Chapter 132 Defrauding the Emperor's Cloth
Lu Ning's soldiers were asked to engage in a great ethnic integration of Xianbei Tartar women. Lu Ning himself was scolded by the scholars of the world and was exhausted. He said that Lu Ning was a ruthless person, indulging soldiers to commit crimes and doing such a thing that harmed the will of heaven and earth. In particular, the great scholars in the court submitted memorials to the emperor many times. Although the court issued several letters, Lu Ning still did his own thing and put it behind his mind.
Lu Ning was also thinking in his heart, his grandmother, why didn’t our Han ethnic group take the initiative to integrate other ethnic groups? Didn’t the Qing cavalry such as Temujin of the Yuan Dynasty, Huang Taiji of the Qing Dynasty, Doergun and other Qing cavalry all bloodyly slaughter our Central Plains and also engage in great ethnic integration? And they are all great heroes that are admired by the world. But they want other ethnic groups to integrate the Han ethnic group. What a bullshit. The conquest of any country is not a bloody massacre.
Isn't it all the conquerors who have the final say? They are just a great fusion of ethnic groups. What kind of crime is this? Compared to the ancient Roman army captured the capital of Carthage, they not only killed all the old and young in the city, but also burned all the city of Carthage, and even sprinkled Shanghai salt on its ruins to show their determination to completely destroy Carthage! You must know that there were always hundreds of thousands of people in the city at that time. The Romans' behavior of such acts as compared to the killing god Bai Qi, probably wouldn't be much forgiving.
In 480 BC, the Persian king Xerxes, the son and heir of Darius I, led his army across the Bosphorus and launched military operations on Greek land. Xerxes' fearful army ransacked Athens and burned down the famous Acropolis, its temples and sanctuaries.
In May 330 BC, Persepolis was occupied by the army of Alexander in Macedonia. Alexander's famous infantry platoon and light cavalry were obviously more powerful than the heavy carriages of the Persians. After occupying Persepolis, Alexander plundered the treasures of the Persian king. Alexander also let his soldiers rob the entire city. They rushed to gold, luxurious furniture and purple-red clothes embroidered with gold. They used their swords to divide a large number of gorgeous clothes and tableware with high artistic value into multiple portions, each of whom each took his own portion. In the end, Alexander's torch, which was majestic, luxurious and unparalleled, Xerxes Palace.
Lu Ning thought silently in the tent, and I don’t know when he fell asleep. It was not until the sun was noon the next day, and the sun shone on his butt. Lu Ning woke up. After Lu Ning got up, he ate something in a hurry, and asked someone to write a good news, telling the emperor and the minister Lu Ning army of the court to recover Shanggu and kill more than 23,000 Xianbei Tartars. Although the number was enlarged a little, this was what the emperor liked to hear. If the writing was small, the emperor would not give Lu Ning army so much supplies. How could Lu Ning army give the emperor?
Isn’t it all for cheating money and food? Isn’t it done in later movies and TV? And it looks quite useful. Since the emperor gave Lu Ning’s army so much money and food, since he won the battle, he would report it to make the emperor happy. Lu Ning asked the soldiers who reported the victory to follow the method of Tianchou and also put a small big bear army flag on his back, which made him shout when he encountered a town. The Big Bear Army recovered Shanggu and won a great victory in Shanggu. The Big Bear Army killed more than 20,000 Xianbei Tartars for nonsense and asked him to call him all the way to Luoyang. I wonder what the ministers in the court would think after hearing it.
The emperor and ministers in Luoyang City were very happy to receive two good news from Lu Ning's army in succession, especially the eunuch Zhang Rang and general He Jin praised him, and the praise from the upright generals such as Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and Zhu Jun. Those ministers in the court who did not like Lu Ning very much shut their mouths. When the emperor said whether Lu Ning should be promoted to another official position, the ministers in the court stopped doing it again, and they were starting again He beat Lu Ning and said that Lu Ning was worthless, saying that Lu Ning was just a fool, had no knowledge, had poor background, and was only reckless and rough. He also said that Lu Ning was bold and arrogant and instigated soldiers to rape captured Tartar women, which was injustice and humiliating the country. The Han Dynasty was a charity of etiquette, so how could soldiers do things that even the animals could not do? If they were not guilty of Da Xiong, they would be extremely kind to the emperor. How could they still promote Lu Ning?
When the emperor saw the ministers quarreling again, he was so annoyed that he was so annoyed that he would discuss. When the emperor saw the ministers quarreled, he simply said that he would reward Big Bear with 200 kilograms of gold and 5 million yuan of soldiers under Big Bear.
When the ministers in the court heard the emperor's old man speak, they stopped making noise. Zhang Rangqu, the eunuch beside the emperor, said: "Emperor, there is still a memorial that Big Bear has not discussed."
After hearing Zhang Rang's words, the old emperor said, "Is Big Bear going to ask me for food and grass again? But now I have food for him. What can you do to meet Big Bear's request?"
The eunuch Zhang Rang said, "Emperor, Big Bear is not asking for money and food. Big Bear said that his soldiers went to war in winter and had thin clothes, and many soldiers were frozen. Also, Big Bear said that his soldiers lacked bows and arrows and armor now. It was said that the emperor could consider the situation of Big Bear's soldiers. The soldiers were hungry and cold now, and then there would be a large number of Xianbei Tartar cavalry to attack and ask the emperor to help them solve their clothes and quilts. It was said that if the emperor did not have so many cotton clothes, cotton pants, and quilts for a while, then give more cotton, silk, and cotton cloth. As for bows and arrows and armor, it was said that the emperor wanted their soldiers to eliminate the Xianbei Tartar cavalry more, then send more, otherwise Big Bear could only guard the city for a while before sending troops after sufficient arrows."
The emperor suddenly remembered and said, "Why is there no casualties among the Big Bear soldiers in the good news?"
General He Jin said: "Your Majesty, I have asked. I heard that the soldiers of the Big Bear Army also suffered heavy losses. Now they are particularly lacking in clothes and pants. The soldiers are covered with single clothes and thin pants. They did not say that the casualties were because they were afraid that the emperor would worry about it."
The old emperor said, "Since the Big Bear Army is in trouble, you should give him some support. Otherwise, it would be bad for the Big Bear to not move. Try to meet his requirements. If there is insufficient cotton coat, cotton pants, and quilts, then give him more cotton, silk, cotton cloth, etc. As for bows, arrows, armor, or armor, you can also give it a little. This matter will be handled by Zhang Qing's family and the general."
As soon as the emperor spoke, the eunuch Zhang Rang and the general He Jin, both of them were often bribed by Lu Ning, and they also wanted to continue drinking fairy wine, so they all sent Lu Ning and the others a large number of supplies that could be equipped with more than 100,000 soldiers, including silk, cotton, cotton cloth, cotton coat, cotton pants, bows and arrows, armor, etc., which could be equipped with more than 100,000 soldiers. Sima Lang, who was staying in Jinyang City, Bingzhou, smiled so much that his mouth was not closed. He knew that the emperor's old man was slaughtered by his elder brother again.
