Chapter Twenty-Eight: There Is No One in the DPRK
Everything is going well, Ningyuan City is relatively safe here, and it has been a long time since Jiannu has come to harass him. The Ming army of Pen, Fun and Pavilion www.biquge.info was in full swing, and there was an endless stream of convoys and horse teams transporting supplies from Shanhaiguan and Juehua Island.
Huang Mingli is a serious seven-grade general banner of eight hundred, and it is normal for him to carry things with more than 20 people, and no one came to interrogate him after showing his waist card to verify his identity.
When Huang Sheng wore a civilian uniform and entered the city with more than 20 people, he didn't even have anyone to stop him from looking at the waist card and suing him, so he swaggered into the city directly.
Everyone entered the house Huang Sheng felt safe, and the heart of guarding against people was indispensable, what did the heads of the two Jiannu Bayala, seventeen vests, and step armor mean, Huang Sheng knew it.
If a hundred household officers of the Ming Dynasty obtain these first ranks, and the silver is still second, he will be promoted at least three or four levels in a row to become a four-grade garrison, and he can manage as many as one or two thousand soldiers, which means that he can be greedy for about 20,000 taels of silver every year to share with the adults.
History records that the discipline of the Ming army in the later period was corrupt, and it was not uncommon to kill good people and take risks, and they fought live battles with the rogues. The so-called living war is that the rogues give them silver and the heads of the common people, and they let the rogues flee and continue to loot, and then they follow behind to pick up the bargains.
And the main general of the Ming army has both military merits and silver, and the suffering is the common people who are safe and guarded, they have wolves in front of them and tigers in the back, and in the end they can't survive and everyone has become a mob.
Wealth is moving, on the front line, and in the field, what is the death of dozens of people? There are more Wenchen generals who have lost their lives in Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, and there is almost no one to care about the death of an eight-rank official.
Now that I have finally entered the city safely and returned home, and that bold military attache dares to come to eat black?
Gu San saw that everyone came back with all beards and tails, and brought back a lot of things, he was so happy, his body has basically recovered now, and he can walk freely without crutches, but some of them are limping.
Several women happily gathered around to ask this and that, and the little girl Gu Ling'er also took her brother Gu Shanhe's hand and chattered non-stop, and her big eyes secretly looked at Lord Huang.
She has lived a happy life for more than a month, and she has obviously grown up a lot, and the family members can see the joy of the family from the bottom of their hearts.
Li Dagang was a little emotional, and said with red eyes: "Damn, it feels good to have a nest." β
Han Guang scolded with a smile: "Hey, Dagang, if you can't speak, don't open your mouth, what is it called to have a nest, this is the official residence, is it good!" β
Everyone laughed, Li Dagang was a little embarrassed, and changed his words: "I said the wrong thing stupidly, it's our Huangfu." β
Huang Sheng said with a smile: "What is not a house, the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own kennels!" Don't you talk about what to do, Qiaozhen, hurry up and prepare hot water, I want to take a shower and clean up, and go to see Lord Mao Yuanyi. β
These ten days of wild life can make Huang Sheng's small body tossed and bitter, and now he hopes to soak in the bathtub the most, but unfortunately the Ming Dynasty did not have it, so he had to use a big wooden barrel.
Qiaozhen and Laifeng said: "Master, Brother Dongshan has already ordered the slave maid, you can bathe now." β
It turned out that Huang Dongshan was careful, and he found that the adults were constantly tickling on the road, knowing that this adult who loved cleanliness had endured so many days without taking a good bath, it should be uncomfortable to death.
As soon as he returned home, he asked the women to prepare a large amount of hot water, not only for the adults to take a bath, but also for everyone, and also asked them to hurry up and prepare the adults' official clothes for ironing.
Soon, the refreshed Huang Sheng appeared in the back hall of Mao Yuanyi's official office, Huang Sheng now found him without reporting, and the family directly brought Huang Sheng to see Mao Yuanyi.
He was very happy to see that Huang Sheng came back safe and sound, and asked with a few greetings: "Is there anything to gain from Xiaoyou's going?" β
The old god Huang Sheng was saying: "How can the lower officials have any gains, it is the adults who have made small contributions, and killed one Jiannu Bayala and three vests." β
"Huh?" Mao Yuanyi was shocked: "Xiaoyou really has a gain? Or the Jiannu White Armor Soldiers? β
Huang Shengxi took out four waist cards from his arms and respectfully handed them to Mao Yuanyi.
He took it and looked at it carefully, his beard trembled a little, and said, "It's really Jiannu Bayala's waist card, Xiaoyou, have you really succeeded?" β
Huang Sheng said: "The lower officials and the adults have the same heart, how can they deceive the adults, the heads, armor, and weapons are all available, and the family members have brought them to wait outside." β
Mao Yuanyi hurriedly called someone to go to the back door and let Huang Dongshan Gou'er bring things in, he was a little embarrassed and said: "Such a great achievement, why didn't Xiaoyou report to the superintendent himself, but give it to the old man?" β
Huang Sheng also had to do it, he was a seventeen-year-old scholar, and by chance, he was supported by Sun Chengzong, the master of Liaodong Economic Strategy, and completed the gorgeous turn from a scholar to a scholar in just half a year.
Just now, he has been promoted two levels in a row, and now if he reports such a great achievement, I am afraid it is not appropriate, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng, which is contrary to his plan to quietly seek development.
If the imperial court finds that it is willing to take the initiative to fight Jiannu, and build a tunbao in Liaodong to let yourself stick to Jiannu and fight to the death, it will be over, and his poor family is not enough to build slaves to stuff his teeth, so he resolutely cannot take up a real position, and it is best to make a false title and stay free.
Besides, he is too young, and it is impossible for the court to add an official to himself every time. It is better to use the military exploits as favors, Mao Yuanyi and Sun Yuanhua both have big officials in the imperial court, and they are good officials in the court.
I am alone, I must not climb too high in the case of no connections, Sun Yuanhua and they have been promoted, and they will be their own friends in the future, and they will become their own relationship network, so of course they will get a lot of benefits, why not?
Huang Sheng said truthfully: "Xiaguan is using conspiracy and trickery to sneak attack, and it is absolutely impossible to fight in a dignified battle, let alone defend a city, only by sneaking up on the enemy with guerrilla warfare and movement warfare can the Xiaguan's strengths be brought into play." β
Mao Yuanyi had a great feeling and said: "The soldier is treacherous, Rao is like this!" Guerrilla, movement? Well! Good words! Look for fighters in the constant wandering and running, and leave with one hit! Good, good, good! β
The scientist learned that his IQ value was really good, and he immediately understood the subtlety of Huang Sheng's tactics.
He was a little excited, and Huang Sheng easily won several times with negligible casualties on his side, and made small gains. In his heart, he was already completely convinced of Huang Sheng's ability to fight guerrilla warfare.
Huang Sheng's little bit of family is indeed too little, of course, he must take good care of them, and he must not let them consume them with Jiannu.
He solemnly said: "Don't worry, Xiaoyou, this official will explain to the Supervisor that except for the Supervisor, no one can transfer Xiaoyou and his subordinates in the future." β
Huang Sheng said: "My lord, this time the battle is quite fierce, and the losses of the subordinates' families are not small, and the gunpowder and Lumi armor are unsustainable. β
Mao Yuanyi said generously: "It's just a trivial matter, it's okay!" The official will notify Shanhaiguan, Ningyuan, and Juehua Island, and the little friend can go there directly to pick up the required materials in the future. β
As he spoke, he took out a sign and handed it to Huang Shengdao: "With this waist card, no one dares to make things difficult with Xiaoyou, and you only need to sign the documents out of the warehouse when you need to." β
This is Lord Mao Yuanyi's trust and affirmation of Huang Sheng, of course Huang Sheng can't mess around, let alone be greedy, and he can only enlarge some margin to receive materials as much as he needs.
There will be his own signature on the delivery list, and it is impossible for Lord Mao Yuanyi to ignore it, and if he asks too much, he will soon lose the trust of this adult.
This is equivalent to you asking for an account, and someone gives you a credit card with no limit, can you put money in your pocket without restraint?
Huang Shengdao: "The battle between Xia Guan and Jiannu is extremely dangerous, and it takes warriors who dare to fight to succeed, but brave warriors who are good at fighting are rare but not sought!" β
Mao Yuanyi said: "That's true, only calm, brave and tenacious soldiers can take on this important task. In this way, the official gives Xiaoyou some waist cards, if Xiaoyou fancy any soldier, as long as this soldier dares to go with Xiaoyou, Xiaoyou can take it away directly, and the official will deal with any lawsuit. The old man wants to see which martial artist dares not to give face to his official. β
Lord Mao Yuanyi made it clear that which soldier he fancied was not a military attachΓ© or a family member of a military attachΓ©. He also wrote a blank piece of official paper, to the effect that the general Huang Sheng had other arrangements for selecting soldiers who dared to fight, and he would be released when he saw this document.
After writing it, I used the seal letter and handed it to Huang Sheng. This matter is very simple, the soldiers belong to the imperial court, Huang Sheng is also an official of the imperial court, and the family under his command is also to fight against Jiannu.
Mao Yuanyi thinks that good soldiers may not be able to play a role at all in those Liaodong military attachΓ©s, and they may be able to shine under the command of Huang Sheng, who is good at fighting, as long as he can afford it, no matter how much he wants.
Huang Sheng is not stupid, it is impossible for him to dig up the family of the master general, these family members are treated well and there is little danger, why should he give up such a day and follow his birth to death?
Now that he has Master Mao's paperwork and waist card, he can look at himself and be willing to follow his soldiers to stay. It's a pity that it costs too much money to raise soldiers, and he makes them eat and dress well, and with his current pitiful savings, it is difficult to sustain at all, and he can't support many families.
At this time, Huang Dongshan, who went around to the back door, came and put the head and armor of Jiannu on the ground one by one.
Mao Yuanyi looked at the badly damaged armor and gasped. From the captured armor, one can imagine how thrilling the battle must have been.
He came to Jiannu Bayala's shiny armor to take a closer look, and said in amazement: "How did Xiaoyou do it?" The official would like to hear about it. β
Huang Sheng had already achieved his goal, and he was happy in his heart, and reported to Mao Yuanyi about his experience of using gunpowder to blow up Jiannu this time.
Master Mao was most interested in using firearms to annihilate the enemy, and he asked Huang Sheng to tell him in detail about what happened this time, and Huang Sheng didn't hide it, and told him everything before and after.
He ignored Huang Sheng because he was entrusted by Ma Shilong to deliberately find an opportunity to cut off Jiannu's head, which is also a rule of officialdom, and in the absence of a conflict with his own vital interests, everyone goes their own way and facilitates each other.
Huang Shengduo is shrewd, let Ma Shihu take Jiannu's head back to Shanhaiguan, the buyer will definitely report to the imperial court, Mao Yuanyi is on the front line, he will definitely be aware of it. People indirectly found that there was a world of difference between them and taking the initiative to inform them.
Huang Sheng took the initiative to tell him in detail about Ma Shihu's journey before and after he came to find him.
Sure enough, Mao Yuanyi was very happy after hearing this, thinking that Huang Sheng regarded him as a confidant and praised him. I was even happier when I heard that Huang Sheng had also prepared the head of Jiannu for his friend Sun Yuanhua, so he took Huang Sheng's hand and went to Sun Yuanhua and asked him to drink.
Of course, Huang Sheng happily obeyed, and the two of them happily came to find scientists. As soon as they met, Mao Yuanyi congratulated him, confusing Sun Yuanhua. He was really happy to see Huang Sheng, and he didn't ask Huang Sheng if he had gained anything, so he invited the two of them to drink.
