Zuo Xingjian nodded again and again, he was a little uneasy in his heart: "Lord, will those people talk nonsense?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Even if someone talks nonsense, the emperor can't control so many things, he is his emperor in peace, and he doesn't know how many days the soldiers below haven't received their salaries."
Zuo Xingjian said: "Lord, I know what to do. ” Hu Xiaotian said: "There are seven cities around Yunze, and you don't know the situation of these cities."
Zuo Xingjian said: "Some are clear, some are not clear, but don't worry, give me three months, and I will definitely be able to find out the situation in these cities clearly." ” Hu Xiaotian found that Zuo Xingjian was really an eight-sided and exquisite character, and it really took a lot of effort to talk to this kind of person.
He smiled and said, "Please have tea" Zuo Xingjian heard that Hu Xiaotian finally used a word of invitation, so he completely relieved himself, he picked up the teacup, and this time his hands were much steady: "Lord, are you still going to send the rest of the food to the capital?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Of course I have to do what I promised, otherwise people in the world will not say that I am treacherous." ” Zuo Xingjian said: "Lord, I recently heard a news that Dayong is going to open the grain ban to us. ” Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Dakang is short of food, but Dayong has bumper harvests year after year, and the grain they can't eat will be moldy and rotten if left in the barn, so it is better to sell it to us at a high price, so as to make huge profits, and they will use this ill-gotten wealth to buy weapons and turn to deal with Dakang." ” Zuo Xingjian said: "The lord is far-sighted, and his admiration for you is like the water of the Yongjiang River. ” Hu Xiaotian said: "It won't be long before the world will be turbulent, Lord Zuo, I want to be full and warm."
Zuo Xingjian had the courage to interrupt Hu Xiaotian's words and said: "You have to follow the lord, and you will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire."
Hu Xiaotian laughed.
Zuo Xingjian also laughed with him.
With Zu Da leading his troops to surrender, Hu Xiaotian no longer had the need to cut off the Tongyuan Bridge, and the people and horses who were ambushed around Yunyang also withdrew to Wuxing County one after another, but what followed was unfavorable news, the loss of 100,000 stone military rations, the old emperor had to suffer a dumb loss.
Although he guessed that this matter was related to Hu Xiaotian, he had no evidence, and immediately proposed to let Hu Xiaotian personally escort 100,000 stone of grain to the capital, and appointed Su Yuchi to lead the army to take over Yunyang.
It can be said that these two things are aimed at Hu Xiaotian, and seeing that the New Year is coming, he got such bad news, and all the generals are in a bad mood because of these news.
Most people, like Li Yongfu, resolutely opposed Hu Xiaotian's personal delivery of 100,000 stone of grain to the capital, Li Yongfu said: "This is a trap at all, I think the motive of the emperor's decree is against the lord." ” Liang Yinghao said: "If the lord returns to the capital, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get out." ” Yu Tianxing looked at Hu Xiaotian.
It is Hu Xiaotian who makes the final decision on this matter, and it is difficult for others to sway his opinion.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "When did I say that I was going back, of course I understand the emperor's thoughts, he regrets letting me out now, and tries his best to recall me back, seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, this emperor is really not sympathetic to his subordinates at all." ” Everyone laughed.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I won't go back, Yongfu."
If you want to work hard for a trip, let's take the ship.
Descend the Yongjiang River, go south along the coastline, and reach Haizhou, where to land, let the emperor send someone to Haizhou to meet him, if he doesn't want this batch of grain, he will give up.
Anyway, we won't send him to the capital. ” Xiong Tian said domineeringly: "Yes, it's too cold to eat, how can this old thing have so much" This sentence made everyone laugh again.
Li Yongfu said: "I'm afraid that the emperor will seize this matter and condemn the lord." ” Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "I have my own way of dealing with it, my matter is not a big problem, but this Su Yuchi is a trouble." ” Li Yongfu said: "Su Yuchi is our famous general, and he uses soldiers like a god.
There are few defeats, the last time he attacked Xingzhou, if it wasn't for the poor supply of the imperial court, he would not have been defeated, and the defeat was also to preserve his strength to the maximum. ” Xiong Tian said domineeringly: "It doesn't matter what famous general he is, as long as he dares to go against us, I will smash him with a sledgehammer." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "Bear child, I haven't scolded you yet, I heard that you have a new black horse" Speaking of the black horse Xiong Tianba, he suddenly smiled: "Hehe, it is definitely a rare BMW horse, third uncle, wait for me to tame the horse another day, compare it with your mule, and see whose foot strength is faster." ” Hu Xiaotian really couldn't cry or laugh, raised his foot and kicked him on the buttocks: "You give me a long memory, don't just stare at other people's things when you are in battle, if it wasn't for Zhan Peng to help you that day, you would almost be killed by someone's cold arrow." ” Xiong Tianba smiled and said: "I have a treasure armor to defend myself, and I can't shoot me." ” Yu Tianxing said: "The emperor asked us to give Su Yuchi 100,000 stone of grain, whether to give this grain or not" Li Yongfu said: "The emperor uses this way to do favors, on the one hand, it seems that he is generous to Su Yuchi, but on the other hand, he wants to thin up our strength and weaken our grain reserves." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "Su Yuchi is under the banner of suppressing bandits, but he is actually here to contain us. ” Liang Yinghao said: "In this way, this 100,000 stone grain can't be given to him, and when he is full and drunk, he will come to deal with us again, won't we be wronged."
Xiong Tianba said yes again and again.
Hu Xiaotian said: "What do the military advisors think?"
Yu Tianxing said: "The emperor has no reason to deal with the lord now, Su Yuchi is in Yunyang, from the current point of view, it is not bad for the lord, although his intention is to contain the lord, but at the same time he can also help prevent the rebels in Xingzhou, the lord should not ignore Xichuan, Li Tianheng has always been eyeing Dakang, now Dayong is being restrained because of the black beard, it cannot be ruled out that Li Tianheng sent troops from the north of Xichuan to take the opportunity to invade, with Su Yuchi in charge, at least one more barrier. ” Hu Xiaotian nodded, since he got the news, he has always been thinking about this issue, Yu Tianxing's analysis coincides with his thoughts.
Yu Tianxing said again: "What's more, the lord has no plans to expand to the west and north recently, and the main energy is still on Yunze, I think even Su Yuchi will not openly oppose the lord even if he is unwilling to help, but in fact, his sitting in Yunyang is equivalent to cutting off the contact between Xingzhou and Yunze, even if Guo Guangbi wants to save Heishui Village, he will first face a battle with Su Yuchi, so it seems that Su Yuchi sitting in Yunyang is currently only beneficial to us and harmless." ” Xiong Tian said domineeringly: "Then you can't give them so much food for nothing" Hu Xiaotian reprimanded: "What do you know, stinky boy, listen to the analysis of the military advisor." ” Xiong Tianba honestly closed his mouth.
Yu Tianxing said with a smile: "Don't talk about it, it looks like it's the New Year, and it's time to prepare for the New Year in the past two days." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "Yes, let's have a good New Year." ” Li Yongfu said: "Is the lord celebrating the New Year in Wuxing County?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head, and he said to Liang Yinghao: "Yinghao, you go to Dongluocang to replace General Zhao and let him have a good New Year."
"Dayong has reached a preliminary agreement with him, the two sides will not invade each other within five years, Dongluocang lent Hu Xiaotian for five years, although it is only an expedient measure, but there should be no change in the short term, so Hu Xiaotian is relieved to let Zhao Wusheng come back to take charge.
Li Yongfu went to the capital to deliver grain, and Wuxing County must have a general who can shock the naval army.
Yu Tianxing also said: "The lord doesn't plan to spend the New Year in Wuxing County" He has already taken his father to Wuxing County, and he must stay here for the New Year.
Hu Xiaotian said: "You are celebrating the New Year, but I am going to have a serious illness." ” Everyone was stunned, and immediately understood the true meaning of Hu Xiaotian's words, if he didn't get sick, how could he refuse the old emperor's request, and the holy decree could be named to let Hu Xiaotian personally send grain to the capital.
After the meeting, Hu Xiaotian took Xiong Tianba to visit Xia Changming, although Xiong Tianba got the black horse, but since the black horse followed him, he was unwilling to eat forage, and fought with hunger strike, seeing that he was losing weight day by day, although Xiong Tianba also sought advice from Tang Tiehan's brother and sister, although the two brothers and sisters were masters of horse taming, but they were helpless against this black horse, because the black horse was not sick, but missed the dead owner.
When Xia Changming heard about Xiong Tianba's incident, he happily went with him, and when he came to the stable, he saw the black horse lying quietly on the ground.
Xiong Tianba was obviously distressed: "Two days ago, it was jumping and jumping, and anyone who dared to approach it would kick and bite, but now it's good, it's completely out of spirit, as if bent on death." ” Xia Changming nodded, walked into the stable alone, and came to the black horse's side.
Xiong Tianba reminded him out of concern: "Mr.
Xia, be careful, don't be hurt by it." ” Xia Changming waved his hand and motioned for him not to speak.
Hu Xiaotian glanced at Xiong Tianba, and the two retreated into the distance, but saw Xia Changming gently stroking the mane of the black horse, the black horse snorted, and Xia Changming approached its ears and didn't know what it was doing.
Xiong Tianba was full of curiosity and said: "What is he doing talking to the horse" He hadn't seen Xia Changming's magical skills, so he felt strange to see everything.
Hu Xiaotian smiled: "In short, Changming must have a way."
He is full of confidence in Xia Changming.
After a while, seeing Xia Changming walk out of the stable, Xiong Tianba cared about the black horse, and walked over quickly, but saw the black horse lying motionless in the stable, as if dead, he was shocked, and was about to go in to see what was going on, but was stopped by Xia Changming, Xia Changming said in a low voice: "It's just asleep, you don't have to worry, don't disturb it, let it sleep well." ” The two came to Hu Xiaotian's side, and Xiong Tianba couldn't wait to ask, "What's the matter?"
Xia Changming said: "Is the owner of this horse killed by you?"
