Yang Chendong had no intention of embarrassing them, and after Ding Shan received the order, he set off into Narcissus Town, twenty miles away, and reported his home, saying that he wanted to see the general of the Jurchen Ministry.

did not report the names of Yang Chendong and the mercenaries, because the news here was blocked, and they didn't know what to say at all. This time, Ding Shan reported the name of the Red Banner Army. It is said that in the Nuer Gandusi area, the Red Banner Army also has some influence.

The Jurchen cavalry below reported Ding Shan's identity to the general. At this time, the two generals under his command in a large house were discussing how to deal with the Mongol general Bagan.

At this time, Bagen began to recruit troops again, and he even attracted the attention of most young adults in the town in the name of being a soldier for a month, five taels of silver, and twenty catties of meat. I've heard that quite a few people have already started to sign up. And once Bagan's power expands, it will naturally form a threat to Poeter, which he does not want to see.

Besides, Bagan's move has broken the rules, according to the previous agreement between the two sides, no matter who it is, conscription is allowed, but the standard of treatment should be the same, it is two taels of silver a month and five catties of meat. Under the same standard, the people of the town can join whichever side they want.

That is to say, the Jurchens had 4,000 soldiers, and the Mongols only had 2,500 soldiers. Choosing the strong rather than the weak is a kind of psychology for most people, in this way, the so-called fairness does not exist in the first place, which also makes Bade stronger and stronger, and Bagan weaker and weaker.

Forced to do so, the other side had to break the rules, preferring to pay more in order to attract more people to join their cavalry team.

A sturdy man was sitting on the lower left side of the general, and after hearing the general's words, he slammed the table and said in an extremely irritable tone: "Bagen is not following the rules, and even if this is the case, the last general suggested sending troops to fight him, and let him know who will have the final say in Narcissus Town." ”

"General Hulu, please calm your anger." Seeing that his subordinates were so impatient, Pote was not only not angry, but secretly happy in his heart. He likes people like Hu Lu, who have a straight temper and don't hide any eyes, such a person, when he uses it, he will be more at ease.

General Hulu had already expressed his opinion, and his gaze fell on the man on his right, this person's name was Hui Libu, and his mind was obviously much deeper.

Hui Li Bu did not immediately express his opinion and decision, but after pondering for a while, he said: "Of course, a Bagen will not be put in our eyes, we have four thousand cavalry, as long as we attack, they will not be able to stop for long, and they must be defeated in the end." But let's not forget that behind them is the mighty Mongols, and although their territory is far from here, if the news spreads, who can guarantee that they will not attack our idea, and if there is a Mongol cavalry of 5,000 men, what will we do with it? If you fight, can you win? ”

"This..."Hu Lu originally wanted to say something in an atmospheric manner, but after hearing this, he had to keep his mouth shut after squeaking for a long time.

Bad also sighed in his heart at this moment. Mongolia was so powerful that when he wanted to do something to Bagan, he had to think about it, because he would never be able to afford the terrible consequences when they came.

What he wants in his heart is to use the land of Narcissus Town to develop and strengthen himself, not to attract other people's blows to him. In order to achieve this goal, he did not even recruit troops in the town strongly, because he knew that there must be spies from the Northern Ming army here. Now he only has 4,000 cavalry and will not let the Beiming army see it as a threat, but if he absorbs all the men in the town as his subordinates, the force can grow several times in an instant, which will naturally attract the attention of the Beiming army.

"Well, if that is the case, are we going to see Bagan grow stronger and stronger until he threatens us?" With a sigh, he said in a disagreeable tone.

"This... Maybe we can send someone to discuss with Bagan, after all, we can't get the same conditions, and if we do the same, we will do the same, and the men in the town will choose to join us. The general said tentatively.

Although they didn't have much money saved due to the environment, it wasn't that they didn't have any inventory, they were really anxious, and they also had the same conditions, so it was a big deal to lose both.

"It seems that it can only be such a person." Pote nodded, it was the same result he had thought before. It's just that in this way, the money in his hand will shrink a lot, and in the long run, there will not be enough income, and I am afraid that one day, he will not even be able to spend military expenses.

Just as he nodded and made a decision, a soldier from outside the house walked in, knelt on the ground and said, "General, there is a person who claims to be a five-star soldier who wants to see you. ”

"Five-Star Army." He was no stranger to the name, and knew that this was also a team with thousands of cavalry, and it also had some combat effectiveness. But that's all, after all, his strength is more than three times that of the other party. "Well, can anyone say something?"

"No, the person who came claimed to be Ding Shan, saying that he had business to discuss with the general, but as for what business, he really didn't dare to talk to me." The soldier knelt down and answered truthfully.

"Got a business? Hehe, then invite him in. Pote smiled, this is the usual thing. Because they will get leather goods such as green rat skins here, as well as things that are urgently needed outside, such as Haidongqing and pearls, it is not surprising that ordinary businessmen come to contact him.

It's just that usually this kind of businessman appears in early spring and late autumn, and it is indeed rare to see a businessman who has already entered summer and still talks business with him.

With curious eyes, neither Hu Lu nor General Hui Libu moved their bodies, and they were also curious about what business this Red Banner Ding Shan wanted to talk to them about.

The soldiers left, and soon went and returned, followed by Ding Shan with a smile on his face. As soon as this person entered the house, he hugged his fists very humbly and saluted the three of them one by one, "Ding Shan has seen three generals, and the three generals are good." ”

"Well, are you Ding Shan of the Five-Star Army? What is your position there? Hui didn't take the initiative to ask, he also played the role of a pioneer, so he couldn't let the general take action in person if he had some.

"The villain's talent is limited, just any company commander." Ding Shan was still smiling and indescribably sincere.

"Company commander?" Hui Li frowned, obviously he had never heard of this position, "Company commander? I don't know how many people Brother Ding is in charge of? ”

"Oh, it's only a hundred." Ding Shan still said with a smile, and did not have the slightest self-depreciation because he could only lead a hundred soldiers.

"Hundred? Hehe, hehehe. When the three of them heard that the other party was just a centurion, they couldn't help laughing. What kind of company commander was that kind of majestic official position? Unexpectedly, it was a centurion. By the way, it must be that Ding Shan also knew that he was embarrassed to say his official position, so he deliberately said that he was the company commander, but in the end, the three of them saw through his identity. Hey, I don't know what the five-star army thinks, when they came to see themselves, they just sent a centurion, is this what they mean by looking down on themselves?

The three of them seemed to have thought of something, and a trace of anger appeared on their faces, and when Ding Shan saw it in his eyes, he naturally knew that the other party's heart had changed, and he also sighed in his heart, you don't know the strength of the five-star army, and being able to send me here can be regarded as giving you enough face.

Of course, he couldn't say these words, and no one would believe him when he said them, thinking about his mission, he put away his original smile, and said as seriously as possible: "Three generals, this time I actually came to deal with you, I think in front of interests, it shouldn't matter what my identity is." ”

"Hmm." Hui Li didn't hold back his anger, "You said the transaction, then let's talk about the content and amount of the transaction." ”

didn't refuse immediately, they wanted to wait for Ding Shan to finish speaking, and then humiliate the other party, after all, they were just a centurion, and they really didn't think that the other party could come up with anything to tempt them.

Ignoring the other party's somewhat indifferent attitude, Ding Shan finally spoke, "Three generals, our five-star army appeared here to buy war horses, we know that the nobles have a lot of war horses in captivity, even if they eat food there for nothing, it is better to sell it to us, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds." ”

"Buying a horse? Do you want to buy a war horse? Still still didn't say this out loud, and then he laughed, "Ding... Company commander, right, but I don't know how many horses you want? And what price can it offer? ”

deliberately accentuated the words on a few horses, which meant to satirize Ding Shan, as a mere centurion, what kind of master can you do, even if you buy horses, it should only be a few horses, although the sale of war horses is indeed the main source of their Jurchen people's wealth, but if it is only a few horses, they will not put it in their eyes.

How many horses?

Ding Shan sneered at the other party in his heart, and his tone changed to a very proud attitude, he had already thought about it, who said that a businessman must bow his head, that is a small businessman. He is a big businessman, even if he is a big businessman, he has a large sum of silver taels, it is not that he wants to see other people's faces, but others want to see his mood. Ding Shan, whose tone also changed, was like a different person at this moment, compared to just now, "Three generals, you must have made a mistake, our five-star army does not want a few horses, but as many as you want, as for the price, it is easy to discuss." ”
