Chapter 172: Sending Troops
Over the years, when the Goryeo Kingdom paid tribute to the Central Plains regime, it basically fought big with small and made a lot of money.
Generally speaking, Goryeo is also in the form, the last seal is a minister, send a few folk beauties to pretend to be a woman from a famous family, plus a few Confucian classics, you can exchange for countless gold and silver, and a number of treasures.
Before Xu Feng came to the Great Zhou, the officialdom seniors in the country all laughed and told him a secret: China has a lot of land and resources, people are stupid and have a lot of money, as long as you soften your body and say a few more good words, you can cheat a lot of rewards.
"My important ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Lao Jun, are generally more than a thousand sheep, although you are from a small state, but you are also an important minister of a country. We won't worry about you, three hundred sheep, not one less. Li Anguo glared at Xu Fenglai contemptuously, surnamed Xu, how many benefits you have gained, others may not know, but Lao Tzu knows it.
"This ...... Okay...... "Xu Fenglai was rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, anyway, the wool came out of the sheep, so he just didn't take the gold."
Gao Gaoxiong, the second grandson of King Gao Xingzhou of Qin, snorted coldly and said: "There are only sheep, but no wine, what kind of army do you work?" We are all Jingshi people, and we love to drink 'jade liquid incense' the most, so Xu Gong must not disappoint the brothers, right? ”
Xu Fenglai was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but the country was anxiously waiting for reinforcements, and he didn't have the courage to turn his face publicly, so he had to bargain with a smiling face, "This jade liquid incense is really difficult to buy, and the lower officials try to buy it, that is." ”
"Oh, you can't buy it? This is easy, as long as you are willing to pay for it, how about buying it for you? Gao Xiong stretched out his hand in front of Xu Fenglai, waiting for him to pay for it.
Fu Zhaoxin was originally a bold person, but when he saw Xu Fenglai, he looked like a little family. I was unusually disdainful.
Damn, my Great Zhou court sent troops and money to provide grain and grass to quell the rebellion of your Goryeo Kingdom, just a few sheep, a few bottles of jade liquid incense. How many bird dollars is it worth?
The important minister of the country of Haedong is such a scoundrel, it is conceivable that the lord of Goryeo is not a good thing, right?
Seeing that Xu Fenglai had been hesitant and unwilling to agree, Li Anguo did not have as many scruples as Fu Zhaoxin. He was immediately furious and shouted: "You and other Koreans have taken advantage of my Celestial Empire, and they only want to swallow fat, and they refuse to spit out half of their bones. Even the labor army is insincere, it can be seen. There must be deception in asking for help. ”
"Yes, yes, what kind of bullshit is the country of Haidong, it's obviously a country of liars."
"What the eldest brother said is very true, this Korean people don't have many good things."
"I said Lao Xu, isn't it just a few hundred sheep and hundreds of bottles of jade liquid incense. Is it so difficult? It's really not good, you write an IOU, and my son advances money. Can I buy it for you? ”
The public officials can't do anything else, sneering, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, pulling Xila, eating and taking cards, and the fox is fake and mighty. Those who are proper are insiders.
This is too much of a slap in the face, Xu Fenglai's old face. A burst of blue, a burst of white. Red and purple, purple and translucent, "Xiaguan will do it, and this will do it." ”
Fu Zhaoxin looked down on Xu Fenglai's obscene appearance in his heart, he simply pretended to be deaf and dumb, and turned a blind eye to Xu Fenglai's predicament.
Uncle Guo didn't say anything, and the people in the yamen were even more energetic, you said, I said, Leng forced Xu Fenglai to add, and added a hundred sheep and two hundred bottles of jade liquid incense, and then stopped.
After Xu Feng came and left, someone asked Li Anguo worriedly: "Big brother, the surname Xu won't go to His Majesty Xià and sue us for Diao, right?" ”
Before Li Anguo could squeak, Gao Gao Xiong burst out laughing, "You, you, you're really a pig's brain, what we are discussing is the major matter of the labor army, the surname Xu is voluntarily worshipped, and the brothers are very grateful, praising him for being an understanding person." ”
Fu Zhaoxin looked at Gao Gao Xiong who was foaming at the mouth, and couldn't help but smile slightly, Gao Gao Xiong was stuck with the word Lao Jun to make an article, even if the lawsuit was fought in front of Chai Rong, the brothers were all invincible.
Putting aside the real ability to lead troops to fight, these buddies of Fu Zhaoxin can become a long-term little bully on the streets of Beijing, and their brains are not good, so they have already finished playing!
"Xincheng, how is the surname Li? Do you want a few brothers to help you clean him up? Li Anguolie smiled, who was he afraid of?
Fu Zhaoxin waved his hand again and again, and whispered: "Brothers, don't mess around, lest you ruin the big event of going to Goryeo." ”
These people don't know how powerful Li Zhongyi is, but Fu Zhao's confidence is clear. Let's just talk about today's game, although the matter is small, it is a trick deliberately set up by Li Zhongyi, the purpose is to defeat Xu Fenglai's prestige.
Knowing people and being good at their responsibilities is easier said than done!
Li Anguo thought about it, the purpose of them mixing into the army was to go to Goryeo to get a vote for military merits, and come back to inherit the title passed down by their fathers and ancestors.
The titles of the Great Zhou Dynasty have no so-called hereditary replacement, without exception, they are all downgraded to two ranks. Moreover, the necessary condition is that only those who have military merits are eligible to be knighted.
The heir of the prince of the kingdom can only attack the prince of the county at most, and after three generations, the title will automatically disappear.
Three days later, all the Broken Army and the newly joined First Army of the Jingshi Xiang Army had a good tooth sacrifice.
Xu Fenglai smashed the pot and sold iron, and the supplies for the army that were easily raised became the oil and water in the stomachs of the brothers.
The supply of materials for the Broken Army has always been the first part of the forbidden army of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and everyone doesn't have much feeling about eating mutton.
The first army of the Jingshi Xiang Army is different, these second-class Qiu Ba who have been brushed down from the forbidden army have rarely eaten a bite of mutton in a year.
Have you ever seen what a hungry tiger is called a sheep pounce?
The brothers of the First Army of the Jingshi Xiang Army couldn't wait to chew even the sheep's head and swallow it in their stomachs, and this kind of devouring hunger can make a group of Yanei who are used to being pampered and pampered look dumbfounded.
The day after the dinner, Li Anguo was sent to keep an eye on the preparations of the water division, Gao Gao Xiong went to supervise the grain and grass, and Fu Zhaoxin continued to track the allocation of weapons.
Due to the participation of the Yanei, the allocation of materials for the expedition of the Broken Captives Army has suddenly increased by several orders of magnitude.
Li Xiaoqi raised his thumb and said convincingly: "It's still a good son." ”
Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, although these yamen are nothing, but the influence of their fathers and ancestors, who dares to underestimate them?
For example, Wu Guogong Li Qiong. Although this old man has left the front-line leadership position, he may not be able to promote you to a high position. However, at the critical moment, Li Qiong was in front of Chai Rong and took your eye medicine. It's more than enough to spoil your promotion plans.
The logistics materials were almost stocked, and Li Zhongyi didn't see Xu Fenglai, so he was so anxious that he was in a hurry, looking for a way around. I want to talk to Li Zhongyi.
Li Zhongyi has always prided himself as a lonely minister in the court, except for a few people such as Zhao Kuangyin and Murong Yanzhao, his friendship with the important ministers in the court is almost as light as water.
The treasure brought by Xu Fenglai was spent. I searched for countless ways, and until the day before the expedition, Li Zhongyi didn't see him.
On the morning of the expedition, the deputy commander of the guards, Sima Bujun, sent Han Tong to the camp of the Broken Army on behalf of the imperial court to see off the army.
Li Zhongyi and Han Tong, that was an "old friend", when they went to Jiangnan. Li Zhongyi almost didn't suffocate the anxious Han Tong to death.
However, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, although Han Tong looks down on Li Zhongyi. But I also admire his true ability to make money.
"Haha, you are all deployed, and the lower official wishes you a smooth journey and a triumphant return." Han Tong's face was full of smirks.
Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, arched his hand and said: "Thank you Han Gongjiyan, I will definitely play the national and military prestige in the future." Don't embarrass your majesty. ”
Han Tongpi said with a smile: "Your Majesty said, if Li loses." Forget it just by jumping into the sea, don't go back to Bianjing. ”
"Haha. I won't be disappointed. Li Zhongyi waved his hand and ordered decisively, "All of them have." ”
"Stand upright!"
"Gun on the shoulder!"
"Out!"
For Liu Heyang, he took the reins of his horse lightly and galloped out of the camp first, and the army officially embarked on the journey.
The people of Chenqiao Town heard the movement here, threw down the farm tools in their hands, and rushed to see the excitement.
I saw that the soldiers of the Broken Army, carrying steel guns on their shoulders, shook their arms vigorously, took neat steps, and drove out of the camp in a mighty manner.
For a time, the flags were unfurled, the horses neighed, and the dust was flying.
Like javelins, the flag-bearers strode at the forefront of the detachments, and they held their banners high to guide the direction of the army's advance.
The soldiers of the Broken Army, accompanied by the terrifying beat of the little drums, strode forward, raising their legs when the drums sounded, and the ground stomped on the ground when the drums fell, and the earth trembled under their feet and groaned in pain.
The red tassels on the helmets of the soldiers were extremely dazzling, and the entire procession, like a majestic burning sea of fire, rolled forward, devouring a living creature that blocked them.
The spear is like a forest, and the sharp tip of the spear, under the scorching sun, reflects a dazzling cold light, which makes people shudder.
The iron armor on the soldiers' bodies flashed with a clear mang, like a mighty torrent of steel, roaring like thunder, mighty forward.
If someone hangs in the air and looks down on the audience, he will definitely be surprised to find that a hideous-looking steel dragon is taking off like a tiger with unprecedented momentum!
Tens of thousands of people went out, and the darkness was overwhelming, but there was no other sound at the scene except for footsteps, drums, and the occasional neighing of horses.
Han Tong stared at the soldiers who came out of the camp in an orderly manner, his mind was confused for a while, damn, compared with the monsters in front of him, the soldiers he brought were actually worthy of being called soldiers?
Li Zhongyi smiled slightly, turned over the saddle and got on the horse, arched his hand at Han Tong, and said, "Han Gong, there will be a period later!" ”
Xu Fenglai deliberately waited on the big boat by the Yellow River, put up a pergola in his hand, and looked in the direction of Chen Qiaoyi from a distance, he wanted to see, what kind of goods did this broken army have?
"Coming, coming......" The crowd of ordinary people on the shore suddenly shouted excitedly.
"Knock knock knock ......" In the unusually rhythmic drum beat, a big flag fluttering high rushed into Xu Fenglai's eyes.
"The Great Zhou Gaoli camp is deployed: Li." Xu Fenglai muttered about the banner, he knew that Li Zhongyi's team had finally arrived. (To be continued)
