Please ask me to be the emperor

As the saying goes, "You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when you are not a family member." Huang Lai'er, the "general", used to have the Xing family in charge of the house and himself in charge of the outside. He only focused on fighting and fighting, and did not worry about the affairs of the camp.

Now that Mr. Xing has passed away, Huang Lai'er is still busy outside and has never paid attention to the affairs of the Wu'an camp. Who would have thought that after returning here, everything has changed, and problems that I had not dealt with before have emerged one after another.

In the past, Mrs. Xing was the head of the camp, and everything was well organized, whether it was the purchase of supplies or the accounting of incoming and outgoing items. Now when "Chuang Jiang" inquired, he found that one had two heads. In their own camp, there was a shocking shortage of rice and noodles. Fruits, vegetables, meat and eggs were either insufficient or rotten. For a while, they could not even prepare a banquet to entertain guests.

Huang Lai'er, the "Running General", was shocked when he heard this. He quickly said goodbye to the second master "Zijin Liang" and Zhang Shun and others, and went to check it out personally with his nephew "Yi Hu".

When we arrived at the warehouse, we found that there were only dozens of bags of grain left piled in a corner, and some of the bags had been chewed to pieces by rats. As for fruits and vegetables, it was winter and they were in short supply. The few that were left were dry and it was unknown whether they were moldy or not. Fortunately, there are still a few hams intact and barely edible.

There was no choice but to order the cook to pack up the rice and noodles and cook them together to fill the stomachs of his soldiers. He picked up the rest of the fruits, vegetables and ham and used them together. He made a few dishes first to show his face. .

Then, he ordered his nephew "Yi Hu" to take people down the mountain quickly, and regardless of stealing or kidnapping, he quickly found some ingredients so that the second master, Zhang Shun and others could eat well.

"Jiang Jiang" Huang Lai'er worked hard for a long time before running back exhausted. It turned out that the second boss "Zijin Liang" and Zhang Shun were looking at each other and staring at the food on the table.

"Chang Jiang" quickly advised: "Eat, eat, eat, you're welcome! When you come to Huang Lai'er's camp, you will feel like your own home! Everything in my camp is busy, why do you two have to wait for me to take my chopsticks?"

Huang Lai'er had been busy for a long time, and he was also hungry. After saying this, he was ready to take down his chopsticks and take a few bites. Zhang Shun didn't know when he saw him, so he quickly stopped Huang Lai'er and said, "Brother Huang, maybe you don't know. I just heard from the second master that there are some taboos about opening a banquet!"

"Since ancient times, good things come in pairs, not in singles. Here are three dishes, commonly known as 'decapitation dishes'. Only the beheaded person is treated like this. We should wait for the chef to serve another dish before we start eating. !”

"Champion" Huang Lai'er was surprised when he heard this. It turned out that there was such a truth. He thought carefully about the fact that he had been imprisoned before, and it seemed that he had also eaten similar prison food. Fortunately, Xing brought other rebels to rescue him. This is the legendary "guillotine".

"Chuang Jiang" Huang Lai'er was rude after hearing this and said: "Huang is ignorant, so he still said this." He quickly asked the cook to bring another dish.

The cook was helpless and hurriedly sliced ​​the ham and cooked it together. Then he cut it into thin slices with a knife, added some sesame oil, and put it on the table as a cold dish. Everyone raised their glasses and started eating and drinking.

Regardless of good or bad, everyone finally had enough to eat and drink. Huang Lai'er, the "general", breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself: Finally, I got through the test.

As a result, before taking a break, the second-in-command "Purple Gold Liang" drunkenly said to Zhang Shun: "This Huang Lai'er is not a good man, but he is so stingy!"

"How do you say this?" Although Zhang Shun was not very satisfied with the meal, he would not follow the lead anyway.

"This banquet pays attention to the eight cold and eight hot ones, with a combination of meat and vegetables, and all kinds of chicken, fish, meat and eggs. Today's banquet is a patchwork of things. It's very makeshift. It shows that I feel sorry for us to eat and drink. I will leave early tomorrow morning and won't disturb you anymore. This person is pure.”

Zhang Shun heard this and thought this was indeed the truth. He remembered that there were people like this in his previous life. They did not welcome guests to the door, but deliberately did not entertain them well in order to drive them away. He also quickly agreed: "What the second master said is true. I am also quite worried about the Xishan camp. I will also say goodbye tomorrow and go back to the camp to have a look."

The two of them had discussed and decided to visit Huang Lai'er, the "Admiral", on the next day. He said that he had something to do today and it was not convenient to stay for a long time. The mountains are high and the rivers are long. See you later!

"Jiang Jiang" Huang Lai'er enthusiastically stayed with them for a long time, but when he saw that they really left, he reluctantly agreed.

So the second leader "Zijinliang" went west to the Licheng County camp, and Zhang Shun returned north to the Xishan camp in Lincheng County.

Zhang Shun traveled for two days and arrived at the Xishan camp. Zhang Shenyan, who was stationed at the camp, quickly greeted him personally. When he saw Zhang, he said by the way: "General, it's a disaster! Please come into the camp and discuss it in detail."

Zhang Shun's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Zhang Shenyan was a prudent man and would not say such words in public that would shake the morale of the military. He quickly entered the camp, arranged his troops properly, met with his generals and staff at the Chinese army's tent, and asked: "Father, what do you say?"

Zhang Shenyan quickly explained the whole story. It turned out that since the fierce general Cao Wenzhao entered the Jin Dynasty, he defeated the rebels in Wutai, Yuxian, Shouyang and other places.

At this time, Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, and Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, had returned from the capital. In order to avoid another situation like the rebels harassing the capital, Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, appointed Cao Wenzhao to garrison Pingding Prefecture to defend the eastern part of Taiyuan; Zhang Yingchang to garrison Fenzhou to defend the western part of Taiyuan. Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, led his troops to garrison in Taiyuan to coordinate with them.

This Pingding Prefecture is not elsewhere, but to the west of Lincheng County. Leping County under its jurisdiction borders Lincheng County. Suddenly, Zhang Shun's Xishan camp became dangerous.

Zhang Shun also heard about Cao Wenzhao's reputation in later generations. However, he defeated Lu Xiangsheng and Zuo Liangyu, who had heard about it a little bit. Zhang Shun also became a little inflated and asked: "This Cao Wenzhao is so big." How does your reputation compare with Lu Xiangsheng and Zuo Liangyu?"

Zhang Shenyan was silent for a moment and said honestly: "Lu Xiangsheng is a scholar and is leading an army for the first time. I don't know the depth of it. Zuo Liangyu's flattery is just a handyman under Hou Xun's family. How can he compare to someone who has experienced hundreds of battles?"

"This man originally joined the army in Liaodong and was promoted to a guerrilla general through meritorious service. Later, he fought against the Northern Barbarians many times and made great contributions and was promoted. When the civil uprising in Shaanxi became unstoppable, he was ordered to lead the Guanning Army to conquer and kill the rebels. There are countless leaders. Therefore, because of his great reputation, the general must not underestimate this person."

When Zhang Shun heard this, his scalp went numb immediately, and he quickly asked: "What do you think?"

Zhang Shun's staff and generals immediately talked about fighting, defending, or avoiding. Zhang Shun simply said in one sentence: "The officers and soldiers are powerful, and Cao Wen's imperial edict may be in vain. Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, and Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, count the time and it is almost time to return to Shanxi. If we stick to this place, I am afraid that the officers and soldiers will Once they attack, we will be unable to resist."

"Why don't we abandon this camp, return to Shanxi, and continue to camp with the second master, Zijin Liang, so that everyone can be taken care of."
