they could still see soldiers holding arms and swords patrolling past in groups. The iron pieces of their armors collided together, making a thick sound.

Different from the previous Detachment of Women, this was the first time that Zhao Chen saw such a large number of soldiers from the Tang Dynasty.

The school grounds are very heavily guarded, and even a mouse running across can be easily captured.

Before the three of them entered the handsome tent, they heard the rumble of drums coming from behind.

This is the sound of war drums used in the army to gather troops and generals.

When the drum beats down, all the generals must gather in the commander's tent.

Although Zhao Chen has no rank, he is a military supervisor appointed by the emperor, so he naturally goes to the commander's tent to discuss matters.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu were both lieutenant colonels in the army.

When the three of them walked near the commander's tent, they saw dozens of generals standing in front of them.

The generals standing with swords in hand, each wearing armor.

The exposed arms in the winter were much thicker than Zhao Chen's thighs.

He found the last position and stood there. At a glance, he saw that only Zhao Chen was wearing ordinary clothes.

The generals in the army are tough and will fight if they disagree.

When these killers get mad, no matter who you are, they will greet you with a wave of buffalo punches.

Zhao Chen felt that it would be better for him to keep a low profile.

If he didn't do this well and got involved with someone else, Zhao Chen didn't think he could withstand a fist from these reckless men.

Let Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu stand in front of him, while Zhao Chen huddled at the back of the queue.

This is low-key enough!

At the last beat of the drum, all the generals arrived.

At a glance, most of the generals are in their thirties or forties.

In the Tang Dynasty, forty years was considered an advanced age.

Zhao Chen saw that many people had gray beards.

Although Zhao Chen behaved in a low-key manner, being so young and the only one wearing casual clothes made him too conspicuous.

The generals couldn't help but look at Zhao Chen behind them, their eyes full of curiosity.

Many people have even begun to discuss Zhao Chen's identity.

…

As soon as the drum beat stopped, a man strode into the handsome tent.

All the generals bowed and saluted the visitor.

Niu Jin was in his forties, with a cold and serious appearance. His helmet was placed on the table in front of him, and his big palm-like hands rested on it.

His eyes slowly swept across the generals, and Zhao Chen, dressed in plain clothes, looked out of place here.

Niu Jinda naturally recognized Zhao Chen.

Anyway, in the court yesterday, the emperor personally placed Zhao Chen under his command.

And then even more secretly...

After just a slight pause, Niu Jinda slowly looked away.

"Generals, obey the order!" Niu Jinda looked away and shouted coldly.

"No." Everyone clasped their fists together, and there was a sound of armor plates clashing in the handsome tent.

Zhao Chen huddled at the back of the team, cupping his hands and fists in the same manner.

"According to your Majesty's order, I have taken charge of the Kuo Waterway Marching Officer and will lead 20,000 troops to march to Songzhou from now on."

"The cavalry goes first, the infantry follows, and the scouts from each department are responsible for gathering information."

"The army will arrive in Songzhou within a month. Along the march, they must not disturb the people or do anything treacherous. Anyone who disobeys the order, regardless of their military rank or status, will be punished according to military law."

Speaking of this, Niu Jinda suddenly paused for no apparent reason.

His eyes fell on Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen was confused, raised his head and met Niu Jinda's eyes.

At that moment, Zhao Chen's face twitched and his eyes moved to the side.

"That's all for now, go down and urge all the ministries to move out." Niu Jinda waved his hand and motioned for everyone to disperse.

All the generals responded in unison, and then went to their camps.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu held Zhao Chen's shoulders, and the three of them followed him outside.

"Zhao Chen, don't worry, General Niu has a good relationship with our old man, and he will definitely not embarrass you." Cheng Chumo walked away and said with a smile to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen didn't believe it.

When Niu Jinda mentioned that he was engaged in military law just now, he was clearly speaking to himself.

This old guy seems to have no impression of himself.

Maybe after leaving Chang'an City, we will have to change our ways to deal with ourselves.

"It's okay, even if Uncle Niu makes things difficult for you, Lao Cheng and I will definitely protect you..." Qin Huaiyu also smiled and patted Zhao Chen on the shoulder, as if he would rather me than anyone else.

"That……"

Zhao Chen only said one word, and then his eyes suddenly darkened.

Looking up, he saw Niu Jinda blocking in front of him with his hands behind his back.

Dark, like an iron tower.

"You are Zhao Chen." Niu Jinda stared.

"Uncle Niu, this is..."

"You two have nothing to do, right?"

While Niu Jinda was sweeping Chumo and Qin Huaiyu, he spoke calmly.

Without waiting for the two of them to speak, he held one in each hand and threw it towards the commander's tent.

There were two thuds to the ground outside.

Through the gap in the handsome tent, Zhao Chen clearly saw the two guys patting their butts and running away without looking back.

The words I said before about protecting myself are still in my ears.

Zhao Chen's face turned dark at that time.

Looking at Niu Jinda, he thought that he had not offended this old guy, so he would not kill anyone and silence him later?

"Awesome..." Zhao Chen felt that he had no confidence.

The rough guys in the army are unreasonable and will take action even if they can't be persuaded.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu were both thrown out casually by Niu Jinda.

With his small arms and legs, he was definitely no match for Niu Jinda.

At this time, people have to live in silence.

Niu Jinda sat on the wooden board in the center of the commander's tent with a golden sword, narrowing his eyes and looking at Zhao Chen.

"Niu Shuai." Form is stronger than people. Niu Jinda didn't say anything, but Zhao Chen still shouted honestly with his hands raised.

"Young boy, neither fish nor fowl." Niu Jinda's voice was quite rough.

Zhao Chen knew that Niu Jinda was dissatisfied with him.

In any case, among the many people who came just now, he was the only one who seemed to be qualified.

But this is exactly what Zhao Chen wants.

Doesn’t Niu Jinda look down on himself?

Wouldn't it be a good idea to find an excuse to leave the military camp and return to the city?

At that time, even if Old Li Tou is unwilling, he can still be asked to cause trouble for Niu Jinda, right?

"What Niu Shuai said is that Zhao Chen is just a young boy with no abilities. Staying here will make Niu Shuai hate him. Why not... why not Niu Shuai drive the boy out of the military camp..."

As Zhao Chen spoke, he felt a little happy in his heart.

With Niu Jinda's attitude towards him just now, and what he said again, Niu Jinda must be angry.

He will definitely be kicked out of the military camp. When the time comes... hehe...

Zhao Chen felt happy for a while!

Niu Jinda raised his eyelids, with a playful look on his lips, and said, "His Majesty said before that you are too careful, but I still don't believe it. I didn't expect that to be the case."

"If you want to leave from me, unless you have His Majesty's order, otherwise...hehe!"

Niu Jinda had a joking look on his face and said, "I don't care who you are or what your plans are. Now that you are under my command, you should stay well, otherwise I will definitely let you taste the feeling of confinement in a small black room." .”
