Chapter 1181 The Way to Work
During Shao Xun's stay in Yinguan County, the first batch of troops escorting food and grass had arrived in Xinping City.
This is the seat of Sanggan County and the old nest of the Pu tribe. For eight years, the county magistrate has either been a child of the Pu Gu family or their in-laws, but in any case it has never been lost.
In short, tribal chiefs or tyrants have mastered local power and have completely strengthened the powerful, even more thoroughly than Jiangdong. There are at least many tyrants. Although tyrants have to discuss with local tyrants, Dai Guo has stopped pretending, and tyrants have taken action in person.
However, locals respectfully face the Pu family, but outsiders may not be, such as the soldiers of the Right Cavalry Guard of Daliang Prefecture who escorted 100,000 hu of grain and grass to Sanggan County.
"There is one" Tuoba Sigong, who was wearing a green robe, shook his finger and said, "That is my place of residence when I was young, and later I gave it to my brother-in-law."
The soldiers of the Right Knight Guard turned their heads and saw that it was a house made of adobe and mixed wood, covered with thatch.
Perhaps it was destroyed by the strong wind, the roof was renovated and reeds were replaced, and the color looked newer.
"I'll wait a moment and go home and take a look." Tuoba Sigong said with his horse heads.
Everyone clasped their fists and said, "Please give me your wish."
Tuoba Sigong is now promoted to the deputy commander of Longpu Mansion in the Zixiang Township. This is the eighth rank, which is one level higher than Sima, the other rank of the ninth rank.
Actually, he is still a sesame mung bean official, but his future is brighter.
The troops from the Daliang Dynasty may go on a war. If only one defense is mobilized, then another Sima will lead the troops.
If one or more defense is mobilized, then higher-level officials will generally be sent to lead the team, such as the commander, deputy commander, chief of the commander, and even the commander of the commander will lead the team personally.
Therefore, Tuoba Sigong has actually left Sima (the ninth rank), the other subordinate of the military mansion, the team leader (from ninth rank), and the team deputy (no grade) level three, and has risen to the middle rank of the military mansion.
Such middle-level officers are very common for leading 600 people to charge into battle, and this is very likely to continue to make contributions.
When he rode his horse to the dirt house, Tuoba Sigong felt some nervousness for no reason.
He swallowed, turned over and got off the horse, and threw the whip to a group that followed him.
He was wearing deer leather armor, with a bow and knife hanging on his waist, several short spears inserted diagonally on his back, and a shield in his left hand.
He made the short spear by himself, and the bow, knife and shield were picked up on the battlefield, and later it was sent as a spoil.
The deer leather armor was made by Tuoba Sigong using the deer leather bought from his comrades.
The little one is not qualified to be listed in the military list, and it is considered to be armed to the teeth on the grassland.
Tuoba Sigong walked forward two steps. As soon as he approached Chaibo, he saw a woman going out with a bow and a saddle.
"Several (the meaning of "dog" in Xianbei)!" The woman was stunned when she saw Tuoba Sigong and subconsciously spoke.
A familiar "some" sounded like a certain kind of restraint on Tuoba Sigong, and he immediately stepped forward quickly and said "Sister".
The woman hugged him directly, her eyes turned red, and she said, "Why did you come back? She spoke like a Jin person."
Tuoba Sigong was speechless.
He took over his parents and his young siblings, but only his married sister was still in Xinping.
The woman let go of him and was about to say something else, but saw a few people coming from afar. The leader was still holding a horse and shouted: "Mulan (the meaning of 'richness' in Xianbei), you have found a horse. Hurry up and set off to meet in Xinping City east."
"I know how to recruit soldiers!" Mulan was also a stingy person and cursed after hearing this, "It's not enough for my husband to be conquered by you. Is even going to fight?"
When Tuoba Sigong heard this, his brows frowned.
Although it is normal to recruit women to fight, Xianbei women can also ride horses and shoot archery, and archery skills are generally good, but they generally do not do this.
It would be amazing to have a thousand female soldiers in a unit of ten thousand people, and sometimes there was not even a single female soldier.
It is understandable that my brother-in-law was requisitioned, but it is too much for my sister to be requisitioned.
Tuoba Sigong turned around and looked at this person, not knowing each other, and thought that the small tribe they used to be annexed by the Pu tribe?
When the visitor saw Tuoba Sigong, he was immediately imposing.
He was not an unknown person. This man was wearing a military officer robe in Liang State. Although he was a green robe under the seventh rank, he was also an official in Liang State.
"You are—" the visitor hesitated.
Before Tuoba Sigong could speak, his team took two steps forward, pulled out half of the knife, and shouted angrily: "Get out."
The visitor was a little short of breath, but when he was scolded, he became angry and pulled out the knife on the spot.
Several people behind him also showed bows and knives.
The sound of horse hooves sounded, and dozens of horses rushed from afar. Everyone held a sharp horse and asked from afar: "General, have you met an enemy?"
After saying that, he glanced at the group of people who were leading the horse. Ma Yao pointed, with a cruel smile on his face.
So what if you kill the military officers of the court?
After so many years of fighting in the south and north, who have never killed anyone? Are you afraid of you, the smelly shepherds?
The "Recruitment Office" was obviously a little at a loss and wanted to take action directly, but was stopped by the leader.
This person can bend and stretch. Seeing a large group of elite cavalry coming to Tuoba Sigong, he knew that he would not be able to get it if he could force himself.
He suddenly changed his smile and said, "It turns out that I was wrong. Duo ("Shanren") has already applied for it, and Mulan can be at home."
After saying that, he winked at the people around him.
The followers understood and went directly outside the thatched house of Mulan's neighbor's house, grabbed a man who was watching the fun, stuffed the whip and reins into his hand, and said, "But Zhu Hun (the general meaning means that a person has a strong smell)'s home, I'll go to Xinping to gather today."
But Zhu Hun was stunned and said, "I have already applied for it."
No one paid attention to him, and directly put him on the horse, then took a rifle, a bow and a quiver from his room.
After counting the arrows in the quiver, he tied them to the saddle and said, "If you dare to run, you will burn your house."
"Why?" But Zhu Hun's horse's butt was slapped and he was already walking forward. He still turned his head and asked unwillingly.
"The Emperor of Daliang is here. The nobles of the Pu tribe decided to gather all those who can be beaten, respect the orders of the Emperor of Daliang, and conquer the shepherds who went astray." The conscription man said, "They are exhausted and urgently need the Emperor of Daliang to rescue him."
But Zhu Hun cursed, but the horse had already walked away and could not hear it seriously.
The recruiter looked at Tuoba Sigong's brothers again, turned around and left without even saying hello.
After they left, many people suddenly appeared in the village, all looking at Tuoba Sigong with awe.
"Some of you have become noble people."
"Some of this, my archery skills are no worse than you. Can I become an official?"
"Where is the 'Daliang Tribe'?"
Everyone talked and kept talking.
While speaking, I was very envious of Tuoba Sigong's current status. Those who are flexible in mind are already thinking about whether they can replicate Tuoba Sigong's success and become one of the nobles by fighting for the "Emperor of Daliang".
They are too poor and are willing to take their lives to fight.
After seeing the envious expressions of everyone, Tuoba Sigong felt a sense of pride in his heart, so that he began to look down at these neighbors who were either aware or unaware of it.
They can't even sell their lives for a good price, they're like a bunch of poor people.
Of course, he was even more grateful to Emperor Liang. Without his "adventure" and the military spirit that Liang Guo was talented, he would not have been able to obtain his current status.
What clan leader and what kind of nobles are not worthy of his worship, and they wag their tails like dogs in front of Emperor Liang.
Only by jumping out of this well and seeing a wider world outside can you know how big the world is and how to do it is the best.
Otherwise, I would be confused all my life and be driven by the nobles of the tribe at will. I would beat me here today and rob there tomorrow, and I would find the right way to work hard.
In addition, what happened today made him feel a little strange.
Generally speaking, when the Shanyu or tribal nobles ordered troops, there were three households with one rank, three households with two ranks, one household with one rank, and the most terrible "Dafa".
Big hit means that everyone who can go to the battle will be on the battlefield, and all males who are higher than the wheel will be recruited, and some healthy women may also be recruited.
If you lose in this situation, it means that the tribe is over. The life and death of the left-behind old, weak, sick and disabled depends entirely on whether the winner is kind.
It is obvious today that it is a big deal. All the Pu tribe who can fight was recruited. Tuoba Sigong felt that Pu Gu asked a little bit of a big deal. The emperor brought so many elite soldiers here, so how can you do it? Who can you do it? Let's not say it, it may be really a big deal for someone to watch.
"Sister, wait for me at home." Tuoba Sigong turned his head and looked at the robes wandering not far away. He took out two pieces of silk and four pieces of yellow fine cloth from his luggage, put them on a felt blanket in the yard, and said, "Military orders are here, I'll leave first, I'll come back to see you later. If you live here, you won't be happy."
Tuoba Sigong thought about it and said, "Wait for me to come back."
After saying that, he glanced at his sister again, turned over to the horse, and whistled away surrounded by the soldiers.
The convoy on the dirt road was endless, full of food, grass and military supplies, heading northward.
The brave knight rode his horse past and raised a large fog of smoke and dust.
The drivers dared not speak out, but finally they could only look at the Xianbei people next to the road, mocking their houses and doghouses, from June 15th to 20th. Floods of Xianbei people, Wuhuan people, Xiongnu and even Han people gathered from all over the place and headed for Pingcheng.
By the 23rd, the troops gathered near Pingcheng had exceeded 40,000.
Looking down from a high place, the tents are everywhere, and the sound is extremely terrifying.
Is this still "depression"? Is it just depression?
On the 25th, when Shao Xun's canopy appeared on the horizon in the south of Pingcheng, everyone knew that the Emperor Daliang was coming and all the puzzles were about to be revealed.
