Chapter 1017 Lieutenant General's Escort
The transportation convoy's parking place for dining is more suitable than a market town than a mountain village built along the road.
It's just a row of dirt houses and a mountain village road that is not very wide. If you want to be rich, you will not only build roads in the future. With the road, there will be traffic. Relying on the road, the villagers have opened restaurants, blacksmith shops and other shops, which has a bit of the atmosphere of a town.
But judging from the depression inside and outside the store, the business is probably the same.
Ten trucks filled the entire mountain village road. When Liu Xueyuan got off the truck, the ten trucks took the initiative to distance each, fifty meters away.
More than 20 soldiers sitting in two trucks, one in front and one behind, jumped out of the car, and several people stood in front and behind each car, protecting the entire convoy closely.
Perhaps because of the war, there were no people on the bluestone streets. Apart from a few children standing timidly under the eaves with their fingers in their arms, they were just a few thin watchdogs barking at the sudden strangers.
But when the army lieutenant general dressed in military uniform walked over, several watchdogs hid far away with their tails. The murderous aura faintly revealed on the lieutenant general who had experienced seven days of bloody battle was obviously not something these dogs could resist.
"Report to the commander, everything has been checked inside, everything is safe." A soldier wearing a lieutenant's seal walked out of the small restaurant, saluted Lieutenant General Liu, and reported loudly.
"Okay, let me tell you, it's a war zone now, I'm alert, keep my guns away, and eat in shifts." Old Liu replied with a casual military salute and replied seriously.
"Yes!" The lieutenant nodded solemnly and turned around to pass the order.
Looking at the back of the lieutenant leaving with a submachine gun on his back, a hint of relief appeared on the face of the Lieutenant General of the Army. After all, Liu Sanzheng was not too failed in his life, and there was also an old subordinate he personally promoted to follow him loyally.
If Liu Lang was here, he would definitely recognize him easily. He was also an old acquaintance. Lieutenant Long, a veteran of the Kingdom Army, who was the most outstanding in the martial arts competition with Lao Liu four years ago, has been promoted to company commander and is truly worthy of being a lieutenant.
This person is obviously good-looking. When Old Liu was so down and out, he still followed him loyally.
There was no delicacy in the restaurant, but it was just a knife-cut noodles for the Army Lieutenant General and the beautiful reporter. However, each of the soldiers got two pancakes and a bowl of broth with only a few shiny oil flowers.
Of course, the two of them were about to arrive at their destination. One was about to deliver the important military supplies they were escorted to safely, and the other was thinking that they would soon meet the person they loved. They were not too picky about the food. After dealing with it for a few sips, they were considered to be fooling their stomachs and stopped chopping.
After dinner, he was free and looked at the officers and soldiers guarding the car waiting for pancakes. Liu Xueyuan returned to the car and picked up the camera, and took photos along the old street of this mountain village town.
The Army Lieutenant General frowned slightly, but said nothing. While he was quietly following with his hands behind his back, he waved his hand lightly. Lieutenant Long, who had just finished eating two pancakes with the broth, followed closely behind his chief, with two soldiers responsible for guarding the door.
For Lao Liu, the safety of the beautiful reporter is very important. Not only is she the military reporter appointed by the deputy commander of the Second War Zone, but more importantly, she has a relationship with the fat colonel.
Although Liu Lang is not very strong now, it is not enough to let a lieutenant general flatter him, he is the nobleman who saved his life. When he heard that the old man in Ling Pizhou pushed the confidant who had followed him for nearly 20 years to the court without hesitation and searched his house for nearly one million silver coins, Old Liu's heart was cold.
From that moment on, he was sure that as long as he went to Chengguan City, his old Liu's head was the best gift for the old man in Ling Pizhou to evade the kingdom investigation team. The old man in Ling Pizhou could save millions of silver coins. After all, the head of the colonel-level logistics officer was not as good as that of a lieutenant general.
Over the years, the kingdom allocated millions of silver coins for Lingpizhou national defense projects. In the end, who was so shoddy, Lao Liu knew very well. Under the rule of the local rich man in Lingpizhou, a mere colonel in charge of logistics dared to greed for millions of silver coins? Don't be nonsense, he believed that he was greedy for tens of thousands of silver coins.
At that moment, the plausible words that Liu Lang said to him a few years ago were simply a golden and life-saving idea. Such a result could be expected several years in advance. Lao Liu was grateful to this colonel commander who was far lower than his military position, so he was so grateful to death! He was also inexplicably surprised.
Let’s think about Liu Lang’s achievements since the Battle of Haicheng. Friends like Liu Lang must be made and have deep friends. If not, even if he is a dignified lieutenant general of the army, he would not volunteer to be the leader of the transportation brigade, right?
This group of military supplies was secretly sent by Liu Lang to the first person in Ling Pizhou half a month ago to exchange for 100,000 silver coins. In any case, he must hand over this group of military supplies and beautiful reporters to Liu Lang safely. It can be regarded as his old Liu's favor to Colonel Liu's life-saving grace.
The importance of that beautiful reporter from Akai Castle is more important than that group of military supplies. Although I am not sure about the real relationship between Colonel Liu, who is already engaged and this beautiful and charming beautiful reporter, after interviewing with the Independent Corps in the Battle of the Ancient City, he was transferred to Mocheng as editor-in-chief of the newspaper until the war broke out in the southeast. He has not yet been married yet. Even if there is no substantial relationship, there is still some relationship.
I have to say that this person is an old fox in middle age. Although it is based on rumors alone, he guessed the seemingly vague relationship between these two young men and women. After all, Lao Liu has been young, right?
Moreover, the down-and-out Lieutenant General of the Army was right. If something happened to Liu Xueyuan with him, even if Liu Lang would not settle the score with him, it would be certain that the two of them would be strangers from now on.
Captain Liu is not such a broad-minded person. Although the beautiful reporter and he have never broken the window paper, sometimes do you need to say the little things between men and women? Even if you don’t like it, no one wants to have an unexpected encounter with his woman. What’s more, the beautiful reporter with a lovely fragrance of books is still the kind of woman who likes Captain Liu?
To say that Ling Pizhou is worthy of being a place where local merchants are located, not only this unlucky guy is very accurate in his viewing of people, but his boss is smart enough to overestimate the military supplies of 8 five-ton trucks. Even if it is an arms, the full load is only about 40 tons, and the price is usually about 30,000 to 40,000 silver coins.
The old man in Ling Pizhou was fine. After receiving a telegram from Liu Lang, the lion asked for two or three times the price. It was probably to make excuses for the Kingdom Inspection Team to throw out millions of silver coins, which made him feel a little distressed. At this time, he could get some back as soon as possible. But in order to resolve the unhappiness of a certain regiment commander, this person sent a lieutenant general to escort the army. Even if he was dismissed, he would have a great face.
The subtext is, you see, for your kid's batch of arms, I sent lieutenant general-level escorts, and it would be unfair to give you tens of thousands of silver coins.
The benefits of the escort of Lieutenant General are naturally obvious. At this time, when the war between the northwest of Ling Pizhou and the east of Ling Pizhou, there were shortages everywhere. If it weren't for the two generals on the head of Liu Junzhu, it would be a big deal to bluff the people, it would be a big deal to see if the 8 vehicles of arms could have passed through the layers of checkpoint defense zones.
Don’t think that the military orders of the 2nd War Zone Command are so awesome. When you get down, the commanders and brigade commanders at all levels are the bosses. If you don’t give any benefits, you may have the road ahead blocked or cut off before you leave the checkpoint. If you don’t ship the military supplies according to the prescribed time, they will not be the ones who lose their heads anyway.
If there are policies above and countermeasures below, it is not just a patent for future principalities. This thing is common in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad.
As one of the 13 Taishang Guards of Ling Pizhou, Lieutenant General Liu has a good connection in Ling Pizhou. Along the way, he was considered the autumn wind of no one running a transportation convoy. The old man in Ling Pizhou did not earn more than 60,000 silver coins from Captain Liu.
However, this general's rank scared away many villains in the state, but it has become a hot commodity in the eyes of those who are interested.
For example, a person who is determined to escape his life and lacks amulets.
The rank of general of the Kingdom Army Lieutenant General is so useful.
Liu Xueyuan moved forward, and the army lieutenant general with his hands twenty meters away followed. Lieutenant Long and two soldiers in charge of guard placed their hands on the flower machine guns hanging on their chests, and bent their eyes vigilantly on the hillsides of the two mountains, which were not far away.
