Huaibei Road, it has been many days since the last wave of autumn income in the warehouse; Everywhere there are tall stacks of wheat straw and golden drying fields, which has become a commonplace and unique scenery stretching on the Huanghuai Plain.

The carefully selected winter wheat seeds, the soil fertilizer mixed with the hoeed struvite stones, the pile of nitrate, and the bone residue and bone meal were also buried in the deep ploughed land of the cattle and horses, and they began to sleep peacefully, only to wait for the first heavy snow to come to survive the winter.

However, the peasants and laborers in most places did not survive because of this, but because of the mobilization and propaganda of the officials at all levels who had been renamed the Xingbalu Political Division, and the corresponding officials, they reinvested themselves in the upsurge of a new round of the movement to build farmland and water conservancy.

Of course, because of the relative maturity of development and the near-saturation of land utilization in Huaidong and Huaizhong, the large-scale development campaign carried out during the agricultural slack period was mainly transferred to the southern provinces near the west and the northern Huainan on the other side of the Huaishui River.

Of course, all this is not gratuitous, but is based on mandatory routine obligations, supplemented by relatively paid additional remuneration and accommodation subsidies along the way, and the establishment of a routine incentive mechanism and mobilization system.

Therefore, if you can look down on the land of Huaibei at this moment from the sky, you will find that from east to west, there are countless young and middle-aged people who have temporarily bid farewell to their wives and children, or live on collective farms, or have been temporarily away from the administrative land that is limited by their relative personal and activity range;

They all have some kind of money to earn an extra expense for their own family, and buy a few more New Year's goods and household goods; Either the observation period of the administrative area is reduced by one or two years, or the opportunity for screening and quarantine is ended early, and groups of people converge into a rushing stream on the waterways and avenues that extend in all directions.

Its organizational efficiency and the scale of mobilization are not even greater than the total number and volume of wartime personnel mobilized from the coastal states to transport and support the rear routes, as well as temporary local requisitions, for the needs of forward operations.

Under this kind of organized and cross-regional collective human flow, this Northern Expedition and Pinglu Dao War, which has been fought for more than half a month, does not seem to have the daily life standard and frequency of most people, and it has brought many changes and impacts; But in private, this indirect influence and chain reaction seems to be everywhere in their daily life.

Outside Pengcheng, Xuzhou, the soldiers and horses of Tongzhou who were full of loss met again, and they also embarked on the return journey south to Huaishui with a heavy heart. This mission, which came to envoy and ask for help, can be said to have basically failed;

It was too inopportune for him to come, because Huaizhen, where the Jiangning Revolution broke with the imperial court, now the main army is north of the Yellow River, and he is going all out to attack the remnants of the Northern Dynasty in Pinglu Road; Therefore, there was neither the strength nor the desire to accept the request for help from his former allies and his old ones.

Except for the excellent reception and placement of good food and drink, there is no other movement and feedback;

Although I eat exquisite and delicious carved hu rice every day, the chickens, ducks, fish and sheep are always changing, and four or five kinds of drinks with different degrees are enough for drinking; But when he thought of those comrades who were still suffering and persevering in the Lantianyu area, he couldn't eat at all and his heart was like burning.

As a trusted general under the account of the former Guannei Jiedu envoy, he risked the risk and infamy of betraying the imperial court this time, and crossed a number of defense areas with different affiliations to come to Huaidi, hoping to obtain the assistance and cooperation of a division and a half brigade while making a large deal with Huaizhen.

Even if there are only a minimum of three or four thousand people, with the Huai Army's outstanding reputation and consistent performance in defending the first place in field battles, it is nothing less than an exciting boost and a shot in the arm for the front line from Lantian Valley to Wuguan that they are guarding.

To this end, he has been given enough instructions and hints, such as on the basis of all that the high favor department has now done and provided, he can act in a greater scale and lower limit; It's a pity that the deal he proposed didn't work out, and the mission to ask for help has failed.

Except for the half-warehouse canned food and compressed rations that could be brought back with the ship, there was nothing else to harvest from his trip to Huaibei. The depression and despair of losing his soul are the best portrayal of his heart at the moment;

If it weren't for the fact that there were still some things to bring back and give to the comrades who were in urgent need of the front line, and even more hated the last bit of origin and relationship with Huaizhen, he even once had the intention of going to death to apologize for his crimes.

Maybe just rushing back, before dying in battle with those comrades, is the best he can do;

After all, since the imperial court suddenly announced that the lord of Huaizhen was suspected of rebellion, and he ran back to the north and openly broke with the dynasty; The series of influences and linkages brought about will inevitably affect these feudal commanders and vassals who are still stationed in the towns of the Northland.

After these days of brewing and fermentation, the confusion in the morale of the army and the rise of various trends of thought caused by this have been accompanied by all kinds of rumors and rumors, which have greatly shaken and weakened the will to fight and morale of the troops stationed in various places.

There are even tragic episodes of rabbits and foxes dying in some military ranks; In other places, there has been a clear split in the military ranks, and it has even evolved into a confrontation and confrontation with sharp contradictions.

As a result, some of the newly recruited local troops have fled and dispersed because of pessimism and disappointment and uncertainty about the future.

As the so-called trigger moves the whole body, these officers and soldiers of the Guannai Army who have to fight in front seem to be temporarily forgotten all of a sudden.

It can be said that except for the Shu army under the command of Yan Tieshan, who guarded Tongguan, for the sake of the former origin and colleagues who worked with them, they had gone around the mountains and mountains to send them several batches of more or less supplements, and there was no longer any rear supplement and support.

It can be said that if it continues like this, I am afraid that the Guannai army will be starved to death on their own duty before they are defeated by the enemy in front of them; Therefore, even if he is a high-ranking general and intends to follow the story of Zhang Zhongcheng in history, he can only let go of his hopes for the imperial court and find a way out for his subordinates.

After he arrived at Huaishui with such a full of thought and grief, he suddenly found that the merchant ship he had been riding on was gone; In its place was a sizable flotilla, and at the head of the flotilla there was even an armed water-cannon boat.

"It's...

This couldn't help but surprise him, and then he heard the person who got off the boat on the other side greeted him like a dream

"This is a little bit of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion."

"Please also ask the general not to shirk and mind."

"My lord has a word first."

"Even if the current Governor's Mansion is empty, there are no soldiers available for the time being."

"But for the sake of your loyalty, integrity, and diligence that have always been at the forefront."

"No matter what, you have to think hard. Help."

"In addition to the three thousand firecrackers on the ship and the corresponding medicines, there are also a number of rations for 10,000 people."

"In addition, these ships will not be empty on the return trip."

"If there are any worries and burdens in the army that you can't rest assured, you can send them over first."

"Don't worry."

At the same time, in the inner flower hall of the back house of Luofu, a petite and majestic figure faced the humanity who came to return.

"All of this is still within the scope of my duties."

"Just for something that might happen in the future. Lay a wedge and a back hand in advance. ”

"Even if that guy were here, he would approve of it."

。。。。。。。。。。

And in Youzhou City, which already occupied most of it, I also seemed to suddenly raise my head with a feeling.

"Silver Spear Capital, Shenwei Battalion? School festivals, Fenwuwei? Iron Reed Camp... ”

Immediately, I looked at the flags and drum sticks that had been thrown in piles on the side of the road, and I couldn't help but sigh

"So, the ones who started to fight with our army are already the private subordinates of these Pinglu generals?"

"It seems that the negotiation on the other line has failed."

At this time, a voice reminded me and introduced me.

"This is the Min Zhong Temple."

Then, I found myself standing in front of a quaint and sprawling building.

"It is the return of Tang Taizong's second expedition to Goryeo in the nineteenth year of Zhenguan, and he felt the casualties of the soldiers and specially set up a shrine to lay the ground."

"But it was not completed until the first year of Wu Zhou's long live Tongtian (696)."

During the Anshi Rebellion, it was once renamed "Shuntian Temple" for the traitor An Lushan, and it was restored to its original name after the rebellion. ”

Until the Jingfu period, the Youzhou Lu Long Army made Li Congwei renovate and build the current "Compassion Pavilion",

The pavilion is very majestic, and there is a praise of "compassion and loyalty, go to the sky to grasp". ”

"It is said that the cypress and poplar of these walkways."

"They were all transplanted when Tang Taizong conquered Goguryeo."

"I'm afraid it's not been five or six hundred years from now."

"The stele forest here is the inscription of Yu Shiji, Chu Suiliang and other famous calligraphers in the early Tang Dynasty.

"There is also the "Le Northern Order" made by Yan Zhenqing of the five dynasties of Kaiyuan, Tianbao, Qianyuan, Taixing, and Huaguang.

Listening to the introductory words around me, I was also full of sighs and thoughts wandering, watching during the period, looking at those dense god cards and names on the four walls; Of course, as far as I know, in another time and space, the Min Zhong Temple of this era has another name in later generations - Fayuan Temple;

It was because of the work "Beijing Fayuan Temple" by the famous Taiwanese troll Li Ao that I knew that there was such a place and its origin.

This book takes the big figures interspersed in historical events as the protagonists, and runs through all kinds of life and death, ghosts and gods, monks and laymen, entry and exit, official and hidden, government and opposition, family and country, monarchs and ministers, loyalty and traitor, Yixia, Chinese and foreign, strong and weak, people and me, the group, public and private, reasonable, change, going and staying, cause and effect, and helping the people through the world, etc., to name all important themes;

Therefore, in this Fayuan Temple evolved from the Min Zhong Temple, it has witnessed and converged the final fate of the trusted king who was blackened by the "Five-Year Pingliao Yuan Inspector" because of a network;

It was also used as a secret base to park the last body of Li Dazhao, a member of the original communist group, who was killed by the warlord Zhang Zuolin.

However, this small building is about to participate in and witness a new historical process in my hands.
