Royal Road

Chapter 148:

March has passed, the weather is getting hotter, and the summer will begin in a few days. Farming is getting busier, but Shangdang's territory is getting more and more stable.

Before going to spring, many people got out of their white bodies and entered the prefectural palace. Some people stayed in the government office, while others were delegated to the county seat to serve as assistant officials. But regardless of the official position, these people's official career has really given the Shangdang scholars hope. In the past two years of chaos, the subsequent Zhongzheng assessment may not be held as scheduled, but the official will still promote the talents and stabilize the party. This attitude is more effective than any words.

The few poor scholars who came from the library have made the newly established library usher in a leap in numbers. More and more scholars walked out of their homes and headed to the county town. Not only the ten counties of Shangdang, but also the neighboring Leping country, some people also came to defect. Taking advantage of this great opportunity, the prefecture's Xuxu reopened and began to recruit students and teach Confucian classics. Although there are not many famous teachers in the school today, it is still an extremely important thing for the Shangdang, which has been in chaos for several years.

With the official level of peace, the people below can also live their lives at ease. The construction of Wubao, which started before, has now been almost completed. Water conservancy facilities have begun to take shape. Even the official roads in various places have been renovated. In addition, the epidemic prevention medical officers and agricultural officers assigned by the prefectural government have reduced the incidence of epidemics, allowing the illiterate people to learn some scientific agricultural knowledge for the first time.

All these superimpositions constitute an astonishing centripetal force. Not to mention those people who believe in Buddhism, even those who do not believe in, also set up longevity tablets in their homes, hoping that this godlike mansion can stay for a long time. Go to the party, bless them to have a place to stay in this troubled world.

Of course, there are many people looking forward to the Lord's protection, but there are also some people who wish to never see this Buddha. Just like these before.

After half a year of hard labor, the six hundred Huns who surrendered before, now only four hundred remain. Since they were captured, they have not had a day to rest. They have been building walls and leveling roads every day. Without enough food and winter clothes, it is impossible to escape. Once someone has a strange heart, they will sit in groups and be slaughtered.

This kind of life is like cultivating fire and ghosts, consuming their hope day by day, taking their arrogance, and turning this group of Xiongnu cavalry who can gallop on the battlefield into a group of dead-eyed walking corpses.

And what frightened them most was the man who made the meteor fall into the camp and destroyed everything.

Therefore, when Liang Feng appeared in front of them again, these people trembled and feared, kneeling in the dust like a wild dog.

Looking at the group of Huns who were absent, Liang Feng calmly said, "You wait to slaughter my people and attack my city, and you should try your best to punish them, so that you can follow suit."

These words were like icy water, pouring on the heads of the soldiers. However, the person stood in front of them, high above them, with a dazzling golden light behind him, like a body of Buddha's light, making people unable to resist any thoughts. In their hearts, there is no regret, no despair. Why come to this Lucheng to offend this unoffendable person? Maybe only one death can forgive one's sins.

Seeing the trembling soldiers, Liang Feng's voice changed: "Or, I can spare your life. As long as you are loyal to me, let me drive and die for me. Just like these beside me. Jieren."

Behind Liang Feng, there were dozens of Capricorn soldiers standing, all of them burly in stature, with upright backs, like the vajra warriors standing beside the Buddha. And the one at the front, with a cold face, a pair of gray-blue eyes, with murderous intent in his eyes.

The Buddha can use Hu. He already has Hu soldiers under his seat. In the legend of the countryside, it is even the twelve generals of Medicine Master Buddha, Qi Qian Yasha. They escaped divine punishment, paid hard labor, and deeply felt the fear of not being able to survive and die. At this moment, the Buddha asked them if they would like to be loyal?

Of course they would!

"Master!" I don't know who was the first to blurt out. Immediately, all these hundreds of people shouted.

"Master is here! The slave and maid are willing to die!"

The loudness of their shouts and their words are also different, but everyone is hoarse, and only asks the person in front of them to give them a way of life. A way to return to the world and survive! This is the only way they can find now.

Seeing those Huns who were crying and kowtowing, Liang Feng let out a sigh of relief. It's done! This is the result he wants. In troubled times, it is not always safe to recruit and drop troops. Just like Cao Cao, even though he had won 300,000 Qingzhou soldiers, he would immediately be defeated whenever there was a turmoil. In the battle of Wancheng, the hero almost died. However, at this moment, he fully understood Cao Cao's thoughts. This risk has to be taken. Because no one under him is available!

These Huns, who were born in fine riding at any rate, were scared of their courage and flattened their arrogance. How could they just let it go? Similarly, taking in the Huns will also bring some benefits to the subsequent expansion. The Xiongnu in Binzhou have been attached to them for a long time. If there are no powerful people who founded the country and proclaimed the king, the rest will also be ordinary people. If you want to make the population belong to you as much as possible, rather than the enemy, you have to resort to some extraordinary strategies.

If fifty years later, Liang Feng would never dare to take such a risk. But now, the situation is not so bad. And Xianbei obeyed the imperial court. There are also Qiang and Di people who settled in the north. If Jie people can use it, can others not? As long as he maintains the proportion of the population, continuously assimilates, and possesses an absolutely powerful force, he still has confidence and can use all kinds of hustle. Just like the Xiongnu general Jin Riqian under Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, like the Turkic Ashina imperial family in the court of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, even Cao Cao, and his nominal great-grandfather Liang Xi, did not tame the five. Department?

Turning his head to look at Yi Yan, Liang Feng said, "Take these people down to change clothes and give food. From tomorrow, they will be a member of your account. These people are all incorporated into the cavalry, as soldiers who dare to die."

Yi Yan has also studied "Six Secret Teachings", and naturally knows the meaning of "dare to die". He knows better what the lord intends to train these Huns in this way. Gently bowed, he replied: "You must train a loyal soldier for your lord!"

The Xiongnu's fine riding is strong enough. What he wants to polish is the loyalty of these people and the courage they lost. And these, Yi Yan also has enough confidence.

"That's good." Liang Feng said, "If you catch thieves in the future, you can follow this method."

He doesn't have the extravagant capital. It just depends on whether these descendants can be gathered together again and become a strong army.

After dealing with the matter of surrendering soldiers, Liang Feng returned to the government office. The first thing I sent to the desk was a letter from Jinyang. This was sent by Wang Wen and was also news from Jinyang that had not been seen for a long time.

Liang Feng immediately took it apart and looked at it. It turned out that at the beginning of the month, the Xiongnu began to move around again. It may be that the horse had survived the cold winter and began to grow fat, which made Liu Yuan unable to bear it and kicked off the prelude to the war again. However, he had been prepared for a long time, Sima Teng immediately recalled the Xianbei people, and Tuoba Yiying sent thousands of Qingqi to slay the Xiongnu general and thwarted another offensive by the Han Kingdom of the Xiongnu.

This news naturally made Jinyang jubilant. Everyone ignited hope, as long as there are Xianbei reinforcements, what are these Huns?

In addition to the news, Wang Wen also mentioned one thing in the letter. He has a niece who is fourteen years old, well-versed, gentle and dignified, and a good match. If Liang Feng is pleased, Wang Wen can call the shots and grant her to Liang Feng as a continuation.

This is the olive branch extended by the Wang Clan in Taiyuan!

Liang Feng looked at the letter and frowned. After a long time, he ordered Duan Qin and Cui Ji to be recruited.

"Wang's married daughter, but it is a perfect opportunity, the lord should take it!" Hearing the news from Liang Feng, Cui Ji was shocked and immediately said.

This is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It should be noted that the top elites of the Jin Dynasty had marriage barriers, and they could only marry a very small number of elites. Therefore, these masters are all blended in blood and have a complicated relationship by marriage. Anyone who wants to step out of this circle has to rely on the last name to speak.

And Liang Feng's Liang family is just a middle-class gentry. Marrying a daughter of the Wang clan, or a marriageable woman, is simply something that cannot be met. Probably it was Wang Wen who loved Liang Feng so much that he was willing to marry his relatives. If he and Wang Wen become in-laws, Liang Feng's position in Shangdang and even Bingzhou will inevitably be more stable!

However, Duan Qin frowned slightly: "Is the lord unwilling to get married?"

He knows his father-in-law better than Cui Ji. Such matters would be discussed with them, precisely because the Lord was hesitant in his heart. It's just such a good thing with so many benefits, what is he worried about?

Liang Feng's lips couldn't help but bring out a bit of wry smile. Political marriage? Of course he would not like it.

No one knows so-called political marriage better than him. As a third-generation celebrity, his parents are the most typical combination of interests. Only financial power allows these two people to sit in one place. The rest of the time, they are just playing their own games and are not related to each other. Because of this weird family relationship, he grew up next to his grandfather and developed a rebellious and weird temperament.

He can constantly change his female partners, and he can have a simple bed-centered relationship with any beautiful woman who looks right and can have fun. However, marriage was never his consideration. Not to mention, this kind of standard political marriage.

Marry a fourteen-year-old loli in order to get on the thigh of Wang's family in Taiyuan? This kind of thing, just thinking about it, made him a little nauseous.

Seeing the lord's appearance, Duan Qin would not know what he was thinking. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Now it may not be the time to marry. If it attracts Dongying's suspicion, it will be trouble. It is better to wait for the lord's health to get better, and then make plans."

As soon as he became the prefect of the Shangdang party, he married the Wang Clan of Jinyang, which really made Sima Teng, the lord of the state, feel a little grudge. If this has an impact on the official career, it would not be worth the loss. It is better to wait for the upper party to master it before considering the issue of marriage.

This is also a way. Liang Feng pondered for a moment, and finally said, "That's fine. I will wait until I recover physically, and then make plans."

What I have been avoiding has become a predicament that I have to face sooner or later. Liang Feng sighed secretly in his heart.

The author has something to say:

Then it was said that the battle of Wancheng in the text was also a great shame to Boss Cao. After attacking Wancheng, Zhang Xiu surrendered. Boss Cao, the wife of the master, was worried about the widow of the master's uncle. As a result, Zhang Xiu just surrendered and took a backhand blow. When the Qingzhou soldiers bombed the camp, Cao Cao was almost killed. The eldest son Cao Ang, his nephew Cao Anmin, and the general Dianwei were all killed by Zhang Xiu. Because the story is too legendary, it has been changed into countless versions, and it has become a traditional repertoire→_→Liang Shao, the wife is not safe, let’s do a good job=w=
