Chapter 161: Tempting, the Holy Decree is like waste paper
The midsummer sun sprinkled on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, plating a faint golden light on his body, giving him the illusion of beauty.
Su Chanyi's eyes were a little stupid, and the speed of her heartbeat increased again, making her swallow saliva and adjust her breathing.
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Junlin heard Su Chanyi's sudden deep breath, saw that her face was different, and regretted it.
He knew that Miss Su was a smart person, but the smarter she was, the more she thought about it.
Wisdom will hurt, that's the truth.
"Miss Su, don't take what I just said to heart, it's your love to help, and it's your duty not to help."
Is it?
After hearing this explanation, Su Chanyi not only did not let go, but felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only had monarchs and ministers, and had no personal feelings.
That's why I didn't have any excessive expectations for her...... Reason told her it was right, but what was the sudden dull pain in her heart?
"Your Highness, I'm hungry and a little flustered."
"Quick, go eat!"
Zhang Junlin decided that it would be better to arrange a carriage for Miss Su to sit in later.
He knew that Miss Su didn't let her shave her eyebrows, and what she did was higher than the merits of contemporary men.
But Miss Su is a low martial artist in the end, and her physique doesn't look so strong.
Some are strong, and what should not be done still can't be done.
……
Outside the county seat, inside the garrison barracks.
It was the time for lunch, and as the soldiers of the Jingji Battalion who had returned from afar, they naturally had to start the meal earlier than the local soldiers.
It's just that...... When the local soldiers saw the soldiers of the Jingji Battalion who had gobbled up their food, as if they had not eaten military rations in eight lifetimes, they suddenly suspected that this group of soldiers was really the soldiers of the Jingji Battalion, who were either rich or noble, and were not refugees who had fled?
No.
Even the refugees who entered the territory of Zhenzhou were not as heroic as them.
Before the braised pork in his mouth was swallowed, he put the bamboo chopsticks into the pot and wanted to eat the mutton.
One by one, they had to eat a bowl of preserved eggs and lean porridge to fill the gaps in their stomachs, and they were reluctant to put down the dishes and chopsticks when they were full of burps.
This made the local garrisons, who only dared to eat eight points in order to participate in the afternoon training, look at this group of soldiers of the Beijing Machinery Battalion with envy and disgust.
Eating so much, enjoying the shade on the shade with a bare belly, it looks beautiful, but in fact, no one can fight.
Because it is inland and not close to the border, the local garrison in Juxian County is a strength of 1,000 people.
But the local recruits, who have only been trained for two months, are looking at this group of veterans of the 5,000 Beijing Machinery Battalion.
I feel that it doesn't take a single meal to serve these 5,000 people in one pot.
None of them.
These people in the Jingji camp are too edible and too vegetable.
"General Jiang, let them suppress the rebellious people, I'm afraid it's not good, right?"
Chen Da, the general of Juxian County, also received the instructions from above, received the soldiers and horses brought by Jiang Cheng, and went to Yang County to suppress the rebellious people.
It is said that it is a rioter, but in fact, it is the bandits who fled to the mountains to hide with murders on their backs.
The bandits were not low-armed, and they were very patient and resilient.
If you hide in the mountains, you can not see a single figure for ten days and half a month, and the local government of Yang County sent many officers and soldiers to arrest them, but they always returned empty-handed.
After Chen Da heard about this incident in Ju County, he felt that those robbers had been running in the mountains for so long, maybe they were either eaten by jackals or planning to die in the mountains.
"This is Your Majesty's will, Your Majesty will do what he says."
Jiang Cheng pulled the lean porridge in the bowl, and was very calm about the scene in front of him.
Seeing this, Chen Da secretly complained.
He didn't expect the boss to be so serious about this matter, and he deliberately asked Jiang Cheng, who was far away in Jiazhou, to come back to suppress the rebellious people.
Jiang Shou was transferred back, and Chen Da thought that the 20,000 guards in the original Zhenzhou could also come back.
Only then did he specially ask for 20,000 military rations from above to entertain the brothers.
Which Cheng wanted to come with the 5,000 soldiers and horses of the Jingji Battalion, or a group of lazy soldiers who couldn't help up.
These 5,000 soldiers and horses can not do anything except eat, and send them to Yang County to fight the robbers in the mountains?
Chen Dadu was worried that they would be taken to their lair by tigers and wolves in the mountains to use as rations.
"The general wants to personally lead his troops to suppress the rebellious people?"
Chen Da felt that His Majesty might not know the situation in Zhenzhou, and General Jiang, as the former general of Zhenzhou, could not have known how complicated the mountainous terrain of Yang County was.
In order to catch a few robbers, 5,000 soldiers and horses were sent to search the mountains, and a general was also required to sit in charge...... How do you think about it, General Jiang's intention should not be to suppress the rebellious people.
There have been rioting robbers in Zhenzhou before, and I have never seen His Majesty the Emperor so concerned.
"Yes, I personally led the troops to Yang County, and as for the matter of feeding the people and conscription, it needs to be handed over to the Song Supervisor Army to be responsible."
Song Qin, who had been sitting next to him drinking porridge, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and he was also crying bitterly in his heart.
Let him, a person who knows nothing about Zhenzhou, be responsible for feeding the people and recruiting soldiers, and he may not only be scolded, but also beaten up.
knew that Jiang Cheng would make a move when he arrived at the boundary of Zhenzhou, but he didn't expect to come up and throw this hot potato to himself first.
"Material? Conscription? ”
Of course, Chen Da understands these two words.
But when they came out of Jiang Cheng's mouth, he was dumbfounded.
Without waiting for him to guess what this meant, Jiang Cheng beckoned to the guard.
The guards who had just put down the dishes and chopsticks hurriedly handed the holy decree to Jiang Cheng's hands.
Jiang Cheng wiped his mouth and stood up.
When Chen Da saw Minghuang's holy decree, his right eyelid jumped, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"This holy decree is issued to everyone in the entire Zhenzhou, but the conscription requires the cooperation of the local guards, so, General Chen, take the order."
Plop.
Chen Da knelt on one knee and bowed with his fists clenched.
"The last general, the county guard, Chen Da......"
I really don't want to accept this holy decree!
But Jiang Cheng didn't give Chen Da a chance to express his thoughts, and directly opened his mind.
"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said: Because the soldiers and horses of the original defenders of Zhenzhou temporarily mobilized the Jingji battalion, in order to impose the city defense of Zhenzhou and deter the border defense of Western Chu, the people of Zhenzhou and Jinling were specially sent to recruit 20,000 soldiers, and the guards and officials of the two cities allocated the number of conscripts by themselves, and the requisition was completed within 15 days from the receipt of the holy decree. Those who do not obey the decree will be killed! ”
The content of the decree is simple.
But its impact is enormous.
First of all, Jinling and Zhenzhou each recruited 20,000 soldiers.
But Chen Da knew that Jiang Cheng was only the former guard general of Zhenzhou, and the Jinling soldiers and horses were directly responsible for the eldest princess.
This holy decree is just like what Jiang Cheng said, it is a matter of the entire Zhenzhou, and it has nothing to do with Jinling.
"General Jiang, the last time His Majesty took the royal family and the magnates to the north, he had already taken away all the troops, manpower and food in Zhenzhou, and now Zhenzhou has only recuperated under the decree of His Royal Highness the Prince, and has also attracted a lot of displaced people and refugees to settle here.
Chen Dajie can understand things that military generals can understand.
He didn't believe that His Majesty the Emperor hadn't thought about it when he gave this holy decree!
After Jiang Cheng finished reading the holy decree, he calmly rolled up the holy decree, and after handing it back into the hands of the guards, he showed a helpless wry smile at the county guards who had already looked at him with anger on their faces when they heard the holy decree.
"Lao Chen, I know what you have in mind, but Your Majesty really didn't drive people out, this holy decree, in addition to Zhenzhou, was also sent to Jinling, if you and I disobey the holy decree, there will be no forgiveness, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disobeys the holy decree, it will be the same fate."
Jiang Cheng knew that once a son of heaven and a courtier, this holy purpose was equivalent to a roll of waste paper in the eyes of many town and state officials and guards.
But his task now is to make the most of this waste paper!
Your Majesty, it was you who lost South Vietnam, the last general, I can't help you!
Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth and let go, deliberately shouting.
"Zhenzhou can't get together 20,000 soldiers and horses, so we can only let the people of Jinling make it together, do we Zhenzhou people want to make His Royal Highness the Prince embarrassed? Do we want His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to resist the order and be beheaded and killed by His Majesty? ”
