Although there is a saying that you should not be embarrassed yourself, only others will be embarrassed, but when you really want to put this sentence into practice, it is often not that easy.
Take Liu Shao for example.
Normally, when Liu Shao arrived in Xu County, he naturally needed to report back to the emperor. After all, he went to Chang'an to recruit Zheng Xuan on behalf of the emperor Liu Xie. No matter what the outcome of this matter was, he needed to explain it, but Liu Shao was very worried now.
Awkward.
Because he came back to life, but he couldn't bring Xi Lu with him, he could only come by himself...
The reason given seems to be one thing, but it is not the same thing.
What's even more troublesome is that after being reminded by his friend Yu Yi, Liu Shao knew that there were some things he couldn't say, so he became even more embarrassed when facing the emperor Liu Xie.
"Therefore... Aiqing just brought this..." Emperor Liu Xie glanced sideways at the so-called five-element and five-color pastries, "Come to return?" Five-element and five-color pastries? No matter how many colors there are, they are still pastries.
!When I was a child, I could fool myself with a plate of pastries. Is this what you meant?
Liu Shao buried his head deeply on the floor, "I am... stupid and incompetent, please forgive me..."
The Emperor Liu Xie frowned, "That's fine... I support the whole world, and the whole world is Han, and I don't ask for any gold or silver utensils... But when I asked my beloved about Chang'an matters, the customs, and customs, I didn't know anything about it...
What on earth was Aiqing doing when he was living in Chang'an?"
"I live in the post office and never go out..." Liu Shao kowtowed, "I am... stupid and incompetent, please forgive me..."
"..." Emperor Liu Xie took a breath and managed to hold back his anger, "Ai Qing is in the hotel every day? Never goes out for a step?"
"...It's true..." Liu Shao still didn't dare to raise his head, "If your Majesty wants to know the situation in Chang'an, just ask Xi Liu and Xi Hongyu..."
"Haha...haha..." Liu Xie couldn't help laughing.
Laughing in anger.
"Stand back!" Liu Xie turned his head, not wanting to take another look at Liu Shao.
Liu Shao banged his head on the floor a few more times, then stuck his butt out and backed away.
In the main hall, light and shadow are divided.
Liu Xie's eyes stayed in the cut lights, and then looked at the fine flying dust flying under the light. He slowly changed from a sneer to a sigh, and then after a while, it turned into a grinding of teeth.

……彡(-_-;)彡……
In the Han Dynasty, knowledge was very precious.
People initially respected knowledge very much, and along with it, they also respected those who had mastered knowledge.
So in the Han Dynasty, those people had knowledge or relevant information?
It must be these noble officials.
Another example is Xi Lu.
If Xi Lu's identity is replaced by a common term in later generations, then Xi Lu represents a part of the public intellectuals in the current society of the Han Dynasty. He is responsible for sharing this knowledge, and of course some information, with those who need it.
, but in the process of sharing, he encountered some problems.
When Liu Xie wanted to see Xi Liu, he didn't mean he wanted to see him, but he could do so at any time. There had to be a process.
After all, no one can guarantee whether Xi Xi has malicious intentions and is ready to do something bad like Jing Ke, right? The necessary procedures still need to be completed, the process still needs to be followed, and finally Guangxi needs to be... uh,
The Shangshutai, Shaofu and Zhijinwu jointly reviewed and finally determined when Xi Lu met the emperor Liu Xie.
This reason is very legitimate, but no matter how legitimate the reason is, it is just a reason.
Normally, people want to obtain real knowledge rather than false information.
But this is more difficult.
Among the big Han people, if ordinary people speak inappropriately, at least a three-digit slate will come down, or at worst, someone will immediately follow the clues and check the household registration to see if there are vehicle and boat taxes, wormwood taxes, etc.
Pay the amount on time...
But there is a very interesting question. Some people can say some bastard things again and again. They are so bastard that even ordinary people understand that they are bastards. But there is not necessarily any problem. These people can still say it.
Wandering around outside, I won't be invited to drink tea. I'll just hang out outside every once in a while.
And some other people are subject to censorship all the time, and those who have even the slightest connection will be banned.
Just like now, if Xi Lu wanted to see the emperor, he had to meet Xun Yu first. Then Xi Lu discovered that when he arrived at the Shangshu Terrace, he did not see Xun Yu. Instead, he was taken to a side room with a
The old official with a serious face and a thin body was waiting for him. The purpose was actually very simple, which was to ensure that Xi Lu would not "say" something wrong or "do something wrong" when he saw the emperor.
Of course Xun Yu didn't participate in things like this. He just sent one of his officials to have a confession with Xi Liu and, uh, have a conversation...
"Hearing about the Xiqiang rebellion, the people of Longxi and Longyou are in dire straits?"
"This..." Xi Lu raised his eyebrows, "It has calmed down."
"Recovered? Have you seen it with your own eyes?" the old official asked.
"This..." Xi Lu blinked twice, "Never."
"Since you have never seen it with your own eyes, how can you conclude that the Qiang in Longxi and Longyouxi have been restored?"
"Hmm... ah..." Xi Su understood something, nodded and said, "So... the Xiqiang rebellion may not be decided yet... uh, it's not decided yet..."
"Shan. I heard that there is chaos in Hanzhong and Sichuan and Shu are uneasy?" the old official asked again.
Xi Lu was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly hesitantly, "There is chaos in Hanzhong, Sichuan and Sichuan... maybe..."
"Since there is chaos in Hanzhong, how can Sichuan and Shu be stabilized? Could it be that Sichuan and Shu can cross the natural chasm and reach Sanfu without passing through Hanzhong?"
"Sichuan and Sichuan are also in chaos." Xi Lu said with a frown.
"Shan. I heard that the Hussar wantonly slaughtered the big families in Sanfu, Hedong, and Longxi, so I stopped banning the sons of Sanfu, Hedong and other places from entering the official career..."
Xi Lu frowned and remained silent without responding.
The official was not anxious about the confession and continued to stare at Xi Liu without moving his eyes.
"I want to see Mr. Xun Ling!" Xi Lu said in a deep voice.
The old official seemed to have not heard what Xi Lu said at all and said directly: "Xi Lu and Xi Hongyu traveled a long distance and worked hard all the way. They accidentally felt the wind and cold, so..."
"Wait a minute!" Xi Lu stretched out a hand, "What are you going to say and what are you going to do? Why don't you tell me directly?"
The old official was silent for a moment, and then said, "I heard that the Hussar wantonly slaughtered the big families in Sanfu, Hedong, and Longxi, and banned the sons of the gentry in Sanfu, Hedong and other places from pursuing official careers. Therefore, you can't bear the humiliation. If you return to Xudu, what will happen?"
This matter?"
"..." Xi Lu took a long breath, "It is true."
"Shan. I heard that the people of Hussar are heavily taxed and have heavy labor, so they often flee. I wonder if this is the case?"
"...It is indeed true."
"good……"
……(;￢＿￢)(╯︵╰)……
In the fifth year of Taixing, winter.
The city wall of Shangyong is simple and can even be said to be a bit old.
On the official roads around the city, Zhang's soldiers were escorting carts in and out. Apart from this, there were no more idle refugees on the roads. Most of the "rioters" had been arrested at this time, from all over the country.
Officials said that good citizens are not allowed to go out. If anyone is found out, they will either be arrested or killed on the spot.
Because of Wei Yan's movement in the Hanzhong area, Shangyong's defenders were very uneasy and even suspected that the surrounding villages and counties had secretly had some contact with Wei Yan. Originally, the Han Dynasty was relatively loose with the counties.
The structure makes the Zhang family in Shangyong City have almost zero control over the local area. Under normal circumstances, it is not a big problem. After all, as long as taxes are paid on time, it is fine. But now, the shortcomings in this area make
The Zhang family in Shangyong City was restless.
In the past two days, more and more people have become soldiers, and even the Zhang family in Shangyong City has become even more crazy. Some innocent people were treated as spies, and some people were framed and killed directly, with their heads hanging on the
On the top of the city, corpses were discarded in the wilderness outside the city. Some of them had gradually putrefied, and were torn apart by unknown wild beasts, lying in pieces here and there...
Shangyong, like most Han towns, has a big city in the center, and is surrounded by fields and roads. Then along the intersection of rivers and roads, villages, counties and townships are formed. Then from Shangyong all the way to Fangling
, when it extends for about a hundred miles, it is close to the range of mountains and wilderness.
Lijiazhuang can be regarded as the most marginal village in Shangyong.
In order to implement General Shangyong's strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the country, clinging to the local area, and urging the concentration of the population, the transfer of supplies has become the most important task for Lijiazhuang at the moment.
The military clearing out the wilderness, no matter how reasonable it is, is like a disaster to ordinary people. No one wants to leave their accustomed home and the land they have cultivated for many years, so the order is naturally issued at the beginning.
Received resistance.
But military orders are military orders. When the military princes who were sent here to carry out the orders saw the procrastinating Lijiazhuang, they naturally ordered their soldiers to strengthen their supervision. Of course, this method of supervision was more vigorous whipping and drinking.
scold.
The sky is very gloomy.
Dark clouds obscured the sun, and a cold wind blew by.
The continuous sound of whippings and curses mixed with people's cries and cries of pain can, to a certain extent, be regarded as an effect of the work, and will cause those responsible for supervision to have a feeling of "everyone else is a fish."
They will even feel a special sense of pleasure because of this, even if this behavior does not directly benefit them much.
The military prince responsible for carrying out this work just wanted to complete it as soon as possible and then return to the relatively "safer" Shangyong City as soon as possible. As for whether there was any damage to Lijiazhuang during the process of clearing the country, and whether the personnel would
Death because of this, sorry, this is not within the scope of his consideration.
The situation in Hanzhong is becoming increasingly severe. The original "reinforcements" have disappeared one by one...
Just like Yuan Shu back then, when he was the most powerful, he seemed to be the Baba of everyone. From south to north, from east to west, everyone seemed to be Yuan Shu's people. They were all sincere when they paid to call Baba.
When things get serious, he becomes a grand thief.
A relatively complex political issue like this was beyond the ability of a small military prince to understand. He just hoped to complete it as soon as possible and return quickly, but his hope was quickly dashed.
The centurions, who were obviously the vanguard, appeared on the hillside outside Lijiazhuang. The warning sounded harshly in Lijiazhuang. The military prince, whose face suddenly turned pale, stared at the soldiers on the hillside in the distance.
tricolor flag…
What appeared here in Lijiazhuang was the lightly-armed Zhu Ling cavalry unit from Wancheng.
Zhu Ling had experience in long-distance raids, and he was also quick-witted. He had learned a lot from Tai Shici. Moreover, these cavalrymen were not new recruits, and some of them were soldiers who had previously attacked Xu County.
, because he was injured and stayed in Wancheng to recuperate, he has now returned to the team and has experienced the test of life and death. It is like a steel knife that has been tempered, becoming tougher and sharper.
The biggest difference between the conscription system adopted by Fei Qian and the garrison system of the general Han Dynasty is that one is active participation and the other is passive and helpless. In the Han Dynasty, one was to serve as a "guard" in the central government, and the other was to serve in border counties.
One way to "garrison" is to serve in the same place, but no matter which way, it is a passive response, and it is difficult to say that there is a proactive idea.
But the recruitment system is different. Especially after Fei Qian focused on increasing military pay, equipment, and the award of military merits, serving as a soldier has even become a new way out for poor people. Efforts to gain merit in battle can even change the entire original poverty situation.
Family’s class status!
Most of the ordinary soldiers in the hussar army are extremely identified with, worship the hussar, and are eager to fight. Therefore, their combat effectiveness and morale are far beyond those of ordinary soldiers of the ordinary Han Dynasty.
Therefore, when they encountered Zhang's troops from Lijiazhuang, Zhu Ling's two forward teams, Mao San, and Hou Wu, decided on a strategy almost in the blink of an eye...
"My plan is that we divide into two sides and kill them directly. We don't have to kill many people, we don't have to stop, and we don't care about the warnings. We just rush in. Well, that's it."
Mao San made imaginary gestures on the left and right sides of Lijiazhuang with his hands, as if he was imaginatively slashing both sides with a knife.
Although when Mao San described his plan, it even seemed a bit like a cold joke, because strictly speaking, it didn't look like a plan at all, but Hou Wu on the other side nodded seriously, as if he heard it
Like a good plan with clear steps and a reasonable structure, "Yes, I agree, I will be responsible for the left side!"
They think this matter is very serious and there is nothing funny about it, because both of them are trying their best to imitate the words and deeds of the higher-level military generals, just like Zhu Ling imitating Taishi Ci...
"Action!" Mao San nodded, then whistled and headed to the right.
"Let's go! Drive! One team will follow you!" Hou Wu also greeted the other team and started to move to the left.
The two teams separated, and the sound of horse hooves gradually accelerated, and then became faster and faster.
On the outside of Lijiazhuang, there were some chaotic Zhang soldiers who were rushing towards the village. However, they were only halfway through when they heard the sound of horse hooves coming. They were so frightened that they started crying for their fathers and screamed for their mothers. They even rolled around and abandoned their helmets.
A ran to the village, but there was no time...
Mao San roared and quickly closed the distance. Zhang's soldiers who were lagging behind turned around and tried to slash at Mao San with their swords. However, they were slapped obliquely by the shield in Mao San's hand, like hitting a tennis ball.
, he was knocked straight out diagonally with the knife and the man, and fell to the ground. Before he could struggle to get up, the horse's hooves as big as a bowl had already fallen in the air!
The team outside Lijiazhuang was annihilated almost instantly, but Mao San and Hou Wu's horse hooves did not pause at all. The front of the troops extended, and some of the cavalry on horseback put away their swords and guns, took out their bows and crossbows, and fired at them.
He shot at Zhang's soldiers hiding in sight.
Two rolling torrents poured into the village from the left and right sides of Lijiazhuang. Under the churning of the horses' hooves, the thick plasma and yellow dust were combined together. Some Zhang's soldiers who tried to resist were cut open by swords and killed.
The horse's hoof trampled it and it collapsed immediately.
A group of people with shabby clothes, even some tatters, stopped and looked back in the direction of Lijiazhuang. They thought at first that their home was finally destroyed by these people and was about to be burned down, but they soon discovered that it was not.
Not like that. Those extremely vicious Zhang soldiers ran away in panic. The broken soldiers fled from outside the village to inside the village, and then quickly ran from the inside to the outside of the village. They were overtaken by the cavalry and chopped down in the withered fields.
, as simple as a farmer cutting down the crops.
Immediately, the cavalrymen rushed towards this side without any pause, carrying blood and murderous intent. Although the number was not large, they were like hundreds of thousands, frightening those who originally urged Lijiazhuang to be whipped.
The soldiers of Zhang's family who were migrating with the common people were so distraught that they howled and fled in all directions...
A military lord, the smaller ones are divided into left and right camps, with 200 people, the larger ones are divided into left, right, front, middle, and fifth tuns, with 500 people. The military lords who came to Lijiazhuang are considered medium-sized, with about 300 people, while Mao Sanhe
Hou Wu only led a team of fifty. Although cavalry has an advantage over infantry when the infantry has not successfully formed a formation, Zhang's army, which collapsed almost instantly, has indeed shown that even if it is
Similar equipment, differences in morale and training will also cause huge differences in the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.
If you raise your sight to the sky, you will see that at this time, east of Shangyong City, these cavalrymen holding high the three-color flag are pushing a bloody road, with beacon fire, galloping horses, rout, and blood.
Like waves, like fire on the grassland, rolling, devouring, burning, surging towards Shangyong City.
Outside Shangyong City, there are even many queues going to carry out the task of strengthening the walls and clearing the country. They have not yet received the order to return to the city or received the warning message...
This rapid and violent attack state is part of Taishi Ci's key to commanding the cavalry.
It also became the cavalry knowledge passed down to Zhu Ling...
