Chapter 313: Stunned
Man Gui is a Mongolian, from childhood to the Ming Dynasty, except for brute force, there is nothing left, only one way to be a soldier.
In this era, there is no national set, what is paid attention to is the retribution of the king's kindness, every time Mangui goes to the battlefield, he kills a lot, and the severed human head is tied to the war horse, like a string of lanterns.
Daming has always attached great importance to the first merit, and the head is a good thing to be promoted and make a fortune, and a head can be changed to a level. It stands to reason that the heroic and warlike Man Gui should rise to the top, but this is not the case, and after the year of its establishment, it is only a hundred households.
The reason is very simple, every time you cut someone's head, you have a choice, either to be promoted, or to exchange for silver.
Man Gui always thought that silver was the real thing, so he exchanged his head for snowflake silver, and went to eat, drink and have fun with silver. When the money is gone, go and kill people, and the Mongolian Tartar has become a mobile bank for Uncle Man, who can withdraw money at any time.
After a period of chic days, it wasn't until the friends around him were soaring that Man Gui figured out that he didn't have to worry about money when he became an official!
Fortunately, gold will always shine, the Liaodong War continued, the Ming Dynasty lacked soldiers and major generals, and Man Gui, who could fight, became a treasure, and rose to the position of general.
No one can stop luck when it comes, there is the Tartar Khan Court in front of me, it seems that there is no □ defense at all, and the opportunity to be rewarded for meritorious service has come!
"Kill, kill me!"
Man Gui led the way and rushed into the crowd, it was like a fish in water, the machete in his hand flew up and down, and with one knife, he could cut off two heads.
"Rejoice! Kill me! ”
The soldiers in the back also screamed, who led what soldiers, in the eyes of these people, the head of the Tartar was also a shining ingot.
They were like tigers into a flock, killing like crazy, and one by one the Tartars fell to the ground, killing, killing. They also suddenly discovered that the Tartars in the Khan's court were all old and weak, women and children, and there were almost no young and strong people.
Man Gui frowned, he didn't bother to care about this, he led his head to the tall yurt in the middle, and urged the horse to rush in directly.
I saw a golden dragon chair in the middle, shining.
"Phew, what pickled things, dare to sit on the dragon chair. Split it for Lao Tzu and cast ingots. ”
As soon as I heard this. No matter how idiotic your subordinates are, they can't know it.
"My lord, these things should be dedicated to the imperial court, and the saint will definitely reward them greatly!"
"Imperial reward?" Man Gui sneered disapprenously: "The imperial court has always peeled the skin layer by layer, and sent a watermelon, and there are sesame seeds left in our hands." Take the Tartar head as an example, the court set a price of fifty taels of silver, but the maximum amount issued to us is thirty taels. Damn, if you provoke Lao Tzu, I'll pull off all of them. See how much it's worth! ”
Man Gui scolded, but he still didn't split the dragon chair, but everyone on top of him cleaned it up.
He led the men and horses out and was about to continue the killing. Suddenly, a few soldiers ran in the distance, and they ran in front of Man Gui with a change of face.
"My lord, something is wrong."
"Hmph, don't make a fuss. Lao Tzu is not scared! ”
"Yes, yes, sir. A detachment of men and horses came from the north, and the banner was Yizhou soldiers. ”
Yizhou soldiers?
"Who's their leader?" Mangui asked.
When his subordinates heard this, they immediately rolled their eyes, what do adults usually think, why don't even the Yizhou soldiers know!
"My lord, it's Zhang Ke and Zhang Shaobao!"
"It's him!"
Man Gui frowned at first, and then jumped up violently, scaring the people next to him stupidly, my lord is having a convulsion! Of course, Man Gui didn't have a convulsion, he remembered the past. At the beginning in Tianjin, he was under Zhang Ke's command and dealt with the White Lotus Sect together.
It was in that battle that Man Gui came to prominence and was specially transferred to Jizhen by Wang Xiangqian as a general of Xifengkou.
In fact, with Man Gui's merits, it is not difficult to mix with the general soldier, but he is too unsociable, and he doesn't know how to go through the door and get through the relationship, so he has been staying at Xifengkou!
In Man Gui's heart, the only thing that can be seen is Zhang Ke, so he was ordered to enter the grassland, Man Gui was very active all the way, but unfortunately, it was still a step late, I heard that the Yizhou soldiers were coming, and Man Gui did not gather his subordinates, so he rushed out alone.
Killing and slashing all the way, I don't know how much blood was stained on my body, and I rushed to the periphery of the Khan Court in one breath, and met a huge team, with three or four thousand people,
Man Gui reined in the war horse, he had already learned the power of the Yizhou soldiers, but at this time, he couldn't help but stretch out his thumb again, the crowd in the distance was extremely regular, as long as he looked at their feet, he could find that the people behind him were almost stepping on the footprints left by the people in front, not a bad step.
Seeing the subtle knowledge, if these people go to the battlefield, they should cooperate more tacitly, how terrifying!
The Yizhou soldiers were even more powerful, and thinking about his subordinates again, Man Gui couldn't help but show a look of shame.
"Big man, let your family come and talk!"
shouted suddenly, Man Gui woke up, he stared at the bull's eye, and shouted: "Lao Tzu is happy to visit the general Man Gui, Zhang Ke and Zhang Shaobao are in the army?" ”
"General Man, don't come unharmed?"
Following the voice, Man Gui recognized it at a glance, it was Wu Boyan who came, and he had also fought side by side at the beginning.
The two men dismounted almost at the same time, ran a few steps, and came to a strong hug. Man Gui was so strong that he almost broke Wu Boyan's ribs.
"Okay, I didn't die in the hands of the Tartars, I died in your hands, Lao Tzu died unjustly!"
Man Gui let go of his hand and smiled honestly: "Old Wu, how is it, have you won the war?" ”
"Of course, don't look at who made the shot?"
"That is, with Zhang Shaobao here, he will definitely be able to win!"
Wu Boyan rolled his eyelids and said weakly: "Lao Tzu is not bad." "It's not a good thing to be with a boss who is too powerful, the aura is completely obscured.
While slandering, he said: "General Man, what are you doing here?" ”
"What else can I do, didn't Zhang Shaobao send a letter to Wang Butang and let them go out of the customs to respond, this is the Khan Court of the Karaqin Ministry, can't Lao Tzu beat them?" Man Gui immediately said vigilantly: "Old Wu, I admire Zhang Shaobao, we are also friends, but the credit cannot be made!" If Lao Tzu is not promoted again, not to mention Zhang Shaobao, you can climb on top of me. ”
Man Gui was quite shrewd, and Wu Boyan suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Brother Man, let me introduce you to someone."
The soldier behind him came over with a middle-aged man in a leather robe and threw him between Man Gui and Wu Boyan.
The middle-aged man struggled to get up from the ground and cursed.
"Wu Boyan, you, a faithless and unrighteous grandson, didn't you say that Bentaiji surrendered to you and let my people go? What's going on, why did the people who killed me? ”
In a hurry, this guy scolded in Mongolian, and Man Gui heard it clearly, and he grabbed Bale's chest.
"Old Wu, who is this guy?"
"It's Taiji of the Karaqin Department, called Bale!"
"Awesome!" Man Gui's eyes widened, and he couldn't help wailing: "Lao Tzu still thought that the Tartar had become a vegetable, it turned out that the leader was arrested by you, or Lao Tzu took advantage!" How about I make the decision and divide your heads in half? ”
"Not good!"
Wu Boyan shook his head: "Brother Man, these Tartars can't be killed." ”
"Why, the imperial court won't let it? Or don't you dare? ”
"Neither!"
Wu Boyan hurriedly explained: "Brother Man, the adults have defeated the Tartars, and from now on the grassland will be the Ming Dynasty, but the grassland can't be empty, and people need to graze and raise sheep." If you kill all these tartars, who will do the work? ”
In the Battle of Yingzhou, Wu Boyan led the men and horses to chase for eighty miles in one breath before he caught Bale, thinking that the princes of the Son of Heaven could easily solve the Karaqin Department, but he didn't expect a Mangui to emerge, or an old acquaintance, and he was not angry.
"Brother Man, Tartars are also useful, breeding cattle, sheep and horses, they are much stronger than the Han people, if you kill one more person now, we will have one less laborer."
Man Gui had a calm face, not interested in Wu Boyan's words at all.
"Old Wu, how much is a labor worth? The girl who can go to the kitchen is only two taels of silver, but a Tartar's head can be exchanged for thirty taels, which is enough to earn a lifetime. If you listen to me, you will cut off all your heads, how good it is for everyone to be promoted and make a fortune, why bother! ”
General Man's simplicity and rudeness made Wu Boyan speechless for a while, and at this time, a fat businessman walked out from behind Wu Boyan, and the flesh on his face was piled up.
"Hehe, this general, if you like silver, let's use labor to buy shares, 30,000 herdsmen, I count you as 20% of the shares."
"It's only two percent, how much silver can it be?" Man Gui said unremittingly.
"Not much, 200,000 taels of silver, a year!"
As soon as the words came out, Man Gui was so shocked that his eyes fell! (To be continued......)
