Chapter 3332: Small Path
Chapter 3331 Small Path
Anyone who has "experience" can call it "experience". Some of these "experiences" may be pleasant and refreshing, but some may be extremely painful, and most "experiences" are relatively painful.
Fruits and melons will naturally look like whatever soil they are in. Even the best seeds on saline-alkali soil will grow with a saline-alkali appearance. Corruption is prevalent in Shandong, and those who work seriously will naturally not survive. Therefore, there must be only two choices, either kneeling and living, or standing and dying.
Just like Chai Yu.
He also wanted to live standing up, and wanted to be able to eat this bowl of rice standing up, but his family friends told him that he could not eat it standing up, and that it would only taste delicious if he knelt down.
So……
Kneel?
The journey was shaky, but thanks to the care of his family friend, he didn't have to follow the cart like other craftsmen. Instead, he could sit on the cart and wander around, and then he had the energy to think and ask himself thousands of times, what is he? Should you stand or kneel.
This is the benefit that his family friends get from kneeling down...
When he reflected, his hair stood on end.
Kneeling is undoubtedly frustrating, but you can get something to eat while kneeling.
While he was standing, some people tried to persuade him, while others kept kicking his knees...
He is indeed right.
He was indeed at fault.
His mistake was only to point out that the craftsmen who cast it were not wrong and there was nothing wrong with the bell and chime, so he was indeed wrong.
If Chai Yu could have understood this at the time, he would not have been so insistent when Du Kui argued that it was the craftsman's fault. But wouldn't that be equivalent to a person like Du Kui?
Kneel down...
My knees hurt!
Some people say that as long as someone stutters!
However, for some reason, Chai Yu felt that the world should not be like this, and it cannot be like this...
But when he stood up to speak, no one listened to him, no one believed him, even his family friends were trying to persuade him, "Forget it, forget it..."
Then even the craftsmen remained silent, as if the things Chai Yu said for the craftsmen were not for the craftsmen, but for other people. In the end, all the sounds naturally disappeared, leaving only the sound above.
Not everyone has the right to speak.
Chai Yu originally thought that by putting on a brocade robe and a crown, he would have the right to speak, but in fact...
As the sun set, the motorcade arrived at the stopping point of Cao Jun's post station.
The young official in Jinyi jumped out of the car, and then with a smile on his face, he started to fight with Cao Jun, who was in charge of the post.
Several Cao Jun soldiers walked around the baggage cart with swaying steps, pointing, and even lifted the felt cloth with their hands, "What are you pulling?" 』
The craftsman in charge of transportation bent his head and smiled.
Do the soldiers of Cao's army have the right to inspect the vehicle convoy? Yes, but that is for ordinary merchants, such as this kind of army's baggage convoy. In principle, they are not qualified to inspect. Otherwise, if something goes wrong with the transported items, whose fault is it?
But in the land of Shandong, the word principle is what we talk about.
Chai Yu watched the soldiers stabbing and lifting this car, and then whether they were responsible for driving, those responsible for guarding and guarding, those responsible for using it, and even his own who was responsible for the entire convoy. When all the brothers and junior officials in Jinyi, who were close friends in the world, seemed to have gone blind collectively. They couldn't see anything and didn't know anything, he suddenly understood that he had made the mistake of treating those kneeling down as the same as himself. As a result, these people have become dogs after getting used to kneeling.
The one standing, high up, said, "Hey!" Come and eat! 』
Chai Yu suddenly burst out laughing. He figured it out, but he didn't understand it even more. He laughed and cried.
The young official in Jinyi quickly smiled at Cao Jun, who was on duty at the checkpoint, saying, "It's okay. I just received some stimulation at home and am confused... confused..."
The team leader squeezed the money bag in his hand. Regardless of whether Chai Yu was really crazy or fake, the money in his hand was the benefit of actually falling into his pocket. !
"Have you checked it?" No problem! ” The leader of the checkpoint team shouted loudly.
The soldiers of Cao's army at the checkpoint also understood and responded with a smile, then they all stopped and walked back.
"Okay, unload the car over there!" Take the mules and horses to wash..." The young official in Jinyi ordered and walked over, "Brother Chai, what's wrong with you? 』
"It's okay..." Chai Yu smiled and wiped the tears from his eyes, "It's okay, I just figured it out, figured it out!" 』
"Ah ha ha! As long as you know! Just fine! ” The young official in Jinyi suddenly became happy and said, “I said you have an old man and a young child in your family. It’s a good thing that you can figure it out! Good thing! Haha, come on, let’s have a drink tonight! 』
Chai Yu originally wanted to say that drinking was not allowed during transportation, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
Why bother?
So be it……
Kneel down.
After all, the family still needs to live and eat.
But for some reason, Chai Yu looked at the setting sun in the distant mountains, twitched twice on his face, and finally put on a smile that looked almost like crying, "Ha, good... Yes, it's really good..." …』
…
…
There were originally no roads in this world, but when there were more people walking, there were checkpoints.
The original purpose of the checkpoint is of course security, but after its establishment, security often becomes a secondary item.
Just like two good brothers, purpose and means, they will always fall in love and fight with each other. In the end, it is hard to tell whether the purpose or the means is more important...
At least the current Cao army leader, after getting the money, no longer cares about what the transportation team does or does not do.
Anyway, the purpose of setting up a card is to punish...
Well, ahem, is it just for safety education and regulating traffic?
Look at this road, how straight and smooth it is. Any car or horse queuing up on this road will definitely speed over the speed limit, right?
So once speeding is exceeded, is it dangerous and will there be casualties?
So in order to avoid these dangers, it is natural to set up traffic jams to punish... well, to set up traffic jams to educate passing caravans and pedestrians, right?
As for whether the dangers and casualties have been reduced after education, or whether these educated people have really understood the good intentions of the managers and whether they have truly accepted the meaning of education, that is another matter. Something happened.
At least at this moment, Cao's army at the checkpoint was very happy.
Of course, Cao's army is happy and will not give all the soldiers of Cao's army a lot of money. Being able to take out two or three coins from the money bag to give other soldiers a meal is already very kind and generous...
And when the ordinary soldiers of Cao's army saw that their team leaders were at this checkpoint all day long, and were rewarded with the popular food and spicy food for their hard work by fully educating and coaching the passers-by and transporting the convoy, would they also have Some people began to wonder, how can they change their barren living conditions?
Ever since, someone will always find some way.
Among the Cao soldiers at the checkpoint, there was a man who was walking unsteadily, looking back from time to time, and then ducking into the bushes on the side when most people were not paying attention.
And in the bushes, there was already a figure squatting there.
Across the bushes, Cao Jun's soldiers twisted their buttocks, lifted up their robes, and coughed twice.
"If you fart, let it go!" My butt is exposed here, and even the bird is bitten by mosquitoes..." A low voice came from the bushes, "Then what is being transported in the convoy? Is it because of the lack of food and grass? 』
"It's not grain and grass," Cao Jun's soldiers responded in a low voice, "It doesn't smell like grain, but it smells like saltpeter..."
"The smell of saltpeter?" "The voice in the bush repeated in a low voice, and then said quickly, "I know..."
Immediately there was the sound of clothes rubbing against each other, and it was obvious that the figure was getting up and leaving.
"Wait..." Cao Jun's soldiers said hurriedly, "Where is my reward?" 』
"It's indispensable for you. I also gave you a "little surprise". Just look for it later..."
"Little surprise?" ” Cao Jun’s soldiers suddenly felt a little happy, so they hurriedly cut off the strip, then randomly pulled two or three leaves from the bush, wiped them, and then moved towards the original position of the man.
"Dry! 』
The soldiers of Cao's army were cursing.
He touched the "little surprise" left by that person...
Of course, I also saw the money bag next to the "little surprise".
So Cao Jun's soldiers didn't care about anything. They wiped their hands on the sand on the ground a few times, then grabbed the money bag and tore off the rope of the money bag. When they saw the shining silver coins and copper coins in it, they immediately became excited. He smiled brightly.
What could be more heart-warming than money these days?
As long as you have money, let alone some "little surprises", even if you eat them, some people will eat them.
Make money, not shabby.
When people in Shandong, whether in the Han Dynasty or in the countryside, all focus on money, and everything is oriented towards money economy, then as long as you can make money, what can't you do? What's for sale?
…
…
Hedong.
Cao Jun occupied the area.
From somewhere, a group of soldiers suddenly appeared and came in groups.
They held weapons and marched in confusion.
Someone in the queue looked up at the three-color flag above his head and couldn't help but grin, "Oh my god, does this thing look like it..."
"It doesn't matter if it looks like it or not!" When I say they are alike, they are likenesses! ” The commander in the queue cursed, “Stand up straight as fuck, we are all fucking hussars now!” Do you understand the Hussars? ! Show off your momentum! 』
The soldiers in the queue responded in twos and threes.
"Damn it!" ” The commander drew out his sword with a clang and waved it, “Didn’t you fucking eat? Show off your momentum! 』
The soldiers of Cao's army in the queue were not afraid and said directly: "We really didn't have enough to eat!" 』
"Yep! 』
"How can you be energetic if you haven't eaten enough?" 』
"Dry! ” The commander waved his sword and said, “If you rob these fools, you will have something to eat!” There’s something to drink! Get the money! Eat whatever you want, drink whatever you want, whatever... well, it's up to you to eat and drink! Turn in the rest! 』
"Oh oh oh oh! 』
When the soldiers heard this, they immediately cheered. Green light appeared in everyone's eyes, and the queue suddenly gained some momentum and majesty.
Who can be robbed of this place?
There are only animals raised in captivity...
These squires from Hedong.
Although these gentry in the Hedong Cao army occupied area said that they were willing to follow the call of the Han Dynasty and the advice of the prime minister to go to the free Shandong land, it was easy to talk, but it was difficult to take action. Anyway, if the cavalry really came, they couldn't just use knives without saying anything, right?
But what these Hedong gentry never expected was that the "cavalry" really came, and even showed their swords!
The "three-color flag" flew high, but if you are more careful, you will find that there seems to be something wrong with the "three-color flag" of this team of people. For example, the seam interface is really rough, and the three colors are not so pure, but at first glance, it seems to be the same.
These Hedong gentry originally thought that as long as they closed the door and didn't go out to cause trouble, there would be no disaster, but they realized at this moment that they were wrong, really wrong.
Not causing trouble does not mean that everything will be fine!
Not making trouble does not mean that others will be content!
When the swords were raised, these Hedong gentry realized that they had no ability to resist.
Perhaps if they had not sent those honest villagers and farmhands away before, they would have had some resistance at the moment, but...
Before, when these Hedong gentry sent those ignorant, honest, and incompetent villagers and farmhands to Cao's army, they always felt that these villagers and farmhands were just weeds in the field. They would grow again after a while, and they were so annoying that sending some people away might make the remaining untouchables behave better!
However, at this time, these gentry realized that the villagers and farmhands who were despised, abandoned, and abandoned by them were their real umbrellas of protection, and they originally thought that their knowledge, scriptures, reputation, money, etc. were like trash in front of the swords!
Although these Hedong gentry didn't know how the troops with tricolor flags got through Cao's defense line and invaded them, this didn't stop them from killing without saying anything!
Although these Hedong gentry tried to communicate and persuade them, and said that they had contributed "power" to the Han Dynasty and Prime Minister Cao, and paid manpower, material resources and financial resources, no one listened to them, and no soldiers stopped them.
"Kill them! Loot them all!"
"Ahaha! We are the Cavalry Army!"
...
...
The Hedong gentry welcomed their "little surprise".
But no one liked it.
I don't know if it was accidental, but the news that the "Cavalry Army" burned, killed and looted a certain Hedong gentry was quickly spread to other places.
At first, some people didn't believe it, because after all, there were still many Cao troops around, and the official roads were also full of Cao troops. Although they had heard about the misdeeds of some cavalry troops in the Zhongtiao Mountains, it was still in Zhongtiao Mountains and near Pubanjin. It was still very safe near Anyi, Yixian, and Pixian!
But how come there are "cavalry troops" here now?
What are the Cao troops doing?
What are so many people doing in the Cao army camp in Anyi?
After the little surprise, these Hedong gentry were naturally frightened.
These Hedong gentry who thought that if Cao Cao came, they would surrender to Cao Cao, and if Fei Qian came, they would surrender to Fei Qian, and they thought that they could stay out of it, and at most they would lose some lowly people and floating wealth, suddenly panicked. They found the Cao army, hoping to get the protection of the Cao army, but were politely but coldly rejected.
Cao Jun Military Academy said that now is the most critical moment of the battle with the Hussars, and there are no extra troops to protect them. They also suggested that they move to the "safe area" as soon as possible according to the Prime Minister's intention, so as to enjoy the true freedom of the Han Dynasty, breathe fresh air, and the sweet sunshine and rain.
Moreover, Cao Jun Military Academy said that all the things were one-sided statements of the Hedong gentry. The specific situation still needs further investigation to determine whether it is the "Hussars" or ordinary bandits and road bullies...
Investigation, research, and procedures.
This made the Hedong gentry, who were used to being able to take the green channel and enjoy convenient services on weekdays, suddenly anxious.
A group of Hedong gentry gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
"How many, how many villagers, what should we do? What should we do now?
"Are we really going to fight for our lives here?
"It's not worth it! It's not worth it!
"What should we do?
"I think everyone should leave. These people are desperate criminals. Everyone should not give up their lives here. '
'Yes, let's go. It's better to lose face than to lose life. '
'We are all right. We were forced to do this! Damn God! '
Crying and cursing.
Some were anxious, some were worried, and some felt that the sky was about to fall, but no Hedong squire thought of or mentioned the villagers and farmhands he had abandoned, discarded, and despised before.
Those who supported them, trusted them, and even spoke for them and stopped the carriage of the general of the cavalry for them...
So, they found that they thought there was a way to go, but now they suddenly found that there was no way.
At least there was no proper way, so some people were looking for other ways out...
It doesn't matter what the way is, as long as they can get out of the dangerous situation, these Hedong gentry also burst out with enthusiasm that they have never had before.
『Brother Li! I am here to greet you... I heard from others that Brother Li has a way...』
『Are you kidding? No, no! Where does the way come from?』
『Oh, Brother Li, don't you believe me? I am sincere and really want to find a way...』
There was a lot of pulling and tugging, flirting, and sticking.
『If it weren't for someone's sake... I tell you, there is really a little way...』
