Chapter 332: Bargaining
Wang Shichong finally understood why this terrible Guanlong military nobleman could form such a powerful force for so many years and control the entire military world, although the demands of each family are not necessarily the same, and not every family dares to directly resist powerful ministers like Yuwen Hu like Dugu Xin and Zhao Gui back then, but everyone is a soldier, there is a blood-stained friendship on the battlefield, and when their companions are killed or even exterminated, there will always be a sense of sadness for the rabbit and the fox.
It is precisely because of this that when Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty Yuwen Yong killed Yuwen Hu, he received the overwhelming support of these Guan Long military nobles, and there was no pressure to clear the Yuwen Hu remnants. In the same way, Yang Jian is also supported by the Guanlong military nobles as a whole, especially the support of families such as the Wei family, the Han family, the Yang family, the Gao family, and the Li family, in order to successfully exterminate the Wei Chi Yuan, who is based in the Guandong region and has the support of many Shandong clans, to dominate the world.
Wang Shichong's eyes rolled, realizing that this was a good opportunity to get more details from the Guanlong Military Meritorious Group, and pretended to sigh: "It turns out that there are so many doorways here, hey, then I, Wang Shichong, want to squeeze into this glorious military group, it seems that there is no drama in this life." ”
Shi Wansui said with a smile: "Wang Yuanwai, don't be pessimistic, your situation is different from others, the veterans are very optimistic about you, and now you are also a member of the Wang family of the general Guanlong, if it weren't for this, this general would not have taken the initiative to come to you today to say this, I really regard you as my own." ”
Wang Shichong nodded gratefully: "Then thank you for the love of General Xie Shi, from now on, wherever there is a place where Wang can be used." Please feel free to speak. Something you can do. It must be done. ”
Shi Wansui pondered for a moment and asked: "But there is something that I haven't understood very well, and I ask the king to tell the truth if it's convenient." ”
Wang Shichong saw that Shi Wansui's expression was so serious, and realized that this question might be very related, so he nodded seriously: "General Shi, please speak clearly." ”
Shi Wansui stared at Wang Shichong motionlessly, with a serious expression: "It is said that General Wang Shiji is related to you, and you are so talented, he should spare no effort to promote you." Wooing you is, but it seems that your relationship with General Wang has always been lukewarm, and he has never spoken for you in the circle of veteran Guan Long, but he has praised your future several times, what is going on? ”
Although Wang Shichong hated Wang Shiji as a villain, he also understood that he could never tell the truth about this matter without reservation, so he sighed: "This is also a scandal of my Wang family, which is not enough to be humanized to outsiders, and since General Shi asked today, I will not hide it." I only ask General Shi not to publicize this matter to the outside world. ”
Shi Wansui nodded: "You can trust me completely." ”
Wang Shichong said: "My grandfather was not actually surnamed Wang, but a Hu man from the Western Regions who had a bankrupt business. The first grandmother took her father with her at that time, and she was lonely and helpless, so she remarried to the Bacheng people, Yi Tong General Wang Ji, and the first father also changed his surname to Wang, so in the eyes of General Wang, our family has no blood relationship with him, he is purely an outsider, and he has inherited the family property of the Wang family, so he has not been waiting to see our family, as a passerby.
Later, when Xia Guan was destroying Nan Chen, he followed Wang Zhu Guo to make some merit, and mixed up with an official body, although he didn't like me, but he didn't want to make the relationship between our two families public outside, but if he wanted to take care of us like a real relative of his own, it would be impossible to talk about it, and I never expected this. ”
Shi Wansui sighed after hearing this: "It turns out that there is still this relationship, no wonder there have been rumors in the circle, saying that it was the high servant who came forward to persuade him, and Wang Shiji reluctantly agreed to take you back to the Wang family and rank in the family tree." But Brother Wang, let me advise you, Wang Shiji is a general of the imperial court, even in our circle, he is also a pivotal figure, and you still have a good relationship with him if you have the opportunity.
You are so rich now, respect him a little more, and we will help you talk again, after all, whether you are related by blood or not, you are all surnamed Wang, and in the eyes of outsiders, you are also a family, even if you become a big official in the future, this point cannot be abolished. ”
Wang Shichong sneered in his heart: Wang Shiji, the evil thief, is the culprit who killed my eldest brother and forced my father, I will kill him and reconcile quickly? It's impossible in the next life.
But Wang Shichong's face still pretended to be very respectful, and he nodded yes again and again.
After Shi Wansui asked this question, the topic changed: "Brother Wang, do you have any suitable candidates under you, and you can recommend them to join the army this time?" I'll arrange it. ”
Wang Shichong said without thinking: "Lingzhou Che Cavalry General Mai Tiecane, brave and good at fighting, has the magic of running, destroying Nan Chen, Pingjiangnan, and fighting Lingnan, these three battles all follow the lower officials, and have military exploits, this time I go to Ningzhou, I will definitely be able to come in handy." ”
Shi Wansui nodded: "I know the Tao of the Mai Iron Cane, the famous Shenxing Taibao, and the martial arts are also quite good, this person is no problem, I will issue an order after I go back, let him do a good job of handover, and ride a fast horse to meet the army." Anything else? ”
Wang Shichong continued: "Xiaoguo Army Shangyitong, Guzang Duan Da, is a fierce general, and now he is in Daxing, in addition, Sima Dekan, the general of the Xiaoguo Army, is also strong in martial arts, if you can, please ask General Shi to bring a hand this time." ”
Shi Wansui pondered for a moment: "These two people are from the Xiaoguo Army, this time we dispatched the soldiers and horses of the Right Guard, and did not use the Xiaoguo Army, so the emperor may not agree to this arrangement, but I will try my best to fight for it." Anyone else? ”
Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "In the face of General Shi's righteousness, the lower officials will go back and take stock of the remaining money from shops in various places, and strive to make up another 100,000 yuan for you, and send it to the house in these two days." ”
Shi Wansui Ha Luha smiled: "Brother is really polite, don't worry about these two people, wrap it up on me." ”
Wang Shichong secretly scolded this Shi Wansui in his heart for being really greedy and slippery, but he still had a grateful expression on his face, he thought about it and said: "Feng Xiaoci, the general of the Daizhou chariot cavalry, and Liu Quan, the hussar general of Qinzhou (Tianshui County in the Han Dynasty, where the government is located in Pingxiang), these two were originally the subordinates of the general Huangfu Ji, and they are also veteran generals who have experienced a hundred battles, I wonder if Lu Dao can bring them with him this time?" ”
Shi Wansui's face changed slightly: "I also know these two people, but they have always been from the Huangfu family, you recommend them, they may not be beneficial to you after they get merit, do you really want to recommend them?" ”
Wang Shichong secretly thought, the son of Huang Fu Ji, although he looks like his father, but his ability and temperament are too far worse than Huang Fuji, and Liu Quan and Feng Xiaoci are both good generals, this opportunity to marry them cannot be missed, so Wang Shichong nodded and said: "Xia Guan has no foundation, and now I don't want to make these people my own personal soldiers, just sell them a favor, and in the future, we can support each other in the military circles and help out, if General Shi is a little difficult to transfer these two people, then Xia Guan will not be reluctant." ”
Shi Wansui shook his head: "Naturally, there is no problem with them, but I heard that you recommended five people, none of them are your family servants here, I see that you also have a lot of strong men here, don't you plan to select some loyal, reliable, and capable people from among them, and join you this time?" ”
Wang Shichong smiled: "Those five just now are all generals above the same level, oh, no, Sima Dekan is only a general of the Zhige now, a little close, but it's about the same, as for my family servants here, didn't you say that you can be my private soldiers and staff when I opened the mansion?" These people can't occupy the quota of those twenty generals. ”
Shi Wansui's eyebrows raised, and his mouth twitched, obviously he counted the quota of these five generals into Wang Shichong's own index, and when he heard Wang Shichong say this, he was a little unhappy: "Wang Yuan, it seems that there is still some misunderstanding between us, these twenty places, I originally wanted to promote some of your extraordinary people here, but since you recommended these five people, then I can't arrange your subordinates anymore, you have to think about it." ”
Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "It's okay, I'll take these people out of Lu by myself as my own personal guards, so it's all right, as for the right to open the mansion, General Shi don't worry, I'll add another million, how about it?" (To be continued......)
