Mo Zhi sighed: "When Grandpa and the general talked about the alliance, they said that the military and government belong to him, and the finance belongs to me, as long as his silver is used in practical matters, I can't stop it." Now that his money is used in practical matters, how can Grandpa break his word and gain weight? Ay...... It's no wonder that in the past two years, his progress has been too fast, no matter how fast the Mo family's silver is earned, it can't catch up with the speed at which he spends money. Do you know that once the war starts again, even if the Mo family is really criticized by the world and peers, Grandpa can only embezzle the money of the Chamber of Commerce. ”

"I'll go and talk to the general." Mo Yiqing said.

Mo Zhinian shook his head and said, "No." It's not so difficult that you have to push it to the general...... Besides, your grandfather and the Mo family can't afford to lose this person! ”

"Grandpa thinks that his grandson wants to meet him...... That shouldn't hurt, right? ”

Mo Zhi smiled bitterly: "Why are you so troubled? If you go and beg him once, it is equivalent to taking a step further from him. ”

Mo Yiqing smiled and said, "Sun Er thinks that he won't be that kind of person...... Besides, Grandpa seems to have forgotten that he has a bit of a stone into gold. ”

Mo was stunned for a moment, and thought for a while: "That...... You go to try? ”

"Yes."

"If it doesn't work, don't force him." Don't be obsessed with admonishing.

"Yes."

……。

Fang Guo'an was anxious.

was rejected by Wu Zheng three times, which made him anxious, and he sent Xuelian to bear the guilt of Jing Naked.

The generals under his jurisdiction took away a battalion without authorization, which is placed in any dynasty, and the commander's person is a big sin.

Fang Guoan didn't want to be marginalized by Wu Zheng's forces, he urgently needed to defend himself, in front of Wu Zheng.

Fortunately, Wu Zheng finally agreed to see Fang Guoan for the fourth time.

But as soon as Wu Zheng saw Fang Guoan, he didn't give him a chance to speak.

"How many people did Shen Zhiyuan take? How many guns? How much ammunition? How much stone grain? ”

Fang Guoan hurriedly replied: "Shen Zhiyuan took away three hundred and six people, including himself, in addition to three hundred and six people, each person took away five hundred and twenty-four guns, and the ammunition could not be accurately obtained, because the ammunition received by each battalion for training was summarized every ten days, and when Shen Zhiyuan left, the consumption of ammunition received was not clear, but he took away four large boxes of unopened ammunition from the warehouse. As for food, except for daily rations, almost nothing was brought. ”

Wu Zheng couldn't help but scold: "I really don't know whether to live or die!" ”

After scolding, Chong Fang Guoan said, "Go back." I know about it. ”

Fang Guoan was stunned for a moment, he hesitated: "The general doesn't intend to blame me?" ”

Wu Zheng said: "You can't stop him." ”

Fang Guoan understood what Wu Zheng meant, and he said guiltily: "Fang Mou is entrusted by the general. ”

Wu Zheng got up and stepped forward to reassure: "It's not too late to make amends. I also hope that Lord Fang will go back to fulfill his duties and not have similar incidents again. In addition, the training ammunition of each battalion must be collected daily and must not be left overnight! ”

Fang Guoan responded: "Huh." ”

After answering, Fang Guoan asked tentatively: "Doesn't the general plan to send troops to reinforce Shen Zhiyuan's department?" ”

Wu Zheng was silent for a while, and said: "Two thousand seven hundred musketeers, the loss in the first battle of Shaoxing Mansion is not small. Nowadays, there are not many troops that can be mobilized in Hangzhou. ”

Fang Guoan said: "There are still 3,000 people under Fang's command, if the general trusts Fang, Fang is willing to go north to reinforce Shen Zhiyuan and the water division." ”

Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "Three thousand people, I'm afraid it's a drop in the bucket." ”

Fang Guoan also thought that Wu Zheng disliked his soldiers, and hurriedly said: "The general may not know that when Qian Qiaogong trained the musketeers, Fang often trained these three thousand people together, although the shooting is not as skilled as the soldiers of the musket battalion, but the confidence is not far away. Moreover, the training of troops must also be carried out in actual combat, and if the general allows it, these 3,000 people can be driven by the general. ”

Wu Zheng looked at Fang Guoan in surprise.

It was not because Fang Guoan organized his subordinates to accompany the musket battalion for training without authorization, in fact, Wu Zheng did not stipulate that the 3,000 people of Fang Guoan's garrison military academy were not allowed to train muskets.

The so-called law does not prohibit it, and Wu Zheng has no intention of pursuing Fang Guoan for this.

Wu Zheng was surprised that Fang Guoan was willing to give up the military power in his hands.

In this world, military power is the real barrier to protect lives and interests.

People like Fang Guoan are even more familiar with the samadhi.

Wu Zheng kept Fang Guoan's 3,000 people and placed them far away from Hangzhou Mansion, in fact, in case Fang Guoan changed.

But now, Wu Zheng was indeed a little surprised by Fang Guoan's statement.

Is it sincere, or is it false?

Fang Guoan was also a little nervous, he was worried that Wu Zheng would refuse.

It's not that Fang Guoan is really brave and loyal, but because the situation is forcing Fang Guoan to get involved.

Most of Fang Guoan's 3,000 descendants were subordinates from when Fang Guoan suppressed Kou from Zuo Liangyu, and they were veterans who fought against Huguang with Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong.

This guard battalion has always been taken by Fang Guoan's side, and he is never willing to use it easily.

In other words, Fang Guoan was instigated by Duoduo to oppose the Ming Dynasty before, and if he sent this personal guard to attack Shaoxing City at the beginning, I am afraid that Wu Zheng would not be able to rush for reinforcements at all.

Of course, Fang Guoan also collapsed because of the collapse of more than 20,000 troops at that time, and he was out of proportion for a while.

But now, this army is placed in the military academy as a gatekeeper, which really makes these veterans unconvinced.

They are instigating Fang Guoan, no, to be precise, they are forcing Fang Guoan.

Soldiers, if you want to be looked up to, you have to make contributions on the battlefield.

Let these veterans watch the door, who can stand this kind of cold eyes?

In fact, Fang Guoxin also knew that once this continued, he would slowly be marginalized by the Northern Expeditionary Army, and he would slowly fade out of Wu Zheng's sight.

He was not reconciled.

Therefore, Fang Guoan let Shen Zhiyuan go, not only because he was afraid of the close relationship between Shen Zhiyuan and Wu Zheng, otherwise, even if Shen Zhiyuan led a battalion to escape from the military academy smoothly, Fang Guoan would have time to intercept him at the dock, even if he had already left the port, Fang Guoan could send a ship to the sea to chase him.

Fang Guoan is creating an opportunity, an opportunity to return to the big stage in troubled times.

And now, it's an opportunity.

Wu Zheng was overstretched and needed to use troops.

In times of emergency, when this army is used, it is inevitable to use the edge of the knife.

If you use it on the edge of the knife, you will have the opportunity to make military merits, and if you make military merits, you must be rewarded and promoted.

After promotion, the number of troops at his disposal is even greater.

Growing is a natural process.

Fang Guoan needs such an opportunity.

Wu Zheng thought for a while and said, "But once these 3,000 people leave the military academy, who will be responsible for the garrison of the military academy?" ”

Fang Guoan said: "There are still 3,000 cadets in the military academy, they have been training for three months, and they were originally going to be supplemented into the musket battalion and artillery battalion, but now they will take over the garrison military academy of our department, it should not be a problem." ”

Wu Zheng said: "Now the Ningbo government wants to newly compile the sea guard, and there are casualties in the four guards in this battle, adding up to nearly 20,000 vacancies. I have ordered the recruitment of 30,000 new soldiers, who need to be trained...... I'm thinking that Lord Fang will be responsible for the training of these 30,000 people, and Song An will be responsible for assisting Lord Fang, but Song An will take office, and it may be a later day. I don't know what Lord Fang thinks? ”
