The river flows eastward and the blue waves are surging. Although the cold wind on the river was still bitter, Mu Haogu only felt that all this was like a dream. Although the mission of sending an envoy and recruiting security this time was unsurprisingly and completely failed; but he himself finally survived, which is a blessing in some misfortune.
In fact, instead of killing him on the spot to sacrifice the flag, the other party recited a poem "Yong Jue Nian" on the spot for him to take home.
"The boss can say, it seems that nowadays, the Qianfu is corrupted, and the jackal is in power.
I laughed at you, and I was at ease, and I was shocked to disperse the flying snow in the building.
Laughing at riches and wealth is like a hairpin. Who will listen to crying and crying
Remember that year, only Xi Chuang Yue.
Re-enter the wine, change Mingse. There is no difference between people.
Ask Qu Nong: After all, Shenzhou, how many clutches
No one cared for the sweat and salt truck, collecting the bones from thousands of miles away.
The eyes are cut off, and the road to Guanhe is dead.
I pity the gentleman Zhongxiao Wu the most, saying, "A man has a hard heart to give up."
Look at the hands, patch up the sky. "
But the people he walked with didn't have this kind of luck. The words that the thief confessed almost humiliated and slapped his face, as if still lingering in his ears.
"Naturally, I won't kill you easily. The world corrupts Dao like this. It can be said that there is one of the people in the dynasty that can be blamed, and no one can get rid of it; even if you kill you here, just one What can be changed by the emasculation of the message? What can be done in the world..."
"Furthermore, I have to count on you to send the letter back... However, if you follow me, I will deduct it as a guarantee... to make sure that you can pass my meaning back word by word... It’s not about overlying, slanderously avoiding the importance and deceiving the superior and the inferior..."
"If you dare to conceal something and make a mistake, don't blame me for being impolite... With the greatness of the world, the great rewards and rewards for a few of Jing Ke and Nie Zheng who have repaid their lives, it is more than enough to cut off a castration. of.."
Therefore, his impression of the last scene before he was bracketed and left was that in the school, countless soldiers of peace thief in the school chanted the new words in unison:
"The man has a hard-hearted heart, and he will try his hand to mend the cracks in the sky."
However, there is another thing that bothers Mu Haogu. The team on his own mission actually let people come in halfway, and the opponent was actually Cao Yi, the eldest son of the Tianping Army Jiedu and Jiangxi Recruitment ambassador Cao Quanzhu and the pioneer horse ambassador; the ghost knows how he borrowed in the mission. When crossing the border, threatening and profiting to buy the relevant people and concealing his own righteous messenger, wanted to take the risk of going deep behind the enemy line to spy on the thief.
In the end, his mother was caught by these peaceful thieves on the spot; although the other party may not know his identity at the time, if he is willing to work hard and form it, I am afraid it will not last long. For Mu Haogu, who had failed his original mission and returned with his life, it was simply a nightmare and disaster that made it worse.
Therefore, on the way back this time, he was afraid that he would be hacked to death by the Cao who had heard the bad news and inside information. He would send people to hack to death or tie up stones and throw them into the Yangtze River to vent his anger; that was really the end of everything. Therefore, at the moment, I can only think of a way to sail along the Yangtze River, and continue to release the river to the Hanyang generation, and then turn to the Huainan area of Jiangbei, which has not yet been ravaged by grass thieves, in order to return to Chang'an.
However, his instinctive reaction that has been immersed in power tactics and stakes for many years has allowed him to rebalance the pros and cons of the pros and cons. Immediately, he was a little surprised to find that in this piece of bad news and bad news, it is not that there are no hidden turning points and variables;
Because in addition to the servants and handymen who were left on the ship, all his subordinates and rebels were secured by these peaceful thieves for the right to detain; but this also meant that he had implicitly obtained the unique knowledge and explanation afterwards. right.
You know, among the internal officials, military princes, Fangge, and civil servants he is accompanying, you can guarantee that there are some elders, or the "Da Afu" and Yang Xianggong from Da Nei who are in power. What about the eyeliner or the dark child; since Cao Zhaocun knew how to use this opportunity to spy on the enemy's situation, how could those princes and nobles fail to think of it.
But now that this situation has come down, he has achieved something; at least no one can jump out to question and refute him in a short period of time. Thinking of this, Mu Haogu couldn't help but clenched into a fist and thumped it heavily on the boat board, and then amid the bloody swelling and tingling sensation, some oozing laughed.
Of course, he will not try with his own wealth and life, the determination and courage of what step an established anti-thief leader can do; but it does not prevent him from adding fuel and jealousy to his performance in other places and details. In order to get the most benefits and potential capital from it.
After all, he was the chief chief who faced the Taiping thief in Hunan, and was the only insider who was able to retreat. Just aiming at the other party is a new thieves in the current world, but in front of the xianggongs, it is also comparable to Huang Ni, and he has repeatedly called for peace. He is somewhat sure after seeing Xiao Yang. , Let him preserve his wealth and power.
. . . . . . . . .
After the scene that happened on the school ground spread, it also stirred up a lot of aftermaths in Jiangling City. Compared with the old soldiers of the Taiping Army who have long been accustomed to this, the repercussions of the old rebels and newly recruited soldiers from along the way are much more intense and different.
For example, New Eighth Battalion Captain Zhong Yi, who was newly transferred from Canton on a regular basis, met his old subordinate Zhao Jingfan at a small private meeting and heard the other party complain like this:
"Nowadays, there are a lot of rumors and nonsense, and it is said that'throwing thieves early is not as good as throwing thieves late; those who are born to the end of the army have a reputation for being a soldier, it is better to scream for thieves and disturb the rest of the world. "
"Don't worry about him, these are just a little bit of a fool who can't see where he is, and don't know where his family's future lies... But after doing a trick, he can be promoted and made fortune and domineering without fighting. It’s just an illusory dream;"
It seems that after staying in Canton for a long time, Zhong Yi, who has become darker and darker, is quite disdainful.
"But even if there is no such thing as security, these prospects and prospects will not have the opportunity to realize and fulfill the promise under the current situation and situation of the Taiping Army... At most it will take more effort and setbacks, but the victory is that you don't have to be controlled by others. There is a lot of room for vertical and horizontal display..."
Having said that, he sighed, and said to Zhao Jingfan who was somewhat incomprehensible:
"Don’t they think that the court’s move to peace is due to its kindness and goodwill to the rebels! If it weren’t for the court’s inability to restrain and attack them, why not change the course and slay them, and use their fame to appease peace at every turn? You Rongzhi... Even after the establishment of the title, wouldn't it be weakened and suppressed?"
"But once the righteousness of the subordination of this monarch and minister is accepted, the rebels who want to do something and behave in the future will be the subordination of unjustified traitors and usurpers... At the same time, it is based on the original reliance as the foundation. The many rationale and propositions of acting for the sky, making up for the average, and advocating for the people, have been abandoned."
"In this way, not only those soldiers who came together for survival and self-help in the army, will be chilled and estranged, even fleeing and rushing out, even if they are in accordance with the "Taiping Field System" in the locality, they can finally be settled down. The soldiers, civilians, and civilians will also become confused and disturbed, and since then they will begin to renounce their morality..."
"At this time, as long as people are sent to confuse and instigate, it will be a cannibalistic chaos... Maybe the only thing left is the dilapidated place, and the opportunists who are lucky and stubborn. ;"
"And the great situation and foundation of the Rebel army have been disintegrated without fighting and chaos... And all this only stems from the imperial edict and a number of imaginary official titles..."
"Therefore, from a fundamental point of view, it is really unwise to be subject to the name of the court for the momentary utilitarian gains and losses; it can be said that the court's conspiracy for peace is so poisonous... ."
"You don't have to look at me like this..."
Seeing that Zhao Jingfan was already stunned and unconsciously stern, Zhong Yi couldn't help but sip a little wine before explaining.
"These principles and interests are just a little bit of experience that I gradually realized in the internal lectures of "Senior Management" and "Dust and Smoke of the Past Dynasties"..."
"Of course, the corresponding principles and knowledge, if you have the heart and interest, you will have to wait until my rank before you have the opportunity to learn and learn..."
"Then what should I do..."
Zhao Jingfan put down his cup and took a deep breath, calmed down his extremely complicated mood and said again.
"Of course I went to the Yuhousi to inform you..."
Zhong Yi did not hesitate to pick up a fried fish floss and replied.
"I'm afraid this is wrong..."
Zhao Jingfan suddenly became hesitant and stopped.
"It's all the unintentional words that are passed down by mouth in private close to Paoze, so why do you need to get this step... I..."
"I ask you to go out and report, just to think about his future, and also for your future... But the knowledge of passing this word is tangible and intangible, and when he speaks, he already bears the corresponding responsibility. It's involved..."
Zhong Yi couldn't help putting down the pouring jug and whispering in a bitter voice.
"Do you think that if you don't say anything about your old feelings, you can make him stay away for a while? This kind of attitude is not right and your heart is swaying. Sooner or later, someone will not report it... And the sooner you will be discovered, the more you suffer. The more serious the impact and relationship between the two."
"At that time, in case he can't stand the situation and clings to it indiscriminately, what should you consider as your position of invisibility instead of knowing it... even in the rebel army, it is quite a factual place," Wouldn't it involve too much, at best, it's just a rough warning?"
Zhong Yi paused and said solemnly.
"But once there are opportunities for selection and dispatch in the future, will anyone dare to use such a candidate who is not firm enough and ignorant of personal affair; I am afraid that the corresponding future in this army will be completely cut off... Even if the rebels have lofty ambitions and more long-term prospects, they will have little to do with you..."
"This is a very important relationship... Thank you for mentioning it, it almost made me mistaken myself to the end..."
Hearing this, Zhao Jingfan couldn't help but his back was soaked with cold sweat, and he raised his hand in a panic and thanked him:
"I'll go to Yuhousi immediately to explain..."
"When you look back, you can tell those who are hesitant... It is precisely because of the relationship that my generation has stayed in the army, the more at this time, the more you must show a firm attitude and confidence to prove yourself. what."
Here Zhong Yi immediately stopped him and ordered.
"As far as feeling and reasoning is concerned: Is it possible to succumb to the mere official bodies of the mere mere officials who are waiting for the idlers, can it be compared with the chance of the Yuan Cong minister who will create a new situation in the future? The future is just a little profitable with a smile..."
. . . . . . . .
In the city of Raozhou, which had already regrouped and became prosperous, Cui Miao, the ceremonial envoy of the General's Mansion, also saw a visitor in private.
"Now, what else do you and I have to say? It's about the old knowledge at most. It will take you a little bit easier to get you on the road..."
Cui Miu didn't give the other side a good face.
"If I could let Lang Jun return to the house and be proud of his family..."
The people who came here didn't care about it.
"Maybe my generation will have the opportunity to serve as ministers in the palace in the future, but I don't know it..." (End of this chapter)
