Zhao Hongyin was resolute and thunderous, like lightning, and pounced on Shunzhou, while the army was still unhurried, marching to the north.

Ye Hua brought Li Congjia to the army and gave him a very good job - feed the horses! God is pitiful, Ye Hua really wants to give a little benefit to the great poet, the groom is a very fat errand, before the war, the war horse ate very well, all of them were concentrate feed, and occasionally there were raw eggs to supplement protein.

Li Congjia can completely steal two eggs, roast them over the fire and eat them, and open a small stove for himself, no one will care about this kind of thing. However, Li Congjia's luck was too bad, he went to feed the horse on the first day, and he was kicked hard, and it was very unfortunate that he kicked out one of his teeth!

Li Daci is shocking, one of the three characteristics of crying ghosts and gods is missing, only a huge front tooth remains, lonely, very ugly and ugly.

Ye Hua thought about it, but let him go to the Chinese army and be responsible for some simple official documents. However, what is surprising is that while dealing with official documents, Li Congjia will sneak out, and Ye Hua will keep an eye on it, but he will not prohibit Li Congjia's actions.

By the time the Great Zhou people arrived in Shunzhou, Li Congjia already had a thick book on his hand, with more than 100 pages.

"You wrote this?" Ye Hua flipped through it casually and said with a smile: "It's quite careful, how to feed war horses, you have almost learned half of it, you are really a great talent, not to be underestimated!" ”

Li Congjia's notes recorded the forage formula of the war horse, how to feed it, and even wrote the habits of many horses, one of which is that you must not run behind the horse's buttocks, otherwise your front teeth may be kicked out!

"It's just a fear of being kicked by a horse again!"

"Why do you need to write down the forage ratio?" Ye Hua asked with a smile.

"This ...... I feel that I don't have to be pressured by art, and it is better to raise horses than to sing, and livestock is actually better than people. The horse kicked me, but these days I have been bringing him hay, helping him to wash it, and talking to it...... Not only did it not kick me, but it allowed me to ride on my back. If the Hou Ye allows, he is willing to keep raising horses. ”

Ye Hua smiled, "Your explanation is very far-fetched, I would like to believe that you want to use this booklet to raise horses and strengthen the army one day, when you are in power." ”

Li Congjia was very calm and said: "What does Master Hou think, he can't interfere with his humble position, but he doesn't think so much about his humble position, and those who leave their hometowns and abandon their country and family can survive for a long time, which is already considered lucky." If I allowed, I would like to change my name so that others will forget me forever, so as not to embarrass my ancestors. ”

"Hahaha!" Ye Hua laughed, "If you want to change your name, it's ready-made, so it's better to call it Li Yu." ”

Li Congjia, uh no, it's Li Yu, he was stunned for a moment, then lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, "Slave Li Yu, meet Master Hou!" ”

Ye Hua was stunned, and then he remembered that the meaning of changing the name was different in different circumstances.

For example, Li Congjia became the emperor, and in order to avoid it, he changed his name to Li Yu, a single word, and it is remote and not easy to make mistakes. This is a royal name change, and there is another case where the master changes the name of the slave.

Once you become a slave of a certain family, no matter what your original name is, you must change your new name so that it is easy for the master to call.

In the current situation, Li Yu would only think that Ye Hua regarded him as a slave.

Although he was angry, he still chose to obey, and even on the way, Li Yu felt that it was nothing at all, no matter how big the humiliation, he could endure it!

Ye Hua couldn't guess Li Yu's mind for the first time, he knelt straight in front of him, respectfully and calmly, but his heart would never think like this...... Ye Hua seemed to see a lotus seed, absorbing nutrients in the muddy mire, waiting for the time to bud.

Most seeds usually don't have a chance to germinate, and Ye Hua can easily crush Li Yu to let him know the news completely. But Ye Hua didn't do it.

He wanted to see, to see what this great lyricist would become!

"Since you are willing to be my slave, I will accept it, from today onwards, you are responsible for raising horses for me, remember to feed the horses well, and you must also sort out those official documents, don't be lazy, otherwise I will severely punish you!"

"Slave understands!" Li Yu lowered his eyebrows and came to the door of the big tent backwards, Ye Hua spoke, "Your wife is not simple, and some ministers of the Southern Tang Dynasty have not given up on you. ”

Li Yu's waist was even more bent, he didn't stop, he turned his head and went to the stable, he couldn't do anything, only feed the horse, wait, there is really a day to come, I will repay you!

……

Li Hongji used 300,000 horses of silk in exchange for the Khitan army.

Some people can't figure it out, what is the use of silk? How could the Khitans be obedient?

This is a good thing, the silk in Jiangnan is a currency that is harder than real money.

Although the Khitan lost Youzhou, in terms of area, it is still the largest country in the world, several times more than the Great Zhou. Their merchant travels could travel to the Western Regions and even enter the Persian Great Eclipse.

There are warhorses of divine horses, sharp sabers, and countless cheap jewelry...... The Khitans are not complete barbarians, they also need commerce, they need huge profits, and they need huge numbers of people to support.

"Da Zhou should develop the navy, at least cut off the route between Liaodong and Jiangnan!"

Ye Hua picked up the pen and filled in the word "water master" on the small notebook he carried.

The next day, Li Yu got up before dawn, went to wash Ye Hua's big green horse, and then mixed a pot full of feed, including bran, bran, bean cake, tender grass, and a handful of white salt...... Li Yu only learned not long ago that war horses also eat salt, and the salt they eat is even better than that of ordinary people!

Jiangnan faced the blockade of the Great Zhou, and after the loss of Yancheng, the salt became more expensive and of extremely poor quality.

A handful of table salt, with half a handful of sand in it, is simply not comparable to what a war horse eats.

Li Yu woke up for the first time, it turned out that life is not only poetry and distance, but also firewood, rice, oil and salt in front of him...... Don't think that the eldest brother is cruel, and he will be spurned by all the people.

Wrong, completely wrong!

If the eldest brother can make all the people eat clean salt, they will definitely kneel at the feet of the eldest brother and sing the praises of the Son of Heaven.

What kills fathers, kills brothers, the common people will only think that those people deserve to die!

Even Li Yu had to admit that Ye Hua gave him a new perspective to look at the world.

He was desolate to find that if he looked up from below, there were too many things, completely different from what he had imagined......

Li Yu didn't know that he was about to face a greater shock, and the people and horses walked forward, less than twenty miles, it was Shunzhou, which had just experienced war, and the smell of gunpowder had not yet dissipated.

On the side of the road, you can still see corpses that have not had time to be cleaned up, woods, valleys, meadows, and ownerless war horses, aimlessly gnawing on the grass, waiting for the new owner to put them away.

An old general led his men and horses to greet him.

"The last general, Zhao Hongyin, visited the Hou Ye."

Ye Hua jumped down from his war horse, "Why should the old general be polite, Ling Lang and I are good friends, you are my elder." ”

Zhao Hongyin hurriedly waved his hand, "Hou Ye is too polite, the second son of the last general has to thank Hou Ye for teaching and care, the last general doesn't dare to call himself an elder!" ”

Ye Hua also smiled, the most unclear thing now is the seniority, he and Zhao Da are friends, but they are Zhao Er's master, Feng Dao is his master, but he wants to marry his granddaughter to him, it is a mess, so he simply doesn't care.

Ye Hua asked Zhao Hongyin to lead the way and came to the east of the city, which was a huge open space, surrounded by antlers, and there were more than 2,000 captives in it, who held their heads and squatted on the ground, trembling, waiting for the arrangement of fate.

"All Khitans?"

"There are also Han people!" Zhao Hongyin said with a dark face: "Master Hou, these shameless brutes, just kill them!" ”

"Don't!"

Ye Hua sneered, "It's cheap to kill them, give them all to Yanyun Development Company, and you can sell them for a good price." ”

Ye Hua said lightly, as if he didn't care, but this sentence directly decided the fate of more than 2,000 people. Li Yu saw a creepy scene.

The veterinarians in the army were dispatched, all with sharp knives in their hands, and some soldiers carried out the prisoners one by one and brought them to the veterinarian.

This was followed by screams one after another...... Li Yu subconsciously covered his crotch, and his face turned green.

"What are you afraid of, is there no eunuch in the palace of the Southern Tang Dynasty?" Zhao Er sneered very unceremoniously.

Li Yu swallowed hard and spat at the mouth, "Could it be that in the Great Zhou Palace, you want to use them as eunuchs?" ”

"Of course not!" Zhao Er said with a smile: "These people are sent to do coolies. ”

"Then, why do you want it, do you want to ......" Li Yu couldn't go on, he just felt that it was too cruel to do so.

"There is no way, the ancestor of your Li family, Emperor Taizong, once used to follow his tribe and follow its customs. As a result, the barbarians multiplied, and after a few decades, there was a rebellion in Anshi, so only by cutting a knife can you rest assured! ”

Li Yu bowed his head silently, in the education he received, the Anshi Rebellion was because Tang Xuanzong favored Yang Guifei and appointed the traitor Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong was the emperor's failure to cultivate virtue and politics, not to follow the royal road, it was the cycle of heavenly principles, and the number of days was like this...... It is natural that the Tang Dynasty prospers and declines.

But Zhao Er told him another answer, and what was worse was that he was still convinced, and the original cliché was thrown out of the clouds by Li Yu.

"In the same book, some people have become good people in governing the country, and some people have read them as elm pimples, this is the opinion of opinion! Your current heat is far worse than Brother Ling, you still have to work hard! ”

Li Yu was silent, he followed Zhao Er, led the war horse for Ye Hua, and came to the northern city of Shunzhou, where the number of soldiers was doubled, and the number of prisoners under his care was also much more, almost three thousand people.

Zhao Hongyin said a few words, Ye Hua's brows furrowed, "What are these people still kept?" Kill it directly! ”

The old general gritted his teeth, "The last general obeys orders!" ”

Li Yu, who was dozens of steps away, was stunned for a moment and killed directly, are these people more barbaric and guilty than the Khitans? Zhao Er didn't speak, just pointed to a few of them, they only had short inches of hair on their heads, and some people were burning incense scars...... Li Yu took a deep breath and whispered in fear: "Yes, there will be retribution!" ”
