"My lord, it is difficult to send troops at this season!"
"Yes! It's extremely cold today. If the food route is cut off..."
In the big tent, all the generals were talking.
The Duke of Xu, Zhang Chumao, was sitting at the top. He was wearing a jade-white coat and his black hair was meticulously styled. His majestic body was like a hill sitting there.
He raised his eyes slightly and hummed softly.
All sounds disappeared in an instant.
Zhang Chumao gently placed the military report on the desk and said coldly: "Your Majesty ordered us to wait until we leave Xuanzhou in order to knock down Beiliao's arrogance! We are afraid of the cold, even worse than women! That's
dog!"
The generals stood with their hands tied.
It was so quiet inside the tent that you could hear a pin drop.
Zhang Chumao said calmly: "We are all going to patrol the camp. If something goes wrong, I will speak with military law."
"Take orders!"
The sound of the friction and collision of armor gradually faded away, and the tent became quiet.
The staff member He Zun who had been sitting next to him stroked his beard and smiled, "Only the majesty of the Duke can suppress these arrogant soldiers."
Zhang Chumao was silent for a long time, "The government troops mobilized from various places this time are uneven and not as good as the border troops. What is Chang'an thinking? Why not regulate the government troops all over the world so that the fittest will survive!"
He Zun sighed, "My lord, the foundation of the military system is the granting of fields. Where is there any free land in the world? Without the fields, there will be no soldiers. Even if there are countless problems...but who can
The solution? Give them the fields in other people's hands? My lord, those powerful people look so ugly. You must know that a family's wealth will not last long, and the world's wealth is the king."
He looked at Zhang Chumao with a look of expectation in his eyes.
Zhang Chumao changed the topic, "The queen in the palace has been in a bad situation recently. That bitch seduced Your Majesty, damn it!"
The disappointment in He Zun's eyes flashed away, "The Duke is the son-in-law of the Yang family in Yingchuan. This means both loss and prosperity. Your Majesty loves the imperial concubine, but cannot do anything to the queen. I thought I could ignore the imperial concubine.
, it’s just a plaything.”
Zhang Chumao nodded, "The most important thing about sending troops this time is the food road. I don't worry about it elsewhere, but we have to be careful in Chenzhou. Horse thieves, foreigners, if anyone takes action, the food road will be cut off in an instant. You go to Chenzhou
, supervise and urge everyone to protect the food roads."
He Zun knew that this was punishment for his previous words.
He stood up and said, "Yes."
…
"Fire the arrow!"
At the foot of the mountain, dozens of soldiers let go.
"A bow is broken!"
A sergeant raised his hand, and the crude long bow in his hand was deformed.
Nan He said with a dark face, "Change it."
There were more than a dozen scrapped earthen longbows piled beside it.
Later, Nan He went back to look for Yang Xuan.
"Where's Mr. Lang?"
Wang Laoer squatted at the door of the backyard and laughed, "Master is practicing etiquette."
Nan He coughed dryly and went in immediately.
Wang Laoer said from behind: "Lang Jun wants to go crazy and Yi Niang wants to kill someone, so don't go in."
The voice was very low.
Yang Xuan is practicing sitting posture.
"Mr. Lang, you should lean back slightly, so that you look majestic."
Yi Niang stood by and taught.
Poor Yang Xuan has been a wild child in the countryside since he was a child. Where did he learn such etiquette? He leaned back slightly and felt uncomfortable all over.
"Yiniang, I really don't know how to do this."
Another person, Yang Xuan, could throw her out, but this is Yi Niang!
Yi Niang carried him out in that long bloody night with a basket in hand.
Yi Niang had blue veins popping out on her forehead. She clenched her hands into fists and squeezed the rag in her hands until it dripped.
"Mr. Lang, you must persist, otherwise it will be too late to learn again."
If it were another person, Yi Niang swore that she could beat him to death with one palm, and she practiced etiquette diligently from then on.
"Mr. Lang!"
"go out!"
As soon as Nan He spoke, a black shadow flashed in front of his eyes, and he subconsciously reached out to pick it up.
Boom!
That thing exploded.
Nan He's face was covered with sewage. He looked at the rag in his hand and said numbly: "I have something to ask you to see your husband."
"Just right." Yang Xuan stood up instantly, "Yiniang, wait until I come back from the discussion."
Yi Niang was dumbfounded. After the two of them went out, she suddenly burst into laughter.
"Back then, no matter how many people paid me to teach etiquette, my husband seemed to be on the run, hahahaha!"
She laughed heartily.
Zhang Siniang also thought it was funny and pursed her lips.
Yi Niang smiled enough and pulled her in.
"Come, I'll teach you etiquette."
"Stand still."
"Don't move your upper body when walking."
"Yiniang."
"Um?"
"They taught me to move around. The more violent the movement, the better. They also said it was best to shake."
"Those are idiots, vile, forget them."
"oh!"
"Wait a minute! Those who are moving around, you can go after Mr. Lang in private."
"oh!"
Yang Xuan and Nan He arrived at the front yard.
"Lang Jun, the long bow we made is not good!" Nan He said with a bitter smile: "We don't have isinglass, good bow strings, and good materials. Not only can the long bow not shoot far, but the accuracy is not good enough."
Yang Xuan also has some numbness.
"It's okay for the horse thieves. Those tribes are even more fierce and skilled with bows and horses. If we didn't have bows and arrows, we would be in trouble." Nan He pointed out the biggest problem of the current death camp very seriously.
There are no ranged weapons.
"Where is it?" Yang Xuan asked.
"Zhouli." Nan He said, "Zhouli has inventory, and we can also make it in Zhouli."
"I'm going to catch the autumn breeze."
Yang Xuan immediately set off with his people.
…
"Xu Guogong's army is dispatched. I, Chenzhou, have a grain road. Horse thieves and tribes are a big threat. I, Chenzhou, are ordered to organize troops to patrol everywhere and guard the grain road."
At Zhousi, Lu Qiang handed over the documents.
"The grain road should be protected by troops. What's the point of letting the local government protect it?" Liu Qing threw the document directly on the table and said dissatisfied.
Lu Qiang smiled bitterly, "Xu Guogong went to the eunuch and said that the troops were too few, so he handed over the responsibility of guarding the grain road to the local government."
"Damn it!" Liu Qing couldn't help but cursed: "This is a battle formation, not a personal grudge. No matter how much hatred or dissatisfaction there is, you have to hold it in and endure it."
"Those noble people." Lu Qiang smiled and pulled the scar on his face, looking particularly ferocious, "As long as those noble people have some overall situation in their hearts, land annexation will not become more and more serious. The Tang Dynasty was weakened, but
Fatten them."
"Your Majesty." A petty official came in, "Yang Xuan, the magistrate of Taiping County, wants to see you."
"Why is he here?" Liu Qing was surprised, "The messenger should be arriving in Taiping County just now."
Lu Qiang said with a smile: "Your Majesty praised him last time. I'm afraid that the young man will go too far and come to ask for something."
"Haha!" Liu Qing said calmly: "What do I rely on to rule a state? Fairness, fairness! If a bowl of water is uneven, you will fight for it, and then everything will fall into chaos."
"Your Majesty."
Yang Xuan came, and after saluting, he said kindly: "Don't look more and more handsome. Your Majesty... Your Majesty is actually much younger."
Lu Qiang gave Liu Qing a look, and said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, please tell me."
Liu Qing coughed dryly and touched his face, "I'm busy! Talk!"
Yang Xuan sat down and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Chenzhou is in a difficult situation! It can be said that it is impoverished, and the court turns a blind eye. It is really impossible to live this life..."
Liu Qing stared, "Let's get to the point!"
The old guy is pretty good!
Yang Xuan coughed twice, "Your Majesty, I only have about thirty sergeants in Taiping. There are five hundred people in the so-called death camp, but those are all human prisoners. The most fatal thing is that they have no armor, no bows and arrows, and no horses... If they are enemy troops
When an attack comes, a lower official will not hesitate to die for his country, but when Taiping fell, Zhangyu County on the left and Huilong County on the right became isolated armies, and Taiping became a wedge for the enemy to invade Chenzhou..."
Liu Qing knocked on the table with an unkind expression, "I'll give you twenty sets of armor, fifty long bows, and war horses... I heard you got more than a hundred horses over there? Do you still have the nerve to ask for them!?"
"Twenty sets?" Yang Xuan's eyes widened, "Your Majesty, how can twenty sets be enough?"
"That's enough. By the way, the army is going to attack the Northern Liao Dynasty. I have a grain road in Chenzhou, and your Taiping County is on it. Go back and prepare your troops. Once the grain and grass are sent out, you will protect the grain road. I tell you, this kind of thing
Once something goes wrong, it's not just the law, it's the military law, so get out."
Guarding food routes?
Yang Xuan made some calculations in his mind and knew that an army like the death camp that lacked protection and long-range weapons was too dangerous.
"Your Majesty..."
Liu Qing shook his head, "You have to know, if Taiping County is given to you, will other places come and ask me to give it to you? Fairness, this is my motto in charge of Chenzhou, go back."
Yang Xuangan smiled and said: "I heard that the envoy often scolds the civil servants in the state. Most of them are because they don't do well in writing documents and make the envoy worry about it. I have a good idea here. If you don't give up..."
Liu Qing said calmly: "What's a good idea?"
Yang Xuan stretched out five fingers and said, "Five hundred sets of armor and five hundred long bows."
"Dream." Liu Qing said coldly: "If you can do it, two hundred sets of armor and three hundred long bows."
Yang Xuan nodded, "A gentleman's words!"
Liu Qing sneered, "It's hard to chase a horse!"
Lu Qiang smiled and said: "What can you do? Can you still stay in the state and take those subordinates with you?"
"Your Majesty, I only need two days."
"Huh?" Liu Qing was startled, then waved his hand, "I'll give you two people to try, if it's not right, it's going to go where it's coming from."
hehe!
Yang Xuan smiled very innocently.
"good."
He immediately took two minor officials and began to retreat.
"Young people are always full of pride. No one can beat him. Let me do it." Liu Qing smiled and then put the matter behind him.
Lu Qiang smiled, "Your Majesty is not so patient with others."
Liu Qing said calmly: "Most of the officials who come to Chenzhou do so reluctantly, which is similar to being exiled. Yang Xuan was the first to take the initiative. Regardless of whether he is stupid or whatever, I will give him a high look."
Yang Xuan made a room and ordered Wang Laoer and the old thief to take turns guarding outside.
In the duty room, two clerks were sitting carelessly, thinking this was a good opportunity to be lazy.
Yang Xuan knocked on the table.
The two raised their heads.
"Wen has no permanent form, thinking has form, and water has no permanent form, and the utensils have form."
Yang Xuan said slowly: "What I want to teach you today is... the routine!"
In the headset, Suzaku said: "Since ancient times, deep love cannot be retained, only routines can win people's hearts. You have read a lot of official documents of this era, from those in the court to those in the local government. They seem to be complicated, but they are always the same. Routines.
one……"
Yang Xuan spoke slowly.
The two clerks were stunned at first.
Gradually.
The eyes of the two of them burst out with brilliance.
