Chapter 16: Tu Nan (4)
These days, who dares to talk to 6 Haruka like this? But even though Hu Liuniang is married to a wife, she still does not change her spicy nature, and she opens her mouth to make fun of her with a gun and a stick. And there is a natural charm in her words, which makes people want to be angry, and they don't know where the anger comes from.
6 Yao galloped all the way, just hoping that the backyard of the house would not catch fire, and that it would be safe and sound; Now seeing that the three of them are really talking and laughing, for a while, I only feel that the moment when I hit the door at the right time has caused my whole body to lose my strength, and I can't even lift the spirit of speaking. At this time, there was a loud noise of footsteps outside the courtyard gate. It turned out that a group of servants heard him yelling in the backyard, and fearing that something would change, they chased after him with swords and halberds, knocking over countless servants along the way. Finally, Ma Rui still knew the severity, and asked loudly outside the courtyard gate: "General, what's the matter?" β
"It's okay, it's okay, you all go and rest." 6 Yaoyue felt embarrassed, and ordered the crowd to retreat, and he sat down directly on the snow, looking at the blazing bonfire. After a while, he changed the topic and said: "It's so fragrant, good craftsmanship, cut a piece for me to taste, and I'm shocked." β
"I'll give you a small piece to see if it tastes." Hu Liuniang pursed her lips and smiled, waved a knife to cut off a piece of very little fat, poked it with the tip of the knife, and handed it directly to the tip of 6 Yao's nose. The cold air on the short knife hit his face, almost making 6 Haruka sneeze. This knife 6 Yao recognized that it was the blade that sharpened iron like mud in the Taihang Mountains in the past and shocked the audience. Who knew that Hu Liuniang used it as a table knife for cutting mutton, which was really free and easy.
When I opened my mouth and swallowed the piece of yellow mutton, I felt that the skin was crispy, the meat was tender and delicious, with a certain spice, and there was very little gas. 6 Yao didn't expect Hu Liuniang to have such craftsmanship, even a person like him who is absolutely jealous and shameful thinks it is delicious. After eating a few pieces, my stomach was warm, and even the blood veins in my body were unblocked.
Hu Liuniang looked at him gobbling up funny, turned to the second girl next to him and smiled: "No wonder this person is violent, it turns out that he is hungry......"
Thanks to Hu Liuniang's uninhibited temperament, the embarrassing atmosphere in the courtyard gradually eased. Ah Jue and Xian Yu's daughter only saluted each other at this time: "I've seen the general." β
Ah Jue didn't care, and barely swallowed the mouth full of mutton, and her oily little face hadn't been wiped clean. Presumably, he was too strictly restrained by the county lord on weekdays, but he didn't expect to bump into Hu Liuniang and other Hu Lai, and he learned badly in the blink of an eye. That Xian Yu's daughter 6 Yao saw it for the first time, and she only felt that her body was weak and her appearance was pretty; Although he was shocked, his demeanor was generous and decent, and he had the shyness of a girl who first saw her husband, which had a unique charm. I heard Xian Yusi say that this female single name is an orchid character, and sure enough, the person is like her name, like an empty valley orchid, both clear and gorgeous.
Rao is 6 Yao was resolute, and he couldn't help but feel a slight wave in his heart, and looked at her fiercely before he said softly: "I'm a little thirsty, can I trouble the girl to get some tea?" β
"Yes." Xian Yulan lowered her eyes and whispered, bowed again, and then got up and went to the back room.
When Xian Yulan's figure was far away, 6 Yao turned to Ah Jue: "I'm tired Ah Jue, you've been busy a few times, it's hard work." But I don't know what the county lord commands? β
Ah Jue and 6 Yao belonged to the friends of distress in the Taihang Mountains, and later came to Youzhou on behalf of the county lord to preach the news, which was quite favorable; I know that 6 Yao doesn't have a shelf, so he is not nervous because of the disparity in the status of the two sides, and when 6 Yao talks to Xian Yu's daughter, she only holds chopsticks and salivates greedily at the grill. After hearing 6 Yao's inquiry, he hurriedly took out an ebony hairpin from the bun, gently dismantled it into two sections, and then pulled out a roll of extremely thin silk book with two sections of wax sealing.
The letter sent by the county lord of Jingling County specially sent the maid secretly, and it must be extraordinary if you don't ask, and for a while, even Hu Liuniang stopped talking and laughing, and it was rare to show a bit of strictness. But after 6 Yao took it, he put it away after a few glances, and his expression was completely unusual. At this time, Xian Yulan led many servants to come forward with teacups, and 6 Yao continued to talk and laugh with the three daughters; It wasn't until the sun was setting in the west and a large number of Xianyu clan relatives arrived when they heard the wind that he set foot on the return journey.
The sky was a little dark, and many cavalry teams galloped out of the general's mansion, and those who were familiar with the military mansion knew that it was General Pingbei who was going to summon the civil and military ministers again.
6 Yao's military government has now begun to see its scale, and there are hundreds of civil and military generals with actual functions. However, there are only more than ten people who really belong to the inner circle, and they are close to Jicheng and can be summoned at any time.
Although Xue Tong is the deputy marshal of the whole army; Shao Xu has never been a counselor of military aircraft, and everything is unpredictable; Fang Qinzhi is a well-regarded advisor recently; Huang Yi is a capable official who is familiar with the number of clerks; Zao Song and Xian Yu are the old people of Wang Pengzu, and the other is the representative of the local Haoqiang in Youzhou, these two people were originally not qualified to participate in the meeting, but 6 Yao specially allowed them to come together in order to calm the hearts of local forces.
The rest are Shen Jinwei's highly qualified generals. These people may not have qualified political minds, but 6 Yao still summons them every time there is a business, even if they are allowed to observe. He hoped that through the meetings, the vision and judgment of the backbone subordinates would be gradually cultivated, so that the original, most loyal and reliable subordinates could grow together with the thriving military government.
These more than ten people arrived, 6 Yao set up a banquet to entertain, during the banquet did not talk about the letter from the lord of Jingling County, only asked the ministers: "The imperial court has awarded me the post of general of Pingbei and the military governor of Youzhou, and it has been more than two months. 6 A certain talent is thin and thin, thanks to the best of the kings, he finally took over the important task smoothly, and there were no major omissions. However, the next thing is still a lot of trouble, why do you think it is a priority? What is the urgency? Please also speak up and don't have any scruples. β
Before the words fell, Shen Jin got up from the table and talked eloquently: "In the past two months, our sergeants and soldiers have been working day and night, and we have basically completed the renovation of various fortresses and passes in the north of Youzhou, and the dispatch of various armies and the appointment of officers have also been carried out. However, the more I took precautions, the more deeply I felt that the safety of Youzhou depended on all ethnic groups in Dongyi. β
"From Jicheng to the east and north, there are Goguryeo and Buyeo in the distance, and there are the Xianbei tribes of the Duanbu, Yuwen and Murong Ministry, all of which are strong and strong, with tens of thousands of armor. In the first battle of Weiyuan, although our army and the Duan Department won the fierce battle, the process was difficult, and the losses caused to our army were heavy. And the strength of the Duan tribe did not surpass the rest of the Dongyi tribes. It can be inferred from this that although our army has expanded extremely rapidly, in terms of strength alone, it is at most comparable to one of the five strong clans of Duanbu, Yuwenbu, Murong, Goguryeo, and Buyeo. Fortunately, the Duke of Liaoxi is loyal to the imperial court, and there is a feud between the Yuwen Ministry and the Murong Department, Goguryeo and Buyeo, otherwise we would be even more alone. β
The famously ferocious general has been in charge of the defense of a large mountainous area in northern Youzhou that borders the Yuwen Ministry for some time. In the process, he apparently conducted a fairly in-depth investigation of the shape of the Hu people, so his vision was no longer simply limited to battlefield fighting: "Therefore, what we need to do now is to contact the captain of Dongyi and Li Zhen, the assassin of Pingzhou, as well as coordinate the relationship with the various departments of Dongyi, either by intimidating them with a large army, or by encircling them with the name of the imperial court." Otherwise, it is impossible to ensure the safety of Youzhou. β
"Lao Shen, you really think about it seriously and work weekdays, so you have some aspects of the meaning of the general. Good, good, a lot of progress. Shen Jin was able to say this, which was really a surprise to 6 Yao. So 6 Yao got up and raised his lamp to signal to Shen Jin: "I replace wine with water, please have a drink." β
Shen Jin took a big sip of water and sat down majestically.
Since they are in Youzhou, the Xianbei ethnic groups in the east and even Goguryeo and Buyeo in the distance are the problems they have to face. Enemies or allies, suppression or exploitation, are just different options in the complex and subtle way of dealing with them. In this regard, Shao Xu has discussed many times with several civil bureaucrats, and Shen Jin is not the only one who has such insight.
But 6 Yao knows that Shen Jin's personality is the most straightforward, and he never thinks about problems in a twist and turn. With his war-loving character, he was originally bound to continue to urge the army to go north and start a war with the Dongyi tribes who were unwilling to submit to the imperial court, but today he proposed to use the name of the imperial court to envelop the Hu people, which just proves that he instinctively felt that it was difficult to urge the soldiers to continue to sacrifice their lives and forget death, and proved that the situation of no month and no war for a year has made a considerable number of backbone officers and soldiers in the army exhausted. This kind of exhaustion comes from the depths of the hearts of the soldiers, and cannot be covered up by rewards and promotions, and the addition of a large number of soldiers under the command of Wang Pengzu has made the centripetal force of the troops inevitably slip, and this fatigue has been exacerbated by a certain process.
Shen Jin himself didn't think about it so much, he consciously put forward incisive opinions, so he looked forward to himself, and he looked very proud. But among the rest of the civil and military forces, half of them showed a thoughtful expression, obviously like 6 Yao, and they all understood the current situation of the war in a short period of time.
"General Shen has insight into the shape of the Hu clan in Northern Xinjiang, and he is worthy of being a general who is relied on by the lord." Among the Wenchen columns, Xian Yusi got up and praised Shen Jin first. Today, 6 Yao broke into the courtyard where he placed his young sister, which was a bit rude, but according to those present, General Pingbei seemed to be very fond of his sister-in-law, which made him full of confidence in his career; Even participating in the meetings of the inner circle of the military government has given me a little more confidence and can't help but speak enthusiastically.
echoed a few words, he changed his words, and said: "Recently, there is a nursery rhyme in Jicheng that says: The history of the two thorns in the east and west, the first governor of Youzhou; It shows that the lord has both the power of the land and the military power of Youzhou, and his power is already familiar to the people, and his reputation is far above that of the ancestor of the assassin. Since the autonomous prince took charge of the military affairs of Youzhou, including the collection of soldiers and horses, the rectification of border defense, the absorption of displaced people, the division of military cantonments, and the collection and preparation of grain, ordnance, war horses, clothing, and medicines, etc., it has been very smooth; TongguΓ²'s measure of rewarding meritorious soldiers with fields also strengthened the influence of the military government in Youzhou. In just two months, the troops were sufficient and the people were safe. Duan Xianbei has even surrendered to our army and made a covenant to help each other. Therefore, General Shen has the foresight to prevent trouble before it happens, but the lord really does not need to be too modest. The subordinates thought that today's Youzhou was enough to deter the Hu people and ensure the safety of the northern frontier of the Great Jin Dynasty. β
Xian Yusi looked at Shen Jin and continued: "We just need to calm down and patiently raise the army and civilians, and our strength will naturally gradually surpass that of the Hu clan." For now, it is better to let the Hu people do their own thing, and it is expected that they will not dare to provoke the majesty of the military government. β
Shen Jin felt the weakness of the Youzhou military government in the short term, but he still planned to actively intervene in the Hu people in northern Xinjiang and use active means to ensure the safety of Youzhou; Xian Yusi realized the long-term potential of the Youzhou Military Government, so he proposed a conservative proposal. The two people have different perspectives on the problem, and the opinions they put forward can be said to be very different.
6 Haruka smiled noncommittally and asked the rest of his subordinates, "What do you think?" Let's talk about it too. β
Huang Yi came out of the column and saluted, bowed and said, "My subordinates think that General Shen Jin's opinion is very reasonable. The various departments of Dongyi are close to Youzhou, the strength is strong, and their leaders are ambitious, in case of elbows and armpits, it may be a big disaster. Rather than stay behind closed doors and be caught off guard, we should take the initiative and steer the situation in our favor. I remember that more than a month ago, when the lord summoned us to discuss the position of the military government, the Duke of Deyuan once said that just as he was going forward bravely and fighting with him as always, how could he be lucky and retreat as safe? β
When Huang Yi was a small official in Ye County, he dared to take responsibility and had a resolute and decisive style; Now as a subordinate of the military government, when analyzing the general trend, he still likes to face difficulties, and this character is deeply appreciated by 6 Yao.
However, before Huang Yi's words fell, Zao Song sneered: "Huang Peng's ambition is very strong, as if the world can be transported in the palm of his hand." However, ignoring the current situation of the military government, he will want to subdue the various departments of Dongyi, in case there is disharmony, but it will arouse the hostility of the various ethnic groups in Donghu, doesn't Huang Peng have another way to retreat from the enemy? β
He no longer paid attention to Huang Yi, and saluted to 6 Yao: "The lord is wise and martial, so he started from the army, and he is also prosperous. However, the momentum of prosperity cannot last long, and the people are brave and afraid of losing the community, don't you hear Wu Ziyun: Ming Lord Jianzi, must cultivate Wende internally, and govern the military equipment externally, and then Xu Tu others? If you want to interfere with the Dongyi tribes, it will be like coercing the sea north of Taishan, if you can't be honest, why is it strong? β
Zao Song agreed with Xian Yuhei's Jianyì, and demanded that patience and strength must be the key, and not to meddle in the affairs of the Hu people in northern Xinjiang, which is not for no reason. In the past, Wang Pengzu tried his best to be Xianbei, invited him as a guest, and introduced him as a humerus, but in the end he inevitably failed. Therefore, Wang Pengzu's old subordinates like Zao Song will inevitably have palpitations, and they really don't want to have anything to do with Xianbei anymore. He was also a well-known literati, and his words quoted from the scriptures and classics, and his eloquence was really difficult to refute for a while.
6 Listening to their own opinions, and after a long heated debate, I gradually summed up in my heart. He coughed lightly, stopped everyone's dispute, and then asked Xue Tong first: "How long will it take for the soldiers to recover their fighting spirit and arouse their desire to fight?" β
On the issue of military affairs, Xue Tong is the unyielding authority. He responded: "Now our army of more than 30,000 people, all of them are soldiers who dare to fight and are good at fighting, and they only need another month or two to recuperate. β
