Chapter 79: Suppressing Thieves (2)

I'm at work now, I'm busy, and there are few updates, please Haihan.

In the north of the Ming Dynasty, the snow covers the four fields, the rivers are all frozen, and the bare branches hang with silver hooks formed by ice.

These silver hooks make the sun shine, crystal clear, brilliant and beautiful.

And some waterfalls in the Lu River, because of the freezing, have formed ice flowers with strange shapes, which look like they have a unique flavor.

In the midst of this gorgeous and unique Northland scenery, a team of horses is marching quickly along the official road.

At the front of this horse team, there was a young officer who was wearing armor and looking very strong, and several servants who followed him closely were also fully armored, and they also looked quite strong.

Needless to say, these people naturally set off from Jingbian Fort and prepared to go to Yulin to meet Hong Chengchou and others.

Liu Renyu has been looking at the terrain near the official road since he led the team into the official road to Yulin.

However, it is said that at this time, the land in northern Shaanxi, after the continuous plundering development of the ancients before the Ming Dynasty, has already destroyed most of the vegetation. The soil lacks the protection of the root system, and when it encounters heavy rains, it is repeatedly washed away, forming countless ravines.

Most of the official roads from Jingbian Fort to Yulin were built at the bottom of these ravines.

Liu Renyu led his troops on such roads, looked at the valleys on both sides, and felt that it was an eventful time, and if there were thieves in ambush on the top of the mountain, it would be enough to throw a few stones.

So he ordered Liu Renjie to send a night scout cavalry to repeatedly inspect and make sure that there were no enemy ambushes.

Originally, logically speaking, judging from the current combat effectiveness of the thieves, it would be good if the Jingbian Fort Army did not go to them for trouble, and how could they dare to come to the Jingbian Fort Army to ambush them.

However, Liu Renyu often taught his subordinates not to underestimate the enemy and to be cautious, so in order to set a good example, he naturally sent scouts to investigate the situation.

According to the report of the scouts sent out, the official road is close to the left, except for a few hungry people, there is no sign of the activities of a large number of bandits.

When Liu Renyu heard this, his heart was a little calm, but he still ordered Liu Renjie to be vigilant, carefully investigate, and report back as soon as there is a police.

Liu Renjie is naturally Nuo Nuo.

In this way, the Jingbian Fort army advanced all the way without encountering any enemy attacks.

After walking for more than 100 miles, Liu Renyu ordered a short rest.

When the soldiers heard the order, they hurriedly dismounted, massaged their horses, fed them concentrate, and served their precious horses before resting.

The firefighters took advantage of this break to open the lid of the coal stove to make the briquettes burn a little hotter, and then they put the pot up and put the snow on both sides of the road into the pot.

When the snow meets the hot iron pot, it turns into water. After a while, the water was boiling, and the firemen threw a few pieces of meat into the water, plus some salt, and dried peppers.

After boiling for a while, the meat is fragrant.

When the firefighters finished boiling the soup, they struck the gong and said, "When the soup is ready, come and serve the soup, and you won't wait for it to be outdated." ”

Hearing the call of the firefighters, the soldiers stopped what they were doing, and lined up in front of each cooking carriage with their iron lunch boxes, and received the broth one by one.

After receiving the broth, the soldiers found a random place, took out dry flour cakes, ate the broth, and began to eat it.

When it was time to eat, Liu Renyu, the leader, did not let the firefighters open a small stove for him, he knew the phrase that sharing weal and woe won the hearts of the soldiers, so he was also like his own soldiers, took the lunch box and finished the soup, and then found a piece of land, drinking soup and nibbling cakes at the same time.

"Renjie, did Mr. Sun Qian send food there?" Liu Renyu asked Liu Renjie while eating.

"I didn't send food." Liu Renjie replied.

"It's cold, so let's send him some food."

"My lord, he is a criminal official, why bother to send him food, besides, when he arrives in Yulin, he will have his head on the ground, why waste food." Liu Renjie was puzzled.

"After all, he helped us kill Zheng Baihu, which is also a great achievement. In addition, what you have said is not right, people are also military attachΓ©s, whether they kill or not, we don't count, Hong Junmen doesn't count, it still needs to be tried by the legal department, and the emperor will decide before his head hits. ”

"Oh, that's right. But I heard that Yuan Zhishuai directly cut down Mao Dashuai, and Mao Dashuai was a guard. ”

"That's different, Yuan Zhishuai has Shang Fang's sword in his hand, and he can cut it first and then play. However, what he did was to scare the emperor, you see, Yuan Zhishuai, who injured the old slave and set up a great victory in Ningyuan, is still locked up in the prison. ”

"That's right, Yuan Zhishuai was majestic at that time, but he buried a curse for himself."

"Well, that's it. Okay, I'm done eating, I'll just go and bring food to Mr. Sun Qian by myself, and when you go to feed the horses, feed my horses some food, and then brush him. ”

"Yes, sir."

After Liu Renyu and Liu Renjie finished talking, they asked the firefighters for a pottery bowl, put a little broth in the bowl, put a cake on it, and then walked straight to the carriage where Sun Qianzong was being held.

However, it was said that the carriage in which Sun Qianzong was imprisoned was very different from the traditional prisoner carriage of the Ming Dynasty.

The traditional prisoner car of the Ming Dynasty is the same as that shown in later TVs, that is, more than a dozen pieces of wood are nailed together to imprison prisoners in it.

This kind of prisoner car, needless to say, must be leaking on all sides, if Sun Qian is locked in that kind of prison car, drinking 270 miles of northwest wind all the way, maybe when he arrives in Yulin, Sun Qian will be frozen into a popsicle.

Sun Qian couldn't die yet, at least not until he was escorted to Yulin to listen to the fate, so Liu Renyu prepared a carriage for him as a senior prisoner.

This high-class prisoner's carriage is based on a freight carriage with a wooden frame covered with canvas to protect it from the wind and rain, and in addition to that, it is also padded with thick hay and very warm.

Sun Qian was always locked in this kind of carriage, and he didn't dare to say how comfortable it was, at least it was better than riding in a traditional prisoner car.

And when Liu Renyu brought the food, Sun Qian, who was firmly locked by the iron chain, was naturally very surprised.

"Lord Liu, you actually personally delivered the food, and the prisoner was terrified."

"It's nothing, although we don't have a good relationship, but it's also a colleague, and it's nothing to bring you a meal."

"Actually, the adult came just in time, and the prisoner was looking for an opportunity to talk to the adult."

"If you have anything to say, just say it."

"My lord, when are you going to kill me?"

"What are you talking about? The power of life and death is the authority of the master, I am a small guard, how can I decide your life and death? ”

"My lord, don't fool me, the prisoner has lived for more than forty years, and he has seen the world."

"Huh!" Liu Renyu smiled but did not speak.

"My lord, you are young and old, and you are thorough, not like a young man in his early 20s, the criminal officer is a little admired, but the criminal officer can't understand the things you do."

"What can't you understand?"

"Why do you want our fields, but instead of enjoying them for yourself, but giving them to the people, what do you want? The prisoner couldn't figure it out. ”

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, there are many things in this world that you can't figure out." Liu Renyu smiled faintly.

"What the Lord said is yes, what good is it for those who are about to die? Haha, don't talk about this, in fact, what the offender wants to tell you is that there are thousands of mistakes, and they are all the fault of the offender, and please bypass my family. ”

"Don't worry about this, I'm not a person who kills innocents indiscriminately." Liu Renyu said with a smile.

"In this way, I have thanked the lord for his kindness, and the offender has nothing to repay in this life, but to repay the great kindness of the lord by being a cow and a horse in the next life."

"It's good, it's good, you can eat all these meals while it's hot." Liu Renyu said.

"Hey, that's good." Sun Qian was always full of smiles, happily eating cakes and drinking soup.

Liu Renyu stood aside, looked at it, and said, "You eat slowly." And he went back to the front of the line.

In this way, after resting for about half an hour, Liu Renyu ordered to continue on the road.

So they all got on their horses again, and divided into two teams, each of which was divided into two small teams, and surrounded the wagons in the middle, and went on.

After walking for a while, Liu Renyu pulled his horse close to Liu Renjie, and secretly said: "Later, you will send someone back to talk to Danqing, and ask him to send Sun Mianyun's family on the road, and you must make it clear to him, do it neatly, and don't torture others." ”

"My lord, why do you need to do this, it's just some women and children." Liu Renjie wondered.

"The children will always grow up, the woman has the best memory, if the children are older, how did their father die, do you think they will take revenge?"

"Your Excellency has a point."

"That's right, those who achieve great things must not have the kindness of a woman."

"Yes, my lord, since you want to kill Sun Mianyun's family, then he himself will definitely die."

"When he enters Yulin Prison, buy off the jailer and kill him."

"Yes, sir." Liu Renjie sighed.

Originally, Liu Renjie's sigh may have just been pity for the Sun family, but when Liu Renyu heard this sigh, for some reason, he suddenly felt some emotion.

Liu Renyu suddenly remembered that he was not such a ruthless person in later generations.

In later generations, he was a good person in the traditional sense, distinguishing between good and evil, knowing right from wrong, never bullying the weak, and having a good reputation in the special operations brigade.

Even when he was a soldier in the later generations, he killed a few criminals, but those people deserved it and deserved it.

After the crossing, some of the people he killed directly or indirectly were indeed traitors and innocent deaths, but some of them were innocent.

Killing so many innocent people, when he dreamed back in the middle of the night, he was never awakened by a nightmare, condemned by his conscience, but sometimes he had to do it.

The building will fall, the country will change color, China will fall, the heavy responsibility is on his shoulders, before he destroys the Jurchen, he can't have any accidents, he can't stop until he gets a high position and gets absolute power.

Therefore, even if he loses sleep night after night and is entangled by unjust souls, he will embark on a road of power paved with blood.

Once it will be successful, the bones will wither, and the ancients will not deceive me!

After Liu Renyu finished sighing, he ordered his subordinates to urge Ma Ma to rush to Yulin no matter what.

So everyone didn't care about the horsepower, so they had to whip their horses quickly, and whipped them on the buttocks of their horses like whips, which provoked their horses to roar and run fast.

"Hey! The one-month period agreed with Hong Junmen is due today, and if you go late, I'm afraid that the military gate will be unhappy. Liu Renyu thought so in his heart.

In this way, after a day of galloping, at sunset, Liu Renyu's department finally rushed to Yulin Town.
