Chapter 51 Jinzhou Line 1
After receiving Zu Dashou's reply, Zhu Qing was overjoyed and was so excited that he couldn't sleep well all night. Early the next morning, Zhu Qing led Lin Bai and more than a dozen Jinyi guards out of Shanhaiguan and headed for Jinzhou. Go buy a horse with Zu Dashou.
In a good mood and full of energy, it didn't take two hours for Zhu Qing and others to enter Jinzhou City. Compared with the devastation of the previous days, Jinzhou is slowly recovering.
Hearing that Zhu Qing had arrived, Zu Dashou led the soldiers out of the city to greet him.
"Qinglong, it's so early, it seems that you are in a hurry, hahaha." When he saw Zhu Qing from afar, Zu Dashou shouted.
Qinglong didn't dare to slack off, and also laughed and strode forward, "General Zu takes care of Qinglong so much, how dare Qinglong slack off, isn't this?" Early in the morning. ”
"Sangui, come and say hello to Qinglong. He's the savior of General Ben. Zu Dashou said, turned around and said to Wu Sangui who was hiding behind him.
Wu Sangui is not afraid of Zhu Qing, he doesn't want to see Zhu Qing, but at this time, the old man has named him, and he can't say it if he doesn't show up again. So Wu Sangui stood up from the crowd, glanced at Zhu Qing with slanted eyes, and sneered, "General Qinglong, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come here unharmed." ”
"Oh, it turns out that Wu Dashuai is also here, what did you say? Qinglong is just guarding a small pass of mountains and seas under the emperor's order, how can it compare to the tens of thousands of troops commanded by Marshal Wu. Besides, Qinglong can have today, thanks to your care Wu Dashuai. Seeing that Wu Sangui's words were thorny, Zhu Qing still treated him politely, but there was no lack of military spirit in this ceremony.
"Okay, they are all elites of the Ming Dynasty, why bother to divide them so clearly. Qinglong, I didn't have any war horses, and the last time I gave you four hundred, the rest of me was just enough. If it weren't for the fact that my son-in-law took the blame for Jing yesterday and delivered it to the door, I'm afraid I wouldn't have called you here. Zu Dashou said.
"In this way, Zhu Qing wants to thank Wu Dashuai." Zhu Qing smiled slightly, and glanced at Lin Bai, Lin Bai immediately greeted, and the two brocade guards carried a box to Wu Sangui.
Seeing this huge box, everyone thought that it must be full of wealth. Zu Dashou smiled slightly, "Qinglong is polite. Although you buy a horse, you don't have to be so serious, and besides, you have just arrived at Shanhaiguan, don't blame General Ben for saying bluntly, this foundation is important. ”
"You're welcome, it's true that as the general said, the foundation of Shanhaiguan is not enough, so it's just the meaning in this box. I hope the general will laugh at it. Zhu Qing said, glanced at Lin Bai, and the two smiled slightly.
"Well said. Since I called you here, I can't let you go back empty-handed. Sangui, give Qinglong some horses. Zu Dashou said to Wu Sangui.
"Yes, father-in-law." Wu Sangui made a gesture to Zu Dashou, and then waved his hand to Hu Wei and asked Hu Wei to do it.
"Why don't you go to the mansion and sit down? Have a good drink? Zu Dashou said politely.
"The general doesn't have to be polite. Presumably, the military army is busier than Qinglong. You can take the time to meet Qinglong and a few of my brothers, Qinglong is already grateful. Let's drink alcohol another day. If the general has no opinion, Qinglong wants to take a good walk with the brothers in this Jinzhou City, and the brothers have not entered the city for a long time. Zhu Qing said to Zu Dashou that he knew that since Zu Dashou felt that the city gate was coming to greet him, it was inconvenient to go to his mansion, and besides, Zhu Qing really wanted to see this Jinzhou City.
"It's okay, the general is not strong, but you only have half an hour, and after half an hour, General Hu Wei will prepare three hundred horses to bring to the city gate, and then you must come to claim them in time, you also know that it is not convenient for so many horses to appear at this city gate at once." Zu Dashou admonished.
"Qinglong understands." Zhu Qing said and made a gesture to Zu Dashou.
Zu Dashou nodded, and motioned to his subordinates to carry back the big box that Zhu Qing had sent. Zhu Qing and more than a dozen brothers went to Jinzhou City for a stroll.
Before leaving, Zhu Qing muttered something in Lin Bai's ear, Lin Bai nodded, and led the people away.
Zhu Qing first looked around the city wall, he wanted to see what structure this military fortress relied on to support the glory of the past, and how could it be so vulnerable now?
He found that the soil of the collapsed walls was somewhat loose and relatively humid. And there are moats built outside these places. If I am not mistaken, the last time Jinzhou was attacked, the enemy could easily pass through the moat and go straight to the city wall with a little care, and many soldiers and horses turned into the dark ditch. Zhu Qing was thoughtful.
He walked into the bazaar, walked into a teahouse, asked for a pot of tea, and walked by the window while drinking tea and looking around. Suddenly he heard someone talking about something, and he wanted to hear it, but it was too far away. When Xiao Er came over to pour tea, Zhu Qing unintentionally asked, "Brother, the store is so lively, what are you talking about?" ”
"Oh? You're from out of town, aren't you? Everyone is talking about the Jinzhou city defense, and I heard that the capital has allocated a sum of money to repair the city defense. But there has been no major movement in the past few years, and it is just tinkering. This is not? I was besieged by the Tartars a few days ago and almost broke. Ay. The shopkeeper said, shook his head and turned to leave.
After Zhu Qing heard this, he blew hot tea and finally took a sip, at this time, Lin Bai and a few brocade guards came in, this should be the place they had made an appointment, Lin Bai entered the teahouse and walked straight to Zhu Qing.
"Big brother." Lin Bai screamed softly.
Zhu Qing motioned for him to pay attention to the people around him, and then asked, "How is it?" ”
"The brothers found him in a tavern." Lin Bai said.
"Hmph, a Taoist priest, drinking in a tavern." Zhu Qing sneered.
"Do you want your subordinates to bring a few brothers to do him?" Lin Bai asked, his eyes full of murderous aura.
Zhu Qing stretched out his hand to suppress the excited Lin Bai, "Don't startle the snake." Call a few brothers to follow first. Our main task this time is still the three hundred war horses. Don't delay business. ”
"Understood." Lin Bai nodded. Then he walked out of the teahouse with those brocade guards.
Unexpectedly, I just walked to the door. was bumped into by a man who fled in a hurry, chased by a dozen men in black behind him. Look at the appearance of those people in black, they are all dressed in black, covered with black masks, and wearing hats, not like the Central Plains, nor like the Manchurians. But looking at that action, it should be a person who practices martial arts, and his skills should not be weak.
The person who was being chased was not an idle person, and when he entered the teahouse, he saw that he stepped on the table and chair, jumped up, hooked the beam, a barb, and quickly climbed the beam.
In the teahouse, Zhu Qing's current location was the most secluded, so the man quietly rushed towards the beam on Zhu Qing's head.
Zhu Qing felt something fall into the teacup, and quietly looked up.
"Shh The man hurriedly shushed Zhu Qing and motioned for him to keep quiet.
This is terrible, the two of them looked at each other for a while, and they almost screamed, if Zhu Qing remembered correctly, that person was the big thief who gave the government a headache! On Lord Tian's boat before, he fought with Zhu Qing. was almost caught by Zhu Qing.
"Yaga! Search for me! The black-clothed men wearing hats rushed into the teahouse, but they couldn't find the time to change the game, and they were furious, and the leader shouted.
My goodness! Wakako!
Hearing this, the people in the teahouse trembled with fright.
It's not good now, when did the Japanese become so lawless in Jinzhou City?! Zhu Qing was unhappy when he thought about it. He gestured to Lin Bai at the door. Lin Bai and the others nodded, and glanced at a brocade guard, who went out to check and whistled. It didn't take a moment for the teahouse to be surrounded by the Jinyi Guards, of course, ordinary people couldn't see that the teahouse was surrounded.
"There is no drop upstairs"
"There are no drips in the kitchen"
"None ......"
The Japanese searched the teahouse all over the place, but they all said no. The one who was the leader turned around, and finally his eyes fell on Zhu Qing. He sneered. With a wave of his hand, more than a dozen would-be robbers followed him and walked towards Zhu Qing with long knives.
Zhu Qing picked up the teapot, threw it at the window, and smashed the half-open window, "Hurry up!" Zhu Qing shouted to the game on the beam.
During the game, he jumped and broke out of the window.
"Kill me!" Seeing that someone was saving Shi Qian, the would-be one led by him roared angrily, raised his knife and slashed at Zhu Qing, and more than a dozen would-be robbers behind him also rushed up.
Zhu Qing picked up the teacup, and with a wave of his wrist, a cup of hot tea was spilled on the wolf. This tea is not only hot, but also sandwiched Zhu Qing's strength, this time, stunned to scare more than a dozen widows back a few steps. It was these few steps that Zhu Qing had time to pull out the box that was placed beside him, the Ming Fourteen Style!
