Chapter 283: It's not easy to be at home
As Xu Changqing expected, the reward lasted for five days, and it was all processed.
The main reason is that the model army is still an emerging stage after all, and many structures are not perfect, so Xu Changqing can only do it himself to ensure that he can firmly control everything in the army!
After the reward, Li Yan and the others expressed their positions one after another, requesting to postpone the submission time of the structure of the opening of the mansion.
It's something that can't be helped.
In the past few days, they have been busy awarding rewards, and at the same time, they are busy thinking about the structure and writing the plan, and they are really tired of having a few big heads.
And no one wants to give up this kind of thing, so naturally it must be carefully planned before daring to come up with it.
Including some relationships, it is also necessary to take care of them.
Xu Changqing actually knew that he was in a hurry, although everyone had been prepared for this kind of thing, but it would take some time to really implement it.
Including Xu Changqing, it will take some time to carefully weigh the interests of all parties, so as to make a more correct choice.
In the end, the group deliberated, and for another three days, everyone was granted amnesty.
……
The study room in the official hall.
Xu Changqing leaned comfortably on his tiger skin throne, enjoying the fresh sunshine in the morning, the reward of the past few days, even Xu Changqing's physical strength was not light, and he was finally able to relax for a while at this time.
This is also one of the core reasons why Xu Changqing is a little anxious to plan to open the mansion.
Kong Ming once said: "Do your best, and then die." ”
To a large extent, this is a true portrayal of him, but history has shown that it was not a wise choice.
Xu Changqing, who has the support of strong experience in later generations, understands very well that professional things should be done by professional people.
It is necessary to ensure that the vast majority of people have something to do and have enough to eat, so that the long-term peace and stability of society can be maintained and a common centripetal force can be formed.
"Master, let's have a cup of tea."
At this time, Gu Hengbo walked in with a cup of tea.
Since the news of her pregnancy was exposed, she seems to have become the baby of the Xu family, although today is her turn in Xu Changqing's inner study, but Xu Changqing feels sorry for her, and originally wanted her to go back to rest and recuperate, but this girl still came.
Xu Changqing took the fragrant tea, tasted it with a smile, put it down and took Gu Hengbo into his arms, and sniffed the fragrance between her hair greedily, "What do you want to eat at noon?" I'll let the kitchen cook it for you. Do you want to try the wild boar with green onions? ”
Yesterday afternoon, Zhao Zengjin, Xu Xiu and a few of them went out hunting, and they were lucky, and they caught a big wild boar of more than 300 catties in the mountains and forests more than ten miles away in the northwest.
"Master, I've gained a lot of weight these days, and I still eat meat...... I can't stand eating meat anymore......"
Gu Hengbo leaned on Xu Changqing's arms like a kitten, listening to Xu Changqing's heartbeat.
Pregnancy is definitely the most critical, the most important and happiest thing in her life, especially Xu Changqing and Yang, including Li Youwei and Wu Sanmei's attitude towards her.
However, too much happiness is also a problem.
Originally, she could control her diet very well, but as the pregnancy was exposed, not only did Xu Changqing personally ask her about her food every once in a while, but Yang had to personally ask her every day.
Including Li Youwei and Wu Sanmei, they often come over to bring her delicious food.
The key is that she can't refuse these things, and she can't give them away or throw them away, so she can only eat them slowly.
This also caused her weight to start skyrocketing.
Xu Changqing couldn't help but smile: "It doesn't matter if you're fat." If you don't like to eat, just eat less. I feel better on the contrary. ”
Gu Hengbo's pretty face couldn't help but blush, and he twisted Xu Changqing slightly.
Xu Changqing has been busy between the two little wives in the past few days, and he has not been warm with Gu Hengbo, at this time, feeling the jade man in his arms, Xu Changqing soon began to cheer up, and whispered a few words in Gu Hengbo's crystal ear.
Gu Hengbo's ears instantly turned red, "This, is this okay?" It doesn't hurt the kids, does it? ”
"Hey, it's fine. I'll take notice. ”
After a while, the atmosphere in the room changed.
Although Li Youwei and Wu Sanmei are outstanding beauties, they are young after all, and compared with Gu Hengbo, the royal sister who is in her prime, they are obviously still a step behind.
Especially Gu Hengbo knows Xu Changqing very well, and the two have already had an incomparable tacit understanding.
However, just as Xu Changqing was about to really enter the rhythm, there was a report from the pro-soldiers outside: "Marshal, Kaifeng emergency military situation!" ”
"Huh?"
Gu Hengbo was taken aback, and looked at Xu Changqing a little hazy.
Xu Changqing also frowned a little, asked the soldiers to put the information on the cabinet outside the door, and said with a smile: "Nothing is as important as my sister Mei's affairs, let's talk about it after we are busy first." ”
"Hate ......"
……
Half an hour later, Xu Changqing went out slowly and methodically and got this urgent report.
It's not that Xu Changqing is big.
As early as when Xu Changqing left the Central Plains, he had basically dealt with the follow-up properly, unless Li Zicheng didn't want to besiege Kaifeng City, otherwise, the overall situation would be under Xu Changqing's control.
Gu Hengbo was afraid of delaying Xu Changqing's affairs, so he had already fled, Xu Changqing sniffed the familiar fragrance left by the Yiren, opened the information and looked carefully.
But after looking at it for a moment, Xu Changqing frowned.
Li Zicheng didn't make a mistake, however, it was a heartwarming knife!
There are several squads suspected of being exiled soldiers, all of which are elite cavalry, who have been active around Kaifeng since ten days ago, constantly attacking passing caravans!
Originally, Hou Sui and Gao Mingheng didn't take it seriously, but after a few days in a row, Kaifeng City had already suffered heavy losses and knew the seriousness of the matter.
But Chen Yongfu led several waves of troops to encircle and suppress, but there was no result, and the gang ran faster than rabbits.
This made Kaifeng City, which had recovered a little bit of vitality, suddenly fall into a terrible crisis again.
They suspected that it was a conspiracy of the exile army, and wanted to hit the main force of the Central Plains Army in Kaifeng City.
Hou Sui also said that he couldn't hold it in Jingli and needed Xu Changqing to give a plan as soon as possible.
“@#¥%! Your uncle, the worst thing happened. ”
Xu Changqing couldn't help but take a sip fiercely.
In fact, long before leaving Kaifeng, Xu Changqing had already expected that this situation might occur, and the learning ability of the Wandering People's Army was not a joke.
But Xu Changqing didn't pay much attention to this matter before.
The main reason is that Xu Changqing already wanted to completely give up Kaifeng City at that time, and if this situation occurs, it is just a means to put pressure on Kaifeng.
However, the situation has changed a lot by this time.
Kaifeng's interests, even if they want to give up Kaifeng, must make a choice after earning more benefits.
This time, many people who originally planned to leave did not leave in time, and Kaifeng City was trapped.
To be honest, in the current state of affairs, Xu Changqing is also a little helpless.
Mao Qun didn't have many horses, so it would definitely be no problem to fight positional warfare, but it was impossible to pursue the elite of these exile troops.
Li Zicheng and their main force are still turtles in Nanyang Mansion, and Xu Changqing actually knows Li Zicheng's mentality very well.
The reason why he used this method to hook Kaifeng's side was that he was going to prepare for a new big move.
It's a pity that Xu Changqing wants to guard against the Qing army entering the customs, and he doesn't have the strength to greet them anymore.
This complicates matters!
Kaifeng's current state can only save itself!
Thinking about it, Xu Changqing picked up the pen and began to write a reply.
The first to reply was Hou Sui's matter about the imperial court.
At this point, it's almost time to hold on, and it's time for the fire, and if you drag it out, it won't be fun.
Of course, if he can fight for it, Xu Changqing will definitely have to fight for the marquis.
As for these thief squads, the method Xu Changqing came up with was to set up an ambush and booby trap!
Do a game to seduce the Liumin Army squad to see what level they are, which is also to let Mao Qun train their troops.
In addition, it is a matter of intensifying the intensity of sentinel detection.
The sentinel of the Central Plains Army made Xu Changqing really powerless to vomit.
Even if he has experience in Liaodi, he has been mixed in the Central Plains for a few years, and he has already lost his sharpness.
It can only force them to pick up the craft again!
After sealing the credit firearms and letting the soldiers return to Kaifeng for 800 miles, Xu Changqing also began to plan military and political affairs.
In terms of the shogunate, Li Yan's military advisor is certain, after all, this is the promise Xu Changqing made to him at the beginning, and Li Yan's own strength is indeed qualified for the position of military advisor.
The positions in the other five subjects need to be carefully considered by Xu Changqing.
At the beginning, Xu Changqing's idea was to have the core of the shogunate take turns to write like the cabinet to prevent too much concentration of power.
But at the moment, this idea is not mature.
Whether it is Li Yan, Yang Zhongliang, or Li Hongyun, they all need the experience of really being in charge of government affairs.
They must be given a process of learning, running-in, and improving.
And the military affairs are more complicated than the government affairs.
The first thing to bear the brunt of this is the expansion of the army.
Although the issue of army expansion is already on track and can be carried out at any time, how much it can be expanded, including the resettlement of the more than 20,000 people, is a headache.
And buying food.
Although Xu Changqing has gained a lot in the battle of the Central Plains this time, he has spent nearly 100,000 taels of rewards alone in the past few days, and he must have to pay on credit.
This means that Xu Changqing has to go to Qingzhou to have an interview with Zhu Youdi.
And these affairs had to wait until the shogunate stabilized.
There are also the core military issues.
The entry of the Qing army into the customs is almost a matter of nine out of ten, and the Shandong Left Association does not look big, but it is really not small, how to defend it?
Haicheng's defense, Xu Changqing was not worried.
Although Haicheng has not really built a city wall, and the city is surrounded by mud walls, Haicheng is surrounded by the river on one side and the sea on the other, and has unique geographical advantages.
If the Dorgon brothers don't come, it's okay, come, Xu Changqing will definitely teach them how to behave!
The key is those small towns, small towns, small villages.
How can these be defended?
Jianbi Qingye is simple to say, but it will definitely make Xu Changqing's finances, which are currently on the verge of collapse, worse.
"Hey, if Lao Tzu was in Denglai, why is there so much trouble?"
Xu Changqing couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
However, no matter how difficult things are, they still have to be solved!
Judging from the current situation, the strong wall is clear, and according to the sea city, it is still the best choice!
Even if this will continue to increase Xu Changqing's financial burden, it is just the right time to take advantage of this opportunity to integrate the military spirit of the entire Shandong Left Association!
Only with comparison can these ordinary people understand who can truly protect them.
And the fleet has all returned, and Qingzhou can transport grain by sea.
kept writing and painting on the paper, displaying a series of things, and Xu Changqing was a little big for a while.
This home is not easy to be.
Fortunately, it is not yet October at this time, and the weather is not really cold, according to the temperament of the Qing army, entering the customs is either the month of the month or the New Year, and Xu Changqing still has a lot of time to prepare.
……
Just when Xu Changqing was planning the overall situation, Tang Yu's side finally found Xiaomi's family.
"Sister Tang, give you candy, it's delicious. Taste it. ”
As soon as Tang Yu came to the temporary gathering area of Xiaomijia, Xiaomi, like a little elf, ran over quickly, and threw himself into Tang Yu's arms at once, and then, hoping to hold the half-eaten lollipop in his hand to Tang Yu.
