From mentioning AK47 to farming in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 133 Are your legs numb?
If it wasn't for the long journey to Xingtang, Zhao Tai really wanted to see the bustling scene.

At this time, Xingtang County has long been in a busy state, and boats are constantly coming and going on the wide river. Every time they go there and come back, the boats are full.

Either sheep, or money and food, and the Wuhuan captives who came with them acted as coolies on both sides of the bank.

The horses and cattle were driven to cross the river elsewhere, and then they were put into storage and driven to the built livestock pen.

Successive good news put Zhao Tai in a very good mood. When others fight a war, it would cost a lot of manpower and material resources, and they might not be able to win.

Going to fight with him is like buying goods, but maybe this is the only time this happens, after all, you are taking things in someone else's territory, so it is not a loss no matter what.

He is happy on one side, but Liu Yu on the other side is turning blue with anger. Although Zhao Tai has already done most of the things he promised, during this period, he also actively formed an army with Zhao Tai's Dongfeng, hoping to have an early victory. own armed forces.

But no matter how hard he tried to recruit soldiers, the number of troops was only over ten thousand, and they were still soldiers who had not been trained much, and their combat effectiveness was extremely limited.

For a state, [-] troops are far from enough, and even [-] are not enough.

But he had no money and no food. Looking at Yuyang County where the people's livelihood was getting worse, Liu Yu didn't know whether the borrowing of troops was good or bad.

The site has been taken back, but the site has become a veritable mess, and it will never recover in a few years.

At this moment, he really wanted to have an elite and strong army like Zhao Tai, as well as that kind of explosives that were invincible.

Coupled with his status as an imperial clan, and his friendship with the aristocratic family, it won't take long for the entire Youzhou to become extremely powerful.

But these can only be thought about, the most important thing at the moment is to clean up the mess in Youzhou. The military and government have great power, but the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. In this situation, he can't wait to divide the money into two halves.

"Zhou Mu, at present, Han Yu has received the order of the prefect Zhao to withdraw his troops, and we can only rely on ourselves. The subordinates ask for orders to lead troops to fight against Zhang Chun. With the help of the two generals, Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin, Zhang Chun has nothing to worry about. "

As a member of Liu Yu's team, Tian Chou offered to take over a heavy responsibility at this time.

In fact, Tian Chou doesn't think it is urgent to destroy Zhang Chun now. More important than this is to sort out the affairs of Youzhou and focus on restoring people's livelihood.

But you can't look at things on the surface. Zhao Tai's sudden withdrawal gave him a bad feeling, and he couldn't guess what it was.

He vaguely felt that something big might happen in this world, and it was caused by Zhao Tai.

The withdrawal of troops is a signal, so no matter what, before things happen, it is the most important thing to do to solve the hidden dangers in Youzhou.

Otherwise, with such a hidden danger at your side, no one knows when something will happen.

In his heart, Liu Yu didn't really want to fight Zhang Chun now, because he was already powerless to fight the war.

When he was about to refuse, Tian Chou's words put him in a dilemma.

"The state shepherd should not hesitate. Although the restoration of people's livelihood is the most important thing right now, the state shepherd can think carefully why Zhao Tai wants to withdraw at this time. It must be because of some major internal affairs in Zhao Tai that made him have to withdraw the army.

From the perspective of the subordinates, Zhao Tai's actions can't be shaken by anything internally, so it can only be an external event, and we have to guard against it. It is necessary to maintain a stable environment without external enemies. "

In other words, Tian Chou felt that Zhao Tai was going to make trouble again, which would be bigger than occupying Changshan County.

Maybe it is to send troops abroad. If this is the case, then Youzhou will definitely become the first. After all, it is not an exaggeration to talk about internal and external troubles in Youzhou now.

"How long has he been silent, and the imperial court has appointed him as the governor of Changshan County, and even borrowed troops to the state to fight the rebellion..."

As he was talking, Liu Yu couldn't go on talking. Borrowing soldiers sounds good, but in fact it was not for him to borrow soldiers. They were playing the banner of attacking foreign rebellions.

What's more, he had to eat what Naka wanted all the way, so why did he ever pay attention to his state shepherd.

The court appointed an official?Zhao Tai never responded.

He never forgot how Zhao Tai started his career, and how he became the sheriff.

In his eyes, when has there been imperial power and a court.

He changed any system if he wanted to, and when did he ask the court for instructions.

Iron ore was dug as soon as it was dug, smelted as soon as it was smelted, and sold as iron farm tools. The imperial system had never played a half role in him.

Others will honestly come down to his letter after being appointed as an official, but Zhao Tai is the only one here, even if he proclaims himself emperor now, he will not be surprised.

"Zitai, then Zhao Ding'an is capricious, and I don't know about his wolf ambitions. The key is that we really can't afford this battle. It's better to station troops in Lu County to reject Zhang Chun. Only in this way can Youzhou have a breathing space. Continuing to harvest grain will only drag Youzhou into a dead end."

Liu Yu knew this truth, but how could Tian Chou not know it? He insisted on fighting because he was afraid of Zhao Tai, so he was not a person who could be estimated according to common sense.

"My subordinates agree with Zhou Mu's words. At the moment, the restoration of people's livelihood should be the main priority. It will not be too late to deal with Zhang Chun when the army's fine food is sufficient. If it is delayed, even the spring plowing will be delayed."

"The subordinates seconded the proposal."

"I will second the state pastor's words."

With Liu Yu's status and position, he doesn't have to worry about being available, and the family's goodwill towards him is still very strong.

As far as the team is concerned, Zhao Tai is not comparable.

People like Wei You, Cheng Xu, Wei Dun, and Zhao Gai all have outstanding abilities, otherwise they would not have been appointed by Liu Yu as officials at various positions. This is the result of good friends with the family.

They can see clearly how the current situation is, and Youzhou can no longer stand the toss.

Tian Chou didn't speak, it was a tacit agreement.

Thinking of what he saw and heard in Changshan County, and the invincible explosives and army, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness every day when he thought about it.

It would be great if such a character could be used by a big man without dissent.

It's not that his move made people tremble with fear.

The situation in Youzhou settled down, Zhang Chun was the happiest, he laughed for several minutes after hearing the news of Han Yu's withdrawal.

Liu Yu stationed troops on guard against him, and he couldn't even care about it, he just wanted to drink for three days and three nights to calm down the shock.

During the period when Han Yu led the troops, outsiders didn't know how he lived.

He couldn't sleep well, eat well, and every explosion would make his body tremble, for fear that some explosives would fall beside him.

Not to mention the person lost weight, the dark circles under his eyes were still sunken, as if he had suffered from a serious illness.

The physical changes are secondary, but the key is that I can't stand it psychologically. It feels like I live every day just to wait for death.

Is that a war?It was being fought, and the enemy spent more time traveling than fighting. During this period of time, he thought about running away or committing suicide.

Fortunately, all the hardships come with rewards. Although he lost a county, he and his subordinates are as happy as a state. Outsiders can't understand that kind of happy feeling.

Some people are happy while others are sad, or whether they are having fun while suffering, it has nothing to do with Zhao Tai. Since the booty was transported to Changshan, he has never been idle.

Moreover, the tables and chairs he asked to build had arrived, and they were neatly placed in the meeting hall of the government office.

He stood at the head and looked at the subordinates standing on both sides below, everyone's expression had an inexplicable meaning.

"sit."

The table is a long desk, and Zhao Tai still maintains the habit of one table for each person, which is very humane.

But this situation made everyone a little unacceptable, sit?sit there?

"Prefect, where are the officials sitting?"

The conflict between Jin Jie and Zhao Tai became more and more serious, and Zhao Tai could feel that they were getting tougher, and they didn't seem to be so active in doing things.

Zhao Tai had shown positive behavior before but remained indifferent, as if throwing winking eyes at the blind, they simply didn't bother to show it anymore, and even consciously made government affairs go wrong.

Zhao Tai took all these seriously, and had no intention of releasing his goodwill except for the corresponding punishment.

A lot of maliciousness has been released, and the situation is already deteriorating.

"This officer calls this a table, and this is a chair. Isn't it ready?"

Zhao Tai sat down first, and Qi Zhou and Xia Houlan also sat down one after another, as if they were giving them a demonstration.

For such a trivial matter, Jin Jie and his subordinates blushed with anger, as if they had been humiliated.

As I said before, when the pants of the Han Dynasty sit on a stool, the door will open wide, and the soles of the feet touch the ground.

How could they be happy.

"Such an unethical sitting posture, I am sorry that my subordinates dare not sit, and cannot sit."

It's okay to sit down, not to mention the soles of the feet touching the ground, but what it looks like when the middle door is wide open.

A good meeting room has become a place that compares its size?

"Stand if you don't sit, even the officials in Changshan County will use this method for office work in the future, and promote the whole county to change the etiquette of kneeling and sitting."

"It's absurd. How can etiquette be neglected? This is disrespectful to the sages and getting along with others. The next official remonstrates and hopes that the prefect will take it back."

If you want to talk about it, I don’t know where the kneeling ritual can be dragged, but the kneeling ceremony was practiced in several dynasties, so it’s okay to say that it’s disrespectful to the sages.

But the times will change, of course it is how you feel comfortable, Zhao Tai will not stick to the so-called rules and etiquette, what should be eliminated must be eliminated.

"Etiquette cannot be discarded? Master Qi, is this chair convenient and comfortable to sit on?"

"My lord, it is very convenient and comfortable."

"What do Jue Cao Shi think?"

"My lord, this chair is a bit hard and uncomfortable after sitting for a long time. I suggest adding some cushions. The other subordinates think it's fine."

Zhao Tai glared at him, you have learned to improve.

"Everyone heard, this chair is comfortable to sit on. Don't your legs feel numb and stiff after sitting on your knees for a long time?"

Jin Jie and the others looked at Zhao Tai in disbelief.

We are talking about the indispensability of etiquette, but you tell me if your legs will go numb after sitting on your knees for a long time?
Do these two things go hand in hand?
