I Built a Territory in Ancient Times - Chapter 184
People can’t get in at all.
Ming Yu was very anxious and wanted to implement it immediately, but Xie Yixiu reassured him: “It’s not in a hurry, you have to plan everything before you can act. For example, how many people to send, how to choose people, and who to lead the army, these must be done first. It’s just a matter of negotiation.”
Ming Yufu sat down again, he also knew that he was too impatient, and smiled embarrassedly, “You are more familiar with these than me, anyway, the cavalry of Dayan is only your red robe army can take action, this matter is up to the red robe. Being in the military is the best.”
Their recruits are still training, and it is impossible to take them out immediately. The garrison is basically infantry, with little combat mobility, and it is impossible to send them out. Although the Red Robe Army is small in number, it is not expensive in terms of quality, and when invading an enemy country, it is natural to have a small number of people and a better quality. That’s why Mingyu said that.
Obviously Xie Yixiu thought so too, “That’s right, it’s just the leader…”
He hesitated a little, glanced at Ming Yu, but swallowed the following words.
Ming Yu had never seen Xie Yixiu who was hesitant before, and said with a smile, “If there is someone you can use, just say it.”
It is impossible for Xie Yixiu to lead the team to fight in such a small-scale battle. The lieutenant generals under his command have outstanding abilities and are competent enough. Moreover, General Xie is also tasked with training the new army, and he will not be able to leave for a while.
Hearing Ming Yu’s words, Xie Yixiu was no longer entangled, and said, “A Bing sent to the red robe army by the prince is very good. He has the ability to lead the army. If so, can he lead the army to try?”
It turned out to be A Bing, no wonder Xie Yixiu was uncertain, after all, A Bing was sent by Ming Yu himself, so he could be regarded as a Ming Yu person. Since he wanted to give A Bing a try, it was natural to see whether Ming Yu agreed or not.
“A Bing?” Ming Yu was stunned for a moment, but he was only a half-old child, how could someone lead the army?
“A Bing has a strong learning ability, a quick mind, and he works very hard. Now his ability is at the forefront of the Red Robe Army. Moreover, he is also quite popular in the Red Robe Army, and he is very popular among everyone. Xie Yixiu paused for a while before continuing: “This time is also an opportunity to exercise, and it is rare. If A Bing is trained, it is certain that he will go a long way in the future.”
Now it was Ming Yu’s turn to be tangled, and A Bing was still a child in his eyes. When he asked A Bing to go to Xie Yixiu’s place, he followed his own wishes and had to do it. He also thought that children would learn skills, which is a good thing.
But now Xie Yixiu’s proposal is to go to the battlefield. If the sword does not have eyes, it will lose his life. How can he rest assured that a child will go?
“There are many generals stronger than him in the Red Pao Army. A Bing is still young, how can he lead the army to the battlefield?” Ming Yu shook his head.
“It is naturally impossible for him to lead the army alone, and he will definitely arrange the leader. The minister also wants to take this opportunity to let him go out to grow and experience. No general can have rich experience without a hundred battles. The minister is so big in him. When I was there, I have already experienced countless wars, and the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood have rolled over several times.” Seeing Ming Yu’s curious eyes, Xie Yixiu knew that he had lost his words, so he stopped his mouth.
Ming Yu is very sorry, it was the first time I heard Xie Yixiu say something about him. However, seeing that he did not intend to continue, Ming Yu was not easy to ask. He also knew that in Dayan’s military household system, the son inherits the father’s business, and it is common for half-old children to go to the battlefield.
It’s just that he couldn’t pass the test in his heart. He also knew that this time Xie Yixiu wanted to give A Bing a chance to make a contribution. Now that he has joined the military, only the merits of the war can bring out the value of a soldier.
If he blocked A Bing’s way and delayed his future, would he be blamed in the future? Ming Yu was very confused.
Ming Yu sighed and said helplessly: “A Bing should decide this matter himself. Ask him after you go back and see what he wants. But I still hope he can be safe and sound.”
Xie Yixiu nodded, A Bing is a manufacturable material, and must be polished to show brilliance. If he grows up, his future accomplishments will not be worse than his own.
Ming Yu is still soft-hearted. If he is really afraid of people being injured and bleeding, he should not be put into the military camp.
Ming Yu glanced at him, then looked at him several times, with a look of hesitating to speak.
Xie Yixiu saw it in his eyes, but in the end he couldn’t match his eyes, “Your Highness wants to ask the minister about the past?”
Ming Yu nodded again and again, looking like a curious baby, Xie Yixiu’s eyes flashed tenderly, and his tone was a little helpless, “Actually, there is nothing to say, I was born in a military family since I was a child, so I joined the military very early. All day long, I don’t care about anything other than being in the company of swords and guns. I only know that there are constant small battles, and people I know around me are still laughing and laughing today, and maybe they will be gone tomorrow. The corpses were separated under the slaughtering knives of the barbarians. So, he decided to kill the enemy and avenge them, and up to now, I don’t know if I have finished avenging them for them.”
What he said was very simple, but Ming Yu could hear the pain in his heart. War has been cruel since ancient times. Bloodshed death is the destination of the soldiers, and no one has any complaints, because as military households, this is their destiny.
Ming Yu was very distressed. He could imagine how the young Xie Yixiu used his tender hands to lift a gun that was taller than him. It is conceivable that Xie Yixiu at that time had suffered and collapsed when he saw his father and brother tragically die under the sword of the barbarians. It is even more conceivable to imagine the wars big and small that he has experienced year after year, day after day, scrambling in the sea of corpses and blood, and I don’t know how hesitant and desolate tomorrow will be today.
There are new faces around, old faces, fresh ones, those who have passed away come and go, it is too late to feel sad again and again, and can only wrap all feelings with indifference. This is Xie Yixiu.

149 Chapter 149
“Your Majesty doesn’t have to be like this, how many soldiers of Dayan are not like this?” Xie Yixiu’s heart softened, and he could see the pity in Ming Yu’s eyes.
Xie Yixiu said it easily, but Ming Yu felt uncomfortable in his heart. He also knew that Xie Yixiu was comforting himself. But he couldn’t comfort himself, the war is cruel, how many people lost their homes, lost their relatives and lost their lives because of it.
The barbarians of Suixi were brave and good at fighting. They robbed the population of food and robbed the people of the Great Swallows as livestock. The retreat of the country of Dayan has made these people even more serious, and people who are good are deceived by others, and the people of Dayan can only live in dire straits.
Therefore, since the emperor ascended the throne, he has taken a tough attitude, and the great country cannot be bullied like this. If you want to fight, you will fight. For decades, there have been winners and losers in the frontier wars, but it has also made the barbarians restrained a bit.
Such a stalemate will inevitably lead to losses for both countries. The longer the time goes on, the more tense the imperial army will be, and the more difficult the life of the common people will be.
The only way is to stop the war with war, kill to kill, and beat the barbarians to disperse them, to see if they can show off their power again? In the past, when Dayan fought against the barbarians, nine times out of ten, they were defeated and returned. But now, with the armament made by the craftsman, although they dare not say that they will win every battle, how can they be able to fight the enemy at 55 to 50?
In this way, when everyone is proficient in using these armaments, plus changing their tactics to adapt to today’s equipment, what are they afraid of fighting?
“It is the people who suffer in the war. I hope that the frontier areas can be settled and peaceful as soon as possible. Only peace can develop, so that the people of the frontier areas can live a stable life.” Ming Yu sighed.
“The lord has done a good job. Since the lord came to the borderlands, the lives of the people have changed a lot. Compared with before, at least they are no longer naked and hungry. In the future, I believe that the lord will not treat Liang badly. The people of the state.” Xie Yixiu said.
Now Mingyu repairs canals, builds workshops, and revitalizes Xiqi Corridor. As long as people in Liangzhou have hands, feet and strength, they can find work that suits them. No matter how bad it is, you can still have food to satisfy your hunger, let alone a person with good skills.
According to the word of mouth of the people in Liangzhou, there are more people in Liangzhou from far away coming to Liangcheng in an endless stream, because as long as they have the strength and work hard, they will not starve to death.
Liangzhou, especially the surrounding area of Liangcheng, is changing with each passing day. I don’t know when a new workshop will be built, or which road will become wider again. Liangcheng is full of thriving scenes that have never been seen before. The people’s faces are filled with positive and cheerful smiles every day. Where can there be such a sad face that today does not know what will happen tomorrow, and now the people of Liangzhou do not appreciate the goodness of the prince.
Xie Yixiu’s compliment made Ming Yu stunned, and he couldn’t help blushing. He had never heard anyone compliment him face to face, and it was a little embarrassing to say it from Xie Yixiu’s mouth.
“I think I’ve done too little for them.” Ming Yu sighed that his people didn’t have too many requirements, and they only needed to be fed and clothed to be grateful to Dade. That’s it, it made Ming Yu feel deeply guilty.
