Taking out yesterday's title deed, Yang He silently calculated the area of land he had purchased twice.

Yang He bought 60,000 mu of land in the Yanghe estuary area, and only 50,000 mu of land in the north of Funing County, but Zhang Fengqi gave Yang He the lake in the upper reaches of Xiangshan and Yanghe, with a total area of 130,000 mu, plus the land in the Yanghe estuary, a total of 180,000 mu.

After calculating this number, Yang He was really taken aback.

One mu of land is 667 square meters, and 180,000 mu is more than 12,000 square meters, which is equal to 120 square kilometers, which is equivalent to the area of a township. And Yang He only spent 13,000 taels of silver to buy so much land.

Yang He solemnly took the title deed into his arms, and he will show his strength on this land in the future.

Let Li Maochun invite Zhang Fengqi and others to a banquet, and Yang He will return to the post house by himself.

After returning to Funing County, Yang He learned that Zhang Mingxian had arrived, and he had brought a total of 500 soldiers with him, and he was stationed ten miles east of the city at this time.

Hearing that Zhang Ming had brought five hundred soldiers first, Yang He couldn't help but shake his head.

Yang He didn't know if Zhang Ming brought so many people on this trip was his own intention or Heiyunhe's meaning, but no matter who it meant, it was not Yang He's intention.

When Yang He asked Li Wei to send someone to pass the order, he made it very clear that Zhang Mingxian only brought 200 people, but Zhang Mingxian brought 500 people.

Zhang Ming must have thought that he had bought the land and asked him to bring people here in order to relocate the people, he thought that it would be easier to do things with more people, and if he brought more people, the relocation would be faster, so he brought 300 more people.

If Yang He's order did not specify the number of people, then Zhang Mingxian was understandable to do this, but Yang He clearly told Zhang Mingxian that he only brought 200 people, and Zhang Mingxian also brought more people, obviously not taking Yang He's words seriously.

Fortunately, Zhang Mingxian didn't know that he was going to fight with the officers and soldiers of the Yongping Guard, and if he knew that he was going to fight, he would probably be able to transfer all the troops.

asked Li Wei to send someone outside the city to invite Zhang Ming to enter the city, Yang He sat on a chair and thought silently.

Hei Yunhe, Zhang Mingxian and Li Maochun, these three people have nothing to say to themselves, but many times they can't pay attention to what they mean, and many things must be explained to them clearly before they can understand.

However, many things cannot be explained clearly, and can only be relied on by understanding.

Yang He sighed, Hei Yunhe and the others actually don't know how to be subordinates, they don't know what to do at all.

And only by knowing how to be a subordinate can you know how to be a boss.

If you will figure out the upper meaning, you will understand the lower meaning, one is the next, the other is the top, and the reason is actually the same.

After sitting for a while, Yang He asked Li Wei to go to Yicheng to arrange a few dishes and then scald a pot of wine.

Brotherly friendship, drinking a little wine is more conducive to livening up the atmosphere.

After a while, Yi Cheng came up with wine and food, and when he saw Yang He sitting alone, Yi Cheng smiled and said, "Mr. Yang Qian, do you want to find you a girl?" ”

Yang He was stunned when he heard this: "What girl are you looking for?" ”

Immediately knew that Yi Cheng was talking about the ** of the Qinglou.

Shaking his head, Yang He smiled and said, "Lord Yicheng, if I take the lead in finding the girl, can this soldier still be brought?" ”

Yi Cheng smiled: "What is this? Many officers have come here looking for girls. ”

"Oh? Many officers have looked for girls? Where is the officer? Yang Heqi said.

As he spoke, Yang He waved his hand: "Lord Yicheng, please take a seat, let's talk." ”

The post man hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be, the humble position is just a post man, where can you afford the word adult." Just stand and talk to Mr. Qian. ”

Yang He smiled: "Sit down, it's inconvenient to stand and talk, not to mention that I, the Qianzong, am not an adult, we are each other." ”

"If other Qianzong naturally can't afford to be an adult, but you, Qianzong, are a real adult, and what adults do, I have heard more than one person or two people say." Yi Cheng smiled.

"Who have you heard about me?" Yang Heqi said.

"O messenger!" Edom Road.

After a pause, Yi Cheng smiled and said: "The messenger who delivers a letter from outside the gate to the capital, and the messenger who delivers a letter from the capital to the outside of the gate, pass through the humble post here, or stay here for one night, or have a meal here, or change horses here, you have to stop for a while." ”

"Where are the messengers, and what do you say about me?" Yang He said with a smile.

Na Yi Cheng said with a smile: "One is a messenger sent by Luo Yiyi, the deputy chief soldier of Xiping Fort, saying that he went to the imperial court to move rescue troops, and that person had a meal here at Beizhi, and he chatted with him for a while, and then he talked about the war between Xiping Fort and Guangning, saying that you entered the Jianyu camp at night in Xiping Fort and set fire to the Jianyu grain and grass, which caused chaos in the Jianyu camp and the troops of Xiping Fort were able to evacuate. He also said that some of the things you did in Quang Ninh were really admired after listening to them. ”

Hearing that Yi Cheng said that the messenger entered Beijing to move rescue troops, Yang He knew that Luo had always seen that Xiong Tingbi did not bring reinforcements, so he sent a letter directly to the imperial court, hoping that the imperial court would send reinforcements, but unfortunately, until the end, the imperial court did not send a single soldier.

Sighing softly, Yang He picked up the flask and filled the wine glass, and then slowly sprinkled it on the ground.

Raising his eyes and seeing Yi Cheng's puzzled expression, Yang He sighed and said, "This is for Chief Luo Bing, General Luo was martyred." ”

Yi Cheng nodded: "I heard about it." ”

Seeing that Yicheng was still standing, Yang He pointed to the chair opposite: "Sit down, have a glass of wine with me." ”

The post man thanked him, picked up the wine jug and poured Yang He's wine glass full, and filled the wine glass in front of him, and then held the wine glass and said, "Lord Qian, I would like to give you a glass." ”

Yang He smiled and picked up the wine glass, raised it to Chong Yicheng, and then drank it all.

The man drank all the wine, and filled the glasses of the two of them before he sat down.

Yang He nodded and said with a smile: "Did any other messenger mention me?" ”

Yi Cheng said: "Later, General Luo also sent a messenger, saying that he was for you to repay your merits and ask for a seal. Then, a few days later, Hei Yunhe, the general of Xipingbao, also sent a messenger to Beijing to report to the imperial court that General Luo had been martyred. Here in the lowly position, they all talk about your merits. ”

Yang He nodded silently.

Looking at Yang He, the post suddenly said: "Mr. Yang Qian, I heard that the officials of the Liaodong Jingluo Mansion want to rectify you, and they sent people to Beijing to send a letter, saying that after your Xipingbao army occupied Guangning City, they swallowed the military salaries in the city privately, and distributed the military food in the city to the people. ”

Yang He's face froze: "When did it happen?" ”

Yi Cheng hurriedly said: "The night before yesterday, the messenger of the Liaodong Jingluo Mansion rested here for a while. ”

Yang He nodded, frowning in thought.

The day before yesterday, Yang He and others entered the customs the day before yesterday.

The officials of Liaodong Jinglufu must have suspected that the military salary of Guangning City might not have fallen into the hands of Jianjiao, but was brought back after seeing the soldiers of Guangning City driving so many carriages to withdraw.

But since they suspected that the military pay had been brought back, why didn't they inquire directly, but sent a letter to the capital?

After pondering for a while, Yang He finally guessed the purpose of the officials of the Liaodong Jingluo Mansion, these people actually didn't care who the military salary fell into, they just wanted to find an excuse to get away with it.

Guangning City was lost, although Xiong Tingbi and Wang Huazhen were mainly responsible, but it was impossible for them to be without responsibility as subordinates. Now that Xiong Tingbi and Wang Huazhen have been dismissed, it may be their turn next, so they must find a way to get rid of their responsibilities.

And if you want to get away with it, you must first weaken the merits of the defenders of Quang Ninh.

From the point of view of these people, if Guangning City is held by Luo Cheng and others, it can only highlight their incompetence. Because Luo has always been able to defend Guangning City with all his manpower, but so many of them abandon Guangning City, isn't it incompetent?

Therefore, they did not want Luo's troops to hold Quang Ninh City, on the contrary, what they most hoped for was that the defenders would be annihilated, so that there would be no proof of death, and then they could find all kinds of excuses to cover up the responsibility for the loss of Quang Ninh City.

In their minds, with Luo's men and horses and the remaining remnants of Guangning City, they would not be able to hold Guangning City in any case.

Unfortunately, the result was very different from what they expected, although the city was not held in the end, but the defenders held on to the city for more than ten days, and then nearly 2,000 soldiers retreated safely, and also evacuated a large number of civilians, in this case, no matter what excuses these officials made, they could not explain why they did not send troops to reinforce Quang Ninh.

Therefore, after they saw that the troops of Xipingbao returned to Shanhaiguan, they thought of fabricating charges for the defenders of Guangning City, and there was only one charge that could be assigned to the defenders, that is, embezzling military salaries.

As long as this crime is confirmed, they can say that the defenders are desperately defending the city for this money, and then the defenders will be wiped out even if they have great merit, and they will even be convicted.

In fact, if it is easier to get evidence of the defenders' private military rations, many of the ordinary people who enter the customs carry grain on their backs, where does this food come from? With a little cross-examination, evidence can be obtained.

However, under the circumstances at that time, the private distribution of military rations was nothing at all, after all, those people were the families of soldiers, and they could be prevaricated by making up a reason.

Only when the charge of embezzling military salaries is confirmed can this crime be added, and only then can the crime be added to the crime.

It's just that this case can't be investigated by them, but by the imperial court to send someone to investigate, so that the conviction will be high-sounding, so they will send a letter to Jingli.

After thinking about the joints, Yang He sighed softly, if the officials of the Ming Dynasty were like this, it would be the gods who came, and they would not be able to save the Ming Dynasty.

Seeing Yang He sighing, Na Yicheng asked with concern: "Mr. Yang Qian, are you worried that the imperial court will send someone to investigate?" ”

Yang He shook his head slightly.

If he didn't know about this matter in advance, and the imperial court suddenly sent someone to investigate and catch him off guard, he really didn't know how to deal with it, but now that he already knew about this matter and knew who was making small moves, Yang He naturally had a way to deal with it.

Seeing that Yang He was noncommittal, Na Yicheng suddenly said indignantly: "According to the humble position, Yang Qian doesn't have to deal with these people at all. They lost the city of Quang Ninh, you put down the rebellion, recover the city of Quang Ninh, those silver is equivalent to taking it from the hands of the rebels, you use this silver to reward the soldiers to buy land, you can use it as you like, who cares? ”
