Chapter 88: Not enough money to spend(1/3)
"drive!"
On October 25, the first year of Taichang, with more than 30 riders riding horses towards the north, the two Jinyiwei cavalry in scorching official uniforms also saw the sound of arrows appearing in the distant sky, and turned to the second row of
A young man said:
"Your Highness, there is the Red Bridge three miles away. Do you need to rest when crossing the Red Bridge?"
As soon as the tik cavalry spoke, everyone knew that he wanted to take care of Zhu Youjian's body, for fear that the other party would not be able to withstand the long-distance attack.
However, he underestimated Zhu Youjian too much, and saw Zhu Youjian reply with a smile:
"But it's called resting for an hour? I'm not tired yet, are you tired?"
"Continue, you must arrive at Yanshan Camp in one hour!"
"As for the order!" Hearing Zhu Youjian's words, all the squads gathered their strength and rode their horses towards Yanshan Camp.
Zhu Youjian, who was sitting on the horse's back, was completely used to riding a horse, except that he felt a little uncomfortable with his thighs.
In comparison, riding a horse is much easier than riding a bicycle, and going is much faster than a carriage.
If you take a carriage, it takes at least six hours to reach the capital city from Changping, which means 72 kilometers per hour, and an average of six kilometers per hour.
But if you ride a horse directly, Zhu Youjian and his party set out at the Mao hour, and now they have arrived at the Red Bridge in just three hours.
In other words, it has been nearly seventy miles in about two and a half hours.
There are only fifty miles left, and I guess we will be able to reach Yanshan Camp before noon.
This is the result of Zhu Youjian and the others not changing horses.
If they have to change horses at the post station halfway, they can reach the capital from Yanshan Camp at most one hour, at most, on the premise that they change horses and don’t change people.
However, Zhu Youjian was not so rushing, so after crossing the Red Bridge, they slowed down their horses and finally saw the Yanshan Camp in the distance at a moment of Si.
"Stop! Who is it?!"
When Zhu Youjian led his men across the flat ground, he immediately saw the horse-rejecting horse, the guard booth, and a team of infantrymen wearing cloth armor.
"You're blind..."
"Hey!" Hearing a Jinyiwei wanted to curse, Zhu Youjian stopped him and then showed his waist card.
As soon as the waist card appeared, the general flag officer in charge of leading the team immediately tightened his pupils and knelt down on one knee and said in panic:
"Your Highness! I don't know if it's Your Highness, please forgive me!"
"Why are you guilty of guarding the front road of the camp? No matter who it is, you must check the token first when you come here, except for long live." Zhu Youjian took a few steps in place and comforted the general flag officer.
.
"Yes! I'll receive the order." The chief banner officer quickly replied, then turned around and said, "Let it go!"
The soldiers next to him were already scared and pulled away to resist the horse, and Zhu Youjian also led his men to cross the checkpoint and ran towards the Yanshan camp.
When they arrived at the camp gate, the Zhejiang soldiers were responsible for guarding the camp gate. They had all seen Zhu Youjian, but even so, they still saluted and called His Highness first, and then asked for a waist sign.
After the release, the Jinyiwei next to him said angrily:
"Your Highness, this is too strict. They all know you, and they also have to look at your waist card."
"It's better to be stricter. Yan's army will fight with its own iron war!" Zhu Youjian smiled and led his people to the schoolyard.
Along the way, I saw many strange faces, and there were many more people in the camp.
Soon someone informed Cao Huachun, Man Gui, Sun Yingyuan, Qin Bangping, Qi Jin and others to come to meet.
Everyone shouted loudly to His Highness and saluted immediately, while Zhu Youjian turned over and dismounted and said:
"No need for Xuli. I will probably stay for ten days when I come to the camp this time and say whatever I need."
"Let me talk about the number of people in the military camp at the moment. It seems that there are a lot more people in the past ten days after I left."
"Your Highness..." Cao Huachun was the first to speak.
As the governor and eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, Cao Huachun was not only responsible for recruiting soldiers, but also supervising generals and organizing the people to immigrate and settle down.
Therefore, he was very familiar with everything about the Imperial Horse Prison and explained to Zhu Youjian:
"Your Highness, in the past seven days, a total of tens of thousands of people have come to join the army, but according to the standards, only 7,643 people have joined the army."
"At present, Tengxiang left guard has been completed, the Warriors battalion has been completed, Tengxiang Right Guard is still missing 2,400 people, and Wuxiang left guard has not yet been established."
"The three guards in Yulin still maintain 6,600 people."
"In the Yanshan camp, including the Zhejiang soldiers and the Shizhu Baigang soldiers, there were more than 26,000 people in total."
"On the west side of the camp, the craftsmen of the Three Guards of Wugong have built an outer camp there, which is currently a place for craftsmen to rest."
"In the past ten days, the Imperial Horse Supervisor spent a total of 64324 taels of silver, of which 600,000 taels of wood and stone were purchased for the construction of the imperial tomb."
"The other 4,300 taels are military expenses..."
After saying all this, Cao Huachun looked at Zhu Youjian, and Zhu Youjian nodded and asked:
"Can the soldiers who come to join the army bring their families to station in the Yanshan wasteland?"
"On your highness, of course, there are 6,432 households in Changping area, and more than 34,000 acres of land have been distributed."
"Have Huairou and Miyun's Tianmu documentary sent?" Zhu Youjian was very satisfied when he heard this data and continued to ask.
"Of course, it was sent. According to the document book, the slopes at the foot of Yanshan Mountain in Changping have a total of 294,300 acres."
"Huairou slope land, 397,300 acres, and Miyun slope land, 310,300 acres, a total of 1,0190 acres."
"According to Your Highness's method, these acres can be immigrated at least about 150,000 households."
"Well..." Listening to Cao Huachun's words, Zhu Youjian was still very satisfied with his behavior of taking everything from the Imperial Horse Supervision.
So he looked at Qi Jin and Qin Bangping and said, "How are the two generals?"
"I am safe and destined to bring your highness the blessing, and the entire army will be replaced with new weapons and armor." Qin Bangping politely returned the gift, and Qi Jin also said:
"Your Highness, I chatted with General Qin and decided to set off together at the end of next month to Liaodong."
"Why is it the end of next month?" Zhu Youjian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when Qi Jin and Qin Bangping looked at the relationship between Qi Jin and Qin Bangping.
In history, the two men were furious, which led to the Battle of Hunhe being defeated one by one.
Now that the two teams are so kind, I think they will never encounter the embarrassing situation in history that they have been defeated one by one.
However, he was still very curious about why the two teams would postpone the time until the end of November, instead of starting on November 20 as set out as previously scheduled.
Regarding his doubts, Qin Bangping explained:
"My sister has already brought three thousand Youyang Baigang soldiers to Xiangyang Prefecture. If nothing unexpected happens, she should have arrived in Changping on November 25 or 6."
"After a little rest, it is safer to bring 6,000 troops to guard Shenyang."
"So that's it..." Hearing Qin Bangping's words, Zhu Youjian nodded and said:
"Since that's the case, I can only bother the two generals and help the Imperial Horse Supervisor train for another month."
"Where is your highness..." Qi Jin smiled and said, "If it is a crisis in Liaodong, I am afraid that we will ask your highness to call troops to support you."
"That's natural!" Hearing this, Zhu Youjian responded with a smile, then glanced at Man Gui and Sun Yingyuan and said:
"Since you have to stay for a long time, then have a good time today!"
‘I will prepare now and ask Yang Jiazhong to come by.’ Seeing this, Cao Huachun proposed to prepare himself, and Zhu Youjian nodded.
The impeachment of Xiong Tingbi is still going on. Maybe he has to ask Yang Lian to help in the future. Of course, he can't leave him behind when he invites him to dinner.
Thinking of this, Zhu Youjian, surrounded by the generals, took a look at the training situation of the army in the martial arts school, and then led his people to the Imperial Horse Supervision Office in the Yanshan Camp.
Just as he was rushing, a noise was happening in a city thousands of miles away.
"If they want to investigate, let them investigate! If I can find out what illegal things are in me, I will impeach you!"
In the Jinglifu Mansion of Guangning City, Liaodong, a tall and middle-aged man wearing a gray round necklace was loud and loud, scolding the officials next to him.
A 40-year-old elegant man wearing a regular fourth-grade dress next to him could only persuade him:
"Feibai, why are you doing this? The fifth prince pleads with you, and so is Yang Wenru and others. Besides, Zhu Tongmeng, who came to inspect, was a disciple of Governor Zhou, so naturally he would not make things difficult for you."
"The Liao incident is difficult now. Without you, how can Liaodong deal with his old slave?"
"Hmph! If they have the ability to frame me, they will have the ability to ask someone to replace me!" The middle-aged man was angry, obviously very angry.
As for his identity, Xiong Tingbi has a hot temper and a bad popularity.
The man who advised him was Yuan Yingtai, the governor of Liaodong who cooperated happily.
Yuan Yingtai saw that he ignored the life and death of the Ming Dynasty in order to get angry. In addition, he had been persuading him for too long, so he instantly became angry and said angrily:
"Okay, Xiong Feibai! I originally thought you were a hero, but I didn't want to resign for the impeachment of a few treacherous villains, so I wanted to resign and return home, and be an incompetent person in that hometown who only knows how to die!"
"Okay, okay! Go! Go and leave now!"
Yuan Yingtai pointed at the yamen gate and shouted angrily. When Xiong Tingbi saw Yuan Yingtai angry, he realized that his behavior was angry with the other party, but his personality was unwilling to give in, so he could only give himself a way out:
"Let them check it out, I'll leave..."
"I can't leave even if I want to leave with stigma..."
To be continued...
