Chapter 377 If you have Polygala aspiration, why bother with Angelica sinensis?
Author: Soy Sauce Mixed History
Outside Ji County, Tianshui County, far away from Chencang, there was a group of young men riding horses galloping on the vast grassland.
Although in order to facilitate the control of the horses, all the young men in this group were wearing military uniforms.
However, the colors of the uniforms worn by this group of teenagers are very bright, indicating that the living conditions of this group of teenagers should be good.
After all, Tianshui County is located in northern Xinjiang and often suffers from Qiang and Di rebellions, so its economy has always been underdeveloped.
As for the young men who can wear bright clothes and angry horses without any scruples in the barren Tianshui County, they may be the children of aristocratic families in Ji County.
It's just that no matter what the identity of each young man is, most of them, who were originally young and energetic, are now galloping behind a young man.
This is enough to prove that that young man has a status similar to that of a leader in their minds.
And this young man is none other than Jiang Wei and Jiang Boyue, who are known as "Youlin" in Tianshui County.
Jiang Wei, who was riding fast on a horse, felt the mountains and mountains around him, and the thousands of miles of green plains were changing rapidly in his sight.
This feeling that seemed to transcend everything made Jiang Wei very intoxicated.
Jiang Wei was born into a wealthy family in Hebei County. Although he lost his father when he was young, due to his family's background, his living conditions were not bad since he was a child.
One of Jiang Wei's clan uncles, Jiang Xu, was a cousin of Yang Fu, the governor of Liangzhou who was deeply trusted by Cao Zhen today.
With this relationship, as Jiang Wei grew up, his reputation gradually spread in Tianshui County.
Even before he was crowned, he was summoned by Yang Fu, the governor of Liangzhou, to serve in the state.
Judging from Jiang Wei's life experience in the first twenty years, his starting point was already higher than that of most of the children of aristocratic families in the world.
But Jiang Wei was not satisfied with the status quo. He had hidden ambitions in his heart since he was young, thinking that one day he would be able to truly show his prominence in the world without relying on the support of his family.
It is precisely because of his character that when Jiang Wei had not yet held an official position, although he loved Confucian classics very much, he did not like to work as a commoner.
His hobby is to spread his wealth and nourish the dead.
On the one hand, Jiang Wei behaved this way because he himself is a person who likes to make achievements, and he believes that the first step in making achievements is to establish his own small team.
In addition to this reason, it was also because his father died tragically in a riot when he was young.
In Tianshui County, where the situation was turbulent and wars broke out frequently, Jiang Wei felt that if he did not have an armed force that directly obeyed his orders, his life would be precarious.
And the group of young men following him were just the tip of the iceberg among the dead soldiers he supported.
After running for a long time, even Jiang Wei, who was good at riding and shooting, felt a little tired.
So after Jiang Wei rode his horse up a hill, he stopped the horse in time.
Seeing this, all the young men following him followed Jiang Wei up the hillside with their horses.
Then, just when their horses' hooves were a few steps away from Jiang Wei, they immediately reined in the horses at their crotches as if their bodies were instinctive.
In addition to his love of studying classics and history, Jiang Wei also had a deep understanding of military strategies.
After he recruited some dead soldiers, he studied fencing, riding and archery on the one hand, and on the other hand, he led his dead soldiers to hunt and practice martial arts in the mountains outside Hexian County.
Jiang Wei was completely training the dead soldiers he recruited in the same way as training an army.
After stationing his horse on the top of the mountain, Jiang Wei saw the endless plains outside Ji County.
In Jiang Wei's sight, when he looked far into the distance, it seemed that the vast sky and earth were all connected into a line.
But the dividing line formed by heaven and earth firmly trapped him in the world of Ji County.
It's autumn, and it's already starting to get cold in some places in the North.
Wisps of cold wind blew past Jiang Wei, lifting his long hair at the temples and causing Jiang Wei to sigh involuntarily.
"The north wind is like a knife, and the years are like a knife. Am I going to have to stay outside Ji County for the rest of my life?"
To ordinary people, what Jiang Wei has achieved now is enough to make people envious.
But for the ambitious Jiang Wei, his platform is not the small Jixian County, let alone the barren Tianshui County.
His platform should be Liang Liang, which is gradually becoming the center of the world's attention!
And Jiang Wei also had great self-confidence in his heart. He firmly believed that he would be able to carve out his own glory in a world full of open guns and hidden arrows, and swords and swords.
Just when Jiang Wei was feeling emotional, a messenger on horseback came quickly towards Jiang Wei under the hillside.
This messenger rider was also one of the dead soldiers supported by Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei, who was condescending, noticed the arrival of this confidant.
Seeing that his confidants who had been left behind at home suddenly came to look for him, he initially thought that Ji County was being attacked by aliens again.
But just after the messenger quickly came to the hillside, he reported the good news to Jiang Wei with a happy face.
This good news is about Cao Zhen's appointment of an official to Jiang Wei.
It turned out that Yang Fu sent an envoy to Jiang Wei's home and found that Jiang Wei was not there, so he temporarily handed over the official seal to Jiang's mother.
After the envoy left, Jiang's mother immediately sent someone to tell Jiang Wei the good news.
After hearing that Jiang Wei was awarded the title of Zhonglang and joined the army in Tianshui County, all his cronies showed joy on their faces.
Because as Jiang Wei's dead soldiers, as long as Jiang Wei's status climbs higher, the greater benefits they will gain in the future.
But unlike his cronies, Jiang Wei had a look of disappointment on his face after hearing the news.
Joining the army in Tianshui County sounds like a high position, but in his heart Jiang Wei would rather become a small army Sima in Chencang City.
Disappointed, Jiang Wei didn't utter a word, then drove the horse on his crotch, rushed down the hillside at a very fast speed, and then headed towards Ji County.
He will do something next that will have a great impact on his future.
Jiang Wei's dead soldiers on the hillside saw that their master seemed to be depressed, and they didn't know why.
However, after Jiang Wei took action, they, who had received Jiang Wei's military training since childhood, immediately drove their horses and followed their master in the direction of Ji County.
On the vast plains, with the blessing of the horses at their crotches, Jiang Wei's small team was very fast.
It's just that in late autumn in Hebei County, the sky is always dark quickly.
When Jiang Wei and his party returned to the outside of Ji County, the city guards of Ji County were closing the city gates.
But when the city gate captain saw that it was Jiang Wei and his party who had returned, he immediately asked his soldiers to temporarily close the city gate.
As Yang Fu became the governor of Liangzhou, the Tianshui Jiang family, who had been close friends with the Tianshui Yang family for many generations, continued to improve their status in Hebei County.
Under the deliberate concession from the captain of the city gate, Jiang Wei rode his horse into the city gate without hesitation.
The dozens of men behind him also followed the same example, completely ignoring the city gates and soldiers in front of them.
They had done this kind of thing many times under Jiang Wei's leadership.
After Jiang Wei rode his horse into the city gate, he immediately headed towards his mansion.
Soon after, Jiang Wei returned to his mansion.
After returning to the mansion, Jiang Wei didn't bother to wash up or eat, so he went straight to the door.
When standing outside the door, Jiang Wei, who had always been bold, rarely showed hesitation on his face.
Because his old mother lives inside this door.
But after hesitating for a while, Jiang Wei's eyes became firmer.
Jiang Wei reached out and slowly pushed open the door.
Although the Tianshui Jiang family is a wealthy family, as the mistress, the house of the Jiang family is not luxurious and spacious.
So when Jiang Wei opened the door, he saw his mother Jiang at a glance.
When Ms. Jiang saw Jiang Wei returning, she immediately put down her needlework while she was doing embroidery, and then looked at Jiang Wei with a loving look on her face.
Jiang Wei is her only son. Since Jiang Wei's father died in the war, she has only relied on him in this world.
Mother Jiang smiled and waved to Jiang Wei to come forward. When Jiang Wei came forward, Mother Jiang wanted to ask him if he had eaten.
What Jiang's mother didn't expect was that when Jiang Wei came to her, before she could speak, Jiang Wei knelt directly in front of her.
Jiang Wei's move not only surprised Jiang's mother, but also made her feel a little worried.
She knew her son better than her mother, and Jiang's mother knew that Jiang Wei would suddenly act like this, and she must be asking him for something.
And according to common sense, she would not agree to this matter, otherwise Jiang Wei would not need to do this.
Sure enough, after Jiang Wei knelt down, he bowed deeply to Jiang's mother and said:
"Mother, I want to go to Chencang."
Jiang Wei's voice was not loud, but when his request fell into Jiang's mother's ears, it exploded in her ears like a bolt from the blue.
Mother Jiang subconsciously blurted out to stop: "Absolutely not."
Jiang's mother had expected that Jiang Wei might make some requests that she could not accept, but she did not expect this.
In the Han Dynasty, it was normal for the children of aristocratic families to travel far away, and it was also regarded as a means of gaining experience and experience. But why did Jiang's mother resist Jiang Wei's visit to Chencang so much?
It was because Mother Jiang knew the dangers of Chencang.
After Jiang Wei's father died in the war, Jiang Wei was still young at that time, so the Tianshui Jiang family business was managed by Jiang's mother.
Judging from the fact that Jiang Weineng has enough money to support the dead, there is no doubt that Jiang's mother has managed the Jiang family business very well in the past ten years.
This is enough to show that Jiang's mother is not an ordinary woman.
Before she got married, she was the legitimate daughter of the Yang family in Tianshui. If the relationship was considered, Yang Fu was her brother.
Precisely because of his outstanding personal abilities and close relationship with Yang Fu, Jiang's mother knew that Chen Cang was now regarded by General Cao Zhen as the first line of defense against Mi Yang.
Even Jiang's mother, who was widowed in Ji County, had heard of Mi Yang's reputation.
However, due to the spread of rumors, Mi Yang was basically equated with the devil in the hearts of Cao Wei people.
Jiang's mother knew that Chen Cang would become Mi Yang's main attack target in the future, so how could he let Jiang Wei risk his own life?
If something goes wrong with Jiang Wei, who should she rely on in the future?
Jiang Wei knew that this matter would be strongly opposed by Jiang's mother, and he also knew the reason why Jiang's mother opposed him.
It's just that Jiang Wei, who has great ambitions, cannot keep himself in Jixian.
The main reason why Jiang Wei in history honestly served as a soldier in Tianshui County was because Ji Han's power was weak at that time in history.
Not to mention Jiang Wei, few people in the entire Wei Dynasty would have expected that Zhuge Liang would take the initiative in the Northern Expedition.
In that case, although Liangzhou was located on the border, it was considered by the Wei people to be safer than the Central Plains, so Jiang Wei could only stay in Tianshui County temporarily and wait for the opportunity.
After all, his connections are all in Liangzhou, and it is impossible for him to go to Yangzhou to make achievements.
But the current situation is very different from that in history.
Everyone knows that Liu Jun will definitely launch a large-scale Northern Expedition in a few years. With this judgment in mind, how can Jiang Wei, who loves to make achievements, suppress the restlessness in his heart?
As for others being afraid of Mi Yang, Jiang Wei, who was as bold as a fighter, would never be afraid of him.
Because he wanted to make great achievements in his heart, tears already appeared in Jiang Wei's eyes. He said sincerely to Jiang's mother:
"You know that your mother is protecting your child by pleading with Duke Yang to let her serve as Tianshui and join the army.
However, how can a man live in this world and do nothing?
Moreover, although Tianshui is peaceful for a while, it will never be peaceful for a long time. Not to mention the foreign tribes who often make troubles, if Mi Yang sweeps across Liangzhou, how can Tianshui be immune to military disasters?
For the sake of their hometown and themselves, the children must go to Chencang and do their part for the country."
Jiang Wei's reasons were detailed, but Jiang's mother just shed tears and shook her head in denial.
Seeing Jiang's mother behave like this, Jiang Wei had no choice but to reveal another underlying reason why he was eager to make a contribution.
"In order to protect the county guard, my father was killed in the war. Later, the child often thought, could it be that his father was not so talented at the beginning?
After thinking about it in various ways, the boy thought that this was not the reason. It was because his father was just a meritorious officer at the time and had no military power in his hands. He was outnumbered and faced this calamity.
Today, when there are strong enemies outside the water and Qiang chaos inside, it is far from the time for children to seek safety.
Otherwise, if the Qiang people invade again in the future, even if the child has a strategy to defeat the enemy, if he does not have military power, won't the disaster that happened to his father happen to the child?
In troubled times, military power is the most important thing, so going to Chencang is not only a matter of struggle, but also self-protection."
After Jiang Wei said these words, he kowtowed heavily to Jiang's mother several times, hoping that Jiang's mother would agree to his request.
Jiang's mother is not an unreasonable person, she knows that everything Jiang Wei says makes sense.
If the first reason mentioned by Jiang Wei is not enough to impress Mother Jiang, then the second reason mentioned by Jiang Wei is enough to shake Mother Jiang.
She didn't want Jiang Wei to follow the same path as his father.
At this time, Jiang's mother thought that although Chen Cang was on the front line, as long as Jiang Wei could stay by Yang Fu's side, safety would be guaranteed.
Thinking of this, Mother Jiang could only helplessly close her tear-filled eyes.
"I will write a letter to Duke Yang and ask him to find a position for you in the army."
"It's just that you have to promise me that after arriving in Chencang, you will obey Duke Yang's instructions and not be willful in the slightest."
As long as Jiang's mother is willing to allow him to go to Chencang, there is nothing Jiang Wei can't agree to.
Jiang Wei hurriedly agreed to Mother Jiang's instructions and then prepared to leave the room.
But just when Jiang Wei was about to step out, Jiang’s mother’s last warning came:
"Bojo, if there is any disharmony, let it go!".
Faced with Jiang's mother's warning, Jiang Wei just accepted it and left the room.
After arriving outside the room, it was already completely dark, but looking at the moonless sky with few stars, Jiang Wei's mood was not ordinary.
He didn't directly answer Mother Jiang's warning just now, just because the answer in his heart was:
"There are hundreds of hectares of fertile land, not one acre, but there is Polygala, not Angelica!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Wei strode out of Jiang Mu's courtyard.
Chen Cang, my Tianshui Jiang Bo is here!
