Not long after Xiong Jiben left, Ah Ren came to report for the third time, and Xu Zhubo asked to see him.

Wuji dealt with the two of them in a row, which was really annoying. But when he thought about it, he didn't know who was hiding behind Xu Shiming, so he instructed Ah Ren: "Please let him in." ”

"Ming Mansion, the lower officials are polite." Xu Shiming entered the room and said.

"Excuse me, find a place to sit on your own."

Xu Shiming glanced at it and found a pile of water stains on the ground, and smiled.

"Mingfu is a young man, why should you be angry about such a trivial matter."

Mowgli was surprised, is there really someone behind this old slippery head?

"Master Xu said with a smile, why did you come to see a certain institute?"

Xu Shiming said slowly: "The lower officials are here to relieve the worries of the Ming Mansion. ”

Wuji said indifferently: "Really? Mr. Xu, please speak. ”

"What the Ming Mansion is worried about is the matter of the unity army." Xu Shiming said with a wink of triangular eyes.

Nonsense, unscrupulous.

"The subordinate thinks that there are two things involved in the disposal of the Unity Army. First, the supply of grain and grass, although this is difficult to solve, is not a matter that must be solved in front of us. Second, worrying about civil officials taking charge of military affairs and arousing the suspicion of the king is the most upsetting thing in the Ming Mansion. Xu Shiming continued.

Wuji Zhilu said, this old slippery head is selling Guanzi, but I have to listen to him.

"The Ming government uses civil officials to perform the duties of military attachés, and if the name is not right, it is not good, and it will be jealous for the king to take advantage of this to admonish those who have a heart."

"Please also ask Master Xu Bo to teach." Mowgli can be sure that this old slippery head must be a countermeasure.

"Don't dare to be the word Ming Fu instruct. In fact, it is also very simple, the Ming government only needs to make an excerpt in advance, and ask the king Enzhun to serve as the garrison of Badong, and then have the power to recruit township soldiers, and then reorganize the unity army into township soldiers, and it is justifiable to govern it. ”

Looking at the trembling beard on the black mole at the corner of Xu Shiming's mouth, Wuji resisted the urge to slap him.

What the old slippery head said is indeed true. Wuji is in turmoil, and his heart has been degraded because of his military power, so he naturally can't think of taking the initiative to ask for a military position, and he is a seven-rank county commander and a seven-rank garrison, which is not uncommon when wars are frequent, and it is not surprising that even the garrison concurrently serves as a county commander.

"But what if the king doesn't allow it?" Mowgli asked.

Xu Shiming smiled and replied: "Ming Mansion but please rest assured, I think the king will allow it." Imagine that the king has abandoned the united army, but there is no proper placement strategy, and now the Ming government can come forward to deal with the aftermath for the king, and the king should not ask for it. In addition, there are more than 1,000 township soldiers without establishment, and how to raise soldiers in a county in Badong, there is this problem, and the Ming government is naturally flawless. Moreover, if more than 1,000 township soldiers are not in the stream, they are undoubtedly a drop in the ocean for tens of thousands of Jingnan troops. Just imagine, why didn't the king allow such a thing that can not only make people carry the black pot, but also sell the favor of the father and son of the Ming Mansion? In the excerpt of the Ming Mansion, it must be stated that the unity army has worked hard and has made great achievements, and disbanding on the spot will make the soldiers suffer from hunger and cold, and if it is retained, it will make the soldiers feel grateful to the king Hongen, so the king is not a ruthless person, and will naturally allow it. ”

"Lord Xu is wise and wise, and he is convinced." Wuji suddenly woke up, he was in a good mood, and the old slippery beard in front of him was actually not so annoying.

Xu Shiming said: "The knot in the Ming Mansion has been resolved, and the next official has retired." ”

Mowgli didn't force it, let Ah Ren send Xu Shiming out.

When Xu Shiming left, Wuji realized that he had forgotten the bottom of Xu Shiming. In addition to being annoyed, he scolded the "old fox" with hatred in his heart.

Hurry up and write an excerpt and explain to the king the causes and consequences of wanting to reorganize the United Army due to the lack of food in the United Army. Let Ayi be sent to the state capital at dawn tomorrow, and then sent to Nanping after being approved by the state government. and two letters, handed over to the post guards and sent to the Liang Mansion and Gao Changshi Mansion respectively.

Badong has not been disturbed by war for more than ten years, and the Nanping decree is from the hands of Liang Zhen, the tax is not high, and the people's life is not bad. Coupled with the simplicity of public opinion in Padang, criminal cases rarely occur.

Badong is located between Wuxia and Xiling Gorge at the junction of Sichuan and Hubei, and has been said to be "the head of Chuxi and Badong" since ancient times, and is known as "the throat of Sichuan and Hubei and the gateway of western Hubei". The three mountains (Note 9) in the territory are separated, and the two rivers (Note 10) are divided.

Patong is rich in natural resources. The plants are most famous for Padang lotus, Padang red clover, and ginkgo; The animals are the rarest animals, such as giant salamanders and golden snub-nosed monkeys; Iron, coal and other mineral reserves are abundant, and Shennong Creek is even more pleasant.

On this day, Wuji took Ah Ren and Wei Lan out of the yamen and was about to continue to prepare for the "micro-service private visit" type of travel, when suddenly there was a rush of horses' hooves, and then a shout came: "Da Lang, Da Lang ......." "On the left side of the road, a horse was rushing straight towards him.

Wuji felt familiar, but he couldn't remember it all of a sudden, and he was thinking about it.

I heard Ah Ren shouting on the side: "Ah Kang." Da Lang, it's Akon's voice. ”

As he spoke, the galloping horse approached him, and the man on the horse grabbed the reins, jumped off the horse, and crawled to Wuji, sobbing and saying, "Da Lang, I'm back, I'm back." ”

Wuji took a closer look, how could he still recognize Ah Kang, who thought he was a jade-faced gentleman back then, seeing that his clothes were ragged, his hair and beard were mixed together, and it was only when he got close that a sour smell came to his face. Isn't this a whole one who asks for food?

Seeing that Wuji couldn't recognize himself, Ah Kang flicked his hair back with both hands, revealing his face, and cried: "Da Lang, can you recognize me?" I couldn't find you in Gangneung, and after inquiring, I found out that you had come to Padang. ”

Only then did I see that this outline was really Akang. Wuji's eyes were hot, and he couldn't care about the sour smell of this birdman, and rushed up to a bear hug: "Akang, it's really you, you're finally back, you make me think so bitter, look forward to it." ”

Ah Kang muttered in his mouth, there were a lot of things he wanted to say, but he didn't know where to start, he only hugged Wuji and whimpered, so stunned that tears appeared in his eyes.

After a long time, Wuji let go of Ah Kang, and suddenly remembered the four guards who went with Ah Kang, and asked, "Ah Kang, where are your guards?" ”

Ah Kang couldn't hold back the tears anymore, and sobbed: "When the sea encountered wind and waves, all four of them were killed, but unfortunately they couldn't even find their bones, Da Lang ......." ”

After that, he howled again.

Wuji knows that there must be some indescribable bitterness along the way, otherwise for Bailikang, who has always paid attention to manners, this appearance is absolutely intolerable.

Wuji patted Bailikang gently, no longer speaking, only hoping that Akang would calm down as soon as possible and vomit out the bitterness along the way.

didn't think about it, Ah Ren was waiting on the side and was annoyed, and when he saw Wuji open lightly, he couldn't help but rush up, continue to hug, and hug ...... hard.

Poor Bailikang finished crying, and a lot of tears were squeezed out. After the two of them finished hugging, Wei Lan stretched out his arms on the side .......

For the hungry Berry, a hug, especially one that glows with deep friendship, is a kind of suffering.

In the mournful sound of Ah Kang's out-of-tune, he finally finished hugging, and his tears were gone.

A few people were about to speak.

Suddenly, Ah Kang pushed Wei Lan away and untied a burden from his body: "Da Lang, Ah Kang is fortunate not to be dishonored, find ......." ”

Wuji was shocked in his heart, grabbed Bailikang, and blocked his words in his mouth with his eyes.

"Go in and say." After Wuji finished speaking softly, he dragged Bailikang into the yamen.
