Chapter 123: If you don't go north, then you can only ...... under
In the fifth year of Zhongping, September 11.
In late summer and early autumn, the hot temperatures have disappeared, but the chill has not come, and the cool and cool weather makes people feel drowsy and comfortable.
In the city of Ruyang.
In the lobby of the county government, there was a teenager sitting in the hall, the young man's two panda eyes were very obvious, and there were all kinds of drawings in front of his desk, most of them were marching drawings, and he was holding a pen and drawing pictures on it.
"It's still much more comfortable for me to deduce business strategies in the past, and there are computers that can simulate them, but now, with a little bit of news that I don't know whether it's true or false, and there are unclear topographic maps, it's too nerve-wracking to deduce a war deployment!"
Mu Jing stood up, soothed his stiff hands and feet, and said with a sigh.
The shopping mall is like a battlefield, and he, a genius businessman in the previous life, once deployed countless strategies in advance in order to win a acquisition war, but that is different, there are many things that can be done by relying on computers, and now, he can only rely on his head.
"Are you still thinking?" Zhang Ning walked in with some breakfast, sat down on his knees, and then brought out a bowl of porridge and a meatloaf in front of him, before saying: "Don't think about what you can't figure out!" ”
"I feel uneasy!"
Mu Jing said: "I always thought I was a chess player, but in the end I felt that I was a chess piece, I was unwilling, so I had to find out what I felt uneasy about!" ”
"Breakfast first!"
"No more!"
Mu Jing put on his boots, took a cloak, and said, "Let's go out for a walk, it's too stuffy here!" ”
"You really want to play a play!"
Zhang Ning beckoned, asked the two soldiers to clean up the things on the table, and then followed Mu Jing's footsteps.
"Yesterday another army was stationed!"
"I don't know where it is?"
"Look at the number of the flag, it seems to be an officer and soldier!"
"It's best if it's not a thief army!"
"Hey, my family has let those Yellow Turban thieves loot three times, and even my brother was captured by Qingzhuang!"
"In the current year, there is no difference between officers and soldiers and thieves, we still have to be careful, don't provoke them!"
“……”
The city has been sacked by the Yellow Turban Army several times, and most of the people are nervous about the entry of this strange army and horses.
"What are you thinking?" Zhang Ning asked.
Mu Jing walked down the street, looked at the somewhat bleak streets around it, and replied, "I was thinking, it takes time to build a prosperous city, and desolation is just a matter of war!" ”
Ruyang is also a big city in Runan County, with tens of thousands of households and a population of more than 100,000, but after experiencing the garrison of the Yellow Turban Army, it is now not as prosperous as an ordinary small city, and there is a lonely atmosphere everywhere.
Many large families in the city were looted.
Many shops in the city are closing.
Under the brilliant hearts of the people, how can this city not be lonely.
"This is all done by the Yellow Turban Army!"
Zhang Ning was dressed in a graceful white robe, his handsome face was a little gloomy, and his mood was difficult to be depressed, and he said to himself: "Did my father do something wrong?" ”
The Yellow Turban Army, that is the soldiers and horses created by his father, this army of soldiers and horses quickly became an army and almost overthrew the Han Dynasty.
She has always been proud of his father's achievements, but looking at this scene, even if she is a little numb, she has to admit that the Yellow Turban Army has begun to deteriorate, and it is no longer the righteous army that his father gave high hopes for, but a thief army.
There are clouds in the world, and yellow turbans cross the border, like locusts, leaving not a single grass.
In the past, she thought that this was a sentence that the imperial court could spread to suppress the reputation of the Yellow Turban, but now, she gradually recognized this sentence.
"The great sage and good teacher have done nothing wrong!"
Mu Jing shook his head and commented decently: "Where there is oppression, there will be resistance, the Han Dynasty has come to an end, the people are miserable, naturally they have to resist, the great sage and good teacher just obeyed the mandate of heaven, even if there is no great sage and good teacher, there will be a leader like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang in the past to lead people who are unwilling to submit to fate to resist!" ”
"Then father, why can't he succeed!" Zhang Ning asked.
"Success is also destiny, defeat is destiny!"
Mu Jing said: "The water can carry the boat, but also can overturn the boat, he won the hearts of the people, but he does not know how to maintain the support of the people, in the past, the yellow scarves passed everywhere, are the people who responded, and now the yellow scarves are crossing, like locusts, this is the truth!" ”
"If only my father were still alive, I would have heard you!" Zhang Ning's smile was a little pale: "You may be more suitable than him to lead the Yellow Turban!" ”
"I want to be good, my father is good, in this troubled world, I just want to survive, our own survival, the survival of more of us!"
Mu Jing said indifferently.
"I'm hungry!" Zhang Ning pursed his mouth, and Shi Shiran's words diverted the topic.
"There's a shop there, Ruyang Cookies, I heard it's a must-have here, let's try it!" Makijing shrugged and pointed to the small shop that opened across the street with few customers.
"Shaoqu Shuai!"
Huo Shao led the guards to protect him, he looked at the yellow scarves around him, and he was a little worried.
"You don't have to keep up so closely, we are in control of this city now!" Mu Jing waved his hand and said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Huo Shao nodded, but still followed.
"Guest, do you want rice crackers?"
The boss was a thin man with a humble smile on his face, and when he saw Mujing Zhang Ning walking in, he hurriedly greeted him.
"I heard that your sweet rice crackers here are a must in Ruyang City, come and try a few!"
Mu Jing said with a smile.
"Okay!" The boss's ability to observe words and expressions was already good, and when he looked at the dozen or twenty fierce soldiers wearing armor and holding large swords outside the store, he suddenly dared not slack off.
"Huo Shao, I'm scared of the shopkeeper, it's not easy for people to do a little business, you are so blocked, is anyone still coming, go out!" Mujing Road.
"Shaoqu Shuai......" Huo Shao looked around, the environment here is not very good, if there is an enemy, the assistance will not be timely.
"Get out!"
Mu Jing held the power of the army, his voice was angry, and he became angry, even if he was a master like Zhang Huo, I am afraid that he would be afraid of half a point.
Huo Shao had no choice but to withdraw, but a pair of eyes stared at it with bare eyes, ears pricked up, ready at any time, and rushed in whenever there was a problem.
"He's loyal to you!" Zhang Ning said with a smile: "Your ability to buy people's hearts is even better than my father!" ”
"Do I need such a trick to buy people's hearts, I have a natural personality!"
Mu Jing said narcissistically.
"No shame!" Zhang Ning gave him a roll of his eyes, and the momentary style made people quite fascinated.
"Here comes the cookies!"
The boss of the scenery walked up with the sweet cakes, these sweet cakes seemed to be circled, although they were made of rice, but they looked good, but I didn't know how they tasted.
"Taste it!"
Mu Jing handed one to Zhang Ning.
"Good!" Zhang Ning was not polite, holding a sweet cake in his slender hand, covered with long sleeves, and took a bite of the snack: "The taste is very fresh, it is not greasy to eat, it has a taste better than dim sum, it feels more than rice, it is a good thing!" ”
"It's delicious, then we can settle down in the future, I will definitely ask an uncle from Ruyang to make a sweet cake for you!"
Mu Jing said casually.
"That's what you said, I remember!"
When Zhang Ning heard this, his curved moon eyebrows raised, and he was cute.
"Definitely!" Mu Jing said very resolutely.
After about a quarter of an hour, the two of them each patted their little stomachs.
"Shopkeeper, check out!"
Mu Jing took out the money bag.
"This ......" the boss walked out tremblingly and said, "No need, it is a blessing for the two distinguished guests to come to our store!" ”
He is a small business, naturally not so arrogant, but these soldiers they really can't afford to provoke, some time ago a person in a wine shop in the city just inadvertently settled the bill, was beaten to death by a few soldiers, this matter is not small, but the garrison in the city is not a serious thing at all, but it is over, dead in vain, he is naturally afraid.
"Shopkeeper, don't be like this, we are not a thief army, there is discipline in the army, we eat the people's things, if we don't give money, we will eat military sticks, don't hurt me!"
Mu Jing could see the boss's thoughts at a glance, and his face was a little helpless, so he had to persuade with a smile.
There are some things that are hard to get rid of once they have an impact.
"How much is a cookie?" Mu Jing didn't wait for him to react, and asked strongly.
"Eight dollars a piece!"
"We ate a few!"
"Six!"
"Here's a hundred bucks!" Mu Jing took out a string of money.
The five-baht coin is strung with ropes, one thousand is consistent, one hundred is a string, and ordinary consumption basically has nothing to do with gold cakes, and this time it is the money recognized by the people.
"Not so much!" The boss was trembling, and hurriedly wanted to uncover the rope and divide the five baht coins to return the excess to Mu Jing.
"No need!"
Mu Jing waved his hand: "I will reward you with more, but I have a question I want to ask you, if you know, you can answer me, if you don't know, it's okay!" ”
Maybe it was Mu Jing's attitude that was too good, and he removed the vigilance of many shopkeepers, and he hurriedly said, "Childe, please ask!" ”
"It seems that there was a soldier and horse stationed in the city before, do you know when they left Ruyang?"
Mujing: This is a question that suddenly sounded.
"There is indeed a soldier and horse, but they are not as good at talking as these soldiers and horses of Gongzi, they are often killing people and plundering, and many big families in the city have been killed by them!"
The boss is actually a good talker, and after Mu Jing removed his guard, he said, "It seems that they left Ruyang seven days ago!" ”
"Where to leave?"
"It should be Seongnam?"
"Seongnam? Are you sure? ”
"That's right, I went to see it, and they did leave the city from the south of the city!" The boss said firmly.
"Thank you, shopkeeper!"
Mu Jing took out a string of money again, handed it to the boss, and said, "If there is still a chance in the future, we will definitely come to patronize!" ”
With that, he left with Zhang Ning.
"Benevolence and righteousness!"
The boss looked at Mu Jing's back, held the five baht money in his hand, and sighed a little.
"What did you find?" After leaving the store, Zhang Ning looked at Mu Jingyanjun's expression and asked in a low voice.
"I suddenly thought of a blind spot in my thinking!"
Mu Jing said as he walked: "We have always believed that the strength of the Yellow Turban Army of the Huang Shao Department is in the north of Runan, so his enemy is the Yingchuan Army and the Xuzhou Army, but what if they are not on the battlefield in the north? ”
"No battlefield in the north?"
Zhang Ning frowned, thinking very clearly: "Impossible, if their army does not go north, then it can only be ......"
In an instant, the faces of both of them changed.
