Chapter 30 Lixin

However, in two or three days, Jiao Lao Butu was completely convinced.

This inconspicuous-looking, like the donkey's wear, actually protects against the snow blindness that plagues the snow march.

When I first put it on, I was a little uncomfortable. It was dark all around, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

You can wear it for three or two days, and gradually get used to it, and the benefits of this thing will be revealed.

According to what Jiao Lao Butu thought, that is, rest for two days, and then leave when the sun is not so strong. It's just that the symptoms are not cured, the old ones are good, and the new ones will be gained.

At first, this thing didn't have any effect, but it cured the root cause, and after three or five days, no one was trapped by snow blindness anymore.

Playing with the blindfold in his hand, he thought to himself, this person is not a useless fool, and he has a little crooked ability.

This day has passed the Hetuala Station, after passing Shenyang, this pedestrian did not take the main post road to the north of Shenyang, but turned to the east.

Pass through Hetuala, go to Changbai Mountain Temple, take advantage of the winter to close the river, jump to the Mudanjiang River, and go down the river.

This post station is for the defense of North Korea, and this is the old nest of the Later Jin Dynasty, and Dashun can operate it here to prevent a resurgence.

However, when we arrived at the source of the Mudanjiang River, all the way to Handuoliwei where the Mudanjiang River joins the Songhua River, there was no post station.

I found a shelter from the wind at night, and after settling down, I lit a fire.

After getting acquainted with it these days, where Liu Yu sits, most people will come around. Or listen to him tell stories, or listen to him blow.

After contact, Liu Yu also understood that he could not use the impression of the soldiers of later generations to look at the soldiers at this time. When I talk to them about the righteousness of the monarchy, they don't even bother to listen to it, and they don't understand it.

will joke and say: Your Majesty will give us two taels of silver a month, and when the time comes, we will be worthy of these two taels of silver. How to be worthy of two taels of silver? If you can aim at it, it will be a model of loyalty and patriotism.

Touching the temperament of these people, Liu Yu often "drives". At this time, where have people heard those jokes, all of them are young and strong, and they are very addicted after listening to them, whether they are from mountains and seas, they have heard the taste.

When it was time to camp at night, where Liu Yu sits, it was the center of everyone. Sometimes it can be surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.

Jiao Lao Butu is also here today, and he has looked at Liu Yu twice in his heart in the past few days, but it is just a little bit. I think Liu Yu's "driving" joke is good, he changes his tricks every day, his words are hard, and he laughs from time to time, which is meaningful.

However, Liu Yu did not "drive" today, but looked rare and serious.

Behind him, a cauldron was boiling. The steamed buns are scalding towels with hot water, and they are giving hot compresses to those soldiers with severe snow blindness, and Liu Yu went by himself for the first few days, and he has changed the steamed buns in the past few days.

With the sound of the bonfire, Liu Yu looked at the people around him and said slowly: "That day, Lord Shu told us to stop and rest and relieve the pain of snow blindness. I said that I should hurry up early and not late, and I can't delay my business. I'm afraid that you must have scolded your mother in your hearts at that time, right? ”

On weekdays, even if they are mixed, some people dare to take the initiative to come to Liu Yu to ask for tobacco leaves, but when this sentence is said, no one dares to admit it after all.

After being silent for a long time, he said: "Don't blame your lord, how did we know that your adult had a plan at that time?" Got an eye patch ready for a while? ”

Liu Yu waved his hand, signaled that it was okay, and said with a smile: "Speaking of this, I think of an old thing." An army engaged, and an army withdrew to the river. The soldiers are hard, and their commanders will say that the soldiers are hard, and they can rest for two days and then build bridges. The soldiers all call this general who loves soldiers. Unexpectedly, the next day, the enemy attacked. The bridge was never erected, and for a time the blood flowed like a river, and the river was choked. ”

After telling this nonsense story, Liu Yu said: "As a general, you have to love soldiers." It's just that I love soldiers, I have big love, and I have small love. The great lover is invincible and invincible, and the soldiers follow the generals, and there are many rewards. You also know that whoever prevails, he dies less. The little lover pities the suffering of the soldiers and sympathizes with the soldiers, so that they miss the big things. Such a general, it is difficult for him to be a marquis, let alone those soldiers who follow him? On the contrary, there are many defeats, so that many of them die. ”

Speaking of which, although the people next to him understood this truth and felt that it made sense, they couldn't figure out how you Liu Yu was embarrassed to tell this story?

It seems that you are the little love general?

Jiao Lao Butu also listened to it confused, co-authored and slandered himself?

Unexpectedly, Liu Yu changed his words and said with a smile: "However, the real general of great love must not only be invincible, but also sympathetic to the soldiers." The two are not contradictory, but ordinary people can only do one or the other, but it is difficult to have both. As for Zhuge Wuhou, who has entered the Martial Temple, it is different. He saw that the soldiers were working hard to transport grain, so he designed a wooden ox and a flowing horse, and at the same time he could force Sima Yi to wear women's clothes, which was invincible. There are too few generals in the world who can have both. ”

"For the general, when the strategy is strategized. For example, since I am the main general, I must first complete the things entrusted by His Majesty, so that everyone will follow me, and there will be a reward; Secondly, we must be sympathetic to the suffering of soldiers. But for the sake of compassion, according to you, is it better to calculate all kinds of circumstances in advance and prepare in advance, so that you will not delay the march and not suffer from the march? Or is it that in order to sympathize with your hard work, you will stop and rest that day, and then stop to rest when the snow blindness recidivists? ”

On weekdays, I am used to blowing with the soldiers, if I say this with a cold face, I am a little ashamed, what kind of thing is actually comparing myself to Zhuge Wuhou? Do you deserve it?

But on weekdays, hip-hop is used to it, and although everyone laughs, it is only a half-joke. Neither bored nor abrupt, a few bold people even teased: "Yes, yes, if Zhuge Wuhou met Lord Liu back then, Jiang Wei would have to stand aside." ”

At this time, the Three Kingdoms had already been written and widely circulated, which can be described as a well-known story.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the army still worshiped the "Tianwang Hall", and the old army that Lin Chong took over when guarding the army's forage field also went to guard the Tianwang Hall, and the god of war was still Li Jing.

After arriving at Tumu Fort, the situation has changed, and the god of war is Yue Wumu.

However, the writing of "Three Kingdoms" is too good, the story is too wonderful, "Saying Yue" is far behind, and even the stalk of "why is the prime minister laughing" has been copied again, and now the martial saint is already Guan Yu, and the Three Kingdoms are even more well-known.

Liu Yu also knows that it is okay to talk to his father and others and talk about a few words of history.

Idle with these soldiers, or follow the Three Kingdoms.

Sure enough, everyone understands it, half-truths and half-truths, Liu Yu can't wait to conjure a goose feather fan and wave it a few times at this time, but it's a pity that there is nothing like this in the cold winter at this time.

Seeing that everyone had laughed, Liu Yu also said in a joking tone: "Before I came, I knew about this military affairs, so I pinched my fingers at home, knowing that the bitter cold in the north will have snow blindness, chilblains, and knee pain." I said that there is great love and small love for generals. Big love is more difficult than small love, and it is difficult to have both but big love, but if you can't even do small love, how can you still be qualified to lead? ”

Although it was a joke, it spoke to the hearts of these soldiers. On weekdays, chatting and gossiping, the soldiers must have complained, and the winter march is particularly hard, but those officers are okay, and they deduct some plus their own land and property on weekdays, at least they will not be too bitter in terms of food and clothing.

These soldiers are far behind, even if they are soldiers in the Beijing camp, they only have two taels of silver a month, and they have to support their families.

The soldiers and governments in the court are all scholars, and they think that the soldiers are just thieves, and it is good if they don't starve to death, so why spend a lot of money?

Even if it was the direct descendants of the Qi family army, the Zhejiang soldiers, when Wanli aided the dynasty, they said that they would be paid double salaries, but as a result, the court relied on the accounts, Jizhou made a fuss, and the three thousand Qi family troops were all beheaded, but some people in the court praised it: In this way, it can save 40,000 taels of silver, which is a great achievement.

Adhering to the Ming system, although it is not so far now, it is almost the same.

went north to survey and map deep into the Rakshasa, and one person was given an extra pair of cotton pants, and there was no more, and Qi Guogong couldn't get it.

Liu Yu has been communicating with these soldiers for a long time, knows what they want most, and knows their complaints. When it comes to snow blindness, knee pain, and chilblains, it really speaks to the hearts of soldiers.

The whole atmosphere was suddenly a little serious, but Liu Yu took out a few ingots of silver from his arms, placed them beside the bonfire in white flowers, and said with a smile: "Guess, before going on the expedition, I didn't think it would be so hard for you soldiers to go north with me?" Whoever guesses correctly first, I will reward him with five taels of silver. ”

This is all something that you don't have to guess at all, but if you usually blow it, someone will definitely answer. Now the silver of white flowers is in front of him, but no one dares to speak, they are all stunned and frightened.

Obediently, five taels of silver! How much money is it to cut off a head?

Someone in the crowd finally held back a word.

"Since Lord Liu is sitting at home and strategizing, he even thinks of such things as snow blindness, how can he not think of things like chilblains? I guess the adults have long thought about how hard it is for me to wait. ”

"Well said! This silver is yours! ”

With that, he threw the silver directly into the man's arms. The soldier only felt that his chest had been smashed hard, and he knew that it was not a dream, and he felt that this faintly painful bone was not smashed a few more times.

The soldiers next to him all looked stupid.

That's five taels of silver?

"Guess again, now that I know, what is in that box? If you guess the same, you will give five taels of silver, and whoever guesses first will get it. ”

All of a sudden, the number one hundred and ten people all set their eyes on the big boxes. I just guessed that this was Liu Yu's private goods, but I didn't expect it to be prepared for us big-headed soldiers? Is there really such an official?

Although this person Tian is shameless and compares himself to Wuhou, the soldier thought to himself, I don't want you to be really Wuhou, as long as you can be sympathetic and sympathetic to us.

Thinking about it again, I think it's a bit of that meaning.

With the example of Miki Lixin just now, they all guessed wildly for a while.

Some guessed cotton pants, some guessed cotton, some guessed the warm grass stuffed into their shoes, and even guessed whether there was a woman in it......

After guessing for a long time, few of them guessed correctly, Liu Yu laughed and let the steamed bun open a few bites of the box.
