In the crowd, someone separated the bustling flow of people like a water, and walked towards Min Yuanqi with difficulty.

Many flag soldiers spontaneously saluted Min Yuanqi when they left, and more flag soldiers who did not participate in the training were clustered around those comrades and friends who had returned from the bloody battle. It is quite obvious that after this time, Min Yuanqi's prestige in the hundred households will rise sharply, and the flag army and the remaining people under the hundred households will increase exponentially.

The people who came were Wang Mingyuan and Wang Ermei, obviously the two brothers and sisters did not go back to their own household last night, it is estimated that Wang Mingyuan borrowed Ding Ruqi or Guan Lei's house for one night.

The brother and sister saw the flag army disembarking in the crowd, and when they saw these flag soldiers lined up, they were also shocked by the murderous aura of the flag army. When he passed by mistake, the murderous aura and the strong smell of blood made Wang Mingyuan's face pale, although he was the son of a military attaché, if he did not win the promotion of Jinshi in the future, he would have to inherit the position of a hundred households, but Wang Mingyuan was already an out-and-out scholar, and the word martial arts was no longer touched. However, the second sister Wang looked much calmer, the brother and sister got closer to see Wang Sanyi's figure, and saw his father standing beside Min Yuanqi for a long time, Wang Mingyuan looked excited, and the second sister was already red.

"I've seen my father." Wang Mingyuan crossed his hands and saluted, and said: "My father is tired, this encounter is really wronged, but fortunately it is safe and sound, which is really gratifying." ”

Wang Mingyuan's words were too unpleasant, and Wang Ermei frowned on the side and said: "Brother, you don't need to say much, the people in our guard should be the same enemy in this matter, don't talk about anything involved." ”

Wang Sanyi frowned at first, the eldest son was so good at reading and reading that he couldn't speak with his brain! If it is normal season, now this kind of situation, the emperor in Beijing does not know whether he can save his life, the Ming does not know what the chaos will become, and this side does not know when it will be at war with a large stream of rogues, at this time like Min Yuanqi, such a military attache with excellent force, prestige, and courage is very rare, and it is absolutely possible to keep a party safe, at this time, even if you have to beware of being affected by it, and do not go to catch up, but you must not say anything that is involved, so as not to offend this person, not only will not be protected by it, but also may provoke a strong enemy, Invite revenge!

Fortunately, the second sister is awake! Wang Sanyi hurriedly said to Min Yuanqi: "What the second sister said is that we are all in the same vein of the Wei Institute, and our voices are connected, so we can't talk about it!" ”

When he was just rescued last night, Wang Sanyi was still alienated, how could Min Yuanqi not understand the change of mind of the other party, because he saw clearly the strength of the flag army under his command, and thought of the current troubled times, force is the real thing to rely on?

Not to mention anything else, a warlord like Liu Zeqing did not listen to the orders of the Beijing division at all, and when he went to Nanzhili, Shi Kefa, the secretary of the military department in charge of southern military affairs, did not dare to restrain his unauthorized entry into Huai'an and spy on Yangzhou. And Shi Kefa said that he wanted to go north to King Qin, and ordered the assembly of soldiers and horses everywhere, but the towns did not listen, and the orders of the guards did not work, after these things spread, the damage to the central authority was greater, although Wang Sanyi was only a hundred households, the situation should be somewhat clear, so after determining that the banner army under the command of Min Yuanqi was indeed the elite, there was a fundamental change in attitude.

However, the second sister Wang, sixteen or seventeen years old, shrewd and vigilant, from yesterday to this morning, has shown extraordinary opinions, speaks and acts very decently, much stronger than her talented brother.

Min Yuanqi couldn't help but glance at the second sister, her figure was slender, a head taller than ordinary girls, her appearance was delicate and delicate, but there was a little resolute and resolute between her eyebrows.

"We won't bother Yuan Qi here." Wang Sanyi arched his hand and said with a smile: "I want to go back quickly and arrange for someone to go to Guannan County to buy grain again, otherwise many people will run out of cooking." ”

"Wang Baihu, please," Min Yuanqi said calmly: "Food is really important, it is related to people's hearts, and we will send people here to buy grain as soon as possible." ”

Min Yuanqi did not dare to delay, the grain stock is too small, it is easy to cause people's hearts to fluctuate, after the Wang family's father and daughter and a few flag soldiers left, he immediately sent Min Yuanzhong and Gao Cuncheng, Yang Zhijin and the three of them accompanied Han Sen, and then led a team of flag troops, with more than 100 taels of silver to drive the boat to Guannan County, although these people did not sleep all night, but food is the first priority, and these people can only work hard to buy food.

Everyone did not complain, on the contrary, they were very excited, although they had little time to rest, but everyone's faces were dancing with eyebrows, it seemed that everyone did not dare to talk nonsense about the details, but it was inevitable that they would brag a few words, in the exclamation and emotion of the family, everyone was chest straight, feeling supreme glory.

Of course, the events of last night make people feel a little surprised and frightened, as well as faint panic and fear, but after that hearty battle, the sense of pleasure, the sense of power above ordinary people, and the restored sense of honor of the soldiers really make these flag soldiers feel happy and proud.

Min Yuanqi faintly felt that an elite soldier would be made in his hands, and to be honest, this was something he couldn't imagine.

Originally, Min Yuanqi just wanted to have the power of self-preservation in this troubled world, and there was a reliable force protection around him, so he talked about making money and having capital to go south, but now he has a feeling that the flag soldiers of the guard who are regarded as useless by the imperial court, if someone really drills carefully and gives them enough treatment and equipment, the elite should not be under those recruits, or even above them!

So, by expanding the scale of training flag soldiers and mastering stronger force, can we go further? While watching Han Sen and the others sail away, Min Yuanqi was also contemplating.

……

As a palm print of a thousand households, Li Kecheng is a unique figure in the city of thousands of households in Yunti Pass, until a long time after noon, he was surrounded by several family members, riding a horse to the yamen of the thousand households to work.

Recently, there is no major incident in the guard, and what it has to worry about is the major event of transporting grain to the north. But so far this year, the cao boat has not set off, and no one in Nanjing has urged, even if it is ordered by King Qin, the guards have no measures, and Nanjing is helpless. In this way, the prestige of Shi Kefa's own soldier is even worse than before, if many military attachés of the guard have understood, Shi Benbing's previous experience, prestige, and the general person in charge of military affairs in the south personally appointed by the emperor, under these halos, he is still a person with a fairly ordinary talent, wrist, and machine changes are quite ordinary, and the courage is insufficient, the governance is not decisive and ruthless enough, and the lack of these qualities, even if he is in a high position, the people below will not be really convinced, and he can't suppress the arrogant soldiers, so what's the use of just having an official position?

Li Kecheng's views could not have been so far-reaching, but he neither prepared the soldiers, horses, and salaries according to the order of King Qin, nor did he continue to prepare for the northward march of the boats, not only the Yunti Pass, which is a thousand households, but also the entire Dahewei and Huai'anwei more than ten thousand households. The people's hearts are back, which can be seen from this.

The city of Yunti Pass is more than three miles in radius, slightly smaller than the county seat, and it is still one of the best cities here at the mouth of the Huai River. After Li Kecheng walked out of the gate of the mansion, all the residents and pedestrians along the way, whether they were flag soldiers, civilian businessmen, or military families, all bowed to the lord of the thousand households, for fear of offending the thousand households and causing unforeseen disasters.

Li Kecheng didn't care too much about these, of course he had this kind of prestige in the city of thousands of households, but out of the city, even the scoundrels like Yang Shida and Guan Er didn't take him seriously, and recently his banner army fried out a boatload of salt, but due to the dispute between Min Yuanqi and Yang Shida's gang, this ship of salt did not dare to go to Huai'an Mansion to sell, even if it was to Guannan, Shanyang, you need to drive a boat, if you go to Haizhou by land, the place is too far and the freight is too high, and the profit will be reduced by at least three percent, which is really worth the loss.

In addition, Wang Sanyi, a hundred households, had an accident, Li Kecheng, as a thousand households, could not ignore it, and with these troubles in his heart, Li Kecheng looked depressed.

After entering the Qianhu official hall, a deputy Qianhu stepped forward to greet him, Li Kecheng only nodded to the other party, and a few officials were waiting with documents in their hands, Li Kecheng waved his hand, signaling that he would not work for the time being.

In fact, there are not a lot of official affairs in the Qianhu Institute, ordnance, grain grains, tuntian, drills, Caoyun, but before that, in addition to Caoyun to be taken seriously, the rest of the official affairs have been no one to do, not to mention the Qianhu office, the Wei commander has a commander, two people with the same knowledge, four people, and the town, experience, governor, officer, cang, cang, cang, responsible for the guard's tuntian, drills, manufacturing ordnance, shipbuilding, health, warehousing, Caoyun and other things, but as early as a hundred years ago, almost no one cared about the affairs of the military subordinates of the guard, At this time, even the luck has stopped, how can Li Kecheng have any mind to ask about those things that are not urgent?

"Brother Min." Li Kecheng directly entered Min Qiande's public hall, did not salute, stood in front of the door and said: "The trouble caused by your good nephew has affected everyone, and Wang Sanyi, who was also harmed, was arrested by Yang Shida and his gang, this matter has greatly damaged the face of our thousands of households, what do you think?" ”

Min Qiande actually didn't sleep all night, his eyes were a little swollen, he was over fifty years old, and his official position was a thousand households, Li Kecheng because Min Qiande's status was similar to his own, and because the Min family had a lot of roots in Dahewei, Li Kecheng was also born in a family of military attachés in Dahewei, and they were still polite when they spoke to each other, but at this time today, Li Kecheng was a little torn in his face.

Last night, Min Qiande ordered his son Min Yuanzhi to give the family armor to Min Yuanqi, and then Min Yuanzhi said that Min Yuanqi and Han Sen and others left by boat, and Min Qiande knew nothing about the rest of the matter.

The old man was extremely worried in his heart, unconsciously, the status, glory, and safety of the Min family seemed to be tied to Min Yuanqi alone, to this point, Min Qiande had not considered it at all in advance, the Min family, like the Ming Dynasty, seemed to be in the midst of ups and downs, with Min Yuanqi, a junior, rising, revealing extraordinary, of course Min Qiande was extremely happy and willing to support, but the situation suddenly developed to this point, but it was something that Min Qiande did not imagine at all.

Once the night attack is unsuccessful and suffers heavy losses, or even Min Yuanqi dies, or he fights a snake and does not die, but is bitten by Yang Shida and Guan Er, the situation will develop to an extremely serious point.

Min Qiande asked himself to be resolute and resolute, but at this moment he realized that he had been comfortable for a long time, and once a real threat hit, he was afraid that he would not be able to bear it at all.

At this time, Min Qiande also faintly regretted it, he secretly supported Min Yuanqi, on the one hand, he hoped that a real talent would come out of the clan and be able to provoke the family beam, on the other hand, it was also because Li Kecheng was powerful, and he couldn't raise his head in the thousands of households.

"What do you say about Li Qianhu?" Min Qiande glanced at Li Kecheng, feeling impatient, but he couldn't deal with this person.

"Min Yuanqi doesn't want to do it if he tries a hundred households, I intend to demote him to a small banner, and then order him to pay a hundred taels of silver, go to Shuiguan to redeem Wang Sanyi, and then appoint the new hundred households in charge, Yang Shida and his gang have no excuses, we have this sincerity, he is not good at deceiving people too much, and after that, everyone will go to Huai'an on a salt boat, or go to buy grain everywhere, and they will not always be troubled by Yang Shida."
