After more than 100 years of baptism, the soldiers of the Ming Border Army have long formed a unique characteristic of the border people.

They are not afraid of bloodshed, they are not afraid of sacrifice, and fighting is commonplace.

They are not afraid that the Tartars will come to attack, they are afraid that they will not have a chance to obtain military merits, because military merit is the way for them to obtain benefits, and military merit is their chance to be promoted.

It can be said that fighting a war is a part of their life, fighting a war is their profession, resisting the invasion of foreign enemies, and the idea of defending the country has been deeply imprinted into their minds, since childhood, they have received this kind of education, no need to explain or mobilize, they are born to fight for the country, this is their mission, this is their duty.

Zhang Da is a typical border army soldier temperament, he is loyal, brave, heroic, he is fearless, fearless, and he does not have so many eyes, he just wants to fight bravely to kill the enemy, protect the family and defend the country, complete his mission, and fulfill his duties.

However, Chen Da took the set in the officialdom to the side, playing scheming and tricks, regardless of whether the soldiers of the border army lived or died, no matter whether the enemy was raging in the land of the Ming Dynasty, he just wanted to seek personal interests for himself.

This kind of person came to command the border army, which really made him extremely unhappy, so between his words, he unconsciously revealed his dissatisfaction with Chen Da.

Yang Cong is also dissatisfied with Chen Da, he is trying to find fault and clean up Chen Da, this kind of good opportunity naturally cannot be missed.

He also saw that Zhang Da is the kind of heroic person, and the best way for this kind of person is to exchange hearts for hearts.

Thinking of this, Yang Cong said frankly: "General Zhang, I won't tell you, I also don't like this Chen Da, he actually embarrassed my father for some personal grudges, so that my father almost didn't send the military rations to Datong Town on time." This kind of public and private do not distinguish between people, how can He De sit in the position of this governor, and the court sent him to Shanxi to let him be powerful and prosperous? I intend to return to Beijing to launch an impeachment, pull this unconscious official off the horse, and replace you with an honest and capable governor, are you willing to help? ”

Sure enough, Zhang Da then scolded and said: "Wet him to the north, this melon will not do personnel, let him do it for a few more years, Xuanfu, Datong, Taiyuan three towns will be abolished, Lord Yang, you just take care of the whole, what is the use of my old head, you just say." ”

Dizzy, this goods, a moment of excitement dialect came out.

However, Yang Congmingbai, this thing is not scolding him, but scolding Chen Da.

didn't say it, since Zhang Da is willing to help, then open the whole.

He discussed with Zhang Da for a while, and then hurried back to Dingxiang to prepare for the rectification.

How to open the whole?

It's very simple, find evidence first, and only with evidence can you impeach.

Early the next morning, just after the end of the day, Yang Cong brought a group of brocade guards to "visit" the local tyrant Chang Li in Dingxiang.

This time, he didn't order someone to surround the Chang family's compound, nor did he go straight inside, because he was here to find someone to help, so naturally he couldn't be too arrogant.

He solemnly ordered the porter to inform him, and then stood at the gate and waited.

This guy, Chang Li was really startled when he heard that Yang Cong was coming.

He knew how good this Lord Yang was, because Yang Cong's words to threaten King Jin were conveyed through him.

Later, the performance of the Jin Wangfu really surprised him, he really didn't expect that the Jin Wangfu was really cowardly, not only instructed them to let go of selling grain to Yang Lin, but also rented 100,000 acres of land to Yang Lin.

This Lord Yang is an existence that even the Jin Wangfu is afraid of, how dare he make the family wait for a long time, after receiving the report from the porter, he ran to the door with a smoke, and said to Yang Cong: "I don't know that Lord Yang is coming, there is a disappointment, the students are afraid, and I hope that Lord Haihan." ”

Yang Cong shook his head and said with a smile: "You're polite, you're polite, don't you invite this official to come in and sit down?" ”

When Chang Li heard this, he hurriedly nodded and led Yang Cong into the mansion, offered him to the upper seat, and offered fragrant tea with his own hands, then stood aside and respectfully arched his hand and said: "Dare to ask the Lord in person, what is the matter?" ”

Yang Cong smiled and said, "I won't tell you, this official wants to ask you for a favor." ”

Help?

Chang Li hurriedly said: "The student who helps is really unable to afford it, and the adults can only tell me if they have anything." ”

Yang Cong asked lightly: "Do you know the Daizhou Herdsmen?" ”

Chang Li hurriedly nodded and said, "I know, I know." ”

Yang Cong asked lightly, "Can I buy a horse there?" ”

Chang Li nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, almost all of our horses were bought from there." ”

Sure enough, Yang Cong said with a smile: "The official wants to ask you to come forward and go there to buy a thousand horses, and the silver is out of the official, is there a problem?" ”

A thousand horses?

That's a lot of money!

Fortunately, he didn't need to pay for this silver, Chang Li was stunned for a moment, and then nodded vigorously: "No problem, no problem." ”

Yang Cong said with satisfaction: "Okay, we will leave tomorrow morning, you send someone to contact you first." ”

In the south of Daizhou, on the west side of Wutai Mountain, along the Hutuo River, there is a broad prairie, where the rivers are dense, the water and grass are abundant, it is the benefit of raising horses, and the Daizhou Group Pasture of Shanxi is located here.

At about midnight that day, a large group of men and horses drove more than ten carriages to suddenly appear in the southern part of the grassland, and looking at the direction they were traveling, it was clear that it was the station of the herdsmen.

They are Chang Li and Yang Cong, Chang Li was ordered by Yang Cong to buy horses, and Yang Cong took guards to protect Yinzi, and at the same time he also wanted to see on the spot how many war horses there were in this generation of state herdsmen.

This place is not quite the same as the desolate scene he imagined, he just led the men and horses into the grassland and saw groups of war horses under the guard of the guards comfortably eating grass in the grassland, this guy, as far as the eye can see, there are war horses everywhere, and there are no less than a thousand horses in the south alone!

This guy, this generation of state herds can be dozens of miles away, there are so many war horses in a small area in the south, and there are at least two or three thousand horses in the entire herds, okay you Chen Da, not a single horse is used by the elite of the border army, don't you know that there are so many war horses here?

At this time, the thousands of households in the group of pastures had already come up with a large group of people, and Chang Li couldn't help but look at Yang Cong on the side with a panic on his face when he saw this.

This guy, he has done the things of the pit people, but it is the first time that the pit side army has guarded thousands of households, and he said that he did not panic, it was false.

Seeing this, Yang Cong said calmly: "What are you afraid of, we are here to buy horses, pay the money with one hand, deliver the goods with the other, and don't do anything else." We'll leave after buying, and other things have nothing to do with you, so don't panic. ”

When Chang Li heard this, he swallowed his saliva, plucked up his courage, beat his horse to meet him, and arched his hand: "Lord Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

The king of a thousand households, Bole, stopped the war horse and laughed: "Chang Lao, you are here, I received the news yesterday, I think I heard it wrong, you really want a thousand good horses?" ”

Chang Li nodded and said, "Of course, how dare I joke with adults about this kind of thing, no, I even brought silver." ”

When Wang Bo of Qianhu heard this, he stretched out his head to look at the carriage behind, and sure enough, it was a cart of boxes, no need to ask, the box was filled with silver, his face couldn't help showing greed, and then he looked at Yang Cong again, and asked carefully: "Chang Lao, who is this?" ”

Chang Li hurriedly introduced: "This is Yang Gongzi from Huguang, I am preparing to do big business with Yang Gongzi, I will tell you the truth, most of the money to buy horses is from Yang Gongzi, I don't have so much money." ”

It turned out to be the big money owner, and when Wang Bo of Qianhu heard this, he politely arched his hand to Yang Cong and said, "Young Master Yang, I am fortunate to be happy." ”

Yang Cong is familiar with the posture of this rich child, because he was originally a rich child, he pretended to have a slightly arrogant expression, and pretended to give his hand and said: "Fortunately, fortunately, Lord Wang, why don't we go to see the horse now?" ”

Wang Bo was not only not annoyed, but said happily: "Okay, Chang Lao, Yang Gongzi, please." ”

After that, he took Yang Cong and Chang Li into the station of the herd and came to a large horse farm.

Good guy, there are at least a few hundred horses stored here, Yang Cong pretended to turn around the stables around, and then pretended to be worried: "Lord Wang, I heard that the war horses of this court have imprints, there will be no trouble in the future, right?" ”

Wang Bo smiled and explained: "Young Master Yang, don't worry, we have a few war horses with imprints, which are specially designed to deal with the imperial court inspection, and the others have no imprints, so there will be nothing wrong." ”

It turned out that this was the case, Yang Cong was not verbose, and waved his hand directly: "Okay, let's start picking horses now, eighty taels and one horses, a total of eighty thousand taels, you send someone to count the silver." ”

This guy is really bold, Wang Bo is very happy, 80,000 taels, usually, he can't do so much business in a few years.

It's easy to pick a horse, anyway, they're used to pull a cart, and generally a stronger horse is fine, and this war horse is naturally no problem, as long as it's not an old horse, a sick horse will be.

I don't know how many war horses there are in this group of pastures, the war horses are pulled over in batches, and the group picks less than two hours, and a thousand horses are picked, Chang Li and Yang Cong do not stay, even if they leave the silver, they take people to drive the war horses back to Dingxiang.

Wang Bo didn't know that there was fraud, he only knew that this time it was 80,000 taels of silver, 80,000 taels, he could get 7 or 8,000 taels if he said the least, and he was rich, rich!
