I don't know how long it took, but Zhang Qi recovered from the heavy rain.
Turned.
Only then did he realize that the person holding the umbrella for him had become Huo Qubing.
"when did you come?"
"I've been here for a while. I saw the general immersed in the rain and didn't dare to disturb him."
"Ha, I just saw that the rain was a bit heavy and I was worried about the people living in places prone to flash floods."
"Let's go back to the hall. The autumn rain in September is the coldest. Don't catch the wind and cold."
It's been almost a month, and Huo Qubing has become quite familiar with Zhang Qi. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to enter Zhang Qi's mansion in Wuyou.
Raindrops pattered on the back of the tiles, and the white noise was the most immersive.
The teapot's mouth is filled with misty green smoke, which continues upward.
Ironing the cup, making tea, slurping, a line of water poured out from the spout of the teapot, filling the white tea cup.
"It's been a month since you came to Wuyou. Why don't you go back and say hello to your uncle?"
Pushing a cup of tea to Huo Qubing, who was sitting respectfully, Zhang Qi asked softly.
"I came here today to submit my resignation to the general. Over the past month, I have benefited a lot from the general's treatment of diseases. I am here to express my gratitude to the general."
"Haha, it's just some fists and kicks. If you want to make some achievements in the army, personal bravery is important, but it is not as important as leading the army. When you go back, ask your uncle for advice. Although I have never met Captain Wei Qing , but when you came here this time, I also heard about the bandits you killed along the way."
After taking a sip of tea, the bitter taste made Huo Qubing grin.
Not many young men like drinking tea, even our future champion.
Huo Qubing grinned, stood up solemnly, and bowed to Zhang Qi as a disciple.
Zhang Qi looked at him funny: "It doesn't have to be like this. You and I are not masters and disciples. This swordsmanship can be regarded as an exchange between you and me."
"It's still necessary. Qu Bing has thanked the general for his teachings for a month. If there is a chance, Qu Bing will repay me."
Gradually, it rained for half the afternoon, and Huo Qubing disappeared from Zhang Qi's mansion. Apart from the cold tea, there was only a jade pendant left by Huo Qubing on the table.
This jade pendant was once Liu Che's favorite, but as he loved Huo Qubing more and more, he gave it to Huo Qubing. Today, Huo Qubing gave it to Zhang Qi.
After they left and the tea cooled, Zhang Qi stood up from his seat with a smile, walked to the place where Huo Qubing was before, reached out and picked up the jade pendant.
"Champion"
"What a pity."
September.
Wulu County has experienced continuous heavy rainfall. Although the rain stopped every day, it would still fall as scheduled the next day.
Fortunately, Wulu County Government issued the order in time, and there were no casualties in this rain.
Huo Qubing, who returned to Jiaoli, also told Wei Qing all about his contacts with Zhang Qi within a month.
Wei Qing was silent for a long time after hearing this, and finally sighed slightly.
Still no big gains.
We can only make a rough assessment of Zhang Qi.
Great talent, benevolence, bravery, no rebellion.
A secret letter was secretly sent back to Chang'an, and he continued to train the new soldiers, striving to turn them into real elite soldiers as soon as possible.
Join the army.
Huo Qubing's changes shocked all the generals. At the age of fifteen, he accumulated personal reputation in the army by virtue of his boldness, carefulness, and the more proficient military skills he was taught by Zhang Qi.
Nowadays, when the soldiers in the army mention Huo Qubing, they will no longer start by saying that he is Wei Qing's nephew.
Even those Yulin Langs now regard Huo Qubing in a different light. They somewhat believe Wei Qing's words and regard Huo Qubing as a comrade in arms.
Naturally, Wei Qing was the most shocked by Huo Qubing's change. He was his nephew and he knew best that if Huo Qubing was still a young man who didn't know the heights of the world before, then now, he saw Huo Qubing's courageous and fearless heart. Saw a real man.
Wei Qing looked east.
Now he is even more curious about Zhang Qi. What kind of general will a person who can train a good young man within a month be? Will he bring more vitality to the big man?
Unfortunately, Zhang Qi, whom he was curious about, had already left Wuyou.
Leaving behind a letter asking for leave, he returned to Wuhuan by boat.
Originally, Zhang Qi wanted to stay in Wuyou until the spring of next year, but a piece of news came back and he had to go back early.
because.
The military minister Shanyu died.
Yes.
The most critical part of his plan has been completed.
Huns.
It's time to step into the fire again.
"Let Hu Shui, Liu Ze, Ying and other generals assemble!"
After hurriedly getting off the sailboat, Zhang Qi gave orders one after another before he could catch his breath.
On the side, Hu Ling and other Wuhuan officials were already waiting for him.
Hu Ling wanted to say something else, but Zhang Qi pushed away the note about Wuhuan's recent situation handed over by Hu Ling and said coldly again.
"Can't you hear me?"
"promise!"
With Zhang Qi's cold shout, everyone present once again recalled the man they faced in the yurt during that severe cold winter.
Soon, General Hu Shui of the You Yi Army, General Liu Ze of the Huben Army, and General Ying of the Ying Attack Army came in a hurry.
"I have finally met your Majesty!"
"Get up."
"I received a secret message that the Xiongnu military official Shanyu has died. The various Xiongnu tribes will rush to Shanyu's court to welcome the next Shanyu to ascend the throne."
"Hu Shui!"
"The general is here!"
"Assemble 10,000 You Yi troops and rush to King Zuo Guli's headquarters. If Yi Zhixie can't make a choice, then help him!"
"The last general takes command!"
"Liu Ze!"
"The general is here!"
"Order all the remaining Tiger and Guard troops in the city to return to defend Xianbei and control the retreat of the Hun Prince Yu Shan. I just want him to die!"
"The last general takes command!"
"eagle!"
"The general is here!"
"Twenty thousand Eagle Strikers wear armor around the clock, never leave their bodies with their swords, and are always on guard against accidents!"
"The last general takes command!"
Zhang Qi raised his cold eyebrows and looked at the Wuhuan civil servants.
"You will mobilize all materials and support the armies' departure at any time!"
"Everyone! A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is right in front of you. I won't allow anyone to fall behind at the critical moment. Whoever dares to make a mistake, you all know my methods!"
"I will obey your order!"
"For your Majesty! A worthy death!"
months.
Zhang Qi, who returned to Wuhuan again, launched a thunderous maneuver.
City Lord's Mansion.
Zhang Qiduan sat in the upper position.
At this moment, he finally had the intention to look at the things he had pushed away before.
Hu Ling stood respectfully in the hall, her head lowered.
After a moment, Zhang Qi put the notes on the desk and sighed.
"The planning of the village is good. It encourages land reclamation. You can rent seeds, tools, and cattle and horses in the city. The tax exemption policy is also okay. But since it is exempted, then we should be generous and change the tax order. All new fields reclaimed by individuals , the ground rent will be completely exempted for the first two years, and the ground rent will be reduced by half for the next two years. After four years, the land tax will be collected at the rate of one ten tax."
