Chapter 515: Qi Hu knocks on the door
Wang Ben is solid in his heart, and he is naturally unwilling to advance and retreat with the traitors of this strict party, but at present, killing Wang Zhi is the first priority, and everything else can be pushed back. Anyway, the officialdom is laughing at each other, it is nothing more than hypocrisy and wrongdoing, plotting their own plans, and when they find the right time, they will give the other party a fatal knife. Therefore, he raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "Yan Xiaoxianggong said very much, now the great enemy is now, I am afraid that the Japanese will plunder the southeast in a few days, the two are a governor of Zhejiang's direct military affairs, and the other is responsible for inspecting the southeast. ”
Hu Zongxian scolded in his heart, you old ghost actually wanted to put the responsibility on our heads in a few words, and he shook himself clean, which is really shameless. But now is not the time to turn their faces, everyone is acting with each other, and he also raised his glass and said: "Borrowing the king's direct finger to Jiyan, I only hope that our army will succeed in the first battle, wipe out all the Japanese invaders, and return me to the Ming Dynasty a Haiyan River Qing." ”
Although this banquet has its own intentions, on the surface, it is a heart-to-heart appearance, and it is enough to eat until the second watch. Hu Zongxian took advantage of the wine to invite a few colleagues to the flower boat and have a good time. Zhou Bofu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was about to go, but out of nowhere, a cold snort came, and he was immediately frightened and even half of the wine woke up, and he was busy saying that he was unwell and couldn't drink too much, so he had to rest early.
The Sai Zhaojun next to Wang Bengu heard that Wang Bengu was going to the flower boat to have fun, but instead of being jealous, he actively introduced that he had a few good sisters who could be invited to serve the master. Yan Hong looked at it and secretly envied it, and said in his heart: It would be good when I could enjoy this treatment, Xia Zisu was leaving. She also warned me not to beat her sister's idea. It's all the same people. Why is this such a big gap? However, Wang Bengu is concerned about Wang Zhi after all. I didn't dare to leave my post without permission, so I pushed it off seriously. In the end, it was Hu Zongxian and Yan Hong who went to live happily.
In the early morning of the next day, Yan Hong woke up from a hangover, and the boatlady beside him carefully served him to dress neatly, rinse his mouth and clean his face, and prepare a few delicate snacks and a pot of fragrant tea for breakfast. The boat lady also knew that last night's benefactor was worth a lot. Therefore, the service is very attentive, and I only hope that the nobles will be satisfied, and that they can be good, and it is also a destination. When he used it too early, the boat lady replied shyly: "Lang Jun, the concubine also has a few handkerchiefs to be handed over, and she is a sister." If Lang Jun is willing to take me to be good, they all know the rules. ”
Yan Hongzhi said that at this time, in the green building in the south, there was a custom called sleeping brother-in-law. It is a deed of worship sisters, if there is a good person. Then those unconscionable girls will have to sleep with this man who is a good sister. His name is Sleeping Brother-in-law. He thought of Xia Shisu in his heart. I didn't dare to provoke this boat lady, so I just smiled, rewarded a few golden beans casually, and then turned back to the governor's yamen, and when the yamen was already in the morning. Hu Zongxian had already returned to the office, and saw dozens of local businessmen invited by Hu Zongxian to discuss the remuneration matters.
Yan Hong saw that he was talking about serious things, and he couldn't help much, so he didn't bother and went back to his room. But seeing Qi Jiguang standing outside the door, when he saw Yan Hong coming, he hurriedly ran over, lifted his robe and saluted: "The last general has seen Qincha!" ”
Yan Hong didn't know what was important when this Qi Laohu came to visit, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to help. When the two entered the house, a guard offered tea, and Yan Hongcai asked: "Qi Vice Rong is not under Hu Dashuai's tent to obey orders, why do you come to this official?" ”
Qi Jiguang said with a smile: "Back to Qincha's words." Dashuai is now discussing the matter of co-payment, this kind of thing is the most ridiculous, I am afraid that he will not be busy without half a day. After noon, the last general will go to the great commander again to ask for money for the brothers, and it will be too late. Originally, the old man and nobleman were busy, and the last general should not come to bother, but this matter is urgent, and the last general has to come. ”
Yan Hong said: "General Qi has something to say, as long as this official is within his ability, he will never shirk." ”
Qi Jiguang didn't speak, he first took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed them to Yan Hong. Look carefully, all of them are silver tickets, but the denomination of this silver ticket is large and small, and the stacks are wrinkled. Yan Hong said: "General Qi, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Nothing. Historically, when the governor arrived, the local government should have a share of filial piety. We don't dare to disobey the rules. It's just that some time ago, the businessman made trouble and refused to cooperate, and the money was really not very loose, and this money was also collected from the east and west, and the amount was limited, and I hope the old man will not dislike it. When this battle is over, the bounty will come down, and the amount owed will be made up."
Yan Hong pushed the silver ticket and said, "Who does General Qi think of me?" I Yan asked myself that I dare not call myself honest, but I can't take your money for selling my life. I know your General Qi's net worth, I am afraid that this money will have to be made up by the salaries and food expenses of the two battalions of the new army, and if I take such money, I will not be able to do it. You put away the silver ticket, and if you have anything to say, as long as I can, I will never refuse. If you have to give a gift, then you have to walk and find someone else. ”
Qi Jiguang saw that the other party's demeanor didn't seem to be fake, so he had to take back the silver ticket and said: "I really can't take this money, it's my old relative's debt." I should have wanted to find a few more stunning beauties, making beds and quilts for Qincha, but between the eagerness, there is nowhere to find, Qincha rest assured, this Jiangnan people are outstanding, there are more beauties, I will find a few hearty ones for you to bring back to Beijing. ”
Yan Hong said: "General Qi, don't beat around the bush. I want a beauty, as long as I say a word, naturally there are people who will do it for me, but I don't have to bother you, General Qi. Just say, what you're going to do. It's your business and my business, we're guys on the same boat, and we're here to do so much. ”
Qi Jiguang listened to Yan Hong's cordial words, so he boldly said: "Don't hide it, the military situation in the past few days has become more and more urgent, and I am afraid that this time I will really move the Japanese Kou." The commander meant that the last general would lead two battalions of soldiers and horses to protect the safety of Qincha. Of course, this is a great thing, and the general will not dare to disobey it.
But as soon as I came, my two battalions of soldiers and horses, well-trained, were just thrown to the front to kill the bold Japanese bandits, so that they could be used. Second, the court has always had the heaviest decapitation, if a battle is defeated, not a single head will be killed, and my recruits will have no reward. They are all mountain people and miners in Zhejiang, and their families are very hard. Nowadays, the men stay up in the camp to earn a few life money, and the family will not starve to death, but in the future they will always have to go to the provinces to fight, if there is no overnight food in the family, how can they settle down to work for the court. After he said these words, he looked at Yan Hong cautiously, just afraid that the other party's Hades personality would attack, and he would not be able to maneuver.
Yan Hong also understood at this time. Hu Zongxian was worried that he would make a mistake when he started a war. It was decided to allocate the two battalions of Qi's army, which had the strongest combat effectiveness, to his own guard troops. Then think about it, you can also know that when the time comes, you will definitely arrange yourself in the rear, and maybe you will have to move to Nanjing. Then it will be guarded by two battalions of new troops, which can be guaranteed to be foolproof. In this way, even if the front line loses the battle, relying on this relationship, he can let himself pull him.
This kind of arrangement is of course no loss for Qi Jiguang personally. It is actually an honor to be a guard of the Chincha. If it is said that the knot is good, and Qin Cha is happy, he is specially promoted, then no matter what the front-line war is, Qi Jiguang himself can soar. If the front line wins, Qi Jiguang's merits will inevitably be added to the fold. Hu Zongxian dispatched it like this, and he looked at Qi Jiguang differently and vigorously supported him.
However, it seems that this Qi Dashuai is not satisfied with this kindness. "It's not my wish to be a marquis, I only wish the sea to be flat." Qi Jiguang's means of dealing with the world as an official may not be called how upright and upright, but his goal in life is indeed to better serve the Ming Dynasty loyally, destroy the enemy, and stabilize the border, rather than simply promoting himself to become an official and making a fortune. Therefore, in the face of the opportunity to fight the Wakos, how could he be content to be a risk-free escort for the Chincha?
Yan Hong saw that Qi Jiguang actually took the initiative to push off this fat meat, and voluntarily gnawed hard bones, he couldn't help but admire the bearing of this famous general, and hurriedly said: "General Qi is loyal to state affairs, and this matter will be left to me." When I go back, I will go to Hu Dashuai for an interview, and you must always have a fight and make meritorious contributions. It's just that I don't know how many people and horses have come this time, and General Qi can be sure of victory? ”
Qi Jiguang said: "It's not the last general's boast, there are more than 6,000 recruits in the two battalions, all of which are trained by me. But if you encounter that 8,000 Japanese bandits, you will definitely win a great victory. Even if it is a real widow who jumps more than a foot and slashes in the wind, it is not a problem. In addition, this time, the handsome set aside another 500 fast guns, which gave us more confidence. ”
Yan Hong's own use of soldiers was mediocre, and he didn't dare to dictate and interfere with the command of these famous generals, so he pretended to say: "In this way, I am relieved." If there are any deficiencies in the new army's food and salary equipment, you just have to say it clearly and let Hu Dashuai make up for it. ”
Qi Jiguang and Yan Hong said these words, and seeing that this Lord Qincha had no fight, the more he talked, the more he went up, he also eliminated the barrier, and said: "Thank you for your care." Our two battalions of the new army have never been short of food and salaries, and their ordnance is also sufficient, so it doesn't matter. But Brother Yu is a little inconvenient. Although he was brave in battle, his temperament was a little rushing, and he also had some misunderstandings with Hu Dashuai. I also hope that the old man will not be surprised. ”
Yan Hong has been in contact with him in the past few days, and his impression of Yu Dayou has been extremely bad. Especially since I used to recruit the Japanese and open the sea as a secret to rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty and enrich the country and strengthen the people, I naturally want to hear everyone say that it is good to open the sea, open the sea is good, and it is good to come. But this famous historical general with a heavy army in his hands kept saying that opening the sea may not be useful, and it will not be good for the Japanese to recruit peace. Regardless of whether it is reasonable or not, it always makes Yan Hong's heart very unhappy.
He also gradually understood that in history, those traitorous ministers who slipped around and slapped horses always lived better than loyal ministers. After all, there is a person in front of you all day long, saying things you hate to hear, doing things that annoy you, how can you be full of affection for him? (To be continued......)
