Wang Zaijin, the word early Ming Dynasty, the number Yun, is a native of Jun County, Henan. Wanli 20 years of Jinshi, now with the military department of the book and the right deputy capital of the Imperial History, through Liaodong Jizhen, Tianjin Denglai and other places.

But the areas under his actual jurisdiction are only Shanhaiguan and Liaoxi.

Jizhen is under the jurisdiction of Wang Xiangqian, the governor of Jiliao, and Denglai and other places, including Jinzhou Town, are under the jurisdiction of Yuan Keli, the governor of Denglai.

Nominally, Wang Zaijin was in charge of Jinzhou Town, so Yang Chengying wrote several Di Bao, one of which was handed over to Wang Zaijin.

Wang Zaijin learned that the thousand households under his command were detained by Yang Chengying, and he didn't care too much, one thousand households were missing.

But Yang Chengying's report aroused his great interest. Beheading the 200-level bannermen, this military feat is quite good.

Almost at the same time, another piece of good news came from Yiju, and the leader of the Ao Han and Naiman tribes, Xiao Yanqing, and Jianlu clashed against each other, winning and losing.

"Haha, it really works!"

Wang Zaijin said happily: "By rewarding Lin Dan Khan, I made the Mongolian Ao Han and Naiman tribes send troops and almost recovered Yizhou. ”

After that, he picked up the pen and wanted to report the victory to the imperial court.

"Lord Wang, this matter is a little strange."

Yuan Chonghuan, the former soldier of Ning, poured a basin of cold water.

"What's the difference?"

Wang Zaijin said: "Xiao Qingqing said very clearly in the Di newspaper that he and Jianyu had a fierce battle and won and lost each other. ”

"But Yiju is still lost, isn't it?"

Yuan Chonghuan continued to pour cold water, "No matter how fanciful he writes in the newspaper, this is an indisputable fact. ”

Wang Zaijin doesn't like to hear this.

He even felt that Yuan Chonghuan was brainless.

"You can't look at it that way."

Wang Zaijin said: "You think, the Mongols led the army to attack Yizhou, this is a good start, as long as we are rewarded, the Mongols will continue to fight for us." ”

"Since it's a reward, it should also be given directly to Xiao Qingqing, not to Lin Dan Khan."

Yuan Chonghuan said, "I have long heard that Lin Dan Khan has the name of the Great Khan, and he has no ability to command the tribal leaders such as Xiao Xiaoqing. ”

Wang Zaijin's face sank suddenly.

What do you mean by this, you are challenging my reward policy, thinking that Lin Dan Khan should not be given a reward. The Governor of Jiliao, Lord Wang, thinks it's no problem, you actually have a problem.

Therefore, he did not listen to Yuan Chonghuan's persuasion, and insisted on going to the imperial court to apply for a reward of one million from the imperial court, in order to coax the Mongolian tribes to continue to use troops against the Houjin.

The capital, the Imperial Palace.

"Great victory, great victory......"

Wei Zhongxian held the newspaper and trotted all the way, shouting to the place where the Emperor of the Apocalypse was doing carpentry.

"A big victory?" Zhu Youxiao asked curiously, "What kind of victory?" ”

"Your Majesty, Jinzhou Town defeated the slave soldiers in Zhenjiang Fort, beheaded 3,200 ranks, plotted against 3,000 soldiers including Chen Liangce, the Chinese army in Zhenjiang Fort, and captured Tong Yangzhen, the general of Jianyu, and several others."

Wei Zhongxian said, holding the newspaper above his head and waiting for the emperor to read it.

"Really?!" Zhu Youxiao hurriedly put down the planer, took the newspaper and read it carefully, and nodded from time to time.

After the defeat of Liaoxi, a lot of bad things almost annoyed the Emperor of the Apocalypse to death, and Jinzhou Town became his only consolation.

After reading the newspaper, Zhu Youxiao said excitedly: "Okay, Yang Chengying really lived up to my trust in him." First bombarded with artillery, and then set up ambushes to surround and kill the slave soldiers who were trapped and lacking horses. Such a simple thing, how can others not do it. ”

Wei Zhongxian didn't understand, so he had to accompany the smiling face.

This strategy may seem simple, but it is actually very demanding for the training of soldiers.

For example, if the artillery unit at that time was replaced by Peng Haigu's artillery unit, Houjin's casualties would have risen to a higher level.

Because the artillery unit under the command of Peng Qigu has mastered the technique of artillery shooting and calibration under the training of Sun Yuanhua, and the artillery is accurate.

And Yang Chengying's artillery unit was temporarily formed, and it was already very good that it could not explode because of a mistake in loading gunpowder.

Taking advantage of the apocalypse emperor's happiness, Wei Zhongxian took out another notebook.

"Your Majesty, this is the transcript of King Jiliao Jinglu in Jin. He said in his notebook that the Mongols were moved by the silver and sent troops to attack Uiju.

Although it was not successful, it also shows that this method is feasible. Therefore, I want to apply for a reward of one million from His Majesty, but I wonder what His Majesty's holy will is? ”

"What? One million taels! ”

Zhu Youxiao sat on the dragon chair with his ass, "He's robbing, right?" Where can I get him a million taels! ”

"Your Majesty, although Wang Zaijin is suspected of having a lion open his mouth, it is also a fact that the Mongols attacked Yizhou, and if you don't give a reward, you can't say it."

Wei Zhongxian said respectfully.

"That's all the money, if it is given to Wang Zaijin, then what should I do with the first-level silver in Jinzhou Town?"

Zhu Youxiao was a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, Yang Chengying is very rich. He privately gave the soldiers a monthly salary of one or three cents, a grain of rice, and a set of clothes for each season.

Moreover, the imperial court has already allocated him 240,000 taels of internal funds, and it seems that it is impossible to give Jinzhou Town a reward.

It is better to give the money to Wang Zaijin and let him appease the Mongols. ”

Wei Zhongxian's idea, Zhu Youxiao felt very reasonable when he heard it.

So, Zhu Youxiao issued an order to give 80,000 taels of silver, and Wang Xiangqian, the governor of Jiliao, and Wang Zaijin, the king of Jiliao, discussed who should give money.

As for Jinzhou Town, Zhu Youxiao only issued an order to encourage you, and said that you were given 240,000 taels of silver before, but this time you will not be rewarded.

This didn't make Yang Chengying's nose crooked.

240,000 taels of silver, which is the salary of the soldiers of Jinzhou Town, is the salary.

The head obtained by killing the enemy and beheading is a reward in exchange for money.

How can anyone take wages as a reward?

If you don't give anything else, you have to give the first level of money for 200 flags, right?

Yang Chengying read it for a long time, but the edict did not mention a word.

"The first level of money, not a penny!"

Wu Sangui said depressedly, "Let's work hard, at least make up for the ammunition money consumed." ”

"Give what to give, you can see at a glance that this is a bad idea of some people."

Yang Chengying stood up and looked out of the tent: "They all think I have money, so they don't give me money." ”

Outside the tent were soldiers on patrol.

It is located on Iron Mountain, backed by Phi Island. A large number of civilians stayed on Phi Island temporarily, and soldiers stayed in Iron Mountain.

The aim was, of course, to separate the soldiers from the common people and to avoid lax military discipline.

The soldiers under his command, Yang Chengying did not have to worry, he was worried about Chen Liangce and the newly attached Ming soldiers, they would not be able to enforce military discipline.

"What now?" Wu Sangui asked.

"Cold salad. This time, I can only count it in my own account, and send the reward first. ”

Yang Chengying sighed and said helplessly.

"Fortunately, there will be 100,000 taels of money coming in......"

Before Wu Sangui finished speaking, he was stopped by Yang Cheng's sharp eyes.

Zu Tianbi reprimanded: "Sangui, some words are rotten in the stomach, and they must not be said casually." ”

"Yes, I know that's wrong." Wu Sangui was remorseful.

"Don't take it as an example."

Yang Chengying let out a long breath.
