Chapter 408: Meteorological Prosperity One after another

The capital of Hejian Mansion is Hejian, but Hejian City is more of a military location, and the real first fat shortage is Cangzhou Zhizhou, known as the leader of Hejian Prefecture.

This is a checkpoint node of Caoyun, not to mention, there is a big salt field around the Changlu Salt Field, which is a first-class and wealthy place, and the next step of the Cangzhou Governor has always been the Hejian Governor's, but the great position and fat shortage have always been the hardest relationship and the most skillful person to serve.

Cangzhou Zhizhou is in Hejian Prefecture and has always been considered the second person after Hejian Prefect, which is also a special case in the Ming Dynasty.

The magistrates who came to the Jiaozhou battalion to transport the people and supplement the military supplies were vaguely headed by this Cangzhou Zhizhou, and the gun shot the first bird, and when the sky fell, there were tall people there to support, as long as this high status made a statement, everyone followed it, anyway, there was no need to bear any responsibility.

When outside, the Shandong cavalry who led the way was also polite, and explained to the villagers that the heads of these Tartars were to be transported to Beijing to repay their merits, although it was cold and frozen, but they also had to do some antiseptic treatment, such as lime and medicinal herbs.

Placed on the edge of the canal to do the last step in the sunlight and cold wind, it is not to scare everyone there, these gentry in Beizhili, and even the magistrates, rarely see this officer and soldier have such a gentle and polite attitude towards themselves, everyone's mood is better, and they don't care about the strange smell of Beijing.

In the Beizhili Hejian Mansion, which is adjacent to Jinan Prefecture, some big businessmen know the details of Shandong, after all, they often have commercial transactions, so they are not very surprised after entering the barracks area.

But those local big landlords, state and county officials, these people usually rarely leave their own one-third of an acre, even if they hear rumors about Shandong soldiers and horses and Shandong land boundaries. It was just a joke to listen to it, and today I was surprised and deeply shocked to see the barracks area and the behavior of the soldiers.

There are large armies stationed everywhere in Beizhili, and everyone can see what the soldiers look like, the camp is like a market, and the soldiers are like bandits. Military discipline is corrupt, nuisance to the people, and chaos is unbearable. Beizhili is not only Hejian Province, but other prefectures and counties are also similar.

Civilian families have not allowed their children to join the army to serve the country, believing that this is a business done by criminals and morally corrupt people, and a large number of scoundrels and ruffians have gone to mix the clothes of soldiers. Under the protection of the army, they have committed crimes in the local area, which is even more despicable.

No one expected to see such a look in the Shandong military camp, and these people who came today went to those military camps in Beizhili to reward the labor army a lot, and most of them led the team to enter. The soldiers in the barracks shouted and laughed, and lined up to watch, which was a normal thing, and as for the immediate harassment of petty thieves. This is not uncommon, and even how to distribute the materials of the labor army, it was immediately fired, which is also seen.

After seeing the Jingguan outside, everyone was sweating in their hearts, thinking that the Shandong army didn't know how to be rude, but as soon as they entered the barracks area, they found that everything was in order. The soldiers either practiced there or passed by in a procession, not at all looking at these civilian people who sent labor and military supplies, as if they did not exist.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and after walking a few steps, the officers and civilian officers in charge of the quartermaster and aftermath of the Jiaozhou battalion came over, and since a large number of civilian men and women had arrived, they had to start cleaning and cleaning up the battlefield as soon as possible. It's been a three-day delay. Although the weather is colder, you can't be careless. Lest there be a major epidemic after the war, which is too close to Shandong, it will inevitably be affected.

The officials of the Shandong army look very young, and there are already people in the labor army who have prepared small cloth bags, this is the first wave of Shandong officers encountered, and they have to do a little bit or two, which is also the rule.

However, these young officers said a few words, and after completing the formalities with the person leading the team, they immediately left with the people, without saying a word of nonsense, let alone asking for bribes, and the clerk with the small bag did not even have a chance to come forward to talk.

Weird, weird, everyone sighed a few words in their hearts, and continued to move forward, this camp is not the market seen in the former Beizhili, but a real military camp.

The soldiers' tents were neatly arranged, and there were open and clean roads between the brigades, and from time to time there were cavalry teams on horseback patrolling the ground.

Quiet, neat, disciplined, this is the first impression to everyone, everyone except sigh, there is nothing else to say, but after walking for a while, as it goes deeper, no matter which direction the labor army team is, everyone feels depressed in their hearts.

Shandong soldiers and horses is a real army, but also after the war, in the barracks, every officer and soldier's gestures, are as if there is nothing permeated with forest and murderous atmosphere, these come from the people, on weekdays are good middle and upper-class, high-class people and civil officials, where can bear.

The states and counties in the same direction are a team, Cangzhou direction, Cangzhou and Xingji, Qingxian one state and two counties, that Zhendong General is a first-class military general, these states and counties are the largest local officials, Cangzhou from this direction is naturally Cangzhou Zhizhou, Fan Enlu is a staff member of Cangzhou Zhizhou, is the usual master.

Fan Enlu is Chinese New Year's Eve three years old today, as a master of Zhizhou, he can be regarded as a young man at this age, and he is a very young character. Fan Enlu was a member of Beizhili in the eighth year of Chongzhen, and he was originally the son of a local magistrate, and he will also have a bright future in the future, enjoying wealth and prosperity.

However, after the Tartars entered the customs and plundered Beizhili and Shandong in the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, Yang Sichang, the minister of the imperial court, was convicted of meritorious service and killed a large number of civil and military officials in Beizhili, and Fan Enlu's father was also among them.

After this incident, the originally very good family situation suddenly became embarrassed, Fan Enlu originally wanted to enter Beijing to catch the exam to see if it was possible, but now he wants to support his family, and secondly, he is also a little disheartened by the Ming officialdom, and the matter of continuing the scientific examination is put aside.

Cangzhou Zhizhou and Fan Enlu's father have been friends for many years, and after this incident, he was also the son of a poor old man, so he simply arranged a position for Fan Enlu in the yamen. The first is to let him be familiar with this yamen experience, and he will have the opportunity to be a petty official in the future, after all, he is also a meritorious person, and others can't say anything about being an official, and secondly, how much income is also a subsidy.

Among his contemporaries, Fan Enlu was a thoughtful character, and he was also anxious about the collapse of this great tomorrow, and wanted to find a solution. But the things he saw in his eyes and listened to in his ears would not have any effect on the current bastard situation, and those ministers in the court were even more worthy of the description of the word corpse vegetarian meal.

The Cangzhou Zhizhou Yamen he came into contact with was also a mess of everyone, unintentional, and everyone was desperately trying to fill their pockets. Enjoying the time and drinking, Fan Enlu persuaded Cangzhou Zhizhou to cheer up or do something practical every time, and the other party was going over with haha.

Once it may have been persuaded in a hurry, the Cangzhou Zhizhou also said something to him:

"Nephew, you don't want to be a person who asks for your life for the people. Is a loyal and diligent good official, who doesn't want to make a career, but now this officialdom. Everyone is like me, if I am honest and diligent, that is unique, different from others, then it will inevitably be framed by everyone, and then I will end up in ruin, it is better to be so muddy every day, and collect some common filial piety. It also restricts the people below who are not too dark-hearted, this conscience is passable, what a loyal martyr Lu Xiangsheng is the Governor of the Governor, he is not alone in Julu and has not even had a nickname, if I am like my nephew you said, I am afraid that I will not be as good as Lu Gong! ”

These words seemed to be a slap in the face, which made the ambitious Fan Enlu immediately understand a lot of things. After this conversation. He was also interested in inquiring about what other state capitals were doing. As a result, he was even more disheartened, everywhere, even worse than this Cangzhou.

Fan Enlu, who was originally ambitious, had no hope for this great tomorrow, and as a result, every day except after finishing his duties in the yamen, he didn't ask anything else, and when he went home to chat with his wife and mother, he occasionally popped out an angry sentence, "This world will be over."

In such a situation, Fan Enlu was privately thinking about where to go except for the Ming Dynasty, thinking about the world, it seems that only Li Zicheng, the king of Huguang, Henan, can defect, no matter what the government says, what is a big victory today, a big victory tomorrow, but the news in the open and secretly shows that Li Chuang's career seems to be snowballing bigger and bigger, quite a new dynasty.

In fact, it is purely from the emerging political system, and the same is true for the Tartars outside the Guan, but Fan Enlu still has a little backbone, how can people be in the company of birds and beasts.

As for Li Meng in Shandong, despite the arrogance, Shandong Taiping, and rumors that are different from other provinces everywhere, but in the eyes of Fan Enlu, this person is just a military general of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty is corrupt, and no matter how different the generals in the system are, they will collapse with this Ming Dynasty, and they have no value.

This time, Abatai led the troops into the customs, and in the north of Zhili, the Ming officials and troops gathered around the Beijing Division, but none of the troops dared to take the initiative to face the battle, which completely made Fan Enlu die, and the army of Tartar Land is going south along the canal, Cangzhou must be the place to attack, which makes Fan Enlu already desperate.

There were also thousands of soldiers and horses stationed around Cangzhou City, but the Tartar army was about to come, this army deserted every day, and countless people fled, and when the matter came, the general who led the troops directly said that he wanted to lead the troops to the guard of King Qin, and simply led the army to run towards the Beijing Division, and directly left the officials and people in Cangzhou City.

Most of the wealthy gentry in Cangzhou and the local gentry have nowhere to run, and the family business people are all in this Cangzhou territory, so they have to organize the people to be strong and make a last stand.

Who would have thought that the Tartars did not attack Cangzhou, but directly accelerated their advance towards the south, and the officials and people in Cangzhou City breathed a sigh of relief, but Fan Enlu understood very well, the Tartars' soldiers and horses did not fight this time, and they would attack the city when they ran back, and this city was inevitably destroyed after all.

Fan Enlu no longer has any hope, he has already begun to pack up, settle his family, and prepare to go to Huguang, Henan to join King Li Zicheng, to see if he can make a rich career over there, Fan Enlu never expected that after a few days of hard work, suddenly came the news of the annihilation of the Tartar soldiers and horses, Fan Enlu who heard the news has not been recalled for a long time, compared with the two, the Ming official army of Beizhili and the Shandong official army that he has always scoffed at. and the entire army of Tartar soldiers and horses, Fan Enlu suddenly understood where he should go.

In line with the idea of taking care of his own children, Cangzhou Zhizhou did not plan to let Fan Enlu follow him, but Fan Enlu, who was already tempted, took the initiative to accompany Lord Zhizhou to the labor army in Dongguang County. I also wanted to take the opportunity to observe the situation.

Seeing that Jingguan, some people feel nostalgic, some people are frightened, and some people are uncomfortable, but this Fan Enlu is amazed, and even walked over to take a look, in this era, the appearance of the Jurchens, Mongols and Han people is not small. can still see the difference, Fan Enlu is sure of one point, this is not a good killing, this is a real record, the combat effectiveness of this Shandong soldiers and horses is indeed amazing.

Walk into the camp. Everything was in order, and the soldiers in the army were all highly disciplined, which made Fan Enlu's evaluation another level higher and continued to move forward. Fan Enlu could hear someone in the barracks on both sides of the road talking loudly, and he could hear it clearly.

is summing up the gains and losses of this battle, probably saying that Fan Enlu didn't understand what he was saying, "Between the infantry phalanx, each battalion has its own system, and there must be a gap between each other." Let the firecrackers rely on the barrier of the spear phalanx and attack the ...... in a loop", this kind of summary made Fan Enlu's heart awe-inspiring, he had never heard of an army like this, self-summary, self-correction, this is so that this army will not make the mistakes made in the past, and will naturally grow step by step. Stronger and stronger.

Although Li Meng, the commander-in-chief of Shandong, is a military general of Yipin. And with such a strong army in his hands, he didn't make them wait for long. There is no general's shelf, but he takes the initiative to greet him.

Fan Enlu was taken aback after seeing this Li Meng, he didn't expect this general to be so young, although he had an awe-inspiring and majestic military general temperament, but with a kind smile on his face, facing everyone, he first hugged his fists and said:

"The army is out on the march, there are always a lot of inconveniences, your parents, officials and villagers lead the team to work hard, it's really a charcoal in the snow, this commander treats the whole army, thank you here in advance!!"

Seeing this performance, Fan Enlu was stunned, and then made up his mind in his heart, don't go to the side of King Chuang, his previous thoughts are too ridiculous, and he is willing to seek the near and far, this Zhendong General and Shandong General Army are the best choice, to defect to this person, naturally the future is immeasurable.

The local officials and squires did not have the leisure to observe all the way by Fan Enlu, they were completely subdued by the military deterrence of this army, and the closer they got to this military tent, the more they trembled, thinking that the soldiers and horses below were so strong, and Li Meng, the chief military officer who led them, could not be like a god.

No one expected that Li Meng, the general of Zhendong, would actually come out of the camp first, and thank him kindly, which is a big face.

Everyone forgot their reaction for a while, looked at each other, the scene was so quiet, Li Meng was stunned for a moment, and then he figured out the truth, and couldn't help laughing twice, this laugh shocked these people to wake up, everyone was there looking at the front of Cangzhou Zhizhou, since he is the highest, then ask him to come and take an idea, set an example, everyone just do it.

Li Meng's performance just now, he felt that it was kind, but I don't know why, but the officials and people of Hejian Mansion who came over felt that Li Meng's might and murderous aura was even more powerful.

In a short moment, the cold sweat on the face of the Cangzhou Zhizhou was dripping, but this hesitation was not long, and now he couldn't take care of any nobles and martial arts, this Cangzhou Zhizhou, his hands were arched high, his knees were weak, and he knelt directly on the ground, and said respectfully:

"Zhang Haiyun, the governor of Cangzhou, Hejian Prefecture, saw the general, and congratulated the general on his victory in Beizhili, and in the future, the prince Wandai, and the Quartet!"

The people in the back didn't think much about it, they were already nervous, someone in front took the lead in shouting, and the people in the back just followed up and shouted, the civil officials and squires with heads and faces all knelt on their knees and bowed, repeating Zhang Haiyun's congratulatory message:

"I wish the general a great victory in Beizhili, and the future prince Wandai, Buwu Quartet ......"

Many people came back to their senses after shouting, Li Meng is just a miscellaneous general, the general soldier of a province, how to call the soldiers and horses under them, and what to call the commander is a common practice in the army. Outsiders are already raising the title of handing over a general, how can a big word be added in front of this general.

As soon as Ming came, except for the two generations of Taizu and Chengzu, one was the instability of the country, the other was to seize the throne and conquer, and the following generals had a very high status, so there were those who were called generals, but after that. There has never been such a thing again, and there is only one person who has been called a great general in the last 150 years, and that is "the governor of the military affairs of the mighty general and the chief military officer", but this person's general title is self-appointed, and the civil and military officials have never recognized it. This is the Emperor Zhengde of Ming Wuzong in the Middle Ming Dynasty.

Since it was used by the emperor, after Ming Wuzong Zhengde, no one dared to use this number except for the emperor. Whoever uses this title will be overstepping, even if the emperor seals this title, the civil and military officials below will attack, and this disrespectful crime can't escape.

On their knees on the ground, these people were scolding. I thought that you are willing to send this high hat, you can send it yourself, don't drag everyone to death. But after shouting, what else can I do? It depends on how Li Meng reacted above, it is said that if he is a loyal courtier, then he must resist with all his might, if he is a careerist, I am afraid that the expression of rejection will be more intense, this Li Meng can run Shandong and Shandong soldiers and horses out of such a big situation, it must not be a simple role.

Time. The people below were calm, all waiting for Li Meng's reaction, who would have thought that Li Meng above said with a smile:

"This is all Li's duty, this is a national war, as a national general, it should be like this, everyone praises it!"

These words are not leaky, and there is no denial of the title of the general. And look at the tone later. It's a wholesome acceptance.

This Shandong's Li Meng really has ambitions, and the first reaction of these civil officials and gentry in Hejian Mansion is this. But random is to look back, this kind of tyrannical force, isn't it normal to have ambition, if there is such power, but there is no ambition, then it is a great saint.

Yue Fei, the general in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, was such a saint, but in the end, he could only kneel in the Fengbo Pavilion and shout "Zhaozhao every day".

The civil officials and squires who wanted to understand this were relieved, since this Li Meng had such an attitude, then everyone could also clearly stand in line and express their position, which is different from Fan Enlu's choices, in fact, most of these magistrates who are officials in various places in Beizhili are also from local big families, or they are the spokesmen of these big families, not to mention those wealthy gentry who are originally Hejian Mansion.

In the troubled times, the continuation of the survival of the big family needs to be chosen very carefully, joining which side and not joining the other party, the wrong choice is the tragedy of the death of the family and the destruction of the family.

Or a long bet, but in this world, as a Han clan with status and dignity, it is really unacceptable for them to choose Li Chuang, the place where the exiles are born, and Li Chuang's attitude towards the wealthy family has not changed yet, and the two sides are on the same footing, how can they accept it.

As for the Tartar outside the gate, it is like a beast, the rules of the ancestors, and the blood of the Han family are still on the body, and when you join the Tartar, the hat of the traitor under your hand will be buttoned on your head.

Emperor Chongzhen of Jingshi is now in power for fifteen years, and everyone has long understood what kind of goods this "diligent and upright" emperor is, as well as what kind of goods the so-called famous ministers around him are.

Not to mention those who are afraid of the enemy like a tiger and hide in the name of King Qin, the various armies of Beizhili around the Beijing Division, looking at the world, there is no one to count on, a force that can take refuge, and the only thing left is despair.

However, at this time, General Zhendong and Shandong General Li Meng appeared in their field of vision, a strong, self-disciplined, and ambitious warlord!

"Dashuai, the officials and gentry of Hejian Mansion who came here today, when they were leaving, these officials all handed the lowly letter in private, asking the lowly to be handed over to the Dashuai."

Yuan Wenhong had a thick stack in his hand, with these people, Ding Zhuang, and the supplies sent from Hejian Mansion, Li Meng decided to postpone it for a day, and began to turn back to Shandong on the eighth day of the lunar month, don't underestimate the time of this day, the soldiers' energy and physical strength will be restored to a considerable extent.

It is enough to have the title of "great general" during the day, but when it comes to the place to eat, everyone is cringe. Where to say something about Fengyue and singing praises of virtue, there are many people, even if you want to stand in line, you have to consider whether these people around you will tell the truth, and if there is anything to do, do it in private.

This is why Yuan Wenhong's subordinates hold so many letters, this is a particular thing, if there is a newcomer in the green forest cottage who wants to go up the mountain, he will always have to do a case. Kill a passer-by, and call it a vote.

The civil official's refuge was to hand over a letter to show that there had been communication, and it was written that some so-and-so was willing to take refuge and be allegiance.

If the person who took refuge in this kind of petition fails, it is also a great sin for these letters to be found out, if it is the situation in the past. These meritorious civil officials are just making a gesture and saying hello, but these civil officials, who have always been careful about doing things, are so ignorant this time, and they are begging to come up in vain. It's all because the situation is different.

Li Chuang and Cao Cao in the hinterland of the Central Plains didn't talk about him, and the army of the Tartars came as they said they would, and they walked as soon as they said they would, and they were like entering a no-man's land in Beizhili. It really shocked a group of people.

The source of the emperor's authority, on the one hand, is the inheritance of the ancestors, and on the other hand, it is to maintain the existence of the country, to protect the subjects of other places from the invasion of foreign barbarians, to live in peace and joy, or to survive, which is the bottom line of the king's power and the existence of the country.

Now this Tartar army has entered the army five times, if it were not for this birthplace Zhendong general, Shandong general Li Meng led the soldiers and horses to defeat the Tartar army. To put it bluntly, this seems to be a miracle, who would have believed that there would be such an outcome before this battle was fought.

To be honest, before this battle, many people thought that the Ming Dynasty was afraid that the country would be destroyed, and the Tartar soldiers and horses were coming and going so vertically and horizontally, and it was easy to attack the Jingshi, so many times to enter and resist. It has made people thoroughly realize what kind of goods the Ming soldiers and horses around this Beijing division are.

Since the Manchu soldiers and horses outside the pass can attack the Beijing division so easily. So what it means to be able to easily destroy this Shandong army of Tartar soldiers and horses is self-evident.

Da Ming has completely lost confidence. The Shandong soldiers and horses that happened to appear in front of him were the best choice, and Dafan's betrayal of himself was all about paying attention to a sooner rather than too late, such a hot stove, if it is not burned now, will it be burned again when others come to burn?

Now these civil officials in Hejian Prefecture have been beating their chests secretly, thinking that there is such a force around them, but they are like turtles shrinking to the present, not knowing anything, and only coming forward to curry favor when the matter is approaching, this is a big taboo in the officialdom, and it is really ashamed to be an official for so many years to make such a low-level mistake.

So this first time we met, I handed over the letter and the document of allegiance to the Jiaozhou battalion, which seemed to be an imbecile act of selling the handle to the other party, but in fact it was a complete expression of loyalty, which means that my handle is given to you Shandong soldiers and horses, then we must be one heart.

Of course, this move seems to outsiders to be extremely clever, but everyone in these officials from Hejian Province knows to do this, which shows that it is common sense in officialdom.

Li Meng has been an old oilman in officialdom since he started to inspect the salt administration, although he doesn't know much about such intrigues, he can roughly understand the mystery.

Yuan Wenhong handed Li Meng a stack of letterheads, Li Meng opened the first letter on it, and after reading the contents, the rest of the letters were all official, so there was no need to open them and read them again, the contents of the letterheads were the same.

Li Meng smiled, casually threw a stack of letterheads on the bookcase on the side, and said with a smile:

"Go back to find Zhou Tongzhi to arrange, anyone who writes to us will send someone to send some return gifts, and at the same time let Lingshan Commercial Bank send someone to open a semicolon, Hejian Mansion is next to us, and it is no harm to be close to us."

Yuan Wenhong smiled and nodded in agreement, took the pen on the side and recorded it quickly, did not look up, groaned slightly, and said again:

"My lord, of the sixty squires from Hejian Prefecture who came today, fifteen of them said that Shandong had a better climate than Beizhili, and they were willing to send some of their family members to settle down, and the remaining forty-five said that they were stubborn and were willing to send them to Shandong to join the army, and let the Jiaozhou battalion help discipline them."

Speaking of this, Yuan Wenhong raised his head. In a rather serious tone, he said:

"These sixty squires sent a total of three hundred taels of gold, six thousand taels of silver, and two times as many IOUs, all of which were sent to the Quartermaster Department, and were guarded and approved by a special person."

The matter of gold and silver is the most difficult to explain, but Yuan Wenhong came forward to receive these civil officials and squires on behalf of these civil officials and squires, and received these things. Naturally, you must calculate it clearly and seriously, and go through the procedures and hand it over, so as not to be criticized and cause too much trouble to yourself.

Regarding Yuan Wenhong's seriousness, Li Meng just smiled and said that he didn't take it to heart, of course, those people gave Yuan Wenhong gold and silver. He already knew it in his heart, and he knew it very well.

This IOU is the wisdom of the people, the IOU says how much silver taels someone owes to the Jiaozhou battalion, and the Jiaozhou battalion must not have lent them real money, but they are sure that there is a lot of real money and silver to pay back. The reason is that I didn't bring enough silver taels this time, and I made an IOU to supplement it.

The wealthy squires of Hejian Mansion have to do a lot more things than those civil officials, and they directly send gold and silver materials as gifts. Then they sent their dependents over as hostages.

Sending money, sending hostages, there is no more real expression than this, their loyalty will naturally be more believed, Li Meng groaned, opened his mouth and ordered:

"These people's affairs should be done quickly, and their families will be arranged to go to Ye County or Pingdu Prefecture to treat them well. Those children were assigned to the armed salt ding of Jinan Prefecture and were treated according to the usual practice. ”

There are many personnel in the Jiaozhou battalion who are working outside, and to maintain the loyalty of these people, in addition to cultivating loyalty and a sense of belonging to this system, is to leave their local families in Shandong, which is the most reliable, and Li Meng's arrangement is also the usual rule of the Jiaozhou battalion, but Li Meng slapped twice. He added again:

"Cangzhou's Changlu Salt Farm must be taken as soon as possible. Promise them the officials and wealthy families in Cangzhou to benefit from three percent, if they are greedy. Forty percent can also control the private salt from this salt field in our own hands as soon as possible, so as not to conflict with each other, but it is not beautiful! ”

The two largest salt farms in the world, one is two Huai, and the other is this Changlu, but the Changlu salt field has been relatively withered because of the repeated Tartar captives in Beizhili over the years, which has caused great damage to production and sales, but Li Meng knows that because of his own existence, this Beizhili is estimated to be too peaceful for a long time, and the business of Changlu Salt Farm may also prosper.

And in the rapid turn of the army, from the south of Zhili back to Shandong, originally posted very close to the two Huai Hao merchants are silent, only the second of the Fang family rode a fast horse on the way to catch up with the army, first wished the army to go to the north Zhili banner to win, and then mentioned a thing, said that if the army wins, but also to catch the Changlu salt field in the hand, so as not to trouble in the future.

Now that the army has entered Hejian Mansion, naturally there is no reason to let go of this salt field.

Here Yuan Wenhong wrote it down again, and the master of the Jiaozhou battalion recorded it while admiring in his heart, the marshal is really a last resort, and it seems that this military expenditure is at least not a loss.

The state and county civil officials of Hejian Prefecture and the local gentry and clans have all made a disposition, but Yuan Wenhong opened his mouth and said:

"Dashuai, the officials and gentry who came to the labor army today are all going to Dongguang County to rest, but a master from Cangzhou Zhizhou stayed, saying that he wanted to defect to Dashuai, and asked Dashuai to arrange a place for him."

Hearing the news, Li Meng's first reaction was to frown, so he came to defect, and he was also the master of an official, no one was at ease, Li Meng only felt that something was wrong, and Huang Ping, who followed the Shandong Salt Gang in the army, judged that this master was directly a spy and wanted to come in to find out the news.

Seeing that Li Meng's expression was a little wrong, Yuan Wenhong hesitated for a moment before he spoke:

"Dashuai, I also feel that there are some problems, so I opened my mouth to ask, and the master said that the building is about to collapse now, and he wants to do something, so he wants to find a place to live in our Shandong...... That, handsome, this master is Chinese New Year's Eve three years old today, and he has a reputation for raising people......"

Yuan Wenhong said a lot of words, but his meaning was expressed, he felt that this person was a talent, and hoped that the Jiaozhou battalion could be used, at this time, Li Meng had already laughed, stood up from his seat and said with a smile:

"Mr. Yuan, do you know that when Zhou Tongzhi and Ben Shuai met for the first time, they also said the same, it is rare to have a meritorious person, and he wants to do things like this, let his whole family move here, find a Tuntian Grange to do the book office first!"

In the Tuntian Grange, which is completely closed, and it is a cumbersome civil and agricultural work, even if it is really colluded with the outside, there is no channel and meaning, and in the same way, it can test a person more to do it in this kind of position that seems to be hard work and has no future.

"What's this man's name?"

"Hui Dashuai, Fan Enlu, Cangzhou people......"

The so-called prosperous weather, all the people come to vote, this Fan Enlu is just the beginning.
