The daily life of Dali Siqing
Chapter 605 The Legend of Zhen Hu
"Suppress Hucheng?!"
"The villain has heard of it!"
"I've heard of it too!"
Facing the questioning of No. 1 in the quasi-military army, Marquis Wuxiang of the Great Zhou Dynasty, all the soldiers who were questioned actively answered the questions.
This reflects that the officers and soldiers of the Dazhou army are united and united as one, and the army of the separatist warlords in Qianyuan, Houjin and other places.
The army of the Great Zhou insisted on the leadership headed by Emperor Zhou. Its foundation was in the people, its blood was in the people, its strength was in the people, and it served the Emperor of the Great Zhou and the people of the Great Zhou wholeheartedly.
The Tiance Army is indeed a good army that obeys the command of the imperial court, can win battles, and has a good style of work!
……
Yang Qingyuan was also very pleased to see such enthusiastic speeches.
"Don't worry! Tell me one by one! Any news or legend about Zhenhu City is fine."
One of the soldiers said, "I heard that there are Hu people's corpses under the Hu city in this town, which are used to suppress the luck of the Hu people!"
"Yes! I've heard about this too. When I was a child, my grandma told me a story. The town of Hucheng cut off the dragon veins of the Hu clan. Otherwise, we wouldn't have a Taizu Emperor Gao in Shenzhou to save our people. "
"Yes, I heard that too!"
"..."
"I also heard that Zhenhu City is full of treasures robbed from Hu people."
The army soldiers talked a lot, but they were all rumors and rumors, and they didn't have much practical value.
"Then does any of you know where Zhenhu City is roughly located?!"
After Yang Qingyuan asked this question, the originally lively scene immediately cooled down.
Who would know such a thing!
If you knew, wouldn’t you have gone to find the treasure in Zhenhu City long ago? !
One of the old soldiers who hadn't spoken all this time said, "If anyone in our Tiance Army really knows, it must be Uncle Liu!"
"Yes! Uncle Liu!"
"He must know!"
The words of the old pawn resonated with everyone present.
Yang Qingyuan turned his head to look at Li Chengen and Yang Ning who were still making eye contact.
"Governor, who is Uncle Liu!?"
When Li Chengen heard Yang Qingyuan's question, he immediately stopped making eye contact with Yang Ning.
"Oh! Uncle Liu! He is a veteran of the Huotou Army, and the oldest person in our Tiance Army. He is already seventy-four! Because he has no family and he doesn't want to leave the Tiance Army, so he Let him stay in the Tiance Army and become the chef of the Huotou Army."
Firehead Army, no wonder!
There are three magical arms on the blue star in later generations, the political commissar of the Soviet Union, the medical soldiers of the United States, and the fire-headed army of China.
The Huotou army has always been Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which is almost a tradition in the past dynasties of China.
Han Huaiyin, the first great general of the former Han Dynasty, the unparalleled soldier of the country; the famous general of the early Tang Dynasty, the Duke of Pingyang, the general of Zuo Xiaowei, and Xue Li of the Tianshan Mountain with three arrows; one of the top ten generals of the country, participated in the Huanghuagang uprising, In the Civil War, Zhang Shengzhi, the oldest.
These people are all from the Firehead Army.
"Governor, then I'll go meet this Uncle Liu! I just happen to be hungry too!"
Yang Ning and Li Chengen were on military affairs, so naturally it was impossible to accompany Yang Qingyuan for a long time, so a school lieutenant led Yang Qingyuan to the barracks of the Tiance Army's Huotou Army.
It was almost noon at this time, and the Huotou army was already in full swing, cooking meals.
In the era of Taizu, the conditions of the frontier army were still very difficult. The soldiers could only eat as much as they wanted. As for what they could eat, it was not certain, and there was very little minced meat in the meals.
After Emperor Zhou came to the throne, he vigorously developed domestic productivity, which led to a rapid improvement in the economic and living standards of Da Zhou. In the history books, a "Yong'an rule" must have no chance of running away.The prosperity of Wenzhi is extremely rare in three generations.
Now there are lands recovered by Yang Qingyuan's two wars to make up for his martial arts. Most of the evaluation in the history books will be "Yong'an Prosperous Age".
In the same way, the prosperity of civil governance is also reflected in the military pay and rations. Now the frontier army can not only eat enough, but also eat meat!
Emperor Zhou also exempted the people on the border from taxes, and the local government collected military rations, fruits and vegetables instead of taxation, and encouraged the western and northern armies to seize cattle and sheep and graze them by themselves.
The combination of these policies led to a skyrocketing increase in the supply of food in the Tiance Army. The cattle and sheep captured by the Tiance Army also established several huge pastures for the border herdsmen to graze and reproduce.
On average, each centurion of the Tiance Army can allocate fifteen sheep each month.
Nutrition has been supplemented, and the combat effectiveness has naturally been improved.
When Yang Qingyuan came here, he was cooking mutton soup.
Under the guidance of the captain, Yang Qingyuan and Mrs. Mingzhu came to a stove where mutton soup was being cooked.
A hale and hearty old man in an apron is seasoning with a big spoon.
"Mr. Liu, this mutton soup is delicious!"
Uncle Liu who was making soup heard this, turned around, saw Yang Qingyuan, and looked him over carefully.
"Isn't this Marquis Yang?! Jinyang, you came back from Jinyang?!"
Yang Qingyuan: "..."
He fully knew that he had a great reputation, but he didn't expect his appearance to be so widely spread among the Tiance Army!
But Yang Qingyuan still asked very humbly, "Master Liu knows me?!"
"Master Yang, who doesn't know him!"
Yang Qingyuan would not miss a good opportunity to fill a cup.
Presumably it must be because of his two battles that his reputation spread far and wide, so he has such a high degree of recognition in the Tiance Army.
Just when Yang Qingyuan was expecting it, Uncle Liu continued to speak.
"You are General Xiao Cao's future husband-in-law! You know, when General Xiao Cao was a child, he only ate the food I cooked. I didn't expect it to be so many years. General Xiao Cao is getting married too!"
"..."
This popularity seems to be different from what I thought, and who spread the rumor?
If this is not married, it will be difficult to end!
On the side, Mrs. Mingzhu looked at Yang Qingyuan playfully.
"Ahem!" Yang Qingyuan coughed lightly, and decided to put this issue aside.
"Mr. Liu, I'm asking you for a place."
Uncle Liu put the lid on the pot, turned around, "Yang Hou, just ask, my old man has nothing but old age."
"..."
Yang Qingyuan was slightly silent when he heard the words, no, no, you are not only old, but also have good eyesight!
"Excuse me, old man, do you know that on the border between Dazhou and Qianyuan, there is a town called Hucheng?"
Hearing this name, Liu Bo Tim Chai paused, and then he let out a long sigh.
"Unexpectedly, after so many years, I heard this name again."
Uncle Liu poked the firewood in the earthen stove with tongs, then turned around and said, "My lord, if you ask other people, you may not know this place. I may be the only one who has been there in Tian Ce's army today!"
Hearing Uncle Liu's words, Yang Qingyuan couldn't help but Yang Qingyuan lit up.
Some people have been to Zhenhu City, so they can get twice the result with half the effort to find Zhenhu City.
"That was almost 40 years ago. It was still the fifth year of Hongwu. After Emperor Taizu Gao pacified the southern states, he began the Northern Expedition. At that time, King Zhongshan led the army to Dingqing and Qi in the north, while King Kaiping was ordered to send troops from Bingzhou. Attack Yuanmeng from the north. However, King Kaiping died of illness and was replaced by King Qiyang. At that time, I was a cavalry pawn in the Jingqi Battalion under King Qiyang."
Yang Qingyuan knew about this matter, and it was a good story that King Qiyang was ordered in the face of danger.
"At that time, Mulihua, the great general of our town in Dagan, fought decisively at the Onan River. King Qiyang has always been famous for his strong winds, and he is good at fighting fast! But when he continued to pursue the pursuit, he was ambushed. Although the prince He reined in the troops in time, but our unit was still scattered."
Mu Lihua, the great general of the town of Daqian, is the head of the generals under Yuan Taizu's command, and his ability to use troops cannot be underestimated.
"King Qiyang finally led his army to fight hard for three days before completely defeating Mulihua's army. Of course, I heard these things from the brothers in the army later."
Uncle Liu felt that the mutton soup in the cauldron was about the same, so he turned off the fire, took out three bowls, and filled a bowl of mutton soup for Yang Qingyuan, Mrs. Mingzhu, and himself, and sprinkled a handful of emerald greens on the surface of the soup. chopped green onion.
"Come on, have a taste of my old man's craftsmanship. I'll tell you about this slowly!"
Yang Qingyuan and Mrs. Mingzhu took the mutton soup. Although it was a big pot dish, it was very delicious.
Sheep don't expect it, but cattle don't know pepper.
The original mutton soup, but the smell of mutton is not very strong. Even Mrs. Mingzhu, a master cook, has to praise that this big pot of vegetables is cooked to a certain standard.
Uncle Liu took a sip of the mutton soup and continued, "At that time, we fought and chased with the stragglers of the Gan army, from the grassland to the Gobi, and finally lost our way. Our entire centurion, there are only 23 of us left."
"Just when we wanted to find the army, we encountered a sandstorm on the Gobi! At that scene, the yellow sand covered the sky and swept in. We couldn't see our fingers in the sandstorm, although everyone surrounded the horses It circled around, but was eventually buried by sandstorms."
"When the sandstorm passed, there were only nine of our brothers and eleven horses left around, and the rest of us disappeared."
I have to say that this Uncle Liu is still very talented in storytelling, and he speaks vividly.
"At that time, the water bags around us had already been drunk. If we couldn't find any more water sources, the brothers would all die on the Gobi Desert. We walked forward for more than ten miles. When I woke up, my brothers and I were already in the same room."
Yang Qingyuan was thoughtful, "Where is Zhenhu City!?"
"That's right, that's Zhenhu City! The people living in the town don't know about the Song Dynasty, let alone our Great Zhou Dynasty, but they are survivors of the former Qin Dynasty. After hearing that we were the army fighting against the Yuanmeng Dagan, they did it for us. We bandaged our wounds, prepared enough water for us, and sent us nine camels, and my brothers and I walked out of the Gobi.”
Yang Qingyuan knew that this should be the person left by the former Qin Emperor I to guard the town of Hucheng. Back then, Emperor Qin drove Donghu to the north and left 30 troops on the border near Jiuyuan.
The 30 army and the Baiyue Expeditionary Army are also known as the two trump cards of the Qin Army.
The leader of the Nine Plains Army is Meng Tian, who is also called the "Meng Family Army" because there are many descendants of the Meng family in the army.
The former Qin II Emperor, Huhai Jiaozhao killed the Meng brothers and son Fusu, and the tens of thousands of people in the Jiuyuan Army with the Meng children as the core are also missing. It is very likely that they went to this town of Hu city.
"Later, when the class teacher returned to the court, we reported the matter to the school captain and got the general's order. We took a thank you gift to thank him, but we couldn't find this town of Hucheng."
When recalling this past event, Uncle Liu was also full of emotions. What happened 40 years ago seems to have happened yesterday in a trance.
There were no road signs in the Gobi, and it was really impossible to tell the direction, so they couldn't find Zhenhu City again in the end.
"Then Uncle Liu, do you still remember where Zhenhu City is?!"
Uncle Liu frowned, "I'm sure I don't know the exact location, after all, we failed to find Zhenhu City the second time, but I vaguely remember that we were walking all the way to the northwest to avoid a team of Yuanmeng It took more than 20 days for the cavalry team to go out of the grassland and enter the Gobi. After entering the Gobi, there was no sign, so we could only know that we were heading north, but we didn’t know anything else.”
The Gobi is full of wind and sand, even those who are familiar with the path will get lost in it, let alone foreign soldiers like them.
"Then Uncle Liu, those old men who went to Zhenhu City with you back then are still alive?!"
Uncle Liu heaved a long sigh when he heard the words, "Nine of us went to town Hucheng back then, and in the third Northern Expedition the following year, Lao Wang, Lao Chen, Lao Li, Lao Zhao, and Lao Feng died at the hands of Yuanmeng people; The one who got along the best was Ah Hu, who was named a school lieutenant because he beheaded and shot the two thousand commanders of Yuan Meng. Unfortunately, after becoming an official, people changed, and the embezzlement of military pay was inspected by the inspectors in the army. The master censor of the court also caught him and sentenced him to death."
"The rest of me and Gangzi, Sanwang, Gangzi died of illness 20 years ago, and Gangzi died five years ago. Those who have really been to the town of Hucheng, I may be the only one left in the Tiance Army today! "
Uncle Liu is already seventy-four, and seventy is rare in life, which is already a rare longevity. His age should be about the same as him, but he doesn't live as long as he does.
Then Uncle Liu said some details, but due to the long time, many of them can't be remembered clearly.
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have seldom thought of it, but when you mentioned it, it seemed like it happened yesterday."
These words made Liu Bo recall the past with a lot of emotion.
But for Yang Qingyuan, although he didn't get the specific location of Zhenhu City, he still gained a lot.
From Liu Bo's words, we already know that this town of Hucheng is not far from the Gobi grassland.
Combined with the information obtained from Wangyue Yujue and Longwen Yuhuang, if you want to find the ruins of Hucheng in this town, you will not be looking for a needle in a haystack.
In particular, there are still people living in Zhenhu City. If people live, they need to communicate with the outside world, and that will definitely leave traces.
After listening to the story and drinking the mutton soup, Yang Qingyuan also got up, "Old man, thank you this time!"
As he spoke, Yang Qingyuan took out ten bank notes from his bosom, all of which were small bills of ten taels each.
"A little heart is not a respect!"
Seeing this, Uncle Liu's expression became serious, "Is this true, is my old Liu greedy for these money?! Besides, I have no children, what do I want these fools for?"
Yang Qingyuan smiled and said, "Didn't Xueyang grow up eating your meal? This should be the meal money I paid to Xueyang!"
After Yang Qingyuan finished speaking, he didn't say any more, just took Mrs. Mingzhu with him, and disappeared beside the earthen stove in a flash.
Left alone, Uncle Liu shook his head and smiled wryly.
"The villain has heard of it!"
"I've heard of it too!"
Facing the questioning of No. 1 in the quasi-military army, Marquis Wuxiang of the Great Zhou Dynasty, all the soldiers who were questioned actively answered the questions.
