Zhu Changyuan nodded, glanced at the three of them, and finally subdued them, first solved their internal contradictions, and dealt with external enemies, it was much easier to say.

He looked at the tallest of the three and asked, "What is this strong man called?" ”

The third smiled honestly, showed two rows of white teeth, and said, "If you go back to the general manager, my name is Li San." ”

"Li San?"

"Yes."

After some understanding, Zhu Changyuan knew the details of the three people, they and the more than 300 people under his command were all subordinates of Mao Wenlong, the general soldier of the Dongjiang River, and they were stationed on Phi Island before, after Mao Wenlong's death, he wandered around the sea, chasing the sea as a thief, and was not recruited by the imperial court until half a year ago and incorporated into Ningyuan City.

The three of them are all masters of naval warfare, and they are also extremely familiar with this sea area in the southeast of Liaoning. However, fighting on land is not very good, to be honest, compared with those personal soldiers under Jin Guofeng, three hundred people can't beat one hundred. Not to mention the invincible cavalry of the Qing army.

Zhu Changyuan couldn't help but sigh, as for wanting to burn the cavalry with fire again, it was impossible, this kind of thing was not missing from the right time and place, and it could only be done once.

The sun is rising, and the soldiers under the command of each general are defending the city tower according to the territory planned by the whole city, although there is no enemy attack now, they must also defend the city every day, and each unit is responsible for a piece, and where there is a problem, the general or even the garrison will be held accountable.

Guarding the city, Yan Hong naturally arranged it, and Zhu Changyuan took his two cronies Po Yu and Ma Hai around the city tower for a while, and then stopped in his own defense area to chat with the soldiers.

came and went, and became familiar with the whole team of soldiers.

However, with the deepening of his understanding, Zhu Changyuan also learned about the flaw in the composition of this unit, that is, the three hundred people are all commanded by one person, and some of them have a feeling that they are too big to control and difficult to control, not because the people below do not listen to orders, but because there are too many people and orders are difficult to convey downwards.

In modern society, more than 300 people are almost the strength of a regiment, and when fighting, there are not only regiment commanders, but also company commanders, platoon commanders, and squad commanders below. The command and system are complete, unlike here, where a general does almost everything.

An ingenious idea slowly formed in his mind.

At this time, Wu Yinglong at the head of the city suddenly walked over with a few personal soldiers, and saw that Zhu Changyuan didn't say a word, and ordered the people around him to tie him up first.

"General Wu, what are you doing here?"

Zhu Changyuan did not resist, and Wu Yinglong, as his boss, could not resist violently. Having said that, it is necessary to resist the beating of this dog's day, and it cannot be in front of everyone, this is a crime, and it is a rebellion to put it seriously.

"What? Take away the good deeds you did yourself, and hand them over to the chief soldier. ”

A few people led people away with a fierce attitude, pushing and shoving Zhu Changyuan.

Yan Hong, Sun Erleng and Li San next to him went up, and said with a smile on their faces: "Lord Garrison must have some misunderstanding, the general manager just came yesterday and didn't do anything......

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wu Yinglong's sneer: "Why, Lao Yan, I haven't seen you for a day, and I have become someone's dog." Don't forget, this Ningyuan City is now the world of my Wu family, even the Governor, so I have to give my little uncle seven points of face. ”

Ignoring the crowd, he took Zhu Changyuan down the city wall.

Ningyuan City, the length of the east, west, north and south is about the same, almost less than three hundred zhang, there is eight hundred meters, and the one sitting in the middle is the governor's palace.

At this time, in addition to Wu Aheng, the governor of Jiliao, there was another person who lived in the governor's mansion, that is, the commander-in-chief of the three armies of Ningyuan City, that is, the chief soldier Wu Sangui.

Wu Yinglong escorted Zhu Changyuan all the way to the Governor's Palace, and then drove him into the Governor's Mansion and came to a high platform.

There was a small pavilion on the high platform, and only two people could be heard talking, but no one could be seen.

"Governor Wu, I'll give you another drink."

"Hahaha, uncle, I'm very happy that you can come to Ningyuan City, this time the imperial court awards, you rose from the position of deputy chief soldier to the chief soldier, and also brought your six thousand Guan Ning iron horses, the burden on my body was suddenly loosened, thanks to you." This is a middle-aged man's unique voice, full of energy, I think it should be the Governor Wu.

Another voice, although also extremely loud, but not so vicissitudes, sounded less than thirty years old, and said: "Wherever and wherever everyone is serving the country, regardless of each other." This Guanning Iron Cavalry is the army of the imperial court, and I, Uncle Wu, dare not be named. However, since you took office, your Excellency Governor, you have really done a great job in sorting out the situation in Liaodong. ”

Uncle Wu, isn't that Wu Sangui?

Zhu Changyuan secretly thought to himself, Changbo is Wu Sangui's character, but it's a pity that the other party's place is too high, even if he raises his head, he can only see a corner of the pavilion, not the people inside.

"Governor Wu, Lord Commander-in-Chief, the humble general has already brought the criminal Zhu Changyuan here."

After Wu Yinglong finished speaking, he made a half-kneeling salute to the two people who could not be seen above

"Your Excellency, would you like to have another drink?" Wu Sangui said.

Wu Aheng's heavy voice came: "No, no, I'm old, and I'm a little too strong to drink, not as good as when I was galloping on the battlefield." At that time, I slept in the same barracks with your old man, hey! ”

The two chatted a few more words, as if they had forgotten the people below, and after a long time, Wu Sangui asked, "Who is down there?" ”

Wu Yinglong finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The inferior general Wu Yinglong took the prisoner Zhu Changyuan to accept the crime. ”

Wu Sangui snorted and whispered to the governor: "It's a new general, he took the lead in making trouble last night to ask for military salaries, and he was still hungover in the barracks, according to the Ming military order, he should be beheaded!" ”

Wu Sangui said it very easily, as if he didn't pay attention to Governor Wu's words to kill a chicken.

Hmph, Zhu Changyuan snorted coldly in his heart, he had already hated Wu Sangui.

It seems that you don't want to be a traitor anymore, and Lao Tzu will fulfill you sooner or later.

Regardless of whether Wu Sangui was deceived by Wu Yinglong or not, just because he was going to kill me without asking, Lao Tzu will never allow you to live to be the king of Yunnan.

Governor Wu smiled and said: "Uncle, you may have been deceived, Gu Bendu knows, this Zhu Changyuan not only did not take the lead in making trouble, but also arrested the person who took the lead in making trouble, and invisibly quelled a dispute, which can be said to have made a great contribution." As for you saying that you have a drinking hangover, he is the first time to come to the barracks, and those who don't know are not guilty, and besides, looking at the face of the King of Bohai over there, is it good to spare him once? ”

Wu Sangui laughed: "It's me who is in love, since this Zhu Changyuan has also made meritorious contributions, I don't care about him." ”

Governor Wu pondered for a while, fully considered the relationship between all aspects, and then saw Wu Sangui retreat, and said: "Although he has made meritorious service, the hangover military camp must still be investigated, so let's let him go to the front line and go to the Daling River to garrison troops?" ”

The tone of inquiry, but Wu Sangui couldn't disagree, so he had to say: "It's okay, spring is almost over, Jianyu is not calm, and often sends small forces to plunder, so that they can go over to garrison troops to defend, and have a long experience." ”

"Okay, just according to what the eldest uncle said, you go down." Governor Wu said: "Zhu Changyuan will take your team and go to Daling River to guard the border from now on, and it is a real hero to defend the family and the country." ”

Zhu Changyuan respectfully bowed to the pavilion and said, "Thank you, Lord Governor, for not killing you." ”

Wu Aheng said: "Hehe, I also thanked Mr. Wu." ”

Zhu Changyuan originally had no good impression of Wu Sangui, a traitor seeking glory, and he was a relative of Wu Yinglong, so the two worked together to rectify themselves, and they didn't listen to Wu Aheng's words at the moment, and said: "My subordinates don't thank traitors." ”

There was no response from above for a long time, and Wu Sangui's face was not much better. Zhu Changyuan is a person who can't afford to lose,

After finishing speaking, he shook it easily, flipped the two soldiers who controlled him to the ground, and walked away.
