……

After resigning from Li Zhiye, Li Gui found Zhang Shixiong's residence, where a bunch of young officers gathered unexpectedly.

There are quite a few people who have experienced the scene just now, and some of them have rushed to hear the news, and the highest officer position is the bureau chief or deputy hundred chief, and more are flag captains or team officers.

"Shixiong, you're doing the right thing." A flag captain named Ma Wu raised his arms and said, "What's wrong with those people above?" Who wasn't pulled out by an adult? I'm not afraid of you laughing, I'm originally a little guy, I can't eat a full meal when I get up early and get up late, if it weren't for adults, I would have today? ”

"Me too, I was originally following behind the tiger, if it weren't for the adult, I would have been killed by the standing cage."

"I'm a miner, and if it weren't for the adults, I'd be drilling in the mine right now."

The crowd was indignant, and Li Guiyi's words were not easy to say for a while, at this time Zhang Shixiong waved his hand and said: "The people above are also the same as us, they are all bitter, even if they decide not to send troops for a while, they are not in a hurry, and they are not disloyal. ”

This is true, these young officers didn't say this when they shouted, some people accidentally flashed in their hearts, and after Zhang Shixiong said this, this kind of undesirable thoughts were also thrown out of the clouds.

"But the words have to be said at both ends...... Zhang Shixiong continued: "The group of people above, what the officers didn't say, either Lahu, or porters, or miners, or military households, or we are young men who have been used by adults since childhood, little beggars are first-class, they are all deeply gracious, I Zhang Shixiong is here to say a word, if there is any accident for adults, I will definitely not leave my life in the world, I will be a soldier to eat food, this is the proposition of adults, if I, a soldier, call adults to fall into any accidents, what face do I have to live in the world?" ”

Zhang Shixiong's words were not high-pitched or intense, but no one doubted his determination.

Li Gui originally came to calm everyone's anger, but it was difficult to speak out at this time, because everyone had an approving look on their faces, even if Li Gui himself was ...... The only death through the ages is difficult, but you can ask yourself, everything is from that adult, there is no need to mention the deep feelings, that kind of admiration and respect is also engraved in the bones, even if he can't say that he wants to repay him with death as Zhang Shixiong, but this heart is actually the same for everyone.

"I mean......" Zhang Shixiong said with a straight face: "We are soldiers and eat food, we don't have many eyes, don't talk about twists and turns, those who read, this officer and that showman, lift people, usually look good with adults, commensurate with the words, get along with friends, but what do you think in your heart, who can dare to protect it?" ”

Zhang Shixiong's words were not finished, and everyone was already shocked!

Zhang Shixiong's words are nothing more than Sun Jingting and Li Shenming, Li Dongxue and others are also from a buddy, not from outside, nor are they scholars, unlike Sun and Li who also have extensive contacts outside.

Sun Jingting has the Dongshan Association and the Lingqiu Chamber of Commerce as support, Sun Yao Li Shouxin and others in the mine line may also support him, Li Shenming has the support of the chambers of commerce in various places, he is good at dancing with long sleeves, and has a good relationship with the chambers of commerce in various places, and he is not well connected in the army, but he has a deep foundation in the business and the chamber of commerce, and besides, the external liaison has always been Li Shenming, it can be said that under Zhang Han, people outside only recognize Li Shenming!

These two people, if anyone has the idea that "the big husband can replace him", how can he get it?

It is no exaggeration to say that the tens of thousands of soldiers in Datong Town are not the opponents of Yusheng at all, unless it is Taiyuan Town, Yansui Town, and Xuanfu Town, the power of the four towns can join forces, and they can almost have a head-to-head duel with Yusheng, and the outcome is unpredictable.

But this is only under the current situation, in the second year of the Apocalypse, the expansion of the war army is limited, and the cavalry, artillery, and officer preparation are the top priority, and in the third year of the Apocalypse, the financial and manpower have been relieved, and at that time it is the time to greatly expand the army, to what extent, what scale, now except Zhang Han, I am afraid that no one has a score, but the people below privately discuss that it is estimated that it will be expanded to about six to eight battalions, that is, between 24,000 and 26,000 people!

When the time comes, the artillery of the whole battalion, the cavalry of the whole battalion or even two battalions, and a large number of infantry, think about the majesty of this army, and how huge the strength will be!

Of course, if it really comes to that point, what merchant groups, civil training regiments, guards, and dart masters of the dart bureau can't hide it, and the magistrates with a little wisdom and vigilance will feel that something is wrong, but everyone is also confident that as long as Zhang Han skillfully maneuvers, this matter will not be troubled to the Beijing court, and it will not be a great event after all.

Besides, if you take 10,000 steps back, there are really tens of thousands of soldiers, with 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers, not to mention that the four towns are not opponents, even if they cross the Bauhinia Pass and attack all the way to the Beijing Division, is it absolutely impossible?

This kind of thinking, two or three years ago, was called delusion, but now it is already a "consensus", in the minds of many people, Zhang Han has the ability to expand thousands of miles outside the Saiwai, of course, he also has the ability to toss the world upside down within the Ming Dynasty, what kind of governor, patrol, if he really makes a fuss, what about the emperor?

In the private words of Ma Wu and others: "Our adults are just thinking that our ancestors have received the grace of the Ming Dynasty, and now the emperor has not lost his morality much, and the emperor is only a weak crown year, children, what are we adults really going to do, don't we become bullies?" If someone dares to make irresponsible remarks, the mess of those cats and dogs, good people don't learn, learn from that dead man Han Qi, I'm afraid Han Qi's fate will be better than him! ”

These words, of course, are also rare drunken nonsense, but the truth is seen in the nonsense, at least among these twenty or so officer corps cultivated by Zhang Han, Ma Wu's words are actually a mainstream opinion.

Young people are inherently unruly and difficult to tame, not to mention that these young people are martial soldiers. And the political atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty is generally very relaxed, these officers talk in the barracks behind closed doors, and there are even fewer taboos, even Li Gui, an officer with a more mediocre and peaceful personality, often hears these words, and fills his ears.

"In short," Zhang Shixiong said: "This part of our adult's inheritance, whether it is private property or the piece in front of us, must not fall into the hands of outsiders, first of all, we must ensure the safety of adults, and then put an end to the ambition of others. ”

"What do you say?" Ma Wudao: "Everything is only the head of the world's eldest brother. ”

Others nodded one after another, and Zhang Shixiong said, "How can I have this qualification?" I'm an advocate, everyone discusses things together, and everyone is equal. ”

Li Gui nodded slightly, Zhang Shixiong didn't give him a very good impression just now, he felt ambitious, and he felt a little chaotic. Now it seems that it is really passionate and loyal.

Since he thought so, Li Gui interjected: "Everyone has a good heart, but now there must be no changes, once there is internal chaos, it will give Beiyu an opportunity to take advantage of......"

Of course, this is not very in line with everyone's thoughts, but everyone, including Zhang Shixiong, nodded.

……

When the news reached Xinghebao, Li Shenming and Liang Xing, Yang Sisun and Duo'er and others happened to hold a military meeting, so everyone gathered very together, and after everyone received the news, Duo'er was the first to say: "When can we send troops?" ”

Li Shenming and Liang Xing glanced at each other, of course their eyes were full of anxiety, Liang Xing shook his head lightly, and said: "The enemy situation is unknown, just know that Jining Fort is besieged, how many soldiers and horses, armor soldiers, herdsmen, how many people are captured in the north, how much is the logistics capacity, where is the main force, who commands the troops, these situations are not known, and rashly deciding to send troops will only have bad results, so what I mean, do not send troops for the time being, wait for further news, and the other is to communicate with Xiaohei River and Daheihe to see what Mr. Sun says." ”

Yang Sisun pondered for a while, and said: "My lord issued a military order in Jining Fort before he was trapped, and Mr. Sun and Mr. Li will take care of all military and political affairs on the grassland. ”

Li Shenming nodded slightly, most of the generals here in Xinghebao are mature generals, and most of them are people from Liang Xing's family, it is quite easy to check and balance by himself, Liang Xing is mature and steady, and he will not be impulsive, but on Sun Jingting's side, many generals and officers do not accept their backgrounds at night, and they are afraid that there will be border army habits, once Sun Jingting can't control the scene, the situation may be very bad.

Li Shenming didn't say anything about this concern, but just echoed Liang Xing's sentence, and ordered him to immediately send more detectives to ride Tang Ma to the area of Jining Fort to find out the news, and at the same time sent Tang Ma to contact Sun Jingting.

As for Li Zhuang's side, Li Shenming and Sun Jingting maintained a considerable tacit understanding...... At this time, there is no need to inform Li Zhuang and Xinpingbao, it is just chaos.

"Recently, the business has been maintained well...... "Since the troops have not been sent for the time being, although everyone is distraught, they still have to continue the agenda.

Duo'er is in charge of the business road, he frowned and said: "The main forces of the northern captives are in the west, go east to the inner Khalkha tribes to make friends with us, the Horqin ministries and the eastern captives are allied, they will naturally contribute, there is no problem on the east road, the weather has been warm and summer, the food shortage everywhere has been alleviated a lot, and the eastern captives are not very short of food, now their purchases have decreased, the grain they buy is no longer the main goods, but the main ones are cloth, groceries, vegetables, etc., our fleet has been cut a lot, fortunately, the cloth is large, and there are still a lot of profits." Recently, what makes people feel strange is the movement of Xuanfu Town. ”

Li Shenming said movingly: "Is there any abnormal activity outside Xuanfu Town?" ”――
