Chapter 148

What kind of person is Jia Xu? He keeps a low profile and maintains a moderate attitude.He was most afraid that something of honor and favor would fall on him, so he immediately got up and knelt down: "How dare you do this, I hope the lord will take it back."

I knew his temper, but I just didn't want to show off, so I said: "Second son, I will still rely on my husband in the future, please don't refuse, sir, Yuan Xi thanked you."

Jia Xu doesn't like to show off, but he is not stubborn. When I say this, and everyone agrees, he is too embarrassed to refuse, because it would be too much, and it would embarrass everyone.

Jia Xu looked fearful and fearful: "My lord is so loving and condescending, Jia Xu will not hesitate in the future." Mr. Wen He is an excellent actor, and he knows when to be sensational and when to be sad.

I hastily put down my wine glass, stood up, went to the front to help him up, grabbed his hand, and said earnestly: "Mr. is serious, this is the blessing of the dog. Please give me your name."

Jia Xu pondered for a while, then bowed and said, "I've already thought about it." Everyone admired his quick thinking.Zhang Xiu said: "Sir, don't be tricky, tell me quickly."

Jia Xu said: "The lord is smart and wise, with extraordinary martial arts skills. The eldest son can use the word Rui. Since he became a general, he has improved the internal affairs and revitalized Jizhou, and the people are happy. He is unparalleled in the world. This time, the son may as well be called the word 'Zheng'.

Cao Rui, Yuan Rui.My mother, is it God's will?Zhen Mi's son is called Yuan Rui. Does this kid really have the emperor's order?Yuan Zheng, Ying Zheng, yes, this one is also very good.

Jia Xu chose the name, but he won't say it later, but Cui Yan gave it the surname, Yuan Rui, Zhen Misheng's eldest son, named Renhe.Take the meaning of harmony between politics and people.Cai Yansheng's second son, Yuan Zheng, was named Renxiao.

When Tian Feng returned to Qinghe to take up his post, he made a memorial, which meant that the public security in Jizhou and Bingzhou of Qingzhou was very poor at present, and there were many fugitives.I hope that some yamen officials can be added.In addition, the power of the captain of the city gate is too small, and some wealthy families openly break the law, and they don't take such things as the captain seriously.The school lieutenant is required to act in a "festive manner".

I thought to myself, holding festivals is the emperor's business, and I can't make the decision.At most, I'll give Chengmen Xiaowei a Shangfang sword or something.As for the fact that there are too few errand officials, some criminals go unpunished. I think it is useless to increase manpower, and it is useless to give them too much money. It is a waste of taxpayers' money.I think a police dog and a military dog ​​should be bred.Just watch, this idea will definitely surprise Cao Cao in the future.

I got up in the morning and went to the back garden to see the special forces training.

The weather was so cold, the ground was frozen harder than a rock, and a white mark was poked out with a gun, and it made a clanging sound.In such weather, the training of ordinary soldiers has long been reduced, and it is a little more leisurely than other times.

Wearing a padded robe, I walked in through the arch of hanging flowers with my head down, facing the north wind blowing straight into my mouth, followed by more than a dozen soldiers.

Zhang He is leading his men to practice marksmanship in the Martial Arts Field.I was surprised to find that these guys were standing shirtless in the howling north wind.Each holds a spear in his hand and is about to practice stabbing.The soldiers, in groups of two, jumped back and forth on the martial arts arena, culling and killing.The lead-like dark clouds galloped past overhead, and the piercing cold wind rolled up icy dust and hit these warriors who seemed to be made of steel, and were immediately crushed by the enthusiasm and heat radiating from their bodies.

Zhang He also fought with others shirtless.The soldiers were sweating.The way they train, I am a little shocked that these beasts are actually playing for real.

It might have been Zhang He's idea. The upper bodies of all the shirtless soldiers who showed their muscles were covered with more than twenty scales that had been removed from the armor.I don't know how it got on me.The gun was a real iron gun, the tip of the gun was sharp and polished, and it shouldn't be a problem to stab a person to death.All the soldiers gritted their teeth, their eyes were red, they roared, and they used their guns to greet each other's bodies desperately.From time to time, someone was stabbed and let out a low cry.However, after yelling, he immediately came back to kill, and it was all right.

The problem lies in the armor scales on their upper bodies. These scales are all attached to the eighteen vital parts of the upper body of the human body, also called death points.I think it is taught to these would-be killers in Hua Tuo's medical classics, whether it is a sword or a gun.As long as the [-] points are pierced five inches, the person will not even be able to hum, and he will surely die.

Zhang Xi asked them to protect these eighteen parts with scales. The intention was obvious, that is to use a real iron spear to stab the flesh and blood.If it fails to hit the scales, it will be broken, and it will definitely puncture a certain part of the body.

This kind of cruel and bloody training method can make people highly concentrated. If you don't concentrate, you can't do it, because the life of a comrade-in-arms is in your hands. If you don't pay attention, your life will be gone.Soldiers who have been stabbing at these eighteen vital points for a long time will add some strength to their wrists when they actually go to the battlefield. For sure, one shot kills them, and they are the most efficient killers.

Seeing me coming, Zhang He immediately ran over to salute.

I smiled and said: "Junyi, these guys are pretty safe these days." Zhang He said: "It's okay, Wen, Wu, stealing, deception, and fortune-telling are all good, but the river is frozen , Swimming training can't be carried out."

"Ice, that's easy to handle, just ask someone to break the ice open." I said relaxedly.I thought to myself, listening to this means that I have practiced more liberal arts and neglected physical training, which is not acceptable.

Zhang Xi thought to himself, what the lord said is too easy, the soldier is so hard and thick that he can run a horse and a sports car is three points thicker than the city wall of Jizhou, and he can't take a bath even if he breaks it and it's cold.
Zhang He frowned and said, "My lord, when you go into the water at this time, even the gods will freeze to death." I said, "It's okay, it's healthier to wash, Junyi, believe it or not, not only will they not be frozen to death, but they will also be healthier." Well, there is nothing wrong with it, my teeth are good, my appetite is good, my body looks good, and it smells delicious!!"

Zhang He was dumbfounded, what does this have to do with appetite!
Zhang Yun said hesitantly: "My lord, I think we should show compassion to the soldiers and let them swim in the river for nine days. Isn't it more ruthless than killing people?"

I could tell that Zhang He was not very satisfied with me.I smiled and said, "Junyi, take the soldiers to the river and dig a [-]-foot ice hole first, and I'll go there in an hour."

Zhang He smiled wryly and said, "Fifty feet, seventy or eighty people haven't dug for several days."

I said: "Go to Zhou Cang and send a thousand gate soldiers to him."

Zhang He was helpless, who made you a general, just go.Greeted the special forces, put on clothes, and went to dig ice holes outside the city.

More than 1000 people stood on the crystal clear, slippery and hard ice surface of the Zhanghe River. They swung a hammer weighing dozens of kilograms and wedged steel drills as thick as their arms into the ice layer, making ice holes one by one, and then connecting them into One piece, pop out a piece of ice and throw it to the shore.Some ice cubes were thicker than a calf, exceeding the gate of the city.Just because there are so many people standing on it and tossing desperately, and the ice layer connected for hundreds of miles shows no sign of collapsing, you can know how hard it is frozen.

I took off my padded robe, rode on a horse and rushed to the river. The cold wind pierced the pores of my body like thousands of steel needles, almost freezing my beating heart.I gritted my teeth fiercely, if the soldiers can bear it, I can bear it.When you get to the river, get off your horse.Seeing that the soldiers had dug the ice holes, all of them were blushing, with red hands, a layer of finely crushed ice on their eyebrows and temples, and they were looking at me with inexplicable eyes.

Winter swimming, winter swimming, I have seen others swim in my previous life, but I have never tried it myself.It is said that it is beneficial to the body and mind, but it is not clear exactly how.Anyway, I can't die, I gritted my teeth, my muscles tensed, and I pulled off my clothes.Zhang Yun rushed up to greet him: "My lord, what are you?"

I said: "Let your special forces go down with me." As I spoke, I made a water wave motion, and plunged headfirst into the river water where a thin layer of ice immediately floated up after being dug open.

Instead of ordering the soldiers to swim in the winter, Zhang Yun shouted, "Quick, save the Lord. Quick." With more than a dozen bangs, a large group of unarmored special forces jumped into the water to rescue me.

When I first went down, my whole body was stiff and I almost sank into the water.But after a while, I felt that my whole body began to heat up, which was very comfortable.The special forces came to rescue me, and I swam forward, and they were chasing me behind.

These special soldiers gritted their steel teeth with apprehension and fear before jumping off, and approached me with the mortal heart of dying for the savior, only to find that after being frozen and stiff, the inexplicable moisture in the whole body was boundless and hot, and there was a kind of blood. It feels very comfortable to spray.Seeing that I was fine, I stopped chasing, but called my comrades on the shore to go into the water.

Zhang Xi jumped down a long time ago, he rushed to the front, and shouted at me in surprise: "This is really strange, why is my whole body getting hot?" I thought to myself, the lord is really a god, this is amazing.

I'm ashamed to say that this moment of bravery prevented me from getting out of bed for three or four days, and the high fever persisted and I almost turned up.Fortunately, there are a few gentle and considerate ladies who are waiting for him, so he gets better.

That night, when he was having a fever, Wang Xiu came over and said, "My lord, the one hundred pigeons you asked me to train are almost ready. My lord is really smart, those pigeons have a natural instinct to homing. Whether it is blocking thousands of mountains and rivers or high mountains, they have to return to their familiar nests. I have personally fed them according to the lord's instructions. At the beginning, let them get familiar with the environment around the nest, and then let them fly out slowly. Five-color flags are used to direct them to return home. At first, it was only a mile or two, and then five or six miles, ten miles. After a few months, these homing pigeons can fly hundreds of miles without getting lost. I have tried it. No matter how far away it is, you can fly back if you let it out.”

"That's really great." I was stupefied with burning eyes, staring at the stars, and said weakly: "I'm getting a hundred wolf dogs. Come on. Master Wang will handle this matter himself."

Wang Xiu said in surprise: "One hundred wolfhounds, why is this? Xiu is most afraid of dogs. It is okay for me to train pigeons, but it is absolutely impossible to train dogs." Wang Xiu was angry. I want to play with things and lose my mind. After playing with pigeons, I want to play with big wolf dogs. If Cao Bing comes, can wolf dogs and pigeons go to kill the enemy?Really.

Zhen Mi came in and changed a wet towel on my head, and said displeasedly: "My husband is so unloving, he is also a father. All day long, nothing but pigeons are wolf dogs, or he will throw himself into the river for no reason. Why? Is it a bad wife, or what?"

"I didn't commit suicide by throwing myself into the river. I was swimming in winter. Ma'am, you don't understand."

Wang Xiu sighed, "My lord must not commit suicide in the future. If General Zhang He hadn't risked his life to save him today, Jizhou would have lost its master."

I said angrily, "Zhang He told you that I threw myself into the river." Wang Xiu said firmly, "Who else would it be?" I almost kicked my legs in anger, and cursed, "Damn it, he's talking nonsense. "Wang Xiu bowed and said: "My lord is the overlord of one side, and you must not be willful about trivial matters in the future. Wang Xiu will retire first. As for the matter of the wolf dog, my lord, please rest assured. Xiu will definitely handle it well and try my best to share my worries. Rest at ease, my lord." , Retire, resign."

Zhen Mi sighed, lowered her head and gently pressed her forehead against mine, and said softly: "You mess around every day, if there is something wrong, my wife will go with you. I'm afraid you will feel comfortable in that way. "Tears slid down her clean cheeks, dripped on my face, and slid to the pillow.

Enduring the soreness all over my body, I stretched out my hand to stroke her fragrant black hair, and said apologetically, "I'm very sorry, ma'am, Yuan Xi won't be here in the future." It's all caused by Zhang Yun's dog, isn't this confusing black and white? .

Although the fever subsided after three days, my body was still weak. When I walked, my feet felt like I was stepping on thick cotton wool, and I felt like I was riding a cloud when I was drunk. My stomach was always empty and I always wanted to vomit.Cai Yan and Zhen Mi helped me to sit on the couch for a while, and then Zhang He came in.

When I saw this man, I couldn't help but feel angry from my heart, and I thought of giving him a violent beating.Zhang He said with a sly smile: "My lord, my lord, I have something to report."

Cai Yan said angrily: "General Zhang, the general is like this, can't you come back to report in a few days?" Zhang Yun said submissively: "Yes, ma'am, this matter is of great importance, it is really - really cannot be delayed."

Cai Yan puffed her cheeks, pointed at me and said, "Lie down, do you hear me?" Her ears are deafened, can you not hear me?

Zhang He shook his head as he watched, the generals in Jizhou have the same problem, they are afraid of their wives.My lord is the same as me, brother Wen Chou is also like this, and Wang Xiu is the most frightened. This is really strange.

Zhen Mi smiled and said to Cai Yan: "Since General Zhang is here, let's avoid it for a while." Cai Yan gave Zhang He a sideways look, and Zhang He almost fainted in fright. Offending his wife would be worse than offending the lord directly Woolen cloth.Sooner or later, I don't know when, if I blow the pillow wind, I will be unlucky.He hastily turned around and bowed deeply: "Two ladies, go slowly."

Crack, Zhen Mi closed the door from the outside.I jumped up suddenly, grabbed Zhang He's neck with both hands and shouted: "Tell me, why tell others that I threw myself into the river and not that I strangled you to death."

Zhang He struggled and said: "My lord, my lord, don't blame me for this matter. You didn't say it. Should the special forces be kept secret? If I tell everything, everyone will know."

"It turns out that you are all for the special forces. This general wants to thank you." I let go of my hand and slapped him on the chest: "Do you think you are fair? Oh, I dug a hole in the river and jumped into it." Suicide, I eat too much. If you want to commit suicide, you can wipe your neck and hang yourself. Why do you have to throw yourself into the river? If the news spreads, won’t I become a lunatic?” I rolled my eyes.

Zhang He smiled bitterly and said: "No way, no way, it's all for the army, it's all for the army. It's a fake, so it's hard to justify it, my lord, are you right?"

"Then why did you tell others that it was you who rescued me, and it was also for the army?"

Zhang Yun said in a daze: "My lord, don't get me wrong, this matter is not for the troops, but for myself." I misunderstood ass, I knew what you meant.You goddamn selfish at the expense of others.

My head was dazed, and I squatted on the bed like weightless: "By the way, Junyi, you said you have something to do with me, what's the matter?" Zhang Yun Haoxuan forgot the serious matter, coughed; "That's right, should we Send those out, the military situation is urgent, there is no need to delay."

"That's right." I came to my senses; "That's right, let them take Mr. Wang's pigeons, no one has one, and go to Luoyang and Xuchang, hurry up."

Zhang He smacked his lips: "My lord, I think it's better for everyone to reward some gold and silver. It's too stingy for a pigeon to eat, I'm afraid they will be dissatisfied—"

"Eat—" I said sharply, "That's not for food, Junyi, it's for conveying news."

Zhang Xi was stunned: "How can a pigeon deliver a message?" I told him in detail about the situation of the pigeon returning home, and then said: "Tie the message to be delivered to the pigeon's leg, and it will fly back to Jizhou. Then we can get news from Luoyang.”

Zhang He stammered: "It's wonderful—it's wonderful, I'm afraid I won't be able to fly back."

I waved my hand and said, "You can rest assured that you will be able to fly back. The most important thing is how well your female special forces are trained, whether they have mastered theft, deception, and dialect."

Zhang He said: "My lord, don't worry, these women are originally from the lower five sects, and they learned these crooked ways very quickly. I will ensure that no one will be able to hear their origins."

I said in a deep voice, "Have their relatives been settled?" Zhang He nodded, "They are all in the General's Mansion, serving them with delicious food and drink every day."

I sneered and said, "You told those women that if they are captured, they'd better die by themselves. If anyone tells about the special forces, let her whole family die."

Zhang He said: "Yes, they know how powerful it is. Don't worry, my lord. The poison you prepared has been distributed. No one dares to rebel."

In fact, what I'm most afraid of is that these people will be double-sided spies, that's a lot of money.

I nodded and said: "After the beginning of spring, release those thieves and warlocks. Jingzhou, Xichuan, Guanzhong, Jiangdong, Hanzhong, and Liaodong are all sent out. Tell Teacher Xun Yu about this and let him pay attention to receiving news from the south."
