Chapter 150: Surprise

Wang Yue was a little confused, he was conceited and his swordsmanship was unparalleled in the world........ cough, there are few opponents in swordsmanship, and I want to invite fame to the prince, but I have been in Luoyang City for a few years, but I have achieved nothing. It wasn't until I met Chen Cheng that I had a completely different life from before. Although he was expelled from Luoyang, although he became a rebel, he was able to make a state assassin history of six hundred stones, which already made him overjoyed.

Sometimes, he would also wonder if Chen Cheng had ulterior motives for letting him do this assassination history. But even if it is an ulterior motive, so what? He is the eagle dog of the lord, and he is used to supervise the officials in the state. It's just that........ Should we send troops or not? He really doesn't know!

Wang Yue carefully looked at the expression on Chen Cheng's face, pondered for a moment, and said: "The minister thinks that Han Sui's refusal to go to the table for a long time means that he has no king in his eyes and cannot be saved!" ”

Chen Cheng knocked on the bamboo slip in his hand and said with a smile: "He just put it on the table, and his words are sincere and moving." ”

Yan Zhong laughed loudly on the side, and Wang Yue said in his heart: What's so ridiculous about this?

He sighed: "Since this is the case, why don't you send troops to rescue?" ”

Chen Cheng was a little disappointed in his heart, and asked Zhao Yundao: "Zilong thinks, should he be saved, or should he not be saved?" ”

Zhao Yun had been thinking about it for a while, and then replied: "I think I should save it, but I don't have to save it!" ”

"Huh?" Chen Cheng leaned forward slightly and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Zhao Yunlang said: "The lord leads the Liangzhou pastor, when the Liangzhou side is safe, the imperial court soldiers and horses are coming, Han Wen asks for help, be saved!" But now that the weather has turned cooler, the minister asked the people nearby, saying that at this time of year, it is almost snowing in Liangzhou. Once the snow falls, it is inconvenient to use soldiers. At that time, neither the soldiers and horses of the imperial court nor the soldiers under the command of Han Taishou could fight for a long time. Besides, Han Taishou sits in the land of three counties, and there are many soldiers and horses under his command, how can he not resist? ”

Hearing what Zhao Yun said so clearly, Wang Yue couldn't help but feel ashamed.

Yang Qiu looked down on Zhao Yun a little, "hey", and said, "It's no different from what I said." ”

Or maybe he's just jealous. Although the military department can mobilize all the soldiers and horses in the three counties, how can it be compared to the noble commander of the upper servant?

Chen Cheng said with a smile: "I am going to send an envoy to Hanyang to provide Han Sui with some ordnance." Yang Shangshu, I remember that after changing clothes, a lot of short spears and ring-headed knives were returned to the warehouse, you can choose a batch of better ones from them and send them to Han Sui. ”

"Good!"

Chen Cheng said again: "We have been fighting with the Huns for so long this year, and the harvest in the fields is much less, so we have no ability to send troops anymore......

Yang Qiu interjected: "It's still okay to dispatch a few thousand cavalry. ”

With a smile on his face, Chen Cheng glanced at him sideways and continued, "...... However, although we cannot send troops, there are other things that can be done. I'm going to set up a staff office to deduce this and the previous war. The Ministry of War sent some people to help make the sand table of Hanyang and the surrounding counties, and Zilong, you will also pick out a few literate people from the tooth soldiers to help make the rule book. ”

“？？？？”

Yang Qiu and Zhao Yun both had question marks on their faces, and even Yan Zhong, who boasted of his unparalleled intelligence, didn't quite understand what Chen Cheng was talking about.

"There are in the sandbox, but this rule book ....... What is it? ”

Chen Cheng smiled: "You'll know when it's done." ”

After Yang Qiu came out of the State Pastoral Mansion, he looked at the sky, and it was almost time to release the government, so he did not return to Shangshu Mansion, but rode directly back to his mansion in Lian County. When they arrived at the door, the servant hurriedly came up and grabbed the reins, and said, "Shangshu, there are a few young sons in the clan who have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

"Hmph," Yang Qiu's face flashed with anger, and he said angrily, "What are they doing here?" ”

"This ........," the servant said embarrassedly, "we don't dare to ask." ”

Yang Qiu walked into the room with a calm face, and more than a dozen young people immediately stood up when they saw this, and shouted in confusion: "Uncle! ”

"Uncle!"

"Patriarch!"

Yang Qiu sat on the newly popular Hu chair, snorted, and asked, "Why don't you stay in Fuping and come to Lian County?" ”

A young man who looked heroic said, "Uncle, we want to join the army!" ”

Yang Qiu said in a deep voice: "If you want to join the army, you go to Yang Hao, now that Fuping's soldiers and horses are under his control, he will arrange it for you." ”

The young man said loudly: "In Fuping, at most, we will be given a team rate, but it is only a hundred stones." Uncle, you are now a scholar of 2,000 stones, how can we be a small team leader? ”

Yang Qiu laughed angrily and asked, "Oh, then what do you want to do?" Do you want to be a Qu Junhou or a military Sima? Or give you a lieutenant, a lieutenant or something? ”

The young man said confidently: "Forget about the captain, but I can still be the captain!" They can all be Qu Junhou too! ”

"...........", Yang Qiu didn't even have the strength to be angry, he sighed, and said, "If you really have the ability, why don't you go to participate in the selection of tooth soldiers?" ”

"We went, but the people who selected us didn't take us seriously at all! Say that the strength is not strong enough, and the archery skills are not good enough! We are here to be officials, not soldiers! ”

The young man said angrily: "Uncle, those people don't give us face, they just don't give your uncle face, they just look down on our Yang family!" ”

Yang Qiu asked rhetorically, "Then what do you want me to do?" ”

"Since those people don't give face to their uncle, what use do you want them? Remove them from their official positions, beat them up again, and expel them from afar! ”

"Hey," Yang Qiu squinted at his eldest nephew, "I'm just in charge of the military department, do you think I'm Liangzhou Mu?" ”

The young man said loudly: "If it weren't for my uncle, how could Chen Cheng sit in the position of Liangzhou pastor?" This state has half of our Yang family! If the surname Chen is disobedient, we will depose him and replace him with an obedient one! ”

"Hiss", Yang Qiu gasped, then slapped the table and said angrily: "Bastard, who taught you these words?" The lord also dared to put his beak in his beak? What do you have to dare to say such big things? ”

"I ......"

Before the young man could distinguish again, Yang Qiu couldn't bear it anymore, so he stepped forward and slapped him, shouting angrily: "Get out, get back to Fuping for me!" After I went back, I stayed at home honestly, and whoever dared to run around, I asked someone to break his dog's leg! ”

Seeing Yang Qiu angry, although the young people in the room didn't know the reason, they were all frightened and immediately knelt down. They are Yang Qiu's clansmen, and it is not uncommon for this uncle who is a few years older to kill people. Yang Qiu is a prince of one party, and when he is angry, he will really kill people.

The young man was unconvinced, and shouted: "Uncle, only our Yang family is really helping you, when it comes to a critical time, how can outsiders rely on their own people?" ”

Yang Qiu's heart moved, although these bastards didn't know the height of the sky, what they said was not wrong. The anger on his face decreased slightly, and he said, "Hmph, the selection of the tooth soldiers was personally checked by Zhonglang General Zhao Yun, and it is useless for me to speak." If you want to help me, then practice your martial arts. Here are a few textbooks, which the lord is preparing to implement in Liangzhou, and now there are no them outside, so you can take them back to study with good students, and they will be used when the tooth soldiers are selected next year. ”

The young man took the bamboo slip and asked, "Will you still select tooth soldiers next year?" ”

"Of course, in the future, all officers at and above the rank of Qu Junhou will be promoted, and they will need to study in the tooth soldiers for a few months, and they can only take office after passing the assessment."

"Huh? Wouldn't everyone have to be surnamed Chen..... Chen Zhijun is in charge? ”

"Or else?" Yang Qiu sneered: "Do you think I can really manage anything? I can nominate for the promotion of military attaché, but it is difficult to pass or not, but it is not up to me to have the final say. ”

The young man opened the bamboo slip and saw many ghost-drawn things, and couldn't help but exclaim again, "What is this?" How do I not recognize it? ”

"If you don't recognize it, go back and study it well!"

"It's ....... I can't read it, what if I can't choose next year? ”

"Hmph, if you can't be elected next year, come to the military department to run errands for me." Yang Qiu said dissatisfiedly: "But if the martial arts are too bad, I will still beat you back!" ”

After a group of unreassuring relatives left, Yang Qiu sat on a chair and began to ponder. His current power is very large, and he can theoretically mobilize all the troops in the three counties except for the tooth soldiers, but in practice he is also subject to many constraints, which is far less than the pleasure he came in Fuping.

The money and food of the army must be determined by the face of the household, and the promotion of the general must be determined by the face of the province under the door......... Sometimes he wants to simply resign from this military department and return to Fuping to be a soil emperor, isn't it beautiful? But the feeling of holding an army of tens of thousands is so intoxicating. Now that Cheng Yi, Ma Teng and the others have to be cautious when talking to him, how can this kind of happiness be compared to when they are trapped in Fuping?

That's it, that's it, let's find a way to install more of our own people, so that we won't always feel constrained like now.

Whether it is a purposeful act or not, the authorities will instinctively expand the scope of their powers, just like the joke of the Japanese army in World War II, the navy will form marines, cavalry units and armored units. The Army will also try to find ways to support aircraft carriers and transport fleets.

Just when Yang Qiu was trying to expand the power in his hands, Xu Chao had already led people to start dredging the river on the edge of the Yellow River, preparing to take advantage of the autumn harvest to clean up part of the blocked river channel, so that water could be diverted to irrigate the fields near Lian County.

Chen Zhijun has agreed that after the river is dredged, 30,000 acres of it will be assigned to the Xu family. When the river in Lian County is sorted out and dredged, there are still places in Linrong waiting for him to deal with. However, he is not in a hurry, in the years he has been the county magistrate in Lingzhou, he has presided over many field developments, and knows what to do to be fast and good, so as not to cause a backlash from the people.

Standing on the edge of the river beach, reaching out and grabbing a handful of soil, Xu Chao said to the left and right: "If this place can be developed, there will be more 100,000 acres of fertile land next year, as long as the Yellow River does not flood.......

Speaking of this, he frowned, and said in his heart: Just dredging these irrigation channels can only cure the symptoms, but not the root cause. If you want to really turn the banks of the Yellow River into granaries, you have to make great efforts to control the Yellow River!

When he was in Lingzhou before, he had thought about this matter, but at that time, he was just a county magistrate, and even if he gave Yang Qiu a table, he only ended up in the sea. It's different now, he, Xu Chao, is now the secretary of the household department and the secretary of the Ministry of Labor, and this matter of governing the Yellow River is within the scope of his own work!

Chen Cheng, who was urging Wei Ran, Ding Yuan and others to participate in the production of the sand table, could not have imagined that a big surprise would soon fall on his head.
