Chapter 231: The smell of gunpowder in the greeting

Shanhaiguan as the last line of defense against the Later Jin at the end of the Ming Dynasty, not only built very majestic, but also the Ming Dynasty stationed heavy troops here, at the same time, it is also the residence of the Governor of Jiliao, becoming the most important line of defense against the Later Jin at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

This afternoon, there was an army outside the Shanhaiguan, there were about four or five hundred people, all of them were freshly dressed and angry, the soldiers in the city saw this group of people from afar, and hurriedly warned them, and the soldiers guarding the city were in place, and a group of cavalry drove out of the city quickly to find out the identity of the other party.

Fortunately, because the other party is also wearing the banner of the Ming Dynasty, it looks like a general of the Ming Dynasty, otherwise, the city gate would have been closed long ago.

Seeing the movements in the city, the group of cavalry stopped, drove out a horse in the team, and ran towards the cavalry in the city, and when they were more than fifty zhang away, they shouted loudly: "Wang Hu, the chief soldier of Dongjiang Town, has come to visit Governor Cao, we are from Dongjiang Town!"

Listening to the horseman's self-report, the cavalry who was running stopped, put on a welcome formation, stood on both sides, and then led the small flag towards Wang Dalun's team, and when he was ten zhang away from Wang Dalun, he slowed down his horse's speed, and respectfully hugged his fists and said: "Welcome to Wang Zong's army!" I don't know that General Wang arrived in advance, I'm waiting for a surprise! ”

Wang Dalun rode on the horse and said: "No need to be polite, I waited in a hurry, and I didn't report in advance, which frightened you!" ”

Cavalry Xiaoqi looked at Wang Dalun, who was about the same age as himself, and couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly, he is so young, and he is really vigorous in doing things, Cao Dacai just sent out the invitation letter, and it was estimated that it would take two or three days to arrive. I didn't expect to come early.

Wang Dalun motioned to his soldiers to show Xiaoqi the voucher, and then said with a smile: "There has been nothing to do recently, Governor Cao has been kindly invited, and the wind has been strong recently, so I came early." This brother, have we confirmed our identities, can you please help me pass it through? ”

Xiao Qi hurriedly said: "Where the small duty is, don't blame the adults, adults, please enter the city with the lowly duties!"

Wang Dalun naturally nodded in agreement. Following Xiaoqi's horse, he slowly entered the city. While walking, I looked at it, and it really deserved to be an important town guarding the capital division, looking at such a high city wall. There are so many soldiers. It is no wonder that the Manchu Qing Dynasty still relied on Wu Sangui to dedicate the city. can go south to the Central Plains!

When Wang Dalun was looking around the city curiously like a hillbilly, he saw a group of cavalry driving from the opposite side. As soon as the cavalry approached, he said respectfully: "Governor Cao's standard battalion has come to greet General Wang!" Please ask General Wang to follow me and wait, Governor Cao is already waiting outside the yamen! ”

"I'm tired of Governor Cao! Let's go! Wang Dalun said politely, signaling the person in the body to speed up.

As soon as the soldiers of the standard camp said this, Mo Yifeng, who was following Wang Dalun's side, moved his mouth, and wanted to say something, but he didn't open his mouth after the most reluctance, and his heart was full of shock and envy.

After Mo Yifeng took the initiative to surrender to Wang Dalun by his uncle Shen Shikui, as Wang Dalun's act of repaying the favor, he was also arranged by Wang Dalun to serve as the captain of his own personal army, which made him the envy of the Dongjiang Army again, because everyone knew that his future would be bright in the future.

After Mo Yifeng came to Wang Dalun's side, he did his best and quickly got Wang Dalun's approval, so this time Wang Dalun's trip to Guan Ningjun brought him here, because he used to come with Mao Shuai often and was familiar with him.

I don't want to be a person who often follows Mao Shuai over, Mo Yifeng's heart is already full of shock, when Mao Shuai came in the past, how could he enjoy this kind of treatment, not to mention that the standard camp came to greet him, even if the governor of Jiliao came to the gate to greet him, it was impossible, after all, according to the rank, the general army was not as high as the governor.

Wang Dalun probably didn't expect this, Cao Wenheng, as a civil official and the governor of Jiliao, could greet him at the door, which is a treatment that only his boss can enjoy! It is estimated that Wang Dalun is still in the dark, thinking that everyone is not subordinate, so it is not the same thing.

Mo Yifeng's heart is full of pride at the moment, where did our Dongjiang Army have this kind of treatment before, only when Wang Dashuai came to have this kind of treatment, it seems that his uncle's choice is right, following Wang Dalun, it is really promising!

When he arrived at the door of the governor, sure enough, Cao Wenheng had already brought all the officials in the governor's palace to greet him, no matter how ignorant Wang Dalun was, he also knew that it was time to get off the horse to salute, he jumped off the horse and said very politely: "Governor Cao personally greets him, Wang is sincerely afraid!" I really can't get it! ”

Cao Wenheng looked at Wang Dalun's posture, and complained in his heart, I have brought people to greet you, you are a careless grandmother, this is a very heavy etiquette, can the general soldiers of Dongjiang Town get me such treatment before?

But now it's different from the past, and the Dongjiang Army has proud capital! Not only did he kill two thousand Tartars, but he also beat back the emperor Taiji who drove the expedition, and recovered Jinzhou by taking advantage of the situation, and now the Dongjiang army finally no longer has to live on the island, and finally has a place to settle, which is all ability!

Cao Wenheng thought of this, and sighed in his heart, this is all about strength, without strength, who cares about you! He said with a smile on his face: "Our Guan Ning Army is quite impressed by the recent victory of Dongjiang Town, hearing your arrival, not only the old man is curious, but even the generals are curious, so everyone came out to see what the Dongjiang Tiger looks like!" ”

"False praise, false praise! That's the soldiers' lives, and it has nothing to do with me!" Wang Dalun said very modestly.

"Look, Mr. Wang is not only young and promising, but also humble, which really makes me admire!" Cao Wenheng praised with a smile.

"Oh, Governor Cao, if you continue to boast, I will find a crack in the ground to drill down! This time, I came here to communicate with you more, and I am embarrassed to ask for advice when you say that! Wang Dalun hurriedly said modestly.

"I said, Lord Governor, it's so hot now, let's not stand here and say, General Wang is here, let him roast in the sun, be careful to let him complain in the future that our Guan Ning Army will not treat people!" I saw a man in his forties standing on the side speak.

When Cao Wenheng heard this, his face changed, and he continued to show a smile and said: "What Mr. Zu said is very true, you look at me, I patronized and talked, and I forgot to invite guests in, Mr. Wang, please go in and drink tea!" ”

Wang Dalun saw it, and thought in his heart, I had heard that the Guanning army was dominant, and now it is almost too big, it seems that this evaluation is not wrong at all, Cao Wenheng is also the boss no matter what he says, and he is the first person in the Jiliao region, as a subordinate, you don't even give this face, it's too domineering.

Wang Dalun thought so in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "You are warmly received, Wang dares to complain so much, only flattered, but you are like this, I will have to be cheeky in the future, don't dislike me!"

Wang Dalun then turned his head and said to the general who spoke: "This should be the famous ancestral general soldier, hey, I have heard of your prestige for a long time, and I have long wanted to see your honorable face." When I saw it today, it was really brave and good at fighting, and he was famous, General Ancestor, I would like to ask you for advice later! ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Zu Da Shoupi replied with a smile, and then said without yin or yang: "Compared with Wang Zongbing, where do I dare to call it prestigious, your Wang Zongbing can recover Jinzhou, this is a great achievement, I will stay in this city all day long, just don't lose the soil, where do I dare to call it good at war!" ”

It seems that you have recovered Jinzhou by yourself, and some people are not pleasing to the eye, your sister, you still have a jealous face, the court supports you with so much silver a year, you are not angry, and you blame others? Wang Dalun was annoyed in his heart, the smile on his face also faded, and he said lukewarmly: "It's just a fluke!" It's just a soldier's life!"

"Fluke? There are no flukes in the army! Mr. Wang, if you hold this mentality, you will suffer a big loss in the future, this time you can win by luck, but not necessarily next time! So I advise you to be on the safe side in the future and don't be so aggressive! Zu Dashou said very politely.

"Well, teachable!" Wang Dalun replied lightly, he is too lazy to talk to Zu Dashou now.

"And you will send troops in the future, it's best to talk to us, it's cool for you to rob North Korea this time, but it makes us scared, in case you are really taken by Houjin, our pressure will be heavy!" I didn't expect Zu Dashou to rely on his qualifications, and said very politely.

Still? Wang Dalun was even more annoyed in his heart, I didn't bother to argue with you, but you kicked your nose in the face? You put on the appearance of a veteran general in the army to teach me a lesson, are you really bad for you? Don't look at the battles you have fought before, how many victories there are, just defeat and defeat all day long, if I don't have the face to mix up, it's really shameless.

Wang Dalun decided to give Zu Dashou some color to see, so he said lightly: "There is no way, the Dongjiang army is poor, so poor that there is only one rotten life, in order not to starve to death, we have to take the initiative to attack, if we don't rob it, won't we starve to death!" ”

"I really envy General Soldier!" Wang Dalun stared at Zu Dashou's face, and said very politely: "If our Guan Ning Army has so much silver from the imperial court every year, I won't think about taking any risks and staying comfortably all day long, who doesn't want to live this kind of life!" ”

"What did you say?" Zu Dashou was angry, everyone could hear the ridicule in Wang Dalun's mouth, this was sarcastic that they were holding the silver of the imperial court and did not dare to fight, although this is the case, but who would admit that at this moment, not only Zu Dashou, but the rest of Guan Ningjun looked at Wang Dalun with unkind faces.

"It's hot, go in and say, go in and say! Everyone drink some tea, defeat the fire! Cao Wenheng saw that there was about to conflict, and hurriedly opened his mouth to stop it. (To be continued......)
