The devil is coming

Chapter 903 Master
"Here, here, and there, are these granaries sealed?"
"It's all sealed, don't worry, I'll be sleeping here these days."
"You are in charge of the granary. I feel relieved, and so does the commander-in-chief." Xu An said to Guo Dong.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Guo Dong laughed,
road;
"Don't worry, the hands and feet of these people below are very clean. The people responsible for looking after the granary are all standard households. In order to save some food, they have to destroy their own iron crops. This is not cost-effective. They will take care of this account. Calculated.
Besides, everyone knows that the current grain reserves will be put to great use when the prince goes to war in a few years. The people below all know the pros and cons. "
The guard on the granary side is called Guo Dong.
The person has no ears, which looks very uncoordinated;
There are also two words carved on his face... "Yan Dog".
Logically speaking, a mutilated and engraved person should live a very decadent life, which is even unacceptable in the current world that pays attention to body, hair and skin. However, Guo Dong is extremely popular in this area.
No one would despise his disability, and no one would dare to make fun of the word "Yan Dog" on his face;
Because everyone knows,
This character was carved by Nian Yao, the great general of Chu State;
There is a rumor among the soldiers here in the barn that their prince was furious because he saw these two words on the face of his guard, and captured the Chu State General Nian Yao alive, and retaliated with retaliation. Below, the man was castrated!
In short, Guo Dong, who was originally a gold captain, was promoted in rank after recovering from his injuries and became a guard of the grain and grass. This is a fat man. No matter what time, the rear grain and grass must arrange someone who is absolutely trustworthy. Caregiver, Guo Dong is obviously such a person.
"Come on, you finally came down here. I told your sister-in-law to prepare a good meal for noon in the morning. Come back with me and have a good meal. In the afternoon, I will accompany you to patrol again."
Xu An reminded: "No drinking."
"Don't worry, alcohol is prohibited in the Granary Guard Camp!
If you really can't hold it in and want to take a sip, you have to ask me for leave in advance and go outside to drink. "
said,
Guo Dong looked back at the granaries.
murmured:
"This is my life."
Guo Dong brought Xu An back home. It can be seen that Guo Dong's wife was originally Xiaojiabiyu. Of course, after marrying Guo Dong, life here would not be difficult, but when she and her mother-in-law were busy with housework, they also Very familiar.
As a guard, Guo Dong gets an official salary every month. As a standard household, he also gets a fixed amount of rice, flour, grain and oil every month, plus he also gets a monthly disability pension;
This is equivalent to him receiving three rations per month, so his mother and wife do not continue to work below to earn subsidies like the aunts in other standard households.
As for the pension money, he did not withdraw it, even if he had official duties;
I wish I could have more at home. I am disabled and in this state, and I always feel sorry for my wife;
He knew clearly that the reason why his daughter-in-law fell in love with him back then was because he was pretty good-looking, and he was considered to be more handsome among the rough guys in Yan.
You should eat the food from the palace, why not?
and,
Guo Dong has to support not only his mother, wife and children, but also his brother who is paralyzed in bed, and his mother-in-law's family. With a large population, many elderly people, and little labor, there is pressure.
But what Guo Dong knows better is that what the prince values ​​​​is whether he can protect the large granary behind the Zhennan Pass.
"You're back." Guo Dong's wife Yang wiped her hands on her apron and came out to greet her with a smile. When she saw Xu An behind her husband, she hurriedly said: "Brother Xu is here too, come in and sit down quickly."
Guo Dong is a granary guard and has reached the level of "officer". However, the military distinguishes between combat and logistics components. Guo Dong obviously belongs to the logistics and even local parts.
Xu An, on the other hand, is the Sima of the Chinese Army under the command of Jin Shuke, the commander-in-chief of Zhennanguan, and he has won the trust and respect of the commander-in-chief.
Ms. Yang had often heard her husband talk about the time he and Brother Xu were in the civilian camp. Her husband bluntly said that if it hadn't been for Xu An, Guo Dong's life would have been sealed long ago.
The war hasn't started yet, so he drowned in the Wangwang River for no reason, and he didn't even have enough money to receive the pension.
"Hello, sister-in-law."
Xu An saluted Yang respectfully.
The boy who had neither father nor mother when the barbarians entered the country fled to Yingdu and worked in the Lifu gang to survive. Now he is stable and knows etiquette.
"Look at you, why are you so polite?"
"Let's eat, we have to go to the granary in the afternoon." Guo Dong said.
"Okay, by the way, there are guests at home. They say they are your colleagues coming to visit."
"Colleagues?" Guo Dong was a little confused, "Where are the people?"
"In eldest brother's house."
Guo Dong originally had two brothers, but one brother died in the battle, and the other brother became disabled after coming off the battlefield and could only be bedridden.
"okay, I get it."
Guo Dong went into the back room, where his brother lived with them;
Guo Dong has never felt that his brother is a burden. According to the tradition of Dayan, the eldest son was awarded the Ding title. If there was no brother, he or his father would go to the battlefield.
As a guest, Xu An also went in with him.
Guo Dong opened the door,
I saw a man sitting on the chair next to my brother's bed. He seemed to be having a good chat with his brother, and he was still smiling.
at first glance,
I didn’t feel anything;
Looking at it for the second time,
Guo Dong's eyes immediately opened wide.
Xu An, who was behind him, knelt down directly:
"I will meet the prince at the end!"
Only then did Guo Dong remember, isn’t this the prince?
"Meet Your Majesty!"
Guo Dong also knelt down.
The brother on the bed was also stunned.
Zheng Fan stood up and said to the person on the bed: "I didn't spend much time in Yandi, and I didn't eat much snacks in Yandi. I stayed in the capital for a longer time, but as you said, the food in the capital is really poor. The local snacks from Dayan are delicious."
My brother didn’t know how to reply;
Zheng Fan looked at Guo Dong and Xu An and asked;
"Is Jinshu here?"
"Lord Commander-in-Chief?" Guo Dong was a little confused.
At this time, Guo Dong's wife shouted outside: "Master, the chief soldier is here, the chief soldier is here!"
Obviously, Yang knew Jin Shuke, because Jin Shuke had come down to inspect the granary many times.
Zheng Fan walked out of the house, followed by Guo Dong and Xu An.
Jin Shuke happened to walk into the courtyard and when he saw Zheng Fan, he immediately knelt down on one knee:
"I will finally pay my respects to the prince. May the prince live a thousand years!"
Jinshu did not wear armor, but was dressed in casual clothes and had a beard. He looked like a general from the Xia Dynasty, not like the barbarian that ordinary people had in mind.
"I'm hungry, let's eat."
……
The dining table is placed in the yard.
Zheng Fan and Jin Shuke sat facing each other, while Guo Dong and Xu An stood beside them and waited on them.
As for Guo Dong's family members, they didn't come over. Guo Dong was the one who served the dishes.
Zheng Fan didn't force anyone to be close to the people and let everyone sit together to eat. For them, it was more of a torment.
Jin Shuke got up and helped Zheng Fan serve the soup.
There was no wine prepared at home. To be precise, alcohol was prohibited in the granary.
"My lord, try this fish soup, it's delicious."
Zheng Fan took two sips, ate a piece of white and tender fish paste, and nodded.
"I came from Xueguan." Zheng Fan said.
Jin Shuke listened respectfully.
"Brother Ke Yandong has been dragged back to Fengxin City by Gu Ti to sweep the floor. What he did there is really outrageous."
Jin Shuke nodded slightly, not daring to comment.
Zheng Fan looked at Jin Shuke,
Road:
"You did very well."
"Your Majesty... the general will not dare!"
"You did a great job indeed. There is basically no criticism of you in the documents collected by the palace.
One,
You cooperated with the local officials in a tacit understanding, reclaimed the Zhennanguan area and took in the refugees in the Chu area, and your political achievements were gratifying. "
"Your Majesty, this is all the credit of those two prefects. They are really..."
"Okay, without the cooperation of you, the commander-in-chief, how will they collect the refugees from Chu Land? How will they open up new lands? You know, I don't like to talk nonsense."
"Yes, my lord."
"Secondly, you have also controlled Shanggu County very well. The Chu people on the other side of the Wei River basically did not dare to invade the territory. You were even able to build several forts on the other side of the Wei River. Okay, very good ."
In military matters, metallurgy is impeccable;
In government affairs, Jinshu is also almost perfect.
Unlike Snow Customs, which had the foundation and order left by himself and the demon kings, here at Zhennan Pass, it was completely made out of nothing.
Jinshu Ke comes from the three hundred barbarians who were first started by Zheng Fan. There are not many of the earliest batch of people left now;
Jin Shuke is the most dazzling one among them;
Unlike Brother Ke Yandong, who has Ke Yanbu as his capital, he is good at gold. He really came from scratch, from a city guard to his current position.
Starting from a very low level, with no great opportunities, and purely relying on their own efforts, this kind of person is the protagonist template in the world.
"You did very well."
The prince said it again.
"Prince..." Jin Shuke stood up.
"Sit down, sit down."
"Yes." Jin Shuke sat back again.
"But I still want to transfer you away from Zhennanguan."
"General, I will obey the order!" Jin Shuke directly accepted the order without saying a word.
"It's not because you've done so well that I'm jealous of you."
"The general doesn't dare, the prince is in the heart of the general, and his mind is as big as the sea!"
"But essentially, it's because you have done so well. When you are at Zhennanguan, the people below will want to take action against the Chu State."
"Yes, I will write all these in the book and submit it to the palace."
"Having seen it alone, you should also know that the current Dayan, no, the current Jindong, is the time when it needs to recuperate and gather strength.
In the past few years, I don’t plan to fight anymore.
You can control it, and I believe you can control it, but because your metal skills are at Zhennanguan, it is difficult for the people below to control themselves. "
Because everyone knows that you can fight, everyone knows that you are capable, so they want to go out even more.
"I will stay here for a few days. After you complete the handover, please follow me back to Fengxin City."
"I will obey your orders." Jin Shuke stood up, smiled and said, "I am happy to be able to return to the prince again."
"Don't worry, brother Ke Yandong, that idiot, you have to let him clean up for a year or two. You are of no use."
At this time,
A carriage stopped in front of Guo Dong's house.
On the carriage, Tiantian and Ji Chuanye came down. Tiantian held the prince's hand and walked into the courtyard of Guo Dong's house.
"Golden magic is possible."
"The end is here!"
"I have ordered you to be the military master of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Prince Jingnan, and teach them the art of war and their military training."
Jin Shuke had a look of shock on his face,
He was prepared to be transferred back to Fengxin City by the prince to be idle.
He had no intention of confronting the prince;
But he really didn't expect that the prince would actually give him such a big responsibility. No, this is a supreme honor!
To know,
He is a barbarian, a barbarian!
At this time,
Tiantian and Ji Chuanye bowed down together:
"I see Master every day."
"I have met the master in passing on my karma."
Jin Shuke took a deep breath and suppressed the tears in his eyes. For a moment, he didn't even bother to return the gifts from the two "disciples". Instead, he faced Zheng Fan and knelt down again with great solemnity:
"I have great skills in gold. I am willing to die for the prince in this life, no, in the next life!"
