Chapter 225: Countermeasures

、、、、、、、、、、

Hu felt that things should not be so bad, after all, General Yu really thought that the marshal was good. Moreover, the Great Sui expedition to Goryeo finally destroyed this country. If His Majesty does not reward the marshal and meritorious soldiers, but suppresses it, I am afraid that it will cause riots. I don't think the Holy One will fail to think of that. Hu Sizheng said in a deep voice.

Wei Zheng also nodded and said, "My subordinates also feel that now the Central Plains is rampant with bandits, and there are wars everywhere. There are still Turks eyeing the outside of the Seychelles, and His Majesty has finally pacified the troubled Goryeo on the eastern side of Liaodong, and he should not be able to hide the birds so quickly! ”

"Well, this matter will be taken one step at a time." Yu Ming also said helplessly: "However, we must always send people to the court to move around, so as not to pass a resolution that is unfavorable to us and others......"

At this time, he glanced at Du Ruhui and said, "Ruhui, this matter will be handled by you!" You have previously held positions in the court, and you are also familiar with the officials of the six provincial departments of the imperial court. Later, I will repair two letters, and you will bring them to my father Yuhua and my eldest uncle, the eldest grandson Wuji, respectively, and ask them to also move around, and try to persuade Your Majesty not to transfer me back to the Central Plains. ”

Du Ruhui hurriedly bowed and saluted: "My subordinates must do their best to live up to the marshal's high expectations." ”

Yu Ming nodded slightly, and then said to Wei Zheng: "Old Wei, although Liaodong City has been built, there is a big gap in the houses and supporting things. After the Chinese New Year, how to improve the facilities, increase the population, and prosper the trade, you need to think more about it! ”

Wei Zheng also immediately said solemnly: "Wei must do a good job in this matter and return the marshal to a prosperous Liaodong City!" ”

Yu Ming nodded, and then turned to Hu Sizheng and said: "Si Zheng, now Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and most of the surnames are civilians from Goryeo and the grasslands. Most of my soldiers and men in the Great Sui are homesick. In order to stabilize the morale of the army and the people, I suggest that the soldiers of each battalion be allowed to go home in batches and bring their parents, wives, children, and relatives from their hometowns back to Liaodong to live. ”

Hu Sizheng smiled slightly and said: "Marshal's policy is indeed a good way to stabilize the morale of the Liaodong army, and at the same time, it also increases the population of Liaodong. But that's not enough. ”

"Oh? So what else does Hu Junshi think should be done? Redsleeves asked, somewhat unconvinced. She now regards Yuming as her husband. Listening to Hu Sizheng's tone, he seemed to be a little disrespectful to Yuming.

Hu Sizheng didn't care, he said solemnly: "My subordinates have conducted a thorough investigation of the soldiers in the army and the people. It was found that less than half of them had a family or room. And due to the war in the Central Plains, many people's families have long been broken. Therefore, sending people to pick up the families of soldiers only calmed the hearts of soldiers who had wives and children. And those soldiers who are not married still feel that Liaodong is not their home! ”

"However, the subordinates also found that because of the Goryeo king Gao Yuan and the Goryeo marshal Gao Jianwu and others, in order to fight against our Great Sui, almost all the school-age Goryeo men were recruited into the army, and in the second war, the Goryeo army suffered heavy casualties. Many families have only women, and the men are either elderly or children. Therefore, the marshal can order that the soldiers and husbands in the army can find a Goryeo woman who has not yet married and whose husband has died to marry and form a family again, which can alleviate the resistance of the Goryeo people, and secondly, it can also let the soldiers and husbands in the army take root in Liaodong with peace of mind, killing two birds with one stone! Hu Sizheng added.

"Good! Ben Shuai agreed! Yuming was overjoyed when he heard this, and secretly thought that this was indeed a good idea. At the same time, he also added: "In order to improve the accumulation of soldiers to settle in Liaodong, Ben Shuai added one more article: all the soldiers and people who married the daughters of the Goryeo and Liaodong grasslands and took root in Liaodong to settle down, each of them will be divided into forty acres of Yongye field, and if they have made war exploits before, they will be divided more according to the size of their war exploits." We can't let the soldiers shed blood and tears! ”

"The last generals and commodore have thanked the marshal! Many of us actually have this idea, but the military regulations don't allow it, and now we can be regarded as relieved! After Guo Yi heard this, he was overjoyed, he actually took a fancy to a young widow from Goryeo when he was in Aoki City, but he was strict with military regulations and did not dare to come to the door to propose marriage. And Yuming's method is to solve his problem.

"Hmmm! Ben Shuai will take the lead! At this time, Yu Ming took Red Sleeves' hand and said to everyone present: "Senior Sister Red Sleeves and I have actually been in love for a long time, but because of their special status, it is not easy to make it public." Now while tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, let's make a happy and happy thing and do it, so that no one will talk about us behind our backs! ”

Red Sleeves didn't expect Yu Ming to propose marriage at this time, although Yu Ming had said before that she would give her a name, but she didn't expect it to come so quickly, so she was suddenly blushing with shame.

The generals were also surprised at this time, they actually heard or saw that the relationship between Yu Ming and Red Sleeves was not a pure senior sister and brother, but they also didn't expect that Yu Ming would publicly propose to marry Red Sleeves.

After being stunned for a moment, Guo Yifang was the first to applaud, he also admired the red sleeves very much, grinned and clenched his fists and smiled: "I have long seen that the marshal and the red sleeve sister are a pair made by nature......"

Yu Ming smiled, then turned his head to Red Sleeves and said, "Sister Red Sleeves, what time do you say we will have a wedding?" ”

Red Sleeves glanced at Yu Ming and everyone present shyly, and then said in a voice lower than the sound of mosquitoes: "Senior brother, you look at it!" ”

Yu Ming nodded, and then said with a smile on his face: "Then it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, and sex will be on the fifteenth Lantern Festival of the first month!" Keep everything simple for the wedding, so as not to add unnecessary expenses to the camp. ”

When everyone heard this, they were all overjoyed, and even the famous officials stroked their long beards under their chins and nodded in agreement.

Du Ruhui immediately said: "Since this is the case, then the lower official will immediately go to prepare, although the marshal said that everything is simple, but some necessary procedures still have to be followed." ”

Wei Zheng said with a smile on his face: "Then Wei will go and inform the soldiers and people of the whole army, especially the generals stationed in other cities, to come back to attend the marshal's wedding." ”

Hu Sizheng also said with a straight face: "The marshal and the red-sleeved general will go to rest first, and leave the matter of arranging the new house and wedding venue to Hu!" ”

Subsequently, Guo Yi, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, Hu Sizheng and other four people resigned and left one after another. Yu Ming and Red Sleeves walked towards the backyard of the headquarters, which was originally the residence of the lord of Liaodong City. Now it has become the residence of him, the marshal of the Liaodong camp.

"Senior brother, why did you propose to marry me in front of so many people? How embarrassing this is! After turning into the bedroom, Redsleeves said with a flushed face.

"Sister Red Sleeves, don't you want to?" Yu Ming asked, his eyes wide.

"Of course it's not that I don't want to, it's just that it feels sudden, and you haven't said anything about it." Redsleeves said with a shy bow.

"I want to surprise you, too." Yu Ming took her hand with a smile, hugged her delicate body into his arms, and said softly: "You can't follow me all the time, because Liaodong has just been pacified, and the defeated troops of Goryeo are running around, and the Khitan, Tiele, Heishui, Sumo and other tribes in the north of the grassland are eyeing each other. I had no choice but to postpone the marriage. Now that several steppe tribes in the north have been pacified, and the Goryeo rebels in Liaodong have been basically wiped out, it is natural that we should do our marriage! ”

"Senior brother, hello! I didn't choose the wrong person! When Red Sleeves heard this, she felt very sweet in her heart, leaning on his chest, and felt that she was the happiest woman in the world.

……

On the fifteenth day of the first month of the eleventh year of the Great Cause, the sun rose into the blue sky early, sprinkling the warm sunshine on the land of Liaodong, the sky was cloudless, and it was as blue as the sea.

The surnames of Liaodong City are all discussing, does God know that today is the wedding day of Marshal Yu, so he gave Liaodong City a rare winter good weather.

The backyard of the High Command has been renovated. The furniture was requisitioned from the home of a deceased Goryeo official in the city, and it was all fine mahogany; The silk brocade was bought from a merchant from Chengdu who specializes in Shu embroidery, and the big red lantern with the word "Xi" on it was also sent by a lamp shop in Pyongyang......

Yu Ming, who was standing at the door, looked at the new mansion behind him, only to feel a little heartache, and he whispered to Wei Zheng beside him: "Lord Wei, this will inevitably cost a little more!" ”

Wei Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Marshal, don't worry!" We can still afford to spend this amount of money, and almost all of these things are half bought and half given, and they don't cost a lot of money! I did the math, and it only cost less than the usual amount of money to set up the wedding scene, which is still cheap including the cost of the banquet. ”

Yu Ming relieved his heart at this time, he was afraid that his subordinates would be extravagant and wasteful because they were married. And at present, the operation is just starting to build, there is an urgent need to resume production, money is being used everywhere, and there is no wasted capital at all.

What happened just now was just a small episode before the wedding, and it didn't take long for the ceremonial officer sent by the headquarters to arrive.

The ceremonial official of this wedding was Du Ruhui himself.

He patiently explained to Yuming for a long time what he should pay attention to at the wedding. After talking about the detailed steps of marrying a wife, asking for a name, Najib, accepting a sign, announcing the date, welcoming him, and thanking him, Yuming was a little dizzy when he heard it. He didn't seem to have such trouble before marrying his eldest grandson, Wuji.

Immediately, Yu Ming was surrounded by everyone, riding a tall horse tied with a big red flower, and the honor guard, drum band, and the greeting guards appointed by the Command, carrying a large number of salutes, surrounded by Qin Qiong and Wei Chi Jingde and his party, wearing red and hanging green land to walk towards the station of the Zuoling Guard officer who lived in red sleeves. There are also a large number of personal guards on both sides, which is really extraordinary.
