Chapter 324 New Year's Eve Dinner
Seeing the uniform training formation of the Yueqi Camp, Yang Hu was really impressed. Although Yang Hu had not seen the previous situation of the Yueqi Camp with his own eyes, he had also heard a lot of rumors about the dilapidated division and its sluggishness.
During the journey, there was simply no way to support the wall. The imperial court had basically given up on the management of the five schools of the Northern Army. The Yueqi Battalion could only become disorganized without anyone to restrain it.
But the army in front of us is no different from a regular army. It advances when it hears the drum and retreats when the gold is heard. It is strict and orderly when given the order.
Compared with infantry, cavalry is a more difficult branch to train, because infantry only needs to obey orders, while cavalry not only needs to obey orders, but also has to control horses. After all, horses are just beasts and have no sense of discipline.
, completely controlled by the rider on the horse.
Therefore, it is indeed quite good for the cavalry formation to be neat and uniform, and to advance and retreat in an orderly manner. Among ordinary cavalry units, it is impossible to reach such a training level without one or two years.
Cao Liang has only taken over Yueqiying for more than two months. It only took two months for Yueqiying to reach such a level, which is indeed quite good.
It seems that those who secretly want to see Cao Liang's jokes are destined to be disappointed.
Yang Hu said to Cao Liang: "Brother Ziming, I heard a few days ago that Taiwei Jiang Ji impeached you, saying that you abused your power and disregarded human life. Fortunately, the general suppressed it and did not hold you accountable."
This incident did not surprise Cao Liang. Military Marquis Guo Yang was his nephew. I remember that when Cao Liang was beheading Guo Yang, he heard Guo Yang yelling, saying that his uncle was Taiwei Guo Yang.
But at that time, Cao Liang was fully prepared to establish his authority in Yueqi Camp, so naturally he could not let Guo Yang go easily. If Cao Liang had been cowarded at that time, he would not have made everyone in Yueqi Camp feel in awe, and he would not have achieved what he has today.
.
But having said that, although Jiang Ji is a Taiwei, so what? Cao Liang is not even afraid of the Sima family, so why is he afraid of a lackey of the Sima family?
If he had been the nephew of another minister, maybe Cao Liang would have considered it, but when Guo Yang carried Jiang Ji out, not only could he not be saved, but he had become a reminder for him. If Cao Liang didn't kill him, who would he kill?
Of course, after beheading Guo Yang, Jiang Ji must have become angry and issued a memorial to impeach him. This was something Cao Liang expected.
However, Xia Houxuan agreed to help handle the matter, so Cao Liang naturally had nothing to worry about. No matter how powerful Jiang Ji was, could he be more powerful than Cao Shuang?
Sure enough, with Cao Shuang here, he ignored Jiang Ji's memorial, and Jiang Ji was naturally helpless.
As for the relationship with Jiang Ji, Cao Liang didn't care at all. He was already fighting to the death with the Sima family, so would he care about another Jiang Ji?
After sending Yang Hu away, Cao Liang fell into deep thought. For a while, he was so busy that he felt sorry for Yang Huiyu. When others fall in love, they fall in love before the flowers and under the moon. We are close to each other. Not seeing each other for one day is like three autumns.
, but it was good for me. After returning to Luoyang, I only briefly met with Yang Huiyu once, and then there was no news. It would be strange not to make her anxious.
More importantly, Cao Liang promised to propose marriage to the Yang family as soon as possible, but this time, it was already more than two months ago.
It seems that it's time to talk to my father.
Cao Liang had a headache when he thought of talking to Cao Yan. Cao Yan's stubborn temper really left no room for negotiation. Even eight horses couldn't pull back what he was sure of.
During this period of time, apart from meeting Cao Yan a few times at the Xiaoqi camp, Cao Liang had almost never seen Cao Yan at home. Either he was too busy and did not come back, or Cao Liang himself was too busy to go back. In short
, the father and son almost never ate at the same table at home.
Moreover, when he was in the military camp, Cao Yan had a business-like face and did not talk about family matters. Even if Cao Liang wanted to talk to him, Cao Yan was indifferent and would not even answer Cao Liang's words.
It seems that if you want to talk about family matters, you have to be at home.
Fortunately, it's New Year's Eve soon. No matter how busy Cao Yan is, he still has to go home for a New Year's Eve dinner, so Cao Liang secretly decided to have a good talk with Cao Yan on New Year's Eve.
As for how to persuade Cao Yan, Cao Liang was ready. After thinking about it for a long time, Cao Liang finally came up with the words to persuade Cao Yan.
This time, Cao Yan must have no reason to refuse.
The New Year holiday has been a long-standing practice. From New Year's Eve to the ninth day of the first lunar month, there is a ten-day holiday. During these ten days, all the imperial offices are closed, and the Yueqi Camp is no exception.
The forest owner, Bo, had already arranged the sleeping arrangements for the Yueqi camp and handed them over to Cao Liang, who signed and approved them.
During this time, Master Lin Bo was busy enough. The leisurely life he once had was gone forever. Being an errand under Cao Liang was naturally much harder. However, no matter how hard and tiring it was, Master Lin Bo did not dare to say a word. Cao Liang
Liang managed the army rigorously and had clear rewards and punishments. In order to keep his head, Lin Lord Bo had to work hard.
The Spring Festival break has finally arrived, and the forest owner Bo Ke can breathe a sigh of relief.
Cao Liang did not embarrass them anymore. The Spring Festival itself is a day for family reunion. Giving everyone a holiday can also let them relax. Combining work and rest is the real way to run an army.
When Cao Liang left Yueqi Camp, it was already the afternoon of New Year's Eve. When he returned to Gaolinghou Mansion, it was already dark.
There are no firecrackers or Spring Festival couplets in this era, but the lights and colorful lights on the streets of Luoyang still allow Cao Liang to feel the atmosphere of the New Year.
It’s the New Year, and this is already the third Spring Festival that Cao Liang has celebrated after traveling through time. From being hesitant and confused to accepting it calmly, Cao Liang feels that he has completely integrated into this era, and the prosperity of the future is already in his memory.
He has become a stranger in the world. He is no longer a passerby of this era, but has truly become a member of this era.
Under Liu Ying's help, a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner was prepared, with eight rare delicacies, both land and water. It was rare for Gaoling Mansion to have such a luxurious meal. Cao Yan had already returned home ahead of Cao Liang. When Cao Liang arrived home,
Liu Ying welcomed him into the hall with a smile on her face.
This New Year's Eve dinner was quite harmonious. Cao Liang had a lot to say, but the occasion seemed inappropriate, so he finished the meal quietly and then looked for an opportunity to have a good talk with his father.
talk.
After dinner, Cao Liang immediately took the initiative to mention it to Cao Yan. Cao Yan seemed to have something to say, so the two of them went to the study together.
