Chapter 70: Autumn Hunting

That night, Jiang Wei was so unprecedentedly that he had never practiced martial arts. He hid alone in the barracks, with an oil lamp, and was neatly writing Li Bai's "Will Enter the Wine" on a roll of silk silk with his subordinate body. Because it is something that the Si people want, he attaches great importance to it, and every stroke is carefully considered before he puts it down.

He had only written two articles in a whole night, and was now working on a third. He was going to choose the one with the most appropriate calligraphy to send out. Tomorrow is the day of rest, just in the name of visiting Zhang Bao, and then visit the right general's mansion.

Because he was so engaged in writing, he didn't know that Mi Wei had been standing in front of the case for a while.

"Boyo is really Yaxing, he actually hid here to write poems, making me easy to find, is this the poem you chanted during Zhang Bao's banquet?"

Jiang Wei looked up and saw Mi Wei's narrow expression, hurriedly put away the silk silk, and asked, "In the middle of the night, Zhonglang will look for me, but I want to drink another three hundred cups?" ”

Mi Wei and Jiang Wei have been working together in Yulin Wei for a long time, and their perception of each other is quite good. After the banquet in Zhang Bao's mansion that day, the friendship was sublimated. The two are now called friends in private, and they are much less restrained with each other.

Mi Wei was really scared to drink that day, and when he heard the word "drink" at this moment, he faintly felt a headache, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "There is indeed something serious to come tonight." Hmm, do you remember the autumn hunt? ”

Jiang Wei said: "I heard it that day, it seems to be the day after tomorrow?" ”

Mi Wei bowed his head and said: "Yes, Yulin Wei is the main guard, and he needs to send Santun military horses to accompany him... Just now there is a letter from the city, and the lord asks you to participate in this autumn hunt by name. ”

Jiang Wei said: "Why is this? ”

"General Huang and General Zhao have reported the results of Yu Linwei's contest to the lord. The lord praised us for their good governance of the army, so he named the two of us and supported Wu Xiao Ertun to accompany them. ”

"I see."

Mi Wei smashed his fist on Jiang Wei's shoulder socket and said with a smile: "Being able to show his face in front of the lord is an opportunity that many people can't ask for." How can you be so indifferent. Okay, don't rest tomorrow, pack up your bow and arrow armor, and set off with me early the next morning. ”

After sending Mi Wei away, Jiang Wei secretly thought: "The next time I go back to the city, I don't know when it will be." ”

He silently put away the half-written silk silk, and when he raised his eyes, he suddenly saw the divine sword Lin Jia hanging next to the bed, and it was emitting a faint cold light under the candlelight. Jiang Wei stared at it for a long time, shook his head and said: "Jiang Wei, Jiang Wei, you came to Shuzhong to help the Han family, how can you be so attached to the love of children, you really shouldn't be!" ”

Thinking about this section, he was shocked.

It has been a month and a half since the last visit to Fa Zheng and Zhuge Liang, and I don't know if these two said that Liu Bei, the lord of the lord, adjusted the strategy of Jingzhou. The day after tomorrow, one of the two will be escorted, and it will be better to consult one or two more when the time comes.

Autumn hunting, also known as autumn hunting, in the Spring and Autumn Period, Zuo Qiu Ming mentioned in the article "Zuo Chuan: Zang Xi Bo Advises to Watch Fish": "Spring harvesting, summer seedlings, autumn hunting, and winter hunting are all in the agricultural gap to talk about things." It can be seen that as early as the Zhou Dynasty, the princes had the habit of hunting in the four seasons of agriculture and leisure, and took this opportunity to learn military affairs.

After the Spring and Autumn Period, under the influence of Confucianism, spring and summer are the time when all things occur, and it is not appropriate to kill; In winter, everything is bad, but the weather is too cold, and the animals are rarely active, and they are not suitable for hunting. Therefore, the autumn hunting event has been elevated to the level of a national gift.

Liu Bei lived in the Han Dynasty and highly respected such ceremonial activities. In the early two years, due to the Hanzhong Campaign, the autumn hunt has not been able to be carried out. This year, Shu Han Xinde Hanzhong County, Jingxiang War is also a success, under the prosperity of the country, the ministers of the DPRK and China unanimously decided to do this autumn hunt to be grand and important, one to show off the national prestige, the other can show off martial arts, to subdue the domestic young people.

Jiang Wei was dressed before dawn today, and he and Mi Wei were two early, leading the Jiazitun of Jufu, Wu Xiao's Yizitun, and Shen Feng of Xinzitun, waiting on the side of the road leading to the mouth of the Guanjiang River. This is where they will gather their large forces and then go to the hunting ground together.

The time is still short, and the appointment documents of Jufu and Wu Xiao have not yet come down, so they are still leading the troops and horses of the headquarters. But they knew in their hearts that this autumn hunt was named to accompany them, and the appointment was likely to be settled.

In addition, because of Shen Feng's outstanding performance, Jiang Wei had the intention to promote him, and he also took Xinzitun where he was with him.

In late autumn, the sky is already a little cold, and the morning dew condenses into water droplets on the armor of the generals, making people shiver from the cold. But these generals were extremely eager in their hearts, and they didn't take the chill to heart at all.

Soon after, with the sound of rumbling footsteps, a long line appeared in everyone's field of vision. But seeing that the flag covered the sky and the sun, the queue was endless, and there were two or three thousand people who came with the car, and the riding steps were mixed, and the barking of the hunting dog was faintly heard.

Jiang Wei saw Zhang Bao at the front of the team at a glance. He is fully armed today, holding a snake spear, a divine sword and tiger pike around his waist, and a black horse and a divine horse under his crotch are abnormal, which shows that he is tall and burly, and his majesty is majestic.

He also saw Mi Wei and Jiang Wei waiting on the side, and waved his hand happily.

All three of them stepped forward.

Mi Wei laughed and said: "Zhang Zhonglang will dress this up, which is bound to be the leader of this hunt!" ”

Zhang Bao smashed his fist at Mi Wei and scolded: "You guy, you know that my archery skills are not good, and you still make fun of me like this, see if I don't beat you all over the ground to find your teeth." ”

Mi Wei bent down to dodge and said with a smile: "Then this time, we Yu Linwei will be the leader." ”

Jiang Wei immediately greeted Zhang Bao and asked, "Brother Zhao and second brother of the Wei family, are they all here?" ”

Zhang Bao said: "It's all here, even the crown prince Liu Chan is also here." and the children of the wealthy families in Shu also came. Hmph, these people are cold and weird, I don't like it. ”

Jiang Wei understood the conservative family in Shuzhong that Zhang Bao was referring to. For example, the Zhang family of Shu County, the Yan family of Ba County, the Huang family of Brazil, the Nan'an Fei family, and the Li family of Jianning, these are all great families that have been inherited in Shu for more than a hundred years.

Because Liu Yan and Liu Bei, the two foreign conquerors, brought their own leadership teams with them when they entered Shu, the rights assigned to the local families were already pitiful.

Especially after Liu Bei entered Shu, he implemented the salt and iron monopoly policy. While enriching the national treasury, this also seriously damaged the economic interests of the local family. It is good to say that the family that has been awarded the official position is not so easy to get along with. Their attitude towards the Shu Han regime can only be described in eight words: "unable to resist and unwilling to cooperate".

Liu Bei invited some of the children of these families to come out this time, not necessarily without the intention of beating and deterring.

At this time, Zhang Bao picked up the divine knife and tiger pico, and the scabbard made by Ma Jun had been replaced outside, and grinned: "Look, this is the scabbard you gave me, it looks good and durable, I really like it." ”

Mi Wei looked at it for a while, and shouted: "If it doesn't work, it can't be done, such a good thing, Boyo can increase the ability to favor one over the other, and you will give me one when you go back." This means that those who see it have a share and have equal interests. ”

Jiang Wei smiled: "Okay, good, Mi Zhonglang will have an order, and the last general should obey it." ”

As he spoke, the large army was slowly approaching, and Zhang Bao said: "Old rules, you Yulinwei open the way!" Let's go, don't delay the trip. ”

Mi Wei urged the war horse and laughed loudly: "I have to walk this road once a year, and I won't make a mistake with my eyes closed." ”
