Chapter 107: Wei Qinghuo Goes to Illness (I)
The restaurant's eyes lit up when he saw Zhao Wuming and Sun Buer in brocade robes, and his face almost smiled like a flower: "Two guest officers, please." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Zhao Wuming was stunned, no matter what kind of clothes he was wearing before, as long as he walked in the city. It's like there are two big characters on the top of his head, and he will salute himself whenever he meets the people. But now that the city has been upgraded to the third level of the city, it seems that those two words have been hidden.
If you think about it carefully, it is also the same reason, the city is huge and there are many people. How is it possible, everyone knows what the city lord looks like.
Under the guidance of Xiao Er, the two walked into the restaurant and sat down, the aroma of wine and food filled the air, and a hint of hunger hit. Zhao Wuming glanced at Xiao Er: "Two jars of good wine, and the best five dishes in your restaurant."
"Okay, guest officer, please wait a moment." Xiao Er hurriedly agreed when he heard the order, turned around and walked to the back.
Watching Xiao Er walk away, Zhao Wuming turned his head to look at Sun Bu'er who was standing behind him: "You have been busy for most of the day, you must not have eaten yet, it is better to sit down and wait for a meal together."
"Thank you, Lord". Sun Buji wanted to refuse, but there was a feeling of hunger in his belly. After a slight hesitation, he sat down on Zhao Wuming's right side.
This place was originally close to the right window, and Zhao Wuming looked out of the window, only to see a sea of people and flowers. It is different from the small city of the past.
Sun Buji saw Zhao Wuming looking outside the restaurant, lifted the kettle and got two bowls of hot tea into the bowls of the two, and then handed one bowl to Zhao Wuming.
Zhao Wuming took it casually, and at this time, there was a burst of discussion from the direction of several tables next to him. Take a sip of tea and listen.
"I heard that the city lord sent a general to lead a large army to conquer Donghu, and the momentum along the way was like a bamboo, and the Donghu people who fought were holding their heads and running away."
"No, how did the little brother hear that he was the city lord. Sent General Zhou Bo and his son to lead a large army to attack the Xiongnu, and the Huns who fought were holding their heads and running away".
"No, no, no, you're not right. I listened to my neighbor, the husband of his brother's niece, who was a soldier of the general in the army. He told me that it was the Donghu and the Xiongnu who were fighting. The city lord let the general go on the expedition just to pick up the bargain."
"Go, go, don't mess around. You dead fatty, haven't you heard the rumors in the city? The Xiongnu and Donghu are in the central grasslands, and there are more than one million troops in total. āć
A middle-aged strong man scratched his head embarrassedly and explained to several companions: "That's true, my neighbor told me." He said that it was equivalent to two strong men fighting in front, and the city lord asked the general to knock on the stuffy stick."
"Stuffy? You think those Donghu and Huns are as stupid as you. Knocking on the stuffy stick is such a big move, others will not know". A thin middle-aged man asked nonchalantly, and casually took a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it in his mouth and ate it with relish.
The middle-aged strong man was speechless, and then smiled: "Donghu, Xiongnu and our Hancheng." These three parties add up to more than 2 million soldiers, and it is impossible for others not to know about such a big movement."
"Drinking, drinking, whether it is fighting Donghu or fighting the Huns. As long as our Seoul can become stronger and more prosperous, it will be enough." A middle-aged man hurriedly relieved the siege, and then raised a bowl of wine.
A middle-aged man who was slightly older than the three of them sighed as he listened to their conversation: "Hey."
The three of them looked at the voice, frowned one by one, and hurriedly asked.
"What kind of sigh?".
"I and other refugees finally have a place to live, and we should be happy."
"The army of my city is like a bamboo outside, which means that my Seoul is now impregnable, but why are you sighing now, brother?"
"As you don't know, I've heard that the soldiers of the city have fought a lot before. They all disguised themselves as Donghu people, as well as Huns. Every time I think about this, I feel bad. This hiding gives people a sense of grievance and insecurity."
Zhao Wuming listened to these words and put down the tea bowl in his hand thoughtfully. looked out the window again, but there was an inexplicable sense of guilt.
"Lord Father". Sun Buji saw Zhao Wuming looking out the window, his expression gradually lowered, and he wanted to say something but couldn't speak.
Listening to the voice, Zhao Wuming looked at Sun Buer: "Every time the army goes out of the city to fight, the soldiers are disguised as Donghu people or Huns. Lone thought this was the most proud handwriting, but he didn't want to hurt the people's hearts. No wonder the military advisor proposed to replace the flag of our Seoul after the destruction of Donghu."
"Why did the lord have such feelings, in fact, it was not that he didn't change it before, but that he couldn't. Everyone in the city knew about it, so they didn't blame the lord in the slightest." Sun Buer comforted Zhao Wuming.
Behind Zhao Wuming was a table of wine and food, and two middle-aged men and a teenager were seated. When the three of them heard this, they looked at each other. The middle-aged man sitting on the main seat picked up a bowl of wine, stood up and smiled at Zhao Wuming and Sun Buji: "The two drinks and dishes at the front table have not yet come up, if you don't dislike the simplicity of the wine and food we have here, can you come over and drink a few bottles of wine."
The two of them were stunned when they heard the voice coming from behind them, Sun Buer hurriedly looked over, and then looked at Zhao Wuming with an inquiring eye. Zhao Wuming nodded slightly, and the two got up and walked to the back.
The person standing on the main seat pointed to the vacant seat on the east side of the wine table, and Zhao Wuming sat down directly without shirking it. The person in the main seat smiled, lifted the wine jug, poured an empty wine bottle and handed it to Zhao Wuming.
The three of them saw Sun Buji consciously standing behind Zhao Wuming, looked at each other, and seemed to have established his identity in their hearts: "I heard that the Han army is going out like a bamboo, and the Donghu soldiers and horses have been defeated. But I don't know when Seoul will be able to completely occupy the central steppe and gain a firm foothold in this world."
"The main force of Donghu is at war with Yan, and the main force of the Xiongnu is busy pacifying Ding Ling. At this time, if our Seoul can wipe out the Xiongnu army in the central steppe in one fell swoop, we can take advantage of the opportunity to gain a foothold on the central steppe." Zhao Wuming replied without thinking, Seoul is still a relatively closed area. There are almost no outsiders except for the people of the city, so there is no need to worry about leaking secrets.
The middle-aged man sat down again, and the young man asked: "As far as we know, the strength of the Han army is the end of the Xiongnu and Donghu, and they divided their troops to attack the grain road. In the face of a huge Xiongnu army, how will they be defeated".
"The cut off of the grain road hit morale, prompting the Huns to divide their troops to run back and forth, and our army was moving according to the opportunity. After the two-way attack with the power of a great victory, the army will move east to join the general, and the general situation will be decided." Zhao Wuming didn't think much about it, just subconsciously replied.
The three of them glanced at each other and nodded secretly, and at the same time stood up and bowed to Zhao Wuming: "Wei Qing, Huo Quai, and Yu Wenkai see the city lord." May the lord of the city be honored as the lord and serve the dogs and horses."
"Quasi, wait for me to have eaten wine and food, and go back to the city lord's mansion to discuss in detail." A hint of surprise spreads in my heart, but it makes sense to think about it. After all, the three of them had already made up their minds to become officials, and these were just jokes in advance. Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Wuming's mouth.
"No". The three of them sat down again, and at this time, Xiao Er brought the wine and food ordered by Zhao Wuming. Seeing that the two of them had changed the wine table, they immediately brought the wine and food.
Zhao Wuming looked at Zhao Wuming, who was standing behind him, and instructed Xiao Er: "I'm making a few dishes and a jar of wine, and put them on the wine table where we just sit."
"Okay, please wait, officer." Xiao Er hurriedly agreed, and then quickly walked to the back.
Zhao Wuming looked at Sun Buer, and then looked at the wine table just now. Sun Buji understood, turned around and walked towards the wine table.
