Chapter 42: The Day the Eagle Spreads Its Wings
These wounded soldiers were originally attached to the 'vitality regeneration', and the serious injuries were treated with 'healing techniques'. Under the effect of such a double magic, I was seriously injured and dying, and when I woke up the next day, I found that I seemed to be better!?
For a moment, I thought it was an illusion, but after a closer look, I found that the wounds had scabbed. Where the scab is formed, the scab has fallen off, if it is not for the scab that has fallen off, the scab can still be found, and the flesh of the wound part looks relatively new, I am afraid that these wounded soldiers will really think that their injury is a dream.
"A miracle, a miracle!" Zhang Shiping personally saw hundreds of people being carried to the camp for wounded soldiers, and he still remembered the injuries of these wounded soldiers, without ten days and half a month of recuperation, he was afraid that he would not be able to get out of bed. It is even more dangerous if there is pus in a critical wound!
But as a result, after one night, all these wounded soldiers were healed, which made him wonder if he was dreaming! If not, then it was a miracle, and other than that, he couldn't figure out, how the hell was this done?
Suddenly, he thought of what he had said to Liu Tao yesterday. Liu Tao said at the time that he would inevitably set off today, and at that time he thought that Liu Tao planned to abandon the more than 100 wounded soldiers and set off, but now it seems that last night's words are afraid that they have another deep meaning!
"This Liu Tao, isn't it a ghost?" Zhang Shiping told Su Shuang about this, and then exclaimed.
"Maybe he has some special means, but I think it's better for us not to show it around!" Su Shuang could see the excitement of this old brother, but he still came forward to persuade him.
"I know, of course I do!" Zhang Shiping nodded hurriedly, but his excitement could not be reduced.
"Anyway, depending on the situation, we can really get out today...... I've been here for a while, and I'm really homesick. Su Shuang said with emotion.
Just outside, Liu Tao had already begun to mobilize troops and begin to make final preparations. The army was quickly mobilized, and the baggage troops were doing the final count and loading.
Su Shuang looked at the situation outside, and then looked at Zhang Shiping: "We also reorganize the caravan and manpower a little, it's time to go back!" The thieves are surging, I really can't imagine what is happening to my family now! ”
"When you say that, I'm also a little worried......" Zhang Shiping shook his head, and his originally excited mood suddenly cooled down by half. After being away from home for a few months, coupled with the chaos of the world now, the worry about his family soon took over his heart.
The assembly process did not last long, an hour before and after. It was already scheduled to set off, and the speed of the preparation of the baggage troops was a little faster than the first time.
Chenshi began to prepare, and the time has been completed, the army is assembled, and only needs Liu Tao to speak, and then he can go to the battle.
"Deran, you really don't wait for Thorn Shi's reply? Stay for three or four more days, it's nothing! Zou Jing received the news and also came to the militia alone and found Liu Tao.
Yesterday, he had already written a war report on the process of the war, and sent it to Jixian County to Liu Yan with his head. As expected, in about two days, these things can be delivered to Liu Yan. And then no more than three days, a reply about this war, it will be able to be sent back.
"The humble job was originally going to set off, but the Yellow Turban Thief suddenly arrived, and he had to fight them first. Now that the thief has been broken, it is time to fulfill the contract. Liu Tao replied apologetically.
"Since you have made up your mind, then I won't stop you, but be careful all the way!" Hearing this, Zou Jing sighed and said to him.
"The humble position also intends to build greater military exploits, how can it be lost halfway?" Liu Tao said with a smile, "Perhaps, this time I went south, and I will make greater contributions to my humble position, and it's a pity that the generals can't go south together!" ”
"Haha, if I have the chance, I really want to go south with you. It's just that the military order of the assassin didn't come, and I really didn't dare to leave without permission. Zou Jing said with a smile, he didn't dare to go casually, what if he just left, and the thief came from Qinghe County again?
Then he seemed to remember something, so he continued to say to Liu Tao: "By the way, your stirrups and horseshoes, and finally the saddle, are all very good, and they are of great benefit to the cavalry!" Finally, there is the horizontal knife, the power on the battlefield, it is indeed stronger than the ring head knife, I plan to report these to the history of assassination, and then the history of assassination to the imperial court, for you to show merit, what do you think? ”
"It is also my long-cherished wish to make the imperial court stronger." Of course Liu Tao has no opinion, if he has an opinion, then he doesn't need to take these things out at all.
Since it is taken out, it is, of course, to find an opportunity to give these things away, and then exchange them for actual benefits.
I also thought about it when I became a prince of one side of the separatist party in the future, or when there was a large-scale foreign war. It's just that what he lacks most at this stage is how to quickly become a prince who can divide one side.
It may not be enough to rely only on pacifying the Youzhou Yellow Turbans and assisting Beizhonglang to pacify the Jizhou Yellow Turbans. simply increased the stakes and added all the chips that could be taken out, the purpose of which was naturally to exchange for greater merit.
The county order, he is a little disdainful, at least he has to be a county guard. Otherwise, at least you must retain your military position, preferably a marquis, and at the same time have a territory, so it is acceptable to only be a county commander or county magistrate.
To become famous as soon as possible, it is natural to do whatever it takes to become famous, as for what kind of impact these things will bring to the country, he will not care!
The merit was insufficient, and finally took Liu Bei's old path, whipped the post supervisor and then took refuge in Gongsun Zan or something...... In the last few bumpy years, other people's forces have gradually taken shape, and talents have successively defected to their respective 'lords', the key is insufficient preparation, what to use to dominate the world?
If you can't dominate the world, you can't sweep the eight wildernesses, you can't become the emperor of your word, what can you do to change this era and the fate of China? After weighing it, Liu Tao knew very well how he should choose!
Anyway, it doesn't matter if there is a horseshoe or not, whether there is a stirrup or a saddle, or even whether there is a horizontal knife. According to the original history, China will be plunged into repeated turmoil from this year, and the war will last for nearly a hundred years, and the population of China is said to have dropped from 50 million to 7.67 million.
Some modern scholars believe that there were about 30 million people at the end of the Three Kingdoms period, considering that the tenant farmers and tribes in the shadow of the family, as well as the tun households, military households, official households, fugitive households, missing households, hidden households, and ethnic minorities living in the Han region, were not included in the household registration statistics. But before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the population of Dahan was really only 50 million?
The population decreased sharply, the Hu people moved inward, and the Eight Kings Rebellion led to the Hu people as foreign aid, and there was the later Wuhu Rebellion.
Liu Tao is not an imperial Han ist, and the characteristic of Chinese civilization is that it is compatible with the combination of packages, and can absorb the advantages of other nations to enhance and strengthen his own nation, and Chinese civilization can stand tall. Since he wants to integrate, he hopes to take the initiative to integrate, rather than passively accept integration, which is the key!
Zou Jing saw that Liu Tao had made up his mind, and he no longer insisted on it, but just asked him to take care of himself, so he said goodbye and left.
"The whole army obeys the order!" Seeing Zou Jing leave, Liu Tao turned over and got on his horse, "Follow me on the expedition!" ”
The army began to advance in the southwest direction, and I don't know if it was an illusion, Liu Tao had a strong gaze behind him, and when he looked back, he saw a figure standing there on the city wall......
"............" Liu Tao was silent, bowed to that side, and then turned around and went back and continued to set off.
"That bastard boy......" On the city wall, Liu Yuanqi shook his head, but he still watched the team go out until it completely disappeared on the horizon, then he sighed and turned around and went down the city wall.
