The morale on the school military field seems to have risen a little, the garrison listened to the whistle of the veterans, and stabbed the spears out over and over again, Liu Tingjie stood by with a wooden stick, and his mouth was still cursing - he was well-known in Yulin Town, and he went out with a group of veterans to earn extra money, and he lost face if he couldn't train the team.

Li Yu looked at it for a while, turned his back to the command department, and when he entered the courtyard, he heard Batu scolding loudly in the official room, and when he pushed the door, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and his two personal guards, Gao Heizi and He Dashui, were standing straight and being scolded.

"You came just in time, these two guys don't care anymore, they will go to the house to uncover the tiles in the future." Batu greeted, raised his foot and kicked Gao Heizi and He Dashui to Li Yu, "Tell me about the ugly things you did, you brought five women and more than a dozen ordinary people at one time, and they were caught by the inspection and made a lot of noise and disobeyed." ”

"Great Commander, those people are our Ningzhai villagers, who fled to Yulin, and want to marry their daughters outside the customs, so that they can rely on their son-in-law to find a bowl of rice to eat, they have to go out of the customs alive or dead, and they can't take them with them!" Gao Kuroko hurriedly argued.

"That's it, we do good deeds, why should the inspection arrest us!" He Dashui also screamed.

"I said why there are so many people who have been doing happy events recently, and those women in the gate are all abducted by you!" Li Yu was so angry that he slapped the table and shouted.

"Who said that, Xiao Laosi of the right battalion of the cavalry also did it, we only did it three times before we turned ......" Gao Heizi was kicked by He Dashui halfway through his words, but it was too late to remind him, Li Yu's whip came over, followed by a wolf howl.

"Seven lashes, seven lashes are enough." He Dashui took advantage of Li Yu's stunned efforts to pull up Gao Heizi and run - Li Yu has changed the habit of kicking people to whipping since last year, in order to prevent this stunned boy from getting into trouble, Ortai restricted the commander from beating people with no more than seven whips in the name of the Great Law Division, Li Yu often forgot to count, but others remembered it.

"That's it?" Batu looked at Li Yu with a smile.

Li Yu spread his hands and replied: "What can I do, there are more men and fewer women in Fengzhou, people are not looking for you to ask for a wife, find a way to solve it yourself, can you manage it?" If they hadn't brought me a dozen mouths to eat, I wouldn't have bothered to hit them. ”

"You're protecting the calf," Batu said with a mocking smile and helplessly, "Forget it, this kind of thing is not pleasing inside and out, and we have nothing to do with it." ”

While the two were talking, someone came to report that the Erji Lama was coming, and was waiting with the Angton Lama, Li Yu and Batu glanced at each other and ran towards Li Yu's house together. There was nothing going on at home, the two old lamas were happily holding a child, and after Ulan went out with the child, the four of them closed the door and began to talk about big things.

"Yuzi, I want to bring Zhuo Liktu to the Silver Buddha Temple, this child is noble and intelligent, I will teach him personally." In the long run, there must be a leader who combines both secular and religious powers in order to integrate the various tribes of the steppe and revive the former glory of Mongolia, and Li Jin is the most suitable candidate.

"Yes, Great Commander, if you don't solve these two problems, there will never be a day of peace in the grassland, you have to think about the future of Fengzhou and Mongolia!" Lama Aung Tung also said.

"No, no, it's best for my children to be safe and secure for the rest of their lives, and I don't want them to get ahead." Li Yu was stunned, and complained to the Lama Qiuerji, "You don't say that I am the reincarnation of Altan Khan, but I know that it is fake, what you summoned me to recognize in Meidai, Batu showed me in advance, you just don't believe it!" I don't want my son to lie to people too. ”

Lama Yuerji was furious: "Nonsense, who told you to deceive people, what do you know about Buddhist things?" You are the reincarnation of Altan Khan, who is the reincarnation of Emperor Dayuan Shizu, which is the cycle of life in the world. I have always fully supported you, just because what you did was completely consistent with the two ancestors, Emperor Shizu of the Great Yuan Dynasty issued money to promote industry and commerce, introduced Western learning and Western religion, and reused Han Confucian and Han officials, you did it, Altan Khan recruited the Han people to reclaim the wasteland and cultivate the land, and make peace and trade with the Ming Kingdom, you also did it, without the inspiration of the two ancestors, do you want to come up with these ideas? ”

"I don't know if Maidari Nomenhan is dead or not, so why do you say that my son is his reincarnation?" Li Yu continued to refute, he felt very aggrieved, those ideas were obviously someone else's, he just nodded in agreement.

"He died before Drorictu was born, Drorictu is the reincarnated spirit child, if Zorictu died after he was born, then his soul will be possessed by Zorictu, and Drorictu will directly inherit his Nomenhan Zun, this is up to us." The Lama did not back down.

"That's it, without the help of Altan Khan, the Yellow Sect would have been driven out of Tibet by the Red Sect, and it was even hidden from us to support the Fifth ******** Lama, we will never admit it, and the Mongolian Yellow Sect must also have its own leader." Lama Aung Tung said.

Disagree, resolutely disagree, Li Yu stubbornly insisted, saw Batu with a wicked smile on his face, and immediately shifted the target: "Monk Erji, Chagui of the Batu family is your great-nephew and grandson, let Chagui go to be Nomenhan." ”

"I don't care, if you like Chagui, just take him away, I can't control him anyway." Batu replied with a smile, his son Chagui was spoiled since he was a child, he was a famous demon king of the mixed world when he was in the Barbarian Mountain, and he did the bad things that children could do, he didn't fall behind, even the beard of the ancestor Erji Lama dared to pull out, Batu scolded and beat and beaten, it was still useless, after a few troubles, Ortai simply sent this bad boy to the Wuxuan camp to be disciplined, it is said that he was beaten several times by the children of the Tong Zi Whistle, and he has been reduced to the point of polishing his boots for Li Dingguo.

The old lama got angry and twisted his face to the side, and Batu hurriedly comforted: "Lama Xuerji, that kid from Chagui is definitely not this material, the Ada Hai of the Yuzi family was taken away by Chahar Khan, and you have to take Zhuo Liktu away again, Yuzi feels uncomfortable, it is better to slow down for a while, and wait for us to inquire about the news of Maidali Nomenhan before making plans." ”

"You two boys, you actually kicked such a big thing around like a ball, and you are not afraid of the gods and Buddhas!" The Lama left in a huff.

Lama Aung Dun followed Lama Erji for a few steps, then turned back and said, "Great Commander, you better think about it again, this is a major matter concerning the people of the grassland." ”

Li Yu looked at the backs of the two lamas, and couldn't help but complain in a low voice: "What's the matter, even choosing a lama will beat my family's idea." ”

"This is a good thing, other people's families can't take their turns, Zhuo Liktu is blessed." Batu responded with a hippie smile.

"Just him, he is still blessed?" Li Yu pointed out the door, and Li Jin was pouting and crawling on the edge of a wooden basin to drink yogurt.

In the past few days, the health center stopped training, and everyone had a holiday to prepare for the New Year - Fengzhou has changed a lot over the years, from the original nomadic to farming-based, the calendar naturally adopts the Ming calendar, and the Han people's festival Mongolians also have to live, the most important thing is the fifteenth day of the first month, but the second day of the first month is also very important, on this day all people can eat a big pot meal that does not cost money, and many people will also choose this day to get married to do happy events, and take the opportunity to save money for banquets. Du Hongtai counted that there are more than 200 couples who want to do happy events in Shenshui Beach alone, but almost all the brides are abducted from Guannei, and it is embarrassing to say that Xiao Sigui, Gao Heizi and He Dashui have made excuses to go on a business trip, and it is not easy to be a big media who is pointed at.

Li Fugui and Ma Guangyuan arrived at Shenshuitan at this time, and they also came with a large group of people, including Wu Langha with children, as well as the dependents of the battalion soldiers of the Flying Tiger Battalion and the Right Cavalry Battalion, and the Shenshuitan camp was lively all of a sudden.

The welcoming crowd was already waiting outside the camp, and according to the practice of putting the respected people first in Fengzhou, Wang Zheng stood in front, accompanied by Li Yu and Batu. Li Fugui and Ma Guangyuan first dismounted, bowed to the boss, and then exchanged greetings with the officials who greeted them.

"Hermes-Epitek has done a good job, and in less than a year, it has been in good order." Li Fugui walked towards the commander and envoy, and looked left and right at the camp.

"I don't know anything about government affairs, but I just copy the Fengzhou set, and it is Mr. Wang and Meng Qing who contribute a lot." Li Yu waved his hand and replied.

Wang Zheng shook his head slightly and said: "Otherwise, the Han people are ruled by inaction, and only by doing nothing can they be promising, and the old man would never have imagined that Hexi would develop so fast." ”

"Old horse, what are you doing with these little guys?" Batu frowned and asked, the boy sentry of the Wuxuan Camp also came, and the group of young sentry of the Flying Tiger Camp frolicked all the way, Xiao Li Jin also rode on Li Dingguo's neck and giggled, Batu's son Cha Gui followed the boss without falling a step and carrying the luggage.

"If I don't bring them, I will definitely make a fuss in the Barbarian Mountain, this time I will give Hadari their official titles, so that the little ones can see it." Ma Guangyuan replied.

The officials talked and laughed and entered the command department, and when everyone sat down in the lobby, Li Fugui announced the decree of the Commander's Office - the new establishment of the Department of Engineering and Construction, the appointment of Wang Zheng as the governor, and the administration of the western department of the Fengzhou Academy. All the officials got up at the same time to congratulate, Li Fugui also asked Mr. Wang to return to his post as soon as possible, the old man was excited, and tears almost fell - as a military repatriation official, but he can have such a preferential treatment, what more can the husband ask for!

"Dolls, seeing you suffering and sweating, my old man also wants to do more, I don't want to be an official position, let the young people do it, I want to go to Baoketu to build an iron factory after the New Year." Wang Zheng shook his head and said.

"Boss, there are things to do in Fengzhou, not only the iron factory, but also water conservancy and roads, and we young juniors still need you to bring it." Li Fugui said earnestly.

Under the persuasion of everyone, the old man agreed to naturalize, but after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he was reluctant to let the people here and want to spend the New Year with everyone.

Li Fugui nodded and agreed, and persuaded Li Yu to return as soon as possible, the governor has urged him several times, you can't always hide and not meet, let's leave it to Batu here.

"It's not all to hide from the governor, it's mainly because of Chahar, although Chahar Khan is weak, he is still the master of the Mongolian steppe, and if he doesn't play his banner, we don't have a good name, I want to see how the situation develops." Li Yu explained, and then scolded the imperial court for not understanding the situation outside the Guanwai at all, Chahar Khan just wants to eat, why must he be killed, if he is defeated, the steppe will be more difficult to control, and the Jin State will definitely take the opportunity to move westward, and the situation will be complicated at that time.

Batu said hatefully on the side: "Ma Shilong, the chief soldier of the Ming Kingdom, is cruel and tyrannical, blindly kills the Chahar people, and even kills the heads of the old and weak women and children to make military merits, now the Ming Kingdom and Chahar have completely turned their faces, this person will also investigate our funding of Chahar, we are in contact with the Northwest Jiangmen, we must drive this bastard away." ”

Li Fugui nodded and said: "The Great Commander's Office also thinks that the break between the Ming Kingdom and Chahar is a major mistake, and the defeat of Chahar can only benefit the Jin State, but how to solve Chahar has not yet taken time, and it is not appropriate for the Great Commander to stay here for a long time." ”

"It won't be long before I have a hunch that something is going to happen to Chahar Khan!" Li Yu said thoughtfully.

Li Fugui nodded, took out an official document from his arms and handed it to Li Yu, and said with a smile: "This is a deed of borrowing, we have to borrow money, it costs money for reconstruction and naturalization, money for the development of Ordos, and money for the whole armament war, this time it is 100,000 taels of silver, Li Jianji They have to sign and draw the pledge in person." ”

Batu approached Li Yu and glanced at the deed of deed, and couldn't help but scold: "Did they take less from us?" It's 100,000 taels, it's really generous, Yuzi, let's not borrow this Hades debt, they want to take away your authority. ”

"If you don't borrow for nothing, you can't afford to pay it back anyway, you want to pull me to show them the home, but I borrowed a lot of money, and I also pulled them on the boat, and no one can run away if the boat sinks," Li Yu pressed his handprint on the deed of borrowing indifferently, and said proudly, "I was originally a poor bastard, at most I will return to my original form, what is there to be afraid of!" As long as they are willing to pay a lot of money, the great commander can also let them be, I dare to say that the Ming Emperor can't borrow money if he wants to, my reputation is better than his. ”

Everyone laughed for a while, the position of the great commander of Fengzhou was given to those merchants, I am afraid they would not dare to do it, Wang Zheng smiled and said casually: "Emperor Ming does not borrow money, he only needs to collect taxes." ”

"It's better to rob." The eldest king immediately answered, which caused everyone to laugh again.

After finishing the business, everyone sat together again and chatted, Li Fugui joked at Li Yu - Li Yu still hasn't paid yet, and the businessmen may go to Wu Lang Ha Ha Tun, she is getting richer and richer, and she has just made a big deal with Shen Shoulian and Fan Yongdou.

Shen Shoulian's nest is in Jianghuai, shipping and Yangtze River shipping is his old business, and the investment in Fengzhou is not large, but he regretted it this time, Sun Tingyao and Li Jianji have been far ahead, he is a smart man, compared with the increasingly decaying and turbulent Ming Dynasty, Fengzhou is on the rise, and business opportunities are everywhere, but it is too late to grab it. Shen Shoulian, who was weak, chose to cooperate with Wu Langha, first invested 40,000 taels of silver in Wu Langha's Xuande Iron Works, and obtained 40% of the shares of Xuande Iron Works, and the other 60% were half of Wu Langha and Datong Surveillance Eunuch Liu Wenzhong, and then Fan Yongdou was 20,000 taels of silver, and he and Xuande Iron Works each contributed 40,000 taels of silver, and the three parties cooperated to establish Fengzhou Black Eagle Trading Company, and Wu Langha was promoted as the president. Shen Shoulian's series of dazzling measures reversed the weakness of the Shen family in Fengzhou in one fell swoop, and with the signboard of Wu Langha, it seems that he still has a slight advantage, and Wu Langha has the Shen family as the backing, and he is also among the Jin merchants and Qin merchants.

Li Yu was dumbfounded when she heard this, and it took a long time before she came back to her senses: "Good girl, my wife is so powerful, but my wife is a money fan, I can't ask her for money, and the businessmen don't want to ask for a tael of silver from her." ”

"Yuzi, you have money, bring the bride price, my daughter can't marry Hadari for nothing." Batu immediately reached out and asked for money.

"I'm going to find my wife." Li Yu pulled Li Fugui up and ran away, Batu hurriedly chased after him, and laughed so that the officials leaned forward and closed.

Li Yu and Batu accompanied Li Fugui to inspect a large circle in Shenshuitan, and only returned to the command office after dark, the three of them simply ate a few bites of food, and entered the study together.

"Hermes-Epitek, Batu, there is something that must be decided early, and our army needs to be rectified!" After Li Fugui sat down, he talked about Du Wenhuan's words and deeds at the council meeting, and Li Yu was a little restless when he heard it, pacing back and forth in the study.

Batu thought for a while and said: "Brother Nianfeng, this matter is not so serious, in all fairness, the old marshal is far-sighted, and it is also for us, and the army is quite stable, the current situation is unpredictable, and it is not appropriate to be in a hurry." ”

"The problem is not here, the Fengzhou army is only stable on the surface, but in fact, there are many internal factions, Lao Shuai has the Yulin system, Bai Xianzhi has the Datong system, Zhao Ji has the horse thief system, Terig has the Mongolian system, Asari has the Zhushen system, Ma Guangyuan, Zhou Yuji and Ding Qiming have also quietly formed the Jingying system, and the garrisons of the various government guards are mostly from the homeless people, forming the homeless system, here is simply a hodgepodge, there are everyone, some were even enemies before, one side has emerged, what should the other parties do? Many of them hold the position of senator and have the right to discuss political affairs, so what if there is a disturbance? We can't help but think about the future. Li Fugui replied.

Batu couldn't help but have a cold war, Li Yu was still young, everyone didn't think too much, having him in the Fengzhou Army was a whole that could not be separated, but if it was ......, Batu didn't dare to think about it, and set his eyes on Li Yu, he was still thinking behind his back.

"In my name, I propose to the Grand Commander's Office, Du Wenhuan will be added to the rank of Governor Tongzhi," Li Yu finally spoke, after this increase, the number of people with the title of Governor and Tongzhi increased to four-Liu Xingzuo, Batu, Zhao Ji, Du Wenhuan, Li Yu smiled bitterly and continued, "Officers at all levels of the battalion and garrison will be disqualified as parliamentary officers, and in the future, those who have military positions will no longer be awarded as parliamentary officers, and ask the Grand Law Department to set up a military law division to specialize in military justice and prison litigation affairs." ”
