Volume 3 Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains 032 The Old Man
Lin Shuhan nodded, and was about to step into the door, but Wu Ruofei covered his mouth and smiled: "Mr. Lin is still a holy hand of calligraphy and painting, but he doesn't understand this style, it seems that Mr. Lin's calligraphy and painting are just coquettish for a while, I'm afraid it can't be regarded as a masterpiece, right?" ”
Lin Shuhan is extremely conceited, calling himself "poetry, calligraphy and painting" four unique, if others say this about him, he will walk away with his sleeves at the lightest, and cut off the relationship at the worst, but Wu Ruofei is his nemesis, after hearing Wu Ruofei's words, Lin Shuhan had no choice but to shake his head in ridicule, and said: "If it is not a lesson, then I will retreat and think about it behind closed doors." ”
But seeing Wen Lingjiao flashing out of Qiu Yizhi's side, he blushed and bowed his head and said, "Mr. Lin is looking for a son, there must be something important, so please come in and talk!" ”
Wu Ruofei was the leader of the flowers on the bank of the Qinhuai River, although he was a performer and not a man, but he was also used to seeing things between men and women, seeing Wen Lingjiao's face flushed and her eyes wandering, she had already tasted the three flavors, so she stepped forward and squeezed past Qiu Yizhi, held Wen Lingjiao's hand, and said, "What does my sister do with them?" Our sisters go into the house and talk, and let them drink the northwest wind here. With that, he pushed Wen Lingjiao back into the room, closed the door with his backhand, and didn't know what to say.
So Qiu Yizhi and Lin Shuhan looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and walked side by side to Qiu Yizhi's study.
I only heard Lin Shuhan say: "My lord, I did a wonderful job of subduing the hearts of the army outside the city today, Lin really admires it!" ”
Qiu Yizhi waved his hand and said, "What is there to admire or not admire?" I used the gold medal order arrow, and it was the emperor's prestige to subdue them, and it was the same for others. ”
Lin Shuhan smiled and said, "Lord Qiu is really too modest. Don't say that if you change someone else, take out this treasure, and others will not doubt it. Even the Holy One himself may not be willing to give him such an extremely important thing. ”
Qiu Yizhi smiled bitterly: "Does Mr. Lin think this is a good thing?" I carry it every day, and my stomach has calluses on it, and I don't dare to leave my body for a while, and occasionally I can't see it, so I am as anxious as a headless fly......"
"Hahaha!" Lin Shuhan laughed a few times, and actually memorized the book, "The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first work their minds, starve their bodies, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are tempted to endure and gain what they can't ......."
He was reciting, Qiu Yizhi had let him into his study, and when he saw that his room was wet and cold, he asked someone to bring a charcoal basin in, and when the room was slightly warmer, Qiu Yizhi said: "Mr. Lin has taken a look at me." What ambitions do I have, what great responsibilities can I undertake? It's just that this group of people is pitiful, and they are afraid that they will be cornered and disturb the place, so they will be kept and will be used to fight back against the king of Lingnan in the future. ”
But listening to Lin Shuhan smiled again and memorized the book: "I don't see it, so I know." It's not self-sufficient, so it's shown. It is not self-defeating, so it is meritorious. Not self-conscious, so long. The husband is indisputable, so the world cannot compete with him......"
"Alright, alright." Qiu Yizhi interrupted, "Mr. Lin was still frightened just now, how could he have such an interest today, and he actually shook up his schoolbag?" I am a small seven-grade county order, I have fought with Lord Thorn Shi, and now I have to fight with the prince of Lingnan, Mr. let me rest! ”
Lin Shuhan finally stopped endorsing, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that adults don't fight with others, and others want to fight with adults......"
Qiu Yizhi heard Lin Shuhan say these three words, and he had already guessed the meaning of his words, so he quickly deflected the words and said: "I am still lingering with Miss Wen, Mr. Lin pulled me out of the gentle township, shouldn't he be gossiping with me?" ”
Lin Shuhan also knew that Qiu Yizhi didn't want to continue talking, so he followed his words and said, "Of course not. I think, now most of Jiangnan is in the hands of the prince of Lingnan, the land, sea and land have been cut off, and the adults have no daily entry from Zhou Cijing and Li Zhi, and now they have collected so many thousands of soldiers. These thousands of people are just a few thousand mouths, I wonder if adults can afford to raise them? ”
Qiu Yizhi pondered for a moment and said, "I have considered this matter all the way to Shanyin County. Now I have saved up 100,000 taels of silver, and I have nearly 20,000 taels of silver. If you only eat, you can feed 10,000 people for a year. Therefore, we only promised these people to feed and drink enough, and as for the military salary and bounty, they would have to be settled together after the rebellion was quelled. ”
Lin Shuhan nodded while listening, and said, "My lord is really shrewd, this method is very good. It's just that from now on, I'm afraid that there will be more defeated soldiers and refugees from Gangnam Province gathered under the banner of the Lord's Order, and I'm afraid there will be more than 10,000 by then......"
Qiu Yizhi replied: "That's nature. But don't worry about this, as soon as there are more people, I will lead the army out to fight the Lingnan Provincial army. When the time comes, the city is conquered, and the grain, grass and silver money of the Lingnan Army are collected, in addition to distributing some peace of mind, it can also be used to raise soldiers, isn't it the best of both worlds? ”
Lin Shuhan listened to the case and exclaimed: "Lin is good at literature, but does not understand military affairs. Lord Qiu's words today are better than Lin Mou's reading for ten years, the so-called 'so wisdom will eat the enemy, eat the enemy for a minute, and be my twenty bells', Lin finally understood today. ”
Sure enough, as Lin Shuhan expected, the news that Shanyin County, which was under the jurisdiction of Qiu Yizhi, was safe and able to eat spread far and wide, not only the refugees from Jiangnan Province gathered here, but also the refugees from places as far away as Bashu and Yungui also rushed to hear the wind.
In less than a month, 50,000 or 60,000 people had gathered outside the city, and nearly 10,000 soldiers had been gathered.
Qiu Yizhi calculated that although the silver money in the city was enough, the stored food was already stretched, and there was nowhere to buy it in the troubled times. It is under the banner of the Gangnam Province Jiedu Army. ”
Qiu Yizhi was on his mind, and when he heard this, he said impatiently: "What kind of thing? It's just some rout troops who came to defect, you can just say no to your brother Zhao? Troublesome! ”
The "black-necked toad" said: "My lord, these people are very neat, they don't look like defeated ......."
Qiu Yizhi listened to a spirit, and thought: "Don't be the Lingnan Army pretending to be the Jiangnan Army, wanting to come over and sneak attack ......" but asked: "Can you make it clear, how many people are coming?" ”
The black-necked toad said loudly, "There are about five hundred people, and they were sent by spies from the outpost. ”
When Qiu Yizhi heard this number, his heart was already relieved, and he secretly speculated: "Only 500 people should be just soldiers and horses from Lingnan Road who came to test it." To deal with these people, there is no need to mobilize the Jiangnan Jiedu Army, which is now controlled by himself, just by relying on these pro-soldiers and villagers under his command, he can rely on these terrain familiarity to annihilate them all. However, this is an excellent opportunity for these defeated soldiers to pinch soft persimmons and boost the morale of the army......"
Thinking of this, Qiu Yizhi had a smile on his face and said: "You go down now, tell Zhao Chengxiao, ask him to pay close attention to the movements of the enemy army, and then gather all the men, I will lead the army to quell the rebellion!" ”
The "black-necked toad" could be regarded as having fought a few battles, and felt that the five hundred enemy troops could not be mobilized by the whole army, so he asked confirmatively: "My lord said that it was all the people?" ”
"Yes, all of them! The Jiangnan Jiedu army who came to defect was also brought with them, and what they wanted was fanfare! As he spoke, Qiu Yizhi tied the Western Regions Treasure Knife placed on the table to his waist, and walked out of the door.
Outside the city gate, Zhao Chengxiao, Zhang Qi and others had been waiting for some time, and when they saw Qiu Yizhi coming out, they all gave a military salute.
Qiu Yizhi returned the salute, and saw that the Jiangnan Jiedu Army that had gathered had been quite successful after this month's drill and training, and he was happy in his heart, so he ordered: "Go!" Quell the rebellion with me! ”
With that, he stepped on his cyan sweaty horse, and under the support of eighteen elite soldiers, he headed for the path to the west that had been walked countless times.
Not long after the army had gone, the spies in front came to report that the enemy was moving very quickly, and that the front was only half an hour away from our army.
Qiu Yizhi was a little surprised when he heard this, but he was not panicked, so he led his soldiers to ambush in the mountains and dense forests on both sides of the road, and Zhao Chengxiao led the "Dangya Battalion" and a total of 300 people from the Jiangnan Army Jiedu Army to meet in front, intending to block the enemy's advance, attack from all sides, and fight an annihilation battle against the opponent.
After some more time, the enemy army had spared a high mountain and entered Qiu Yizhi's field of vision.
Qiu Yizhi looked fixedly, only to see that the incoming army was really wearing the uniform of the Jiangnan Jiedu Army, under the banner of the Jiangnan Jiedu Army, although the clothes were a little shabby, but the spirit was excellent, and two columns were lined up according to the path, and they marched quickly in the mountains and forests without saying a word.
According to Qiu Yizhi's current deployment, with just a wave of the command flag, the soldiers and horses in ambush on both sides of the road can shoot all the more than 500 people under the mountain. But when he saw this group of people, he was actually a little curious, and hurriedly asked someone to pass the order, asking Zhao Chengxiao to test the opponent's strength in the first place, and he would wait for the opportunity to attack the opponent's flank, don't kill them, it's best to catch them all alive.
The "black-necked toad" who was in charge of errands and orders went down for a while, but he didn't see Zhao Chengxiao make any moves, and after a while, he saw Zhao Chengxiao taking the lead and talking with the enemy's commander.
Qiu Yizhi knew that although Zhao Chengxiao was not murderous, he had always acted vigorously and resolutely, and he felt a little strange, but he saw the "black-necked toad" jumping down the mountain and running down, and said with a smile: "My lord, it's not an enemy army, it's an acquaintance, you go down and take a look!" ”
Qiu Yizhi was even more strange when he heard it, and hurriedly asked: "You kid only speaks half a sentence, what kind of acquaintance is it, and who is the surname, you can tell me clearly." ”
The "black-necked toad" scratched his head in embarrassment: "I've seen it, but I can't name it, just go down and take a look." ”
Qiu Yizhi was helpless, so he ordered Zhang Qi beside him to be the commander, and he led eighteen personal soldiers and Wei Chi Jiming, under the leadership of the "black-necked toad", and went down the mountain.
As soon as he ran to the bottom of the mountain, he saw Zhao Chengxiao coming quickly, saluted, and said, "My lord, who do you think is coming?" With that, he stretched out his hand and pointed forward.
Qiu Yizhi looked forward in the direction of Zhao Chengxiao's finger, and saw a military general standing opposite, although the armor on his body was a little dull, but the person was holding a spear, standing with his head held high, looking majestic.
Qiu Yizhi carefully identified it, and exclaimed happily: "Wu Changxi, why are you here?" ”
The military general was also very happy when he heard Qiu Yizhi call out his name, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Qiu Yizhi: "My lord hasn't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed?" Tears welled up in his eyes.
