Kaifeng City.

Located next to the Zhou Palace, the Qingyuan is slightly more lively.

This courtyard that was once bought by King Zhou is no longer empty, and people come and go inside, adding a little more populous atmosphere to the Qingyuan with the "Governor's Mansion" hanging on the door.

Seeing this, Hou Sui, who moved in, was a little relaxed in his heart. It's just that when Hou Sui saw the guards of the Supervising Battalion patrolling outside the door, his face still sank slightly.

The people in the Camp have changed a lot. After the First Battle of Liuyuankou, many of Zhu Cihong's Shandong towns were promoted and made rich, and there were always a lot of rewards. However, Shandong Town has always required strict military discipline, and rewards and punishments for meritorious service are the basic requirements. If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have done it, you will be punished.

Shandong Town won the battle, and there were some chaos, and there were very few mistakes. But this does not mean that there were no mistakes in this battle, for example, there were many people who escaped from the battle in the first battle of the Inspector Battalion.

It is said that escaping from the battle is really nothing among the Ming generals, because Zuo Liangyu has done too much, so that no one cares about ordinary trivial things.

However, Zheng Xiong, the staff general of the Inspector Battalion, was arrested and imprisoned by Zhu Cihong's dispatch, and then prepared the human and physical evidence and confessions one by one and put them on Hou Sui's table.

Meritorious rewards and punishments, Shandong Town rewarded meritorious service, Hou Sui could not shelter this defeated general who escaped in front of everyone's eyes.

Thereupon......

A few days ago, this unlucky child who taught Zheng Xiong was pushed out of Qingyuan and beheaded by the public.

As soon as this cronie brought in by Hou Sui from his hometown died, Hou Sui would not see a familiar one in the supervision camp. Because, most of the familiar ones ran away with Zheng Xiong, and even if they didn't die, they were all hard laborers. I don't know where to sell my dead power.

In this way, as the governor of the military affairs of the three provinces. I could only watch a group of strange soldiers patrol and guard Qingyuan in the Supervising Battalion.

Thinking of this, Hou Sui not only felt sad and inexplicable in his heart.

Slowly walked into the study. Hou Sui looked at the empty table and frowned. There are no documents on the table, which means that the affairs of the city do not need Hou Sui's opinion.

Just when Hou Sui's heart was full of sorrow, outside the door, Hou Fangyu's voice rang out.

"I naturally know about the Supervising Battalion, but isn't the first team of the Supervising Battalion an official army? Hou Fang, listen to my orders, and you will be on duty in the study of the superintendent today. Hum. What military order? A hundred households in the superintendent camp dare to order me? If you accept his orders, let him come to me himself!" Hou Sui said, striding into Hou Sui's study.

Listening to the voice outside, Hou Sui was slightly surprised: "Chaozong, what happened outside the door?" ”

When Hou Fangyu heard this, he looked at Hou Sui and smiled a little, and said, "Father, the child is here today, and it is a happy coming." ”

Listen to this. Hou Sui was first happy, and then his face sank, and said: "What kind of happy event makes you so reckless." I'm waiting in Kaifeng City. Like a prisoner. Be cautious! ”

Hou Fangyu bowed slightly, straightened his face and said, "The child must follow the lesson." ”

"Alright. Anyway, what kind of joy is it? You brought the soldiers to my study. Changed defense? Hou Sui said, his face gradually with a gentle smile.

Hou Fangyu nodded fiercely. He said, "Father, the child brought his own soldiers in. Hmph, that Qin Xia thought that he could be the general of the supervision battalion by sending a nobody in, but he didn't know that the child also received the supervision of the standard battalion! Just now, the child brought a group of people in, and then followed his father's instructions. ”

Saying that, Hou Fangyu looked for recruitment, and a big man with a full body of armor and a general's belly walked over and saluted Hou Sui: "The last general, Yang Weicheng, meet the Governor." ”

"Is this ......? Ding Qirui's people? Hou Sui's eyes suddenly lit up.

Hou Sui smiled and said, "Father is wise. Ding Qirui took the remnants of the army into Kaifeng, because he was a soldier, there were three or four thousand people on hand, and King Zhou and Gao Mingheng had to borrow the city defense, so Ding Qirui was still moisturized in the city. It's just that now that his father is here, Ding Qirui's only name is gone, and the title of supervisor has long been removed, and he has already worn a sin. Now, Ding Qirui is going to use these three or four thousand soldiers to exchange for a whole body to retreat. ”

Listening to Hou Fangyu's eloquent conversation, Hou Sui closed his eyes slightly and groaned.

On the side, Yang Weicheng, who was kneeling on the ground, looked a little impatient, but when he thought that the military discipline in his army had always been corrupt, and Zhu Cihong, who had the real power of the thief, was particularly concerned about military discipline, and when he heard that he was going to find him to do something, he suddenly held down his impatience and waited quietly.

"Ahem......" Finally, Hou Sui opened his eyes again, his eyes flashed slightly, and said, "It's a delusion to retreat with your whole body." Let it go south. ”

Zhu Xianzhen will definitely settle accounts for such a big defeat in the imperial court. It will definitely not be settled on Zuo Liangyu, and it is certain that when the time comes, it will be certain to find the troublesome practices of Yang Dezheng, Fang Guoan and others. Of course, for Ding Qirui, the commander-in-chief civil official who presided over the battle of Zhuxian Town, the emperor will definitely not let it go. According to the temperament of the emperor who rushed into battle, if he let the scouts of Jinyiwei catch him, Ding Qirui would inevitably have a vegetable market when he entered Beijing.

Therefore, if you help Ding Qirui to retreat, he will naturally have to fight for Hou Xun's relationship, and he will have to share his military merits with Ding Qirui.

At such a big price, the marquis was obviously reluctant to exchange three or four thousand soldiers.

But on the other hand, this may not be Ding Qirui's bottom line.

Hou Sui pondered for a long time and decided to let people escape by default. As long as the person runs away, when Ding Qirui runs to his hometown in Jiangnan, is it possible that Jinyiwei's scouts will go over to arrest people again?

With Ding Qirui's own relationship, if he returns to his hometown and can't rely on the power of his hometown to hide, it will be in vain to blind Hou Sui's good intentions.

Hearing Hou Sui agree, Hou Fangyu suddenly glanced at the general with a smile.

Seeing this, Hou Sui bowed slightly: "Well, Yang Weicheng, your brave name is known." Then the official will promote you to a deputy general of the supervision battalion, and you can take office! ”

"Yes! Subordinates thank the Inspector. Yang Weicheng was overjoyed and bowed to the ground.

……

In the Zhou Wangfu, not far from Qingyuan, the group lived in a chic courtyard of the Zhou Wangfu.

Here, Zhu Cihong changed into clothes.

This was secretly made by the private tailor of the Zhou Palace, a red robe, a disc collar and narrow sleeves, and a gold-woven dragon on both shoulders.

On the side, the palace people of the Zhou Palace's palace lightly cleaned up Zhu Cihong's clothes, freshly groomed him, and shaved Zhu Cihong's beard since his military service. After the incident, Zhu Cihong's whole person's breath was several years younger again.

In the star eyes of several palace maids, Zhu Cihong, who had recovered his beautiful youth, looked in the mirror, and his complexion was even better: "This dress is made close-fitting." Okay, thank you for the girls, let's all go down. Zhang Zhen! (To be continued......)
