All the generals in the room laughed, if you look carefully, Liaoxi Jiangmen looked at Man Gui's eyes with jealousy and helplessness, this person has fledgling, not like Ma Shilong is rough on the outside and fine on the inside, but also a little timid, Man Gui is a rough man, relying on Sun Chengzong's trust in him to do things without scruples, and because he can get along with the soldiers, so in the past two years, Ma Shilong has only attracted a small number of Liaoxi generals, his own strength is still not enough, but Man Gui already has quite strong strength, and he has completely gained a foothold in Liaoxi.

Speaking of Mangui's promotion speed is also a legend, Wanli forty-seven years when he was a small military attaché, as a result of Yang Hao's defeat to the imperial court recommended several generals, including Mangui, and then Jiliao Governor Wang Xiangqian admired him, Mangui was promoted to guerrilla, and later promoted to Xifengkou general.

When Sun Chengzong arrived in Liaodong, he fell in love with Man Gui as his own Chinese army, and was directly promoted as the deputy commander-in-chief, and Mangui spent more than ten years from the general flag officer to the hundred households, and then to the garrison, and as a result, from the garrison to the deputy commander-in-chief, it took less than five years.

Now Sun Chengzong will release Man Gui out again, preside over the defense of a city and the affairs of Tuntian, as long as Man Gui does his part in a decent manner, the position of the general army will be stable in one or two years.

The Ming military general, to the general army is the apex, and then there is the post of the world, and the martial arts career can be said to be no regrets.

Man Gui faintly understood the meaning, he already knew that it was Zu Dashou who raised himself before he came in, and then nodded slightly to Zu Dashou, and then hugged his fists and said to Sun Chengzong: "Since the cabinet lord said so, the general will definitely do the assigned things well." ”

"Okay." Sun Chengzong just likes Man Gui's down-to-earth character, among the generals in Liaoxi, Ma Shilong gives him the feeling that he is calm and has the style of a general, while Man Gui is rude and realistic, and he will do things very well in a down-to-earth manner, and the advantages of Man Gui are like this, so Sun Chengzong can tolerate Man Gui's rudeness.

"Lord Cabinet," Man Gui continued, "since you can bring grain in, why don't you evacuate the people." ”

"Difficult." Sun Chengzong said: "We must be on guard against the return of the Jianyu army at any time, and some old and weak, women and children will be removed from the mountains while transporting grain, but more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians want to withdraw from the mountains in a short period of time and then withdraw to Ningyuan with the army, how difficult it is." And once there is a war when Jianyu returns to help, and the people on the mountain come down in a short period of time, and they have not been transferred, wouldn't it be handed over to Jianyu to be slaughtered. If this happens, even if no one is impeached, the old man will not have the face to stay in the position of superintendent. ”

All the generals nodded, the mountain road is difficult and dangerous, even if you don't send food to concentrate on withdrawing people, it is doubtful how many more than 100,000 people can be withdrawn, and once the fight starts, the people must be abandoned as soon as possible, this is obviously easy to see, even if Sun Chengzong personally leads the troops, it is impossible for the army to risk being annihilated to protect the people. Once a tragedy really happens, then Sun Chengzong really has only one way to go.

Man Gui said again: "I don't know what happened to the cabinet lord to requisition and transfer carriages from He Yusheng?" ”

Sun Chengzong's face showed displeasure, and he said: "Zhang Han asked Mao Zhisheng to transfer me a letter, and the words are very absurd. The old man felt that this man was a little self-righteous, and he didn't say anything, and he boasted a lot of promises to provide a large number of carriages and horses, and the more this happened, people did not dare to believe him. Recently, I have asked people to requisition as many carriages as possible in the area from Guanmen to Yongping Mansion, and I can only try to squeeze some out. ”

Speaking of this, Sun Chengzong frowned, obviously feeling distressed about this expense.

Although the military salary of Guanning in the imperial court is more, but Sun Chengzong spends money too fast, in the four years that the old Sun Tou presided over Guanning, he repaired nine large cities, forty-five military fortresses, sheltered hundreds of thousands of displaced people after the battle of Guangning, just outside the city of Ningyuan opened up 500,000 acres of land, established twelve car battalions, five water battalions, two firearms battalions, and eight forward and stamina battalions, more than 100,000 soldiers, spent millions of taels to build a large number of warships to set up a naval division and cast a large number of weapons, armor, bows, firearms, At the time of his departure, the situation of Guangning wartime Ming only 40,000 soldiers and horses and a mountain customs was very different, Forte 400 li, as well as Denglai and Dongjiang Town supported by Tianjin, although it did not experience the test of the war, and the main goal of Nurhachi was also on the Mongolian ministries, but when Sun Chengzong presided over Guanning, it did effectively curb the encroachment and attack of the Houjin, and the absence of a war does not mean that Sun Chengzong is doing useless work.

The third year of the Apocalypse was also the peak period for Sun Chengzong to spend money, and at this time, because the soldiers and civilians of the Thirteen Mountains spent a lot of money, not only Sun Chengzong was distressed, but the generals on the side also showed painful expressions.

"That's right," Sun Chengzong said to Man Gui and Zu Dashou: "This time I will go to the Thirteen Mountains, and if possible, I will repair Jinzhou City." ”

Man Gui said knowingly: "Jinzhou is the throat of western Liaoning, this city was destroyed by Jianyu last year, and it should be rebuilt." ”

Zu Dashou was even more excited: "The end of the construction of Ningyuan will miss once, rebuild Jinzhou, the end will definitely do his best, please rest assured!" ”

"Repair Jinzhou," Sun Chengzong said: "We must continue to repair Dalinghe Fort, and then repair Songshan, Xingshan, and Tashan forts, and Guangning will be half back." ”

All the generals present bowed down and bowed together: "Lord Cabinet is wise!" ”

……

Man Gui because there are many things in the Chinese army, he came out of Sun Chengzong's house and went back to his signing room, and then dealt with the matter at hand, but today he has no way to calm down, from time to time someone comes to his room to congratulate him on his promotion, although Man Gui is still the deputy chief soldier, but he was ordered to preside over such an important place as Ning Yuan, which shows that the position of the chief soldier is not far away, and although the full-time party is not as close to the cabinet as the Chinese army, but the benefits of the full-time party are also incomparable with the Chinese army, and Ningyuan City has not been completed, The city was built very strongly, and the imperial court allocated a lot of money, and a general like Man Gui who was in charge of the project only needed to divide the money according to the regulations.

Man Gui himself knew in his heart that before he went out, he called a guerrilla, who was his close confidant, who specially trained his family for him. Man Gui glanced at this guerrilla and ordered: "Let go of the wind, the monthly salary is two or two, four, the wasteland of Ningyuan City reclamation is one hundred acres per person, and the level of archery and horses is assessed by you, it is best to be a veteran who has been on the battlefield, regardless of which town they are from, and they don't have to change their surnames, but they must recognize Lao Tzu as their father-in-law." ”

The guerrilla first listened with a smile, and finally saw that Man Gui was speechless, he arched his hand and said: "Congratulations, my lord, there are more than 400 people in the family, and it is estimated that your family will soon exceed 1,000 people." ”

"Fuck you."

Man Gui scolded and blasted the guerrilla away.

It was almost noon, seeing that more and more people came into the house, not only military generals, but also some low-grade civil officials and officials with heads and faces, Sun Chengzong's family and unwilling staff also entered the house to say a few words of congratulations, Man Gui is Sun Chengzong's military attache in the Chinese army, and these people can deal with each other, they came to congratulate him also to make a good fate, and prepare for the future to Ningyuan to fight the autumn wind.

Although Man Gui is a rough person, he is coarse and fine, otherwise he will not be able to do well in the Chinese army, and there is no way to be the general soldier of a town.

Seeing that he was about to be blocked in the house, Man Gui casually made an excuse and hurried out of the governor's mansion with a few guards.

"Lord Man," at the corner of the door, Zu Dashou, who had already changed into civilian clothes, squeezed out a stiff smile and arched his hand: "How about drinking two cups together?" ”

"It's better to be respectful than to obey." Man Gui also squeezed out a smile.

One of these two people is a Mongolian with a round face and a beard, and his smile is uglier than crying, and the other is a Liaodong man with a tough face and a tough face, and he also has a heart of stone, and of course there is no beauty in laughing.

Fortunately, the two of them did not come to appreciate each other's smiles, in Shanhaiguan here Mangui is the head snake, he asked the servant to bring the bag, returned to the gatehouse to change into civilian clothes, and then took Zu Dashou to find a quiet courtyard, after seeing Zu Dashou's confused eyes, Man Gui said: "It's quiet here, in addition, the quality of the food is very good." ”

Opposite this courtyard is the avenue, and there is a huge building complex, several carriages full of goods in and out of the courtyard, Zu Dashou patted his leg and said with a smile: "I know, this is the semicolon of Yusheng, and the people of Yusheng are rich, and they are all wealthy businessmen." Therefore, this courtyard is specially designed to greet those big merchants and shopkeepers. ”

Man Gui nodded: "That's true, but now the officials in the city often come here. ”

Zu Dashou said: "I heard that although Zhang Han is from the northwest, he likes to eat southern food, and it has been obvious in the past two years, so the people of He Yusheng also love to eat southern food, and they still like the dishes in the area of Zhun An Fu." ”

Man Gui had no expression on his face, and he wondered in his heart: Zu Dashou is also a martial artist, why is he so attentive and particular about these things?

Zu Dashou had a smile on his face, after all, Man Gui was a poor Qiu Ba who came from the general banner, and he couldn't compare it with his background as a general, even if he came into contact with some things, he didn't know why.

Man Gui saw Zu Dashou's expression out of the corner of his eye, he didn't speak, and when he arrived in the room, Man Gui pointed to his seat and said, "Lord Zu, please take a seat, today is also congratulations on your appointment as a general." ”

Zu Dashou suddenly had a sense of frustration, the other party was rude, or did it from the bottom, but he is now the deputy chief soldier, and he is only a general, his family background is better than others, his ability is stronger than others, but he is more defeated than others, laughing at Man Gui, he is not as fucking as even Man Gui?

Zu Dashou suddenly bowed and said: "Today's main thing is to congratulate your lordship, congratulations to your lord for presiding over Ningyuan's defense and Tuntian's affairs, with real power in hand, there will definitely be a lot to be done in the future." ”

"Hmph." Man Gui snorted and didn't answer.

Zu Dashou didn't feel embarrassed, there were a lot of quirks for generals, and Man Gui was already good.

"To build Jinzhou City, according to the following news, the imperial court allocated about 140,000 yuan of silver, even so, there will be a considerable number of people who write to Jinzhou to be ruined, and there will definitely be additional allocation of silver, Lord Man, you and I will definitely work together to rebuild Jinzhou, and we will cooperate well in the future to serve the imperial court. Ningyuan reclaimed land, there are a lot of them, and the adults move to defend Ningyuan, and they can help the adults to lead the inner Ding and the generals to settle down, so as to settle the hearts of the army. ”
