The relationship between Wang Tong and Li Rusong has been much closer than when the banquet was opened, hearing Wang Tong ask about Liaozhen and Jurchen, Li Rusong drank a glass of wine leisurely, and asked with a smile: "I don't know if the Hou Ye wants to listen to the official article or the truth?" It's not that Li Rusong is frivolous, firstly, he can speak casually at the banquet, and secondly, Wang Tong is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, this inquiry may not be his own intention, if he asks on behalf of the Son of Heaven, it must be according to the report and the newspaper, everyone knows it, but this truth is different, Li Rusong is the eldest son of Li Chengliang, the chief soldier of Liao Town, and naturally knows something that others don't know.

"Nature is the truth." , Wang Tong also said with a smile, looking at Li Rusong's speech and style, he really didn't care much about Liaozhen, Li Rusong picked up the chopsticks and picked up some food, and sent it down with wine, which was also to give himself a time to think and groan.

"Since Master Hou asked like this, the lower official will tell the truth, it must be a fake fight." , Li Chengliang really told the truth, although Wang Tong could probably judge the situation, but when he heard Li Chengliang say this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"Li Pinghu, Qin Deyi, Sun Shoulian, plus my father's sons and godsons, all know one thing, the shoe thieves outside cannot be annihilated, they must fight slowly, more than 100 heads at a time are enough to be promoted and rich, there is no need to drive others out." , looking at this appearance, I don't know if this Li Rusong is drunk or what, anyway, the words are not very clear, but the words are endless.

"Godsons are different from godsons, the east is different from the west, these are in the north of Xuanfu, those who ride horses and graze outside the border wall of Liao Town all day are no different from those in Liao Town, one by one, one by one, farming, raising pigs, fishing and hunting in autumn and winter, nothing more than Han people in Liao Town, and foreigners outside Liao Town............ Such a captive, the army is dispatched, what is difficult to exterminate, and it is not on the grassland, forcing the anxious son to run here on horseback, staring at the village, the village, there is always a time when they have nowhere to run......"

These words are also a foreshadowing, but Wang Tong concentrated, Li Rusong's words made Wang Tong react one thing, the Jurchens are not nomads, they are settled and support themselves through farming, fishing and hunting and trade, which is very different from the ancient tribes of Meng on the grassland.

Settlement meant they were more organized, farming meant they had access to a steady supply of goods and more than the mengu tribes on the steppe, and the highly coordinated semi-militarized operations of fishing and hunting allowed their men to be trained to a certain extent, and trade allowed them to communicate with the outside world without being left behind.

Such a foreign race, in a short period of time, can not compare with those big tribes on the grassland, to submit to the hegemony of the grassland, but for a long time to look at them is more terrifying, "......, the Jurchens can also ride horses, usually trained diligently, do not dare to rush when fighting, so many people in Liao Town have Jurchen family members under their hands, and there are many Jurchen women and slaves raised by some people, some of whom are not low, and some people have long become the henchmen of the master's family, this relationship is intertwined, everyone knows each other, Li Pinghu has been on the border wall of Liao Town for a long time, There are also many Jurchens under his hands, what to fight, it's not a fictional ......story", this is expected by Wang Tong, the border trade has been in contact with each other for so many years, and the relationship must be intertwined, and they will not do it with real knives and guns.

Wang Tong asked Liaozhen to conquer and exterminate the Jurchen tribes through pressure from all sides, knowing that there would be no efficiency, but at least doing so would make the two sides more or less contradictory, and there would be a fight between true and false, which was better than sitting back and watching the other party swell.

But now Wang Tong is not paying attention to this, but the Jurchens are soldiers in Liaozhen, and they are still in the core of the military circles in Liaozhen, and they also know the military establishment and military technology of the Ming Dynasty, that is to say, the Jurchens are not any tribal riots now, and his military strength is also formally trained, and he knows the officials and soldiers of Liaozhen well, "Are the Jurchens building their own weapons in their hands, or are they going to Liaozhen to buy them?" ”

"They build their own, they can strike iron by themselves, and they learned the ability to make armor and weapons in Liaozhen very early, and these shoes are really good and never cut corners." Seeing Wang Tong's cautious expression, Li Rusong said with a smile: "Does Master Hou think that Liaozhen is used to it, they are also used to it, and they are afraid that after the thieves outside are wiped out, they will lose their own foothold, and the lower officials also wrote a letter to urge and urge, so why worry about the thieves who can rely on them." "How many people can there be on the Jurchen side?" Wang Tong's question made Li Rusong ponder, and replied with some uncertainty: "Hundreds of thousands of people, some people say millions, but this is not accurate, Hou Ye doesn't know, those Tartars in the north and east of Liao Town, some are ancient people, and some who know what kind of race, as long as they live there, they are all called Jurchens." The people who should have asked have already been asked, this was originally a casual conversation and drinking banquet, and it would be inappropriate to talk too much, Wang Tong also stopped this topic, and the two talked about something else.

When the banquet was about to disperse, Li Rusong obviously hesitated, left the table deeply, and said sincerely: "So that the Hou Ye knows that although Xiaguan's father has not been enterprising in recent years, he is a little arrogant, and those brothers and colleagues of Xiaguan are also obsessed with wealth and nobility, but they are also loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and they dare not have the slightest double-heartedness. I also feel that Hou Ye has stolen the limelight from Liaozhen and done something ridiculous and confused-"

Speaking of this, Li Rusong paused, knelt on his knees, and said again: "My father is old, and I will definitely stay in the position of the general soldier of Liaozhen a lot, and the brothers of Xia Guan are only the role of Shoucheng, and the wrong things in the family, Xia Guan is willing to bear it. ”

"I don't remember anything?"

Wang Tong asked with a smile, Li Rusong, who was kneeling there, was stunned for a moment, then reacted, bowed again, and said sincerely: "Lord Hou is magnanimous, the lower officials are here to thank you!" ”

Wang Tong nodded, since Wang Tong's northern expedition to the naturalization, Liao Zhenming secretly made a lot of small moves, and Sun Shoulian's incident between the two sides was even more directly touched, although the Li family Jiangmen is now also a monstrous force, holding two border towns, and the forces of the disciples have also gone, Xuan He is abnormal, but compared to the current Wang Tonglai, it is really nothing, and compared to them in the border town, Wang Tong is a central minister, or the henchman of the Wanli Emperor.

Not to mention, the relationship between Wang Tong and those big eunuchs in the palace, it is said that Empress Zheng and her family are also friendly to Wang Tong, such forces, it is really crooked, and the Li family may suffer a great disaster.

Originally, the Li family wanted to cure the crime of cutting Shoulian, but in the end, they let Shoulian take a deputy general, but they cut their own meat out, this time Wang Tong went to Ningxia, ordinary people may not know the inside story, but Li Rusong's status should naturally know that Wang Tong let the Whit family go to the official and leave his hometown and calm the chaos, but it made Li Rusong a little frightened.

The Whine family is also a local tycoon in Ningxia, with nearly 3,000 private soldiers under his hands, he actually let Wang Tong less than half a month, and disposed of it lightly, the Whine family is not as good as the Li family, but the Whine family is also a shrunken Li family, Wang Tong has such a means to deal with the real way, the Whine family is treated magnanimously, that is no old grudge, but the Li family is different, Li Rusong naturally drums in his heart.

The atmosphere of drinking today is good, Wang Tong, who originally thought that he was capable but young and vigorous, was a very amiable person and valued interests, Wang Tong asked about the Jurchen, but it made Li Rusong's heart suddenly, and he simply took advantage of the wine to spread out this and talk about it.

"If the official doesn't agree, you will say that you are drunk and lose your temper!"

Wang Tong asked with a smile, Li Rusong also laughed, the atmosphere in the banquet was much better, and the next thing was pure chat.

Speaking of Datong border town during the banquet, but there is a joke, now Datong town is very peaceful, the generals and soldiers of the fortress and fort are idle and panicked, simply do business, close to the checkpoint, or let the soldiers do labor porters, or sell nearby, do a handover business, some bold people, directly organize their own caravans to run on the grassland to buy and sell.

These people are doing well, but there are also those who want to make contributions to their careers, and this is depressed.

But some people have come up with a way, such as joining the caravan guards, and reporting the head cut off in the battle as a military merit, although this is suspected of taking the lead, but it is better than slashing and killing one's own family.

Datong General Soldier Ma Dong is all accurate for such military exploits, otherwise he may be the most peaceful person in the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, in the long run, this is not beneficial, and these Datong Town warriors who have the intention to make meritorious contributions go out, and they are also an important force in the business protection of Naturalization City.

In the attack on the Mantaoer gold mine, there was a Datong guerrilla beheaded, and as a result, these heads were returned to Datong, Ma Dong directly gave military merits, and now this guerrilla is about to be promoted to a general, and the eunuch of the supervising army, the governor of Datong has been the governor of Xuanda, and everyone is convenient.

This general is called Ma Gui or something, but everyone can't remember clearly, Li Rusong just laughed when he talked about this, and he also sighed in his heart, that is, five years ago, the military merit was still very valuable, but now, it has become such a situation, if it has been so peaceful, wouldn't there be no need for a martial artist in this world - the wine banquet was dispersed happily.
