Come to the Frontier
The Meng family was thinking about why Meng Saburo wanted to go to the frontier, but they couldn't figure it out if they wanted to realize it, so they put it down for the time being. I can only wait for Meng Saburo to go home and then continue to ask. So what is Meng Saburo doing at this time?
When Meng Saburo heard that he was going to the frontier in the afternoon, he was a little at a loss for a while, and he didn't know what to do. But the words have already been spoken, and his father and Lord Lin are also there, so it is difficult to change his words at this moment. Moreover, Meng Saburo has always been haunted by his dreams and wants to avoid them for the time being. Because I don't know what to do for the time being, especially how to face my second brother and second sister-in-law.
It wasn't until I got in the carriage on the frontier and said goodbye to Daddy Meng and Uncle Ma that I started to set off, and I suddenly realized that I was really going to the frontier, I didn't know what the situation was like in the frontier, after all, this was the first time I left home, and I was a little melancholy in an instant. Thinking about going to the frontier by himself, he never appeared in a dream, and at this time Meng Saburo really distinguished the dream from reality.
This trip to the frontier is a rapid march, and it is necessary to deliver this batch of materials and recipes as soon as possible to alleviate the plight of the frontier. You must know that if you delay for a day, the soldiers of the frontier will be hungry for a day. So that little melancholy, with the bumps on the carriage, the rush on the road disappeared.
At first, I was still in the mood to look at the scenery on the road, and I was not too tired to sit in the carriage all the way.
As the journey got longer and longer, Meng Saburo was a little tired of seeing the unchanged scenery at this moment. Most of the people on the road were in a hurry, and there was no time for small talk, and they didn't know each other. By the time it was time to rest, everyone else was already exhausted, and at this time I just thought of taking a good rest as soon as possible to relieve my fatigue.
So in the first few days of the road, Meng Saburo was sitting in the carriage, and the road was relatively flat at first, but slowly the road began to be bumpy, which made Meng Saburo very unaccustomed, firstly, no one spoke, and secondly, he was a little homesick at this time. Thinking about it now, how did you think of coming to the frontier? I don't know what I thought at the time.
But now that it's on the way, even regrets are futile. Meng Saburo saw that everyone else was in a hurry at this time, and he was embarrassed to ask for anything else.
On the way to the road, I once encountered a very rough road, the ox cart could not pull the grain at all, and could only be carried by manpower.
Although Lin Wenjie told him to take good care of Meng Saburo on the road, Saburo himself knew his own affairs, and he was not a rich young master, so he couldn't be indifferent. encountered a predicament, and also helped to carry the food forward together.
The big guy saw the young man's performance, and slowly became familiar with Meng Saburo, Meng Saburo himself is also able to speak well, and now seeing that they are willing to take care of themselves, it didn't take a few days to call this group of people brothers.
Meng Saburo really didn't want to sit in the carriage alone, when he had the strength, he followed the group, and when he was really tired and couldn't stand it, he lay down on the grain on the ox cart to rest, and his own carriage let the people who really couldn't walk get on the car to rest.
Among this group of people, most of them have been soldiers and fought wars, so they can also ride horses, Meng Saburo has never touched horses before, and he is very envious of them for riding horses, and his companions have seen it, and when the road is relatively flat and the weather is good, he will occasionally teach Meng Saburo how to ride a horse.
A man's direct friendship is built so quickly, you help me, I help you. A group of people supported each other in this way, and finally arrived at the frontier. Meng Saburo didn't know that the group of people he was making friends with now was the generals of General Lin's family. Later, these people also became good partners on their business road, leading this group of people to create a miracle.
Meng Saburo and Huang Gaizhong, the leader of this group, are now very familiar. Meng Saburo was attracted by Huang Gaizhong's ability, and Huang Gaizhong just took care of Meng Saburo because of Lin Wenjie's entrustment, and later learned that the recipes for these tofu were provided by the Meng family, so he really treated them with his heart, because this recipe of the Meng family can save many frontier soldiers and allow the Lin family to survive this difficulty.
Both have a good relationship, so it comes naturally.
Speaking of Huang Gaizhong, he is also a legendary figure. At that time, General Lin saw his country swaying in the wind and rain, and resolutely put down the pen in his hand and began to follow, thus saving the whole country from fire and water.
Huang Gaizhong was in the cottage, and he happened to intercept General Lin and his group who were rushing to the frontier at that time. General Lin's group of people was in a hurry, so they unfortunately fell into an ambush set up by Huang Gaizhong.
A group of people in Huang Gaizhong just began to think that General Lin and these people were a group of rich children, who did not learn and did not know how to learn, and wanted to teach them a hard lesson.
Later, when I learned that these people were going to the frontier to defend their country, I was greatly shocked and touched, especially after learning that General Lin was still a famous scholar, I immediately admired General Lin very much, and I was very ashamed of my use of tricks to ambush this group of people.
When the first emperor was there, the taxes were too heavy, and the income was not enough to pay taxes, resulting in many places selling children and daughters, and they were really scared by the imperial court, so they became robbers.
General Lin also knew that this group of people was forced to embark on this road of no return, so he persuaded them that they could go down the mountain now, the first emperor had died, and the emperor who succeeded to the throne now would not have such heavy taxes. You can go back to your home and rebuild your home in peace, and now there is a repopulation count and land distribution everywhere. So I can take advantage of this time to go back with confidence. If you don't feel at ease, I can take you to the county office and say hello to the county magistrate here.
When Huang Gaizhong heard that this group of people was going to fight, they discussed with their brothers that they also wanted to fight together, as if they had been hiding all along. So if I wanted to follow General Lin, I went to the frontier together, and if I didn't want to follow, I disbanded and returned to my own home to start farming.
Later, after several years of hard work, the enemy was finally expelled, Huang Gaizhong also didn't like to fight every day, and he was alone, seeing that General Lin was going back to the capital, so he retired with General Lin and became the general of General Lin's family, and later gave birth to children in the Lin family. Completely became the Lin family.
This time, because the grain incident in the frontier was more serious, Princess Li Hui took Huang Gaizhong with her and was ready to send the grain to the frontier at any time.
Fortunately, although it was very cold this winter, there was not much rain on the way. Therefore, the soybeans and other grains are well preserved.
Some people in the capital are very curious about Princess Li Hui coming to Lin Wenjie's side and buying soybeans in other places, most of them think that the Lin family is doing the last dying struggle, but the people of Yin Xiang's faction are still suspicious of this matter, because they are afraid that there will be problems, so when Princess Li Hui began to buy soybeans, they soon sent people to Lin Wenjie's town. At this time, Meng Saburo and his group had already set off on the way to the frontier.
Fortunately, the Meng family has not made tofu to sell since Lin Wenjie took the recipe, so Lin Wenjie's plan has not been discovered by others for the time being.
But the people sent out by Yin Xiang still didn't believe that Lin Wenjie and Princess Li Hui had tossed for so long just to continue to buy soybeans, and there must be something they didn't know. The people who sent it out then sent a message to ask what should be done.
Yin Xiang was also very puzzled at this time, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the Lin family. But he didn't dare to relax for a moment, and the more he saw success, he couldn't relax his vigilance and continued to send more people to investigate.
The group of people sent by Yin Xiang traveled day and night, and finally caught up with Meng Saburo and his group who went to the frontier.
Because they were afraid of startling the grass and snakes, several spies took advantage of the fact that it was dark on the road at night, and when the people escorting the grain stopped to rest, they quietly went to check the grain and grass in the car. I found that except for some edible grains, the other bags were indeed full of soybeans, and there was nothing strange about it.
There were also some more vigilant people in this group who noticed that there were unknown people checking the food they were transporting, but there was no response. When he went to the frontier, Lin Wenjie once told these people that if there was danger at that time, the first protection would be Meng Saburo, and the second thing that needed to be protected was the formula. If someone grabs the formula, they will destroy it directly.
Why do you say that, because these formulas were written by Meng Saburo, so if the recipes are gone, people can do it.
At first, these people thought that no one would come, but they didn't expect to be on the border, but at this time, someone actually came. So they all pretended to be very tired and fell asleep.
The spies didn't find the key information, but they were unwilling, so they secretly followed the team. After about two days of following, I still didn't find anything strange happening, and at this time I really found out that this group of people was really just simply transporting food. And most of the soybeans were transported, so these spies did not destroy the grain.
However, these ups and downs in the town, as well as the things in the team, Meng Saburo didn't know, so sometimes it was a happy thing not to know. In this way, it took about 20 days to finally reach the frontier. When he came to the frontier, Meng Saburo saw the vast frontier here, and he was relieved of his previous dream. I can really let go and start over.
