Chapter 270 Everything is ready, the east wind is not coming

After Liu Renyu finished expressing that emotion, he accompanied Ma Tianjun and a group of generals under his command to accompany the two Qincha to the play.

When a group of people came to the stage in the backyard of Sihai Restaurant, they each found a chair to sit down, waiting to watch Shaanxi's characteristic drama - Qin Dialect.

Before the actors took the stage, Gonggong Liu said to Liu Renyu beside him: "Brother Liu, our family came to you this time, first, to see if the reinforced concrete city wall is usable. ”

When Gonggong Liu said this, he first paused, and then he muttered a lot, and then said: "Brother Liu, before the silver is issued, our family has something to tell you, you also know that the original reward of the imperial court to the meritorious soldiers of Jingbian Fort should be more than 12,000 taels, but according to the rules, when the silver came out of the household, only half of it was left, and the younger brother and I did not move a tael of silver. I have to ask Brother Liu for your understanding. ”

"Hey! A bunch of shameless moths, even the mother's border soldiers have to be greedy for their money, what a fucking shamelessness! You deserve it, and Li Zicheng and Liu Zongmin will torture you in the future. Liu Renyu muttered in his heart for a while, but his mouth was calm: "I understand." ”

"Brother, it's good if you can understand us, fortunately, your Hongjunmen is not bad, and you didn't ask us to scrape another layer, so what we brought is 6,000 taels of silver, and when the time comes, you will check it, okay?" Liu Gong is fair.

Liu Renyu heard that Hong Chengchou did not get a vote from his reward again, but he didn't mean to be moved, after all, this military man had just taken away 100,000 taels of silver from him, and he had made such a large amount of money, if he didn't even let go of this few thousand taels, then this food would be too ugly.

"There's Brother Lao Xian." Liu Renyu smiled.

"It's just an errand order, how dare you say hard work. Yo! The masters are here, let's listen to the play. Father-in-law Liu took the opportunity of the actors to sing on stage, diverted the topic, and listened to the play with Liu Renyu.

The Qin dialect that these people listened to is a unique style in the northwest, which is characterized by high agitation and strong urgency. Especially the singing of the flower face, he opened his throat and roared loudly, the locals called it "breaking the head", and the outsiders joked: "Singing the Qin dialect, first, the stage should be strong, so as not to collapse; the second is that the actor should be in good health, so as not to get tired and sick; The third is that the audience should be bold so as not to be frightened.

However, after all, this Gonggong Liu and Chief Cai came from Shanxi, where the bandits were serious, and they were quite bold, and when they listened to this Qin dialect, they were also comfortable.

Liu Renyu waited for Gonggong Liu to listen to the drama for a while, and then asked coldly: "Brother Xian, brother, I want to ask you something." ”

"What's the matter, my brother just asks, if our family knows, I will tell you." Gonggong Liu took his eyes off the stage and said to Liu Renyu.

"I heard that there are differences of opinion in the imperial court on where to build a city in Liaodong, Sun Zhishuai said that he first built a city in Youtun, and then built Daling Fort, and Mr. Shangliang of the Ministry of War advocated the construction of Dalinghe Fort first, I don't know what the emperor and his old man mean?" Liu Renyu asked.

"Long live the master, the master generally obeys the minister's opinion." Gonggong Liu pondered for a while, and then replied.

"I see, it seems that it's mostly Da Linghe Fort." Liu Renyu nodded frequently.

"That's it." Gonggong Liu first nodded in agreement, and then said in confusion: "Brother, I didn't say you, why do you have to go to Liaodong to take risks?" ”

"Hehe, without him, just for one sentence - wealth and danger are sought." Liu Renyu caught a glimpse of Director Cai of the Ministry of Industry sitting next to him, so he didn't want to say that this was for advertising his own reinforced concrete, only for his own future.

Gonggong Liu also accepted this reason, he said with a smile: "Brother, this army under your command is also quite powerful, and it can actually kill more than 400 heads of Beiyu Zhenyi, the master Long live the lord has really praised you a few times, and this time, the generals next to him received an order from the imperial court, and they may not be willing to go to Liaodong, brother, you are good, you want to go to Liaodong, the emperor is very satisfied with your brother's loyalty to the country!" ”

"It is the duty of our courtiers to share the worries of our father!" Liu Renyu replied with a smile.

"Haha, my brother is right." Gonggong Liu stroked his palms and laughed.

"Let's go on with the play." Liu Renyu smiled.

"Okay." Gonggong Liu agreed, and then looked at the drama in front of him intently.

It was day and night, Liu Renyu deliberately arranged for the two Qincha to rest in the Sihai Restaurant, originally according to the practice of this era, generally speaking, it was to send a few cardamom women to serve these two messengers, but Liu Renyu felt that the gifts he had given were enough, and there was no need to come to this set again.

In addition, Liu Renyu is not like men in this era in his heart, who treat women as tools, he respects women very much.

These two Qincha have received so many benefits from Liu Renyu, so naturally they will not have any concerns about such things.

On the second day, the sky was bright, outside the west gate of Jingbian Fort, there was still a tide of people, or Liu Renyu took a group of cultural relics officials under his command to bid farewell to the two Qincha, the difference is that when these two Qincha came, they had a breeze on their sleeves, and when they left, they became tyrants in seconds.

The two of them sat in their four-wheeled carriages, looked at Liu Renyu and arched their hands: "General Liu, don't go elsewhere when you arrive in the capital, just go to our house to live, don't be polite to us." ”

"Definitely, definitely. When the two of you arrive in the capital, don't forget to promote my carriage, and I will want to sell it in the capital in the future. Liu Renyu replied with a smile.

"As long as you sell this carriage in the capital, if you don't say it, I will definitely solicit business for you." This father-in-law Liu has a lot of power and knows many rich and noble friends, so he replied with great confidence.

And Director Cai is usually poor, and most of the people he knows are poor, and almost no one can afford to buy a carriage, so he can only smile and not say a word.

"The two of you have gone all the way." Liu Renyu said.

"General Liu doesn't have to go far, let's go." In response, Gonggong Liu ordered the handlebar to drive the horse, drive onto the official road, and go straight to the east.

Before leaving, these two guards of the Qincha, a small officer from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division of the capital, deliberately rode their horses to Liu Renyu, hugged their fists and smiled: "I have thanked General Liu on behalf of the brothers. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's a small meaning, it's not a tribute." Liu Renyu smiled.

"Well," the little officer nodded, then waved his whip, whipped his horses, and led a group of men to follow behind the carriage of Gonggong Liu and Chief Cai, and left.

"Tianjun, tell the people to disperse, and then you," Liu Renyu said this, paused, pointed to his subordinates, and then continued: "And you all come to my conference room for a meeting, these two people go back to the imperial court and say, we are definitely going to Liaodong, now you all follow me to arrange the task." ”

"Yes, General." When a group of civil and military officials received the order, they all responded to the order.

*******

In the conference room of the Jingbian Fort Garrison Mansion, next to a rectangular conference table, Liu Renyu sat in a row, and on both sides of him, Li Jiye, Yang Desheng, Zhang Tiniu, He Ergou, Liu Renjie, Ma Wenshan, Wang Zuohang, Liu Renjie and other generals sat in turn.

"Gentlemen, please come here today, what is the matter, you are also very clear, this expedition to Liaodong, very dangerous, in line with the principle of more people and greater strength, I mean, this time we only leave 1,000 people to garrison Jingbian Fort, and the remaining 3,000 people will go with me." Liu Renyu ordered.

"General, if we go out immediately, our newly recruited soldiers have not yet completed their recruit training, how can this be good?" Li Jiye said.

"Jiye, this matter is not difficult, let's take the soldiers to Liaodong to train." Liu Renyu laughed.

"Well, look at my brain." Li Jiye touched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Dare to ask the general, who stays behind?" He Ergou asked nervously.

"Ha, Ergou, you just have to rest assured, I said that I would take you on the expedition, and I will definitely take you this time." Liu Renyu said with a smile.

"That's a good feeling." He Ergou breathed a long sigh of relief and said.

"Where's Renjie?" Liu Renyu asked loudly.

"Humble duty." Liu Renjie replied loudly.

"Jingbian Fort is our fundamental place, and now you are specially ordered to stay in Jingbian Fort, can your department use military generals to go out on your behalf?" Liu Renyu asked.

"This .......!" Liu Renjie looked at Sun Wuxi, who was standing behind Liu Renyu, with a slight hesitation.

Seeing this, Sun Wuxian hurriedly squeezed his eyebrows at Liu Renjie, hoping that the latter could recommend him.

"Renjie, what about you!" Liu Renjie said solemnly.

"This grandson is not sick and has been trained by the side of the lowly position, Wen Taowu is strategic, and he is not bad, and the lowly position recommends this person to go on behalf of the lowly position." Liu Renjie replied.

When Sun Wuxian heard this, he immediately smiled at Liu Renjie and extended a thumbs up to express his gratitude.

"Yes, Wen Taowuluo, it's not bad! Disease-free, is that what you're talking about? Liu Renyu turned his head and asked Sun Wuxian with a smile.

"Isn't that me, General, what kind of person I am, don't you know yet?" Sun Wuxi blinked his eyes and said happily.

"This expedition is very important, if you are the commander of an army, you must not play child's time, can you write it down?" Liu Renyu said solemnly with a straight face.

"So, does the general agree to be the commander of the cavalry?" Sun Wuxian said in surprise.

"Naturally, yes." Liu Renyu nodded.

"The lowly ...... should do their best to do the errands assigned by the general." Sun Wuxian said incoherently excitedly.

"Look at your little bit of talent, okay, do a good job, do a good job, let you be in charge in the future, if you don't do it well, this is the last time you will serve as the chief officer of the cavalry." Liu Renyu said coldly.

"The humble position will definitely be good at work, and I will never disappoint your love and the trust of Second Master Liu." Sun Wuxian swore a curse.

"That's it, all the gentlemen will go down and prepare their own preparations, horses, ordnance, armor, Anjia silver, food, these things will be handled by the logistics department, you just have to train the troops with peace of mind, and the order to go out is down, let's set off at any time." Liu Renyu advised.

"Yes, General," the generals agreed in unison.

"Well, Ergou, you follow me on the expedition this time, and you will temporarily be a battalion officer, in charge of logistics, okay?" Liu Renyu asked.

"Yes, General." He Ergou responded.

"Tianjun, when my army goes out on the expedition, all civil affairs will be handed over to you to deal with, can you be careful, okay, raise people?" Liu Renyu asked with a smile.

"General, don't bury the students, the students are even the Jinshi, and they still listen to you." Ma Tianjun smiled.

"What you say, I listen to it comfortably." Liu Renyu first replied with a smile, and then ordered loudly: "Adjourn the meeting." ”

In the following days, Liu Renyu was looking forward to the military order of the military department to transfer troops, he waited and waited, the winter snow melted, the river thawed, and the day of spring ploughing came, and the order did not come.

Wait a little longer, his own wife, as well as the wives of all his subordinates, have given birth, he got his wish and got a son who is very similar to Sun Yuyun, and the other generals, except for Liu Renjie, who got a daughter, are all sons.

He and his subordinates arranged the full moon banquet again, but the order has not yet arrived.

Then, after the end of the recruit training period, Liu Renyu held a big military parade, and as expected, the recruits under Yang Desheng won again, and he still didn't get his mother.

In this regard, Liu Renyu was very annoyed, this matter, Chongzhen was handed over to the court in the first month of the fourth year, and it was done in late May, and there was no result, and the efficiency of this work was too slow, don't you know that the military situation is like fire!

It was not until May 20, when the fields of Jingbian Fort had been loaded with wheat seedlings, that a letter from the Ministry of War reached Jingbian Fort.

The text said that the imperial court ordered Liu Renyu, a guerrilla general of Jingbianbao, to take the soldiers and horses of the headquarters and the craftsmen who built the city, and immediately went to Liaodong to cooperate with Zu Dashou and He Kegang to build the Dalinghe Fort City.

"The order of the Ministry of War is finally here, Liaodong, Zu Dashou, Huang Taiji, I'm here." Liu Renyu took this order, looked in the northeast direction, and muttered proudly.
