Although Ma Chao kept yelling for revenge, everyone obviously hadn't recovered from the incident. They didn't have any good suggestions at the moment, so they dispersed for the time being and returned to their small team to come up with something.
After a unified opinion is reached, it is convenient to sit down and discuss together.
Therefore, various tribes in Xiliang shouted some slogans, such as Han Sui led the destiny of Xiliang, was the person who realized Xiliang's dreams and ideals, and was the great forerunner who guided the road, etc., indicating that except Han Sui, Xiliang
No one is needed. Xiliang only knows Han Sui, only supports the great Comrade Han Sui, and will always support and love Comrade Han Sui...
Anyway, that’s pretty much what it means.
The tribes of Xiliang were basically the same as Ma Chao. They believed that Han Sui was in trouble and had little luck, so the best gift to a dead person was to keep adding false names to the dead person's head, and then quietly bury him.
Take the remaining belongings into your hands.
The Xiliang tribes thought so, and Ma Chao Chao did the same thing. Ma Chao found Pang De right away.
Pang De and Ma Chao are basically the front and back legs.
Pound was a little earlier, but before Pound could say anything, the traces of Ma Chao and his party were discovered. All the attention of the Xiliang tribes were focused on Ma Chao, and Pound was naturally forgotten.
In the hearts of the commanders of the Xiliang tribes, Ma Chao and Han Sui were together. Ma Chao also knew the information that Pang De knew. And as a leader-level figure, Ma Chao should even know some things that Pang De didn't know. Since
So, why bother asking repeatedly to understand?
"Ling Ming..." Ma Chao sat next to Pang De, turned to stare at Pang De, and said, "During the previous battle, there was so much chaos that I didn't have time to return to the camp to take care of him... I wonder if Ling Ming has seen Tiedi.
…”
Pang De stared at the ground, slowly shook his head and said: "...There was a big chaos in the camp, and someone woke up from a daze...Fires were everywhere, soldiers rushed in disorder, and there was no organization...Someone was lucky enough to run quickly
I ran out of the way, but I never saw Commander Tie..."
People always subconsciously avoid some troubles, especially when they realize that they are troublesome things.
At the beginning, Pang De also thought about telling the truth about his experiences in the Feiqian camp, but then firstly, the Xiliang generals did not ask, secondly, Ma Chao came back, and thirdly, the follow-up Han
After the armor thing happened again and again, Pound seemed to have noticed something strange, but it was difficult to say, and he couldn't explain it clearly, so he simply concealed his experience of being captured.
Come down.
Ma Chao frowned slightly. He and Pang De were already very familiar with each other and could be considered good friends. Ma Chao was also aware of Pang De's habits. When he saw Pang De, he didn't dare to look at him.
With some not-so-good guesses...
"Ling Ming!" Ma Chao suddenly grabbed Pang De's arm and confirmed again, "Are you sure you haven't seen Tiedi?!"
Pang De raised his head, looked at Ma Chao, and said, "I really didn't see him."
Ma Chao stared at Pang De for a moment, let go of his hand, lowered his head, and said: "Sorry... Ling Ming, it's just..." On this issue, Ma Chao could tell that Pang De's eyes were very upright, without any trace of confusion.
Avoidance. Well, maybe Pound's expression just now was that he just felt a little guilty for not being able to save Ma Tie...
Under the circumstances at that time, Ma Chao himself was unable to rescue Ma Tie, so there was no point in blaming Pound for not rescuing him.
The two were silent for a moment.
"You want to go back to Jincheng..." Ma Chao broke the silence and said, "Will your order be willing to lend a helping hand?"
"Jincheng?" Pang De looked at Ma Chao.
Ma Chao nodded and said: "My uncle died. I will not avenge this revenge. I am ashamed of the kindness I owe to my uncle for taking care of me. However, all the commanders have their own thoughts and are hesitant to move forward. You and I are single and weak. We have no choice but to return to Jincheng and summon my uncle's old troops."
Only then can we take revenge.”
Pang De hesitated and said: "Young Commander, Yan Ming is currently guarding Jincheng..."
Ma Chao looked at the ground and said slowly: "Ling Ming, you know that although my uncle has a son who is weak, so most of the military matters are entrusted to Yan Yanming, but... my uncle left in a hurry and did not stay.
Just a few words, if I don’t go back to help Brother Wang..."
Han Wang.
Son of Han Sui.
I don’t know whether it was because Han Sui was living on the move during that period, or because Han Wang’s mother was not a Qiang girl, so she was weak and sick when she was born. Although she was nursed back to health in many ways, her congenital deficiencies meant that she could not go into battle, and Han Sui was unable to fight.
Next, a daughter was born, so he had to let his son-in-law Yan Xing lead the troops.
Pang De understood what Ma Chao meant. From a certain perspective, Ma Chao's statement was correct. Although Yan Xing was Han Sui's son-in-law, he was still a member of the Yan family. After Han Sui's death, Han Wang was unable to inherit the family business. Naturally,
There is no doubt that all of them will be swept away by Yan Xing, and according to the customs of the Han Dynasty, there is no big problem for Yan Xing to inherit Han Sui's family business. As long as Yan Xing expresses his intention to give one of his children the surname
Han, if Han Sui's family property is passed to him in the future, then most of Han Sui's family members will agree.
Ma Chao is very familiar with Pang De, but Pang De is also familiar with Ma Chao. Although there is nothing wrong with Ma Chao's words, Pang De has a doubt in his heart...
"So, what do you mean, young commander?" Pound asked.
Ma Chao said: "General Chenggong and all the Xiliang commanders are here. You and I should go back to Jincheng quickly to stabilize the situation for Brother Wang, and then come back with Brother Yanming to have a showdown with the little thief from Zhengxi!"
Pound pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Ma Chao was overjoyed, patted Pang De on the shoulder, and said, "Let Ming tidy up, and you and I will set off immediately!" After saying that, Ma Chao left first.
Pang De silently returned to his tent. He had just taken off the armor from the wooden frame, but his heart moved. Then he just took two steps outside, but stopped, raised his head and thought about something, and finally grew long.
With a sigh, he turned around and took the weapon, opened the tent curtain, and walked out.
Outside the tent, Ma Chao and several Qiang cavalry were already waiting in the distance. When they saw Pang De come out, they waved.
Pound nodded, tightened the harness, put all his armor and weapons on the horse's back, then got on his horse and followed Ma Chao to the west...
…………………………
Shanggui City.
Shanggui is not big, it is just a county under Tianshui County, formerly known as Qingshui County. During the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, Qingshui was the residence of the Qin Rong and Mian Zhu Rong. During the reign of King Xiao of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Feizi, the leader of the tribe surnamed Ying, had merit in raising horses.
It was granted the title of vassal of the royal family and its fiefdom was in Qingshui, so the history of this city wall can be considered to be quite old.
Later, due to the eastward shift of politics, culture and economy, Shanggui did not get any tilt, let alone tearing down the original old city wall and then rebuilding and expanding it. It has been used in this way until now.
There are spots of leaking green bricks on the city wall, and some of the battlements have collapsed without time to repair, exposing the loess that originally belonged to the inside of the wall.
Ever since Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and the Qiang Rebellion, Shanggui has no specific county magistrate assigned by the court. The Zhao family of Tianshui has always been in charge of it. The fake county magistrate's surname is Zhao Ang and his courtesy name is Weizhang. When he saw Fei Qian coming with his soldiers,
He held a book and a ribbon to welcome him outside the city.
Fei Qian smiled and took the ribbon without caring about Zhao Ang's little thoughts, then handed it back to Zhao Ang with his backhand.
Zhao Ang was naturally very happy and quickly arranged for cattle, sheep, drinks and other materials to pay for the army.
It is completely meaningless for Fei Qian to want to garrison an enclave like Shanggui. There are too many troops stationed in Shanggui. One of them is poor and the other is small. They can't be deployed at all. If there is no garrison, what's the point of taking the title?
Therefore, it is better to be a favor and turn it around in your hand, which is equivalent to making a footnote to Zhao Ang. From then on, Zhao Ang can take off the "fake" on his head and openly become a real Shanggui.
County magistrate.
As long as Zhengxi Feiqian does not fall, then Zhao Ang will have an extra talisman, and he will be regarded as Feiqian's protégé and old official, which is probably what it means.
With the fresh cow wine, Fei Qian naturally no longer had to chew horse meat, so he asked people to get charcoal from the stove in the tent, and used some iron wire to make iron sticks, and then he could grill it.
Grilled food has been around since ancient times, but the methods of grilling have been changing all the time.
The appearance of the word "Zhi" vividly depicts the delicacy of barbecue, which is to take meat and roast it on the fire, and "popular" means that people's articles are like barbecue, which makes people take one bite after another and can't stop!
"If you have a rabbit, you can burn it with a cannon. If a gentleman has wine, he can offer it as he wishes." People in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period already knew that roasting hare alone was out of date, and it had to be paired with wine to be delicious.
By the Han Dynasty, rectangular charcoal-fired ovens similar to those used for roasting beef and mutton skewers had appeared in later generations. They were also called "Shanglin stoves." The iron ones were relatively larger, and the ceramic ones were smaller.
It is smaller and has two handles on the left and right sides for easy carrying.
So at the moment, Fei Qian just used iron wire instead of bamboo skewers, and added some more seasonings to marinate the mutton. However, eating meat was still a relatively high-level matter in the Han Dynasty, and ordinary people could not eat as much as they wanted.
Meat is somewhat of a good treat.
Fei Qian picked up an iron skewer and looked at the mutton skewered on the iron skewer. The originally white mutton fat was roasted into a golden color, with the edges slightly charred and exuding an alluring oily aroma. He pulled off two pieces with his teeth.
The fragrant oil is mixed with the tender mutton fiber between the teeth, forming a mouth-watering delicious taste.
Fei Qian chewed hungrily, and then ate the mutton pieces on an iron stick in a few mouthfuls. He threw the iron stick into the wooden plate, grabbed another one, and while eating, he faced Meng beside him.
Shu said: "Be lenient, feel free to do whatever you want, don't be polite."
After two or three rounds of eating, along with the large and small muttons, and a few bowls of water and wine, Fei Qian slowed down, picked up the wine bowl, and said to Meng Shu:
"If I go out to help someone, I'd be very grateful, and I'd rather drink it!"
Meng Shu raised the bowl and drank it all in one gulp, then put the wine bowl down. After pondering for a moment, he said straight to the point: "I heard that the general has the 'Old Qin Order', can you take a look at it?"
Fei Qian took out the Old Qin Order from his arms and asked his bodyguard to pass it to Meng Shu for viewing.
Meng Shu wiped his hands on his robe, then carefully took the old Qin Ling, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.
While Fei Qian was slowly chewing on the mutton skewers, he watched the unconcealable changes in the expression on Meng Shu's face, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart.
"In the past Jin Dynasty offered Duke Li Ji to the public, and she gave birth to Xi Qi. Later Li Ji stole the prince, and the prince hanged himself in Xincheng. Ji then defied Chong'er, and Chong'er ran away. Only then did he get the help of Duke Mu, and finally became the hegemony of the Jin Kingdom for a century." Fei Qian said slowly.
He said, "Now we know that those who run away live, and those who hang themselves perish. However, what happened in the pre-Qin Dynasty is so similar. If it had happened at that time, which one was right and which one was wrong?"
It was Li Ji who secretly worked for Duke Xiang of Jin and framed Prince Shen Sheng, while it was Zhao Gao of Qin who gave the prince Fusu the death penalty. Although the years were different, they were actually very similar, except that Duke Xiang of Jin also had a more capable person.
His son Chong'er, and the environment in the Spring and Autumn Period was not as bad as that in the late Qin Dynasty, so Chong'er became the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period.
Prince Shen Sheng is a tragic figure. He is a victim of Li Ji's conspiracy and the ideas he believes in. He already knows who the culprit is, but he is unwilling to resist for the sake of so-called righteousness. He could have survived by running away.
But he committed suicide to prove his innocence.
The same is true for Fusu.
Most of these tragic characters can only be found in social environments that value filial piety, kindness, and benevolence. They regard the moral principles they believe in as more important than life. They would rather die unjustly than let what they have done
It is detrimental to the object of loyalty and filial piety. From their standpoint, it is absolutely impossible to think of repaying tooth for tooth or evil for evil. The only thing left is to sacrifice oneself to fulfill others.
Such behavior is certainly valuable, but there is a question of whether it is worth the sacrifice. In fact, they can all have better choices. They can avoid being framed and give the conspirators their due.
punishment to show his loyalty to his father.
Meng Shu returned the old Qin order, let out a long sigh, and remained silent. Strictly speaking, Meng was the same at that time, and even the Great Wall Corps was a victim of such thinking.
"Those who destroyed Qin were not Han, but the generations of Zhao and Hu. If Chen and Wu had not rebelled, Chu and Zhao would have rebelled, and it was not the fault of the Meng family! The Meng family hid in the mountains and forests for more than 400 years to repay their kindness.
That's all!" Fei Qian looked at Meng Shu and continued, "What's more, the world is changing, the past cannot be admonished, and the past can still be pursued. In today's troubled times, evil is taking over, and it is not advisable to hang someone who is good.
Those who are angry and fight should do something. If the people are in mourning, support them and save them, save the world from falling, and make achievements for eternity. Naturally, we will do our part. I don’t know if you think this is true?"
Different people naturally use different methods, just like opening a lock with a key. If you use the wrong key, it will basically be useless. For Montessori, it is naturally different from other people. It is necessary for Fei Qian to preach such sage principles.
Such a high-level concept can untie the original knot, break the shackles left by the Meng family ancestors, and give them a stronger and better reason and direction for the future, so that the Meng family and the old Qin people they represent can
The deceased really joined in.
That's why Fei Qian said that there was no life-and-death relationship between Qin and Han. It was not others but the Qin Dynasty itself, Zhao Gao, Hu Hai and others who caused the demise of the Qin Dynasty.
Of course, the appearance of Meng Shu and others actually represents a sign and change in the thoughts of the Meng clan. Fei Qian's words were just a boost. So after Fei Qian finished speaking, Meng Shu lowered his head and said,
After thinking for a moment, he left the table and bowed, saying: "The general's words are like those of Huang Zhong Da Lu, which shakes away the dust and cleanses the ears and purifies the heart. I am sorry to be taught, but I am willing to join the general's command, fight on the battlefield, and make achievements."
Fei Qian hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and then encouraged Meng Shu again while ordering a banquet. For Fei Qian, who was well versed in the rules of the workplace, the banquet was naturally held to celebrate his previous military achievements and also to let Meng Shu
To better integrate into the team, Fei Qian also wanted to show his attitude through Meng Shu, so naturally he had to have a lively show.
At this moment, a soldier suddenly came forward to report that a messenger had been sent by the relevant authorities and presented a bamboo slip sealed with fire paint. The expression on Fei Qian's face did not change, but his heart couldn't help but jump...
