Chapter 31: Haha! It's so beautiful!
Qin Hong's choice of Guyuan to build the city, in addition to the strategic perspective, is mainly due to the abundant water in this area, which is enough to support the population of a large city.
Fifteen miles southeast of Guyuan, there are all kinds of mountain landforms covered with ditches and ridges. A river more than three meters wide surrounds the foot of the mountains like a jade belt.
Sun Zheng's barracks was located in a small river bay.
Qin Hong took a group of guards and Zuo Hao to visit.
Seeing the barracks scattered on several hills from a distance, the old man nodded secretly, he was an expert!
When I was interested, I stayed in Maduo and watched it for a while. After a while, doubts came.
"The size of his barracks is not like three hundred soldiers!" Qin Hong's face turned cold: "How many people did he recruit?" ”
Zhu Ding was very helpless: "It is indeed three hundred personal soldiers!" However, they also helped the inn and the dart board to train guards and executioners. Well, there are still some people...... Dashuai, people spend their own money, but they don't go through our accounts. ”
"Where did he get all that money? Is it the inner money pulled out of the palace? ”
"Why do you still use the money from the palace? This master himself is a god of wealth! Haven't you seen that the four seas inn of the people, the house has not been repaired, build a shed to sell food, and people can be crowded every day. The money is earned, and the daily income is not to talk about it. It's been less than two months, and I'm almost ready to buy the next street! ”
"Is it really serious business? There is no such thing as bullying and bullying? ”
"How is that possible? There is a street in the four seas, and now it can be said that it is the best safe area in Guyuan City. Even the beard who came to sell cattle and sheep knew that there was something to find Jinyiwei, and it was the fairest thing to do! ”
Qin Hong shook his head and sighed: "Take a small peek at the big!" He can make his own money to raise soldiers, and I'm afraid he is not small. Nowadays, it is customary in the army that I can't afford to pay empty salaries. Those who are willing to be full of staff are either mindful of the world or have other plans. Let's go, go in and see, it's a blessing or a curse, and you have to look carefully! ”
The group marched forward on horseback, and there were still more than 100 steps away from the barracks, and they saw two teams of guards going out with neat steps, and one of them stood in line and put on a posture to greet them.
Qin Hong's heart twitched slightly, this was a long time ago when his whereabouts were discovered. But just now, I didn't find out that other people's nights were not collected. This guy is a bit of a doorway.
Zhu Ding dismounted first to make contact, and a sergeant on the other side came to Qin Hong's horse with strange and powerful steps, brushing a position, his right hand bent his elbow upward, and his five fingers were pressed together and slightly placed on his temple.
The old man said in his heart, this etiquette looks quite strange, but it is also quite interesting.
"The lowly Sun has seen Qin Shuai! Qianhu led the team to practice in the field and has not yet returned to the camp, and the news has been spread by the lowly position. Please Qin Shuai enter the camp for a while! ”
Qin Hong dismounted and returned a military salute of his own, the old man has been in battle for a long time, this kind of detail will not be sloppy: "Please lead the way!" ”
When the group passed through the guards, this group of young people with a spirit that was obviously different from other soldiers, and at the same time they saluted, shocking a group of veterans in a trance. Hey, this posture, really special mother's lift!
The man took over the care of the horses, and everyone entered the reception hall with the medicine and sat down.
The old man enters the door, huh! It's not eye-catching from the outside, but the inside is not ordinary!
Look at people's houses, it's called a bright one. All the walls are flat and neat, not to mention, and they are also painted with a layer of white plaster. The high bay window not only ensures the lighting, but also avoids the wind from hurting people.
In the center of the hall was a ridiculously large table, neatly arranged with two rows of high chairs. The old man didn't sit down, staring intently at the big wall opposite.
In the center of the wall is a map of the situation in the north that is the same as that of the prison army's yamen. The sand table on the other side, if you take a closer look, is the details near Guyuan. This scale is larger and more detailed, making it easy to immerse yourself in at a glance.
A few orderlies held hot tea and snacks. Qin Hong's gang didn't have the heart to touch it, they all followed the old man's ass, looking around, only thinking that everything was good here.
A few shrill whistles rang out in the distance, followed by muffled footsteps.
The old man frowned slightly, turned his head and asked, "Can the old man go out and have a look?" ”
"Qianhu has confessed, Qin Shuai is his own person, and everything here is open to you. Where you want to see, just ask! ”
"Hehe, the old man is honored!"
When everyone came out of the hall, they saw hundreds of soldiers shouting slogans and forming a phalanx dozens of meters away.
A young man with clear eyebrows strode towards everyone. Zhu Ding reminded that this is the different Qianhu Prison Army.
Sun Zheng hugged his fists from afar and saluted: "Qin Shuai is coming, and he is not welcomed." Forgiveness of sins and forgiveness of sins. ”
Qin Hong's hostility towards the internal officials in his heart had long been lost, and he hurriedly returned the salute: "It's the old man who treats Sun Qianhu slowly, and it's ......"
Sun Zheng didn't play this kind of round routine with him, and stretched out his hand to point: "Let's go in and talk, Qin Shuai, please!" ”
The old man followed a few steps before he came back to his senses, this little ghost easily took back the initiative, and the old man really met an opponent this time!
The scene was just a few sentences over and over again, and after talking about the lack of nutrition, Qin Hong got to the point: "I don't know what Sun Qianhu thinks about the position of supervising the army on these three sides?" ”
This is asking the governing philosophy, which is equivalent to asking Sun Zheng to express his position, what do you want.
Sun Zheng smiled slightly: "The prison army is the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, and the main task is to report the situation among the generals to the Son of Heaven, so that the master will not be deceived." Although Sun is young, he still understands this truth. ”
What do you mean? The old man was puzzled: "The old man watched thousands of households train soldiers, and he was quite successful. It's a great talent with a strategy! I don't know ......."
"Qin Shuai just relaxes, Sun is practicing, but he is a personal soldier. There are also some miscellaneous servants and retinues who help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince take care of the industry. Let's put it this way, as long as Qin Shuai does not rebel, Sun will never interfere in the affairs of Qin Shuai's army! I also know that there are some old customs in your army, such as empty salaries, and conscripts like private slaves. I don't care about any of that! ”
Everyone was embarrassed, including Old Man Qin, who was born in Wenchen, of course, he couldn't get used to it, but these vulgarities in the army were unspoken rules. If you dare to be ruthless, you have to be careful that your life is not guaranteed. What's more, how much better can a civil official be, he is darker than a general. This kind of thing, everyone knows it.
Sun Zheng continued: "Your Majesty is uneasy about the loss of sleep and food in the Hetao, Qin Shuai was entrusted with an important task by His Majesty, and this joint must be clear. As far as I am concerned, on the premise of ensuring that the border passes are not lost, and then expelling the Hu people and recapturing the Hetao is the main task of the three sides at present. As long as it is to achieve this task, how Qin Shuai governs the army and how the herdsmen does, Sun will never interfere! But there is one rule, you must restrain the soldiers, and do not harass the people. If I find out that there are remnants, harming the people, or even killing good and risky people, don't blame Sun for being unpredictable! ”
Hey? See a living ghost! Has the internal official changed sex? You, a guy from a factory guard, actually reminded the old man not to harm the people? Are you kidding the old man?
Until he set foot on the return journey, Lao Qin was still awkward in his heart.
"I was taught a lesson by a junior! The old man has been a scholar and the first in the past, and the sea has been up and down for decades, how can he ever be questioned like this? ! ”
Finding that Zhu Ding and the others were full of entanglement, the old man understood a little: "But what happened recently?" ”
Zhu Ding hit his horse and explained in a low voice: "Didn't the marshal tell Guyuan to build a new building, recruit the people, and expand the trade routes." Last month, a few Hu people came to Guyuan to sell horses, and a few small celebrities were good at horses, so they moved their minds and wanted to take horses in the name of spies. ”
Qin Hong sneered: "Bumped into his hand?" How is it cooked? ”
Zhu Ding's face turned red: "Sun Qianhu tried it in public, and revealed the careful thinking of a few soldiers. Later, Sun Qianhu bought those horses with his own money, and gave those Hu people a membership discount, anyway, those Hu people will be half cheaper when they eat at the Four Seas Inn in the future. The soldiers didn't feel embarrassed, they just twisted and sent back to the barracks......"
"What else?"
"Yang Lin, the general on duty that day, beat twenty boards. He also called a few of us to say that there was such a thing again, and he only talked to the generals. ”
Hey! Interesting.
Zhu Ding said in a low voice: "Lao Yang is not angry yet, he wants to make people stumble." I found a few people in the rivers and lakes and wanted to go to the Four Seas Inn for embarrassment. As a result, when people heard that it was all over the world, they almost chopped him off the spot, and the scolding was ugly. We only know that this Sun Qianhu is the King of Sun Yan who made a big fuss in Taiyuan Mansion! ”
What? Qin Hong had obviously heard the legend as well: "It turns out that he is the King of Sun Yan!" ”
"There's an even scarier one!" Zhu Ding gave the old man a make-up lesson: "Qin Shuai, do you know why he was sent to be a supervisor?" It was recommended by three elders! ”
Huh? The old man obviously didn't know about it: "But is there an inside story?" ”
Zhu Ding told the cause and effect of the abduction and murder case of the Leaky Zeyuan incident, and said with a scared face: "It is said that the Shouning Hou brothers are still often scared to wet the bed. ”
The old man was a little unconvinced: "Li Guang doesn't go, does he really dare to make a dead move?" ”
Zhu Ding was embarrassed: "That's not for sure, anyway, it's true that more than a dozen families in the small pier hanged themselves." ”
Qin Hong gasped, this attack was really ruthless, a bit of an internal official.
As he walked, the old man suddenly came back to his senses, this is not right, he did what the old man wanted to do but couldn't do, this is a good thing!
No wonder those elders pushed him out, this is to let him fight with the old man in the ring?
Ha ha! It's so beautiful!
