Chapter 69: The Chinese Ending

(Today's state is not good, I'm worried about the battlefield list~~~~)

In front of the camp, a group of black cavalry was approaching the camp, and the cavalry regiment was guarding a carriage, and it was Du Huangshang sitting in the cart. Seeing that Li Xuan, who was relying on the comforting and appeasement, finally breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Please return to the camp for the time being, and inform you after meeting Du Xianggong in this section."

To tell the truth, the purpose of the veterans coming to Jinyang is nothing more than to get a bowl of rice to eat, at this time, seeing that the consolation and pacification envoy who was responsible for solving the matter arrived, and did not bring many guards, it was not as if they had come to suppress, so they went back to the camp according to Li Yan's orders. These nearly 20,000 veterans came unorganized and chaotic, but when they arrived here, they lived according to the structure of each town. The battalions also elected their leaders, but the leaders spent much more time making trouble and fighting than maintaining order. This time, Li Hu went out of the city, and specially brought three hundred soldiers out to maintain order with the leaders elected by each battalion, so that he could maintain it, and did not disturb the people's business travel, but even so, the nearby people escaped cleanly. It's not that the veterans are afraid of these 300 people, but 300 people are considered a hair out of 20,000 people?

Seeing that Du Huangshang's car was about to enter the camp, Li Yu hurriedly ordered dozens of soldiers around him to form a team, and he was dressed properly, dusted off his robes, and led the soldiers to come forward to greet him. Don't want him to order, naturally there are soldiers to separate the road, and when he saw Du Huangshang getting out of the car, Li Yan stepped forward and said loudly according to the courtesy:

"Xiaguan Hezhong Jin Jiangjie envoy Li Yu visited Du Xianggong."

Du Huangshang hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and asked in a surprised whisper:

"Li Jiedu is in danger with his body, his merit is in the community, and he is an old acquaintance with Du, why did he make this great gift?"

Li Yu continued to say loudly:

"Where the etiquette of the court is, the lower officials dare not abolish the public with private interests."

Then he whispered:

"Du Xianggong, these 20,000 soldiers have been in the border area for a long time, advocating the power of force, only thinking that their generals are the biggest, sometimes they don't even pay attention to the festival, and they don't know how to fear the court's law and etiquette.

Only then did Du Huangshang understand Li Huan's intentions, let go of his hand and stood in place, accepted Li Huan's big gift in a dignified manner, and then returned Li Huan's half-salute. This scene really saw the onlookers of the veteran stunned, the most common veteran in the army is their own soldiers and horses, even the festival envoy is rarely seen, always think that the emperor is far away, only then do I know that there are still people on the festival to make it press.

Obediently, it seems that this Du Xianggong's background is really not small.

Du Huangshang greatly admired Li Hu because of this, and Li Hu's later entry into the prime minister has nothing to do with today's events. After this scene was staged, after the pacification of Huaixi, Du Li and the others did not have time to think about what would happen in a few years. Just a moment after entering Li Huan's big tent, Li Hu ordered the soldiers to send the leaders elected by each town to meet the ministers to comfort and appease the minister. Du Huangsheng has a deep cliff and is not smiling, although these people are leaders, they are at most small colonels in the army, where have they ever seen such a big official? Just now I saw Li Yan, who has always been peaceful, respectful to Du Huangshang, and I don't know what to do about this matter, I can't help but tremble when I suffer from gains and losses. Du Huangshang was unusual, with kind words to soothe, and ordered everyone to go back to gather the veterans of the town and wait for the inventory to be made. After the veterans gathered, Su Hong in the city had already prepared hundreds of clerks and sent them outside the city, two here and three there were divided into various camps. It's just that these bookstores asked strange questions, not only asking which town and which army, but also asking what to do before becoming a soldier, and a small bookstore also asked what he was good at, a veteran soldier in the river was relying on the locals, and said in a weird manner:

"The stuff in the crotch of Lao Tzu's pants is special."

There was a lot of laughter, and immediately long phrases came out, and seeing that the little bookstore could not do any more, the soldiers of the Guards who were patrolling came up and tore out the old soldier's oil, and pressed it on the ground and crackled the board. As soon as the other veterans were about to step forward, they found that there were more soldiers around them, and a general of the River Army was sitting in front of the big tent opposite. I remembered the instruction not to talk nonsense before registration, and immediately became disciplined. Most of these soldiers have been laid off, how many can be strong? Although there are old ones, they are still small soldiers and small officers when they are so old, and their abilities are also limited.

In this half day, Shuofang, Lingyan and the veterans of Jinjiangben Town in Hezhong were the first to be registered. More than 30 people who did not follow the rules during the registration process and spread rumors were picked out and detained separately. Close people here, kill pigs there, I don't know if the butchers and pigs near Jinyang have been collected by Su Hong in the past few days, anyway, a big pot is supported, and the wails of the pigs before death come and go, which effectively stimulates the nerves of the veterans, and when the smell of meat floats, the veterans feel that a good day is coming, and the mouth keeps secreting saliva, at this time, you just take a knife to rebel against them, and they are unwilling.

Then, when it was getting dark, torches were lit in the camp, and each person who had registered two steamed buns and a bowl of broth, and after singing the name, he went to the designated place to suck it, and when he was sucking it, an official wearing a green shirt said:

"Township party, do you want to have broth to drink every day?"

Naturally, the township party members couldn't think of the words of the Tsing Yi officials, and half of the sentence was "It is impossible to have meat soup to drink every day", and they responded in groups. After responding, he was taken away by the Tsing Yi officer. Of course, there are also many people who are caught when they are sucking, or called away for questioning, but the number is not large and has not attracted too many people's attention, but Du Huangshang and Li Hu in the big tent are getting more and more relaxed.

That night, Li Yu persuaded Du Huangshang to go back to Jinyang to rest, and Du Huangshang said:

"Jianhou (Li Huzi Jianhou) can lie here, can't the old man? The matter is over here, but the affairs in Jinyang City still have to be presided over by Jianhou, the old man is almost seventy years old, and he has not been able to rest well all the way, can Jianhou bear to see the old man's old bones are tired and scattered? ”

Where didn't Li Huang know that this was Du Huangsheng's unwillingness to rob him of the credit? He bowed gratefully. Du Huangshang shouted to a young officer in a Guards uniform:

"Master Li, this is Zhao Wulang from the Grain Statistics Department, recommended by Pei Zhongcheng, he knows a lot about things here, and may be able to help you."

This person is Zhao Wu, the beggar who inquired about the news in the old store of the Cao family the year before last, Pei Du, Bai Juyi, and Yuan Zhen.
