Chapter 114: Hitting the Grass Valley is in Danger
Chen Letian knows that there are some things that cannot be said and cannot be said.
His thoughts, influenced by unknown letters, can be said to be very different from those of today.
For example, he felt that loving someone did not necessarily mean that he had to be married, because no one could have expected the quarrel in the siege after marriage. So whether you can get married or not, as long as you have given each other happiness, it is enough.
I am afraid that only people who have reached the realm of Li Xuantong and Wang Chongyang can understand one or two.
Therefore, Chen Letian revealed a little bit of something out of place, and the general was enlightened, but the general Li Rongsheng said directly, I can't understand it for the time being, you have to convince me first, and then you can try it in front of the emperor.
Nine times out of ten, the emperor will behead you after listening to your absurd words.
Chen Letian said with a smile: "Don't talk about this, general, let's drink more wine and talk more about the Firearms Research Institute, this is the most important thing for us at the moment, come, do it!"
In the afternoon, Li Rongsheng handed over the gifts brought by the robes to Chen Letian, and Chen Letian opened the heavy burden and couldn't help laughing. They were all kinds of dim sum, osmanthus cakes, sorghum cakes, and pancakes, most of which had been bumped in the road, and they must have been captured on the battlefield.
Li Rongsheng said with a smile: "Your brothers in the army are really affectionate to you, my personal soldiers sent news back and forth, they know, I have to beg my personal soldiers to bring things to you, if it is not for the change of horses and not the change of people, it will be bad to send it to you, you can eat quickly, it will be really bad if you leave it for a few days." ”
Chen Letian grabbed a few bites casually, felt that the taste was really good, and said with a smile: "Let's share it with everyone, I can eat whatever I want in Beijing." As he spoke, Chen Letian gave the dim sum to the two soldiers who beat him with a military stick and let them eat it separately.
These snacks were snatched from the bandits when the robes were fighting in the grass valley, and he estimated that if there were such snacks in the side plug, they must have stepped on a relatively large bandit den.
The general said: "That's right, he can be called a bandit, and Xiaohu was also injured a lot." ”
Chen Letian frowned slightly, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "I think I have to change the matter of hitting the grass valley." ”
Li Rongsheng said: "It's time to change it, the risk is getting bigger and bigger, last year, the Northern Army killed more than a dozen people just by fighting the grass valley, and the bandits were killed by our Northern Army for more than ten years, losing tens of thousands of lives, and they are getting better and better." Not only our Northern Army, but also the Southern Army and the Naval Division have also suffered a lot of casualties in the face of bandits in recent years. ”
Chen Letian said: "I don't understand your above things, I only know that in the Northern Army, the difficulty of us going out to fight Grass Valley is more than a year." The bandits are getting more and more powerful, we don't care, no one cares about them, Wei and Liang have never sent troops to suppress bandits, and I don't know what their emperor thinks. ”
In the past few decades, the world has been peaceful, bandits have begun to breed again, and the people in the border city have been miserable, especially the people in the border cities of Wei and Liang, if it were not for the clear laws of Wei and Liang, the people in the border cities are not allowed to move without reason, and the border cities would have been empty long ago.
Even in the border cities of the Great Song Dynasty, which are famous for being as rich as other countries, the people tried their best to use study tours as an excuse to move inward, which shows how much harm the rebellion in the border cities did to the people.
For a long time, it was the Great Song Dynasty that sent troops to play a role in maintaining stability. When the banditry was serious, when there was a bandit nest with too much power, the commander of the Great Song Dynasty would go to the imperial court to clear it, and the imperial court would allow it, and then the Great Song army would march into the desert or the mountains to suppress the bandits.
At this time, Wei and Liang would send troops to strengthen their defenses, for fear that the Great Song army would attack them. In fact, except for the Northern Army, the other Song armies would not attack Wei Liang without the Holy Decree at all.
Only the Northern Army often attacked the border cities of Weiliang without warning.
Once, after the general Li Rongsheng was rebuked by the holy decree for this, he wrote a letter to defend himself: This is a soldier's trickery, and I hope that the saint will approve it.
The saint took Li Rongsheng's letter and smiled angrily at the eunuchs beside him: "Let me give him permission to make his own claims?
Then the next day, the Holy Decree rewarded Li Rongsheng with one tael of silver as a reward.
Then this matter became a joke, and General Li Rongsheng beat the neighboring countries by the way while suppressing the bandits, and only received a reward of one or two silver.
The courtiers who were not accustomed to Li Rongsheng's style applauded, and the ministers who liked Li Rongsheng wrote books to question it. But the saint, it seems that this matter has turned the page and will not be mentioned again.
After that, Li Rongsheng completely let go of his hands and feet, and almost every time he led the northern army to suppress the bandits, he had to scratch Wei Liang.
For the increasing cunning and ingenuity of the bandits, the general has long begun to think about it. The general considered the situation of the whole world, and Chen Letian considered it from the perspective of the Northern Army.
Although the bandits are extremely weak compared to the state now, the situation in the world cannot change forever, and the country cannot remain strong forever.
A country is the same as a person, there are always times when you get sick. Well, once the opportunity is exploited, the bandits may take advantage of the situation to become bigger and stronger, and it is not impossible to overthrow a surname.
The example in front of you: The current emperor of Wei was raised to the throne by the largest green forest force in Wei at that time more than a hundred years ago.
Therefore, Li Rongsheng, the soul of the Northern Army, needs to make long-term preparations, try to make the Great Song Dynasty less sick, or, try not to let bandits with too much power appear on the border.
Chen Letian felt that Xiaohu's injury was definitely not light, and if the injury came out of the general's mouth, it was really serious. Without him Chen Letian, although none of the nine of them are fuel-efficient lamps, Chen Letian is still worried that when he is there, he will arrange everything to minimize the danger as much as possible.
The absolute and most resolute implementation, everything is foreseen, and the purpose of failure is abandoned.
Whether there is a harvest or not is not the most important thing, not letting your own side suffer casualties is the first point that should be observed in Grass Valley.
The life of a bandit is dirt, and the life of a soldier of the Northern Army is gold.
Seeing that Chen Letian didn't listen, the general waved his hand and said, "I will consider this matter, I don't need you to bother." Your immediate priority now is to accomplish your goal of becoming the number one cultivator in the world as soon as possible. is the first in the world, you will continue to return to the Northern Army, be your captain, and go back to your old job, so that I can return to my hometown as soon as possible and live an easier life. ”
Chen Letian said with a bitter face: "The goal of being the first in the world, I think it may be achieved in the next life, so don't hold up hope." ”
With that, the two of them laughed out loud at the same time. The sound of laughter was heard a mile or two away. When the Wang Shilang of the Ministry of Rites in the courtyard next door heard Li Rongsheng's familiar laughter, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "I don't know what good things have happened, it's so noisy!
