Chapter 3 Beware
Zuo Jiqian's appearance here made Zheng Fan a little surprised, but not at all.
After the assassination at the funeral of the former general soldier Xiao Dahai that day,
Jing Nanhou sat on the threshold in front of the mourning hall,
Himself and Zuo Jiqian knelt underneath.
Because of Zuo Jiqian's background, Jingnanhou also chatted with Zuo Jiqian about family life.
You said that Zheng Fan had no envy in his heart at that time, it was naturally impossible, after all, whether in ancient times or in later generations, there was a good family, no matter what he did, he could get twice the result with half the effort.
It's just that, in retrospect, that day Jingnanhou and Zuo Jiqian also talked about the old man of the Zuo family, and between the words, although there was a clear respect between the upper and lower levels, there was still a sense of harmony and respect between the families.
Nima,
What kind of emotion was Jing Nanhou in his heart at that time?
Zheng Fan thinks,
Probably looking at a little quail that is about to finish playing?
The left quail is now locked up inside, in fact, it is not a confinement, the prisoners here are actually okay in terms of personal treatment, and no one abuses and harsh them.
But what is really punishing them in lieu of punishment is probably the great sense of disparity between the people in the past and the prisoners today.
This kind of gap is enough to drive people crazy.
Zheng Fan looked at the lieutenant beside him and asked:
"What is the treatment of the Zuo family?"
"The whole people were reduced to slavery."
Zheng Fan nodded, if he was sentenced to extermination, Zuo Jiqian would not be able to appear here at this time.
The prisoners who can be escorted here are all family members who have been convicted of slavery.
His Majesty the Emperor was merciful and gave them the opportunity to fight again for the freedom of their families.
But those who exterminate the clan, and those whose children are officials outside, you will have no chance of surviving.
After all, there is only one Marquis of Jingnan in the entire Dayan, and at the same time, His Majesty the Emperor only trusts this one Marquis of Jingnan.
This is a great purge, and the left relocation in the fence can't help but make Zheng Fan think of the history before the Soviet-German war, the Soviet Union was also busy purging its own generals at that time, which is also considered by later generations to be one of the reasons why the former collapsed all the way in the early stage of the war.
However, Dayan didn't have to worry about this, although Zuo Jiqian, the garrison of Ji Retreat Fort, was now being "sold" here.
Zhenbei Hou Mansion suppressed the barbarians for a hundred years, what is the relationship between the Zhenbei Army and the Hou Mansion, as Zheng Fan, who once worked as a civil servant in Beifeng County, is clear, it can be said that water cannot be poured into the needle.
And the Jingnan Army, more than ten years ago, Emperor Yan succeeded to the throne soon after it was handed over to Tian Wujing, over the years, the generals promoted by the Jingnan Army were all decided by the Marquis of Jingnan.
Dayan's two most elite field legions will not be affected by this move to clean the gate valve, and even if they do, they are almost negligible.
So, it seems that at least since more than ten years ago, or even earlier, this brother has been wearing a pair of pants.
"Lord Zheng, Lord Zheng!"
Zuo Jiqian saw that Zheng Fan was in a daze, and immediately became anxious.
Zheng Fan retracted his mind, looked at Zuo Jiqian, and sighed helplessly.
The people of the Huo family were privately saved by Xu Fatpang who opened the back door for himself, although a group of clansmen are grouped and it is not easy to divide and disintegrate, but with the advantages and disadvantages, it is estimated that there are still many military leaders who will be interested in them.
War is imminent, whoever has high quality soldiers under his hands, who has immediate combat power, who can earn military merits as soon as possible, the seven hundred people of the Huo family, he is a small well-trained army, they need to kill the enemy to regain freedom for their families, and they also need to rely on them to obtain military merits, and not every military leader has such a strong desire for possessiveness and control.
But to the left Jiqian,
Look at the hundreds of people sitting on the ground after Zuo Jiqian,
Zheng Fan believes,
This is not another backdoor that Xu Fatpang left for himself, purely because of ...... Unsalable.
First of all, although Zuo Jiqian is the foundation of the Zuo family and the Zuo family, he is not in Yinlang County, but Zuo Jiqian is the former garrison of Ji Huibao, and he is accompanied by the subordinates who accompanied him from the Zuo family to Ji Huibao.
If the Huo family is a group of people with black eyes,
So Zuo Jiqian's group of people are open-eyed and thoughtful Hanhan,
Even if he has been removed from all positions, who of these military leaders would dare to take him in?
After taking it in, is it you or he who calls the shots?
Therefore, it is not difficult to explain that Zuo Jiqian was so excited after seeing Zheng Fan, as a dead stock, he was very anxious!
He really wished he could sell it!
If you can't sell it, then you and the more than 200 Zuo family members around you will have to really run away to be a people's husband.
How do people earn meritorious service? How can the women, children, and children in the family be freed?
Do you rely on ten or twenty years of hard work?
Zuo Jiqian also knows why he is unsalable, for so many days, he has been slightly reserved at the beginning to the last oath, and he almost kowtowed to admit the lord, but those military leaders who had official positions larger and smaller than him in the past, still no one dared to accept them.
Zheng Fan, Zheng Fan can!
Zuo Jiqian is clear about Zheng Fan's background,
Although his clear background is wrong,
but
It doesn't matter anymore,
If the words north and south are reversed, there seems to be no difference.
It's no wonder that Zuo Jiqian is so low, Zheng Fan doesn't accept them anymore, and they have to really be people's husbands.
Zheng Fan stretched out his finger and pointed at Zuo Jiqian,
That Xu Wenzu's cronies naturally knew the intimate relationship between his lord and this Zheng Shoubei,
So he reminded:
"My lord, do you want them?"
In the tone, there was a hint of it.
The approximate meaning is: My own family, I won't cheat you, you will think about it.
Ah Ming and Siniang, who was disguised as a man, stood behind Zheng Fan, and they would not express their opinions.
Anyway, even if the lord brought Lu Bu back to the fortress, it would not be a headache for the two of them, and they would not be responsible for training, and they would even be quite happy to see Qi Cheng Blind Bei and Liang Cheng have a headache.
The relationship between the seven demon kings, aside from the laziness of the demon pill, the other six are more or less with the feeling of competing for favor in the harem.
Actually, Zheng Fan also thinks so, anyway, he doesn't train by himself, and he is very confident in the blind Bei and Liang Cheng.
The benefits of being a leader are here, you just need to know what to do next, not how to do it.
"I want it."
"Thank you, Brother Zheng, thank you, Lord Zheng!"
At this time, the group of Zuo family children behind Zuo Jiqian seemed to be a little unable to believe that they and others were really bought, and immediately came over excitedly to salute Zheng Fan across the fence.
To be honest, Zheng Fan was really a little embarrassed to accept their salute with peace of mind, a month ago, they were still his colleagues, stationed together in the fortress of Yan Kingdom, but now this is already the case.
Of course, it is difficult to be pitiful, because any emotions of people are limited, and they have long been consumed on the way back to Nanwangcheng from Yanjing.
It can only be said that
Under the tide of every great era, there will always be many poor people buried.
"Okay, since the adults want it, let the adults approve it."
"Good work." Zheng Fan said.
At this time, Siniang, who was standing behind Zheng Fan and was disguised, took the initiative to accompany the captain to call the clerk to do the formalities, and at the same time, Siniang gave the captain a money bag, which was gold.
The lieutenant was a little surprised, but still flattered to accept it.
This is the details, and it is also the experience of life, Zheng Fan will hesitate in the palace whether to give Wei Gonggong some money, but here in Siniang, who to give money, how much to give, she has a clear heart, in the end, she is the proprietress who has opened an unknown number of clubs.
At this moment, Zheng Fan walked to the fence where the Huo family was located.
Sometimes, you can't help but admire the long-term vision of a blind person, although it can seem strange to describe a blind person with a long-term vision.
But it is precisely because when the people of the Six Princes came to help build Cuiliu Castle, the blind man participated in the whole process and revised the construction plan, so the construction style of Cuiliu Fort is very strange.
The fort was fine, but a flat land was specially opened outside the fort and barracks were built.
Therefore, Cuiliu Fort can accommodate more people to live in, and if you can't live in the fort, you can still live outside, after all, Zheng Fan and others never thought that one day when the enemy army pressed the border, they would change the name of Cuiliu Fort to "Zheng Huibao".
Although the barracks have been built, and although the population ceiling has been raised, the blind north is not in a hurry to storm the peasant soldiers, which has long guessed that there will be elite soldiers of their own rank who will be sent to the door for free.
Therefore, after eating the two or three hundred people of Zuo Jiqian, Zheng Fan can also eat the seven hundred people of the Huo family.
Digestive problems, he doesn't care.
Oh, by the way, there seems to be a sand sculpture of the Huo family that provoked himself very awesomely?
When Zheng Fan walked back again, he found that the sand sculpture had been pressed to the ground by an old man with half a hundred hair, his face was swollen, and there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, so he should have been slapped twice.
After seeing Zheng Fan walking back, the old man continued to press the young man under him with one hand, put the other hand on his chest, and said very sincerely:
"Please take us."
The prestige of this old man should be very high, and the more than seven hundred Huo family members behind him immediately learned the old man's movements and saluted Zheng Fan.
The young man under the old man was still twisting his neck and glaring at Zheng Fan with an unconvinced face.
Zheng Fan believes that if he is not standing here at this time, if it is Liang Cheng instead,
Liang Chenghui walked over with a knife very indifferently, and hacked the two Huo family youths to death in front of everyone in the Huo family.
If it's a blind man standing here,
The blind man will laugh and say:
"Kill him yourself, or you will choose twenty of you to kill him at random."
And then one more sentence;
"Oh, if he kills himself, he'll kill thirty of you at random."
But Zheng Fan doesn't have this kind of bad taste, anyway, whether it is the people of the Zuo family or the Huo family, they will still be handed over to the blind man and Liang Cheng to transform in the end.
Why do you have to get your hands dirty?
"What's your name?"
"Back to the words of the adult, the sinner Huo Guang."
"........." Zheng Fan.
"Huo Guang?"
"It's Huo Guang, my lord, but if the adult likes it, the sinners can thank Lord Xie to change his name, and he will be called Huo Guang in the future."
"No, no, the name taken by my parents, what will I change, okay, you are ready to prepare, come with me later."
"Take it in, Lord Xie."
Huo Guangchang breathed a sigh of relief, his own family, in fact, did not worry about selling, many military leaders came here to take them down, but they were told by the clerk that they were not allowed.
When listening to their exchange, Huo Guang learned that this was actually what the chief soldier meant.
Obviously, this is the chief soldier of Nanwang City who is keeping himself and others for his cronies.
This is a good thing for the Huo family, it will be easier to earn military merit at least when following the cronies of the chief soldier, and at the same time, the probability of being pushed up as cannon fodder will be smaller.
submit
Glancing at the young children of the family,
This kid is a descendant, but his brain can't tell the difference, the Huo family is gone, what kind of temper is there?
…………
The number of troops exceeds the standard and does not comply with the rules;
But in front of connections, the rules are Qingling'er in the red tent, shouting "Selling your art, not selling your body".
Zheng Fan declined the kindness of the defenders of Nanwang City to send a hundred cavalry to escort him back to Cuiliu Fort, and at the same time, because Cuiliu Fort did not notify him in advance, he did not send barbarian cavalry over.
That's it
Zheng Shoubei took two people, one Ah Ming and one Si Niang, to escort nearly 1,000 prisoners to Cuiliu Fort.
Moreover, there is not the slightest shackle on these prisoners.
Zheng Fan rode on a horse, leisurely, and didn't seem to be worried at all about the "Great Chuxing Chen Shengwang".
Ah Ming and Si Niang rode behind.
The procession marched in an orderly manner,
The Zuo family is in front, the Huo family is behind, and even, they are automatically lined up, although they are not stepping forward, but at least they look orderly.
Their families are all controlled by the imperial court, and they can only rely on military exploits to gain freedom for their families, so the probability of escape is not high.
Because they still have bonds, because they still have hope.
Even if they want to run, where do they flee?
Fleeing to the land of Yanguo? Isn't that looking for death, let's first talk about whether you can pass the Jingnan Army of Yinlang County, and then there is an old man from Beifeng County in the mainland who is digging their roots there with a hoe.
Fleeing to the south?
It's not impossible if it were normal times, but these prisoners are not stupid, they are from the gate valve, naturally they are not stupid ordinary people, of course they know what His Majesty the Emperor is sending them here to do.
Let's not say that even if you give up your family and family to be free and flee to Qianguo, and then not long after, the army of Yan Kingdom came over again, so you still have a fart?
Actually, it's because they also know in their hearts that they also have a touch of pride in being a Yan person, or ...... Be confident, it's not that you still have a sense of belonging to the emperor and the country after the family is broken, that's really nonsense, but there is one thing they believe, that is, the Zhenbei Army has been transferred out of Beifeng County, and it is destined to go south to fight the Qianguo, this Qianguo people...... Can you eat and live?
Of course, nothing is absolute.
Especially Zuo Jiqian's appearance, perhaps because Zheng Fan was too influenced by the old version of "Three Kingdoms", he always felt that Zuo Jiqian was a little bit likely.
But Zheng Fan is not worried, he can detect some anyway, and the blind man can naturally detect it.
However, Zheng Fan didn't like this atmosphere very much.
As soon as I woke up, I was in the land of Dayan, the beginning was here, and after getting used to the customs here, there would always be a little feeling, plus although Yan was contemptuously called Yan Barbarian by the other three countries, Yan was indeed different from the Liaojin Yuanqing in the history that he was familiar with, you can say that it was not so cultured, but he was really not so barbaric, at least Zheng Fan, was able to substitute for it.
But now, with the beginning of the horse step valve and the barbaric and primitive atmosphere that permeates this country, it begins to become more and more intense.
"Guess what's on your mind right now?" Ah Ming said to Siniang.
"In hypocrisy, it's like a poet walking on the sidelines, there will always be countless sorrows."
"Do you have to write poetry down there?"
"That's the problem, the poems that the Lord can memorize, we can also memorize, and he can't copy the pleasure."
"Yes."
"Actually, the Lord is really pitiful, when I was at home, I was ravaged by you, I went to the capital, and I was educated by Jingnanhou again."
"You're habitually taking yourself out again."
"At the very least, I can bring some comfort to the Lord, can you?"
"........." Ah Ming.
"Actually, I've been wondering, wouldn't it be better if we woke up in Qianguo?"
Ah Ming smiled when he heard Siniang's words,
Road:
"Copying poems, drawing...... The lord should not be bad, pretending to be a literati and a scholar, it is really not good, go to the imperial examination, take your time, at least be able to fireworks in your left hand and a black gauze official hat in your right hand. ”
"Yes, that kind of day can also be a lot of fun, and I can also concentrate on raising thin horses in Xiahang."
"Then after the lord has made a name for himself, he will earn money while going up the court, and then train a new army."
"Well, it's the rhythm."
"Then, the lord led the army to the Northern Expedition with the hope of the whole great cadre, and here, on this border line, I met the Marquis of Zhenbei and the Marquis of Jingnan, and met the current Dayan?"
"Hiss........."
Siniang suddenly felt that the picture was too beautiful, so beautiful that it was suffocating, and then it was gone.
"Although the most moving tragedy in the world is a tragedy, probably no one wants the end of their life to be a tragedy."
"Yes."
Siniang suddenly thought of something at this time, and said:
"There's something I'm a little confused about."
"Say."
"In these days in the capital, the Lord slept alone every night."
"After experiencing that family education, although it looks like it's okay, the mood swings of the Lord are still relatively large, and it is inevitable that there will be no such interest and mood, right?"
Ah Ming: This is analyzing from a man's point of view.
"Whew, I understand that."
"Yes, you should understand."
"But, didn't you notice?"
"Found what?"
"In these days in the capital, although I have been busy collecting the bodies of the Tian family and setting up graves, I still have a lot of spare time."
"Well, and then what?"
"Did the Lord shoot you?"
"............" Ah Ming.
Ah Ming's gaze suddenly froze.
"You see what I mean, right?"
"Understood."
Ah Ming was about to ride a horse to catch up with Zheng Fan in front, but he was grabbed by Siniang next to him.
"What are you going to do?"
"Care about the Lord's body and mood, chat more with the Lord, and do your duty as a subordinate."
"Don't worry."
"You're not in a hurry?"
"I'm in a hurry, but I'll have to wait."
"Why?"
"Because I think the Lord is deliberately ...... this time Guard against us. ”
