Li Shi Zheng, after half a sound, said: "It seems that there is some truth." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"I know that you have taken in many women and children," the silver ingot gently advised, "but there is also something hateful about poor people. The people you contain may have a lot of stuff to do, so be careful. ”

"No, it won't." Li said with a stubborn face: "They are all pulled out of the sea of suffering by me......"

At this time, a young official in a green robe walked in quickly with a team of armor soldiers, and after giving a salute to the silver ingot from afar, the official said: "Today, Mrs. Li has a fine work of Beiyu by her side, and I will go to arrest him." ”

Silver Ingot knew that this person was ostensibly from the Judge Advocate General's Department, and it was likely to be someone from the Military Intelligence Department or the Internal Intelligence Department, so he stopped Li and said gently, "Please take care of yourself." ”

The soldiers quickly ran in, and after a short time they escorted out two women in their thirties and forties, who looked frightened, and the little official held a large silver weighing twenty taels in his hand, and said to the silver ingot: "They have accepted the silver, and deliberately spread some words unfavorable to me and Yusheng in front of the lady, disturbing the relationship between us, this plan is very poisonous. ”

Li looked at the two women angrily, the women lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound, and the silver ingot said helplessly: "Take it out, you can dispose of it." ”

"Most of them are escorted to hard labor, not capital crimes." The official said first, and then thanked him: "Thank you for the cooperation of the silver ingot Taiji." ”

"You're doing your part, too." The silver ingot looked at the Li family, and said, "There are such people in my mansion, and sooner or later it will be dangerous, and it is excellent for you to rule it out." ”

After the little official left, the silver ingot said to the Li family: "Look, it is really as I expected. ”

Li bit his lip and remained silent.

……

Zhao and Rong did not delay in Xiaoheihe Fort, they were rejected by Zhang Han in person, and there was no need to work hard in terms of the way He Yusheng's system operated, and he rushed back to Qingcheng three days later and reported to Xi Lingse in person.

The situation in Qingcheng is completely different from the situation in Zhao and Rong's memory, decaying, barren, sparsely populated, and there are few people to be seen on the scattered streets.

When Altan Khan was in his prime, the Tumut tribes and Mobei and other departments added up to four or five hundred thousand Dingkou, directly under the rule of Altan Khan, the western Oirat and Mobei tribes all came to Qingcheng to meet Altan Khan, and at the same time drove camel caravans to trade, Qingcheng because of the relationship between the horse market The goods are well stocked, and there are many types, those small tribes in the Western Regions, including the Tajiks, Kazakhs and other nomadic tribes, and even the caravans of the Tubo people will come, and the Oirats are now the protectors of the Tibetan tribes, Gushi Khan and Zangba Khan were fighting for control of Uszang, and the Tibetan caravans were able to reach Qingcheng, which shows how influential Qingcheng was.

Zhao and Rong remember that the streets of Qingcheng at that time were full of camel teams of different styles, the bustling crowd crowded the streets impenetrable, a team of soldiers patrolled inside and outside the city, and it was often seen that the Ming officials wearing round-necked robes and black gauze hats came with festivals, and they were ordered to come to give the Taiji officials, and the title of the governor of Acheng Taiji was awarded by the Ming court at that time.

The golden Khan palace was full of people inside and outside, the Taiji and lamas of the various ministries crowded the inside and outside of the Khan's palace, Altan Khan lived in the palace for a long time to deal with the affairs of the Tumut tribes, at that time the strength of the western Mongolia was far above the east, even if the eastern Mongolia was Zhengshuo, all the ministries had to follow the Zasak code promulgated by Baicheng, but Qingcheng was the greatest city of the Mongols......

Everything is over, Zhao and Rong only have one idea before entering the Khan Palace.

Bai Yin, Batu Taiji and the others were there, and after hearing the bad news, Xi Lingse's face became extremely ugly.

"It's a shame to be old."

Seeing Xi Lingse's face, Zhao and Rong felt irrepressible anger in their hearts, and he couldn't help but say: "But Taiji doesn't need to be afraid of them, as long as he gathers 200,000 armor soldiers, with the cavalry and archery skills and courage of the Mongols, there is no need to worry about anything at all." ”

Zhao and Rong said in an encouraging tone: "Please keep in mind the brilliance of Altan Khan, you are also his descendant." ”

Xi Lingse said weakly: "The soldiers of the merchant group have arrived in Qingcheng less than a hundred miles away, and I heard that Zhou Yao is also coming." ”

"What's so scary about that?" Zhao and Rong said: "They are only 3,000 people. ”

Many Taiji were silent, and Zhao and Rong felt bored when they saw this, and retreated after saluting.

After he left the main hall, he looked at the golden Khan Palace everywhere, and faintly seemed to hear the sound of lamentation and sorrow inside, Zhao and Rong Leng were for a while, and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm on the steps of the noble and incomparably honorable Khan Palace, and scolded: "Useless waste, so dare to call it the descendant of Genghis Khan, the noble descendant of Dayan Khan and Altan Khan!" ”

……

Everything in front of Lu Si's eyes made him feel amazing.

Everywhere is longitudinal and horizontal, a small village is hidden among the crops in the farmland, this season is a good time to grow vegetables, most of the vegetables are out, as long as you pay attention to insect control and watering, you can start harvesting after a while.

First harvested are all kinds of lentils and long beans, and then green peppers, which are exotic crops, and the grassland has also got seeds and began to plant, all kinds of vegetables, loofahs, cucumbers, eggplants, all green in the past.

Of course, this year's fighting has had a great impact on planting here, and it is clear that large areas of farmland have been abandoned and only a small amount of farmland is still being cultivated.

A trace of a person finally appeared in Lu Si's eyes.

This is a typical middle-aged man dressed as a Han person, because the noon sun is more poisonous, this person wears a straw hat, carries a hoe on his shoulder, and comes out of a small courtyard where thatch and mud are rammed into a courtyard wall, this person goes directly to the farmland and begins to hoe grass, and the gown on his body and the obvious bun under the straw hat indicate that this is a Han person.

Seeing the appearance of this man hoeing grass, Lu Si suddenly remembered his family, he had not seen such a pure Han village scene for a long time.

There are some people who come out one after another, it seems that they are all hoeing, in the southernmost part of them is a small river that meanders and flows, some people carry buckets to carry water, faintly there are dogs barking and chickens crowing, if it is not for himself to press the saber to lie here to sentry, Lu Si almost feels that he has returned to the hinterland of Datong, in a village that enjoys peace.

"Look," Lu Si was lying on his stomach with Lao Zhong, and Lao Zhong pointed to a few figures and said, "These dogs have shaved their heads and braided their hair, and their mothers are willing to be tartars." ”

Lu Si followed his finger and looked over, and sure enough, he saw that there were several people in this Han gathering place who had shaved the hair on the top of their heads, and had small braids around their heads, which was a typical Mongolian hairstyle.

Lao Zhong said again: "I heard that this place is full of White Lotus cultists, and those who are unwilling to be bullied by the Tartars have already left. ”

Lu Si nodded lightly and said indifferently: "Let's listen to the military order and act whatever he does." ”

Old Zhong Yizheng then laughed dumbly: "Okay, the rookie has finally grown up." ”

After half a month of high-intensity operations, the first regiment of lancers went all the way north from the place of the set, and successively defeated a number of northern cavalry, and finally beheaded more than 3,000 levels, this number of heads must be enough to seal the marquis during the Jiajing period, here, the heads are only used for counting, not for the purpose of rewarding merit at all, a large number of heads are sealed with lime, ready to be destroyed after the end of the war.

Lu Si also had four heads cut off by his own hands this time, and he was recorded because of his outstanding performance, if nothing else, it is estimated that at least one third-class meritorious medal will not be able to run away, which is very enviable, and he is also very satisfied with himself.

From a rookie who doesn't know anything to a veteran who doesn't take killing seriously, such a transformation is actually less than a month.

After listening to Lao Zhong's words, Lu Si spit out the grass roots in his mouth, and said hatefully: "Zhou Yao of the dog day, Lao Tzu will cut off his head sooner or later as a ball." ”

The old bell grinned: "It's better to be a pot maker at night." ”

The two laughed together, and everyone knew why the lancers were progressing, that is, because Zhou Yao almost didn't treat his subordinates as people.

After a short period of fighting, the 3,000-strong troops have lost more than 400 troops, of whom more than 100 were killed in battle, and some of the 300 were seriously injured and some had a mental breakdown.

Yes, it's a nervous breakdown.

Excessive fatigue and nervousness of the lancers are still easy to accept, after all, it is not easy to train in Li Zhuang, but fighting with one's life for a long time is beyond the tolerance of ordinary people, Zhou Yao is particularly ruthless in using people, once it is put into the battlefield, it means that it is impossible to fight one after another, and it is impossible to be withdrawn until exhaustion to squeeze out the last bit of physical energy, although there are still comrades killed and injured on the battlefield, such physical strength plus mental and physical multiple pressures, mental breakdown is also a normal thing.

Continuous fighting, physical exhaustion, and lack of water will not only damage people's health, but also constantly torture people's will and perseverance.

In Zhou Yao's words, his subordinates are pig iron, which will be beaten into useful wrought iron under constant forging, and those who can't bear the pressure can leave, and after returning to Lizhuang to adjust for a period of time, they can continue to serve as soldiers in the cavalry regiment or other teams.

Under this kind of "deception", Lu Si was mentally shaken several times, but I don't know why, when he thought about leaving, he was reluctant to leave this team no matter what.

Surrounded by arrogant and introverted and extremely proud partners, the lancer regiment, the first elite of the merchant army, this is the unanimous idea of many people, including Lu Si, this is an extremely proud group, people feel that they are fortunate to be a part of it and feel extremely proud, once they can't bear to leave, they will automatically be classified as different, no longer regarded as comrades-in-arms, Lu Si feels extremely painful when he thinks that he will be expelled from this group, it is this belief that makes him persevere, Finally became what it is now.

"When Lao Tzu goes home, I guess no one in the family will recognize ......," Lu Si said with a wry smile.
