Chapter 800: Expedition
In that year, the three ladies of the Guan family and the little lady of the Zhang family fought at the top of Jincheng, and the three ladies of the Guan family were supported by many heroes, taking advantage of the time and place, and easily defeated the little lady of the Zhang family.
forced the little lady of the Zhang family to finally have to retire to Nanxiang.
After the three ladies of the Guan family got what they wanted, they thought that the overall situation had been decided, but they didn't expect that the little lady of the Zhang family, who was far away in Nanxiang, was taught the secrets by the Empress of the Han Dynasty.
After several years of hard training, Zhang Xiaoniang finally succeeded, so she re-emerged and challenged Guan Ji, who had become the head of the meeting.
This time, Zhang Xiaoniang's skills not only increased greatly, but also learned the lesson of the rebellion and separation of relatives back then.
Not only did she use her strengths to split Kwan Ji's supporters, but even in the foreseeable future, a considerable number of people will turn to support her.
This incident perfectly interprets what feng shui is called in turn, don't bully the boy, well, the girl is poor.
Of course, before Guan Ji married into the Feng Mansion, she could determine her status as the eldest lady of the Feng family in advance, and naturally she could not do it by relying on her muscles alone.
Although Feng Huishou noticed her unusual pectoralis major muscle when he saw her for the first time, this was not the point.
The point is that when she was able to defeat Zhang Xingyi, Xinghan would make a lot of contributions.
For example, when Jincheng was full of rumors that Feng Yong and the three ladies of the Guan family were a pair made in heaven, it was spread by the Xinghan Society.
Coupled with the fact that she has been sitting firmly in the position of the head of the Xinghan Association over the years, Guan Ji naturally knows where her basic plate is.
Although she was shocked when she heard Feng Yong say "Xinghan will not be a great Han family".
But after calming down, Guan Ji was still very quick to gauge the information in his favor from these words: it was very likely that the Xinghan Society would clash with the future Han Wang clan in the future.
This is an extremely important piece of information.
Perhaps only the most trusted person is qualified to know Ah Lang's opinion.
In the future, Zhang Xingyi will be a supporter of the Han Wang clan, and the Xinghan Association will naturally be the basic plate of Guan Ji.
Therefore, Guan Ji said that those families were close to Zhang Xingyi, in fact, they were taking precautions and putting a label on Zhang Xingyi, so that Zhang Xingyi could cut off Zhang Xingyi's idea of getting involved in the Xinghan Society in the future.
Feng Yong didn't point out Guan Ji's careful thoughts.
Even if he stabs something, he has to think of the aftermath, not to mention this matter?
He just asked: "Those families have the support of the royal family behind them, Xijun, don't you be afraid of saying this?" ”
"Afraid of what? No matter how much the royal family supports those families, can they still let them dominate? Guan Ji sneered, "Didn't Ah Lang just tell the concubine that it's not a good thing for one party to be dominant?" ”
"I think when the Xinghan Club first got up, didn't the royal family also support it as strongly? The queen of our Han Dynasty is not an ordinary person. ”
Feng Yong nodded: "That's right, Zhang Jiawen, Guan Jiawu, I have a deep understanding......
Xinghan will stand side by side with the Han family, the royal family is balanced in the middle, and the three-legged stand is the most stable.
From the support of the Empress of the Han Dynasty to the Xinghan Society in the past few years, and now the support of the little lady of the Zhang family to the future Han family, the women of the Zhang family are really extraordinary.
"Heh," Guan Ji sneered, "Guan Jiawu is naturally right, but this Zhang Jiawen, others used to say that it was the third lady of the Zhang family." ”
"But I don't know, who is Zhang Jiawen that Ah Lang is talking about now?"
"The woman of the Zhang family, who else can there be?" Feng Junhou yawned and replied vaguely, "I'm tired to death, I slept and slept......"
Guan Ji kicked him hatefully.
Feng Junhou gritted his teeth and held on, only thinking that he was dead in his sleep, and did not dare to say anything.
Although Guan Ji was quietly calculating at night, when she faced Zhang Xingyi the next day, she was still a sister.
After all, the so-called Han Xinxing clan is just an idea.
Even in the Xinghan Society, which was one step ahead of the Xinxing Wang family, he was qualified to be called an important minister of the imperial court, and there was only Feng Junhou alone.
The remaining few can barely be called political stars, and they are not qualified to enter the court deliberations.
Therefore, the things that Feng Junhou and his wife imagined at night did not know what year and month it would take to happen.
Or is it more important in front of you, for example, the breakfast in front of you is very good.
The millet porridge was boiled fragrantly, and Zhang Xingyi drank it happily.
The soy milk turned a light red color because of the brown sugar, and Guan Ji squinted and savored it.
Feng Yong only drinks white rice porridge, although sometimes he wants to drink millet porridge, but if that is the case, he has to drink another bowl of brown sugar soy milk.
Amei doesn't have this scruples, she can drink whatever she wants, but two tea eggs are indispensable for breakfast every day.
Tea bricks, which are precious in the eyes of the Hu people, are just condiments used to boil eggs in Feng's mansion.
Holding half an egg in both hands, just stuffing it into her mouth, this is a girl who is not picky.
A worm is different, eating eggs only eats egg whites, and while Guan Ji is not paying attention, he will secretly pick off the egg yolk with his hands.
"What a good thing, the children of the common people don't even know what the chickens look like, you kid is picky."
Guan Ji half regretfully and half reprimanded Ah Worm as she picked up the egg yolks scattered on the small table of the stroller and threw them into Ah Mei's bowl.
Amei noodles do not change color, and they eat them when they pick up the bowl.
Someone couldn't get used to the main room bullying the concubine room, so he kicked Feng Junhou at the bottom.
Feng Junhou was stretching out his chopsticks to clip a bun, but he was kicked by this kick and his hand was crooked, and the chopsticks were directly inserted into another bun.
Feng Yong snorted, and seemed to be very disapproving of Guan Ji's words:
"Isn't it just a chicken? That's what it says. A few years ago, there was some truth in what he said, but now who doesn't raise a few chickens and ducks? ”
"No matter how bad it is, there are five or six geese, although geese don't like to lay eggs, and the goose eggs are not as fishy as chicken and duck eggs, but you can always taste the taste."
"This kid is picky, Xijun, you let him eat it by himself first, come, this is a bean paste bun, you eat it quickly."
Feng Junhou was very considerate and put the wrong bun into Guan Ji's bowl.
"Thank you, Alang."
Guan Ji, who likes sweets, took a bite, her eyes narrowed again, and it seemed that the buns were very palatable.
Feng Yong fixed the chopsticks in his hand, and then re-clamped the one he wanted.
The continuous increase in iron smelting output over the years has not only benefited the military, but also promoted the popularization of new production tools and farming methods.
Now new production tools and farming methods have been very popular in Dahan, and the grain production in Shuzhong has been increasing year after year.
When there is more grain, the people will be able to raise some poultry and livestock, so agricultural and sideline foods will also be abundant.
Unlike in previous years, when the green and yellow were not harvested, bran was used to fill the stomach and save lives, who was willing to use it to feed poultry?
Guan Ji finished eating the buns, turned around and fed Ah Worm again, and said in his mouth at the same time:
"That is, Ah Lang, you are qualified to say this, try it for someone else? A person who doesn't know the people's suffering can't run away. ”
"The chickens and duck eggs in the people's homes are all useful, who is willing to put them in their mouths?"
"But ah, thanks to Ah Lang's hard work over the years, the people of our Han can eat, and life is much better than before."
It is a fact that the people of Shu have begun to raise more chickens and ducks in the past few years, but it is also a fact that the people themselves rarely have the opportunity to taste poultry eggs.
Because most of the eggs in their hands were carefully saved, and when they had saved enough, they used them to offset their taxes.
Over the years, poultry eggs have been used in dry food, and poultry feathers have been used in blower down jackets, which are all strategic materials related to the country.
Therefore, the government allowed the use of poultry eggs and poultry feathers to deduct taxes.
This policy not only allows the government to solve some of the shortage of raw materials, but also allows the people to keep an extra ration at home, which is a good policy for a win-win situation.
As for the opening of a farm, even if Feng Yong made public the technique of wishing the chicken, only the rich and noble people in Shu would dare to touch it, and it was the kind where several families joined forces to share the risk.
And in a place like Longyou, where the cold time is too long, poultry can be raised on a large scale, and at present, only the Huqiang Captain's Mansion has such ability.
Otherwise, chicken plague, duck plague, and swine fever will come, and all the hairy ones will die.
The family has a lot of money, and it doesn't count with hair, is it a joke?
The ordinary rural landlord Lao Cai really dares to touch this thing stupidly and boldly, and all the livestock will die overnight, not to mention retreating to a state of extreme poverty, and the decline of the family is inevitable.
So these raw materials such as dry food blowers, down jackets, etc., really need to be collected with great effort.
The prince and his wife were talking about people's livelihood, but the big secretary next to them had other ideas.
Hearing Feng Yong say that Guan Ji was not, the big secretary was happy in his heart.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when Guan Ji turned her head to feed Ah Worm, she also secretly put a bun in Feng Yong's bowl as a reward.
"Over the years, even barbarian lands such as Nanzhong have used Quyuan plows......"
When Guan Ji said this, his face was full of pride, and he wanted to praise virtue as usual to show his extraordinary.
"No more nonsense! What kind of barbarian land is Nanzhong now? Now I don't know how many people want to go there and open a garden to grow sugar cane! Eat fast, eat fast! ”
Feng Yong sandwiched another bean paste bag, gagged her mouth, and then turned to Zhang Xingyi:
"After eating, go over and give your sister a hand, so that your sister can have a good meal."
Zhang Xingyi hurriedly answered, got up and went over to take the child's rice bowl from Guan Ji's hand.
Zhang Xingyi was very skillful in feeding the insects over there, and Feng Yong also carefully fed Shuangshuang a mouthful of rice soup here, and asked:
"Is the autumn grain to be harvested this year sure that it can ensure the supply of rations for the Hu tribe in winter?"
Zhang Xingyi is really integrated into this family now, even if Feng Yong didn't name him, but who he said this to, several people can hear it in their hearts.
I saw the big secretary carefully wiping the rice grains on Ah Worm's face, and replied indifferently:
"Brother-in-law, when it comes to farming, apart from you, how many people in this big man can compare to Xu Erniang?"
"After conquering Jincheng, she has already led people to open up land on the east side of the river, which is specially used to grow bamboo heads."
On the edge of the Yellow River, water was diverted to grow bamboo heads instead of staple grains, because there were Cao thieves on the other side at that time.
Even if the land is damaged, the damage will not be too great.
The only pity is the fertilizer that fell down.
Because the requirements for water and fertilizer are not generally high.
However, for the Guardian Commander's Mansion, which controls more than a dozen grasslands, fertilizer is the most scarce.
But if you can get away with keeping that piece of land, it will be a big profit to prepare for famine and emergency food.
Now it seems that Xu Erniang's original decision was the most correct.
"Xu Erniang has already assured me that there will definitely be no problems with the rations of the Hu tribe for the winter this year."
Zhang Xingyi wiped Ah Worm's face clean, and then showed a satisfied smile, it seemed that in her eyes, this problem was not as important as the rice grains on Ah Worm's face.
But it's okay not to mention the head, as soon as he mentioned this, Feng Yong remembered the dry food that Xu Xun recommended to him at the beginning.
There is also Xu Erniang, a Han agriculturist who has a unique feeling for planting seeds.
Feng Yong suddenly felt that his mother-in-law was right, the people of the Han Dynasty were actually very happy to be able to eat real food.
Although he cried to Zhao Dudu that the military rations were not enough, as a highly independent captain of Huqiang, Feng Yongzhen wanted to say that he did not have a little backhand, then he was really blind to the rights granted by the prime minister of the Han Dynasty.
There is not enough food to make up.
The big deal is that when you fry the dry food with the noodles, put two more drops of butter and mutton fat lard or something, and then mix some more salt.
Feng Junhou believes that those Hu people, who have not eaten enough for most of their lives, can't taste the difference at all.
What if someone could taste it?
Whose food hasn't been a little damp? What's wrong with the taste a little worse?
Don't want to eat?
Do you want to eat bran?
Do you want to eat a horsewhip?
Do you want to eat the saber?
Don't want to eat, just want to eat good?
Then join the servant army, and then save enough military merits to become a real Han soldier and enjoy the supernational ...... Ahem, superhuman treatment.
Military merit, and only military merit, is the fastest way to cross the class.
Where to find military exploits?
The battlefield is not moving.
Now there is such a good opportunity, an opportunity to quickly obtain military merits: the Captain of Huqiang is preparing for the Eastern Expedition, issuing a conscription order, and forming a volunteer army.
As long as it is under the rule of the Huqiang Captain's Office, regardless of Han Hu, and those who have the conditions at home can bring their own horses and weapons to join, and the military rations are responsible for the government.
As soon as the news came out, Longyou immediately became a sensation.
Because in the past, the Guardian Qiang Captain's Mansion issued several conscription orders, all of which were prioritized from specific tribes, and others who wanted to join could not get it.
The Hu leaders wanted to reap the benefits, the Hu warriors wanted their families to change to Han nationality, and the Han people wanted to join the household registration in the Xinghan Hui system.
Coupled with the many heroes of Liangzhou, who doesn't know that Nanxiang County, which was rebuilt by Feng Junhou himself, is a holy place for rangers?
The so-called heroes of chivalry, for the country and the people, who purely want to follow Feng Junhou, are not nothing.
So there are a lot of people who want to join the Volunteer Army.
These days, Pingxiang City is several times more lively than usual.
At the same time, the pressure on public security in Pingxiang City also began to increase, after all, those who are willing to come to the army to have a promising future are indispensable to that bit of blood.
What do you see?
What are you doing?
The situation of drawing a sword at a disagreement at a glance is inevitable.
However, the handling of this situation by the Huqiang Captain's Mansion has always been the simple and rude inheritance of Nanxiang.
The guys who dare to make trouble on the street are usually greeted by a sergeant who came out of nowhere and are directly thrown to the ground.
Even if someone wants to rely on his skills, but under various means such as fishing nets, long hooks, numbness, and poison, he must admit it.
Disturbances on the street are not a bad incident, and under the current special circumstances, the parties are often interrogated on the spot.
"What's your name?"
Those who recognize the situation obediently sign up, and if there is a guy who wants to show his unyieldingness, he is directly greeted with punches and kicks.
I only heard the leading sergeant sneer:
"Ah Weng, when I killed the thief in front of the battle, I carried the leader of the people in one hand to lead the merit, and the other hand held the military rations to eat, what is your ability to do so in the eyes of Ah Weng?"
The man who was beaten to the point that his nose bleeded finally replied: "I am also here to join the army." ”
"If you join the army, you go to the school outside the city to sign up, what kind of hero is it to make trouble on the street? Hurry up and follow me. ”
After that, he sent the people to the army with half a charge and half a send.
In the camp of the righteous army, there will be people who teach them all kinds of rules, and if they can pass the screening, they will stay, and if they can't pass, they will get out.
There are also grades in the volunteer army, and those who have responded to the call several times and performed well will be independently compiled into a roster, which is the reserve of the school captain's office.
After being recruited, the salary was one line lower than that of the regular sergeant.
Some of them will also be singled out as the leaders of those new entrants.
This time, whether it was the Modao Battalion, the Wudang Battalion, the Cavalry Battalion, the Engineering Battalion, or the Guards Battalion and the Dark Night Battalion under the direct command of Feng Yong, all of them had to be dispatched.
The school field outside Pingxiang City was full of people.
After Feng Yong returned to Pingxiang, the officers and men of all battalions in the army of the Captain's Office, excluding the wounded and sick, all began to make the final preparations before the expedition nervously.
The generals in charge of each battalion are in the barracks for food and lodging, and they are ready to obey the orders of the leading troops.
Even Feng Yong and Guan Ji have been going to various camps every day for the past few days.
The cavalry battalion that returned from the river-crossing operation was the focus of the two's inspection.
"Idiot, with a horse pedal, don't clamp your crotch so tightly, this is your horse, not your mother-in-law, what do you do so hard? Use your strength on your waist! ”
In the camp of the cavalry battalion, Zhao Guangzheng pointed at a squad of soldiers and scolded, foul language, endlessly, full of old **, blind with a good skin.
The repeated battles in the past few years have added two scars to his face, and it seems that this guy does not have the perverted dodge attribute of his Lao Tzu.
Yang Qian, who led Feng Yong and Guan Ji into the camp, was a little embarrassed and coughed, "General Zhao." ”
Zhao Guang turned his head and saw Feng Yong and Guan Ji dressed in men's clothes, and hurriedly changed his face and trotted over: "Brother, ......"
Guan Ji raised his eyes.
Zhao Guang suddenly looked serious again: "The last general has seen the prince!" ”
Feng Yong nodded and gestured over there: "What's the matter with those soldiers?" Is there anyone in the cavalry battalion who is not adapted to the new harness? ”
"Back to the prince, it was just drawn from the reserve of the righteous army, but there are more than a dozen people, so it is not in the way."
Zhao Guang explained, then turned around and instructed Yang Wan, "Wei Ran, you let people continue to train them, don't relax." ”
Then he personally led the two to inspect the barracks.
"Brother, this time the movement is so big, isn't it really about to enter Guanzhong?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more tense day by day, Zhao Guang couldn't help but ask quietly after all.
"Is this something you should be worried about? Prepare well, and just listen to the military orders when the time comes. What you should be worried about now is the soldiers of the cavalry battalion, have they all rested? ”
Feng Yong reprimanded as he inspected the camp.
Up and down the school captain's mansion, only Feng Yong and Guan Ji knew the complete battle plan.
Even if Zhao Guang's relationship is not ordinary, if the secrecy regulations should be enforced, it is still necessary to keep it secret.
"This crossing of the river is no different from ordinary actual combat training, but there are dozens of casualties, and a rest of two or three days is enough."
When Zhao Guanggang said this, he saw that Feng Yong's face was a little wrong, and hurriedly explained:
"Brother, just rest assured, after coming back this time, not to mention the soldiers in the battalion, but every war horse in the battalion, the younger brother has carefully inspected it."
Feng Yong's face looked better, and he nodded: "This is like words." ”
Zhao Guang patted his chest and slapped the stainless steel cover properly: "Brother, don't you know the little brother?" ”
"I don't dare to say anything else, but in this matter in the army, the younger brother is confident that he will not be left behind."
Feng Yong glanced at him and said, "I believe in you because I believe in the old general's vision, and it has nothing to do with whether you are my junior brother or not. ”
After all, Zhao Guang finally got the recognition of the "First Emperor's Main Horseman", and it was no longer the shame of the Zhao family, if even he couldn't bring the cavalry battalion, then others couldn't bring it.
"This time we are out of Xiao Pass, there is Yue's City in front of Xiao Pass, have you forgotten how you lost the general number in the first place?"
Zhao Guang was hit by his brother's critical blow, and he snorted, not daring to brag about it anymore.
After inspecting the camp, Feng Yong took the lead in the watchtower.
The tower not only overlooks the entire cavalry battalion, but even a part of the arrangement of the volunteer army not far away can be seen.
Seeing Feng Yong's gaze fall over there, Erlang Jun of the Zhao family, who thought that he had endured it for a long time and hadn't spoken, finally broke through:
"Brother, will there be too many volunteers recruited this time?"
"You know what? I do this for a reason. ”
Feng Yong moved his gaze back from that side, a thoughtful look on his face.
The big movement of the Huqiang Captain's Mansion this time made many people feel that this time the Eastern Crusade would not be as simple as the previous ones.
In the past two years, the Captain's Mansion of Huqiang has been fighting in the east and west, soothing Hu Anmin, and attacking Liangzhou.
Especially after the capture of Jincheng and Xiping counties, the Huqiang Commander's Office began to have formal contact with the Hu people in the northern grasslands.
The original restrictions on the establishment of the army were no longer enough to adapt to the current situation, and after Zhang Xingyi officially took office as the secretary, he won an opportunity to expand the establishment of the Qiang's school governor's office.
The formal strength of the army has been expanded from the original 10,000 to 20,000.
The Longyou Governor's Mansion, which was nominally one level higher than the Huqiang Captain's Mansion, only had a quota of 30,000 soldiers.
Coupled with the 50,000 people in Hanzhong, most of the Han forces were on the front line of the struggle with Cao Wei.
This time, Hanzhong was in a cautious defensive state because of the arrival of the Son of Heaven.
The Longyou Governor's Mansion must not only guard against the four counties of Liangzhou in the west, but also prevent the Cao thieves in the east from crossing Longshan, and at the same time go south to reinforce Hanzhong at any time, which can not be moved lightly.
Therefore, in this campaign, the Commander's Mansion of Huqiang belongs to a strategic mobile force and has a heavy responsibility.
Feng Yong understood this very well, and this time he pressed almost all the military forces at hand.
At the same time, the servant army was greatly expanded, and the young and strong of the Hu tribe were drained as much as possible.
After all, the Hu people of Liangzhou have a long tradition of rebellion, and they have only been tamed a little bit in the past two years.
Who knows if there is no strong bullet pressure from the Guardian Captain's Mansion, will someone make any demon moths?
Walking the rivers and lakes, safety first.
Dear Hu Davari, the time has come to show loyalty to the Great Han!
And follow me into battle to kill the thief, and come back to issue you a big Han green card!
At the beginning of September of the eighth year of Jianxing, Feng Yong, the captain of the Han Dynasty, led tens of thousands of horses and horses, preparing to cross Longshan and reach Xiaoguan.
