Chapter 228: Two Years Later
Time flies, since joining the Zhao family army and becoming the scout leader, Meng Ge has been in this side for two years. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Next to him is Zhao Lei, who has grown into the prime of life and has lush hair around his mouth.
They were now squatting in a canyon covered with yellow sand, waiting to pick up Yu Yang and the others who had come to transport firearms.
Two years is enough to change a lot of things.
For example, the Yuan army, which was like a wolf and a tiger before, was driven out of the pass, and it was the Western Liao army that replaced it.
The northwest is a place full of yellow sand and flying soil. When Meng Ge and the others first arrived, they were not used to such weather, and after months of thirst in the desert, they were able to recover.
Here, drought is commonplace. finally found a water source, and everyone was reluctant to pour a little bit of water on themselves except for drinking a lot of water.
Even if their bodies were already stinky and knotted, they only dared to take out a cloth towel and wipe it with water.
Occasionally, when they find big rivers and lakes, they dare to go into the water and play freely.
However, Meng Ge, who had already grown into a big girl, did not dare to be so presumptuous. Even if she smelled the stench on the note, and felt the uncomfortable sticky feeling of her lower ~ body that had not been cleaned for a long time, she didn't dare to risk washing it.
Unless, when the night comes, after the big guys have gone to rest, she will hurriedly rinse it with urine, and wash the dirty underwear by the way.
One thing that is good about the Northwest is that it is dry enough, and it is almost dry enough to blow wet clothes and pants in the wind for an hour.
In the Northwest year, Mengge's originally smooth skin, as well as his little face that was too porcelain-white and soft, were already dark and unpresentable.
Originally, Meng Ge didn't want to spend a day like this. However, Zhao Jiajun's strong and progressive progress made her happy to stay here.
It only takes half a year, and after half a year, this great Song Jiangshan will be stable. At that time, she will be able to take advantage of the situation and retreat with her younger brother to live in seclusion, leaving this past behind.
It is said that in the past two years, Meng Mao has been very capable, and he has been able to independently lead a pair of men and horses to ambush near the army.
Of course, the missions that Meng Mao can dispatch are generally not dangerous. Otherwise, Meng Mao would not allow it.
In fact, there is no danger, and it is not completely dangerous. At least it doesn't hurt lives.
Thinking of a stable life after half a year, Meng Ge smiled. She waited for this day for five years.
In the past five years, Meng Ge has relied on this same idea to persevere. As long as the country is stable and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, then she will no longer need to worry about this turbulent country.
At that time, she only needs to guard Meng Mao's side, find a famous doctor for him, and ask someone to find the younger brother who may still have time.
Two years is enough for a young boy to grow into an adult. Yu Yang is fifteen years old this year, and it is a good year.
Originally, the family genes were very good, and in the army, he had been well fed and clothed for many years, and he had trained a great physique, and he was also tall and strong at this time.
It took two years for Meng Ge to take care of Yu Yang, and he got into the position of joining the army.
This is all the feats that Meng Ge brought Yu Yang to ambush on the road as much as possible with his team of only 100 people during the Battle of Youmen Pass, and fought guerrilla warfare with the Yuan army.
The human life in his hands, from the beginning when he even had to close his eyes and tremble and did not dare to make a dead hand, to now he is the first to rush forward when he sees the enemy, and the cumulative total is more than 2,000.
Such a huge number earned him the rank of general, which is also very commensurate.
Of course, he really can't count how much of this place he took with his own hands. Several times he cooperated with Meng Ge, and the people Meng Ge killed and cut off the ears were all thrown to him.
For this, Yu Yang is extremely grateful to Meng Ge. She knew that he was in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, and wanted to give them a role of protection after the world was settled.
Of course, Yu Yang also knew that Meng Ge was unwilling to make meritorious contributions, and he was afraid of being entrusted with important tasks. Her status does not allow her to bear these glories.
Therefore, Yu Yang accepted Meng Mao's results with peace of mind.
Except for Yu Yang and Zhao Lei and Meng Mao, in the past two years, Wang Ran and Meng Ji have both sat in the position of captain, a fourth-grade military attaché, and their rights are not big.
This is the official position of all levels that Zhao Jiajun re-established after defeating the Yun army.
Wu Chang (in charge of five people), Shi Chang (in charge of ten people), centurion (100 people), 1000 commanders (1,000 people), Captain (general of a battalion), left and right deputy lieutenants (generals of a government), Du Wei (Zheng Sipin, in charge of the soldiers of a government), deputy governor (from the third product to the third product, the deputy of the governor), the governor (from the second rank to the second grade, equivalent to the position of a general), the deputy capital Tong (from the second product to the first product, the general), the capital Tong (the first product, the generalissimo)
Of course, these ranks are only the ranks of military attachés. What General Zhao meant was that certain official ranks in the court were still retained.
All civil official ranks were inherited from the previous dynasty.
After the imperial court is rebuilt, those official ranks or something will be further refined.
The two teenagers who became four-grade officials have really made their own achievements in the past two years, and their own family origins, coupled with that foundation, it is reasonable to be able to sit in such a position.
What Meng Ge couldn't understand was that General Yu was now also a Zuo Du Lieutenant. As long as the war is over, if he continues to stay in this position, he will be able to command the army of the whole government and send him to the local government to do whatever he wants.
Zhou Changan followed him and changed from a commander to a captain, but his rights did not change, which made him very depressed.
When the war was in full swing, it was quite chaotic. Many people took the opportunity to make some small contributions.
For this reason, the subordinates of General Yu (now Captain Yu Zuo) have also been more or less promoted.
After hearing such good news from the front, Meng Ge led people to burn down the forage houses of the enemy camp again and again.
The reason why all the fodder is burned is not grain, because grass is the horse food for war horses, but grain is what the people rely on for survival.
After so many years of disasters and wars, food is even more rare, and Meng Ge is reluctant to waste a single grain.
She only thought that when the two armies faced each other, she would bring people to bring the food back.
Two years is enough for General Zhao to buy people's hearts. Those acquaintances who wanted to establish a new regime, but knew that they did not have that ability, or could not compete with the Zhao family's army, had already surrendered to General Zhao.
Those people had some hopes, or those who thought they could control the Zhao family's army, were still wreaking havoc on the territory of the Great Song Dynasty.
The people finally waited for a good year, and because of the care of General Zhao, they also planted food, which can be said to have been temporarily stable.
Of course, it would be better if the so-called mountain bandits who were hiding and peeping in the shadows were not so rampant.
