Volume 1 Strife and Troubled Times Chapter 108 Return
Wang Rong deeply knows that although the hospital is small, its power is not small. Think about it, even the emperor's life is in the hands of the Imperial Hospital, who dares to underestimate the imperial doctors?
Of course, the doctors of the Tai Hospital didn't have the courage to dare to pull the emperor off the horse.
Wang Rong said to Zhang Pu: "I am looking forward to meeting with the envoy of the Tai Hospital. ”
Zhang Pu wanted to say something, but at this time, Wang Hao came over and said to the two: "Du Wei, little Doctor Zhang, it's been an hour. ”
Wang Rong dragged over Chiyun, who was making a mistake beside Zhang Pu, put Zhang Pu in the carriage, and then said to Wang Hao: "Call everyone up, we are leaving." ”
The whole team was very efficient, quickly reassembled, and began to move on. After three days of traveling along the south branch of the Great River, Wang Rong finally saw the gate tower of Woye City.
In Shili Pavilion, Guo Xi, the county magistrate of Woye County, Liu Zai, the county lieutenant, and Xu Ye, the county lieutenant, together with the officials of Woye County, were waiting there.
When Wang Rong saw everyone, he turned over and dismounted, walked quickly in front of Guo Xi and the others, and bowed: "It's my sin to bother Mr. Guo and Mr. Liu to wait here for a long time. ”
Guo Xi and Liu Zai returned the salute one after another, Guo Xi said with a smile: "The prestige of the Commander has been transmitted back to Woye City, this time the soldiers of the Western Governor's Mansion have made meritorious contributions to the battlefield and driven out the Tartars, so that many young people are eager to try, hoping to become soldiers of the Western Governor's Mansion." ”
Wang Rong shook his head and said with a wry smile: "What is the situation in this army, the people don't know, don't you know?" The Western Governor's Mansion is sparsely populated, and it can't raise too many soldiers and horses at all. In this campaign, the township soldiers contributed the most, and the sacrifices were also great. ”
Guo Xi said with a mysterious smile: "Du Wei is too worried, Chu Changshi has not been idle during this time, and when you get to Lucheng City, you will find out." ”
Wang Rong looked at him with an unspeakable look, so he didn't continue to ask, anyway, when he finally arrived in Luchuan City, he knew everything.
Wang Rong then said to Guo Xi and Liu Zai: "The army will not enter the city, and the soldiers in the army whose home is in Woye City will go home on the spot." You have also seen that such a large group of livestock cannot be digested by the city itself, and the two gentlemen can send people to select them as livestock in the government and domesticate them in a centralized manner. The cattle are rented to the farmers who need them, and the horses and mules are picked out to supplement the military supplies, and the rest can be sold to interested herdsmen. Don't think about it, camels, I'm of great use. ”
Why did Guo Xi and Liu Zai bring so many people to wait in Shili Pavilion, just for this batch of livestock. They had long heard that Wang Rong had taken 400,000 batches of livestock from the Devils, including horses, cattle, sheep, mules, camels, etc., of many types and quantities. Even if the 400,000 can't all go to the Western Governor's Office, there should always be 100,000.
Now that Wang Rong has taken the initiative to distribute livestock, it is not in vain that they are cheeky and make such a flattering behavior of going out of the city for ten miles to greet each other.
After tossing and turning outside the city for an hour and a half, and having delivered some of the livestock, Wang Rong's party began to advance westward, crossing the Great River, and then westward along the edge of Tushenze.
Wang Rong thought that it would take two days to reach the city, but he didn't expect that when he had just walked for a day, and there were still about fifteen miles away from the city, he saw a wooden wall from a distance.
Wang Rong asked uncertainly to Wang Mao and Li Sujie on the side: "When we leave, is there this wooden wall in the city?" ”
Wang Mo and Li Sujie were also a little confused, Wang Rong looked at Chu Luxu who was following him again, and asked, "You and Mr. Chu often correspond, did he say this in his letter?" ”
As soon as Chu Luxu wanted to answer, he saw a large group of people waiting there not far away, and he could vaguely see his father's figure, so he changed his words: "Duwei, the specific situation, let my father answer for you, you see, my father is over there." ”
Wang Rong looked in the direction pointed by Chu Luxu, and immediately saw a large group of people, and was taken aback in his heart, he hurriedly led the surrounding generals forward, and when he got closer, he found that it was actually Chu Kun who led many officials from the Governor's Mansion to wait here.
Wang Wei stopped the horse about twenty steps in front of the crowd, turned over and dismounted, walked quickly in front of Chu Kun, bowed and saluted, "Mr. Chu, why are you here?" ”
Chu Kun returned the salute, and said in a slightly excited voice: "Duwei's prestige is far and wide, and the city is full of honor, and the old man has already sent someone to find out that Duwei and his party are going to arrive today, so he took his colleagues from Duwei's Mansion and the county government to wait again, as for these many people, they all came to greet Duwei spontaneously." ”
Wang Rong smiled bitterly, and he said helplessly: "Mr. Chu, on this expedition, there are many soldiers who died on the battlefield. The people happily came to greet their loved ones, but I was really afraid that it would backfire. ”
Chu Kun said calmly: "It's okay, Du Wei and rest assured, during this period of time, the old man not only publicized the glorious achievements of Du Wei and others, but also publicized the heroic fighting of the soldiers and township soldiers, except that the people were worried about their relatives at the beginning, and later they were used to it." ”
Wang Rong knows the influence of public opinion. He looked at Chu Kun, who was calm and calm, nodded, and then turned back to Wang Hao and the others and said, "According to what we have prepared a long time ago, let's start." ”
As soon as Wang Wei said this, Wang Hao, Chu Luxu, and Li Sujie's faces changed sharply, but they didn't say anything, but bowed together: "Oh! ”
At this time, the team had stopped, and the whistling sound of the crowd in front of her could be faintly heard by Zhang Pu in the carriage, she opened the curtain of the door and asked Zhang Yunshu who was riding on the horse: "Second brother, second brother, what happened ahead?" ”
Zhang Yunshu's eyesight is good, and he even looked at it and said guessingly: "There are many people in front, it is estimated that the officials and people of the city have come to greet them." ”
Zhang Pu looked puzzled and said, "There is still some distance from the city here, right?" ”
Zhang Yunshu nodded and said, "There are still about fifteen miles." ”
On the other carriage on the side, Meng Ao stood on the frame, looking at everything in front of him, his expression was a little trance, and the people's hearts were attached to it like this.
Then the next scene surprised Meng Ao, Zhang Yunshu and Zhang Pu. I saw that the cavalrymen who were originally riding on horses and the foot soldiers sitting on the cart dismounted one after another, and then took out a white porcelain jar from their respective bags, and each jar was glued with this note. At a glance, there are about a thousand.
"Second brother, what are they?" Zhang Pu asked in a low voice.
Zhang Yunshu looked at the scene in front of him, his expression began to be unprecedentedly serious, and he reprimanded softly: "Little sister, don't speak, just look at it." ”
