Chapter 1147 To Eat or Not to Eat
Guanzhong, it's right in front of you. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}
At least that's what Ma Chao thinks.
Ma Chao killed Xia Mu and captured Xia Mu's camp. At this moment, he was sitting on the platform of the Chinese army, and a few sheep were slaughtered under the stage, and they were being roasted on the stand, with bursts of tempting fragrance.
Ma Chao Ma Jindao sat on the platform of the Chinese army, drinking the fine wine found in the Xia Mu camp, and suddenly rose up and sang the ballad of Qiangdi......
In Xia Mu's camp, there is really a lot of grain and grass accumulated, and the so-called words that there is no surplus food are all lies. Ma Chao has now obtained a large amount of grain, grass and ordnance, and the number of people has suddenly increased to about 8,000, he has no reason to be unhappy, more importantly, as soon as Xia Mou died, Han Sui returned to Jincheng, which means that once Guanzhong is obtained, it is Ma Chao who is the boss himself, how can he not be happy?
Although when the camp was bombed that day, about half of Xia Mou's soldiers and horses dispersed immediately, and Ma Chao could only increase five or six thousand people in the end, but for Ma Chao, the current strength of the army is the largest since he led the army, and it can be said that it is the moment when he is full of ambition and high spirits.
Now the traces of the conflict of that day have basically dimmed, at the north end of the camp, there are now a large number of Qiang Hu cavalry, and it is precisely because of the arrival of these Qiang Hu cavalry that Xia Mu's men and horses obeyed Ma Chao, a young general.
"I'm going to take the pass!"
Ma Chao put the knife that cut the meat and even the meat knife on the table, as if that piece of meat was the place in Guanzhong, looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone! The land of Guanzhong, the fertile land is thousands of miles! This is a gift from heaven! I wish to follow a certain one, and I drank this bowl of wine, and everyone is a brother, and we will take Guanzhong together, and we will be rich and glorious together! ”
Bai Ma Qiang's Riwuji, Shen Wolf Qiang's Ligude, and Ran Luqiang's Lu Qian looked at each other, their eyes gurgled for a moment, and then as if they had some tacit understanding with each other, they raised the wine bowl, laughed, and drank it with Ma Chao.
"Hahaha, good! Come on, go to the cattle and sheep, and share it with all the nobles! Seeing this, Ma Chao happily turned the wine bowl down, and then beckoned the soldiers to deliver the roasted cattle and sheep.
"Come on," Ma Chao pulled out the meat cleave that was tied to the table, and then cut the barbecue presented by the soldiers with a smile, and gave it to Riwuji, Ligude and Lu Qian one by one.
And the three leaders of the Qiang tribe also glanced at each other, and took the barbecue cut by Ma Chao with a smile.
The so-called bull's ear holder is like this.
On the grassland, the same is true, although there is no habit of staining the lips with cow blood, but in this way, it is tantamount to acquiescing to Ma Chao's position as the owner.
Ma Chao turned the meat cleaver between his fingers, then casually stuck it on the table again, raised the wine bowl again, and said with a smile: "Come on!" Drink to win! Today we are not drunk and do not return! ”
"Good! If you don't get drunk, you can't go home! The head of the Qiang also raised the wine bowl and said in response.
For a while, the atmosphere was very harmonious......
In the camps of both sides, a lot of bonfires were also raised at this time, and the mountain-like grain, grass and meat strips were all taken out by Ma Chao and scattered into the hands of various soldiers.
There was food and drink, and it was enough for these ordinary soldiers, and laughter suddenly filled the air over the entire camp. As for Xia Mu before, well, who is Xia Mou?
Full of wine and food, although it is a celebration between the two sides, but after all, it is still wartime, and it is impossible to get drunk completely, so when the wine is drunk, they will scatter crookedly, and go back to their tents to rest first, as for the next military arrangement, it is naturally a matter of the next day......
"Riwuji ......" Ligude, who participated in the wolf Qiang, did not return to his tent, but followed Ran Luqiang's Lu Qian to the camp of Baimaqiang, lying crookedly on the felt carpet, watching the sun slowly set in the sky, and asked with a wine hiccup, "Do you really want to listen to that little cub?" A guy who hasn't even grown his hair and wants to give orders? Hey hey ......"
"Shut up!" Levuki suddenly turned over and sat up, swept away his original sound appearance, and shouted in a deep voice, "Someone! Watch the big tent twenty steps! No one is allowed to come close! ”
The guards outside the tent answered, and the sound of clattering armor blades rang out outside the tent.
"Ligude! You'd better keep your mouth shut! Živoki said coldly.
Ran Luqiang's Lu Qian also nodded on the side and said, "Don't look at this guy's youth, he is really still the mold of the wolf king, ruthless enough!" Just say what you say here, be careful not to talk nonsense outside......"
Ligu laughed embarrassedly twice, but he still stiffened his mouth and said, "What are you afraid of...... It's just a little brute with some claws...... Okay, don't talk about that, I mean, do we really listen to that guy going east? ”
Zhiwuki was silent for a while and said, "Otherwise, what else, don't eat your cattle and sheep?" What don't your people want to eat? Worked hard to climb over Longshan, and then went back empty-handed? ”
Lu Qian said in a low voice: "That's right! Regardless of whether the white clothes are Li or the boy of the Ma family, the things that should be given to Lao Tzu are the same! Lao Tzu doesn't care what their Han people are like, and he doesn't care what this group of Han people thinks, anyway, there must be no shortage of grain, grass and things, and if there is less, he won't do it! ”
Tachiya nodded and said, "Yes! It doesn't matter if he is a boy in white or a boy from the Ma family, anyway, whoever gives more and who is stronger will have the final say! Hiccup......"
Zhiwuki closed his eyes, and lay down as if he was overwhelmed, and did not continue to speak, but there was a somewhat helpless look between his eyebrows.
These Qiang people are said to be Qiang people, but they are not Qiang people. In the eyes of the Han people, there is nothing wrong with them being Qiang, but in the eyes of the Xiqiang people who are further away, they are almost Han people.
For many years, they have been in such an environment, sometimes accepting the rule of the Han people, enduring the exploitation and humiliation of the Han people; Sometimes, wielding a long knife, he broke into the city and home of the Han people like a wolf and a tiger, dragged the Han people out, and killed them like cattle and sheep; Sometimes he also obeyed the recruitment of the Han people, fought with the Han people, and attacked his former compatriots......
Who are they?
Who should they be?
Even they themselves don't know......
On the other side, in the original big tent of Xia Mu, Ma Chao took the Ge cloth towel soaked in hot water handed over by Ma Dai, rubbed it on his face a few times, and wiped his skin a little red, and then exhaled a long breath of wine, threw the cloth towel, and waved his hand to let the guards on the side go down first.
“…… You bring some good hands......" Seeing that the guards were all away, Ma Chao whispered to Ma Dai, "...... Show me these heads...... If anything goes wrong......"
Ma Dai's eyes widened and he asked suspiciously, "...... Understood, but ...... Didn't they agree to work with us......"
Ma Chao laughed, and then said, "That's right...... They're working with us, but they're actually working with the money we have now! But...... It doesn't matter, I don't need them to be loyal, they just need to be obedient, and raising a dog requires two meat and bones...... But if the dog is disobedient, it will have to kill and eat meat......"
………………………………
Although it was a little sluggish, after a spring rain, the spring breeze still reflected the peach blossoms' cheeks.
Inside and outside Pingyang, especially on Peach Mountain, there is a sea of flowers, and the petals of peach blossoms are standing proudly on the branches, announcing the official debut of the new year.
Xun Chen was in the midst of the peach blossoms, stepping on clogs, with a graceful demeanor, but his mouth scared Fei Qian.
"Prince, a certain person came to ask for sin."
Xun Chen, who came in a hurry, said this shortly after he sat down, and his tone was smooth and gentle, as if he was saying that he had decided to eat herbs or cranberries today.
Fei Qian put down the bamboo slip, rubbed his little arm that was a little sore, and said, "Why? What is the crime? ”
Originally, since Huang Yueying came, Pingyang has brought a lot of paper-making craftsmen, and also produced some bamboo paper that belongs to the upper layer compared to the current paper, but unfortunately these bamboo papers can only be supplied to the outside in small quantities in order to meet the needs of printing Jiaozi, resulting in the so-called "no bamboo and wooden-based office in the north" This system reform project has been repeatedly stranded.
Fortunately, these people and officials at the grassroots level have been accustomed to wooden slips and bamboo slips for many years, so there is not much dissatisfaction, but the side effect is that with the repeated increase in the affairs of the north, from the original one or two people to hold, and then it has become someone to carry, to now, the daily bamboo slips and wooden slips need to be carried by someone to carry the burden to send, and then carry the burden to send away, it is really not easy.
If this continues, perhaps after a while, the ox cart will have to be used......
"Junhou," Xun Chen said calmly, "this time Cao Pingdong is covering Luoyang...... Related ...... Therefore, I have come to ask the prince for his guilt......"
"Huh?" Fei Qian was silent for a moment and said, "Could it be that you are ...... to Cao Pingdong Well, did you reveal a certain movement in the army to Brother Ling? ”
It is very simple to deduce that Cao Cao is actually leading the troops to visit relatives in Xuzhou at the moment, so the affairs in the rear are handed over to Xun Yu to deal with, so this time Xiahou Yuan rushed to Luoyang, and he must have received Xun Yu's final authorization.
And Xun Yu made such a decision, mostly because he felt that there would be no obstacles and threats to this trip, that is, Yang Biao was fighting with Fei Qian with all his might, and Heluo was empty......
Although Yang Biao is not a first-class talent, but for the transfer of internal military horses, he still understands more or less and will not publicize it to the point that the whole world knows about it, nor will he intentionally let outsiders know, so under the interconnection, Xun Chen must have told Xun Yu about Yang Biao's attack on Tongguan, Xun Yu immediately understood, and seized this opportunity, but in the end it was not successful.
Xun Chen bowed to the ground and said, "Exactly." Please condemn the prince. ”
Fei Qian closed his eyes, then opened them, and said, "Let's get up first, I want to hear the reason." ”
Although information is not valuable in a sense, the difference in the order of knowledge is like a cloud. It's like everyone in later generations knew that flipping houses could make money, but those who first used national assets to speculate on houses made a lot of money, and those who followed suit basically became landlords or prisons.
Therefore, the battle between Fei Qian and Yang Biao Tongguan will be known by other people sooner or later, this is not a special matter to be hidden, but there is still a difference between the sooner or later that it is known.
Xun Chen said: "General Yuan is now about to enter the north, and Cao Pingdong is inevitably anxious...... The land of the four wars in Yanzhou is like duckweed in the water, and there is a risk of capsizing in a moment. Therefore, Yang's attack on Tongguan is a good opportunity for Pingdong...... However, the prince and the marquis are righteous, and Pingdong can only fight with surprises, and the difference between the top and bottom is also ......"
Xun Chen glanced at Fei Qian and said, "...... Let alone...... Regardless of whether the Son of Heaven leaves Luoyang or not, Yang Cao's crime can be held accountable...... If so, if there is a crime of not abusing power, please ask the prince to surrender the crime......"
Is this called plea?
It's about the same time, isn't it?
Fei Qian couldn't cry or laugh.
Isn't this just a naked conspiracy, of course, this is naturally based on the fact that Fei Qian still has a strong army and status, otherwise no matter how much strategy there is, it will be a joke.
If Cao Cao took the Han Emperor, to the truth, it would be to welcome the emperor, and vice versa, it would be a hijacking, and for Yang Biao, no matter whether the Han Emperor left or not, a name of negligence could not be escaped......
It can be said that no matter what, if Fei Qian wants to march eastward in the future, there are already ready-made flags and banners that can be used to hold high.
Offences?
What is there to punish the crime?
As for what kind of arbitrary power, it is not a sin. Fei Qian was in Yinshan at that time, and it would take five or six days to go back and forth even if it was fast, not to mention that from another point of view, Xun Chen's letter revealing information could also be said to have assisted Fei Qian from the side. The so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend, and in the state of Fei Qian and Yang Biao fighting, those who can copy Yang Biao's back road belong to the category of friends to a certain extent.
Fei Qian suddenly felt a little stunned, no wonder Xiahou Yuan dared to make such a crazy move, maybe there was also part of Xun Chen's reason. After all, such a letter, Xun Yu may think that this is Fei Qian's instructions, then it means that the soldiers and horses commanded by Huang Xian next to Emperor Han are also friendly troops in a sense......
But what he didn't expect was that Huang Xian obeyed the orders of Emperor Han and did not cooperate with Xiahou Yuan and refused to leave Luoyang.
Speaking of which, Xun Chen also calculated quite deeply, and even his younger brother Xun Yu was pitted together......
"Youruo, this time I came here not just to ask for sin...... Fei Qian said.
Xun Chen arched his hand and said: "The prince has a clear view of thousands of miles...... If you come here, please also ask the prince to lead the troops south and take Guanzhong quickly! ”
“…… The so-called time and time," Xun Chen continued, "In the past, the disadvantages outweighed the benefits, so it was postponed...... In today's situation, the breeder is incompetent, the Yang family is panicked, Ji Yu has no time to look west, and the prince and the prince have won Guanzhong, which is the right time! If you take care of the displaced people, regardless of the rest, just talking about the population, it will increase by 100,000 ding! This is a heavenly king! I also hope that the prince will break off quickly! ”
According to the Han law, the displaced people did not belong to the tenant farmers, nor did they belong to the commoners, but to the criminals, so these displaced people also lost their original subordination, so in whose hands, who became the new master of these displaced people, just like Cao Cao ate the Qingzhou Yellow Turban......
Unlike the previous small-scale displaced people in Guanguan with hundreds of thousands, or even tens of thousands of people, this time, it was almost a large tide of displaced people who swept a considerable part of the population of Jing Zhaoyin and Youfufeng, basically speaking, it was calculated in tens of thousands, so if Fei Qian wanted to appease him, the pressure he faced would naturally be many times higher than before.
Population is the foundation of everything, Fei Qian took the risk of introducing the Montenegrin Army to open up Yinshan, that is, in order to fill the vacancy in the population of the north, and now, as Xun Chen said, if you can eat, you will increase by 100,000 ding!
The premise is, can you eat it......
"Prince, if you are worried about the matter of grain and grass...... Xun Chen looked at Fei Qian's expression, and guessed a few points, so he said, "My subordinates have a strategy, which may solve the worries of the prince and marquis......"
