72. Differential treatment Jingwei is promoted

In the evening, Yang Kaishan and Sun Biao carried Yang Youhuai back from the Qinglou with satisfaction and came to Liu Ce's room to report.

"How? Are you satisfied? When Liu Ce saw Yang Kaishan and Sun Biao's appearance, he knew that they should be very happy this time.

Sun Biao smiled: "I haven't been so satisfied for a long time, thank you for the general's success, hehe." ”

Liu Ce interrupted him angrily: "As long as you don't harm the women of the good family, remember to train the soldiers after you go back, and Sun Biao, you and Yang Kaishan are not too young, it's time to think about becoming a family." ”

Yang Kaishan said: "General I can save it, when the Zhao'an documents come down and go to the Far East to settle down, Sun Biao and I will find a suitable woman to marry, and it is time to have a home." ”

Liu Ce nodded and said, "Well, it's pretty much the same." Then he saw Yang Youhuai, whose legs were still trembling, and couldn't help asking, "Brother Yang, what's wrong with you?" Sick? ”

"I didn't ...... It's not ......" Yang Youhuai said embarrassedly with a flushed face, he was through the clouds and rain at the beginning of today, and the many tricks of the Qinglou made him greatly insightful, and he felt that the whole person's spirit was about to be squeezed dry, and his legs were still weak and trembling, feeling like stepping on clouds.

Yang Kaishan and Sun Biao glanced at each other and snickered secretly, Liu Ce couldn't help but shake his head when he saw their expressions, it seemed that these two damaged goods had damaged a pure teenager......

Sun Biao approached Liu Ce and said mysteriously, "General, aren't you going to try it?" Wrap you up with a fairy-like treat. ”

Liu Ce chuckled and shook his head, although he came from the world of advanced science and technology, he was still very traditional about men and women in his bones, thinking that the emotionless fornication with a woman in the wind and dust was just a transaction, which made him feel very disgusting, he couldn't care what others did, but he would restrain himself no matter how he was in this area, unless he met a woman who made him like it. Besides, he is about to go to the Far East, where the situation is much worse than Heyuan, and he will face the famous foreign army outside the Saiwai, this is a real elite army, far from being comparable to the rabble of thieves, whether he can survive or not is a problem, how can he still have the heart to think about this matter, only by surviving can he consider such a stormy and snowy mood, and it is not Liu Ce's style to have wine today and get drunk today.

……

"Dad, I've decided to go to the Far East with the general!" In Xu Hui's room, he was having his first formal communication with his father Xu Yan. After all, Liu Ce didn't really watch Xu Hui being beaten to death by his father, and stepped forward to persuade them to leave, hoping that they would have a good conversation and let Xu Hui tell his father what he was thinking.

Xu Yan said: "Son, you have to think about it, the Far East is a place surrounded by tigers and wolves, and it is extremely dangerous, do you really want to go?" The Jingwei battalion you are talking about is only the army of the Shu people, will anyone in the Far East support such an army? ”

Xu Hui said: "Dad, I have benefited a lot from these days in the Jingwei Camp, so that the child has learned a lot of truths, the general is not an ordinary person, he will definitely create a miracle, if it weren't for him, the child would have died in Houtu Fort." ”

Xu Yan sighed and said, "That's it, since my son has such ambitions, my father is very pleased, but I have a request, after you go to the Far East, you must marry me a daughter-in-law and come back, and it is best to give birth to ten or eight grandchildren to see me." ”

Xu Hui exclaimed: "Dad, did you agree?" ”

Xu Yan got up and straightened Xu Hui's clothes and said: "Go, my Xu family has been in decline for a long time, and my father's age can no longer be counted on, if you can glorify the lintel and restore the honor of your ancestors, why doesn't your father support it?" Your mother will cook there, the Far East is cold, remember to take care of your body, see my son grow up and my father is very pleased. ”

Xu Hui choked up and said, "Daddy......"

……

Two days later, the eunuchs who came to announce the decree from the imperial court had arrived by boat to the Tengjiang River.

At this time, the road along the Caizhou coast had been completely blocked, and soldiers with swords were everywhere guarding both sides of the riverbank. On the wharf, Wei Yi, Zhao Yuanji, Zhu Song, Zong Sheng, Liu Ce, and Li Suwen, who had just arrived yesterday while the Tengjiang bridge was repaired, and other local officials stood quietly in place, watching the angel ship slowly approaching, but seeing several sailors on the boat, they accurately threw a few thick hemp rope sleeves on the stakes of several standing boats on the wharf, and then pulled hard, and the huge ship slowly stopped......

But hearing a burst of gongs, drums and bells playing in unison, the Great Zhou announced the angel, Jinsheng's father-in-law was surrounded by everyone on the boat, slowly walked down the wooden steps of the boat, one of the little eunuchs who ran off the boat before, immediately lay down at the entrance of the wooden steps, Jinsheng stepped on the back of the eunuch and walked to the red carpet laid out in advance.

Wei Yi led the crowd to immediately step forward to greet him, knelt down in front of Jinsheng and said loudly: "Congratulations to welcome the angels!" ”

"Welcome Angels!" Hundreds of officials shouted in unison on the dock, and the atmosphere was extremely warm for a while.

Jin Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to help Wei Yi and said: "The prince doesn't want to do this big gift, it's really a torment for the slave and maid, the saint is very concerned about the prince, wait for this matter, please go back to Beijing with the slave and maid to meet the saint." ”

Wei hurriedly said: "Thank you for your concern." ”

Jin Sheng exchanged a few more polite words with Wei Yi, and hurriedly said to the hundred officials kneeling on the ground: "Get up." ”

Hearing this, everyone thanked each other, and Jin Sheng slowly came to Zhao Yuanji's side and bowed down and said: "Governor Zhao, the thieves have troubled the source of the river over the years, and you have suffered a lot, and the emperor is also very sorry for Lord Zhao, so he specially sent a hundred Dongzhu to express his heart." ”

Zhao Yuanji choked up and said: "Thank you for your concern, I am willing to do my best for the Great Zhou Society, and I will never give up!" After speaking, he knelt down heavily, and the surrounding officials said secretly when they saw it: Sure enough, Zhao Yuanji and his uncle Zhao Yourong are like birds, talents!

Jinsheng and some important officials at the dock met one by one, and then shouted softly: "Where is Liu Ce?"

Liu Ce rushed out of the crowd, respectfully clasped his fists and said, "Under Liu Ce, I have seen the angel!" ”

Jin Sheng glanced at him, and found that he was really as described in Wei Yi's letter, unusually young, and after looking at him for a moment, he took out a document from his sleeve and said: "Liu Ce, from today onwards, your Jingwei battalion is an official army, remember to abide by my Great Zhou law, don't do anything wrong, you must be loyal to the royal family, the saint is extra important to you, specially named you the title of Captain Yi, expand your battalion headquarters into a flag regiment, the situation in the Far East is urgent, you take the documents and leave quickly, prepare to start as soon as possible......"

These words have been extra obvious, and even the reading of the holy decree has been omitted, which is equivalent to not taking this Liu Ce and Jingwei Camp in their eyes, and some people around them can't help but shake their heads, sighing Sure enough, the Shi clan is the foundation of the Great Zhou Society, how can a mere righteous army make them treat each other differently? Zhu Song and Zong Sheng secretly sneered, only Li Suwen frowned, Far East? Why did you let Liu Ce and Jingwei Camp go? Isn't it yourself? What the hell is going on.

Liu Ce knelt down and said loudly: "The last general must abide by the teachings of the emperor and the angels, and he will live up to his trust!" After finishing speaking, his hands were about to take the paperwork, but he saw Jinsheng's Chinese book gently sliding to the ground.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Commander Liu, our family has been on the boat for too long, and we are physically and mentally exhausted, and this hand is soft for a while, and I can't lift it, I hope you will be more considerate...... Hahaha......" After saying that, he laughed a few times and walked towards the governor's mansion surrounded by everyone, and there were people around who laughed softly, and Zong Sheng and Zhu Song snorted coldly with disdain, Shu? Also worthy of royal appreciation and trust?

Liu Ce was soon left alone on the dock, he slowly picked up the paperwork on the ground and stood up, looked at the place where the hundred officials disappeared and sneered: "Just want to give me a dismount?" I, Liu Ce, can stand tall in the army of hundreds of thousands of thieves, it's ridiculous to try to deter me with this means, wait, with this official skin, I will definitely turn the Far East upside down! As soon as he turned around, the simple cloak on Liu Ce's body set off a flying brilliance in the river breeze on the dock......

……

When Jinsheng received the holy decree in the governor's palace, all the officials present were shocked! In addition to canonizing Li Suwen as a general and a series of dazzling rewards, the emperor even gave him the sixteen-year-old Princess Yuxiang to marry. This kind of reward has long been shocked by the crowd and cannot say a word! What does this mean? Li Suwen is a concubine, and he is also a relative of Emperor Qin! The rise of the Li family again is already unstoppable!

When Li Suwen heard the news, his mind was blank, although the Li family was bound to regain his prestige, but he still struggled in his heart to chant: "Ruoyan, Ruoyan!" What am I going to do! ”

On the second day, the news that Li Suwen was about to become the master of the horse spread to all provinces, and the whole country rejoiced, feeling envious and jealous that Li Suwen could win this honor.

On that day, Wei Yi personally chartered the most luxurious restaurant in Caizhou City, and hundreds of officials in Caizhou City kept celebrating Li Suwen. Jin Sheng also celebrated and toasted him during the banquet, Zhao Yuanji knew that there was a qualitative gap between his identity and Li Suwen at this time, so he could only stubbornly continue to please him.

Li Suwen's face was full of energy, and he and the officials kept toasting each other, but his heart was extremely tormented, and he couldn't stop calling out like blood: "Ruoyan, don't blame me, the emperor's order cannot be violated, but you are the only one in my heart......"

When the news of Li Suwen's reward spread all over the streets and alleys, it was very lively for a while, and countless women were saddened by this, and dared to ask which woman in the sky did not love Li Suwen? Now that Princess Yuxiang is preemptive, she doesn't dare to fight with the royal family, so she can only hide in her own room and cry alone in her imagination.

At this time, Liu Ce, another canonized object, silently embarked on the journey back to Gaoyang, which had long been forgotten. Almost everyone didn't know that there was such a thing, let alone that during the fall of the Ganzhou Plain, there was a young general with a simple army who was constantly fighting everywhere in order to survive, and everywhere he passed, the displaced people were saved from being poisoned by thieves because of this army......

……

Half a month later, in front of the ruined Houtu Fort, 5,700 soldiers of the Jingwei Battalion were all riding on horses, neatly arranged, and another 2,400 escort teams were also ready to go, surrounded by mules, horses and donkey carts full of supplies and equipment. The flags representing the various departments fluttered in the wind, and the glorious totem belonging to all the soldiers of the Jingwei Battalion, the Jingwei Bird, was crackling in the raging wind.

The humiliating situation at Liu Ce's wharf has been seen by the accompanying generals, which is in stark contrast to Li Suwen's applause from the whole city. They felt very unwilling for Liu Ce, but Liu Ce didn't care at all like a nobody, and he didn't hide it, and soon the whole battalion knew about it, and everyone was angry that their generals had suffered such humiliation......

Liu Ce rode slowly to the front of the formation, followed by Qin Mo and Ye Bin. Qin Mo was very guilty when he learned that Liu Ce was humiliated, but Liu Ce comforted him that he didn't have to care at all, and immediately Qin Mo also felt sincere admiration for Liu Ce's endurance.

"Mr. Ye, have the soldiers' families, craftsmen, and the people of Wanzhuang been arranged?" Liu Ce asked Ye Bin.

Ye Bin said: "General Hui, the arrangements have been made, 17,000 soldiers' families, the people of Wanzhuang and 1,200 craftsmen of all professions have all been arranged to Xu Tong's ship, I believe that they can reach their destination by going to sea for two months." ”

Xu Tong is Ye Bin's friend for many years, running a shipping and transportation business, and when he heard that Liu Ce's population of nearly 20,000 and many materials needed to be transported, he couldn't help but feel difficult. Fortunately, he has been in this business for decades, and soon found many reliable peers to take on such a large business together. In order to ensure the safety of the soldiers' families all the way, Liu Ce deliberately spent a large amount of silver to give Xu Tong, and placed thousands of stones of grain, vegetables and fruits to ensure that they would not go hungry all the way and could adapt to a series of discomforts caused by wind and waves at sea.

Liu Ce nodded and said, "Mr. Ye, I'm bothering you this time!" ”

Ye Bin said with a straight face: "General, don't say that, from the moment the general gets the Zhao'an documents, Brother Qin and I will officially serve the Jingwei Battalion!" That's for the next part! ”

Qin Mo nodded, and then dismounted and knelt on the ground with Ye Bin: "Mo (Bin)!" Meet the General! ”

The cold wind was howling, and the north in January was still very cold, Liu Ce rode and rode a horse, and calmly accepted the allegiance of Qin Mo and Ye Bin!

"Let's go." Liu Ce said lightly, rode his horse slowly to the front of the formation, looking at the cold wind of the flag, nearly 6,000 soldiers of the elite guard battalion with armor, and felt that the heaven and the earth seemed to be connected, how spectacular.

"Brothers! You are the toughest warriors in the world! I vowed to make your lives better! Let you live with dignity! Let your wives and children no longer suffer from hunger and cold! Let your children and grandchildren be proud to have elders like you! But! ”

Liu Ce paused, slowly glanced at everyone, and said loudly: "There are thousands of obstacles ahead that will stop you from moving forward!" Greedy nobles! Ignorant and barbaric and inhumane! Our journey has just begun! Tell me! Do you have the confidence to break down all these obstacles that stand in your way? Answer me! ”

"Yes!" Thousands of soldiers shouted in unison!

"Be louder! I can't hear you! ”

"Yes! Yes! Yes! The officers and soldiers below, regardless of the officers and soldiers, let out a heart-rending roar, which resounded throughout the world.

Liu Ce nodded heavily and continued to shout: "Okay! Then follow me! Set foot in the chaotic land of the Far East! Tell the world with your bravery! I'm in the Elite Battalion! Here it comes! ”

"Jingwei has passed! Troubled times are auspicious! ”

"Jingwei has passed! Troubled times are auspicious! ”

The boundless sound waves came and went, forming an indestructible and strong willpower, which shook in this devastated land, and the totem of the Jingwei camp was particularly dazzling in the cold wind and sun......

Liu Ce waved his hand, stopped the sound and shouted: "Jingwei Battalion! Let's go! ”

As soon as the words fell, the "Hope" of the Jingwei Battalion Military Band played, and the majestic sound of hope spread throughout the team......

"Sigh Rule~"

The sound of the horse's roar and neighing, accompanied by the sound of heavy iron hooves, rushed straight to the far east. Liu Ce looked at the Houtu Fort where he had fought bloodily, and the scene of the thieves pressing the realm and the defeat and fleeing was vivid, as if it happened yesterday was as eye-catching.

"I will never accept this way of living, and I don't want to go through it a second time." Liu Ce secretly swore an oath, kicked his legs, neighed the war horse under his crotch and slowly stepped away, facing the rising sun......
