Chapter 672 - You Can't Take Risks
Of course, the connection between Zhou Baolu, the general of Xuzhou, and Ma Chonghao, the commander of Nanjing Jinyiwei, can be confirmed, and it can even be known that one of the sons of Zhou Shenjun is now based in Yangzhou, but there is not for fun, but for Nanjing Jinyiwei.
There is no need for Feng Qi to inquire about the news of General Zhou, in Xuzhou, especially in Xuzhou City, it is difficult to hide from Zhao Jin's eyes and ears, and even among the guards around General Zhou, there are those who take the initiative to report the news.
"What else can I do? Keep an eye on it, in Xuzhou City, can you still turn out our palms? Zhao Jin said in a sullen voice.
Speaking of this, Zhao Jin was really in a bad mood, and after answering with Chen Sheng, Zhao Jin rubbed his forehead and said: "This Ma Chonghao is in contact with military generals, what are you going to do, is it to gather an army to suppress it?" ”
These words made everyone in the room awe-inspiring, and Ji Xiang immediately said: "Big brother, then let's strike first, destroy this Zhou Baolu first, and then fight all the way south!" ”
Chen Sheng frowned, Wang Zhaojing glanced at Zhao Jin, and then said with a smile: "It's not enough to get to this point, if you want to move us, then you have to prepare more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, but if you make this preparation, it is impossible for us not to know, and the Ming system, if you want to send troops, how can the generals be the masters, you must advance Wenchen, but how can Wenchen and the factory guards get together, this Ma Chonghao's purpose for doing this is not clear, but it is definitely not the intention of moving the army." ”
Zhao Jin nodded, but turned to Ji Xiang, he looked over, Ji Xiang immediately bowed his head, Zhao Jin's face became stern, thought about it and eased up, sighed and said: "Da Xiang, I know what you think in your heart, but I still have the old saying, don't worry, we are in a very big situation now, it looks very stable, but it is also at a very dangerous moment, a little carelessness is likely to be turbulent, a casual sentence can make you say this, this is too easy to cause trouble, we are just twenty, there is still a lot of time, what is the hurry?" ”
Ji Xiang's face turned red, Zhao Jin's tone was always very gentle, and he said: "I won't say much about you, just let you do one thing, talk to outsiders, and think about the importance before speaking." ”
Seeing Ji Xiang nodding, Zhao Jin didn't continue, but at this time Chen Sheng frowned and said: "You will keep your mouth shut in the future, Zhao Jin has his own number of what he wants to do, and you don't need you to agitate it, who doesn't know your thoughts, the few below you are very impetuous even if I think so." ”
was said by Chen Sheng, Ji Xiang's body was a little shorter, and he was sweating on his forehead, it was almost September, and the weather was getting colder, but he looked like this.
Ji Xiang is most afraid of Chen Sheng, everyone knows that Ji Xiang's careful thinking Zhao Jin can also guess, he knows that Ji Xiang is not a reckless person, but sometimes he always likes to play tricks with a reckless appearance, but between his own brothers, and in a sense, Ji Xiang is also thinking about Zhao Ziying and himself, so there is no way to care, but Chen Sheng's reprimand is very appropriate, and Ji Xiang can't let Ji Xiang think that others can't guess his thoughts.
There was a short silence in the room, Wang Zhaojing was also there to fold the letter paper, these things should be bound in a notebook, after finishing it, Wang Zhaojing still couldn't help but say to Ji Xiang: "The eldest brother and the second brother treat you like this, and put you by your side for your own good, we really don't have to worry." ”
Ji Xiang lowered his head and looked very unsightly, just looking dejected, Zhao Jin shook his head and changed the topic directly, but turned to Niu Jinbao, who was standing on the side, and asked: "Old Niu, can you go to Nanjing to kill this commander of Jinyiwei?" ”
Niu Jinbao stood there like a stone statue, as if he hadn't heard anything about the conversation between Zhao Jin and his brothers, but when asked here, he immediately reacted, Niu Jinbao groaned, and said in a muffled voice: "If you can get closer, you will be sure of thirty percent, this surnamed Ma has martial arts, and he can't kill him at the first time, he is likely to run away, and this person is cautious, and it is difficult for others to catch the tracks, this is another trouble, if the small one goes, he wants Yong Ye to send his strong hands together, and he wants Nanjing to do internal response." ”
"If you give everything you should give, are you 80% sure?" Zhao Jin interrupted and asked.
Niu Jinbao pondered again, and then shook his head: "The little one is not familiar with Nanjing, and a few good hands under Yong Ye are only afraid and unfamiliar, and then, with a small feeling, there must be arrangements around Ma Chonghao, and it is too risky to do it in the city. “
"It's not worth it because it's so sure and risky." Zhao Jin waved his hand and said, whether he thought it or not.
Over there, Chen Sheng and Wang Zhaojing glanced at each other, both nodded, and both looked approving, Niu Jinbao followed Zhao Jin all day long, and said little, as if he couldn't hear or see a qiē, but this analysis just now let everyone know that he heard the usual discussions, didn't say it in his heart, and knew what was going on.
"Big brother, can't you make a fuss from his family?" Ji Xiang couldn't help but interject.
I didn't think he would say this, Zhao Jin, Chen Sheng and Wang Zhaojing all had wry smiles on their faces, Ji Xiang was a little anxious, and thought to himself Could it be that I said it wrong again.
Zhao Jin smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "There were a few times when you were not there when I read the letter, Ma Chonghao's family was no longer in Nanjing in June, and they did not return to the capital, and now no one knows that they are there." ”
Ji Xiang over there was stunned, and Zhao Jin scolded a dirty sentence and said: "This Ma Chonghao is really good at doing things, but he knows that the identity of his brocade guard can't scare anyone, so be extremely careful." ”
"Will this Ma Chonghao plot for our money, it's not that he is very greedy, he has been in Nanjing for a few years, and he has broken several big households and made a lot of money." Wang Zhaojing frowned and guessed.
Zhao Jin shook his head slowly, pondering and said: "It is impossible to make such a big battle just to make money."
"How rich our Zhao Ziying is, don't you know it? That day, Erhong probably calculated for me, and I just knew, I wondered if you were the reincarnation of the God of Wealth, and it was only a few years before you could get to this point, such a large amount of money, it is difficult to guarantee that this surnamed Ma will not be tempted. But Chen Sheng said this.
Zhao Jin still shook his head: "This Ma Chonghao has stayed in Beijing, and it is said that he is very valued in Zheng Guifei's family, and he is so shrewd and capable, such a character will not only focus on silver, right?" ”
***********
"What's the most important thing these days, silver! Nothing can be done without money! On the restaurant by the Qinhuai River in Nanjing, Ma Chonghao said with a loud laugh.
He didn't have to worry about being heard, because the entire restaurant was wrapped, and there was only one table on the second floor with the best scenery, and it was Ma Chonghao and the six of them.
Ma Chonghao sat in the chief, and what was interesting was that the six people around the group seat were all about the same age, all of them were capable, and everyone even wore similar clothes, looking like the dress of a rich and noble family.
The six people have similar similarities, for example, although they are dressed richly, their skin is very rough, they are exposed to the wind and sun, their eyes are bright, and their palms are much thicker than ordinary people, and they are all strong, there are not many people in Nanjing, but it can't be said that there are no, the generals of Xungui's family, the guards of the eunuchs, and the little standard camp in the hands of the military department Shangshu are all like this.
But the real Nanjing natives can also see the difference, compared to Ma Chonghao, the other five people are dressed relatively plain and simple, even if there is an ornament on the body, it is an old thing, but whether it is the material of the clothes or this ornament is very valuable, this kind of sinking wealth and nobility, it is impossible for the eunuchs to guard the town and those under the Shangshu of the Nanjing Military Department, these few can only be the leaders of the generals under the Nanjing Xungui.
In front of these people, even Ma Chonghao, who had followed Zheng Guifei's family in the capital, seemed to have a bit of an upstart atmosphere, after all, the rich generation and the rich and noble generation were different for hundreds of years.
Wei Guogong Xu's family is the inheritance of the founding father Xu Da, since the founding of Taizu has been continuing from generation to generation, the family soldiers and generals are also this way, many people talk about their ancestors, they are all following the old prince to fight in the east and west, this generation is also amazing, as for the other marquis, the earl's family is also about the same, although the system of the Ming Dynasty is noble and martial, but the martial arts and nobles handed down during the founding of the country are not in this system, even the nobles feel that their own family is superior.
However, they and Ma Chonghao got along well, at this time everyone was ruddy, full of smiles, Ma Chonghao's position as the commander was nothing among them, everyone said that they were generals, but they all had the status of world officials, and thousands of households were already the lowest.
Hearing what was said about this silver, everyone laughed, this Hanjing famous wine is strong enough, Ma Chonghao waved his hand there and said: "If you want to do a good job, if you want to let the brothers live well, why do you have to have some weapons made of good iron, how can you get a piece of armor, how can you have a good horse to ride, these can't spend silver, but where do you go to find the silver?" Do you expect it to be dialed to you? ”
There was another burst of laughter below, and a bearded beard said in a rough voice: "Count on the silver from above, then don't buy a horse, it's good to buy a donkey!" ”
"Otherwise, let's just say that your Xu family has a big face, and you can pay back some of the above discounts, and if you change it to our house, you can buy a dog!" Someone laughed and interjected.
Everyone laughed again, Ma Chonghao picked up the wine bowl and signaled to everyone, and then drank and said: "Those sours are all in the eyes of money, no matter how much silver comes down, there will not be much in our hands, we have to do things ourselves, brother, more than 50 people who can do things on my side are all raised with their own money, and they are better than others when they can be used!" ”
