Chapter 82: Recommending a Military Division
But she still knelt on the ground without humility or arrogance, and retorted in a straight voice, "The people take food as the sky, in addition to repelling the enemy army, letting the people eat and dress is also a way to protect their families and defend the country!" Daddy only felt embarrassed to let the soldiers farm, but did Daddy go to the street to listen to it? Look at what those people say when they know that the Xiaoyan family army led by his brother is cultivating wasteland? ”
"All the military salaries allocated by the DPRK were sent to the frontier to those soldiers stationed there, but these people who were guarding the imperial city lived on your own pocket from your father's pocket. Daddy, did you ever think that our palace was already stretched? What if one day we can't afford to support those soldiers? Yan Zenyi saw that his father was silent, and continued, "These soldiers have nothing to do every day except for the morning training, and there are many people in the army who like to go to the green house and get drunk in the casino. Cultivating land is not only self-sufficient, but also exercised. Isn't it good that the surplus can be stored for the future and used for the relief of the people? ”
Yan Duhuan didn't speak, but remembered that there was a deputy general in the army a few days ago, and he dared to take credit when he went to Goolan Courtyard, but he was troubled in the army, and he still relied on him to find money from his son to settle the matter.
In fact, the military order strictly prohibits prostitution and gambling, but those veterans are a little oily, and they no longer discipline soldiers as before, and his Yanjia army is indeed much looser. Although the adjutant general was given 50 lashes according to military law, it did not seem to have any effect, and some soldiers continued to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble as they should.
"Although there are many good generals in the Yan family's army, there are also a lot of rice worms, and I believe that my father himself has experienced it. But why do we save money on rice worms? Good habits are difficult to develop, but bad habits are contagious. ”
"You mean you want me to disarm?" Yan Wanhuan's lips trembled, and he looked at his daughter who was still kneeling with some uncertainty.
"It's not disarmament, it's survival of the fittest, and the reorganization of the lintel of my Yanjia army! We can use competition to weed out a group of useless people. Those who have been eliminated may be given a certain amount of severance pay according to their military merits and sent back to their hometowns. 100,000 useless soldiers can't defeat 50,000 elite soldiers, right? ”
Yan Duhuan was silent for a long time, and there were thousands of thoughts in his head.
He suddenly felt that he seemed to be a little old, and he used to be thunderous, and he didn't have a soft-footed shrimp under his command. But recently, every time I inspect the barracks, I can clearly feel the slackness of those soldiers, and more and more each time.
Maybe what my daughter said is right, bad habits are contagious, and the Yan family army, which has grown by herself, must not be wasted by a few grains of mouse feces.
"Go back, I'm going to think about it." Yan Wanhuan finally waved his hand, turned around and ignored the kneeling pair of children.
Yan Zenyi and Su Manshu helped Yan Youhong out of the ancestral hall and met Su Ruoshui who came in a hurry.
Yan Zenyi saw that Su Ruoshui seemed to be in a little anxious, and he was sweating profusely, not at all like the clouds and breeze on weekdays.
She took out a handkerchief from her cuffs with some emotion, handed it over and said, "Thank you Uncle Cousin for coming like this, I have already made it clear to my father that the relationship is serious, but my father is still a little hesitant." Next, it's up to my uncle, I'll take my brother down to rub some medicine first, and come to the Fence Chrysanthemum Courtyard for dinner later, right? ”
Su Ruoshui saw that Yan Zen's clothes were intact, so he also calmed down, took the handkerchief of Yan Zen clothes, wiped the sweat on his head, and said with a slight bow, "Go." ”
Yan Zenyi didn't let her brother go back to her yard, and when it came to injury medicine, she still trusted Fengyue very much.
The injuries on Yan Youhong's body are not light, it can be seen that Yan Wanhuan is extremely ruthless. But for a man who has been in the barracks since he was a child, the injury is not serious.
Yan Youhong enjoyed the comfort of the cold ointment wiping on his back, and at the same time felt the person who rubbed the medicine for himself, and the hot tears fell on his back.
Some are hot, and some are slightly painful.
But he was inexplicably relieved. His love for his sister may not be as good as his sister's feelings for him.
From the moment she rushed into the ancestral hall and threw herself on her back, intending to block her father's rattan for herself, he felt a little more guilty about his sister's feelings.
After listening to his sister's words to persuade his father, he suddenly felt that maybe his sister was more talented than him.
After Yan Zenyi gave Yan Youhong medicine, he waited in the courtyard with Yan Youhong Yun Xuanji Yun Tianji. This time, when Yan Youhong was temporarily called back to the palace, he was teaching Yun Tianji to practice martial arts, so he also brought Yun Tianji back.
Yan Youhong actually likes Yun Tianji very much, although he is not very old, he is clever, has many ghost ideas, can endure hardships, and is also very talented in martial arts.
And Yun Xuanji has been thinking about it since he drank a glass with Su Ruoshui last time, looking forward to having another drink with someone as wise as Su Ruoshui.
For this reason, he also specially prepared a good autumn dew, and this time he also moved to the fence chrysanthemum courtyard, and prepared some rose dew for Yan Zen clothes.
Yan Zenyi always worked overtime to catch up with the manuscript in his previous life, and often drank a glass of whiskey late at night in order to stay up late. I don't have a demand for wine, but I still like good wine, and when I came to this ancient time, I have long coveted this ancient wine.
It's just that because he is only thirteen years old, he is afraid that he will not grow taller after drinking, so he has been pressing. Knowing that this Yun Xuanji also prepared wine for himself, he hurriedly called Feng Yue to inquire, and after confirming that this was similar to juice and would not affect his growth, he stared at the small bottle of rose dew with bright eyes.
She is not short among her peers now, but in her previous life, she grew into a little short because she had not eaten well since she was a child.
In this life, she naturally hopes that she can also have a pair of long legs.
In the courtyard, there was also a strong enchanting with her eyes, which opened that day and could have eaten with Su Ruoshui, but Su Ruoshui only sat for a while when she had something to do, so she left first, and she was not so sad.
Hearing that Su Ruoshui would come today, she stared at the gate of the courtyard absentmindedly all afternoon, and for a while she was worried about whether her dress would be too casual today, and for a while she felt that she had not slept well recently, and her complexion must be very bad, and she should go and wipe some rouge.
In short, she had changed three dresses in one afternoon, rubbed pink rouge, and touched up makeup twice.
waited until two moments before Su Ruoshui finally came to the Fence Chrysanthemum Courtyard as promised.
Everyone stared at him as he entered the door, all staring at his expressionless ice cube face with full wistfulness, only Yan Chanyi rushed forward with an anxious face, grabbed Su Ruoshui's wide sleeves, and asked in a low voice, "How is it?" Did my dad agree? ”
Su Ruoshui enjoyed the feeling of his sleeves being swayed by Yan Zen clothes very much, so he squinted silently, and pulled Yan Zen clothes back to the table with wide sleeves and sat down.
He poured himself a cup of tea again, looked at everyone's expectant eyes, and then smiled lightly, "Lord Yan agreed to open up the wasteland, but he still has some scruples about disarmament, I recommended a military advisor to him, and he promised to consider it." ”
"Really! That's great! Yan Zenyi slapped the table excitedly, and almost jumped up.
As long as Daddy agrees to open up the wasteland, then the life of the Yan Jiajun will definitely get better and better, and his own palace can also save some silver, and Daddy will no longer need to wear a foot coat with patches.
"Don't jump yet, aren't you curious about who the military advisor I recommend is?" Su Ruoshui saw the excited appearance of Yan Zen clothes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't hide it, but he still pretended to be serious and forcibly paralyzed his face.
"Strategist? Do I know? Yan Zenyi didn't understand what his recommendation of the military advisor had to do with him, but hearing him say this, he also guessed that this person must have something to do with him, looking at the banter in the corner of Su Ruoshui's eyes, he was inexplicably a little uneasy.
"I recommended Yan Ge." Su Ruoshui looked at Yan Zenyi's excited face and completely stiffened, and for some reason wanted to laugh out loud.
"Songs?" Everyone present stared at Su Ruoshui in amazement, as if he had said something inexplicable.
"Why me?" Yan Chanyi pointed at himself blankly, still wondering if his ears had heard it wrong.
"Why can't it be you? I think with your intelligence, being a military advisor is a bit overkill. Su Ruoshui picked up the tea bowl again disappreciatively, and only after taking a sip did he say, "Don't you want to be able to go into battle to kill the enemy one day?" If you can be a military advisor, it can be regarded as a dream come true in advance. And your father said that there are a lot of old pedantries in the army, and your father is a man who doesn't value brotherhood. If someone relies on friendship to prevent your father from ordering the wasteland, then your previous efforts may come to naught. ”
"But I'm ...... What if they don't accept me and want to beat me? Yan Zenyi was scared when he thought about it.
"You can take your senior sister with you," Su Ruoshui glanced at Li Enchanting without a trace, and found that the other party had been looking at him with light in his eyes, his eyes couldn't help but be a little colder, and then looked back at Yan Zen Yi who was retracted in the chair, "Most of the officers and soldiers in the army have only learned some fist and foot kung fu, and with your senior sister's martial arts, they will definitely be able to protect you and help you establish your authority." ”
"Senior sister......" Yan Zenyi's eyes immediately looked at Li Enchanting on the other side when he heard the words and bewitched him, and said hesitantly, "Senior sister, are you willing to go to the barracks with me?" It won't be long, a month at most! ”
"Okay." Li Enchanting didn't hesitate to agree, she promised her master that she would take good care of her sister, and she would do her best to help her.
What's more, this request was made by her own male god, not to mention letting her accompany her sister into the barracks, even if it was really an unreasonable request from her sister, she would definitely agree to it without hesitation!
"You don't have to be in such a hurry to make up your mind, I don't think my father may agree. Although my father doesn't object to you pretending to be a man and wandering around, but after all, you are still a daughter's family, let you live in the barracks, I think my mother will be the first to jump out and object. Yan Youhong said this, but he agreed with Su Ruoshui's proposal very much in his heart.
