This city, which was not very eye-catching or majestic in the first place, has experienced several large-scale battles in this year. The city gate alone was breached three times, and the city walls were even more devastated. The new and old patches allow travelers who come here to feel the intensity and cruelty of the wars that took place here, even if they just look at it from a distance.
However, thankfully, the flag of the Bingzhou Army is still flying here. This also means that even after such a difficult battle, the Bingzhou people are still the masters of this place and still guard the territory under their rule.
However, at this time, the atmosphere in Gaoliu City was not as pleasant as it appeared on the surface. The streets were sparsely populated, except for soldiers patrolling with weapons, and occasionally one or two pedestrians passed by in a hurry. Everyone has a sad look on their face, and after taking a few steps, they can't help but look up at the sky, or in the direction of the prefect's mansion, and then quickly lower their heads, as if nothing happened just now. , and so on, so that travelers passing by here are completely confused.
What is going on? Why do the soldiers and civilians in this city look so weird? Could it be that something big happened? !
At the prefect¡¯s mansion in Gaoliu City.
In terms of pure area, this mansion can definitely be called a prefect's mansion. When Li Shushi was the prefect in Xihe, the prefect's mansion in Lishi City was not as big as the one in Gaoliu City. big.
But even if you were standing outside the gate of the Prefect's Mansion, you would not think that this would be the highest administrative body of the entire Dai County.
Because of everything except floor space. This prefecture is really sorry for its identity and status.
The outer wall is incomplete in many places, and there are even two places where it has completely collapsed. There are countless other "minor problems" such as cracking, and on almost every section of the wall, you can clearly see a Typhoid fever is caused everywhere by being cut by swords and other weapons. If you look carefully, you can also find arrow clusters stuck in the cracks of the wall that have not been recovered. As for other similar gouge injuries caused by being hit by feather arrows There are also countless injuries, even several times more than those caused by swords.
As for the prefect¡¯s mansion, there are no rockeries of plants and trees that represent leisure and elegance. Pavilions and pavilions. In other words, there should have been these things here that represented the owner's style, but now, they have become a bare place, but it is very clean. But if you identify it carefully. It is possible to identify the facilities that originally existed here from some clues.
The only one in the prefecture that looks decent. It is a residence used for resting in the government office. It looks brand new, although it cannot be said to be very grand. But as long as something is new, it will definitely give people a slightly cheerful feeling.
However, when you go around the entire office of the government office, this new feeling will turn into an emotion of astonishment.
If you can still remember the traces on the wall, maybe you will understand what happened here.
Those fierce battles obviously completely destroyed this place, and the buildings that have been rebuilt now are probably just temporary buildings, and they may turn into a pile of ruins and rubble again.
But even though the prefect's government office, which is the face of the county, has become what it is now, surprisingly, the public security in the city is very good. Even if there is an occasional dispute, a third party will soon come forward and the matter will be resolved quickly. There are very few situations that require the presence of the prefectural government or the county government.
County government office, county government office Well, if you can still find a rough idea of ??the prefect's mansion, then you will definitely not find anything called a county government office in Gaoliu City. Although we don't know where the county government went, we can make some guesses from the state of the empty areas in Gaoliu City. After all, if all kinds of rolling wood and thunder stones are needed, the materials of the county government should obviously be stronger and more durable.
This is Gaoliu today, it looks so dilapidated.
But even with such a dilapidated city, the soldiers and civilians in the city seem to be very uneasy, but no enemy dares to target this place anymore, because the soldiers and civilians here have proved their unyielding strength with iron and blood.
Of course, the price paid was as painful as their enemies.
Stepping on some remaining rubble that had not been cleaned up, making a rustling sound, a slender figure walked out of one of the few large rooms in the prefecture, and stayed there, which was completely blank. In "Back Garden", his eyes are full of confusion.
? ??What's the situation? Should I make some preparations for the funeral, or prepare a 'lucky lunch' as ??the Lord said. "
Suddenly, a deep voice came from nowhere. Although the words seem to have a stronger flavor of ridicule, if you just look at the tone, you can't think of the word "ridicule" in any case, and you may even feel that the other party must have seriously thought about the feasibility of the content of the words. , rather than as a joke to lighten the mood.
"Sure enough, just like your strategy, it always makes people feel completely cold, just like those gods."
"I don't understand things about gods. Just like I never think about those mysterious people who often appear around my lord, I don't try to understand things that will put me into huge trouble. But My coldness is what the lord needs, and since the lord has given me a very safe environment, I will pay a sufficient price in return."
"But you have to know that what you call your 'Lord's' most important 'relative' is lying there now! Do you think your Lord can give you what you want after knowing what is going on here? Those things?"
"Haha, I don't think these words should come from your mouth. Although I have no intention of exploring where you come from, I still know to some extent the unusually close connection between you and the lord. Even if you are actually all the time I¡¯m not resisting this connection, but it¡¯s been so long and you still can¡¯t fundamentally change it, am I right?¡±
"Don't you think this kind of behavior is a fool to the deceased, especially turning such a proud person into what he is now"
"Maybe, but judging from my many years of life experience, it may be a cruel thing to give up other precious things in order to get something, but if you want to get everything, you will end up getting nothing. Not even."
"I know. I know. But just because I know, and clearly know the reason for everything, it makes it even more uncomfortable!"
"It's just like what the lord said, maybe you are more suitable to be a woman. When you cry, you are no different from ordinary women."
"I am a complete woman now, okay! Even if I really like crying and don't look like a man, it's not my fault!"
"Do you think that for the person you value, does it hurt her more to lose you, or is it just something that has increased or decreased in her body? Your friend thinks more clearly about this matter than you, my lord. The same is true. That's why people like me can be accepted by the Lord, because if he wants to achieve his ideals, people like me and my means must exist."
" were created and then destroyed, once hated each other, but finally fell in love with each other, were happy because of meeting, and hated because of separation, moved by being together, and sad because they had to be alone, happiness is always like this short¡¡"
"Even if you are doomed to the eternal sleep of death, at least you will be happy because of the momentary encounter, right?"
"This doesn't look like something someone like you would say."
"I just recently read some translated religious books from Kushan, and I have some feelings about them."
"But for the dead, they can leave with the good things they once had, but for the living, the pain and blow"
"I'm not dead yet, you two bastards don't discuss things that come and go after death. Are you planning to curse me to death!!!"
Just as the conversation between the sinister man hiding in the shadows and the green-haired woman standing in the open space "enjoying" the sunshine fell into a strange state, suddenly, a huge sound echoed in the empty yard, and the green-haired woman stood in the open space and "enjoyed" the sunshine. An old man with a cane, white beard and hair, and an angry face suddenly rushed out of the room where the green-haired girl was staying just now, and slapped the green-haired girl in the face.
Facing the old man who was blowing his beard and staring, the green-haired girl no longer had the melancholy and sad talk about life and death on her face. Instead, she immediately closed her eyes tightly and crouched down with her head in her arms. As she got closer, she could faintly hear "I am made of clay." "It's not delicious, it's not delicious at all." With such unclear words, some kind of magical liquid with the scientific name of salt water mixture appeared faintly in the corner of his eyes.
Although it looked quite unimpressive, it succeeded in making the old man who raised the cane no longer able to do anything. He could only stare at the wonderful existence in front of him that exuded the aura of "Come on and bully me" and sighed fiercely. He sighed and stamped the crutch in his hand vigorously.
It¡¯s just a pity that although this appearance was like a bolt from the blue, it was really thunderous, but soon
"I just didn't pay attention, why did I run out again? Then?Didn¡¯t the witch doctor say that you need to rest and don¡¯t get angry? How disobedient! "
Along with this complaining voice, the old man who was so high-spirited just now suddenly became depressed, and his face showed a completely opposite and flattering expression - exactly the same as the reaction of the green-haired girl just now, but unfortunately the speaker was obviously different. The old man was so cruel that he didn't even give the old man a chance to speak. He used all his strength to get the old man back into the house again, almost using a "resistance" method. He only left the famous line like a meteor flashing outside the house: "I'm still here." Will be back¡±!
"Have you, sir, decided how to write this battle report?"
Two people rushed out, but only one person was needed to carry the old man back. The other person did not return to the house. Instead, he stood not far from the green-haired girl and said to the clear sky above his head. .
This is of course not the release of unique brainwave signals to a civilization in outer space. Naturally, people who receive these acoustic signals will not make mistakes in their understanding.
"There were many surprises in this battle, and the strength of these unexpected enemies was far beyond imagination, which made me make a big omission in my calculations. It can be said that if the teacher had not felt something and rushed thousands of miles to help, maybe this battle would have been impossible. I¡¯m afraid I¡¯m going to lose one or two generals.¡±
"What is the origin of the enemy this time? It seems to be a mystery. Although it is very unpleasant to hide his head and show his tail, his real power is surprising. If there were such characters in the enemy's formation in the Western Region, we want to I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s still quite difficult to win the final victory. It¡¯s even very possible for us to become the loser.¡±
"There is probably nothing we can do about this kind of thing. Perhaps only the lord and his wife know the inside story."
"Sir, I really think so, but perhaps there is only one explanation. The strength of those people I think it is no less than the overlord of Western Chu that I have seen before, both in terms of strength and the sense of oppression they give people. They are very of strength."
"We'll do a detailed review of these things when the master comes back. Let's talk about your master. How is the situation?"
"Master the situation is not good, because he appears very cheerful and optimistic. But this just means that the situation is bad."
Jia Xu noticed that the fatigue and haggardness on Zhao Yun's pretty face was much deeper than in the past few days, and he knew that the situation was probably a little worse than what he said. It should be noted that some time ago, even if he faced a powerful enemy, After staying awake for three consecutive days and nights, Zhao Yun was only slightly tired, but now he could clearly see signs that were different from the past on his face. It is conceivable that Zhao Yun had been injured in the past few days because of the injury of his master Tong Yuan. Love has taken so much effort, but Zhang Xiu in the house may not be much better.
"Don't look at him holding a cane right now as if he's going to fight someone for three hundred rounds, but you know, last night he sneaked out while we weren't paying attention and planned to have some fun with his beloved spear. But after just a few swings, the spear that would never leave his hand no matter what, even if he died, fell to the ground so weakly. In addition, we also found the master there who wanted to cover it up but couldn't because of the darkness. The blood stains were completely covered up Do you understand what I'm talking about?"
"Being unable to swing a spear that is not too heavy, and bleeding when wielding it, is obviously a sign that both arms are disabled. Coupled with some reactions in daily life, it can be basically concluded that recovery is hopeless. Also, isn't Gongming in the same situation now? Is he in a semi-wasted state? It¡¯s just that Gongming is a young man after all. He has enough energy and blood and a strong body. There is always the possibility of recovery. But even so, it is very difficult to make further progress in martial arts. I am also a Taoist priest after all. , I still dabble in these things.
In addition, Zilong, you are actually in the same state now. With the same strength as an overlord, even the female warrior whom the lord found from who knows where has suffered a lot. Your strength is not as good as Fengxian and Fengxian. It must be very hard for Bo Ren and the others to block it. I remember that even if you are not in the army, you still have to practice for at least an hour every morning. "
"I still need to take care of my master, so how can I be in the mood to practice martial arts? On the contrary, I am even more restless. It is better to stop for a few days and wait until my heart calms down, then work harder. Is it possible that sir can still do it when he is upset? Taste the samadhi in the book."
Regarding Zhao Yun¡¯s answer, Jia Xu seemed a little noncommittal. After a while, he said again:
"Based on the current situation, Zilong, do you think Master Su Wen can take on the affairs of Dai County? You must know that Yang Wenxian's body is still cold, and Master Su Wen was also seriously injured in this battle. Although he was brave and resourceful, The enemy is also far from good."
"This is not something that a general like me should get involved in, right? I just pretended that I didn't listen."??As good. "
"General Zilong had a different idea. This war is basically commanded by you, so naturally you are the one who will report all this to the lord in the end. So you should also think about the related issues in advance. The lord may I might as well ask for your opinion.¡±
Su Wenshi's name was Su Ze. He was a talented person from Fufeng martial arts. He became famous in the prefecture and county at a very young age. He was promoted to be Xiaolian and Maocai. However, just like the habits of most celebrities in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xiaolian and Maocai were natural. It is extremely welcome, but you have to think twice before becoming an official, and the result of thinking twice is basically to stay at home, and it seems that even eight cows can't pull you away.
Such a person, faced with Li Shushi's conquest, did not resist as much as before. This is probably because he is not young anymore and has reached the age where he should think about his family, and Li Shushi does not like the officialdom of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The style is just right in Guanzhong. Naturally, he will implement his "New Deal" - if you want to be an official, ask Ma Liu to come out; if you don't plan to be an official, Bingzhou Army will not force it, but if you don't say that you can only stay at home for the rest of your life. Even your descendants may not get the chance to serve as officials, and because of your lack of cooperation, you and your family are suspected of collaborating with the enemy. You need to pay close attention. As long as a little evidence is collected, it is absolutely possible to exterminate the family, not to mention confiscating the family. Make you peel off your skin. Anyway, I won¡¯t get used to the bad habit.
can only say. With years of investment in education, and having enough power in his hands as a conqueror, Li Shushi had enough confidence to implement such a decree, without the need to constantly visit people's homes and beg to see them, but still have to look at other people's moods. .
It¡¯s not a place that Li Shushi can¡¯t reach. Of course there is nothing you can do. Out of reach. His subordinates are still planning to play tricks on China, and Li Shushi doesn't mind once again attacking local tyrants to divide their land and drowning you in the vast ocean of people's war.
¡°Anyway, most landlords these days are not very clean. There is no excuse for looking for trouble.
After dealing with several unscrupulous families, whether they were from prominent families like Yang Biao or hidden in the wild like Su Ze, they all had to take up their posts in accordance with the rules set by Li Shushi, and they had to work hard in their new positions to win new positions. the favor of the regime.
In fact, Li Shushi originally planned to arrange a more important county for Su Ze, such as Liyang, Wu'an or Guantao in Wei County, Huai County in Hanoi, Anyi in Hedong, Chang'an in Jingzhao, etc., but who I once thought that after Yang Biao went to Dai County to take office, he couldn't even make a hot butt, so he was beheaded in a conspiracy.
In a hurry, Li Shushi could only send someone to quickly recall Su Ze, who was about to go to Chang'an to take up his post, and let him serve as the prefect of Daijun.
??????????????????? If it were an ordinary person, it would really be possible for them to wait for a while and wait until the situation in the north becomes clear before going to take office.
But what a good Su Wenshi, although he hid at home and refused to become an official before, but once he chose to become an official, he worked conscientiously and was not afraid of danger. He concealed the order of his imminent death from his relatives and friends, and found an excuse to go there alone. Gao Liu.
His appearance may not be of great significance to the entire war, but it can still greatly boost the morale of the frontline soldiers.
Based on his performance in this war, it can be said that as long as Su Ze performs well in the next three to five years, even if he cannot be promoted to the high position of state governor, he may not be able to become the governor of important counties such as Jingzhao and Luoyang. What's getting in the way.
"Mr. Wenhe is right, Yun has learned a lesson."
After thinking for a long time, Zhao Yun saluted to the dark place, and then walked straight back into the house. Soon, Tong Yuan's yelling and cursing like an old child came from the house, and the two men acted like doormats. A submissive but unwavering voice of persuasion.
Such sounds have been heard frequently these days, and everyone has become accustomed to them.
"It seems that the grasslands in the north may be more troublesome than we expected."
I don¡¯t know when, from another room, a civil servant wearing a white crane cloak walked out with a devilish smile on his face. When people first saw him, they would define him as A "bad guy".
"But I didn't hear the slightest hint of trouble from your mouth."
"I'm afraid it's just each other. I don't believe that Jia Wenhe, the dignified first counselor of Bingzhou, can't feel the weird feeling that is almost overflowing. And I believe Lord Wenhe should also have noticed the coordination between the two waves of enemy troops. It¡¯s unfamiliar.¡±
"What you said is more of an intuition, and the rest is just based on things dug out from the mouths of a few prisoners. It cannot be said that these are useless at all, but the matter is so important at this time that even the lord will be cautious. Be careful and don¡¯t make any mistakes.¡±
"Then those who were sent to the grasslandWhat do you do in the afterlife? Fa Zheng also hopes that you can give me some advice. "
"You know it and I know it, tacitly. So I won't mention the few prisoners who escaped 'accidentally', what do you think?"
"My lord treats Fa Zheng as a countryman, and Fa Zheng will be shattered to pieces in return for this kindness. There is nothing to fear from a mere stigma."
"Perhaps you are more suitable than Guo Fengxiao to take over some of the tasks I have."
The sound disappeared with the wind.
But just when Fazheng thought Jia Xu had left, Jia Xu's voice suddenly sounded in his ears again, and this time the voice was clearer and closer to his ears.
"However, you are still unable to meet the requirements of the Lord, so keep working hard."
Walking out of the shadows, Jia Xu¡¯s face showed a trace of secret joy? !
"Chicken legs, shrimp balls, fried pork chops, pan-fried steak, braised eggs, tempura, supreme cod, Australian dragon's blood, swan meat, foie gras, caviar Since we don't need it anymore, we should be able to share it tonight. Less.
"It's just that, is it an illusion? I always feel like I will be struck by five thunders when I pronounce a certain word. Is it an illusion"
?????????????????????? ! !
Pan Sen: If anyone feels that some of the dialogue above seems familiar, yes, it is definitely not an illusion~
