For Shen Duan, the general of Xifengkou, Qi Jiguang is naturally quite important, so he has not moved the position of this general who guards the tribute road. After all, Shen Duan is brave and good at fighting, as for the flattering side he shows, it can't be regarded as a disadvantage in officialdom at all, but can be called an advantage, how many bosses can tolerate maverick and arrogant subordinates? Qi Jiguang was not surprised by Shen Duan's faint revelation that his face seemed to be ready to move, as if he had not been afraid of this kind of information, and he was full of confidence when he talked and laughed, which was completely different from the way he borrowed wine to kill his sorrows in the General Military Mansion before.

On the battlefield, even when he lost the battle, he was never depressed, not to mention, since he came to Jizhen, when did he suffer at the hands of those Tartars?

It was the middle of winter, and Wang Fulin made it clear on the road that he was not ordered to come down, and there was no need for things like Dayue to work hard and hurt money, and Qi Jiguang naturally had no intention of tossing his subordinates for the sake of prestige. It's just that Wang Fulin wants to come to Xifengkou to have a look, he just didn't expect that this fledgling new jinshi would go to other major passes under the jurisdiction of Jizhen on a whim in this kind of cold weather, and even go to Liaodong. Therefore, after following Shen Duan around the Laiyuan Tower, he had no choice but to ask Shen Duan, who obviously wanted to make friends with Wang Fulin, to pick a few elite soldiers and strong generals to escort him on the road.

But just after coming down to the far building and entering the city, he found that he had underestimated Wang Fulin a little. In just a while, this young jinshi has already found an acquaintance in Xifengkou! Despite this, in the face of the two people introduced by Wang Fulin, seeing their excited looks when they saw him, even if he often enjoyed this kind of treatment in the army, he couldn't help but ease his face. Especially after asking, I learned that Zhong Nanfeng and Shen Yourong are both from the southeast. The experience is by no means the same, and he can't help but feel a little emotional, especially for Zhong Nanfeng, who came over from the army.

So much so that Shen Duan couldn't help but wonder if he wanted to transfer people to his side as a personal soldier, so as to form a good fate.

At this time, there was a report from the outside: "Dashuai." Someone asked to see General Shen. ”

Shen Duan also wanted to take the opportunity to deepen his impression in front of Wang Fulin, hoping that after he went back, he would say a few good words for himself in front of Wang Daokun, and his face immediately sank when he heard this, but when the pro-soldier said something again, he suddenly stretched his brows.

"The person who came claimed to be Shen Juren from Xuancheng County, Ningguo Prefecture, who had come to Xifengkou not long ago, and reported to General Shen, just because his nephew had not come back for a long time, and he was worried that something would happen. Therefore, he asked General Shen to help find someone. ”

"Ah, it's my uncle!" Only then did Shen Yourong realize that he was too excited, and he didn't have time to go back to write a letter to his uncle Shen Mao, so he followed Wang Fulin to Qi Jiguang's general office where his troops and horses were stationed. At this moment, he hurriedly bowed his hand to the two high-ranking generals above, "Seeing Qi Dashuai today is really a long-cherished wish of mine." I didn't dare to disturb the official affairs of the marshal and General Shen, so I retired first. ”

"Shihong. I invited you, so wait. Handsome. Shall I send Shihong out first? ”

Wang Fulin is also very interested in Shen Maoxue, which is still the southeast celebrity mentioned by Wang Daoguan, so after saying a word to Qi Jiguang, he glanced at Zhong Nanfeng, who was a little brainless after seeing an idol, and didn't care if this guy could understand it or not. sent Shen Yourong, who was excited, out of the house. Sure enough, when he got out of the General Office, he saw a scribe in his early thirties pacing back and forth, his face clearly full of anxiety.

Shen Maoxue was indeed anxious. The nephew had not returned after noon, so he asked him to go out and investigate. learned that Shen Yourong was young and vigorous, and he actually fought with a thug, and then followed a few sergeants. Although he himself is quite famous, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, is good at riding and shooting, and can even dance a lance on a horse, so Shen Yourong has not liked literature since he was a child, and most of his martial arts are learned from the martial artists who taught him. This time, he took this nephew to Beijing to take the examination, also to broaden his knowledge, and he was not busy returning to his hometown after his name fell to Sun Shan, but planned to take people to Jiubian to take a look, but he didn't expect to poke a basket at Xifengkou.

If it is really some old oilman in the army who can't afford to lose, don't blame him for being polite!

Wang Fulin saw Shen Maoxue walking from a distance, and suddenly rolled up his sleeves and couldn't help but laugh secretly. At this moment, Shen Yourong had already rushed forward at a trot and shouted, "Uncle! ”

Hearing this uncle, Shen Maoxue immediately came back to his senses, he suddenly lowered his sleeves, and when he looked back and saw his intact nephew coming out of the General Office, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. When he saw that not far behind Shen Yourong, a young man in plain clothes about his age was walking towards him, he said to Shen Yourong angrily: "I don't want to take anyone when I go out in the morning, and I don't come back so late, do you want to kill me in a hurry?" Was this son who broke the siege for you and brought you to the general's office? ”

"It's pretty much the same." Shen Yourong scratched his head embarrassedly, and then said with a smile, "Thanks to him, I just met Qi Dashuai!" ”

Shen Maoxue was taken aback. Although he said that he was not on the list today, with his identity as a person and a famous person in the southeast, he was confident that he would be able to take his nephew to meet Qi Jiguang. After all, the corporal Lixian, the chief soldier of Jizhen, was also famous. Now that his nephew has fulfilled his wish ahead of schedule, it is because of this young man of his age that he is naturally a little more curious. At this time, he saw the other party smiling and arching his hand: "Mr. Shen, fortunately, in Wang Fulin, Songming Mountain, Xiashe County." ”

If this is the other top three Jinshi in this department, Shen Maoxue may not be able to remember all of them, but the uproar caused by Wang Fulin at the beginning is really not small, so he understood it all at once, and immediately replied: "It turned out to be Wang Gongzi, and it was really surprising that he met in a place like Xifengkou, you are a top three scholar, shouldn't the Jinshi of Jinke be all candidates in Beijing?" ”

"Luckily in the exam, I, a young third-class jinshi, will not compete for a seat with others, taking advantage of the fact that it is not my turn to elect officials in the ministry, I will first come out to the nine sides to take a walk, so as not to be free in the future, I didn't expect to meet Mr. Shen's uncle and nephew in Xifengkou so coincidentally. I just told Shihong that Xuancheng is only more than 300 miles from She County, and we are half of the same countrymen. ”

Shen Maoxue heard Wang Fulin say this, but he felt fresh and interesting, and what made him feel good about Wang Fulin was that the other party was not self-conscious. A mouthful of a gentleman, he was a little embarrassed to call him. And Shen Yourong because of Wang Fulin's relationship that left a good first impression on him, he even helped him next to him and said: "Uncle, Brother Wang said that he would go to Liaodong, don't we plan to go too?" When the time comes, you might as well go along. ”

"If Mr. Shen really wants to go to Liaodong in a few days, can you take my group with you? I'm not the best at equestrianism. Archery is ignorant, but a little bit of swordsmanship, and the entourage with him is also good, including veterans of the Zhejiang army, which should not be held back. ”

Wang Fulin even said the three words of delay, where could Shen Maoxue find a reason to oppose it? He thought about it carefully, thinking that he and Shen Yourong were not going to fight, but just to broaden their knowledge and knowledge, so they walked with Wang Fulin, who had a reputation for being a scholar. Beneficial and harmless. Most importantly, he was impressed by the other party's modest and polite attitude. He wanted to take advantage of this to ask to see Qi Jiguang, but he thought that his nephew had already seen the general soldier of Jizhen, and everyone came out at this time, and he didn't even prepare a prayer post, which was too informal, so he asked Wang Fulin to convey his gratitude and explain that he would worship again in the future. He took Shen Yourong back.

And Wang Fulin looked at Shen Maoxue's appearance, and knew that Shen Yourong was likely to eat Shen Maoxue's meal when he went back. Although there is no Jinshi in the three generations of the Xuancheng Shen family for the time being. It doesn't seem to be as good as the current situation of the Wang family of Songmingshan, but the fourth word of the scholarly door is more worthy of the name than the Wang family of Songmingshan, but I didn't expect this very interesting uncle and nephew! In the future, when he is traveling with him, should he ask the Shen family's uncle and nephew if they can ride and shoot? Although he may not be able to practice both civil and military skills, it is good to have one more self-protection ability!

When Wang Fulin returned to the lobby of the General Staff, he saw Qi Jiguang as well. Shen Duan is no good, looking at his gaze is a little strange. He glanced at Zhong Nanfeng, who was slightly embarrassed, and thought to himself that this guy must have told everything he knew about his time in Hangzhou, but it was not a secret, so he didn't take it seriously. After conveying Shen Maoxue's greetings, he also explained one more sentence by the way: "I heard my uncle say that Mr. Shen is a famous person in the southeast, a son of the Xuancheng family. ”

Qi Jiguang had dealings with many literati and scholars in addition to fighting against the Japanese in the southeast before, but most of them were just socializing, only Wang Daokun was because of the friendship he formed side by side against the Japanese, so it was very different. At this moment, not to mention that Wang Fulin deliberately pointed out Shen Maoxue's fame, just because he was in Xifengkou, it was impossible for him to treat others coldly, so he nodded with a smile at the moment.

"General Shen, since this Mr. Shen has the same surname as you, and he has been in Xifengkou for many days, you will make a post on my behalf and invite his uncle and nephew to climb the side wall together the day after tomorrow. Shiqing, you will also follow me west to Panjiakou this time, and when you return here, since you want to go to Liaodong and take the official road in the mainland, it is better to take the marching road in the border wall. You can go east from Xifengkou to Xiongwotou, and then I will ask General Shen to send ten soldiers to escort you, from Qingshankou, then to Lengkou, Hekou, Liujiakou, Taolinkou, Jielingkou, Jianjiling, Yiyuankou, Dongjiakou, and finally Shanhaiguan. ”

Although the side wall of Jizhen has not been completely repaired now, the enemy tower of the pier platform has almost been completed, which is quite impressive. Especially in the area of Xifengkou, because of the tribute road, it is even more majestic!

Later generations called it the Great Wall, and most of the people in this year called it the side wall. It is said that if you don't climb the Great Wall, you are not a hero, but Wang Fulin was quite moved to hear that he would take this side road after climbing the Great Wall at this moment. And the next moment, Zhong Nanfeng recklessly asked a naïve question: "Dashuai, since the side walls of Jizhen are connected in a line, why don't you go directly from above?" The side wall in this area near Xifengkou is spacious enough to ride a horse! ”

This time, Shen Duan only felt a fever on his face, and he was deeply glad that he hadn't recruited such a guy into the soldiers, and immediately scolded: "Fool, the Great Wall near the Xifeng Pass is wider than other places, and because the gate is high, it looks flat with the mountains on both sides, and you can ride a horse, but you can try it after this section?" When you ride a horse uphill and downhill, it can kill you, if you are on foot, it is freezing tightly on this cold day, how do you walk? Marshal, this person has never been a Taiwanese soldier on the enemy's platform, and it is estimated that he has memorized the orders of the beacon artillery, and it is all the fault of his humble position. ”

Seeing Zhong Nanfeng being scolded as a fool but not daring to speak up, with a frustrated face, Wang Fulin couldn't help but move in his heart, and immediately said: "I am grateful for the kindness of the handsome, how about adding this Zhong Nanfeng among the ten people assigned on the other day?" I heard that there were two veterans of the Zhejiang army who were assigned to him in the same situation, so I simply got together, and my uncle and nephew of the Shen family are both from Nanzhili, and there are a few more acquaintances in the southeast, which is also more cordial. ”

Although Qi Jiguang also felt that Zhong Nanfeng was a rammer, since Wang Fulin opened his mouth, he also agreed. After Wang Fulin thanked him and retired, he also made an excuse to slip away when he saw Shen Duan, and immediately went out of the lobby to look up at the sky. Although Shen Kou kept saying that Dong Fox might attack again, and Xifengkou was one of the targets, he knew that everything was still unknown.

Wuliang Ha Sanwei, the target of the Taining Department is mostly in Liaodong, and the Duoyan Department is harassing Jizhen the most, he beat Dong Fox to the ground again and again, it is estimated that Dong Fox Dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, but some opposition forces in the Duoyan Department can't help it! Before the beginning of spring, there should be another battle, and it depends on whether there will be any important news when the Duoyan Department is infighting. (To be continued......)
