Section V
For the first time, he had a close look at Mao Wenlong's Huangshi, and now this historical hero of the late Ming Dynasty is not the image of a fierce general he imagined.
Mao Wenlong received them in a second-grade red official uniform, and he also wore a square-winged gold-patterned black gauze hat on his head, and his long fluttering beard was combed very neatly. It's a pity that the thick knuckles of his fingers reveal his true colors as a military general, and the dense wrinkles on his face tell the master's hard life since he was a teenager, and his bright eyes warn Huang Shi that this is not an official who lacks experience and is easy to deceive.
Mao Wenlong's gaze stayed on Huangshi's striking figure for a long time before taking it back: "I have heard about your experience of coming to Lushun, and at this time when the country is in misfortune, I am really pleased to have you loyal people." ”
Seeing that the two of them were about to be modest again, Mao Wenlong waved his hand and focused his gaze on Huang Shi: "Huang Guerrilla, have we met before?"
"Master Mao Mingjian, the last general once went to Zhenjiang. ”
"Sure enough, it's you. Mao Wenlong laughed: "Zhenjiang Yifarewell, I have always been worried about your safety, but now I am finally relieved." ”
Regardless of the surprised looks of the surrounding generals and Kong Youde, Mao Wenlong jumped up from the chair, walked down quickly and grabbed Huang Shi's hand: "Huang Guerrilla is very intelligent, Mao has wanted to talk to you for a long time, and today I can finally have this opportunity." ”
Mao Wenlong dragged Xun Xie with one hand to get Huangshi, and turned around and said to Kong Youde: "I grant Kong Youde the post of Sanshan garrison, and I will go to Sanshan Island to train troops in the future." ”
Kong Youde, who sent two levels in one breath, also immediately changed his title, no longer called Lord Mao, but saluted respectfully: "Yes, my lord." ”
Quang Ninh Town was destroyed, many officers in Quang Ninh were dismissed, and the rest were basically questioned and demoted. Of course, this does not include Huangshi, which was used as a flagpole by the imperial court, which had already approved Fang Zhengru's appointment, and the military department had added Du Commander to his name. At this time, Huang Shi didn't know that he was already a third-rank person, and if Mao Wenlong left him, he would be sent from the third-rank Dongjiang guerrilla at least.
But Mao Wenlong knew this, and after he finished speaking to Kong Youde, he turned around and smiled at Huang Shi: "I have prepared a reception banquet for Huang Guerrilla, and Kong Youde, you can come with you." But he didn't say a word about Huangshi's identity.
This made Huang Shi's heart suddenly feel a little uneasy, and he hurriedly asked: "Lord Mao, the last general also wants to contribute to the adult immediately." ”
"Hehe, the general also very much hopes that the yellow guerrilla can be under the command of the general. Mao Wenlong chuckled twice, and his expression became a little gloomy: "But this matter is not something that the general can say." ”
"What do you mean, Lord Mao?" Huang Shi became more and more uneasy.
"It's a long story, let's take a seat first. ”
At the reception banquet, Huang Shi was uneasy in his heart, and naturally he couldn't eat anything, Mao Wenlong felt that it was better to explain his words first: "Huangshi, you have beheaded Sun and won merit, and the deeds of Guangning to quell the rebellion, the imperial court has used the palace to report to the military towns, and now you are the commander of the three products and the guerrilla general." Liaodong Jinglu -- Now it is the king of Jin, and he also ordered the Ming army in Liaodong to report as soon as the traces of the Huang guerrilla attack appeared. ”
Because of this order, when Huangshi arrived in Lushun a few days ago, Tangbao immediately went to Phi Dao and Liaodong Jingluo Yamen. When Huangshi was delayed in Guanglu, the order of Liaodong Jinglu had reached Dongjiang Island, and the order was to immediately transfer Huangshi to Shanhaiguan for use.
Mao Wenlong then explained the origin of this order to Huang Shi: "The Shaling army was defeated, and the Guangning army either fled or surrendered, only Huang Guerrilla resolutely returned to the division and beheaded the traitor Sun Degong, and the imperial court was deeply commended. And when the imperial court held Guangning accountable, both the former Liaodong governor Wang and Xiong Jingluo were deeply impressed by you. ”
On the other hand, Fang Zhenru successfully led the Wan Guangning army to retreat safely to Shanhaiguan, and after Wang Huazhen escaped, he also burned a large number of military supplies accumulated in Guangning before escaping. In this way, Fang Zhenru received a calm comment, and the imperial court also took a fancy to his opinion of the Guangning Army.
"Fang Xunzhi and the Kochi Mansion also praised Huang Guerrilla greatly in the performance, so Liaodong Jingluo wants you to go to Shanhaiguan immediately. Mao Wenlong told Huang Shi about the matter from beginning to end, and said with a smile: "So the Huang guerrilla no longer belongs to the Guangning Army, and the Dongjiang Army can't leave the Huang guerrilla." ”
Huang Shi never thought that he had worked so hard to run here, and he would still fall into Liaoxi. And he knows very well that in the next three years, there will be almost no chance of meritorious service in Liaoning, and the martial arts family in Liaoxi will firmly grasp the position of Guanning Army, and he has no chance to get ahead.
The anxious Huang Shi couldn't help but argue: "The mountains and seas are thousands of two hundred miles away from Liaoyang, and Lord Mao is behind Houjin, Huang Shi is not talented, but he is not willing to go to the mountains and seas to enjoy comfort, but wants to stay here to kill the enemy and make contributions." ”
"Huang Guerrilla's mood Mao understands very well," Mao Wenlong spread his hand, and his expression looked very regretful: "But this is the order of Lord Jinglu, Mao is just acting on orders, and Huang Guerrilla is even more loyal and brave, and he should also be transferred to the mountains and seas to listen to it." ”
Although Mao Wenlong did not have the actual power to leave Huangshi, on the other hand, Mao Wenlong also had some opinions about Huangshi, first he felt that this person was too unfathomable, and Zhenjiang Huangshi left a deep impression on him.
Then there is the fact that Huang Shi killed Sun Degong, Sun Degong can be called a great favor to Huang Shi no matter what, but Huang Shi can turn his face and ruthlessly attack the benefactor, and he also personally killed all the men of Sun Degong, and let the soldiers divide Sun's concubines, maids, daughters, and daughters-in-law. Although Mao Wenlong also admired Huangshi's loyalty and courage, this viciousness really made people shudder.
Anyway, no matter what Huang Shi said, Mao Wenlong said that he really couldn't help. Huang Shi also understood that in the eyes of the imperial court and Liaodong Jingluo, the elite soldiers and strong generals were naturally going to be used to defend the Shanhai Pass, but Mao Wenlong refused to help, and he said that he would not stay in Liaodong. In addition to being angry, Huang Shi also began to bow his head and drink sullen wine - to the surprise of Kong Youde, who had always thought that he did not drink.
"For the matter of Zhenjiang, Mao has not thanked Huang Guerrilla. Seeing that the atmosphere was dull, Mao Wenlong began to talk about the topic again.
"Lord Mao is serious, just loyal to the country. Huang Shi replied without thinking.
This answer deepened Mao Wenlong's admiration for Huangshi, but he was also a little more worried. In any case, it is true that a person will admire the heroes of the high wind and bright festival, but it is also difficult to generate a sense of intimacy. Strangeness and incomprehension can bring a sense of distance and vague fear.
Besides, he didn't have the right to keep him, Mao Wenlong said to himself in his heart, but he congratulated him: "Shanhaiguan is also a critical place, and Huang Guerrilla will definitely be deeply used here, Mao wishes Huang Guerrilla success here." ”
"That's right," Kong Youde also saluted Huangshi with a glass of wine: "Brother, don't be discouraged, where is it not to serve the saint and the court?"
Is it possible for Mao Wenlong to intervene? If so, how can he impress Mao Wenlong? Huang Shi pondered bitterly.
