Chapter five hundred and ninety fourth deceiving
After all, Dongjiang Town went deep behind enemy lines and encountered the danger of attacks from the Later Jin soldiers from time to time. It was not as fast as the rest of the border troops. Except for the internal and external troops, the remaining soldiers were not available. Dongjiang Town was completely different, which also caused the situation of its soldiers being rebellious and arrogant. ([[[(Chinese?( ? ]]).
After Mao Chenglu left, Cheng Fang and others were led to an empty room to wait.
Seeing that there were no outsiders on both sides, Li Shouxin said to Cheng Fang: "Brother Cheng, Dongjiang Town's approach is very unauthorized. If this account is owed credit, it may not be possible to pay back the money depending on their virtue."
"So you can't owe it." Cheng Fang smiled and said, "The lord has already given instructions. If they owe us as much as they owe us, they will use wood and Dingkou to pay for it!"
Li Shouxin was shocked and said, "How much does this cost?"
Cheng Fang smiled bitterly and spread his hands, saying, "I have also asked the adults, and the adults said, "No matter what, Han Xin is the more soldiers, the better."
Li Shouxin and his subordinates looked at each other. They were not very nervous about the mission to Taiwan before. Now they understood that Zhang Han's emphasis on Taiwan is definitely not under the grassland. He didn't know how much money he had to pay to buy Dingkou here. These people must have moved to Taiwan. It was impossible to move through the prefectures to Datong or the grassland. That was too taboo. In the Ming Dynasty, Junzhen traded privately and traded, and violated taboos. A large number of Dingkou was free to move at will. Dongjiang Town was specially ordered to allow business, and He Yusheng moved Dingkou to a place like Taiwan, which avoided the two biggest taboos. Otherwise, it would be impossible to do such a thing.
Mao Wenlong did not ask Cheng Fang, Li Shouxin and others to wait for more than two quarters of an hour. In less than two minutes, a general wearing Dusi costume came to lead the way, walked through several times into the courtyard, and arrived at Mao Wenlong's signing room.
"I'll give a look at Mao Shuai."
"I've met the general."
Cheng Fang bowed halfway, but Li Shouxin and others stood upright and saluted.
"Brother Cheng, there is no need to be too polite." Mao Wenlong sat upright behind the table, looking unhurried and powerful. Cheng Fang and him had not seen each other for only two or three months, and he felt that Mao Wenlong's power was becoming more and more obvious.
After Cheng Fang got up, Mao Wenlong glanced at Li Shouxin and others and looked at him coldly for a long time.
In Dongjiang Town, many generals, guerrillas and other generals were known as generals, and thousands of leaders, and they were not allowed to look at each other with cold eyes like Mao Wenlong.
The entire Dongjiang Town hosted hundreds of thousands of refugees, and more than 100,000 reported soldiers. There were nearly 30,000 real soldiers. Hundreds of thousands of people could survive by relying on Mao Wenlong. In a word, countless heads fell to the ground, and countless soldiers, under Mao Wenlong's order, went through fire and water, and all of them followed.
Such a status and experience of leading 200 people to fight behind enemy lines have already made Mao Wenlong have a majestic temperament that is not angry and arrogant.
Besides, there were Mao Chenglu and other inner-district generals present. Inside and outside the room, dozens of inner-districts were pierced armor and swords, and they could follow orders at any time. As long as Mao Wenlong was willing, he would cough lightly, and the people in front of him could immediately be cut into meat sauce.
Under Mao Wenlong's intentional pressure, Li Shouxin always maintained a calm attitude and always maintained a military appearance that was neither humble nor arrogant.
"What's his name?" Mao Wenlong turned his eyes to Cheng Fang and asked lightly.
Cheng Fang smiled and said, "Li Shouxin, commander of the Fourth Regiment of the Shang regiment army."
"How many troops are leading in your merchant army?"
"Less than three hundred people."
"Yes." Mao Wenlong looked at Li Shouxin again and said, "My subordinates have tens of thousands of troops and Dingkou. They hold their breath and bow to the orders in front of me. They are not as open and upright as this person."
This was also a compliment. Li Shouxin held his fist and bowed, saying, "Shishou Mao was too awarded."
Mao Wenlong snorted coldly and said, "I heard that you are going to recruit three thousand strong men here and go to Taiwan?"
Cheng Fang replied: "Yes, my home advocates that the adults also have a foundation in Taiwan, where there are Dutch red barbarians who have committed trouble and seize territory."
Mao Wenlong said disrespectfully: "The Red Barbarians spyed on the coast a hundred years ago and were defeated many times, which shows that they are incompetent. However, you only have more than 200 veterans and it is also a bit difficult to bring 3,000 people to the top."
Cheng Fang flattered: "Mao Shuai is not the same as 200 people who are responsible for regaining lost land. Although we are far from being able to compare with Mao Shuai, Hong Mao Yi is afraid that he is not as good as Jiannu."
Mao Wenlong laughed and said, "Brother Cheng is still so good at speaking. I heard that you once sneaked into Ningyuan from the Thirteen Mountains and received the reception from the Sun Jingluo Pavilion Master. He praised you very much. It would be a pity that you have not been under my command of a talent like this."
Cheng Fang said calmly: "At the end of the day, you will have to be trusted by the boss and promoted it in many ways, so that you can be today."
Mao Wenlong nodded slightly and said, "You and Yusheng did not change their surnames to servants, but they are all very loyal... Forget it, let's not talk about gossip, Mao Chenglu said, you agree to all the conditions, right?"
"Yes!" Cheng Fang said readily: "Mao Shuai wants to ship the goods. We also need the wood, dingkou, fur, Dongzhu, ginseng, tiger bones and other things here, which are also very easy to take off. If you want to save silver, please give it a promise."
Although it is a fair deal, Cheng Fang's tone is very low and he feels like he wants to others.
Among the officers, only Li Shouxin looked motionless, and the rest of the officers were a little angry. He and Yusheng had always monopolized everything. Others begged for He Yusheng. Even the Donglu and Beilu were very polite in trade. Even the Beilu broke up, they never showed such a lofty attitude!
Mao Wenlong showed a look of satisfaction on his face, thought for a while, and waved his hand and said, "That's it. After all, when I was in trouble, Lord Zhang had helped me many times and just became my official to repay this favor."
After saying that, Mao Wenlong asked about Wang Xinyi's impeachment. There were several people dressed in literati and poets around him, and they were also listening. From time to time, people leaned over and whispered to Mao Wenlong.
Cheng Fang sighed in his heart that this place is indeed different from the original one. When Mao Wenlong first came, he was just a guerrilla. He finally became a general in a town in more than two years. His troops also changed from more than two hundred to hundreds of thousands, and his territory expanded from several small islands to the border between North Korea and the Ming Dynasty. I heard that next year, Dongjiang Town would still have plans to fight back. In the second year of Tianqi, there were many records of Dongjiangtang reporting merits. The biggest one was to report merit and kill more than 5,000 enemies. However, there was no level evidence and the court did not accept it.
In addition to the larger territory, large population, and the generals gradually grew up, Mao Wenlong also had more inner courtesy, and these literati aides should have been attracted by these more than half a year.
All the scenes are completely different from when Cheng Fang came here before.
Mao Wenlong seemed to be very concerned about Zhang Han's affairs, and also expressed his admiration for Zhang Han's final attack from the Donglin Party and his means of clinging to Wei Zhongxian. After facing the saint, he got the head of the head and became the second-rank commander and commander of the second-rank commander and served as the garrison. It was also amazing.
Although the position of military officers in the garrison in the dynasty is no longer valuable, the second-rank Dutong is close to the top level of military officers. In Dongjiang Town, you must at least get a general in charge to join Dutong. Zhang Han's identity may also be a general in charge or deputy general in Dongjiang Town. He has met the emperor and received the emperor's eyes. His status is completely different from that of ordinary military officers.
Mao Wenlong also exclaimed and said, "Even I have never seen the emperor!"
Cheng Fang flattered and said: "Mao Mao opened the Dongjiang River and repeatedly defeated the Dongjiang River's sharp edge. He made great contributions to the state. In the future, he will win the Wumen. The emperor will be above the Wumen. Mao and Dongjiang soldiers will be offered the old slaves and other captive chiefs under the Wumen. The emperor will take them with the Han general, and then personally untied the battle robe for Mao and named him a marquis. That is the peak of the general."
Mao Wenlong burst into laughter when he heard this.
As Cheng Fang said, Mao Wenlong never hid his ambition to be a title. As a military general, how could anyone not want to be a title of a marquis?
"Brother Cheng can go and find Chen Jisheng, Mao Youjun and the others." Mao Wenlong felt better and waved his hand: "Buy wood, find them, recruit Ding Zhuang to take it away, and find Mao Chenglu."
"Thank you, Mao Shuai."
After meeting Mao Wenlong, he returned to the residence arranged by Dongjiang Town, everyone, including Cheng Fang, breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Dafu muttered: "It's not so tiring to fight with the Northern Territory."
Cheng Fang laughed and said, "What this brother said is, it seems that adults have said that what is more tiring than fighting with the enemy is to cooperate with his own people."
"I have been working with Yusheng before." Li Shouxin also said: "I didn't understand the meaning of my words, but now I know the true intention."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Fang said, "I don't know Brother Li's evaluation of Mao Zhennan's behavior?"
"Not a soldier!" Li Shouxin immediately said: "Maybe he is a good commander, but he should not be a good general. Before, I read the Dongjiang Tang Daily, and there were often information on the victory, but I also saw many people questioning it. I had no idea, but the feeling that the Tang Daily was unreliable after reading the road was that the Tang Daily was unreliable. Now it seems that Mao Shuai is a hero, and lies to report good news. Maybe others think it is ridiculous, but with his courage to stay alone overseas and being dragged down by hundreds of thousands of people, this method left a mark in the eyes of the court officials, so that people can know that the important thing in Dongjiang Town is also helpless."
"What about him doing to us?"
"It's just a heroic trick." Li Shouxin said coldly: "He owes us all the favors and the favors of He Yusheng, but a person like him can turn against us, but instead asks us to surrender. This is the skill of a hero. Although this can be successful, I know that there is one person who will never do this and will succeed."
Cheng Fang immediately whispered loudly: "Our Lord!"
Cheng Fang and Li Shouxin laughed together.
A pretty cavalry officer said disdainfully: "How can this person be compared with us?"
Another white-faced cavalry officer also said: "If we adults want to do such shameless things, we Yusheng will have performed better, but the adults cherish their feathers and disdain it."
