As a traverser, the biggest difference between Zhang Ke and the officials of this era is that he has no shelf, and he is young, so he can easily mingle with the soldiers, talk and laugh, and have no restraints.

The hot, thick porridge washed away the mildew in the stomachs, and the soldiers' faces lit up.

Zhang Ke suddenly laughed and said, "Brothers, I heard others say that the Jurchen soldiers are invincible, is this true?" ”

At the mention of this, many people lowered their heads, and their faces were inevitably a little ashamed.

"My lord, the Jurchen soldiers are indeed powerful, they have good weapons, strong armor, and war horses, I, I ...... Ay! ”

A few weather-covered veterans lowered their heads, eager to stick their heads in their crotches.

Just when the big guys were silent, suddenly a young man stood up from the back of the line, not tall, but very strong.

"My lord, others don't dare to say it, but if you give us the head, I won't be afraid of building slaves and dare to fight with them!"

Zhang Ke couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'm not that powerful, am I?" ”

"No, my lord, you let the little one eat enough and pay back five taels of silver. I sent the money to my mother, and I sued her, as if I hadn't given birth to this son in my life! What is there to be afraid of Jiannu, they are not three-headed and six-armed monsters, and if they give up more than a hundred catties, I don't believe that they can't look down on a head! ”

"Well said!"

Many young and vigorous soldiers slapped their chests loudly, eager to let Zhang Ke be their chief soldier.

There were two hundred presidents who couldn't help but say to Zhang Ke: "My lord, it's not that the big guy is greedy for life and afraid of death, but this is not enough to eat and wear, and the weapon in his hand is not as good as a burning stick, let us fight!" Once killed, twice killed, and on the third occasion, the big guy can only flee from the shadows! ”

Zhang Ke listened to the big guy's words and nodded vigorously. Although after the defeat of Salhu, the morale of the Ming army has not been defeated, if the elite is lost after the battle of Shenyang Liaoyang, it will be hopeless!

"The brothers said well, I am just a commander at the moment, and I have no luck to lead the big guy into battle to kill the enemy. However, I will build a yì to Lord Hong to ensure the military rations of the big guys, so that everyone has the capital to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions! ”

Zhang Ke and every soldier greeted each soldier and put the money into the hands of each soldier. I was busy until the middle of the night, my legs were about to break, and the flesh on my face was stiff.

However, Zhang Ke knew that it was not time to rest, so he came to Hong Fu's tent, and the teacher was reading in front of the oil lamp at this time.

"Teacher, you keep holding back the scroll, which really makes the disciple admire?"

"Hehehe, Yongzhen, guess what the teacher is looking at?"

"How can this be guessed? Either the Analects or Mencius? ”

Hong Shiki smiled slightly: "After the imperial examination." I never flipped it again. ”

Yes!

There is no difference between the current readers and the future generations, the Four Books and the Five Classics are like tutorial books for the exam, and after the exam, it is too hard to wipe the buttocks.

"That's Lao Tzu. Or is it the Diamond Sutra, the Huayan Sutra? ”

Zhang Ke saw the teacher shaking his head, and asked in surprise: "It's not Journey to the West, Water Margin, right?" ”

"It's a little bit side. It's Qi Jiguang's new book! Hong Shiki put the book on the table.

Zhang Ke almost dropped his jaw in shock, scratched his head and smiled: "Teacher, you really want to be both civil and military!" ”

"It's just a drop in the bucket. Back then, Qi Jiguang was able to sweep the desert, even Li Chengliang had made many military exploits, how did he get to now, Wen Tian was martial and frolic, and he couldn't even deal with the slaves, it was really embarrassing! Is it true that the stars will fall, and the sky will not bless? ”

What Hong Fuyi said may also be the question of most Ming Dynasty scholars.

"Teacher, the disciple has the courage to say a word, Qi Jiguang's training method is clearly written, as long as the food is sufficient and the training is hard, within three or two years, it may not be impossible to create a new Qi family army! I just talked to the soldiers, and they're not all wretched! Put yourself in their shoes, if I were wearing tattered armor, holding a rusty sword, and eating colorful rice, I wouldn't be able to fight hard! ”

Hong Shiki nodded, and suddenly smiled: "Yongzhen, this is why you want to enter the guard, right?" But as you said, it takes time to train soldiers, are these soldiers available in front of you? ”

This battalion is Li Guangrong's subordinates, and at this time Li Guangrong is leading a cadre of soldiers to inspect Fengjibao and other places. Taking advantage of Li Guangrong's absence, swallowing a battalion of men and horses is just right to expand its strength. After all, the biggest help at the moment He Shixian was arranged by Xiong Tingbi in Shenyang, and there were no available soldiers at hand, so how could he investigate the case and eliminate the disadvantages!

Zhang Ke thought about it carefully and said, "Teacher, the disciple thinks that these people are available, and they should strike while the iron is hot. The food and wages have been given, and it is best to allocate a batch of ordnance to them, at least to capture the hearts of the army. As long as you take Li Guangrong, a battalion of men and horses will be yours! ”

Hong Shiki stood up and walked to the door of the tent, looking outside, lighting the lights, and from time to time there was a noise.

"It's not that Hong is aggressive, he really has to do it!"

……

The next day, Xiong Tingbi convened the civil and military to discuss affairs, Zhang Ke was not qualified to participate, he could only wait for news in the class room. Hong Shiki and Huang Ziqiao entered the lobby together.

Hong Fu first reported to Xiong Tingbi and said: "Qi Yu Jinglu, with the assistance of Zhang Yanshi, he has borrowed enough food and salary, and the army has been attached to praise the virtue of the imperial court. In addition, the lowly government has sent personnel to investigate the culprits of incitement to pay trouble, and I believe that the results will be achieved soon! ”

It's done!

The civil and military forces present all looked at Hong Fu with a surprised face, Xiong Tingbi obviously ordered that the yamen were not allowed to help, and the time limit was three days, everyone thought that Hong Fu was in trouble, but in just two days, he got things done, which is really a big deal!

Hearing Hong Shibi's words, Xiong Tingbi's face darkened, he just snorted in his nose and didn't say anything else.

At this time, Huang Ziqiao suddenly stood up and said with a smile: "Xiong Dashuai, as a royal historian, just arrived in Liaoyang, it happened to be a major event, and he didn't dare to slack off, he investigated overnight, and there were some problems, and he wanted to report to Dashuai!" ”

"Hmmm! Go ahead! ”

"Yes, Marshal, the soldiers' troubles come from spoiled grain, and the rest of the battalions have been investigated, although the grain is a little old, it will not become colorful rice, or even eat the dead! He thought that the problem should lie with Li Guangrong, who led the troops, and it happened that Li Guangrong was on the day the grain arrived. He led his family to patrol the border with him, but his motives were really suspicious, and he implored the marshal to give an order to transfer General Li back to Liaoyang. Ask well, if not, you can wash away his grievances! ”

How could it not be!

There is no fool present, Lao Li is going to be finished now, is there a good end to being targeted by Yushi! Especially Huang Ziqiao, who was born in the second class Jinshi and has a deep Donglin background, if he bites anyone. How many of his comrades will help him wave their flags and shout, and he shuddes when he thinks about it.

His eyes fell on Xiong Tingbi, Li Guangrong led the troops to fight and was not outstanding, but he was very skilled, and he was in his forties, and he wanted to worship Xiong Tingbi, who was just fifty, as his godfather. Although Xiong Tingbi still had an old face and did not agree, Li Guangrong served diligently.

If it weren't for Xiong Tingbi's protection, Zhang Feng's case. Li Guangrong is finished.

At this time, Xiong Tingbi was also very embarrassed, looked left and right, and it happened that the governor Xue Guoyong had taken sick leave, and among the remaining civil officials, only Yan Mingtai, the superintendent, and Zuo Xu, the governor of Zizai Prefecture, were among the remaining civil officials. Yan Mingtai and Xiong Tingbi were both Jinshi in the twenty-sixth year of Wanli. The official position is far away, Lao Yan has resentment in his heart, bows his head and pretends to sleep. As for Zuo Xu, he was even more timid and afraid of things, and he didn't dare to come forward at all.

Xiong Tingbi gritted his teeth secretly. And do it yourself!

He sneered: "Huang Yushi, Li Guangrong is to blame for the trouble, but there are many batches of military rations. The origins are different, it is inevitable that some rot and deterioration, the current situation is tight, or wait for General Li to come back from patrolling, and then deal with it! ”

Huang Ziqiao didn't buy it at all, raised his eyebrows, and said loudly: "Marshal Xiong, the rule of the army is rigorous, Li Guangrong is suspected of greedy ink, and as an imperial historian, he will definitely not allow such a black sheep in the army!" I implore Xiong Shuai to give an order immediately and transfer Li Guangrong back! ”

"Huang Ziqiao, don't go too far!" Xiong Tingbi reprimanded sharply and shouted: "You are just a newcomer to the imperial history, and you dare to make a big deal without even figuring out the situation." Don't think that this official doesn't know, who instigated you, you have formed a party for personal gain, regardless of the overall situation of the military, this official is a strategy, and you must be impeached! ”

Xiong Tingbi said, his eyes fell on Hong Fuyi, it was obvious that he had beaten these two into friends.

A day ago, Hong Shibi might have hesitated, but now Hong Shiki is not afraid at all, because he already has sufficient evidence in his hands!

Yesterday, Zhang Ke brought grain from Shen Qingyan, and by the way, he brought back the list of account books promised by Jin Wanguan. Jin Wanguan is also a wonderful person, and he even attached a letter to it, writing out the matter of military salary.

Hong Fu knew it in his heart, and said with a slight smile: "Lord Jingluo, Hong has never dared to wronged anyone!" The military rations transported to Li Guangrong were originally the best Jiangnan rice grains, just like the other battalions. But suddenly it has become rotten grain, and the really good grain has lost a trace, don't you know the suspicion? ”

These few words suddenly frightened the faces of the civil and military forces present, could it be that Li Guangrong was so frenzied that he was stealing and selling military rations! This is not a sin of negligence, but a loss of head.

Yan Mingtai suddenly opened his old eyes and asked in surprise, "Lord Hong, is there any evidence for what you said?" ”

"That's natural, I've checked the list of grain received by the barracks, and I've reduced the stock of grain in various grain stores in Liaoyang by more than 20,000 stone last month!"

"Brother Peide, are you saying that someone has collected the grain in exchange for good military rations!" Yan Mingtai suddenly stood up, bowed to Xiong Tingbi, and said, "Lord Jingluo, why do you want to return food, you want to make profits, and there is another purpose. Where did the good food go, and whether there was a conspiracy behind it, I thought I had to investigate! ”

……

Zhang Ke waited anxiously in the class room, and it was almost noon, when Hong Fuyi and Huang Ziqiao came out one after the other.

"Teacher, what's going on, are you going to take down Li Guangrong?"

"That's right!" Hong Shiki nodded.

"That's great, let's have a drink and celebrate!"

Hong Shibi shook his head: "Yongzhen, it's right to take it, but Lord Xiong won't send troops." ”

What the?

Li Guangrong is a general soldier all the way, and there are thousands of families under him, how can he be easy to deal with? With the two civil officials, what if Li Guangrong opposes it, wouldn't he be sent to death!

"Brother Yongzhen, to be precise, Xiong Jingluo asked you to arrest Li Guangrong." Huang Ziqiao patted Zhang Ke's shoulder vigorously, with a strange expression, and said with a smile: "Brother Yongzhen, I believe in your ability, you will definitely do it, come on!" ”

"Phew, I don't believe in myself!" Zhang Ke couldn't help but howl miserably. (To be continued!)
