Chapter 268: Put it back

The officer of the Military Intelligence Bureau did not urge Zhou Daniu to leave quickly, he seemed to understand the brotherly feelings in front of him, wrapped the cloak on his body, and the officer of the Military Intelligence Bureau simply turned around.

It was silvery white all around, and there seemed to be some small black dots moving a few miles away...... Wen Zhongfa nodded secretly, he remembered that there was the Jiajiatai, which was an old military platform along the inner Great Wall to Datong, which had been abandoned for many years, there were about 60 garrisons before, and there was a small stone Taicheng, and later after the abandonment, some soldiers settled on the spot, married wives and had children, and gradually became a small village scattered along the mountain col.

From the hanging armor platform to the inside is thirty miles of piers, and further ahead there are several military platforms and forts.

From here, in the early Ming Dynasty, Datong was indeed a military front, and a large number of military forts were set up in the hinterland of Datong, and the several invasions of the tile spurs at that time were from Datong to Xuanfu, and there were also records of going from Bauhinia Pass, and the hinterland of Shanxi and Datong was also invaded many times.

And now the western front is very stable, the Ming Dynasty fixed the western territory in Gansu Town, and the Han and Tang dynasties to the west have not been recovered.

The original internal defense line was abandoned, and it became a place where a small number of villages and a large number of bandits gathered, the mountains were like the sea, and with the weakness of the Ming Dynasty, there would be no magistrates to do anything serious about suppressing bandits, not only here in Datong, but also everywhere in the north and south.

The 100,000 mountains in Xiangxi in the south are the famous bandits' nests, farmers who plough the land during the day, and take a kitchen knife at night to rob the road, Shandong is also a horse from the horse, and there are even many groups of thousands of people in the Chongzhen period.

Datong is here because there are many mountains, and bandits are born.

"If the adults are solid to exterminate them, I'm afraid these guys won't be able to jump for a few days!"

Wen Zhongfa muttered in his heart, but quickly drove away this undesirable thought.

Don't talk about these things, even those military leaders at the top will not dare to think about it, with the strength of the archers of the Inspection Department mastered by Zhang Han, of course, there is no problem in carefully exterminating the bandits, but it comes down to one question: why?

The superiors don't like to exaggerate the bandits, and they don't want to reward them, Zhang Han still has to pay for the bandits by himself, and he can't get political benefits, even Wen Zhongfa feels that he can't do it.

As for mixing sand into the bandits, obtaining information, and doing what is needed from time to time, this is the right thing to do.

"Okay, Zhou Daniu, you can continue to walk."

Wen Zhongfa turned his head and said to Zhou Daniu: "Your task is simpler than Chengfang, simply put, it is to smoothly get to the Yu Shicadres in the Jiatai, regain trust, and then do nothing, how you used to be, how you are now, that's it." ”

Zhou Daniu said: "There is still a reluctant request in the bottom, I am willing to serve in the army as an archer, just start as a small soldier." ”

"Your request will be considered." Wen Zhong said: "Of course I can't be the master, but I will report your request to the higher-ups." ”

"Hmm."

Zhou Daniu nodded, hugged his fists and said, "So there will be work." ”

He struggled out of the sadness he had just had, clenched his fists and turned to leave, without any feeling of dragging his feet. From a frontier recruit to a veteran, to an officer who led hundreds of people, then failed and was captured, then tried, and now appointed, Zhou Daniu's life for more than a year is actually the epitome of many border army soldiers, but his luck is very good, he did not die in Salhu, nor did he die in Kaiyuan, nor did he die in the thousands of miles of running and running, and now he has a new hope in his heart.

For Zhou Daniu, he is very happy to serve Zhang Han.

During the training period, in addition to special training, Zhou Daniu and others also ate and lived with the archers every day, it can be said that he and Cheng Fang have never seen such a strong army in front of them after so much experience!

said that it was an archer, in Zhou Daniu's opinion, the most elite family in Liao Town was not as good as the archer army in front of him.

Strong is only one reason, the important thing is that this army has centripetal force and cohesion, Zhou Da Niu has seen too many troops, all of them are scattered, civil officials despise martial arts, regarded as slaves, military generals intrigue with each other, more than one merit, generals in addition to the family, regard the battalion soldiers as abandoned children, the battalion soldiers are uneven, military discipline is very corrupt, only the army here in Li Zhuang is like an army, the whole group has a collective sense of progress, staying in this group, making people feel at ease, I can't wait to stay all the time, never want to leave.

In addition, the salary is high, ordinary soldiers all take the salary of the family, the salary of the officers is higher than the first level, the highest division is paid hundreds of dollars a year, and Zhang Han also gives them additional rewards, and the high income is simply breaking through the sky in Zhou Daniu's heart......

In addition to the barracks, there are also the entire Li Zhuang and the surrounding manors, so many tall water wheels, those neat acres of fields and the canals of Gugu flowing water, and the spirit of the people is also very good.

Due to the identity, the Military Intelligence Bureau restricts Zhou Daniu and others to the core point, but the potential of the three bureaus is known to everyone in the army, and there are also the cargo trucks of the Lingqiu Iron Yard that do not stop transporting fine iron, the shape of this kind of car is also very special, the chassis is very low, the frame of the car is flat, a large number of fine iron is placed on it, and a car can receive more than six or seven thousand catties.

Just what Zhou Da Niu saw was enough to attract ...... Even before leaving, he had to ask again, willing to serve in the ranks of the archers, rather than being placed somewhere else to work as a laborer.

"This man is smart." Looking at Zhou Daniu's back, the bald head bared his teeth beside Wen Zhongfa and said, "I want to stay in the camp, the camp is good, I want to stay." ”

"Less nonsense." Wen Zhong ordered: "Tonight, I will make an appointment at the mountain temple outside the Jiajia platform, Zhou Daniu is personally watched by the adult, and his information should be received as soon as possible and sent back to Li Zhuang as soon as possible." ”

"Save." The bald man still looked careless, but quickly left along the ridge, and soon became a small black dot in the snowy mountains.

……

When Zhou Daniu walked halfway, the sky had become dark and uncertain, the wind was strong in the mountains, and the snow on the trees and ridges was blown up by the strong wind, although the sky above his head was a big sunny day, but in front of his eyes was flying snow, and he could hardly see the road clearly.

From the place where he was separated from Wen Zhongfa all the way to grit his teeth and move forward, in the evening Zhou Da Niu finally arrived outside the Jiajia platform, in the distance this small village has almost no houses, and there are almost no roads leading to the mountains, except for Zhou Da Niu along the ridge of the sheep intestine trail, from this abandoned military platform to each direction to go over several mountains, here is the standard deep mountain, even after the development of science and technology after a few hundred years, it is estimated that it is difficult to have road traffic, but also belongs to the kind of criminals are easy to hide, communication relies on roaring, and wives rely on buying backward places.

Of course, Zhou Daniu will not have those thoughts behind him, he is just sore, looking not far away, but he walked for half a day, and he was moving forward in such a harsh environment, he almost used up all his physical strength.

When he arrived outside the village, he saw wisps of cooking smoke, and Zhou Daniu's body was so weak that he almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, a few guards saw him and ran all the way.

"It's Zhou Tou'er back!"

Fortunately, it was an old department of Zhou Daniu who led people on duty, and this small leader hurriedly helped him into the outskirts of the village, but he did not dare to continue to move forward, there were still several blockade lines ahead, and Zhou Daniu knew at this time that Yu Shiqian did not live in the village, but lived in the abandoned military platform.

"Isn't it cold there?" Zhou Daniu entered the house, there was a fire pit in the house, the pit was stuffed with burning wood to chop wood, the red flames kept providing heat energy, the pit was hot, and the temperature in the house was much higher than outside.

No one knew what Celsius was all about, they didn't know that it was about -30 degrees Celsius outside, but that didn't stop them from wearing thick leather jackets and applying thick grease to the exposed areas of their hands and faces.

"It's cold, but I also prepared a lot of chopping wood." The little leader sighed: "Zhou Tou'er, you came back late, I don't know that a while ago, our brothers didn't do anything, they were chopping and picking up firewood everywhere, and the big cabinet drank and scolded people every day, for fear that the firewood would not be enough." ”

For a while, he even thought that Yu Shiqian, who had gone to Shaanxi or Gansu to rebel, had fallen to such a point and become decadent.

At this time, someone handed hot water up, and Zhou Daniu casually asked, "How many brothers are left?" ”

"There are more than five hundred, maybe six hundred, and many people have come back recently."

"In addition to me, there are many other people who have called for it to be put back?"

"Well, there are dozens of them."

The little leader replied, and said, "I heard that the inspection surnamed Zhang has negotiated with our big cabinet, isn't it?" ”

Zhou Daniu smiled bitterly: "I have been locked up over there, they have been reporting merit one after another, beheading and killing, I don't know when I lost my life, how can I have the heart to care about other things, when I said a few days ago to let me come back, then I want to inquire is not time." ”

"Alas, we're really unlucky." The little leader said: "Fortunately, there are still many old brothers, and they are not injured at all. ”

At this time, there was a noisy voice outside, Zhou Daniu looked out through the blurred window, and saw many figures going to the village, he asked, "Who are these people?" ”

"Recently, Lao Zhou has pulled the line." The little leader said defenselessly: "There are dozens of large cabinets of poles nearby, saying that they came to visit our big cabinet a year ago, and I don't know what wild medicine is sold in the gourd." ”

When Zhou Daniu heard this, he immediately stood up and said, "Forget it, since there is something to do, I won't stop, hurry up to the military platform to see the big cabinet." ”
