Chapter 32

"Sir, Wan, General Wan is here..."

Suddenly, the shouts from outside interrupted Zhu Mingzhong's thoughts.

General Wan?

Before he could react, he heard the shouts in a Fujian accent into the house.

"Medical Officer Zhu, Medical Officer Zhu..."

Just as Zhu Mingzhong wanted to sit up, Wan Li, who broke into the room, looked at Zhu Mingzhong who had woken up, and his face suddenly looked intimate.

"Medical Officer Zhu, oh, how are you injured? There are good doctors in my camp. Oh, looking at me, I'm so confused, I actually forgot that you are a medical officer?"

This seemingly closeness fell in Zhu Mingzhong's eyes. Didn't he know that General Wan was reminding him of his identity - he was just a medical officer?

This was the first time Zhu Mingzhong saw Wan Li. He had been stationed at Jiangyin City. However, when he first entered the camp the day before yesterday, General Wan didn't even meet him. For Wan Li, he was just a small person worth mentioning.

At this time, Wan Li kept repeatedly emphasizing the word "medical officer" to remind him of his identity.

"Thank you for your concern, your injuries are no longer in the way."

As he spoke, Zhu Mingzhong sat up with his body. Although there was still severe pain in the wound, his face still kept a smile.

"I haven't thanked the general for helping him! Thank you General Wan for helping him last night!"

Although he knew that Wanli was Zheng Chenggong's confidant, Zhu Mingzhong, who had captured Jiangyin for a lifetime, had a clear consciousness - Jiangyin was his foundation. In any case, he would not let Jiangyin go to others, after all, this would be his foothold.

As for the achievements of seizing the city, he could not give up. With the contribution of seizing Jiangyin, he could have the right to speak in Zheng Chenggong and convince Zheng Chenggong so that he would not have been able to get involved in the Qing Dynasty, which ultimately led to the failure of this huge Northern Expedition. This ruined the hope of the Ming Dynasty's revival again!

No matter whether it is private or private, this is a merit!

This city! You can't let it go!

“Hmph…”

Zhu Mingzhong's answer was completely beyond Wan Li's expectations. A "helming kindness" was about repaying his kindness, but in fact he completely abandoned his ten thousand li. If Zhu Mingzhong said "thanks to the general's command well", then the ten thousand li could be divided by the merit of seizing the city.

But now, this "help helper" lightly put aside the contributions of Wanli and more than 10,000 officers and soldiers under his command. There is nothing you can do about this siege. At most, you will only help you!

OK!

Just when Wanli was about to explode, a voice came from the door.

"Sir, you have prepared all the silver and grains for the soldiers who have been prepared for the soldiers outside the city!"

Qian Lei entered the house with the voice of the words. He ignored the obstruction of Wang Dahu, Li Ziyuan and others, and bowed as soon as he entered the house.

"Sir, the villain has prepared money and food. I wonder if the adults are going to ask the young general to escort money and food into the camp to reward the army outside the city?"

Looking at Qian Lei, Zhu Mingzhong was stunned. Who is this person? But he immediately realized that no matter who he is, he was helping him!

Reward the army? How to reward and what to reward?

"Uh, this..."

Just when Zhu Mingzhong didn't know how to talk, Wan Li asked coldly.

"Who are you? Let me tell you, how Lord Zhu arranged for you to reward me for more than ten thousand men!"

Qian Lei said in surprise as if he had seen Wan Li just now.

"Sir, who is this general?"

"I am the general who is under the command of the country's surname, and the more than 10,000 in the camp outside the city, he is under the command of Wan!"

"Oh, Qian Lei met with the general. I didn't know that the general was coming, but he was really in a position to welcome him. The villain was a minor official in the camp, which was really not worth mentioning!"

Qian Lei, who was as sticky as mud as all the masters, first saluted respectfully and then said.

"After entering the city, he ordered the villain to order money and grain from the mansion, with a total of 16,430 taels of silver and 2,485 taels of money. Unfortunately, most of the food was burned in the fire, and the remaining one was only more than a thousand stones. The master knew that the general worked hard last night and ordered the villain to prepare 10,000 taels of silver and 500 stones of rice and grain to reward the army outside the city..."

When Qian Lei said these words, his back kept sweating. The reason why he was nervous was not the money. Naturally, there was money in this mansion. Just before Zheng Chenggong attacked, after the garrison troops in Jiangyin were transferred, Lin Cao and the others recruited all the big families inside and outside the city into the mansion, forcing them to donate to recruit local heroes. Now the money is lying in the bank deposit.

The reason why he was worried was that he would be too reckless. After all, this was equivalent to betting all the treasures on Zhu Mingzhong. As a master, Qian Lei knew very well that whether he could save his life was all in Zhu Mingzhong's words, but what if Zhu's surnamed Zhu couldn't even save his life?

But who else can he choose besides Zhu Mingzhong?

Is it this General Wan?

What will happen if you donate the silver and money in the mansion to General Wan? At most, you can save your head, but what will you get if you help Zhu Mingzhong pass this level?

The man in front of him took Jiangyin within two days, and he will definitely be appreciated and valued by Zheng Chenggong in the future. If he could take this opportunity to hug this big tree, his surname Zhu would be granted a title when the Ming Dynasty was revived in the future. Will Qian Lei be able to achieve success and fame? No need to be like now, just a master who just looks at people's face?

Opportunities are often right in front of you, so Qian Lei, who heard the conversation inside the house outside the door and realized the open and secret struggle between the two, jumped out immediately and took the initiative to free Zhu Mingzhong.

In Qian Lei's opinion, the most important thing now is to appease General Wan and help him save face.

"Oh, Medical Officer Zhu, this..."

When he heard that there was tens of thousands of taels of silver, Wan Li's face changed slightly. He never expected that the Zhu surnamed Zhu would think of himself, especially after Zhu Qingpiao's surnamed had cleared him out of his name. But this money could not deceive people. With this money, no one would say anything even if he didn't go to the city.

Just as Wanli was thinking so much, seeing that he was still pondering, Qian Lei said again.

"General, the reason why there are only five hundred stones of food is that the city set fire to the Qing dogs last night and tens of thousands of people are displaced. My master told us to set up a porridge shed to appease the people. I also asked my master to forgive me. I really can't squeeze out more food..."

Before Qian Lei could finish his words, Wan Li, who had originally had a tense face, stood up and said to Zhu Mingzhong.

"Doctor Zhu, you kid...you can take care of your wounds first, as for Jiangyin..."

Shaking his head, knowing that the other party had no intention of giving the city at all, Wanli, who made the attacker, said with a smile.

"I really don't look down on it..."
