Chapter 30 The North Wind Sweeps the Ground and Breaks the Grass
Looking at the whole world, there is already wolf smoke, and the imperial court also wants to encourage people with the war that it can take, so naturally, Mu Yi's victory this time has become the focus.
Under the vigorous propaganda of the imperial court, almost no one in the entire Luoyang City, from the dignitaries to the peddlers and pawns, did not know about the victory.
Miao Xiaodie sits in the garden pavilion with an indescribable smile on her face. A breeze blew, and the empty cuffs swayed gently with the breeze.
Looking down at the sleeve that was already missing half of her arm, Miao Xiaodie's heart swelled with a strong sense of loss. Mu Yi has repeatedly made military exploits on the battlefield, and he will definitely be a marquis in the future. But he is a slave and maid, and he is also a cripple with one hand missing, if Mu Yi marries a wife, will he take care of himself like now? What to do about kicking yourself out of the house?
Bistro
Liu Ruxue was already out of the world when she climbed on the counter, and the smile on her face showed that he was full of happiness at the moment.
The little maid Tao'er pouted and sighed helplessly: "Alas...... My sister is a nymphomaniac again!"
Liu Ruxue glared at Tao'er, leaned on the counter with her chin in her hands, blinked her two big watery eyes, as if she was talking to herself, and seemed to say to Tao'er: "I won the battle so quickly and made a meritorious service, it won't be long before I can be crowned a marquis, and if the slave family marries in the past, and I see those sisters in the drunken fragrance building in the future, wouldn't I envy them to death?"
"Sister......" Tao'er said in a long voice: "How can a brother like a son in a high position marry someone like us who was born in a green building?" Maybe he's just like other stinky men, he wants to get his sister's body and rest, and my sister must not just get out of the wolf's den and enter the tiger's den!"
"Cut...... What do you know little girl? He is not that kind of person, don't you know, at that time in Shili Pavilion, he was concerned about the slave family, saying that it was not safe outside, and let the slave family come back quickly!"
Momoko rolled her eyes helplessly, she really didn't know what to say. My sister, who is usually quite shrewd, how did she become like this now?
"Sister, is it a little taken for granted? It's just a greeting between acquaintances, and even if a strange man sees his sister and a weak woman outside, he will advise you to hurry home......"
That's it, the two of you say a word, and the back and forth topics revolve around Mu Yi.
……
Since the last good news came to Luoyang, there will be good news every three or five times in the following days.
When the last 800-mile expedited delivery arrived, it was already October weather.
Emperor Han Ling's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile when he saw the good news, thinking that he had made a fairly correct decision, that is, to send Mu Yi to Xiliang to quell the rebellion.
After reading the eight hundred miles in his hand, Emperor Han Ling turned his gaze to Zhang Rang on the side and said: "Father, this Mu Yi attacked the city and plundered the land, and the army was already stationed under the city of Tianshui County, if such a great merit is not rewarded, I am afraid it will cause controversy among others." How does Father think the widow should reward him? ”
Zhang Rang's eyes rolled, and he bowed and said: "Your Majesty, according to the old slave's opinion, it is better to Feng Muyi with the false title of 'Guannei Hou', and then issue an edict to let him form a cavalry in Xiliang, and the appointment and dismissal of the generals under his command are all decided by himself, so that the military power of his relatives can also be weakened." However, don't give him the edict until you are sure whether he is loyal to the emperor, and it is not too late to read it out after you are sure. ”
Emperor Han Ling nodded sympathetically, the general's power is too great now, and he is in charge of the military power in the world, if there is any dissent, whether his throne can sit still is two words.
The Eighth Lieutenant of the West Garden has just been formed, and they are all newly recruited young and strong, so they don't have much combat effectiveness at all. If it can be determined that Mu Yi is a loyal minister, he can be used to deal with the generals.
For Zhang Rang, what is loyal to the emperor? In fact, it is very simple, as long as you send someone to the front line for a walk, if Mu Yiken sends him gold and silver treasures, it is naturally loyal, if you refuse to give it, then you can only be cleared as a dissident!
October was already unusually cold and the weather was starting to snowflake.
It was difficult to attack the city in the cold weather, so the officers and soldiers had no choice but to set up camps, dig deep trenches, and build fences.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Mu Yi sat by a brazier, muttering to himself while roasting the fire: "The north wind sweeps the ground and the grass breaks, and the snow will fly in August." Suddenly, like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloom. I didn't expect that the cool weather in the west was not inferior to the grassland, but the weather in October was already cold like this. ”
Jia Xu and Guo Jia tasted those few lines of poetry, and after a while, Jia Xu said with a smile: "The lord is very literate, but this poem doesn't seem to be complete, I don't know if it is a broken sentence caused by feelings, or there is already a whole poem?"
Mu Yi is in no mood to talk about poetry now, and said perfunctorily at will: "How can there be any whole poem, just chant a few words casually!" By the way, in such a cold weather, have the warmth measures of the soldiers been solved? ”
Jia Xu nodded: "After these battles, we have captured a lot of supplies, and we have purchased a large number of winter clothes and quilts in various surrounding counties, and each of the officers and men in the army has received a set of winter clothes and quilts, and I don't think anyone will freeze to death because of the cold weather."
"That's good! Since they followed General Ben to fight, General Ben must at least solve their food and clothing. Did the methods that General Ben taught the military doctors a few days ago to deal with wounds effective? ”
Speaking of this, Jia Xu suddenly showed admiration: "Don't worry, since the method of the lord's religion has been used, none of the wounded soldiers in the army have died because of festering wounds, and the method of stitching up the wounds is even more miraculous, saving many soldiers who are on the verge of death."
Speaking of this, Jia Xu looked like he wanted to say something, rubbed his hands for a long time before saying, "Can the lord give that alcohol to Xu Yitan?" That's amazing!"
Mu Yi stared at Jia Xu for a long time, and said solemnly: "Mr. Wenhe doesn't want to drink it as wine, right?" You can't drink that thing, it's going to kill you? Even if you want to drink it, you need to blend it!"
"Huh? I can't drink it!"
Not only Jia Xu, but others also showed disappointed looks.
……
At the end of October, the eunuchs sent by the imperial court to inspect the barracks came to the barracks, but when they arrived at the barracks, their nostrils were facing the sky, and their eyes had grown to the door of their heads, so they didn't pay attention to these officers and soldiers at all.
For the bird-like appearance of this group of eunuchs, Mu Yi was already surprised. With this kind of virtue, you don't have to think about it to know what they are doing.
Mu Yi knew very well in his heart that there were two choices in front of him, the first was not to take care of these eunuchs and end up with the same ending as Lu Zhi. The second is to give them a large amount of wealth to calm people, and maybe they can say a few good words for themselves when they go back.
