Chapter 68: The Husband's Generosity
Dou County planted a lot of crops during spring ploughing, and when the thieves came, as long as they survived, it was enough, whether it was vegetable leaves or rhizomes, they could be used as food and could survive.
Cauliflower is one of them.
The thieves have not come, the crops are thriving, and now the outside of Dou County is looking at a golden patch, and a bumper harvest is in sight.
Wu Ya'er interrupted the dream of a good harvest.
"Now the soldiers and horses are all listening to orders in the imperial court." "We're going to have to figure out how to do it," he said. ”
Hearing the previous sentence, Jiang Ming thought it was a refusal, and the next sentence Wu Ya'er showed his attitude, although the soldiers and horses obeyed the orders of the court, he could still call the shots, which means that this matter can be discussed.
Jiang Ming leaned over and saluted: "Uncle is right, of course you have to be cautious about major matters in the imperial court." ”
This is called uncle, Wu Ya'er smiled and called Wang Li to take Jiang Ming to retreat and rest, watching Jiang Ming leave, the quiet hall suddenly made a noise.
Lao Hu was the first to jump up and shout out the swear words that everyone wanted to say just now.
"Do you think it's a mule, a cow or a horse?" He followed Jiang Ming's appearance, crooked his mouth and bit his tongue, "Borrow three thousand soldiers for one." ”
"How did she open her mouth?" A man also frowned and was displeased, "We don't expose her and already give face, she has to make inches." ”
"This is relying on the eldest mother in their hands." The other man said coldly, his eyes vicious.
Some people don't comment and only propose solutions: "Borrow it, borrow it, just go there to kill them and rescue the eldest mother." ”
The house was chaotic, Wu Ya'er did not speak and only looked down at the open letter, the beautiful small characters were different from the previous writing, the beginning did not write the weather, nor did he describe in detail what flowers bloomed and what birds flew, probably there was no time to consider, only hurriedly and simply wrote that the soldiers and horses in the first war of the Guangzhou Mansion were insufficient, the loyal thief army of Xi'an in Zhejiang was strong, and Huainan Province observed that half of the soldiers and horses were thieves.
"Although my mother and I look forward to reuniting with our husband day and night, we don't want to be defeated and flee in panic and get together.
Okay, Wu Ya'er put down the letter, and the coercion and temptation are all put out, and it is bound to be eyed by the tiger.
"Give her three thousand soldiers and horses." He said.
The noisy hall was quiet for a moment, and then noisy.
"We only brought five thousand soldiers and horses." Lao Hu shouted, "Why give her more than half of it?" ”
Wu Ya'er said: "She is my wife? ”
Lao Hu was choked, glared and shouted and looked out and lowered his voice: "She is insatiable, she treats us as big households, she wants our soldiers and horses to grab land for her..."
"It's for me, too." Wu Ya'er corrected him, "She is Mrs. Wu Shao, we are husband and wife, what do you and I do." ”
So her territory is also his.
The men in the hall sat down and forgot about it for a moment, but so many soldiers and horses were scattered out at once.....
Lao Hu snorted: "She really dares to ask for it, if she gets our soldiers and horses, she can still sleep at night?" ”
"She thought that if the soldiers and horses were given to her, it would be hers?" Some men disdainfully.
Wu Ya'er said: "If she dares to ask for it, I will dare to give it, it's nothing, let's get familiar with our territory first." ”
Mrs. Wu Shao's is still Master Wu's in the end, and the men look at each other and laugh.
"It's just like this, we don't have many soldiers and horses." A man frowned, "Our form in the capital is also grim. ”
Wu Ya'er smiled: "We don't have many Zhenwu troops, there are still Tianping, Wuning, Wei Bo, and Zhaoyi tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the capital, all of them are soldiers and horses of the Son of Heaven, what do you and I have." ”
......
......
A team of soldiers and horses drove out of Gwangju Mansion, looking at the more women in the team wrapped in black umbrellas, the people on the road were surprised, curious and restrained, they had been with this young lady for a short time, and they couldn't be as affectionate as the people of Dou County.
Is Mrs. Wu leaving? The people were a little apprehensive, and when they looked at the rear, the soldiers and horses around Gwangju had not decreased, and the banners of the Jinmu Army fluttered fiercely.
Maybe the young lady is back to Dou County, the young lady's mother-in-law is still in Dou County, Dou County is very stable, and some rich and noble families in the city secretly went to Dou County.
The people speculated and watched, and there was no crying to stop Mrs. Wu from leaving.
Although the prefect of Gwangju was crying in his heart, he did not do it on the outside, although he knew that Mrs. Wu was not returning to Dou County.
Mrs. Wu told him that he was going to inspect Huainan Road to see what the thieves were like.
"You don't have to see it to know this kind of thing." The prefect made a final effort to persuade, "It's too dangerous." ”
"The thieves are not destroyed, and there is no real safe place in Huainan Road." Li Minglou said to the prefect that everyone knows the truth.
What else can the prefect say, he is not very familiar with this young lady Wu, so he gritted his teeth ruthlessly: "There are too few people to bring, let's bring more soldiers and horses." ”
When he said this, his heart was clenched, and his eyes were still a little sour, he didn't dare to guarantee that he would not cry when Mrs. Wu agreed.
Mrs. Wu's voice was like heaven: "No, there are fewer people, it is more convenient to explore the road." ”
It's a pity that this is a woman, I can't hold my head and cry, the prefect stretched out his hand and hugged his fist with tears: "Young lady, please take care." ”
Li Minglou also thanked him politely, and pointed to Yuan Ji: "Please also ask the adults to help him train the soldiers and calm the people, now there is no hope for reinforcements, we can only be self-reliant, and use the people to raise the soldiers and the soldiers to support the people, just like Dou County." ”
Yuanji did not follow this trip, and stayed in Gwangju Mansion to take care of all affairs, although he was reluctant but knew that the matter was important, he would definitely guard the stable and prosperous rear for the young lady.
If they can't do it like Dou County, these people will leave Gwangju Mansion and return to Dou County, of course the prefect has no objection: "Young lady, rest assured, all the affairs of soldiers and horses are in charge of him." ”
Li Minglou no longer had any worries and turned the horse's head and gave an order, the forwards went first, the left and right rear surrounded, and the group galloped, and Fang Er followed closely with the umbrella in his hand and always covered Li Minglou's head.
At the same time, there was also a group of people and horses galloping in Dou County, there were not many people wearing military uniforms, and there were many horses and mules, pulling carts and piling up high and covered with linoleum cloth, creaking and clanging on the road.
Wei Rongwei County Commander stood on the city gate and watched, his expression relieved and solemn.
"Lord Wei, is the young lady asking for so much baggage for the house?" An official asked on the side, a little disdainful, "Gwangju Mansion is so big, is there nothing in the official warehouse?" ”
There are a few official warehouses like them in Dou County who have been stuffing all kinds of materials day and night for several months, and Wei County Ling Twist did not laugh at the Gwangju Mansion, but had a little pity from above: "It's very good to be able to hold on until the young lady goes to save the city, don't expect them to be able to support their families." ”
However, these heavy cars are very sturdy, and they look like they are going to go a long way..... The young lady doesn't say, he doesn't ask, just give what you want, you have to concentrate on doing things, don't think too much.
......
......
As the sun rises and sets, before nightfall, the marching procession stops by a river, and the soldiers and horses begin to set up camp, and each of them begins to work according to their own division of labor, digging ditches and pitching tents, building stoves for cooking, and spreading iron nets and dark lines, and the whole camp is busy but not chaotic, and soon the smoke is bursting, the fire is sparkling, and the aroma of boiling soup and dried meat spreads, like stars falling from the sky in the desolate night.
"It used to be a thriving place." One of the scouts pointed in several directions, "There are a lot of villages over there. ”
But now there are no lights and people in Siye, not like in the hinterland of the Central Plains, but in the desert.
The scenes seen along the way made everyone sigh tired, and cursed the thieves in a low voice, what kind of ability is it to harm the people.
Li Minglou wrapped in a cloak and stood at the top of the camp watching the darkening night.
Suddenly, the night lit up, first with stars, and then with a fiery dragon spreading across the land.
"Miss." Fang Er couldn't help but blurt out, his voice could not hide his excitement.
And the scouts in the camp added to the noise.
"The Zhenwu army in the capital is here!"
"Form 5 they're back!"
"Three thousand soldiers and horses!"
Really borrowed, Li Minglou's exposed eyes were as bright as stars.
"Shall we go and see?" Fang Er asked.
"Of course." Li Minglou hurried forward, his cloak and skirt flying, "The wine and meat camp tents are all ready." ”
This is Wu Ya'er's soldiers and horses, and they will be her soldiers and horses in the future, and now they are meeting in advance, of course, they must have good wine, good meat, and warm campfires, and they will be well entertained and familiar with each other.
