614, Great War Jingdong (17)
On February 15, Wang Hao arrived at Liangzhejiang Road with a holy decree, and Zhu Wu received the decree and gave a warm welcome to Wang Hao's arrival.
"Minister Zhu Wu is grateful." Zhu Wu got up to take the holy decree, and the moment he received the holy decree, he heard Wang Hao suddenly whisper, "His Royal Highness King Yun ordered to pay homage to the Duke of Wu Guo. ”
Zhu Wu accepted the holy decree without changing his face, and then smiled at Wang Huang and said, "Lord Wang has a tired journey, please come into the mansion quickly, I have prepared a banquet for your lordship." ”
Wang Hao hurriedly said, "Wu Guogong is really polite, he shares his worries for the saint, and he doesn't dare to claim hard work." Grandpa Guo please. ”
"Please!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The reception banquet was arranged solemnly and decently, and almost all the military and political dignitaries of the Liangzhejiang Road and Qishan Army attended.
Zhu Wu first picked up his wine glass and smiled at everyone, "A year ago, we had to rely on Lord Wang Huang to be recruited by the imperial court, and this is why we have this peaceful day now." A year later, Lord Wang came here again from thousands of miles away to bring us money and food to ensure that our army would not starve and freeze! Everyone said, is Lord Wang the benefactor of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of our Qishan Army?! ”
"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison,
Wang Hao was flattered and hurriedly bowed to everyone, saying that he didn't dare to be.
"Come!" Zhu Wu picked up his wine glass and said loudly, "Let's toast Lord Wang together!" ”
After that, Zhu Wu drank it all first, and everyone followed suit, Wang Hao saw that he could not drink it, and he also took the wine glass and drank it all.
Zhu Wu ordered someone to pour wine again and said, "I, Zhu Wu, don't speak, to be honest, I've been worrying about this money and grain these days, I'm worried, will the court allocate grain and grass to us?" If so, can you count it? Even if it's enough, which expert is specifically responsible for dispatching the grain and grass to us? Don't think I'm too cautious, this is not a joke, if there is a problem with money and food, our hundreds of thousands of troops will run out of food, and if we run out of food, we have to find a way to make food by ourselves, once we do food, it will inevitably cause a big mess, maybe a mutiny is possible! At that time, even if I Zhu Wu has the ability, it will be in vain, I can't let the brothers starve to death, right? ”
When Wang Hao heard this, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, only to hear Zhu Wu continue, "But looking at it now, my worries are completely unnecessary!" The saint promises a thousand gold, and there is not a single grain of grain and grass that should be given to us! And I also sent Lord Wang Huang to be in charge of this matter, if others come, I will not worry, but I have a hundred hearts for Lord Wang Huang! Lord Wang is our great benefactor, and he will definitely not let the grain and grass make a single mistake! I have to declare in advance, in case there is a problem with money and food in the future, it must have nothing to do with Lord Wang, if the brothers want to make trouble, they are only allowed to come to the offender, who dares to slander Lord Wang for a word, just don't take me Zhu Wu in his eyes! Come, give another cup to Lord Wang, and you will have to work hard Lord Wang in the future! ”
After that, Zhu Wu drank it all again, and everyone followed suit, Wang Hao looked at the wine in front of him, and felt sad in his heart, where is Zhu Wu complimenting himself, it is clear that he is solemnly warning himself, warning himself not to use his money and food, otherwise he will bear the consequences!
Wang Hao really doesn't want to drink this glass of wine, because as long as he drinks it, all his calculations for this astronomical amount of money and food when he comes will be completely lost, not only will he no longer be able to get a piece of the pie, but he will also have to "harm" from top to bottom, I don't know how many officials from top to bottom don't want to get any more benefits, I don't know how many officials from top to bottom will hate their own ...... from now on!
But there is no way, this wine must be drunk, just for the sake of His Royal Highness King Yun! Wang Hao gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly, picked up his wine glass and smiled at Zhu Wu, "Please rest assured that Wu Guogong, as long as I am here, none of the 250,000 brothers will be hungry!" Dry! ”
After that, Wang Hao drank it all, and Zhu Wu and everyone applauded in unison.
Next, starting from Zhu Wu, everyone took turns to toast Wang Hao, don't look at Wang Hao's pride in the court, everyone stammered, but when he arrived in the Qishan army, he was like a little lamb falling into a group of tigers and wolves, and he didn't dare not drink at all, as a result, several rounds ......of wheel battles came down, and Wang Hao's head was drunk so much that his tongue was swollen, and he couldn't support it after a while, lying on the table and snoring.
++++++++++++++++
When Wang Hao woke up again, it was already dark, and he couldn't help but have a deep fear of Zhu Wu and the Qishan army generals, these were all a group of beasts who drank alcohol and died!
Subsequently, Wang Hao called his attendants to serve him, got up and ate some food, drank some water, and was about to go back to sleep, but he heard someone come to report that Wu Guogong was coming.
Wang Hao hurriedly asked people to invite Zhu Wu in,
"The subordinates are not sensible, and they have no interest in drinking, don't be surprised by Lord Wang." Zhu Wu said when he met, and as he spoke, Zhu Wu pushed an envelope in front of Wang Hao.
Wang Huang was stunned, "...... is this?" ”
Zhu Wu said with a smile, "Don't take those words to heart during the day, Lord Wang, I just want to make the army feel at ease, I also know some things about this, it is not easy for Lord Wang to protect the grain and grass of the army, this money is to thank Lord Wang, and secondly, to let Lord Wang take care of it for us." ”
Wang Hao understood, only to say that no wonder everyone in the capital now loves Wu Guogong, Wu Guogong is so "sensible", who can not love, he hurriedly excused himself, but Zhu Wu gave in forcefully, Wang Hao pushed the boat and smiled, "That's ...... I'm sorry, thank you Wu Guogong on behalf of everyone! Grandpa Guo, please rest assured, there will be no problems with grain and grass! Speaking of which, the imperial court has really wasted a lot of effort for this batch of grain and grass, and if there is a problem with this batch of grain and grass, the imperial court really can't get one more grain of rice. ”
Zhu Wu nodded and smiled, "Lord Wang, don't be a grandfather of the country, our brothers will get along for a long time in the future, how about we be called brothers if we are so old?" ”
Wang Hao was stunned for a moment, he didn't dare to call Zhu Wu a brother and a brother, and was about to excuse himself, but he heard Zhu Wu continue, "When we go to Jingdong, we will also serve His Royal Highness, and it will be a matter of time before we change our name." ”
The sentence "Serving His Royal Highness Together" made Wang Hao's heart skip a beat, which is a pun ......! He looked at Zhu Wu happily, only to see that Zhu Wu was also looking at him with a smile, everything was silent.
Finally, the two looked at each other and smiled,
"Brother Wang!"
"Brother Zhu!"
"Hahaha......!"
Wang Hao suddenly felt much closer to Zhu Wu, he thought about it and asked, "Brother Zhu, are the troops ready?" ”
Zhu Wu smiled slightly and nodded, "It's all ready, just one order, you can set off at any time." ”
Wang Hao suddenly relaxed, "That's good!" Your Highness can rest assured. ”
Zhu Wu said again, "By the way, I have something to discuss with Lord Wang. ”
Wang Hao hurriedly said, "Brother Zhu has something to say, but please speak!" ”
Zhu Wuzheng said, "My 250,000 army is too large, if we set off to Jingdong together, stretching for hundreds of miles, it will be a severe challenge both for the impact on the states and counties along the way and the supply of grain and grass, so I want to divide the 250,000 army into several parts and rush to Jingdong in batches, I don't know what Lord Wang wants?" ”
Wang Hao thought about it, and also felt that Zhu Wu's words were very reasonable, and besides, if the 250,000 troops were allowed to set off together, this force would be too terrifying, and it would be extremely difficult to control in case of an accident, so he said, "Okay, I agree, I will ask the court and His Highness for instructions and explanations." ”
Zhu Wu nodded gratefully, "Then thank you, I came tonight in addition to this matter." ”
Wang Hao looked at Zhu Wu suspiciously, only to see Zhu Wu take out a piece of paper from his arms and hand it to Wang Hao, Wang Hao took it and looked at it, and suddenly, his face rose with extreme shock!
"Is this letter serious?!" Wang Hao grabbed Zhu Wu's wrist and asked urgently, his voice still trembling and excited,
Zhu Wu said very seriously, "It's true, and the person who sent the letter has also been controlled by me and kept as a living mouth." ”
Wang Hao was even more shocked, "Where is he?!" ”
Zhu Wu patted him on the shoulder and motioned for him to sit down before he added, "He is in a safe place, and besides, the letter in Brother Wang's hand is not the original." ”
Wang Hao was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhu Wu and not speaking,
I only heard Zhu Wu continue, "Now is not the time to make a move, when we pacify Jingdong and return to the court with the palace master, it is the most suitable time!" When the time comes, I will hand over the original letter to His Highness along with that person. For now, please keep it a secret as well! ”
Wang Hao seemed to understand something, he pondered for a moment, and finally said to Zhu Wu, "Okay, if you can really do this, Brother Zhu, you are the number one hero of His Highness!" ”
Zhu Wu smiled slightly, "Set off the day after tomorrow?" ”
Wang Hao nodded and said, "Okay, let's go!" ”
