Red Mansion Soldiers

Chapter 28 The War Is Over
"Suck, suck, tons, tons..."

A bowl of rice poured with two tablespoons of sauce was sucked into his stomach, he picked up a large bowl of rice wine and drank it, grabbed a Dongpo elbow and bit it hard, crystal clear fat flowed down the corner of his mouth out.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

God is sorry, I finally eat the food that I have been thinking about for more than four years.

Over the years, cattle and sheep have eaten a lot, but big-eared sheep have never eaten one!Not to mention the mush porridge that has been tortured for the past six months, and the beef jerky that exudes a stale smell.

He wiped his tears with his sleeve casually, ate the elbow in a few mouthfuls, then stared at the fat chicken on the table, grabbed the fat chicken and put it on his plate, tore off a pair of chicken legs and started working...

"Hehe, eat slowly, no one will grab it from you, and let the people below do it after eating, it will make my grandson hungry, it really suffers!"

Liu Yan looked at Jia Hun swallowing his meal with a distressed face, and couldn't help blaming himself. If he hadn't underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, Jia Hun's battle would have been much easier this time, and there would not even be this expedition.

But he was incompetent, and instead of destroying the enemy like Lu Guan, he fell into a tug-of-war with Chahan Danjin, causing the Heshuote people to mobilize, threatening Guanlong and Southwest at the same time, and being restrained by a large number of troops.

At the same time, it aroused the thoughts of the grassland tribes going south, and all the attention of the Northwest Frontier Army was on the Heshuote people, and they could not be distracted to resist the invaders of the grassland tribes. At that time, Daqi would be in danger.

Fortunately, Jia Hun, the eldest grandson of his elder brother, took the initiative to carry out the raid on Sunlight City with a detour of [-] miles, and it was successful. Otherwise, those tribes in the grassland who had been maimed by the emperor would surely bite the tired old man like a pack of wolves. Done.

Thanks to you!Liu Bing sighed.

Not only did Jia Hun succeed in other countries and Shuo Te, but also because Jia Hun captured Chahan Danjin alive and preserved Liu Bing's reputation for life.

Hearing Liu Tong's words of concern, he cried even louder, and other people in the hall also cried.

Hey, after all, they are all a group of dolls who are only seventeen or eighteen years old!Looking at the group of children, nephews and grandchildren of his old brother's family, Liu Bing sighed.

Liu Bing's family is actually a nobleman who was born in Taizong's dynasty. His father followed Taizong's three expeditions to the grassland and moved to Luoyang to live in Luoyang because of his military exploits.

Jia Daishan, Liu Tong's younger brother, was five years old, so Jia Daishan took good care of this younger brother, and they worked together in Hexi for nearly ten years.The two families can be regarded as good friends, Jia Hui often saw him when he was a child, and called him Master Liu.

After that coup, Liu Bing was sent to the Southwest as a military officer.Now that they meet again, Jia Hun has a feeling of being reunited with relatives.

"Whether you sit or not, whether you eat or not, babbling is so ugly!"

Ouch!
Liu Li was slapped and spat out a large piece of white meat that he had just bitten into his mouth.Grinning in pain.

That's right, Liu Li is the concubine's grandson of Liu Bing, he was demoted to the first rank, and he is now Yongyi Bo.

In recent years, Liu Bing's road to promotion has also been quite bumpy. As it is now, 1 people have been eaten up, and cavalry is still extremely scarce in the southwest. The hard work of more than three years has been wasted.

A group of brothers ate from the evening to the midday of the moon before eating to their heart's content.Back to the residence hooked shoulders.

. . . . . .

After capturing Chahan Danjin alive, it took Jia Hun and others more than half a month to regain the lost ground.

Then, when Liu Wei assembled his army to fight Chahan Danjin for another [-] rounds, and led his army to retake Feixianguan, he found the Daqi Black Tiger Army Flag stuck on the wall of the pass.I also saw my grandson looking down from the closed wall with his head poking his head.

Feixian Pass was raided by Liu Li in the morning, and Liu Bing arrived in the afternoon.

Liu Bing didn't come back to his senses until he saw Jia Hun in the small town behind the pass, and then he saw Chahan Danjin who was tightly bound, and fell into ecstasy.

Yo, it's not Chahan Danjin, I haven't seen you for a few days, what's the matter?
When Jia Hun said that even Lhazang Khan was captured alive, Liu Bing passed out happily, and woke up only after being pinched and artificially resuscitated.

Even though it has been several days since he returned to Jinguan City, Liu Tong would happily get himself drunk when he thought of this.

According to the Daqi law, in the newly occupied area, the nearest local yamen and the army must send grassroots officials to enter and organize basic administrative institutions, and wait for the imperial court to send official officials to enter. Of course, it’s okay to stay in the newly occupied area, and even give priority consider.

The grassroots officials in Sichuan were all empty, and even some people were conscripted and dispatched to the plateau. The local army also dispatched some to the plateau, preparing to completely wipe out the remnants of Heshuote. I believe that Chen Jingyuan and Shi Yuanxiu who stayed on the plateau will soon Waiting for someone to come to Jinguan City and meet everyone.

The army that followed Jia Hun to complete the expedition also ended the military service ahead of schedule according to the agreement, and all of them gained a lot.

Only Jia Hun would look at the list of casualties in the dead of night, secretly saddened.

340 people climbed to the plateau. Now, less than 930 people have returned to Handi, 4408 people died, and only more than 3000 bodies have been recovered, and there are more than 1000 bones including those that fell off the cliff and were bombed by gunpowder. Wucun and being trampled into meat and other reasons stayed on the plateau forever.

After a few days, when Chen Jingyuan and others arrived at Jinguan City, they would also set off to return to the northwest together.

. . . . . .

"My General Jia, I beg you, don't write any more scripts, you really don't have this talent, the libretto is quite good, but the plot is as bad as shit, I beg you, In the future, if you really want to write something, write Sanqu, you really don’t have the talent for writing plots!” After Sichuan Xuezheng finished speaking, he hurriedly fled from the lobby and went to give lessons to officials and students, leaving only Jia Hun to sit Doubting life in a chair.

The waiting time was too boring. Hearing that Mr. Tang Xian, the current Sichuan Xuezheng, is a well-known opera master, Jia Hun decided to bring his own works to Tang Xian for advice.

Hearing Jia Hun's intention of coming, Tang Xian was also very surprised. He thought Jia Hun was a tyrannical warrior, after all his achievements were too exaggerated.I didn't expect to write a script, and my interest greatly increased, so I decided to read it.

Then he regretted it.

The literary talent is good, but the writing is incomprehensible, the story is poor, the plot is boring, the rhythm is chaotic, and there is nothing remarkable in the whole film!

Tang Xian was worried that it was because Jia Hun's first writing was poor, so he read the next few books.

He hadn't slept for three days in disgust. If it wasn't for the support of his literary talent, he would have been somewhat worth seeing, otherwise he would have gone all out with Jia Hun.

The new literary genre developed by Daqi is Qu.

After experiencing Yu poems and Liang Ci, Daqi also developed a new literary genre-Qu.

In the early years of the Kingdom, Emperor Taizong, who was still a prince, compiled the prototype of Qiqu based on many deeds, following the songs and dances of the court, in order to publicize the destiny of Taizu and the bravery of the Qi army.

With the passage of time, the literati of the Qi Dynasty inherited the rhythm of Cipai and further developed Qupai. Taizong liked it very much and ordered to vigorously develop Qupai to promote Daqi's literary rule.

Today, two branches have been successfully organized, Zaju and Sanqu.

It is precisely because of Daqi's current atmosphere that writing operas is not something that only low-level literati will do, but it is a very elegant thing.

But it is obvious that Jia Hun has no talent for writing Zaju.

A good subject matter was written to waste——Tang Xian.

"Well, I'll feel at ease in the future...write Sanqu." Jia Hun shook his head, and threw the script in his hand into the brazier.

Fortunately, I specially recited Yuanqu before for the sake of pretense, and with the retrievable memory that comes standard with time travelers, I can still be a master of Sanqu in this life.

Sighing, he walked out of Sichuan Official School, wandered aimlessly on the road, and walked until he came to a magnificent gate.

Cheng Chengxiuhou's mansion.

According to the system of two kings and three Kes, Daqi canonized the Li family, a descendant of Yu, and the Chao family, a descendant of Liang, as Dukes.

The Ji family descended from the Zhou Dynasty, the Liu family descended from the Han Dynasty, and the Gongsun family descended from the Cheng Dynasty were marquises.

These two princes and three marquises are the guests of Chen Qi, and they are allowed to keep the ancestral temple of the previous dynasty, hereditary without replacement, and independent of the Qi dynasty's title system.

Among them, the descendants of Qin were slaughtered by Xiang Yu, and no descendants were found. After 400 years of troubled times, it was not appropriate to find anyone. Xuanhan, who had been united for more than ten years, exploded in an instant because of the struggle for succession.

Because of the act of massacring the clan of the previous dynasty, he was repeatedly plowed several times by dozens of remnants of the previous dynasty. It was true that the earthworms in the clan's family were cut into two vertically.

The Chengchengxiuhou mansion in front of him is the Gongsun royal family of Cheng Dynasty.

Wang Mang usurped the Han, Gongsun Shuli got married, went north to sneak attack and wiped out Kaihuo, took the opportunity to attack Chang'an, and became the trend of the old Qindong. win the world.Since then, this world has moved in a different direction from the original world.

After feeling a lot of emotion, Jia Hun went in for a visit, made friends with Gongsun Suiyi, the married young master who was of the same generation as him, and went back after having a meal.

For these "guests" who are completely powerless and surrounded by embroidered clothes, it is of course the most important thing to make friends with the upstarts in the court. It exists, so we should make friends with each other.

For Xungui, making friends with these "guests" is completely under the eyes of the emperor, and they will not be involved in political affairs. Basically, life is in a life where they can do everything except breaking the law and rebelling. There are a lot of good things, and the status is also very high. As long as there is no right to associate, he is naturally the best candidate for Xungui to make friends with.

. . . . . .

Another 18 days passed.

Chahan Danjin and Lazang Khan were first taken to Hexi to persuade the Heshuote Northern Army to surrender.

In addition, Chen Jingyuan, Shi Yuanxiu and his party finally came back.

More than 3000 people from the expeditionary force gathered and headed for Chang'an.

Passing through the mountains and ridges along the Ziwu Road, because there are a lot of things to bring, whether there is any combat mission, it took half a month to travel all the way to visit the mountains and rivers.

. . . . . .

Changan.

Since the founding of the city by Liu Bang, Emperor Taizu of the Han Dynasty, more than 100 emperors have chosen this place as their capital. After thousands of years of ups and downs, after being continuously destroyed and rebuilt, this weather-beaten city has become the westward seat of the Great Qi Dynasty.

In the early years of the Kingdom, among countless palaces, only the imperial palace of the previous dynasty—the Daming Palace remained.As the residence of Emperor Qi during his west tour.

Later, because the Daming Palace was too big, the base of the Qi Dynasty was not in Guanzhong but in Guandong. It would be too expensive to maintain such a large palace without visiting once in decades.

So he abandoned and demolished the Daming Palace, rebuilt the Han Weiyang Palace that was about to collapse into ruins, and re-planned and designed Chang'an with the Weiyang Palace as the center.

The army of more than 3000 people entered and stationed in Lantian Camp when they passed through Lantian County. After handing over to the officers of the camp, the group headed for Chang'an.

Qi Lu, when there is no combat mission or when the combat mission is over, officials with more than a thousand households do not need to live in the barracks, but they need to report their whereabouts.

After galloping for thirty miles on horseback, Jia Hun and his party finally entered Chang'an before the sunset curfew.

Originally, there was no curfew, but since Timur committed crimes, the entire Kansai has entered a state of war, and a curfew has been strictly enforced.Jia Hun and the others hurried back to their mansion.

Because Chang'an is still a high-level city, Rongning and Ningfu naturally bought properties here.

Two pocket dukes' mansions.

Jia Hun immediately felt the atmosphere of home when he entered Ningrong Street, which is also called Ningrong Street.

The middle door was wide open, and the family servants and soldiers who stayed in Chang'an were lined up neatly on both sides of the main door, attracting Chang'an people to gather around and watch the excitement.

The sharp-eyed boy standing on the street saw a group of people riding over on horseback.

"Uncle Hun is home, Uncle Hun is home!"

The servants loudly sent messages to the back, and following the shouts of one servant after another, the surrounding Chang'an people consciously got out of the way and waited for the general who won the victory and returned to the dynasty. , continuing the rules engraved in the bones for thousands of years.

Wei Qi, the housekeeper of the Rongguo Mansion in Chang'an, opened the middle door to greet the young master who had returned home after victory.

"Little Wei Qi, lead the servants of the Chang'an mansion to welcome the young master back home after victory!" After finishing speaking, Wei Qi took the lead and knelt down to salute Jia Hun, followed by the servants behind him.

"No courtesy, Daqi Wansheng!"

The boys in front of the door and the Chang'an people who surrounded them layer after layer shouted in unison: "Great Qi, Wan Sheng!" An old man with white beard and hair came out from the crowd, and was supported by his family tremblingly towards Jia Hun. come.

Jia Hun got off his horse quickly, went forward to hold the old man's arm.

Wei Qi introduced to Jia Hun: "Master, this is Mrs. Du, the oldest elder in our area. This year, he will be 110 and [-]!"

"Ah! The elder atones for his sins. Xiao Ke was supposed to pay a visit, but unexpectedly let the elder come in person. He deserves to be beaten!"

Such an old man is a national treasure. According to Qi Law, all old men over [-] years old must be supported by the Li or Street where their household registration is located.

If there are honorable officials in the neighborhood and those who have achieved more than Juren, they have to fully bear the cost of supporting them, and they have to visit them during New Years and holidays.

In the past, the Jia family had no master here, so the big housekeeper Wei Qi could only visit on his behalf. Now that the real master of the family is here, he must be going to visit the old man.

"Hehehe, what is there for the old man to visit? To be honest, even the old man feels ashamed to be supported by the family. There is nothing he can do for the mansion. The only thing he is good at is being able to live. If you live a few more years The house accumulates virtue.

The old man came here this time only to hear about a question from the major general, so let's treat it as the major general's visit, and there is no need to make another trip. "The old man spoke very slowly, and his thoughts were a little unclear, but he still spoke clearly.

"The elders just ask, let alone one question, even ten or hundreds!" Jia Hun stretched out his left hand and patted his chest.

"Major General, did we really knock down the plateau?" The old man asked tremblingly, holding Jia Hun's arm tightly, and looked at Jia Hun firmly.

"Yes, the plateau was brought down by us. In this expedition, 18 soldiers were killed, and Lazang Khan, king of Heshuote Khan, and Grand Master Chahan Danjin were captured alive! Great victory!" Jia Hun met the old man's eyes and said one word. He replied immediately.

"Okay, okay, Grandpa, Brother, have you seen that the plateau is ours!" As he spoke, the old man burst into tears.

The audience also changed from joy to depression.

A hundred years ago, He Shuote took advantage of the chaos in the world and plundered the Northwest. The old man's father was robbed and died on the plateau when he was delivering a letter. His elder brother was captured and sent to defend the city. Since then, the plateau has become a heart disease for the elderly.

Now, even their Khan was captured alive by the Qi army, and the old man felt happier than ever.

"Okay, okay, Gao Yuan is finally finished, even if this old man dies on the spot, he will rest in peace!"

"Don't dare to say that. Now that the war is about to end, the barbarians from all over the world are vying to bow their heads and proclaim their vassals. The days of peace are coming. The elderly should enjoy their happiness, haha!"

Jia Hun didn't dare to let him die here on the spot, such an old man thought that he swallowed his breath on the spot, and no matter what he said, he would suffer a little.

The atmosphere became active again, and after promising to set up a three-day feast, the momentum was as if the roof was about to be lifted.

Standing outside the street, Marquis Wu of Xuncheng stomped his feet anxiously. It has been a long time since the curfew and he still hasn't come home, but looking at the plaque of Rongguo Duke's Mansion in front of him, he can only be anxious.

The Jia family is in decline, but it depends on the situation. To them, they are still a huge monster and cannot be offended.

Jia Hun was also a little tired. Seeing this, Wei Qi covered Jia Hun and entered the gate of the mansion, staying behind to persuade everyone to disperse.

The Marquis Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and under Wei Qi's supervision, they promised to escort the people back.

Not only Ningrong Street, but also other houses. Chang'an City, which had been under curfew for several years, gradually regained its former vitality under the excitement of the young people who returned from victory.

After stepping over the brazier, the housemaids and maids who were temporarily found in the mansion took off their armor in a hurry, washed up and had some dinner, and the exhausted Jia Hun went to the east courtyard to sleep.

. . . . . .

Although they are both "guests", no one dares to make friends with this family in Chang'an City - the Chao family of Daliang.

The remnants of the previous dynasty.

As bold as Jia Hun, he didn't dare to get to know them, honestly he and his brothers met with the high-ranking officials in Chang'an City, and rushed into Pingkangfang in broad daylight, each family in the morning and night, and didn't go out for ten days.Especially in this 600-year-old store called Yanlailou, the quality of the girls is even more stunning in Chang'an.

Just when Jia Hun was supporting his waist and was about to go home and take a rest, Wei Qi came to report.

He Shuote, the commander of the Northern Army, surrendered Bao Lide in Pingzhangshi.

The whole of Chang'an ignored the curfew and celebrated for three days and three nights.

Jia Hun knew that the time to return to Yanjing was coming soon.

All the colleagues of the Anxi Dufu Mansion followed the Dadu Hu Lu Guan and entered Yumen, and Yue Liduo was also in the team.

Jia Hui declined all entertainment and concentrated on taking care of his body at home and preparing for the big battle in a few days.

　Send me five thousand words.

　　The things written in this chapter are more fragmented and general. The main reason is that these are not important things. I want to finish writing as soon as possible and go back to Rongguo Mansion. It seems that there are not many people who have written nearly [-] words in this red building and are still hanging around outside. one?

　　Tomorrow will be a new volume, titled "Yanjing, Luoyang"
