Chapter 149 Sadness and joy
When one person’s ideas are inconsistent with everyone else, either he is a sage, or he is a saint, of course, he may also be a time traveler!
As a time traveler, the theories that have been tested by practice cannot be compared with them, and they have to make adjustments against their will. This is the most helpless thing... It seems that no matter what you do, it is best to be able to make a big skin and become a tiger flag. Only by seizing the highest point of theory and morality can you do more with half the effort.
After the Buddha in the center of the city poured concrete, it was time for the craftsmen invited from all over the country to perform. They had to beautify the appearance of the Buddha, paint and loosen gold powder before the cement was completely hardened. Otherwise, it would be the same as the stone in three to five days, and it would take the boss's effort.
According to Han Zhongwei's request, outsiders should not be allowed to see the Buddha before it is unveiled, otherwise it will not cause strong effects to others. Therefore, the scaffolding beside the Buddha is covered with a layer of black cloth, and the craftsmen inside are busy day and night. Even at night, when the lights are lit inside, the people outside can only see the hazy shadows. If you want to see the true face of Mount Lu, you have to wait until the day when the Buddha is consecrated.
Ma Wanli now reports to Han Zhongwei every day, and every day the progress of the city wall and the Buddha will come to the Marquis' Mansion to report at 100 o'clock. Now Ma Wanli mainly grasps these two things and does not care about the others. The establishment of the Public Security Bureau has also freed him from many trivial matters. Otherwise, if anyone loses a chicken and has a duck, he will come to the yamen to sue. As a prefect, he will still be promoted to the court to ask for a case, and he will not be able to do anything.
"Marty, it will take only five days at most, and the Buddha will be completed." As the project progressed smoothly, Ma Wanli also always showed a spring breeze-like smile on his face. Once this matter was done, Ma Wanli would not be famous for his generation, but he should also be a famous young man in history as the manager. There is no reason why he is not excited.
"Have all the monks from all over the world come?" Han Zhongwei smiled and said lightly.
"All one hundred and eight monks arrived. They all lived in temples outside the city, and Lord Ding also sent people to protect them." Ma Wanli said that these 108 monks were the limit of being invited around the Black City. Han Zhongwei assigned him the task of making the Great Buddha a grand day with glory. There is no need to worry about the cost, just to make the more lively, the better.
Originally, there were less than a thousand stakes of copper coins in the warehouse of the Heicheng Prefect. If you don’t talk about building the city wall and building the Buddha, you will have to catch them blindly if you have to spend a few horses thousands of miles. As you like, the Marquis’ Mansion will be building the capital, but I don’t know why the emperor let the Marquis live in his own fiefdom this time. This seems to have never happened in the history of Xixia.
If you come to the fief, just come to the fief, but the court neither said to establish a government office nor allocated additional money and food. Ma Wanli was worried. He had written documents to the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works because of this matter, but it was like a rock sinking into the sea and there was no further information.
But after the Marquis moved to the backyard of his yamen, Ma Wanli's waist was much straightened. The reason was that there was no such thing as the warehouse was sufficient. Ma Wanli still remembered the scene at that time. Zhang Zhongtong from Dake Cement Factory led dozens of carriages to the warehouse and said that he would come to deliver money and grain at the order of the Marquis. Ma Wanli was still full of doubts at the time, but when he saw dozens of carriages of copper coins being pulled into the warehouse, all doubts disappeared without a trace.
"I have been troubled by the common people recently, so I have been helpless. Lord Ma went to see these monks for me." Han Zhongwei saw Yan Shouyi outside the door protruding his head, so he picked up the tea bowl and said to Ma Wanli.
I still know that I can serve tea and send guests to Wanli. It is also something he can't ask for to talk about Buddhism with those eminent monks. Almost everyone in the city believes in Buddhism. If they let them know that they talk about Buddhism with 108 eminent monks, their image will be much taller invisibly.
"What's the matter?" As soon as Ma Wanli left, Han Zhongwei waved to Yan Shouyi to come in.
"General Bi asked for a meeting urgently." Yan Shouyi said quickly. He now returned to his original mentality, because since he made things difficult for Ding Chuan, the Marquis gave him the Marquis token to those close to him. As long as the Marquis is in the mansion, they can see the Marquis at any time.
Although Han Zhongwei did not make things difficult for Yan Shouyi because of Ding's "thing", and did not even say a word of blame, Yan Shouyi quickly felt that he had acted too much last time. He immediately adjusted his mindset and set his position right. When he met Han Zhongwei's old friend, he was extremely obedient.
"Let him come in." Han Zhongwei wondered. Could it be that he had wiped out another group of bandits?
The last time the Shazhou horse bandits were achieved under the leadership of Bi Zaiyu. There were only more than 100 Shazhou horse bandits, and they were all caught in one go. Of course, it did not mean that everyone was killed. Bi Zaiyu knew that the cement factory needed labor, so he brought the surrendered horse bandits back.
"I've seen the Marquis." Bi Zaiyu did not wear formal armor and only wore leather regular clothes.
"Didn't you say that you and I are different from others. Just call him a young master in private." Han Zhongwei saw Bi Zaiyu saluting, and quickly stood up. He knew very well what kind of person Bi Zaiyu was. He would not say that this person is not his subordinate yet. He could only say that he was "on-job" and training here, so he would become a generation of war gods. Han Zhongwei dared not underestimate him. Therefore, Han Zhongwei was very polite to him and wanted to win over him with all his might.
"The courtesy cannot be abolished. I am now bringing the Marquis' soldiers and eating the Marquis' salary. I have to be loyal to the Marquis." Bi Zaiyu was able to leave a reputation in history. Obviously, he was a person who was strict with himself and persistent. If he had no principles, he would not be able to lead the army and fight a good battle.
"Okay, what should I see me urgently?" Han Zhongwei couldn't convince Bi Zaiyu every time. It was better in the past, but he was just a clerk. In private, Bi Zaihuang regarded him as a peer. Now Han Zhongwei's identity is special, Bi Zai's blood blade will pass again. Something will happen." Bi Zaiyu said. He was not very clear about Han Zhongwei's Black Wind Village. But now there are more and more people from Yingzhou around Han Zhongwei. After Bi Zaiyu asked a little, he soon learned the details.
He never expected that Han Zhongwei, who was from Lin'an, would have such an adventure in Zhongyuan. In his opinion, Yingzhou belonged to the Jin Kingdom. Therefore, he did not reject the identity of Han Zhongwei, the leader of the village, just like Han Zhongwei's pseudonym Zhongwei and became a marquis in Xixia. In his opinion, it was not that the officials granted by the Song Dynasty court were as light as feathers. According to the current saying, there was no value in value.
"It's great. All their people live in the cement factory first. I'll be of great use then." Han Zhongwei was overjoyed. He was always short of people and had insufficient staff. Now when the people from Heifeng Village arrive, they only play without war. Han Zhongwei believes that he can handle it easily.
"Yes, will these people practice with the guards after they arrive?" Bi Zaiyu said. Now he has no one in his hands, otherwise he would not have transferred the guards around Han Zhongwei.
"Of course. Except for a few leaders, the rest of the people are temporarily assigned to the escort." Han Zhongwei nodded. Of course, he was joining the escort when he came to Heicheng. Could it be that he opened a branch of Heifeng Village in Heicheng?
"Now don't worry about the safety of the cement factory." Bi Zaiyu laughed. Now there are less than 100 guards in the cement factory, but the importance of the cement factory is getting stronger and stronger. With the two offsets, even those who meet Bi Zaiyu have a headache.
"These people also practiced basic training when they were in Yingzhou, but the quality is certain. You will include all qualified people in the guard team. Those who are not suitable will be given to Ding Chuan and placed in the Public Security Bureau." Han Zhongwei said. He was not very clear about the abilities of these people, but loyalty should be reliable.
"Please rest assured, the soldiers under the general will never lose your face." Bi Zaiyu said respectfully. Heicheng is not suitable for recruiting soldiers now, and now he has very few soldiers. Since the people in Heifeng Village can be bandits, their health should be OK. As long as they are not disabled, they can train them to qualified soldiers. "If they want to poach people from their hands, they have to have a few more daydreams.
"You just said that something might happen to the Shahan Ma bandits? Didn't Yu Zhi have been penetrated by thousands of arrows? What are the consequences?" Han Zhongwei frowned. The bandit capital was dead. What else could there be trouble? "Is it Yu Zhi's mother?"
"The Marquis knew that Wanli was Du Ernie, and I blamed me for being soft-hearted for a while, and now I will suffer endless troubles." Bi Zaiyu sighed and said.
Yu Zhi's mother, Du Erniang, believed in Buddhism and recited scriptures every day. When her nest was captured by Bi Zai, she naturally stayed at her desk.
Because this matter did not pass through the Heicheng Prefect's Office, Bi Zaiyu had the right to proprietorize these prisoners. According to the original practice, they were all sent to the gravel yard of the cement factory for labor reform.
Du Erniang is old, weak, sick and disabled, and chanting Buddhist scriptures is OK, but it is absolutely impossible to let her use a hammer to smash the stone. On the first day, she injured her instep. Bi Zai saw her pitiful, and since she believed in Buddhism, she must have a kind heart, and when she felt weak, she let her go. I think she was old, so she let her die outside. It was B
Unexpectedly, after Du Erniang left the cement factory, she heard from somewhere that Yu Zhi had died, her only hope was gone. No matter whether she believed in Buddhism or Taoism, she immediately revealed her true face. She wanted to avenge her son!
With Du Erniang's old and handsome appearance, it was obviously a luxury to avenge Yu Zhi. But Du Erniang was not alone. She was originally a bandit family. Her eldest brother Du Jiwu was the second in charge of Daolangshan. Du Erniang finally found Du Jiwu after going through a lot of hardships. She cried to the eldest brother about his nephew's tragic death.
I don’t know whether it was because of the deep feelings of the Du brothers or whether Du Jiwu was a kind person who was actually ready to avenge his nephew. Daolang Mountain is no better than the Shazhou Horse Bandits, and they have thousands of people. It is a famous bandits in the Mongolian border.
"How is Du Jiwu going to avenge his nephew?" Han Zhongwei asked after listening to the description of the meeting again.
"Heicheng probably won't attack yet, so he has only one goal." Bi Zaiyu said confidently.
"You said it was a cement factory?" Han Zhongwei asked. No wonder he would be so happy when he heard that there were hundreds of people stationed in the cement factory.
"Ten." Bi Zaiyu said that there were only one hundred guards in the cement factory. If Du Jiwu really brought people to attack, the one hundred guards would protect the cement factory. However, only defending but not attacking is definitely not Bi Zaiyu's personality. What's more, he is facing a group of bandits, so he would be a turtle that shrank his head, so he might as well kill him directly.
"What are your good plans?" Han Zhongwei asked.
"Now the cement factory has hundreds of more people. As long as they don't go out in full, they can handle it with ease. At that time, another team will be sent to Heicheng, and the inside and outside will be combined, kill them without leaving any armor." Bi Zaiyu sneered. The cement factory has a very strong defense ability. As early as the construction of the factory, Han Zhongwei had ordered that the cement produced by the cement factory will be used for self-made construction and defense. In addition, Han Zhongwei's secret weapon can be said that as long as Du Jiwu dares to come, he will definitely get a slight shock.
"What if they set their target in Black City?" Han Zhongwei asked again.
"Then there is no need to worry. With the current city defense of Heicheng, a group of mobs in Daolang Mountain is a group of mobs. Xiao Jie died and said again. As long as the people from Daolang Mountain are rouge and Wuzhou water, they will avoid it when facing the city with high walls.
"When will the people from Daolangshan take action?" Han Zhongwei thought that the great Buddha in Heicheng will be consecrated in a few days, and then there will definitely be a crowd of people. If the bandits from Daolangshan take the opportunity to sneak in, it will be a big problem.
"It should be a few days left." Bi Zaiyu said.
"Yan Shouyi, go and call Ding Chuan quickly." Han Zhongwei thought of the consecration of Dingguang Buddha in a few days. His heart moved. If the people from Daolang Mountain sneaked into the Black City there and then took action together, the number of people in the city is really not enough now.
"Marty, are you worried about the consecration of the Dingguang Buddha?" Bi Zaiyu was also a spiritual person. As soon as he heard Han Zhongwei's instructions, he could immediately think of the general idea.
"Five days later, the Buddha in the city will be unveiled, and then 108 monks will consecrate them all. If the people of Daolang Mountain take this opportunity, the consequences will be unimaginable. Han Zhongwei said anxiously that by then, the Black City will definitely be full of people. Even if hundreds of bandits sneak into Daolang Mountain, it will be enough to drink a pot by yourself.
Ding Chuan soon came to the Hou Mansion. When he heard that Yu Zhizhi was still frowning before he could get rid of the troubles. He is now in charge of the Public Security Bureau, of course he hopes that the more peaceful the city, the better. Unfortunately, things went against his wishes. Not only did the foreign population in the city increase, but all forces sent people to come and find out the news. Now that there is a sword wolf mountain, Ding Chuan feels sweating profusely when he thinks about it.
Now Ding Chuan understands why the Marquis wanted to block the Lexun of Zhi and Niu San. What was the biggest thing about Heicheng during this period? The consecration of Dingguang Buddha! This matter is related to the Marquis' long-term plan to govern Heicheng. If he loses the big picture due to a small loss, he will be very guilty.
"General Bi, who is the one who has good luck to keep the people from Daolangshan out of the city?" Ding Chuan knew that as long as the bandits from Daolangshan entered the city, he would have to become two big ones with one head.
"I have no other good way to destroy them now." Bi Zaiyu touched his nose and said helplessly. This happened because of him. It seemed that he had saved a life at the beginning, but in fact it laid the root of disaster.
"Are you familiar with the terrain of Daolang Mountain?" Han Zhongwei felt aroused, and he suddenly thought of a follower. Maybe he could help.
"Daolang Mountain is located on the border between Mongolia and Heicheng. It belongs to Heicheng to the south and to Mongolia to the north. Daolang Mountain looks like a knife, and it is extremely junyu. The bandits of Daolang Mountain live on the hillside." Bi Zaiyu has been suppressing bandits outside before, so he has also inspected Daolang Mountain.
"What about the passage to go up and down the mountain? Xiao Han Zhongwei has already brought the Heicheng topographic map. Although it is very simple, it also indicates Daolang Mountain. It seems that this mountain is very famous.
"There is only one road that can be seen in countless small roads." Bi Zaiyu said, the bandits in Daolangshan are all horse bandits. If there is no horse, they will not be able to harm them at all.
"Bi Ai, you will immediately bring enough mines to Daolang Mountain and use mines to seal the road of Daolang Mountain. Just drag it for three or five days, and after the Dingguang Buddha in the city is consecrated, even if the bandits from Daolang Mountain don't come to provoke me, they will have to be cleaned up." Han Zhongwei slapped the table and said.
"This plan is great. You can block thousands of bandits on Daolang Mountain without much manpower. The trails on Daolang Mountain are not suitable for horse riding. If I have time, I will block all the roads to Heicheng." Bi Zaiyu laughed.
"Don't just stop blocking others. All mines must be marked in detail. Don't blow yourself up at that time." Han Zhongwei chuckled. Fortunately, there are mines. Daolang Mountain is less than a day away from Black City to ride a horse. Now there are still five days before the consecration of Dingguang Buddha. I guess they won't go down the mountain so quickly.
After Han Zhongwei said that he would use landmines to block the downhill passage of Daolangshan, Bi Zaiyu knew that this was the most suitable strategy for Weijin. Only by preventing the people of Daolangshan from going down the mountain can he be free to deal with them after the most lively day in Black City.
Although Bi Zaiyu claimed to be a good general of his generation, he found that many times he had never entered martial arts at that age. He heard that Fu Zhongwei, who had not read much as a military strategy, was better than himself at some point.
That night, Bi Zaiyu braved the cold and led people to take enough landmines to Daolangshan. This time, Bi Zaiyu knew that if he made another mistake, he would not only feel guilty, but also afraid that other subordinates of Han Zhongwei would look down on him. Bi Zaiyu met a generation of good generals. If he almost ruined Han Zhongwei's major affairs because of his private release, this matter is worthy of my life.
Although Bi Zaiyu took people to set off overnight, Han Zhongwei did not dare to relax his fear. He asked Ding Chuan to mobilize all the joint defense team members and spies to closely monitor the every move of everyone in the Black City. As long as he found someone making trouble, he would immediately eliminate it in the bud.
The next day, everyone from Heifeng Village in Yingzhou went to the cement factory. Wu Di, Liu Qing, Guo Shoucheng and others all came to Heicheng to meet Han Zhongwei.
"Keep the marquis!"
The Xixia etiquette learned from Zhang Zhongtong overnight made the movements of the few of them uniformly. "It's all my brothers, there's no need to give such a big gift. Come and give you a seat to tea." Han Zhongwei smiled. He came forward and helped Wu Di and others up, and Han Zhongwei saw the fog in their eyes nearby. Ha, it's really easy to learn Jiang Guangtou's move.
