I didn't say anything all night, except that someone was woken up by my physiological reaction after three poles in the morning, and in the hazy moment, I got up a little angry, punched and kicked me and bit me a few times, and continued to sleep with my head in my arms.

When I was having breakfast, I received a message from Huaidi again.

But it was a follow-up plan for food for prisoners that was privately agreed, and it had already come to an end; Now the ships that have passed through the upper reaches of the Huai River have successively received tens of thousands of yellow-skinned, ragged prisoners of the Northern Army in Suzhou.

And paid the price of about one to two stones of variegated rice and wheat per person, or three hundred catties of dried potatoes and sorghum, depending on the health of the body.

At present, the number of about 47,000 people has been accumulated, and after being distributed to the mine sites in various places, they have provided a steady stream of new blood and new force for all kinds of heavy engineering labor.

And the one who has always been responsible for handing over and providing transportation means is my sister Mrs. Chen's cousin, who is already a veteran of the Wulu Shuai Division, and can be regarded as an old acquaintance in a sense.

Of course, this is also a matter of mutual benefit for both parties who negotiate privately. Such a large number of captives, in the hands of the troops left behind in the Northland, has always been a huge hidden danger and trouble, and even according to the minimum standard of not starving to death, a huge amount of daily supplies will be consumed and occupied.

But you can't just kill everything casually, otherwise many people from the top to the bottom will not be able to do good; At this time, the supervision of these captives has become a kind of huge hot potato and chicken ribs.

Although it is possible to supervise their labor on the spot, it also needs to increase the consumption of materials, and if they kill too much, it may cause new sources of resistance and become difficult to control; In particular, when Jiangning was constantly sending troops and horses south to suppress bandits and quell the rebellion, the situation was even more tense and difficult.

At this time, someone finally thought of Huaizhen, which had a foundation and corresponding acceptance ability in the north, and had similar contacts and had a good reputation; Therefore, in the name and origin of General Manager Ning, he privately sent someone to negotiate and negotiate with my side for a short time, and then hit it off.

The soldiers and horses stationed in Shannan Province and Dojan Province gathered captives from all over the country in batches to the mouth of the old river in Xinyang, Gwangju, and then collected boats from the local area and released them down the Huaishui River, and finally reached Wuhe County in Suzhou in Huaibei Province to go ashore; After the heads are delivered from the temporary transshipment point set up locally, the cabin is filled with the food and other supplies exchanged.

Although there are only batches of thousands of people coming at a time, the number of people has become considerable. And the errands of escort and delivery along the way to the south have also become the beauty of the garrisons in these places that need to take turns to fight; Because during a short stay in the past, these friendly soldiers were able to receive an adequate supply of three meals a day.

Although it is only the treatment of salted fish and dried rice and pickles to make soup, but the quantity is definitely enough to manage, and there is a military dry food that can be used for several days as a souvenir on the return trip, and the officers can even get a number of canned food produced in Huaidi, which can be regarded as a means of maintaining some small favors.

Under the internal coordination of the Fifth Route Recruitment Division, the grain obtained in exchange was used to compensate for the relatively tight supply of grain and grass, which constantly lost a big burden and greatly alleviated the situation and dilemma of lack of food and clothing before the winter.

Huaidi, on the other hand, with relatively abundant grain reserves, has been given more new labor that can be used as a quick expendable. Of course, in the specific transaction process, there can not be everything that comes without refusal; With the appropriate pressure and scale of people who are good at negotiation, it is not so sufficient to reflect the grain reserves of Huaidi; It is also inevitable for the other party to fully appreciate this favor and origin.

is the so-called truth of dou mien's promotion of rice hatred, there is no bottom line, too generous, and it is not good to be self-defeating if you are not careful.

As for the whereabouts of the prisoners and the related explanations, replacing the chaotic situation in the Northland with measures and culpabilities that led to the mass exodus of the prisoners in custody due to poor supervision is only the lesser of two evils.

According to the tone vaguely revealed by the other party, even the specific person who will take the blame and what will happen after his death have been prepared. And this kind of situation of privately granting and receiving it as the pursuit and intention of one's own troops is almost impossible to happen in the southeast division under the leadership of the original Ning Commander.

But now, under the pressure of the status quo and existence, it has become something natural.

Of course, there are inevitably some people who take advantage of the good and take the merits, and even directly use the people found in the capital to fill the number, but they are also young adults who can come in handy for a lot of use, so I also acquiesced to this result to some extent, but there were strict restrictions on the specific requirements.

Especially when I instructed someone to secretly say that even a woman can count, the response from the other party was even more enthusiastic.

Then when everyone had rested enough and recovered their spirits, we continued to set off north, and on the third day of our arrival in Yizhou, the mysterious creatures also met the lord of the Yuwen domain, and then it was a private space for them to get along.

After a long period of solitude, the mysterious creature still pushed the lord of the Yuwen clan who was sitting in a wheelchair, or my cheap father-in-law, came out, but there were still some red marks in the corners of his eyes, and it seemed that something had happened, such as hugging his head and crying; And it is not like a fake outpouring of true feelings.

This is also the first meeting between me and the lord of the Yuwen Domain, I didn't see one by mistake before, and then I didn't know how to negotiate and talk in a hurry, so I simply dragged it off.

Now I finally saw it and couldn't help but sigh, this feudal lord's skin-like Rao is quite good, with a thin national character face, a white beard and sideburns half a hundred, slightly upturned long eyebrows and red eyes, there is a handsome old guy style that has been accumulated over time, no wonder his dozen children are also under the inertia of high-quality genes, each of them is very upright and beautiful, and there is no ****** existence of crooked melons and cracked dates.

It's just that the pale face and the deep haggard eye sockets after a long illness have somewhat destroyed this overall sense of coordination.

They looked at each other for a moment,

"From now on, my Aluo will please."

He still took the initiative to speak, but his voice was still a little dry.

"After all, Ah Luo's vision has always been much sharper and clearer than that of me, an old man in his old age."

"In the future, together with the fate of the Yuwen family, I will entrust it to Master Hou."

"Could it be that the feudal lord just gave up on this?"

I pretended to be surprised.

"Anyway, I have something to do with my parents' orders."

"Compared to me, a bad old man who can't even discipline his children well"

He hissed with a certain self-deprecating expression.

"In the situation that he was able to resolutely go out of the domain at a young age and had nothing else to grow, he was able to make meritorious contributions to the marquis by getting up from scratch for several years, and he was a member of the court on the side of Weizhen"

"What else can't I be sure about?"

"Isn't the feudal lord worried about the future of the Yuwen clan?"

I continued to probe itatively.

"I've dealt with a lot of people."

"As the so-called authorities are obsessed with bystanders, others have been in pain in front of me,"

He pulled his skin and smiled at me.

"It's always talking about Huaizhen's ambitions and threats to invade and annex his family."

"But once you lose your power and flattery, when you calm down and think about it, you already understand a lot of things that you can't see through."

"With the strength and pattern of Qinghehou, I'm afraid that I may not be able to look down on my foundation."

"Or with this career of the Yuwen clan, it may be helpful for Huaizhen,"

"But it's just a big corner of the feet and pedals that you want."

"In this case, I want to see what kind of results and prospects can be obtained if the Yuwen family takes the initiative to follow them."

"This is also my last willfulness and determination before I die."

"So..."

He gasped slightly.

"It is impossible for Ah Luo to become the head of the Yuwen family."

"I will re-appoint a successor head of the family among her descendants, and then let Arlo take care of the affairs of the family in the name of assisting the elders."

"What did your old man say to you?"

Afterwards, I whispered to the enigmatic creature that was still in some mood.

"It looks like a third-rate family drama about Tuogu."

"You're really a dog who can't spit ivory out of his mouth."

She couldn't help but give me a blank look, but her mood became slightly uplifted.

"Just reminiscing about some of the past. And the elderly are particularly easy to get emotional and sad. ”

"Also, I just told some secrets and legends about the ancestor Yuwen Gong."

"It is said that the ancestor Yuwen Gong is also an ordinary side branch of the family of state guests, and the door is a little overshadowed by the official body and can be forbidden from the front of the police,"

"But it wasn't until I met Liang Gong, who started from the recklessness with the power of a dragon and snake, that I really began to accompany and follow him."

"And your life deeds are quite similar to the Liang Gong recorded by my family back then, and your actions are also similar."

"Therefore, with your decisiveness and skill, it is not a chance for the Yuwen family."

Well, I was speechless, is this another version of the sharp intuition and misconception of the truth that people are dying and good?

But in any case, whether it was the mysterious creature who didn't know what kind of soup he poured into this person, or this one who wanted to make a decision before his death, [In the following time, this feudal lord showed enough cooperation and trust, and took advantage of several rare opportunities to come forward in public to assist the mysterious creature to clean up the situation of the Yuwen family that was disheartened and turbulent by some people.

After all, cooperation and obedience under the coercion of swords and guns can not be compared to the inertia of ruling with the name of righteousness in hand. All that's left is to support a few more potential competitors in the name of the enigmatic creatures, and to push and squeeze each other desperately.

Of course, these resources are currently limited to the own forces on Yizhou Island, and those overseas clansmen and peripheral forces of branches that are beyond the reach of the whip for the time being have yet to be cleaned up and sorted out.

But in any case, with the exemplary role of the lord of Yuwen Domain's statement and appearance, as the division of the Yizhou princes, the matter here can also be temporarily closed to the next paragraph. (To be continued.) )
