Chapter 216: Hidden Worries Three Years Later

Wang Teng remembers very well that in the history of later generations, in the Battle of Songjin, which determined the fortunes of the Ming Dynasty, it was precisely because of the heavy rain that the Ming army's firearms were dumb that the Ming army was defeated, otherwise, even if Hong Chengchou's command was wrong, the Ming army would not be defeated miserably.

The elite of the 150,000 border army fought against the 50,000 army, and the result was defeated, and such a result was absolutely fatal.

The Ming Dynasty spent countless money and food to train an army of 150,000, which was burned in one battle, and the Guanliao defense line where countless border generals fought bloodily no longer existed.

At present, there are still four years before the Battle of Songjin, and Wang Teng still has time to plan and prepare.

When Wang Teng was distracted, Lu Xiangsheng was in a very good mood, "Wang Teng, do you have a table?" ”

Wang Teng smiled embarrassedly, "Despicable and vulgar, there is no expression."

Lu Xiangsheng twisted his beard and smiled, "How about this official take a table of words for you?" ”

Wang Teng was naturally overjoyed, "Thank you, my lord."

The officials around were surprised, Lu Xiangsheng is the governor of Xuanda, such a first-class official actually took the word for a six-grade thousand general, if this is spread, I am afraid that it will cause a huge shock.

Lu Xiangsheng pondered for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "How about the expression of loyalty?" ”

Where does Wang Teng have the power to be picky, not to mention, this table is really good, "The lower officials will be loyal to the country, but loyal and forgiving."

Lu Xiangsheng didn't expect Wang Teng to think of the meaning of Weizhong so quickly, and he was overjoyed at the moment: "Okay, you can understand the thoughts of the official, and it is not in vain that the official gave you this expression."

Wang Teng thanked again and again, "The grace of the adult, the humble duty is unforgettable."

When the nearby Guangling army heard Lu Xiangsheng's words, he immediately felt honored.

Looking at the world, how many people can get Lu Xiangsheng's words?

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have believed that Lu Xiangsheng would be so kind to Wang Teng?

Everyone naturally didn't know that there was a catastrophe three years after Lu Xiangsheng, they only felt that Wang Teng had hugged his thick legs, and from then on, he would be on the rise.

Only Wang Teng knew that if there was no accident, Lu Xiangsheng would only have three years to live, and it was not Huang Taiji who caused Lu Xiangsheng's death, but Yang Sichang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Gao Qiqian, the superintendent of the army.

After Lu Xiangsheng's death, Yang Sichang not only did not do anything, but was promoted to a scholar of Dongge University because of his merits, and became a cabinet elder!

Such traitors can steal from high positions, how can Wang Teng endure it?

With the expression of Weizhong, Wang Teng has been completely branded with Lu Xiangsheng from then on.

If Lu Xiangsheng is safe and sound, Wang Teng will naturally sit back and relax, and if something happens to Lu Xiangsheng, Wang Teng will definitely become the target of public criticism.

Opportunities always coexist with dangers, Wang Teng did not complain about this, he would rather die on the battlefield with Lu Xiangsheng than wagging his tail and begging for mercy, and live without shame.

Half an hour later, Lu Xiangsheng patted his horse and left, and before leaving, he specially sent people to Dinghe Fort to draw a map of the ditch outside the fort for reference.

In a few months, Jiannu will inevitably invade again, and if they can follow the precedent of Dinghe Fort, there may be a surprise.

Chen An and other generals were more realistic, they felt that Guangling firearms were sharp, and each of them asked for one.

The imperial court is the most important military exploit, and the sharpness of Guangling's firecrackers has been undoubtedly revealed, if the armies of all roads can follow Guangling's example and supervise the creation of high-quality firearms, wouldn't it be one more killer to kill the enemy in the future?

Of course, it costs the most money to build firearms, and it is unknown how many firearms these generals can make.

After the people left, Wang Teng begged for his own pocket and took out two thousand five hundred taels of silver from the treasury as a reward.

In this martial arts, the Guangling soldiers fought for Wang Teng, and let him show off in front of Lu Xiangsheng, which is something that no amount of silver can buy, Wang Teng naturally wants to express it, so as to ensure that the morale is high.

"Soldiers, it is very hard for you to drill in formation, but the hard work pays off, and you are in front of Inspector Lu to increase my Guangling military prestige, this is a great joy, and this official naturally wants to be rewarded! Come on, those who hold the pear wood waist card will be rewarded with three taels of silver per person, those who hold the iron card will be rewarded with five taels, and those who hold the bronze medal will be rewarded with ten taels! ”

The soldier was overjoyed, "Thank you, Lord reward!" ”

Killing ten enemies can be exchanged for iron cards, and now almost more than half of the soldiers in the Guangling army have changed iron cards, which means that at least three hundred people can get a reward of five taels!

As for the bronze medal holder, there is only one Huang Degong in the Guangling Army.

Wang Teng set the rules, those who capture the flag can hold a bronze medal!

The difference in waist cards also has great differences in the corresponding treatment.

However, the Guangling Army's combat exploits are transparent, and the holders of the iron and bronze medals are all people with outstanding military achievements, and the rest of the soldiers are convinced!

Three or five taels of silver, this is a lot of silver, the soldiers naturally smiled when they got the silver, but they were rewarded with three taels of silver after performing martial arts under the scorching sun, and such a good thing could not be found with lanterns.

Many people even hope that Lu Xiangsheng can come a few more times, so that everyone will be beneficial.

If it was a month ago, two thousand five hundred taels of silver would be a big amount for Wang Teng, but today's Wang Teng has already changed from what it used to be, and before he knew it, he had already made a lot of silver.

Lingqiu and his party, Wang Teng made a lot of money, just raided the Tie's secret room to get 80,000 taels of silver, and later the Song and Huang families also presented 20,000 taels of silver in order to eliminate the disaster, so calculated, the pure silver alone is 100,000 taels, which is not counting the iron material of the Tie's Iron Factory, and the harvest of Huyukou and his party.

Since the crossing, Wang Teng's waist has never been so thick.

It's just a reward of two thousand five hundred taels of silver, and it's not a big deal at all.

100,000 taels of white eyes, plus the iron factory that is making money every day, even if he recruits 10,000 soldiers and horses, Wang Teng can afford to raise them.

However, after all, Wang Teng is only a six-grade thousand general, even with Lu Xiangsheng's permission, he can recruit troops, but under the existing system, he does not dare to be too ostentatious.

In the history of later generations, how did Lu Xiangsheng die?

Isn't it because the prison army is high and can't be saved?

That is the governor of Xuanda, and it is the third time that Lu Xiangsheng, who gave Shang Fang the sword and was in charge of the world's soldiers and horses!

Such a powerful and prominent figure has been killed by people, how dare Wang Teng, a small Liupinqian, be too out of line?

Fortunately, there are still three years before the battle of the giant deer that Lu Xiangsheng died, and three years is enough for Wang Teng to raise a powerful army of soldiers and horses.

If there is really a situation where Gao Qi is diving and not being rescued, Wang Teng will personally lead the army to rescue, no matter what, he can't sit back and watch Lu Xiangsheng die alone!

Three years later, the variables are too great, in between, Wang Teng has to promote his official position as much as possible, only when the position is high, he can justifiably recruit troops.

In battles like the Battle of Julu, there must be at least 5,000 people to change the tide of the battle, and 5,000 people means that Wang Teng must at least be a general!
