Wu Shigong went to Yangzhou this time and brought the 200 guards around him. Yuan Xingshan will also go with five men from the Four Seas Commercial Bank. These days, Yuan Xingshan is purchasing some goods, and he wants to make up a caravan with Wu Shigong and them to go to Yangzhou.

Yang Rusong, the commander of the pro-army team, also returned to the army after his vacation. However, what made Wu Shigong strange was that Yang Rusong's right eye was beaten like a panda's eye. This made Wu Shigong very strange, why did he go on a blind date and come out of the martial arts?

But no matter how you ask Yang Rusong about the cause of his injury, Yang Rusong always refuses to say. But Yang Rusong refused to say that the stinky boys in the pro-soldier team were neighbors with Yang Goudan's family, and they all knew the reason.

Under Bao's inquiry, Shumo's eyebrows fluttered and explained the reason to Wu Shigong. It turned out that Yang Rusong's blind date was very smooth, but after Wu Shigong promised to give Yang Goudan an an official body that day, Yang Goudan really regarded himself as an official.

After Yang Goudan returned home, he said to his wife: You must be decent when you become an official, and you have to marry a few concubines to meet the identity of an official. After that, the reaction of Yang Goudan's wife, everyone can also imagine,

But when Yang Goudan's wife chased Yang Goudan with her special weapon, a rolling pin, Yang Rusong happened to come home from vacation. Seeing that his mother was beating his father again, Yang Rusong must have persuaded him. In this way, Yang Rusong was injured by mistake.

It's this kind of again, Wu Shigong is already immune to the matter of Yang Goudan and his wife. He called Yang Rusong, who was a little embarrassed, over and said, "You go and talk to your father, just say that the official said that your father wants to marry a concubine, and you must have your mother's nod." You should also persuade your mother that it is always inevitable to have a companion at home, but don't dance with a knife and stick at every turn, and give your father a decent look. ”

Yang Rusong immediately agreed happily. Because Wu Shigong's orders were obviously biased towards his mother.

Because Wu Shigong didn't want to leave Runing Mansion for too long, Wu Shigong went to Yangzhou this time to go back quickly. Wu Shigong arranged it like this: he rode to Yangzhou by land, spent one or two days negotiating with the Lu family, and then took a boat back to Jining, and then returned to Runing Mansion by land.

Therefore, the goods purchased by Yuan Xingshan cannot be too heavy. In order to cover up Wu Shigong's identity, and because there was a caravan of more than 200 people, Yuan Xingshan's goods could not be too worthless, so Yuan Xingshan mainly purchased light and valuable goods like Song embroidery.

And learned that Wu Shigong was going down to Yangzhou, Xue Zhinong of the Shanchuan Division also brought ten members of the action team to Wu Shigong and asked them to set off with Wu Shigong to protect Wu Shigong. Wu Shigong also wanted to see the ability of the members of the action team, so he agreed to Xue Zhinong.

When Xue Zhinong sent the members of the action team over, Wu Shigong asked about the situation of the Shanchuan Division in detail again, and when he arrived at Zuihou, Wu Shigong instructed: "Zhinong, there is one more thing you have to pay attention to for my uncle." On the way to King Qin, the whereabouts of the soldiers who fled should be inquired. If possible, your squad will take out them and their entire families. If it's difficult, you can also report to Uncle Wynn and ask him to send some troops to cooperate with you. ”

"Also, you have to recruit more people in this line, if there are some people you think are haode in the line, you can also absorb them into our house, and you can master how to do it yourself. Uncle, I want to leave the matter of escorting the caravan to you in the future. With this serious act as a cover, your goal will not be so obvious. ”

"Since you have the word "mountains and rivers" in the Mountains and Rivers Division, you must also pay close attention to the matter of depicting maps of various places. Topographic maps should be drawn for those outside the city, detailed maps for those in the city, and it is best to mark the location of each house clearly. ”

"The training of the task force should not be like training soldiers. They weren't scouts after all. The location of their activities is usually also in the city. So how to train them, you have to come up with a little bit of your own method. ”

At that time, those soldiers who defected fled from Wu Shigong's control area, and when Wu Shigong wanted to deal with them after he returned, he couldn't find them for a while. Now Wu Shigong asked Xue Zhinong to find those defected soldiers, and he also knew that this matter was somewhat difficult. However, after this chase order was issued, it always showed Wu Shigong's attitude towards those defecting soldiers.

As for the arrangement of the dart game, it is because there was no dart game in the Ming Dynasty at that time, and the dart game actually undertook the work of this dart game. After Wu Shigong let his battering take on the work of escorting the caravan, in the eyes of outsiders, this battering line was no different from other raids. Moreover, Wu Shigong's own soldiers can also be freed from the affairs of escorting the caravan.

Wu Shigong also inspected the training of the task force. Because Xue Zhinong had little experience in the training of the action team, the members of the selected action team were basically selected according to the standards of the scouts, and the training content was also trained according to the training content of the scouts.

But Wu Shigong didn't need a group of scouts anymore, because we already knew that the scouts at that time were all cavalry, and if they relied on people's feet to deliver the news after detecting the news, the news would often fail, so it was not very useful.

Wu Shigong needed those action teams to carry out some affairs in various cities, such as assassination, stalking, etc. Therefore, Xue Zhinong's training method needs to be modified.

But then again, Xue Zhinong has made the Shanchuan Division look a little bit in such a short period of time, which makes Wu Shigong quite satisfied. As for how to do better, we also need to continue to explore together in the future.

After Yuan Xingshan prepared the goods and Zhang Xuebin got a few road guides through the relationship of Runing Mansion, Wu Shigong took this group of people to officially go down to Yangzhou.

Wu Shigong: They didn't carry long weapons with them. However, they were all dressed in soft armor, and they brought out all the forty or so handcuffs in the army. There were still more than a dozen firecrackers hidden on the cart loaded with goods.

On the way down to Yangzhou, because this caravan was crowded, and they were walking in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, they arrived at Yangzhou City ten days later without encountering any accidents. However, the rapid march along the way made everyone tired.

In the Lu family in Yangzhou, the two brothers Lu Jianyin and Lu Jianchen were discussing. Lu Jianchen said: "Big brother, is it appropriate to drag Wu Shoubei into this matter this time?" ”

Lu Jianyin gritted his teeth and replied, "Big brother, I am really unwilling. If the Lu family's salt can't be sold, the prayer family will come according to the rules and take our salt and return it. But the Qi family colluded with the salt transport envoy and snatched the salt of our Lu family alive, and I couldn't bear it. ”

After listening to the words of the eldest brother Lu Jianyin, Lu Jianchen asked with some concern: "The younger brother heard that the Qi family received the salt from our Lu family, and it was the salt envoy who supported their family in the back?" Big brother, if you fight with their government, can you draw it or not? ”

Lu Jianyin waved his hand very decisively and said, "There is nothing that can't be rowed." Our Lu family was charged with salt, and we can't be salt merchants anymore, so we won't deal with the salt envoys anymore. The Qi family also deceived people too much, and took our salt quotations, and used some money to buy our salt works. I have also inquired, and now the Qi family has basically collected all the lower families on our territory, that is, that Wu Shoubei and their Qi family are not dealing with each other. ”

"I also know the background of that Wu Shoubei, and he has two Hou mansions behind him. If he comes forward, maybe the salt envoy will look at the face of the two Hou mansions and will retain the qualifications of our Lu family's salt merchants. Although there must be less salt, it is better than not being a salt merchant. If it still doesn't work, the salt in our salt field can't be sold because there is no salt introduction, and it is not a big deal to give it to that Wu Shoubei. ”

Listening to Lu Jianyin's reason, Lu Jianchen nodded, and at this time, the housekeeper at the door came in and said, "Two masters, Lord Wu from Henan has arrived at the gate of Yangzhou City, and Xiao Wuzi has already received them at the gate of the city, and is arranging them to live in the inn." ”
