Chapter 20 Painful Lu Lingqi
Even if there are high-yield grain crops, even if you can eat enough as long as you farm, there will always be some lazy people who are not farming and will have no food to eat if they don’t farm. What should I do? Then I have to go through some evil ways.
What is the simplest evil way?
Stealing the dog.
Going further?
That's a robbery.
If someone blocks the road and robs, it means that the local security is not good. Under poor security, officials will generally be held accountable or even investigated. However, some treacherous officials will regard these robbers as stepping stones for their promotion and wealth.
After the robbers were solved, the local area was peaceful, and officials would no longer have the possibility of rapid promotion, so some officials simply raised a group of bandits themselves, letting these bandits cause harm to the side, and then sent people to suppress the bandits themselves. Then, these bandits were asked to hide for a while, and the officials could say that I had beaten the bandits away and that there would be no trouble here in the future.
Wow! If you have a great achievement, the person above will write it to you in your small notebook. If you free up some positions in the future, your achievements in suppressing bandits will become a stepping stone for your rise.
There are always such despicable villains in the officialdom who can sacrifice anything for himself.
Zuo Xiaoyou didn't have the time to care about those things. After returning to Nanpi, because Nanpi had become his territory, Zuo Xiaoyou simply set up his own small kingdom in Nanpi.
Although I have been in Jingzhou for a long time, the recipe for Hero Wine is still only in Nanpi, and many advanced facilities are also developed in Nanpi's underground factories.
Zuo Xiaoyou knew from the beginning that Nanpi had too many things that were shameful, so after completely controlling Nanpi, he kept mobilizing the masses to dig tunnels.
Nanpi is located in the North China Plain. What is the most famous thing in North China during the Anti-Japanese War? Yes, it is tunnel warfare.
From the Ranzhuang in Qingyuan, Baoding, to continuous development, from a single hiding to an underground fortification that can fight, hide, waterproof, fire and virus-proof, and gradually formed an authentic network of houses, streets, and villages, forming internal and external defenses, mutual cooperation, and attacking the enemy. The Hebei-Central Plain, which has no firmness, becomes an important area to block the Japanese invading army.
Zuo Xiaoyou was born in North China and grew up in North China, so he naturally heard many stories about tunnel warfare. However, after the end of the Anti-Japanese War, many tunnels in North China disappeared among the common people, and Zuo Xiaoyou himself had never seen them.
But not seeing it does not mean that it has not been studied. What's more, in real life, the government has also built many underground air raid shelters, many mysterious underground military industries, tunnels, etc., and some are combined with the current fortification level of this era. When Zuo Xiaoyou was the prefect of Nanpi, he summoned a large number of migrant workers to excavate underground projects according to the terrain he surveyed.
Now there is a very mysterious industrial base underground in Nanpi. Relying on a huge commercial network, it gathers wealth all over the world and thus has advanced industrial infrastructure.
At present, there is still a shortage of people. Zuo Xiaoyou vigorously promotes schools in Jingzhou in order to cultivate enough talents and develop faster with talents. Tens of millions of high-end talents in digital, physics and chemistry, and tens of millions of farmers are completely different concepts.
Since Yuan Shao sent Zuo Xiaoyou back to Nanpi for retirement, Zuo Xiaoyou simply started his own business in Nanpi. Not only did the most advanced primary schools, junior high schools, high schools, and universities be established, but the disciples taught in the past years have also been devoted to it.
After years of commercial development, Nanpi has gathered more and more migrant populations. The total population has now exceeded 1 million, and the Han Dynasty has only more than 40 million people. This has led to an increase in population density in Nanpi, which is a bit nervous in housing, and various public security tensions.
However, the students on Zuo Xiaoyou are still very skilled. Under their governance, Nanpi is in good overall condition and has developed business, but the housing is a bit tight. In addition, Nanpi is very close to the tributary of the Yellow River. Although the canals and ditches have been sorted out, the sewer facilities are a little unable to keep up. Once heavy rainstorms occur, the whole city will easily be flooded.
In this case, Zuo Xiaoyou put the agenda on Nanpi's entire urban planning.
In fact, Zuo Xiaoyou can build the entire city with his own strength, but what else is it? It’s great to enjoy the rules of each world and complete your own sorting tasks under the rules of the world.
When Zuo Xiaoyou was working hard to develop Nanpi, Lu Lingqi lived a very painful life in Bingzhou.
After Yuan Shao ascended the throne this year, Zuo Xiaoyou personally sent Yan to Bingzhou to reunite their mother and daughter. However, Lu Lingqi had just gained a foothold in the Bingzhou army at that time, and the sweeping of foreign races in Youzhou caused a large number of foreign races in Northeast China to run to Bingzhou, which put a lot of pressure on Bingzhou's national defense.
Under such circumstances, as a soldier, Lu Lingqi naturally has a busy military service and has little rest time. She has to fight with the grassland aliens in almost three to five days, and she has no time to settle the Yan family.
In this case, after Lu Lingqi and Yan met in a hurry, they asked Zuo Xiaoyou to take Yan back. Although Yan was used to being alone, Bingzhou was really unsafe. At least Zuo Xiaoyou could ensure that Yan was safe and sound, which also allowed Lu Lingqi to devote herself to the army.
In desperation, the Yan family had to follow Zuo Xiaoyou back to Luoyang and continue to live in the Duke of Nanpi. However, after Zuo Xiaoyou was demoted to Nanpi by Yuan Shao, Zuo Xiaoyou took Yan to Nanpi.
There is no way to go back in Luoyang for a long time.
After no longer having the trouble of her family, Lu Lingqi grew up rapidly on the battlefield in Bingzhou. Although she was a woman, she quickly gained a great reputation in Bingzhou with her force that exceeded 90.
Since Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others left Bingzhou, Bingzhou has never produced any extremely powerful military generals. Now, only Hao Zhao and Hao Bodao are still pretty good in Bingzhou.
However, Hao Zhao is a general who is very good at defending the city. Although his wisdom is not 90, he is still at a higher position above 80. As for force, he is almost in his early 80s. Therefore, Bingzhou has been bullied by northern alien races in recent years. Many alien races went to the Central Plains to rob, and basically took the passage in Bingzhou.
But since Lu Lingqi came, she has killed several fierce battles on the battlefield, especially in an encounter, killing six generals of the alien race, making the alien race tremble with courage. It was also a great victory that the Bingzhou Army had not had for a long time.
Zuo Xiaoyou also spent a lot of effort on Lu Lingqi. The horse that Lu Lingqi rode now was a sweat-blooded horse that Zuo Xiaoyou specially asked for from Yuan Shao. It was blood-red all over, not much worse than the red rabbit.
Lu Lingqi's cloak and weapons were all as well-behaved as Lu Bu at Hulao Pass back then, but only a size smaller. Lu Lingqi practiced her father's halberd technique since she was a child, so after Lu Lingqi appeared on the battlefield in Bingzhou, some older grassland aliens saw this outfit and shouted in horror: "The Han family is back!"
Lu Bu is at the peak of his life, and his military value of 100 is unrivaled, but Lu Bu is also a step by step to become an unparalleled general. At that time, Lu Bu's military value in Bingzhou was only more than 90, which was not much higher than Lu Lingqi now. Moreover, Lu Bu did not have a red rabbit horse at that time, but Lu Lingqi now had a sweat-blooded BMW.
Therefore, Lu Lingqi's power was no less than that of Lu Bu back and forth on the battlefield. In this case, Lu Lingqi quickly gained the title of female flying general.
But the female flying general is not a real flying general. On the battlefield, Lu Bu has the unique temperament of a wolf, fierce and cruel, and will never show mercy to the enemy. However, Lu Lingqi grew up next to Zuo Xiaoyou and studied literature and martial arts. She has a strong cultural atmosphere and lacks the necessary cruelty on the battlefield.
So after more than a dozen battles, when Lu Lingqi raided a tribe on the grassland, she let a teenage boy go because of her soft heart. As a result, the little boy attracted more aliens on the grassland, causing Lu Lingqi's troops to suffer major casualties. More than a thousand people were gone, and when she came back, there were only less than fifty left.
This was a major psychological blow to Lu Lingqi and a major battlefield baptism. However, Lu Lingqi has not come out of that shadow at the moment. She has been very depressed during this period, unable to eat or sleep. As long as she closes her eyes, her mind is filled with the tragic situation of the dead soldiers and generals at that time.
It was at this time that Zuo Xiaoyou received a letter from his Bingzhou student, informing him of Lu Lingqi's current situation in detail.
After reading it, Zuo Xiaoyou took Yan to Jiuyuan, Bingzhou.
Jiuyuan is north of the Great Wall, and there is no natural danger. Lu Lingqi's father Lu Bu was born here. He has experienced fighting on the grassland since he was a child, so he cultivated the first god general as brave as Lu Bu. At this time, Lu Lingqi was in a house in Jiuyuan, and she was greeting her mother and Zuo Xiaoyou with a pale face.
However, it was not seen for half a year, but Lu Lingqi lost a lot of weight, which made Yan feel very distressed.
"Mother, I'm fine." Lu Lingqi smiled and said, "We haven't seen each other for half a year. Wait for my daughter to buy some food..."
"No need." Zuo Xiaoyou moved a pile of meat and vegetables out of the carriage and said, "You mother and daughter have a good chat, I'll go cook."
Lu Lingqi blinked: "Are you cooking?"
"Have you ever seen a man cook?" Zuo Xiaoyou smiled faintly: "Where is the kitchen?"
“The cottage on the right.”
When Zuo Xiaoyou went to cook, Yan and Lu Lingqi sat on the wooden bed in the room. Yan held his daughter's thin hand and tears were flowing with heartache.
Because Lu Lingqi has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, her palms are thick and not good-looking. However, although Lu Lingqi's hands are very big now, they are no longer thick. Lu Lingqi is 1.78 meters tall. She weighs 140 kilograms half a year ago, but now she is definitely less than 100 kilograms.
She is a little skinny.
Thinking of the suffering his daughter suffered over the past few days, Yan burst into tears: "Lingqi, you have suffered."
"Mother, I'm not suffering." Lu Lingqi comforted: "Aren't I pretty good?"
"Where's the best?" Yan wiped his tears: "Look at how thin you are."
"Oh! I'm fine, don't cry." Although Lu Lingqi has experienced a lot, she is just an 18-year-old girl after all, and she can act coquettishly in front of her mother. Under Lu Lingqi's coquettishness, Yan finally stopped her tears, took her hand, and said, "Lingqi, don't stay in Bingzhou, go back to Nanpi with her mother!"
Lu Lingqi was silent.
"Lingqi..." Yan's tears fell again: "Mom has only one daughter like you. Do you have the heart to be alone?"
"Mom, I..." Lu Lingqi pursed her lips tightly. As long as she remembered those robes that didn't have to die when fighting with her, Lu Lingqi's heart was like a knife: "I..."
"Don't leave if you don't want to leave." Zuo Xiaoyou walked in with the hot pot, boiling charcoal in the hot pot, and the water slowly heated up.
"Sir." Yan wiped his tears and stood up.
"What is this?" Lu Lingqi looked at the hot pot with charcoal, her eyes full of curiosity.
"Hotpot." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "If you have any words, let's talk about it later, and have a meal first."
It was the first time Zuo Xiaoyou moved hot pot to this world. After seeing the letter, he knew that what Lu Lingqi needs most now is to take care of her body, so Zuo Xiaoyou specially made a hot pot and some other cooking utensils to bring to Bingzhou.
After seeing Lu Lingqi's appearance today, he knew that he was not prepared wrongly. Lu Lingqi really needed to be properly conditioned.
What do people with insufficient qi and blood eat? Of course it is mutton. Lamb is the most nourishing qi and blood, and hot pot is very appetizing and is the best choice for modern home travel and gathering with friends.
However, the most important thing about mutton sauté is dipping sauce. Whether mutton sauté is delicious or not has a direct relationship with whether the dipping sauce is good or not.
Of course, this is not a problem for Zuo Xiaoyou. After teaching Yan and Lu Lingqi how to eat, the mother and daughter could not stop after taking a bite.
In several months, Lu Lingqi has had her first full stomach and even had a stomachache.
"I didn't expect the hot pot to be so delicious." Lu Lingqi rubbed her stomach and leaned against the bed, not thinking about getting up.
Yan was also wiping the fragrant sweat and said, "My lord is really clever. This is the best delicacy that I have ever eaten in this life."
Zuo Xiaoyou smiled, made a pot of hot tea, and chatted with the mother and daughter while drinking.
I didn’t talk about anything, I just chatted casually, and it was more about trivial matters in life. As I chatted, Lu Lingqi’s tears fell.
She has been so relaxed and comfortable for a long time. She was so touched that she burst into tears after just a simple family matter.
Yan comforted his daughter in a hurry. Zuo Xiaoyou looked at her, whispered with hot tea, "I'm very guilty, very painful!"
Lu Lingqi said nothing, but shed more tears.
"This is the battlefield." Zuo Xiaoyou took a sip of tea and said, "You are alive and dead, and there is no morality at all. Therefore, there is a saying in the officialdom that you are kind and merciless. You don't want to kill a ten-year-old child, but you will kill your comrades. This is the battlefield, and a merciless heart will cause a catastrophe."
"It was me... it was me who harmed them. It was all my fault. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't..." Lu Lingqi lost control of her emotions and cried bitterly.
