Chapter One Hundred and Eight: Brightness and Darkness
In the official hall of the General's Office in Dushikou Fort City, everyone stood up and congratulated Zhang Cheng. Congratulations were heard, and there was a peaceful and joyful atmosphere.
Jin Xinpeng stood up and said: "I really want to congratulate the general. From now on, I will be called the admiral. I want to announce the town to join the general admiral. The general is my first in the Ming Dynasty!"
"Comparing our general, the admiral, and Yongning's deputy commander Zhang, which one is greater?" Chen Zheng asked a question.
Yan Qingrong stroked his beard and said: "It doesn't matter whether you are big or small, it's just about different ministries."
He turned to look at Chen Zheng, who looked puzzled, and continued to explain: "The place where we are waiting is Shangbei Road, and this Shangbei Road, Xiabei Road, including East Road and Middle Road, were originally assigned to the branch guard deputy
Under the rule of General Zhang Guowei, the commander-in-chief.
But now, General Zhang has been favored by the Holy Spirit, and can actually oversee the military affairs of the entire North Road with the Admiral who is assigned to guard the entire North Road. From a career point of view, this means that the authority of Deputy General Zhang has been divided. It can be said that they are on an equal footing.
After our general took charge of the North Road, Deputy General Zhang now only has the East Road and the Middle Road under his control. However, in terms of position and status, the general is still a staff general, and is still inferior to Deputy General Zhang."
"My darling, now I can sit up and sit with the deputy commander, it's too soon..." Chen Zheng sat on the chair and let out a series of sighs.
Zhang Guangda didn't care about anything else. He stood up from the chair and walked to the middle. Then he knelt down and clasped his fists and said, "Zhang Guangda meets the Admiral."
With the leader taking the lead, the sound of kneeling and worshiping came from the official hall one after another. Zhang Cheng sat at the head and accepted it calmly. Now Zhang Cheng has become more and more fond of this feeling of being superior.
If it can be said that when he first traveled through time, his most important thing was to get familiar with and adapt to the world, but the next journey he had to take to King Qin became the beginning of him changing the world and creating his own beautiful life.
The ancients do not deceive me - it is true that if you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later!
From the time when he first arrived, the little Mr. Qian was like a tree without roots and seemed to be erratic. Now, he finally controls a place all by himself, with tens of thousands of people and thousands of troops.
Although it is still not enough to dominate one party, at least he has begun to taste the slightest sweetness. Not only can he sing and dance happily every night, and enjoy the most beautiful bliss in the world, but he is also aloof and has someone to serve and take care of everything. This is much better than what he will enjoy in later generations.
many.
But a sense of crisis also surged in his heart. His current status, territory, even the army under his command, and the beautiful concubine in the mansion were all hard-won. The higher the position, the greater the risk. One wrong step would lead to an abyss.
, all the previous efforts have been wasted.
Thinking of this, he waved his hand, and the official hall suddenly became quiet. Zhang Cheng said in a deep voice: "Master Jin, when I receive the imperial edict, I will prepare to move to Chicheng.
At that time, there will still be Zhongbei Road and Xiabei Road that I will need to take care of. In this case, you and Lord Yan will need to put more thought into the Upper North Road to guard this hard-won property for me."
Jin Xinpeng couldn't help but feel excited. His long-awaited wish was about to come true.
At this moment, no one knew better than him how dangerous he had been. If he had not wisely taken refuge with Zhang Cheng, but had colluded with Xue Liangqing and others, I am afraid that he would be the one who was publicly criticized.
How can it be like this now? Not only has he been promoted to the position of commander of the Kaiping Guards, but in the near future, he will become the one who speaks volumes about the Shangbei Road.
Although there is Zhang Cheng, the general who oversees the North Road, he is also the one who calls the shots on the North Road. Even if he does not occupy military fields and enslave military households, he at least maintains a facade for future generations.
The highest point of the Jin family.
At that moment, he stood up from his seat excitedly, bowed and said: "Admiral, please relax, I will do my best to serve you, and guard the upper north road together with Lord Yan."
Yan Qingrong next to him still had a calm expression and said very calmly: "Please rest assured, general, Qingrong will do his best to live up to the general's trust."
Zhang Cheng was deeply pleased. After Xue Liangqing and Wu Youlu made such a fuss, no one on the Shangbei Road would dare to cause trouble anymore. According to his estimation, not only the Shangbei Road, but also the guards on the Xiabei Road were known to thousands of households.
What he did would make his heart tremble with fear.
It's just that as the area under my jurisdiction expands, the things I will encounter in the future will become more complicated, but what can I do? I am now on a road of no return, and even I don't know where the end is!
He shook his head to dispel his inappropriate thoughts, his eyes were filled with bright light again, and he said in a deep voice: "There is a message from the capital. The lieutenant general who came to convey the order this time will not return to the capital, but will directly act as
My surveillance officer on the North Road!"
There was another discussion in the official hall, some good and some bad.
Okay, let’s just say that Xuan Town has just sent a lieutenant to monitor. Now the palace has sent a lieutenant to monitor the North Road. This shows that the emperor attaches great importance to the North Road, and of course to Zhang Cheng, the admiral.
Pay attention to.
The bad thing is that if there are constraints from the Zhongguan, it may not be that easy to do things on Beilu in the future. This is not like having an extra godfather. He will watch you do your work and will come over to guide you from time to time.
Fan, you still can’t stop listening?
Zhang Cheng had no idea about this, but he thought it was a good thing.
Firstly, it shows that the court attaches great importance to it; secondly, with the supervision around, he likes gold and silver, fields, or fun, and all of them satisfy him. However, if there are other constraints on the north road, there will be supervision from the palace.
Here, he can also step in to settle the matter.
In Zhang Cheng's eyes, everything has two aspects, good and bad. It doesn't matter what proportion of good and bad each accounts for. People who really know how to do things will only carry forward the good and try their best to prevent the bad aspects from showing up.
Taking advantage of the situation and following the trend is what Zhang Cheng believes is the best principle in life. If there is momentum, take advantage of it. If there is no momentum, then create momentum!
Just listen to Zhang Cheng's instructions: "Looking at the time, the supervisor will arrive in Yanqing. Niu Sheng is accompanying the guards all the way over there. It's better for us to fall behind in terms of etiquette."
When he said this, he glanced at everyone in the hall again, and then said: "Chen Zhong, send a quick horse to order Zhang Guodong of Chicheng to go to Diaohao Fort to meet the Zhongguan."
Then he looked at Jin Xinpeng and Yan Qingrong with bright eyes, and said: "I have stretched out my arrows again in the past few days. It is really difficult for me to travel far, so I have to trouble Lord Jin and Lord Yan to go to Yunzhou for me to greet the angel."
…………
On the same day, Zhang Guowei, the deputy commander-in-chief of the branch who was stationed in Yongning City.
"Isn't this an overt resignation and a secret promotion? I really didn't expect that the Holy One would be so favorable to Zhang Cheng!"
Deputy Commander-in-Chief Zhang Guowei held a letter in his hand and was so angry that he stamped his feet. He originally thought that the court would definitely punish Zhang Cheng this time, but he never expected that Zhang Cheng, a mere general, could be punished.
He was the admiral in charge of military affairs on the North Road.
So, what else does Zhang Guowei, a dignified deputy general, do but manage the East Road?
