Yang Peng thought to himself: "I agree that you want to replace these current officials, but you should not rush everything. I think you should understand the principle that haste makes waste!"
Li Mubai nodded, "I understand, Prince Yan, don't worry!" Yang Peng looked at Han Bing and smiled but said nothing. Han Bing was so flustered when he saw her, her face turned red, and she forgot all about the business of coming here.
Yang Peng was very amused when he saw that Han Bing was only shy. He felt a bad sense of pleasure and asked with a smile: "Han Bing, don't you have anything to say to me?" Han Bing then remembered the business, and asked with a smile. His face turned even redder, and he glared at Yang Peng in shame, then clasped his fists and said, "My subordinates are here to report that all the armies have been adjusted according to King Yan's orders!" Han Bing was talking about what Yang Peng had ordered not long ago. Order, now that the war has come to an end, the defense postures of each army have been adjusted to a certain extent in order to cope with possible battles that may break out in the future.
According to Yang Peng's order, the positions of the 2nd and 3rd legions remained unchanged and still defended the northern line of Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture. The 4th and 5th legions defended the junction of the south and the Song Dynasty. The first legion was transferred to Cangzhou and was directly under the first leg of the legion. Fifty thousand soldiers and horses are placed in Tianjing New City, and another 250,000 soldiers and horses of the directly affiliated corps, the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth corps, are all placed in Shanxi. Yang Yanzhao is in charge of the military in Shanxi area, while the military in Cangzhou area Han Bing is in charge of the military.
"In addition, 205 military mansions have been set up in Shanxi and Cangzhou in accordance with King Yan's order, and the ordnance personnel have basically been deployed." The military mansion Han Bing mentioned was actually what Yang Peng had done after listening to Li Mubai's suggestion. The reserve system established here is somewhat similar to the military government in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but there are also differences. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it was considered a regular army, but the military government here was a reserve or militia system.
The military government is managed by officials sent by each state or county and supervised by the military. Each military mansion has a thousand soldiers and officers, and the personnel are all civilians recruited by the military mansion. The soldiers in the military mansion are not standing troops. They only gather at the military mansion for training once every half month. They are usually civilians. Either farming or doing business or working as a slave, these are all non-interference. One advantage of joining the military government is that there are certain reductions and exemptions on various taxes, and you can also be exempted from labor. Therefore, as soon as the military government system appeared, it was Welcomed by the vast majority of ordinary people.
If soldiers in the military government receive a conscription order, they must report to the military government immediately. Once this happens, the pay and treatment of these soldiers will be the same as that of regular army soldiers until the conscription order is lifted. If military soldiers make meritorious service in the war or commit military discipline, the rewards and punishments are the same as those of regular army soldiers. All weapons and equipment for military soldiers are provided by the government, and they do not need to bear the burden themselves.
Two hundred and five military mansions are equivalent to 205,000 reserve troops. The overall cost is roughly equivalent to the cost of 20,000 regular troops, which is still very cost-effective.
Yang Peng nodded, glanced at Han Bing, and said with a smile: "Han Bing is so efficient!" Han Bing didn't feel anything special when he heard such words in the past, but now he sounded very excited. Emotions. He quickly put aside his random thoughts, clasped his fists and said, "King Yan, if you don't have any other instructions, I will go down to do some work!" Yang Peng said quickly, "Wait a moment, I have something else to tell you." "Yes." Li Mubai He cupped his fists and said: "King Yan, that subordinate has resigned!" Yang Peng nodded and said with a smile: "You should worry more about internal affairs!" Li Mubai said quickly: "This is a subordinate's duty. Do your best!" Then he retreated.
Yang Jiumei looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you." Then she turned and left. When Han Bing saw that Yang Jiumei had also left, she immediately panicked and didn't dare to look at Yang Peng anymore. She lowered her head and her heart pounded. Yang Peng looked at the shy Han Bing and found it very interesting. He joked: "I didn't expect that General Han Bing, who is so majestic and powerful in the world, would be so nervous sometimes!"
Han Bing was very angry, raised his head and glared at Yang Peng, and said: "You are talking nonsense, I am not nervous!" Yang Peng gently nodded Han Bing's cheek and said with a smile: "Then why is it so red here? ?" Han Bing said angrily: "It wants to be popular on its own, what can I do!" Yang Peng laughed, gave a thumbs up and praised: "This answer is really wonderful!"
"Humph, I still have a lot of important things to do. I won't gossip with you anymore!" He said and was about to leave. Yang Peng took Han Bing's slender hand and said with a smile: "What's the rush? There's no rush for big things right now! Come, come and go for a walk with me in the back!" Then he took the flustered Han Bing from behind. Left the hall and came to the garden. It is late spring at this time, the spring is bright, the flowers and plants are flourishing, and it is a fresh and gorgeous scene.
The two of them walked among the flowers, feeling quite poetic. Han Bing lowered his head with a gentle expression on his face. He couldn't help but think about the stories about talented people and beauties in those poems, and felt that he and his eldest brother seemed to be those talented people and beauties. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel very shy.
Yang Peng stopped and turned around. When Han Bing saw Yang Peng looking at him, he immediately became nervous and even asked: "You, what do you want to do?" Yang Peng smiled and said: "We are both talented men and beautiful women. On this beautiful occasion of spring, it is natural for us to talk about love. Say love!"
Han Bing was embarrassed, "I, I don't know how to say it!" "It doesn't matter, I'll teach you how to say it." Han Bing turned his head away, "No!" At this time, Han Bing's face was already red, and even The roots of my neck were red. Yang Peng found it very interesting, and whispered into Han Bing's ear: "I love you!" Han Bing was suddenly startled, and looked at Yang Peng with wide eyes, looking silly, as if he was scared! Yang Peng smiled and said, "Just say these three words to me!" Han Bing pursed her lips tightly and glared at Yang Peng, with a burning face, "No!"
Yang Peng said with a smile: "Just say three words, it's not such a big deal!" Then he showed sadness, "Could it be that everything Han Bing said to me before was a lie?" "No!" Han Bing He said anxiously, and then he saw Yang Peng looking at him with stern eyes, and he was ashamed again. He couldn't help turning his head away, "I am sincere to you, but I can't say these three words!"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "There is no one else here, just tell me what to be shy about! Come on, tell me, big brother especially wants to hear you say these three words to big brother!" Han Bing hesitated Undecided, he was very embarrassed, but he also didn't want to disappoint his elder brother. He finally summoned up the courage to turn his head, but when he saw Yang Peng's face, he couldn't say anything. "Hurry!" Yang Peng urged. Han Bing said in a voice like a gnat: "I love you!" As soon as he said these three words, he felt like his whole body was on fire. He was so embarrassed that he almost wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. He didn't dare to look at Yang Peng, so he turned around and ran away. .
Yang Peng looked at Han Bing's beautiful back and smiled, looking very proud. Han Bing stayed in the military camp for a few days and then went to Bingzhou. As soon as they arrived at Bingzhou Mansion, all the civil and military officials came to pay their respects, but one of the most important generals, Yang Erya, was not seen. Yang Peng couldn't help asking: "Where is General Yang Erya?" Yang Gui clasped his fists and said, "General Yang Erya is sick, so he didn't notify her that King Yan was coming!" Yang Peng couldn't help but worry when he thought of that delicate girl. stand up. Putting this matter behind for the time being, I asked about Shanxi's military affairs.
After the meeting, Yang Peng changed into casual clothes and led a group of secret guards to leave the camp and go to Yang Erya's temporary home in Bingzhou Mansion. It was a courtyard not far from the camp and belonged to a big local businessman. Yang Erya rented this place. He settled down as his temporary residence.
When they came to the door, they saw two Feifeng female guards standing guard on the left and right. When they saw Yang Peng coming, they were all overjoyed and hurried forward to pay their respects. Yang Peng and others got off their horses. Yang Peng asked the two women: "Is your general here?" A Feifeng female guard said quickly: "He is recuperating at home. The general is very ill this time!" Yang Peng frowned and asked from one of them. The secret guard took the paper bag containing ginseng, Ganoderma and other supplements and said to the secret guards, "Wait for me outside!" The secret guards clasped their fists in agreement.
Yang Peng followed the two Feifeng female guards into the courtyard, passed through the small hall and came to the small and quiet backyard. A Feifeng female guard who was guarding outside the main building was very surprised when she saw Yang Peng coming and hurriedly came forward to pay her respects. Yang Peng said no courtesy, glanced upstairs, and asked in a low voice: "How is Erya's illness? Have you seen the doctor?" The female guard stood up and said worriedly: "I've seen the doctor already. I’ve taken a few pills, but there’s not much improvement, which is really worrying!”
Yang Peng thought for a moment and said to the female guards: "I can just go up to see her. You don't have to come up. If there are too many people, it will affect her recovery!" The female guards responded. Yang Peng went in carrying several large bags of supplements. As soon as he came upstairs, he heard a few soft coughs. He couldn't help but follow the sound and saw Yang Erya leaning on the bedside reading a book, so he walked forward.
When Yang Erya heard the footsteps, she thought they were her female guards and thought to herself: Didn't I teach them not to come up and disturb them? Why didn't they listen to me? Thinking about this, I raised my head. However, what caught his eye was not the female guards under her, but King Yan! Seeing King Yan approaching with a smile on his face carrying several large bags of things, Yang Erya was stunned for a moment, and then tears actually flowed from her beautiful eyes.
Yang Peng was shocked when he saw this scene. He quickly put down the supplements, walked quickly to the bed and sat down. He asked with great concern: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? I'll call the doctor right away!" Yang Erya replied. God came to him and he quickly shook his head, "No, it doesn't matter!" Then he lowered his head.
Yang Peng looked at Yang Erya carefully and saw that the originally beautiful girl was as haggard as Lin Daiyu. He couldn't help but feel very distressed and couldn't help but said: "How can a good person suddenly become so seriously ill?"
Yang Erya wanted to say it was okay, but the words came to her lips but she couldn't say them out. A burst of sadness suddenly came to her heart, and she couldn't help but threw herself into Yang Peng's arms and started crying. Yang Peng was at a loss and confused. He could only coax him like a child: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. A minor illness will be fine soon!" Yang Erya saw that Yang Peng was coaxing him like a child. , couldn't help bursting into laughter. He raised his head, looked at Yang Peng with tearful eyes, and said angrily: "I'm not a child!"
Yang Peng chuckled, "Yes, yes, he is not a child! Who is Yang Erya? That is a fierce general of our Yanyun Army!"
Yang Erya laughed, and there were still tears on her face at this time, just like a pear flower in the rain, extremely charming. Yang Peng couldn't help but be stunned. When Yang Erya saw Yang Peng staring at her face, she couldn't help but feel ashamed and happy. She lowered her head and asked in a voice like a gnat: "You, what are you looking at?" Yang Peng came back to his senses and said with a smile. : "Look at my little sister Erya!" Then he sighed: "As soon as I came to Taiyuan, I heard that my little sister Erya fell ill, which made me very anxious!"
Yang Erya was so moved and looked at Yang Peng journeyingly. Yang Peng thought: "We must find a better doctor to take a look! If it doesn't work, you can follow me back to Yanjing and take a good rest for a while!" Yang Erya shook his head, "It doesn't matter, it's just It’s just a cold infection.”
Yang Peng frowned and said, "If it's just a cold, how come I haven't gotten any better after taking a few pills?" Yang Erya asked in surprise, "How do you know how many pills I've taken?" Then he understood and said angrily. : "It must be those guards who are talking nonsense in front of big brother! I told them not to talk nonsense!"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "They are worried about you too!" Yang Erya's anger subsided and he nodded.
Yang Peng pointed to the large paper bags placed on the small table, "Those are some supplements that my eldest brother brought for you. They are all warm medicinal materials such as century-old ginseng. They can not only replenish vitality but also dispel the cold. It's just right." Suitable for you." Yang Erya nodded, "Thank you, brother, I will ask them to make soup later!" Yang Peng shook his head, "No need to wait for them, brother will cook it himself!" Yang Erya was very surprised and felt unbelievable , then shook his head vigorously and said: "It's impossible, it's impossible! My eldest brother is the King of Yan, how can you..."
Yang Peng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Prince Yan, that's in front of outsiders, so don't keep mentioning it!" Then he stood up, "You rest, I'll go to the cupboard to help you." Chicken soup!" Then he walked to the side table, picked up the supplements and went downstairs. Then Yang Erya heard busy sounds coming from downstairs. Suddenly, Yang Erya felt that she was so happy. She felt that her elder brother was her own, her own..., thinking of this, her face turned red. With an infinitely shy appearance, her originally pale face now became very charming!
Not long after, a female guard rushed up and said to Yang Erya as if she was offering a treasure: "General, haven't you seen, King Yan, he, he is so good at cooking! It's like, it's like Tianxianglou Where’s the chef!” Tianxiang Tower is the most famous restaurant in Taiyuan City. What’s amazing is that after countless wars in Taiyuan, everywhere was severely damaged, but Tianxiang Tower survived and remained intact.
Yang Erya blushed and said nothing. The female guard was very envious and said: "The King of Yan actually cooked for the general himself. King Yan really knows his thoughts about the general!" Yang Erya was so shy that his heart was pounding. He glared at the female guard and said, "Chaotic You're talking nonsense! How can it be better if your elder brother hears it?" The female guard said with a smile: "If King Yan hears it, I will take the opportunity to tell him how our general treated him..." Yang Erya was embarrassed, He said urgently: "Don't say it!"
The female guard chuckled, and then said seriously: "It's not the subordinates who are talking about the general. Since the general has intention, he should say it. It's always embarrassing to say it. When the general becomes old, it will be too late to regret it!"
Yang Erya murmured with red cheeks: "I, I don't know yet, what does he think?" The female guard said angrily: "General, isn't this obvious? If King Yan doesn't like the general, , why are you cooking for the general yourself! This is not an ordinary love, you can only do this if you love him very much!"
Yang Erya felt both shy and happy, and said: "Maybe, maybe he only thinks of me as his sister, but in fact, it doesn't mean that!" The female guard really hated iron! Just as he was about to say more, there were footsteps from downstairs, and at the same time Yang Peng's voice came up: "Fresh bamboo shoots and fried mushrooms are here!" Yang Erya panicked and quickly lowered his voice to the female guard: "What you just said Don't say it in front of big brother, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!" The female guard's heart trembled, and she promised with clasped fists. Although these female guards chatted and laughed freely with Qiong Ying, once Qiong Ying became serious, they would never dare to be presumptuous.
Then Yang Peng came up, holding a plate of steaming hot dishes in each hand. For a while, the fragrance of bamboo shoots and mushrooms filled the whole room. The female guard rushed over and took two plates of dishes. Yang Peng walked to Yang Erya's bed and sat down, smiling and saying: "There are also ginseng chicken soup and Ganoderma lucidum duck stewed in the kitchen, which will be ready later. You can eat some bamboo shoots and shiitake mushrooms first to appetize. "Yang Erya looked at Yang Peng blankly.
Yang Peng said with a smile: "What's wrong?" Yang Erya quickly lowered his eyes, "No, it's nothing!" At this time, the female guard moved the small table with two plates of dishes to the bedside, and said with a smile: "General, try it quickly Try it, this is the wish of King Yan!" Yang Erya was so panicked that he didn't dare to look at Yang Peng. He took the chopsticks from the hand of the female guard, casually picked up a bamboo shoot and ate it, absent-mindedly and unwillingly. Know what it tastes like.
"How is it? Does it taste good?" Yang Peng asked with a smile. Yang Erya nodded quickly, "It's delicious!"
Yang Peng laughed and said, "As long as you like it. Ginseng chicken soup and Ganoderma lucidum duck soup are more delicious. You will have to eat a few more bowls later!" Yang Erya nodded and said, still not daring to look at Yang Peng. Seeing that she only ate one chopstick and then stopped eating, Yang Peng asked in confusion: "Don't you like these dishes?" Yang Erya quickly shook his head and said: "No, I do!" Then he continued eating for a while. I eat a piece of bamboo shoots and then a piece of mushroom. In fact, my mind is wandering and I don’t know what to eat. Yang Peng looked at Yang Erya with a smile, which made Yang Erya even more flustered.
Yang Peng sat for a while, then got up and went to the kitchen. Yang Erya couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, Yang Peng came back with a porcelain pot of ginseng chicken soup, followed by a female guard with Ganoderma lucidum and old duck soup in her hand. After placing the two soups, the female guard guarding Qiong Ying walked up to the female guard and winked. The latter pursed her lips and smiled, and then the two left quietly, leaving only Yang Peng in the room. Yang Erya and Yang Erya were extremely nervous.
Yang Peng filled a bowl of ginseng chicken soup, walked to the bed and sat down. Yang Erya reached out to take it, but Yang Peng said: "You are weak, let me feed you!" Yang Erya said hurriedly: "No, no need. !" Yang Peng's eyes widened, "No need, come on, open your mouth!" After saying that, he scooped a spoonful of chicken soup and brought it to Yang Erya's lips. Yang Erya was pretty and red and was in a dilemma, but finally opened her mouth. She pursed her red lips and drank the soup. Yang Peng smiled and continued to feed, and Yang Erya drank slowly. Neither of them spoke, and just like that, Yang Erya drank the whole bowl of chicken soup. Yang Erya saw that Yang Peng was still serving her soup, so she quickly blushed and said, "No, I'm full!"
Yang Peng asked: "Is such a bowl of soup enough?" Yang Erya nodded. Yang Peng asked worriedly: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Yang Erya shook his head quickly, "No, I feel much better now!" Unexpectedly, he couldn't help but cough as soon as he said the words. I panicked and wanted to stop immediately, but the more I thought about it, the more I couldn't stop, and I coughed very hard. Yang Peng quickly put down the bowl, then quickly came behind Yang Erya, hugged her into his arms, and patted her back gently. Gradually, Yang Erya's coughing stopped, and she felt that she was in her elder brother's arms. She felt shy and wanted to leave his arms, but in the end she did not take action.
Yang Peng frowned and said, "You are very ill! No, I have to find a good doctor for you!" "It doesn't matter!" Yang Erya said. Yang Peng let go of Yang Erya, "I'll take care of this, so you don't have to worry about it. You just need to stay at home and take good care of yourself!" Then he stood up, "I'll go right away." After that, he turned around. left. Yang Erya stared blankly at the stairs where Yang Peng left, feeling something she had never felt before in her heart. It was the feeling of being cared for and taken care of, like being wrapped in a kind of warmth.
Yang Peng came down from upstairs, explained to the female guards, then left the yard, returned to the camp, and ordered someone to summon Zhang Xiaochun.
Zhang Xiaochun received the call and rushed to the camp to meet Yang Peng. Yang Peng said: "Master Zhang, there is no need to be polite!" "Thank you, King Yan!" Yang Peng asked: "Master Zhang is very familiar with Bingzhou. I wonder if there is a good doctor in Taiyuan City?" Zhang Xiaochun immediately thought that King Yan must be asking this question. For the sake of the beautiful General Yang Erya, he quickly said: "Reporting to King Yan, the good men in the city are none other than the Sun and Liu families of South Street. Those two villains have already invited General Yang Erya. Could it be that, Yang Erya General General’s condition has not improved?”
Yang Peng frowned and shook his head, "Those two don't seem to be of much use! Is there no good doctor besides those two?" Zhang Xiaochun said in embarrassment: "This area is hundreds of miles away, or the entire Shanxi. I'm afraid there is no one better than the two of them." Then his expression changed, "But, but..."
"But what?" Zhang Xiaochun clasped his fists quickly and said: "When it comes to doctors, Sun and Liu are already the best, but when it comes to medical skills, there are people who are better than them! This villain almost forgot about this, and Bingzhou Capital Chief Shi Du Cheng is well versed in medical skills, much better than Sun Liu!"
Yang Peng knew this Du Cheng. It was Du Cheng, his son and Zhang Xiaochun who led the Taiyuan officials and soldiers and civilians to surrender that day. In his memory, he was a middle-aged man who was not tall and well built. He always gave people a kind and gentle feeling. However, Yang Peng could tell at a glance that he was not a simple figure. Yang Peng asked in confusion: "Why does he know medical skills as a long history?" Zhang Xiaochun said: "What King Yan doesn't know is that Du Cheng learned medical skills from a famous medical doctor in his early years, and later became the capital of Shanxi Province. A well-known miracle doctor. However, because he later went into business and then entered officialdom by chance, everyone gradually forgot his original identity."
Yang Peng nodded, and immediately said to Wang Kai, the captain of the secret guard beside him: "Go and invite Du Cheng!" Wang Kai agreed and ran down. Soon after, Wang Kai led a middle-aged man with a medium build, a round face and a kind face in. It was Shi Ducheng, the governor of Bing. As soon as Du Cheng saw Yang Peng, he hurriedly paid homage: "Your Majesty, Du Cheng, pays homage to His Highness King Yan!"
"Master Du, there is no need to be polite." "Thank you, King Yan!" Then he cupped his hands towards Zhang Xiaochun who was standing aside and said, "Master Zhang!" Zhang Xiaochun returned the gift. Yang Peng asked Du Cheng: "I heard that Mr. Du is well versed in medical skills?" Du Cheng bowed and said, "I practiced medicine in my early years. Although I dare not say that I am well versed in medicine, I can say that I know a little bit about it." Yang Peng stood up. Get up, "That's great, just come with me." "Yes."
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
