Section 22 Foolish and Shrewd Things (1)
Stepping out or escaping from Li Jiao's tent, which was full of women's smell, and then walking out of the camp of the boy camp, a slight northwest wind blew from the side, bringing a hint of early winter coolness, Luo felt that his brain was clearer, and he suddenly felt that his image was a little embarrassed.
It would be a lie to say that she was not moved by Li Ji's proposal, and Ge Rina is not a shameless ugly girl, but a mixed-race beautiful chick with a quiet personality, and the old philosopher said very clearly, eating color is also, this is human nature. Lao Luo never thought of himself as Megumi Yanagishita, who was currently not good at beauty, on the contrary, the bloodline he inherited from his parents, no matter which one of them, was attached to the prayer of longing for many sons and blessings.
In the former mercenary team, it was not uncommon for a bunch of combat partners to sit together and brag about starting a football team or a baseball team, and Luo once boasted like a Mongol that he wanted to raise a group of foals.
But...... In Hereafter...... In the East, really...... It is difficult to realize such a wish, in this time and space, without the rules of later generations, it can even be said that Luo's words can become law, and the only thing that can limit Luo is the concept that he inherited from later generations.
But this is not the mainstream concept of this time and space, even if the so-called history books record that the Romans took the lead in advocating monogamy, Luo someone saw the gorgeous grand palace in Constantinople with his own eyes, if it wasn't for the large number of women and many children, why did he build such a large palace?
In the same era, the reason why the descendants of the Anxi Army who were exiled in Central Asia did not become extinct was that their ancestors married several women in order to reproduce, including Luo's quasi-father-in-law, Li Nie, who had more than one woman.
So for Lao Luo, this is an era without restraint, so that he has a loose wild horse indulgence, if it were not for his previous education and military experience, it would be difficult for him to maintain self-restraint for nearly three years.
Now, the most difficult journey of 10,000 miles has come to an end, and while the mental pressure has subsided, how can he not let his heart beat when he hears Li Ji's inquiry that makes it difficult for him to choose?
It's just that the heart is one thing, and the action is another.
It's not that Lao Luo wants to pretend to be a saint, but he knows better than anyone else about the concept of emotion and family - it may be simple to conquer how many women, but building a stable family is not a simple matter.
He is a strict and self-disciplined soldier who longs for many children to carry on his ambitions, not a playboy who likes to look for flowers and willows. Although he wanted to be a seeder, he would never allow himself to become a liquid ejector.
When the thoughts in his head were messed up, Lao Luo heard Alki's words beside him, "General, General Li and General Wei Mu are waiting for you in front......"
"Hmm......" Lao Luo responded casually, temporarily letting go of the clutter in his heart, the business in front of him is always more important than his own private affairs.
Private matters are difficult to make decisions and can be put on hold, but official matters cannot be delayed.
Rubbing his somewhat stiff face with his hands, Lao Luo eased his emotions and walked quickly towards his military tent.
Before this, Li Deming and his father-in-law Wei Mu Yihei could have time to stand in the distance and watch the scenery, which was allowed by Luo Kaixian.
In fact, the moment he arrived in Lingzhou, Lao Luo did not restrict Li Deming's scope of activities anymore, in his eyes, except for some things that must be kept secret, letting the leader of the party people see the general situation of his own team, it may have an unexpected result.
The result of the change of people's hearts may be greed and snooping, but it is more likely to be admiration and recognition.
In Lao Luo's opinion, it is most likely the latter.
People like Li Deming are the most realistic and wise, not stubborn and tenacious madmen, nor are they reckless men with vain martial arts, there will not be a big difference in how to choose - it must be the latter majority, Lao Luo does not dare to boast that he never makes mistakes, but it is no problem to see through Li Deming, who is only in his twenties.
The only thing that made Lao Luo hesitate was the old guy Wei Mu Yihei, this old general is the kind of old wolf who has been messing around on the grassland all his life, and he definitely doesn't simply listen to the words of others, Lao Luo really can't figure out the thoughts of the leader of the Wei Mu Department of the party. You must know that at this time, the Wei Mu Department was the most loyal clan of the Tuoba Li Department, and it was also the most powerful force within the party members, otherwise Li Jiqian would not have chosen the daughter of the leader of the Wei Mu Department for his son as a daughter-in-law in the past.
Lao Luo doesn't like political calculations, just because he doesn't understand them.
At this point, he is much more sober than when facing his own private affairs.
Of course, he understood that the most powerful means of stabilizing power in this era was marriage, and in fact there were many such examples in later generations. The daughter of the Wei Mu family can become a legitimate princess, not because of any love, but because of the strength of her mother's family. This is the custom of the grassland tribes in this era to ensure a unified right to speak, as for the previous Northern Wei Dynasty Tuoba royal family's practice of killing mothers and leaving children (1) has long been abandoned.
Is it necessary that the ideas of the leaders within the party must be unified?
Absolutely not.
Lao Luo clearly remembered the history of the Western Xia that he had read, Li Deming's son Li Yuanhao went to the surname of the Li family under the instigation of the Yeli Department, and then ordered all the subjects under his rule (including the Han people) to shave their hair and change clothes, and at the same time ordered people to create the Western Xia script, in order to express the break with the Han people, and once ruled the vast land of Hexi and even Huozhou until Bozhou (Polo City, Bole), which can be regarded as the hero of the party, but it was this Yuan Hao who killed his own uncle Wei Mu Shanxi and his biological mother Wei Mu Bayang, What happened in between?
Lao Luo couldn't guess, but he knew that even if he let Li Deming go back to Xiazhou, it would be difficult to pose any threat to himself, but it was urgent to solve the contradictions within his own clan.
"I've seen General Luo!" Wei Mu Yihei first gave Luo Kai a respectful fist salute.
Then Li Deming followed with the same demeanor, "Li Deming, I have seen the general!" ”
"Old General Wei Mu, please don't be polite, Brother Deming is polite, although you are a defeated general, you are still the head of the party department, and it is better not to have this kind of self-proclaimed in the future." After Lao Luo replied with the same courtesy, he stretched out his hand and motioned for the two of them to go to his military tent.
Neither of them is a false person, after entering the military tent and taking a seat, Li Deming expressed his true intention and mentioned that he needed to return to Xiazhou.
Lao Luo waved his hand bluntly, "Brother Deming, although you and I have a fight, we don't know each other, and I am in favor of returning to Xiazhou as soon as possible, but there are still hundreds of miles to return to Xiazhou, can the people and horses sent by Mrs. Zun to greet him protect my brother's safety?" ”
"The matter...... It is necessary to worry about the Lord, although there are only more than 1,000 people sent by the insiders, it is enough to cross the land west of the river. Li Deming hesitated on his face, but he still concealed his worries, but the title of the general still did not change.
Feeling the hesitation of the place, Lao Luo pondered for a moment, "There are previous captives of your army in this general's camp, and there are about 2,000 of them who are worried about their fathers and elders in the family, and they are eager to return to Xiazhou to visit, I wonder if they can go with the Deming brothers?" ”
"This ......" Li Deming hesitated for a moment again, and didn't care about the signal of his father-in-law Wei Mu Yihei next to him, and said directly: "It's okay, just like the master said!" ”
He had to agree, because as Luo Kaixian said, although more than 1,000 people can travel to Hexi, but that is just a general situation, if there is a change in Xiazhou, and a certain person wants to be difficult for himself, the role of his more than 1,000 people is really hard to say. But two thousand more people are not so easy to get along with, and at the moment, the elder surnamed Luo does not say that he is escorting him, but only saying that he is traveling with him, which is already a big face.
"Happy!" Luo Kai first cheered, "Brother Deming, you can rest assured, these two thousand people are just returning to Xiazhou to visit their father, and they will not interfere with your internal affairs, and even if necessary, you can use their strength." ”
"Thank you, Lord!" Li Deming was overjoyed, he had seen his original subordinates, although it was no longer under his control, but the training and equipment he had seen along the way were much better than his original, if he could use this power, the Yeli family and several other families who were ready to move would not have to worry at all, and there was no need to consider mobilizing the troops guarding Yinzhou (2) and Weizhou (3), the Song Suide army and the Dingbian army stationed not far away were not good people.
Lao Luo was not polite to him, and directly said: "The leader of these two thousand people is the king, and the Deming brothers must also know that there are things to discuss with him, and after arriving in Xiazhou, their behavior will be restrained by you, but they must return by next spring at the latest, and when they return, they will pick up some Han family members by the way, and I hope that the Deming brothers will give convenience." ”
Now that the situation is like this, what else can Li Deming say?
He has nothing to worry about, 20,000 people have surrendered, and he has been captured as the commander, the battle is not as good as the people, the strength is not as good as the people, learning from Luo Kaixian's tone, he said bluntly: "There is no omission in this matter, and the master can rest assured." ”
Lao Luo gently tapped the table with his fingers, thought for a while and said: "It is said that the internal affairs of the party are not something that an outsider can comment on at will, but Luo has a suggestion, and I hope that the Deming brothers will consider it, if there is a slight internal disagreement, it is better to do less killing, there is enough blood shed in this land......"
Li Deming and Wei Muyihei looked at each other for a while, but they didn't understand why Luo suddenly talked about such a topic, although they had doubts, they knew that there was something to follow, so they didn't say anything, just looked at Luo who was knocking on the table.
Just after a pause, Lao Luo continued, "Before winter, Lingzhou will set up a winter camp, and there will be no more fighting, after the river melts in the spring of tomorrow, Luo will build a lot of construction near Lingzhou, which requires a lot of manpower. ”
Building a new city will not be a small project in any era, and Lao Luo has been struggling with the manpower needed for next year's planning, so there is no way to do human trafficking according to the rules of this era, not to mention that he has not done it before.
Li Deming was a little pleased, being able to trade was the beginning of living in harmony in the future, he knew the power in the hands of someone Luo in front of him, he didn't look at much, but the combat power was by no means idle, although he had decided to cooperate with Luo Kaixian, he didn't want Luo to expand the scope of control.
"Good! Just as the Lord said! "It's enough to kill a political opponent, it's already a mercy to sell the other party's family, and maybe you can get something necessary, so why not? Of course, Li Deming agreed very happily.
——————————————————————————
(1) Killing the mother and leaving the son, the founder of the Northern Wei regime, the emperor of the Xianbei Tuoba tribe, Tuoba Jue, after learning from the Han people to establish the dynasty, ruthlessly set a rule - the death of the son and the mother, the purpose is to prevent the emperor from being young and his mother from interfering in the regime. It is said that this precedent came from the Western Han Dynasty, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ruthlessly killed the young and beautiful Liu Fuling's biological mother, Mrs. Gouyi, in order to make the young Liu Fuling the crown prince. This method is actually very stupid, after the Daowu Emperor Tuoba Jue formulated and implemented this rule, the emperors of the Northern Wei Dynasty were troubled by this ancestral system, and finally the Northern Wei Tuoba regime also perished with this system.
(2) Yinzhou, there are many Yinzhou in history, which refers to the range of rice fat in Shaanxi, or the modern Yinzhou town, but it is difficult to do research.
(3) Weizhou, Weizhou Town, Tongxin County, modern Ningxia, was once named Anle Prefecture and Changle Prefecture in the Tang Dynasty.
