Chapter 671 Rewarding the Banner Camp
Taiyuan has been an important town since ancient times, especially after Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty conquered the world here, all dynasties have attached great importance to Taiyuan, and the Qing Dynasty was no exception. At its peak, it had as many as 1 troops. After the San Francisco Rebellion, the world was settled. Nearly half of the Eight Banners stationed in Taiyuan were transferred to Xi'an, and some were transferred to Henan. Even so, the Eight Banners stationed in Taiyuan The army has always remained at 250. Although the strength of the troops is not large, when it comes to combat effectiveness, even if the Green Battalion Army in Shanxi Province is combined, it is far less than the elite of the Eight Banners Army. It seems that these troops are stationed in Taiyuan. The most heavily guarded place, but today is the entrance of the camp gate, with colorful flags fluttering, more than [-] generals of all levels lined up outside the camp gate, and there are even drum bands waiting on both sides. He, all this is because the imperial envoy Wang Ye Hongqing is about to inspect Qiying.

Not to mention how many benefits Hongqing has made for the disciples of the Eight Banners, nor to say that Hongqing is the most trusted grandson of the old man. The slightest bit of negligence, as soon as they heard the news from the imperial envoy Xingyuan, the entire banner camp became busy, cleaned it overnight, and arranged various arrangements for welcoming the driver. Now everything is ready, just waiting Welcome Hong Qing's arrival in the most solemn way.

"coming!"

"Look, here we come!"

……

The time is approaching, the sun has risen three poles, and the temperature is getting higher and higher. All the soldiers in armor and armor are unavoidably a little panicked. When they are anxiously waiting, they see colorful flags on the corner of the street in the distance. Flying, a large group of people and horses are coming around surrounded by a luxurious carriage, and the group of generals who were originally neatly lined up suddenly became commotion.

"Play music, hurry up, play music!"

Seeing that Hongqing's car was approaching, Kuining'an didn't care to stop the chaos of his officers and soldiers, waved his hand in a haste, and gave the order hastily. Not daring to be negligent, they all played hard, and the gongs and drums were loud and lively.

"The last general, Shanxi Banner Commander Kuining'an, led all the generals to meet the prince!"

Amidst the din of drums and music, the approaching brigade finally stopped not far from the gate of the camp. The two palace guards lifted the curtains of the car, one on the left and one on the right, and immediately saw Hong Qing in a neat royal uniform. Having already bent down and got out of the carriage, Quiningan didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly rushed to the front, a standard salute, and greeted him with great respect.

"General Kui doesn't have to be like this, let's just be flat."

Hong Qing nodded reservedly, raised her hand, and cried out very warmly.

"twitter!"

Kuning'an was not familiar with Hong Qing, that is, they had met several times when Hong Qing came to Taiyuan two years ago. Now that Hong Qing was coming to Qiying for inspection, Kuning'an felt very uneasy, and there was nothing to do. Yes, because the title of "Official Butcher" on Hong Qing's head is too frightening. Even though she had made arrangements in advance, Quining'an still felt very uncomfortable, and she was afraid that she would be killed by Hong Qing. Qing picked out something wrong, of course, she didn't know whether to return it or not, and the etiquette on the big face, Quining'an will not lose, Hong Qing cried out at this, and she said it neatly He responded with a sound, full of spirit, but also showed the true qualities of a soldier.

"Well, this king has heard that General Kui is good at leading troops. I saw him today, and he is really good. The generals are like dragons, and the soldiers are like tigers and leopards. Not bad, very good!"

Although Hongqing handled the case according to the order and held the power to control Shanxi's military and government, in the final analysis, he did not have the power to control Shanxi's banner battalion. Although this is in the name of inspection today, in reality, it is just a fight It's just a side-ball, it's impossible to really act like an imperial envoy, and it's impossible to show others with a solemn face, so when you speak, you only choose nice words.

"My lord is too famous, I really don't dare to be the last general, please come inside!"

When Kuningan went to the suburbs to meet Hongqing a few days ago, he had seen how Hongqing lost face to Su Keji on the spot. Today, he put on such a grand welcome ceremony because he was afraid that Hongqing would pick on him, but at this time he heard Instead, it was Hong Qing's compliment, and she couldn't help but feel a little flustered in her heart, and the smile on her face suddenly became extraordinarily bright.

"Well, don't worry, this king is also a person who has led soldiers. Today, I see that your soldiers under Quiningan are so energetic and look like a strong army. I am very happy. I would like to ask General Kui to introduce all the generals. How about getting acquainted with this king for a while?"

Hong Qing waved her hand, declined Quiningan's invitation, and proposed with a smile.

"The last will obey!"

Hearing Hong Qing's words, Kuining'an felt that she was honored, so she would not have any objections. She bowed her hands respectfully and accepted the promise, and then led Hong Qing to the front of the welcome queue, and waved her hand with a smile on her face. , ordered loudly: "It is the honor of our camp that the king of Renjun came to inspect our camp. Let's all come forward and greet each other."

"The last general, the deputy general of the Shanxi Banner Camp, Zhao Jiaju, has an audience with the prince!"

"The last general, Kejun, the deputy general of the Shanxi Banner Camp, sees the prince!"

"The last general in Shanxi Banner Camp, Duolong, is meeting the prince!"

……

Needless to say, Hongqing's reputation is outstanding, and everyone present is a bannerman, all of whom are well-informed, and they know that Hongqing's future is limitless. Hongqing, a big tree, never had such an opportunity in the past, but now, Hongqing himself is right in front of him, and the generals don't want to miss this good opportunity to get close, no, Quiningan's voice just now At the end of the day, a group of generals couldn't wait to act, one after another according to their ranks, they came out to meet Li.

"Okay, I am very happy to be able to get to know you gentlemen today, come, pass on the order of this king, every cow will reward two cows, thirty pigs and thirty sheep each, and a hundred altars of wine. If you don't get drunk today, you won't return! "

There are quite a few generals in the army, and it took a long time to see the salute, but Hong Qing didn't show any signs of impatience. The promise immediately aroused all the generals to burst into applause.

"My lord is so rewarding, I will be very grateful, please come to the camp, I will try my best to curry favor with you."

Although the reward is not cash, but this kind of reward for the three armies will cost over 4000 taels of silver. Feeling very honored, he waved his hand with a smile on his face, and welcomed Hong Qing and his party into the camp...

There are not many people in the barracks, but there are too many people, especially the Huotou army. Even though the cattle and sheep and other livestock sent by Hongqing are not old or young, but all the people are busy working together, and the big meal is ready in just over an hour. After the rectification, there are no special dishes, just big bowls of drinking and eating meat, and this is precisely the favorite activity of the killers. No, there are all kinds of copper basins lined up in the open air on the martial arts field It was filled with large pieces of meat, fried, fried, steamed, and barbecued for takeout, everything you expect to find, a jar of fine wine filled the floor, and the soldiers of the banner camp and the guards of the royal palace brought by Hong Qing sat mixed together, As soon as the banquet started, the sound of shouting, punching, and laughter immediately became one, and the entire Qiying martial arts arena was full of noise.

"Stop here!"

Men in the army are all fond of wine, whether they are soldiers of the banner battalion or the guards of the palace, they are all young people. When they drink, they are very refreshing. Of course there are many, there are also quite a few drowsy full army camps wandering around, no, a dozen drunk palace guards are talking nonsense at this moment, while wandering to the back camp where the warehouse is located, just Before the guards approached the storeroom, more than [-] fully armed bannermen rushed out from the dark with their swords and guns, blocking the way of the palace guards.

"Hey, boys, you are so brave and courageous. You dare to block your way. Get off, get off, or else you will be kicked to death, you bastard..."

The guards of the palace have always been arrogant masters, and now that they have drunk too much wine, their arrogance is unavoidably even more arrogant, and they are quite upset when they are suddenly blocked by someone. A bearded general ignored the power of the soldiers of the banner battalion, who stumbled forward a few steps, and cursed arrogantly.

"In a place where armaments are important, there is no one to rule in hand. Anyone who dares to trespass without permission will be killed without mercy. If you don't back down, don't blame the men for being ruthless!"

When the bearded general scolded him like this, one of the bannermen, an armored general dressed in Niulu's costume, stood up and yelled out with a livid face, without showing any shame to the guards of the palace.

"Okay, so brave, if you wait for An, if you dare to be rude, Grandpa, Grandpa will never stop with you, it will never end, just wait, wait, Grandpa, Grandpa will call someone to go..."

Seeing that the other party was so disrespectful, the bearded boss was obviously angry, but when he saw the other party's sword-ridden appearance, he didn't dare to rush forward with his bare hands, so he just threw down a scene in frustration, Leading a group of drunks under his command, he turned around and staggered along the way he came from. After a while, he turned out of the back camp.

"Hey, a bunch of bastards are running wild in front of our men, grandma is a bear, what the hell!"

That Niu Lu was obviously pissed off by the bearded man's arrogance, but he didn't dare to take it seriously, so he could only curse at the backs of the palace guards in annoyance. a voice.

"Brother, such a guy has come from a wrong place, so he has to report to the general immediately?"

That Niu Lu didn't stop cursing, but he saw a low-ranking officer in a wing captain's uniform approaching him, asking for instructions in a low voice.

"No need, it's important to keep the warehouse well, as long as these bastards don't come to make trouble, cheer up the master. If anyone dares to let irrelevant people approach the warehouse, don't blame the master for being merciless!"

Hearing what Yichang said, Niu Lu was unavoidably worried, but in the end, he still didn't agree with Yichang's proposal, and just gave orders with a stern voice.

"twitter!"

Seeing this, the subordinates didn't dare to be negligent. After Qiqi agreed, they each hid back to the hiding place...
