Chapter 97: Come on, adults
Zhang Yang wants to cry without tears, is he just a money-spending owner in Wang Yan's heart? What does it mean to bully others? The knife in the Tatar's hand didn't matter who he was, maybe he knew that he was the son of an English duke, and he would like to cut two more knives.
Lianxiang looked at Zhang Yang with burning eyes.
"My lord, are you really going to the frontier?"
"Or Lianxiang knows that she feels sorry for me, should you give me a blessing?"
Seeing Zhang Yang looking at him pitifully, Lianxiang made a fist gesture, which was used by Zhang Yang to encourage them.
"Come on, my lord, I believe that you will definitely return triumphantly, I know that you are a big hero."
Burst......
Zhang Yang almost vomited blood.
"Forget it, it's just nonsense to tell you this, I'm afraid I'm going to walk for several months this time, when will the grass grow in the north, it is estimated that the Tatars will stop invading, so this time I will explain the task of this winter, and Wangcai will bring the money that the emperor rewarded today."
Wangcai hurriedly took the money over.
"This is a thousand taels of gold, that is, 10,000 taels of silver, you save a little money, but don't fall behind in the progress, it's best to study a few more good medicines, if you don't have enough manpower to tell Wu Yong, let him send someone over."
"Won't Wu Yong follow you?"
Wang Yan is very curious, Wu Yong can be described as Zhang Yang's right-hand man.
"Of course he can't go, who will keep an eye on the progress of the project for me when he goes? So this time I didn't bring anyone, I went alone. ”
Zhang Yang was very depressed, he wanted to bring Wangcai, but this guy was not in the military system, and it was inconvenient to bring it, so he simply let him stay as a temporary housekeeper.
"Have you remembered the task given to you by Wangcai?"
Wangcai nodded.
"Remembered."
"Say it again."
"Tang Bohu is here, arrange it as soon as possible, Lu Wen's 50,000 taels of silver have arrived, and they will be put in the money bank and used at any time, and the money that Wu Yong wants must be remembered clearly, but it can't be deducted and affect the progress."
"Okay, it's good to know."
After coming out of the research institute, Zhang Yang went to the barracks again, asked Wu Yong to leave all the good hands on the work, and then picked 4,000 soldiers for him.
"My lord, I see, you must take care when you go over there."
"Okay, I know, by the way, let me give out the follow-up cotton clothes, first for the soldiers of other battalions to wear, I will leave the money for you, and you can ask Luwen to do the clothes of the remaining 2,000 people."
"Okay, I see."
Zhang Yang didn't sleep all night, and bought more than 10,000 sets of cotton clothes, which made people pull them back overnight, and those soldiers were his subordinates in the future, and they couldn't freeze them, not to mention that Saibei was much colder than the capital, and this guarantee must be there.
As for waiting for the court to issue clothes? Zhang Yang thought about their speed, it was a big deal, and he would just think of a way to deal with this money when the time came.
Early the next morning, Wang Lansong and others came, plus the 4,000 people of the Zhangyang Jingxi Defense Battalion, and the phalanx of 16,000 people was very spectacular.
In fact, there are still quite a few complaints about these people who suddenly went out to fight, but fortunately, the flamboyant cotton clothes arrived in time, so that the deserters were reduced to double digits, and this number was a pitiful proportion in ancient times.
"My lord, the car is ready......
Wang Lansong obviously didn't rest well.
Zhang Yang looked at the carriage prepared for himself and nodded.
"Let's go."
16,000 soldiers and 3,000 horses drove away from the capital and in the direction of Ningxia.
On the west gate of the capital, Jiajing climbed the west gate for the first time since he ascended the throne, and watching the army gradually move away, Jiajing felt a little lost in his heart.
"Yang Zhongtang, did I go too far?"
"Your Majesty, everything has a cause and effect, and Zhang Yang can be regarded as reaping the consequences of his own actions, but the emperor doesn't have to worry, although there are many intrusions in the north, but there are mostly some small Tatar nomadic tribes, with this 16,000 army, the Tatars are afraid to avoid it, and Zhang Yang will not have an accident."
Jiajing nodded.
"It's okay, it's okay."
For Emperor Jiajing's city gate send-off, Zhang Yang naturally didn't know, at this time he was lying in the car and sleeping Zhengxiang, after all, he hadn't slept all night.
The march was very hard, even if Zhang Yang had a carriage along the way, and tried to take the big road, it also bumped him a lot, maybe the road was too boring, Zhang Yang finally learned to ride a horse.
Half a month later, Zhang Yang was wrapped in his fur coat, and under him was a jujube red horse, looking at the red sunset outside the plug, and the sense of vicissitudes arose.
"The desert is lonely, and the sun sets on the long river......"
"It's a lonely desert, and the sun sets over the long river......"
Wang Lansong couldn't help but admire on the side.
"You don't think I made this poem, do you?"
Zhang Yang looked at Wang Lansong curiously, this guy can't even know this Tang poem as the commander of Jinyiwei, right?
"Poof, what's the matter? Isn't this a poem by Wang Wei of the Tang Dynasty? I can't shoot it so obviously even if I pat myself on the back, right? ”
Zhang Yang laughed, pointed at Wang Lansong and smiled.
"There is growth, how far is it from the Ningxia Health Center?"
"It's about a day and a half away."
Wang Lansong thought for a moment and replied.
"Well, then don't worry, camp in place and rest."
Zhang Yang's words made Wang Lansong stunned.
"My lord, isn't it okay to camp here? You see it's very empty, and if the Tatar cavalry comes, it will be difficult for us to resist. ”
Zhang Yang couldn't help laughing.
"I'm still afraid that he won't come, the barracks and the grain and grass are separated by 500 meters, and no one is allowed to guard the grain and grass baggage, go, if the Tatars dare to come, let them learn a lesson."
After speaking, Zhang Yang turned over and dismounted, and beckoned everyone to stop, Zhang Yang was the chief general in the army, and he said that of course he would camp in place.
The people in front stopped and began to set up their tents, and the people behind slowly followed and began to set up camp, and at last the people in the back put together the grain and grass and sprinkled a large number of zama nails around it, and then went back to the camp.
In winter, it was very cold, and after Zhang Yang finished explaining what he should have explained, he went back to his big account to study the art of war.
In fact, Zhang Yang's arrangement is very simple, not that he has very good military talents, but because he knows what the purpose of the Tatars is if they come? It is nothing more than grabbing things, grabbing grain and grass.
On one side is unguarded grain and grass, and on the other side is an army of 16,000, as long as a fool knows how to choose, so Zhang Yang doesn't have to worry about his life at all.
As for the grain and grass? Along the way, the officials from all over the country did not prepare much, and the Tatars snatched it and snatched it, his purpose was not to lose a single soldier, then it would be fine, after all, in the minds of future generations, human life is more important than anything else.
Buried in a pot to make rice here, naturally there is a large thick smoke, even the strong wind outside the plug can not completely cover the traces of tens of thousands of people burying the pot to make rice, and soon a group of Tatars ten miles away noticed the situation here.
