Chapter 171: Taishou's new son-in-law
And just after Changshi Yang Chen left, from behind the screen in the hall where Zhang Chutao was staying, a person came out, "Father-in-law, it seems that this Yang Changshi is still unwilling to take the position of Taishou in Ji'an County!" β
Taishou Zhang Chutao snorted coldly at this person and said: "General Shi, the old man's daughter has not married you yet, you had better call the old man Taishou, as for Yang Changshi, he is a smart man, he has no military power in his hands, he doesn't dare to make any small moves!" β
It turned out that the person who appeared behind the screen was Shi Mao, the highest-ranking guerrilla general in the border army in Shangyuan City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Shi Mao said with a smile: "Father-in-law, since we have made an agreement, then this general will definitely marry Miss Zhang, as long as Miss Zhang has passed the three-year festival period, this general will marry Miss Zhang into the Shi family in the name of his wife." β
It turned out that Taishou Zhang Chutao married dozens of wives and concubines in his life, but these dozens of wives and concubines only gave birth to a daughter Zhang Wanting for Zhang Chutao, and no matter how hard Zhang Chutao worked hard for his wives and concubines, there was no movement at all.
is such a baby daughter, Zhang Chutao can be said to be very fond of her, and she has been cultivating her wholeheartedly since she was a child, and when Zhang Wanting grows up, she is not only a talented girl who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also a stunning beauty with the appearance of a captivating city.
It's a pity that Miss Zhang's life is not very good, she has been married three times, and the object of the marriage is either a sudden illness and died, or died of an accident, and finally the fourth marriage, and finally survived to the day of marriage, as a result, the newlyweds just finished worshipping heaven and earth, the groom had an accident again, the soles of his feet slipped, and he fell a heel, but unfortunately, the back of the groom's head hit the corner of the table directly, and the blood flowed immediately, and finally the groom was not saved, and his life was whimpered.
Since then, the baby daughter of Zhang Chutao has borne the title of a mourning star, and there is no family or a strong family, and then dare to marry Zhang Wanting, now two and a half years have passed since Zhang Wanting got married, and Zhang Wanting is only 21 years old, according to the customs of the Great Jin Dynasty, widows can remarry others as long as they keep the festival for three years, and the in-laws cannot stop it.
After Zhang Wanting's newlywed husband died unexpectedly, she moved back to her parents' house, too shou Zhang Chutao was heartbroken about her baby daughter's marriage, Zhang Wanting was only 21 years old, Zhang Chutao couldn't watch her daughter die alone, but Zhang Chutao couldn't find any kind of son-in-law, how could he find someone with a similar family background.
The question is that people with similar family backgrounds, who is willing to take the risk of marrying a mourning star, although Zhang Wanting's appearance can definitely be called a stunning beauty, but everyone has to weigh whether they have the life to enjoy this stunning beauty like a mourning star!
Just when Taishou Zhang Chutao was anxious about his daughter's lifelong happiness, Shi Mao, the guard of Shangyuan City, suddenly volunteered to stand up and expressed his willingness to marry Zhang Wanting to Ming Media, but Shi Mao asked Zhang Chutao to help him and obtain the position of Taishou of Ji'an County.
Shi Mao is only in his early thirties this year, and the Shi family belongs to the ranks of the generals in Shangyuan City, Taishou Zhang Chutao thought about it for a few days, and then agreed to Shi Mao's request, but because Zhang Wanting's three-year festival has not yet arrived, this matter has not been publicized, and even Changshi Yang Chen does not know that Shi Mao will become the new son-in-law of Taishou Zhang Chutao, otherwise Yang Chen will definitely not go to fight the idea of Taishou that position in Ju'an County again.
"Yang Changshi came in a hurry just now, and the old man didn't know what General Shi was doing here today?" Although Taishou Zhang Chutao decided to marry his daughter Zhang Wanting to Shi Mao, Zhang Chutao did not have much affection for Shi Mao, or Zhang Chutao, a loyal minister of the Great Jin Dynasty, did not have a good impression of anyone with evil intentions.
Shi Mao suddenly said with a serious expression: "Father-in-law, the son-in-law also sent someone to investigate the territory of Chengyin County, and the person sent by the son-in-law got more detailed information than the secret agent sent by Yang Changshi. β
"Oh? What else is there in Chengyin County? β
"Father-in-law, son-in-law's people reported that the partial general in Chengyin County, after capturing the Loufu Cangxiong tribe, almost moved the entire Cangxiong tribe back, because there were too many people and livestock, and the partial general named Liu Ji even directly occupied a large area of grassland outside the Xishan Pass to house the population and livestock!"
After a pause, Shi Mao continued: "And the soldiers and horses under Liu Ji's command are definitely more than 50,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry, according to the report of the son-in-law, Liu Ji has a total of thirteen battalions of cavalry and four battalions of infantry. β
Taishou Zhang Chutao frowned, "The thirteenth battalion of cavalry and the fourth battalion of infantry, the sum is less than eighty thousand?" β
"Father-in-law, son-in-law's people found out that there are about 10,000 people in a cavalry battalion under Liu Ji's command, and an infantry battalion has almost 8,000 people."
"What? How can it be? In this way, that Liu Ji doesn't have more than 160,000 soldiers and horses in his hands! Ahem, ahem, ahemβ" Taishou Zhang Chutao suddenly exclaimed, and suddenly coughed violently again.
"Father-in-law, don't get excited, that Liu Ji does have more than 160,000 soldiers and horses, and my son-in-law came today just to discuss with my father-in-law how to collect the soldiers and horses in Chengyin County for his own use."
Taishou Zhang Chutao coughed violently for a while, before he breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little more comfortable, and then Zhang Chutao shook his head and said: "Now it is not as good as before, the army generals in various places are almost fighting separately, although our Jue'an County is the county capital of Chengyin County, but the army of Chengyin County will not listen to the orders of Ben Taishou, as for the military order of your guerrilla general, I believe that the partial general Liu Ji will not pay attention to it, and it is impossible to incorporate the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Chengyin County!" β
"Father-in-law, the matter is man-made, once the son-in-law can control the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Chengyin County, not to mention Ji'an County, it is the entire Qianzhou, and it will also become the son-in-law's words, so the son-in-law came today, just hoping that the father-in-law can help a group of sons-in-law and deceive that Liu Ji to Shangyuan City, as long as the son-in-law controls Liu Ji, he can find a way to control more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of the son-in-law."
"Hmph-Dajin is because there are too many ambitious people like you, so you will become what you are today! The old man and that Liu Ji have never met, how can the old man help you trick him to Shangyuan City? And even if the old man can help you trick that Liu Ji into Shangyuan City, once you can't control the situation, and Liu Ji's army of more than 100,000 people attacks Shangyuan City, what should you do? Shi Mao, the old man won't help you, and he can't help you! β
