Zhao Shu has seen martial arts performances and military parades, but such a tragic scene has only been seen when he was in Shenjiazhuang.

At that time, not long after the Bishan army arrived in Bianliang, someone provoked, and the two sides came to a military exercise in Shenjiazhuang, but the opponent was beaten with his head and ran away, which was miserable.

But that time, the Bishan Army won by an overwhelming margin, so I didn't feel much of a tragic breath.

Bang!

A big man was slashed in the arm where there was no protection, and immediately howled miserably, and then he grabbed his opponent with one hand and slammed it headlong.

The two big men fell down with blood on their faces.

Tragedy abounded everywhere, Zhao Shu was a little unbearable to witness, and said: "Is this the case on the battlefield? ”

Cao Tong had been in the battle array, so he said honestly: "Official, the real battle array is even more tragic than this." ”

"More tragic than this?" Zhao Shu was shocked and said: "Are those soldiers ......?"

He remembered the scenes of those Great Song Dynasty soldiers fighting hard, and couldn't help but tremble: "Is this the case?" Why didn't those people say it? Why don't you let me know about this? ”

Cao Yan was embarrassed and couldn't speak, so he looked at Zhao Ji.

I can't say that!

- Your Majesty, the soldiers fought bloody battles and fought fiercely......

I've said this countless times!

But when did you listen carefully?

In the eyes of the superiors, the blood and sacrifices of the soldiers were probably just a number, plus some more troubles about the cost of pensions.

As for the tragic ...... Okay, the old man knows.

But how can a person who has never seen such a tragic superior understand the bravery of the soldiers?

Cao Tong suddenly had a realization, knowing that Shen An had taken advantage of himself by the way, and it was not easy for the soldiers to tell the officials in such a tragic way.

But he didn't have any resentment, because the previous one was just a drill, but the one just now was a real drill, and this scene shocked him a little.

It turns out that Shen An's arrangement is so tragic?

How could that young man understand so much?

At this moment, most of the people have fallen, and when Zhao Ji saw it, he said: "Official, the general army is in danger of collapsing when the casualties reach two to three percent, and the Cao family is good." ”

Most of these have fallen and have not collapsed, which shows Cao Yan's ability to train soldiers.

Shen An confessed yesterday: You can't stop until there is only one person left.

So this scene was presented, which made Zhao Shu very satisfied.

"Good! Stop. ”

Zhao Shu stopped with satisfaction, and then said, "Not bad." ”

Cao Tong knew that he had passed the test, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "The minister is willing to die for the official family!" ”

Zhao Shu said with satisfaction: "Go back, I will naturally consider it in the future." ”

Cao Tong got up happily, and after Zhao Shu's father and son left, he looked at the guards who fell to the ground, and said, "Get them all back." ”

Most of the young people were okay and helped each other to get up, but the two old pawns were lying there, breathing slightly.

A group of big men surrounded them, looking sad.

Cao Tong asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The crowd silently parted ways, and Cao Tong walked in.

The two old pawns opened their eyes and said with a smile: "I'm going to see Ah Lang." Lang Jun, you work hard to ...... the Cao family Cheer up the Cao family...... Otherwise...... Otherwise...... Alang, the villain is here......"

As soon as the old pawn's hand was loosened, it drooped down.

Cao Tong didn't know what was wrong with him, tears just slid down, and then slowly knelt down, sobbing silently.

"It's a certain person who can't live with you, a certain useless, useless!"

He looked up, only feeling that he had failed so badly that he hated that someone would beat him.

"Save them! What about Anbei? Cao Tong turned around, and Shen An was behind him.

"Anbei, save them, what do you want...... brother" He felt that he had spoken too much, and he was humiliating Shen An, so he raised his head and said: "They are all the most loyal guards of the Cao family, even if they are aggrieved by such a useless person, they will not complain...... I'm sorry for them! ”

Cao Tong burst into tears, and he no longer saw the cautiousness of the past.

Shen An walked over, stretched out his hand and probed under the noses of the two old soldiers, and said, "Come on, carry them to a sheltered place." ”

Cao Tong personally held the hands of an old pawn, and raised his chin towards the side hall, "Go over there." ”

The attendant on the side was stunned and said, "Uncle Guo, you can't open the door without the orders of the official over there!" ”

There are many rules in the palace, such as some palaces cannot open the door without instructions, and they can't even sprinkle and sweep.

Cao Yan smiled cruelly: "Open the door!" Something happened to a certain force to bear. If not, I'll kill you first, and then I'll break through the door. ”

"Uncle Guo, that's a taboo!"

"The taboo of fart!" Cao Tong scolded: "They gave up their lives for a certain and a certain family, what taboo is this family head afraid of, is that still a person?" That's brute, go, open the door. ”

An attendant quickly went to tell Cao Yan about his recklessness.

Zhao Shu, who was on the road, stopped and turned around and was silent for a long time.

Zhao Ji was worried that he would be angry, so he persuaded: "Official, Uncle Cao Guo has a simple temperament, and he thinks he is in a hurry. ”

Zhao Shu turned around and continued to move forward, the waiter was a little dazed, and asked, "Official, do you want to stop it?" ”

Zhao Shu shook his head, "Stop what?" It's a good thing to have affection and righteousness, do you want those wolf-hearted people to be on top? Let the Imperial Doctor go! ”

The imperial doctor rushed to the side hall and saw Shen An rescuing.

Seeing the imperial doctor come in, Shen An got up and said, "I'm just exhausted." ”

The two veterans had not fought so fiercely for many years, and their emotions were too excited...... At the moment, this kind of mood is normal, so he pumped it.

After carrying them in, Shen An performed the Dafa of pinching people again, waking them up in two clicks, and they are currently recuperating.

"Returning to the Hou Wonderful Hands to rejuvenate!"

The two imperial doctors habitually touted Shen An, and then each stepped forward to diagnose and treat.

"Thank you."

The two old soldiers struggled to salute Shen An, and Shen An said: "Loyal people, someone will naturally come to the rescue." Ruthless and unrighteous people, a certain will only fall into the well. ”

Cao Tong solemnly bowed his hand, "Thank you Anbei, I have something to say in the future." ”

Shen An smiled: "It's just a trivial matter, it's not worth being an uncle like this." ”

Cao Tong said solemnly: "These old pawns have been lost to my family all their lives, born and died, forgetting death, a certain originally wanted them to live for a long time, but never thought that the official family was merciful, and actually gave the Cao family the opportunity to do martial arts, national affairs and family affairs, a certain must only take care of state affairs, so they tired them......"

It's a gesture.

Cao Yan's words not only expressed his loyalty to Zhao Shu, but also appeased these guards.

This is a compulsory course for the powerful...... Buying people's hearts.

"Lang Jun, but there is something, we are willing to follow Lang Jun into battle and kill the Liao people!"

The guards of the Cao family looked excited, probably praised by the head of the family so much, and their blood was already boiling.

This is the difference between a laborer and a laborer.

Shen An didn't have much interest in these, and later these people withdrew from the imperial city, and Cao Tong specially stayed behind.

"Anbei, what is a powerful person? There is the power of self-preservation, there is dependence, and there are people to call ...... Let the battle be able to kill the enemy, and let it be a functional herdsman...... It's not just that the family is knowledgeable, it's more that the family is full of talents, and they have everything they want......"

This is somewhat similar to the doorman system during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, where the master used his prestige and money to recruit talents, and then let them use them for his own use.

However, Da Song can't have this kind of doorman system, otherwise the old Zhao family will give you nightmares.

"You don't need more, just a few of all kinds of talents."

Cao Tong is seriously teaching Shen An's powerful way of running a family.

The ways of the magnates are different, but most of them are similar, they all cherish themselves with brooms, and they refuse to speak to outsiders, which is probably the meaning of passing on the son but not the daughter, and the eldest son not the second son.

"Most of these people can only use one generation, why?" Cao Tong is really serious about Shen An, "If you want them to return to their hearts, you have to give benefits, money is secondary, the first thing is to give their sons benefits, give them freedom, and try their best to help them go to the imperial examination to become official ......"

Shen An nodded, "Only in this way can they serve their lives." ”

"Yes, Anbei, you are really smart." Cao Tong smiled and said: "You just have to operate like this, in a few years, the Shen family will become a real powerful family." ”

"Powerful!" Shen An smiled and said: "I have talents in my hands, and I have money and food at home...... Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, is this the powerful? ”

Cao Tong nodded, "Yes, this is the powerful." And everyone has to communicate with each other, and if necessary...... The Cao family is far away from those people because of their mother, but in the future, they will slowly associate with them, and when the next generation comes, the Cao family will reintegrate into the elite. ”

"It's good to huddle together for warmth, but have you ever thought about it, why can't those powerful people be reused? Do you know why the officials and the DPRK would rather raise them like pigs than let them serve as officials in the army? ”

Shen An dropped this sentence and left, leaving Cao Yan in a daze.

"Something wrong? Or the powerful are wrong. ”

He pondered for a long time, then turned around and asked someone to send a message to Empress Dowager Cao.

Empress Dowager Cao was drinking medicine, the weather was cold, she was sweating profusely in the morning when she practiced martial arts, and she stood in the cool breeze for a while, which was not a cold.

"Mother's ......"

Ren Shouzhong staggered, and the stick sores on his buttocks had not healed, and the pain was terrible.

His sweaty appearance did not attract the attention of Empress Dowager Cao, and he was considered blind.

"Soul calling!" Empress Dowager Cao stared at him coldly, with the intention of letting people clean him up again.

Ren Shouzhong was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang, Uncle Guo has won a big victory......

"Shut up!"

The joints of Empress Dowager Cao's hand holding the bowl turned white, her body trembled slightly, and she couldn't be excited.

Lao Cao's family is about to turn over!

"Go, tell Da Lang, be cautious, don't be arrogant."

As soon as Ren Shouzhong went out, Cao Tong's words were brought.

"Niangniang, Uncle Guo asked...... Did the magnates do it wrong? ”

"Huh?" Empress Dowager Cao's nasal voice was very strong, after all, she was Cao Bin's granddaughter, but after thinking about it, she guessed what her younger brother meant, "The powerful fly camp is naturally wrong." ”

When someone came and was about to go out, Empress Dowager Cao stopped him and said, "You go and tell Da Lang, don't make a bird......

After the others left, she said with relief: "Da Lang is so sensible, congratulations!" The Cao family is worry-free. ”

"Niangniang, Uncle Guo and Guixin Hou said something, and when he turned around, he stayed there, and let the villain pass the word later."

"It's Shen An?" Empress Dowager Cao sighed: "This young man ...... Work is old and steady, good, good! ”
