Wu Bin didn't say anything more, Bai Minghe felt that things might not be ordinary, and hugged his fists to the ten businessmen: "I'm sorry, there are important things that need to be dealt with, please sit here." I'll ask people to bring a list of goods, and I'll also arrange for someone to communicate with you first. Bai Minghe said and said to Qinghe: "Let Lu Qiyuan come over, you can't snub the guests." ”

All the merchants stood up and said in unison, "Lord Bai will deal with the important business first, and I will wait here!" ”

When he went out and went to the city gate to greet him, Wu Bin said to Bai Minghe: "If something big happens, the military department will rush for 800 miles." Yang Du died. ”

"Yang Du?" The white-named crane really didn't know which one Yang Du was referring to.

"Governor Xuanda, Yang Hong. Yang Yi's father, the eldest brother of Yang Du in Guangdong. It is a vicious disease, Xuanfu and other places are the northern gate of the Ming Dynasty, and it is not easy to guard this place, so Yang Du has to deal with a lot of government affairs at the age of seventy. Lord Yang Neng came over, it must be because of this incident.

Xuanfu, Datong, and the general manager of Shanxi's military affairs are money and grain, which is an important defense town in the north of the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Hong, who was the governor of the left army in the capital at the time, returned to the Xuanfu he had guarded for many years, and once again guarded the north gate for the Ming Dynasty. An old man of seventy years old, died in office.

This matter is not a trivial matter for the Ming Dynasty or the Ministry of War.

"Do the Yang brothers know?" Bai Minghe asked again.

"I don't know yet, someone has been sent over to inform the news sent by Jinyiwei that Yang Yi's eldest brother Yang Jun has returned to Beijing. It is definitely not a trivial matter for Yang Nengdu to come over in person, and Brother Bai still has a good preparation in his heart. He is the one who wants to see you by name. Wu Bin deliberately emphasized such a sentence.

Bai Minghe nodded: "Yang Xin and Yang Yi are our brothers. This matter has come to me. No matter how embarrassed you are, you can't shrink back, my brother's matter is my white name crane's matter. ”

Wu Bin nodded.

In the Ming Dynasty. People attach great importance to faithfulness, even if they don't burn yellow paper and cut off the head of the chicken. It can be said that brothers are brothers. What's more, Bai Minghe, Yang Xin, Yang Yi, and the two brothers, as well as Wu Bin, Du Shuangyu, and Jin Jie, have made a blood oath.

Bai Minghe walked very fast, and when he was about to reach the city gate, Du Shuangyu rushed over and directly put the filial piety cloth on Bai Minghe.

"Yang Xin and Yang Yi call you brother. This time, Yang Dudu personally came to see you by name, which must be a big deal. Du Pisces also said the same, and Bai Minghe's heart sank even more.

When they got to the city gate. Du Shuangyu and Wu Bin also put on the filial piety cloth.

Yang Neng entered the city, tied a white cloth on his head and waist, and the pro-army beside him were all wearing linen armor, and when he saw the filial piety cloth on Bai Minghe's body, he didn't wait for Bai Minghe to come over to give a salute, and slapped Bai Minghe's shoulder: "Bai Minghe, this time I want to embarrass you for my uncle, no matter what, support this face for my uncle." ”

"Yang Yi kowtowed to me. Called me brother, this filial piety cloth on my body is a heart! ”

Bai Minghe's stiff response made Yang Neng say hello three times in a row.

"Okay, let's go inside and talk!" Yang Neng reached out and grabbed Bai Minghe's arm. Strode towards the county office.

When I arrived at the county office, I looked at this county government that there was no half of the people, and even the main hall had a layer of extinguishment. Yang Neng was speechless.

Just when a few people were in a daze, the two brothers Yang Xin and Yang Yi rushed over. They are different, they are dressed in filial piety. knelt heavily in front of Yang Neng.

"Get up, it's not time for the men of the Yang family to cry." Yang Neng shouted.

Sitting in the main hall, in a relatively clean room in the county government, a few chairs were moved from the next room, Yang Neng asked Bai Minghe to sit down, and then he said: "Bai Minghe, my brother has been in operation in Xuanfu for many years, and his reputation is good, you just need to listen to what the people have to say in Xuanfu." Now, the old man has gotten the news that there is a villain who wants to take the position. ”

"Uncle is not in a hurry, my nephew doesn't know very well, please tell me more about it?"

"In Xuanfu, Datong two places. In addition to his brother, the old man only serves one person, that is, Wu Jinbo Zhu Mian. Two years ago, he died in battle with Song Fuma in Datongyang and Guan. If he lives, there is no need to fight for the position of governor, and I will obey him. But what is Shi Heng, villain, shameless villain! ”

When Yang Neng talked about Shi Heng, his tone was very excited.

"Shi Heng, when he was in Datong, his military exploits relied on Wu Jinbo. The defense of the capital after the war was actually the credit of Yu Gong, he just acted according to orders, but when he finally talked about the merits, Yu Gong humbly conceded, saying that he was just planning from the back, so he didn't dare to take the first credit. After that, he fought 700 people with 30,000 people, such a credit, Lord Bai, you don't know how to soldier, you can also mix! "Wu Bin is a person who practices martial arts, and he also looks down on Shi Heng.

Bai Minghe still didn't understand, but Du Shuangyu explained: "After the change of Tumu Fort, it was to guard the northern gatehouse. Although Yang Du is a martial artist, he has a very high reputation. Therefore, the two governors of Xuanfu and Datong, in fact, ...... "Du Shuangyu doesn't know how to describe it better."

Yang Neng was direct: "These two people are just decorations." It was Banzai who was sent to supervise the money and food, and these two people were also willing to be my brother's deputy, so after the battle of the capital, Banzai deliberately arranged it like this. ”

Bai Minghe thought for a while: "What is Shi Heng fighting for?" He went, as long as the two governors exerted their strength, he was just a subordinate of the governor, so could he still let him come? ”

"He's in two places, and his roots are deep. These two governors can't hold him down! "Du Shuangyu is engaged in intelligence by Jinyiwei, so he naturally knows these facts, not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary officials don't know.

"Simple, two powerful governors. Arrange a strong general, what else is going on with him! "Shira-naka came up with his own idea.

Yang Neng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's easy for you to do this." That's why the old man said that he wanted to embarrass you. ”

"Let me do nothing, just as I command!"

"Use your money to smash the Xuan Mansion. Only you can do it, only you dare to do it, and only you can let Shi Heng go to the Xuanfu. Listen to the old man! ”

Bai Minghe nodded, asked for a pen and paper, and his heart became a little heavier.

"Let's talk about the two places of Xuanfu Datong first, it is impossible for the garrisons in these two places to rely on the guards, since the two years before the Tumubao Change, they are all elite soldiers. In the thirteenth year of orthodoxy, the whole of Shanxi collected 3 million stones, barely enough for the two places. He also transferred 1 million stone of grain from Shaanxi and Shandong, and 8 million stone of grain from Jiangnan to Zhili. ”

I've heard this number before, and I don't think it's anything strange.

"After the Tumubao Incident, there were many dead and injured people in many places, and Shanxi could no longer afford such a huge tax. The pressure on Shandong has increased, and the people naturally have some complaints, but the war in these two places has continued every year, and as far as the old man knows, in the past two years, the replenishment of weapons has been supported by other capitals. ”

After the war, the people who were most injured were naturally the people.

It seems that Shanxi is very badly injured.

"My brother is here, and all the divisions will support it. But Shi Heng is here, will the various divisions still support it? At present, the army is only seventy percent full every day, and only before the war has one full meal. If they lose the support of the various divisions, those soldiers will have to take their lives to fill in. The old man wants you to be a crane with a white name, 300,000 stone of grain, and 100,000 taels of silver. ”

Yang Neng got up and saluted the white crane.

The white-named crane fell to his knees at once: "Uncle, I have food, but I don't have a boat." ”

"I have the boat!" Yang Neng shouted angrily with confidence: "I have a ship in Guangdong, and most of the three products of the Nanjing Five Military Governor's Mansion are friends with our brothers, I pull down the old face, borrow them hundreds of boats, they won't say no, you say, what should I do about this?" ”

Bai Minghe smiled: "Uncle, leave it to me." However, there are two sentences that my nephew said in front, the first sentence is that I borrowed the boat may be Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou. In the second sentence, I definitely want to follow the path of Yu Gong, I believe in Yu Gong's character, so I will choose to support Yu Gong, how to talk to Yu Gong is my uncle's business! ”

"According to you, for my Ming Dynasty, for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the north, I depend on you. At the end of the day, if you do something against your will, I will cut you down with my own hands. Yang Neng shouted murderously.

"I swear in vain that I will never disappoint my uncle." The smile on the white crane face made Yang Neng feel less at ease.

But even so, Yang Neng also trusted Bai Minghe.

"Deng Hailong!"

"The last general!" A middle-aged general dressed in second-grade armor stood up and stood in front of Yang Neng with both hands clenched into fists. Yang Neng stretched out his hand to help: "Wronged brother, listen to my nephew's dispatch for the time being." I also said a cruel word, if he breaks his trust, you will cut him down for me. ”

The white crane was in a cold sweat, where it was clear that he threatened himself like this, but the white crane had another plan. He hugged his fists and said to Yang Neng: "Uncle, please dispatch ships other than necessary defense, prepare five days of food and seven days of water for each ship, gather in Qiongzhou Wei, and bring some food with me first." Then go north! And take those heads! ”

"You go and arrange it, you can see the ship in Qiongzhou Wei in two days!" Yang Neng waved his hand.

Bai Minghe retreated and went out, and Wu Bin and the others also left, I'm afraid they will be busy these days.

After Bai Minghe left, Deng Hailong asked Yang Neng: "Yang Du, Bai Minghe is only eighteen years old. At such an age, can this kind of thing be left to him? It's not that I doubt your decision, it's that he's too young. ”

"Only he can do it, and there is one thing that few people know about. Take the match shop business, for example, he dedicated most of it to Banzai. When he went south, he brought with him a hundred thousand taels of silver, which Banzai gave him. And he made too much trouble in the capital last time, and his notoriety and murderous reputation made him stick. Any businessman, even if he donates money to Xuanfu, is asking for his own death. ”

Yang Neng's words made Deng Hailong nod vigorously, and Bai Minghe seemed to have an advantage.

"There is one more thing that only he can do. Because at the moment, the game between Banzai and the civilian clique is very delicate, he is a civilian official, and he is a person of Banzai. And he is extremely witty and has strange methods. In addition, when he returned to Beijing, there were eunuchs Jin Ying and Yu Qian to protect him. You didn't hear what he was asking for. is to support the person recommended by Yu Qian, then, his silver plus Yu Qian's power ......" (to be continued......)
