Chapter 288 Farewell
Chapter 288 Farewell
On the 500nd of the first month, that is, on the [-]nd of November, Dugu Shao was ordered to go to Liangzhou to garrison the fields for the Turks.She is already a Youlang general of the fifth rank, and she was released from the capital. She should be promoted, but unfortunately she is a daughter, and her appointment has been quite controversial.In the end, my mother still promoted Dugu Shao as a man, and ordered her to be Liangzhou Sima and Yingtian guerrilla general. Fighting army, self-recruited athletes expanded the original Chishui guards to [-] soldiers, fearing that she would be a daughter, the official position would not be high, and it would be unfavorable for the camp field, so he brought along military officials from the fourth rank.
Although this appointment was made only recently, I already knew about it, and worked hard on Hexi Army Town and Hedong Army Town: Liangzhou is called "the throat of five counties", and it is an important place in Hexi, from Xijing to the outside. There is nothing more important than Liangzhou in military affairs. In the early years, my father wanted to go to Liangzhou when he wanted to tour the west.Chishui Shouzhuo, which Dugu Shao inspected, was under the command of the Governor of Liangzhou and stationed in Dadouba Valley, so his mother changed his name to Dadoujun.Dadou Bagu was an important channel for Tuyuhun and Tubo to enter the bandits over the years. The terrain is very important. As long as there is no fault in the garrison in the past dynasties, more people will be promoted. Mother resisted all opinions and sent Dugu Shao to Liangzhou, and led the Dadou army. It can be seen There are still expectations for her—but it also makes her trip only successful, not failure.
According to the rules of this dynasty, the order was issued to leave Beijing on the day of the order, so Dugu Shao had already set off in strict preparations early in the morning of the second day.I was afraid of showing off, so I didn't see her off at Duting, so I dressed up as a light rider and waited outside the city at the restaurant she often went to. At noon, I saw smoke and dust billowing, and Dugu Shao came with his troops, and reined in the horse in front of the restaurant to ask for wine. I just saw me at that time, but I immediately clasped my fists together: "It's inconvenient to be present in the army, Erniang forgive me."
I immediately clasped my fists and said with a smile: "I'm also in casual clothes here. I don't talk about official business, I only talk about personal friendship." Seeing her wearing a silver helmet, military uniform, iron armor, soap boots, long knife, bow and arrow , and behind him are all riding fine horses, and there are hundreds of them under his command, but the banners are bright, the halberds are neat, and the actions are uniform. He is worried, proud, and envious, and he refuses to take Cui Mingde's gift. Hand it over, just throw the gift box over: "We'll give you a gift."
She looked at me with bright eyes: "Who are you? Is Cui Er also in there?"
I squinted at her and said deliberately, "Guess."
She will open it, and carefully take out the safety talisman, victory talisman, sewing kit, insect repellent pill, fragrant medicine, prescription, several bottles of plaster and medicinal wine, hand-painted sheepskin map, etc., and carefully read everything , held up a sewing kit, insect repellent pills, fragrant medicine, prescriptions, plasters, and medicinal wine, and said, "This is from Wei Sibei." Then he picked up a few charms and looked at it: "Is this what you begged for me? Looking at the sheepskin map again, he rubbed his hands slowly on it, and said with a smile: "This is from Cui Er."
Seeing that her guess was accurate, I snorted and said, "You must have recognized Cui Er's handwriting to know."
She caressed the map again, shook her head and said, "It's not Cui Er's handwriting, it's believed that she begged for it elsewhere—maybe it's the ancestors who once guarded the border." Seeing my curious eyes, she smiled Said: "Both Wei Si and Cui Er are more careful than you, and they usually consider things practically, and the things they send must be things that I can use. Wei Si doesn't often go to the front court. When communicating with ministers, if you can’t get such a picture, most of the things you can send are small things, and these objects are exquisitely made, which are not available to ordinary palace officials. I have considered all the plasters, thank her for me."
I said displeased: "Cui Er is familiar with the situation in Longyou and Hexi, and I am also familiar with the military situation on the front line, why didn't you guess it was me?" In all the storylines I know, isn't the one who gave the peace talisman the lover?How can I guess that it was given by me-although this guess is not wrong.
Dugu Shao just smiled: "I have an agreement with her, and I must return with meritorious service, that's why she gave me the map. As for the small things like the peace talisman, although the meaning is good, a person like her who is so cold may not be willing to put down her figure immediately ——It seems like your style." Because he got close when he spoke, he patted my shoulder again and said: "I knew you would come, and I have something to ask you." He took out a roll of paper from his sleeve, Handed it to me: "This is the list of us people." Seeing that I was puzzled, he grinned: "The imperial court originally had an example of recording names with stones. All those who died in battle were engraved with stones to commemorate and pay homage to them. Frequent incidents and lack of government soldiers, these things are a bit negligent. Although this time it is just farming, after all, the future is unknown, so I wrote a separate copy of the names, hometowns, and family backgrounds of the people who accompanied me this time. You, in case of any injury, you will know who to pay the pension when you come back, even if I die in battle—don’t worry, just say that if I die in battle—please give me relief for the families of these people Let the country have the name of treating its soldiers lightly."
I took the paper seriously, opened it, and saw that the first thing written was Liangzhou Sima, Yingtian Guerrilla General, and the school's Great Fighting Army Envoy Dugushao. "How do you know that I will come to see you off? What if I don't come?"
Dugu Shao didn't answer, he just looked solemn, and then said: "I will entrust this matter to you, don't forget it."
Seeing her like this, I also stopped smiling, and said seriously: "Don't worry." I ordered someone to take out a few bags: "In addition to those safety charms, I also prepared some things, which are not expensive, but they are used to cultivate fields. , the secrets of cultivation, and some formulas of medicine and hygiene, all of which I copied from the Secret Pavilion, and they were discussed and proved to be effective by the scholars. Might come in handy."
These days, knowledge of literature, history, arithmetic, law, agriculture, etc. are all passed down from generation to generation. No matter how knowledgeable the bureaucrats are, they have little to do with the common people. Therefore, when I compiled my own medical books, I wanted to systematize these knowledge The first is self-contained system, which is easy to quantify, and the second is concise and clear, so that everyone can learn and apply it, so the writing is very simple. When Ashao wants to join the army, he specially compiled a few sets of ballad formulas for her. I even copied a copy of the unfinished medical books, the important agricultural books I saw in the secret pavilion, the hygiene formulas in my mansion, some newly added formulas for wound treatment, and some popular folk songs about celestial phenomena and agricultural reclamation. To Asho.
I didn't hide these things from my mother, she was very grateful when she found out, besides the medical books, I also selected ministers to prepare another set of The World's Agricultural Books, and ordered to add all the current popular prescriptions in the medical books I edited. Among them, those with common diseases and easy-to-obtain medicines are awarded to prefectures and counties together with agricultural books, and the people are ordered.
The gift from me was right, Dugu Shao hurriedly ordered people to bring all the formulas in the books in front of him, just looking at the names, his eyes lit up, he got off the horse, and gave me a military salute: "Thank you! "
I was embarrassed by the trouble, and pulled the rein to avoid her salute: "You're welcome—this time, you must cherish it." Afraid of staying for a long time, we said goodbye to each other, and rode back to the city.
(I was wrong, I copied the remark foreshadowing again, today I rely on the message to make up for a little word count... Tomorrow I will post a part of the text so that the author has something to say to make up for everyone's subscription today...)
The author has something to say: the double update will be tomorrow night...um.
Dadouba Valley:
One is "Da Dou Pulling the Valley" or "Da Dou Valley".It is now the Biandukou pass road at the junction of Gansu and Qinghai provinces in the southeast of Minle County, Gansu.
Since ancient times, it has been a shortcut from Hexi Corridor in Gansu to Huangzhong in Qinghai. "Tongjian": In the fifth year of Sui Daye (609 A.D.), Emperor Yang returned from Zhangye (now Zhangye, Gansu) to the east. Too many people died of freezing, even horses and donkeys."
