"Death to those who dare to resist the army!" Zhao Hao coldly gave a military order, and the galloping cavalry stepped on the old man's body without hesitation, before that, his body was already covered with crossbow arrows......
The cavalry ignored the wailing women and children who ran away, and walked around them and stepped on the cold water of the river to continue the pursuit of the sturdy Tubo, who were the main culprits in the killing of the Song people.
The Tibetans had never been a good swimmer, and they did not know that their heavy sheepskin jackets would drag them to the bottom of the water, even if they were holding some wood.
Zhao Hao watched one after another Tubo people sink into the water, his eyes were only cold, and the Tubo people who were closer to the river bank were pulled out of the water alive by the rope traps thrown out by the cavalry around their necks.
One of the stout Tibetans seemed to have succeeded, and he carried a log down the river, and after nine deaths, he finally crossed the ten-zhang wide river, and climbed exhausted to the land on the other side.
It is obvious that he is not a qualified warrior, and if he were a warrior, he would understand that the distance of ten zhang is still within the range of the crossbow arrow.
He stood up and wanted to roar at the cavalry on the opposite side to vent the anger in his chest, but he saw the cavalryman in black armor on the opposite side raise the strong crossbow in his hand, he heard the sound of the crossbow machine, and also saw the three crossbow arrows flying out of the strong crossbow, there was no time to dodge, the three crossbow arrows were all nailed to his broad chest......
The cavalry drove the women and children from a distance, and the deputy team whispered: "According to the rules of the Western Yunnan Grassland Mansion, these people should all be executed!" ”
Zhao Hao took off his helmet and looked at those lamb-like women and children, and said coldly: "Settle the case, the murderers have all been ambushed." Escort all these people to the Guizhi Prefecture, we are soldiers, not the arrest of the Guizhi Prefecture, if you want to kill women and children, let them kill them, proud soldiers can't do anything to kill women and children. Don't tarnish our reputation! ”
The deputy team nodded and said, "That's true, our duty is to guard the grassland, not to hunt down thieves and catch murderers." ”
After two days of escorting the criminals to the location of the Settlement Mansion on the shores of Aquila Lake, it became a relatively prosperous town, with an extremely simple street full of herds of cattle and sheep and small traders carrying goods.
Zhao Hao even saw a small green building at the end of the street. On the two-story wooden building, several scantily clad women kept waving to Zhao Hao.
A fat businessman grabbed the reins of Zhao Hao's war horse and said, "General, I see that you are a warrior who has returned from victory, why did you capture some serfs?" If the general is willing, the old man is willing to pay a high price for it. Never dare to let the general suffer! ”
Zhao Hao leaned down and said, "Do you know that these people just killed their former master?" Oh, you probably know the steward of the Willful Ascension! He was nailed to the chest with a stake and bled to death, why, do you still want these serfs? ”
The fat on the fat merchant's face trembled for a moment and said: "Since he has seen blood, the old man still doesn't want it, the Tubo people are like tigers, once they are stained with blood, they will be bloodthirsty in the future." If you don't need it, you might as well take it to Fa-rectification, but it's a pity. How can you kill someone......"
Zhao Hao saw the fat businessman muttering and walked away, sneered and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard someone shouting his name above his head, and when he looked up, he found that it was Zhao Ting, who was lying in the middle of a group of prostitutes in disheveled clothes, smiling at himself with his clothes open.
Zhao Hao shook his head. pointed at the Tibetan women and children who were arrested with a horsewhip to indicate that they had important tasks and had no time to go to the Qinglou to fool around.
Zhao Ting turned over and simply jumped down from the green building and said with a smile: "Sixteenth brother." It's a good thing, the two servant women in the building are convex and backward, which makes people angry. The little brother has all been packed, and the matter of escorting the prisoner will be handed over to Lao Yang, and our brother will be relaxed and relaxed. ”
Zhao Hao frowned and said: "I remember that when you went to the Qinglou, you generally liked to know everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and you looked down on those who sold meat on the street, how did you like this bite now?" ”
Zhao Ting said with a smile: "The little brother was sent by the general to the place where birds don't in Xiaosong Mountain for half a year, and when he came back, he saw that the sows were all double eyelids, where did he dare to pick." ”
Zhao Hao helped his clan brother straighten his clothes and said: "Don't play anymore, aunts and they are afraid of us in the capital, we have paid such a big price to temper ourselves, do you remember Your Majesty's tearful words to ask us?"
The Zhao family has reached the most dangerous time, now is not the time to play, and after the crown prince officially succeeds to the throne, brother, I will accompany you to the largest Qinglou in Tokyo. ”
Zhao Ting said with a smile: "What the younger brother sees is different from what you see, the younger brother only sees that my Great Song Dynasty is now a good time to thrive, the army is invincible across the world, and our brother will be able to drive the army across the world in the future." ”
Zhao Hao shook his head and said, "We naturally feel like this in the Jingxi Army, do you know?" Cao Rong was defeated and died in Jianchang Mansion, the 4,000 army fled back more than 2,000 people, Cao Rong's own head was cut off by the Dali people and sent to Tokyo, assuming that the bandits killed, the queen was furious, and asked the Privy Council to order us to enter the Dali country. ”
Zhao Ting said with a smile: "Cao Rong should have died a long time ago, it is really good to be able to survive until the beginning of spring, besides, it is the queen who is angry and not Your Majesty, even if she is angry and closes my door, we have so many manpower, we can take care of the grassland, we can't take care of Dali, Dashuai even made his own name into a flag to help Jianchang Mansion, what else do we want us to do?"
Let's go, brother, I'll go with you first, and then we'll have a good drink, and I'll get a good pot of wine from that bastard monkey......"
The chief official of the Guizhi Mansion is Peng Jiu, and his duty is to mediate disputes on the grassland, he used to be Liang Ji, and after Peng Jiu lost his guessing boxing, he became him.
Zhao Hao, Zhao Ting entered the lobby of the Guizhi Mansion and found Peng Jiu with his feet on the table, holding a huge marching kettle in his hand and drinking, and the hall was filled with a strong aroma of wine.
Zhao Ting sat on Peng Jiu's table with a shy face and asked Peng Jiu if he wanted to drink.
Peng Jiu stuffed the wine jug to Zhao Ting, looked at Zhao Hao, who was standing straight there, and said, "Your kid is not as interesting as your brother, just deal with everything yourself, do you have to get it over to bother me?" ”
Zhao Hao said in a deep voice: "General Qiyu, the lowly post found that the defection of the master on the grassland is becoming more and more frequent, and if it continues like this, it will cause chaos. ”
Peng Jiu glanced at Zhao Ting, who was sitting on the table, and said, "How many times is this?" ”
Zhao Ting took his mouth off the kettle and said with a smile: "The previous was five times, and this is the sixth time." ”
Peng Jiu smiled: "Yes, grandma's, six rich people have died, this is not easy to do, what kind of bullshit is called the bastard of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce came to question Lao Tzu twice, and now there is an accident again, that dog day may come again." ”
Zhao Hao saw Peng Jiu talking about him left and right, and frowned: "General, these six serf rebellions all happened to the serfs who cultivated the land, but the herdsmen who were grazing had nothing to do. ”
Peng Jiu touched his thick stubble and looked at Zhao Hao and said with a smile: "Tell me, what should I do about this?" Old dead people are not always a solution. ”
As he spoke, he snatched the wine jug from Zhao Ting's mouth and stuffed it into Zhao Hao's hand.
Zhao Hao raised his neck and poured a large sip of liquor violently, spit out a mouthful of wine and said categorically: "Do what you have to do, go to the land if you can farm, go to herd if you can graze, a large number of servants have moved in recently, they like to farm, and they will also farm, the merchants of the farm should hire them, and the Tubo people should go to graze."
On the one hand, the income has increased, and the merchants have income, and they dare not persecute the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and sell the Tubo people who can't farm the land in their hands to the merchants who open ranches, so they are all happy? ”
Peng Jiu's eyes lit up, and he took Zhao Hao's hand and said happily: "Damn, Lao Tzu's command was full of talents, and I just found out, congratulations, boy, you have been promoted, and you will be the chief official of the Mansion." ”
After speaking, he took out a seal letter from his arms and slapped it in Zhao Hao's hand, laughing. Zhao Ting frowned on the side and congratulated his sixteenth brother on his promotion.
Zhao Hao said in surprise: "How can the important weapon of the country be taught and received so privately? ”
Peng Jiu said angrily: "Lao Tzu's unlucky errand was obtained by guessing boxing, are you not convinced?" If you want to take it, you will give it to Lao Tzu, otherwise I will send you to Komatsu Mountain! ”
Zhao Ting pushed his sixteenth brother to the seat and sat down with great vision, turned his head and said to the angry Peng Jiu: "General, there are two little ladies in Xiaochun Tower, why don't you go with your subordinates to see and see?" ”
Peng Jiu turned his anger into joy and hurriedly asked, "Sure enough?" ”
Zhao Ting laughed and said: "Of course, my subordinates are also experts in reading flowers in the capital, how can they be blind." ”
Peng Jiu shouted: "Don't hurry up and lead the way, take Ben General to see and see......"
Zhao Hao watched Peng Jiu and Zhao Ting leave, and then looked at the main book that was slowly drinking tea in the side hall, and said helplessly to the main book: "Bring up all the files since the establishment of the Settlement Mansion." ”
It is not surprising that the chief of the Jingxi army has changed in this form of the commander in front of him, these people regard the military position as bigger than the sky, but they don't care about the civilian positions arranged in the army, a meal, a gamble is likely to replace their own commander, this kind of person is generally on the corpse, and suddenly a commander who wants to read the file is really a little strange.
