Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 60 Cute
At this time, cheers came from the county seat, the city gate was opened wide, and Fang Yizhi led all the gentry in the county, dressed up and walked out of the city, walking quickly towards this side.When Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Menglong saw this, they immediately greeted them, and Fang Yi bowed his hands to Lu Xiangsheng, and said, "May I ask the general's name? I am Fang Yizhi, the county magistrate, and I am here to thank the general for his help. , save tens of thousands of people in my city from danger!"

Lu Xiangsheng returned the salute and said: "Magistrate Fang is very polite. I am Lu Xiangsheng, the magistrate of the daimyo. Last year, I became slaves and invaded the bandits. The emperor issued an order to send troops from all over the world to King Qin. This is a major matter that concerns the country. Lu dare not stay out of it and disperse." Jiacai recruited tens of thousands of horses and entered Jingqin King. When he passed by Guixian County, he found that the Jiannu army was besieging the county. They were all Ziming from Ming Dynasty. He had to save them, so he led the army to kill them, and they were lucky to win."

Fang Yi was stunned: "The magistrate of the famous name?" I can't believe it, you are only a civil servant of the fifth or sixth rank, and you just need to manage the land of the house honestly. Who told you to recruit troops and buy horses to become the king of Jingqin?Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng's body was covered in blood, it was obvious that he had undergone an extremely brutal fight, so he couldn't help admiring him, and said: "Master Lu is a literati, and he is really loyal and loyal to doing military affairs. If all the officials of Ming Dynasty can be like Lu Xiangsheng Like my lord, Jiannuan can go all the way here!"

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Master Fang is too famous. The king humiliated his ministers to death, and Lu was just doing his own duty. On the contrary, Mr. Fang, when the army of founding slaves approached the city, he was not afraid of danger. For fulfilling the duty of a courtier, Lu admires it!"

Yang Menglong looked at the other with one eye, and called out depressedly: "I said, you two praise me and I praise you. When will you be tall? I'm starving to death! If you want me to say, you are all doing your duty. Do your best to be a good official, it's that simple!"

They obviously admired each other, but it was not the case at all when the boy said so. Both Lu Xiangsheng and Fang Yizhi were startled, and then laughed, and all the gentry flattered with all their might. Chao, choose what is nice to say, while flattering the two high officials, he also did not forget to flatter himself, and completely forgot his stingy and fearful ugly appearance during the siege of the slaves.Yang Menglong dozed off when he heard it, so he strode into the city with the few remaining servants and Yebushou, and when he saw the bloodstained soldiers in the brigade, he yelled loudly: "Little ones, I'm back! Seeing him, the soldiers and the villagers cheered loudly. They swarmed up and lifted him up and threw him up vigorously, caught him, and then threw him again. Even the common people joined the ranks of throwing people. His servant also enjoyed this treatment, and when he was thrown up and down, the lung-beating cheers almost demolished the county town.

Lu Xiang raised his gaze, just in time to see Yang Menglong waving his hands in the air, delighted, couldn't help smiling, and said, "He seems to be very popular."

Fang Yizhi said: "My lord doesn't know that the county can be defended entirely because of him. Without him, I'm afraid we would have become ghosts under Jiannu's knife!"

Lu Xiangsheng let out a cry, and then remembered that he didn't know Yang Menglong's name, so he asked, "What's the name of this little general? Which route is he leading?"

Fang Yizhi said: "His name is Yang Menglong, and he is leading the soldiers and horses of the Qianhu Office in Wuyang, Nanyang, Henan. The Nanyang capital also sent [-] soldiers to the king of Jingqin in two groups. One of them has turned back halfway due to lack of food and grass. This road has reached the county, and I didn't go any further..." Yang Menglong killed four cavalry in Xiaojiazhuang, led the villagers of Xiaojiazhuang to travel long distances to the county seat, wiped out Jiannu Youqi on the way, and Zhang Qianhu Lu Xiangsheng listened to a series of events such as fleeing and being beheaded, and Yang Menglong taking over the command. Lu Xiangsheng listened with gusto, and looked at Yang Menglong, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The killing sound gradually disappeared, and the cheers became louder and louder. The officials and servants in the county government danced and shouted: "We have won! We have won! Thousands of slaves and Tartars are all dead, long live !" This scream was like a flash of lightning, piercing through the haze of the sky, everyone in the county government office felt relieved, a big rock finally fell to the ground, grabbed the shouting Yamen servant and kept asking if it was true Yes, after getting confirmation, he also shouted.At this time, Qi Polu happened to smash the door and window with a table, and broke through the door with a saber in his hand. Hearing the cheers, he was immediately discouraged, and sat down on the ground, looking at the sky speechlessly.

Xiao Jun poked his head out of his sister's arms and called, "Sister, what are they shouting for?"

Xiao Yufang said with relief: "They are telling us to win."

Jun Xiao asked, "Did you really win?"

Xiao Yufang said: "Really!" Pointing to a few old men who were dancing, "Look, even they are cheering, it can't be fake."

Xiaojun shouted happily: "That's great, I don't have to be afraid of those Jian slaves at last!"

Qi Polu said viciously, "What a fart!"

Jun Xiao was puzzled: "Jianu is dead, why are you not happy at all?"

Qi Polu said: "Because I failed to kill them with my own hands, I am very unhappy! Boy, I am very annoyed now, don't mess with me, mess with me, you will feel better!"

It seemed that he was really annoyed. He said this so murderously that Xiaojun shrank his head in fright and dared not speak.Xiao Yufang smiled and patted her brother's head, then turned and walked into the room.The feeling of hunger hit her repeatedly, and she remembered that she hadn't eaten for a whole day, and she didn't feel hungry when she was worried, but now that she relaxed, she couldn't bear the hunger, so she lit a fire to cook.

Later, some yamen servants and young and strong carried dead horses into the city, skinned them, cleaned their internal organs, cut off large pieces of horse meat and distributed them door to door, saying that It is post-war compensation.There are more than 1000 people recorded in the three oxen of Houjin. According to the configuration of one man and two horses, there are also more than 2000 war horses, but they were beaten badly. Not to mention the people, even the horses did not survive. It took a lot of effort to gather around [-] uninjured horses. The others either ran away or died. Hundreds of dead horses were thrown on the battlefield. For the common people, this is a big meal. Lu Xiangsheng Keep some, and hand over the rest to Fang Yizhi, and let him distribute it to the people in the city. Every household can get several catties.The people who received the horse meat were naturally overjoyed. They cut off a piece and lit it to cook it. Ordinary people couldn’t come up with any decent seasoning. It was just boiled water with a little salt. As far as it is concerned, it is already a delicacy.Xiao Yufang also received a piece, cut it finely, put it in the pot to cook the soup, and simmered it over a low heat. After a while, wisps of attractive fragrance wafted out from the seam of the pot lid. This cooking skill is really unspeakable. .

At this time, Yang Menglong ran over recklessly and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Is the meal ready? I'm starving to death!"

Xiao Yufang, who was tasting the broth to see if there was enough salt, was startled by him, and almost spilled the broth.She hurriedly put down the spoon, patted her chest, and just as she was in shock, she called, "You...can you knock on the door before you come in? Do you want to scare me to death?"

Yang Menglong slapped his head: "I forgot, hehe." After taking a few steps, he knocked on the door a few times, making it up.

Xiao Yufang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and looked at him by the light of the fire, and saw that his clothes were clean and his hair was still wet, obviously he had just taken a shower, of course, this is not the point, the point is that his limbs and facial features are still sound, and there is no reason to be independent , I breathed a sigh of relief, a big stone in my heart fell to the ground completely."When did you come back?" she asked.

Yang Menglong threw a few sticks of firewood into the stove in the pile of firewood, and said, "I've been back for a while."

Xiao Yufang didn't believe it: "You've been back for a while? Why didn't I know?"

Yang Menglong chuckled: "I was covered in blood at the time. It was like taking a bath in a pool of blood. It stinks so badly that I could vomit people 20 meters away, so I had to take a bath first." Five Fingers: "It took me five buckets of water to wash my body, a total of five buckets of water! I washed my body with the first two buckets of water, and they all turned red, shit!"

Xiao Yufang exclaimed: "This... so much blood? Are you injured?"

Yang Menglong said: "I was punched a few times, kicked twice, and even fell. It's all trivial."

Xiao Yufang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good." Suddenly, she realized that she seemed to care too much about him, her cheeks turned red, and she really wanted to find a crack in the wall to sneak in.She lifted the lid of the other pot, a gust of white hot air rushed out, and a pretty face became faint in the steam, hiding her shyness.Just as Yang Menglong was about to speak, Xiao Yufang took out an egg from the pot: "You must be very hungry after fighting all day, so let's eat an egg to pad your stomach first."

Yang Menglong was not very satisfied: "Just one?"

Xiao Yufang said, "It's not bad to have one."

Yang Menglong sighed: "It's better than nothing." He cracked open the shell of the egg, peeled off the shell, gobbled it up, and muttered while eating: "Why didn't I find that boiled eggs are so delicious before? Wait until I settle down." After I come down, I will definitely set up a large-scale chicken farm, raise tens of thousands of hens, and pick up tens of thousands of eggs every day. If you like boiled eggs, you can boil them. If you like steamed eggs, you can steam them. !"

Raise tens of thousands of hens?What a great deal!

Xiao Yufang pursed her lips, and a secret smile quietly bloomed between her delicate and beautiful lips like rose petals.No way, seeing him eating like a piglet, she couldn't help laughing.This guy is gone. Others have one or two children at this age, and he is still like a child. There is really nothing to do with him.

However, in her opinion, Yang Menglong who looks like a child is very cute, at least cuter than those sour scholars who only know how to read books all day long...
