Chapter 519: Li Huamei's godsons
However, Shi Lang still did not go to Denglai to deliver the letter.
Under Mo Yu's strong opposition, Li Huamei sent a captain and a battalion officer to Jiaozhou on a fast boat carrying the battle report from the Tashan front.
"Miss, let Zhang Xiaohu Zhang, who is stationed in Jiaozhou Bay, lead the water diversion division to come and bombard Tashan with artillery fire to strengthen the frontal firepower!"
Regarding Mo Yu's construction, Li Huamei readily agreed.
Let Zhang Xiaoliuzi's dozens of ships and nearly 1,000 artillery pieces idle in Jiaozhou Bay, which is a great crime for the Tashan battlefield that is in full swing and for Zhang Xiaohu himself.
Hearing Mo Yu's low voice to Li Huamei's second proposal, Li Huamei couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"Uncle Mo, this matter is relatively big, and it is not something that our Nanyue Army family can decide. You have to have the strength of Guan Ningjun to die! ”
"Yes! Eldest Lady, so the last general also wrote a letter to the uncle to explain the matter. With the lord's deep understanding of righteousness, I don't think there will be any anger at the eldest lady's actions. Mo Yu had a light and breezy look.
The old people in the Ningyuan Bofu and the Nanyue Army all knew that among Li Shouhan's children, the eldest lady Li Huamei was the most spoiled. It is rumored that if it weren't for the fact that the eldest lady is a daughter, I am afraid that the candidate for the big position would have been made public long ago.
"Since Uncle Mo has already explained this matter to his father, then I am not in charge of it! At best, it was a last-minute decision. Hearing Mo Yu explain the situation, Li Huamei's pretty face immediately dispersed, and an incomparably bright smile bloomed.
This laugh. happened to be seen clearly by Shi Lang, who was sitting opposite her, and suddenly, Shi Lang suddenly felt a movement in his heart, and then he realized that this scarlet-winged tiger was also so good-looking when he smiled!
Early the next morning.
A low but shocking drum sounded in the camp of the Nanyue Army.
In the midst of the drums, the hurried war horses galloped back and forth, and one by one the generals of the Ningyuan Army rushed to the gate of Hongluo Mountain, rolled the saddle and dismounted and stood solemnly.
At today's meeting, the generals of all battalions in Ningyuan Town, and the guerrillas have all arrived.
Everyone was a little frightened and excited, and they were mixed in one place. Ask each other what we're going to do today. The county lord gathered everyone and didn't know what to do.
The successive onslaughts a few days ago, although they did not conquer Tashan, also let the soldiers and horses of Ningyuan Town see the combat power of the Nanyue army. Since the two families have joined forces to fight. Ningyuan Town's food and drink expenses were all allocated from the Nanyue Army. I can't help but they don't come.
Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of Ningyuan Town, held the scabbard of the sword in his hand, and let the sea breeze lift his mink cloak up and down. It is different from the usual court ginseng. Today's court counselor instinctively felt that something important was bound to happen about his poverty and wealth. Therefore, he just waited at the gate with a stern appearance, occasionally scanning the whispering subordinates on the left and right with a falcon-like gaze.
The officers who were swept by his gaze immediately closed their mouths obediently as if they had been burned by coals!
In this Liaodong War, Wu Sangui can be said to be in the limelight, starting from the beginning of his cooperation with Wu Biao, he crushed the rest of the seven towns to death, almost leaving no room for people to turn over.
On the day that Hong Chengchou was surrounded by Huang Taiji in Guangning, some people even commented, "Inspector Hong was ambushed and besieged by the slave chieftains, which was completely caused by improper use of people!" If it weren't for the fact that all the generals had the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and still made the two generals Wu the vanguard, there would be no danger of being trapped! ”
For such a wind comment, Wu Sangui is very calm.
His military exploits are enough, even if the soldiers of Inspector Hong are defeated and killed, the court will investigate it, and the board will not hit him. On the contrary, because of the exploits of several major wars and his background in the Liaoxi Jiangmen Group, as well as the tens of thousands of elite troops in his hands, the imperial court also promoted him to an official. This has been the usual method used by the imperial court to treat the military town of Liaodong for many years. How many supervisors and managers have changed are like this, they have long been accustomed to it, and they have also explored a set of effective corresponding means from it.
But the eldest lady of the Nanyue Army in front of him, the county lord of Ning Yuanbo, what kind of road is today, but he is at a loss for money. Since you don't know what to do, then make a good gesture and see it with the courtesy of your subordinates.
Anyway, from any point of view, it should be seen with the courtesy of subordinates.
A trumpet sounded, shaking the gate slightly.
Immediately afterwards, the drum music inside and outside the second gate sounded, and the Chinese army junior colonel held the flag and ordered the arrow to shout loudly, and the general's order was conveyed.
One by one, the sentry posts passed the order over, and the soldiers of the Guards Brigade guarding the gate moved away from the horses outside the gate, allowing the generals of Ningyuan Town to enter. This formation made the officers of the Ning Yuan Army, who were still laughing and talking, couldn't help but put away their playful heart and replaced it with a dignified one.
In the sound of drum music and door officials, Wu Sangui led his subordinate generals to step on the high-spirited drum music, and the armor was bright into the camp of the Nanyue Army.
The hour is on time. Li Huamei's handsome tent.
The generals of the Nanyue Army and the Ningyuan Army sat separately. Li Shouhan has the title of the president of aiding and suppressing the army, and he controls Denglai, Shandong, Jimen and other places, and when it comes to the Nanyue Army and the Liaodong Army, they are all under his control. In the handsome case, there are swords, seals, arrows and other things given by Emperor Chongzhen, and the chair covered with tiger skin is empty, and today's pig's foot Li Huamei is sitting on the left side of the handsome case, with a brocade embroidered robe, and the armor in it is wiped dazzling.
If other officials put on such a show, it is indispensable for Ning Yuanjun, a group of veterans, to make a sneer in their hearts, compared with Yang Hao, Xiong Tingbi, Wang Huazhen, Yuan Chonghuan and other successive leaders in Liaodong, today's battle of Li Huamei can only be regarded as a small scene that does not enter the stream. However, these etiquette pomp and circumstance depend on strength to endorse.
At this time, dozens of huge ships anchored on the sea, thousands of elite military horses in the camp, and inexhaustible food and ammunition that seemed to be as inexhaustible as the sea were all Li Huamei's confidence in speaking.
In the eyes of this group of proud soldiers and fierce generals of the Ning Yuan Army. The delicate little girl in front of her speaks far better than the emperor Lao Tzu who is far away in the capital.
"General Changbo."
Li Huamei calmly accepted the great gifts of dozens of officers of the Nanyue military camp and above and the guerrilla officers of the Ningyuan Army. Whether it is based on the law of the court or the law of the jungle based on strength alone, she is qualified to accept such etiquette.
"Mark it in! Please show me the county! ”
"This is the sword given by the emperor to the father of the family, the lord of this county trespassed once today, and handed it over to you on behalf of the father of the family. The matter of the former enemy's command of the Battle of Tower Hill will be entrusted to you by the lord of this county. I am below the officers of the Nanyue military camp, and the officers and soldiers below the generals of the Ningyuan Army, if there are those who are greedy for life, afraid of death, afraid of cowardice, and do not advance, they will be killed with this sword! ”
"Mr. Wu. My Guards Brigade has set aside a battalion of men to put under your command. If there is one who does not obey your military discipline, he will be the enemy of all the officers and men of our Nanyue Army, and he can be captured and killed on the spot! ”
Although this was said by Li Huamei, who looked like a little delicate lady, it was not so powerful at first glance. Even after listening to these military sticks, there is quite a bit of a girl's coquettish taste. But that wasn't your average murderous statement. A Shang Fang sword given by the emperor to Ning Yuanbo. The first battalion can be regarded as an elite guards brigade in the Nanyue Army, and in this way, together with the command of the former enemy, it was handed over to Wu Sangui, what does this power mean? !
Wu Sangui almost knelt down and kowtowed to Li Huamei a few times!
There you have these. He can justifiably dispose of the generals in Ningyuan Town who are not subordinate to him and who are not his descendants, and then annex the men and horses of each battalion. Since then, Ningyuan Town has become the identity of the Wu family!
Wu Sangui's heart floated into the sky, but the deputy generals, generals, and guerrillas in Ningyuan Town were not happy, this is obviously a button made by the two of you, and you plan to eat the belongings of our people?! Some people have begun to calculate in their hearts, whether to arrange for their henchmen to make noise in the camp, or even mutiny, to give Wu Sangui and Li Huamei in front of them a little color.
"There is a way that the emperor is not a hungry soldier. The lord of this county also knows that the arrears of wages in my Ming army are very common at the moment. For this reason, the lord of the county, in the name of his father, sent dozens of quartermasters to various battalions and departments to supervise the salary. If there is a shortage of food and salary during the war, you will come to talk to me Li Huamei! ”
"In today's battle of Tashan, what my Nanyue army eats, what your Ningyuan army will eat, and the soldiers will receive as much military pay as they are rated! How much is in arrears in your camp, and how much is empty, the lord of the county does not ask. However, if you cringe when you fight, intending to maintain your strength, hum, the law of the three-foot country is designed for you! ”
In a word, Ning Yuanjun's lieutenant general Zuo's love is like a roller coaster, one will go to the sky, and the other will go to the ground. Almost all of them were drenched in sweat on their backs.
"As long as you fight hard, if you lose one soldier in this battle, I will make up one for you, and you will make up for all of them and add three members! The lord of this county has made it clear to his father that he will give you all the Tuntian soldiers of my Ningyuan Bofu in Shandong, and I feel that I can change if I am not qualified. As for you, the lord of this county has thought about what kind of pension you plan to ask for after you die before you go into battle, if you yourself are unfortunately martyred, you can declare what you want, in addition to the official position, the silver money and the land are casual, the father and the lord of the county will apply to the court on your behalf, if the emperor does not give it, I will give it to the Uncle Mansion of Ningyuan! ”
"When a soldier dies in battle, there are also pensions, coffins, and money for burning and burying! The beheading was given a silver dollar according to the reward issued by Governor Hong before! In addition, after the war, if you are willing to disarm and return to the field and have enough beheadings, you can go to Nanzhong to reclaim, and it is not a problem to have dozens of acres of good paddy fields and be a landlord with plenty of food and clothing! ”
The wealth and prosperity of Nanzhong have long been rumored by the merchants who came and went from the south to the north, so that the ears of everyone present have been grinded out, if those big-headed soldiers know that they have won enough heads, they can take the silver dollars of white flowers to Nanzhong to become a small landlord, this temptation is undoubtedly huge.
Just when everyone was thinking about how to take advantage of the opportunity of this young and ignorant eldest lady to salvage for themselves, a discordant voice interrupted everyone's infinite expectations for silver, official positions, soldiers and horses, fields and houses, and land.
"County Lord, if you talk like this, the last general won't like to hear it!"
A guerrilla jumper in Ning Yuan's army came out and refuted Li Huamei impassionedly and righteously.
Wu Sangui and the others followed the sound and looked fixedly, and the guerrilla who spoke was Qin Shouren of the guerrilla battalion in Ningyuan Town. The image of this person in the eyes of his colleagues is not good for leading troops to fight. Only by deducting military salaries and grass, smuggling for profit, speculating in camps, sycophants and flattering quite a lot of experience, over the years, the accumulated family wealth is very rich, and it is now said that he is preparing to seek the post of general.
This person is about to jump out and say this at this time, what is he going to do? Could it be that he really planned to use his own Six Yang Leader to try the Shang Fang Sword in Li Huamei's hand? Everyone can't help but wait and see what this guy will do next.
"What is killed in battle, one person makes up for another, and what reward is left to speak. Lao Tzu is not rare! Lao Tzu has been in the army since the day he tied his hair. I've already thrown this stinky skin on the battlefield! Fighting for the Ming Dynasty, I never cared about personal gains and losses, as long as I could fight the Tartars, what if I threw more than 100 catties of flesh and blood in Tashan? But there is one thing. I'm a poor man. My mother died early when I was a child. It's sad to think about it. Therefore, I have a request......"
Qin Shouren's next words. Not only did it shock Wu Sangui and the others to see a golden star, but it also made the eyes of Li Huamei, Mo Yu, Shi Lang, He Yifei and other officers of the Southern Guangdong Army who were present dark, and some of them were so grumpy that they almost jumped up and pressed this guy to the ground and beat him violently.
Only Li Peiting, who was drinking tea in the back tent with his hidden figure, had a sneer on his face after hearing this, "Sure enough, he is an officialdom oilman, such a shameless trick can be put forward before the public!" ”
"This guy is really pickled! The name of the beast is truly worthy of its name! Wu Sangui also scolded in his heart!
So, what did Qin Shouren say?
"I marked this time to go to Tashan, and I had already made up my mind to die on the battlefield. But before going into battle, there was only one idea under the mark, and when I saw the county lord, I couldn't help but shout out my mother! I hope that the county lord will accept this son under the bid for the sake of going to the flesh and blood fight with the Tartars! ”
After saying this, Qin Shouren actually had tears in his eyes, and his voice became choked!
A middle-aged military general with a stubble beard actually knelt in front of a little girl in the mood for love crying and shouting that she wanted to worship someone else as a godmother, this shamelessness has reached the realm of the concept of no shame at all!
All the generals of Ning Yuanjun were stunned for a moment, and then as if they suddenly woke up, they all asked for their godmothers for all kinds of strange reasons.
What county lord's appearance is the same as the mark under the mother when she was young, seeing the county lord reminded me of the mother, what mark under the night to dream, dreaming that Guanyin Bodhisattva to mark down and worship under the county lord's knees, because the county lord is the reincarnation of the dragon girl before Guanyin Bodhisattva, mark down to worship under the county lord's knees, you can definitely turn evil into auspicious and auspicious invincible criticism to take the Yellow Dragon and so on!
Wu Sangui snorted disdainfully, a group of guys who tend to be inflammatory, aren't they just afraid that Li Huamei will pay their debts? At the same time, I want to follow Lord Li to reap the benefits in the future, what a group of undisciplined guys. Thinking of this, Wu Sangui arched his hand and said to Li Huamei: "County Lord, in fact, I also feel that the County Lord is related to me...... When I saw the county lord, I reminded the last general of my mother, who had passed away early. It's been more than ten years since she passed away, could it be that the county lord is the descendant of the last general's mother? ”
For a while, in the handsome tent, choked crying, excited outpouring, the sensationalism seemed to let people see the program of a certain CCTV hostess in advance, and the people in Ningyuan Town present were like abducted children who had been separated for many years and saw their relatives. It's just that Li Huamei's pink face is as red as blood, how can a girl less than twenty years old have a group of godsons in their thirties and forties? What's more, the veteran who has turned gray has also asked the county lord to recognize him as an unfilial son.
Shi Lang on the side almost had fire in his eyes, and there was an urge to kill in his chest.
However, Li Peiting, who was in the back account, was very determined, and he felt the pulse of these people's actions, but he saw that the Nanyue army was rich and powerful, so he came to hug his thighs!
When the 9,000-year-old power leaned towards the government and the opposition, countless people worshipped the 9,000-year-old as their godfather. At this time, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu (I forgot what his name was) was very old, and it was not good to worship 9,000 years old as a godfather for a while. Then, he asked his youngest son to worship the nine thousand years old as his godfather. Later, when he saw the nine thousand years old, he said: Nine thousand years old, Xia Guan originally wanted to worship you as a godfather, but he was afraid that you would dislike Xia Guan. So the lower official had to let the dog worship you as a godfather first.
The actions of this group of guys in Ningyuan Town are just to emulate their old chief, Ning Qiandao took the lead in building a shrine for Gonggong Wei in Ningyuan City. If you want to say shameless flesh, who else can compare to their old chief?
Speaking of building a shrine for Wei Zhongxian, and even deserving of him to enjoy the Confucian Temple for a while, the initiator of this unhealthy trend that was spurned by the Donglin Party people as soon as he said it was Pan Ruzhen, who was the governor of Zhejiang at the time, who first built the Wei Zhongxian Ancestral Hall in the West Lake under his jurisdiction. This was one of the earliest ancestral halls, and then began to spread throughout the country.
It's not strange to say that although Zhejiang can't be regarded as Donglin's nest, it is also a place where Donglin's power is stronger, why is there a shrine here first? Could it be that the Donglin Party people, who are talking about the sound of wind and rain, the sound of reading, family affairs, national affairs, and world affairs, have not seen such a big move? This is obviously unscientific compared with the situation in which countless righteous men and gentlemen in Donglin were reinstated and used for a time after the fall of Wei Zhongxian!
Seeing that the situation in the big tent was not cleaned up, the originally very strict and solemn military meeting would immediately turn into a temple fair and a hall meeting, and even the officers who didn't know how to stammer shouted loudly that if the county lord refused to accept him as a godson, his subordinates would have worries, and even mutiny and noise were inevitable.
Mo Yu was a little angry and was about to speak, when she suddenly saw one of Li Huamei's personal soldiers walking out of the back tent, and quietly muttered a few words in her ear, which was red with shame, and Li Huamei couldn't help but immediately reply with joy.
"That's it! Don't make a fuss! ”
After settling down, Li Huamei took a sip of the tea handed over by the soldier.
"Sesame grains are bigger, look at your toss! Isn't it just to recognize a godfather! Only if you fight the battle well, you can do anything! ”
"That's good! But please sit in the camp and see how her son kills the enemy and makes meritorious contributions! ”
"Please take a break in the camp, let's go and go back!"
"If you have something to do, mother, it's up to your son!" (To be continued......)
