Tongzhou is only a day's journey from Luoshan, and when Zhang Jianye's people sent the things Zhou Huchen needed to Tongzhou City, it was already noon the next day.

Zhou Yuji was very depressed, because Zhang Guowei, the secretary of the Ministry of War, asked Zhou Huchen to write him a short letter, in which Zhang Guowei told Zhou Yuji to train well in Shanxi, and in time, he would let Zhou Yuji return to Beijing.

This is Zhang Guowei's refusal of Zhou Yuji's request to go to Beijing to help, of course, Zhou Yuji didn't know that his son Zhou Huchen was actually in disobedience, and what he did was exactly the opposite of Zhou Yuji's wishes and thoughts.

Since he was rejected, Zhou Yuji could no longer think about it, and handed over those materials to Zhang Jianye's people, and Zhou Huchen blatantly gave a cart of heads to the comer, and then, the group set off with several carts of gunpowder and one hundred and twenty Lumi guns to leave Tongzhou, the target, Bauhinia Pass.

Bauhinia Pass is one of the passes of the Great Wall, known as "the first Xiongguan in the south of Jinan", the south blocks the steepness of the road, the north bears the abyss of rejecting horses, the approximate floating map is the portal, and the far away is Xuanda as the fence. A pass is in the middle, the group is dangerous, the scale is magnificent, and it is guaranteed by the assistant. Bauhinia Pass is located between Juyong and the two passes of the inverted horse, and is known as the "inner three passes". As the northern gate of Beijing, Juyong Pass is an important barrier against foreign invasions from the north. However, history proves that Bauhinia Pass is in an irreplaceable strategic position in defending the capital, and its terrain is dangerous, and it has been one of the important gateways of the North China Plain since ancient times, and the place where soldiers must fight.

The guard of Bauhinia Pass is a general of Baoding Mansion, named Hou Cheng, this Hou General has been frightened for a long time, because Zhou Yuji's huge army has been staying at Bauhinia Pass, although this huge team of nearly 20,000 people did not harass the place, nor did it clash with the local Zhu army, but Hou Cheng could not not worry, of course he knew what Zhou Yuji was, he couldn't offend, and he didn't dare to urge them to set off. Therefore, he was very cautious, he knew that once there was a fight, Zhou Yuji's handwriting of these fierce sergeants would probably make these defenders of Bauhinia Pass cry and have no place to cry.

Finally, under the long-awaited wait, the candidate general brought Zhou Yuji here.

Stayed overnight at Bauhinia Pass, and early the next morning, in the prayer of General Hou, Zhou Yuji led a torrent of materials and a huge crowd out of Bauhinia Pass, and then went straight to Datong Mansion.

Bauhinia Pass is still four hundred miles away from Zhou Yuji's place of office, Datong Mansion, this huge team moves too slowly, looking at it, it seems that this is a sea of people and vehicles, wheelbarrows, mules and horses carrying all kinds of supplies, and a long line of soldiers on the official road is a distance of four or five miles.

One day, that is, about forty or fifty miles, the sixteenth day of the leap month of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the outline of Datong Mansion City finally appeared in the sight of Zhou Yuji and his son.

After all the hard work to come to Datong, the scene all the way is shocking. It is not the desolate landform of Shanxi, and the official defense is not the most important, the important thing is that anyone can see at a glance that this is their own team, but the torrent of 20,000 people is a little uneasy, the place where the army passes is panicked, the people are like avoiding tigers and wolves, and the officials of Shanxi provinces and counties along the way do not dare to put them into the city at all.

There is naturally a reason for the panic along the way, and the soldiers are like combs!

No one is afraid that this army is an army that has always had the characteristics of the typical Ming army: plundering places.

The army of the Ming Dynasty is so sad, although Zhou Yuji's army does not have such characteristics, but, who dares to let them into the city, who dares to face the officers and soldiers boldly, this world is a show to meet soldiers, there is a world that is unreasonable, only those who have the right to serve have the right to speak, no one knows the situation of Zhou Yuji's army, and it is inevitable to avoid snakes and scorpions.

Fortunately, in addition to engaging in some firewood, Zhou Yuji's army was well supplied.

The Yamen of the Shanxi Command Department is in Datong Mansion, and it is also the place where Zhou Yuji went to work.

When the huge flood reached Datong County, which was forty miles away from Datong Prefecture, finally, the people who greeted Zhou Yuji came.

The leader is an old acquaintance, named Jia Xuan, he and Zhou Yuji were colleagues in Beijing, but the position is low, Jia Xuan used to be a garrison, and now, he is only a guerrilla, Datong Left Guard guerrilla general.

I haven't seen him for a few years, and now Zhou Yuji is already the prince of the Ming Dynasty, the governor of Zuodu, and the chief military officer of Shanxi, while Jia Qi has only been promoted a little bit, and the two are very different from each other.

This is not Jiangnan, nor is it a capital division, it is a border defense place, and civil officials dare not snub high-level military attaches too much, this is the characteristic of border towns. Datong Mansion is a military stronghold for the defense of the Northwest Frontier, mainly for the Mongols, these generals, especially the general soldiers of a province, are also a general army with a good reputation, which is very important to the civilian officials in the border wall area, so the prefect of Datong Yan Su is very low-key, and he led his officials out of the capital city of Datong Mansion early.

The new Shanxi chief military officer Zhou Yuji brought a large amount of materials, as well as the 20,000 fierce soldiers, this is a landscape that has never been seen, which is breathtaking, and it also makes Yan Su, the prefect of Datong, and others break out in a cold sweat, most of the soldiers are transporting supplies, which is too much!

After the army was properly placed outside the city, and the greetings with the Datong civil and military officials who greeted him were completed, Zhou Yuji led a part of the people into Datong City, which was regarded as taking office.

After entering the city, Zhou Yuji went to attend the welcome banquet of the civil and military officials of Datong Prefecture, while Zhou Huchen and several staff members and subordinates began to arrange family members in the General Military Mansion.

This Datong General Military Mansion is very large, and the difference between this Datong General Military Mansion and the Civil Government is that the military attaché does not have to worry about the luxury of his residence and the government, obviously, Zhou Yuji's predecessor Xu Dingguo also agrees with this.

The courtyard is deep, the rockery garden, and the cloister are scattered in this general soldier's mansion, and as for the house, a few words can be replaced; Carved beams and painted buildings.

It's not bad, Zhou Huchen is very satisfied, this general military mansion is much stronger than Zhou Yuji's mansion in Beijing, now there is no need to worry about the large number of people and no place to live, this general military mansion that covers an area and is wide is to live in hundreds of people without any problems.

"Arrange Xiaowei next door to me, so that I can take care of it." The little cousin Liu Wei came to Datong alone, his uncle and aunt have been benevolent and righteous to him, Zhou Huchen estimated that he may not have time to take care of Liu Wei in the future, but he always has to make a gesture of intimacy.

"I want to gallop on the battlefield with my cousin, I will go wherever you go, I can live anywhere, just arrange it!" Liu Wei's performance is that he is a little adult, he followed everyone to Datong without saying a word, although he is only twelve years old, and his height has not reached Zhou Huchen's shoulders, but he is obviously not a person who is willing to be lonely.

Zhou Huchen stretched out his hand and measured it: "Xiaowei, if you want to gallop with your cousin, you will be obedient in the future, and you will do whatever you want, you are too young now, when your height reaches my ears, I will let you kill the enemy with your cousin." ”

Liu Wei rolled his eyes, and he looked at Zhou Huchen.

Zhou Huchen's height has grown a lot, his current height is half a head taller than an ordinary man, plus he has never lacked exercise and haode diet, and now, Zhou Huchen is an iron tower standing in front of Liu Wei, who has not yet developed. Liu Wei suddenly felt a little sad, how did this cousin grow, why was he so strong.

"Don't look at me with this kind of eyes, just your small body, you can't even lift a knife now, exercise at home in the future, read some books, eat and eat, there will be opportunities in the future!" In the future, this is his own powerful arm, whether it is stimulating this little adult, Zhou Huchen looked at Liu Wei with a playful tone.

"What does my cousin eat every day?"

"Eat enough, have meat for two meals a day."

"What else?"

Of course, Zhou Huchen understands that this little Liu Wei is a little anxious, he wants to grow taller and stronger quickly, so that he can enter the army, so Zhou Huchen simply answered Xiao Liu Wei with conventional training methods: "In addition to eating well and exercising diligently, running no less than five miles a day." ”

The answer was very simple, and it wasn't too much of a mistake, but Zhou Huchen didn't realize that he couldn't take care of Liu Wei at all in the future, and it was these simple and no longer simple answers that Zhou Huchen inadvertently created an invincible long-distance running champion and a physical fitness coach in the army.

"Is it easy to eat enough, eat more meat, and run more than five kilometers a day?"

Liu Wei didn't pay attention to Zhou Huchen anymore, he muttered these crucial mantras in his mouth, and then, Shi Shiran turned away.
