Chapter 348 The best education
Anyway, it was too hot to go north, so Hu Maozhen went straight into the house and wrote a letter to Gao Shuai and the governor. Although he was from a soldier in the Boluo Fort camp, he always took time to read and write between the troops. Compared with the illiterate Zhenshang Gao Jie and his colleague Li Chengdong, he was simply a scholar.
"Old Hu is like a Bodhisattva, but he has the heart of a Bodhisattva, and we don't have the ability of a Bodhisattva. So many people move south, can we do it? It's okay if you are willing, but if you are unwilling to force them with a knife? If you are forced to force it, it will arouse local resistance, so why don't you shoot yourself in the foot?"
When Li Chengdong was talking to his general Du Yonghe outside, another commander of his subordinate Hao Shangjiu ran in with a scream.
"Lu Shuai, Xiaohu is back, Xiaohu is back!"
Hao Shangjiu and Du Yonghe are the two most capable players under Li Chengdong's troops. Du Yonghe is good at defending and Hao Shangjiu is good at attacking.
After Li Chengdong followed Gao Jie and reorganized into the sixth town of the Huai Army, Du Yonghe and Hao Shangjiu served as their subordinate Biaotong. The other Biaotong was Li Chengdong's fellow villager Yan Keyi, and the master of the archer and horse of Chengdong's adopted son Yuan Yin.
This Yan Keyi is even more amazing. He was an authentic scholar who rebelled and was also the only general with fame and fame in Gaojie's army.
Li Chengdong's nickname is Hu Zi, and his adopted son Yuan Yin is naturally called Xiaohu by his soldiers.
"Where is my son? I miss your father so much!"
When he heard that his adopted son was back, Li Chengdong jumped out of the basin and rushed towards Hao Shangjiu before he even had time to wear his shoes, but Yuan Yin was not seen.
"Where is my son?" Li Chengdong wondered.
Hao Shangjiu grinned and said, "Lu Shang, Xiaohu is at the city gate!"
When Li Chengdong heard that Yuan Yin had not come, he became anxious: "Why don't you bring him here to see me!"
Hao Shangjiu hurriedly said, "Lu Shuai, Xiaohu couldn't come by himself. He said there was something good to you and Shuai Hu to see."
"What good thing? What reward did this kid get from the governor? Do you want to be filial to his father?" Li Chengdong was happy.
"I don't know either. Xiaohu said that you must go over with Hu Shuai to see this thing. I want to take a look at it first and never allow it."
Hao Shangjiu saw water in the basin on the ground, so he bent down and held it on his chest, which was so cool.
Li Chengdong said "hey" and wanted to call Hu Maozhen. The latter had already pushed the door out and cursed at him with an unhappy look: "Li Huzi, you said you were blind and called something yesterday. I can't be safe when I write a letter."
"Stop writing, follow me quickly!"
Li Chengdong stepped forward and pulled Hu Maozhen over and ran out of the yamen.
"Where to go? Where to go! I still have something to do!"
Hu Maozhen was pulled straight to the point.
"City Gate! My son is back!"
"Ah? OK!"
When Li Chengdong and Hu Maozhen ran to the city gate with a big sun, they saw Li Yuanyin and Li Yuanyin sitting in the city gate with a group of subordinates to enjoy the cool air.
"You are so happy, but your father is so hot,"
Li Chengdong stepped forward and cursed and raised his hand to Yuan Yin, "What is the mysterious thing? You have to run over in a hot day."
After saying that, before Yuan Yin opened his mouth, he turned him back and forth and looked at him carefully.
"Dad, I will not get hurt when I follow the governor. Look at what you are worried about, I am not young anymore. I will take care of myself."
Li Yuanyin grinned.
"No matter how big the penis is, it's my son. My father cares about his son yesterday? Is it illegal?"
Li Chengdong really regarded this adopted son as his own son and gave birth to a child. In fact, Yuan Yin's adopted son is his heir because he has no son.
Du Yonghe, Hao Shangjiu and Hu Maozhen's generals rushed over after hearing the news. Seeing Li Yuanyin, the generals came forward to greet him, and they all looked close to each other. This little tiger was also what they saw since childhood.
"Xiaohu, this car is the good thing you brought to your father? Good, how many big cars are you sending it! Well, let me see what it is first,"
Hu Maozhen smiled and reached out and touched the carriage with a sackcloth and hay. He lifted a corner of the sackcloth and touched it in. He felt something pinched and lifted it out, and then threw the thing far away with a "ahhh".
Li Chengdong, Du Yonghe and others also changed their faces.
It turned out that what Hu Maozhen raised from the car was actually a human head.
"Xiaohu, are you using this thing to honor your father?"
Hao Shangjiu's mouth was a little crooked. It was not because he thought this thing was unlucky, but because this thing was stinky in hot weather and was prone to epidemics.
Li Chengdong also looked puzzled, not knowing what his adopted son is doing.
"This is?"
Yan Keyi squatted down and looked carefully at the head rolling under his feet. Suddenly, his eyes trembled and shouted in a trembling voice: "It's a braided soldier!"
"Pird Soldier?!"
Everyone was shocked and looked at Yan Keyi's feet at the same time.
"It's a braid soldier!"
No proof is needed, Yan Keyi is holding a braid in his hand.
Just when everyone was surprised, Li Yuanyin yelled: "Dad, uncles and uncles, this is not an ordinary braided soldier, it is a real Manchu!"
"Really Manchuria?"
Li Chengdong, Hu Maozhen and others were shocked again.
Li Yuanyin waved to his subordinates without saying a word and shouted, "It's overturned!"
As the linen and hay on the four large trucks were lifted up, the generals took a breath. It turned out that the lime laid under the linen were the heads of one braided soldiers.
In the slightly dim city gate cave, it is extremely terrifying.
Li Yuanyin picked up two heads, raised them up, and said, "It's hot, and the Tartars' heads can't be kept. The governor asked someone to spread them with lime and salt. I've seen it on the road. The effect is OK, and it doesn't rot at all!"
Yan Keyi reached out and grabbed a handful of lime. Sure enough, there was a lot of salt in the lime. It smelled not very good, but it didn't taste raw.
"All the heads of real Manchu soldiers?"
Hu Maozhen breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and took a head from Li Yuanyin, pinched his head and chin without any dirt, and then looked into the mouth, but it had a yellow teeth.
"It's really a Manchurian Tartar!"
Hu Maozhen was excited.
He once heard from the Ministry of War that we should not only look at the braids when checking whether the enemy's head is true Manchu, because some braids are Han and Mongols, and some braids are braids that are shaved after killing Liang and Gong. Therefore, to verify whether they are true Manchus, they must check their teeth. The reason is that the manchus not only look different from the Han people, but also have two characteristics: sharp and yellow.
"I don't look like us Han people, I'm a real Manchu!"
Yan Keyi nodded. The Manchus called the Han people Nikan. If anyone looked like the Han people, they would name it Nikan.
"These Manchurian Tartars?"
Hu Maozhen looked at Li Yuanyin.
"The governor defeated the Qing army in Qihe and beheaded three thousand, one thousand of them."
Li Yuanyin excitedly told the battle of Qihema Guantun. All the generals were shocked after hearing this and felt incredible.
"Dad, Uncle Hu, the governor said that the Manchu Tartars are the same as us. They all have one bird on the head, two arms and two legs, not three heads and six arms, nor are they any evil spirits. So they asked each town to divide some for the soldiers to see so that everyone could think that the Tartars were so fierce."
The same scene is being performed in Tai'an No. 1 Town, Kaifeng No. 5 Town, and Yizhou No. 2 Town.
After the heads of the True Manchu and Han Army captured in the Battle of Qiguan were "exhibited" in various towns, they will also be sent to Xuzhou, Huai'an and Yangzhou, so that the officials and civilians in the rear could see what the Tartars were.
Lu Si said nothing is more educative than seeing it with his own eyes.
