Eastern Jin Invincible Iron Army

Chapter 35
Under the same sky, the champion general Mao Husheng especially hates the sun in the sky.The scorching sun of June had already turned the Jianghuai Plain into scorching heat, at least fine iron armor was very uncomfortable to wear.

In a short march of twenty miles, it took two hours to walk.It’s unbelievable not to listen to an average of five miles per hour. In fact, it’s not too slow for someone to wear hot armor and drive in the sun, with a body weight of more than forty catties.Mao Husheng, who was marching on horseback, had already drank a full liter of water in one go until his stomach swelled, and he could clearly hear the sound of water sloshing in his stomach as long as he moved a little.

Mao Husheng scrupulously enforced military discipline, as long as he dared to stop and rest, I am afraid that he would immediately attract the military discipline officer's stick.These Linhuai army's military and disciplinary troops can do bad things, as long as they are beaten with more than [-] sticks, they will never get out of bed within ten and a half months.However, the most tragic thing is that as long as you can't keep up with the team, you will be hit with five sticks first, and your flesh and blood will be flying everywhere.After being beaten with military sticks, there is no need to think about dressing up the wound and applying medicine. I don't want to be hit with ten military sticks for the second time, so I can only grit my teeth and stick to it.

After walking for forty miles, hundreds of people could not keep up with the team and were enforced military discipline and beaten with military sticks.Mao Husheng had no choice but to order to camp on the spot.

Mao Hu was born in a camp in Jiu County, more than 320 miles west of Fandian.Originally, the old county collection was in the third year of Daxing in the Eastern Jin Dynasty ([-]), when overseas Chinese set up Huailing County (the county is roughly equivalent to Nvshanhu Town, Mingguang City today), and it belonged to North Xuzhou (governing Zhongli County, now Fengyang County).Later, the Eastern Jin Dynasty returned to the Eastern Jin Dynasty with Xuzhou Governor Zhou Cheng because of Ran Wei.When the Eastern Jin Dynasty won Xuzhou in vain, Xuzhou was revoked, and more than [-] households in Huailing County were moved back to their original places.In just a few years, the old county collection was abandoned.

The old county collection is the seat of the original county government of Huai Ling County (from the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, China adopted three levels of state, county, and county. The state government is equivalent to the provincial capital, and the county government is like an administrative area), so the repaired county government and Taishoufu The high-level yamen are still there, but no one takes care of them, and the courtyard is full of weeds.The Linhuai army entered Jiuxianji, and immediately filled the ruined old city to its brim.

Eldest Changqiu Modi, who had never suffered much, was even more miserable. Usually, eunuchs of his level would walk sideways in the palace.Even though He Fani, the queen of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (the daughter of He Zhun, the servant of Sanqi), is the master of the Changqiu Palace, but Moody is Chu Suanzi's confidant, and even the queen He Fani dare not dump him. face.In the palace, there are only two people who can make Moody bow his head and obey orders, one is Chu Suanzi, and the other is the emperor Sima Dan.

When mentioning Queen He Fani, one should not casually mention the marriage system during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, sibling love was especially popular among the children of the noble families in the Southern Dynasties when they got married.It's a girl who is older than a boy, like He Fani who is four years older than Sima Dan, five years younger.In addition, gentry women marry at the age of 16, while in the north, women marry at the age of 12 (the famous eldest grandson Empress Chengqian was 12 years old and married at least 11 years old.) This age of marriage is not a fixed age, but everything is an exception.

At this moment, Moody's crotch was already sticky, and he couldn't tell whether it was leaked urine or sweat.But Moody gritted his teeth and said nothing, so Mao Husheng secretly admired: "What a slave!"

Although Moody was miserable, he persisted tenaciously.He has an obsession in his heart, that is to invite the genius doctor back to cure Sima Dan.In the industry of eunuchs in the imperial palace, the political principle of one emperor and one courtier is particularly prominent.As long as it is a lost eunuch, almost no one can die well.His status comes from Chu Suanzi, and Chu Suanzi's power comes from Sima Dan.Once Sima Dan has an accident and the new emperor ascends the throne, not only will he lose power, but his master Chu Suanzi will also lose power.Chu Suanzi is the empress dowager with a high reputation, no one dares to hurt her, she can crush Moody to death, just like crushing an ant.So no matter how hard and tiring it is, Moody has to persevere.No matter how hard and tired you are compared with losing power, it seems too unimportant.

After Wang Canjun of the Linhuai Army camped partly, he sent his envoy Cao Dafang, a small official, to the Fanjia Zhengdian to urge food.Cao Dafang's character is despicable, he has no virtue and talent, if he is asked to manage the accounts, he will make a mess.Let him guard the warehouse, and he guards himself and steals, cheats his superiors and his inferiors, and does all kinds of bad things.The only reason why he became Wang Canjun's confidant was mainly because Cao Dafang was particularly vicious.It's not good to let him do things, but if you let him hide in the dark, it's a ghost idea one after another.

Cao Dafang was almost the middle liaison between Wang Canjun and Yan Xiao Erdang Zheng Biao. Cao Dading swayed towards Fanjiazheng shop on a donkey until 45:[-] p.m. shop.Riding a donkey for more than [-] miles can take nearly four hours, which is no one.

At this time, Chen Xun had already organized an army of more than ten thousand salt lords.All the more than ten thousand capable salt owls were intoxicated by the grand blueprint that Chen Xun had drawn for them and couldn't extricate themselves.In fact, it is not to blame that the members of Yanxiao are too naive, "If you want to be an official, kill and set fire and be recruited." This is the only way for civilians, poor families, and reckless heroes.

The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties were the most aggressive era in Chinese history.During this period, there was no imperial examination system, and the Nine Officials Law was adopted.The so-called nine-rank official law is the nine-rank Zhongzheng system. It was founded by Chen Qun, a counselor of Cao Wei in the Three Kingdoms.The first consideration is based on family origin and background.Refers to the seniority and official status of the father and grandparents and the rank of title.Second is personal talent.The final product is awarded the official.

In fact, this Zhongzheng system is the same as a highly exposed phrase "tall, rich and handsome" in later generations. It is not important to be tall or handsome, and the most important thing is to be rich in the middle.And the nine-rank Zhongzheng system seems very fair.In fact, personal ability is not important, and virtue is not important, the most important thing is family background.If you have no virtue and no talent, you can just get your salary, and your staff and subordinate officials will do things. .Just like Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher who enjoyed a high reputation in Chinese history during the Northern and Southern Dynasties.In fact, he was the right general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.The right general is a very high military position, the third rank, which is equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the great military region of the later celestial dynasty.But if you look carefully at Wang Youjun's resume, you will find that Wang Xizhi's talent is recognized, but he has neither political achievements nor military achievements.In fact, the reason is very simple, because Wang Xizhi was born in the Langya Wang family, which is the Langya Wang family known as Wang Sima.

The members of the Yanxiao want to make progress, but they have to fight against the Eastern Jin court, bumping into the state and rushing to the county, making the Eastern Jin court unable to suppress them, and then taking over the Eastern Jin court's Zhao'an.

The morale of the Yanxiao members was very high. When Cao Dafang bumped into the outside of Fan's house like a headless chicken, Cao Dafang met Xu Meng in iron armor and holding a long axe.Cao Dafang rushed towards Xu Meng like [-] million and said arrogantly: "Hey, big man, I'm looking for you, Zheng Er, hurry up and pass the message."

Xu Meng said fiercely, "What Zheng Erye?"

Cao Dafang pointed at Xu Meng with a whip in his hand and said, "Stupid man, what are you doing, do you know who I am?"

Xu Meng said with a playful smile: "Then, please call me yet!"

Cao Dafang said: "I am the champion general!"

"Pfft!" Xu Meng laughed when he heard this.Looking at the cheeks of the sharp-mouthed monkey, Cao Dafang said with a wretched face: "I often hear people say that the champion general Mao Husheng is eight feet tall, with a strong back and waist, and a powerful force. Tsk tsk, no matter how you look at you, you don't think so!"

As soon as Xu Meng's words fell, the dozen or so salt owl soldiers around him burst out laughing.

Seeing everyone laughing at him unscrupulously, he felt something was wrong.Not to mention a dozen or so unknown bosses, even the seven masters of Yan Xiao, who dares to be presumptuous in front of him, and not give in to three points? .Cao Dafang, who is used to being a fox and a tiger, is best at guessing people's hearts.Seeing that Xu Meng didn't take him seriously, he realized that something was wrong.Especially the strong smell of blood in the air, the atmosphere is too weird.

Cao Dafang froze on the spot, speechless for a long time.Maybe there was a large-scale internal strife in the salt owl.He raised his whip slowly, gently clamped the donkey's belly, and commanded the donkey to prepare to run away.

As a hero with a saying, Xu Meng's eyes are poisonous, seeing Cao Dafang wanting to run, Xu Meng shouted loudly: "Die to me!"

As soon as I uttered the word, Xu Meng's long axe was raised high, and as soon as I pronounced the word, Xu Meng's long axe slammed down.As soon as the word "lai" was pronounced, Cao Dafang and the donkey were chopped off half of the donkey's rump by Xu Meng's long axe.The donkey howled in pain, and threw Cao Dafang to the ground.His eyes were closed tightly, and he did not know whether he was alive or dead.
