Daqin: After marrying a vegetative princess, I went crazy with joy

Chapter 239 General Meng, You've Got a Look
If you want to build a good relationship with the people in the army, the fastest way is naturally to drink.

You can't drink two meals for one meal, and you can't drink three meals for two meals...

Wine jars were placed in front of the generals, smelling the aroma of wine in the air, and everyone kept looking at Liu Bai.

With a smile, Liu Bai immediately got up and slapped open the altar, filling it for Meng Tian.

"Come on, General Meng, try it!"

Meng Tian didn't hold back, just picked up the wine bowl and drank it down in one gulp.

Spicy liquid flowed into his stomach, wiped the wine stains from his mouth, and laughed.

"What the son-in-law said is not bad, good wine, really good wine!"

In his opinion, this wine is to his liking.

Compared with the previous ones, they are simply tasteful water!

In addition, being in the Northland, drinking spirits and warming the whole body makes it even more comfortable.

The generals below looked at Liu Bai eagerly.

Since the wine jar was slapped away, the aroma of the wine became stronger.

They smashed their mouths one by one, wanting to have a quick taste.

Seeing their hopeless looks, Meng Tian scolded with a smile.

"Look at you, it's a shame! Each person can only drink one bowl, do you hear me?"

Liu Bai nodded in agreement.

"Yes, this drink has a lot of stamina, don't get drunk!"

It was fine if he didn't say this, but it aroused the rebellious psychology of those men.

Just kidding, we can never pour a thousand cups.

With a small jar like yours, if there are dozens of jars, we won't be able to get drunk!

They slapped open the jars, grabbed the jars one by one, and poured them into their mouths.

Seeing this, Meng Tian didn't say a word, after all, that's how they usually drink.

This amount is used to warm up the body in the past.

What?You said you can't drink alcohol in the military?

That depends on when.

When it's cold, you don't let them drink, so you don't get sick from the cold when you go out?
And they are all measured, after all, everyone knows what they are facing...

While eating the dishes, Liu Bai chatted with Meng Tian about serious matters.

"General Meng, the main purpose of coming to Jiuyuan County this time is to vaccinate the common people, I don't know..."

Meng Tian laughed and said.

"If it's because of this matter, the son-in-law will be late!"

After saying that, he lifted the sleeve of his left arm, and suddenly saw an inch-long scar.

One can tell at a glance that this is obviously a wound after vaccination. Judging by the degree of healing, it has been at least ten days.

Looking at him in surprise, Liu Bai was a little puzzled.

"I don't know who inoculated this for the general?"

Meng Tian put down his wine bowl and cupped his fists toward the south.

"Of course it's Your Majesty! A month ago, Your Majesty ordered the imperial physician to order Mr. Xia to come to the army to teach the military doctors how to inoculate. All the soldiers in the army have been vaccinated! At the same time, they also vaccinated the people of Jiuyuan County..."

Liu Bai suddenly realized when he heard the words, it turned out to be the case!

Thinking about it carefully, I really have to ask too much.

As the army guarding the generals of the empire, they naturally had to be vaccinated in the first echelon.

Otherwise, in case of an accident, the smallpox epidemic spreads in the army...

At that time, it will not only be smallpox that threatens the people of Daqin, but also the butcher's knives of the barbarians...

"That's great, we can rush back to Xianyang as soon as possible..."

Meng Tian responded with a smile, but felt a little lonely in his heart, he hasn't been back for a long time!
Seeing his eyes, Liu Bai smiled.

"General Meng, you may be able to go home next year!"

Meng Tian nodded heavily, he naturally knew about the plan to attack the Huns.

Now with the addition of Liu Bai's horseshoe and other things, he is even more confident.

Just waiting for His Majesty's order, the Xiongnu will be completely driven out of the north, so that they can no longer wantonly harass the border of the Great Qin and the people of the Great Qin!

At that time, the world will really be peaceful...

The two continued to chat, gradually, Meng Tian felt something was wrong.

In the entire courtyard, it seemed that only the two of them had their voices.

The lieutenants sitting below seem to have disappeared...

Looking back, a dozen people were lying on the table, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

Meng Tian was startled, and hurried to check.

Only then did he realize that all his subordinates were drunk to death!

Shaking his dizzy head, he realized that Liu Bai's words were not just words!

He cursed secretly for nothing, kicked the nearest person, and then walked back.

"The son-in-law is laughing, they..."

Liu Bai waved his hand.

"I just said that this drink has a great aftertaste. If General Meng still has military affairs, drink less! I will leave it for you when you leave, and you will have plenty of time to drink in the future!"

Meng Tian nodded, secretly rejoicing in his heart.

Fortunately, I have been talking with my son-in-law and drank relatively little, otherwise I would really be ashamed today!

"After dinner, the princess and the son-in-law want to follow the general to see the Great Wall under construction?"

Ying Yinman didn't make a sound, she just sat beside Liu Bai when she was full, helping him refill his wine from time to time.

Seeing Liu Bai's eyes at this moment, he gave him a reproachful look.

"What is the son-in-law looking at me for? Go if you want!"

Liu Bai chuckled, put his hand under the table, and squeezed her little hand.

Looking at Meng Tian seriously, he nodded.

"That's fine, let's go out to digest food!"

Meng Tian got up straight away, ordered someone to carry the dozens of dead pigs away, and led the two of them outside.

After leaving Jiuyuan County, headed north all the way, and finally arrived at the foot of the Great Wall after an hour.

Meng Tian led people to build the Great Wall, not to build it out of thin air, but to connect the Great Walls of Yan, Zhao, and Qin during the Warring States Period.

The position they are in right now is between Yan and Zhao Great Wall.

The people who were expropriated are working hard.

After taking a closer look, Liu Bai asked.

"General Meng, I wonder if they are paid?"

Meng Tian nodded.

"Of course, there are two meals per person per day!"

"How long do they have to work every day?"

Meng Tian made up his mind and said.

"About eight to ten hours!"

I'll go, sixteen to twenty hours?
No wonder these people look sick and lifeless.

Who can withstand such high-intensity labor?

Can the people have no complaints in their hearts?

Even if you have the money to get it, you have to spend your life!
"General Meng, after working for such a long time, I don't know how the progress is?"

Meng Tian sighed.

"It was okay at the beginning, but now it's much slower..."

"Does the general know the reason?"

Meng Tian nodded naturally.

As the chief general of an army, in charge of the Great Wall, he naturally knew about it.

"They were too tired, and some even got sick, which delayed the construction period!"

Liu Bai looked at him suspiciously.

Since you said this, why did you let them do this?
"Since the general knows, why don't you let them rest?"

Shaking his head, Meng Tian said helplessly.

"Your Majesty is in a hurry. If you really let them stop working, the delay will be even worse. By then, the lives of these people..."

Liu Bai immediately understood his worry.

It seems that Meng Tian is not as he thought, blindly for his own merits, regardless of the life and death of the people.

In his heart, he also thinks about the people.

However, compared with death, the result of illness is much lighter.

Shaking his head, Liu Bai chuckled.

"General Meng, you've got a picture!"
