Chapter 116: It's You!
"When the charcoal kiln collapsed, hundreds of charcoal workers died, and only my ancestor Shaojun survived."
Dou Rong chattered about his seventh ancestor Dou Guangguo being sold when he was a child, becoming a coal digging slave, and almost being buried by the collapse of the black coal kiln, which was the origin of the Pingling Dou family, and he was also a relative of the Han family two hundred years ago.
However, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, this family has declined, and it has risen again in Dou Rong's generation and has become a new upstart.
Fifth Lun responded: "This shows that Zhang Wuhou has his own blessing of great luck." ”
Dou Rong said with a smile: "No, it's only because I was young and weak that I was squeezed out of the kiln when I was fighting for a lying position, so I was able to survive." ”
Dou Rong only whispered to Fifth Lun: "Bo Yu, isn't he still blaming me for stealing credit?" ”
Wu Lun hurriedly said: "Why did Duke Zhou say this, with hundreds of people in my camp, how could I make thousands of Hu Lu retreat? Indeed, thanks to Zhou Gong's timely southward departure, if he changes to other captains, the road will be delayed for several days, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Dou Rong sighed: "But it is a fact that I shared the Lord of Boyu, and General Gengshi also gave me the old part of Liangqiu to manage, and Rong felt ashamed." ”
"But don't worry about Boyu, I have already written to Da Sikong and stated Boyu's achievements, hoping that he can say a few words for Boyu when the court rewards him."
first send warmth, climb fellow villagers, and then tell stories to get closer to the relationship with the fifth Lun, and now they have begun to move out of the forces behind them to recruit the fifth Lun.
Fifth Lun has already sensed Dou Rong's intentions, could this guy also have a crush on Xin Qinzhong?
"It's great to have a backer." That's right, it's amazing, Fifth Lun's heart is sour, the miscellaneous army raised by his mother is really miserable.
Seeing that the wind and snow outside had stopped, he resigned from the obstacles, and only said to the fifth Lun when he left: "I have heard that Boyu loves soldiers, I also love soldiers, Boyu Tuntian, I also Tuntian, you and I always coincide in everything, and our ambitions are similar. ”
After that, he took his leave.
On the way back, Dou Rong was in a very good mood, and after coming to see it in person, he decided that Wu Lun was indeed a good general of the Biansai, and he took care of the broken side wall in an orderly manner.
"This world is also like a charcoal kiln that may overturn at some point, once it collapses, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will have to be crushed to death."
"And I should also learn from my ancestors, and sleep on the edge a little, it seems colder, but it is actually safer."
Dasikong Wangyi has already replied, saying that Dou Rong's promotion to the rank of Lord has been confirmed, and his plan to stay in Xinqin has become most of it, and if nothing else, Wu Lun should be able to be a lieutenant under General Dou.
"Boyu is with me in everything, and he is famous, and he is quite loved by the people of New Qinzhong. If I can get his assistance, repair soldiers and horses, practice war shooting, protect Qiang Hu outside, and cultivate benevolent government inside, wouldn't it be easier for me to succeed in my plan to protect the clan in the west of the Biansai River! ”
……
Time has come to the end of November in a blink of an eye, and the first year of the emperor is about to pass, and the reward from the imperial court has finally arrived at Biansai.
Surprisingly, the person who came to reward the emperor this time, in addition to the yellow gate in the palace, there is also a marquis: Zhandehou Wang Sa (sà).
Of course, I don't know anything about this person, but when it comes to Wang Sa's aunt, everyone knows about it, that is, Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty and Wang Zhaojun, who was pro-Xiongnu. After Wang Zhaojun became a symbol of harmony between Han and Hungary, her family also soared, and when Wang Mang arrived, he named Zhaojun's brothers and sons as marquis, one called Heqin Marquis, and the other called Zhande Marquis, and sent them to and from the Xiongnu, which was regarded as the representative of the main and faction in the court.
Zhandehou Wang Sa had twice gone to the Xiongnu, very familiar with the border, so that after the stopper, the fifth Lun and Dou Rong crossed the river to Tewu County to meet Wang Sa.
This noisy northern expedition with the power of the whole country ended dismally, Han Wei's entire army was annihilated, or he died, or he surrendered, and Wang Mang sent Wuwei Si to rush to the border to investigate. Looking at the thousands of miles of border plugs, the only bright spot is the defensive counterattack in Xinqinzhong, which finally won the head of "thousands" of Hulu.
Fifth Lun was stunned for a moment, and after Lian Dan's double beheading, and after going to Beijing to go around, he publicized it several times to the outside world, after all, the emperor also wants to save face.
In this way, the reward of Dou Rong and Wulun was raised a lot, and Wang Sa smiled and said: "Your Majesty heard that Han Wei lost his master, and shouted that General Hu had mistakenly given it, and when he heard that the two captains turned the tide and broke Hulu, he couldn't help but be happy, and he gave a reward on the spot." ”
"The two of them are knighted at the same time!"
The new room regained the fifth-rank lord system of the Zhou Dynasty, both of them were men before, but now they directly skipped the viscount and were promoted by two levels.
It's too fast, it's too fast.
According to the tradition of the new dynasty, corresponding to different battles, there are different titles, generally those who attack Xiqiang Xihai County are called "Qiang", those who suppress the uprising are called "Wu", the rebels are exterminated by "captive", and the cities of the Western Regions are related to "Hu".
It is said that back then, the imperial court debated for three days and three nights whether the meritorious person who fought against the Xiongnu was a "slave" or a "Di" word! In Wang Mang's view, this is not a trivial matter, and the son has said: "It must be justified!" ”
So Dou Rong got the name of "Xun Nubo".
The fifth is "Knuber".
If this is a traitor, he will become Krupp, Wu Lun couldn't cry and laughed, and only comforted himself: "It's better than what Dingli man sounds like." ”
The two of them successfully went from the ranks of "barons" with five or six hundred people to the "earls" with only more than two hundred people of the same rank. Fifth Lun and Dou Rong are grateful, but they don't think so, the title or something, unless they are directly sealed to the duke, they don't have to care, and there is no actual benefit of the soil, and the name is good.
What they are most concerned about is the actual position, don't look at Wang Mang's great title, which is extremely generous, but when it is the turn of the actual authority, it is very small.
But I heard Wang Sa finish reading the edict: "The two royal lands have meritorious, and they are both worshiped as generals!" ”
Dou Rong was stunned when he heard this, in his mind, it was reasonable for him to be a general, and Fifth Lun was at most a fake lieutenant turned regular, and he happened to be his subordinate, but he didn't expect that the two of them were actually at the same level, could it really be that Dasikong Wangyi would be wrong and speak too much for Fifth Lun?
Fifth Lun was also a little unexpected, he thought that his captain would be able to do it until the world was in chaos, but he unexpectedly advanced to the next level. Wang Mang is unusual this time, why is he so generous.
If General Pi can have two lieutenants under his command, does this mean that he can expand his army by 10,000 people? How is this script like a dream?
Wang Sa saw that the two were surprised, and explained: "Your Majesty is worried that Hu Lu is not peaceful, and the barbarian Xia is cunning, and there are many thieves in the Quartet, and he is tired of it, so he wrote a book, and decided to build a canopy, set up a fight, and read the stories of his predecessors, imitating the military system of the former emperor when the Yellow Emperor set the world. ”
"Then there were five great Sima, twenty-five generals, one hundred and twenty-five partial generals, and one thousand two hundred and fifty generals."
Fifth Lun and Dou Rong were really stunned, wait, more than a thousand? Is this general in your family a vegetable in the market, and he sells it?
Wang Sa continued: "There are 12,500 captains, 37,500 Simas, 112,500 soldiers, 1,225,000 officers, and 450,000 soldiers......
"And so on, in total, there should be 13.5 million soldiers in the whole country!"
Fifth Lun has always been proud of his expression control, but now his mouth can't be closed.
In his previous life, he often saw people on the Internet mocking the ancient "army of millions" as unrealistic.
I never thought that Wang Mang could give you a whole army of 10 million! This is to include all the Ding Zhuang in the country.
Although I know that it is only claimed, and in fact it is not even a tenth of it, it is enough for the fifth Lun to shock a whole year.
Wang Mang, Wang Mang, worthy of you, never play cards according to the routine!
Wang Sa said again: "So Your Majesty placed the position of Sima in the front and back, and gave Zhuzhou the title of general, the county commander, the company commander, and the big Yin as the partial general, and the general of the commander, and the county commander as the captain." ”
No wonder the general was so generous this time, it turned out that the tide was rising, and even a small county was a captain, how could they not be promoted?
Fifth Lun suddenly couldn't be happy, Wang Mang's move seemed to be to militarize the whole country, combine civil and military, and engage in wartime politics, probably stimulated by Han Wei's funeral. I just don't know, when he comes out like this, who is the imaginary enemy, will he continue to fight outside, or will he wake up and start to settle down?
The more critical question is that Dou Rong and Fifth Lun have both become generals, with the same rank and the same title, so in this new Qinzhong, is it the dove or the magpie that has the final say?
One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, Dou Rong's plan to recruit Fifth Lun as a subordinate failed, and Fifth Lun is also sharpening his knife in his heart, he is very skilled in beating friendly troops, but he is really embarrassed to attack Dou Rong, the "friendly army" who has sent them warmth.
But I heard Wang Sa's words: "General Dou, put down the affairs of the general, and go back to the court quickly." ”
Dou Rong, who wanted to stay in the border to avoid trouble, secretly called out that something was wrong, and his heart was bitter, but he had to pretend to be happy and grateful.
Fifth Lun was suddenly overjoyed in his heart, and said secretly: "Dou Rong is gone, isn't that ......?"
"The same goes for the Fifth General!"
As soon as he raised his head, Wang Sa smiled: "And like General Dou, transfer the defense to me and go back to Chang'an quickly." ”
He took a few steps closer and gave Dou Rong and the fifth Lun a thoroughfare: "The Son of Heaven is extremely rewarding to the two, and he will personally summon them after returning to the court, and he will be reused!" ”
……
When accompanying Wang Sa to cross the river and board the boat by the Yellow River, Wu Lun and Dou Rong glanced at each other, which was simply sympathetic.
"Congratulations to Gong Zhou." Fifth, congratulations.
"Congratulations to Boyu, too." Dou Rong smiled with a sigh.
Then after they boarded the boat, Dou Rong was in the boat, wanting to cry without tears, and his heart turned a thousand times.
Fifth Lun was also speechless and looked at the sky, and did not say a word for a long time.
Why is this happening? Having been made an earl, promoted to an official, and summoned by the Holy Family, it should have been three times as happy, but why couldn't they be happy?
Fifth Lun was still a mess in his mind, and he didn't understand the purpose of Wang Mang's eight punches.
According to common sense, the Xiongnu threat is on the side, and the two countries are still in a wartime state, shouldn't it be safest for him or Dou Rong to stay behind? Why did he suddenly parachute in a Wang Sa to take away the military power of the two.
The idea slowly became clear: "Wang Sa, the lord and the dispatch of the troops in Zha Biansai, means that the foreign policy of the imperial court may have to have a huge turn. ”
"I'm afraid that if we want to go from being inside and outside, to being inside and outside, we must first be inside, of course, it may also be both inside and outside."
Fifth Lun only speculated that Wang Mang was not only stimulated by Han Wei's funeral, but there was probably a big change in the country, but unfortunately the news was too far away to be known in time.
But no matter what, whether it is Dou Rong or Wu Lun, this period of time has been painstaking, or forming gangs, or trying to recruit talents, and the plan to settle down in the new Qin to wait for the times to change has become a failure.
Do you have to give up after half a year of hard work? The fifth Lun was full of melancholy.
When the boat reached the river, and when the water was around, a bold idea flashed through the heart of the fifth Lun: "If I jump directly to the counter-mutiny now...... What will happen? ”
