Shao Shude received two letters almost at the same time. At that time, he was inspecting the construction progress of the Tianjin Bridge and discussed geometry and mechanics with the Imperial College students who participated in the construction.
Everyone still doesn’t know much about mechanics. We have experience and summaries, but we haven’t refined the theory yet.
Shao Shude had a good chat with them, talked about some of his understanding of mechanics, and asked the students to continue summarizing.
Last year's Xia King Award was awarded to Master Mani because he wrote a textbook called "Geometry".
The content is so-so and relatively superficial. Shao Shude highly suspects that Master Mani mixed together fragments of knowledge copied from unknown sources and then revised them into a book.
But it doesn’t matter. This book still has great value, and most of the content has not been covered by mathematicians in the Central Plains. It is not a loss to award the 3,600 yuan reward to Master Mani.
After returning to Hehuan Hall, he carefully reviewed the letter.
The first letter was sent by Lu Huaizhong, focusing on the prince's arrival in Hexi.
After Shao Shude read it, he had no reaction for a while. After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to send an envoy over to persuade his son to return to Baqiao Camp.
War is not for you to show off. As a fourteen-year-old, you have to know the importance. It is okay to follow the main force to gain experience, but it is not okay to rush to the battlefield like in the Wei Sheng Army.
However, he also admired his son's courage. Dare to fight the enemy face to face, which is not easy for a person who grew up in a wealthy life. Li Keyong's son Li Luoluo and Li Cunxu were like an aggressive rooster and liked to wrestle with others.
, likes to compete with others in archery skills, and likes to kill on the front line. Sometimes I feel envious when I think about it.
But a certain degree of stability is still required.
With his identity, nothing unexpected happens.
It's not that Shao Shude is afraid. He has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands. As long as he is alive for one day, no relatives or generals can make trouble. It's just that there is really no need. His life has been full of twists and turns, internal turmoil, and people's hearts are in chaos. I don't know how much time it will take.
How many hands and feet are needed to deal with the endgame.
The second letter is amazing.
The name of the letter writer is Zhu Quanyu, whose real name is Zhu Yu. His identity is very ordinary, and he is a farmer in Dangshan. But he is very extraordinary, because he is Zhu Quanzhong's eldest brother, and he once led the military envoy of Lingnan West Road.
Zhu Quanyu was illiterate, so it was obviously written by someone else, but the meaning was very clear. He wanted to take back Zhu Quanzhong's coffin and take it back to Dangshan Township for burial.
Shao Shude still had some respect for this old man. When he learned that Zhu Quanyu was still staying in Luoyang, he immediately invited him to Hehuan Hall.
"Meet Your Highness." Zhu Quanyu saluted as soon as he arrived.
"Sit down." Shao Shude ordered, and then looked at the old man carefully.
Zhu Quanyu has white hair, and the wrinkles on his face are like the ravines on the Loess Plateau, bottomless.
His eyes are a little cloudy, but he is more energetic than the average old man. It can be seen that after the improvement of his family situation, his life is still very good.
"I agree to what Zhu Weng asked for." Shao Shude said: "Quan Zhong has great kindness to the people of Henan, and there are countless people alive, so I will also reward you highly. Now I will give you weapons, chariots and horses, money and silk, and I will accompany you back to Dangshan Mountain.
Let’s have a good burial.”
Zhu Quanyu didn't expect that the matter could be accomplished so easily, and was stunned for a moment.
Shao Shude smiled. In front of such an old man, he was not willing to talk empty words or clichés. He just listened to him say: "Quan Zhong and I are just fighting in the world. There is no right or wrong. Go back, Junzhi Lingnan West Road Festival
As an envoy, you can still receive your monthly salary from a distance, and the imperial court will pay it on time, so there will be no shortage."
Zhu Quanyu actually didn't care about Jiedushi. His three sons were dead, so what else could he do? Now he just wanted to go back to his hometown of Dangshan, farm the fields and live out his remaining days.
However, after hearing the words "the world's struggle", I still felt a little sentimental.
He is a Tang Dynasty person and a Tang official. The Li family is not unkind to him, and there is nothing they can do.
"Your Highness has great ambitions, and he knows all about them." Zhu Quanyu suddenly said: "The world has been in chaos for so many years, and the people have suffered! It's difficult! If it was still a prosperous time, my second and third brothers... Sigh! I hope Your Highness will treat the people well. If this is true.
, I always sing praises to His Highness whenever I see him."
"Good!" Shao Shude said with a smile: "All the people in the world, whether they are Tibetan or Han, are my sons. I should give them a peaceful and prosperous age."
"Your Highness is a trustworthy person, I would like to thank you." Zhu Quanyu thanked him.
"I have sent people to release the children of the Zhu family who were captured before. They will go back in a while. From now on, they will live on their own in Dangshan. Don't think too much about it." Shao Shude stood up, helped Zhu Quanyu up with his own hands, and said warmly.
He was referring to Zhu Cun's son Zhu Youning, Zhu Quanzhong's adopted son Zhu Yourang, and Zhu Youwen.
Zhu Yourang was captured by the cavalry army in Luoyang in his early years. Later, he kept herding sheep and horses in Heishui City, married Hu Nu, and had a child.
Zhu Youning was also captured in Luoyang and sent to the Xishicheng Ranch in Huizhou. He was already married to a Qiang girl. Youning's younger brother Youlun died in the Wei family the year before last. Zhu Cun finally had a descendant.
Zhu Quanyu's sons Youliang, Youneng, and Youjie all died.
Except for his eldest son Zhu Youyu and his third son Zhu Yougui, all of Zhu Quanzhong's children are alive.
The adopted son and second son Zhu Youwen was hit by an arrow in the shoulder when Bianzhou City was destroyed. After recovering from his injuries, he was sent to work on the construction site of Luoyang Palace City. This time he was released together.
Most of the other children, who were still young, were awarded to meritorious generals along with their mother, and Shao Shude did not bother to care about their situation.
Only Zhu Youzhen, born to Zhang Hui, and Zhu Youzhang, born to Shi, are still in Luoyang. In addition, Zhu Quanzhong has two slightly older daughters, one ten and one nine years old, who are also staying with their aunt Zhu.
Live in Hanjiadian and take care of the experimental field.
Generally speaking, Shao Shude was kind to the Zhu family and did not kill them all.
"Your Highness is really generous." When Zhu Quanyu heard this, he burst into tears, knelt on the ground and thanked him.
"You are a real person, go back, no one will cause trouble for you," Shao Shude said.
Zhu Quanyu is actually an honest farmer, without any ambition and very responsible.
Historically, when Zhu Quanzhong was preparing for the abdication ceremony, Zhu Quanyu asked him directly: "Zhu San, are you a good (emperor)?"
After Zhu Quanzhong became emperor, he held a family banquet in the palace. A group of people were playing dice. Zhu Quanyu was half drunk and smashed the dice into a basin. He felt unhappy and asked: "Zhu San, a citizen of Rudang Mountain, because of the famine in the world,
, entered Huangchao and became a thief, the emperor used you as the governor of the four towns, you are rich and noble, why did you destroy the Li family for three hundred years and claim you as king and me."
Zhu Quanyu did not want to enjoy the wealth in Bianzhou and spent most of his time in his hometown in Dangshan. It was not until Zhu Quanzhong became seriously ill that he hurried back to Bianzhou and held Zhu Quanzhong's hand and cried bitterly.
Li Cunxu entered Bianzhou and killed all the Zhu family, leaving only Zhu Quanyu's branch.
But now Zhu Quanyu's three sons have died in his own hands, and Shao Shude is also helpless. Fortune has its way with people.
After a casual chat, Shao Shude asked a few people who had been officially designated as officials of Honglu Temple to choose the murder weapon and accompanied Zhu Quanyu back to Dangshan.
In the afternoon, Pengcheng County's wife Zhu and others were asked to meet Zhu Quanyu.
Mrs. Zhu tied a tulle around her waist and tightened her slightly bulging belly to make sure that there was no abnormality in appearance. Then she met her brother and cried in each other's arms.
Shao Shude continued to review documents in Hehuan Hall.
Tianxiong's army envoy Zang Dubao invited him to Taihangxing to attack Tianjing Pass.
Shao Shude thought for a long time and finally agreed.
Zelu, it would be great if he could have it in his own hands.
Historically, when Li Hanzhi led Zelu to surrender to Zhu Quanzhong, Hedong's unique geographical advantage suddenly collapsed, and other passes no longer had to be guarded. It was meaningless. Liang Jun went north from Shangdang and headed straight to Taiyuan City.
But after Ding Hui and Luzhou surrendered, Liang Jun could no longer touch Taiyuan.
In the later Zhou Dynasty, Guo Rong attacked the Northern Han Dynasty. If Zelu had not been controlled by the Central Plains court, he probably would not have been able to defeat Jinyang City.
After Zhao Er destroyed the Northern Han Dynasty, he also went north from Zelu and besieged Taiyuan.
Shangdang, the best route to attack Hedong, Shao Shude punched it on the map. If he couldn't win it, he could only try his luck from Yanmen Pass in the north. Or he could detour to Hebei and try several passes in the east.
"Order the Xiaojie army on the left side to go north to attack Cizhou and contain the Jin army's strength." Shao Shude ordered.
Secretary-supervisor Lu Siye began to write orders.
Shao Shude closed his eyes, and the entire battlefield was imprinted in his mind like a picture.
The battlefield in the river is for the Western Front.
The Jin army moved south from Lanshi and had already broken through Xizhou. It seemed that they planned to advance further towards Cizhou. On Wuling Road, there were also Jin soldiers who broke into Jinjiang from time to time. To the north of Fenshui Pass, there were Jin soldiers who were out of danger at Diguan.
Wall town, activities everywhere.
The latter two groups should all be suspect soldiers, and we haven't seen them show serious action so far. However, there are only 8,000 Jin soldiers in the Xizhou group, and they don't seem to be the main force.
The entire battlefield seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog.
The Heyang and Zelu battlefields were called the center line by Shao Shude.
Along the way, he will launch an active attack and attack Tianjingguan. If it fails, it doesn't matter. If he retreats, it won't affect the overall situation.
In the phase of defense, Xing Mingci is on the eastern front. He also takes the initiative to attack, but it is also a diversionary one. However, if the main force of the Jin army appears here, the effect will be that the two armies will be suddenly transferred to the defense on the spot. Shao Shude will personally lead the Tiande army to the north for reinforcements.
Xiang Wei met Li Keyong.
After May, if there are still no results in the eastern, central and western battlefields, Shao Shude plans to raise his stakes and open another northern battlefield. I wonder if Li Keyong dares to follow.
If the Jin army sticks to the Lanshi Mountain area, the line between Diandi Pass and Gaobi Town, Tianjing Pass and Malaoguan Pass, and Yanmen Pass, Shao Shude really feels that it is difficult to fight and there is nowhere to attack. But if they come out of their turtle shells to fight in the field, then
This opportunity must not be passed up.
Of course, it doesn't matter even if you can't defend, then sit back and watch me slowly finish Yan and Xu Erzhen, then attack Wei Bo and Xing Mingci. If you still pretend to be dead, then take Datong and then attack Chengde.
In Cangjing, Yiding and even Youzhou, can you continue to hide in a tortoise shell?
After the military orders were passed out one after another, the various ministries immediately began to take action.
