Chapter 102: One Man Attains the Way
It was noon, the sun was full, and the sun made people drowsy.
At the gate of Chuzhou City, several guards on duty stood there, and they were also so sleepy that they couldn't open their eyes, and they were immediately woken up by the leader who came down to inspect.
"Keep your eyes on the ...... Damn, did Lao Tzu transfer you over here as decorations? ”
"Boss, I've been sent to keep an eye on this morning, what are we staring at?"
"Yes, and there is no gate tax, and there is no oil and water ......"
"Hey! Where is so much nonsense? Isn't it a brain on the neck, but a stone? Keep an eye on the face! Keep an eye on who enters the city and who goes out of the city......"
The leader was still reprimanding repeatedly, and the people who followed him all looked south.
The official road in the south raised smoke and dust all the way.
"Boss...... There were a lot of people coming from the south......"
The leader looked south.
In the smoke and dust in the sky, there are many shadows, and there are many people who look at it.
The leader's heart suddenly lifted, it is true that Quyang County is in the south, but those who can come from the south may not all be Quyang soldiers.
"Alert!"
The leader gave the order with a wave of his arm.
The ten city gate guards were still responding, and hundreds of people had already hulala from the upper and lower floors of the city gate, all wearing helmets and armor.
The two ordinary people who wanted to get out of the city were startled, and one pulled one back into the city, watching from a distance.
"What's going on?"
"Who knows? A large army entered the city yesterday, and it will come today? ”
……
The procession on the official road gradually became clear as they walked in.
One by one, there were mule carts, and a wheelbarrow, all loaded with things.
At the front of the convoy, several people rode horses.
I couldn't see my face clearly when I was far away, but the white shirt on my body was very distinct.
"Hah! Own! ”
"This is Xiao Baoye's grain transportation team!"
The boss still can't be reassured.
He knew about the first two times the Scouts were transporting food, but each time there were only thirty or forty mule carts, and he couldn't see the tail of the team.
In the morning, 8,000 men were fired, in case they were killed?
……
It wasn't until the convoy approached and saw the horse that the leader was relieved.
The people on that horse also saw the people at the gate of the city, and they were horrified, but they were not afraid, they walked a few steps quickly, turned over and dismounted: "Uncle Zhu......"
"Little Leopard!" The boss was also a little warm.
It is also a coincidence that this leader is none other than one of the leaders of the Ma Zhai master, Zhu Jian and Zhu Qiang's brothers.
Huo Bao didn't rush to greet him, looked at the city gate guards a lot, and said bluntly: "Uncle Zhu, why did you change the guards?" And more manpower? Is there a change in Chuzhou? The Bozhou army is coming? ”
There were many people at the gate of the city, and Zhu couldn't talk about it in detail, so he said vaguely: "The third master took his men and 8,000 men and horses to Bozhou this morning...... Now Chuzhou, our five masters are in charge......"
Yes, this is the unified rhetoric of the military and the people of Chuzhou.
Everyone didn't deliberately smear the third disciple, but they didn't intend to promote filial piety for him.
Slightly more well-informed, got a more detailed version.
That is, several marshals in Bozhou were infighting, and Marshal Liu was at a disadvantage and forcibly summoned his son-in-law to go back and join the army.
The third apprentice took away 8,000 elite soldiers and entrusted Chuzhou to his brother-in-law Huo Wuye.
The little people are okay, who is in charge has little to do with themselves, and if they don't raise taxes or draw money, they are good at home.
The gentry and merchants were going to die of depression.
The girl sent it, the silk and silver were sent, and the people wiped their butts and left.
This Huo Wuye came, everyone had to re-respect again.
Not to mention the military and civilians in Chuzhou, only that Huo Bao was more surprised than happy at this moment, and explained the convoy to Niu Zhang, and hurried to the state office.
……
The gate of the state government, like the gate of the city, is guarded a lot.
Most of them are people in Black Python Mountain.
Everyone knows Huo Bao, who leads the horse, and who asks for peace.
Huo Bao greeted everyone with a smile, looking at these undisguised flattery, he sighed in his heart.
But after a few days, this treatment is really different.
Huo Bao directly called someone to lead the way and go to find Huo Bao.
……
Huo Bao is still in Master Lin's study, in addition to him and Master Lin, there is also Bao Baiying, the eldest son of Ping An and Dr. Bao.
A few people were talking about the formation of a medical corps.
Ping An was responsible for selecting the men in the auxiliaries.
Bao Baiying was responsible for teaching everyone simple wound bandaging, boiling medicine and other skills.
Bao Baiying is in her thirties, wearing a long gown, very elegant, not like a doctor, but like a Confucian student.
Although Dr. Bao ruthlessly pushed his eldest son out, in the end, he was his own father, but he did not hide the benefits and harms, and explained to his son.
If the whiteshirts are defeated, the family will remove them from the list and cut off their tails to survive.
If the white-shirted army wins, this wealth is what he uses his life to promote, and he will be promoted if he is willing to promote his brother, and he is not to blame if he is not willing to be promoted.
Bao Baiying was more open than his father, and he didn't procrastinate, so he went directly to the state office.
When these four people get together, they are all people who have read books, and they are extremely happy to communicate.
"The medical staff will be on standby in the future, and strive to increase the number as soon as possible, and the ratio of soldiers to medical staff in wartime should be at least 50 to 1. Among them, it can be further subdivided, those who are good at trauma treatment, and those who are good at medicine care, which still need to be agreed between Dr. Bao and Second Brother Lin. Huo Bao said.
This Second Brother Lin is none other than Brother Ping'an.
After breakfast, Master Lin asked Huo Bao to be a witness, recognized Ping'an as his adopted grandson, and gave him the surname Lin.
Ping An is seventeen years old, one year younger than Lin Jin, so Huo Bao is called so.
This is not a temporary gesture of favor by Master Lin to buy people's hearts, but to solve his worries for safety.
Ping An is an orphan who doesn't even have a surname, and he is a scholar, except for doing things, it is inevitable to be despised.
became Master Lin's adopted grandson, and he also has a backer and foundation.
Ping'an grew up beside Master Lin, and he was honestly respected and close to Master Lin, and the master and servant became grandchildren, and they were also both****** doctor nodded and looked at Lin Ping'an.
The white-shirted army occupied Chuzhou for a month, and Master Lin did not show up many times, but those who were really well-informed knew that this person should not be underestimated. This person is not in charge of the army, but the government affairs of the state government are in the hands of this person.
Unexpectedly, now the juniors of the Lin family still began to meddle in the army.
That's right, in troubled times, soldiers and horses are the heaviest.
Lin Ping'an has read books, and naturally includes "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic".
He made a silent calculation in his heart and said, "Little Baoye, if you want to match fifty to one medical soldiers, the 10,000 soldiers are 200 people, and 15,000 soldiers are 300 people." Now there are 4,000 auxiliary soldiers in the state capital, and it is easy to transfer a few hundred people, but the time is in a hurry, and Dr. Bao teaches everyone alone, I am afraid it will be difficult to take care of the whole ......"
Huo Bao nodded.
Binjiang soldiers 3,000.
Quyang soldiers are 5,000.
The state capital has 15,000 soldiers.
The total strength of the three places is 20,000, and the troops must be divided to stay in the three places, and the soldiers who can go out to recruit are between 10,000 and 15,000.
"Dr. Bao is a new medical officer in the state capital, and he has the right to recruit and transfer Chuzhou doctors and medical children ......to serve," Huo Bao said here, looking at Master Lin: "It's just that the name is not right, and the appointment of Dr. Bao's grade still needs to be decided by Mr. Lin." ”
"The first level of the province only set up a medical officer "to raise", from the ninth grade, although there was no medical officer before the state capital, but can appoint a loose official below the eighth grade...... It's still a "draw", from the ninth grade. ”
Bao Baiying got up and thanked him.
Although he knew in his heart that this Chuzhou withdrawal was different from other withdrawals, he still had a little joy.
Scholars, there are people who are worried about the country and the people, and they see that the current situation is not right.
No matter what the whiteshirts are elsewhere do, this Chuzhou whiteshirts really give rise to some hope.
Seeing Huo Bao coming, Huo Bao was very happy, and told everyone about his crimes, so he took Huo Bao to the guest house.
"Uncle Bao, is it really the fifth grandfather in charge?"
"Hmm!"
Huo Bao smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his heart was really open.
He wanted to open it, and the left and right life was for nothing, so he fought hard.
It's not easy to hug your thighs, you need to bend over, and you have to prevent being kicked away.
I have become a thigh, which is the real reassuring thing.
Huo Bao's eyes were shining, and the corners of his mouth were cracked to the base of his ears.
It's just that on the road, Huo Bao still endures.
When he entered Huo Bao's room, Huo Bao jumped three feet high.
"Great! That's great! Let's decide for ourselves in the future...... It's so nice......"
"So happy?"
"Hmmm! In the future, you don't have to look at people's faces, no matter how hard you work, you will be happy! ”
“…… When you come back, Jiang Ping gave you a face? ”
“……”
"Say!"
Huo Bao was really angry.
Huo Bao came over to deliver food, this is to help the three disciples solve the urgent need, I don't know how to be grateful, and I give it back?
This Huo Leopard is not an ordinary subordinate, surnamed Huo, representing the face of his father.
Huo Bao whispered: "It's not a big face, is it...... It's just that he doesn't speak very politely, and what do you say about the local gentry's support and love for the third master...... Take the initiative to donate food or something......"
Speaking of this, he was a little proud: "But I didn't cheap him, I directly told the third master that it was not easy for our boy soldiers to transport grain, and Jinling owed money for grain, so it was not easy to pay for it, so I directly asked for a few shops to top the account...... The southern goods in the shop were originally prepared by my nephew, and I was going to give them to them in the name of the fifth grandfather and Uncle Bao, but the two miles of the province were far apart. With that stubble, my nephew was reluctant, so he didn't give a single one! ”
Huo Bao was silent.
No one is a fool, whether it is Niu Qing or Huo Bao, they are all worried about their relationship with the disciples, for fear that the relationship between the two will be estranged, so why not see that they are not close to each other.
From the Black Python Mountain, the manpower of Huo Wu's father and son is independent of the third apprentice.
Even if they don't break up this time, the two will eventually drift apart.
Turning the other cheek in advance, the two sides are clearly distinguished, which is a good thing for both sides.
"Uncle Bao, I don't want to transport grain...... I want to follow Uncle Bao, but I haven't caught up with such a big thing...... That's a good thing, but what if there is a fight next time? You and the fifth grandfather must have our own people by your side! ”
Huo Bao heard that the voice was wrong, and said, "Don't say this in front of people in the future!" The people of the sixth uncle and the eighth uncle are their own people, and the owner of Tang Zhai chose to stay, and he did not go with his uncle, and he is also his own people...... Uncle Cousin here, not to mention ......"
Now the people and horses, except for the three thousand Binjiang, are in the hands of these four people.
Huo Bao's face was tangled, and he said: "But there are only 3,000 soldiers in Binjiang, and there are still 15,000 soldiers left in the state capital?" This...... Don't want to be careful? This is unrealistic! The nephew just took a special look, whether it is at the gate of the city or the state guards, they are all the people of the owner of the horse village......
Huo Bao glanced at him.
"Uncle, they're on guard...... The result?! People must be defensive, but they can't be suspicious, otherwise the love that is no longer good will be gone. When you see that they are all the people of the sixth uncle, you should understand that if the sixth uncle has the heart to fight, this master will not fall on your fifth grandfather. ”
"That's not necessarily, isn't there Uncle Bao and Uncle Deng? Even if there are more people in the state capital, if you catch the head, the bottom is honest! ”
"You're confident! Swords and guns have no eyes, if we are really surrounded, how many can my cousin and I protect? It's okay to think about your uncle and them, how can this good situation be lost! That's a lesson from the past, you and I need to be vigilant, and don't make the same mistakes......"
