Chapter 1217: Scattered

"In the past, this sea ship always made people feel uneasy, either there were too many people in the Cai family, or there were too many people in the Yu family, although these two families are doing things loyally, but anything is too unique and risky, if these people from the Li family can use it, each ship will be much easier to match, and they will contain each other, so there will be a lot less worry." Cheng Dahu looked rough and arrogant from the outside, but he was both a patrol and an internal guard, but his mind was very detailed.

Geng Mancang's eyes were a little dark, he is now the busiest one in the Zhao Ziying Trade Hall, running around Yutou Town and Qingjiangpu, and even going to Jining, all of them are buying grain and storing grain, doing this bank, and the former peers are respectful, this high-spirited is needless to say, but hard work can't run, this big gang change, the containment fleet is the first priority, and he also followed.

"I heard in Qingjiangpu that the ships on the sea surface of Guangdong and Fujian are the northernmost but Zhejiang, they all go to Nanyang and the Wa Kingdom to run, a shipload of goods is a shipload of silver, Zhejiang to Liaodong, in addition to the provinces' own sea ships, is the sand boat caravan on the side of Songjiang Mansion, I mean, if the Zheng family gang can't make any silver in this port, then they are willing to tear their faces and harass, even if he can't get in, we can't stand it just by stopping us outside, but we can make the Zheng family gang make huge profits on our side, They will not use swords and soldiers, after all, they are businessmen. ”

Geng Mancang's analysis made everyone nod, and after finishing speaking, Geng Mancang took out a list and said with a smile: "This is a bill that I calculate that the port and the big gang can make money, these things are also urgently needed in Xuzhou, everyone take a look, if you think it is appropriate, we will jointly report to Qingjiangpu and Xuzhou." ”

There are copper ingots, saltpeter, furs and a variety of Fujian, Guangdong and Nanyang specialties on the manifest, Western commercial goods, and then Zhao Ziying here to sell, from salt goods to artillery is also readily available, and can provide Jiangnan silk in large quantities, this has always been a huge profit in the Wa and Nanyang, Fujian and Guangdong sea lord organization supply is far less convenient than Qingjiangpu here, Shi Manqiang is now also rough text, probably after reading, mentioned: "It's better to add foreign ships, I think the big brother likes Western ships very much, plus this." ”

Geng Mancang nodded with a smile, added a few names to the manifest, Cheng Dahu cleared his throat and said: "Master Jin also brought news to the Second Brigade and Huai'an North District, and it has not yet come true, but it will generally be done in accordance with this." ”

Everyone was immediately engrossed, Cheng Dahu and Geng Mancang both rushed here from Pizhou, which was very close to the center of Xuzhou, and it was not uncommon to bring the news over there, Cheng Dahu deliberately lowered his voice and said: "This time the situation is quiet, Jin Ye will call himself a general, set up a general's mansion, our Zhao Zi battalion will be changed to Zhao Jiajun, Jiading will be changed to sergeant, regimental training will be changed to soldiers, and the firearms brigade will become a regiment, if there is no big war this year after February, then the current system is still outside the city, and the agricultural reclamation division and the grange are subdivisions, In the city, there are Yunshan Xing and Patrol Ding teams gradually controlling. ”

Everyone listened attentively, and Cheng Dahu continued: "After this time, in addition to the central capital of Yanzhou Mansion in Shandong, Dongchang Mansion, Nanzhili Xuzhou, Huai'an Mansion, Yangzhou Mansion, and Fengyang Mansion, and Guide Mansion in Henan, there shall be no garrison or remnant officers and soldiers in these places, and the tax and levy in these places shall be the responsibility of the two departments of agriculture and trade."

Listening to Cheng Dahu's story, everyone's faces were filled with joy, which is equivalent to formally establishing a system, the more at this time, the more I feel that the future is unlimited, Cheng Dahu said: "Jin Ye also specially explained, the more this time, the more important the sea is to us, so this time the fourth master has done a good job, and our second brigade and Huai'an North District have made great contributions." ”

After saying this, everyone smiled, this is a heavy compliment, but Shi Manqiang didn't care about this, just asked: "Didn't Wei Zhongxian mobilize the world's soldiers and horses in Hejian Mansion and prepare for a decisive battle with us?" How's it going? Is it going to be a place for the second brigade again? ”

Everyone is equally concerned about this topic, Cheng Dahu smiled and said: "This is the news of the internal guard, now the border armies of Shanxi and Shaanxi are all standing still, and the border army of Xuanfu has also withdrawn, so Wei Zhongxian's dojo is about to be completed!" ”

**************

Hejian Fucheng Hejian is an important place for soldiers, guarding the gateway to the south of the Beijing Division, guarding the flank of the North Zhili Canal, there are two guards of Shenyang Zhongtun Wei and Datong Zhongtun Wei here, the reason why the name of Shenyang and Datong is hung is because these two guards were transferred to this side almost more than 100 years ago, and now there is no hope of starting a war, but it is also the establishment of 10,000 people.

In addition to the guards, there are more than 5,000 local garrisons, all of which are now concentrated in the villages and towns between Hejian Fucheng and Xian County, and there are already 40,000 troops around Hejian City, in addition to the Beijing camp and local soldiers and horses, there are also Daimyo and Henan defeated general soldier Yang Zhaoji all the way, and Shandong general soldier Yang Guodong all the way, which can be collected and brought out are elite and backbone, and the combat power is still there.

Hejian Mansion is not a good place in Beizhili, there are more saline-alkali wastelands than elsewhere, and the income is found on the canal, which has been delayed a lot in the past two years, and this year is finally about to survive until the beginning of spring, this is the appearance of a big fight, Hejian Fucheng and Caoyun along the line are really noisy soldiers and horses, and the people are naturally complaining and scolding.

If you want to start a war, Hejian Mansion has no benefit, but now the supply of grain and grass for tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the labor of the people has to fall on the place of Hejian Mansion, how can the gentry and people of Hejian Mansion endure it, the officials of Hejian Mansion in Beijing have received letterheads from their hometown fathers, asking them to make a statement to withdraw from the army, Hejian Mansion and Shandong are adjacent, and they are very sensitive to the feng shui grass movement over there, what kind of unwarranted Xuzhou anti-thieves have no signs in Jinan Mansion and Dongchang Mansion at all, and the merchants over there have begun to do business normally, why should Hejian Mansion be abused.

But everyone only dared to do something behind their backs, no one dared to say anything to Gonggong Wei in person, and now it is not the local officials of Fuzhou County who speak in Hejian Mansion, but the factory guards brought by Gonggong Wei and him.

In the Hejian City, everyone was even more trembling, from the Hejian prefect to the Jingying side of the generals, as well as the two defeated generals who returned from Shandong and Daimyo, everyone was afraid, everyone knew that Wei Zhongxian, the chief of ceremonies, the commander and the eunuch, was in an extremely irritable mood, and would beat and kill people if something went wrong.

Now in the center where Wei Zhongxian is located, there are two most important things, one is the progress of the transfer of officials and troops from all walks of life, and the other is the movement of the rebels in Xuzhou.

If the poor people, cults and demons rebel, once the army arrives, even if there will be a small setback, but in the end it will definitely be able to be exterminated, and if the officials and troops can be beaten so badly, it must be the local powerful private soldiers, and it is not possible to have some inextricable relationship with the local officials, and some people even speculate that the Xuzhou side is not a certain big man in the DPRK who is hostile to Wei Zhongxian, which is the layout of this situation.

You must know that tens of thousands of officers and soldiers were captured and destroyed, and they were in the heart of the Ming Dynasty, if it is really a thief, I am afraid that the world is turbulent, and there are beacons everywhere, but at the moment it seems that the situation is very stable, Shandong is as usual, Henan is as usual, and even Xuzhou, Nanzhili, is also as usual, it seems that only the officials and soldiers have suffered a big loss.

Even if you have doubts, you can only hide these questions in your heart, now Zhao Yan, the secretary of the military department of the superintendent, is drunk every day, and he actually recruits two new concubines in this Hejian Mansion, which is completely a wine carnival, regardless of it, and Wei Zhongxian's side is furious and irritable, constantly urging, and the well-informed characters even noticed that the internal officials around Wei Zhongxian actually fled back to Beijing, this wind is not right!

"What do you say? The 5,000 Beijing battalion brought by Xiao Song has already been driven back to the Beijing Division? Where did he get so bold, he dared to move his troops and horses without a military order, this is a sin to kill his head and destroy the door, go and chase after him, chase him and arrest people directly! In Wei Zhongxian's Xingyuan study, Wei Zhongxian was furious there, and the people kneeling below did not dare to raise their heads.

Seeing the people below kneeling still, Wei Zhongxian was even more irritable, grabbed the tea bowl at hand and smashed it down, a eunuch kneeling in front didn't have time to hide, he was directly smashed on the head by this tea bowl, the tea bowl was shattered, and the tea was spilled on the head, the eunuch bowed his head deeper, but he didn't dare to get up, this attack made several brocade guards behind the eunuch look up in fright, and said in fear: "Gonggong Wei, there are only more than 200 people in total, and it is useless to chase after them, and you have to transfer troops and horses to be sure!" ”

His voice was trembling, but Wei Zhongxian did not continue to be angry, and only gasped a few times there, because he knew that what he said was the truth, arresting Wenchen Xungui, a few factory guards, you can do it when you come to the door, but what do you want to do to the generals, don't look at what nobles and lowly soldiers on weekdays, the deputy general of the general army has to kneel in front of Wei Zhongxian, but at this time, it is really not enough to see that hundreds of factory guards have entered the barracks, and the generals over there will send a sentence, and they will be cut directly.

Wei Zhongxian took a few deep breaths there, waved his hand violently and shouted: "Get out of our house, now every military attache above the general level must arrange someone to keep an eye on him, whoever wants to make a move, take someone first, and the rest will not dare to mess around, go quickly!" ”

The people who knelt on the ground trembled and responded, and got up and exited the house as if they were amnesty, Wei Zhongxian sat there for a moment, stretched out his hand to grab the tea bowl but grabbed it empty, and couldn't help but shout again: "Where are the border troops of Shaanxi and Shanxi, our family wants to know the news, are they all abandoned in Beijing?" Go find Zhao Shangshu, if he is still drunk, he will wake up with cold water"
