In Jinyiwei's torture cell, more than a dozen prisoners were tied to benches. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Today's people are more neat, and Ji Gang's henchmen are all here.

Looking at these criminals with blurred flesh and blood, none of the people present changed color, and they had long been accustomed to it.

Ji Gang sat on the edge of a pot of charcoal fire, and said with a smile: "This group of people has explained, we can be regarded as a meritorious person, come here, bring in the wine and food." ”

Wine and food were sent in like a stream, and one of the dishes was hot pot, but the firepower of the small charcoal stove was not enough.

Ji Gang smiled: "The weather is getting colder, it's hot enough, get some oil to boil it." ”

Zhuang Jing hurriedly said, "Then get some fierce fire oil." ”

Fierce fire oil is a strategic material, but there is no shortage of Jinyiwei.

A large wooden barrel was brought in by a thin brocade guard, he lowered his head, took a spoon and scooped a small amount of fierce fire oil, and poured it into the carbon furnace, and suddenly black smoke rose and the flames blazed.

Pang Ying said with a smile: "This fierce fire oil is not bad, but the smoke is bigger, the smell is bigger, and it is difficult to extinguish when it is burned." ”

Ji Gang pressed his hand and said: "Everyone has worked hard during this time, come, sit down, let's brothers have a drink." ”

After everyone sat down, Wang Qian was surprised and said, "My lord, this is the first fresh dish?" ”

Ji Gang nodded, "Let's have a meal, that party can't get rich when he wakes up, come, drink!" ”

……

The autumn sunset is beautiful, it feels golden and golden, shining on the cornices, as if a piece of rice is about to be harvested on it.

But Fang Xing's mood was not beautiful.

In Taisun's mansion, a child who was only tall enough to be under Fang Xing's ribs, dressed in shabby, and obviously fat in a big jacket was kneeling on the ground blankly.

Fang Xing went in and saw this scene and asked, "Who is this?" ”

Zhu Zhanji was not there, Du Qian said: "This is a sergeant of Yingzhou Wei. ”

"Sergeant of Yingzhou Guard?"

Fang Xing picked up the child, who looked at most seven or eight years old, and asked, "Who asked you to be a soldier?" ”

The child said blankly: "Adult, small family...... No one is there. ”

Fang Xing looked up and saw Zhu Zhanji coming in.

Zhu Zhanji waved his hand, and only after sitting down did he sigh: "This child's father and uncle died in the grassland, and the other died in Jiaozhi, according to military law, those people went to his house to check the box, but there was only a seventy-year-old grandfather and him left in the family, and finally he was hooked away." ”

Fang Xing's heart was shocked, and he touched the top of the child's head and asked, "What's your name?" ”

This may be the youngest sergeant of the Ming Dynasty, and said: "Adult, the small one is called Yue Baoguo." ”

This person's father must not be illiterate, and the anger in Fang Xing's heart is rushing everywhere.

"Is Grandpa still there?"

Yue Baoguo said: "It's still there." ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "During this inspection of the guards, his grandfather Yue Xingbin learned of this and wrote a letter to the Ministry of War. ”

Fang Xing said sadly in his heart: "What did the military department say? ”

Zhu Zhanji shook his head and said: "Lord Jin is very sympathetic, he has already been to the emperor's grandfather, and he wants to expel his family." ”

Daming's military household system, once you are checked, as long as you die or are unable to perform military service, the military people will immediately contact the local government and continue to check the male supplement in your family.

And this rule is so strict that it is almost impossible to avoid it, except for bribery and fleeing.

Fang Xing smiled bitterly: "The sergeant of the Ming Dynasty cannot be expelled unless he is a scholar of the military department, and it depends on whether His Majesty is accommodating outside the law." ”

"I'm going to play it!"

……

Zhu Di received Jin Zhong's recital, and after reading it, he sank like water.

"Your Majesty, there is a reciprocal twist and turn in with the uncle."

The great eunuch carefully folded the recital.

Zhu Di took it casually.

“…… His family and his family all sacrificed their lives for the country, isn't this loyal? However, after Zhongliang, it is scattered here, isn't it chilling? Your Majesty, will anyone still be willing to serve the country in the future? ”

"Bastard!"

Zhu Di threw the fold out, got up and circled on it.

Reminiscent of Fang Xing's last recital, its purpose is clear: to change the tick system!

Zhu Di was a little annoyed, no, it should be said that he was angry!

If this matter spreads, those people will regard the Gou army as a daunting way, where will they find a source of troops when the time comes?

"Ling Zhanji took care of this."

Zhu Di knows that reform is not easy, and when there is still a great enemy in the northern grasslands, the reform of the military system must be cautious, otherwise once there is a recurrence, the Ming Dynasty will be in danger.

"Ignorance!"

……

"Your Majesty said, the vertical son is ignorant!"

Huang Yan left proudly, and Du Qian sent him out courteously, leaving Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji said embarrassedly: "Brother Dehua, this Yue Baoguo is placed in the academy, right?" ”

Since he is loyal and good, he deserves preferential treatment.

Fang Xing nodded in agreement, and then said helplessly: "Military reform must be cautious, I understand this truth, but caution is one thing, no movement is another, everyone drags on, and waits for decades, then it will be the real accumulation!" ”

When Zhu Zhanji saw that Du Qian was back, he interrupted Fang Xing's words with a dry cough and said, "I'll send someone to pick up his grandfather, Brother Dehua, you can take this child back." ”

So Fang Xing had an extra small tail on the return trip.

When he arrived at the academy, Fang Xing called Ma Su and introduced: "His name is Yue Baoguo, and he will be a disciple of the academy from now on, you can arrange for someone to take care of him, and wait for his grandfather to arrive." ”

Yue Baoguo turned around and looked at Fang Xing, his eyes were full of horror.

"Adult ......"

The immature voice made Fang Xing a little sad, and he said, "Don't call any adults here, call them mountain chiefs." ”

"Mountain Chief."

Yue Baoguo tugged at the sleeve that had completely covered his hand, and said timidly: "Big ...... The mountain is long, and the small ones can work, brush the horses, fight the grass, feed them, and wash clothes. ”

"This is the academy, you will be a student in the future, don't say anything small, just call yourself a student in the future."

Ma Su didn't know what the origin of this child wearing a big ridiculous military uniform was, but since it was arranged by Fang Xing, he would definitely take care of it.

Yue Baoguo looked at Fang Xing, with a hint of dependence in his eyes.

This is a sensible and sensitive child, from the conversation in the Taisun Mansion, he keenly perceives that the most reliable is Fang Xing.

Fang Xing comforted: "You can live in peace, someone will take care of your life every day, and someone will help you with your studies, and you will go to the professors if you have something." ”

Yue Baoguo nodded, and after Fang Xing turned around, he knelt on the ground with a puff, looking straight at Fang Xing's back, choked up...... Tears!

Fang Xing heard the voice, but he didn't look back, and strode away with a hard heart.

A kid of a few years was drafted into the army, and God knows what he went through!

The sergeants of the local guard have long been the free labor of the magistrates and the local gentry, and with such a young child, Fang Xing can imagine the pain he has experienced.

Dazed, parting, and then torment.
