Returning to Longyou from Hanzhong, you must pass through Jicheng.

Jicheng is the seat of the Longyou Dudufu, and the capture of Liangzhou this time was mainly based on the Dudufu, with the Xiaowei Fu as a supplement.

Coupled with his relationship with General Zhao, Feng Yong must pay a visit when he comes back this time.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhao opened the middle door early and stood waiting in front of the door.

Feng Yongyuan saw this scene from a distance and quickly ran forward to salute:

"Old general, you are... you are so virtuous and capable, you really don't dare to take this position!"

Even though he is now the governor of Liangzhou, he is still not enough in front of Zhao Yun.

"In terms of qualifications, of course you can't afford it. But I'm not here to welcome you, but to welcome a great hero of the Han Dynasty."

Although Zhao Yun acted like an old man with a straight face in front of the public, he could not hide the joy in his tone and eyes.

I saw Zhao Yun helping Feng Yong up, "Last time you were carrying the emperor's orders and rushed through Jicheng, and you didn't even have time to say a few words."

"This time you have to stay in Jicheng for two more days. Tell me what you did after you led the troops out of Xiaoguan. The things written in the military newspaper are after all too simple and not satisfying enough."

"Since the old general has said this, how dare you disobey?"

Feng Yong's expression was natural, and he was not surprised at all that Zhao Yun would say this.

The emergence of the armored cavalry can be regarded as a brand new thing for all military commanders and generals outside the captain's mansion.

Brand-new things bring new ways of fighting, and any qualified general will subconsciously want to understand them clearly at the first opportunity.

When he was in Hanzhong, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty repeatedly asked Feng Yong about every detail of the Battle of Xiaoguan.

He almost didn't ask about Feng Junhou's flirting with General Guan on the stage.

"well!"

Zhao Yun nodded repeatedly, and then his eyes fell on the group of young men behind Feng Yong.

I saw that they were all carrying luggage uniformly, with water bags hanging on their waists, and cloth strips wrapped around their legs and shins. Although it was a bit strange, they looked neat.

With this kind of attire, you can tell at a glance that he is someone under Feng Yong.

In Longyou at the end of March, the weather was already very warm, but it was far from hot.

Everyone in this group of young men had red faces, and their foreheads and faces were stained with sweat. They seemed to be coming in a hurry.

They were all staring at him with curiosity, excitement, excitement, etc. Zhao Yun was not surprised by this, after all, he often received such looks from military officers.

What surprised him was why Feng Yong brought people to the Governor's Mansion on purpose?

"Old general, these are the students I brought from Nanxiang. They are considered the first batch of disciples taught by Master Xiang."

Feng Yong saw Zhao Yun looking at him with inquiring eyes and quickly explained:

"They have admired the old general for a long time, so I brought them here by the way so that they can experience the old general's majesty."

Anyway, Xiang Lang is not here, and he has also given lectures to these students. Feng Junhou is not afraid to borrow the name of Old Master Xiang.

"oh?"

As soon as he heard that he was Xiang Lang's disciple, Zhao Yun couldn't help but take a second look.

When he noticed Zhang Yuan and others, he even stopped for a moment, and then looked at Feng Yong with some surprise, "These young men... do you want to put them in the army?"

What a great reading seed!

In the past few years, people and materials traveling from Hanzhong to Pingxiang have to pass through Jicheng.

At the same time, there were often material deliveries between Jicheng and Pingxiang, so Zhao Yun naturally knew something about the students from Nanxiang Academy.

I dare not say anything else, but they are definitely more than qualified for the position of grain and grass officer in the army.

What's more, judging from Feng Yong's tone, this group may still be the most outstanding students in recent years.

It would be too wasteful to put it in the army and let them sort out food and grass.

"That's not entirely true. At present, about ten people have been confirmed to serve in the army."

"I see." Zhao Yun couldn't comment on this, "I'm afraid he's a disciple of Master Xiang, but I'm afraid he's your student, right?"

With that said, he turned his head again and said to the group of students, "I'm all buried up to my neck in loess, what's so good about me?"

"If you really want to look at it, you still have to look at your mountain chief. From now on, the big men will have to rely on people like Feng Jishi."

"Twenty thousand people defeated one hundred thousand Cao thieves. I have never achieved anything like this in my life."

Seeing Zhao Yun taking the initiative to speak to them, the students were all in a commotion.

However, when they heard that Zhao Yun actually said such words, they burst out laughing again, with proud expressions on their faces.

"Now that you have opened your mouth, how can I not give you this face? Anyway, the Governor's Mansion is big enough. I will set up a banquet in the mansion today to entertain the scholars."

Zhao Yun unexpectedly gave Feng Yong face.

This time, not to mention the students, even Feng Yong was a little flattered, "Old General, this...I'm afraid they can't bear it..."

"What can't you bear? A student of a famous general in the world and the governor of Liangzhou in the Han Dynasty. Isn't his status not enough?"

Zhao Yun waved his hand without any doubt, "That's it, let's go, go back to the house first!"

Sure enough, when Zhang Yuan and others heard what Zhao Yun said, their faces showed moved expressions.

"Oh, by the way, there are no good cooks in the governor's house. You have to provide the cook and pork yourself."

Zhao Yun had just taken two steps when he suddenly remembered something and gave special instructions.

Mr. Zhao didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed about doing such shameless behavior.

"Ah? Okay... then!"

Feng Yong almost turned the corner and said, "Zhang Yuan!"

"Here!" Zhang Yuan responded loudly subconsciously, then ran over and saluted: "What are the instructions from the mountain chief?"

"You go to the warehouse of Dongfeng Express and ask them to send two cooks and a few pigs and sheep, and then tell them that I want to dine at the Governor's Mansion."

"promise!"

Zhang Yuan simply turned around and ran away.

Before the Battle of Longyou, due to the increase in grain production and the castration and fattening technology spread from Nanxiang, the practice of raising pigs and dolphins in captivity had become popular in the Han Dynasty.

After taking down Longyou, the trend of captivity will become stronger.

After all, Feng Junhou began to promote the breeding of cattle and sheep in Longyou.

In the past, big men also raised pigs, but that was called herding.

That is to say, like herding sheep, you drive pigs to the wild to find food.

Such pigs have a long growth cycle and the taste of their meat. Their bodies are full of lean meat and very little fat.

For people in this era, fat meat is much more delicious than lean meat.

Especially for the wealthy families in the upper class of Han Dynasty, braised pork is a must-have dish at banquets. It is fat but not greasy, sweet and delicious.

Because this dish requires castrated and fattened pork, it also requires brown sugar.

It is simply not something that ordinary people can afford.

As Jicheng is the largest city in Longyou, Dongfeng Express will naturally build a transit warehouse here, and Xinghanhui will also send people to stay here.

Wherever there is a prosperous Han society, raising pigs is indispensable.

The Governor's Mansion is indeed as the old man said, occupying a huge area.

Upon entering the gate, there is a large and spacious vestibule, enough to accommodate hundreds of people.

Naturally, Zhao Yun did not have dinner with the students. Allowing them to visit the Governor's Mansion and treating them to a meal in his name was enough to make these students excited.

Zhao Yun stood in front of the window of the room, watching Zhang Yuan instructing the students to set up tables and chairs and arrange for them to sit in order.

Finally, I saw about a dozen students coming out of the martial arts hall, sitting upright even when eating, and no one made a sound. They suddenly said to Feng Yong: "That young gentleman can at least be the school captain."

"

Feng Yong chuckled: "Since the old man said so, I have to teach him a lesson when I regain Liangzhou."

"Huh?" Zhao Yun turned around, "Are you going to send him to Liangzhou with me?"

Feng Yong nodded, "It's not just him, but the dozen or so students with him."

"They are all the most outstanding among this group of disciples. You must have put a lot of effort into cultivating them over the years. Are you really willing to do this?"

Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows, "Aren't you afraid of any eventuality?"

"The battle formation is a dangerous place. Who can guarantee that nothing will happen?" Feng Yong said calmly, "Besides, no matter how dangerous it is, is it as dangerous as the battle at Xiaoguan?"

Not to mention the battle at Jieting, why don’t I go to the battle in person? I can go into battle, why can’t they?”

At this point, Feng Yong said with some emotion, "This time when I returned to Hanzhong, the prime minister mentioned the old general's body when he talked to me about Zhang Changshi's death due to illness."

"The Prime Minister mentioned more than once that during these years, in the Han army, there were more than 70 generals including Sang Yangqun, Ma Yu, Yan Zhi, Ding Li, Bai Shou, Liu He, Deng Tong, etc., as well as Qu Chang."

"As for the surprise generals, there are more than a thousand warriors, Wuqian, and others. These are all the elites from all over the world that the late emperor gathered for decades. Now, even the old generals have come to pay attention to their health."
