100. High-end bureau
"Hey, Yuan County Order, what does this mean?"
In the middle of the night, on the street at the entrance of the mansion with two red lanterns,
Zhu Yuheng was followed by a group of neat knights, and he who had just turned over and mounted his horse, glanced down and glanced at Yuan Ji, the commander of Fushui County, who was sending him at the door.
Behind the middle-aged county magistrate, followed by a delicate lady wearing a hood, standing with her head bowed, not daring to look at people, holding a tray in both hands.
Yuan County Ling laughed:
"General Zhu, Chen Yuanwai learned that you were young, so you went out alone to fight for the country, I really admire, just at the dust washing banquet, full of wine and food, the general did not forget to wear the armor, wear this cold armor, and stay in the barracks overnight, the cold night is long, Chen Yuanwai is very worried, the general's body is important.
"So Chen Yuanwai sent the little girl in the family to come and send a warm autumn coat, and the weather is cold, I hope General Zhu will not be polite, although the general is heroic and cool, and Ling Zun has no crimes in autumn, he can fight for the country, and he can't be cold, the general is not cold, isn't it?"
Yuan County Ling Yao pointed to the end of East Street:
"Walking a hundred steps along the street, there is an elegant courtyard of Chen Yuanwai's house, the general can go there with Chen Xiaoniang to change clothes, if the size is not suitable, let Chen Xiaoniang make a closer judgment on the spot, and prepare a warmer and more suitable one for the general overnight, how so?
"This can be regarded as a little bit of the heart of all the officials and people in Fushui County, and I hope the general will accept it."
"Hahaha." Behind him, the drunken soldiers let out a burst of laughter.
Zhu Yuheng glanced at the middle-aged county magistrate who was standing under the red lantern and kept smiling, and then tilted his head to look at the delicate little lady behind him.
In her hand, a tray covered with red cloth placed a stack of silk clothes and a copper key.
Zhu Yuheng laughed.
Tonight is the third day that he led his army to take Fushui County without bloodshed.
Fushui County is the eastern gateway of Hongzhou, and now, Zhu Yuheng's vanguard army is stationed in this county, except for a small group of guys who are not long-eyed at the beginning, it almost does not cost a single soldier.
This Yuan County Commander is also very knowledgeable, and directly tied up the small guard sent by Cai Qin to dedicate it, and it came down very quickly, and tonight he even summoned the wealthy people and township sages in the county's jurisdiction to hold a lively reception banquet for Zhu Yuheng and other soldiers, and invited them to participate.
Originally, Zhu Yuheng was too lazy to come, military affairs were important, but he remembered some of his father's advice, so he came to drink a few glasses of wine, but he was also on guard, but now, it seems that he thought about it a little more.
His gaze swept over the delicate little lady wearing a hood, just looking at her figure, she could make the man temporarily ignore her appearance and turn off the lights.
Merely...... Chen Yuanwai's youngest daughter?
Zhu Yuheng thought of the pot-bellied old man who had just sat quite close at the banquet, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
He was a little speechless, you look like a fucking pig, and you can still give birth to such a delicate little daughter? Are you sure it's not the kind of king next door?
Sneering and sneering, whether this little lady was born to Chen Yuanwai or not, or was temporarily selected from the singer of the Qinglou, it doesn't matter; The attitude shown by Yuan Xianling, Chen Yuanwai and others, who are the representatives of the officials and people of Fushui County, is important, and Zhu Yuheng is quite satisfied.
"Forget it." Zhu Yuheng said lightly: "The last general is used to living on a wooden bed in the barracks, and he is not used to sleeping on a warm and soft couch." ”
Yuan Xianling nodded, and immediately answered: "General Zhu is really a young hero, and he has the style of command, and the lower officials are ashamed." ”
After a pause, he said:
"Speaking of which, Xia Guan has admired Ling Zun for a long time, in the early spring of last year, he had seen Ling Zun Yan in the Hongzhou Hall, and sure enough, if there is a father, there will be a son, a good father and son soldier."
"Huh."
On horseback, the condescending Zhu Yuheng chuckled twice, and the mount under his crotch was circled three times by his royal rope in place, and a crimson horsewhip in his hand patted the horse's buttocks, and then he could stop.
Zhu Yuheng used the horsewhip to pat the horse's buttocks, pointed to Yuan County's order, whose expression remained unchanged below, and shook his head with a smile.
"Lord Yuan, Lord Yuan, in fact, you are also a hero, hahaha, it was the last general who misunderstood and sinned in the past."
What Junjie? Those who know the times are the Junjie of Junjie. If Zhu Yuheng remembers correctly, this Yuan County Order was very high, and he didn't give his father much face.
At the beginning of spring every year, the local county seat, according to the usual practice to go to Hongzhou City to report on work, other county orders in Hongzhou after coming to Hongzhou City, are very interesting, the first time to come to Hongzhou City, not to Hongzhou lobby report, but to go to Hongzhou Governor's Mansion, to visit, hand over the ceremony.
Only this Qipin county commander named Yuan Ji thinks of himself as high, and every time he comes empty-handed, he also throws his face at his father who was born in the military on some state and county issues, and does not cooperate.
It's just that, before, after all, this Yuan Ji was born in Jinshi Qingliu, and he governed Fushui County well, cold and fair, quite loved by the people of Fushui, and his life style was relatively poor and abiding, which was somewhat similar to Ouyang Lianghan, who served as the commander of Longcheng County in Jiangzhou.
Of course, it is not as outrageous and outstanding as Ouyang Lianghan's miracle of controlling the water and serving the head snake bully in another pot, but it is also famous in Hongzhou.
Therefore, the Hongzhou Governor's Mansion has not been able to grasp the handle, and the rectification of this hard bone has made my father very embarrassed.
Let me ask, what else is more refreshing than seeing the hard bones of the past soften?
The corners of Zhu Yuheng's mouth sneered, and he said leisurely:
"Lord Yuan is a smart man, he led the county people to surrender very quickly twice, just like the grass and trees on the wall of my house, heh, if you really have the heart, you will prepare all the grain and grass, boats, and people who transport grain,
"Don't add to the counterinsurgency of the imperial court and affect the fighters, honestly wait for my father's army to come, and the 100,000 former army will march from Xunyang City tomorrow to destroy the remnants of the Cai thieves in Hongzhou.
"Lord Yuan will soon be able to see his old man's noble face again, and when the time comes, let's talk about the old days."
Standing under the lantern, Yuan Xianling, who couldn't see his expression clearly, nodded:
"Okay, wait for the 100,000 male army of Governor Zhu, General Zhu will go slowly, and the grain and grass will be ready the day after tomorrow, but I hope that General Zhu will wait a little bit, now it is the autumn equinox, the autumn harvest and autumn planting, the villagers are harvesting grain, and they have to be postponed for two days, but the lower official guarantees that within seven days, the husband must be ready, as long as it is seven days, a little past this busy farming season......"
"Within three days."
Zhu Yuheng interrupted and ordered lightly.
"It's just a thousand levies, only three days in your county, let's go, Lord Yuan stays."
Zhu Yuheng, a martial artist who was not very interested in the cultivation of farmers, was about to take the lead in leaving after saying that he was fighting horses.
Yuan Ji sighed, turned around, and prepared to take the delicate little lady into the door.
But suddenly a puzzled voice came from the street ahead:
"Where did Lord Yuan take the last general's autumn clothes?"
Looking back, it turned out that it was Zhu Yuheng who raised his head and stopped, and turned his head to Yuan Ji to ask strangely.
In the team of Zhu Yuheng's entourage, there was immediately a light horse, running out for the little master, passing by the door, riding on horseback but skillfully snatching away the little lady and Qiuyi under the horse.
The little lady screamed, and the copper key fell to the ground.
The warriors laughed and walked away.
Looking at Zhu Yuheng's back, the corner of Fushui County Ling Yuan Ji's mouth twitched.
Under the two red lanterns, he stood still for a while, turned around and entered the door, and muttered:
"Twice...... But what's the difference? ”
After drinking, Zhu Yuheng, who rode back to the military camp on the outskirts of the county with his personal guard team, was blown by the evening breeze in the distant field, and suddenly woke up a lot.
Zhu Yuheng didn't know that Yuan Ji might be bored and careful about fighting for the farmers and people in this county, but at this moment, he only admired his father who was strategizing in Xunyang City, and he sighed.
Father is right, civil war is really different from foreign war.
In the civil war, the resistance in various places was weak, and it was very easy to surrender, and everyone was waiting for the victor to be decided, and to continue to return to the normal track of peace in the past.
The nature of this civil war led to its benefit not only to Li Zhengyan and other Kuang Fu army rebels, but also to their father and son's "reconquest of lost territory".
Military merits are at your fingertips, as long as you conscientiously do a good job in the key decisive battles with Li Zhengyan and Cai Qinjun.
Like the father's serious analysis:
Except for the cavalry going deep into the desert alone, like those foreign wars with foreign tribes in the frontier, it is not fast, it is a competition of national strength, and it is a blood feud between Huayi.
And the civil war, but it can't be slow!
The main hit is a snowball.
It is a winner-take-all, that is, it is to go all out, destroy the withering and decaying, sweep the past, win the key decisive battle, and the onlookers will naturally descend, instead of some repeated see-saw consumption, which is a stupid thing.
Father, who was already good at using troops to fight a decisive battle with a large army, was very sober and seized this opportunity.
Previously, Cai Qinjun conquered Hongzhou City, enveloped his father, and this was the case when he recovered the entire territory of Hongzhou and invaded Jiangzhou like a whirlwind.
However, the momentum was interrupted by his father in the battle of Guling in Jishui County.
At present, thanks to the defection of his father and the cooperation of his old subordinate Zhao Ru, the imperial court, which should have been slow to react, took back the initiative early, took Jiangzhou as the base camp, relied on its complete logistics system, gathered superior forces, and turned defense into attack.
At the moment, he and his father represent the upright imperial court, and they also have the advantage of troops, and his father was the governor of Hongzhou, and the side in Hongzhou that originally surrendered to Cai Qin and Tengwangfu Kuangfu had no reason to resist them.
Of course, like Yuan Ji, who welcomes Wang Shi like this, who dares to disobey his Zhu family father and son? It's just disobedience to the overall situation!
This is the general trend, no matter how hard the bones are, they have to be soft.
The former cold-faced county commander Yuan Ji was like this, and so was the tricky Ouyang Lianghan.
The good situation of their father and son, how can they just make way for the small autumn harvest of the people of Hongzhou?
"What a soldier who goes to the army to fight and conquer without a fight."
Zhu Yuheng sighed, and became more and more convinced and admired for his father, and deeply felt that he was young and vigorous before, and he was enthusiastic, and he mistakenly believed Yue Ziang and them.
"Father said, after this battle, sweep away Li Zhengyan, help the Wei clan win the southwest military merits, defeat the Baoli faction, and wait for the Wei clan to reuse the introduction, you can find an opportunity to send me to the northern border army, and truly make meritorious contributions, not to succumb to the corner of the south of the Yangtze River, but to have the opportunity to fight for the name of the eternal general!"
Zhu Yuheng, who had just sobered up, was a little bloody, and the prospect of a smooth road after that was even more intoxicating than that of a beautiful wine and beauty, he muttered to himself:
"I can't disobey my father in the future, and it turns out that my father's choice is right......"
Zhu Yuheng turned his head, laughed loudly and slapped the delicate little lady's buttocks on the horse behind him with the horsewhip in his hand, "Ah-" A wail, as if resentful and ashamed.
Zhu Yuheng smiled heartily, and immediately led people back to the barracks.
"Send her and Autumn Clothes to my tent."
smiled and ordered, Zhu Yuheng was going to wash up, and then change into autumn clothes, unlike other soldiers, he was covered in stinky sweat, he didn't want to be abrupt and beautiful, and he had to pay attention to decency.
"The eldest prince, the governor sent someone here, saying that there is an urgent matter! I've been waiting for half an hour. ”
Suddenly, a long-awaited guard stepped forward and said anxiously.
"Who's coming?"
"It's General Zhao." The guard whispered.
Zhu Yuheng's expression moved slightly, "Uncle Zhao? ”
This is the father's letter, the old subordinate who used to be in the governor's mansion, and later had to be transferred to Jishui County as a county lieutenant during the Taiping years.
"Okay, got it."
Zhu Yuheng didn't have time to care about the autumn clothes and the little lady for a while, so he immediately took his entourage and came to the big tent.
Approaching the big tent, he stopped quietly, and let the two Xianbei guards wait at the door, with the usual expression:
"No outsiders are allowed in."
"Yes."
Zhu Yuheng walked into the account.
I saw that a lame man had been waiting for a long time, and his face was calm, it was the guerrilla general Zhao Rushi.
"Uncle Zhao, I came late at night, what's the matter, Father has a new order?" Zhu Yuheng's tone was puzzled.
After seeing Zhu Yuheng, the lame man immediately got up excitedly, walked outside the figure, the amplitude was too large to cause some lameness, greeted him, grabbed Zhu Yuheng's palm, stuffed a hard object, the latter looked down and saw that it was a familiar jade jade ring, the lame man in front of him leaned into his ear, and tried his best to suppress and said:
"Eldest son, something happened in Xunyang City! Something is wrong!
Li Zhengyan didn't know where to go, he found a high-grade qi practitioner, who seemed to be a Yunmeng female monarch, and brought a strange Ding sword that looked like a picture scroll, sneaked into the city last night, killed Ouyang Lianghan and Wang Lengran for the first time, and beheaded the two female officials in colorful clothes, and then left the bloodwashed piece of armor in Xunyang Palace, and instead planted the imperial court.
"Li Zhengyan went to the governor privately, the governor was helpless, weighed it again and again, and decided to join the Kuang Fu army with the Ding sword, fight a bigger wave, and now follow Li Zhengyan to burn the Xunyang official ship, run out overnight, the special order will bring a letter, let you immediately take the vanguard army to Hongzhou Cai Qin, don't delay, the chasing army is behind!"
"What did you say?!" When Zhu Yuheng heard this, he was stunned.
Until Zhao Ru immediately took out a felt hat that Zhu Yuheng was also familiar with from his sleeve, and patted his palm with an anxious face: "Li Zheng...... Li Gong stayed before leaving, and asked us to hand it over to General Cai of Hongzhou with a smile, which is a token. ”
Zhu Yuheng stared down at the jade ring and the old felt hat, and in his silent open mouth, a thousand words converged into a single syllable:
"Huh?"
