Regret Records of Cultivating a Tyrant

On the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month in the 83rd year of the lunar calendar, in the northern border, a small courtyard in Zhige City.

The charcoal fire in the basin was still red, and there was a smoky smell in the room, which was very choking.

Jiang Yu leaned against the bed and coughed a few times. The wound on the side of his waist was painfully torn by these coughs, and there was light red oozing.

Jiang Yu frowned in pain, picked up the letter in his hand and read it carefully several times, with a slightly dignified expression.

The letter Lin Shicheng wrote to him stated the recent income and expenditure of the Ministry of Households, and it was only a rough outline, but through these, it can be seen that the current Jiang Dynasty is beyond gold and jade, and it is in ruins.

This year's military salary can be paid on the tenth day of the lunar new year, which is a great favor.

Jiang Yu now holds the rank of lieutenant, and he leads a regiment with 200 people under his command.

In the past two years, there have been more than a dozen frictions with the barbarians. Some brothers were seriously injured. Although they were rescued, they were disabled and could only return to logistics work.

However, the subsidy that should be given to these soldiers has never been implemented. Now that the end of the new year is approaching, the military salary is still postponed.

Although Jiang Yu was looking forward to Emperor Yuan'an's omissions in governance and giving him a chance to be in power, but after he untied his knot with Shi Qing in this life, he had other desires and concerns in his heart.

He began to learn to really think for others, for this country, and once again stood on the battlefield in the northern border, he finally became a person with flesh and blood, not a machine that calculated the world for revenge.

"Lieutenant Han, are you there?" There was a knock on the wooden door, and a soft female voice tried to raise her voice to ask.

"Yes." Jiang Yu regained his senses, and pressed the letter under the pillow, "Come in."

The door was pushed open carefully, and in order not to let in the wind, only one person's space was left.

The little girl nimbly got into the door, holding a bunch of things in her arms, and a bamboo basket on her arm, covered with a layer of floral cloth.

She moved a chair and sat beside Jiang Yu's bed, put the basket on the ground, opened the brown oil paper on her hands like a treasure, and held it in front of Jiang Yu's eyes, "Dangdang~"

She smiled brightly, "Freshly baked big buns from the Li family ~ Captain Han, do you want to try it?"

Jiang Yu was amused by her innocent look, and nodded, "Of course I want to eat."

She is Li San's younger sister, Li Yan. Since she was ten years old, she has helped her mother, who lost her husband in the early years, run the Li's steamed stuffed bun shop in Zhige City. She just turned 15 this year and is exactly the age of flowers. Jiang Yu.

"My brother is still busy in the military camp, so I can't come to see you. I apologize to you on his behalf." Li Yan tore off a piece of oil paper, wrapped the bun and handed it to Jiang Yu, still holding the bun in his hand, looking at Jiang with a smile Yu eats.

"There's nothing to apologize for." Jiang Yu smiled and didn't care.

"Your injury was done for my brother. From now on, you will be our Li family's great benefactor, so of course you have to be careful~" Li Yan stuck out her tongue at him as if joking.

When Li San and Wang Wu carried Jiang Yu back half-stained with blood, their eyes were red, they yelled and entered the door, and then invited the doctor in, and even knelt down to the doctor, asking the old man to save Jiang Yu, as long as He is willing to pay any price to save him.

Li Yan had never seen his brother like this before, so he followed Jiang Yu for a few more glances, but he couldn't move his eyes away.

She has lived in Zhige City since she was a child, where it is cold and dry all the year round, and it is rare to find a handsome young man like Jiang Yu in the local area. Suddenly, her heart jumped up and down, as if she fell in love with Jiang Yu at first sight.

In addition, Li San always mentioned Jiang Yu, who joined the army at the age of 17 (Jiang Yu's fake military status was 17), became a captain in one year, was promoted to brigade commander in one and a half years, and was promoted to school in two and a half years. Wei, not only has a good appearance, but also has a strong commanding ability on the battlefield. He is even more majestic when killing barbarians. He should be a role model for the good sons of the Jiang Dynasty.

This time Jiang Yu was injured, Li Yan volunteered to take care of Jiang Yu, but she also admired him a lot.

"Is it delicious?" Li Yan opened her round eyes and said to Jiang Yu, "This is my aunt's new wild vegetable and egg stuffed buns. I'll bring it to you as soon as it's out of the pot."

Jiang Yu has never been a picky eater. He chewed the steamed stuffed bun slowly, nodded and smiled, "Aunt Li's stuffed stuffed buns are delicious."

"Hey, my mother loves to hear you say that!"

The little girl has a natural smile and likes to talk very much. With her, the dry and cold room filled with the pungent smell of fireworks has become a lot warmer.

Li Yan lifted the floral cloth on the basket, revealing that it was full of red dates, rice, nuts, chestnuts, peanuts, and asked Jiang Yu, "Han Xiaowei, tomorrow is the Laba Festival, and I want to make Laba porridge for you tomorrow morning." , can I stay with you tonight?"

Jiang Yu was a little surprised when he saw the basket full of good things, but when he heard what Li Yan said, he didn't react for a while.

In winter, the northern border is not rich, and Zhige City's military food reserves are not large, let alone the situation of the people in the city who support the army throughout the year.

He couldn't imagine how the basket of grains and fruits brought by Li Yan was assembled.

"Lieutenant Han?" Asked again, Li Yan's face turned a little red, for fear that Jiang Yu would discover his other thoughts.

"This is the only room I have here that is fairly warm." Jiang Yu looked a little embarrassed, "It would be inconvenient for you to live here as a girl."

"It's okay, it's okay, I will bring my own quilt!" Li Yan quickly waved her hands, "I will sleep in the room next door, and I will make the brazier myself!"

She just wanted to get closer to Jiang Yu and spend more time with him.

Because she knew that Jiang Yu was from Yong'an, there was no family here, and he would definitely feel lonely when the festival was approaching, so she wanted to hide and be with him.

Seeing that he couldn't shirk, Jiang Yu had no choice but to agree.

Li San came once in the evening, grabbed Li Yan by the back of her neck, and insisted on taking him away. Li Yan resisted wildly and refused to leave after being beaten to death.

After dinner, Jiang Yu was afraid that Li Yan would be cold, so he asked Li Yan to light a charcoal fire in the next room first, then come to his room to peel chestnuts and peanuts, and then go back to sleep.

The light in the room was too dark, Jiang Yu couldn't read any more and had nothing else to do, so he lay down by the bed and watched Li Yan do things silently.

Li Yan's face turned red from his stare, so she quickly started talking, and asked insincerely, "Did Han Xiaowei have a sweetheart in Yong'an before he came to the northern border?"

Jiang Yu froze for a moment, Han Shiqing's face appeared in his mind, with a smile on his lips, he replied, "Yes."

Li Yan's heart skipped a beat, as if she heard the sound of her own heart breaking.

But thinking about it, Han Xiaowei is so good-looking and talented, how could there be no one who falls in love with him?

It's just that this piece of sincerity has confuse people, so I can only take it back.

Hey……

Li Yan was always cheerful, she regretted it in her heart, it was over, and then she felt curious.

"Can I ask what kind of person that is?" she asked.

After asking her question, Jiang Yu paused for a long time, and then spoke slowly after thinking about it.

"He is the person who understands me best."

Under the dim light, Jiang Yu's face was soft and friendly, and his voice was softer than anything Li Yan had ever heard before.

Breathing slightly stagnated, Li Yan suddenly envied the woman whom Han Xiaowei liked.

"Then you serve as a soldier in the northern border, so will she wait for you in Yong'an City?"

"Well, he said he'd wait for me."

"Then..." Li Yan pursed her lips, trying to make herself laugh, "When you return to Yong'an, you must be with that person and live happily ever after!"

"En." Jiang Yu saw her thoughts, stretched out his palms under the quilt, rubbed the top of Li Yan's hair, and said, "It will definitely."

Jiang Yu was seriously injured this time, his left waist was pierced, but fortunately he didn't hurt any internal organs, so he managed to save his life.

But it will take another month to fully raise it, and during this period until any day of the Shangyuan Festival, the barbarians may attack the northern border on a large scale.

In the previous life, they were caught off guard by beating Zhige City. In this life, the scouting team of the dynasty still had no news about the barbarians marching at this time, which made Jiang Yu very disturbed.

It's not the right time for him to get hurt. If he takes a wrong step now, he may end up with the same ending as in his previous life, or maybe it will be even worse.

When sitting around eating Laba porridge with the Li family, Jiang Yu proposed to let the Li family move out of Zhige City, and the bun shop was temporarily closed, and went to Lincheng to live for a while.

Among his brothers, Li San's family is from Zhige City, and they always bring them food and drink, and open small stoves.

The barbarians are keen on massacring cities, and they are brutal and bloodthirsty by nature. He is afraid that if Zhige City cannot be defended, Li San's family will really be buried here.

"Why?" Li Yan didn't understand, "You are all guarding the city here, why are we running?"

"Just say hide for a while."

Aunt Li smiled, but instead comforted Jiang Yu, "Lieutenant Han, our family has been living in Zhige City, and the barbarians have attacked many times over the years, and we haven't seen anyone who can break through the city gate. You are here, we don’t worry, don’t run away!”

"But, it's different this time." Jiang Yu sighed inwardly, and had no choice but to persuade him again.

"Lieutenant Han." Li San had known him for three years, and knowing that he acted like this showed that things were definitely not simple.

"Did you figure something out?"

At the time in the Shuangbi Canyon, Li San was convinced of Jiang Yu, and believed that Jiang Yu definitely had the ability to make calculations, and now he also believes in him.

Seeing Jiang Yu nodding his head, Li San immediately made a decision to let the whole family relocate and leave Zhige City temporarily. If there is no accident, he will come back, and if there is an accident, he will hide in Lincheng to keep safe.

He was the only man in the family, so Aunt Li naturally listened to him.

So the matter was finalized like this, and Jiang Yu was also relieved.

On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Jiang Yu sent a letter to Lin Shicheng and Liao Yunfan, telling them to ask Xuanjinlou's killer to pack their bags and come to the northern border immediately, and also notified Shi Qing and Han Jingyu to prepare for support.

The sky in the north is about to change.
