Volume 3 Chapter 8 Rushing to the Frontier

In the morning of this day, the morning sun is rising, the light is shining, the northwest of the capital, outside the Xizhi Gate, the flag is displayed, and it is very lively.

Yang Cong was ordered to patrol the Xuanfu by the Holy Decree, and today is the day of departure.

At this time, the people outside Xizhi Gate had already gathered to watch the excitement, and there were many important ministers of the court who came to see them off.

Yan Song, the secretary of the Cabinet University Clerk's Department;

Metropolitan Inspectorate, Zuo Du Yushi, Tu Qiao;

Zhang Yue, the left deputy of the Imperial Palace;

Mao Bowen, the secretary of the military department;

Nie Bao, the left attendant of the military department;

Mu Konghui, a bachelor of Hanlin Academy;

Jinyi Wei commanded Lu Song, Lu Bing, etc., and all the dignitaries and dignitaries stood at the gate of the city with serious faces, as if they had come to say goodbye to Yang Cong.

Among these people, there are those who want to see them off, those who don't want to see them off, those who are really reluctant to see Yang Cong, and those who wish Yang Cong would die, but everyone's expressions are similar, they all look like they are pity, and no one knows what they are thinking in their hearts.

Yang Cong was really taken aback at first, hungry and obedient, almost half of the important ministers of the court came this time, Jiajing is too exaggerated.

However, he was only taken aback, and then he walked over with a smile and began to say goodbye to the officials who saw him off.

This first one is Yan Song, the secretary of the Cabinet University Officials Department, this guy doesn't look like a big corrupt official, but has a bit of fairy wind and bones, a gray beard, and a thin face, I don't know if he really thinks he is a great virtuous minister.

This is the first time Yang Cong has dealt with Yan Song, a traitor, and he doesn't know what this guy's temperament is, he rolled his eyes, and simply stepped forward and said: "Lord Xiangguo, I bother you to send it off in person, the lower official is really embarrassed." ”

This cabinet scholar really has the function of the prime minister, but it is a bit too much to call Xiangguo, even if it is the first assistant of the cabinet, he can't be called Xiangguo, at most he can call a certain prime minister, Yang Cong is deliberately testing Yan Song.

Yan Song was about to roll his eyes at this moment, but the emperor didn't know what to think, so he asked him to send a small patrol.

This kid is also yes, he is afraid that he doesn't know how many eyes Lord Yan has, and he dares to invite himself to Xuanfu to deal with Tartar, is Tartar so easy to get along with?

Boy, at this time, you are still in the mood to play tricks with the old man, and it will be up to you to see how you die when the time comes.

However, he had already reached the realm of joy and anger, Yang Cong was so nonsense, he didn't even blink his eyelids, as if he hadn't heard Yang Cong call him Lord Xiangguo.

He arched his hand directly, and then said with a serious face: "Zhuangyuanlang's heart of loyalty to the country is really admirable, going to Xuanfu is full of dangers, Zhuangyuanlang take care." ”

Nima, this tone is almost like sending people to the end.

Forget it, this guy has a very poisonous mouth, so don't be bored.

Yang Cong smiled slightly, arched his hand again, and then said goodbye to the person behind him.

The latter few have nothing to say, what really has to do with him, he has talked to people in advance, and then he will say a few words about the scene, he arched his hands and greeted him around, and then turned the reins in the hands of the guards, turned over directly on the horse, and walked to the front team.

At this time, the elite of the 1,000 Divine Machine Battalion had already lined up in a neat phalanx and were waiting in front, and a hundred brocade guards were also escorted around more than ten carriages under the leadership of Shen Lian, just waiting for him to give the order to set off.

Originally, you can't bring your family members to the battlefield, but civilian officials can make an exception, because officials generally sit in the strong city and command, and they don't have to really go to the battlefield to fight, and it's nothing to bring their families.

At this time, the army is about to set off, and it is a bit unreasonable to grind and chirp with his family, Yang Cong simply hit his horse directly and came to the front of the Shenji Battalion, and then raised his hand and said loudly: "Let's go." ”

With a wave of the flag, the whole team finally began to move slowly, slowly moving in a northwesterly direction.

The soldiers of this Shenji battalion did not ride horses, so the whole team was not very fast, Yang Cong looked at the team behind him, and then said aloud to the general wearing bright silver armor: "General Zhu, why don't we go faster, this road is more than three hundred miles, if you want to go down so slowly, I'm afraid it will take seven or eight days to reach Xuanhua Mansion City." ”

Zhu Xizhong, who was full of immaturity, nodded, and asked the general next to him, and then raised his hand and said aloud: "Run, move forward." ”

This running is not very fast, it is good to be able to run a hundred miles a day, but it is faster than walking slowly, Yang Cong is actually not in a hurry, he is just testing this Zhu Xizhong's temperament.

Now it seems that this Zhu Xizhong is really a stunned young man, and he does not have the arrogance of the children of the family, it is very simple to fool, that is, the general next to him seems to be very old-fashioned, I don't know what the origin is.

Yang Cong thought about it, simply hit his horse and leaned over and asked, "General Zhu, I don't know who this general is?" ”

Zhu Xizhong hurriedly introduced: "This is General Qi Xiang of Mingwei, General of the Beijing Battalion, commander of the Shenji Battalion, General Qi Jingtong Qi. ”

General Mingwei?

This should have been sealed at the time of the founding of the country, and the generals who were not enough to be named the Marquis Earl would generally be named a general or something, it seems that this guy should have a close relationship with the Chengguo Mansion.

The surname Qi is rare.

Yang Cong subconsciously arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be General Qi, dare to ask what is Ling Lang's name?" ”

This is a baffling question.

Qi Jingtong was stunned for a moment, and then he arched his hand and said: "The last general has two sons, the eldest son Jiguang and the second son Jimei." ”

When Yang Cong heard this, the wrong point fell from the horse.

, this turned out to be the father of the famous general Qi Jiguang!

He just subconsciously asked casually, but he didn't expect that this Qi Jingtong was really related to Qi Jiguang.

Qi Jiguang, that is the most famous general in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, since he met it, he naturally can't miss it.

He couldn't help but excitedly said: "The so-called tiger father has no dogs, if you want to come to General Qi, he must also be a general, I don't know where Ling Lang is serving now, if General Qi doesn't dislike it, it is better to transfer it to the official account together, after all, this Xuanfu is where the Tartars' eyes are red, and there are many opportunities to make contributions." ”

What is this champion?

Qi Jingtong glanced at Zhu Xizhong with a confused face, and then said embarrassedly: "Thank you, Lord Yang, but the dog is still young and can't lead the troops to fight." ”

You're afraid that there are forty or fifty, Qi Jiguang is almost twenty no matter what, what is young or not, let's catch it first.

Yang Cong reluctantly said: "It doesn't matter if you're young, the so-called heroes are teenagers, as long as you exercise, you will definitely be able to become a great tool." ”

What the hell do you want to do?

Qi Jingtong was stunned for a long time, and then said weakly: "This, Lord Yang is right, but Jiguang is only ten years old this year, and Jimei is only eight years old this year, they really can't lead troops to fight, and the last general is here to thank Lord Yang for their kindness." ”

When Yang Cong heard this, his face immediately flushed with shame.

fainted to death, are military generals popular late marriage and late childbearing these years, Yu Dayou is nearly thirty years old and has not yet married a wife, this Qi Jingtong is forty or fifty years old, and the eldest son is only ten years old, which makes people so embarrassed!

He laughed a few times, and then said embarrassedly: "Oh, so that's the case, it's okay, it's okay, I'll invite Linglang over when I have a chance in the future."
