Chapter 583 Your grandfather from the Western Army is here!
The military and civilians in the western front felt bizarre.
Why did a good life suddenly become messy?
"The princess and the soldiers of Gao Niangzi went out of Turpan, and the army of Xiaoguanren of Wei advanced eastward. This is a big war. Who is provoking us again?" Several officials got up early to have breakfast, including buns, fried dough sticks, millet porridge and pickles. As they were eating, they talked about the news they heard last night, and asked if they were not very well-informed.
The well-informed person said: "Yesterday, the envoy of the court arrived in Hami. There were still a few people accompanying him. I heard that it was angering the General. As for what to do a big battle, it would be easier. Our Western Army will not have any opponents now. I see that this is going to fight, fight in a special way, and start fighting in full. Of course, the princess must fight against Chagatai when he goes west. The lady Gao goes to Beiting to take charge. He must also use troops against the Oirat, otherwise he doesn't have to bring so many field troops. The General's troops out of Friendship City, so naturally it will not be to fight against the Tatars, not that they cannot be attacked, but that the Tatars are joining together at this time. The price we have to pay is too high, so it is not cost-effective."
Then someone asked, "Who else can you use troops?"
"The court can send people to assassinate, why can't our Western Army send troops to revenge? We don't owe the court anything." The official who was having a meal said by the way, "How come the court, why does it require so much taxes every year?"
The owner of the teahouse served him again and said in surprise when he heard this: "What does the taxes in our western border have to do with the court? Why do you want us?"
The official smiled and said, "This is also a win-win situation. If we pay taxes, the court naturally wants to allow our goods to be circulated all over the world. We earn more, and we naturally have to give more. This is a win-win situation. What's more, what we can't figure out about the things that the General has decided is that we don't have the ability."
The teahouse owner just calmed down: "That must be a good thing."
Another official said, "However, I heard that Xiaoguan Wei will give the treasury a sum of silver every year, which is really not worth it."
The merchant who didn't know him couldn't help but say, "After all, he is the lord of the world..."
"What is the lord of the world? The lord of the world can send people to assassinate? Such a despicable act will not be as good as the lord of the world." Several outsiders cursed together.
The merchant said embarrassedly: "Just say that."
"I don't say anything, we don't owe the court anything, nor the emperor. The western frontier is a place where the court gave up many times and was ravaged by the Tartars. Three generations of King Zhongshun fought bloody battles to protect such a large area. Now, look at the countries in the world, and the western frontier does not have the ability to establish a country? I'm afraid it's not?" There was a green man heretic, "We have more than ten generations of people died in the western frontier. We don't want a soldier and a soldier in the court to conquer the Han world. How many years have the imperial court not allocated funds?"
"Since the general arrived in the western frontier, we have never asked for a single penny of the imperial court. It all depends on the economic foundation of our own hard work." An old man in a purple shirt on the table next to him said in a deep voice.
Everyone looked at it and said in surprise: "Did you see through it even if you are a clerk in Chang's house?"
Chang Yuanwai snorted: "I went to the western frontier later, but after seeing it too much, I naturally know who is good and who is bad. How did the imperial court treat those Tartar countries now? If you want silver, you will try every means to give the cannons. You will treat the western frontier as slavery, and it will be fine if you don't give anything. They want everything in the western frontier. How can this be done!"
The outsiders agreed together: "This is absolutely impossible!"
"It's like an honest man who worked hard to build a family business by himself. In the end, the patriarch not only did not praise the tribe who worked hard, but instead repeatedly wanted the family business of this man and wanted to kill this man. You said, where is the truth that honest people in the world deserve to be bullied and everything was taken away?" Chang Yuanwai said, "Even if Wang Zhi, the world's number one master, was used to assassinate him, do you think there is such a truth in the world?"
The outsiders angrily scolded: "This is so shameless. There cannot be such a truth in the world!"
There were angrily scolding in the teahouse, and small vendors and ordinary people who were getting up early on the roadside were also denounced the court.
"How many oil cakes are newly squeezed?" Lao Zhang asked with a grate.
The angry hundred generals threw a little bit of silver, counted the soldiers who followed them, rushed to the people in the front row to bow, and explained: "I'm sorry, everyone, the three armies have set off, we still have to be ready to attack at any time and eat first."
When Lao Zhang looked at Yinzi, he knew: "Okay, you twelve, you will squeeze thirty-six of them first, eat and drink enough to make up. By the time of war, you will have to work hard."
"Thank you, my father-in-law." The hundred generals said angrily, "Don't talk about it anymore. It's nothing strange. It's just that the court has gained a lot of urgency. King Zhao led his army around the Tatars' defense line and headed straight to our Helan Mountain. Therefore, the general led his troops eastward. Chagatai and Yarkand joined forces to join the palace in Chasili and outside Beiting City. The princess and Gao Niang went there to guard."
The people were furious.
Lao Zhang was furious: "If there was no conspiracy, how could they send troops at the same time? The court is getting more and more excessive. If we don't fight back, we will only make them more and more aggressive. We will fight, but we will just break the breakfast stall and get up after the fight. If we don't fight back, we're afraid that they will even change our children and grandchildren's habit of eating breakfast."
In recent years, with the development of the Western Front economy, the military and civilians in the Western Front have developed the habit of having to eat breakfast. Even if it is the most boring street shop, the first thing they do when they wake up early is to consider which shop to eat. It is not that they eat for free, and even the most boring street shop is a person who is a businessman who is gradually living a life of others.
People’s memory of hunger is the deepest, and the Chinese nation’s memory of hunger is even more etched in fear.
Therefore, no one in the westerners today remembers the days when they could not eat two meals a day in the past few years, so they cherish the good life of having three meals a day without worry.
The blindness education carried out at the same time made even small vendors like Lao Zhangtou realize where all this came from. Lao Zhangtou was frying oil cakes while the old woman was busy serving millet porridge, muttering: "It's nothing to do if we don't let the shop open, but if we pass the days when the men in the government who dare not say anything, we will not dare to die."
"Yes, we will never die these days." Several old men waiting aside said together.
An old man said, "I went to help several families who moved to the Guanzhong area to settle their food and accommodation last night. One family was pitiful. They gave birth to a well-behaved daughter. A Qianzheng from the Gansu General Office fell in love with this child and wanted to take it away. The family refused. That night, the Qianfan burned the houses of the family and said that they would even take them to death. What kind of world do you think this is? The court is afraid that it is not for our western border land, they are for our lives. We will never agree and we must not live a life that is nothing but a ghost."
But a young man smiled and said, "They are not afraid of being beaten. Wei Xiaolang teaches us. No matter how cruel the enemy is, we can still pick up the sticks in our hands and beat them to death. These evil thieves who are rich and unkind, and those masters who do not act well, will also pick up swords and guns and fight them."
As he was talking, several people came out from the royal palace, and even some officers came out to post the notice, talking about the causes and consequences of the war.
So the western border was excited!
Yes, not angry, just excited.
