Early the next morning, early in the morning, Jia Qiang had just gotten up and was about to go out for morning exercises, when she saw Mama Wu coming, saying that the word came in earlier, and many foreign guests came, including the lords of Zhenguo Gong and Li Guogong, as well as the uncle of the Wang family.

Jia Qiang knew that it must have been the night before that had reached their ears, and she was still satisfied that they could come today.

After all, Jia Qiang still doesn't know who the remaining three opponents are, except for one Cao Gang, and it is impossible for them to know the Niu family and the Liu family.

At this time, it seems that at least these founding heroes are really aware of the need for common prosperity, rather than being like those other families, who are still immersed in drunken dreams and death.

Under the service of Qingwen and Xiangling, Jia Qiang quickly dressed properly, cleaned it briefly, and rushed to the front hall.

……

"Yo, all your uncles are here!"

Looking at the full house, Jia Qiang was really unexpected, and said hello.

But if you look at it carefully, it is still the twelve families who followed all the way to the end, and the other is the Wang family.

And the young people behind each of them should be their children and nephews, all of whom are very young.

Although Jia Qiang has a low rank, his status is the most expensive, so as soon as he came, everyone in the hall stood up to greet him.

Seeing Jia Qiang's face as usual, Niu Jizong was the first to laugh and said: "It is rumored everywhere outside that Brother Qiang, you have been hit hard, and you are all vomiting three liters of blood in a daze, and you don't know whether you are alive or dead at home." Now it seems that the rumors are the least credible. ”

Jia Qiang smiled, these rumors were originally released by him, he smiled: "Although I was calculated and the loss was not small, I will not vomit blood for this matter." ”

Everyone looked at him a few times brightly or secretly, and found that except for the faint blackening of his eyes, his face was as usual, and he looked refreshed, which did not look like he was extremely angry and vomited blood.

Wang Ziteng nodded and said: "Brother Qiang'er's face does not change when there is a big change, this kind of calmness, it is us old guys, how many people can have it?" How many young heroes in this world can only take the road of the wind, and when they encounter a contrarian trend, they will collapse. Like Brother Qiang, how many people regard the reverse journey as idlers? ”

Jia Qiang saw that everyone in the hall was ready to boast, waved her hand and smiled: "It's all your own people, what are you talking about?" ”

Liu Fang asked in a deep voice: "Brother Qiang, who was the black hand the night before?" Yesterday, you copied the Nancheng Dayue Gambling House, could it be that the Cao Gang did it? ”

Jia Qiang bowed slightly: "I only know that one of them is the Cao Gang, and the other three don't know." But it doesn't matter, sooner or later this revenge will be avenged. It's just that right now, it's not the time yet. ”

Xie Whale, a second-class man from the Dingcheng Marquis Mansion, said angrily: "I can't say it, it's the poisonous hand of the Yuanping heroes!" That group of brutes suppressed the founding of the country everywhere, and the military salary was only paid to thirty percent, and the bison were bitten, I had never seen such a black-hearted and lowly person! The soldiers' salaries are just enough, and they don't even refuse to send out the weapons in the arsenal, so that the Fengtai battalion can go to war with burning sticks? Those bitches raised by the military department will smash their dog's heads sooner or later! ”

When Wang Ziteng heard this, his old face turned red.

Although he is the secretary of the Ministry of War, he can be the left and right attendants of the Ministry of War, the heads of each hall, and the officials of the four Qing Officials Divisions of the Military Election, the Car Driver, the Staff, and the Arsenal, as well as the officials of the Administration Department such as the Huitong Pavilion, the Good News Office, the Supervision and Destruction Office, the Month Office, and the Seal Hall, all of which are people from the Yuanping Meritorious Heroes.

The military department is more direct than the household department, and Wang Ziteng is nominally the big Sima, but in fact he has almost no real power.

The power of the military department to transfer troops to fight originally belonged to the Military Aircraft Department, and only assumed logistics and other positions, how could Wang Ziteng win the two martial marquis of Yuanping Xunchen?

No matter how you say it, he is also the secretary of the military department, a dignified Sima!

The Fengtai battalion under his command can only allocate thirty percent of the salary, and even the weapons in the arsenal are not distributed.

At this moment, Xie Whale scolded away, and Wang Ziteng only felt embarrassed.

I heard Jia Qiang laugh warmly: "Uncle Xie, you are still so short-tempered." Yuan Ping is big, and it's not a matter of one or two days, don't talk about us, who is not afraid of people of insight in the court? Although Wang Butang is a military secretary, it is also roasted on the fire. This is still because of the internal division of Yuanping heroes, and the two sides almost played out their brains in order to fight for this position, so Uncle Wang sat on it. In fact, it is the same for everyone, and it is difficult to make a difference. ”

When Wang Ziteng heard this, he was very grateful, but he still bowed his hand and said, "I'm ashamed! ”

Seeing this, Xie Whale was embarrassed, and laughed: "General, I didn't scold you, and those balls didn't treat you as a military secretary at all." ”

Hu Shen of the Marquis of Anding asked Jia Qiang: "Brother Qiang, this matter is really demoralizing. The soldiers and horses of the Fengtai battalion were all old pawns over there. The generals and captains of the various departments and battalions and even the team leaders are all from that side. There was already a gap, and now even the soldiers' salaries are only half of what they used to be, and even the weapons damaged during training cannot be replaced, and the archers' bows can only stare dryly when they are broken...... Now it is really difficult, and the prestige is lost. If this matter is not resolved, I am afraid it will not work. ”

When Jia Qiang heard this, she looked at Hu Shen and said, "Now the left and right servants of the military department are Changxing Hou Geng Nian and Yingchuan Hou Fu Lian?" ”

Hu Shen nodded, but before he could speak, the Yingyang Marquis Mansion attacked the second-class male Jiang into the sea and said loudly: "It's these two ball-grabbing dog things, they have always been flying and domineering, and we are the same as the founding heroes, in the eyes of their two dogs, I'm afraid that they are not as good as bed bugs, and they deceive people too much!" ”

Jiang Ruhai was also one of the founding heroes who followed Jia Qiang all the way to the door of Li Yao, the Duke of Fuguo, that night.

Jia Qiang glanced at him, nodded, and said, "I understand, give me a few days to think about countermeasures." Yes, there is still a chance. ”

Sun Ze, a second-class man from Zhongyang Bofu, said: "Ning Hou, why don't you directly ask Lin Shilang of the household department to help?" ”

Jia Qiang smiled and said, "How can I help?" The military department reports the military expenses to the household department, and the household department then distributes the military expenses to the military department, and then allocates them layer by layer. This is a court rule, how can my husband change it? ”

Niu Jizong and others also waved their hands and said: "You must not do this, if you don't cause a big problem." ”

After everyone was silent for a while, Niu Jizong, like Maitreya, smiled and said, "It's okay, let's think about it together, and then discuss it in two days." I won't mention this for now...... Brother Qiang, I heard that you have lost a lot of manpower, you see this, we can't help you with anything else, and you are not short of gold and silver. My eldest son, who was not pampered when he was young, worked with me for six or seven years, became a school captain, and he still talked about the past when he was a fist and foot shooting. It's a useless thing, but if I can learn from you by your side, I'll be satisfied. ”

Jia Qiang was shocked when she heard this, and saw the seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man behind Niu Jizong coming out of the ranks, and a Qian'er hit the ground and said in a deep voice: "The last general Niucheng, see Ning Hou!" ”

Jia Qiang sighed, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Get up, people of the same generation, how can this be reasonable?" ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard Liu Fang smile and say, "Although they are peers, there is a difference between respect and inferiority." I also have one here, my eldest son Liu Jue, who is about the same as Niucheng, and he knows each other well. ”

Liu Jue also stepped forward and bowed: "The last general, Liu Jue, see Ning Hou!" ”

After these two began, the others did not need to be introduced by their respective Lao Tzu, so they came out one after another and bowed:

"Humble Qi Amber ......"

"Humble Junin ......"

"Humble Xie Qiang ......"

"Humble Jiang Cang......"

"Humble Sun Chang ......"

In addition to Niu Cheng and Liu Jue, a total of ten young people finally said loudly in unison: "See Ning Hou!" ”

Jia Qiang was upright, and after screaming in a deep voice, she looked at the adults with tears and laughter, and said, "What is this doing?" I appreciate the kindness, but what I lose is some people who inquire about the news, so I can't let these brothers do these things? ”

Wang Ziteng smiled, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Qiang, let's think about it, rely on steady and steady, and work hard, we will never win the other side." Now it seems that it is still on your side, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, but there are more opportunities. Now that you are the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, see if they are useful, you can put them in the Soldiers and Horses, even if you are a small official. My two sons, Wang Yun and Wang An, are also handed over to you. You can rest assured, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is also in the army, and military law is important. Life and death are fateful, and wealth is in the sky. Spelling it out is creation, and if they really lose their lives, it is also their lives. No one will depend on you! ”

Jia Qiang frowned and said, "I'm not afraid of responsibility...... It's just that most of these brothers are veterans who have been at the bottom of the army for several years, and now they are not good to be a captain in the Fengtai battalion? ”

Niu Jizong shook his head and said: "Brother Qiang, at present, whether it is the Fengtai Battalion, the Xishan Ruijian Battalion, or even the 12th Regiment Battalion in the capital, there is no chance of real combat training in a short period of time, and you can't move when you are idle. However, the Five Cities Terracotta Division, which was not in the eyes of the past before, is now under your command, bringing out unexpected meanings.

Brother Qiang, whether it is a soldier or a general, there is no chance of actual combat, after all, he is a good thing. Even if you hunt down Jiangyang thieves a few times, it is good to set up troops in various streets and cities. Brother Qiang, if you can really capture the more than 20,000 people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, wouldn't it be much better than being a captain in the Fengtai camp? ”

In fact, there are some taboo words that are difficult to speak, but everyone understands it in their hearts.

Don't say that it is the Fengtai battalion, that is, the 12th regiment battalion in the capital, who dares to deploy troops without will?

In Gyeonggi County, it is the sin of the whole family to lose their heads!

But the Five Cities Terracotta Division is different, and this system is the only military system that can walk freely in the Shenjing City.

If you can really train 20,000 soldiers and horses...... That might be a big deal!

If it weren't for that, how could Wang Ziteng say anything, life and death are in the sky......

Jia Qiang naturally understood this truth, and after a while, he pondered for a while and said, "Let me think about it, I still have to think of a good name for this matter." Otherwise, it is easy to fall into the mouth. In this way, on the first day of the next month, in the courtyard of the East Road of the Taiping Guild Hall, I want to fight with the children of the Yuanping heroes, how about it, do you dare to go together, and are you stubborn in the ring? ”

Niu Cheng, Liu Jue, Hu Ning, and Xie Qiang said loudly: "I dare! ”

Although Jiang Cang, Xiong Zhe, and Chang Jin were half a beat slower, they still gave up their hands one after another: "I've wanted to compete with them for a long time." ”

Liu Fang reminded: "Is it Dong Chuan's boys? Don't blame me, the world, for beating you, Dong Chuan's few are all trained by following them Lao Tzu on the nine sides, dealing with barbarians and fighting in actual combat, which is fundamentally different from you. ”

Jia Qiang smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, what are you afraid of winning or losing?" As long as they have the courage to go to the ring, they will practice with Sao Tartar, and we will practice with them. It doesn't matter if you lose 99 times, as long as we can win the last time, we don't even lose! ”

"Good!!"

When a group of adults heard this, they cheered in unison!

All of them looked excited......

And a group of yamen looked at it with curiosity, not understanding what kind of ecstasy soup Jia Qiang poured into Lao Tzu, whom they were in awe of in their hearts......

There are some things, no matter how much you hear them, as long as you don't see them with your own eyes, you may not believe them.

Jia Qiang naturally understood the thoughts of her peers, but she only smiled.

There are times when they open their eyes......

……

When it was almost noon, Niu Jizong, Liu Fang and other twelve families left with their children and nephews, but Wang Ziteng stayed, and said to Jia Qiang with a ashamed face: "Brother Qiang, Baoyu and his aunt are a woman, listening to slander, and wrote a letter to Baoyu and his mother, it's really ridiculous, don't go to your heart." ”

Jia Qiang shook her head and said solemnly: "It's true that I didn't go to my heart, but my uncle still has to warn her that she shouldn't interfere in the outside world." Now our situation is already very difficult, and we must not tolerate a fire in the backyard! ”

Wang Ziteng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "There will be no next time. ”

After Jia Qiang nodded, Wang Ziteng said again: "I still hope Brother Qiang, because of the stupid woman of my Wang family, I am angry with Baoyu and his mother." She...... It's also a fool. ”

Jia Qiang smiled and said, "I'm a junior, how can I be angry?" The old lady didn't say yes either. ”

When Wang Ziteng heard this, he was relieved.

Jia Qiang blames the Li family for nothing, but if she angers Mrs. Wang, it will inevitably affect the support for the Wang family, and something will happen.

In the end, he pointed to Wang An and Wang Yundao: "Brother Qiang is not an outsider, and I won't hide some ugliness from you." Brother An and Brother Yun'er did not have a good time in the Wang family. I am busy with business all the year round, and sometimes I don't take care of my family's affairs. Besides, the Li family once had a great favor to me, so ...... I want to entrust his two brothers to you under Brother Qiang, but if you can grow a little, the Wang family is grateful! ”

Seeing that Wang An and Wang Yun bowed down again, Jia Qiang asked them to get up, and she also understood what Wang Ziteng meant.

In this, not only does he expose his family ugliness and entrust him to take care of it, but I am afraid that there is also a bit of confession...... It's a bit ugly to call it a hostage.

He was not hypocritical, nodded and said, "Okay, let them enter the Dongcheng Terracotta Division first, and start from the bottom." Sharpen it and then promote. ”

Wang Ziteng was a sensible person, and said with a smile: "Brother Qiang's cousin-in-law is also a small official, and he has made so many contributions, they should start from the bottom." ”

After Wang Ziteng said goodbye and left, Jia Qiang sent someone to place the honest Wang An and Wang Yun in the front yard.

He returned to the backyard and prepared to write an impeachment note with the first-class general's seal that had just arrived.

I didn't want to just enter the door, but I saw Ping'er holding a handkerchief, lying on a few cases in the middle hall and wiping it.

From behind, the figure is moving......
