Chapter 477: Zhang Erhu, the official of one hundred households
"The general reputation and Sha Yuan have failed the grace of God, made themselves snakes, gathered people to rebel, and did not kill them is not enough to anger the people, and it is not enough to warn the world. But not all the people under his command are big women who do great evil. At present, Luzon, Liaodong, and Jiaozhi are all short of manpower, so it is better to spare their lives and exile them to open up the wasteland. One is to show the mercy of Long Live and to avoid the loss of labor, killing two birds with one stone."
Wang Chengen pondered for a moment and said what he thought.
"It makes sense, but this Sha Dinghai reined in the precipice this time, made meritorious contributions, and helped the soldiers of the Qianguo State to quell the rebellion without bloodshed, which is a great credit. And at the beginning, the Duke of Qianguo had promised to spare his family's life. I can't kill it."
"The Duke of Qianguo just said that he would spare his life, but he didn't say that he would be pardoned for his crimes..."
"Then it's all going to Luzon to open up the wasteland! You send a message to Mu Tianbo, so that he can be close and distant according to the size of these people's sins. All of them were escorted back to Yunnan, those who should be killed were killed, and those who should be exiled were exiled. Sha Yuan's family will do what they say, and the general reputation family will not leave a living."
"Yes, hooray."
"Why hasn't there been any news from Xu Zhi'an's side in the last two days? Haven't launched an attack on the Nguyen clan yet?"
"Count the days, and the Inspector is almost here. It is estimated that a general attack on the Nguyen clan will be launched in just one or two days."
"You send him another message, tell him not to be fast, but to be steady. Do not use firearms sparingly, so as to reduce the casualties of soldiers as much as possible."
"Yes, hooray."
After arranging these things, Zhu Youzhen stood up and walked out.
Although the capital is located in the north, the climate has also begun to warm up.
Occasionally, he would go out for a walk, and the architecture of the capital still didn't change much, but it seemed to be more lively than when he first arrived.
The streets are full of pedestrians, and it is often a scene of prosperity.
Every time he left the palace, he would go to Xiaohua's stall to sit down.
Since Zhang Erhu went to the border, the smile on Xiaohua's face seems to have decreased a lot.
On two occasions, when Zhu You arrived, he saw her sitting on a stool in a daze.
In the end, she is a teenage girl, and she says that she supports her sweetheart to make contributions, but the thoughts in her heart always inevitably appear on her face.
Sometimes Zhu Youzhen felt distressed, so he asked her if she would simply transfer Zhang Erhu back to Beijing to work, anyway, with him, there would always be a knighthood or something. But they were all firmly rejected by Li Xiaohua. Because she knows Zhang Erhu too well, relying on nepotism, even if it is a marquis and a prime minister, it is not what he wants.
In this regard, Zhang Erhu, who was born as a tenant, seems to have more self-esteem than others.
"Daddy~"
The crisp cry interrupted Zhu Youzhen's thoughts, and without looking back, he knew that it was his son Zhu Cihong.
He turned around and saw him running in his direction with a soccer ball in his arms.
"Ouch, Your Highness, run slowly, the ground is slippery~" Wang Chenen greeted Zhu Cihong as soon as he saw it, the ground in the palace had just been sprinkled and swept over, and it was wet, but it was not slippery.
Wang Chengen likes Zhu Cihong very much, not only because he is Zhu Youzhen's eldest son, the future prince, the future emperor, but also this little guy who is really likable.
"Daddy, are you done with your business? Play football with me for a while, won't you?" Zhu Cihong took Wang Chengen's hand and came to Zhu Youzhen, and asked with a raised face.
Zhu Youzhen stretched out his hand and hugged Zhu Cihong, pinched his face and asked:
"How do you know Daddy is free at this time?"
"My mother said, it's not good for your waist to sit all the time. I thought Daddy was sitting there all day, and he had to get up and move from time to time."
"Haha!"
Zhu Youzhen was amused and hugged Zhu Cihong down the steps.
"Wang Banban, go and call a few more people, let's move together."
"Yes, hooray."
Wang Chengen left with a smile on his face.
It didn't take long for laughter to echo in the empty sky.
At this time, Changning Lake, more than a thousand miles away, came in one hundred
The cavalry of men was drinking horses by the lake.
At the head was a teenager who looked to be less than twenty years old.
The young man's shoulders are big and his waist is round, his thick eyebrows and eyes, the bridge of his nose is straight, and his thick lips are only pursed at this time.
At this time, he was a little dusty, but it was still not difficult to see the fortitude on his face.
If Li Xiaohua is here, he will definitely be able to recognize it at a glance, this is his sweetheart who has been haunted by his dreams for many days, Zhang Erhu.
"Boss, I have won a lot this time, and I have made meritorious service again!" A young man about his age approached him and said with a smile.
"Let my share be given to the dead brethren." Zhang Erhu said with a smile.
They were ordered by the above to exterminate the horse thieves who had been entrenched outside, the number of the other party was not large, but there was no trace, Zhang Erhu led people to go around the Gobi Desert for many days before intercepting them, and after paying more than a dozen soldiers for casualties, they were all annihilated.
There are more than 80 heads in total, and there are naturally a lot of military achievements.
But the death of his comrades who got along day and night in front of him still made him a little sad.
"Boss, don't you often say that it is fate for a soldier to die on the battlefield, and the horse to wrap the corpse. Why are you still sad?"
"Horse Leather Shroud..."
"Yes, yes, Shroud of Horse Leather. Don't care about the shroud, if you go to the battlefield, you will either die or I will live, I originally thought that I would just mess around like this, and maybe one day I would become a deserter.
But it's different when you come. Follow you, even if you die, you are willing! You ask these brethren, which one doesn't think so? We've already discussed it, if you don't want your share of the reward, we don't want it either. Take them all out and give them to the families of the brothers who died in battle!"
"You guys... Let's go, go back to Kannai."
Zhang Erhu didn't say anything more, turned over his horse, and took the lead towards the Guannei.
In the past two years, the life of ordinary soldiers has been better, but the more remote the area, the more bitter it is, and even Zhu Youzhen cannot solve this problem in a short time. But fortunately, more and more military cadets have entered the grassroots level, and his control is gradually strengthening.
The place where Zhang Erhu took office this time was the Muyangchuan Hexi Fort under the jurisdiction of Yongchangwei, a desolate, dilapidated place, and there were not many people.
And his position is a hundred household officials.
This is the assignment of military cadets, but it should not be him, the honor student who ranks first in all grades every year.
Zhang Erhu was also surprised, but he was not annoyed.
He knew that this must be the arrangement of His Majesty the Emperor, and since it was His Majesty's arrangement, it must have his deep meaning.
Since he has a deep meaning, then he doesn't need to think about it so much, just do what he should do well.
The army and the military academy are two completely different places, here he learned a lot of things that he could not learn in the military school, the wind and sand blew his face a little rougher, but also a lot more mature.
Thinking of Li Xiaohua, who was waiting for him to go back in Beijing, Zhang Erhu's somewhat depressed mood rose again.
"Drive!"
