Chapter 130: Each has its own determination
The strength of the equipment is almost zero, the will to fight is zero, and there is no organization, in the face of such an enemy, zero casualties to win, there is still no sense of accomplishment, and even the addiction of queuing up to shoot is not enough, it is not good to gather those prisoners and execute them on the spot. The only gain is to once again verify the quality of the guards under him, which is still too far from the standard required by Li Xian.
Seeing that Li Xian reprimanded Jia Hao and other leaders of the guards, he didn't know how to grasp the actual changes on the battlefield, what was the usual reason to lead the troops and not be careful, what artillery sentry even hit the village gate at a distance of more than 100 steps, and only 50% of the hit rate, so that everyone bowed their heads and did not dare to come out of the atmosphere, and even Yan Sanniang no longer had the previous high spirit, so he shrank back, for fear that he would turn his face and stare at him, and he would come to settle the account he was following.
"You ...... Director-General, is it usually like this? ”
Yan Sanniang felt that Li Xian was really a little strange at this time, and he really looked like a marshal who commanded the army. Now that he has won a big battle, there are almost no casualties on his side, but he is still so harsh, the storyteller said, Ci is not in charge of the army, it should be his taste.
"Yes, the Director-General is very stern......"
Pan Shiyu is just a personal guard, but he doesn't have to be trained with him, Yan Sanniang's question, he also stared at her with resentment, and said in his heart, Isn't I a living example? Just because he took Guan Yu to see you, he was sent to the mountains to pan for gold, and stayed with the poor pair of the Meng family for two days, and was not released back until the Chinese New Year's Eve.
"But...... Usually speaking, the general department has not been so fierce as to be so fierce, what is the matter today? ”
Pan Shiyu muttered to himself.
"Whew...... I'm feeling better, I'm not satisfied, I really want to have a good fight. ”
After Li Xian counted Hu Hanshan's recklessness of chasing the shotgun and rushing to the door, the depression in his heart finally relaxed, and then began to review himself, isn't this enough? Do you really have to let your subordinates die and be injured in order to be comfortable? These are all seedlings of the future, and it hurts to lose one.
"Okay, except for what I said just now, you all performed well, and I believe that even if Zhang Ying's soldiers on the other side can get today's results."
Li Xi made a summary statement, and the guards only felt that the dark clouds had dispersed, and the warmth was empty.
"Those soldiers under Zhang Yingtou are not much stronger than these bandits, I feel that even if they are the pro-soldiers under Shi Junmen before, they may not be able to withstand us!"
Hu Hanshan is the lord who will shine for three days when he gets a little sunshine, grinning and laughing, and the others also put on a tacit face that the hero has seen.
Li Shi has never explicitly mentioned the word rebellion to them, the guards, and he has not gone deep into the core of Jia Hao, Wu Ya and the Chinese character generation of teenagers. However, from clothing, food, housing, transportation to spiritual thoughts, the connection between these guards and the government and even the imperial court has been gradually severed by Li Xi from all details, and he spared no effort to subtly hint to everyone from many small details that "we always have a war with the officers and soldiers" This meaning, compared with the strength of the officers and soldiers, is a natural small action.
Listening to these words, Yan Sanniang in the back bit her lip, she couldn't be more arrogant...... But look at Li Xian's style, sweet jujube follows behind the slap, and it follows so naturally, he is really a natural commander.
Looking at the battlefield, the corpses in that place shocked her, and then thought of the situation when Li Xian held a short gun and pointed at her head earlier, she felt that her throat was dry, it seems that the words of those guards are not excessive, she can really practice shotguns well, no matter how high her martial arts are, she will end up with the same fate as these bandits.
"You...... Didn't you say I could put forward conditions? ”
Taking advantage of Li Shi's availability, Yan Sanniang found him and mustered up the courage to speak, Li Shi smiled and nodded, signaling her to continue.
"I ...... To learn the skill of this shotgun, let's shoot for shot! ”
Yan Sanniang's request made Li Xian stunned, and naturally asked, you can't hold a shotgun, why do you learn this skill?
"If you learn it, you will know what to deal with!"
Yan Sanniang's words are very in line with the thinking of martial artists, Li Xian wanted to say that you can't deal with it if you learn, but think about it again, she promised herself before, but she hasn't put forward any conditions, since it is a transaction, let her be. Anyway, there's nothing to learn, it's just to hold the gun and aim steadily.
After the battle, the matter of cleaning up the battlefield was solved by the people who followed behind, and what they had to do was to select prisoners. After the Yang Chun Rebellion, the locals of Shaozhou were carefully combed by the government, and at this time, the people who turned around outside must still be the habitual bandits who followed Yang Chun and Mengkui to make trouble before, and the outsiders were the poor people they coerced, and these two types of people had to be treated separately.
Outsiders would be escorted to Luo Heng's side and thrown to work in the shantytown on his side, while local bandits would give Li Zhushou or Zhou Ning.
These thieves were all ragged, kowtowing and begging for mercy, just begging for a full meal and hot soup, and then they didn't care whether they were dead or alive, seeing that their outstretched hands were black and cracked, Yan Sanniang's heart was cold.
Yan Sanniang rarely thought about big issues other than her own life circle, and looking at the scene in front of her, her mood was also spreading. felt that the truth of not being bullied that she knew before seemed to have hit an incomparably complex network, which made her shake her belief in herself.
Yan Sanniang asked Li Shi: "Do you want to raise such an army of 10,000 people and build countless guns and cannons to rebel against the imperial court?" ”
Li Shi asked rhetorically: "Contrary to the imperial court, and then what?" ”
He vaguely heard that Yan Sanniang was struggling, and the grass people were against the court because they couldn't survive, but most of them only became these thieves who bullied others in front of them. This made Yan Sanniang, who was simple-hearted, confused about the "backbone" she understood, but she herself didn't know that she had escaped from the "rebellion" before, which actually stemmed from such a knot.
When he asked, Yan Sanniang nodded involuntarily, yes, that's what she meant, and then what? Set up a new court, then oppress people, and provoke people to rebel again?
"They don't know what they should rebel against, they just want to survive. If they knew who, what, and what was really the opposite, they wouldn't be like this. If you do the other way, you can figure out what to do. ”
Li Xian said this, Yan Sanniang first nodded, and then shook her head, she understood the first half, but she still didn't understand the second half.
"Actually, you also know, if everyone in the world is like you, this world will be peaceful."
Li Xian smiled and comforted her, Yan Sanniang's head lowered, she was still ...... I don't understand, but this is a warm thing in her heart. It took her a long time to come back to her senses, is this praising her, or is it hurting her?
For the next three or four days, countless questions kept circling around her head, until Li Xi and Zhang Ying converged and cleaned up the last thief's den, she still didn't come to any conclusions, or Li Xi pulled her out of the sea of suffering.
"Some people are born to do things, some people are born to think about things, Sanniang, you are obviously the former, so you don't have to embarrass yourself."
Yan Sanniang nodded with relief, although she vaguely felt that these words were still hurting her, but things seemed to be like this. Then the little doubt that still existed in her mind was also cleaned up by Zhang Ying's greeting.
"Is this the fourth sister-in-law? Fourth brother, you really think I am an outsider, when did you marry like this...... Xianshu's fourth sister-in-law didn't tell me. ”
Yan Sanniang was so ashamed of these words that she hurriedly shook her hand, quickly avoided it, and heard Li Xian say in the back: "Don't call randomly, the girl's father is recuperating in my Zhuangzi, she is looking for me and got lost, so she had to take her", she breathed a sigh of relief, and then secretly hated that this guy was really full of nonsense, and he was white again.
The kung fu girl finally decided that Li Xian's mouth could not be trusted.
Yan Sanniang solved the confusion in her heart, and the bandits in Yingbei Mountain were also cleaned up, and the remaining sporadic bandits, that is, the matter of the local officials catching quickly.
"The villains from the north have finally been sent away, and now they can free up their hands to solve the problems in the south."
Li Xian's idea is also very appropriate to apply to another group of "evil guests".
"I guess they'll send me out like a villain."
On the Lianjiang River, an official ship was leisurely heading east, and Jiang Zan, who was pale, looked at the wooden fence on the river that was gradually disappearing, and whispered to himself.
"Big brother, you are here with the power of the imperial court, and the faces of these earth snakes are really hateful! Especially that Li Shi, from beginning to end, I haven't met with your eldest brother, and I didn't even give you a New Year's gift, which is really arrogant! ”
A cold voice sounded behind Jiang Zan, and a big man with a fox fur in his hand walked out of the cabin, it was Li Wei who had visited Li Zhuang at night, and when it came to Li Shi, the anger on his face could hardly be suppressed.
"He has already sent it, and the Guan Hui he got entangled, in addition to the original surplus of 10,000 taels, also gave me another 5,000 taels of gifts. It is the same as the number I gave when I pressed the scribe, and it is really hard to think about what I tossed before. ”
Jiang Zan's words were free and easy, but his tone was frustrated and unwilling.
"Since you can give this amount to your eldest brother, it means that they can eat more!"
Li Wei can see it through.
Jiang Zan nodded: "But ...... Isn't that bad? ”
Li Wei shook his head: "I've been thinking about it for so long, and I always feel that the banknotes of the imperial court are in the hands of their merchants, so they can't help but toss them later?" I can't tell how many things will happen then! Now that the matter of the eldest brother here has been concluded, it is better to report this matter to the bureau and let the ministry in the capital seal their guanhui! ”
Speaking of this, he gritted his teeth and glared: "Just let that Li Shi lose a good hand!" ”
Jiang Zan sneered: "Report it? The Superintendent of Taiping Customs has just submitted a report to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Households, saying that I have acted in a capable manner here, and that I have made up for the year's deficit in just half a month. Master Ma recovered, not long after taking over the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he was diligent in showing his merits, and the exploits of my little man Wailang in Hun Huan should also be in the eyes of the Long Live Lord, and when he returned to Beijing, maybe there was a future, you let me ...... Submit it again? ”
Li Wei frowned, Li Shi, who he hated originally, actually had kindness to Jiang Zan, which was really inexplicable.
"But I still hate, what I hate is, whether it is a blessing or a curse, a profit or a loss, it should be in my hands, in the hands of the court, but somehow, I was disturbed by Li Xian's gang, but the power was lost, so I waited for their alms. Sixteen, you are right, the power of the imperial court should be everywhere, and it should not be usurped by the local government or even merchants, otherwise the blessing of today is a disaster of a different name. ”
After staying in Xunzhuo for almost a month, Jiang Zan also understood that behind the whole thing was Li Xian Li Banxian.
"But I don't ...... about it Ahem......"
It seemed that he was suffering from the cold, Jiang Zan suddenly coughed, and Li Wei hurriedly put on a fox fur for him.
"I can't keep my voice, and that's what makes me even more humiliated. Think about it again, even if I can make a statement, when things go to Wan Sui Ye, it will not be as you think, Li Xi may be suppressed, but the banknote superintendent, and even those imperial businessmen in the Internal Affairs Office, will intervene to replace the role of Li Xi and that Guan Hui, Long Live Lord...... Kuanren will not be harsh on the subordinates in these details. ”
Jiang Zan's words made Li Wei sigh heavily.
"The law of the imperial court is negligent, coupled with the mediocre officials all over the land, only Li Xian dares to take it wantonly, people like him are always in trouble!"
Jiang Zan patted Li Wei's arm: "Officialdom is like the sea, if you have a heart that dares to overcome obstacles, you can't do things, you just sigh ...... today."
He lowered his voice, and his face was bloody again: "We're still young, Sixteen, have you really made up your mind?" This time, it is difficult for people like us to work hard, but the next ...... It's hard to say. ”
Li Wei nodded slowly: "I just can't get used to the face of people like Li Shi, you have to pay attention to the rules in doing things, and the rules of the court are the greatest!" In the past, I Li Wei messed around in Xuzhou and learned a lot of lessons, and then I followed my eldest brother to do things, and I realized that I was ridiculously wrong. He Li Xi is like the same me in the past, but his ability and heart are one size bigger, and he is not the only one such person, he is all over the world. This kind of person will definitely ruin the world, I, Li Wei, will also be an official in order to eradicate them! ”
