Chapter 325: keep going
Bai Qingzhi didn't hesitate for too long. If it wasn't for his lack of skills, he would have wanted to go to Beijing in person to save his mother, wife, daughter and son.
Now that there is finally a glimmer of hope, how could Bai Qingzhi not hold on to it firmly?
According to Ye Anlan's specific requirements for tokens, Bai Qingzhi gave her a pouch that Mrs. Bai personally sewed for him. The purse contained one of the safety symbols that Mrs. Bai had asked for him.
I said it was one of them because Mrs. Bai would ask for a new peace talisman for her son every year.
Because of the war, Bai Qingzhi hadn't received a peace talisman from his mother for two years. The one he gave Ye Anlan was sent to the northern border by his mother the year before last.
He told Ye Anlan the reason, and Ye Anlan hurriedly asked Yang Xiaotao to get a small box, put the purse and the safety charm in it and put it away.
Bai Qingzhi thanked Ye Anlan again and again.
Ye Anlan returned the courtesy and said that you are welcome, but at the same time, she did not forget to say, "I will send the money used for the renovation and expansion of Juyongguan to the Ye Family Army who escorted the family of Lord Hou."
As soon as she said this, Bai Qingzhi couldn't figure out what Ye Anlan meant by robbing the rich and helping the poor.
Only then did he know that Ye Anlan went to the capital not to make up for Ye's shortfall caused by sending military supplies to the Northern Army, but to raise another batch of money for the Northern Army to build the Guancheng.
Bai Qingzhi, who has not been so considerate for many years, once again had red eyes and tears in his tiger eyes. He bowed to the bottom, "Thank you, Miss Ye, for Bai Wanerlang, who is on behalf of the Northern Army."
Ye Anlan quickly waved his hand, "If you don't mind, Lord Hou, you can also send those disabled soldiers to Ye's. I will help them find a job within their ability, and never let them have nothing to eat."
Bai Qing was stunned. He never expected that some princes were willing to put soldiers from other families on their own territory. How is this different from driving a bunch of nails into their own territory?
Seeing his expression, Ye Anlan immediately understood what Bai Qingzhi was wondering about. She said to Bai Qingzhi, "You may not believe it, but I, Mrs. Ye, don't plan to end up participating in such a big event. And I I didn't recruit other people either, I just wanted to use a different method to contribute a little bit to the Dingbei Army."
Bai Qingzhi was shocked at first, and then suddenly realized.
He just said, even if Ye Anlan and Xie Yuan are brothers and sisters, it doesn't make sense that the relationship between the two rebels is so good.
It turned out that it was because Mrs. Ye had no ambition to compete in the world at all!
He glanced at Li Jing who was smiling and listening to him talking to Ye Anlan, and thought to himself, no wonder Ye Anlan didn't shy away from it at all, and directly talked about her next move in front of Li Jing.
What Bai Qingzhi didn't know was that the reason why Li Jing was so calm was that Ye Anlan had already gotten through with him, and he had already made up his mind to accompany Ye Anlan on this trip.
It is true that the old dynasty, which has run out of power, can no longer turn the tide and help the building to collapse, but the current capital is still a dragon's pool and a tiger's den controlled by the royal family.
Even though Ye Anlan is bold and talented, Li Jing doesn't trust her to run into danger alone.
The excuse for following him was that he had delivered an urgent letter to Xie Yuan. The secret letter, which seemed to be just a family letter from a merchant, was translated. It probably meant that there are only fourteen rebels left in this world, including us and the Ye family. Power, we should also extend our tentacles and slowly lay out in the direction of the capital.
As for whether it is too early to make a layout in the direction of the capital, and whether this matter needs to be dispatched by him, Xie Yuan's number one adviser, from scratch
Li Jing said that the old saying is good, "a lion fights a rabbit with all his strength", the more critical the situation, the more Xie can't ignore any seemingly unimportant things.
Not to mention how speechless Xie Yuan would be when he received this serious nonsense letter, Li Jing had already made up his mind to accompany Ye Anlan and her relatives with a group of guards including Chang An. Wei went to Beijing together.
Of course, he couldn’t take the main force of Xie’s army along with him. Xie Yuan was still waiting for more than 10,000 people to go back to help fight the war.
Unlike Ye Anlan, who has no ambitions for other people's land, the soldiers she raises only need to guard her three acres of land, and she doesn't have to worry about the shortage of personnel.
***
Ye Anlan's proposal was quickly conveyed by Bai Qingzhi to the generals of the Dingbei Army at all levels. They mobilized their soldiers and went door-to-door to ask the disabled Dingbei Army soldiers according to the roster.
However, the result of the inquiry was that those disabled Dingbei Army soldiers didn't want to drag their families to Ye Anlan's side at all.
It is difficult to leave homeland, and it is difficult to leave relatives and friends, especially soldiers like them who have dedicated their youth, blood and part of their bodies to the northern border. They have an unimaginable nostalgia and reluctance for the northern border.
Compared with going to other places to live a life that may be safe and rich, but it will definitely make them feel uneasy, they prefer to stay in the north in a down-to-earth way, living a life that may be embarrassing and poor, but it can make them feel at ease Life.
There were so many people who thought this way that the active soldiers of the Dingbei Army asked back and forth for several days, but the rosters reported were almost blank.
The few who wrote their names on it were because they couldn’t just watch their wives and children starve to death.
Bai Qingzhi glanced at the summary roster with a total number of less than 500, only to feel a capital embarrassment hit him **** the head.
How can he explain to Ye Anlan_(:з」∠)_
He was kind enough to help, the conditions were so generous, and he waited for so many days in vain, but his old subordinates were all stubborn. They would rather stay in the northern border to drink porridge and chew wild vegetables every day, and bear the burden of being bullied by a small group of people. People, soldiers, and soldiers are in danger of being attacked and harassed from time to time, and they are unwilling to take their families to Ye's to live a good life_(:з」∠)_
Bai Qingzhi was so worried that his mouth was on fire, and it was Song Wei who gave him an idea in the end.
Song Wei also gets along with Ye Anlan and Xie Yuan a lot, and has a good understanding of the behavior of these two companies, so he can contribute to Bai Qingyi's solution when he is at a loss.
Hearing what he said, Bai Qingzhi seemed to have received an amnesty, and immediately strode to find Ye Anlan to discuss it.
Song Wei's suggestion is very simple, since they decided that the stubborn donkeys of the Northern Army refused to go to the mountain, then they invited Ye's big mountain to take root in the northern border.
You must know that although the risk factor in their northern border is a bit higher, the products are not always barren.
They also have a lot of good things, which are of great interest to businessmen.
