Chapter 14 The Root of All Evil

It’s fine to have foreign wars, but there is nothing we can do about it. It’s the rise of the nation and the survival of the country.

But good days, I have to break the good country into pieces. I have to provoke a war for a little selfish desire and raise a long sword to my compatriots. This is the sinner of the ages.

"A real man should be born like this, and he can replace him."

"Would you rather have a genital?"

These two famous sayings throughout the ages may not be the original sin of all evil.

...

"Mr. Lang?" The personal soldiers called out, interrupting Zhang Jun who was straying and thinking.

"Can Weiwei Zhang be there?"

"The commander is in the camp outside the city, and the warehouse is in the county government. Can the husband and wife want to eat?"

"Okay, I'm really hungry." Zhang Jun looked around and said, "What a fuck, where to eat?"

"I'll ask for soup cakes... I'll ask the chief lieutenant to discuss matters."

The personal soldier Nuo ran to do business, and Zhang Jun turned his head and returned to the house. Only then did he have time to look at the environment in the house.

The buildings of the Tang Dynasty can be referred to as ancient Japanese buildings, which basically retain the characteristics and styles of that time. They are wide, the walls are not too high, and the tiles are towering, which is a bit like wearing a wide hat.

Zhang Jun entered the main hall, which is the main hall of the north, but I don’t know if it was Li Chulin’s residence. It should be. His family is all in Fengxiang, so no one dares to live here.

This is a courtyard house located behind the Three Halls. It turns out that Li Chulin's deputy general, Jeongjun and others lived in the east and west sides. At this moment, they have all become ashes in the fields outside the city, including his 127 personal soldiers.

There will definitely be fish that miss the net, but it will not affect anything. It is not worth worrying. Nowadays, there will be nothing without military power and you will not be able to make trouble.

As for assassins, the trend of assassination in the Tang Dynasty was prevalent, and even moved eastward to Japan to develop into a famous ninja, that is, the Dead Soldier.

The Tang Dynasty was open and the world was martial, and the ethnic policies were relaxed and not xenophobic. It was quite common for Han and Hu to live in harmony, which also promoted the martial arts and fighting folk customs.

There is still a big difference between ancient people and modern people, such as killing people. It is useless for modern people to give you guns and knives. It is difficult to overcome the mental obstacles. But it was very common in ancient times, even women can do it.

There is a completely different worldview and moral norms. The saying that killing you in the fierce Tang Dynasty is not a verbal statement.

So, no matter whether it was a political struggle or a power struggle in the Tang Dynasty, the figure of the assassin was always sandwiched between them. If I don’t accept you, I will kill you.

In his later years, Li Linfu often hid in the wall because he was afraid of being stabbed, and even his family could not find him.

However, Zhang Jun was not worried about the assassins. Although they were all brave soldiers, they were not good at using them in the army, that is, they were proud of the people or civil servants.

It only takes a few sergeants to teach the assassin to be a new person.

There was no bed in the house. In the Tang Dynasty, we had beds, just tatamis. Therefore, there were no tables, chairs and stools.

Zhang Jun stood at the door and looked in. He had many mud marks on the couch. He was too tired yesterday and didn't even take off his shoes.

I couldn't sit here, so I had to turn around and go out to Santang. At least there were tables and chairs there. The chairs in the yamen were such as those with ring chairs, without a backrest, but they were already more comfortable than Hu's bed.

Hu Bed is a folding chair, but it is small and it is not comfortable to sit down. This kind of thing is quite popular in the Tang Dynasty because it is convenient and can be hung on the wall when not in use without it.

Round chairs are not common at this time, and people are still used to kneeling down.

When the emperor and his ministers discussed things, everyone was kneeling together, including eating. At this moment, the dining table was basically the height of kneeling.

There are also stools, which are only faces and legs. They are relatively short, round and square. The legs are carved very gorgeously, and are generally used by women. The princesses and ladies in the Tang Dynasty generally have several particularly gorgeous moon benches.

Only the yamen will be equipped with high tables and ring chairs. At home, there are usually beds.

In the Tang Dynasty, all the things that could sit or lie on the flat bed were moaned. No matter how big or small, they could sit and lie down and rest. Some had a backrest, and some did not.

In fact, it was this kind of thing that gradually developed into the bed where people slept in later (Song Dynasty). The name was also passed down from this time.

...

After Zhang Jun ate a large bowl of thick mutton noodles with garlic, Zhang Liang followed his personal soldiers in.

Don’t mention the tone. People in the Tang Dynasty liked to eat garlic, and they only had to eat garlic. It felt like eating it like this. So the tone belongs to everyone, and if you have it, you can’t smell anything.

"Langjun."

Zhang Jun looked around and there was only a ring chair, so he had to stand up and said, "Let's go, let's talk outside."

Two people came out of the room.

The sun is shining now, adding a little warmth to this winter day. The tall and bare trees outside the courtyard seem to be no longer as if they are deserted and a little angry.

Zhang Jun used to pinch his right hand, and then he remembered that there was no more cigarettes. Alas. Melancholy.

"Why did the husband sigh?"

"Brother Zhang, there are only two of us, so don't be so polite. Are the athletes in the camp okay?"

"Everything is as usual. The soldiers are working on the barracks and logging wood to extend the house. The family has already heard the news. All the families are preparing. I think they can be properly placed when they come to Mengbao's ministry. Don't worry."

"Can you find out about the news from each state or county?"

"I have sent a kid out to inquire. The meaning of Cangcao is to understand the fact that the pseudo-officials of each county have been killed, and summon all counties in the palace to follow the orders of the Langjun. I agree with Cangcao's idea and plan to transfer the troops outside to the defense. They all need the Langjun to seal the letter."

Li Chulin killed Zhang Yi who was demoted a few days ago. He had already established himself as the governor of Fengxiang and announced that he would recall Fengxiang's army and no longer respect Zhu Li's orders.

No wonder when he met Li Chulin that day, he looked arrogant. It turned out that he was a private official of the vassal state without rank. Zhang Jun was a fourth-rank official who was enthroned by the dynasty. Although he was not afraid, he did not care about it.

Unfortunately, he was awesome for a few days, and before he could communicate with Zhang Jun, he was chopped off by Zhang Jun.

This is good news for Zhang Jun.

From Meng Bao to Li Huaiguang's tribes, it can be seen that the Tang generals still account for half of their loyalty to the country and the royal family.

His killing of Li Chulin was considered to be the punishment of false rebels. In addition, Feng Xiang Shaoyin also served as the Sima of the Mansion, and is now the highest military and political officer of Feng Xiang's Mansion. Another young Yin has no military power and can be ignored.

There is no need to worry about any other ideas in the counties and local troops below. If you have any ideas, he will have any ideas.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Jun ordered Zhang Liang: "Can you send people to each county to announce changes and ask the county magistrate to do what is normal, but if you are moved, report it in time. In addition, send someone to summon troops from all departments to return to the camp."

Zhang Liang went to summon the deceased master to write official documents from history, and then asked Zhang Jun to use the seal and stamp it with the seal of the Jiedushi, which led to the people sending troops from various counties and all walks of life.

This is a bit naive to tell the Zhang Jun of each county that he acted as a military governor, but Zhang Jun did not object.

This is what it means, and the Jiedushi Zhang Jun made a decision.

Don't use this position as a modern secretary, or more inclined to be an assistant. The position is not low and is on par with Zhang Jun. But this guy is more good at dealing with things, and he regards himself as a subordinate and has a very positive attitude.
