Zhang Juzheng was still in the main hall to meet with Shen Shixing, Wang Guoguang and other guests, and Qin Lin and Qi Jiguang had to wait in the side hall for a while.

Contrary to Yu Dayou, who is serious, and even a little wooden and unsophisticated, Qi Jiguang is extremely talkative, very funny, and a self-acquaintance, and he has shortened the distance with Qin Lin in a few words, and the two talked and laughed freely.

Who says that if you have great ability, you must have a big temper? Qi Jiguang is a counterexample.

Before they met, Qin Lin thought that the famous young guard Grandpa Qi must be a black-faced and black-mouthed handsome man with a straight face at any time; When I met, I realized that he was not only not serious at all, but he was a set of sycophants who filmed Zhang Juzheng, even when he talked and laughed, he also gaged and did everything, and he was very approachable.

At first, Qin Lin felt that this "sycophant" was too far away from Qi Shaobao in his mind, not only him, but even Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali's eyes were shattered.

But later, Qin Lin thought about it carefully, Qi Jiguang was able to do the vital Zuo Du Governor of Jizhen and the first rank of martial arts, and he was also awarded Shaobao, and almost reached the peak of his contemporaries, if he was as unsophisticated as Yu Dayou and offended people everywhere like a cannon barrel, is it possible? No matter how much credit you make, Yu Dayou has made great achievements, and as a result, he has made trouble to the point of being unjustly imprisoned!

Because You Qi and Yao Ba were very cordial and enthusiastic towards Qin Lin, and said that he and Zhang Juzheng were sharing cakes and eating in Danqi, Qi Jiguang regarded him as Zhang Juzheng's descendant during the conversation, and there was no taboo in speaking.

Just as Qin Lin guessed, Zhang Juzheng does have an extraordinary promotion and reuse of Qi Jiguang, especially in the post of the chief soldier of Jizhen, the system of the Ming Dynasty is to unify the military with literature, and the governor of Jiliao is in charge of the general army of Jizhen, but to what extent does Zhang Juzheng trust Qi Jiguang? All the governors who do not deal with Qi Jiguang will be demoted and transferred! It must be a Wenchen who can cooperate well with Qi Jiguang before he is allowed to be placed in the position of the governor of Jiliao!

As for the food, clothing, and armor needed by the border army, Qi Jiguang compiled and trained the firearms and equipment necessary for the new army, and Zhang Juzheng spared no effort to purchase them for him, even to the point that the officials of the Beijing division were compromised, and did not reduce a penny of the border army's food and salary!

And Qi Jiguang also reciprocated the favor, and felt five feelings for Zhang Juzheng, not only transferred elite musketeers from the border army to serve as Zhang Juzheng's leading guard, carefully protected the safety of the emperor's first assistant, but also tried his best to buy Persian orchids, fur dog kidneys, Burmese bells and other things to honor Zhang Xiangye.

This "Will Reconcile" sings beautifully!

Before Qi Jiguang went to Jizhen, more than 100,000 people from the little prince of the barbarian department repeatedly attacked the border, and the Dong fox of the Duoyan Department rebelled and descended, and the border beacons continued one after another, so that the governor Wang Chen and Yang Xuan were sentenced for losing the opportunity, and ten generals were changed in 17 years, and the ending was no exception - they all went to the new post with their heads held high, and they were dismissed from their posts in frustration.

When Qi Jiguang came to Jizhen, the atmosphere changed, and the little prince, Dong Fox and other departments were hit hard, since the second year of Longqing Qi Jiguang ended the southern anti-Japanese war and was transferred to Jizhen, it has been more than ten years, and the Tuman, Duoyan and other departments have more than 100,000 people who control the strings, and they have never been able to take a step beyond the thunder pool of Jizhen.

Marshal Qi's ability to command the army, compared with the two governors and the top ten generals who were killed and dismissed in front of him, is really a world apart!

During the conversation, Qin Lin learned that the fourth-grade military attache was Qi Jiguang's nephew Qi Jin, who served in Qi Jiguang's army, and they made a special trip to return to Beijing from Jizhen, three hundred miles away, to visit Zhang Juzheng, who had the grace of knowing each other, on the second day of the junior high school.

Seeing that Qi Jiguang didn't put on a show, Qin Lin also took off his traces and talked to him casually: "I heard that the little prince of the Tuban Department led 40,000 iron horsemen to knock on Liaodong in the previous month, and Li Chengliang made quite a success, brother, you were also ordered to go on the expedition, why didn't you report your military achievements?" In the hall of the White Tiger of the Jinyi Guard, the official residence, I saw the military information reported from the border gates everywhere, and Li Shuaijie's reports from Liaodong were frequent, but Jizhen was silent, what is the reason? ”

Qi Jiguang stroked his goatee, thought about it for a while, and then said with a smile: "My brother's ambitions have been worn out in the past few years, and keeping the Jingshi safe is all right, unlike Li Shuai, who is still forging ahead, and of course his military exploits are much less than him." ”

"Uncle!" Qi Jin was very unconvinced, and he was afraid that Qin Lin would misunderstand, so he was ready to defend himself.

Qi Jiguang waved his hand and looked back at him sternly, Qi Jin had no choice but to close his mouth, his expression was still puffed up.

After all, it was the first meeting, and Qin Lin was not easy to ask.

Qi Jiguang had already looked at the musket on Niu Dali's waist in his eyes, and just took this opportunity to change the topic, and pointed his hand with a smile: "Presumably this thing is the stun gun that made Yue Wei Guogong present the imperial court?" The old brother can't walk when he sees the new firearms, can the old brother Qin borrow it and take a look? ”

Didn't Zeng Xingwu be responsible for the manufacture of the new musket and promote its use in the border army?

And in addition to the Beijing Division Car Battalion that was the first to change its outfit, it was the turn of the new army in Jizhen next, how could I hear that Qi Jiguang hadn't touched the stun gun yet? Is the progress being delayed?

Qin Lin was surprised, but thinking that the procedures of the imperial court were often lengthy and complicated, he did not delve into it, and immediately ordered Niu to vigorously dissolve the electric gun and show it to Qi Jiguang.

Qi Jiguang took the gun into his hand, his expression changed suddenly, he first concentrated on observing, groping for how to use it, and then moved very skillfully to pull away the hammer, full of strength with both hands to hold the flat end of the gun, the gun body was as steady as Mount Tai, closed his left eye and only aimed with his right eye, the eyes that opened were shining, the man and the gun were almost integrated, he sat on the chair and did not stand up, and the momentum was still extremely strong!

Qin Lin watched from the side, and his heart jumped: Sure enough, this is Qi Shaobao Qi Tiger who is fierce like a mountain tiger! For the woe of the southeast, they were all frightened when they heard the name of Qi Jiguang, and when they heard that "Qi Laohu" was coming, they immediately scattered their souls, this young insurance is not simple!

"Yes, this stun gun is really good," Putting the gun lightly on the table, Qi Jiguang returned to the smiling and vulgar appearance just now, as if the scene of the divine light when holding the gun had never happened.

Whether the fired fire skin is damp or not, what is the range of the gun, how much is the cost of manufacturing, whether it can penetrate the iron armor, whether it can be used in wind and rain, Qi Jiguang's problems are more and more detailed than Yu Dayou, and they are discussed with Qin Lin in the same way.

When they asked one by one, Qi Jiguang's face suddenly sank: "Brother Qin, you two new guns are not shallow!" Big brother, I'm going to lose a lot again! ”

Qin Lin was puzzled, "The manufacturing cost of the stun gun is lower than that of the three-eyed gun, what does Brother Qi mean?" ”

"My "New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness" and "Actual Record of Military Training" are all written according to the regulations of shotguns and three-eyed guns, with the two new guns that you and Ling Yue have come up with, the combat formations and tactics will all change, and the old brother will have to add or delete these two books overnight, and then it will cost money to engrave a new version and print it, Brother Qin, don't you say that you are not harmful?"

After Qi Jiguang finished speaking, he laughed.

Qin Lin was shocked in his heart, no wonder Qi Jiguang was famous, he would win the battle in his life, he was not only powerful in commanding the army, but also so unique in tactical thinking!

The commanders of the Nanjing guards did not understand the significance of new firearms at all; Yu Dayou realized that it enhanced firepower and increased combat effectiveness; But Qi Jiguang was the only one who had the foresight to point out that the new firearms would bring about a series of changes in the art of war and tactics, so much so that his "New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness" and "The Actual Record of Military Training" had to be revised!

Qin Lin sighed, and also joked with Qi Jiguang: "Qi Shuai's two military books, it's better not to revise and reprint them for the time being, brother still has a few ideas for improving firearms, I'm afraid that after success in the future, brother, you will have to revise the version, wouldn't it be too much trouble?" It's better to change it later. ”

"Brother Qin is really wonderful!" Qi Jiguang stroked his palms and laughed: "Brother, I'm not afraid to change my art of war, the more I change, the better, and the more diligent I am, the better." ”

Qin Lin nodded and admired, from the beginning of the incredible, even a little contempt, to the current heartfelt admiration: the invincible Qi Shaobao in the world, worthy of his name!

Qi Jiguang took the electric gun in his hand and rubbed it a few times, and finally handed it back to Niu Dali with some reluctance.

Qin Lin said with a smile: "Since my brother likes it, I'll give it to you!" To tell the truth, there are still seventy or eighty in my brother's house, and although the supply army is not enough, Brother Qi will take one, and my brother will not feel distressed. ”

Qi Jiguang was overjoyed, and immediately handed the electric gun to his nephew, and Qi Jin was very happy to insert it into his waist.

The fat man sweated profusely and ran from home, and sure enough, he took two new Burmese bells that had not been sold, Qi Jiguang was very happy, and asked Qi Jin to take the brocade box, and put it up with a treasure, and took pen and ink, and neatly added the name of the gift to the gift list.

Yao Ba walked out of it, Qi Jiguang took a step forward and handed him the brocade box: "Thanks to Brother Qin's willingness to help, I am fortunate not to be dishonored." ”

"Chief Qin's supernatural powers are vast, Brother Qi, the more you interact with him, the more you get to the back, the more you will know that the benefits are more," Yao Ba smiled and put away the brocade box, informing them that Zhang Xiangye had already sent Shen Ge Lao and Wang Tianguan away, so please let the two of you go in together.

Zhang Juzheng was waiting in the main hall, Qi Jiguang was different, Qin Lin was still walking unhurriedly, this handsome man trotted forward, pushed the golden mountain and poured the jade pillar to bow down, and said "Qi Jiguang, who is small under the door, kowtows and kneels", a large series of sycophants are endless, and he holds his hands high to present the gift list.

Although Qin Lin had been mentally prepared, he couldn't help but smile dumbly when he saw this.

But the same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, who said that anti-Japanese heroes must be arrogant and conceited? Why can't the invincible Qi Jiguang slap Zhang Juzheng, the first auxiliary emperor who promoted and appreciated him?

However, Zhang Juzheng looked at the gift list, and when he saw the Burmese bell added at the end, the prime minister smiled heartily, put the gift list into his sleeve, and helped Qi Jiguang up with both hands: "My Qi Dashuai, you are also well-intentioned, the old man will give more favors, haha, thank you more." ”

Qin Lin didn't kneel according to the old rules, Qi Jiguang was quite surprised when he saw this, and naturally didn't say anything in front of Zhang Juzheng.

Happy New Year, it's nothing important, Dong Laxi said some auspicious words, Zhang Juzheng didn't like to deal with Qin Lin, he blew his beard and glared at him in a few words, and Qi Jiguang felt funny when he saw it.

Zhang Juzheng said a lot to Qi Jiguang, but he didn't ask a word about the military, only asked him whether the military salary was sufficient, how much money was needed to train the new army, and how he got along with the governor Yang Zhao.

It seems that in the military, Zhang Juzheng trusts Qi Jiguang 100 percent.

For other questions, Qi Jiguang asked one answer and ten answers, but when he came to Yang Zhao, he hesitated slightly: "Governor Yang, there is no constraint on Mu En......

"That's good, that's good!" Zhang Juzheng stroked his beard, at this time, Agul and Briya, two Persian orchids, walked outside with a smile, Zhang Juzheng smiled slightly, and had no time to ask Qi Jiguang in detail, so he served tea and sent it off.

Qin Lin was thoughtful, and when he came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he invited Qi Jiguang to eat roast duck at a cheap place.
