I am the carpenter king

Chapter 216 Shenyang Qianwei

() Seeing He Shixian shaking his head, Zhao Lediao said in a deep voice: "General, Zhao Lediao has been in Liaodong for many years and has a deep affection for this place. How could he leave so easily?"

He Shixian seemed to feel that Zhao Ratejiao had something to say, He Shixian frowned, and then said with a smile: "Since my brother is here, I must treat my brother well, so my brother will let people prepare food and drinks, let's chat while eating! "

After a short time, the food and wine were put on the table. It is more suitable to say that it is wine and meat rather than wine and food.One big leg of lamb per person, roasted yellow on the outside and tender on the inside, looks very tempting.The head of the whole leg of lamb is roasted, and the outside is not burnt. It can be seen that the chef's craftsmanship is very good.One pot of wine per person, this is the food and drink prepared by He Shixian for Zhao Ratejiao, but obviously such things are more suitable for the appetite of these two people.

The two sat on two tables, each with a machete and Fang Haiwan.Reaching out his hand to Zhao Ratejiao, He Shixian laughed and said, "Brother, please!"

"Brother, please!" Zhao Ratejiao also clasped his fists at He Shixian and said with a smile.

The two of them were not too polite, and after drinking a bowl of wine, they each started to eat.Swallowing the meat in his mouth, He Shixian said with a smile: "Okay, now I can say anything I have to say! I am also very curious about my brother's changes, so I can say anything now!"

After drinking the wine in the bowl, Zhao Lijiao sighed softly, and said with a little dejection: "Brother, I know that you look down on me, people like me, you think I'm a bear, you think I'm not worthy of fighting, and I'm not worthy of doing war. General!"

Seeing the sincerity of Zhao Lijiao's words, He Shixian nodded slowly, and said quite seriously: "Brother, in this land of Liaodong, although many people respected you at the beginning, there may not be anyone who thinks highly of you. .Even if you are a soldier at the bottom. There may not be a few people who look up to you. My brother once suspected that your identity as a Wu Jinshi is fake. Only when I saw you today did I realize that it is not fake. After so many years, you Why do you want to do this?"

"Brother, everyone has their own difficulties, and they are all stories that cannot be told. When I was young, I admired Huo Qubing. I heard that the Tartars disturbed the border. How I wish I could lead people into the grassland and desert one day. If I can do it For Huo Qubing's merits, he immediately found a Marquis. When I was young, I looked for people to learn martial arts, and after learning my skills, I felt that it was almost enough, so I went to Beijing to take the martial arts exam." Zhao Ledjiao's voice was very low, and there was a hint of faintness in his tone from time to time. ridicule.

Sighing softly, He Shixian said helplessly, "I think so too, but I can't do it anymore. I don't have that ability. After so many years of wasting time, there are many things that can't be helped!"

After drinking the wine in the bowl in one gulp, Professor Zhao's face turned a little red, and he laughed at himself. Zhao Rate taught rather helplessly: "I went to Beijing to take the martial arts exam. In the first year, even those in the examination room were not If you didn’t go in, let’s not talk about the exam! All the military exams in that year were the children of nobles, and people like us had no chance to take the exam. When I saw those literati’s exams for the number one scholar, I realized that the court didn’t take it seriously. Whether there is a fair environment for martial arts is not important."

Looking at Zhao Ratejiao's slumped expression.He Shixian also felt a little uncomfortable. They were called Qiu Ba, and their heads were pinned to their belts.What about those humanities?Every day, he enjoys fine clothes and good food, and even points fingers at them from time to time, all of them are arrogant.It is impossible to say that there is no idea in the heart.But He Shixian knew that neither he nor Zhao Lijiao had the ability to change all this!

After pondering for a while, Zhao Ratejiao sighed deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Three years later, I went to Beijing to take the martial arts exam again, and finally passed the exam. Guangzong Yaozu. Just when I was full of confidence, I received a notice that the exam was over and I got a Wu Jinshi. Since then, I have made up my mind that I must work hard and not let my son I have lived through such days. So no matter what kind of things I am doing, the only purpose is to gain power, but more than 20 years have passed, and I am just a small guerrilla general.”

Seeing Zhao Lengjiao's appearance, He Shixian also sighed deeply. If it wasn't for the death of a large number of Daming's chief soldiers in the Battle of Salhu, He Shixian would not know when he would be able to sit on the chief soldier.He can completely understand Zhao Ratejiao's heart, and he also understands what Zhao Ratejiao is thinking in his heart.

"As time goes by, I become more and more disheartened, thinking that's it! Sometimes I want to resign and go home. Such a court, such an emperor, is not worth my life for him. Especially looking at Those soldiers whose fields were invaded, and those who died of illness because they could not get their pay, I wish I could rebel against the court." Zhao Lijiao seemed to be drinking too much, and he was speechless when he spoke.

He Shixian on the side also nodded, and said helplessly: "Yes! Watching the people suffer is like the government forcing the people to rebel, but what can we do?"

"But since Mr. Yuan was transferred back to the capital, Marshal Sun came to Liaodong. He not only won the battle. The emperor also punished the corrupt officials. Before the money was sent to the army, I felt that I saw hope again." His face was full of excitement, and he laughed and said while drinking.

He Shixian nodded slowly, and said with a smile: "Yes! When I first saw Marshal Sun, I was impressed by his ability and character. During the Battle of Shenyang, I, He Shixian, escaped death and survived for It was Marshal Sun, and it was for the elders of Liaodong! But when I arrived in Beijing, I saw the emperor at the Meridian Gate, and the emperor patted me on the shoulder. I will never forget the blood and sweat!' I knew right then that Daming had finally produced a wise emperor."

Looking at the excited He Shixian, Zhao Lengjiao also smiled and said: "I hope one day, I can stand at the Meridian Gate and let the emperor say these words to me!"

"Let me tell you good news. If you want to be Huo Qubing, there is no problem. The emperor wants to build a cavalry force in Liaodong, and the number is tentatively set at 3. It's just under planning, and it hasn't been announced yet! As long as you have the ability, Commander-in-Chief Employing personnel is all about eclecticism, and it is definitely not a problem to get a general soldier to command [-] elite cavalry and gallop across the grasslands and deserts!" He Shixian laughed and drank the wine in his bowl, and said loudly.

"General, is what you said true?" Looking at He Shixian in disbelief, Zhao Lengjiao asked in surprise.

Nodding vigorously, He Shixian said in a deep voice, "Of course it's true, how could it be fake? This general never lied!" He Shixian stretched out his hand and patted his chest, and said loudly.

At this time, Professor Zhao rate's face was filled with ecstasy. When he was young, he studied art with a teacher, and he had learned it all the time.Among them, the most important thing to learn is immediate kung fu, a 38-jin iron gun, which Zhao led has been coaching for a lifetime.Originally, I thought that my abilities would be useless in this life, but I didn't expect to have such an opportunity.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Ratejiao felt that this was almost certainly not so easy to get. Once the news spread, the entire Liaodong General, Deputy Chief, and Generals would all be eyeing this place.Fortunately, I had already prepared for it. If this happened, then I would definitely have my own position.

Glancing at He Shixian, Zhao led the education and said in a deep voice: "General He, do you know where I come from?"

The hand holding the wine bowl paused slightly, and He Shixian said in a deep voice, "Where is my brother from?"

"General, I'm from Shenyang Qianwei!" Zhao Lijiao put down the wine bowl in his hand, straightened his expression, and said quite seriously.

"Shenyang Qianwei? It's occupied by Jiannu, what are you going to do there?" Putting it down and playing with a serious face, He Shixian looked at Zhao Liaojiao with burning eyes, and asked with a serious face.

Sighing softly, Zhao Lijiao said with a helpless face: "I used to have a very bad reputation. If I want to join the commander in chief, I must have a decent credit! Otherwise, others will definitely look down on me. , I won’t be able to pass the days in the future. This time I came to the general for this matter. Whether it’s to prove my ability or count as a vote, I hope to win Shenyang Qianwei!"

He Shixian didn't say a word after listening to Zhao Ratejiao's words. Shenyang Qianwei is a very important stronghold.Twenty miles ahead of Shenyang, it is a fortress that can house tens of thousands of troops.As long as Shenyang Qianwei is taken down, it can form a triangle with Shenyang City and Shenyang Zhongwei, relying on each other, and can better defend Jiannu.If you go forward, you can advance to Kaiyuan and Tieling, and you can also take a peek at Fushun.And with the Shenyang Qianwei, once the cavalry is formed, the Shenyang Zhongwei can enter Mongolia and attack the tribes allied with Mongolia and the slaves. First, they can plunder war horses and livestock, and they can also capture people to occupy pastures and build large-scale pastures.Second, to ensure the space for the cavalry to harass Kaiyuan and Tieling at any time, there is no need to worry about being surrounded by Jiannu.

Slowly recalling what Sun Chengzong said to himself, He Shixian's face was extremely serious. If Shenyang Qianwei can be regained, the benefits are self-evident!Glancing at Zhao Ratejiao, He Shixian said in a deep voice: "The matter is of great importance. If you don't report the matter to the commander-in-chief, if something goes wrong, you and I can't afford it!"

"General, I stayed in Shenyang Qianwei for a month. I found that there were only 2000 slaves in Shenyang Qianwei. Only 3000 people were stationed in the city, and the remaining [-] people camped outside the city and went out to hunt from time to time. I A prisoner has been captured. There is not much food and grass in Shenyang Qianwei City. They need to rely on hunting to fill their stomachs. However, the food and grass will be delivered soon. We must take advantage of this gap to recover Shenyang Qianwei in one fell swoop. General please I have five thousand elite soldiers, and I am willing to go and bring back Shenyang Qianwei!" Zhao Liaojiao spoke in a low voice, but his expression was quite excited. (To be continued..)
