Hong Wenjie listened to Gao Shen's chatter and said with a smile: "Then take care." When your cub grows up, Lao Tzu will personally ask him to play with the sword! ”

"Hmm!" Gao Shen shook his head and waved his hand, looking reluctant, "The Overseer can spare him." We have suffered all our lives, but we can't let the cub suffer anymore, I'm willing to let him plant land at home, the military salary for more than ten years is enough to buy a few acres of thin land. Alas, there will be wars and dead people again. ”

After Gao Shen retreated, Hong Wenjie narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Now you understand, why does the imperial court allocate funds every year, and the military system is still so poor, right?" ”

Lin Lan nodded and said, "In the end, there are still too many soldiers. ”

The Dajing Dynasty raised 200,000 troops, and the annual military salary, grain and grass, that is an astronomical amount, not counting all kinds of city defenses, equipment damage, etc., the loyalty of the Xining soldiers is enough for Wu Zhongping to uniformly allocate military salaries and maintain enough combat power to deal with the war, but the Northwest Army is a different look. Although it is located in the Yumen Pass, the annual military salary is paid to each soldier in full to avoid mutiny. This led to different uses of everyone's military salary, some drank flowers and wine, some saved money to marry and have children like Gao Shen, and some ate, drank, prostituted and gambled.

Most of the business in the inner city is based on this.

Hong Wenjie let out a long sigh and said, "That's why I don't agree to send troops to pursue." The Northwest Army can't stand the toss. If you want to make a contribution, go and work with Wu Zhongping. He is bold, and he has wolves under his command. ”

50,000 troops, 30,000 elite soldiers, in fact, the gap is still very obvious. These 50,000 troops can hold the Yumen Pass, but they can't stop the gun-to-gun and spear-to-spear hard fighting.

Ruan Ciwen let out a long sigh and said, "If I was here back then, why wouldn't the Northwest Army be able to train a group of wolves?" ”

"Heh, I, Hong someone, naturally don't have the level of the horse master's management of soldiers, but I also understand that wolves can't be kept in captivity after all, and if you're not careful, you may bite yourself, so it's enough for Wu Zhongping to have Wu Zhongping in the Dajing Dynasty, and one more Ruan Ciwen will be the death of the country."

Ruan Ciwen glanced at it and sneered: "It's nonsense. ”

"Report!"

Hong Wenjie turned his head sideways and saw the herald running in a hurry, so he said, "But the Western Three Clans are attacking the city?" ”

The herald soldier shook his head and said, "Governor Army, a team of reinforcements has come, saying that it is Lin Qincha's personal guard." ”

"Mine?" Lin Lan frowned, he didn't let people send reinforcements over, why did he suddenly have an extra team of reinforcements for some reason?

The herald creep nodded and said, "Yes, please give the Overseer an order." ”

Hong Wenjie saw that Lin Lan also looked confused, so he asked, "How many people came?" ”

"About a thousand people."

"Is there a clearance paperwork?"

The herald soldier shook his head and said, "No, but the leader said that they only listened to Lin Qincha's orders. ”

"Uncle Hong, let's go and have a look, don't have any conflicts later."

Hong Wenjie nodded, got on the horse and said, "Then hurry up." ”

……

……

Several people rode back to the inner city, Ruan Ciwen glanced at Lin Lan and said with a smile: "A thousand people, how did you pull it up?" ”

"I don't know, do you believe it?"

Ruan Ciwen said with a smile: "You can always make a big move." ”

The inner city was closed, Lin Lan and the others arrived on horseback, and when they saw the leader, Lin Lan was stunned, and hurriedly asked Hong Wenjie to put down the suspension bridge.

Lin Lan rushed over with some surprise.

Seeing that it was Lin Lan who came out, the young man who looked like he had grown a lot in the lead had his eyes lit up and shouted, "Young Master! ”

This young master is still the same as it was back then. I don't care what kind of dignity Lin Lan is. Yun Xiaofan only knew that it was the one who saved his life in the cold winter wax moon.

"Xiaofan, why are you here?"

"I'm a big surprise for you."

Lin Lan saw the thousand teenagers riding horses behind Yun Xiaofan and carrying long leather bags behind them, so he asked, "Are these people ......?"

Yun Xiaofan made a move.

A thousand people instantly heard the sound of the mountain shouting and tsunami of greeting.

"Hello host!"

Yun Xiaofan said: "These are street children. Young master, I will take care of the property you purchased in Jinling, and I have made thousands of guns. There is a lot of silver, the field is big, and naturally people are needed, and the good sons and daughters of the whole Jinling have gathered for me. No, a few days ago, an old king and eight lambs came to the imperial court, saying that you had made a marquis, and the property of Jinling was going to be confiscated. ”

Lin Lan was so angry that she jumped to her feet and scolded her mother: "Which dog, the day is so bold!" ”

"I heard that it is a man surnamed Wang."

"Wang Yan's old thief?"

Yun Xiaofan nodded and said: "Such a big industry, just accept it, fortunately, I am smart, I have already left you a way back, except for a few sample guns to the old king's eight lambs, even guns and horses, as well as silver and bullets, all brought to you." These brothers are under your care on a daily basis and come with you voluntarily. ”

"Good!" Lin Lan was overjoyed, she really wanted to come to something.

Yun Xiaofan showed two rows of big white teeth and said with a smile: "No matter what, you can't keep that old king eight lambs." He may not know that the old Wang Eight Lambs in his mouth are actually Lin Lan's eldest father.

"Will you make a gun?"

Yun Xiaofan nodded and said, "Brothers, the owner asked you, do you know how to shoot birds?" ”

"Don't worry, don't worry about it, you don't dare to say it with one shot, it's no problem to hit the barbarian's brains!"

"As long as I have enough bullets, I can kill a hundred!"

Lin Lan saw that the people brought by Yun Xiaofan swore one by one, and she couldn't close her mouth with joy.

He is destined to work miracles!

The city gate opened, and the group of mercenaries led by Yun Xiaofan was successfully stationed.

Hong Wenjie looked at the mysterious Lin Lan and asked, "A thousand miscellaneous soldiers, it's useless in the war, you better don't lose the soldiers and pay for it yourself." ”

Lin Lan smiled slightly and said, "Inspector Hong, how to defend this city, you can handle it yourself." ”

"Gave up so soon?"

Lin Lan said with a smile: "Give me ten days of food and grass for this thousand miscellaneous soldiers." ”

"What are you going to do?"

"Take the city."

Hong Wenjie was shocked, thinking that there was something wrong with his ears, and stammered: "You...... Are you saying that you will use this thousand miscellaneous troops to capture Dugu City? ”

Lin Lan nodded seriously and said, "That's right. ”

"Are you crazy?" A thousand miscellaneous soldiers, what can they do? Although the firearms of the three tribes in the west are not developed, they have bows and arrows. This broken city, still not shot into a sieve?

Lin Lan smiled and said: "The mountain people have their own clever plans, so the Hong Overseer Army should think about how to hold this Jade Gate Pass and delay the army of the Western Three Clans." ”

"Impossible! If you dare to move Dugu City, the three tribes in the west will immediately divide their troops to help, and you will die a miserable death at that time. ”

The corners of Lin Lan's mouth crossed a slight arc, "I don't know who died miserably." ”
