Wang Gang returned to the county seat of Mayi, went to the market to buy some wine and meat, and came to the inn.

When I saw the small house made of bluestone, I couldn't help but think of when I first came here.

At that time, I didn't even have anything to eat, and it was an old man here who took him in.

Wang Gang knocked on the door and shouted.

"Uncle Zhang"

Uncle Zhang pushed them away and saw a general with a sword hanging from his waist.

Although he was not wearing armor, he was also heroic.

I didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said that the general would come in.

"Uncle Zhang, it's my little brother of the Wang family"

Wang Gang said, taking off his hat. Only then did Uncle Zhang see clearly that he was a descendant who lived in the inn a few days ago. Later, I went to Yanmen Pass, and once asked someone to bring a message back.

Now he is a general.

"Little brother of the Wang family?" Uncle Zhang screamed suspiciously

"Hey, Uncle Zhang," Wang Gang said, stepping forward to help Uncle Zhang and walking towards the back room.

Wang Gang arranged for two people to go to the room to rest. He took the wine and meat and came to Uncle Zhang's room.

Set the meat on the low table, find two clay bowls, and pour the wine.

Kneel down opposite Uncle Zhang. Roughly told him about what happened in Yanmen Pass. As for the exchange, I didn't say anything.

Then he picked up the pottery bowl and said

"My king has just been able to have today, thanks to Uncle Zhang's acceptance, this bowl of wine is a tribute to Uncle Zhang, thank Uncle Zhang for his great kindness."

Uncle Zhang picked up the pottery bowl and said.

"The little brother of the Wang family is serious"

After speaking, he drank all the wine in the bowl, closed his eyes and savored for a while.

"The little brother of the Wang family is in Yanmen Pass, and it is not a long-term solution"

When Wang Gang heard Uncle Zhang say this, he believed that Uncle Zhang was not an ordinary person, and he could see his current situation at a glance.

Wang Gang poured another bowl of wine for Uncle Zhang.

"Please also ask Uncle Zhang for advice"

"Don't dare to be instructed," Uncle Zhang picked up the wine bowl and drank it all.

"The little brother of the Wang family doesn't know the key when he first comes here, let me say it slowly."

Wang Gang helped Uncle Zhang pour wine again.

"Uncle Zhang, please speak"

"In the past, because the Huns made trouble, the county order led the troops to suppress the bandits to no avail, thanks to the Yanmen County Zhang Sima turned the tide and kept the Yanmen Pass from losing."

Chambers paused and continued

"When Zhang Sima left, he recommended that the little brother temporarily guard Yanmen Pass, and the county order was also happy to be a favor" Wang Gang nodded when he heard this, similar to what he thought.

Uncle Zhang continued.

"Yanmen Pass is the gateway of Mayi, and it is also an important way for Mayi to collect taxes

The toll can feed the 400 county soldiers in Mayi City. ”

Wang Gang's heart sank when he heard this, he knew that Yanmen Pass was important, but he didn't expect it to be important here.

"Then why were there only fifty county soldiers stationed before," Wang Gang was a little puzzled.

"That's because Yanmen Pass is not under the jurisdiction of Mayi County."

Wang Gang was even more confused when he heard this.

Uncle Zhang took a sip of wine and slowly tasted it for a while.

"The Xiongnu were divided, the Northern Xiongnu fled to Mobei, and the Southern Xiongnu attached themselves to the Han Dynasty and recuperated in the Hetao area.

After a pause, he continued

"Today's saint, in order to control the Huns, set up a general to protect the Huns. There are four lieutenants. Captain of the Huns, Captain of Hugh Tu, Captain of Wuhuan, Captain of the Cavalry. ”

Uncle Zhang said, looking to the northwest, as if he could see something through the house.

"There are 2,000 lieutenants in each of the four departments, plus the troops directly under General Zhonglang, a total of 10,000 people, who are in charge of the military in the northern part of the state, which is directly under the imperial court and stationed at various checkpoints. Of course, Yanmen Pass is also among them. It's just that recently, the court has been in chaos, the military salary has been seriously deducted, and the fourth lieutenant has also shrunk greatly."

Uncle Zhang took a sip of wine and continued.

"Even in the clouds, the alien races in the two counties of Shuofang could not be pacified, and the general of the Hun Zhonglang also hid in Jinyang City. Therefore, Yanmen Pass was managed by Mayi, and the Mayi County Order did not have the right to appoint and dismiss. ”

Wang Gang only explained now when he heard that it turned out that Yanmen Pass went out alone.

Uncle Zhang continued.

"Although the Mayi County Order cannot appoint and dismiss the chief general of Yanmen Pass, it can send troops to temporarily govern it."

Wang Gang felt tricky after listening to it.

"Please also ask Uncle Zhang to teach me" After speaking, he stood up and shook deeply at Uncle Zhang.

Wang Gang believes that since Zhang Bo can say it so clearly, there must be a way.

"If you want to be the chief general of Yanmen Pass, you need to get through the relationship between the Huns and the generals. But it is impossible for the Hun Zhonglang to give you a single soldier, and there is no point

Military salary"

After Zhang Bo finished speaking, he looked at Wang Gang with burning eyes, as if he was smiling.

"If you want to lead troops to garrison Yanmen Pass and solve the soldiers' food, clothing, housing and transportation, you must open up the relationship between the Mayi County Order. However, the Mayi County Decree did not have the right to appoint and dismiss the chief general of Yanmen Pass.

Maybe one day you will be appointed and you will be gone. That's your biggest problem at the moment."

This is a bit like an unsolvable proposition, and Wang Gang is a little discouraged.

"Uncle Zhang, there are twenty-five Hun war horses in the pass."

Then Wang Gang told the matter of exchanging war horses with the Xiongnu.

Uncle Zhang was taken aback when he heard this, this Wang Gang was really bold. The smuggling of military rations has also been done.

"Little brother of the Wang family, this matter is very important, you must be cautious in handling it, if you are not careful, you will end up in a different place."

Wang Gang broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, thinking that he would be fine if he made up for the military rations.

"What should I do?"

"The matter has come to this point, and we can only take a risk, and the people in the customs must be more co-opted to prevent the news from leaking. The most important thing is to control Yanmen Pass in the name of righteousness, I originally wanted to let the little brother slowly figure it out, but now it seems that it can't be done."

Uncle Zhang's voice was low, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.

"Now you have more than 20 war horses in your hand, and you also have an extra hole card, see if you can knock on the door of the Hun Zhonglang General"

"Please make it clear to Uncle Zhang" Wang Gang hurriedly got up and bowed.

Wang Gang knew that if the problem of his identity could be solved, it would not be a matter of selling military rations. If it can't be solved, the sale of military rations is exposed, which is the reason to kill him.

Seeing that Wang Gang was so sincere, Uncle Zhang also breathed a sigh of relief.

Grab the bowl and drink it all.

"That's it, the old man will run for the little brother, but you must remember that the war horse was obtained by the little brother who went out of the city to exterminate the Huns, and anyone who asks is like this. As for the county government, send two war horses first, and stabilize the county order first. ”

Wang Gang wrote it down by heart.

As soon as it was dawn on the second day, Uncle Zhang rode the inn's bantam pony in the direction of Taiyuan. Looking at the somewhat thin figure on the horse, Wang Gang was moved for a while.

This trip to Taiyuan is a full 400 miles, or rushing in the heavy snow, the difficulty can be imagined. Wang Gang originally intended to let the two people go together, so that they could take care of it, but Uncle Zhang insisted on disagreeing.

Wang Gang had no choice but to give up. Wang Gang came to the county government with two war horses.

The intention was clear, but the county order met Wang Gang. Say something terrible. Heroic boy and that sort of thing. After speaking, he gave Wang Gang some grain and grass, and sent Wang Gang away.

But it didn't come in vain. At least he showed his face in front of the prefectural order, and he gave a gift. The county order will not be silent, and he will be dismissed as the temporary captain.

Wang Gang and two people returned to Yanmen Pass. Continuing his logging career. He didn't dare to let up at all. There's really not much time left for him. Before the beginning of spring, the identity problem must be solved. Otherwise, it's time to calculate the general ledger.

{This chapter is a bit boring, but there is no way, the background must be written clearly, otherwise it will be said little by little later,

Just make it clear all at once. Ladies and gentlemen, if you think it's good, just like it}
