Chapter 59 Ning Haijun’s only shortcoming

Chapter 058

This time is one time, that time is another time.

When he came to Dengzhou City again, Cheng Shijie's appearance was also different.

This time he brought fifty personal guards. These fifty personal guards were divided into two teams, one at the front and one at the front, forming two columns to guard Cheng Shijie's carriage. The two soldiers at the head of the team were holding two vermilion banners.

Embroidered with official script words are: "Dengzhou Ning Haijun garrison Cheng!", "Mingwei General Cheng".

When fifty personal guards were clad in armor, with dog-leg knives hanging on their waists, pistols and spears, heads held high and chests held high, without squinting, their fifty feet were raised and lowered at the same time, making a strange journey.

Rhythm, the whole army is as neat as two ropes pulled straight.

Especially the sound of the fifty guards' feet stepping on the stone pavement in Dengzhou City was particularly clear. This unique march quickly attracted countless people to watch.

Of course, the people are still afraid of the army. Three months ago, outside Dengzhou City, the tragic massacre of Liaodong refugees by the Dengzhou Army is still vivid in our minds.

But the silent march of this different army gave people a sense of peace of mind. When Cheng Shijie and his troops walked over, the people began to talk.

"Who led this army? Military discipline is so strict, no one speaks!"

"Don't talk, don't even look at me!"

An old woman named Xu, who still retains her charm, said with some regret.

"You don't know, they are Ning Haijun!"

"Ning Haijun? When did we have such an army in Dengzhou?"

"Does Dengzhou Weizuo Qianhu know about it?"

"Know!"

"They are actually from Qianhusuo..."

Before this dear friend could finish speaking, someone immediately retorted: "Fart!"

In this era, one would rather believe that a sow can climb a tree than to believe that a guard is reliable. No one knows what a Dengzhou guard looks like!

"Don't believe this. More than two months ago, Cheng Qianhu, the new appointee of Dengzhou Weizuo Qianhu Station, led the military households of Qianhu Station to kill the ruthless bandit Qin Wu!"

"Not only Qin Wu, Qin Sanshan, Mountain Tiger, Forest Leopard, Flying on Grass, Zhenshan Tiger, Xiao Li Guang, all the bandits who can be named have been killed by Ning Haijun!"

"so smart?"

"You will know if you go to Ninghai Prefecture now. I guarantee that there will be no bandits who dare to come out to rob!"

"It would be great if every officer and soldier was like them! If we had more troops with such strict military discipline, would we still need to suffer so much?"

…

Cheng Shijie was unaware of these common people's comments. He was sitting in the carriage carriage and felt that it was a little stuffy in the carriage, so he opened the window to let some air in. At this time, Dengzhou City was still filled with piles of garbage and the ground was filthy.

In terms of hygiene, compared to Ninghai City, Dengzhou City is more like a rural place.

The horse continued walking along the long street.

Just when passing by the Xingping Pawn Shop, Cheng Shijie suddenly shouted: "Stop!"

Because Cheng Shijie saw an acquaintance, and said he was familiar with him, but in fact he had only met him twice. That was Liu San whom Cheng Shijie met when he first came to Dengzhou City.

At this time, Liu San was wearing shabby single clothes and shivering in the cold wind. He was begging a scar-faced man in a fancy dress. However, the scar-faced man was very arrogant and threw Liu San down.

on the ground.

When Liu San struggled to get up, he covered his arms, showing that he had fallen badly.

Liu San could no longer recognize Cheng Shijie at this time. In fact, Cheng Shijie could hardly recognize himself. He had lost at least fifty pounds in just over three months. He didn't know how.

What's going on, I just feel like a different person now.

"Cheng Hu!"

"Father!"

"Go and ask what's going on!"

Today is different from the past. A ruffian like Scarface is no longer worthy of an interview with Cheng Shijie.

Not long after, Cheng Hu returned to the carriage: "Reporting to my adoptive father, I have found out clearly that this Liu San borrowed money from Lai Wu in order to treat his mother's illness..."

Cheng Shijie said: "Go and ask how much money you have, and pay Liu San's debt to him!"

"yes!"

Cheng Shijie is not a good person, but he has lived in Ninghai City for a long time, which is 20 to 40 miles away from Dengzhou. It is a bit inconvenient. He plans to set up an office in Dengzhou City, like the local provincial office in later generations, to be responsible for some daily tasks.

Inquire about trivial matters and news.

Just like this time, there was no news about Zhang's lawsuit against him in Laiyang, but Liu San was a local snake in Dengzhou City, hanging out on the streets. Although it was not good, Liu San was diligent and honest, maybe just

Missing an opportunity.

If Liu San has the ability to handle Cheng Shijie's affairs in Dengzhou, then give him some support. Cheng Shijie's house in Dengzhou is empty anyway.

Lai Wu was a ruffian with good eyesight. Although Cheng Shijie was a military attaché, in the eyes of civilian officials, a military attache was nothing, but in the eyes of these ruffians, a military attache was still a great person.

Cheng Hu wanted to repay Liu San's debt, but Lai Wu didn't dare to open his mouth. After receiving the principal of 800 yuan, he didn't dare to ask for the interest, so he handed over the IOU directly, which was regarded as clearing everything.

Liu San knelt in front of Cheng Shijie's carriage. The clothes on his body were too thin, and there were only a few taels of cotton in the layers of his robe. His body was shaking with cold.

Cheng Shijie got off the carriage and took off his open fur cloak and put it on Liu San: "Liu San!"

Listening to Cheng Shijie's voice, Liu San recognized Cheng Shijie and immediately knelt down again.

Cheng Shijie patted Liu Sand and said, "I want you to run errands for me from now on. What do you think?"

Liu San was a little excited: "Little man...thank you sir!"

"By the way, who else is in your family?"

Cheng Shijie said: "I have a house in Dengzhou City, and I still need some handymen. If there are other people at home, please come with me!"

"I still have my mother at home, and my sister Wu Niang!"

Liu San originally had seven brothers and sisters. The eldest brother, Liu San, had never met him because he died before he was one year old. However, his second brother had met him. He served in the corvee last year and never came back. The fourth brother was killed on the dock two years ago.

The evil wolf bit her leg, and she had no money for medical treatment. She couldn't survive it for half a month, so only the fifth sister was sold to others as a child bride. The sixth sister was frail and sick and only lived to be three years old. As for the seventh sister, she is now nine years old.

Liu San's family is actually the epitome of the common people in the late Ming Dynasty.

"Bring your mother and sister to Shiqiao Lane and take care of the house. It's not a heavy job!"

Cheng Shijie said: "Cheng Hu, take Liu San to make arrangements!"

"Yes, foster father!"

Liu San was in tears at this time. He was about to kneel down. Cheng Shijie helped him up and said: "The man has gold under his knees, do your best!"

Cheng Shijie got in the car directly and continued walking towards the Dengzhou Prefecture Yamen.

Arriving at the Yamen of Dengzhou Prefecture, Cheng Shijie directly entered the atrium of the Yamen under the guidance of Peng Jianhong.

After waiting for less than half an hour, Sun Yuanhua came over with Xu Dacheng.

Cheng Shijie bowed and said, "I would like to pay my respects to Mr. Futai!"

"Shijie, no gifts!"

Sun Yuanhua stepped forward to help Cheng Shijie up and said, "How is Ning Haijun's training now?"

Sun Yuanhua initially sued Cheng Shijie for the massacre of the people because of the Zhang family in Laiyang. However, after Sun Yuanhua investigated, he found that the household registration of Zhangzhuang Village proposed by the Zhang family in Laiyang actually had brand new ink marks. As an experienced official, Sun Yuanhua recognized it at first sight.

Come on, this document is a forgery.

When Sun Yuanhua directly rejected the petition filed by the Laiyang Zhang family, it was obvious that he no longer gave the Laiyang Zhang family face.

Historically, Sun Yuanhua did not expect that Kong Youde would rebel. As for the matter of stealing chickens, it was too small to deserve his attention, so he naturally did not defend Kong Youde.

But things are different now. Dalinghe is now running out of ammunition and food, and the imperial court has ordered him to lead the Denglai New Army to expedition to Liaodong. Under this situation, Cheng Shijie's role is very important.

He couldn't trust the Shandong Dudu Commandery Division, nor the Shandong Beiwa Dudu Division, but he believed in Cheng Shijie who he had single-handedly helped. Sun Yuanhua was willing to take the lead for Cheng Shijie, and would rather refute the face of the local snake of the Laiyang Zhang family, because Cheng Shijie was valuable.

.

In fact, this is also true in the workplace of later generations. Cheng Shijie actually has no backing in Hansteel Group. There are people who want to squeeze him out. But the problem is that any leader hopes to have all kinds of talents under his hands.

, are good at flattery, flattering them and making them feel happy.

We also need someone who is good at observing words and emotions, who can understand what the leader means with just one look. Of course, we also need people who are good at work and capable of doing things. Cheng Shijie is such a person with solid business skills.

After all, any unit needs political performance, and any unit or organization cannot lack people who can do practical things. If such people are gone, the unit or organization will become a balloon that will burst as soon as it is poked.

Is the IQ of leaders lower than that of ordinary people?

The answer is yes, their IQ is not low and they will not make obvious mistakes.

Cheng Shijie said: "Ning Haijun is well-trained now, but there is still a lot of shortage of equipment for the time being. Fortunately, the mechanical equipment sent by Mr. Futai, if he can understand these equipment thoroughly, Ning Haijun will definitely be able to become a full-service man with well-equipped and well-trained personnel."

The plain tiger and wolf troops, under the command of Lord Futai, will fight wherever they point!"

"very good!"

Sun Yuanhua smiled faintly and said: "Shijie, you came at the right time this time. Last time you said that you would build the Ning Navy into a force with infantry, cavalry, navy, artillery, and other combined arms. The cavalry in the Ning Navy

We have it, we have artillery, we have musketry, we have both long and short soldiers, and the last shortcoming is the navy."

"That's why there are dense rivers in Dengzhou Prefecture. Although most of the rivers are blocked, once they are dredged and cleared, it will not only facilitate the irrigation of fertile fields in the basin, but also allow troops to be quickly mobilized to where they are needed through waterways. Having a naval force is very important to Ningxia

For the Navy, it is very important!”

"I will help you make up for Ning Haijun's shortcomings!"

Sun Yuanhua smiled and said: "Without further ado, let's go to Penglai Water City now, and you can also meet your naval commander."

Cheng Shijie said: "I will take your orders!"

PS: I got off work too late yesterday. I didn’t get home until 11:30 in the evening. I wrote more than a thousand words and actually fell asleep. I’m very sorry. I’ll see you later.
