Chapter 48: Such a beauty is worth dying of exhaustion
"With the support of the military commander, there will be no obstacles to this training. I originally planned to clean up the military camps, recall the military households, and vigorously cultivate crops. This will not only supplement the needs of military training, but also fill the national treasury. When the army is first formed, we can eradicate the banditry.
, stabilizing the place is considered as a way to train the army."
Zhang Cheng also spoke politely, and at the same time revealed his plan. His meaning was very clear. I am going to do this. As a soldier, you have the right to know, but you cannot stop me.
Seeing that the soldier, He Chongwu, was drinking tea and was not in a hurry to speak, Zhang Cheng said again: "In the capital, the emperor is eagerly looking forward to me to announce the town to quickly build a powerful force to relieve the country's worries. Zhang Cheng is thinking about it with all his energy. Every time he thinks about it, it is
Can't sleep at night,
The Eastern captives repeatedly raided the border and harassed the capital. Zhang Cheng was extremely resentful. For the current plan, he must not stick to the old rules and must think about changes before he can make progress. Even if the road ahead is full of thorns, he must break through it. "
After hearing what Zhang Cheng said, He Chongwu took another sip of tea, pondered for a moment, and then said: "When the country is in trouble, we miss our good generals! Since General Zhang has such an idea, he can go ahead and do it, but if there are any omissions, I will bear with you.
There are also fuchen and governors who will not sit idly by and ask questions.
It's just that since ancient times, heroes have always had a hard time with beauties. The alcoholism and lust are the most debilitating to people's ambition and fighting spirit. Although these Liu sisters are beautiful and beautiful, you should not be too obsessed with loyalty, so that you miss your bright future!"
After Zhang Cheng heard what He Chongwu said, he was suddenly shocked. He accepted the Liu sisters only after the banquet last night. How could this old guy know everything this morning?
It seems that there are not only those who worship martial arts in yesterday's banquet, but also his office as a general is not leak-proof. However, fortunately, it is not a big deal for Zhang Cheng to accept one or two women.
Now that you've done it, don't be afraid. What's the point of fighting for my life on the battlefield?
I don’t really want to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, to honor the ancestors, and to ennoble the descendants.
It’s not just about living and living better, what is living well is naturally having gold and silver in your hands and sitting in the arms of a beautiful woman!
But the words cannot be said so straightforwardly. At that moment, Zhang Cheng replied with a respectful look: "This matter is indeed a bit abrupt, but in the presence of such beauty, there is no reason not to eat it.
However, please be at ease, Lord Military Officer, Zhang Cheng will definitely not indulge in the pleasure of bed and delay military affairs. I will set off for Dushi tomorrow to hand over military affairs with General Liu Shen and start recruiting troops for training."
When He Chongwu heard Zhang Cheng's first sentence, he was stunned for a moment. It was not until he finished listening that he felt slightly relieved. He said in a deep voice: "Zhongchen, the place on the North Road is also uneasy. Not only the military households are fleeing, but also the soldiers from various camps are fleeing."
for patients,
As far as I know, within the jurisdiction of Shangbei Road, there are several groups of big bandits, and there are even more than ten groups of small bandits. They wander around and live in no fixed place. They are the most difficult to eradicate and the worst disaster.
Now that you are on duty, you must eradicate them thoroughly."
…………
It was late noon when we left the garrison office.
Zhang Cheng and more than ten people were riding on Chongwen Street. There were many pedestrians and they didn't dare to run. They had to walk slowly and looked at the shops on both sides. It turned out that the Red Castle was quite bustling during the day.
When the group returned to the General's Office, Du Rucheng was already waiting outside the gate. When he saw Zhang Cheng returning, he ran forward and rushed to take the reins of the horse. After Zhang Cheng dismounted, he hurriedly reported: "General, we are here
Some young men have been selected from the Red Castle and have been published in a booklet. Would you like to take a look?"
Without stopping, Zhang Cheng slowly walked into the door, followed closely by Du Rucheng. Zhang Cheng went directly to the central hall and sat down, and Chen Zhong also followed in.
After sitting down, Zhang Cheng said to Du Rucheng who was standing there: "Du Rucheng, you can send this roster directly to Wu Youlu and transfer the people here first.
I will set off for Dushi Fort tomorrow. You have to take good care of this official office. Anshun has sent others to clean the front hall, middle hall, and barracks. Those women will be responsible for the back hall. Your team
He is responsible for guarding the gate."
"Oh, and you go find someone to select the residences of these ten military households, their homes, and their close relatives outside, and record them in detail into a booklet, which I will read."
Du Rucheng answered softly, carefully writing down Zhang Cheng's request, and then heard Zhang Cheng say again: "Chen Zhong, please leave one hundred taels of silver for this Du Rucheng in case of emergency.
Oh, and also, when you go to the market to hire a carriage, remember to look for a better handlebar type. The carriage should also be larger and more comfortable. I will accompany you to Dushi tomorrow."
Chen Zhong agreed and took Du Rucheng to the barracks to get the money. They chatted while walking. Du Rucheng also volunteered to accompany Chen Zhong to visit Chicheng and hire a handlebar type together.
Watching them leave, Zhang Cheng sat in his chair without getting up. He took a sip of the hot tea brewed by Lao Jun and thought about what he had experienced in the past two days.
First, there was Wu Youlu's night party, and then he sent to himself the prostitutes who had redeemed themselves. As a result, He Chongwu, the military commander, found out about this the next morning, and he became suspicious of himself, and even accused himself in the conversation.
All this happened very suddenly, but it happened naturally. He was in good health, and he had the care of his cabinet minister Yang Sichang and his governor Chen Xinjia. He was about to take over as the commander-in-chief of Shangbei Road.
It was completely reasonable for Wu Youlu to take the opportunity to curry favor with himself in order to secure his official position in Chicheng Guards. At this time, banquets and giving away daughters had long been commonplace in the Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Cheng also thought that the main reason for He Chongwu's suspicion was that he was young and before he officially took office, he was having a lot of fun at banquets, hugging each other, and even sleeping until midnight.
He guessed that He Chongwu might be worried that Zhang Cheng's reputation was empty, but he was actually a mediocre person who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and could not shoulder the responsibility of training a powerful team.
But there is one thing that Zhang Cheng has not been able to figure out, and that is how He Chongwu knew about last night's banquet and the gift of his daughter. Was there anyone from the Chongwu faction at the banquet, or was there someone deliberately plotting against him.
If there is anyone from the martial arts sect in the banquet, it is normal and nothing more.
But if someone has evil intentions and does such insidious things, but is secretly plotting against himself, then he should think about it carefully.
Zhang Cheng secretly made up his mind that he would lose his wife and his life!
…………
The sun was shining on the earth, and the warm wind was blowing on people. A group of knights galloped on the official road. There was also a gorgeous car guarding them. From time to time, melodious singing could be heard from the car.
Zhang Chengce was on the horse. Although he felt extremely happy and comfortable in his heart, the fatigue of his body and the exhaustion of his legs also made him helpless.
He turned around and looked at the slowly moving carriage, still smiling happily, thinking:
