Chapter 635 Different Angles
On the return journey, Lin Shan ordered several boats to sail very fast, with the sole intention of sending the governor back to Pingzhou safely.
On the way back, Lu Songli was not idle either.
There were quite a lot of soldiers injured this time, and they were all treated by Zhou Yuanhua. Even if he arranged people to help him, he was still too busy to handle it.
Lu Songli simply brought her personal guards to help him, and when Zhou Yuanhua was unsure about the prescription, she occasionally provided some suggestions.
Lu Songli did not interfere. Everyone has their own expertise. She learned a little from her grandfather before she traveled through time, but she didn't use it much over the years. She was not as immersed in this field as Zhou Yuanhua.
But for Zhou Yuanhua, he would also take into account the suggestions made by Lu Songli. He knew that Governor Lu Songli had some medical skills. It was said that many of the highly effective prescriptions for ready-made medicines in the largest pharmacy in Pingzhou were provided by the governor.
Their ship sailed on the sea for several days and finally docked at Mai County Pier.
Jinxian Wharf is the closest wharf to Changli.
As soon as Lu Songli returned, Qin Heng, Guo Chong, Dong Jichuan, Jiang Yizhou and other officials were waiting to greet her at the gate of the provincial government office.
Everyone was relieved to see that she was safe and sound.
"Governor, I heard that you met Xie Zhan in Beihai during this trip?"
"Yes, we fought once."
"Governor, I heard that Xie Zhan fell into the sea?"
"Well, I got hurt and fell into the inland sea."
"Have you rescued him?"
"When we left, his subordinates hadn't rescued him yet, and we don't know what happened after that."
Then, Lu Songli ordered that the follow-up compensation and resettlement work should be done for the soldiers who were injured and died during the trip with her.
Lu Songli did not regret her trip to Qingzhou. As for the casualties, she could only try her best to provide protection for their families afterwards.
A kind-hearted army cannot be commanded, and there will be no sacrifice in conquering the world.
Before she set out for Qingzhou, Qin Heng told her that there would be a war between Pingzhou and the Xianbei or Dali sooner or later.
Such a war, at present, is inevitable.
Unless one side is far stronger than the other, or catches the other side off guard.
Otherwise, once the war breaks out, all three parties will continue to send reinforcements to the war zone.
Then the battlefield expanded, the war escalated, the three parties fought each other, and finally fell into a stalemate until one of the parties could no longer bear the losses.
This war may lead to a major reshuffle among the three parties.
Qin Heng said he had a premonition that the war was not far away.
Lu Songli also thought so. The previous battles between the three parties were all small-scale and close combat.
How can the three parties convince their opponents if they don’t flex their muscles and show off their skills?
At that time, it will come down to which side has a stronger ability to withstand attacks and which side can better withstand the losses and consumption!
"Xie Zhan is missing now."
Qin Heng thought for a moment, "But it won't affect the occurrence of this war."
Later, Qin Heng went to see Qin Sheng.
This time Qin Sheng accompanied Lu Songli on the trip, and a lot of his work was handed over to Qin Heng, which made Qin Heng even busier.
Regarding the matter of asking General Qin Sheng to put aside his military training and transfer him to accompany the governor, he occasionally heard some low-ranking soldiers muttering that it was a bit of a waste of General Qin Sheng's ability to escort the governor on his travels.
Qin Heng asked someone to take note of the soldiers who stood up for Qin Sheng, and then arranged for someone to conduct a secret screening.
Qin Heng didn't think it was a waste of his talent for Xiaoliu to escort his sixth brother's wife on her trip. He was handsome and talented, but he was also his sixth brother's wife's husband.
Even if he was not the husband of his sixth brother's wife, when the governor needed him to protect him, he should have put down what he was doing and go.
When a force becomes strong enough, it has a necessary need called security needs.
Maybe Xiaoliu has been useless and has not played any role during the journey, but he must follow to protect his sixth brother and sister-in-law because safety comes first.
The establishment and development of Pingzhou was centered around my sixth brother's wife.
Xiaoliu's greatest potential in Pingzhou might be conquering cities and seizing territory. As for training soldiers, that could be done anytime.
But for Pingzhou at the moment, it doesn’t matter whether the territory is more or less. The safety of my sixth brother’s wife is the most important thing.
If something happens to my sixth brother's wife, everything in Pingzhou will be gone.
If it were clear that the soldiers who said those things had no ill intentions, then that would be fine. They had those thoughts, but they just stood in different positions.
When Qin Heng arrived, he found that Qin Sheng was already practicing horse stance.
"Why don't you take a good rest if you're injured?"
"Brother, my wound is actually not serious anymore."
…
Fan Yang wrote a memorial about the situation in Qingzhou and sent it back to Chang'an as quickly as possible.
Chang'an, the Imperial Palace
"What's the matter?" Song Mo looked unhappy at being disturbed.
Liang An replied carefully, "Your Majesty, news has come from Qingzhou that Commander Xie has disappeared."
"What did you say? Xie Zhan is missing?"
Liang An quickly read out the information that was handed to him.
Bang! Song Mo slammed the table hard. "This Xie Zhan is also a waste. He didn't even kill Lu Songli when he had such a good opportunity."
"Your Majesty, what should we do now?"
"Arrange more people to search Qingzhou and the nearby coast!" Xie Zhan is still useful, and Song Mo doesn't want him to disappear just like that.
Zhuozhou
In a small farmyard owned by a family surnamed Chen, a family was having dinner. There were only two dishes on the table, one pickled vegetable and one green vegetable. Each person had half a bowl of black paste in their bowl.
Although the food was not good, everyone had a smile on their face.
"The young crops in our fields are ready to be harvested."
"Dad, are we going to harvest the seedlings? Our donkey hasn't had enough to eat in two or three days."
"After dinner, let's go to the fields and harvest the seedlings!"
This season is when the wheat seedlings grow the thickest.
There are too many families raising donkeys in Zhuozhou. No matter how much grass and fodder the family collects, it is not enough for the donkeys to eat.
After dinner, the Chen family of more than ten people took their tools to their fields and started working.
As soon as they started using their sickles, passersby were surprised. "Hey, are you going to harvest the seedlings? They can still grow for two more days."
"There's nothing I can do. We have four donkeys at home and there's not enough fodder for them."
"So many? Your family is going to be rich. If you sell these four donkeys when they grow up, you can get fifty or sixty taels of silver."
Hearing this, the Chen family couldn't stop laughing.
They had all figured it out. After selling the four donkeys, even after paying taxes, deducting the cost of buying the donkeys and a year's worth of food, they could probably get about ten or twenty taels, right?
For farmers like them, this is very good.
They have already planned to build some houses once they get the money, and if the price of donkeys is good next year, they will continue to raise them.
"What are you doing?"
