Chapter 18: Pecans and Spinning Tops
When Yun Zheng came out of the mountain, he had completely become a mud figure, and when he saw Mr. Peng Li smiling at himself from a distance, he was embarrassed to wipe the muddy water on his face and walked over to meet Mr.
"How does it feel to be a literati a?"
"I am physically and mentally exhausted, but my sergeant Shu has always been despised by others, and there is no way out of the division, not to mention that the imperial court has not been examined for eight years because of the queen mother's honor guard, and it is also helpless to take the military attache road."
Mr. Peng Li slapped Yun Zheng with a smile and said: "I just asked, I was worried that you would not be able to accept it when you entered the army from a literati, and I was relieved to see that you were working hard as a teacher."
The whole world knows that you are wronged, but this is nothing, you are a civil and martial backbone, and there is a big difference between other military attachΓ©s, although you can rest assured, even if those civil officials are proud, they will not be proud of your head, besides, you are an army alone, and you will be incorporated into the royal forbidden army in the future, which is a bold attempt, since the national policy of our dynasty is to control the military with literature, why can't you form an army that is fundamentally under the control of civilian officials?
The old man has sent a letter to Jingzhong, spreading your suffering and grievances widely in Shilin, I believe they will have a standard evaluation of you, the only bad thing is that your poem may anger two people, one is Han Qi, one is Xia Zhu, one is a feudal official, and the other is a governor, you have to be careful.
Han Zhigui can still be regarded as a gentleman, but Xia Zhu is difficult to say, this person has suffered since he was a child, so he is extremely sensitive to external sarcasm, and when he is slightly angry, he will speak ill of him, alas, you, just don't let people worry, and mention the battle of Shuichuan well. β
Yun Zheng helped the old gentleman sit down, and said with a smile: "I originally planned to write about Tan Yuan's shame, but then I thought about it. used good water shame, so that only two people were offended, and there was no need to offend all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. β
Peng Li smiled bitterly, patted the stool next to him to let Yun Zheng sit down and said, "That's true." If you write about Tan Yuan's shame, you will indeed offend His Majesty and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and the history books say that this is a big victory! β
"It's a big victory, I didn't deny it, I just think that we won the battle and killed other people's generals, why didn't they lose money to us when negotiating, but we lost money to them, this doesn't make sense, the soldiers were bloody on the battlefield, and the result of fighting life and death was in vain. It's unfortunate to think about. β
Yun Zheng spread his legs, his trouser legs were full of mud, and he needed to be dried before knocking it down, Lang Lige was a crazy person at all, and he was full of food and Xiao Lin Biao. It's just that the brothers in Jiaziying have been trained very badly all day long, and Yun Zheng feels that his crotch has been blistered, and he is very uncomfortable.
Mr. Peng Li didn't care about Yun Zheng's image, and knocked Yun Zheng's head with his hand and said with a smile: "Gua Wazi, take money to buy peace, this policy is actually right." Do you know how much money was lost in the battle before the Tanyuan Alliance? The Great Song Dynasty has no ability to support such a battle anymore, since it has won, it will end well, and the Liao State has no money, and they don't want to fight, but no one relents at this time. If you don't let go, this battle will continue.
Do you know how dire the situation was? , Zhenzong was afraid of the enemy and wanted to move the capital to the south, Wang Qinruo advocated moving the capital to Shengzhou, and Chen Yaosu advocated moving the capital to Yizhou. Because of Tongping Zhangshi, Kou Zhun and Bi Shi'an insisted. I had no choice but to go to Lanzhou to supervise the war.
To be able to win a battle can be regarded as God's blessing, at this time, taking out 100,000 taels of silver and 200,000 horses of silk is really not the same thing, not to mention that the soldiers also shot Xiao Darin, more or less decently returned, the Tanyuan Alliance is a big victory, whether it is for the military or the government, it is a victory, and it cannot be slandered. β
Yun Zheng shook his legs and smiled: "In this way, as long as I am not ashamed in the Great Song Dynasty, it will be considered a victory?" β
Mr. Peng Li sighed and said, "I'm afraid that's the case." β
"That's easy, as long as we fight in the future to save face for Your Majesty, as for the victory or defeat, let him go with the wind, no matter what kind of battle we fight, we will be the final victors." If you can't fight, you can buy it with money, and if you buy it, let the other party automatically admit defeat, in the final analysis, silver is the best weapon, and it is much more useful than cavalry and hoplite. β
Peng Li knocked on Yun Zheng's head again and said: "You are not allowed to have such thoughts, don't fool you, now you have fooled the people of the world, and when people do not accept money at the last moment, it will be the turn of the people of the world to fool you." β
Yun Zheng scratched his hair, the dry soil on it fell down with a bang, and he waved his hand twice and said to Mr. Peng Li: "Sir, I am a person who loves cleanliness, and now I am as dirty as a pig rolling in the mud, I just don't want the world to fool me, the military system of the Great Song Dynasty is problematic, this is absolutely true, people who don't know soldiers lead the army, and it is strange if they are undefeated."
Now it is said that the elite of the forbidden army in Beijing, I don't believe it, sooner or later, I will let the people of the world see with their own eyes how vulnerable the forbidden army is, a city inhabited by millions of people does not have a steel-like defense line, that is the sorrow of the Great Song Dynasty, and it will also be the nightmare of the people of Kaifeng Mansion. β
Mr. Peng Li also put his hand on the back of his head and looked at the blue sky and said: "The old man has been wondering, is it not that the literary style of this dynasty is too prosperous, the style of good martial arts is gradually disappearing, and it is always unstable to walk on one leg.
Now there are border troubles, Kaifeng Mansion is shocked three times a day, what kind of Qingping and prosperous times! β
Yun Zheng smiled and drew a large Song Jiantu on the ground and said: "Simple, as long as you take back the sixteen states of Yanyun and rely on the Yanshan fortress, you can naturally ensure that the Liao State has no chance to invade again, and then destroy the Western Xia, take back the Hetao, and expel them all to the bitter cold land, Jiao Guluo's character is not considered to be the hero of the world, under the strong power of the Great Song Dynasty, he does not dare not bow down to the ministers, these three things are done, the situation you said will come, it's as simple as that, the problem is that no one wants to do it." β
Just when Peng Li and his disciples were discussing the army, the imperial palace in Bianliang City in Tokyo of the Great Song Dynasty turned into a noisy vegetable market, and the imperial historian was furious, eager to tear the music in his hand to pieces, one by one like a raging bull, with red eyes pouring out his anger on the emperor on the throne.
Chen Zhizhong, Jia Changchao hugged Beban and closed his eyes to recuperate, but the governor Wen Yanbo was observing the emperor's expression, and he was surprised to find that no matter how impassioned the imperial historians were, the emperor's face did not change in the slightest, but listened with interest to these people attacking Zhang Fangping and Liu Yucheng like crazy.
Sometimes when he heard some secret news, the emperor would actually show an interested look, and he listened to it with relish, and those imperial histories were even more excited, if it weren't for the eunuch Zou Tong to stop them, these people who didn't want to die even wanted to go to Dan Fan and theorize with the emperor in person.
Yu Shi Tang Jie was actually turning over the old accounts, accusing Zhang Fangping of taking care of people's lives in Liangzhou, using the Xiang army to charge the battle, and leading the old things that were all over the field, and finally said that Zhang Fangping had a typo when he revised the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, and he was a standard person who did not learn and did not know how to do it, and now he dared to let the scholars join the army, and the golden seal was branded, which was subverting the old system of ancestral legislation, and he had to go to Yazhou to fish.
The official family reclined on the throne, playing with a pair of walnuts in his hand, Zou Tong said that this was Lin Zhaorong's plaything, saying that often playing with it in his hand could reduce the emperor's headache.
When Zhao Zhen took it in the morning, he felt that this walnut was not simple, heavy, and listened to Zou Tong explain that this is a pecan, there are not many kernels in it, but it is best to play with it, this is what she used to go to the mountains to pick, and it took a lot of effort to find two of them with similar quality, and gave an interesting name called Lion's Head.
The two walnuts have been played with oily and slippery, the surface of the walnuts is bronze, and there is a faint dark fragrance at the end of the nose, needless to say that this is the walnut that Lin Zhaorong himself played with.
Two walnuts are a gift, but this heart is rare, and walnuts are also beautiful, Zhao Zhen saw this pair of walnuts, and remembered the spinning top he played with when he was a child, and the spinning top also accompanied him through countless difficult years.
This kind of thing that has little value, but the things that pour her heart and soul into are generally not given away, and if they can be given away, it means that this woman has poured all her thoughts into herself.
Zhao Zhen thought proudly, the walnut in his hand played more diligently, Tang Jie's nonsense swished past his ears, and it couldn't enter his ears at all, he was already thinking about how to take Lin Zhaorong to see his spinning top after the dispersal of the dynasty......
Wen Yanbo coughed and woke up Zhao Zhen, who was immersed in a sweet dream, he stretched his neck and glanced below, and found that no one spoke below, and Tang Jie, who could say the most, shut up angrily, and then said with a smile: "There is no increase in the tamping army, the young army is actually to increase some scholars as bones, and then dominate the Wusheng army, what kind of army is the Wusheng army, it is not a forbidden army, but a box army, full of no more than 10,000 people, but there are 30,000 families to feed."
I just want to see if the soldiers can inject vitality into the stagnant Xiangjun army and turn waste into treasure, Zhongqing's worries are a bit exaggerated, not to mention anything else, as long as everyone here also wants to dominate the Xiangjun, I have absolutely no opinion.
Since Zhang Fangping and they want to ask for their own hardships, then it is allowed, anyway, the money and food of the Xiang army are raised by the local government, and the center can't give much, the third division, allocate ten years of expenses to him at a time, and see what tricks they can play, more than 2,000 yuan is not too much. β
Wen Yanbo came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, how to determine the status of these scholars, please make it clear to Your Majesty." β
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "Yun Zheng, the general of the Wusheng Army, has made great contributions to the country, and it is not good to be persecuted too much, all the soldiers who enter the camp will be rewarded according to the civilian version, and the same is true for Yun Zheng." β
Tang Jie still wanted to speak, Chen Zhizhong coughed lightly, and he retreated to the court, Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "I issued a decree this morning, and promoted Lin Cai to Zhaorong, please use the seal to write the jade." β
