When I came to the camp of the Hedong thief army, I could hear bursts of mourning from the camp from a distance, presumably Luo Shiji, Qin Shixin and others were leading the soldiers in the camp to pay tribute to Zhang Guo and the dead soldiers. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Hey, it's really sad that Ambassador Zhang has been loyal all his life and ended up like this." Since seeing Zhang Guo, Li You can inquire about his previous experience, since Zhang Guo got the Jinshi, because he has neither heels nor money and bribes, and he doesn't know how to operate, so he was assigned to a remote evil county as a magistrate, if it is put on the ordinary Jinshi, it should be shouted that the court is unfair, but Zhang Guo did not have the slightest resignation, and took office directly.

When he was the magistrate of the county, he cleaned up the county government, dealt with the local bullies, personally trained the soldiers to hand over the mountain bandits, and in a few years, a county where the people did not have a good life became a paradise for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and he was never left behind, but it was a pity that he offended his boss by serving the people wholeheartedly, and after the expiration of his term, he was not only not promoted but was also pushed to other lower counties.

Zhang Guo still did not complain, he once again started from scratch to sort out the endgame, and it took several years to regain the vitality of this place, if he was transferred to the county governor of the three places again and again, Zhang Guo was only slightly promoted to the first level, and she also acted in general in the future, every place she was dedicated to the people, building water conservancy, suppressing the strong, and judging the case fairly, after many years of stumbling, he became the prefect of Nanyang, and at the same time, there were people who did the post of Shangshu among the Jinshi in the high school of the same year as him.

This Zhang Guo is not only good at civil affairs, but also easy to lead the troops to fight, Nanyang's rotten government soldiers have greatly changed in his hands, after subduing Luo Shiji and Qin Shixin and other good talents, he eliminated the old and weak, cleaned up the empty paid officers, and personally trained the troops, so that the Nanyang government army became far beyond the existence of the forbidden army.

Taking the opportunity of Tang Kuo's invasion of King Qin, Zhang Guo finally appeared in the eyes of the princes of the imperial court, and was regarded by Wei as the ambassador of Hedong to fight against thieves, and after accepting the troops arranged by the Ministry of War, the Hedong thief army expanded to 30,000 people, and he relied on these soldiers and horses to exterminate the troubled people who had harassed the four prefectures of Hedong for a long time in less than a year under the constraints of many officials.

If it is in terms of ability, Zhang Guo is actually more qualified to serve as the prime minister than Yang Jiefu, but it is a pity that in this world, a talent like him is destined to not have a good end.

"Please let me know, Li You and his soldiers came to pay homage to Gong Zhang." Li You did not mention his official title, but directly reported his name, and the soldiers guarding the camp welcomed them into the camp with tears in their eyes.

This kung fu, Luo Shiji and Qin Shixin have already built a simple mourning hall, which not only contains Zhang Guo's spiritual position, but also the names of countless soldiers who died last night.

Countless soldiers knelt outside the mourning hall, and the wails reached the clouds, Qin Shixin and Luo Shiji's eyes were red and swollen, and their lips were chapped, presumably from early in the morning to now, when they saw Li You coming over, they hurriedly greeted him, "Jiazhou Bo is here, and I am grateful to the thief army in Hedong." ”

Li You came to Zhang Guoling under their guidance, and took Xu Guang and others to bow to the incense, "...... Dazai Zhang Gong, loyal to the sun, thin and cloudy, mainstay, turning the tide...... For any locality, the government is connected to the ...... led the troops to swing the Kou, and the four governments clarified..... It is a pity that the sky has no eyes, and it is difficult for loyalty to be defeated; hated the court and was placed in the ...... of traitors May Zhang Gong be in the spirit of heaven, bless my Great Wei Cangsheng, drive out the northern captives and restore the glory of the past...... Woohoo lament, Shang Fang! ”

This sacrificial text was written by Li You in a hurry, although the literary style is average, but the true feelings are undoubtedly revealed, and the soldiers of the Hedong thief army all tears are like rain when they hear it, and they all kneel down to return the salute, and thank Li You and others for their deep affection.

At the end of the worship, Luo Shiji introduced Li You and Xu Guang into the tent to rest, and the rest of the soldiers also had special personnel to entertain them, although the conditions were simple, but under Luo Shiji's arrangement, everything seemed to be in order, and the two of them were introduced to the seats, and Luo Shiji bowed down again, "Thank you for still thinking about my family at this time." ”

"Lord Zhang is really a model for my generation, and it is also the right thing to come to worship, I think there is not much food and grass in Brother Luo's camp, I will arrange someone to send it later, and I hope Brother Luo will not refuse." Now the Hedong thief army is almost equivalent to tearing up the face with the imperial court, so Li You does not care about causing criticism, and said directly, "In addition, there are other items needed for the ceremony, I also ordered people to look around, today to worship Zhang Gong first, and in the future, when the northern captives are defeated and Zhang Gong's bones are returned, they will be buried thickly." ”

"Everything is according to what the lord said." Luo Shiji didn't be too polite, and immediately responded, now the Beiyu is still not far away, Li You doesn't have time to talk nonsense to him, seeing that he agreed, he continued, "Now that the Hedong thief army has suffered heavy losses, and the Beiyu army is close at hand, Brother Luo can't be immersed in mourning, and he has to make arrangements; I have decided to temporarily retreat twenty miles to re-camp and find another opportunity to fight against the Beiyu, I wonder what Brother Luo's plans are? Li saw what could help. ”

"Now that Lord Zhang has just passed, the thoughts of the officers and soldiers in the army are turbulent, so they can only make plans after the ceremony and convene the generals to discuss the matter, and there will be results in these two days." Luo Shiji replied truthfully, "But please rest assured, the lord has already sent a horse detective to guard the surroundings, and he will not let the northern captives get cheap." ”

Luo Shiji didn't say that he wanted to take refuge in Li You, but he also heard a little meaning from it, originally according to the general process, the commander of the first army passed away, the first thing was to prepare to report to the imperial court, and let the imperial court arrange the next commander, but logical thinking did not have this intention at all, thinking that Zhang Guo's matter had completely disappointed him and the Hedong thief army, and they had no intention of returning to the control of the imperial court.

"It's so good, then I'll stay one more day, and if the northern captives take the opportunity to attack, it's good to have a response." Li You nodded and said, after speaking, he and Xu Guang came out of the tent to help Luo Shiji and Qin Shixin do some things to preside over the ceremony and welcome the guests; It's a pity that the surrounding officials seem to have already gotten the news, and no one rushed to worship; On the contrary, the surrounding people heard that someone had died in the battle with the northern captives, and they came to mourn one after another.

was busy until dark, and seeing that no one would come again, Li You and the others said goodbye and left; After they left, Qin Shixin and Luo Shiji gathered the remaining officers and staff of the Hedong Thief Army, and began to discuss the way out of this army overnight. (To be continued.) )
