And Gu Tianya galloped all the way with ten soldiers, and finally arrived at the destination after half an hour. There was a small post station standing alone beside the official road. Since it was already evening, the postmen of the post station were about to close the door. .

But when the postman saw Gu Tianya and the others, especially the women's army armor that everyone was wearing, the postman burst out in ecstasy, yelling at the posthouse, "Brother...Brother, come quickly!" , is the same robe, the same robe who came to change..."

Hurala!

In the blink of an eye, a group of people rushed out.

The post station is worthy of being a military unit, and the people inside respond quickly.

It's a pity that there were also ten soldiers, but the faces of these ten soldiers were disheveled.

Gu Tianya's face suddenly darkened.

He looked straight at the leader of the ten postmen, and was about to get angry and yell at him, but the pupils in his eyes shrank suddenly, and his words suddenly became gentle when he spoke, and asked slowly: "What's going on? You're trembling with hunger? The other nine people are just disheveled, and you, a postmaster at the same level as the county magistrate, are so hungry that you can't stand still..."

He paused for a while while talking, and then his tone became cold and stern, and he suddenly let out a thunderous rage and roared, "Tell me, why is this happening? Although the Detachment of Women's Army is poor, there is never a shortage of food that should be distributed. Especially in the various post stations in the army, food is distributed every month, why, why do you not have enough to eat?"

All the ten soldiers on the opposite side were dumbfounded by this thunderbolt and thunder.

They didn't know that it was Gu Tianya who came to change their station, they just thought it was another post chief of the same level, so they were all a little puzzled, this fellow's temper must be a little too big.

Fortunately, Gu Tianya was still with his entourage, and a soldier hurriedly asked for his identity and said loudly, "This is Chief Yi, the husband of our princess..."

Postmaster Gu?

The princess' husband?

The ten postmen on the opposite side were stunned for a moment, and then they felt a loud noise in their heads.

Of the 20 women in the Women's Army, who has never heard of Gu Tianya's name.

All of a sudden, there was a loud noise, and ten soldiers knelt down on one knee, with the grievance of a child seeing a parent appearing on their faces, and whined: "Commander, we are suffering!"

Ten men in the army would not even frown on the battlefield, but at this moment, everyone was in tears, and the grievance on their faces made people feel distressed.

All of a sudden, there was a loud noise, and ten soldiers knelt down on one knee, with the grievance of a child seeing a parent appearing on their faces, and whined: "Commander, we are suffering!"

This is definitely bullying.

But who dares to bully the soldiers of the Detachment of Women in Hebei?

Family?

wrong!

In order to show favor to him, the aristocratic family has already abandoned Hebei Dao, and it is said that they have made a covenant that no aristocratic family is allowed to touch the interests of Hebei Dao.

So, who else dares?

Gu Tianya's face suddenly became gloomy and cold, he thought of a force that was supposed to never do such a thing.

Tiance Mansion.

Chapter 127 [Ancient Hearts Are Cruel]

It is indeed the Tiance Mansion who is doing something.

But the Tiance Mansion is not the only one who is causing trouble.

……

A moment later, in the post station, there were brothers in the same robe, and there were 20 people in total between the new residents and the original residents.

Except for these 20 people, there is not even a cook who cooks. There is only one stove in the whole station, and a large pot for 30 people is supported on the stove.

Because it was evening at this time, and it was the time to eat dinner in a day, so there was just a meal in the cauldron, but unfortunately it was just a pot of porridge with clear soup and little water.

The color is green and oily, and it looks like wild vegetable soup.

Bang!

The lid of the pot was smashed heavily on the stove.

Gu Tianya's complexion was a little ugly, he turned suddenly to look at the ten soldiers, and said, "Take out all the dry food you carry with you, and get the dried meat on the horses as well."

The ten soldiers didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly turned and walked out of the station.

After a short time, he walked in with a dozen bags on his shoulders, ten of which were pancakes, and the other two were full of dried meat.

With a bang, ten bags of pancakes were still on the table.

As for the two bags of jerky, they were carried by a post soldier with both hands. The soldier looked a little hesitant, and said in a low voice, "These jerky are specially prepared for you by the princess..."

Gu Tianya glared at him and said angrily: "Everyone is brothers in the army, why should I eat meat alone? Take it out and share it with them."

The soldier had no choice but to open one of the pockets, with a very reluctant face on his face, he dragged out ten pieces of dried meat, and said: "The ten of us can only eat pancakes, and the ten brothers in Wuyangyi can eat meat. "

The ten postmen on the opposite side quickly got up, shook their heads together and said: "We don't eat meat either, this is the meat that the princess gave to the commander-in-chief."

Gu Tianya was 'furious', rushed over and kicked one of them, scolding: "Whoever dares to blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah."

Seeing that he was angry, all the soldiers were obedient, so each of them picked up a piece of dried meat, and started to bite hungrily.

A piece of meat, more than half a catty.

This is real air-dried meat, which Zhaoning specially prepared for Gu Tianya.

After chewing and swallowing, it is worth two or three catties of grain.

The ten soldiers of Wuyang Station were hungry for too long, and their neck muscles bulged and bulged when they choked on meat. Gu Tianya was afraid that they would choke to death, so he hurriedly asked people to put soup in a large pot, and the ten soldiers of Wuyang Station served vegetables. Tang Meng made and ate another twenty or thirty pancakes in a blink of an eye.

As for the ten postmen in Gujia Village, they were full after eating only four or five pancakes.

It wasn't until this moment that Gu Tianya suppressed his anger, and asked with dark eyes: "Tell me, why are you so hungry? What about the soldiers sent to you by the Detachment of Women? What about the food distributed to you every half a month? "

But seeing the postmaster of Wuyang Station standing up, he wiped the corners of his eyes before saying a word, and then said awkwardly: "Marshal, blame me, I have no ability, let ten brothers suffer along with me."

"What I'm asking is where did your food go?" Gu Tianya shouted violently, as if his anger was rising again.

He suddenly took two steps forward, kicked down hard, and cursed: "As a postman of the Detachment of Women, you are trembling with hunger. How can you guard the post? How can you protect one side? Look up and look at my The eyes speak back..."

It's a pity that Wuyang postmaster bowed his head in shame.

On the contrary, it was a postman who was aggrieved and uncomfortable, and finally spoke loudly from the side, saying: "Marshal, our postmaster is not wrong. He is the most hungry and suffers the most pressure. You asked where the food went? We Giving food to the people..."

The pawn's chest stood tall.

His face was full of pride, and he said loudly: "Right now, there are starving people everywhere. They know that there is food in the station, so they kneel at the door and beg for help. Commander, didn't you build the station to protect the people? We Obey your commander-in-chief and give all the food to the people. We did not embarrass the Detachment of Women."

After these words were spoken, the ten post soldiers in Gujia Village were full of respect, but Gu Tianya laughed angrily, and suddenly kicked the soldier to the ground.

Everyone was puzzled, but no one dared to refuse. They just said with aggrieved faces: "Marshal, we really didn't embarrass the Detachment of Women."

Gu Tianya gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "It's true that you didn't embarrass the Detachment of Women, but both of you are idiots."

After he finished cursing, he suddenly sighed, bent down and pulled up the postman himself, and then he also pulled up the Wuyang postmaster who had been kicked to the ground.

He looked at the ten soldiers in Wuyang Station, and said instructively: "Do you know the steps of the court to relieve the famine? I don't know, let me tell you. The first officer, the second soldier, the first Men, women and children, let the strong men eat first, and then take care of the old and the weak... If the officials and soldiers are not full, even if they see the people starving, they can't save them. This is not cruel, but it has been passed down for thousands of years If you don’t do this, more people will die. It is likely not to starve to death, but to die unjustly and worthlessly.”

The soldiers present were in a daze.

Gu Tianya snorted, and said with a look of resentment: "If the official starves to death, who will organize the soldiers to rescue the disaster? If the soldiers can't eat enough, how can they have the strength to deter one side? The more famine, the easier it is Breeding bandits, then let me ask you now, if someone robs when he is hungry and crazy, do you care about it after seeing it? If someone is hungry and loses his humanity and wants to cook children, do you care about it after seeing it?"

Wuyang postmaster didn't even think about it, and blurted out: "We must take care of it and never let this kind of thing happen."

Gu Tianya stepped forward and kicked again, yelling and cursing: "Do you have the strength to fight? Can you still hold a knife? You were so hungry just now that you couldn't stand upright by yourself."

Wuyang postmaster immediately stood on the spot in a daze.

He finally understood where he was wrong...

Up to this moment, Gu Tianya seemed to have exhausted all his anger. He stretched out his hand to pull the postmaster Wuyang up again, and said earnestly: "It's not because I'm cruel, I don't want the people to starve to death, I'm the one who is handsome." , You don’t even understand the priorities. You gave food to the people, and you can indeed save some people alive, but you yourself are starving, and you will kill more people.”

Wuyang postmaster knelt down with a plop, and suddenly hugged his thigh and cried loudly, "Marshal, someone is really cooking a child. I saw it once, and the child's eyes couldn't close. He looked like He was looking at me, he was asking why I didn't save him!"

He was crying tears, his face was full of self-blame and remorse, and he kept saying: "Marshal, I deserve to die, I really deserve to die, I was really hungry and powerless at that time, and I couldn't stop those offal that cooked children , if I could save a little food for myself, I would have the strength to save that child from being boiled, but damn, I didn’t keep any food for myself..."

Gu Tianya gritted his teeth, trying not to let himself hear about it.

With his hands behind his back, he suddenly looked outside, and said in a deep voice, "There are less than a thousand households in the whole Wuyang County. Allocating a little grain to Hebei can't help all the people, but it can guarantee that five or six hundred households will not die of hunger. In addition, there is a rich family in the county, which can feed more than 100 households, and there are other county government offices, which can also help some. Therefore, there are only a few dozen households of refugees in Wuyang County every year."

He stopped here for a while, his eyes flashed coldly, and he said: "But this year, it is obviously different. It is obvious that there are definitely more than a few dozen families of refugees in this area, so this matter will be resolved." It is worth pondering, where did these extra refugees come from?"

Wuyang postmaster wiped away tears, gritted his teeth and said, "South."

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Gu Tianya, tears rolling down his face and said: "Those refugees fleeing famine were driven from the south."

A murderous look flashed across Gu Tianya's face, and he said, "Sure enough, it was the work of Tiance Mansion, I just don't know which Zhechong Mansion is so courageous."

He took a few steps slowly and stood at the gate of the post with his hands behind his back.

He looked at the south side of Wuyang Station with a carefree gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Our Tang Dynasty has a military system, and there are Zhechong Mansions in every place. The government soldiers, and the Tiance Mansion is located in the Central Plains, with powers covering four areas and one Luo, they own Zhechong Mansion 320 and four, which is very different from the military strategy of our Women's Army..."

All the soldiers present are familiar with these military establishments.

The Tang Dynasty was a government military system, so there were not many standing troops. Although Li Shimin's Tiance Mansion claimed to have an army of 20, in fact there were only more than 3 real professional soldiers, and the rest were all government soldiers.

The soldiers of the government are under the jurisdiction of the Zhechong government on weekdays.

The military strategy of the Women's Army is slightly different. There are very few Zhechong mansions in Hebei, because Zhaoning likes to raise soldiers, and she doesn't want ordinary people to serve as soldiers for free, so the Women's Army is poor and miserable, because there are more than 20 people in the 8 army They are all professional soldiers.

The remaining more than [-] people are not the kind of self-sufficient government soldiers. They also have soldiers, so the Women's Army calls itself a line.

They were raised by Zhaoning, so they are naturally loyal to Zhaoning.

At this time, Wuyang postmaster seemed to think of something, and suddenly said: "There are still some refugees who seem to have come from the west, and a Zhechong Mansion has just been built there, but these refugees are not driven out. On the contrary, it seems to be to avoid disaster, not someone deliberately did it."

Gu Tianya immediately sneered and asked, "How many refugees are there in the west?"

Wuyang postmaster thought for a while, stretched out three fingers and said: "There must be about three hundred households, all of whom look like they are leading the family."

"That's leaving home. It belongs to leaving with the whole family. It's really not being forced by others, but because I want to avoid disaster..."

"Yeah, it doesn't look like they're being pushed."

"So how many refugees are there from the south?"

"There are a lot of people over there. There are 3000 people, and they are all old and young, women and children. It is rare to see strong men and men."

"Hmph, the men are soldiers, and I'm afraid they've all been conscripted into government soldiers."

"Marshal, is there something to say here?"

Gu Tianya sneered again, nodded and said: "It's not just a statement, someone is messing around."

Chapter 128 [Those who want to achieve great things, close relatives can also be killed]

I Have a Backstage in the Tang Dynasty Chapter 128 of the main text volume [Those who want to achieve great things can kill their close relatives] The night breeze is cool and blows slowly.

Gu Tianya continued to hold his hands behind his back, looking outside, and said: "The refugees from the west came here spontaneously. Obviously, the people in the west have been abiding by the rules, while the refugees from the south were driven over. This is the real way to shake off women and children." Feed us."

He sneered twice, and said coldly: "The soldiers are recruited by them, and the small family and difficulties are thrown to Hebei Road. The trick is really good, but it's a little bit unconscionable..."

The postmaster of Wuyang hesitated for a moment, then cautiously asked: "Marshal, do you mean the aristocratic family by the people who abide by the rules in the west?"

He paused for a while while talking, and then said cautiously again: "Wuyang County is located in the southernmost part of Hebei, just bordering two Taoist prefectures. To the south is Henan Road, and to the west is Hedong Road, so Henan Road to the south It belongs to the Tiance Mansion, and the Hedong Province to the west is under the control of Gyeonggi Province, and the power of Gyeonggi Province is in the hands of the Prince's Mansion, to be precise, in the hands of the aristocratic family."

Gu Tianya glanced at him and said approvingly: "No wonder you can serve as the postmaster. You really have more knowledge than ordinary soldiers."

The postmaster Wuyang swallowed, and said in a low voice: "I heard that you and the aristocratic family did not get along, why did the aristocratic family abide by the rules? The Tiance Mansion has always been on good terms with our Women's Army, why is it that they are playing tricks this time..."

Gu Tianya suddenly sighed.

He walked out of the gate of the post station slowly, stood at the gate and looked into the distance.

After a long time, he said softly: "Yeah, this time the aristocratic family actually obeyed the rules. They want to buy more secret recipes from me, so they directly abandon the interests of Hebei Dao, although this is just a show Okay, but people have always followed it very well."

"On the contrary, some people in Tiance Mansion always think that Zhaoning and I are soft persimmons that can be squeezed at will..."

Twenty postmen went out together, stood behind him, gritted their teeth, and said angrily: "Marshal, you give the order. Even if there are only twenty of us, we must go to Zhechong Mansion in Tiance Mansion to make a fuss."

Unexpectedly, Gu Tianya smiled suddenly, waved his hands as if he was not angry, and said slowly: "We are a family, how can we shout and kill? Don't mention this matter again, let's pretend it never happened. "

The twenty soldiers were stunned for a moment.

They couldn't figure out why Gu Tianya wasn't angry all of a sudden.

Not long ago, when they saw Gu Tianya jumping into a rage, he was not angry at them, but at the Tiance Mansion in the south.

As a result, in just a blink of an eye, the commander-in-chief was no longer angry with a smile on his face.

Very weird!

But seeing Gu Tianya turned his head to look at them, he suddenly waved to the ten postmen at Wuyang Station, and said softly: "According to the rules set by Zhaoning and I, postmen change stations every six months, now I and Ten soldiers have arrived, and you are already in the situation of resigning, but it is already evening, and it is not kind to let you hurry, so let's start tomorrow..."
