my wife is mulan

Do you think there are too few children?

"Let's go into the camp and talk!" Zhao Junsheng said to Hua Mulan, letting go of his doubts.

Hua Mulan nodded, and greeted the escorting soldiers, generals and coachmen to drive the carts loaded with luggage into the luggage warehouse in the barracks.

Zhao Junsheng led Hua Mulan to the lobby of the barracks. As soon as Hua Mulan entered the barracks, she became a curious baby, "Brother Junsheng, I haven't been here for only half a month. How can there be such a big change here? The barracks are so well-organized, how can you tell me?" There are wooden barracks, which are much more spectacular than before!"

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "Winter will come soon. Last winter, the Jinling camp was blown down by wind and snow, how many tents were destroyed, and how many soldiers and livestock were killed by freezing. I remember clearly. Sufficient labor, so I refurbished the military camp first, and built a camp for the folks by the way, so as not to repeat the same mistakes.”

Hua Mulan nodded again and again, and said, "Brother Junsheng did a good job in this move. After I go back, I will also suggest to General Pi to renovate the camp barracks!"

The two came to Zhao Junsheng's separate barracks. Zhao Junsheng poured Hua Mulan a cup of hot tea, asked her to sit down, and asked about the situation of the new army in Huaishuo Town.

After taking a sip of tea, Hua Mulan said: "All the recruits have been reported so far. We in Huaishuo Town will practice as soon as they come. If there are enough buildings, we will organize them into a building and practice immediately. In order to speed up the progress of the training As a result, I made a suggestion to General Pi that he would be in charge of six buildings, and I would be in charge of four buildings. Each of them would personally lead the drills. The content of the drills was the same. I was also in charge of military discipline. This batch of recruits The situation is not bad, many of them have the basics of martial arts and horseback riding and archery, and they can be sent to the battlefield after only a few months of practice!"

Zhao Junsheng asked again: "Apart from Huaishuo Town, what other military towns are there in Jinling Camp?"

"There are also the Right Guard Army, the Xiao Cavalry Army, and Woye Town. Woye Town has also recruited soldiers and horses to restore the organizational system, and Yuan He took over as the town general! The Right Guard Army and the Xiao Cavalry Army have also added soldiers and horses. Now the entire Jinling University The battalion has nearly 3 soldiers and horses!"

When Zhao Junsheng heard these words, he was in a different mood. This guy Gu Bi is really poisonous. Nearly [-] soldiers and horses have such a huge demand for food, grass and military supplies, but this man does not allocate any supplies for him. Grain, this is clearly going to starve him and his soldiers to death!

"Okay, since you, Gu Bi, have treated me like this, Zhao Junsheng and the troops in the supply camp, then don't blame me for not being sympathetic. In the future, any orders from your Gu Bi, I will refuse to obey them on the grounds that there is no military supply and supplies. I will look at you What can I do to Lao Tzu!"

Zhao Junsheng was complaining in his heart, Hua Mulan remembered something, took out a letter and handed it to Zhao Junsheng: "I almost forgot about it, this is a letter from General Pi!"

"Oh?" Zhao Junsheng took the letter in doubt, what does this leopard need to communicate with him by letter?

He opened the letter and read it, and then he understood why Pi Baozi didn't ask for the money he sent to Hua Mulan. It turned out that it wasn't that Pi Baozi had become generous, but that this guy wanted to get it through him selling customs clearance documents. More money.

This year is only two months away, and after the new year is over, Huaishuo Town can sell another five customs clearance certificates. According to the previous price, this time it can be sold for at least five thousand gold.

Hua Mulan asked curiously, "Brother Junsheng, what did General Pi say to you in the letter?"

Zhao Junsheng weighed it up, and stopped avoiding Hua Mulan, and said to her: "I think you also know that the military supplies provided by the imperial court to the armies are limited, not unlimited. You don't have to worry about armaments and armor, but other military supplies In many cases, it is not enough. If the army wants to drill strong soldiers, it needs to ensure sufficient military supplies. This requires the generals in the army to find a way to raise military expenses by themselves. It has become a normal practice to raise money for military supplies, but this matter has not been made public. Take the Jinling Camp as an example. Except for the Xiaocai Army, all other armies have their own caravans to raise military expenses, and Huaishuo Town does not. As an exception, since I was originally in charge of military supply and logistics at the Jinling Camp, I was specifically in charge of this matter. General Pi’s letter was to ask which caravan to raise the military expenses of Huaishuo Town next year! You used to be in Huaishuo The status in Shuo Town is not high,

Of course I don’t know about this, and it’s not good for me to tell you about it. After all, it’s not nice to talk about this kind of thing. It’s better if you don’t know about it. But now that you’re the deputy general and military commander of Huaishuo Town, you should also have the right to know about it. That's why I tell you! "

Hua Mulan frowned and said, "Isn't the imperial court's laws and regulations prohibiting this kind of thing?"

Zhao Junsheng shook his head and said: "There is no relevant decree in the imperial court that prohibits the army from forming caravans to raise military expenses, but on the one hand, this kind of thing is not good to say, and it will bring a bad reputation to the army; The caravans had to pay taxes to the imperial court, but the army's caravans could pass through any pass in the Wei territory without paying taxes, so the imperial court received less tax. If the emperor knew about this, he would be afraid Very unhappy, as for those ministers, it's hard to say!"

Hua Mulan immediately understood: "The emperor is not happy because the world belongs to him, and less taxation means less money for him to use; and the ministers are afraid that many people are covering up this matter, because the world businessman Most of the teams are their vassals, and they often donate money to them on weekdays. If the imperial court orders to ban this matter, it will cut off their source of income, so they will not ban it, and they may even unite to put pressure on the emperor!"

Zhao Junsheng was very relieved that Hua Mulan hit the point of the matter right away.

At this moment, Hua Mulan suddenly realized and said: "No wonder... At the military meeting of the Marshal Xingyuan yesterday, the ancient supervisor said that you and your soldiers and horses were not very obedient to dispatch, and that you had a history of mutiny, and that you borrowed money from them." The five thousand horses refused to return, and he simply didn't take him seriously, and wanted to punish you, but was opposed by King Yongchang, General Pi and Yuan He at the same time. It turned out that it was because you were theirs. If something happens to you, their money bags will be gone!"

Chapter 338 Iron Salo

Hua Mulan was busy with military affairs, so she didn't stay in Nantianbao for long, she only stayed for less than an hour before returning to the Jinling camp with the escort team.

In fact, Zhao Junsheng just wanted Hua Mulan to lead the army well and let her give full play to her military talents. He didn't want her to get in touch with these dirty things, but the higher her status, the more she knew, and she wanted to It is no longer possible to hide the dark and dirty nèi u behind these things from her, so I can only tell her the whole story, and let her have a mental preparation as soon as possible. If she knows these things after her status is higher in the future, I'm afraid will be bad.

Before time travel, Zhao Junsheng's "The Song of Mulan" thought that Hua Mulan had achieved a great story through the ages. She is a great heroine legend, and I yearned for and admired her.But who can imagine what a woman like her has experienced in the army?The road to success in stories and legends is definitely not smooth and beautiful, and it is bound to be full of bloody killings, power struggles and endless intrigues.

The era of the Northern Wei Dynasty was by no means so beautiful and peaceful. The struggle between the court and the officialdom was extremely fierce, and conspiracy was everywhere. This is an unavoidable fact.

Two days later, the [-] stones of grain and [-] bolts of cloth sent by Tuobajian had arrived, and Zhao Junsheng sent people to receive them into storage, and sent people to recruit women from surrounding counties to sew military uniforms.

Two days later, Pei Jin and businessman Qiao Yicheng returned to the Nantianbao barracks.

"Dutong, after I arrived in Shuozhou, I went to see Yang Yiqian who worked in Shuozhou. I didn't expect Yang Yiqian to ignore his subordinates at first, and even expressed doubts about the identity of his subordinates and the authenticity of customs clearance documents. The next day, his subordinates In just a few minutes, I brought 200 people and blocked the Yamen of Shuozhou Prefecture!"

Zhao Junsheng asked with interest: "Oh? How did Yang Yiqian deal with this?"

Pei Jin went on to say: "Yang Yiqian came out and saw our huge formation, and it was a sword attack. He was so scared that he peed on the spot! Du Chao, the governor of Shuozhou, went home to attend his funeral, and the new governor of Shuozhou hadn't arrived yet. Yang Yiqian was worried that there would be a big incident, so he immediately ordered someone to lift the ban on Qiao Yuanwai's warehouse, and even held a large banquet at the governor's mansion, inviting his subordinates and Qiao Yuanwai to the banquet, apologizing in person, and saying that this time he was flushed. After leaving the Dragon King Temple, similar things will never happen again in the future!"

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "Some people are low-spirited people who don't shed tears until they enter the coffin. This Yang Yiqian is obviously this kind of person. When dealing with this kind of person, you can't be afraid of him. You have to show him how powerful he is!"

At this time, Qiao Yicheng cupped his hands and said to Zhao Junsheng: "Dutong, after the ban on that batch of goods was lifted, Cao Min immediately contacted some buyers. That batch of goods was in high demand in the market, and all of them were sold at the highest price within three days. I made a lot of money, this time it can be said to be a blessing in disguise, all thanks to the support of the general! This time the peasants rushed back and brought a batch of food and grass that could not be reconciled, and there is still a batch that is being purchased, and it can be shipped within seven days at most!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded, and ordered: "Replace the remaining fabrics with blankets and silk, this winter is coming, we must quickly prepare clothes for the soldiers and the people to keep out the cold!"

Qiao Yicheng promised: "Don't worry everyone, we will start the work after the grass people go back!"

In the blink of an eye, four months have passed, and when the Chinese New Year is turned, it will be February of the second year of Shenmen.

On this day, Zhao Junsheng was practicing the cavalry. After four months of uninterrupted cavalry training, the most basic combat skills, including riding, riding and shooting, charging, hacking, stabbing, etc., have been practiced very well. Proficient, at this time Zhao Junsheng is conducting tactical training on these more than 600 cavalry.

Cao Jiao's soldiers, who were on duty at the pass, came over to report: "To report to Dutong, there are more than a dozen foreign nuns and some attendants from outside the pass. There are more than forty people in a group, and there are five carts to carry the accompanying items. They want to enter the territory of Great Wei through Nantian Fort, Cao Duwei sent a villain to report to the Dutong, should they be allowed to enter?"

Zhao Junsheng frowned and said, "Fanbang nuns? Do you know where they come from? Is there anyone among them who can speak Chinese?"

The soldier who reported the letter replied: "Go back to the capital, the leader of these foreign nuns can speak Chinese, and the rest don't know!"

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "Go and tell Cao Jiao, let him order the switch to let them in!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers quickly ran back to the tower of Nantian Castle and reported to Cao Jiao: "Captain, Commander asked you to switch and let them in!"

"Open the gates!"

Following Cao Jiao's order, the heavy pendant was hoisted by the noose.

Cao Jiao came to wait inside the city gate with a dozen of his soldiers. A group of nuns outside the city gate were wearing khaki gowns and wrapped in sheepskin. They were shivering from the cold, but they came in in two lines. The accompanying groom drives the carriage with the accompanying items.

The leading nun is in her 30s, and her charm still exists. Apart from that, the other ten nuns are generally in their 20s, and the youngest is in their [-]s.

The leading female nun from Fanbang walked up to Cao Jiao and put her hands together and said in Chinese: "Amitabha, how dare you ask the general, is this the gatekeeper? The poor nun and his party are going to enter the territory of Wei State to promote Buddhism. Please also ask the general to add a letter to the customs clearance document." Seal the official seal!"

Cao Jiao clasped his fists and said: "So that the mage can know that the last general is indeed the guard of this gate, but if he wants to affix the official seal on the customs clearance certificate, the mage needs to meet the immediate superior of the late general - the northern defense line defense." The envoys and the Jinling camp are in charge!"

"Please also recommend the general!"

Cao Jiao waved his hand to the top of the city tower to put down the heavy pendant, closed the city gate, and then said to the leading nun, "Master, please!"

"Thank you General!"

Under the leadership of Cao Jiao, a group of nuns and their entourage came outside the barracks under Nantian Fort. Only the leading nun was allowed to follow Cao Jiao into the barracks to meet Zhao Junsheng, and the others were kept out of the barracks.

When Zhao Junsheng returned to the barracks lobby, Cao Jiao was waiting in the lobby with the leading Fanbang nun.

Zhao Junsheng led Pei Jin into the lobby, and Cao Jiao introduced to the leading Fanbang nun: "Master, this is Zhao Dutong, the boss of the last general!"

The leading foreign nun put her palms together to Zhao Junsheng in a calm manner, "Amitabha, the poor nun Tiesara came from the country of Shizi, and went to the Eastern Tujin Dynasty to promote Buddhism! Passing by the precious land, please go along with me." This is convenient for the poor nun to stamp the official seal on the customs clearance document, so that the poor nun and his party can pass through the pass along the way!"

Shi Ziguo?Zhao Junsheng thought about it. In his previous life, Sri Lanka seemed to be called the country of Shizi, right?He looked at Tessaro's face again, and found that the nun did indeed look like a South Indian, with dark skin.
