Chapter 175: Nesting
In fact, Lu Ning didn't work at all, Wang Shengzhong, who had a sharp sword, and twenty samurai, coupled with Guhe Village, made the armed peasants temporarily organized by Xiaoshanzha be defeated in an instant.
The north of the small mountain village was almost cut off by Wang Shengzhong's knife, and his death was very miserable.
The wealthy families of Xiaoshanzha were swept away, almost all of them were relatives from the north of Xiaoshanzha, and all the men who failed to escape were executed.
Wang Shengzhong preached again, saying that the provocation and the responsibility were all in the north of the small mountain village, and the rest of the people were not guilty, so they were ordered to elect a person in charge of the village gate within ten days, register the population of the village gate, and dedicate it to the New Tang City, and in the future, pay taxes to the New Tang City.
Subsequently, the brigade took the spoils of war and returned with a full load.
In the next few days, Lu Ning wandered around the villages within dozens of miles of Guhe Village, and led the army to destroy a stronghold in Fujiwara Xiuxiang.
Within a radius of dozens of miles, there should be no more wedges buried by Fujiwara Hidego.
Lu Ning then explored further south, and there was no one all day.
More than ten days later, when Lu Ning turned around, Huang Baoyi was in a hurry.
But three days ago, a letter was sent from Heiankyo to the New Tang City, written by the Left Minister Fujiwara Minori.
Fujiwara Minori, it can be said that he is the most powerful person in Dongying today, Emperor Murakami's health is already bad, and the major affairs of the court are basically in the hands of Fujiwara Minori.
Historically, two or three years later, Emperor Murakami died of illness, and although the crown prince Emperor Ryosen said that he was sixteen years old and could ascend the throne and govern himself, he suffered from serious mental illness.
Originally, the Fuji clan was regent when the emperor was young, and the emperor was personally recruited when he became an adult, and the regent became "Sekihaku", which was similar to an honorary title, so the Fuji clan and the emperor maintained a balance of succession to rule the court.
But Fujiwara Minoru relied on the identity of Sekihaku as a regent, creating a precedent, and the emperor really became a puppet, and later the Fuji clan was regent as Sekihaku, until more than a hundred years later, there was an emperor who was unwilling to be a puppet anymore, relying on the locality, the samurai group and the Fuji clan to contend with, but he didn't want to, the front door drove wolves, and the back door entered the tiger, and the samurai group that rose rapidly quickly established the shogunate regime, the minister became an idler, and the emperor became a mascot, except for the righteousness that the samurai needed to use, there was no power at all.
And the first regent three years later, Seki Shirakuwara Minori, wrote this letter, but it was sincere, saying that Ezo was also a problem for his Japanese henchmen, but the mountains and rivers in the northeast were high and dangerous, and the expedition had been ineffective, and now the Central Plains Heavenly Army helped him, and he was very grateful, and asked when the Heavenly Army would withdraw its troops.
He also invited the head office to Heiankyo to discuss the matter of reconciliation between the two countries, and the disputes and misunderstandings between the Celestial Army and the warriors of Dewa, Mutsu, Echigo, and Shimono needed to be resolved amicably.
Obviously, when Fujiwara Minori's letter was sent from Kyoto, Minamoto Manchu's letter had not yet reached Kyoto, so the letter did not mention a word about the matter, and his judgment of the current situation was almost out of touch with reality.
But it can also be known from the letter that this Fujiwara Minori is not too concerned about the barbaric things far from Kyoto, but faintly, with the intention of showing goodwill, I am afraid that he also wants to take this opportunity to turn the emperor into a puppet.
After all, he himself did not know that in three years, he would have a better chance.
He led the negotiation with the Qi people and established a relatively close relationship with the Qi people, and his authority could go further.
Judging from the various movements of the Qi people, it is obvious that they have no ambition to invade Kyoto, otherwise, they would have driven their troops south.
This also means that everything can be negotiated and resolved peacefully.
This is also implied in his letters, for example, inviting the "General Yuan" to Heianjing.
However, in the current situation, it is impossible to go to Heianjing by himself.
When the battalion drawn out by the Zhendong Army arrived at Guhe Village, he would go to the south to arrange it.
After hearing that Yuan Manzhong issued a righteous order, he had already ordered Yang Ye to transfer a full battalion from Mutsu Izuyu to garrison the middle line no matter what, so that he could act well.
This should also be the limit of Yang Ye's ability to mobilize military strength, and if more regular pawns are transferred, the situation in Deyu Mutsu will not be so stable.
Thinking about it, Lu Ning raised his head and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but saw that in addition to Huang Baoyi, there were two more people in the hut.
Wearing a red and white witch dress, the elegant and beautiful girl who exudes indescribable charm in her innocence is the real winter hime.
The other is an elegant and beautiful young woman, with a beautiful appearance, very much the angular beauty of later women, this kind of beauty will bring a sense of oppression to ordinary people.
She was wearing a brightly colored embroidered kimono, but the kimono seemed to be slightly smaller by one size, and it was only a wide silk silk restraint around the waist, so the snow-white neckline of the monograph seemed to be hidden from side to side.
Seeing that Lu Ning came back to his senses from the letter, Huang Baoyi hurriedly walked to his side and whispered, introducing the origin of the two.
True Winter Ji Lu Ning naturally knew, but why was she sent here by the two "palace ladies", listening to Huang Baoyi, Lu Ning couldn't help but feel a sigh in her heart.
On the day that Zhen Dong Ji arrived in New Tang City, she was searched by the female guard from her body and found a thin iron wire, which can quickly strangle people.
This kind of thin iron wire, in today's days, is not easy to forge, especially in Dongying, it takes a lot of effort and a lot of money to ask skilled craftsmen to forge.
In addition, there is a thin layer of cloth wrapped around her waist, and when the cloth is dissolved in water, it is poison.
This was naturally noticed by Zhen Dong Ji and Lu Ning when they met, and secretly sent a letter to Empress Xiao and Yi Lai, asking the two of them to search.
This is really Dong Ji, her father Tachibana Zhongren painstakingly trained her out, of course, she doesn't just want to send her to Kyoto to please the powerful, otherwise, why use his own daughter? Although the orange clan is in a state of decline, the nobility of the bloodline is still the head of the clans descended from the royal family.
This real winter hime, with delicate weapons and poisons that can kill people, from a certain point of view, should be the embryonic stage of Ji samurai, female ninja and the like.
This stunning weapon, sent to Kyoto, can also be used to kill the person Tachibana Nakaren wants.
After being found with hidden weapons and poison, Shin Dong Ji was immediately put under house arrest.
But she was not discouraged, and often asked the food delivery person when she would be able to see the head office.
On the bright side, it was because Zhendong Ji asked the two palace ladies to see the lord of the main courtyard several times, and the two palace ladies were jealous, so they rewarded the Zhendong Ji who was suspected of being an assassin to "Lu Bantou" as a concubine.
In fact, Empress Xiao and Yi Lazy obviously knew that it was time for Lu Ning to use this chess piece, so they sent it to Lu Ning in advance.
Now Lu Ning feels more and more that Empress Xiao and Yi Lazy have really become good helpers, pretending to be in the center, and he can act unscrupulously below, which is very convenient.
And because of the relationship between Dongying, the battle is against the Dongying alien race, if it really fails, the two of her will not end well, yes, the two of them have gradually entered the role, they are not in the New Tang City, and the two of them will govern the New Tang City and the towns of Yamashita in an orderly manner.
As for this elegant and beautiful young woman, Huang Baoyi whispered that it was one of the more than 100 women who Lu Ning raided and looted at Guansuzha.
Lu Ning also saved, she should be the one who was pulled by Ma Dashan, Ma Dashan saw that she was completely different from other robbed women in terms of clothing and temperament, and the things that could be seen by the big and rough were not seen by the blind, the contrast was too stark.
Huang Baoyi whispered that she was the only one of the women who was robbed and did not pass the examination of the workshop, and her origin was not clear.
She claimed that her name was Kyoko, that she was a villager in Guansuzha, and that she was married to a family that cultivated the deep land in Guansuzha.
However, none of the other female prisoners knew her, you must know that among those female prisoners there were not only villagers, but also many of them were female relatives of Xiuxiang's cronies, but none of them knew her origin.
Hearing this, Lu Ning scratched her head a little, thinking that the entourage who knew her identity was either killed or fled in the chaos.
Looking at her temperament, I'm afraid that a local tyrant like Xiuxiang can't marry this kind of woman, let alone raise this kind of daughter.
However, marry the one who cultivates the deep field? If she was famous in history, wouldn't she be called Kyoko Fukada?
Lu Ning was stunned for a moment, and said, looking at her, she felt familiar, and now that she thinks about it, isn't this the more delicate Kyoko Fukada?
Especially, now this and costume, the first time I watched Kyoko Fukada's costume in the film and television, but I was once amazed.
Then Lu Ning smiled in surprise, what level is the beauty in his eyes now?
The exquisite version of Kyoko Fukada, when I first saw her, I just thought she was elegant and beautiful, and, in terms of the present, compared to Huang Baoyi, who is not as small as herself, her beauty is still inferior, but it is also, Huang Baoyi, but the best among the best among the best in the same age group selected by the Central Plains.
Only those stunning colors in his palace can be good at winning with Huang Baoyi when he grows up.
Kyoko was sent over as a slave girl to reward "Lu Bantou".
This kind of person who doesn't know the origin but has a clear background has to be sent to Lu Ning for Lu Ning to find out.
Looking at Madong Ji and then at Kyoko, Lu Ning coughed, "Okay, just follow me first." He raised his voice outside again: "Madashan, what's the matter?!" ”
He heard Ma Dashan's footsteps a few times, but there was probably no movement in his room, so he didn't make a sound.
"Ah, head! You're awake! Madashan laughed.
Lu Ning was helpless, how could he listen to it, and when it came out of his mouth, these words didn't seem to be a good thing?
"Boss, I have a lot of wine and food, don't I come to invite the chief's family?" Madashan was laughing dryly outside.
At this time, Lu Ning had already gotten up and came to the door, Huang Baoyi opened the grille door from the side, and Zhendong Ji and Kyoko obviously did not enter the state, but just followed behind Lu Ning.
Listening to what Ma Dashan said about "clumsy", Lu Ning smiled dumbly, he was not there, how did he learn this word?
Then I was stunned.
Huang Baoyi seemed to know what Lu Ning was thinking, and had already explained in a whisper beside her, saying that when Zhen Dongji and Gongzi were sent, the marriage match designated by the New Tang City Military Education Workshop for Madashan was also sent, called Ah Qian.
Madashan couldn't wait to hold the wedding.
Lu Ning was speechless, and scolded with a smile: "Madashan, you guy, you don't wait for me to come back when you hold a wedding, you forget your righteousness." ”
When Ma Shan saw the big and small beauties clustered out behind Lu Ning, his eyes were glazed, and he didn't dare to look at it more, so he smiled and said, "Aren't I here to make amends?" Chief, this meal is in exchange for a month's military salary. ”
Lu Ning smiled, "It seems that I have to follow the group." Seeing that Madashan didn't know why, he smiled and said, "It's a gift for you." He took out a ten-run banknote from his bosom and handed it over, saying: "It's too hasty, those domestic products in the shops in New Tang City are too expensive, if you want to buy what you like, it's too cost-effective to buy one you don't like at a big price!" So, what do you like, take your sister-in-law to buy it yourself another day. ”
Nowadays, the three relatives are good at giving gifts, that is, giving gifts, and there is no direct money.
Ma Dashan was even more stunned when he saw Lu Ning's magnanimity, the expedition to the East, the salary of the ordinary pawn was consistent for a month, of course, the ordinary booty, the reward is not easy to count, this is also the most primitive motivation for the Eastern Expedition pawn to fight.
Just shouting slogans and fighting for the Great Emperor? Expand the territory for Daqi? An expedition across the ocean is not the same as defending your home and destroying a potentially powerful enemy.
Mo said that many of the main soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army were originally from the grassland and the Baishui tribe of Montenegro, and they were the main soldiers of the Central Plains, and they were on the expedition to a foreign land on the other side of the sea, just by slogans, and after a long time, any enthusiasm will be wiped out.
But speaking of which, including food and shelter, clothing and ordnance, you can save money purely for a month, which is not a small amount.
After all, a ploughing cow in the Central Plains today is only one or two dollars.
It's not a joke when it comes to packing ordnance, in the Central Plains Dynasty, in some periods, when the ordnance of the soldiers was broken, they really had to spend their own money to repair it, and the grassland tribe warriors were even more so.
And now, Lu Ning's shot is ten, which can be said to be extremely generous.
Nowadays, not only the Donghai Baixing in Xinqicheng, Donglai City, Xintangcheng and other large trading houses collect Daqi banknotes, but also the local merchants who distribute them, and also collect banknotes, otherwise they will not be able to be the distributors of all goods, and the reasons for this are self-evident.
However, because local merchants can use paper money to pick up goods from the big trading houses of the East China Sea, it doesn't matter if local merchants want to become distributors of Qi goods, the first thing to do is to learn how to identify the denominations of Qi banknotes in the Qi People's Trading House.
In fact, Dongying, even the paper of banknotes cannot be imitated, not to mention the exquisite engraving printing patterns.
Moreover, the official name of paper banknotes, and people's habits, are called "Da Qi Tong Bao Bank", and they do not know the name of paper money and the like.
And Mutsu, according to Lu Ning's impression, has also begun to explore gold and silver mines, after all, in the Warring States period, Date Masamune managed Mutsu into a country of gold.
Of course, before a series of agreements are reached with Kyoto, it is only necessary to carry out simple preliminary exploration, otherwise the news of Mutsu's discovery of gold and silver mountains will in vain make it more difficult for Daqi and Kyoto to reach a peace agreement.
There is also Iwami Province, which is relatively close to Tsushima, and the largest silver mine in the future, and will have to find a way to obtain mining rights in the future, but that is a story for another time.
Not only the goods imported to Japan, but also paper money, all kinds of raw materials were brought back, and local gold and silver were looted.
If everything can really develop smoothly, the move of the Eastern Crusade is really a great benefit.
Ma Dashan didn't know that the head on the other side could turn around so much when he sent a Tongbao banknote, and he was a little embarrassed to say next: "Boss, ten yuan of money, you have no money for a year." ”
Lu Ning said with a smile: "Today is your big day, eat your month's salary, and I have to pay you back for a year, I can't make you suffer on a big day." ”
He turned around and smiled: "Let's go, eat him!" No one is polite, we won't be able to get back if we eat it all. ”
……
Ma Dashan's wife, Ah Qian, is a very delicate girl, and she looks humble and cowardly.
Obviously, Ma Dashan was extremely satisfied with the wife who was assigned to him, and in front of Ah Qian, he also became extremely gentle, and he saw Lu Ning's hair standing on end.
Moreover, when he entered the house, he handed over the banknotes to Ah Qian for safekeeping, saying that it was a gift from the head, and explained that the face value of this banknote was in Daqi, how many things could be bought, and so on.
I was worried that this was a girl with a weak personality, Ma Dashan is such a brutal old man, don't beat and scold people all day long.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Lu Ning was relieved, but also a little helpless.
Come to think of it, if you break other people's melons, you will become very sorry for others.
The dishes are extremely rich, and there are all kinds of game, and the wine is bought from all the way from the New Tang City, although it is not a good wine, but it is simply a fairy wine compared to the water and wine that I have been drinking recently.
Lu Ning and his "wife" Huang Baoyi sat side by side; The "side room" is really Dongji's square, a separate small table, and some meals are hastily served; The servant Gongzi could only stand aside, if it weren't for Ah Qian's repeated persuasion in fright, Lu Ning also spoke up, she still had to serve the wine and food.
Ah Qian, obviously also shocked by the posture of the class master, the face of the class master is full of pits, how can the wife, concubine, and even the slave are all intimidating beauty in the world!
Lu Ning also glanced at Madong Ji and Kyoko, these two guys, but their faces were as usual, as if they quickly accepted their new identities.
Everyone has their own hearts!
Lu Ning turned around and took a sip of wine, how do you think that the women around him are not simple?
Of course, ordinary women can't come to their side at all.
