Walking through the champion fang, when going to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors, Wu Fanhui took a special look at the newly repaired champion fang, Mizhi County appeared the first champion, this is the glory of the county, the construction of the champion fang is also expected, but the scale of the construction of the champion workshop is a little large, it looks too conspicuous.

Wu Mingkun, Wu Mingbo, Wu Mingfu, Chen Huaqu and Wu Mingfeng waited in front of the ancestral hall, and after seeing Wu Fanhui, the five of them knelt neatly under the leadership of Wu Mingkun and saluted Wu Fanhui.

Wu Fanhui didn't pretentiously, and when everyone got up, he asked them with a serious look about their studies, whether they could pass the county examination in the coming year, etc., to say that Wu Fanhui was too demanding, Wu Mingkun was the oldest, but he was twelve years old, and he couldn't ask Wu Mingkun and others with his own imperial examination results.

But it's good to urge everyone to learn.

Only an assistant like Wu Mingkun is the most trustworthy and effective for Wu Fanhui, but there is still time for it.

After paying homage to the ancestors of the Wu family, it is time for the family to set up a banquet in the Four Seas Restaurant.

Wu Fanhui and his family are going to participate, this is a banquet set up by the family, except for the patriarch and elders of the Wu family, no one else will participate.

Wu Fanhui drank a lot of wine, and showed a respectful attitude towards the elders of the Wu family, which made him get a lot of praise.

After eating, the time was not yet noon, Wu Fanhui no longer hesitated, and took Wang Baofu and others towards Ma'anshan Village, and after Li Yong and others returned to Mizhi County, they went directly to Ma'anshan Village, and did not come to the county seat.

From the county seat to Ma'anshan Village, the road was very calm, but Wu Fanhui's heart was not calm, although the imperial court finally sent the imperial governor to Shaanxi at the beginning of the year to relieve the disaster, and the governor of Shaanxi was also adjusted to practice state affairs, but this does not mean that the life of the common people is better, and they can be peaceful.

Arriving at Ma'anshan Village, Wu Fanhui nodded slightly, although the maize in the field he saw could not be compared with hundreds of years later, whether it was height or density, there was a big difference, but at a glance, the yield of maize was higher than that of wheat.

Li Yong, Ma Jigang, Sun Kailin, Liu Fangheng, Dai Nengxiang and others were already waiting at the entrance of the village.

After seeing Li Yong and the others, Wu Fanhui said with a smile, saying that after going home, it must be hard.

Wu Fanhui's words made everyone laugh, of course everyone understood what it meant, it is said that the young master has not yet married, but he is the champion, and he doesn't know anything.

Entering the house, Dai Nengxiang immediately took out the account book and began to report the situation in the village.

Wu Fanhui waved his hand and interrupted Dai Nengxiang's report.

"These things don't need to be reported, I just looked at it, the situation in the village is very good, Dai Nengxiang, you have worked hard at home, when you leave, I arranged two things, one is how the situation is, especially the situation in Yan'an Prefecture, and the other is the Liukou in Shaanxi, what is the situation now."

Dai Nengxiang's expression also became serious, when the young master was leaving, he specifically emphasized the matter of the scout, requiring the scout to go out to investigate, to understand the surrounding situation, not to close the door, not to know anything outside, he was arranged in strict accordance with the requirements of the young master, and indeed a large amount of information was detected, in order to avoid forgetting, most of the things were written down in detail.

Before he could open his mouth to report, Dai Nengxiang took out a stack of papers, which were all about many things he recorded, and the most critical thing was recorded at the end, and it was also a question that Dai Nengxiang had thought about in detail.

"Young master, since the middle of last month, there have been a lot of displaced people back to Mizhi County, some of the displaced people have gone outside the village, hoping to be able to do things in the village, the subordinates have asked these displaced people in detail, they are the sergeants of Shen Yikui who are in charge of the plate of Liukou, after Shen Yikui surrendered to the imperial court in Ningzhou, they were sent home, some of them took the money and grain given by the government, and returned to Mizhi County, most of the sergeants under Shen Yikui are refugees from Mizhi, Suide and Qingjian and other places, according to these displaced people, After most of the people took the money and food given by the government, they did not leave Ningzhou, but continued to follow Shen Yikui's side. ”

Wu Fanhui nodded slightly and did not speak.

Dai Nengxiang also stopped, this is the biggest problem he is currently facing, there are hundreds of displaced people who have returned, whether to recruit these people or not, Dai Nengxiang does not dare to make a decision, now these people are stationed less than ten miles away from Ma'anshan Village, and they are still waiting honestly.

"Dai Nengxiang, tell me in detail about the recruitment of rogues by the imperial court."

Wu Fanhui flipped through the paper in his hand, didn't look up, and asked.

"Yes, young master, my subordinates sent scouts to the surrounding area to investigate, and got the news, at the end of February, the Liukou led by Shen Yikui had a large number of people, and they even attacked Qingyang Fucheng, and later captured Heshui County, captured the county magistrate, in March, the governor of the three sides, Lord Yang He, stationed in Ningzhou, Qingyang Mansion, after a fight, including Shen Yikui, many rogues took charge of the plate, and surrendered to Lord Yang, which included the golden-winged tiger, the heavenly star, the one-headed tiger and the heavenly dragon, etc., Shen Yikui released the magistrate of Heshui County."

"After Lord Yang recruited many rogues, he dismissed most of them and asked them to return to their native farmland, and some of those who were willing to stay were recruited into the army, because Shen Yikui's strength was the strongest, and it is said that Lord Yang personally pacified Shen Yikui and ordered Shen Yikui to lead his sergeants to garrison Ansai Fort...

Wu Fanhui's expression became very ugly.

Dai Nengxiang thought that he had not investigated any information, his face was a little pale, and he didn't know what to continue to say.

Seeing this, Li Yong on the side hurriedly opened his mouth to add.

"Young master, Dai Nengxiang said all the information yesterday, and his subordinates felt that the scouts were still trying their best during this time, and they detected a lot of information, and Dai Nengxiang also wrote down all the important information. . . ."

Wu Fanhui looked up at everyone, shook his head slightly and spoke.

"Lord Yang is raising a tiger for trouble, since he has been given to everyone by the imperial court, he must really exterminate the rogues, at least he can't let go of the rogues, so as to reflect the determination of the court to exterminate the rogues, so easily pardoned the rogues, isn't it child's play, I'm afraid it doesn't matter if those rogues don't win, surrender if they can't win, and then rebel after surrendering, and then loot, as long as the life is comfortable."

Li Yong and the others looked at Wu Fanhui and were dumbfounded.

Wu Fanhui looked at everyone again.

"Li Yong, starting tomorrow, you will personally lead the scouts to investigate in all parts of Yan'an Mansion, and you must find out the situation of the Liukou, Lord Yang's approach will make a big mistake and make the Liukou's arrogance more and more arrogant, not to mention Yan'an Mansion, I'm afraid that Mizhi County is only so safe."

"Dai Nengxiang, the displaced people who returned to Mizhi County are basically honest and afraid, tomorrow you and Liu Fangheng and others, go to the place where they are stationed, select some people to enter the village, by the way, bring Ma Sanli, he is familiar with these situations, you remember, what is needed in the village is young and strong, what is the purpose of selecting these young people, I don't need to say more, as for the old and weak women and children, they can't be accepted at present, this is something that the state and county yamen need to worry about, and it is not our turn to help."

"Ma Jigang, Sun Kailin, the autumn harvest season is coming soon, it seems that this year's harvest is not bad, at least much stronger than last year, I ask everyone to be careful, Ma'an Village is not what it used to be, maybe someone will be tempted, as long as it is a person who dares to invade the village, no matter what his identity is, he will be killed."

After arranging, Wu Fanhui stood up and walked to the front of the map.

The map copied from the county government has always been hung in the house, and Wu Fanhui went to the capital with a brief map.

When looking at the map, Wu Fanhui's body shook slightly, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Li Yong and the others hurriedly surrounded them, they didn't know what was going on.

Seeing Li Yong and others surrounding him, Wu Fanhui turned his head and smiled, saying that there was nothing wrong, maybe he didn't have time to rest after eating and drinking, and came directly to Ma'an Village, so he was a little uncomfortable.

Wu Fanhui, who saw the map, thought of some major events that happened at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know how many comments there were after hundreds of years of these things, but he who entered the capital to participate in the meeting examination and the palace examination actually forgot about it.

What Wu Fanhui saw was the Daling River in eastern Liaodong.

I remember that during the examination, Cabinet Minister Sun Chengzong did not participate in the marking of the papers, and inspected Liaodong, in fact, Sun Chengzong was inspecting the Dalinghe City that was being prepared to be built.

With the construction of Dalinghe City, a major event involving the stability of the Ming Dynasty is about to happen, that is, the Battle of Dalinghe and the Denglai Mutiny, which are closely related.

After the Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty led a large army to attack the city of Dalinghe under construction, the imperial court ordered all kinds of troops to rush to help, including the so-called new army stationed in Dengzhou, which was a new army built by Xu Guangqi and his student Sun Yuanhua with great efforts, mainly in the training of artillery and firearms and cavalry, and the sergeants were mostly Han Chinese from Liaodong, and most of them belonged to the subordinates of Mao Wenlong, who was beheaded by Yuan Chonghuan.

Leading the army to the aid was the Dengzhou staff general Kong Youde.

Because the new army stationed in Dengzhou was at odds with the Shandong soldiers and also encountered local exclusion, when the 800 cavalry led by Kong Youde went to reinforce them, they could not get supplies along the way, and finally mutiny occurred in Wuqiao.

The subsequent development of the mutiny was in full swing, destroying the Denglai recruits that the imperial court had invested heavily in building, and also ruining the situation carefully created by Xu Guangqi and Denglai Governor Sun Yuanhua.

The Battle of the Daling River and the Denglai Mutiny have involved many people, including Cabinet Minister Sun Chengzong, who has not come back since then.

Wu Fanhui couldn't control such a big thing, but he thought of one person, that is, Wu Zhuangyuan, deputy chief soldier of Shandong Wang Laipin, as expected, Wang Laipin died in the battle of Denglai.
