Chapter 236: Versatile
The craft of making clothes was learned by Jia Hui in the auxiliary barracks in Ningxia Town.
The auxiliary barracks of Daqi is a magical place, which is a place where many logistics departments such as sappers, firehead troops, domesticated war horses, weapon casting, and medical depots are all in one.
Moreover, it is not the kind of people who were temporarily recruited during the wartime like the previous dynasty, and the craftsmen, cooks and even horsemen of the Daqi auxiliary battalion are all officially established in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.
Even the military salaries are on the same level as the regular soldiers of the combat troops.
In addition, there is also a role for the auxiliary battalion to really stand up, and to train the children of the nobles.
Although there are many people who will bring their children with them to cultivate, but in the early years, the founding nobles of the Lin (Zi) Cao (Gang) Department did this, and it is not known who proposed it, but the purpose sounds very interesting
Cultivate the friendship of future generations.
Although this is no different from forming a party for personal gain, Emperor Taizu has not said anything since he knew about it, and this rule has been handed down.
Almost all the sons of the nobles, including Jia Hui himself and even his grandfather Jia Daishan, were first assigned to the main battle unit after they had learned their skills in the auxiliary barracks.
The reason for this is that the auxiliary battalion has to go to battle, but most of the time it is not necessary to join the battle.
The general training process of the auxiliary battalion is to start a one-month military training after entering the camp. The sons and daughters of the nobles who can be assigned to the nine-sided auxiliary battalion are generally determined to take the martial path, so they have already trained in martial arts when they are at home, so as long as they train a little and then mainly practice the battle formation, they will be considered complete.
Of course, there are exceptions to everything, if you really don't know martial arts or fail the martial arts exam, you will be gathered and retrained until you can't hold it or pass the assessment.
After that, three months of survival training in the grasslands, deserts and mountains. If there is a war during this period, the adaptation training of the battlefield will be carried out in advance.
For example, watching the battle, or cleaning the battlefield.
Cleaning the battlefield is actually not an easy task, the soldiers who fought on the battlefield before did not feel any smell and fear after hitting their heads, but when the auxiliary battalion began to clean the battlefield, the most terrifying thing was presented in front of their eyes.
The filthy blood that gathered into a stream of water, the flesh and blood that were chopped off, the severed limbs that could be seen everywhere, the stench of internal organs flowing all over the ground, the intestines that could burst out of a piece of if you accidentally stepped on it, the wails of the people around who were not yet dead, and . Pretend to be dead an enemy soldier hiding in a pile of corpses.
Those who are not yet dead are easy to do, they only need to carry their own people on stretchers and send them to the hospital, and the enemy will kill them with swords, in order to let the noble children of the auxiliary battalion see blood and adapt in advance.
However, it is the enemy troops who hide in the pile of corpses that are the most terrifying.
Several little brothers who were also the "Shu Evil Army" with Jia Hui were not cautious enough, and when they were cleaning the battlefield, they directly picked up their corpses with their hands, and were wiped by the enemies who suddenly came out
When these three trainings are over, the sons and daughters of the honorable will be able to enter the combat unit.
Jia Hui was more unlucky, his survival training was actually only about 20 days, and when the grassland survival training was about to end, Timur made a mistake.
Let's go back to Ningxia Town at that time.
At that time, Daqi was poor, and Ningxia Town had not even changed its military uniform for eight years, but there was no way, in order to save trouble and effort, the imperial court gave the border towns the right to allow themselves to prepare mandarin duck battle jackets.
In order to reduce costs, the border towns just ordered some red cloth and thread, and then made them in-house.
At first, it was directly thrown to the families of the soldiers, but after a while, it was found that all these materials were made into some children's clothes for the children at home.
And the mandarin duck jacket on the soldier's body is still the same as eight years ago, at most, it is just a few patches sewn on the rags used to make clothes, and they have to be sent to the auxiliary battalion to make them.
At that time, Jia Hui, who was learning all kinds of knowledge in the auxiliary barracks, was naturally assigned the task of sewing a mandarin duck jacket for himself.
I almost didn't tie my fingers into a sieve!
"Originally, as a noble child, I don't need to make clothes, and no one will be in short supply if there is a shortage of us. But," a hint of complexity flashed across Jia Hui's face.
"But what?" Chen Si didn't even eat, but listened carefully to Jia Hui's story in the auxiliary barracks.
Chen Si joined after the Qi army recovered Hamiwei, so naturally he didn't know what happened when Jia Hui was in Ningxia Town.
"But a letter came from home, saying that the second room of the family was born with jade, I'm afraid!"
"Ah, I see!" Chen understood in four seconds.
Yuan Chun also told him about this matter, at first Chen Si was very unhappy, but when he heard that Jia Baoyu caught Zhou with rouge, his performance at home can also see that he must be a hungry ghost when he grows up, or he was doted on by his wife and grandmother, and he grew up with indulgence, so he no longer paid attention to him.
"In addition, it wasn't the East Palace incident for a while, my father happened to be the left concubine of the East Palace, so I was worried that one day this incident and the matter of Baoyu being born of the jade will go over the old accounts of the emperor, and it will affect me, so I am ready to run away in advance, and when I avoid this limelight, at least there is a tailor's craft to earn a living." Jia Hui hugged her chest against the table, and the more she talked, the more excited she became.
"And I don't know how to tailor, I also learned several crafts such as iron-making and leather-making, and I can speak and write several languages, Monghu, Tubo, and Uighur, and even a little bit of Turkic."
"You even thought of running away to the Turks?" Chen Si looked at Jia Hui with a shocked expression.
"Hey, Yiduo doesn't press, Yiduo doesn't press!" Jia Hui was very nervous.
Although the purpose of learning these is not so serious, and even forced by life, Jia Hui is very proud when he thinks that he can learn three languages and scripts in just a few years, as well as many crafts above the qualified line!
Lao Tzu is really awesome!
"Heh, hehe, indeed." Chen Si was completely speechless, so he had to suck the white porridge with his head down, and then bite into the bun.
There are no conditions at home when going out, and Jia Hui and Chen Si are all climbing ice and lying in the snow and rolling out of knives and guns, and they are never picky about eating, and they will eat everything when they are hungry.
The main thing for the brothers is that those who stutter can live, and the most important thing is to fill their stomachs.
"Ahem. Ottoman Babylonian Pasha Mustafa meets the Righteous King and meets Captain Jia! ”
Just as Chen Si was eating happily, a Chinese dialect with a Turkic accent next to him attracted the attention of everyone present.
Chen Si and Jia Hui hurriedly stood up and returned the salute.
What is short can not be short of etiquette.
"I don't know what the Pasha is doing here?" With his mouth off the edge of the bowl, Chen Si returned from the old farmer in the countryside to his personable appearance, showing the demeanor of the prince of Daqi.
"There's nothing to do, but I just saw the king and the captain here, so I came over to say hello." Mustafa smiled and sat down at the table between the two.
Jia Hui and Chen Si glanced at each other, probably understanding what he was here for.
"Pasha must have something to discuss with my brothers when he came here, right?" Jia Hui and Chen Si are not muddy and watery, and a sentence can only be said after eighteen bends, and he is really not familiar with this Mustafa Pasha, so he doesn't plan to say anything.
"I'm just here to say hello to the prince and have breakfast together." Listening to the straightforward words of the two people opposite, Mustafa was stunned.
No, aren't the Han people all known as the state of etiquette, and they have a set of procedures for everything, and then every word has to be made several times before it is spoken?
Everyone I looked for before was like this, why are these two people so different?
"I came to have breakfast, so I won't disturb the Pasha meal and say goodbye." Jia Hui nodded, put all the egg skins in the small tray, and was about to get up and leave.
I've already finished breakfast, and I'm still here because I'm waiting for Chen Si.
"Ah, slowly, slowly, Taiwei and slowly, I really have something I want to talk to you and the king about!" Seeing that Jia Hui was really leaving, Mustafa hurriedly got up and grabbed Jia Hui's sleeve, so that he could persuade him to sit down
"Whew" Mustafa took a long breath, and when he saw Prince Yiyong, who was indifferent throughout the whole process, he felt very tired
God, are you really civilized?
How do you feel that those of us who have only been founded for a hundred years know etiquette better than you!
According to the rules of the industry, isn't it true that everyone talks and laughs on the table for a while, and from time to time they have to say a few meaningful words to fight wits and courage, and finally refine their respective conditions in the words that have turned eighteen corners?
Yes!
This is even more barbaric than the Turkic tribes of the steppes of Central Asia!
Both the Turkic and the Mughal tribes know that one pretends to be a good person and the other is a bad person, and they help them keep someone when they leave the table!
Lao Tzu has never suffered such grievances in his life!
"So. Your Excellency Pasha, why have you come to us? Chen Si spoke again.
Mustafa didn't answer immediately, he was worried that he couldn't help but curse if he opened his mouth directly, and after taking seven or eight deep breaths to adjust his state, he regained his senses.
"It's about me Ottomans and the Persians, I don't know. What do the kings and the captains think, no, no, no, what is their attitude? ”
Chen Si Jia Hui was silent for a while, and after glancing at each other, he decided to let Jia Hui speak.
Chen Si? said that he was a popular candidate for the prince, but in fact, he has almost no power now, unless he can become the prince and form his own team, he will not be ranked in front of Jia Hui at all.
So leave all this kind of thing to Jia Hui to talk about, and he can't be the master anyway.
"What do you think? I don't think so, your country is too far away from my Daqi, and if it weren't for Persia, there wouldn't even be any intersection between you and me. Jia Hui took the tea made by the very discerning cook and took a sip slightly.
"That's true, I set out from Baghdad and walked for nearly half a year to Chang'an, which is already the reason why we have fewer people and don't bring many things, if there are more people, it will take longer." Mustafa nodded and said pointedly.
Jia Hui thought so.
"So to put it mildly, the relationship between Daqi and your country is actually dispensable, and it is not more important than the relationship between Daqi and Persia, I said in a somewhat heavy tone, I hope you don't mind."
Mind? Of course I mind! But since you've said so, wouldn't it be too undisciplined for me to mind?
Resisting the urge to scold his mother, Mustafa said with difficulty: "Taiwei is really temperamental, of course he won't mind, but why do you say that?" ”
"Because Persia borders Daqi." Jia Hui said as a matter of course.
Mustafa fell silent and quickly sorted out the causal relationship.
Yes, bordering, although the Qi people are very capable of fighting, they will not wantonly cause any disputes with neighboring countries and cause border pressure
If Jia Hui knew Mustafa's thoughts, he would definitely scoff at it, boy, don't you know the emperor of my country, the phrase "do whatever you want and exceed the rules" is his old man's life creed, and the main thing is to rebel and disobey.
It's his old man who retreats and replaces it today, otherwise the emperor and his old man would have sent a large army to fight together.
Whether you can fight or not is another story, but let's talk about it first!
"So, can the Tai Lieutenant talk to me below, Daqi is. How is it planned? Mustafa is also used to speaking straight.
"Planning" Jia Hui paused, turned his head to look at Li Xiang, who had been listening with his ears pricked up at the next table.
Seeing Jia Hui looking at him, Li Xiang did not answer immediately, but turned his head to discuss with a few Jiuqing, and then turned his head and nodded to Jia Hui.
Jia Hui was surprised, and then turned his head to look at Mustafa, who was looking forward to seeing it.
"Daqi is willing to be impartial and facilitate this peace talks. I just hope that your country and the Persians will each take a half step back, and your country will spit out a part of the Persian land, and the Persians will recognize your country's sovereignty over the occupied land and pay reparations" Jia Hui paused.
After all, it was Persia who took the initiative to provoke trouble, so naturally he had to pay the price for his actions.
"After all, the territory of Persia occupied by your country this time is too large, and there are many problems that need to be solved one by one to digest these lands. I've heard that there are Persians revolting against your country, haven't they? ”
Qi Shang and translator Hu Lushu was taken away by the imperial court as early as after following the Ottomans into Beijing, and through his imperial court, he also knew a lot about the Ottoman present. The situation a few months ago.
Mustafa was silent, constantly calculating in his mind.
"Is this the attitude of Daqi? Let's spit out the land red with the blood of our clansmen? Mustafa looked directly into Jia Hui's eyes.
"I hope Pasha can figure it out," Jia Hui leaned back in his chair and took a sip of tea, "Daqi is just troublesome and expensive, so it has only expanded to its current territory." ”
Otherwise, Lao Tzu will fight with Persia and the Ottomans!
Mustafa Pasha's breath stagnated, and he understood what Jia Hui said.
After taking a few deep breaths, Mustafa sighed.
In fact, they should not have come to Han in the first place, although what they said made sense, but it was useless, the caliph would not vomit out the land that he ate into his stomach.
However, send a letter to ask.
Thinking of this, Mustafa's heart suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and this matter should be left to the caliph to have a headache.
But
Mustafa stared at Jia Hui.
"Your country's attitude will be truthfully submitted to His Majesty the Caliph in the future, but there is a reluctant request in the next place, I don't know if the captain can do it."
"It's easy to say, Pasha, please."
"Okay, then I'll say it directly, I saw the heroic posture of the captain fighting the tiger yesterday, and I yearn for it very much, so." Mustafa Pasha leaned forward and looked at Jia Hui.
"I hope that the captain can learn a thing or two from Zaixia!"
Revenge, revenge, revenge!
Thank you for the reward from book friend Xuanyuan Yu!
