(Ah,,,, how do you say it?,Finally filled in the hole of chapter 25.。。。 ）

……

Zuo Zhaodan is a petty official.

Someone said, "But the official has three points of prestige." That's not true. Some officials not only did not dare to put on any prestige, but they also suffered several times. After all, the original intention of establishing official laws is to let these officials, big and small, contribute to the country well, instead of being idle and doing power.

Although violations of official rules are not uncommon, they are more common among officials with slightly higher ranks and powers. And Zuo Zhaodan, who is the county guard of Luotao County, is surrounded by himself, including himself, who is the kind of official law that hangs on his lips every day. After all, there are not many people, and no one wants to do anything to waste this basis for making a living.

The reason why Zuo Zhaodan can become a county guard is actually very simple, simply because his father is a county guard. One night, his father got drunk and fell from the city. Zuo Zhaodan, who was also a soldier in the army at that time, became a county guard in this way. After all, there is no one who wants this kind of position.

The authority of the county guard is really embarrassing to say. Because it stands to reason that the county guard is only half a level lower than the county order, and is in charge of both the military and the government. But in fact, the centurions who were nominally under the jurisdiction of the county guard were able to report directly to the county commander. And once there is a disagreement between the county code and the county order, the county order is based on the higher state capital, and the county code is very independent. These reasons, coupled with the fact that the military was already weak in peacetime, the meaning of the existence of the position of county warden began to blur over time. That is, to be a microphone, and occasionally to top a bag or something.

But Zuo County has a dream in his heart. After all, there is a saying that "a soldier who is not a general is not a good soldier", and Zuo Zhaodan's biggest dream in his heart is to make a great contribution to the world, so that he can be a king and a king for eternity. However, although Zuo Zhaodan can recognize a few words and understand a few poems, he can't quite say words like "tearing the earth and sealing the king", but one day, when his children and grandchildren are watching the play, someone stands next to him and can point to the play on the stage and say to him:

"Hey, this is your ancestor's business."

However, this is also too far, and Zuo Zhaodan himself feels that this wish is really unrealistic. He is already thirty-six, and he does not even have a shadow of a child.

Zuo Zhaodan once married a daughter-in-law, and that was when his father was alive. On the day of the marriage, Zuo's father and son seemed quite happy, Zuo Zhaodan let go of the strange thoughts in his heart, and began to find a way to live a good and ordinary life, but the good times were really short-lived. Two years later, his wife died of dystocia, and with the child in her womb, they said goodbye to Zuo Zhaodan.

The year after his wife died, something happened to his father. was also stimulated by this incident, and the mother, who was already a little demented, was even more conscious for a shorter time.

Xu was too badly hit by reality, and out of order to protect himself from being too desperate, his yearning for fame when he was young expanded in his heart again.

It's a pity that Wan Kang's eleventh year Zhao is very peaceful after all. Moreover, after all, he is only a county guard, even if he makes a little contribution, it is estimated that he will have already been occupied by his superiors and subordinates, and it is really difficult for him to take his turn.

Although it is difficult for lower-level officers to have room for improvement even if they have some merit in peacetime, Zuo Zhaodan is still happy to do so. This can be regarded as a kind of self-paralyzing spiritual sustenance.

After two years of confusion and even reluctance, the thirteenth year of Wankang came.

This year will likely be remembered by many people, both in the present and in the future. And Zuo Zhaodan is the one who remembers quite clearly in the world.

He was certainly not a warmonger, nor were those who had aspired to make a career on the frontier since ancient times. This desire for fame is not so much a way of acting or thinking, but rather a kind of consciousness that is hidden deep in the heart. Enlightenment, on the other hand, only arises when it is needed.

After Zuo Zhaodan learned that Congzhou had fallen, he immediately took the initiative to ask the county commander to participate in the defense of Congzhou, hoping that he could convey it to the higher state capital. However, as a county guard, he is soft-spoken, and the county magistrate doesn't bother to pay attention to him. What's more, this kind of major event has not been ordered from above, so how can I mention it directly.

However, a few days later, Liang Jing's troop transfer order still came down. Unfortunately, in the end, the central government's order was only issued to the state level, so county officials had no right to intervene in the manner and content of its implementation. As for the soldiers transferred out of Hongzhou this time, they were led by the commander of the state government's troops, and only the grass-roots establishment was retained for the conscription in advance, and the higher level was reorganized by the state government. Nominally, this was to prevent the county soldiers from being too independent and influencing the command of the state capital.

Zuo Zhaodan admits that this is reasonable, very reasonable, and there is no problem in any aspect. Why are you so angry?

After this troop transfer, there are about 200 old and weak soldiers and horses left in Luotao County, and the establishment is chaotic. Now Zuo Zhaodan has become a veritable centurion. Speaking of which, the content of the work has not changed much, but Zuo Zhaodan is nesting a fire in his heart, and such a good opportunity to seek military merits is in front of him, but he is stopped by these messy things.

……

"Outside the sword, it was suddenly rumored that the thistle was collected, and the clothes were full of tears when I heard it for the first time." Despite this, when he heard that the defense line in Congzhou had stabilized, Zuo Zhaodan was still very happy. It is rumored that the Zhao army has gained the upper hand, and it will not take long to drive Yan Tatar back to Jiangbei. said the most turbulent and ridiculous, and also said that after the old general Gao was able to win the battle, he crossed the Tiange River north and took the Yandu Song An to clean up the lost territory of Zhao for hundreds of years.

In this regard, Zuo Zhaodan could only smile. However, although he knew that it was unlikely, he still imagined the immense scene of the reconquest of Jiangbei, and he was quite hopeful that he would be credited with this feat, preferably the radiant kind.

But just think about it. Zuo Zhaodan had to accept such a reality.

However, his opportunity still came, during the Lantern Festival in the fourteenth year of Wankang, the Yan army crossed the Tiange River south for the second time, and the end point of their southern crossing was Luotao County.

Of course, Zuo Zhaodan didn't expect such a dramatic unfolding, but even if he did, he wouldn't have responded better than this time. Zuo Zhaodan, who was seriously short of materials and soldiers, did not dare to take the initiative to find the stubble of the Yan army no matter what he said, and Zuo Zhaodan expected that the best situation would be to be able to delay.

But it's a pity that from the beginning to the end, Luotao County was not the target of the Yan army. The lone army went all the way south, barely paying attention to any obstacles. Rao is like this, there are still some counties that have no sense of prevention and have opened their gates to the city have been plundered. They didn't stay long, but the damage they did was severe. Grabbing food and goods, and burning the last fire or something, this situation was very common on the way of the Yan army to the south.

Because of this, several county magistrates were afraid of being blamed by the above, so they put down their black gauze hats, packed up their burdens and left the yamen. If you have a family and a job, you can go through some procedures, and the last resignation letter or something, as for those who have no home and no job, they will take their wives and children directly, and they will go wherever they like.

In troubled times, rumors are easy to spread. Soon, the rumor became that these officials in Hongzhou, who failed to guard the north gate for Liang Jing, would be beheaded after Liang Jing lifted the siege. I don't know if this rumor is true or not, and I don't know who started spreading it first, but it is a fact that it is getting more and more fierce. Later, even the county magistrate of Luotao County was considering whether to leave.

……

On the second day of the second month of the twelfth month of the fourteenth year of Wankang, just when the county magistrate of Luotao County had already loaded the things to be removed into the carriage, Zuo Zhaodan ran directly to the county magistrate from the end of the street.

Before the county order could say anything, Zuo Zhaodan first looked at the carriages around him.

"It seems that the rumors are correct, Jiang County Order, you are trying to escape." Zuo Zhaodan's tone was quite unpolite, and even sneered.

"Zuo County Shou, just spare me, you are a martial artist, and you are not afraid of a scar on your neck. I'm a literati, a powerless literati, what can I do? In the troubled times, how can I control my own life. Now in this situation, I can't live if I win Zhao, and I can't live if I win Yan. Or do you want me to surrender to the enemy? ”

The words of the county magistrate were like a series of cannons, and there was also a bitter and hateful expression on his face, "If there is a choice, who he* does not want to be righteous and awe-inspiring." I'll ask you, Zuo Zhaodan, you are also a master who doesn't have a backache when you stand and talk. One of you and the rest of the family is not hungry, and I still have a family......

"Enough!" Zuo Zhaodan interrupted him, and with this scolding, the county magistrate also took away the expression on his face as if he had eaten coptis.

"I don't have a wife! I'm not going to feed her, am I? Your mind isn't sober. Ah yes, you are a literati, your family has a big business, but you are also a high-grade official of the imperial court, a high-grade official of the wheel! Over the years, your wife and children have said that it was raised by the imperial court, and you just left? Zhao really raised a group of white-eyed wolves. ”

"Then tell me what I can do if I stay!" Jiang Xianling's voice suddenly rose several degrees, "Do you think I didn't hesitate and think about it?" Speaking of this, Jiang Xianling pursed his lips.

"Okay, don't stop me, the county guard Zuo, the carriage can't go." Jiang Xianling left this sentence in a trembling voice and turned away. The old energy that came from the inside out of those words made Zuo Zhaodan forget to argue, and even made way for him.

So Luotao County did not have a county order.

……

Zuo Zhaodan was a little empty, after all, he ignored the most important question, that is, what he could do with his own strength. With a reckless desire to stop the carriage leaving by the county order, he now realized that he actually had no so-called purpose at all. There is nothing to be done and nothing can be done, and all actions will not change the situation.

Sitting next to his mother, Zuo Zhaodan scratched his head thinking about the future.

I'm a martial artist myself. Zuo Zhaodan finally realized the deeper meaning of the sentence of the county order. After all, in troubled times, if you are bent on making contributions, you shouldn't think about it until this time.
