During the trip to Jinling, the fundraising organization was very successful, Bi Maokang and Zhang San came forward to invite, Zhang Bin personally appeared to explain, and the representatives of the shopkeepers of the major business gangs really showed strong interest.

However, Zhang Bin did not let Bi Maokang and Zhang San invite representatives of all the business gangs of the Ming Dynasty, this time only the representatives of the Huizhou business gang, Longyou business gang, Ningbo business gang, and Jiangxi business gang were invited, as for the other business gangs, it is too far away from Fujian, Zhang Bin does not want them to mix for the time being, after all, at this time, the transportation still relies on manpower and animal power, thousands of miles away, and it is very troublesome to transport goods.

Zhang Bin has already discussed with the shopkeepers of the major merchants, let them go back and report to the big shopkeeper, and at the same time prepare the silver, and half a month later, gather in Fuzhou on time.

Delayed in Jinling for nearly two days, Zhang Bin led more than 50 horsemen to continue to set off, this time he did not detour, nor did he stay, he directly led people through Ningguo Mansion and Huizhou Mansion, and turned into the official road connecting Nanzhili and Fujian.

After passing through Yanzhou Mansion and Quzhou Mansion in Zhejiang, the group finally entered the boundary of Fujian, and then passed through Jianning Mansion to arrive at Fuzhou Mansion, where the Political Envoy Department of Fujian Chengxuan and the Fujian Capital Division were stationed.

This Jianning Mansion is also the residence of the Fujian Xingdu Division, but the Yamen of the Fujian Xingdu Division is in the capital of Jianning Mansion, if you want to go, you must go to the southwest, and Fuzhou Mansion is in the southeast of Jianning Mansion, Zhang Bin is too lazy to detour, and directly led everyone to the southeast of Fuzhou Mansion.

On this day, everyone was running on the mountain road between Jianning Mansion and Fuzhou Mansion, and suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind them.

If it is an ordinary trader or a convoy transporting goods, in the vast mountains of northern Fujian, you will definitely be frightened when you hear the sound of horses' hooves behind you, here, there are bandits!

Zhang Bin, of course they are not afraid, even if the most powerful Houjin Tie Cavalry is here, more than ten horses, one mandarin duck array can overturn them all, they have four complete mandarin duck arrays.

The mountain road here is not very wide, four columns in parallel, almost the entire road surface is occupied, originally Zhang Bin saw that there was no one on this road, so they let them scatter and run, now that someone has come up from behind, naturally they can't disperse so far, whether it is against the enemy or to give way, they must change the formation.

Zhang Bin thought about it, directly raised his right hand to let the people behind him slow down, and then said to Qi Yuangong beside him: "Yuangong, let them all turn around, line up in two columns on the left side of the road, and set up a mandarin duck formation to take precautions." ”

The mandarin duck formation on this horse is naturally more troublesome than standing on the ground, however, Qi Yin selected the elite of Qijiabao who have been trained since childhood, and the kung fu is also not bad, and soon, the four columns behind will be assembled into two roads, and four single-column mandarin duck formations will be discharged.

Zhang Bin and the others also turned their horses' heads and looked at the rear, wanting to see who was coming, and they were running faster than them.

After a while, more than ten horsemen turned out at the corner of the mountain road more than two hundred steps behind them, and looking at their outfits, they turned out to be Ming cavalry!

Here, how could there be cavalry of the Ming army?

Although there are only more than ten horsemen, but looking at their momentum, they are definitely elite in a hundred battles, and there are no such elite cavalry in the south of the Ming Dynasty!

These more than ten horsemen are obviously also in a hurry, and the reason why their speed is faster than Zhang Bin and others is not that they are desperately beating the horses and urging the horses to gallop, but because their riding skills are better than the elite of Qijiabao.

It can also be seen from this point that they are definitely the elite cavalry of the Ming army, and the cavalry of the general Ming army, it is good to have the elite riding skills of Qijiabao.

Zhang Bin saw that it was the cavalry of the Ming army, and the trace of alarm on his face disappeared, it was good if he was not a bandit, if it was a bandit, he would have to spend some effort to kill, even if they had an absolute advantage, the damage to the personnel and horses could not be avoided.

They were in a hurry, not a war, and Zhang Bin naturally didn't want anyone or horses to be injured and slow down the overall running speed.

The more than ten cavalry cavalry of the Ming army behind soon came to the front, and the strange thing was that they did not gallop past with their horses, but slowly slowed down and stopped next to Zhang Bin and them.

At this time, the leading general of the Ming army directly hit his horse and came to Zhang Bin and arched his hand: "Dare to ask this son, but is it a descendant of Duke Qi Wulie?" ”

Good guy, Zhang Bin saw clearly at this time that this Ming general was even more burly than his eldest brother, and his square face was like a knife cut out, full of fortitude!

Zhang Bin suddenly became interested in this general, and he asked with great interest: "Oh, have you ever seen the wolf?" ”

He thought that as soon as the Ming general met, he asked them if they were the descendants of Qi Jin, the commander of the Qi family's army, and they should have seen the wolf whire, so they all had this question, and sure enough, the Ming general nodded and said: "I have seen the wolf whith held by the Qi family army from a distance, and I didn't see it too real, but there are not many people who use bamboo as weapons, and even the bamboo branches are kept. ”

Zhang Bin nodded and said, "Well, this is indeed the unique wolf of the Qi family's army, but I am not the descendant of Duke Qi Wulie." ”

The Ming general was stunned when he heard this, these people were not Qi Jin's descendants, so who were they?

Seeing this, Zhang Bin hurriedly pointed at the Qi brothers and smiled: "These three are the sons of Duke Qi Wulie. ”

When the Ming general heard this, he immediately bowed his hand to the Qi family brothers and said: "Duke Qi Wulie fought the Jiannu cavalry in Liaodong, although he was outnumbered, he was able to kill thousands of Jiannu elite cavalry, and he was deeply admired. ”

When the Qi brothers heard this, they hurriedly returned the salute, but Zhang Bin was stunned.

Liaodong? This won't be the legendary first fierce general Cao Wenzhao in the late Ming Dynasty!

He hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Dare to ask Your Excellency, but is it General Cao Wenzhao?" ”

When General Na Ming heard this, he was taken aback, he was an ordinary guerrilla general in the Liaodong Army, not a well-known general, how could anyone know him thousands of miles away!

He couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't it Cao Wenzhao, dare to ask Your Excellency?" ”

Sure enough, it was Cao Wenzhao, Zhang Bin laughed and said: "Hahahaha, I have heard for a long time that General Cao is brave and unparalleled, and when I see it today, it really deserves its reputation, and this official is Zhang Bin." ”

When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he hurriedly bowed and said: "It turned out to be Lord Zhang, the last general Cao Wenzhao, see Lord Governor." ”

Zhang Bin hurriedly raised his hand and said, "General Cao, no courtesy, no courtesy." ”

Cao Wenzhao bowed his hand again and said, "Thank you for the grace of the governor's promotion." ”

In these years, if there is no connection, it is very difficult for a military general to be promoted, like Cao Wenzhao, who fought bloodily in Liaodong for more than ten years before he got mixed up with a guerrilla general with no grade, this unknown Master Zhang, but he was promoted to the general of the third grade at once, and he was naturally grateful.

Zhang Bin smiled slightly, and said pretendly: "General Cao is polite, I heard that General Cao has outstanding military achievements, and it is a matter of time before he is promoted to general or even the general army, and this official just mentioned to the emperor that he did not dare to take credit, and he did not dare to take credit." ”

This seems to be shirking, but in fact, it is telling Cao Wenzhao, yes, it was I who spoke to you in front of the emperor, and you were promoted to a general.

When Cao Wenzhao heard this, the color of gratitude in his eyes became even stronger, he didn't know how to express his gratitude, he was stunned for a while, he suddenly pulled the young general next to him and said: "Change Jiao, hurry, quickly see the governor." ”

When Zhang Bin heard this, he was inexplicably surprised, this time he really made a lot of money, this is also buy one get one free, Cao Bianjiao is no worse than Cao Wenzhao, if he didn't die in the battle of Songshan at a young age, his achievements would definitely surpass Cao Wenzhao.

In terms of pure combat power, he is even more fierce than Cao Wenzhao!
