Chapter 17 Defensive Officer Xu Zhongjun
Xinzhuang is not far from Dongjiazhuang, and after a few miles to the south, Zhuangbao has appeared in front of everyone's eyes! The person at the front is Wang Dou, I heard that he killed five Tartars alone, and he really looked extremely vicious......"
"That Wang Dou is openly carrying a woman behind him, isn't this a bit of that ......?"
"You're overdoing it, aren't you?"
In the midst of everyone's pointing, Wang Dou and the others came to the gate of the fort proudly, and the few sergeants guarding the gate obviously saw Wang Dou and a few people, all of them greeted each other affectionately, and even looked at the fattened horses under a few people with hot eyes. One of them asked Wang Dou and the others the reason for entering the fort, Wang Dou said, the envy in the eyes of several sergeants could not be concealed, this Wang Dou was originally a sergeant like them, and when he saw it, he was promoted to the general flag, look at himself, alas, this person is really angry compared to people.
Wang Dou and several sergeants said a few polite words, and gave each person some money, and the soldiers looked more affectionate, and even Wang Dou and others were exempted from checking the waist card, and directly let a few people enter the fort.
Han Zhong said proudly: "It seems that our brother is really famous in the castle, and even these guards give us face." ”
The people behind laughed, but Wang Dou was thinking, from the guards of this fortress gate, it could be seen that the garrison of the place was lax, if it was his own subordinates, it would be a decisive no.
All the way into the fort, all I saw were all kinds of eyes and discussions, in front of the 100 households on the East Street, several people got off the horse, Wang Dou was about to let the guards in front of the door report, at this time Zhang Gui's subordinate head Zhang Tanggong walked out.
Seeing Wang Dou, Zhang Tanggong greeted him with laughter, and he said: "It's really a coincidence, we just mentioned Brother Wang, Brother Wang came, you wait here, wait for my brother to report to the management team." ”
Wang Doushen gave a salute: "There is Brother Lao Zhang." ”
Zhang Tanggong pointed at Wang Dou and said angrily: "You and I are like our own flesh and blood, and to say this is to see the outside." ”
He strode in, and soon, he heard Zhang Gui's hearty voice coming, and then saw Zhang Gui striding out, he laughed and said, "Just as I was talking about Brother Wang, I saw that Brother Wang was coming."
……
When everyone arrived at the front of the hall, they saw two military attachés in the hall sitting and talking, and when they saw Zhang Gui, Wang Dou and others coming in, both of them looked at each other.
Wang Dou looked and saw a military attache sitting in the center, in his forties, wearing a thousand-household official uniform, with the Xiong Zhen embroidery pattern of a five-rank military attaché, wearing a delicate unicorn bronze medal around his waist, and his eyes were calm and soft. The man next to him was nearly forty years old, and he was wearing a costume of a thousand households.
Seeing everyone coming in, the thousand households stood up with a smile, and the thousand households next to them also stood up.
Zhang Gui hurriedly walked a few steps, he completely lost the coercion in front of Wang Dou and the others, the smile on his face seemed to be shaking, and he saluted respectfully to the thousand households: "Lord Xu, Wang Dou and a few other heroes have arrived." ”
The thousand households smiled and nodded, and Zhang Gui turned back to Wang Dou and the others: "Brother Wang, this is Lord Xu Zhongjun, the new defender of Shunxiang Fort, and this is Lord Du Zhen." Lord Xu and Lord Du came to our village in a busy schedule, this is the honor of Dongjiazhuang, you come to pay homage quickly. ”
Wang Dou didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to kowtow to Xu Zhongjun according to the sergeant's salute. Several people from the Han Dynasty were also very excited, and followed closely behind Wang Dou to pay homage.
Xu Zhongjun said softly: "Get up." ”
He stretched out his hand and led it falsely, like qigong, Wang Dou and the others stood up.
Xu Zhongjun carefully looked at Wang Dou and several people, and saw that several of them were all tigers and bears, with fierce expressions, and couldn't help but praise again and again: "If you are a hero, you are worthy of being a hero who fights against the Tartars!" ”
His voice was soft, his demeanor was quite elegant, and a sharp sword hung from his waist, but he had an awe-inspiring momentum, which was the majesty of power brought by being in a position for a long time. The deputy Qianhu Du Zhen next to him was full of arrogance, looking at Wang Dou and the others with a condescending momentum.
Zhang Gui said: "This is all under the command of Lord Xu and Lord Xu, and our Dongjiazhuang has such a great victory!" This official gave an order to reward morale, Wang Dou, you won the three grades, the seizure is not counted, and the promotion is awarded two levels, the reward is sixty taels of silver, and the silk is a table, you still need to work hard in the future, and live up to the appointment! ”
Wang Dou agreed loudly, he knelt down and took the waist card handed over by Xu Zhongjun one by one, the official uniform seal, the appreciation of silver silk and other things, and his heart was very happy.
Look at the things in your hands, this promotion is different, the total flag waist card is made of good copper and wood, and it is heavy in your hand. The Xinjian copper seal is also well-made, and the silk cloth is so comfortable to the touch.
There is also the reward silver in the hand, which is also the kind of fine and delicate gold and silver, twenty-five taels and one ingot, arc waist, and two stamps in the ingot. This kind of silver has always been in the treasury, so it is extremely well cast, with inscriptions, time, place, weight, silversmith, and casting officials, etc., and the so-called snowflake silver is like this.
However, at this time, Wang Dou got the reward of sixty taels of silver, and he originally reported that he was cut three levels, and it stands to reason that he should get the reward of ninety taels of silver, but the silver handled by the old Ming Dynasty must be deducted, and this time the military merits are happy, and it has been regarded as less deduction, and he has received as much as sixty taels of ninety taels of silver, which is very rare.
Looking at Han Chao and the others, they also had rewards one by one, and everyone was very happy, whether it was the waist card in their hands, or the official uniform seal, etc., they all looked at it over and over again, especially Qi Tianliang, who opened his big mouth and smirked, and even said that my old Qi also had this day.
Seeing the appearance of Wang Dou and the others, Xu Zhongjun and Zhang Gui all looked at each other and smiled, they could understand the mood of Wang Dou and the others, thinking that a few days ago, when they learned that they were promoted, their behavior was not much better than that of Wang Dou and others.
Xu Zhongjun smiled and said: "Okay, everyone will reward themselves, and it's not too early to see the time, Lord Zhang, isn't it time to set up a banquet?" ”
Zhang Gui hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, it's time to set up a banquet, come here, set up wine for me, and praise the heroes for the celebration wine!" ”
