Chapter 190: My father-in-law treats me like a mountain, it's so good!
It is bordered by mountains to the south.
Zhang Han personally led people to build a camp together, and took materials from the mountains without resting.
Even near the river, Zhuang Ding was invited to build pavilions, fences, and small buildings to live in.
If it were someone else, maybe they were just scouting the terrain and moving around.
But Zhang Han is different, he really pulls people to do it, Sun Gan, Mi Zhu, and Jia Xu are all impressively listed, Jia Xu can also roll up his sleeves to cut wood, cut bamboo, and carry stones.
Zhao Yun was in a trance for a while.
The laborers present, from the princes to the sergeants, all worked happily.
The sound of war horses roaring in unison in the field schoolyard, and the place surrounded by the camp is lively and shouting like a market, and some people even sang trumpets.
The people in the past were curious to see it, and knew that Zhang Bo often built a camp here to train soldiers, build workshops, and sent wine and pork to entertain them.
"The prince has won the hearts of the people."
Zhao Yun saw in him the appearance of many benevolent monarchs he had seen at the beginning.
It's just that there is still a slight difference, those benevolent gentlemen will not personally work hard and work hard with the brothers below.
Even if he had this kind of thought, he didn't have the physical strength of the prince.
"Junhou, it's all right!" Zhao Yun only wore a thin inner suit on his upper body, and his sturdy and majestic body carried a log on his shoulders and placed it beside Zhang Han.
"It's just, it's coming!" Zhao Yun wanted to come in his heart, but he couldn't get over it on his face, some words were difficult to speak, and he didn't have this kind of appeal.
Zhang Han is different, Zhang Han's personality is easy to infect the friends around him, what is a Luo, whether you are introverted or not, you will forget all the twists when you do things.
"Okay, take a break!" Zhang Han clapped his hands, put all the wood in a pile, and then handed the drawings to the craftsman beside him.
Several craftsmen discussed again, built a small wooden courtyard, and there was also a small road for mixing materials to come out, leading to the south gate of Xudu from the south of the mountain, just enough to pass through the merchant horses.
It is connected to the main road to Runan.
Zhang Han squatted on a big stone and said to Zhao Yun: "The construction of the small building will probably take more than half a month, and I am already carrying the use of the courtyard, but the barracks can rest in peace tonight." β
"The money, food and wine transported in the evening will arrive from Xudu, let's rest for a while, and then go into the mountains to see the hunting grounds."
"Okay," Zhao Yun smiled, as if he was as relaxed as when he worked at home with his brother.
"Thank you, Junhou," Zhao Yun said with heartfelt emotion.
"Thank me for what?" Zhang Han stretched out his sleeve and wiped his sweat directly, a little strange Zhao Yun's brain circuit.
Didn't I build these all for my own fun, and I left Xudu by the way, but it wasn't too far.
The good thing is that the school officials don't have to stare at me, anyway, it's useless for them to stare at me, and the daily news sent every day is checked by Dian Wei.
Zhao Yun smiled calmly, his face was sunny, "Naturally, thank you for being so generous, Zilong was able to contribute to this matter with just a casual remark." β
"In the south of the mountain, the terrain is diverse, far away from the eyes and ears, you can secretly train troops, beware of outposts, and there are water sources, pastures, school fields, plain granaries to hoard money and grain, and you can also travel to the mountains and rivers, it is really a unique place."
It's unique to me, Zhang Hanxin said, three years ago this was a barren mountain.
"Yes, all the benefits are accounted for, and the only regret is-" Zhang Han said meaningfully, and even sighed, looking far ahead.
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What are your regrets?" β
"The only regret is that I haven't told the prime minister yet, we may be punished for the big crime of leaving our posts without permission and privately transferring troops and horses."
Zhao Yun: "......"
Dian Wei: "......"
Zhao and Dian fell silent at the same time, but the reasons for silence were different, Zhao Yun just felt very powerful, and at the same time, he had a premonition of no return.
Dian Wei simply felt that he had started again.
After being silent for a while, Dian Wei said directly: "No, there is such a big movement in the migration camp, even if he didn't tell the prime minister, he would have known about it, but there was no order to stop or inquire, which means that he acquiesced." β
"That's right!" Zhang Han clapped his hands, stared at Dian Wei with shining eyes, and said: "That's the truth, it must be acquiesced, otherwise Qing Yu and Yitian would have already arrived in front of him." β
After sunset, the camp was built, the sergeants had begun to patrol and drill, and arranged military affairs at night, Zhang Han and Dian Wei set up a banquet in the main tent to entertain the generals with wine.
The new Ding who rode in the black robe was asked by Zhong Xuan to go to six hundred, the old man still had four hundred by Zhang Han's side, and the other four hundred had already gone to Jizhou to lurk.
And these expenses for the initial camp are said to be Zhang Han's private property.
Rumors have already begun to spread in the army: the prince has scattered his property again?
Then it will cause others to ask: "How much property does he have, and he can't scatter it no matter how much he scatters." β
"I thought that the poem of 'the daughter is scattered and comes back' before the prince was Shu Qi's ambition, but I didn't expect it to be his real experience! Is this still a narrative poem!? β
"We also occasionally have money in our accounts, why don't we have this kind of family ......"
After a lot of drinking, the chat was even more cheerful, and in the end, it was all admiration, and the people and princes made meritorious contributions and won money, and their reputation was not all bad.
At least half of the people praised his various qualities and merits, and admired his character.
There are only a handful of people in society who don't understand him, and they can't tolerate him in their mouths, and they want to say that he is greedy for money and lustful.
"The news from the north of Hebei seems to have a lot less inquiry into the prince."
Speaking of this, Jia Xu had indeed heard a lot of similar news, and immediately became interested, "Over there in Jizhou, a lot of outposts to spy on you have been removed, and there are very few orders to listen to you." β
"It shows that your retirement is very productive......"
Zhang Han glared at him and said, "Retire, what kind of retreat!" Who did you learn this word from? β
"Hejunhou," Jia Xu blinked, looking at him steadily.
"That's okay," Zhang Han lowered his head, and then he was in a good mood, "I have been suppressed by their strategy, and I am no longer the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and I have almost withdrawn from the path of the court and Jiuqing, and I can appoint celebrities in the future to win his heart." β
"This section is a must-do again," Zhang Han looked left and right, and said with a smile: "Why do you think so?" β
Jia Xu chuckled and said: "Because the Jizhou Association believes that the world is still inseparable from the pillars of the scholars, so the merits of the prince have come to an end, and the next step is to retire and give up the high position to others." β
"Moreover, when judging the situation, the celebrities and sages of Ji and Youyou will not think that the prince really has the talent to reverse the situation, but when the prime minister started in Yanzhou, there was no one else around him who could appoint him, so he had no choice but to recommend and reuse it, so as to show his temperament and open-mindedness."
"This is not to look down on it, but everyone in the world is like this, with fame as the most important, with the branches and leaves of the family as the most important, with the support of a family, there can be hundreds of people with them, and the prince is now widely friends, and the heritage is far from reaching."
"No, no," Zhang Han waved his hand again and again, "I don't have the ability to reverse the situation, I just take advantage of the general trend and go with the wind." β
Jia Xu stopped and looked at him deeply, "Well, the prince is right. β
"This is a good thing," Zhang Han patted his thigh, quite pleased, "The less Jizhou pays attention to me, the more I can forget my name in a few years, but the outpost in Jizhou is not bad, how can they give up on finding out about me so much?" β
"Well......" Jia Xu was also puzzled, and had a guess in his heart, but he couldn't judge the truth at will if he didn't get the truth.
Zhang Han chuckled a few times and said, "Heh, I'll know when I ask, Ziyu will also come here." β
"General Zhonglang?" Jia Xu glanced at him and muttered in his heart.
Did Zhonglang General already know about leaving the camp without permission?
Oh no, he should not only know, but even came to inform the prime minister of his attitude.
As he spoke, Cao Ang had already arrived, and the sergeant from outside the tent brought in, with a smile on his face, and looked at Zhang Han at a glance: "Brother-in-law." β
"Eh, uncle," Zhang Han smiled like a flower, and stretched out his hand to invite him to sit down beside him.
Without waiting for Cao Ang to sit down, he continued: "Our dad...... What did our father say? What are the instructions? β
"He asked if there was still a shortage of military rations, and a lot of them could be transferred from Xudu's branch for half a year to set up camp."
"No, I've got ...... here All you need to do is use it normally. β
Every month, there are military supplies to bring in military rations, but it doesn't hurt, but when the camp is moved, it costs a little money.
The cost is only equivalent to thousands of gold, and Zhang Han can afford to spend it.
"In addition, there is one more thing to entrust to you," Cao Ang sat down, his tone calm, he knew that Zhang Han would not refuse.
After all, he left his post without permission and privately transferred the camp first, and his father did not blame him, but entrusted him with a heavy responsibility.
Zhang Han's face collapsed suddenly, and his eyes looked like this, sighed, and said, "I knew it would be like this, let's say, what is the heavy responsibility?" β
Cao Ang looked left and right, there were still many faces in the tent at this moment, they should be new recruits to the camp, or newly promoted generals.
Zhang Han comprehended, and raised his chin directly, "All go out, Dian Wei, Jia Xu, Zilong, and Gao Shun stay." β
As soon as he finished speaking, he thought about it, and then changed his words: "Forget it, Gao Shun, Zilong will also go out." β
Zhang Han thought about it, in this case, the things he explained were probably not serious, so the two serious people had to go out quickly.
Just leave normal people in the hall.
After everyone left, Cao Ang took out a map and a piece of cloth, "This is a report sent by the outpost, in a few days, there will be a team of horse merchants to take this road to Jingzhou." β
"It should be the horses purchased from Bingzhou and Liangzhou, and they will be transported into Jingzhou after the beginning of spring, a total of several batches, following the caravan, it seems to be an ordinary cargo horse, but in fact, it can be seen that it is a war horse by looking at the size."
"My father thinks my brother-in-law seems to be closerβ"
"I see, this is the best thing for Dian Wei to do."
"Hehe," Dian Wei smiled directly after hearing this: "Junhou is right, I am a rough person, so I am suitable for robbing houses and houses." β
Cao Ang was dark-skinned and suspicious, slightly confused, why did Dian Wei speak like this now.
"It's not about robbing a house," Cao Ang was very serious, as if he was discussing state affairs and world affairs: "That is, my father also wants to buy this war horse, and the bid can be higher than Jingzhou." β
Can it not be high, life is priceless, this price is definitely better than Jingzhou.
However, Jingzhou is located in the south, there are not many war horses, and the foot soldiers and naval warships are the majority, if these war horses go to Jingzhou, they will also be the capital to fight with the Cao army in the future.
Zhang Han knew that he couldn't let these merchant horses reach Jingzhou, and he had to do it beautifully, so that people couldn't leave a handle to criticize.
"This is a gift from my father to Bo Chang," Cao Ang added.
Zhang Han and Dian Wei both raised their heads slowly with a little surprise at the same time, with a sense of joy in their eyes, "This, this can be, it can really be ......"
They all smell the smell of getting rich.
Several batches of war horses are all disguised as merchant horses, and if there are one or two hundred in each batch, there are thousands of war horses in total.
If you can get it, you will really get rich.
"Okay," Zhang Han nodded, he felt that Boss Cao was still quite real, and he didn't blame him and gave a big gift.
"I know," Zhang Han lowered his voice and smiled at Cao Ang, "I only know this news, and I don't know anything else." β
Cao Ang also nodded happily, "It is worthy of being Brother Bochang, these words can be understood with just one sentence." β
Jia Xu listened to it for a long time, as if he had something to say, but he stopped talking about it, and he endured it several times.
That night, he drank and drank happily, wrote poems and enjoyed himself, and played a sand table game.
It wasn't until late at night that the party ended, and after Cao Ang left, Jia Xu immediately pulled Zhang Han outside the tent and chatted privately under the moon.
"Junhou, now there are enough war horses in the army, and I feel that the prime minister did not say what must be done, but informed Yu Junhou of this news, in fact, you can pretend not to know."
"Why?" Zhang Han looked at him strangely, is there a cheap advantage? Isn't this a loss?
Jia Xu was stunned for a moment, thought about it and said, "I just think that there is no need to ......."
"We don't necessarily have to expand our soldiers and horses, and you are a dignified prince and do things like robbing houses......"
"Wenhe," Dian Wei's voice came from behind him, and he was dull: "You can't forget your roots as a man, we haven't done this kind of thing before." β
"This, this is different!" Jia Xu felt that more things were better than less, and he just had to train his troops well.
If people are too greedy, they will definitely be punished a little, and contentment is the right way.
"It's okay," Zhang Han patted Jia Xu's shoulder generously and heartily, and said with a smile: "It's okay, we have never been punished for privately transferring the camp, and we have secretly done such things that are beneficial to our army, how can we still be blamed?" β
"It makes sense."
Jia Xu nodded quietly, secretly feeling that this made sense, but he instinctively felt that there was still a bit of a hidden danger, but he couldn't refute it.
"Okay then." Jia Xu frowned, looking still preoccupied.
Zhang Han grabbed his shoulders, and said earnestly and bitterly: "Don't worry, what Dian Wei said before was very right." β
"When we transferred the camp, we saw so many school affairs, they would definitely be clear, and the prime minister must know."
"Now that we know everything, but we don't say it, what does that mean? Explain his acquiescence. β
"In the early years, when we started in Yanzhou, we had no money and no food, and only a few hundred horses, so what should we do if we want to expand our army? I can only rob it, especially when I arrived in Yingchuan in those years, so many scholars refused to accept it, and sent someone to assassinate me, what can I do? β
Jia Xu felt that it made sense while listening, and understood Zhang Han's statement, of course, it is good to buy and sell without capital and profit.
In particular, he also heard about the incident when he was in Yingchuan, after the assassination, Zhang Han was in front and the prime minister was behind, and the two of them successively looted all the ethnic groups in Yingchuan, twice......
"Okay, the prince goes," Jia Xu's expression relaxed, and when he thought about it, he was almost sure that the prime minister must have this intention in his heart.
β¦β¦
Five days later, on one night of daily training, Zhang Han ordered the transfer of 400 black-robed armored cavalry and 200 remaining cavalry, and left Nanlinshan and headed southwest on the pretext of exploring and patrolling the camp.
Zhao Yun's old subordinates fell into a long silence and self-doubt after hearing the real order.
It's like we've changed places and become bandits.
