Chapter 32 Offsetting the merits and demerits

79 Read.Read.The mouth of the well in the net courtyard is still covered with a big stone mill, Da Kui can't help but let go of his heart, since the stone mill is still there, then Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen must still be in the well, Da Kui commanded the soldiers to lift the stone mill and put it down with a rope, and after a short time, he pulled up two corpses

Da Kui was not only a little dumbfounded when he saw these two corpses, how did he die, Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen were knocked unconscious and thrown into the well, and they were all wearing heavy armor, and they would not sink when they saw the water, so it was strange that they saw that the two corpses had soaked all night, and their hands and feet were swollen and their faces were so swollen that they led the military captain to Da Kui and asked carefully: "Captain Zhang, what should we do next?"

Da Kui sighed and replied, "Send the two corpses back to the garrison to hand over to the marshal."

The captain nodded, ordered the soldiers to dismantle the door panel, and carried the bodies of Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen back to the garrison

The soldiers put the bodies of Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen in the hall of the garrison mansion, and then they each withdrew from the corridor, Xu Da looked at Da Kui standing in the hall, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at the 'Dragon Yin Sword' that Da Kui inserted in his waist

"Captain Zhang, where did your sword come from," Xu Da asked lightly

Da Kui asked, pointed at Zhang Liangbi and said: "It was taken from the enemy general Zhang Liangbi, this sword is Chang Yuchun, Chang's eldest brother Chang was assassinated, the sword was stolen by a murderer, and handed it to Zhang Liangbi."

Xu Da's face sank when he heard this, and then he ordered the guards beside him: "Bring all the generals and colonels above the prisoners to see me," the guards took the order, and then walked out of the hall

Xu Da said to Da Kui in a deep voice: "This sword is a gift from Emperor Taizu to General Chang, and this sword has been recaptured today, and it will be returned to its original owner" Xu Da's words meant to take back this sword

Da Kui's mind turned but he said: "Back then, I competed with Brother Chang, and said that if there was a loss of the Longquan Sword, I would use the Longyin Sword to counter it, and now I, Zhang Dakui, have been convicted and demoted, and the Taizu reward has been fully recovered, and the Longquan Sword is naturally no exception, and the Longquan Sword has been lost, and it should be offset with the Longyin Sword."

What is the reason for this, Xu Da couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then asked: "What is the relationship between you and Ben Shuai's oath when you played this martial arts competition and you were convicted and demoted?"

Da Kui's face sank: "I hit it off with Brother Chang at first sight, and now Brother Chang was killed by a traitor, Zhang Dakui should avenge him," he said, pointing to Zhang Liangbi's corpse next to him, and continued: "This person once said that it was Fang Jiutian of Miao Jiang who killed Brother Chang, but Fang Jiutian was a subordinate of King Liang of Yunnan."

Xu Da listened to it for a long time and didn't understand what it meant, and couldn't help asking: "So what, how do you take revenge?"

Da Kui smiled slightly and said: "Although Zhang Dakui is a martial artist, taking Yunnan is just a matter of probing for things."

Xu Da stood up in surprise when he heard this: "There is no joke in the army, do you know what you are talking about"

Although today's Ming Dynasty occupies the north and south of the river, but Gansu has expanded Timur (Wang Baobao) and Li Siqi of Lanzhou, Yunnan has Liang Wang Thorn Valmi and Dali descendant Duan Ming, this is the two major crux of today's Ming Dynasty, Marshal Xu Da once vowed to recover the world for Emperor Taizu, and Gansu and Yunnan are also Marshal Xu Da's two heart diseases

Da Kui smiled and didn't answer, Xu Da waved his hand when he saw this: "Captain Zhang, go and rest" Da Kui's thoughts, Xu Da knew very well, it was nothing more than to ask for soldiers and horses, and he wanted official positions, and in this way, he naturally became innocent

Da Kui withdrew from the hall of the garrison mansion and was taken by the soldiers to the back house, where the courtyard was quiet and elegant, and the house was clean and tidy, but it was a good place for Da Kui to sleep in his heart, but he didn't expect that Yang Xiaohu was also here

When he came to the room and sat down, Yang Xiaohu opened his mouth and said: "The marshal told me to take care of my father-in-law, and my father-in-law will rest first, and I will go and get you some good wine and meat."

Da Kui has been running around in private these days, fighting for his life, but he has eaten a full meal there seriously, and when he heard this, he hurriedly said: "Go quickly, go quickly, I'm really hungry."

Yang Xiaohu smiled, got up and walked out of the room, Da Kui came to the inner room, looked at the carved bed, the golden silk quilt, and then looked at the gray face of himself, and then turned back and went out of the inner room, opened the door, and saw that there were two soldiers guarding the door

Da Kui then ordered: "You go to fetch water, I will bathe and change clothes," and the two soldiers took the order

The soldier brought a bath bucket and fetched water, Da Kui Meimei took a bath, changed her clothes, and ate a full meal, and then returned to the inner room to sleep, Da Kui was really tired, and slept until noon on the second day

Changing clothes, getting up, getting out of the door, looking around at the two soldiers still standing in front of the door, Da Kui said with a smile: "Two hard work, you can go to the room to renew the tea", the two soldiers were flattered, but where did they dare to make a mistake

Da Kui smiled and walked towards the courtyard

Although it is the back house of the garrison house, but the cloister, rockery, winding path, secluded houses, pavilions, carved beams and painted columns, has a unique charm

At this moment, it is late autumn, and it is gloomy, I am afraid that it will snow, Da Kui is walking in the garden, Yang Xiaohu hugged a big piece in his hand and looked for it

"Father-in-law" Yang Xiaohu ran to Da Kui's side and said with a smile: "This is the marshal asked me to give you, you put on the weather, don't freeze your body, don't freeze your body," said Da Kui, and draped it on his body

Da Kui smiled and accepted this gift happily, what made Da Kui happy was not this dress, but courtesy, since Marshal Xu Daneng condescended to give this clothes, it shows that he has made a consequence of his crimes

Sure enough, Yang Xiaohu continued with a smile: "The marshal has rewarded the meritorious people of the three armies in the past few days, and he has also been promoted to a thousand households."

Da Kui was stunned when he heard this, looked back at Yang Xiaohu and asked: "You won the martial arts and entered the Beijing Palace to try martial arts, and then followed you, Uncle Tang's subordinates are also said to be the official positions of the five grades, why are there thousands of households today?"

Yang Xiaohu's face turned red when he heard this: "I still take care of food without soldiers."

Da Kui turned his head to look at Yang Xiaohu suddenly: "What kind of food" Yang Xiaohu was startled but nodded

Da Kui couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pointed at Yang Xiaohu with an extremely angry look: "You said that you are in charge of the grain now at noon, and you still asked your father-in-law to stand in the snow and be hungry and asked me to tell me what is good about you."

Yang Xiaohu suddenly realized and hurriedly said: "Father-in-law, don't blame the child, let's go get some wine and dinner," he said and turned around to leave, but then turned around and asked: "I don't know what my father-in-law wants to eat."

Da Kui smiled and said: "Naturally, what is delicious and what is delicious"

Yang Xiaohu said with a smile: "Marshal Xu Da said, ask the best restaurant in the city to send someone to cook three meals a day for you, you can eat whatever you want," Da Kui was overjoyed when he heard this, this is not because of some to eat, but what you want to eat, what you have depends on whether you have the ability to eat, presumably in the future, the Ming army will have their own place

Marshal Xu Da found out the ins and outs of the murder of Chang Yuchun within a few days, and it turned out that the Northern Yuan wanted to get rid of Chang Yuchun and Xu Da, so he sent a secret envoy to Yunnan to transfer the master Liang Wang to stab Valmi and sent Miao Jiang Poison King Fang Jiutian to handle the matter, at that time the Ming army had conquered the whole territory of Shandong, and was fighting with Timur in Henan, Fang Jiutian traveled thousands of miles to Henan, and did not want to expand Timur, and was defeated again and again and withdrew from the border of Henan

At the time of the great victory of the Ming army, because Da Kui was in Yunnan, he heard that the Yuan Court was going to assassinate Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, and he had sent someone to send a letter, and Chang Yuchun discussed with Xu Da, and decided that Xu Da would stay in Jiangbei, and Chang Yuchun would return to the dynasty with his troops

Fang Jiutian learned the news of Chang Yuchun's class teacher, secretly followed Chang Yuchun's soldiers and horses to the Liuchuan River, when Chang Yuchun's army set up camp, Fang Jiutian took advantage of the night to poison the wine and food, Chang Yuchun was caught off guard, and after being poisoned by Chang Yuchun, Fang Jiutian stole the Longyin Sword, rushed back to the Ganshan Territory overnight, and handed over the Longyin Sword to Zhang Liangbi to show that he had completed the mission, and afterwards Fang Jiutian returned to Yunnan and there was no news, which was the cause and effect of General Chang Yuchun's violent death

Half a month later, Tang He's troops and Lu Zhongheng's soldiers and horses also returned to Qingyang City, followed by two holy decrees from Jingshi Yingtian

The first holy decree: the Ming army recovered all parts of Jiangbei, Xu Da was the first to be promoted to the right prime minister of Zhongshu Province (the Central Plains is Zhongshu Province) to reclaim the tun army and train soldiers and horses

The second holy decree: The criminal officer Zhang Dakui will offset the merits and demerits with the army

When Da Kui received this holy decree, one of the first two big Xu Da led all the generals to say He Da Kui was a little unclear, so he couldn't help but ask Xu Da: "Marshal, what does it mean to listen to the army?"

Xu Da smiled and said, "Congratulations to General Zhang on his success."

"General" Da Kui was a little confused

Xu Da stroked his beard lightly and said: "The commander has made up his mind, and you will be the forward general of the commander to command the vanguard army of 20,000 soldiers and horses."

Da Kui was shocked when he heard this: "Marshal Rong Yu Zhang Dakui is willing to be a grass man again, and he will not ask the marshal to be sympathetic to the official."

Xu Da's face couldn't help but be pale when he heard this, but then he smiled and said: "You are a dignified second-class Beijing official, but now Hu Weiyong and Lord Hu have taken over the post of Jiangnan Tongzheng envoy, so you can't reinstate your official grace...... That's it," Xu Daluo groaned before saying: "Since you don't want to be a general, then be a local official."

Da Kui was not only overjoyed in his heart: "My subordinates' hometown is Jeju, Shandong, can I let my subordinates return to Shandong to take up their posts?"

Xu Da smiled and said: "The appointment and dismissal of local officials is not the ability of the commander, but I have a way to make you wish."

Da Kui hurriedly asked, "What is the method?"

Xu Da mysteriously waved his hand, Da Kui hurriedly whispered, Xu Da said softly: "As long as you take Lanzhou, I will promote you to be the garrison of Lanzhou, and when the time comes, you can be transferred to Shandong, I don't know what to do."

When Da Kui heard this, he couldn't help but cry bitterly in his heart: "The marshal doesn't know that there are still nearly 100,000 troops in Lanzhou, and Li Siqi is in cahoots with Timur, and if he goes to Lanzhou, he will have to experience a bloody battle."

Xu Da smiled and asked, "Are you scared?"

Da Kui's chest straightened and said: "As long as the marshal has the letter to fight Lanzhou, I will take the lead."
