Everyone was relieved, and their heads no longer had to go around and around, and they would faint if they went around again. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Next, Jiang Hexing talked about his plans, the first to expand the army, the second to conquer Xianbei, and the third to enrich the people. With regard to the expansion of the army, from now on, the peasants will begin to organize and train the militia, and they will all be trained in the regular army barracks, which will serve the people in peacetime and the army in wartime, and they will have to train for four months a year. Because of the shortage of labor here, the regular army will not be increased for the time being. The former division commander became a military commander, Li Xiaoquan, Ma Yuan, Ma Biao, and Wu Kui all became army commanders, and Chen Gang continued to be a division commander because he had no recruits to train. Li Xiaowu temporarily came out of the army and was fully responsible for the construction of Jilin City. Zhang Jie was appointed chief of staff, and Jiang Hexing continued to be the commander-in-chief of the army.

Regarding the conquest of Xianbei, Xianbei, like Wuhuan, is a nomadic way of life. They regard robbery and plundering of farmers as a matter of course, and there is no consideration of whether they should or should not do it, but only a matter of timing. In order to remove this threat, it is necessary to turn the Xianbei people into Han Chinese, even if the area is not suitable for farming, and to change their thinking.

The Xiongnu have not had any contradiction with Pingzhou so far, so we should not make trouble ourselves. Xianbei side by Li Xiaoquan led an army, Ma Biao led an army, Wu Kui led an army, to wait for the new recruits to train almost to the army, immediately marched, and strive to Taishan momentum, in one fell swoop.

Enriching the people is still the top priority, or the old method, farming and commerce. This year, a new task has been added, prospecting and mining. The difference between Ma Yuan's responsibility for this part is that he has to do a lot of infrastructure construction this year, such as building roads and houses, building ships and prospecting.

When everyone heard this, they didn't have any opinions, Wu Kui said: "Hewang, it would be good if you said this earlier, I was tired just now, and my brain still hurts a little." ”

Everyone laughed and began to be busy with Ma Yuan's wedding. Due to the short time, Ma Yuan got married on the third day after the meeting, although Ma Yuan was a military commander at a young age, but he did not have a house in Xianwu. The wedding was agreed to be held at Fan's house, although Ma Yuan was a little awkward, but the military situation below was urgent, so he had to obey the power.

Fan Jia happily received guests from all walks of life, and all the leading figures in the business, political, and military circles came to Fan Jia's house, and Fan Jia's family was so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths together. I will no longer be afraid of being bullied in the future, such a son-in-law is really the right one.

The ceremony still hasn't changed, the groom is in spirit, the bride is beautiful, the banquet is sumptuous and everyone is happy.

Three days later, Ma Yuan was ready to return to Anwu, and the other people who had come to the meeting left after attending the wedding. He stayed two more days and was leaving today. At the gate of Fan Jia's courtyard, there is a row of four-wheeled carriages, loaded with various dowries, dazzling and colorful. Ma Yuan packed boxes and boxes, although he was not afraid of anything, but it was not in line with his intention to show off like this. Ma Yuan saluted the farewell Fan family and others, and the carriage started with a wave of his hand.

I don't know if I am not at ease with Ma Yuan, or I have no confidence in Fan Zhen's future life, Fan Jia insisted on sending him to Anwu.

After leaving the city, the motorized convoy traveled east along the main road. The trees on both sides of the road, some of the branches of the trees emitted tender yellow sprouts, and some of the anxious already some tender green leaves rubbed and rustled in the wind. In the farmland on both sides of the road, the rice seedlings are drinking water, trying to grow tall, and the breeze blows through the rice fields, and where you can see, it is like a green ocean with waves.

Ma Yuan rode on the horse, looking at the rice fields like the sea, and did not feel relaxed, but felt anxious. He couldn't wait to beat his horse and gallop immediately, run to Anwu as soon as possible, pay close attention to building roads, build cities, and train the people's army, which can really be described as "time is tight and the task is heavy". He filtered one by one in his mind, thinking about people's livelihood, thinking about personnel arrangements, and thinking about whether he would go to Xianbei in the future. Ma Yuan was thinking wildly, and Fan Zhen laughed in the carriage next to him. He came to his senses and saw that his horses were almost in the convoy. Ma Yuan lifted the reins, pulled the horse out of the convoy, and flashed to the side. He looked at Fan Zhen, who was dressed in splendor, and said with a smile: "The weather is not very warm, won't you be cold?" Don't freeze yourself for the sake of looking good. ”

Fan Zhen pouted and said, "I haven't seen you look at it much, it's a waste of our family's silk." ”

Ma Yuan was a little embarrassed: "The silk is good, the clothes are good, the key is that the person is the best." ”

Fan Zhen turned her anger into joy, looked at Ma Yuan with concern, and said: "You are also really hard, you have to take care of everything, since Xianwu came out, I have seen that you have been frowning, and I don't know what to think?" Don't exhaust yourself, there is still more time, and it is not something that can be solved at one time, but it can be solved by taking it slowly. ”

Listening to Fan Zhen's comfort, Ma Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, I will solve it well." ”

Ma Yuan looked at the convoy and found that the cars at the back of the convoy, in addition to Fan Jia, there were also a few unfamiliar faces. It seems that he has never seen it before, Ma Yuan had doubts, said hello to Fan Zhen, turned the horse backwards, and came to Fan Jia's car.

Fan Jia was chatting with a few people in the car, and when he saw Ma Yuan coming, he hurriedly smiled and said to Ma Yuan: "Virtuous son-in-law, come here in such a hurry, what is the matter?" ”

Ma Yuan arched his hand and saluted: "Father-in-law, are you still used to this carriage?" Running such a long distance really makes you suffer. ”

Fan Jia laughed, pointed at Ma Yuan, and said, "Virtuous son-in-law, you still don't know me." We merchants have suffered less than you have been warned. There is no sin at all in this carriage, on the contrary, you look at the idyllic scenery on both sides, and the weather is neither hot nor cold, I have not been in such a good mood for a long time as today, and I can enjoy the beautiful scenery while hurrying. ”

Ma Yuan said: "As long as my father-in-law is happy, I will be relieved." ”

Saying that, Ma Yuan looked at the two Confucian scholars beside Fan Jia dressed as human: "Father-in-law, these two gentlemen are ......." I look so good-looking, and I ask my father-in-law to introduce me. ”

Fan Jia looked at the two Confucian scholars beside him and said with a smile: "Virtuous son-in-law, I see that you haven't had time to introduce you to the front yet", as he spoke, Fan Jia pointed to the old man on the right, and then said: "The gentleman here is called Xu Lang." Then he pointed to the younger one on the left and said, "This gentleman's name is Chen Peng." ”

Ma Yuan hurriedly gave a salute to the two, and the two also hurriedly returned the salute, and praised Ma Yuan as a young hero. After greeting for a while, Ma Yuan saw that the two of them talked well, but they were not like businessmen who were accomplices of Fan Jia, and they were even more suspicious.

In the end, Ma Yuan couldn't help but ask: "The two gentlemen are talented, I don't know where they are high?" ”

The old man looked at Fan Jia, then at Ma Yuandao: "We used to do some chores under Chang'an Taichang, and now we are going to follow Mr. Fan to do some business." ”

Taichang ranks first among the nine kings, although he has no power, he can be respected. Taichang has several subordinates, but I don't know what they do?

Fan Jia was puzzled when he saw Ma Yuan, and explained directly: "The two of them used to be in charge of stargazing, but now they can't get used to seeing some things in Chang'an, so I just happened to find someone who can watch stars in private, so I invited them." ”

Ma Yuan doesn't have a good impression of fortune tellers, and he doesn't have a good impression of these stars and good fortune. His face sank, and he said: "Father-in-law, if you go on a boat, I think it's better to find more skilled sailors and boatmen, after all, Haiwei is unpredictable." If you rely on the stars to measure the good fortune and evil, I'm afraid it's not very useful, right? ”

Ma Yuan didn't have a good impression of these things, and his words were a bit heavy, but the boat always relied on fortune tellers to make the decision, so can the boat run well?

Fan Jia said: "The virtuous son-in-law misunderstood, I am not very interested in fortune-telling, since the fate is fixed, what is the use of my calculation, and the opportunity to make money is wasted." I asked these two gentlemen to be stargazers for many years, and they can identify the direction by looking at the stars at night. With the help of two gentlemen at sea, wouldn't I be able to sail straight at night? ”

When Ma Yuan heard this, his eyes were bright, if he could look at the stars at night to identify the direction, wouldn't he be able to march at night.

Ma Yuan hurriedly apologized to Xu Lang and Chen Peng: "Please forgive the two gentlemen for Ma Yuan's ignorance and offending the two gentlemen, and please forgive me." ”

Xu Lang laughed and said: "General Ma is polite, but we have only been stargazing for a few years, as for the usefulness, or your father-in-law thinks it is useful, the two of us are also suspicious now." We used to look at the stars to measure good fortune and bad luck, but after looking at it for so many years, we really didn't find that the stars have anything to do with good luck and bad luck. ”

Ma Yuan saw that Xu Lang spoke bluntly, and his good impression increased greatly, so he chatted with them.

This conversation is not tight, and the two are very speculative in their conversation. Later, Xu Lang specially chatted with Ma Yuan, and Ma Yuan worshiped Xu Lang as his teacher and learned the ability to look at the stars and know the way at night. Ma Yuan was happy here, but Fan Zhen was annoyed over there, and she was still looking at the stars in the middle of the night several times, she just grabbed Ma Yuan's ears and pulled them back to the tent, which made Xu Lang laugh, but she didn't expect this majestic young general to be a person who was afraid of the inside.

Ma Yuan was studying and hurrying away, and he felt that he was passing quickly, and soon arrived in Anwu City. Li Xiaowu and Wu Kui have already left with their own teams. Fan Jia took Xu Lang and them to the riverside to see how to sail. After the horse aid was settled, a conscription order was issued as soon as possible, and the militia was recruited and trained in the camp. Because there are many preferential treatments in the army, all of them are full in less than 10 days.

Ma Yuan began the three-in-one work of military training, infrastructure construction, and civil affairs, and he was very busy.
