Chapter 0259: First Arrival in Datong
"Of course... I'm sure!! Zhang Xianzhong hurriedly affirmed, knowing what he was worried about when he saw Gao Yingxiang's appearance, and continued, "If Wang Pu is convinced of the rumors in the outside world, then any of us will go the same, and maybe we will lose our lives, if he will be suspicious, then it is better for me to go......"
Gao Yingxiang pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Then you can go." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"This..."Zhang Xianzhong said hesitantly, "It's better to bring a generous gift..."
"You can withdraw our silver taels at will..."Gao Yingxiang frowned and said.
“... Maybe it's more secure..."Zhang Xianzhong lowered his head and explained, "In this way, even if Wang Pu doesn't believe that we will surrender, he will be greedy and agree, after all, if he doesn't agree, this money is so many people outside the encirclement, with Cao Wenzhao as the leader, Wang Pu can't get much ......"
"So if the number is so big that he is tempted, we will have a chance."
Gao Yingxiang's brows furrowed even tighter, looking at Zhang Xianzhong's sweaty appearance on his forehead, he fixed his body and made up his mind, "That's it, gather all the leaders, do as you say!" ”
According to what Zhang Xianzhong said, it is natural to collect the remaining money in the hands of the leaders.
"Big brother is wise..."Zhang Xianzhong lowered his head, and a trace of indelible light flashed in his eyes.
............
"Retreat...... Hong Chengchou shouted, still scolding as he returned to his horse, "He. . . Damn, it's frustrating. ”
It was another small defeat, and Mizhi County was controlled by the other party. The anti-thieves in Shaanxi are basically gone, except for the unknown team that is not very numerous.
That's right, it is the team that has suffered a loss after several battles with him, and he definitely does not admit that it is a thief, because he Hong Chengchou is the nemesis of Hades in the eyes of the thief, and he himself firmly believes it.
So the team in front of you is definitely not an anti-thief, have you ever seen an anti-thief discipline that is stricter than that of officers and soldiers? And the other party is still on the defensive, so he has no choice but to retreat, and he still cares a lot about his own soldiers, which is his foundation.
As the governor of the three sides, the territory is in Ningxia, Gansu and Yansui, speaking of which there is a solid plain before, and the nine-sided towns occupy four, which can be said to be the most powerful position in the Ming Dynasty, and he can be regarded as seeing the situation in the court clearly, as long as Emperor Chongzhen has no opinion on him, those people in the court are absolutely decorations, and it can be said that one person is above ten thousand people.
But now......
Ningxia is almost out of touch, his own people can't enter, and even the governor of Ningxia sent by the emperor is strictly controlled.......
The emperor is very angry, how is it? The responsibility can only be his Hong Chengchou! It can't be the emperor's fault.
Gansu is even worse, it has fallen into the hands of the thieves, and he can't take it back, and the people in his own territory have also moved to Gansu one after another, with unreliable news, and they are living quite well there......
The rest is just Yansui, I thought it was absolutely fine, because Chen Qiyu, the governor of Yansui, was his old partner, and he knew the ability, but he didn't expect it... Still something went wrong.
Jia County, Mizhi County, has been successively attacked by a certain anti-thief... Occupied by unknown teams, these are all small towns, it doesn't matter, but if you look back, you will find that these places are extremely close to Yansui, or rather, Yansui has been surrounded from the outside......
Hong Chengchou was really panicked, cold sweat broke out, if it was really like what he thought, it would be a big sin to take his own guilt, and he had done so much territory under his nose, it would not be too much to cut down all the doors......
Thinking about all this, he had to report all this to Chongzhen in detail, plus his own opinions, he felt that there seemed to be a pair of big hands controlling everything in the dark.
Who is it? Who is it? ......
............
The Datong Governor has been replaced again, and the reason why it is said to be another word is because the governor before Ning Daguan took office only served for three days.
Ning Zhiyuan still remembered that in the second year of Chongzhen, he passed by the governor of the same time, Xu Guangqi's apprentice, and there was no contact.
When they arrived in Datong, the chief soldiers and others all came out to greet them, after all, in the rumors, this Lord Ning was a powerful person, which also made Ning Daguan sigh more, although it was the norm, but why should he be so polite, how could he be embarrassed to raid his house?
But no matter how embarrassed you are, you still have to raid your home, otherwise this battle will not be fought, and it is a practice in wartime.
In fact, for these general soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, Ning Daguan is not good, or is influenced by hereditary military households, most of them are just from their grandfather's shadow, they may be able to fight, but they really lack the courage to fight.
At the reception banquet, Ning Daguan looked at the name of the general soldier of Datong when he sat down, and his ancestors were the original chief soldiers of Shanhaiguan, and then he got to this point with the qualifications he had mixed for many years, and his beard was a bit of a fierce general, and he also noticed that the current deputy general of Datong was named Jiang Xuan.
Speaking of this Jiang Jiu, Ning Daguan took a closer look, but he couldn't say anything about this person having backbones, dragging him out and beheading him, but this person is really not a thing.
Soon after, he will be promoted to the general army of Datong, with the emperor's grace and the heavy army of Datong, but he surrendered without a fight against Li Zicheng, no, it should be said that Li Zicheng surrendered before he fought, according to those experts and professors in later generations, Li Zicheng did not think about moving forward after he hit Wu'an, and the biggest obstacle ahead was open for him...... Speaking of which, a large part of Chongzhen's hanging was angered by Jiang Xuan.
This is not the end, less than half a year after surrendering Li Zicheng, the Qing troops entered the customs, and saw that Li Zicheng's situation was not good, but he hurriedly killed Li Zicheng's subordinate Zhang Tianlin to surrender to the Qing, Datong fell, and he deserved to be infamous through the ages, and even his soldiers looked down on him later.
Speaking of this, it can only be said that he is shameless, but the killing of Zhang Tianlin is even more outrageous......
Such talents... Make good friends. Ning Daguan squinted his eyes and thought that it would be of great use in the future.
............
After getting to know these officials in general, Ning Daguan took office like this.
For a few days, what he did was very simple, every day he just trained and trained.
This approach made a large group of people very relieved, after all, this Ning Daguan is not easy to mess with, so he can only be careful in his heart, and he can't let the other party kill him as a chicken for those monkeys to see......
They were relieved, but someone was unhappy.
Datong is one of the important towns on the nine sides, and it is an extremely important place in several towns, under the jurisdiction of 19 roads, nearly 100 guards, even if there are a large number of empty rings, the number of people is above 50,000, in the training school of Nuo University, only Ning Zhiyuan's 4,000 soldiers and horses have meat every day at noon, and there are two meals of porridge in the morning and evening, so the rest of the soldiers are really unhappy, they are all soldiers, how can there be this difference? But more can only be envied.
"Who are you?" In the tent, the senior officials of Ning looked at the more than 20 people standing below, and they had a rough idea in their hearts.
Ning Zhiyuan was sitting in the middle of the tent, Kou Baimen was sitting quietly, not standing like Wang Wu and them, looking at the joke, he was Mrs. Ning, how could he be like these soldiers, Kou Nuxia thought with a proud face.
"My lord, my subordinates are all Datong soldiers...... a man at the head said with some apprehension, why did you bring a woman in the army? This adult is really...
It has been four or five days since the group of soldiers of Ning Daguan joined the school training, and the smell of meat floating at noon every day really made them suffer a lot, as well as the vitality on their faces and the peculiar training methods on their faces during daily training, which really made them unbelievable, but today they really couldn't bear it. "His subordinate Xu Ming is a thousand households under General Du in the army, and they are all hundreds of households."
“.... Oh. Ning Daguan nodded expressionlessly, and glanced at everyone, "You are a thousand households here...?" ”
"Hmm......" Xu Ming replied stunned.
"This official knows why you came," Ning Zhiyuan said slowly, "The four thousand people under this command were recruited by this official from the Daimyo's mansion, so I am only in charge, and this official can tell you that I did not take a tael of silver from Datong." ”
"So you all go back...."
"............" More than 20 people were stunned, and they didn't say anything, they are going back?
"My lord," Xu Ming said.
"Go back," Ning Daguan waved his hand, "This kind of thing should go to your general, not your own official." ”
............
"Baimen, what kind of armor did you say would be better for your husband to customize for you tomorrow?" Ning Daguan fiddled with his hands dishonestly.
“... Yours is good. Kou Baimen gritted his teeth and said.
"That's it, isn't it a little big, but according to the style, it's also very good, we wear the same as husband and wife, it looks like a couple." Ning Zhiyuan laughed.
"It's not big, you don't have to do it again." Kou Baimen said, "I've tried it, you're just dressed, you're not taller than me, just one person." ”
“............”
“... Why hasn't Xu Ming come yet? Ning Zhiyuan muttered.
The corners of Kou Baimen's mouth hooked up a secret smile, telling you to change the topic, forget it, this woman doesn't care about you.
............
The situation in Ningxia has developed very well, whether in the military or economically, with the passage of time, the Bank of Ningxia has changed its name to the Bank of China, and it has gradually taken root in the hearts of the people, and has launched many businesses, including short-term interest-free loans for businessmen and branches in many places, etc., in order to attract businessmen, and not to publicize the prestige of Ningda's officials, and in fact it is also very effective, so that the trust of the businessmen who ushered in Ning Zhiyuan has deepened.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation four points, in addition to living in this aspect of Ningxia did not dabble more, the rest are all famous in the Ming Dynasty, almost all the cloth villages in the Ming Dynasty are controlled on the clothes, silk and wool are extremely popular, sweet potato wine and dried sweet potatoes are also sold all over the world, as for the 'line', Li Dingguo's dart bureau is still expanding, and it also provides tasks that are not limited to escorts.
That is to say, as long as you have money, you can directly hire people from the world's dart bureau to be guards and guards, which is much better than the vast majority of the people they are looking for.
Gansu is now a special place, since the year after the thieves were occupied by the whole line, many landlords and bureaucrats who oppressed the people were beheaded, causing a great sensation, in a certain businessman 'unintentionally' temptation, found that Gansu is also a peaceful place, the commerce in it is almost a vacuum, and the people there are not bad, so for a time there is an influx of many merchants......
And the high-level in Gansu is actually connected with the high-level in Ningxia, which only a few people know, and most of the garrison generals in Gansu are recruited by the old department before Ning Zhiyuan and then recruited in Gansu......
Li Jin is frowning, the business is doing this, if there is no new industry, there will be no big progress, according to today's income, Li Jin's business earns four or five times the annual money of Ningxia's finance, he is very satisfied, now the richest person in the Ming Dynasty should be his husband.
Ning Zhiyuan is now in Datong, Li Jin knows that her heart moved, and then she had an idea, which coincided with Ning Zhiyuan's reply.
A businessman knows that doing business to make money is fundamental, but there is one difference, that is, making war money.
The large amount of food supplies and medicinal materials needed in the war are enough to make all businessmen covet, Li Jin is the same, but it is not too urgent, after all, it is only a local war, and after receiving Ning Zhiyuan's letter that the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, he felt that it was not bad to go to Datong to see the enemy, so he began to order troops and prepare to enter Datong.
............
There were a lot of twists and turns next to the case made by Chongzhen, which made him even more sad for a while.
He began to understand why the ancestors always liked to reuse eunuchs, because only eunuchs would not rebel and could handle things for the emperor, so he also began to give some small things to the eunuchs to deal with.
But what annoys him is often a big thing.
Hong Chengchou's twists and turns made his tightly locked brows never loosen.
The general meaning is that almost all of the three northwestern sides have been completely controlled, and I hope that the emperor will make a decision as soon as possible...
