Chapter 345: Return to Beijing

Zheng Haizhu crossed Jizhen, returned to Xuanda, and brought Li Huaihua and other women directly to Ma Xianglin and Man Gui's Longmen guards.

"These women, with big feet and solid leather, are used to seeing rough masters, and even more accustomed to hearing the sound of firearms in Shanhaiguan, not those delicate ladies who can't get into battle, they can be artillerymen. When I passed through Jizhou, I had already used Juniper's post post to send a letter to Nanzhili, asking Sun Yuanhua to send three eagle falcon cannons over, and then asking Mrs. Huang to select two groups of six arithmetic girls from the school, just like their senior sisters in Fushun City back then, who knew how to use the gun gauge and the degree board, and put them under your account together, and they would be led by He Zhuo. By the way, He Zhuo is also familiar with the Mongolian rangers, the sentry team can also be built, and women can also be used, the rangers are all light arrow throwing, not the kind of foot bow of the Jianzhou people, it is not difficult for a woman to pull a full bow while riding a horse. It's better to go outside the gate and recruit our mother-in-law who died at the hands of the Tartars, who could also ride horses, and their hearts are full of blood feuds. ”

In the dilapidated guerrilla general of the Longmen Guard, Zheng Haizhu said the arrangement concisely with a fierce spirit.

Ma Xianglin had begun to get used to her increasingly strong style, and knowing that she was completely out of consideration for adding strength to her command, he nodded in agreement.

On the contrary, it was He Zhuo, who was called, looked surprised and stopped talking.

Zheng Haizhu looked at her and said, "What? Do you think that we Mingren also believe in you? After all, you are a Jurchen, although you have a grudge against Nurhachi, but we directly give you a firearm soldier to bring, do you still feel hot? ”

He Zhuo lowered his eyes, still considering his words, and Man Gui opposite her had already said in an urn: "It's not a problem, Miss Hezhuo didn't really marry me, madam, you and General Ma asked her to lead the troops and spread them to Beijing, what should I do if there are rats to sue Diao?" ”

He bit the words "and didn't really marry me" very hard, with Zheng Haizhu as a woman's sensitive and delicate taste, there was clearly a bit of anger in the depths of his tone.

Zheng Haizhu looked at He Zhuo again, and saw that her face immediately changed from hesitation to embarrassment, but it was not like on the road out of the jam a few months ago, and from time to time she hung a cold and arrogant look at the corners of her eyebrows and eyes.

"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious," Ma Xianglin, who was sitting in the position of the coach, said in a decisive tone, "He Zhuo, if you are really a spy of the old slave in Jianzhou, you will not be looking for death and life, I am afraid that I would like to mingle with that bad boy in Khalkha." The matter was settled. Azhu, call the women of Shanhaiguan in, and meet their little banner leader. ”

Li Huaihua, Concubine and others, a total of eight women, entered the fish.

Ma Xianglin and Man Gui are both military veterans, like connoisseurs Soma, you can count them at a few glances, these newcomers brought by Zheng Haizhu are only restrained, not afraid, and three or four of them still have a pungent murderous aura, just like the female soldiers in the stone white pole gun army, they can indeed practice.

He Zhuo was a little at a loss in the face of the Han woman who knelt down at her with Hulala, Man Gui grinned, patted his thigh, got up and said, "Let's go, I and your General He, take you to find a room to settle down." ”

"Well, yes, you guys, come with me and General Man." Holdra chimed in.

Ma Xianglin waved his hand with a cold face and said, "Go."

When the people went out and walked away, Zheng Haizhu saw that General Ma, a straight man of steel, finally couldn't hold back, and bit his mouth and laughed.

Zheng Haizhu also asked softly with a smug face: "These two people, when will it be possible?" ”

Ma Xianglin said honestly: "It's almost fast, Man Gui is not a raw melon and egg, in fact, he is quite good at coaxing women." Moreover...... Well, He Zhuo has beaten our dragon gate guards, and they are not like wandering spirits, their Yehebu Jurchens are the best at raising horses, and she has cured several war horses of rotten hooves. ”

Zheng Haizhu said with relief: "That's it, I look at her, and she is not willing to beg for cats and dogs." ”

He said with wistfulness: "Xianglin, I am not an immortal, and the past is not exhaustive, to be honest, every step I take, every time I recruit someone, I am not completely sure." But if you look forward and backward, suspicious and suspicious, we don't have to come out to wander, you go back to Shiyan, I go back to Songjiang, and each of us will be a rich man to live for a long time, isn't it more peaceful? ”

"Taiping fart," Ma Xianglin smiled and said seriously, "Nurhachi and his wolf-like sons, how can the land of Liaozuo in the deep mountains and old forests be closed, if Da Ming takes it lightly, the Tartars don't say that they enter the customs, they are going south, but I am afraid that it is not alarmist." Ah Zhu, you are right, the current slave chieftains have unified the Jurchen tribes, the eastern front and the northern pass of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the alliance between the imperial court and the Mongols, the sooner it is passed, the better. ”

Zheng Haizhu admired the strength of these Ming generals.

However, brave generals still need to be strong.

She then said in a few words that after she and Juniper socialized, Juniper expressed his willingness to hand over the Sichuan and Shu guest army, and mentioned that she wanted to go to Datong again, taking advantage of the opportunity to communicate with Cui Jingrong, the governor of Xuanda, about the current situation of Lin Dan Khan, and touch the situation of the low-level clan children in the fief of the acting king.

Ma Xianglin said that when he had sent Ma Biao to get the seal, he had inquired near Datong.

Indeed, as the great eunuchs Wang An and Zheng Haizhu reported to Zhu Changluo, the court of Zonglu in the fiefdom of the acting king was also stretched thin and dragged a little, and the acting king was not as willing to bail out the court as King Lu, and rarely helped the clan.

"What's more, although it is a spark, I am only afraid of burning the plain," Ma Xianglin said worriedly, "The famine in Shaanxi last year was no better than that of the Jianzhou Jurchens. But according to Ma Biao came back and said that I know that some of the children of the clan in Daijun went to the border of Shanxi with the armor and swords left by the sect and joined those displaced people. ”

Zheng Haizhu listened solemnly, his face was solemn, and he was really not surprised in his heart.

The problem of Shaanxi Liukou in the Ming Dynasty began to ignite at about this time.

Li Zicheng is now about ten years old, but before him, there are still many exile leaders with a resounding reputation and acceptable combat effectiveness, just when they have emerged in the past few years.

Therefore, the reform of the economic and tax system is also on the way.

Zheng Haizhu took the pen, wrote down several important tasks one by one, looked up at Ma Xianglin and said: "I will go back to Beijing and get you a salary, so that I can recruit troops and horses and build Daning Town." By the way, there is one more thing, believe me, I have to send Fengyi to you. ”

The look of longing flashed in Ma Xianglin's eyes, and then turned desolate: "I know, you are actually the same as me, and you have never really believed in the imperial court. ”

Half a month later, Zheng Haizhu returned to Beijing with the national letter stamped with the seal of Chahar Lindan Khan.

After Changping, when the city wall of Beijing was in sight, someone rushed to greet him.

"Grandpa Wei, so polite?" Zheng Haizhu stepped out of the carriage and said to Wei Zhongxian, not a greeting, but a joke, "After the spring and the weather is warm, will you have nothing to do?" ”

Wei Zhongxian offered a face full of sincerity: "Even if it is still cold, Mrs. Zheng's frame, I still have to pick up Old Wei." Fortunately, the children at the bottom are reliable, we heard yesterday that you rested in Changping, this morning as soon as the Desheng Gate opened, Lao Wei and I hit the horse and galloped. ”

Zheng Haizhu looked at the two small firefighters following behind Wei Zhongxian, and instructed Huang Zude to reward one of them with a gray squirrel skin collar, before continuing to ask Wei Zhongxian: "What's the urgency, you have to block me on the official road outside Beijing." ”

Wei Zhongxian did not hide his expression: "Old Wei, I don't seem to be able to hide this from my wife." That's right, I'm here to give you an errand, the bad official who framed you the first time you entered the palace, Ding Yun, let's clean it up for you. ”
