So where did that Ming army come from? It was the Guide Guard led by Zhao Ming. And the composition of this army is even more amazing, except for the more than 300 Guide Guards led by Zhao Ming, the rest of the more than 700 soldiers are the children of the German gentry and their families.

Of course, Zhao Ming is not a fool, he will not be in danger, and the purpose of his leading this army is to gild those gentry children. Therefore, Zhao Ming led the troops to go straight to Wu Shigong of the Runing Army.

"Veteran Lord! How did you come up with the idea of bringing this group of young master soldiers to play in our Runing? At such an age, I don't stay in Guide to enjoy happiness. I'm ready for you this year's wedding gifts! Because he was already very familiar with Zhao Ming, Wu Shigong spoke casually and joked about Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming didn't move, he laughed a few times and said, "Long respect brother!" Let's be brothers! If you call me 'veteran master' again, my old face can't be put down! Originally, I was going to come by myself, but those country talents insisted on coming along, so they wanted to share some credit. Say, "What can I do?" ”

"Why?" Wu Shigong asked strangely.

Wu Shigong knew that Zhao Ming was going to come to Runing a year ago. Because he saw that Runing's industry was booming, our Commander Zhao couldn't sit still, so he wanted to rely on Wu Shigong's relationship to come to Runing to earn some silver. Of course, as the commander of Gui Dewei, Zhao Ming could not leave his post without permission, so in the name of suppressing bandits, he prepared to come over with his own soldiers.

In this regard, Wu Shigong also raised his hands to welcome, after all, this is also an investment! Besides, if we can dump Runing's commodities into Guide and set up the industry of Runing's army in Guide, this will be beneficial and harmless.

"It's not that the elder brother is famous!" Zhao Ming replied quite helplessly.

We all know that Zhao Ming is very good at being a man. So before leaving, he notified the official gentry of Guide, wanting everyone to make a fortune together. But Zhao Ming didn't expect that his notice would arouse the enthusiasm of the officials and gentry of Guide.

First of all, almost all of the dozens of official gentry in the Guide Mansion have sent their sons and daughters to Runing to look for business opportunities with silver taels. Zhao Ming is also happy to see it come true, this is rich and everyone will make it together! But gradually, things have changed a little.

In order to protect Yin Liang and the children of his own clan, those official gentry families sent clan members to protect them, so the number of this investment business group swelled to thousands at once. See this happens. The minds of the gentry were lively.

Since it is already in the name of suppressing bandits, and since there are already thousands of people, why don't you ask Wu Shigong to share some of the merits of this business group?

You must know that Wu Shigong's Runing Army has achieved brilliant results in recent years, and every time it has won a big victory, it has exterminated tens of thousands of bandits. As long as Wu Shigong leaked a little between his fingers. It is completely possible to let the children of those officials and gentry share in the war exploits.

You must know that not all the children of those officials and gentry can enter the imperial examination. It is only through military exploits that official titles can be obtained. Even if you get a false title, it will also have great benefits in the security of your own family, business and walking around.

Moreover, those gentry families in Guide Mansion all knew the strong combat effectiveness of the Runing Army, so they all thought that this gilded trip was absolutely risk-free, and who wouldn't want such a costless thing?

However, those officials and gentry also knew that it was always a bit unauthentic to do such a thing to grab credit from the head of the Runing army. So he pushed the work of persuading Wu Shigong to Zhao Ming.

Hearing Zhao Ming finish telling the ins and outs with a wry smile, Wu Shigong's eyes immediately widened and complained: "Brother Ke! Those virtuous families are not sensible, don't you still know how to fight? There is nothing foolproof in this battle array. You call me little brother, how can I protect them? ”

If those official gentry from Guide Mansion come to invest, Wu Shigong does not mind sharing some military exploits with them, just to maintain a good relationship with the gentry of Guide Mansion, Wu Shigong will also do this. But after all, there are no eyes on the battlefield, in case those noble sons of the official gentry are damaged, Wu Shigong has become a good person to do bad things.

Moreover, the strength of the Runing Army was originally very tight, and in order to protect these young master soldiers, Wu Shigong had to send additional troops to protect their safety. And now it is the time for a full-scale war between the Ming army and the peasant army, which will cause the strength of the Runing army to be stretched. Therefore, Wu Shigong was very resistant to this group of young master soldiers going to the battlefield in his heart.

"That's it! It is! Zhao Ming also echoed. If the children of those officials and gentry are damaged, Zhao Ming, the military attache who led the team, will be more responsible. Besides, if these children of officials and gentry go to the battlefield, Zhao Ming will also have to personally lead the expedition, such a dangerous thing is simply more than marrying a concubine at such an age. So Zhao Ming was also very resistant to this matter.

So Zhao Ming inquired: "Do you take them to a safe place for a circle, cut a few heads indiscriminately to deal with it, and then send them home safely?" ”

Wu Shigong thought for a while and felt that it was only possible to do so. So he said, "So be it! You stay in Runing for a month, see what business you have to do, and finish it in advance. Then, before the wax moon, I will send someone to escort you to Ye County for a turn. In any case, I will give you some military merits. ”

"After that, it's up to you to carve brother. No matter what, we must persuade these little ancestors to go back. Don't let them play crazy outside, just tell them that they have to go back for the New Year to worship their ancestors! After that, you have to do the operation of military merit anyway, and I have absolutely no problem here anyway. Also, let them obey the arrangements of our Runing Army! ”

Zhao Ming nodded and said, "That's all it can be." Alas! ”

After talking about this, Wu Shigong asked casually: "Which children of the Guide Mansion are coming this time?" ”

"A few famous people are here. The leader is the Hou family, he should have been seen by you, that is, the grandson of the Taigong, the eldest son of Lord Hou, the one called Hou Fangyu. ”

"Huh?" Wu Shigong was surprised: "Has the young son returned to his hometown?" How could the young boy come? What is the young boy doing? Wu Shigong couldn't help but ask a series of questions.

In his dealings with the Hou Mansion, Wu Shigong had of course already known Hou Fangyu, and knew that he was brilliant at a young age, and had faintly become a young genius in Guide. Moreover, Mrs. Hou and Hou Sui both have great expectations for Hou Fangyu, looking forward to his achievements in fame and fame, and continue the glory of the Hou Mansion official gentry family.
