Chapter Eighty-Four: God Is Fair

As a former bureaucrat, Yun Zhao knows that for things that are not under his control, he must be open-minded, he must believe in his partners, believe that they can overcome obstacles to complete the task, and he only needs to wait for them to return victoriously.

Of course, if the matter fails, he is still the first person responsible, and after the self-blame is completed, the subordinates who should deal with it will deal with the subordinates, and the subordinates who should comfort the subordinates will comfort the subordinates, it depends on the situation.

Until now, Yun Zhao didn't think that he still needed to be responsible for other superiors, whether it was Hong Chengchou or Zhang Daodao.

The snow was very large, completely beyond Yun Zhao's imagination, and when he went out at noon, the snow on the ground was already a foot thick.

Of course, this is completely related to the fact that Yun's Zhuangzi is too close to Yushan, and the snow on the plains in the distance is not so big, but the sky and the earth are still white.

A snowfall can completely solve the moisture problem of Yun's Zhuangzi, but whether the moisture of the rest of the land in Lantian County has improved still needs to wait for the local report.

There were many people living in Yun's pigsty, and there were seven or eight people holding four pigs huddled in the pigsty to keep warm.

When the woman at the head raised her head and showed a mouth of black teeth and smiled apologetically at Yun Zhao, Yun Zhao's heart was about to break.

"Take care of the pigs and get some more wheat straw!"

Yun Zhao hurriedly gave an order, and fled in the wilderness......

Hong Chengchou was sitting in the big tent, holding a leg of lamb with a dagger and placing it on the top of the brazier for a thin barbecue.

Peel a layer with a dagger and eat it when it is cooked, and this process has been going on for a long time.

He was the only one in the huge Chinese army tent, with a focused and serious expression.

Occasionally, one or two voices begging for mercy were sent out of the valley by the mountain wind, and they fell on Hong Chengchou's ears to no avail.

When Hongshui Heshen opened the curtain of the big tent and came in, the whole person became a snowman, with ice skates on his beard, which was indescribably strange.

"Qiyu Dudu, three thousand have been beheaded."

Hong Chengchou pointed to the brazier without raising his head, signaling Liang He to come over and roast the fire.

Liang He saw that there was still mutton on the table and plate, so he took out a dagger and inserted a piece, learning from Hong Chengchou's appearance while roasting meat over the fire.

Hong Chengchou handed the freshly roasted leg of lamb to Liang He, and took Liang He's dagger and continued to grill.

"This heavy snow has helped us a lot, and it has helped the pig a lot, and I don't know if it's my luck or his."

Liang He said with a smile: "Naturally, it is the blessing of the governor, the last general never thought that this heavy snow would become our arm help, and the mouth of the canyon was blocked tightly overnight, making these thieves a turtle in the urn!" ”

Hong Chengchou glanced up at Liang He and said, "I said before that I would kill three thousand old thieves, but it was just to calm the hearts of the prisoners, so as not to make noise from them.

Now that the old thief has been killed, let's kill the remaining 3,000 people together! If you fall into my hands, don't want to live. ”

Liang He smiled, put down the half-gnawed leg of mutton, and left the big tent, and after a roar, he returned to the military tent.

continued to gnaw on two mouthfuls of lamb legs, and seeing that Hong Chengchou was not happy at all, he asked puzzledly: "The governor won the battle, why are you still worried?" ”

Hong Chengchou pointed to the white snow outside the big tent and said: "It is also snowing heavily when it is successful, and it is also snowing heavily when it is defeated." This snow helped our army succeed in suppressing the thieves, but it also blocked the way of our army.

Suppressing thieves is just a battle achievement, and the soldiers must always gain some benefits from bloody battles, so that they will follow their own officers and continue to fight.

Now, we have exterminated the thieves, but their cottage is blocked by the heavy snow on the other side, and the mountain of money and food is scraped by the remaining thieves, how is this good? ”

Liang He raised his head sharply and roared: "This is absolutely impossible, those prisoners are still useful, Lao Tzu wants to use them to dig up mountain roads, Du Du, temporarily spare the lives of these thieves and prisoners, and finally arrange this!" ”

Hong Chengchou watched Liang He leave, and when he saw that the surface of the mutton at hand was ready to eat, he cut it off with a dagger, added refined salt, and said while eating: "If you are incompetent, you can't blame me." ”

After eating the mutton, Hong Chengchou put on a big hat, got out of the big tent, and looked at the sky and the earth.

There were corpses in the ditch, almost filling the ditch, and the mountain wind blew the snow off the corpses, revealing gray-blue faces, looking hideous......

Hong Chengchou looked down at a grinning face with defective teeth and said softly: "May you continue to be a bandit in the next life, so that a certain family can kill you again!" ”

The corpse could not answer, and was immediately covered in snow again.

Hong Chengchou spread out his hand, and in an instant, his palms were covered with snowflakes, some of which were melted by his body temperature, and some of them stubbornly remained intact.

It wasn't until his hands were soaked in the cold that the snowflakes covered his hands layer by layer, as if covered with layers of white silk.

On a snowy day, it gets dark very quickly, and after a while, you can't see your fingers.

Hong Chengchou was half-lying and half-leaning on the bed like a poet living abroad, with a lone lamp beside him, a book in his hand, a thick quilt on his waist and abdomen......

Mr. Xu's big yellow dog howled all night, and Yun Zhao covered it with a blanket to no avail, this guy would bark whenever he heard the wind and grass.

One night, the Yun family's village was all chaotic, with the sound of people and horses walking everywhere, and there was no peace all night.

Yun Jiao came back, but Yun Fu and Yun Hu did not come back, he brought gold and silver, and some heavy grain could only take the main road, and the road had been blocked by heavy snow, and it would take a few days to come back.

After greeting this group of heroes, Yun Zhao went back to his room to sleep, and when Mr. Xu was not there, he brought the big yellow dog to the house.

At this moment, the value of gold, silver and jewelry had been reduced to the lowest point by this great famine, and Yun Zhao had little interest in these things.

All he was thinking about at this time was food! Grain!

The spring of Chongzhen's third year was a strange year, and he couldn't exchange silver for food...... Especially in large quantities of grain.

The southeast generation is still prosperous, merchants come and go in an endless stream, and the market is particularly prosperous because of the turmoil in the northwest.

This is very reminiscent of the four cruel words of return to light.

A heavy snowfall will clean up the little spring meteorological massacre that just happened, Yun Zhao is very satisfied, in order to store water, he hopes that this snow can fall a little more, at least let all the reservoirs and ponds be filled with water.

As for the original intention of the matter, he doesn't care anymore, spring sowing is not a problem, this is already the first threshold, and he can already explain to the people of Lantian County.

The wealth brought back by Yunjiao is very rich, from ancient jade, bronze tripods, to gold ingots, silver ingots, and copper coins.

"Other people's robbers can be rich and rival the country, why can't our family be robbers and can't even afford to eat?"

Yun Zhao had long been puzzled about this, but he was afraid that it would hurt people's hearts when he said it, so he couldn't help but say it.

Now that I have obtained so many treasures, I can naturally take them out and ask them.

"We're actually very profitable!"

Yun Jiao shouted loudly.

"The family rules clearly write thirteen don't take it! The old and weak women and children are not taken, the monks and filial sons are not taken, and the ministers who guard the family are ......"

After listening to Yun Jiao's introduction, Yun Zhao suddenly felt that it was not easy for Yun Meng and them to maintain the cottage until now.

The treasures and treasures were sent to the back house, and the gold, silver and copper coins, including the bronze tripod, were sent to the treasury.

Yun Zhao glanced at the account gentleman who had scolded him for being a loser, and found that this old courtier of the Yun clan had already been so happy that he was about to go crazy.

When Yun Zhao took the jade Ruyi and jade pendant from the treasury, he almost snatched it out of the old gentleman's hands.

"Young master, open your eyes, this is Shang Ding, there are eighty-seven inscriptions on it, it is a really good thing.

There are also jade beads and tiger talismans, which are rare treasures! ”

Yun Zhao inspected the loot roughly, and hurried to Yun Jiao's room.

Yun Jiao's dark nose is constantly dripping water...... This is a symptom of the nose being frozen and thawed.

"More than 600 of us died......"

Yun Zhao sighed and stopped what Yun Jiao was about to say.

He already knew about the battle damage last night, Yun Jiao said not completely, more than 600 people died during the attack on Jinsi Gorge, and among the 700 people who returned to Lantian County on the mountain road with their belongings on their backs, 38 people were frozen to death.

As many as 14 animals fell into the cliff.

Yun Zhao didn't know how Yun Jiao took these seven hundred people back from walking nearly four hundred miles of mountain roads in the vast snow.

The process will not be easy.

"How much grain does the melon back king Chen Roll have at home?"

"Too many to count!"

"Huh? So powerful? ”

"Yes, our Yun clan only became the county commander this year, and Chen Luan, the king of melons, killed the county commander by himself and acted as an agent for four years."
