Chapter 1502: Crossing the River and Demolishing the Bridge
Ye Shikai's parents died, and he was alone at the age of eighteen, if the time cut-off point was at that time, maybe he really didn't want to go back, there was nothing worth nostalgia for, and it was meaningless to go back, however, Chen Yuxin was pregnant, and the unborn child was also Ye Shikai's flesh and blood, he had no reason to abandon it, in addition, there were those friends and brothers.
"If you say you don't want to go back at all, that's false. "To tell the truth, Ye Shikai is not a ruthless person, not to mention, there are many people in Yanjing who he misses, when he was inexplicably sent to the Qin Dynasty by that light, he didn't even have time to explain the situation to them.
"Husband, wherever you go, I will follow. A trace of solemnity flashed in He Linghan's eyes, and after speaking, she hugged Ye Shikai's arm tightly, and it could be seen that she was reluctant to Ye Shikai.
"Alright, Ling'er, I'll always be with you. Ye Shikai took her into his arms.
"Husband, if you really want to go back, then I will accompany you. ”
"Don't overthink it. Ye Shikai stroked her forehead, and frankly said, now he doesn't know how to go back at all, and it is very difficult to investigate, first he must find a cultivator, and he must also be proficient in "thaumaturgy" 's cultivators, for example, Xu Fu, but he should have crossed to Penglai now, not here, and even if he found Xu Fu, he might not tell Ye Shikai how to go back, not to mention, if people knew that Ye Shikai was from another era, it would inevitably affect him, and even kill him, so this kind of question can't be asked randomly, in his mind, the only person who can help him at the moment is Hua Liandie, but ...... How do you say that?
"You just stay at home and live a good life, if there is nothing in the barracks in the future, I will come back often, and you don't have to work too hard at home." Ye Shikai said with concern.
"You also have to pay more attention, the affairs in the barracks are busy, don't work too hard, listen to Xue San, you have been training prisoners recently. ”
"You know a lot. Ye Shikai flicked her forehead lightly and said softly, "Okay, you're hungry too, I'll cook it myself." ”
"Husband. He Linghan suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm, "Let's let someone do the cooking, you are now the master of the family, if you go to cook, it will be too inconsistent with your identity, or, I'll cook."
Ye Shikai almost forgot, this is the Qin Dynasty, the concept is different from modern times, if it is placed in modern times, it is also very common for husbands to cook for their wives, but in feudal society, cooking is not a job done by the master.
"Let the next person go. ”

Barrack.
"Old Ye, this is the list of troop supplies sent by the County Governor's Mansion, and I have already sent a sergeant to receive it. Ye Shikai took the bamboo slip handed by Shangguan Jian and opened it to look at it carefully.
"Why is there so much less, I command an army of 10,000, and I sent 12,000 stone of military rations last month, why is it that there are only 7,000 stone this month, and there are also ordnance, and it is only 60% of last month. After Ye Shikai read it, his brows furrowed, and he faintly burst into anger, logistics support is the basis of commanding troops, and there is no sufficient supply, so how can he lead the troops.
"Shangguan, what is the explanation from the county governor's mansion. Ye Shikai asked.
"Master Ma did not come forward, it was explained by the county Cheng, he said that the harvest in the county this month was not good, and the supplies sent to us could only be according to the standards of ordinary Qin soldiers. ”
"Damn. After hearing this, Ye Shikai directly threw the bamboo slips on the ground, which was obviously perfunctory, and now in order to prevent food from flowing into the hands of the rebels and robbers, each county has increased the collection of food in various villages, how can there be a shortage of food in the county, Ye Shikai is not a three-year-old child, not so easy to deceive.
"Lao Ye, in my opinion, the county was willing to have so many supplies before, so that we could train these prisoners with our hearts, but now that they see that it is effective, they will cross the river and demolish the bridge, and if it causes an accident, we will have to settle it. Shangguan Jian said what was in his heart.
"You're right, they don't want us to expand. Ye Shikai nodded in response.
"Lao Ye, now there are less than 50,000 garrisons in Dongjun, of which 10,000 elites are in your hands, among the remaining generals, no one has more military power than yours, will Lord Ma want to secretly calculate us." Although Ma Yao is not His Majesty the First Emperor, he is also the county lieutenant in the county, the leader of the army, he is very helpful to Ye Shikai, and his fundamental purpose is to keep his official position, and even seek promotion, as long as Ye Shikai is still under his command, then every time he wins, Ma Yao can get half of the credit, "good leadership".
But if Ye Shikai's military power in his hands is getting bigger and bigger, it will inevitably directly threaten Ma Yao's official position, until one day he takes his place, don't forget, Ye Shikai has also been favored by Meng Tian, as a general of the imperial court, the most trusted military general of His Majesty the First Emperor, if Meng Tian says something a little, it is not impossible to promote Ye Shikai, who has outstanding military achievements, to become a county lieutenant.
"Not yet, for the time being, the rebels and robbers in the county are still the number one threat to the county governor's mansion, if there is no me, how can Ma Yao's generals have the ability to deal with it. Ye Shikai waved his hand, Ma Yao is an "old fox", how could he do a stupid thing of "cutting off his arm".
"So what do we do now? ”
"Is the military rations sent enough? Ye Shikai asked.
"Reluctantly. ”
"That's okay, let's stop this month, and I'll talk to Ma Yao in person another day. Ye Shikai nodded and said, no way, he is also a general now, he can't "kill" to the county to "grab grain", Ye Shikai won't do this kind of stupid thing.
"Lao Ye, I'm afraid that even you won't be able to see us, if Ma Yao really wants to perfunctory us, it will be impossible to see us, and then he will just find an excuse to prevaricate. ”
"Alright, you go down first, give me some time to think. ”
"Okay. ”
"Report, Commander Wan Qi is out asking to see you. Suddenly, a guard came in and reported.
"Wan Qian is original, please come in. Ye Shikai said lightly, although Wan Qianyuan is a wolf clan, but the new commander of the cavalry team promoted by Ye Shikai by making an exception, as Ye Shikai's old team, Wan Qianyuan is in charge of two thousand iron cavalry, which shows how much Ye Shikai trusts him.
"See General Ye. ”
"Wan Qiyuan, did you come to me for something. Ye Shikai also knows him, this wolf man usually doesn't talk often, and he doesn't like to join in the fun, and his personality is a little withdrawn, but if he takes the initiative to come over today, there must be something big. I want to talk about "The President's Wife of the Personal Soldier King" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature", talk about life, and find confidants~
