That night, Liu Juntao and Hu Dexing set up wine and food in the inn, and the two had not sat together to drink wine and eat meat for a while, and this time they were full of interest.

Liu Juntao also deliberately asked the store to open a jar of Liu's second pot head, and called the two guards who stayed here to come over and drink together.

After three rounds of drinking, Liu Juntao saw that Hu Dexing was slightly sad between his eyebrows, as if he had something on his mind, and then remembered that Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen had always been inseparable from Hu Dexing, but this time they did not come together, so Liu Juntao hesitated a little in his heart.

"Go get some more food and drink."

Liu Juntao said to the two guards next to him, and the two guards were also bright, so he turned around and went out and closed the door casually.

Seeing this, Hu Dexing smiled and said, "What? Jun Tao has something to say? ”

Liu Juntao poured himself and Hu Dexing full of wine, and then said, "Brother Hu, are you hiding something from me?" ”

"How so?"

"Then where did Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen go? Brother Hu, don't tell me anything to deal with military affairs, how many soldiers can you have? What else is there to deal with in military affairs? ”

Hu Dexing couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and the smile on his face slowly dissipated, and then he drank the liquor in the cup and sighed heavily.

Liu Juntao asked: "Brother Hu, although I don't have any great skills, but for the sake of my brother, I can stick a knife in both sides, although Brother Hu only says something, don't hide it from me!" ”

Hu Dexing shook his head slightly and said, "This is not something you can settle with your brother, this is a matter for the imperial court!" ”

"Oh? What's up! ”

Hu Dexing said in a deep voice: "Before I came to Yushan this time, Lord Baihu had just issued an order: ten days later, all the soldiers and horses of the Baihu Office in Huakou Town will rush to Ren Chengwei (located in the city of Yanzhou Mansion) to assemble, and together with the entire Ren Chengwei's soldiers and horses, they will go north to garrison the nine sides. I heard that at that time, the entire Shandong garrison will go north together! It's going to war! ”

Liu Juntao was stunned when he heard this, and a historical event instantly appeared in his mind:

In the summer of the tenth year of Ming orthodoxy, in order to consolidate his position, Wara Taishi also led an army of 30,000 iron cavalry to attack Hamiwei. At this time, the Hami guards were outnumbered and could not resist, and they also fought a battle with the army, and then led the army to sweep all over the Western Regions.

After tasting the sweetness, the Warat Taishi also gathered 100,000 iron cavalry again, and divided the troops to gallop and invade the northern land of the Ming Dynasty, and the people everywhere were miserable.

Shanxi Town, Xuanfu Town, Ningxia Town, Shaanxi Town, Liaodong Town, on the border line of thousands of miles from east to west in the north of the Ming Dynasty, there are soldiers of the Wara army everywhere, and the state capitals and counties in the north are thousands of miles away and the alarm is constant!

Ming Yingzong was furious after receiving the urgent report from the nine sides, and ordered the garrisons from all over the nine sides to defend the city, block the troops of the Wara Iron Cavalry at any cost, and move the people from all over the north to avoid trouble;

At the same time, Ming Yingzong issued an order to the Ministry of War, ordering the Ministry of War to immediately draw troops and horses from Shandong, Henan, Sichuan, Nanzhili and other places, immediately gather reinforcements to the north, and comprehensively increase troops on the nine sides, and begin to confront the Wara army.

The big battle between Daming and Warat is about to break out!

Thinking of this historical event, Liu Juntao's face has also changed several times, not only for the safety of Hu Dexing, Sun Xu, and Meng Fanchen, after all, the soldiers are in danger, and the opponent is a very fierce Wara Iron Cavalry, after everyone goes north this time, they don't know when they will come back, and they don't even know if they can come back!

At the same time, Liu Juntao had a trace of excitement in his heart, after all, once all the soldiers and horses of Yanzhou Mansion went north, then no one would be responsible for the defense affairs of Yanzhou Mansion, and the government would definitely re-recruit soldiers and horses, or encourage local squires to protect themselves.

At that time, it will be logical for the Yushan Guards to take advantage of the situation to "turn positive"!

At this time, Liu Juntao said in a deep voice: "Brother Hu, this march is fierce and dangerous, is there a way not to go?" ”

Hu Dexing shook his head slightly and said, "It's difficult! To be honest, I am also entangled in my heart, I want to go north with the army to make military achievements, after all, as a Ming warrior, everyone wants to make a difference; However, what are the soldiers of our Yanzhou Mansion, Jun Tao, you also know that such soldiers and horses cannot be able to defeat the Warat Iron Cavalry! ”

Liu Juntao also sighed heavily when he heard this, and he was speechless for a while.

Both of them drank the liquor in large gulps, and the hot liquor ran down their throats, and the smell of alcohol suddenly rushed to the top of their heads, making people arrogant.

Liu Juntao slapped the table and said loudly: "I really hope to go north with Brother Hu, I really want to see if my Yushan Guardian can compete with the Tartars!" ”

Hu Dexing also laughed out loud and said, "How can the Tartars be the opponent of the Guard!" ”

At this time, Liu Juntao said; "Brother Hu, I have an idea that I can let you, Sun Xu, and Meng Fanchen stay temporarily."

Hu Dexing was stunned when he heard this, tangled for a moment, sighed heavily, and said; "Well, instead of going north to die, it is better to leave this life, and maybe you can make a difference in the future! Say, Juntao, what do you think? ”

Liu Juntao laughed strangely, and whispered in Hu Dexing's ear.

After a while, Hu Dexing looked at Liu Juntao with a strange look and said, "Juntao, how did you grow this brain?" How can such an idea come up with! ”

Two days later, Liu Juntao returned to Yushanji with two guards, while Hu Dexing separated from Liu Juntao more than ten miles south of Dong'e County and rushed back to Huakou Town.

When Liu Juntao returned to Yushanji, he began to deal with the various affairs accumulated in the past few days, especially finding Guo Yongzhong, upgrading Yushanji to Yushan Town, and transferring more than 10,000 villagers to Yushan Town.

Guo Yongzhong was very excited when he heard this, and said: "That's good! In this way, I fish mountain set, oh! No! It's Yushan Town! Our Yushan Town will be able to develop its strength without scruples in the future! ”

Liu Juntao said with a smile; "There is one more thing, I have also reported the candidate for the Lizheng in our Yushan Town."

"Oh? Jun Tao, you will not only be our Lian General Manager in the future, but also our Yushan Town! ”

"Guo Yuanwai, it's not me in this room, it's you!"

Guo Yongzhong was stunned when he heard this, and after a while, he said, "Jun Tao, why is this? Why don't you come here to be this Lizheng? ”

Liu Juntao said his thoughts: "Guo Yuanwai, if I become this lizheng, then after the escort team becomes an official army in the future, my identity will be embarrassing." So, it's better for you to take care of this. ”

Guo Yongzhong thought about this as soon as he thought about it, and began to look forward to the scene of being a righteous person in the future.

That afternoon, Liu Zi'an suddenly hurried back, and after finding Liu Juntao, he said: "Mr. Lian, something happened!" I just received the news that Mr. Hu and his two small flag officials, Sun Xu and Meng Fanchen, were attacked outside Huakou Town! ”

Guo Yongzhong, Zhang Baigui, Gao Ran, and Zhou Zongsheng, who were discussing at Liu Juntao's house, were all taken aback when they heard this, and everyone looked at Liu Juntao, only to see Liu Juntao's face full of anger, and immediately asked loudly: "How is my big brother Hu?" Who did it! ”

Liu Zi'an said: "Mr. Lian, Mr. Hu, Sun Xu, and Meng Fanchen, the two small flag officials, have now been sent to Mr. Chen Ziping Qianqian for treatment, and the hundred households in Huakou Town have also rushed over, and the injuries of the three of them should not be too serious." But ......"

"But what!"

Liu Zi'an's expression was a little weird, and he said: "However, Hu Zongqi, Sun Xu, and Meng Fanchen, the two small flag officials, all injured their legs, and they probably won't be able to go to the north to defend against the enemy this time." I heard that the hundred households in Slip Mouth Town have ordered the three of them to stay in Slip Mouth Town! ”

Liu Juntao said angrily when he heard this: "Go and find out, who did this!" ”

Liu Zi'an responded and glanced at Liu Juntao, but saw that the anger on his face had dissipated a lot.

Then, Liu Juntao said to everyone: "Okay, let's continue to discuss!" ”
