Chapter 624: Sit back and relax
Ganba opened a house. Ganqi bought him a house near the south of Dongcheng. The house is not small, but Ganba is not very happy. Fortunately, Ganqi did not force him to move there with his wife and children.
Di Yong's mansion is next to Gan Ba's house, which was also a one-time operation by Gan Qi. Zhou Tong is also a new mansion, but it is in Xicheng.
Then there were disabled soldiers coming from the north one after another and moved into the house of three people, first dozens, then one or two hundred, then three or four hundred.
Many disabled old soldiers came to the Ganqi family. The old soldiers who entered the Ganqi family were all written on their faces at this time, but most of them looked a little timid. When they saw the female family members in the family, they were all avoided, afraid of rushing to this and there, afraid that they would not understand the rules, etc.
Gan Ba was originally unhappy, but after seeing these old soldiers, he suddenly laughed and ordered people to prepare a banquet every day. He would host five or six tables today, seven or eight tables tomorrow, and then a round of turns started again. This was not what Gan Qi ordered, and Gan Ba took the initiative to do this.
Gan Qi sometimes attended banquets. After processing official documents for a day from the Political Affairs Hall, he came to the gate and headed straight to the side courtyard. The old soldiers lived in the side courtyard. The banquet was already half over and there was already a lot of people.
As soon as Gan Qi entered the hall of the side courtyard, someone shouted loudly, and the crowd immediately stopped.
"Meet Mr. Gan!"
"Meet Mr. Gan!"
Gan Qi bowed and said, "Sit down, sit down, I'll take a glass of water and wine."
Gan Ba hurried forward and gave up his position, allowing Gan Qi to sit in the middle. After Gan Qi sat down, he took off his head crown in three or five seconds. He threw it onto a small table and shook his head. He rolled up the sleeves of a purple python robe.
Looking at the left and right? Everyone who drank a lot of wine was still standing.
"Sit down, sit down? Pour wine." Gan Qi waved his big hand repeatedly, and Gan Ba said on the side: "Brother tells you to sit down? That's the military order? All sit down."
"Abide by the order!"
Everyone shouted in unison, with Hebei accents, Northwest accents, Yanyun accents? And Henan accents? There were even one or two Quanzhou accents, all over the world.
"Full it!" Gan Qi poured the wine himself, using Gan Ba's cup, and then raised it left and right: "Drinke this cup full!"
Everyone hurriedly drank, and looked at Gan Qi after drinking? It seemed a little cramped.
Gan Qi asked, "Come here in Bianjing, I don't know if you are used to it..."
"Habits? �
"Yes, my husband is very kind, my little Minggan is within five. It's a pity that he can't charge for him anymore, but instead let him keep him free to eat and drink..."
Gan Qi immediately continued when he heard this, "What's the matter? You have been killed in the battle formation for a few times, and now you should enjoy your happiness. Those with families and children have taken over and built a house in Ganjia Village outside the city. There are no wives. My Gan family is a big family and there are many girls' families. If you can't reach a talk, you will go to the next village. I think you are all meritorious people, so you should have some industries and savings. It should not be difficult to find a wife and live a good life."
These people are really not poor, mainly Gan Qi is generous and does not hesitate to reward merits. In Yanyun, there are more than 100 acres of good land, and the few are seven or eight acres. There are not a hundred or forty acres of money in the bag. Most of the items seized by Gan Qi in the wars over the years are in their hands.
"Mr...." A man in his early twenties, with only one and a half leg, was already covering his face and crying. He was very moved and said, "Mr., young people are the blessings they have cultivated in their previous life..."
"Stop, don't say these words, I, Gan Qi, will never treat my brothers badly." Gan Qi didn't do the pretentious act, just poured wine and drank it with everyone again.
Gan Ba was still saying, "My elder brother is the most loyal. Over the years, he has always been righteous to his brothers. Eat wine and drink!"
The banquet continued, but it seemed a little restrained. It was not as popular as before. I think it was mainly because of the fact that Gan Xianggong was in person. Most of the military men dared not act rashly. Gan Qi knew that it would be better to leave first after drinking a few drinks, so as not to be unhappy for everyone.
However, before leaving, Ganqi had another thing to arrange: "From tomorrow, the escorts who traveled will ask their brothers. This is also considered an errand, how about it?"
Everyone looked at each other, disabled, some people did not have a half-arm, some people did not have a half-legged legs, some people were burned beyond recognition, some people had only one ear, half-learning their nose, and one less eyeball...
To put it bluntly, these people think they are not good-looking and cannot be on the table.
Some people also said, "My husband, the young men are really giving their face to me when they go out. My husband is the prime minister of the current dynasty. Isn't it a joke to bring us such a group of guards?"
Gan Qi was upright and slightly angry: "What are you saying? Brothers are like this for the country. It is a glory. Who can't praise the heroes when they see him? I will be protected by a group of heroes, how can I not be ashamed?"
"this……"
"What this is what? From now on, I will tell you what I say. In the mansion, if anyone goes out, he will take the guards, let the brothers take office. If you don't want others, you will have brothers." Gan Qi said this truth. If you only have glory, how can you be embarrassed?
Besides, in terms of combat effectiveness, these old soldiers are not comparable to ordinary people, even though they are all disabled.
Everyone didn't know what to say, but after all, they were still a little inferior, but their eyes were slightly red.
But Gan Qi also said: "The legs are all matched with horses, and those without hands are tied with round shields on their arms or shoulders. If they are not good-looking on their faces, then show them to others and teach them to see what heroes are. When they come in and out, the armor is bright and bright, weapons, whatever they are good at using, and those who want bows, crossbows, feathers and arrows are hung. Damn, this is the military man, this is the way he has won the world."
Gan Qi showed some banditry, and after saying that, he had already stood up: "That's all, who doesn't follow me, go out of the gate, and get a board."
After Gan Qi finished speaking, he picked up his head crown and left, still feeling a little unhappy, as if he had forgotten that he was at home and there was no military gate.
As soon as Gan Qi left, everyone looked at each other and looked at Daiba again.
While drinking, Daiba said silly: "Military orders, don't make your brother angry."
"Master Ba, it's not that young people don't want to do it. I'm really afraid of losing face to my husband. The dignitaries in the capital are not furious, and all the followers around me have to choose beautiful ones. Our... this is really ugly... Then the whole body is chugging, and it's really a joke..."
"It's a joke. If you use the hammer, just carry the hammer. If you don't listen to your brother, you will suffer." Gan Ba was also a little unhappy.
"Master Ba... Then..."
"Wine, then, that's it... This is a bad deal. If it's not good, then it's a joke." Gan Ba was too lazy to say too much. He liked this feeling. It's like this in the army. How could there be so many beautiful and beautiful clothes in the bright clothes? These people will follow him out in the future, and he likes it.
Early the next morning, Gan Qi was going to work. Before Gan Qi got up, he heard Gan Ba yelling at the door.
"Yu Laosan, do you have to beat a drum before you can come out?"
Yu Laosan came out, looking beyond recognition, burned, like an evil ghost from hell, but he was timid, he hesitating: "I...I won't go, Master Ba, don't order my Mao, I'm like this..."
"Line, line up, where is your gun? Go and get it quickly. It's a mistake and chop your dog's head!" Gan Ba was still scolding, the evil one is the evil one.
"I'll go now, I'll go now." Yu Laosan was probably still "afraid" of the evil people.
"Spirit point, spiritual point, eight horses are in front of the road, eight horses are behind the back hall, three in front of the frame, three in back of the frame, one in each of the left and right..."
"Half leg tied up, don't fall down immediately..."
"Master Ba, don't worry, can I still fall down on the horse's back if I die..."
"Yu Laosan, why are you making a gauze scarf? The girl is so angry, it's not in Xingqing Mansion..."
Gan Ba kept making arrangements, busy and busy. At this time, Gan Qi walked out, straightened his crown, stroked his clothes, looked around, nodded with satisfaction, and got in the car and set off.
Gan Ba personally drove the car, smiling constantly, and talking nonsense: "Okay, okay, so good, hehe..."
Early in the morning, there were not many people on the street, but whenever someone passed by, they would stop and watch the group, and they were all amazed.
There are also many discussions.
"Where is the team? This..."
"Look at the frame, you can walk this road so early, who else can you be if you don't have Xianggong Gan?"
"this……"
"Oh... you don't know, I've known this for a long time. These are old soldiers in the battle formation, and they all follow the Lord Gan to death. They are kind-hearted. Recently, there have been constant such old soldiers coming from the north and being raised in the mansion..."
"Gan Xianggong is a good official. He loves the people as much as his son, and the same is true for his soldiers."
"It's just strange. Mr. Gan used to have escorts, but now he lets these people be escorts. This team looks weird..."
"It's a bit weird..."
"Oh... when I see them, I know that the battle formation is so painful..."
...
There were countless discussions. The military men had errands, but they could hear sporadic words, so they could hear their faces red and white. Fortunately, no one spoke to despise them.
When he arrived at the Political Affairs Hall, Gan Qi went to work by himself. Gan Ba still had to take these people to rest and stand guard.
When officials and yamen runners come and go, they always have to look at these people, but they all know that Gan Xianggong has good intentions. These disabled military men are blessed to meet Gan Xianggong.
It also made many people understand indirectly how terrible war is.
Not long after this incident, the entire Bianliang City spread everywhere. The Beijing Times even reported it, calling on the people to respect the military and even introduced several typical examples, such as Yu Laosan, where the family is, how hard the family is, how he is in the army, where he has made achievements, where he has suffered, where he has been burned to pieces, where he has been burned to death, and where he has been burned to tears. This story can't help but make people cry.
This kind of publicity method is naturally based on Gan Qi's arrangement. If you want to improve the status of the military Han in the Song Dynasty, this kind of publicity is essential. Any story of these military Han can be touched, and there should be a series of story reports.
Such an operation will naturally have an impact. In the next few days, some people even waited halfway to see the team of Gan Xianggong going to and from get off work passing by. There were seventy or eighty people every time, and then they made some comments. Some people guessed whether this was Yu Laosan and that was Guo Dabao...
In hiding soldiers in the capital, Gan Qi hid so openly that it was hard to say anything, and mainly because no one thought about it elsewhere. He admired Gan Qi's intention and moved people.
However, in the imperial city, the guilty and worried emperor Zhao Xu still thought about it some other places, and only Zhao Zonghan could say the thoughts in his heart.
In private, Zhao Xu asked Zhao Zonghan bluntly: "Uncle Emperor, I heard that he had taken two or three thousand old soldiers to the capital?"
Zhao Zonghan nodded: "Well, it's spread all over the capital, and I also sent someone to see it. There are also some people in Di Yong and Zhou Dong's mansion, and some are being arranged to be on duty at the Armenian Guardhouse..."
Zhao Xu frowned and stopped talking.
Zhao Zonghan seemed to know something and said, "Does the official family think that he is willing to win people's hearts? The official family doesn't have to think too much. These military men are all people who have made achievements for the country, so it should be given good treatment. The court has no money to do this. Gan Xiang thought that it was because he was afraid that the military men would be disappointed and would lead to shrinking from fighting. This is a good way..."
"I don't think of this... I want to... no one else says... Alas... Isn't this considered raising private soldiers?" Zhao Xu said, which is also the key point.
"It's not that all of them are disabled, missing arms and legs, blind and deaf. The officials are over-thinking. Even if they want to raise private soldiers, they won't raise them." Zhao Zonghan replied.
"Is this really the case? Have you sent someone to investigate carefully?" Zhao Xu was still worried.
"I have investigated it. Except for Gan Ba's godson who came with some barbarians and lived in Gan Ba's mansion, most of the others are like this. Some of them even have no legs and cannot walk on the road. These people will not be able to. Besides, these people have already entered the city, so how can the officials drive them out? That is really a loss of people's hearts. The officials are useless."
What Zhao Zonghan said was Gan Qi's open conspiracy. Gan Qi brought these people to the capital to enjoy their happiness, and asked who dared to drive them out? Whoever dared to drive them out would be flooded by the spit-sprayed stars.
