I’m The King Chapter 499: : Stone City after the war
Madam Lu cried blood, but Gao Yuan lowered his head, feeling mixed feelings in his heart.
"What's the matter, Gao Yuan, are you in a difficult situation? Yes, you have fought for such a long time, and your subordinates must have suffered serious losses. At this time, I also ask you to send someone to **** me all the way to Chao'er , It's really unreasonable, but Gao Yuan, I really can't stay here any longer." Madam Lu burst into tears.
"No, no, it's not because of this!" Gao Yuan shook his head in a panic, "Auntie, that's not the case, don't worry, if you are going to Brother Lu Chao, I will naturally send someone to **** you there. This, you are completely You can rest assured."
"Then I will thank you first." Mrs. Lu insisted.
"Auntie, it's a long way from here to Brother Lu Chao, and you're in a hurry to leave, and it's freezing cold at this time, if you really want to leave, you have to take good care of yourself , like you are now, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that if you hold on to that big brother, you will fall down. So please take care of your body during this time."
"Don't worry, I'll save this. Poor Uncle Lu hasn't seen your elder brother for almost five years. I will live well and take good care of your elder brother Lu Chao for your Aunt Lu." As she spoke, Mrs. Lu burst into tears again.
"Auntie, just now you said you need to take care of yourself and take care of yourself, why are you crying again!" Gao Yuan said anxiously.
"Don't cry, don't cry." Mrs. Lu nodded, wiping away her tears, "I still have you, and your elder brother. Your uncle saw that you are more promising than the other, so it was in Jiuquan The next will also be safe."
Gao Yuan stood up, "Auntie, take good care of yourself during this time. If you need anything, let Lu Bin and the housekeeper Lu come to me. If I'm not here, you can find the infantry or Cao Tianci. You and the housekeeper Lu also know them." Two."
The infantry and Cao Tianci took a step forward and bowed in salute.
Madam Lu nodded slightly.
Gao Yuan took a step back, "Auntie, I still have something to do, so I will leave first."
"Go and do your work, I'm here, don't worry."
"Auntie, take care!" After another salute to Mrs. Lu, Gao Yuan turned around and left Mrs. Lu's room as if fleeing in a hurry.
Seeing Gao Yuan's hasty footsteps, the infantryman and Cao Tianci looked at each other in surprise, and hurriedly followed.
Gao Yuan walked like flying, Lu Bin's old cold legs, where he could catch up, could only watch Gao Yuan disappear at the gate of Lu Mansion for a while, and soon heard the sound of hooves riding in a hurry.
When Cao Tianci and the infantry caught up with Gao Yuan, he saw him riding his horse standing at the corner of the street, looking at the wall in front of him, and what was blocked by that wall was exactly what he was looking at. Look at the big house in Xianglu Mansion.
"General, what's the matter with you?" the infantryman asked in a low voice.
Gao Yuan raised his hand suddenly, slapped himself twice, and slapped himself twice, which surprised the infantry and Cao Tianci.
"General, what's the matter with you?"
"General, what are you doing?"
Gao Yuan took a long breath, "I'm **** less and less like a person now, I'm just a bastard. Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu have always looked at me like a son. Now, I want to use them and count them, infantry, godsend, tell me, am I still a person?"
The infantry fell silent for a moment, "General, you are not doing it for yourself. As the old saying goes, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes. If you want the tens of thousands of people under your command to live well, live well An Sheng, there are some things that you have to do even if you violate your conscience. You may feel sorry for General Lu’s family, but you will feel sorry for the tens of thousands of people in western Liaoning.”
Sighed: "Tianci, Aunt Lu went to Tiannan County to find Lu Chao, you should do the preliminary work first, and I will go back in two days, you delay Auntie's schedule first, wait My news, but don't let auntie notice what's wrong."
Cao Tianci nodded, "I understand, General, I will accompany Mrs. Lu to set off after I hear from you."
"That's it. Let's meet up again when we arrive at Jishi City. The preparations to be done are almost ready there." Gao Yuan reined in his horse and walked forward slowly. The infantry wanted to keep up, but Gao Yuan turned around, "Stay away from me, I want to walk alone."
A few days later, Zheng Jun, the former magistrate of Fufeng County, arrived in Liaoxi City amidst the blizzard and snow. As for the matter, one Wen and one Wu formed a team, but the officials at the bottom, for the time being, each settled down to their own duties, and it was Zheng Jun and Ye Zhong's business to straighten out Liaoxi County. Gao Yuan, who was the governor of Liaoxi County, left Liaoxi City on the day Zheng Jun entered the city. The infantry and cavalry led by He Lanxiong also left immediately. The remaining troops in Liaoxi City followed Zheng Jun to Liaoxi City. One thousand troops. This is the capital that Gao Yuan gave Ye Zhong. Based on this thousand soldiers, he will reorganize the 20,000 county soldiers in the city, eliminate the bad and save the good, and strengthen training. Wei, these two generals who were born in the command of Gaoyuan's personal guards, came to Liaoxi City this time as the commanders of the two battalions of infantry. From then on, they will fight under Ye Zhong's command.
Ye Zhen marched into Hejian County from Jishi City. Tang Ming and Wang Yi, two young generals who had been in Hejian County for a long time, had lost their way. In Yingkou, the heart of Yan Shenghao, the governor of Hejian County, was a little bit colder than this bone-chilling winter.
Only the infantry that should be stationed in the Niulanshan camp to guard against Donghu's invasion, He Lanxiong's cavalry team did not reach Fufeng, but returned to Jishi City. The huge Niulanshan camp was only led by Meng Chong Three thousand infantry moved in, but Bai Yucheng's scout battalion, who had been in Jishi City, disappeared without a trace this winter. Except for a few people, no one knew where they went.
Among the wind and snow, Gao Yuan and Jiang Jiaquan walked side by side on the road covered by thick snow. Although they were still on the road, following the discussions between the two, the military orders were carried by messengers one by one, and the horses galloped in all directions.
Just returned from the Donghu battlefield, defeated Tan Feng and Zhou Yu's standing army, and forced them to sign the alliance under the city. The generals with different goals did not know that what their top leaders were planning at this time was a major plan that related to whether they could develop safely and steadily on their territory in the next few years.
Because of the raging wind and snow, galloping horses can travel from Fufeng to Jishi City in just a few days, but Gao Yuan and Jiang Jiaquan and his party walked for nearly ten days. Strong and able to withstand it, when they stepped into the gate of Jishi City, Gao Yuan shook off the snow all over his body, and he was still in good spirits, as if nothing happened, but Jiang Jiaquan, who is old, can't do it He was exhausted, but his eyes were full of excitement.
"General Gao, I can't stand it any longer, so I have to go back and sleep with him for a day and a night." Jiang Jiaquan said as he cupped his hands at Gao Yuan with a smile.
"Chang Shi has worked hard, Chang Shi can rest as much as possible, Wu Kai has now handed over the business to his two sons, and he is concentrating on being an official, but he is doing well. I see him in Jishi City Well managed!" Gao Yuan laughed.
"He is a man, if he concentrates on doing a certain thing, he has a ruthless spirit, but he does his best, and Mr. Wu is a good businessman, and he uses this businessman's wrist in his official position." , but it is always beneficial. Now the Jishicheng city guards are very convinced to him, and they are as good as they are." Jiang Jiaquan did not hesitate to praise Wu Kai.
It’s winter now, the traditional feline winter. The herdsmen have stockpiled enough fodder for their livestock, so they don’t need to graze. The fields are covered by heavy snow, and the farmers have nothing to do. Jishi City, which should have been calm, is now But it was bustling, because the construction of the city, which was accidentally interrupted because of Tan Feng Zhou Yu's attack, started again vigorously. In the city, houses and roads were being built at an extremely fast speed.
Thick smoke was rising from the chimneys of the various workshops that were first built. Even though the wind was strong, it was still unable to blow away the continuous rising smoke.
If you do odd jobs in the city, you can also get paid. If you work as a small worker in a workshop, you can also get paid. The worst thing is that you can have two meals a day. There is meat, and this winter, none of the men in Jishi City hid in their homes to brag and fart, drink and go to the kang, but worked hard. Who doesn't want to earn more money to live a life? What a fat year! Especially after this great war, those who survived, cherish the life in front of them even more.
Even the women are not idle. The milk accumulated at home needs to be made into cheese and dried milk. These nutritious things have now become the necessary military supplies for the Eastern Conquest. Women in the Central Plains who do not have this craft have a pair of skillful hands. They buy wool from herdsmen, set up a spinning wheel, spin and weave cloth , The first such workshop in the city was actually set up by the dignified wife of the general, Ye Jinger. Every day, Ye Jinger would bring her personal girl to the workshop to spin yarn with the recruited women.
If it is said that Ye Jinger, the former general's wife, was limited to the legendary love story between him and the general Gao Yuan for all the people of Jishi City, but after that night of **** battle, the one on the tower, The woman in white waving her thin arms and beating the war drum vigorously is now vivid in the hearts of the people of Jishi City. Many of the women who work with her now followed Ye Jinger to the city that night. Maybe they just threw a stone or just shouted a few times, but it is enough to make them feel very proud.
Gao Yuan, who just came back, naturally didn't know about Ye Jing'er's changes, so when she saw Ye Jing'er who had rushed back from the workshop after getting the news, and saw that her dress was covered with fine wool , can't help being a little silly.rs
