Chapter 237
The monthly tickets for the New Year will double in the seven-day New Year. Brothers who have monthly tickets will come with one!
After one night.
The time for breaking up is still here.
Luo Cheng couldn't bear to let her go and was sad, so he didn't wake her up. He just gently moved her head away from his already numb arms, tucked the corners of the quilt for her, and then got up quietly.
This girl didn't sleep all night last night, and insisted on not sleeping for a quarter of an hour ago, saying that she wanted to send herself away. As a result, she finally couldn't hold on and fell asleep.
Get up, carry the clothes outside.
Kan Ling, who was on the night outside, immediately stood up.
Luo Cheng signaled him not to speak, "Don't wake her up."
Standing outside and put on his clothes, Luo Cheng turned back to look at the quiet bedroom. He said to Wang Huiniang who was standing next to him, "You are here to guard your adopted mother. When she wakes up, she will say that I have left and you don't have to come and see me off again."
After a little absent-mindedly, Luo Cheng went out.
As a result, after walking through several streets and alleys, she suddenly found a figure standing at the intersection. She was panting and didn't even comb her hair well. She couldn't help but feel silence. Who is that girl Binbin?
Seeing that she was like this, Luo Cheng must have taken the shortcut to come over.
He smiled and walked forward.
"Why did you wake up?"
"I promised that I'll give it to you."
"Seeing that you are sleeping soundly, I don't want to call you, I want you to sleep more."
The girl raised her face and said, "Take me with you, even the ends of the world, I want to follow you."
"But I went to war and I couldn't bring women in the army."
"Last time Onozawa suppressed bandits, I won't follow you, I will be your messenger just like before."
"This time it's different. I'm going to Zhuo County and Liaodong. At that time, there are countless soldiers and strict military regulations. If you are found in the army, I would be reluctant to leave you."
After coaxing for a long time, Luo Cheng finally sent Shan Binbin back, watched her take off her coat and lie on the bed, and covered her with a quilt before leaving.
After leaving the city, at the gate of the military camp.
Luo Cheng saw his brother-in-law Shan Xiongxin, his sworn brother Xu Shiji, and even his cousin Shubao, who was still filial, came to see him off this time.
"I had always wanted to introduce you to the general who asked you to come to my Donglai Military Camp. Who would have thought that you have become the Sima of the Seventh-rank Military Mansion, and you are going to go to the Liaodong front line with 600 soldiers, but I can only stay at home." Qin Qiong said with some regret.
When his mother passed away, he wanted to keep mourning at home for twenty-seven months.
Cheng Yaojin said indifferently, "I don't want to fight that hard battle, and I'll stay at home and have fun."
Xu Shiji, who was on the other side, laughed a few times, "You're thinking well, but do you think you don't have to go to Liaodong if you crouch in the village group? I think this Eastern Expedition may not be able to escape. The Seventh Brother is just the first batch, and we will go sooner or later."
Zhai Rang said, "Brother Xu Liu is right. The scale of this Eastern Expedition is unprecedentedly powerful. The Guards, regardless of north and south, almost all came out. Even the county and military regiments in various places must be responsible for the task of escorting food, grass and weapons."
Cheng Yaojin curled his lips.
"This battle is not like this. It mobilized millions of troops? Is it a war or a show-off?"
"Our army has always been strong and powerful." Huang Junhan said with a smile. When he pacified Nanchen, he sent 520,000 troops and drove south with all his strength.
Later, when the Turks were attacked north, they sent 200,000 to 300,000 troops every time. In the 18th year of Kaihuang, they also sent 300,000 troops.
However, his tone of speaking was actually the same as Cheng Yaojin and the others. They all thought that the emperor's Eastern Expedition was too absurd. They were not opposed to the Eastern Expedition, but they felt that there was no need to use so many troops.
When he was conquering Nanchen, he sent 520,000 troops, which were all soldiers from all over the front of the Yangtze River. After all, he was fighting in the Central Plains, and supplies were convenient. Even if he entered Nanchen, he could get supplies.
And conquer Liao?
One million troops could only squeeze in a small place in western Liaoning, with an extremely long supply line. Although the emperor's intention was obvious, he wanted to rely on a million troops to rush into Pyongyang and directly destroy Goguryeo.
But they didn't think it would be so easy.
Luo Cheng was naturally very pessimistic about this Eastern Expedition. After all, history has long proved this failure. But what can his status be?
Unless he wants to be the bird with no head, he will not dare to give up his wealth to rebel now, and the time has not come.
After the last battle of Onozawa, Luo Cheng was promoted to the seventh-rank Sima with success.
However, the people who were jointly suppressed by Shan Xiongxin and others were completely the opposite. Not only did they not receive any promotion, they all withdrew from the county military system, and now they all held a village group.
The reason for this is actually very simple. Xu Chengsan and other families were all powerful men in a county, but they were all nobles and high-ranking officials of the Northern Qi Dynasty. The court was quite afraid of these people. In addition, after the last suppression of bandits, they did not spend money to resolve the relationship like Luo Cheng.
So, this result was achieved.
These people simply retreated directly from the county soldiers. Anyway, they had a strong family and still had some influence in the local area. After spending some money, they got the title of the township rank captain, and then paid for the money and brought the team themselves.
In the local counties, they are also willing to see these local tyrants who can pay for their own money to build village groups, saving a lot of money in the county and still use it when needed.
"You really plan to stay in the countryside and play by yourself in the future?"
Luo Cheng asked with a smile.
"I have seen through it. Now there are people in the world. They don't want to see me stand up." Old Cheng doesn't make a mistake.
Qin Qiong felt that things might not be like this, "Actually, I think you may have some misunderstandings."
"I misunderstood a bird, that's it. Second brother, don't think you can be a brigade coach under the tent of Huer. You really think you have been valued. That's just that you are now in a low position. When you want to go further, you will find that you will be restricted and suppressed everywhere. To put it bluntly, we were all from the Northern Qi Dynasty, and those in power were from Guanlong. In their eyes, we are not even comparable to Brother Luo. After all, although he is from Shandong, he has only been ordinary people in the past few generations."
Qin Qiong could only smile. Although he had some prejudice, he had some reasons.
"It's a pity that you are going to Zhuo County. If you go to Donglai County, I can also write a letter to Lai Dashuo and recommend you. But I can write a letter to Lai Shuo afterwards. He must have a lot to do with Zhuo County. I will see if I can arrange some care."
"Thank you, second brother." Luo Cheng did not make any politeness either. He knew that among the millions of troops in Zhuo County, he, a seventh-rank Sima, was actually a pawn. If no one was taken care of, he might have become cannon fodder at any time.
"Brother, help me take care of Binbin." Luo Cheng finally entrusts Shan Xiongxin.
"When I'm not at home, please help me take care of Zhangqiu."
