Ma Jin, the son of Ma Lu and the brother of Ma Gui, is in his forties this year, and the official is the chief military officer of Datong.

His younger brother Ma Gui, more than ten years ago and Gao pragmatic met in Datong border pass, at that time it was the garrison of Desheng Fort, and now eleven or twelve years have passed, he has also been the deputy chief soldier of Xuanfu - he and his brother Ma Jin have generally been serving in Xuanda and the three towns of Shanxi, but they are usually not arranged in the same town.

Ma Jin was promoted to the general army as the deputy general soldier after Ma Fang Zhishi, and he had a good relationship with Ma Fang, plus the Ma family has been guarding the front line of Xuanda Shanxi for generations, and he must have been attached to the Jin Party and thus became a vassal of the Gao Party, so Ma Jin has great respect for Gao Pragmatism, and respectfully stepped forward to salute.

"The last general, Ma Jin, welcome Qin Cha to Datong." [No wind note: Baidu Encyclopedia "Ma Gui" entry records that his brother Ma Jin "died in the fifth year of Wanli", this article must be wrong! ]

Because it is clearly recorded in the "Records of Shenzong", Ma Jin was still in office in the tenth year of Wanli. Even in the eleventh year of Wanli, he was also impeached by the Imperial History Chen Xingxue, because Ma Jin's son Ma Chengxun blackmailed a jade belt and two hundred taels of silver to the governor Zheng Luo to celebrate his birthday.

In the following month, Zheng Luo, the governor of Xuanda, defended Ma Jin and said that the rumors he had heard were wrong, but Zheng Luo still asked for his resignation. In the twelfth year of Wanli, the Ministry of War once again made it clear that Ma Jin was dismissed from his post and held accountable - please note this time, the twelfth year of Wanli was after Zhang Siwei had returned to his hometown, at this time there was no one in the Ma Jin Dynasty, and the Jin Party was suppressed by some people, so Ma Jin, a general-level general, would be overthrown in such a name.

As for Ma Gui, he was lucky, he was transferred to Ningxia as the chief soldier at the end of the tenth year of Wanli, so he was not implicated too deeply. It can also be seen from the above records that Baidu Encyclopedia really can't be believed. 】

Ma Jin is now wearing no armor, and he is bowing his hand.

Gao pragmatically replied with a smile and said, "Mr. Ma, this official came here twelve years ago, and he was close to you, and it is not too late to make up for it today." ”

"It is a privilege to be able to meet Gao Gong in person."

The disparity in the status of Wenchen military generals is undoubtedly revealed from Ma Jin's tone, he Ma Jin is twice the age of Gao Pragmatic, and he is still a dignified general soldier, and he has to be called "Gao Gong".

Gao pragmatically smiled and asked again, "What about your brother Magui?" Still in Xuanfu? The tone of high pragmatism is a typical model of top-to-bottom talking.

But Ma Jin didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all, and bowed slightly and said: "Lao Gaogong is worried, and his younger brother is indeed in Xuanfu." The younger brother often mentions the demeanor of Gao Gong in Desheng Fort in the past, and when he sees it today, Jin Fang knows that he is even more famous, Gao Gong is "really the leader in the past two hundred years", outstanding and outstanding, and the posture of heaven and man makes people ashamed of themselves. ”

Belch...... Your brother is much more assycophant than your brother, so it's no wonder that you get promoted a little faster.

Gao was pragmatic and humble for a few words, and then asked: "The Ma family soldiers have not had a big battle to fight in the past ten years, and they won't be lazy now, right?" This time, the official came, but it is possible to move troops. ”

"May move troops" is quite unexpected by Ma Jin, if it is in front of ordinary people, Ma Jin will definitely not change his face and heart will not beat, and he will brag about it first.

However, Gao Pragmatic's "partial division of Annan" is a great achievement, which has just been vigorously promoted by the imperial court, and Ma Jin does not know that Gao Pragmatic is actually not very knowledgeable, the so-called "people's name, the shadow of the tree", he does not dare to bet that Gao Pragmatic does not understand military affairs, so he had to honestly say: "This, it usually looks fine, but the last general feels that it is not as good as ten years ago, if it continues like this, for example, in another twenty years, then maybe it will not be good." ”

Very well, this remark sounded more sincere, and Gao was quite satisfied with it—because he also estimated it that way.

However, what he is satisfied with is Ma Jin's attitude, not the state of Ma Jiajun.

The Ma family has been a generalist for generations, and now people have said that "East Li and West Ma", the core and main force of the Ma family army, "Da Bing", can not really be scrapped, otherwise what will happen to the Ningxia Bibai Rebellion?

This life is different from the original history, I didn't intend to let people usurp the control of the Jin Party in Shanxi, and I also wouldn't allow Li Rusong's Liaodong Army to come to the northwest to quell the rebellion - Xuanda Shanxi and Shaanxi are the territory of my school, let the Liaodong Army come over to quell the rebellion, wouldn't it seem that I have no one?

Besides, their Ma family has a glorious historical heritage, known as the "Ma family general", if this is scrapped in my hands, it will be really ridiculous.

In fact, the development of the Ma family was still a civilian official at the beginning, and then it changed from civil to military.

At that time, during the Zhengde period, Ma Zhang, the right guard, was admitted to the Jinshi from Datong Mansion and became the head of the Ministry of Rites. The ancestral home of the Ma family is the upper valley of Qishan, that is, the Qishan area of Gansu in later generations. At that time, the border pass was in urgent need of war horses, so the imperial court let Ma Zhang return to his hometown, and the official was named the imperial servant, who was responsible for shepherding the war horses.

Ma Zhang took office and served as the imperial servant, but he did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and expanded the two pastures in the south and north as official pastures. All tea horses, Fanren tribute horses, Si Shui Temple grazing, the deployment of high-quality horses for breeding.

However, due to the loss of the Hetao and the need for a large number of horses in the imperial court, Ma Zhang felt that there was a shortage of manpower, so he simply did not do anything, and recruited his brother Ma Quan as an enjun, and also raised horses for the imperial court.

This Ma Quan has been familiar with horse nature since he was a child, and he has relied on Ma Zhang's care to become a horse breeder in Taifu Temple, herding horses, raising horses, and training war horses, which is unique. It is also this man who raises horses, Ma Quan, who opened the glory of the Ma family for several generations after that, and laid the foundation for several generations of border generals to shine in the annals of history.

The ancients said: "Straight as a string, the edge of the war; Qu is like a hook, anti-feudal marquis". The two generations after Ma Quan will not talk about it for the time being, just talk about Ma Gui's generation.

The eldest son Ma Jin does not need to be introduced, the second son Ma Fu was originally the most skilled, and he made many military exploits very early, and was regarded as the strongest general of the Ma family's generation, just like Liu Wei when he was a teenager. However, God is jealous of talents, and Mafu has an accident.

Jiajing Gengshen year, I Da led the iron cavalry to invade Shuipo Temple, Ma Fu led the soldiers to fight on the battlefield, from the time to the time of Shen, fought several times, and the peak of the kill I Da also had to lead the army to retreat, avoiding the edge of Ma Fu.

But after repelling the enemy, Ma Fu was sweating profusely, and remembered that he had repelled the famous Alta with a weak force, and he was very excited, laughing and taking off his helmet and iron armor, and enjoying the wind and coolness.

Who knew that after sweating, the pores suddenly opened, the golden wind entered the bones, the wind and cold hurt the body, and invaded the ointment, and since then he has been ill for a long time, and he died young.

The third son is Ma Gui, he is a noble rank, alias Xiquan. Since he was a child, he has been strong and strong, and when he grows up, he is eight feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a leopard's head and eyes, and his voice is like a bell, and his majesty is extraordinary. In terms of martial arts, he was second only to his second brother Ma Fu in the past, but he was stronger than his eldest brother Ma Jin, and after Ma Fu's death, Ma Gui had no rival among the young generals in the Datong area.

But Magui's luck in his early years was very bad, he followed his father Ma Lu to guard the right guard, because he was eager to capture the defected Qianhu Wei Ang, he accidentally injured people during the capture, and was demoted to a pawn. Later, due to the endless troubles on the border, Dai was used and transferred to the garrison of Datong Xinping Fort.

After Ma Gui was transferred to Xinpingbao, he thought that he was a person who wore sins, although he was a guard, but he carried a black cauldron that had been redeemed for sins, and he was always depressed in his heart, not a taste. Be more cautious and conscientious, and dare not slack off.

In the third year of Longqing, Altan Khan still remembered the fact that the father and son of the Ma family smashed the big board and ascended to the city with Liu Han, causing a fiasco of killing and killing the field.

In September, just as the autumn was high and the horses were fat, Altan Khan led 100,000 iron cavalry from the upper valley into the fortress and attacked the right guard. The seemingly impregnable right guard was vulnerable, and the Ming army was soon confined to a few fortress strongholds.

After capturing the right guard, I heard that the Ma family father and son were in tune with Datong and Xuanfu. In order to take revenge, he went straight to Yingzhou, Huairen, Shanyin, Hunyuan and other places, and was captured one by one everywhere he went. Duzhuang garrison Han Shangzhong was killed in battle, and Wang Liangcai, the governor of Shizhou, was killed.

Who knew that when the army turned back, it was about to leave the customs from Xinpingbao, but met the guard Ma Gui.

At that time, the Altan army plundered all the way, and the horses were already carrying heavy goods, salt and grain. My subordinates are attached to property and have no intention of fighting, while Magui bravely pursues and kills and gains a lot.

After the invasion, the imperial court strictly investigated the fortifications in various places, and punished the officials who were not effective in resisting and defending strictly, but the Maguiti brigade had a meritorious service, and it stands to reason that this merit should be stable.

However, an accident happened - this is the third year of Longqing, Gao Gong was forced to retreat by the power of Xu Jie's introduction road, and the Jin Party lost its strongest ally, so of course Ma Gui, the younger brother of the Jin Party, could not take credit. Not only did it not take the credit, but it almost happened.

The source of this incident was laid as early as the 37th year of Jiajing's expedition to the west of the Wei Rat, when Alta had garrisoned the Zalemahan Mountain, persuaded Gaole and the Ming'an to surrender to the Tatars, and formed a brotherly relationship with the local Hui tribe.

It stands to reason that what I did had nothing to do with the Ma family, but some people used this incident as an excuse to catch the wind and say: Ma Gui is a Hui person, and now the Hui people have formed an alliance with Ma Gui, so they colluded with Ma Gui to let Ma Gui protect the border for the Ming court, which is actually an illicit affair, so the Tatar army deliberately did not fight the Ma family, so the Ma family army can win repeatedly.

Fortunately, Longqing is a benevolent gentleman, and he is not stupid, he judged that Magui was most likely framed, but because the official was not even afraid of him as an emperor, he did not have Mr. Gao to shelter him from the wind and rain at that time, so he did not dare to rehabilitate Magui, so he had to avoid the important and lightly reappointed Magui to Desheng Fort, which is also the reason why Gao Pragmatic saw Magui for the first time, and he was the garrison of Desheng Fort.

In this way, Ma Gui, the unlucky bastard, was not afraid when I answered 100,000 iron horses like a grassland storm and swept all over the world, but he was pitted by the dark arrows shot from the gutter. Twelve years ago, he was silent in the face of high pragmatism, in fact, the root of his depression.

Fortunately, following Gao Pragmatic's sneak attack on the Chinese army, Ma Gui's future brightened up again - of course, the more important thing is that the Gao Party has stabilized in this life, and the Jin Party has also stabilized, and Ma Gui has been successfully promoted all the way to the deputy chief soldier of Xuanfu.

If it weren't for the fact that his brother Ma Jin was already the chief soldier of Datong, it stands to reason that with Ma Gui's qualifications and family background, he should have been able to serve as the chief soldier by now.

Ma Gui is a general who is optimistic about Gao Pragmatic, and the Gao Party has also taken some care of him over the years, so Gao Pragmatic came to Datong this time and also had the intention of sending Ma Gui a ride.

Gao pragmatic turned his head to look at Zheng Luo, and said with a smile: "Fan Xigong, Ma Gui, the deputy chief soldier of Xuanfu, in the past, he attacked the Chinese army under my command, and he also fought with the first fierce general under my command, Cha Taiji. ”

Zheng Luo knew about that time, he was an official in Shanxi at the time, so he naturally knew about it, and said with a smile: "There is a decree in the saint, ordering me to arrange the army to escort him, since Qin Cha has an old relationship with Ma Gui, and ordered his general, it is his blessing, how can this official not obey?" Come to the people, give the official a card to the Xuanfu, let Ma Gui pick the elite, come to Datong immediately, and at the same time explain to the Xuanfu side, after Ma Gui leaves, he must guard the border pass, and there must be no loss. ”

Ma Jin saw that Gao pragmatically ordered his younger brother's general, and he was not annoyed in his heart, after all, he was already the chief soldier, and he could not be promoted in terms of dispatch, as for everything to supervise affairs, to supervise the same knowledge, to supervise the left and right, etc., everyone knew that it was a false title, and there was no need to take it too seriously.

In this case, this credit is obviously the best for the younger brother to go, maybe the high servant is really the lucky star of the younger brother's fate, the last time he came, let the younger brother out of bad luck, and this time he came to give the Ma family the opportunity to "one door and two general soldiers".

That's even more magnificent than the Li family in Tieling!

Therefore, Ma Jin was not only not annoyed, but even excited, and his attitude became more and more humble.

Next, the people returned to the governor's yamen, where the governor's yamen was not located.

Zheng Luo smiled and said to Gao Shipra: "Qin Cha is taking a large army with him, and this official has ordered Ma Zongrong to arrange a place for Qin Cha to travel and garrison, but that place has been vacant for a few years, and it has only been temporarily cleaned up recently. ”

Gao pragmatic naturally smiled and thanked politely, nodded to Ma Jin again, and said, "Ma Zongrong also bothered." ”

Ma Jin hurriedly said: "What is within the division, how dare you bother, if there is anything inappropriate, please also ask Qin to send ten million to inform the general, and the general will fully cooperate." ”

Gao Shi responded with a smile, and then his face turned straight and coughed lightly.

Everyone knows that the drama is coming, and this look is about to get down to business.

From Zheng Luo to Jia Yingyuan, to Liu Ping and Ma Jin, they all had a straight face, sat solemnly, and spoke pragmatically.

Gao pragmatic said: "This canonization is not a simple canonization - the emperor has a secret decree, and the object of this canonization of King Shunyi is not Xin Ai, but Han Naji!" ”

Everyone was taken aback, Jia Yingyuan was even so shocked that he stood up suddenly, and then he felt out of shape and hurriedly sat down again.

And Zheng Luo was also busy: "What about Xin Ai?" In this way, if Xin Ai raises troops and rebels, the Tumut tribes are only afraid that they will be torn apart! Also, what is the attitude of Zhong Jin Hatun? ”

Ma Jin subconsciously grabbed the armrest of the seat, and the green tendons were exposed. However, Liu Ping, the eunuch guarding Datong Town, was the most calm, although his eyes were slowly full of surprise, but he sat peacefully.

Gao pragmatic waved his hand and said: "Don't be surprised, don't be surprised, the details are here, and listen to Ben Qin's dispatch one by one." ”
