Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 828 Strength (Two in One)

The two sides had their own goals and drank extremely happily.

Xu Dingchen looked at Wu Guojun's state at this time, and finally revealed his purpose:
"Uncle Wu, do you have confidence in fighting the dog tartar this time?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Guojun patted his own chest: "Yes, but not many!"

"Hahaha."

Xu Dingchen stretched out his thumb and said, "He is really an honest person."

If Wu Guojun said that I killed them all, he would only look down on him.

The dog tartars are so flamboyant, they have been in Liaodong for decades, but they have not been wiped out, so there is something powerful about them.

"Governor Xu, can you help my brother with some food and grass?" Wu Guojun pointed outside and said, "I have to drive the dog tartar out of Fanzhi County first."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Xu Dingchen poured another glass of wine for Wu Guojun, it was great that he took the initiative to confront the Golden Tartars after the war.

Besides, this is also the rule of Ming Dynasty. Guest soldiers like him will only fight when they come to the local area, and the local area must support food.

Xu Dingchen didn't want his confidants to die in the battle against the Tartars. He always wanted to recover Shanxi and defeat the hammer bandits as his own responsibility.

Therefore, after controlling the gold mines in Fanzhi County, it would be a loss of money to report to the imperial court to open the mines, and he also hoped that the imperial court would pay his men and horses military salaries.

After all, these people are soldiers of the imperial court, not my Xu Dingchen.

But in fact, these hairy soldiers are all listening to Master Xu, and they don't know who the court is!
"How many people did you bring here?"

"Five thousand." Wu Guojun stretched out his finger and said, "But there are not many elite soldiers, and they cannot fight big battles with dog tartars."

"Okay." Xu Dingchen nodded again and again: "Uncle Wu, as long as you drive away the dog tartars entrenched in Fanzhi County, I, Xu Dingchen, will give you another fortune."

"What great wealth?"

Seeing Wu Guojun's eyes widening, Xu Dingchen smiled:
"If this matter is done well, maybe I will have to be called Lord Wu in the future."

"Governor Xu, please tell me."

"Hammer bandit, congratulations~today~chao!"

Xu Dingchen stretched out his thumb and pointed to the west.

"Hammer Bandit, He Jinzhao?"

Wu Guojun almost bit off his tongue, and kept coughing.

Xu Dingchen stroked Wu Guojun's back affectionately, making him feel comfortable:

"Yes, it's He Jinzhao."

Wu Guojun almost didn't come up in one breath.

Don't you really know the relationship between us?

Or is he testing me on purpose?
"Are we two going to kill him?"

"You kill, I will do the logistics for you."

"hiss."

Wu Guojun gasped, Xu Dingchen wants me to die!
How dare you fucking talk about your wealth?

Lao Tzu, the title of Uncle Jing Liao, was able to get into Daming by relying on Marshal He.

You want me to kill him, are you out of your mind, or am I out of my mind?

I only heard that Xu Dingchen was still brainwashing:
"I, the governor of Shanxi, only control two counties. If you hadn't come, Uncle Wu, I could only control this one county.

Now the court's thigh is broken, if you connect this thigh to the court.

It can kill the thief leader externally, and it can also kill the thief leader internally.

As long as we recapture Shanxi, whether it is money, food or credit, it will belong to you, Marquis Wu. "

Wu Guojun's face tightened, and there was an embarrassed smile on his face.

Xu Dingchen wanted to send himself to death with his empty teeth. Fortunately, he had colluded with He Jinzhao long ago, so he couldn't be fooled by him.

If the Hammer Bandits were really that easy to deal with, how about beating up Cao Cao and fleeing in embarrassment?

Who doesn't know that Cao Wenzhao made great contributions to pacifying the thieves in Shaanxi, but in the end he was given a hammer by He Jinzhao and fined to go to Datong to defend the border!
"The Hammer bandit and the Houjin tartar fought each other, and both sides have already suffered losses. It is time to take the initiative to attack. Uncle Wu, how about it?"

Wu Guojun came back to his senses and laughed loudly: "Governor Xu, who doesn't know that the Hammer Bandits are so powerful, I can't do it alone, and the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, has to contribute.

In the future, if Chen Qiyu wipes out the bandits in Henan and other places, or Datong Mansion, he will attack from all sides, so that he can't care about each other, this can be done! "

Hearing the words of Wu Guojun, a warrior on the battlefield, Xu Dingchen suddenly realized:
"You reminded me that He Jinzhao cannot be wiped out by me alone as the governor of Shanxi."

"That's right. Governor Xu has to contact the Quartet. When the time comes, I, Wu Guojun, will definitely help out. Let's work together."

"It's safe, it's really safe."

Xu Dingchen began to think about the operability of this matter. He had always thought about doing it himself.

After all, it was He Jinzhao who made him lose most of Shanxi's territory, so he had to get it back by himself.

Now that the titans on the battlefield have figured it out all at once, why do they have to do it and take revenge with their own hands?
Since you can't fight alone, let's give full play to the strengths of the court and beat the hammer bandits in groups.

The two of them drank very happily.

Wu Guojun brought a lot of food from Xu Dingchen, and the two shook hands and said goodbye with a smile.

Xu Dingchen watched Wu Guojun go away, and smiled to his confidants:
"This man is capable of fighting, at least courageous."

Wu Guojun spat, and said, "Whether Xu Dingchen has joined the Hammer Bandit or not, I have never been able to figure it out. Is he testing Lao Tzu, or is he really stupid!"

Deputy Commander Wang Peng glanced back: "Uncle, is it possible that he wants to recover Shanxi?"

"You mean he's an idiot?"

"Isn't it rare for civil servants to direct us to defeat?" Wang Peng shrugged: "They are all self-righteous guys."

"good."

On this point, they all hated the civilian officials of Ming Dynasty. After all, a seventh-rank magistrate would dare to show off with you, the commander-in-chief, and not provide food and grass to the passing army.

Just after Wu Guojun returned to the camp, Dorgon led the men with two white flags to retreat in a hurry that night.

Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi Province, couldn't help exclaiming after hearing the news:

"The prestige of Bo Jingliao is so great that the Empress Jin Tartars retreated overnight!"

After Wu Guojun received the news, he didn't immediately pursue it. If it was their strategy to lure the enemy in, it might be.

Therefore, he led his troops close to Yanmen Pass, observed the situation, and went to Taiyuan with a few confidants.

Of course, Liu Zongmin was watching on the front line.

It is important to fight externally, but internal governance is equally important.

The common people support the rule of the hammer bandits, isn't it just to have a stable life and to fill their stomachs?

Summer harvest is naturally very important.

This is related to the ability of many people to have enough to eat.

He Jinzhao still chose an old farmer's field and went down to harvest a crop of wheat.

Then he held it high in his hand, and there was the sound of firecrackers all around him.

Boom, boom, the drums sounded.

"Harvest."

A group of people rushed into the wheat field, although under the scorching sun, the mood of harvest was greater than fatigue.

Don't think that half of the production belongs to Marshal He, but in his small granary, he actually saw his own grain.

People who were refugees in Henan and Shaanxi last year will also have their own wheat this year. Who would not be happy?

The scene here is staged everywhere in Shanxi.

He Jinzhao was sitting on the ridge wearing a straw hat, and there were occasional laughter from around him.

Yang Yuxiu sat on the side, couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for the whole world to have a paradise like the lord."

"Is this the paradise?" He Jinzhao shook his head:
"How many times I am used to living a hard life, and if I am satisfied with my daily life a little, I feel that it is already the best life."

Yang Yuxiu doesn't know what the paradise in He Jinzhao's heart looks like!

But even if it is the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, it is probably not so much, right?
Those aristocratic families control all the means of production, and if the common people can get [-] to [-]% of their own pockets, they are already thankful and boasting of the prosperous age.

Now that fifty percent has fallen into their hands, where can they find such a good thing?
The most important thing is that when the food is delivered, there is no need to be kicked, and there is no need to make the food high. Whoever dares to kick will die!
The way the servants used to eat for generations was directly cut off by the lord and lost.

But compared to Daming, the lord paid them wages, unlike Daming who prostituted them for free, so he tried to find ways to make more money, which led to the corruption of officials.

"My lord, this is something that many people can't envy." Yang Yuxiu squeezed the wheat in his hand and said:

"Even though there is a severe drought in Shanxi this year, the grain output has not been affected much. It is entirely because the Lord has always insisted on building water conservancy and building deep wells."

"Look around Shaanxi and Henan a little bit, and there are mostly hungry people everywhere."

The Ming court had no plan to help the people at all.

After all, wars cost so much money, where else to pay for it?

If they didn't urge the disaster victims to pay taxes, it was already a favor from the imperial court.

When Yang Yuxiu thought of this, he laughed a little. In such confusion, if the lord stretches out his hand to Shaanxi, everyone will surely follow.

The only problem is that Shanxi has consumed a huge amount of food in the past two years.

After all, the rescue of some Mongols last year and the expedition this year required a lot of consumption.

The granary is always full!
This is the most worrying place.

He Jinzhao looked at the harvester in the wheat field in front of him: "Should there be a tool to cut the wheat quickly with such heavy labor?"

"What does my lord mean?"

"It's just that I remember that there was a person operating it. With such a swing, all the wheat in front of me was chopped down and put aside."

Harvester He Jinzhao doesn't know how to do it.

But considering that the sickle has been used for thousands of years and has not been eliminated, it must have great advantages.

"never heard of that."

"never mind."

He Jinzhao waved his hand, he is not very good at inventing and creating, and in the future he can only enlighten some bright and intelligent children.

After so many years, a lot of knowledge has long been returned to the teacher.

"Marshal." Sentinel jumped off his horse, knelt on one knee and said:

"Dorgon withdrew from Fanzhi County overnight, and sent a letter saying that Wu Guojun, the chief soldier of Ji Town, is about to arrive in Taiyuan with a dozen people under his command."

Yang Yuxiu received Dorgon's reply, opened it, read it, and then repeated it to He Jinchao.

It is to prevent dog tartars from poisoning the letter paper, this kind of thing must be prevented.

"Dry words are not nutritious." He Jinzhao waved his hand, fanning the cattail fan: "This friend has been handed over, and it depends on when it will be useful in the future."

Yang Yuxiu didn't pay much attention to the lord's words. For this kind of thing, it's enough to make friends and have a connection, and it's not really a friend who wants to die.

"Let's go back to Taiyuan. We have to clean up Uncle Jingliao later. After all, he is here to deliver food."

Everyone rode their horses and slowly returned to Taiyuan City.

The purpose of He Jinzhao's appearance here is to stabilize the hearts of the people, and at the same time, there are many Jurchen heads hanging on the city wall of Taiyuan.

If it shows that Marshal He has won another battle, you can just farm the land with peace of mind, without worrying about the ten-year contract.

Wu Guojun and the others didn't wear armor, they changed into regular clothes, and rode on the road.

There are many trees on both sides of the road.

There are gullies between the trees and the field ridges, probably for the convenience of watering.

Wu Guojun looked at the people working on the farmland on both sides, and couldn't help but widen his eyes:

"Is there no drought in Shanxi?"

"Where is there no drought in the world?" Wu Dading on the side said blankly.

"But, but."

"It's not that my family's commander-in-chief is willing to spend money on building water conservancy projects and digging wells at a high price, so there is a scene similar to a bumper harvest today."

These means can only minimize the impact of drought, but cannot completely offset it.

Wu Guojun felt that He Jinzhao had been asking for food in exchange, so he designated a shortage of food.

There is drought everywhere in Shanxi, and it is specified that there will be no grain production.

But ever since he entered Yanmen Pass, he could tell that there were people harvesting the hammer bandits' wheat fields everywhere.

After these common people were tired, they straightened up and followed the people beside them to brag loudly that they were good at farming, specifying what awards they would be awarded and so on.

"But?"

"Apart from food, do you think there is anything else that can be obtained?" Wu Dading pointed out bluntly:
"As for the money, my marshal captured King Jin and King Lu, can you give more than them?"

Wu Dading's words left Wu Guojun speechless.

The fact is such a fact, it is really hard for him to accept.

If he hadn't gone deep into the hinterland of the Hammer bandits, then Wu Guojun would still be living in his own imagination.

Wang Peng, the deputy general at the side, became more and more delighted. The stronger the general, the more excited he was.

Daming is full of military disasters and natural disasters, how can how many people can farm the land with peace of mind?

At present, the southern part of the Ming Dynasty has not been affected by military disasters, but natural disasters still occur every year.

Our commander-in-chief is not only good at fighting, but also has extraordinary means of governing the country!

Shanxi is also a dry land, and it is governed so well by the general. It is simply unacceptable for him not to seize the world!
Several confidantes around Wu Guojun also had eyes full of shock.

They thought the Hammer Bandits were quite strong, but they never expected to be so powerful!
Uncle, he also felt that being able to break arms with He Jinzhao in the future was just wishful thinking.

If this trend continues, in the future, if no one can stop the hammer bandits from marching eastward, they will be able to directly attack the capital of the Ming Dynasty, seize the bird position, and proclaim themselves emperor.

Wu Dading really didn't save Wu Guojun any face, let him recognize the facts in front of him, so as not to have any unrealistic fantasies.

The Marshal gave him the opportunity to be Ming's Uncle Jingliao. If he didn't cherish it, he would be able to support another Uncle Jingliao to take the position.

Don't fucking put on a show in front of yourself.

Facing Wu Dading's question, Wu Guojun opened his mouth, but remained silent for a while.

Is He Jinzhao already this powerful?
