When Shao Xun got up, he found that the red military robe he usually wore had been put away and replaced by a purple military uniform customized according to his figure. It was very luxurious.
After putting on his military uniform under Lu Xun's service, Shao Xun smiled and asked me, "Colorful War Robe Shao."
The kitchen was opened in the middle of the night to prepare meals for Shao Xun and his soldiers.
Yu Wenjun got up a little late, so she prepared her husband's meals herself.
"One bucket of noodles, two pounds of mutton, one pound of green onion, black soy sauce and salt..." The method of making sesame pancakes naturally popped into my mind, and my hands moved quickly. After the meat was cooked, I immediately started making pancakes and grilling them.
Servants came in and out, carrying baskets of steamed biscuits outside. The soldiers sat on the ground inside and outside the courtyard, grabbing biscuits and eating them.
Fuzhong also provides some sour water, which tastes extremely delicious.
Two cakes per person, eaten quickly.
Officers above the rank of deputy deputy were sitting in the side hall, eating thin ring cakes, fish soup, pickled water, and even preserved meat. Their treatment was much better than that of ordinary sergeants.
The so-called thin ring cake, as the name suggests, is named after its ring shape. It is a kind of fried food. After passing through the oil, although the color turns green, it is crispy and delicious, and is very delicious.
"I heard that the craftsmen who make alfalfa are so rich that they have more concubines than Mr. Chen."
"Everyone in the house asks him to buy oil. Of course he is rich."
"At the beginning of the year, a few apprentices started working and opened shops. It's not that difficult to buy alfalfa oil in Xuchang."
"Leaving the army so soon?"
"The condition for Mr. Chen to buy alfalfa oil from him was that he would have more disciples and not hide his secrets. Now it seems that he really did not dare to hide his secrets."
"That's very good. I like to be particular about food. Mr. Chen will satisfy my taste."
In the eating and drinking room, the officers whispered to each other.
Most people are quite satisfied with their current lives. Mr. Chen has changed so much and brought so many benefits to everyone.
On the other hand, the content of the chat among senior military officers was more related to the current situation.
"Probably he won't hit Wang Mi anymore." Yuan Xi said, "The Lord is still expecting me to avenge him."
Liu Ling smiled and said: "Which prince is it? Is he your previous master?"
Yuan Xi's expression changed and he glared at Liu Ling angrily.
"Boom, boom, boom." Liu Ling seemed not to notice Yuan Xi's ugly face, and ate the thin ring cake as if no one else was watching, shaking his head and clicking his tongue while eating.
Cai Cheng coughed.
Yuan Xi withdrew his gaze and drank the fish soup silently.
"It doesn't matter." Cai Cheng comforted: "Hongnong will take care of it sooner or later. The Zhongwu Army will be rebuilt."
Yuan Xi cupped his hands to express his gratitude, and then asked: "The building owner doesn't think he will hit Wang Mi anymore?"
Cai Cheng was not suitable to answer this question directly, so he only said: "Sooner or later, we will fight."
Yuan Xi nodded silently.
"Building Master, when the Zhongwu Army is rebuilt, is there a shortage of military schools?" Liu Ling saw that Yuan Xi was timid and felt bored, so he asked.
"Do you want to go out?" Cai Cheng picked up a piece of dried meat and asked.
"Didn't the Jinbing Building recruit more than a hundred people? Everyone is spreading the news that at least one team will be sent to the Zhongwu Army this time." Liu Ling said.
Cai Cheng looked at him with admiration.
This guy is mean, like an aggressive rooster, offending people everywhere without realizing it, but he has a wide circle of friends, is well-informed, and is a bit interesting.
But he also frowned.
Duke Chen indeed intends to release dozens of his own soldiers who have been with him for many years to serve as junior officers of the Zhongwu Army, but this matter is still just a matter of words, and the shogunate has not yet implemented it in practice. How did the news get out?
After thinking about it, it was probably because some of the soldiers on duty were not strict with their words and said it in private.
Gotta check it out, you bastards!
"Don't worry about things that shouldn't concern you." Cai Cheng glanced at Liu Ling and said with a serious face: "Don't talk about it everywhere. If something goes wrong, you should know the consequences."
Liu Ling's face turned pale, but she didn't say anything back, but said yes.
Yuan Xi sneered, but the meaning was unclear.
Liu Ling didn't seem to notice. After drinking the fish soup, he sighed with satisfaction and said: "It's not as good as meat soup after all. The wild boar soup that I knocked down last time was really delicious. It's the first time anyone has cut it."
None of them were hit, but I don’t know what it tasted like.”
Cai Cheng kicked Liu Ling and said, "After you finish eating, go and feed the horse."
"As ordered." Liu Ling walked to the door and held the thick flagpole in his hand. After going out, he played with it a few times. The soldiers in the courtyard lowered their heads one after another, fearing that they would be swept down.
"It's fun, haha!" Liu Ling put the flagpole on his shoulders and strode away.
Cai Cheng laughed angrily at him.
This man was so stubborn, but Mr. Chen was very tolerant of him. The reason was that Liu Lingyong was astonishingly powerful.
Wearing three layers of armor and waving a powerful and heavy flagpole, he swept away a large area on the battlefield, leaving people stunned.
However, Liu Ling was also lucky, he met Mr. Chen.
If it were other people, they might not be able to tolerate his temper. This is fate.
After breakfast, it was already bright.
The soldiers silently inspected their equipment and were ready to go.
Cai Cheng went to the backyard and asked Shao Xun when to set off.
Shao Xun was serving porridge to Yu Wenjun when he said, "Please go to the outside of the hospital to form your team first."
Cai Cheng took the order and left.
Shao Xun watched his wife eating quietly.
Yu Wenjun blushed a little and felt a little reluctant to give up.
It has been almost five months since the beginning of the year. The couple worked hard for a long time, and she finally became pregnant.
That day, she cried with joy, her whole person seemed to have become mature, and she thought a lot at once.
If she was just a little girl who was greedy for her husband's tenderness before, after becoming pregnant, she has a new bond in her heart. In short, she is going to be a mother, and the child who is connected by blood will occupy a very important part of her life.
important part.
Shao Xun also keenly felt his wife's transformation.
People will always grow. Sometimes they grow with age and experience; sometimes they grow overnight because of some big event.
Wenjun's face still retains a lot of the childishness of a little girl, but it has begun to have the charm of a mature woman, which is fatally attractive to him.
She witnessed his rise.
He witnessed her growth.
At this moment, Shao Xun forgot about other women - at this moment.
To be honest, Shao Xun used to think that his little wife was very clingy, and he was a little annoyed for a while. Now that his wife has grown up, he is a little disappointed. Will Wenjun no longer be as clingy to him as before? Will he no longer be as clingy as before?
When she came home, she threw herself into his arms?
People are cheap, only when they are lost do they know how to cherish them.
"Husband, you should put state affairs first." After Yu Wenjun finished eating, he said softly: "I will take care of everything at home."
Shao Xun was slightly stunned. His words were not like Yu Wenjun's previous style. She was more like a qualified and calm matron, rather than his obsessed little girlfriend.
"Okay." Shao Xun said.
"Come back early, I'll be counting the days to wait for you." Yu Wenjun couldn't help but added.
This is the taste! It’s the right taste! Shao Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
His women seemed to be too mature, which made him a little tired of aesthetics, and he needed something different to spice things up.
"Will you conquer it yourself?" Yu Wenjun asked again.
"It's hard to say, it depends on the situation."
"There are dozens of assistants in the shogunate and tens of thousands of soldiers. There is no need to do everything personally. The soldiers also have the opportunity to make meritorious deeds."
"Yeah." Shao Xun nodded.
If possible, he would not want to fight in person.
But if the core force of the Silver Spear Army is handed over to others and taken out, I always feel uneasy.
What if someone else messes up?
It is really difficult to replace the 6,000 veterans of the Silver Spear Left Camp. After the entire army is annihilated, we must then shout in pain: "Give me back the legion!"
By the way, the Silver Spear Left Camp has been withdrawn. The order just issued was to replace them with the 3,000 soldiers recruited. They rode to Heyang North City to change the defense, and the other 3,000 troops slowly walked on foot.
Convergence.
But this army will not be able to rest for long.
If we go on an expedition to Hebei, it is not safe to rely solely on the 6,000 men of the Silver Spear Right Battalion.
There are still 6,000 men, but there is a huge difference in combat effectiveness between the left and right camps.
"I'm leaving." Shao Xun wiped his wife's mouth with silk and said.
"Yes." Yu Wenjun hugged him. He was about to say something about missing his children, but he stopped and said, "Husband, don't worry about your family. I'll take care of everything."
"Okay." Shao Xun responded.
Really grown up!
After arriving at the courtyard with his wife, Cai Cheng had been waiting for a long time. Yang Qin carried a spear, heavy sword, spare bow tip, and quiver for him.
Shao Xun then looked at his parents, Le and Lu, and his two sons who were out to see him off.
"This is not the first time we have gone on an expedition. Let's go home and have a good rest." Shao Xun said with a smile.
"I have said some things many times, but I still can't help but say them." Shao's father warned: "I don't know how many people are relying on you now. If something happens to you, they will all be in disaster. Don't take risks, just
It doesn’t matter if you lose one or two times. I think back then, when I went on expeditions with the generals, it’s not like I never suffered defeat——”
"That's enough." Shao's mother grabbed Shao's father and complained: "If you give up before we go out to fight, if my grandpa catches you, I will kill him directly."
Father Shao laughed and stopped talking.
The voice of his old father-in-law was a little blurry. He only remembered carrying a big sword and killing anyone who retreated.
I was very afraid of him back then, and I even felt that he was very cruel to me, but I didn't expect that I actually agreed to marry my daughter to him in the end.
Their generation's time has passed.
Now it was his nephews who jumped onto the stage, but he always felt that it seemed more dangerous. Listening to the chatter of the soldiers, he learned that there was actually a Hu Qi riding an armored horse to fight, which he had never encountered before.
The barbarians are not as easy to fight as before, alas.
Shao Xun hugged two more children, then looked at Leshi and Lushi.
The two of them had just heard what Shao's father said was serious, and their faces turned a little pale.
Shao Xun laughed and said: "No need to worry, just go and come back."
After leaving the house, a messenger delivered a letter from Attendant Lu Zhi.
After taking it apart, I found that it was about Hebei.
Shile attacked Guangzong Shangbai where the Beggar Army was entrenched, killed several of the Beggar Army commanders, and captured all his soldiers.
Wang Jun was greatly frightened and sent Zaosong, the governor of Jizhou, to garrison troops in Yishui, and hurriedly led his troops back to reinforce him.
Duanbu Xianbei was furious and accused Wang Jun of betrayal, but Wang Jun ignored him.
Murong Xianbei took advantage of the situation to attack fiercely, and Duan Bu retreated steadily.
"It seems that Wang Jun can't stand it any longer." Shao Xun sighed with emotion.
As a popular figure in the early and middle stages of the Eight Kings Rebellion, Wang Jun stole the show, but he was actually a typical example of me and Kobe Bryant scoring 81 points together.
During Liu Bogen's rebellion in Qingzhou, Wang Jun pacified it, and it was the Xianbei cavalry who took action.
Wang Jun defeated Sima Ying's army and invaded Yecheng. The decisive battle was fought by the Xianbei cavalry.
When Shi Le was defeated in the Battle of Feilong Mountain, the Xianbei people also sent a small number of sergeants to participate in the battle. Because of the small number, they hardly caused any damage to Shi Le, and even allowed him to run away with the looted goods.
As long as Shi Le can be quelled, Wang Jun can also be killed, because he and his son-in-law seem to have fallen out.
This happened!
"Send an order to Heyang to prepare ships, the more the better." Shao Xun got on his horse and ordered.
"The grain and grass transported to Xingyang were transported to Aocang for temporary storage with Yang Bao's dispatch of ships."
"Xiangcheng and Yingchuan Arsenal have allocated 1,500 chariots and sent them to Heyang."
"Send an order to Li Chong to select sergeants to build a pontoon bridge in Zhujin, Puyang."
"Send an order to Guang Chengze to allocate a thousand horses."
"To Xiangcheng—discuss with Princess Xiangcheng and lend me a thousand mules."
"The Yi Congjun took all the horses and assembled at Heyang."
"The entire Silver Spear Right Battalion is heading to Heyang, and the field army will be dispatched after the summer sowing."
"Send an order to Liu Shan, the governor of the tent, that Xuchang's soldiers will take turns harvesting and sowing seeds in the summer. There must not be less than four thousand defenders in Xuchang City at any time."
The civil servants drafted the orders on the spot, and then sent them to the shogunate by courier, where they were handed over to the assistants and assistants.
Because the troops had not yet been officially dispatched, Shao Xun did not assign Xuchang to stay behind.
Since the New Year, Cao Fu has been ill again, probably soon, and now there is a shortage of suitable left-behind officials.
After thinking about it, maybe we can only assign a few people to stay together and make decisions together.
But there is no need to rush this matter. We should go to Luoyang first and then talk about it.
Chapter completed!
