"Of course, this number will not be the same, Chen Mouwei is from a security officer, this kind of thing will not be mistaken."

Yan Qingwei commanded the envoy to follow the soldiers to Wu Dui's front and back feet to the small school field, well, this front and rear feet were deliberately done by Chen Mu.

He didn't see the commander at all, so he left the guard officer of the same level for a day and a night, and when he heard the news that the commander had come in person, he directly sent a fast horse to invite Wu Dui to come.

The full name of the military preparation road is the rectification of the military preparation road, in fact, it is the supervision of the army, the local soldiers and horses, money and grain and tuntian are all under their control, although the grade is slightly lower, but the local officers are in charge, if Chen Mu wants to do anything to the commander, he needs to inform Wu Dui.

Wu Dui came very early, sniffed lightly with the tea bowl, and then said: "The new official is not the old official account, does the general want to blame the past and only talk about the future, or catch it clean from beginning to end?" ”

"Catch it clean?"

Chen Mu shook his head, "I can't catch it clean, it's best if I don't blame the past, it's a pity." ”

There was a letter on his tea case, which was sent by the commander of the Yanqing Left Guard, which wrote in detail the information of the Yanqing guards, fields, military uniforms, money and grain, etc., and was the only one who did things well, even if the shortage of six hundred and seventy households in the five departments and thousands of households was written in detail.

In the current situation, the shortfall of six hundred and seventy is no longer a big deal.

"If there is a shortage, Chen plans to let him make up for it as soon as possible, there is no way, Chen will help him find a way, there is no one in the world who can't be killed, and there is nothing that can't be done." Chen Mu said and raised his hand to the silk plate covered with red cloth on the other side of the table, and opened the neatly stacked twenty silver ingots inside, "The one outside the door admits his mistake and doesn't talk about him, what should this person do?" ”

"What Chen wants is the situation of the health center, not four hundred taels of silver."

Yanqing Sanwei, Yanqingwei commanded Wang Zhongguo to not come, the letter was not delivered, and four hundred taels of silver were sent; The commander of the Yanqing Left Guard made Hu Xingyun handle things as he entrusted, and the difference between the banner army was six hundred and seventy; The commander of Yanqing's right guard made Jiang Yuelin live in the small school field, and Chen Mu hadn't seen him yet.

Chen Mu can be regarded as seeing a person who gives gifts more than himself, this Wang Zhongguo has no problem sending silver, Chen Mu doesn't talk about him, but the silver is sent but he doesn't report Yanqingwei's affairs, this is a foolish home, right?

"And what is the general going to do?"

Wu Dui had no expression on his face, just sat quietly and watched Chen Mu's next thought. In fact, he didn't have any ideas, he had already expected this scene, but it only deepened his impression that the guards were unusable.

The guards made him embarrassed, a few days ago he said in front of Chen Mu that the three guards in Yanqing were sufficient, but at this time, a letter led to a shortage of more than 600 guards, and there was a person who came to ask for a meeting and a person who sent silver, so you can imagine what the situation is!

"And ask Wu Bingbei to avoid it, and wait for Chen to see Jiang Yuelin before making plans."

Wu Dui didn't say anything else, arched his hand and walked to the side hall, and Chen Mu summoned Jiang Yuelin in.

This general's name is elegant, his eyebrows are raised, and what attracts Chen Mu's attention the most is his shoulders and hands, this is a commander who is used to using a strong bow, and he has kung fu in his hands.

"In Xiajiang Yuelin, meet General Chen."

Although they are at the same level, they are controlled by others, and there is still respect on their faces, Jiang Yuelin then submitted a letter: "This is the letter that the chief soldier asked the guard to hand in, and the chief soldier has not come to pay his respects after he arrived, so he took this opportunity to bring it together." ”

"Commander Jiang, please take a seat."

Jiang Yuelin's words were frank, sitting next to him waiting for a lecture, looking like a master who was not good at words, Chen Mu flipped through the letters, and looked similar to the situation of Yanqing Zuowei, and asked: "Commander Jiang's subordinates, there is also a difference of six or seven hundred?" ”

"Yes, back to General Chen, since the first year of Longqing, the name of the guard has been changed, the imperial court has recruited the full flag for half a year, Yanqing Wei relies on Juyong Pass, guards the Beijing Division, Xuanfu, the wind of desertion has been repeatedly banned, and no one is willing to join the army, so the shortage is difficult to fill."

The accounts of the two guards are similar, and there is a shortage of money, food, ordnance and military households, but the amount is not large, and because of the proximity to the Beijing division, the situation is slightly better than that of the southern guard.

This is indeed a difference, but the difference is not huge, if it is only so, Wang Zhongguo will not give himself four hundred taels of silver. Whether it is Hu Xingyun of Yanqing Zuowei who sent the letter frankly or came by himself like Jiang Yuelin, he can let Chen Mu reveal it - what is the situation in Yanqingwei?

This made Chen Mu's heart feel a lot more relaxed, and asked, "Does Commander Jiang know the situation of Yanqingwei?" ”

"This ......" Jiang Yuelin made a look of listening when he saw Chen Mu speak, how did he know that Chen Mu was asking Wang Zhongguo's Yanqingwei, and immediately changed color and shook his head: "I don't know the situation of Yanqingwei, please don't blame the general soldier." ”

I don't know if I have a ghost!

"Ugh."

Jiang Yuelin saw that Chen Mu suddenly sighed, and showed disappointment on his face from nowhere, thinking that he was worried because of the dissatisfaction of the soldiers, and arched his hand: "The general soldier doesn't have to worry too much, as long as the soldiers can be dredged, the difference between the banner army and the army can be filled in three or four months, and it is nothing more than a hook army." ”

Where is Chen Mu sighing for this, this Jiang Yuelin came with a completely different purpose than he imagined, he also thought it was another commander who sent gifts to the door, now it's okay, the knife and axe in the ambush in the side hall are not the knife and axe hands, but the Wu soldiers in the ambush in the side hall can't be spared.

"It's okay, Commander Jiang doesn't have to think much about these things, and relax, I won't blame you for these things." Chen Mu smiled kindly and said: "It just so happens that Commander Jiang is here, why don't you stay in Xiaoxi Camp for a few days, Chen sent a message to ask the other two commanders to come over, let's talk about the future of the guard station, can Commander Jiang listen to me?" ”

Jiang Yuelin hugged his fists without saying a word: "Please show the chief soldier, Jiang is omnipotent!" ”

Go on the road!

"Great, then the Jiang commander should not be in a hurry, stay in Xiaoxi Camp, Chen will set up a banquet in the evening, and then I will ask you to tell Chen some stories about the Jingshi."

In the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty during this period, it was not easy for military attachés to survive, there was no war, and most of the guard officers could only stay in their original positions for the rest of their lives, without the slightest room for improvement, and they would be impeached and punished if they were not careful; There is a war, and if you accidentally die on the battlefield, you still can't get anything in the end.

Only those military attachés with strong business, communication, luck, and ability, such as Qi Jiguang, such as Yu Dayou, such as Chen Mu, and Li Chengliang, can they defend one place and rise step by step.

Why is there Yu Dayou here? Old man Yu does not have a wide range of friends like others, but he can make people die, Yu Dayou's good friend, the powerful and monstrous, once served as the third duke and the third orphan, hammered the soldiers and horses to command, and Emperor Jiajing issued an edict not to let Lu Bing, the head of the Jinyi guard, pass away for ten years, otherwise no one in the court can move Yu Dayou.

In fact, of the above four people, only Chen Mu has no friends in the court.

Jiang Yuelin left, Wu Dui walked out from behind the curtain and asked Chen Mu, "What does the general plan to do with Wang Zhongguo?" ”

Chen Mu smiled and didn't speak, summoned Deng Zilong in, and said: "General Deng, Yanqingwei commanded Wang Zhongguo to send four hundred taels of silver to Chen, please return it on my behalf - lead the troops to retreat, and thoroughly investigate Yanqingwei!" ”
