Chapter 8: After the War
"The foot is called Cheng Pu, the word Demou?" Early in the morning of the second day, in Lu Longsai after the war, Gongsun Xun stared at the ...... in front of him with a curious expression Well, he couldn't help but be curious, he originally thought that his home was in western Liaoning, and it was already an unexpected joy to meet a Han Dang Han Yigong in such a remote area, but he didn't expect that there would be an additional head of Jiangbiao Huchen!
Moreover, the addition of these two people seems to verify the identities of the two and the mother's narrative - the only thing that makes him unable to complain is that if it were not for his own stubble, why would these two people run to the south in the near future?
A native of Liaoxi, a native of Youbeiping...... Why?
"Don't dare to weigh your feet in front of the young monarch." Cheng Pu, who has a national character face, is a county official after all, and he obviously has some cultural level, so this demeanor is much stronger than Han Dang. "The contemptible person is Cheng Pu Cheng Demou."
"Anyway, this time I really thank Brother Demou for saving his life." Gongsun Xun came back to his senses, regardless of the blood and ash on his body, he almost immediately hit the snake with the stick, and directly held the other party's hand.
Don't think how simple the handshake is, in the Han Dynasty, the handshake was a very close gesture, and in history, the great demon master Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu relied on the idiom of 'shaking hands and saying joy' to win over I don't know how many famous generals.
Of course, for Gongsun Xun, who was raised alone by a certain female frequency writer since he was a child, this simple and easy, but effective way to win over is simply a necessary means for home travel and robbery while the fire is burning - no one in Yangle City knows who doesn't know, and Gongsun Vice Shi of the Comptroller's Office likes to touch people's hands when they meet!
In other words, he shook hands with Han Dang before the war started yesterday evening!
"Oh, Gongsun is the master." Cheng Pu looked down at his hands that were being held, and he couldn't take them away for a while, so he could only stop there. "Although I led the army to meet last night, the enemy camp had collapsed by the time of the engagement, and I really didn't dare to take credit...... Besides, Your Excellency's bravery is really heartbreaking, although the enemy in this battle was dispersed very quickly, but there were nearly 300 beheadings, it was a rare victory in the counties of Youzhou over the years, and Lu Longseri was spreading the prestige of Shaojun. β
"Hey!" Gongsun Xun shook his head again and again, three hundred beheadings are indeed a rare victory in the border counties in recent years, but this is not the beginning of troubled times, and the decapitation of three hundred is considered a fart?
And besides, this decapitation is useless for yourself! In the Han Dynasty system, he has not yet been crowned, and according to the rules, he can only be stuck in the position of two hundred stone deputy history, and Cao Cao, the lord of a county, can't do it, let alone the court officials. In addition, I have to go on a study tour, so this battle merit can only be shared, and I have to change something else.
Of course, it is best to give credit to this Cheng Pu and Han Dang, so that these two can have a good future while admitting their kindness. In this way, at least I can find these two in this place after I come back from Luoyang in the future.
Thinking of this, he squinted, but he quickly let go of one hand, and then called another Jiang Biao Huchen who was talking and laughing with others: "Brother Demou, you see, last night's more than 30 horsemen were all warriors who put their lives on the line, where is my prestige alone?" For example, this Han Dang Han Yigong was the first person to discuss the night attack, and he won a lot last night. Both of them are tigers, and they stand side by side today, which seems to complement each other, so they must get close. β
Cheng Pu and Han Dang glanced at each other and saluted.
However, unlike Han Dang, who had a bulging chest and a bulging belly and was full of energy, Cheng Pu still maintained a low posture, and then said a sentence: "Pu Nai is the chief of the Right Beiping, and the main minister is dead, and he should have fought desperately in that situation at that time, so he really didn't dare to take credit." β
As soon as these words came out, Gongsun Xun and Han Dang woke up together.
In other words, this involves a special political ecology of the Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, the famous dual monarchy of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
What is a dual monarchy? That is, for the scholars and officials of the Eastern Han Dynasty, they actually generally had two objects of allegiance like the monarch.
One is naturally the emperor of the Han Dynasty, this does not need to be explained too much.
The other refers to their own sponsors.
The Han Dynasty employed people in the inspection system, so whoever recommended you to be an official would naturally be your great benefactor. Even, for the person being recommended, there is a kind of authoritarianism similar to that of the monarch, parents, and teachers.
For example, why did the county guard have so much power at this time? Even in the Han Dynasty, people generally regarded the county as the country and the county guard as the king? The answer is simple - most of the county officials in the Han Dynasty were generally appointed and used by the county guards.
Behind this phenomenon, in fact, after the Han Dynasty's idea of centralization and unification was shaken by local powerful forces, it was just a kind of mutual compromise as a last resort.
In fact, why Gongsun Xun felt that he only recommended these two people, and when he came back, these two people would not be able to run out of the palm of his hand, it was actually based on the current situation of this society.
And in the same way, the Cheng Puzhi in front of him is the cowardly Gongsun Zhao, the former is the latter's subordinate official, and the latter is the former's master, so for now, the two naturally have a relationship between monarchs and ministers that is not very strong, but the nature is obvious. Therefore, when Gongsun Zhao was cowardly on Lu Longlou last night and was ignored by the officers below, Cheng Pu, a young official in Tsing Yi, would directly come forward and beg to fight-there is really a taste of the lord humiliating the ministers.
And when it comes to the county guard and Gongsun Zhao, I have to say that this clan uncle finally did a thing today-Lu Longsai's big victory here is a matter of the joint efforts of the two counties, and he has quickly invited the county guard of Youbeiping and the county guard of Liaoxi to come here together to check the head and discuss the beginning and end of this battle.
If you want to win a big victory, these two 'lords' should come over in person soon.
In this way, it will be easy for Gongsun Xun, because he no longer has to carry several truckloads of belongings and go to a place so far away from Yangle in the chaotic situation.
On the other side, while Lu Longsai was jubilant and excited, the Xianbei people, who had fled all night, finally stopped their footsteps...... It's just a little embarrassing.
"Dog slave!" Mo Hu whipped a lowly herdsman in a dirty sheepskin. "Let me break the ice and get water, Lord Ke needs to clean his wounds!"
At the moment of the order, a dozen or so low-level deserters and herdsmen immediately dispersed and went to dig ice on the Luan River to get water. And Mo Huyun had just turned around with a smiling face, but he was also whipped head-on.
"You go too!" An armored soldier who belonged directly to the Ke Zhique tribe was holding a horsewhip with an impatient expression.
Mo Hu covered his side cheeks that were bloody again, his hair was scattered, and he couldn't help but look at Ke Zique who was sitting there, but Ke Zhique's entire cheek was torn open, and a big hole was drilled on the other side, and he fled all night, at this time his whole face was swollen, and he couldn't speak at all.
Even Mo Hu estimated that this adult's consciousness was blurred at this time, where could he still give him justice?
"Why don't you go soon?" The armored Xianbei soldier became impatient again, and whipped it again.
Mo Hu was ashamed and angry, but when he saw five or six armored warriors in front of him, he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to flee in embarrassment.
The north wind is howling, and the Luanhe River is a big river that rushes out of the Yanshan Mountains, so it is a natural outlet. A dozen or so Xianbei people who fled from the camp in disarray, and did not even wear their robes, trousers, and shoes neatly, wanted to dig ice for water in such a place. Finally, he held a stone to crack a thick piece of ice, but before he could fill the skin with water, a gust of wind came and immediately froze again, so he had to stir up the broken ice with his hands.
It was cold, and many people were still injured, and immediately the hands were blurred with flesh and blood, and the feet on the ice were unstable.
"Lord Mohu." Finally, the defeated soldiers really couldn't stand it, and cautiously pleaded with Mo Hu, who was sitting by the river. "Can you ask Lord Mohu to ask those people for a spear and use it to stir up the broken ice?"
Mo Hu, who was covering his face and wrapping his leather jacket, frowned when he heard this, although he hurt his face, but he did not lose his mind like Ke Zique, he saw the situation here clearly, so he nodded after all, and decided to go to those domineering soldiers to ask for a spear.
And then, in exchange for another whip!
Mo Huqi is really angry this time, where is there such a bully?!
I think that the Han people's Amway is also a big business, and I have been downline for many years, and I have always paid attention to a person who does not let the downline suffer, let alone look down on myself. And today, in front of his own Xianbei people, he is just a few pro-soldiers around the adults, or defeated soldiers, but he humiliates himself so many times? !
Why?!
The more Mo Hu thought about it, the more angry he became, and seeing that Master Ke was still delirious after cleaning his wounds, a bold thought suddenly appeared in his heart.
"Settle down in your tribe for a while?" The leader of Ke's most personal soldiers looked at Mo Hu's flattering expression, and was slightly stunned at first, but after looking down at his still bare left foot, he asked impatiently. "How far is it from here?"
"Not far." Mo Hu became more and more flattering. "It's only twenty or thirty miles, and if you leave now, you'll be there tonight...... There are still two jars of wine in my tribe, and I have never been willing to drink it. β
