Sixty-six Liangzhou affairs
Ma Chao except for his bravery, there are really not many positive evaluations, or even none. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhang Ren has a sentence that has been handed down, and Liu Zhang needs to give him a positive influence. Even if you can't, you can be slightly restricted. Ma Teng doesn't have many eyes, Liu Zhang can use it very well, if he is a scheming person, Liu Zhang doesn't dare to use it at all......
"Another day, I will pay homage to Zhang Lang, and ask Zhang Lang to teach him more." Ma Teng was very happy, after all, Ma Chao worshiped Zhang Renmen, and he also voted for Liu Zhang, so he also had something to rely on, otherwise it would be a little difficult to integrate into the officials of Shu County.
Liu Zhang clapped his hands and said: "Meng Qi's courage is not inferior to Lu Bu." Now learning the method of marching and fighting, he will definitely be a general in the future. Meng Qi should study well, and he will definitely be famous in the future. "Praise, praise hard, Liu Zhang is the best at doing this. Good words don't need money, praise hard.
didn't say anything, but Ma Chao worshiped the master. The banquet officially began, and cold dishes and hot dishes were served. The aroma of a large bowl of mutton soup filled the room, and a roasted whole lamb was brought up. There is nothing else to say, this thing Liu Zhang is attentive, cumin is quite common here, Liu Zhang also got some honey to play on the mutton, and the effect of fine salt is even more delicious.
"Give Shoucheng a leg, and Ma Chao also give a leg. The other one is for Zhang Ren and Wang Si, I want ribs, and the others are divided...... "There is a lot of lamb leg meat, but it is given to these people." The rest was eaten, and Ma Tie and the others were given a share of fine meat such as ribs.
Don't think that the lamb leg meat is delicious if you have more meat, the meat is thick and it is not easy to taste even if you cut it. The meat is far less delicate than the ribs, and even the sauce is easy to taste. In later generations, the meat here was very expensive, and ordinary people were reluctant to eat it.
After a few orders, Liu Zhang specially prepared a large porcelain basin of sweets for Ma Yunlu, if it wasn't for the cold weather, Liu Zhang would get some ice cream. There's no shortage of milk, goat's milk or anything like that. Ma Teng glanced at the pastries that his subordinates specially brought to Ma Yunlu, but he didn't say much.
But Wang Sike on the side doesn't think so? Could it be that the lord has taken a fancy to that Ma Yunlu? It doesn't seem to be going well, right? I knew that I had brought my daughter here, how much contact with Liu Zhang? Xiliang women are not as graceful as Central Plains women, and they don't feel shy about seeing people.
Ma Teng, Ma Chao has eaten this kind of well-cooked delicacy? To be honest, don't talk about them, even Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and they haven't enjoyed it. Food knows no borders, and even these heroes can't help it when faced with real food.
To be honest, the food in this era is really not delicious, so those people are very interested in those low-alcohol alcohols. Delicious sweets, spicy flavors, these are flavors that are hard to refuse. Women like sweet, men like heavy tastes, especially men on the border, the taste is even heavier.
That Ma Chao is not very old, and the leg of mutton is almost gone? After a few mouthfuls of the porcelain basin, the mutton soup is gone? Liu Zhang's eyes glared out, the leg of mutton has more than a dozen catties, right? That's a lot of thick meat, so the horse can solve it easily? That's the amount of food you can eat like a pig......
Some of the remaining leftovers were sent to Ma Chao, and he really didn't refuse to come, and he got it all in a big gulp. The marinated meat pieces, he took a bite at a time, and he solved a dozen pieces on a plate alone. He ate twenty pounds of meat alone? That's it, he picked up the white-flour steamed buns next to him and dipped them in sauce, and he also went to more than a dozen of them with mutton soup. Suddenly, Liu Zhang was worried that he didn't have enough things to prepare, and this Ma Chao wouldn't be poor in his industry in Wuwei, right?
glanced back at Ma Xiu and Ma Tie behind him, but Ma Yunlu didn't eat much. Fortunately, these people are still relatively gentle. Suddenly, there was a sound of plates, and Liu Zhang realized that there was an even more terrible thing hidden under the corner of his eyes, Ma Teng, this guy was actually more hateful than Ma Chao......
A table of empty dishes and bowls, gnawed clean leg bones tossed aside. The basket for steamed buns has been empty for a while? More food seems to have been eaten by Ma Teng? Liu Zhang couldn't help but want to cover his heart, his food was carefully prepared, but he didn't finish it all day, how could he not feel distressed? These people are all animals, huh? It's not easy to prepare a little food by yourself, these people ...... one by one
It wasn't until everyone was gone in the end that Liu Zhang felt better. I don't have many people, if I have more people in the future, so many people to eat, what should I do? told them to come to the meeting tomorrow, Liu Zhang was going to write some plans for tomorrow in the evening, and then took Ma Chao to attack Han Sui. At that time, the entire Liangzhou was left to Ma Teng to evaluate, and he took Ma Chao back to Hanzhong.
Thinking a little too much, I feel a little tired. The window opened a crack and made a charcoal fire before Liu Zhang went to rest. The night was very deep and heavy, and when I woke up in the morning, there was a smell of charcoal fire in the house, although it was not very strong, but it was still a little dizzy......
The next morning, after dinner, all Liu Zhang's subordinates arrived. After everyone saluted, Liu Zhang said: "There are too many forces in Xiliang, and the biggest one is Han Sui." I'm going to send troops to attack, and Shoucheng is responsible for dealing with some small forces. This Xiliang doesn't need a second voice, if he is not satisfied, he will all be arrested and sent to Hanzhong. When the time comes, after we occupy Jincheng, I will bring grain and a lot of supplies from Hanzhong, and when the time comes, after stabilizing Xiliang, this will be the place where the sergeants are trained. Liu Zhang roughly said what he thought......
Ma Teng immediately said: "Lord, then Han Sui's power is not inferior to me, how can I win in one battle?" "Ma Teng knows Han Sui's strength, it is definitely not lower than himself, how can the lord quickly attack Han Sui in such a situation?
Liu Zhang waved his hand and asked, "Is there a way for Yan Pu?" "It seems that after having a strategist, Liu Zhang also likes to ask Yuan Fang, what do you think?
Yan Pu thought for a moment and said, "My lord, I don't know much about Han Sui, and I don't know much about Jincheng. However, if our army presses the border, then Han Sui will inevitably be unable to resist, and he will either surrender to Cheng or defend the city. If we defend the city, we can attack it......" At this moment, Liu Zhang's strength is very strong, and Liu Zhang is not short of food and grass, so it is really not a problem to deal with Han Sui.
Liu Zhang nodded and said: "It's enough for me to take Ma Chao and Zhang Ren with me, Ma Chao will go with me to defeat Han Sui, so that I can go to the court to get a lieutenant for him." Presumably, Li Dao is still very interested in Han Sui. "The captains of the imperial court are not the same as those of the locality. After all, formal canonization is much more powerful than local canonization.
"Well, Mr. Wang Si can collect Han Sui's news and send it over. For the time being, this is the case. Let's talk about other things, I'm going to build a cement factory here, a wool washing factory. At that time, there will be a lot of people, the way of wages and the conditions for building a factory, and I will write to Wang Si when the time comes. As for Shoucheng, when the time comes, you go to the Xiongnu to collect wool, and when the time comes, I will give you a layer of profit after the wool factory is built. "Only Yan Pu knew that the factory opened by Liu Zhang was more profitable, but Wang Si knew it instinctively. Ma Teng is completely unclear......
"Yes. But can the lord's wool be used? It was rotten and smelly, and it was easy to spoil it when you put it in your clothes. "That thing is also a discarded thing in the Huns, and it is not worth anything at all. Wang Si still needs to inquire about Han Sui's news.
Liu Zhang stretched out his hand and said, "You don't understand, I have a way to remove the smell and use him to make clothes." You just have to go to the Huns to collect it, we have a lot of salt, you can go and exchange it for cattle and sheep, everything the Huns have, you can eat, you can exchange everything that can be used. "Liu Zhang is the owner who dares to sell anything except steel, of course, the better the thing, the more expensive it is.
After thinking for a while, Liu Zhang said: "There is a kind of grass in the Western Regions, which is a purple flower, do you know?" "Liu Zhang is talking about alfalfa grass, which is not only good for livestock, but also good for soil fertility.
Ma Teng thought for a moment and said, "Is it that kind of flower that has purple leaves?" But the weeds below make no difference? "He's seen this thing, and those merchants from the Western Regions like to feed their animals the most.
Liu Zhang nodded and said: "You can also buy this kind of grass with seeds, anyway, you can spread it all over the pasture and plant this grass." When the time comes, I can spend money to buy it, and I can plant more anyway. There are also many kinds of trees in the place where the road is in the wind and sand, and I will reward 100 yuan for planting a living tree, which can be done, but someone needs to witness it, and Wang Si will find a reliable person. "The desertification of Xiliang is to pay attention to, the thieves here are also very serious, and these things need to be done step by step.
Wang Si was puzzled: "I can think of the kind of grass planted by the lord as raising horses and grazing." But what is the purpose of planting trees? "It's all about spending money but there's no profit, right?
Liu Zhang rubbed his head and said: "Trees can prevent the land from desertification, if you don't work hard now, Xiliang will be a desert in a hundred years." What about the Hereafter? Besides, Xiliang is ready to be vigorously developed, and this must be a place for us to train our troops. When the time comes, we will form a cavalry and sweep the world......" Liu Zhang said this, which is to tell Ma Teng, I am ready to tidy up Xiliang, you have to work hard, I am very optimistic about you......
"Lord...... It's really a visionary. "Wang Si doesn't know what to say, planting trees is for a hundred years later. It doesn't make sense to say that. For future generations, there is no country that pays more attention to future generations than the country of China. It is a country that focuses on inheritance, and it is possible to give up everything for the sake of future generations.
Liu Zhang's reason, everyone here was moved, especially Wang Si and Ma Teng, who are the heads of the family are more cautious, they deeply know how difficult it is to inherit a family, and the slightest accident may wipe out the family at home.
