Guizhou City, restaurant.

Li Ying sat next to a handsome young man and introduced: "Ruoxu, this is Qingping Wei Shi Bangxian, the word Xiyin." Brother Xi Yin, this is Mr. Yangming, who is tall enough to be Wang Yuan, and his words are empty. ”

"I've seen Brother Xiyin!"

"Haha, Brother Ruoxu is too polite. I heard that you killed nearly 100 thieves during a night attack, which made me admire! ”

Shi Bangxian is 19 years old this year, his grandfather was a commander, and his father was a commander. Not surprisingly, he will also be the commander of Qingping Wei in the future, and once he takes office, he will be a military attache of the third grade.

If Wang Yuan is familiar with the "History of the Ming Dynasty", he will know that the old man in front of him will not only become the chief soldier of Guizhou in the future, but also be posthumously presented to the Governor of Zuo (Zhengyipin Military Attaché) after his death. Even his ancestors for three generations, because of Shi Bangxian's outstanding exploits, the men were posthumously presented from the first-class governor, and the women were posthumously presented with the first-class Mrs. Fate.

This king's trick in governing the army is not to be greedy for money, so he has the court's rewards, and all of them are distributed to the soldiers. Therefore, the soldiers used their lives, united as one, fought hundreds of battles large and small, and conquered everything.

Don't look at An's arrogance now, when An Guirong's great-grandson took the throne, Shi Bangxian made him kneel and beg for mercy as soon as he reprimanded him, and An's native soldiers were summoned by Shi Bangxian to come and go.

Wang Yuan added wine to the two of them and asked, "Brother Xiyin is far away in Qingping, why did he come to Guiyang?" ”

Shi Bangxian explained: "The thieves suddenly entered the Kou Pingyue Division 14 days ago. My father went to the rescue, but he was short of soldiers and food, so he asked me to come to Wei Zhitai with a letter. If the Guiyang side can quickly send troops to block the back road of the thieves, the thieves will inevitably lose their ground, and they will be defeated in less than three months. ”

Li Ying came to the side: "Everyone is waiting for the An clan to send troops." ”

Shi Bangxian suddenly smiled bitterly, he also knew what the hell the guards in Guizhou looked like. Two years ago, the Anning Division rebelled, and his father Shi Jian also chose to avoid the war, but he really had no way to avoid sending troops to fight.

"An's troops, it should be soon." Wang Yuan said.

Shi Bangxian exclaimed: "I don't know who planned this plan, and now it has spread all over Guizhou City, and it is difficult for the An clan to think of not having troops." ”

Wang Yuan and Li Ying looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't expose it.

"Dada-da-da!"

The sound of horses' hooves came from the street, and in less than a moment, Song Ling'er walked upstairs quickly.

"I'm!"

Song Ling'er smashed the saber on the table and said angrily: "The Song family still has more than 5,000 soldiers and horses, and the main force of the thieves has already gone west. My father, they are afraid of the enemy, and they hide in the North Yazhai all day long to drink and have fun, and they don't even want to fight back from the ancestral house of Hongbian! ”

It's enough to make a nest, the ancestral graves of the Song family have been dug open, and they are still waiting for their children and grandchildren to fill it up.

"Who is this?" Shi Bangxian asked.

Li Ying introduced: "The only daughter of the Shuidong Song Xuanxuan envoy, Miss Song Ling'er. Sister Ling'er, this time she also killed the enemy with us, and she also personally stabbed a thief. ”

"It turned out to be a heroine, disrespectful, disrespectful!" Shi Bangxian immediately got up, facing the woman, his attitude was also very enthusiastic.

Don't mention the military talent of this product, just look at its words and deeds, but know that he is an eight-sided exquisite person. As soon as they met, they called Wang Yuan a virtuous brother, and the compliments were very sincere, and now they praised Song Linger as a heroine.

Sure enough, Song Ling'er's appetite was right, she dreamed of being a heroine, and immediately smiled: "Haha, just a few random slashes, it's not a heroine." ”

Wang Yuan asked, "You came alone?" ”

Song Ling'er said: "My Abba's personal attendant died in Hongbian Village. Now Achai and Ngawang have all been transferred to Abba's side on errands, and I don't have any guards, what are you called a widow and ......?"

"Alone," Wang Yuan said with a smile and a smile, "You are a good student, read some books, don't always use inappropriate words." ”

The wine and food had been served, and the four of them drank to cheer up, and soon chatted into the alley.

The topics are all related to the war, and although Shi Bangxian is only nineteen years old, he has been fighting for two years. Mainly defending the city, there were more than ten thieves who were personally hacked to death, and later An Guirong led the troops to quell the rebellion, and Shi Bangxian also followed all the way to chase and kill, and easily hacked to death seven or eight, anyway, he was forced to be fierce among his peers.

Song Ling'er and Li Ying were very envious of Shi Bangxian. I envy him for being able to go into battle to kill the enemy, and I envy him for being able to inherit the military position, and he will be a proper military attache of the third rank in the future.

Among the four, Shi Bangxian is the oldest, playing the role of the eldest brother and comforting his younger brothers and sisters. After drinking this wine, Song Ling'er and Li Ying were so confused that they couldn't wait to burn yellow paper with Shi Bangxian on the spot.

Just as the end was about to end, a sergeant suddenly ran into the restaurant, came to Shi Bangxian's side and said, "Major General, An has decided to send troops!" ”

Shi Bangxian stood up suddenly, clasped his fists at Wang Yuan and the three of them, and said, "Ruoxu, Liangchen, and Ling'er sister, today's wine will be drunk here." I want to go back to Qingpingwei immediately and report to my father about the military situation that An is about to send troops. ”

"Brother, please be careful on the road!"

Wang Yuan and the others also got up and sent Shi Bangxian out of the east gate.

Shi Bangxian took his entourage, two people and two horses, and drove away drunk. The official road on the side of the Pingyue Division has been blocked, and the city is also surrounded by rebels, so he has to risk breaking through the siege if he wants to report the military situation.

Inside the east gate, Song Ling'er led the horse and said to Wang Yuan: "Hey, I'll go to Longchangyi with you to study." ”

"Suddenly figured out to study?" Wang Yuan asked.

Song Ling'er muttered a small mouth, and said angrily: "My guards were all taken away by Abba, and he didn't let me go into battle, and he didn't even allow me to go hunting." What does it mean to stay in Guizhou City? It's better to go to Longgang Mountain, at least there are more lively friends. ”

Li Ying suddenly said: "I won't get involved in the war anymore, and I will go back to Longgang Mountain to study honestly." ”

Wang Yuan laughed and said, "Why are you all converted?" ”

Li Ying explained: "Brother Shi was able to take up the post, and he was a commander from the beginning. I am the third son of the Li family, and I don't have my share in anything, so I made a contribution to the sky, and I fought until I was forty or fifty years old, and I guess I couldn't be a commander. It's better to study as a good student, take the exam to get a person into the sergeant, and maybe you can go to the battlefield as a civilian official. ”

"Let's read a book together." Wang Yuan was also incapable of getting involved in the war.

An Guirong is an old fox, and it is difficult for him to give in to a rumor, and the rebels will definitely not be able to calm down in the short term.

Wang Yuan's strategy to force the An clan to send troops is still second. The real power can only be revealed after the rebellion is quelled - in terms of meritorious deeds and convictions, it is enough for An Guirong to drink a pot.

Sure enough.

Ten days later, An Guirong turned into a senior actor and swore in Guizhou City with a sick face.

Due to poor health, An Guirong stopped and stopped, and it actually took more than a month to get to Hongbian. Governor Wei Ying urged repeatedly, An Guirong reluctantly went into battle with illness, and recovered the Hongbian Village, the ancestral home of the An family, in three days.

Then, An Guirong fell ill again and was carried back to Guizhou City by his subordinates for treatment. The Shuixi native soldiers had no leader, so they stayed in Hongbian Village and refused to go further.

Governor Wei Ying was so angry that he wanted to kill people, and he was sure that An Guirong had colluded with the rebels.

Because when An Guirong was fighting the Hongbian village, it happened that the rebels abandoned the village overnight and fled, and it was easy to recover it. Moreover, it was an empty stockade, and the money, grain, and goods had already been emptied, and even the nearby people were coerced away.

After another two months, An Guirong recovered from his illness and recalled all his soldiers under the pretext that the military rations were exhausted.

As soon as the Shuixi soldiers left, the Miao rebels returned, and Song Ran, who had moved to Hongbian Village, asked for help again.

To put it mildly, An Guirong finally agreed to send troops and easily helped the Song family to relieve the siege, and after making a great contribution, his mother fell ill.

This disease is the same as the Tusi soldiers under him, he is really obedient, and he can be called to come and go as he pleases.

You can't blame too much, everyone is sixty or seventy years old, and they have gone out to quell the rebellion many times due to illness, and a loyal heart can be seen from the sun and the moon.

This battle was fought like a family, and the court was confused by the complicated military situation. One moment said that the rebels had been suppressed, and the other said that the rebels had risen again, coupled with the fact that Liu Gonggong's power leaned towards the government and the opposition, the military department had no leisure to transfer troops to quell the rebellion.

The days of wearing Qingzhai were nourishing, the rebels did not come to provoke, and the toast did not come to collect taxes. also grabbed countless money, grain and goods, and added men and women, and the owner of Fang Zhai longed for this battle to be fought for a hundred years.

Even, because some people have grain and livestock, the owner of the village also started the aqueduct project. He plans to spend five or six years taking advantage of the slack time to connect the water of the dark river to the canal and bring it to the vicinity of the cottage to irrigate the farmland.

Wang Yuan's life is also quite chic, although Song Matou is too busy to take care of himself, and he no longer sponsors him to study. But he himself is rich, after the night attack, the master of Fang Zhai gave Wang Yuan more than 300 taels of silver, which was enough for him to squander it and go to Yunnan to participate in the township test.

The battle outside is endless, and Longgang Mountain is still peaceful.

The governor left in the winter, and took with him a lot of looted goods, which were used locally to honor Liu's father-in-law.

Mao Ke, the deputy envoy of the school, also left, and this gentleman was not in good health, so he directly returned to his hometown. Before leaving, the Guiyang Academy he co-founded with Xi Shu was completed, and Wang Yangming was invited to give lectures in the city, but Wang Yangming wrote a poem and refused: "The wild man is sick and lazy, and the books are often abandoned and the old school is scarce." How can there be majesty worthy of the law, and it is really ashamed of the praise of the literature. moved to Zhengyi to invest in the hospital, but the vacant position still avoided the lecture hall. Fan I should have gained nothing, and the sky made Toast laugh at Wang Liang. ”

Finally, Xi Shu personally went to Longgang Mountain to have an academic exchange with Wang Yangming. He also promised that Guiyang Academy does not limit the teaching content, and Wang Yangming can spread the study of mind to his heart's content.

With such favorable conditions, Uncle Wang could hardly refuse, so he immediately packed his luggage and moved with his servants and students.
