Chapter 345: Return to the Jingshi

A night of hangover, the next day, until the third pole of the day, Xu Changqing got up lazily, washed up briefly, and came to the tent to move his hands and feet slowly.

In the past few years, he has been struggling continuously, and even Xu Changqing himself doesn't know how long he hasn't stolen this kind of laziness.

Today's weather is good, the sun is very good, although it is a little windy, but the temperature has come up, as far as the eye can see, a lot of tender green grass has begun to grow in the model army position, full of spring. The meaning has gradually spread out in heaven and earth.

"Dashuai."

"Handsome ......"

The personal soldiers on duty patrolled this side and saluted Xu Changqing respectfully, and Xu Changqing also nodded to them with a smile.

Not far away, in the clearing, there are a few unknown birds, frolicking to grab food scraps left behind by unknown people.

Xu Changqing suddenly laughed.

When I really let go of that heavy burden, I realized that this world is actually really beautiful.

However, Xu Changqing's leisurely did not last long, and soon, Li Qilang walked over quickly and said respectfully: "Dashuai, Governor Hong has been waiting for you in the guest tent for half an hour." ”

Xu Changqing nodded slowly, "Greet Governor Hong, I'll go over later." ”

"Yes!"

But Hong Chengchou waited for more than half an hour, until it was almost noon, Xu Changqing walked into the tent slowly, and said with a smile: "Governor, I'm really embarrassed, I drank a little too much last night, and I've just gotten up now." ”

Hong Chengchou smiled: "It's okay. If you're a few years younger, you'd have had a few drinks last night to celebrate. ”

How old and spicy is he? How could he not understand Xu Changqing's deep meaning.

Xu Changqing can merge with them, but Xu Changqing will also use his way to express his unhappiness!

However, Hong Chengchou's city government, as long as Xu Changqing is willing to talk, this is not a matter.

After a few words of greeting and a few sips of tea, Hong Chengchou also said the topic with a smile: "Changqing, the Tartar has retreated, and it is estimated that in three or five days, you can leave my Daming, about retribution...... What are you thinking? ”

Xu Changqing smiled and took another sip of the fragrant tea in the cup, but he didn't rush to say anything.

By this time, Xu Changqing had already adapted to Daming's system.

It doesn't matter whose stuff it is, just put it on a plate and everyone can take a bite! If you don't want to, you're everyone's enemy!

Xu Changqing did have a lot of Tartar heads at this time, but most of them were won when the main force of the Qing army was besieging Haicheng, and this time he entered the king of Beijing Qin, but he did not gain anything.

"Governor, as soon as this war is over, and this is so abrupt, there is nothing to think about at this time, I don't know what good way the governor can do?"

After thinking for a while, Xu Changqing smiled and kicked the ball back to Hong Chengchou's side.

Hong Chengchou's complexion changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Changqing, this matter, a certain person was also driven to the shelves." However, everyone is a colleague, and the face still has to pass. Otherwise, let's still follow the old rules of Liaodi? ”

Looking at Hong Chengchou's cautious appearance, Xu Changqing really wanted to laugh, and then smashed the teacup directly on his old face!

But Xu Changqing also understands that how can this powerful inertia be changed overnight?

If you want to change the environment, you can only adapt to the environment first!

"Governor, I don't have an opinion on this matter, but I don't know, what price are my colleagues willing to pay?"

Seeing that Xu Changqing was relieved, Hong Chengchou couldn't help but feel like he had been amnestied, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Changqing, the price given by the imperial court is fifty taels of the first class, but you also have hard work expenses here, plus the loss and pension in it, you must not be able to suffer!" In this way, the first-class true Manchurian head, eighty taels, two hundred white armor, one thousand Niu Lu Zhangjing, banners, blades, armor, etc., are calculated separately, what is it? ”

Hong Chengchou didn't look like a pillar country-level official at this time, and with his southern Fujian accent, he was completely a businessman in southern Fujian.

But Xu Changqing had already adapted to this rhythm, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Yes." In terms of meritorious service, the humble position is also willing to be dominated by Hongdu! ”

Hong Chengchou didn't expect Xu Changqing to be so straightforward, and gave him the initiative to repay his merits, and the whole person instantly seemed to be a few years younger, and said with a busy smile: "Changqing, in this matter, since you trust so-and-so, so-and-so will definitely do his best!" ”

After chatting about business, the atmosphere quickly relaxed a lot, Hong Chengchou drank a few sips of tea, but talked about the war in the hinterland of Shaanxi, and sighed: "Changqing, the state affairs are hard." According to the news I just received, I'm afraid that the thieves have the intention of attacking Chang'an! ”

Hearing Hong Chengchou say this, Xu Changqing's nerves were already a little paralyzed, and he suddenly became a lot more energetic, and said with a smile: "Governor, the thief is just a scabies, whether it is Ding Du or Lord Sun, they are all dragons and phoenixes among people, so why should Chang'an be afraid?" ”

Hong Chengchou shook his head and said, "Changqing, you can't think like that about this matter. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Changqing's eyes very solemnly: "I know, you have defeated the thieves in the Central Plains before, and you have certain experience and advantages, but after so many years, the thieves have experienced so many defeats, but which one time, let's really exterminate them?" If this trouble is not eliminated, the situation of my Ming Dynasty will be even worse than that of Dongnu! ”

……

After sending Hong Chengchou away, it had been more than an hour, Xu Changqing originally wanted to stay with Hong Chengchou for lunch, but Hong Chengchou was busy with the matter of repaying his merits, so he simply left.

Looking at the teacup and chair left by Hong Chengchou, Xu Changqing drank the tea in his cup vigorously and slowly closed his eyes.

Lao Hong's vision is still fine.

Although the Wandering People's Army is not as strong as it was in history, this trend is still not to be underestimated, if they really take Chang'an, many things, it's really hard to say!

In history, one of the core reasons why the capital surrendered to the exile army so quickly is that the scholar class, hoping to recruit the elite of the exile army who are good at fighting, go to the border to fight with the Tartars just a wave, and 'raze to defeat the raze'.

Although the situation has changed at this time, and the model army has also defeated the exile army, but those who hold this line of thinking may still not be less......

Not to mention, there are also Luo Rucai, He Yilong and others who have gone deep into Huguang, and Zhang Xianzhong, who has already begun to attack Sichuan.

……

Xu Changqing gave the green light here, and Hong Chengchou personally mediated, and the benefit plan was also released quickly, and Xu Changqing got the plan that night.

Including Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui, Zu Dale, Tang Tong, Wang Tingchen, Wang Pu, Deputy General Liu under Ma Ke, including Bai Guangen, who was far away in the Santun camp, all bought more or less heads, basically more than 100, about 200.

Xu Changqing also understood at this time that Bai Guangen, the old fritter, had already hooked up with Hong Chengchou.

Sure enough, there was no stupid person.

Although he was speechless and helpless about this, but in the game, Xu Changqing didn't have much choice at this time, and quickly agreed to this plan.

This time, each family has a scale of almost twenty or thirty thousand taels, and Xu Changqing has also received 200,000 taels of silver.

However, at this time, the vast majority of these heads were in Haicheng, and it would take some time to transport them, and everyone happened to discuss the details of the meritorious service.

In this regard, although Xu Changqing controls the right to speak, he has transferred more of the right to speak to Hong Chengchou.

By this time, all the ghosts and ghosts had already stood up, basically every one of them was innocent, Xu Changqing also knew them very well, and there was no need to stand up and be this good person, everyone could get by on face, and it would be over.

And in this exchange, Xu Changqing also got his greatest interests, and the nearly 70,000 young and middle-aged population in Pinggu City all entered Xu Changqing's rule justifiably.

In a flash, a few days flew by, and it was March 19.

At this time, although the first level has not yet arrived, there have been a lot of banners and blades, all of which have been brought over by fast horses, and the copywriting has also been sent to the Beijing Division, and it is time for everyone to enter Beijing to accept the reward.

Xu Changqing and the Model Army were the first to leave.

There is Li Yan staring at Pinggu, and Xu Changqing doesn't have to worry about it, and Xu Changqing really doesn't want to be false and wronged with these people.

However, Wu Sangui did something and sold Xu Changqing a thousand war horses at a price lower than the market price, and the accounts of the two sides were also offset.

The same is true on the side of the royal courtiers.

He gave Xu Changqing two thousand horses before, and in terms of the first level, Xu Changqing would definitely not accept his silver again.

But many of Xu Changqing's personal soldiers are not very good at horseback, and after this toss, although Xu Changqing was the first to set off, he was the latest to arrive in the capital.

According to the practice of the dynasty, the border generals could only bring 500 people into Beijing, and the model army was divided into two parts at this time, one of the big heads followed Li Yan to Pinggu City to receive manpower, and there were more than 2,000 people who went to Beijing with Xu Changqing to report their merits and rewards.

These two thousand people are equipped with more than 2,500 war horses, which can be said to be everyone's own horse.

But horses are still far from cavalry.

They could only be regarded as infantry with horses, and at most they marched a little faster.

Came to Jingshi again, entered the city from Guangqu Gate, and came all the way to the house sent by the Wu family in the inner city, watching the soldiers happily pack up and rest, but Xu Changqing felt like a world away.

How long can this Xiongcheng, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, hold out?

The Wu family had already received the news that Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui and his son had prepared a sumptuous reception banquet for Xu Changqing.

In this regard, Xu Changqing must not give face to the Wu family.

But this also reminded Xu Changqing of the deceased Li Shizhong.

This old man died during the battle of Kaifeng before, but Xu Changqing didn't have time to go to the funeral, this time he left Beijing, how to say that he had to go to Shanhaiguan to worship him.

"Changqing, good boy, the old man doesn't dare to admit it."

When Xu Changqing rode a war horse, escorted by Li Qilang and more than 100 other personal soldiers, and came to the gate of Wu Mansion, Wu Xiang, Wu Sangui, Wu Sanfu and his son had already been waiting here for a long time.

And seeing Xu Changqing again, Wu Xiang also had a feeling of being in a different world.

Although he knew for a long time that his son-in-law was by no means a thing in the pool, he was far from expecting that in less than two years, he had already carped and jumped into the dragon gate and completed the real 'fish into a dragon'!

Xu Changqing didn't dare to slack off on this old Taishan, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and saluted respectfully: "Old Taishan, I have always wanted to come to see you, but I have never had time, this is Changqing's sin." Are you okay? ”

As soon as he saw Xu Changqing's attitude, Wu Xiang's face almost burst into laughter, and he hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's very good." Just waiting to hug my grandson. ”

Next to her, Wu Sanmei, who also came out together, her pretty face turned red instantly, but she looked at Xu Changqing shyly and boldly, and there was a faint kind of unspeakable resentment.

Xu Changqing couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

The number of times he and Wu Sanmei drove was by no means less than Li Youwei, just because Wu Sanmei was too young, Xu Changqing had always had reservations, but now, this is a crime......

The group greeted each other for a while and was about to enter the mansion, when at this time, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves running outside, and several little eunuchs hurried over: "The emperor has an order, recruit Zhongyi and uncle to meet immediately!" ”

"This ......"

Everyone was suddenly a little confused, and Wu Sangui's face also changed.

He has been in the capital for more than a day, and he didn't hear that the emperor wanted to see him first......
