Chapter 402: Sweeping the Tail
Tang Sai'er left and went to Jiangnan.
Jiang Wei was also able to successfully return to Jinyiwei, but he could only serve in Jinyiwei temporarily, with this criminal record, whether it was Mu Bin or Zhang Ru, it was unlikely that he would continue to serve as a thousand households in Jinyiwei.
Jiang Wei, who was still an official, was sent by Zhang Ru to Tianjin to wait for the resumption of construction, because as soon as Tang Sai'er left, a person named Xie Lun came to the door.
Zhang Ru had a long conversation with Xie Lun all night, and felt that it was not very safe for Xie Lun to run a business in Tianjin without any military support, so he decided to send someone to follow him for a long time.
But after thinking about it, no one around me seems to be suitable for Tianjin.
All the buying and selling of the Wenxuan is the foundation of whether Zhang Ru can really gain a foothold in the capital, everyone else can have something, and Xie Lun, who controls everything, must not have anything.
If something happens to Xie Lun, Zhang Ru will be unlucky, and he is also sorry for this Kanto man who used to be a catcher in Tai'an, and later handed over all his family to his care in order to be able to do things for himself.
The position of the commander-in-chief of Datong had been appointed by the imperial court, and Ma Wensheng, who had the most fierce opposition, was finally defeated by the attack of Wang Shu and Li Dongyang, the official of the palace examination papers, and Qiu Jun, a cabinet scholar.
Li Dongyang, the former waiter of the East Palace, regained again after Hongzhi was removed from service in the second year, which means that he has successfully stepped onto the real historical stage. In the future, Li Dongyang's development was out of control, which was also related to Zhang Ru's repeated strong recommendations.
In order to avoid suspicion, Ma Wensheng resigned from the post of secretary of the military department three times, and Emperor Hongzhi retained him three times.
Helpless, Ma Wensheng had to accept the reality and become a model of a second-class general.
At the same time, because Ma Xuan successfully became the chief soldier of Datong Town, Ma Wensheng's position in the DPRK and Central China is also rising. On the surface, it is the secretary of the military department, and the weight of speaking secretly has a faint tendency to be on par with Wang Shu, the secretary of the household department.
Li Min and his party in the capital completely died down, judging from the emperor's approval of Ma Xuan to take up the post of general soldier of Datong, Zhang Ru's recovery has become a foregone conclusion, and it is not that they can be useful if they attack it.
However, what is strange is that Zhu Youzhu did not blame Li Min, he just hung like this, and he never punished any member of Li Min and his party.
Rao is like this, there are still people who are unstable in their hearts who choose to change their ways, but Zhang Ru is not in the capital, and no one accepts this group of wall grasses for the time being.
The three thousand elite soldiers of the Soaring Cloud Cavalry were scattered in all directions, each looking for the backbone of the White Lotus Sect on the list through their own connections. These people are very active missionaries, scattered all over the Ming Dynasty, and it is not easy to find these people and persuade them to surrender.
However, Zhang Ru was not in a hurry at all, he did not think of completely eradicating the White Lotus Sect in just a few months, and to deal with the deep-rooted cult of the White Lotus Sect, he could only use the methods of both bloody and Huairou policies to finally completely assimilate these people.
In September of the third year of Hongzhi, the Tatar remnants who could not hold back the loneliness of Yajiao Mountain finally could not hold back their loneliness, and launched an attack on the surrounding villages on the night of the sixth day of the first lunar month.
The village, an empty village, had nothing but a few dilapidated thatched houses.
After Yajiao Mountain was occupied, when Zhang Ru decided to leave these Tartars dead or alive for the time being, there were already people from the Datong government who transferred all the people within thirty miles of the surrounding area.
The precautionary point is that one day when the Tartars of Yajiao Mountain have nothing to eat, they will plunder the surrounding people.
The futility of this attack made Blot, Dzekobe, and Alibu as disgusting as if they had eaten a stinky ****.
They did a lot of calculations, but they didn't expect that Zhang Ru deliberately let them stay in Yajiao Mountain.
Its purpose is self-evident, it is nothing more than to hold the bargaining chips, so that the courtiers in the court and the central government do not dare to attack easily.
You must know that Zhang Ru is now a general guarding the frontier, and he is guarding the frontier for the Ming Dynasty with his life. Whoever attacks him at this time means that he is attacking the emperor, which means that selfishness is greater than official affairs.
At this time, even if the courtiers wanted to make trouble from Ma Xuan and Jiang Wei, they didn't dare.
In Zhang Ru's barracks, where the thousands of households in Datong were stationed, Meng Fu knelt on one knee, holding a secret report that had just been taken out of Tiqi's arms, with an excited face: "My lord, the front line is urgent, the Tartars are attacking." ”
Zhang Ru took the secret report and glanced at it quickly, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a disdainful smile: "It seems that there is not much food on the mountain, otherwise these Tartars would not choose to do it at this time." ”
Meng Fu said happily: "Then can we do it?" ”
Zhang Ru smiled: "You seem to be very positive, this kind of thing, you can't rush it." ”
Meng Fu stood up and said, "My lord, don't you know, this tartar is within the border of my Ming Kingdom, and it is as uncomfortable as a needle piercing my heart. The sooner you pull it out, the sooner your subordinates will be comfortable. ”
Zhang Ru patted Meng Fu on the shoulder and said, "His heart is commendable, but he is too impatient." Now the Tartars are not hungry to the point of losing their strength, and if we attack in a big way, we will only add casualties. Every one of my Da Ming Erlang is a good hand, how can he die in the hands of a Tartar like this. Then let those Tartars stumble, and send an order to Ma Xuan, and tell all the brothers on the front line that no one should act rashly without my orders, and prepare for defense in case the Tartars attack in a big way. ”
Meng Fu bowed his head and responded: "The last general will obey the order." ”
"Where is Xiao Ano!" As soon as Meng Fu left, Zhang Ru shouted outside.
Xiao Anu pushed open the barracks door and walked in: "The end will be!" ”
"Immediately notify the general soldier of Datong Zhang, and ask him to select 3,000 light cavalry and 5,000 foot soldiers to stand by at the west gate of Datong."
"The last general obeys!"
After Xiao Anu went out, Zhang Ru's tone suddenly changed: "I said daughters-in-law, are you outside?" ”
The door was pushed open in a very rough way, and then the puffed Jiang Caiwei and the calm Su Qiqi appeared in front of Zhang Ru.
The aura of a superior in him vanished in an instant, and then he made a move that would make his subordinates stunned when they saw it.
I saw him bend down suddenly, walk quickly in front of the two girls with small steps like some fathers-in-law in the palace, fly together to close the barracks door, reach out and grab the hands of the two women, and say very flatteringly: "Daughter-in-law, that, now I don't have enough manpower in my hands, see if you can work hard for you to run." ”
Jiang Caiwei said angrily: "There are so many people under your command, why don't you ask them to find us!" I can tell you, I don't have a class and I am not the master of what you call and go. ”
Su Qiqi nodded approvingly: "That's it, you haven't given me an explanation until now what's going on with this girl Cai Wei, and I'll tell you, Zhang Wenxuan, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, maybe I'll leave tomorrow." ”
Zhang Ru said with a bitter face: "It's all a family, why don't you embarrass me so much!" Cai Wei, the people under my command, can't be trusted, those who can be trusted can't be used, and there are really few people who can really use it. This time there is some trouble, and I can't let outsiders know about it, so I have to trouble you.
Qiqi, I've already explained this, you always don't give up, you can't let me die! I'm in love with you, and it's only a matter of time before you enter the door anyway, but it's just a matter of getting things done first. ”
The two women snorted in unison.
Then Su Qiqi said: "Okay, I can just ask about anything else, but when you go back to the capital, you must make up for the last gift." A good wedding night, and finally dispersed the guests, how did you behave as a marquis. ”
Jiang Caiwei pouted: "Sister, what should I do!" ”
Zhang Ru begged: "Two aunts and grandmothers, let this go in advance!" After I take care of the things here, it's done, you two like to toss and toss as much as you like. ”
Su Qiqi said angrily: "I don't care, anyway, if you don't give me an explanation, I won't forgive you." ”
Zhang Ru was really a little congested, and he was not good at getting angry, because of the matter of the two women, he always felt a little indebted to Su Qiqi. After coming back, there was a long talk between them, and it was the long talk that night that made Zhang Ru's attitude towards the two daughters change 180 degrees.
He realized that he had really ignored their feelings before, and this incident made him feel extremely guilty. For their own sake, they didn't even care about Tang Sai'er. If he doesn't know how to cherish it like before, then he is really inferior to a pig and a dog.
His character itself is not a considerate character, but his changeable personality makes it impossible for ordinary people to guess what kind of person he is. The two girls knew, so they were able to prescribe the right medicine.
If this obedient appearance is seen by Zhang Ru's subordinates, they may have to laugh off their big teeth.
Seeing his hurried and helpless expression, Su Qiqi couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Okay, for the sake of your good attitude, I'll let you go this time." If you dare not be at home for ten days and half a month next time, Cai Wei and I will leave, anyway, it is not impossible to live without you. ”
Jiang Caiwei muttered in a voice that only she could hear: "I don't know who is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot when he can't see him." ”
Fortunately, the other two didn't hear it, so no one cared.
After making a fuss for a while, Su Qiqi took the initiative to ask: "Xianggong, what do you want us to do?" ”
Zhang Ruzheng said: "You have to help go to Fuzhou, Fan Tong doesn't know how is going over there, there has been no news in the past three months, I suspect something happened over there." ”
Jiang Caiwei's eyes widened: "Go to Fuzhou?" My sister just said that if you don't go home for ten days and half a month, we will leave, and you actually let us go to Fuzhou? ”
Su Qiqi was also displeased: "Xianggong, I know that you are doing things for the court, and you have your own ideals and revenge, but the concubine really doesn't want to leave." ”
Zhang Ru persuaded bitterly: "The trip to Fuzhou is related to the future life of my family, so you must go on this trip." Don't worry, in less than a month, I will be able to go to Fuzhou to meet you. ”
It's just that when he said this again, he didn't expect that the more than 20,000 Tatar cavalry in Yajiao Mountain would be so difficult. By the time he really arrived in Fuzhou, it was already four years of Hongzhi. Of course, that's all for later.
