Chapter 500: Chasing the Commander and Rumors
'Old thing, get out of here. www.biquge.info In the roar, the old general was driven out of the Shuaifu, he glanced back at the Shuaifu, and sighed helplessly, obviously it was neatly short, but now it seemed to be a little longer, and his gray hair was messy in the wind.
Today he was marshal's mansion again, in fact, to admonish the new appointment of the festival, he said many times, the first two times the young marshal also pretended to be a corporal of Lixian, listened attentively, made him happy, who knows, it is simply a horse ear east wind, after the ear is forgotten, and the old way relapsed in two days.
No, maybe he didn't listen at all. His exhortations were never taken to heart by the young marshal, which made him very discouraged.
With a small soldier, gradually in Youzhou to become a soldier and horse envoy, the old marshal not only has a great friendship with him, but also has the grace to promote the acquaintance, and now see the old marshal foundation, step by step in the hands of the young marshal collapsed, so that he was disappointed.
However, disappointment is disappointment, that kind of thing, he will not do, even if his son has persuaded him many times, he is unwilling, looking forward to the young marshal one day will repent, but now it seems...
'Whoa, bad luck, the old thing keeps talking all day long, he thinks that he is his father's old subordinate, can he put on an elder attitude? In the marshal's mansion, after the new appointment, the Youzhou Festival made Zhang Zhifang's face full of impatience.
That is, that old thing relies on the old and sells the old, that is, the young marshal is broad-minded and tolerant, otherwise he would have been killed. There was a dog's leg on the side, and he patted the horse's fart continuously, and the other person was not angry, worried that the horse's fart would be patted by him, so he hurriedly said, "Young marshal, otherwise, let's go hunting." Winter is approaching, and now is the time to hunt. ’
'Haha, it's still the two of you who are intimate. Zhang Zhifang smiled, and the two of them even said that they were sincere, and the world could be learned, so Zhang Zhifang laughed, got up and said, "Let's go, go hunting." ’
'Out of the city, out of the city.' Zhang Zhifang took a retinue, hugged before and after, marched arrogantly and galloped on the street, without any scruples about the safety of passers-by, picked up the people and hurriedly avoided, today is lucky, no one was killed or trampled to death.
Probably because of the relationship between the frequent drills, in fact, the Shuaifu was quite depressed on the way out of the city, so he didn't bump into anyone. Zhang Zhifang rode out of the city gate, and the news of his departure from the city immediately spread.
'Brothers, the thief went out again to hunt. In the barracks, on a small platform made of wooden boxes, Zhang Defu was impassioned, "When he comes back, he will start eating embryos as usual, you." He paused and shouted, 'Can you bear it?' ’
'No, no. The crowd at the bottom was excited, and when they saw that the military heart was available, the people on the stage were even more excited, "Not to mention, he will also drink, and as soon as he finishes drinking, he will abuse us." Every day, every day, he killed his brothers. Can you bear it? ’
'No, I can't bear it anymore. There was another shouting below, and there was constant noise, and the sound spread farther and farther, and more and more people gathered.
We don't know when it will be our turn to be killed, we don't know when it will be our turn to be killed, we don't know when it will be our wife, our daughters, our children, our children, and we will be eaten by him. After a pause, Zhang Defu raised his voice and shouted, "We can't take it anymore." ’
'No, I can't! No! No! The platform was not high, it was already submerged, and everyone in the camp was furious, raising their arms and shouting constantly.
'Chase the handsome, chase the handsome, chase the handsome. I don't know when I couldn't get a voice, but I became a commander, and the crowd was like ants, gathering more and more, and finally, alarming the other generals.
'What are you doing?' With an angry reprimand, the crowd was dispersed like a wave, and the veteran, under the protection of a cadre of guards, broke through the crowd and came to the stage, he took the stage and angrily reprimanded, "Zhang Defu, you dare to incite soldiers to rebel." ’
'General Zhou, if you don't open your teeth, we can't put up with that person anymore. Someone in the audience shouted, and the crowd calmed down a little when they saw that the people of Quite Fu wanted General Zhou to come to the stage and reprimanded him angrily, but immediately some people began to incite, "Yes, we want to chase the commander, chase the commander." ’
'Have you forgotten the kindness of the old handsome?' Zhou Qi reprimanded. Speaking of Lao Shuai, everyone fell silent a little again, Zhang Zhongwu is still very popular in Youzhou, and now he is only a few months away, his bones are not cold, and everyone still remembers him.
Unless the old man comes back to life, we will be decided. Zhang Defu shouted, "The old man is as kind to us as a mountain, but if we want to fight today, we are not afraid, and we can't let the brothers die in vain." ’
Yes, we don't want to die like a dog, because the man kills and kills like a dog, and we are not his prey. ''Yes, we are not prey, and we cannot accept such a plain death. ’
Seeing that the crowd was excited, Zhou Qi could only appease all the soldiers who were killed, and they would not be allowed to die in vain. But this time, someone yelled, 'What about eating embryos, he also eats live human embryos, there are only a few people in Youzhou, my mother-in-law is pregnant, every day I worry about whether I will return home, I heard that my mother-in-law was arrested by the Jiedu envoy and ate my child. ’
'Who, stand up and speak, that's a rumor, the young marshal didn't eat the living. Zhou Qi trembled with anger, as it seems that this one has to come soon, I am afraid that today's things will be difficult. However, it didn't help for him to be angry, and the soldiers were incited again, and in all seriousness, even if there was a pension, no one wanted to be tortured and killed like this, not to mention, there was the matter of eating embryos alive.
As a result, the crowd is even more surging, and the voices of the handsome are continuous. Seeing that the situation was out of control, General Zhou had to block them at the gate of the camp, and not let the sergeants out of the camp no matter what.
'Tie up the general, wait for the commander, and we will serve General Zhou as the commander.' In the face of the veteran blocking the door, a sergeant was very embarrassed, Zhou Qi made it clear that he would not let them out, so Zhang Defu shouted.
Good way, so, everyone flocked, the veteran who was blocking the camp gate was drowned, the sergeant tied up the veteran, there were many people, and it was his own sergeant, the veteran could not resist, he was tied up, along with his guards, they were all tied up, several people guarded him, and others flocked out.
The first thing is to get the weapon, Zhang Zhifang is not a very stupid person, he also knows that he is not popular with the soldiers, but he doesn't care. However, not caring doesn't mean that he won't take precautions, and collecting weapons is part of it.
So, when he was informed from outside the city that there was an expulsion from inside the city, and he hurried back to the city, he found that the arsenal was under attack.
Zhang Zhifang is not really stupid, he also has a choice of objects, or in other words, the objects he wants to abuse after drinking are all selected by the people around him for him, and he still has some pro-soldiers, who resist those soldiers who were confiscated and attack the arsenal.
After he returned to the city, it was already late, the arsenal was captured, the rebels gathered, he hurriedly fled back to the house, his tooth general Yan Haowen was anxiously waiting for Zhang Zhifang, seeing that Zhang Zhifang was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly began to transfer troops to quell the chaos.
'You do death. Zhang Zhifang immediately dispatched troops to suppress it. The rebel soldiers and his own soldiers had a fierce battle on the long street, the rebel soldiers were defeated and scattered, and Zhang Defu fled into the house and was arrested again.
'You soldier slave, this commander treats you well. ''Phew. In the face of Zhang Zhifang's explanation, Zhang Defu only snorted, "Drag him down, I want to rectify him well." ''No. Several pro-soldiers put Zhang Defu down, and while dragging him, Zhang Defu shouted, "I'm waiting for you below, haha, tell you, with today, there will be tomorrow, I can't wait for you for too long." You be careful of the people around you, I'm not the only one who wants to kill you, haha, I'll wait for you. After speaking, he swallowed his breath, and Zhang Zhifang was so angry that he jumped even more violently, and at the same time, he felt a chill.
The incident of the Youzhou rebellion quickly spread to the Beijing Division, and Li Chen saw the report on his desk. As expected, I expected that Zhang Zhifang's position would not be long after he sat down, and sure enough, there was a riot.
The head of the handsome is Zhang Defu, but he has nothing to do with Zhang Zhifang, not surnamed Zhang, but a family. However, he failed, and as a result, he cheapened the soldiers and horses.
However, although Zhang Zhifang suppressed the rebellion, he seemed to be frightened by Zhang Defu's curse before his death, and he didn't dare to continue to serve for a long time and ran away. Or maybe he himself knows that if he is angry, it will be difficult to stay any longer, and he may be assassinated one day.
And by hunting, he took a handful of men and others, rolled up the gold and silver, and fled. The Youzhou army set up another more popular soldiers and horses, so that Zhou Qi was the queen.
He consulted with several prime ministers and decided that this Zhou Qi was a little more peaceful and should be able to be appointed. Li Chen was reluctant, he didn't have a good impression of this kind of goodness, but for now, he could only do so temporarily.
Another thing is that Zhang Zhifang was appointed as General Jingo. This is a required position, and the result of consultation with the prime minister is that Zhang Zhongwu has contributed to the imperial court, and it is more beneficial to the imperial court to give his son a little shelter and take up a vacant position.
Now, here's the problem. Originally, I received news that the envoy of Youzhou Jiedu was hoarding grain and grass, and it seemed that he was also contacting foreign races, but Zhang Zhifang ran away like this, and this guy didn't look like a person with that kind of scheming.
If you really have a heart, you should encircle your subordinates. How could this be, being driven away in embarrassment. And although he couldn't chase the handsome, he also scared Zhang Zhifang enough, everyone has a heart, why shouldn't they be so timid.
'Ma Yuanwu.... Li Chen was listening to Li Chengyu's report, and when he heard this name, he frowned for a while, this guy has to find various places to spend the rest of his life without appointment, and he also ran out to stir up the wind and rain.
'There is intelligence, this eunuch haunts the three towns of Hebei. Li Chengyu said, "He has a close relationship with Wang Shaoding, but we can't know what he has to do with Wang Yuankui's illness." ’
Wang Yuankui's health was originally good, but he suddenly fell ill, which made people very puzzled, although it is not ruled out that he has any congenital diseases, but it is better to believe that the probability is man-made.
'What about the prairie?' ''It's not clear. Li Chengyu said, "Relying on the caravan alone is too limited, and I plan to make preparations for both." ’
'What preparation?' ''Horse thieves and moles. Li Chengyu went to the grassland this time, and met many horse thieves, although those horse thieves couldn't help them, the caravan had to be strong, they had crossbow arrows, and a large number of bows and arrows. Make those horse thieves like rats pulling turtles, I don't know how to start.
This gave Li Chengyu an idea, maybe he could set up his own horse thieves on the grassland, use the horse thieves to cultivate force, and in the future, he could become a Tang cavalry. You can also use horse thieves to constantly inquire about news, and if you want to say that the people who are most familiar with the grassland, it is none other than these horse thieves.
In addition, it is to buy a tribal traitor. But this is more troublesome, and I don't know if these people are reliable. At present, it is planned that there are many foreign races living in the Tang Dynasty, and some people will be selected from them, and after training and brainwashing, they will be sent to the grassland as spies.
Li Chen thought about it and decided to implement the second point, which can be used as a supplement to the brocade clothes, 'The horse thieves can be contacted, and we can pretend to be merchants who sell stolen goods and contact them.' Train your own horse thief, forget it. ’
First of all, these horse thieves are not necessarily very familiar with the grassland. Don't look at the prairie horse thieves, many of them are from the tribes in that area, dressed up by themselves. What they are familiar with is just that place.
Secondly, he will be a horse thief, mostly unrestrained, undisciplined, greedy, murderous, and has few good things. If you really want to recruit them as soldiers, it is better to recruit them from some steppe tribes, anyway, this is also the practice of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Chengyu reported a few more things, and Li Chen began to make a short time, "You are not young anymore, do you have a fancy object, uncle will help you be a matchmaker." ’
Li Chengyu shook his head, "Trouble, I'm doing very happily now, and I don't want to get married." Men in the Tang Dynasty seem to be quite late to get married. Maybe it's because you have to raise a double dowry, or you have to start a business before you start a family, and the result is that the age of marriage is not too early.
Women too, originally Li Chen wanted to strictly stipulate the age of marriage for women. Like that kind of teenage girl, who still has cardamom in the kingdom in the next life, she is still a child, and she can't think that she can get married because of the menstrual incident.
Marriage too early, marriage too late, or, more correctly, birth too early, birth too late, is not good for pregnant women, and it is not good for giving birth to a child. According to Li Chen, it may be more appropriate to be at least sixteen or seventeen years old. After all, it is impossible to be like modern times in ancient times, and it is stipulated that after the age of eighteen.
However, after the investigation, it was found that the current marriage age of women in the Tang Dynasty does not seem to be too early. When I came out of the Tang Dynasty, it was okay, but in the Middle Tang Dynasty, there was a trend of getting younger, but recently, the number of people who married later has increased again.
It is said that it is a late marriage, but in fact, according to the standards of modern people, it is too early. But after all, it's not modern, Li Chen thinks that it is acceptable not to get married and have children at the age of eleven or twelve, so he doesn't care about it.
Seeing Li Chengyu leave in embarrassment, Li Chen smiled, and then frowned again. The reason for the frown is that Li Chengyu also told him that there are several rumors that are currently spreading, although the rumors have been refuted by Suncheon Daily, they are still spreading quickly. Let him feel the unusualness behind this. (To be continued.) )
