Liu Renyu said goodbye to Hong Chengchou, and did not return to his camp directly, but first went to Liu Wuguo's camp to narrate, after all, in this battle to destroy the lone wolf's department, Liu Wuguo also made a lot of efforts, and the matter of assigning credit could not bypass Liu Wuguo in any case.

In addition, he will be separated from Liu Wuguo tomorrow, and of course he will talk about business matters.

At this time, Liu Renyu and Liu Wuguo were already very familiar with each other, and when Liu Wuguo's personal guards saw Liu Renyu coming, they even omitted the link of informing their own generals, so Liu Renyu walked into Liu Wuguo's big tent.

"Yo, Brother Xian, you're here, do you have anything to do with me?" When Liu Wuguo saw Liu Renyu coming, he asked.

"Brother, naturally there is something, first, we killed the lone wolf this time, how do you think this credit should be divided?"

"Naturally, you are in charge of this matter, brother, and I don't contribute much, brother."

"No, no, my brother sent Liu Renjie and Sun Wuxian to cut off the lone wolf's retreat, so we can capture the lone wolf, so I plan to give my brother the first merit, and then kill the two thousand heads, I will count the five hundred levels for my brother, how about it?"

"How does this make !? Brother, I just rushed to the battlefield with people, and you personally led people to capture those heads. If my brother agreed, wouldn't it be too heartless. Liu Wuguo saw that Liu Renyu was so generous at every turn, and the thickness of his face was already up to the city wall of the Beijing Division, and he was still a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, it's okay, my brother and I are both members of our own family, and my brother has also made a big contribution, so I gave my brother these credits. I hope that my brother's official son will rise higher and higher, then your business in Yulin should get better and better, and my dividends will be more and more, you see if this is the case. ”

"Brother, if I think about it carefully, it's really true, and since you said so, brother, I can only say thank you."

"It's all my own people, why should my brother be polite, the younger brother just finished talking about the first thing, the second thing, the 30,000 taels of silver that my brother needs to pay when he joins the gang, and I ask my brother to give it to the younger brother as soon as possible."

"Brother Xian, you just have to rest assured, brother, as soon as I return to Yulin, I will send someone to deliver the silver taels to you."

"That's very good. The third thing, hehe, little brother, I will marry Sun Yuyun, the daughter of General Sun Kuisheng, the deputy general of Yan'an on the 18th of next month, and I will invite my brother to appreciate his face and come to Jingbian Fort to have a wedding wine. ”

"Yo, this is a happy event, brother and I will definitely arrive, you can rest assured, brother and my share of money will definitely not let you down."

"Brother, what are you talking about, you just need someone to come, why bother to bring money!"

"This is all the rules, brother Xian, you are from Taixi's side, maybe you are not good at this, but since you are here to my Daming, you naturally have to follow the customs."

"That brother is going to break the bank."

"It should be, it should be." Liu Wuguo waved his hand, not caring at all.

"Okay, brother, the younger brother has finished everything, tomorrow we will each lead the troops back to the station, and the younger brother will say goodbye to my brother here first. I wish my brother a smooth journey. ”

"Okay, brother, I also wish Brother Xian a smooth journey."

After the two generals of the Liu family said goodbye, Liu Renyu went back to his camp to write a letter of invitation.

*****

The next day, when the sky was bright, Liu Renyu first handed over the petition to Hong Chengchou, and then led his subordinates to bid farewell to Hong Chengchou, Du Wenhuan, Liu Wuguo and other generals, and led the troops back to Jingbian Fort.

Yan'an City is 300 miles away from Jingbian Fort, if the cavalry gallops, that is, a day and night of hard work can be reached, but there is no need for this, the army returns triumphantly, just march calmly.

The Jingbian Fort army walked for three days before returning to Jingbian Fort.

Before entering Jingbian Fort, according to the usual practice, it was still to let the people of the fort who did not have anything particularly important to do, as well as all kinds of civil and military officials, all come out to greet them.

Then when entering the city, the corpses of the fallen soldiers were at the forefront of the Jingbianbao army, followed by the generals below Liu Renyu.

Liu Renyu met Ma Tianjun and Li Jiye when he entered the city, but he did not greet him.

Liu Renyu planned to take the civil and military officials of Jingbian Fort to send the bodies of the fallen soldiers to the Martyrs' Shrine first, and then do other things, after all, he was now practicing the politics of the First Army, and since it was the politics of the First Army, he could not just shout slogans, but also keep up with the action.

When the soldiers and civilians in the fort sent the bodies of the fallen soldiers to the Martyrs' Shrine, Liu Renyu said to the officers and soldiers who accompanied him on the expedition: "You wait and go to the barracks first, and the weapons and armor will be handed over to the logistics office for preservation, and I will talk to Tianjun and Jiye." ”

Yang Desheng, Zhang Tieniu, Ma Wenshan, and Wang Zuo gave the order, bid farewell to Liu Renyu, and each took his subordinates to the barracks.

After these generals left, Liu Renyu took his personal guards Liu Renjie, Sun Wuxian, He Yaozong, as well as Ma Tianjun and Li Jiye and others to return to their garrison mansions.

When walking on the road to his garrison mansion, Liu Renyu looked around from time to time to observe the street appearance of Jingbian Fort, as well as the clothes and expressions of the people.

It is said that not long after Liu Renyu entered Jingbian Fort, he led his subordinates to go on the expedition, which means that he has not had time to govern Jingbian Fort well, which means that Ma Tianjun is on the council during this time, and he plans to observe the situation of Jingbian Fort to see how Ma Tianjun managed Jingbian Fort in his absence.

I have to say that after Ma Tianjun's careful management, Jingbian Fort is no longer the original old appearance of the old and young and poor, although the houses in Jingbian Fort are still dilapidated, but the streets are very tidy, almost no garbage can be seen, although the people's clothes are still shabby, but the mental outlook is very good, there is no longer the numbness of Liu Renyu when he first saw them, Liu Renyu saw a smile on their faces, and saw the yearning for a better life.

"Tianjun, my Jingbian Fort is clean and tidy, and the people are also very vibrant, I am very satisfied with your work, you have done a good job." When Liu Renyu saw this, he praised Ma Tianjundao.

"My lord, the student is just learning what you did in Zhenbei Fort, drawing a scoop according to the gourd, and doing it again, in the final analysis, you are quite talented in governing the place, and the student is just stained with your light." Ma Tianjun listened to Liu Renyu's words, and immediately shot a super sycophant.

"Oh, Tianjun, I haven't seen you for many days, your ability to govern civil affairs is good, and your ability to speak has risen faster, and you actually slapped me on the back without knowing it, you really have you."

"Adult, the student expresses his heart directly, what he says is the truth, there is really no lie, the student really doesn't know why the adult says that the student is good at speaking?" Ma Tianjun said innocently.

"That's it, that's it, Tianjun, the way you look is what a scholar should be. Speaking of which, I seem to be asking you something, let me ask you, if the imperial court opens Enke, do you want to participate in the imperial examination and get a reputation? ”

"My lord, the students encountered great difficulties back then, and they had already looked down on the imperial examination, and the students did not want to participate in the imperial examination." When Ma Tianjun said this, his face suddenly darkened, as if he remembered the unbearable past.

"Heavenly Monarch, the deceased has ascended to the Pure Land of Bliss, and the living do not need to carry too much unnecessary sadness. If you have been studying for many years, if you can't get the name of the subject, your life's efforts will be in vain, wouldn't it be a pity? I still expect you to be able to enter the rank and become an official in Shaanxi and help me! When Liu Renyu said this, he suddenly looked at Ma Tianjun with blazing eyes.

"My lord, originally the students didn't want to participate in the imperial examination, but the adults recreated the grace of the heavenly monarch, since the adults want the students to participate in the imperial examination, the heavenly monarch just went."

"That's very good, I remember that Chongzhen opened Enke once in the first year, and then opened Enke next year, you can catch up, but before you catch the exam, you have to review your homework to succeed."

"My lord, the student is just a show talent at the moment, and he is not qualified to go to Beijing to participate in Enke, and the student must only take the examination first, and first obtain the fame of lifting people, and then he is qualified to go to Beijing to catch the exam." Ma Tianjun saw that Liu Renyu was wrong, so he didn't think about it, and immediately corrected him.

"Yo, look at my memory, I'm wrong, I'm wrong. Ha ha. Liu Renyu was robbed of a sentence by Ma Tianjun, and suddenly felt very shameless, he first laughed for a while, and then continued solemnly: "By the way, when it comes to the township exam, this autumn and August is the time for the township exam, you will first take the exam, and then go to the Jinshi exam." It shouldn't be difficult for you to take the exam, right? ”

"My lord, you also look up to students too much, how can students have such great ability."

"Tianjun, you have to have confidence in yourself, you are a person who studies in Jiangnan, most of the Jinshi in the world are from Jiangnan, and I still know this law. It may be a little difficult to take the imperial examination in Jiangnan, but in Shaanxi, I think it should not be difficult for you. ”

"When the adults said this, the students remembered that the students are already in Shaanxi now, and they should take the township examination in Shaanxi, if it is in the ........ of Shaanxi, uh." When Ma Tianjun said this, he suddenly looked around vigilantly, and then swallowed the sentence 'Shaanxi, a place with few readers', back into his stomach.

He was stunned for a while, and then continued: "If the student is in Shaanxi for the examination, there is a great chance of being promoted in the examination, but the student is now a military member, and according to the regulations of the imperial court, the military is not allowed to participate in the imperial examination." ”

"Is this still a thing? When I have time to ask Hong Junmen for a favor, I will change your citizenship back to the people in minutes. After all, you yourself were framed by the eunuch party, and now you are sitting in the court by the Donglin party, no matter what you say, it will help you. ”

"If adults help students restore their citizenship, then students will naturally go to the township test, and they must try it anyway."

"Yes, no matter what, you have to give it a try, I believe that with your strength, you will definitely be able to test for the fame of lifting people." Liu Renyu said such a sentence on his lips, and then said in his heart: "If you can't pass the exam, then I will secretly buy you a lifter, that is, a matter of several thousand taels of silver." ”

In this way, Liu Renyu told Ma Tianjun about the imperial examination, and everyone had already traveled to the left of the Jingbian Fort Garrison.

When he arrived at the door of his mansion, Liu Renyu suddenly remembered something and said to Liu Renjie before stepping into the gate: "Go, invite Zhao Datie Zhao's father, I also have something to ask him." ”

"Yes, sir." Liu Renjie got the order, so he went straight to find Zhao Datie.
