Volume 1 Don't Use the Hidden Dragon Chapter 46 Killing Chickens and Monkeys
Li Mu saw some people standing at the east gate of Yunwu City from a distance, presumably subordinate officials of Jincheng County. When Li Mu and his party walked five miles away from Yunwu City, they saw two people riding towards Li Mu and his party. Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao stepped forward, wanting to stop the two who came from a distance.
Li Mu fixed his eyes and said with a smile: "Second brother, third brother, it was Hansheng and Yuan Zhi who came to greet us. ”
Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao reined in their horses, and in a moment, Huang Zhong and Xu Shu came to Li Mu, turned over and dismounted, bowed deeply to Li Mu, and said, "Huang Zhong and Xu Shu have seen the lord!" ”
Li Mu smiled and said: "Hansheng and Yuanzhi don't have to be polite, I didn't expect you to come one step earlier than me, your family is okay?" ”
The two said in unison: "Thank you for your concern, everything is fine!" ”
Li Mu said with a smile: "That's good, let's go into the city, and when we settle down, we will pick up the wind and wash the dust for everyone tonight." ”
Everyone was naturally overjoyed, and Li Mu and his party came to the east gate of Yunwu City. I saw an official of about forty steps forward, bowed to Li Mu, and said, "Chen Yi, the official of Jincheng County, pays a visit to Lord Taishou. ”
Li Mu jumped off the red dragon, returned the salute, and said: "Chen Juncheng doesn't need to be polite, Chen Juncheng also went out of the city to greet the official." ”
Chen Yi said with a smile: "It's not hard, it's the duty of the lower officials." ”
Li Mu said with a smile: "I'm tired of Chen Juncheng leading the way, let's go back to Taishou Mansion first." ”
Chen Yi said yes, and led the way in front, Li Mu looked as he walked, there were still a lot of people on the street of Yunwu City. I don't know who shouted "See Taishou", and then a group of people began to shout in unison, "See Taishou". Li Mu nodded with a smile, bowed back to everyone, and said loudly: "Folks, don't be polite, everyone is about to disperse." "Some people dispersed, and some people followed Li Mu to the gate of the Taishou Mansion before they dispersed.
Li Mu glanced at the gate of Taishou Mansion, which was obviously renovated. Li Mu turned to look at Chen Yi and said, "Chen Juncheng, you go down to rest first, I won't meet you today, and tomorrow I will ask everyone to wait for the official in the Taishou Mansion." Chen Yi said yes, then turned around and retired.
I saw several servants and maidservants come forward, bent down to Li Mu and saluted, and shouted in unison: "Slaves and maids meet your lord!" ”
Li Mu nodded and said, "It's all polite, you can bring in the luggage in the back." When the servants and maidservants heard this, they hurried to carry their luggage.
Li Mu walked to Diao Chan's carriage and said with a smile: "Cicada, we are home, come down." ”
Diao Chan opened the curtain, smiled and stretched out his hand to Li Mu, and Li Mu hugged Diao Chan to the ground. Yang got out of the carriage and saw that Li Mu was going to come to help her, and he was a little panicked. Seeing this, Diao Chan hurriedly stepped forward and lifted Yang out of the carriage. When the group of servants and maidservants saw this, they thought to themselves that the young woman should be Mrs. Taishou, and the old woman should be Mrs. Taishou's mother, and they should pay attention to it in the future. This time, the two brothers, Zhao Yun and Zhao Feng, had a long memory, and they each hugged Fan Juan and Liu Li out of the carriage.
Li Mu watched everyone get out of the carriage, and said with a smile: "Everyone go in, we will pick up the wind and wash the dust in the Taishou Mansion tonight." ”
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard Li Mu's words. As soon as Li Mu and his entourage came to the hall and sat down, a maid came up with refreshments, and Li Mu ordered the kitchen to hurry up. Li Mu glanced at the servant girl standing on the side and asked, "What's your name, how many cross-courtyards does this Taishou Mansion have?" ”
The maidservant replied respectfully: "Lord Hui, the maid is called Dongmei, there are sixteen cross-courtyards in this Taishou Mansion, and they have all been cleaned. ”
Li Mu nodded and said, "Yes, so we all have a place to live." Hansheng, Yuanzhi, you will move into the Taishou Mansion tomorrow, and after a while, the situation in Yunwu City will be stabilized, and I will assign a house to everyone. Huang Zhong and Xu Shu readily agreed.
Li Mu looked at Xu Shu and asked, "Yuan Zhi, you came to Yunwu City relatively early, what do you know about Yunwu City?" ”
Xu Shu groaned: "Lord, there are four major families in this Yunwu City, namely Duan Chang of the Duan family, Li Han of the Li family, Lin Zan of the Lin family, and Yang Qian of the Yang family. This family, the Li family and the Yang family have a very bad reputation, but the Lin family is okay. Lord, Yunwu City is afraid that the dark tide is surging, if we make a move, we must be ruthless. ”
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that these four major families won't raise their heads, if they raise their heads, it will be a good thing." If the Lin family can really use it, it will also be a good thing, we will support the Lin family against the other three families. Xu Shu and Zhang Ji glanced at each other and said hello.
Just when everyone was chatting hotly, a maidservant girl came to report that the meal was ready, and Li Mu ordered the meal to be opened. I saw that Niu Er and his wife, as well as a group of female dependents, were about to get up and leave. Li Mu said with a smile: "Sit down, we are all from other places, so we are naturally a family." Today, we don't have to worry about those red tapes, let's have a lively reunion dinner together. Then the crowd hesitated to sit down again. Naturally, the meal was lively and extraordinary.
After eating, the women and children went to their respective hospitals to rest. Li Mu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Xu Huang, Xu Shu, Zhang Ji, Chen Dao, Zhao Feng, Pei Yuanshao, Zhang Cheng, and Niu Er also stayed to drink and drink in the mountains, and they did not go to rest until the time of the child.
Before the next hour, Li Mu took Zhao Yun and Xu Shu to the Taishou Mansion. Chen Yi took a few gongcao to wait outside the Taishou Mansion, and invited Li Mu and his party into the Taishou Mansion. The people sat down in order. Li Mu glanced around and asked, "Chen Juncheng, have all the people arrived?" ”
Chen Yi glanced around and replied: "Lord Hui, Gong Cao Shi Duan Yuan, Hu Cao Shi Li Liang, Wei Cao Shi Yang Zhen have not arrived. ”
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "It seems that the legs and feet of these three adults are not very convenient, so let's wait." ”
Li Mu and his entourage waited for more than half an hour, only to see Duan Yuan, Li Liang, and Yang Zhen walk in slowly, and they didn't salute Li Mu, and sat down when they found their place.
Li Mu chuckled lightly and shouted, "Where are Dian Wei, Chen Dao, and Pei Yuanshao?" The three of Dian Wei responded in unison: "The end will be!" ”
Li Mu said with a low smile: "It seems that these three adults must have inconvenient muscles and bones, and each of them will be punished with twenty rods, so they must loosen their muscles and bones well." ”
Dian Wei and the three of them rushed over like hungry tigers to eat, lifted up Duan Yuan and the three of them and threw them to the ground, picked up the big staff on the side, and couldn't help but say something, and began to greet Duan Yuan and the three of them on the buttocks. At first, you could still hear the screams of the three people, but there was no sound in the back. Chen Yi and everyone in the audience, Cao Shi, were all trembling and sweating.
Li Mu glanced at Duan Yuan and the three of them and said, "Throw these three wastes on the street outside the door." Dian Wei and the three of them threw Duan Yuan and the three of them out of the door like catching chickens.
Li Mu glanced at Chen Yi and the others, and said with a smile: "Everyone, I don't know if I'm doing this, right?" ”
Chen Yi and the others knelt on the ground with their hands, touched the ground with their foreheads, and replied in a trembling voice: "My lord did the right thing!" The lower officials obey the teachings of adults! ”
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "That's good, sit up straight." When Chen Yi and the others heard this, they instantly sat up straight.
Li Mu Zhengse said: "This official decided to appoint Xu Shu as the main bookkeeper and concurrently serve as the history of Gong Cao, and appoint Zhang as both the history of Hu Cao and the history of Wei Cao. I don't know if Chen Juncheng and all the adults here have anything to say. ”
Chen Yi and the others replied in unison: "My lord is wise! ”
Li Mu smiled and said, "Well, that's good." That's it for today, I hope you do it yourself. Chen Juncheng took his official to the school camp in Jincheng County. ”
Chen Yi hurriedly got up and took Li Mu and his party to the camp in Jincheng County. When Li Mu and his party came to the school field, the four soldiers at the gate of the camp gathered together to talk about the mountain, the four soldiers naturally didn't know Li Mu, they saw Chen Yi, and asked Chen Yi to go over to chat with a smile. Li Mu asked Chen Yi to write down the names of the soldiers. Li Mu and his entourage entered the school field, only to see the soldiers in the school field gathered in twos and threes, either to talk about the mountains, or to drink and have fun.
Li Mu and his entourage came to Dianjiangtai, and Li Mu said in a deep voice: "Wenyuan, beat the drum!" Zhang Liao replied loudly: "Yes!" ”
It wasn't until the three-way drum stopped, that the soldiers in the school yard lined up to stand in front of the point general's platform, Li Mu glanced around, and saw that the queue of the team under the stage was chaotic and the military appearance was not in order. Li Mu looked at Chen Yi and asked, "Jincheng County School Camp, how many lieutenants are there?" What is your name? ”
Chen Yi hurriedly replied: "Lord Huiyu, there are two lieutenants, their names are Duan Long and Li Biao. ”
Li Mu shouted in a deep voice: "Duanlong, where is Li Biao?" Li Muyi shouted three times in a row, but no one answered. Finally, a soldier came out of the queue and said that Duan Long and Li Biao were drinking in the big tent.
Li Mu shouted in a deep voice: "Dian Wei and Xu Huang listen to the order, you two quickly go and bring Duan Long and Li Biao over." Dian Wei and Xu Huang replied in unison: "The last general will be ordered!" ”
In less than a quarter of an hour, Dian Wei dragged Duan Long and Xu Huang dragged Li Biao to the front of the point. I saw that Duan Long and Li Biao were drunk in a daze, and they couldn't stand steadily. Li Mu shouted in a deep voice: "Wake up with water!" ”
It's been more than February now, it's cold, two buckets of cold water were splashed over, Duan Long and Li Biao woke up immediately, struggling and scolding at the same time.
Li Mu shouted in a deep voice: "Duan Long and Li Biao, as the captains of the imperial court, take the lead in drinking and having fun, ignoring military rules and regulations. The two of you are not strict, which has caused our Han army to have loose military discipline and untidy military appearance. Insult my Han military might. If you don't kill the two of you, it's not enough to be the heart of the army! ”
As soon as Li Mu's voice fell, Duan Long and Li Biao shouted, his father is Duan Chang, and his father is Li Han.
Li Mu shouted in a deep voice: "Cut! ”
As soon as Li Mu's words fell, Dian Wei and Xu Huang raised the weapons in their hands and swung them down. I saw that two heads rose to the sky, and the entire school field was silent.
Li Mu said in a deep voice: "Chen Juncheng, bring the four soldiers at the gate of the camp just now. ”
In an instant, the four soldiers were escorted to the point general's platform, and the four of them were already soulless, kneeling on the ground, begging for mercy, and their whole bodies trembled like chaff.
Li Mu shouted in a deep voice: "Dian Wei, Xu Huang, Chen Dao, and Pei Yuanshao listened to the order and punished these four people with forty rods, and life and death are not calculated. ”
The four of Dian Wei received the order and beat the four soldiers violently, and the four soldiers howled a few times, and they died and could not die again.
The soldiers in the school yard watched the heads of the two lieutenants fall to the ground, and watched the four soldiers being beaten to death, they were on the verge of collapse. I saw that for a moment, the soldiers in the school yard fell to the ground, shouting heartbreakingly, the general spares his life!
Li Mu glanced around, and shouted in a deep voice: "Stand up, just drum, if there is no longer the appearance of a Han soldier, I will let each of you not get out of this school field." ”
After a drum beating, the soldiers marched and assembled. Li Mu glanced around and nodded, not bad! Li Mu said loudly: "Soldiers, you can't be without generals in the army for a day, generals are the soul of the army." I am Li Mu and Li Dingguo, a native of Wuwei County, Liangzhou, and I am the captain of the Qiang Protector appointed by the imperial court, and the Taishou of Jincheng County. From now on, you will be all my soldiers. ”
Han Junshan shouted: "Swear to follow the general!" ”
Li Mu said loudly: "The general has decided to appoint Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Xu Huang, and Chen Zhi as the commanders of the department, Zhao Feng, Pei Yuanshao, and Zhang Cheng as the captains of the cavalry, Zhao Feng as Chen to the account, Pei Yuanshao as Huang Zhong, and Zhang Cheng as Xu Huang. I wish you and the other nine people to work together to lead the Han army of our Jincheng County. ”
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Xu Huang, Chen Dao, Zhao Feng, Pei Yuanshao, and Zhang Cheng came to Li Mu, touched the ground on one knee, clasped their fists and saluted, and shouted loudly: "The last general will obey the order of the lord!" ”
Li Mu nodded, and said with a smile: "Everyone, please get up, there are nine of you in command of the Han army of Jincheng County." On another day, the soldiers of our Jincheng County will surely be famous all over the world. ”
Li Mu glanced around and shouted in a deep voice: "From tomorrow, regardless of rain or rain, the army will assemble on time and step up drills. As a soldier, abide by military regulations and military laws, and those who dare to violate military regulations and military laws in the army will be severely punished! From today onwards, we will eliminate the old and weak, streamline the army, and reorganize our armaments! ”
Han Junshan shouted: "Obey the general's orders!" ”
Subsequently, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Huang Zhong got off the stage and went to train and assess the soldiers.
Li Mu looked at the soldiers under the general's stage, and said in his heart: These soldiers can be used, and if they are trained, they will succeed one day!
