Chapter 579
In the left flower hall of the Yang Family Courtyard in the Yang Family Building, Zhang Cheng smiled and said to Yang Shijie, "I'm afraid of a ball."

He went on to say: "It's a mess now, and you haven't figured it out before you feel that you don't have a clue. After Chen Zhong and the others help you compile all the three parts of the left, middle, and right , you only need to practice strictly according to the drill code, and then manage it according to military regulations and laws.”

He looked at Yang Shijie and continued: "Cui Shijie will stay here in Mangshan for the past six months to help you form a team and practice, and then assign each department's garrison location and the order of mutual rescue."

It was only at this time that Yang Shijie stretched out his tense face, showing a hint of a smile, and said: "Okay, okay. I'm at ease now!

……

On the seventh day of March, in the afternoon, the spring was bright and the Yellow River was surprisingly smooth. After Zhang Cheng and Yang Liying landed at the southern ferry in Meng County, they rode their horses and drove along the official road to Lihe Township.

At this time, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, and the green willows on both sides of the wide official road have also sprouted new branches and buds. A little bit of spring green makes people feel full of vitality.

A team of cavalry escorted two large carts, marching from west to east on the dusty official road, and there were twenty female cavalry soldiers guarding the carriages in the middle, and they were also heroic.

After traveling for more than ten miles, I saw pedestrians and vendors on the official road give way to both sides, a cloud of smoke and dust was raised in front of them, and then the sound of hooves came rumbling.

More than a hundred elite knights rode their horses and galloped in the spring breeze. The red cloaks behind them raised a red cloud. Chen Zhong rode in the lead and ran directly to the front of the carriage. Goodbye ma'am!"

Zhang Cheng and Yang Liying were riding horses and riding side by side. He waved and said, "Get up. You are now a guerrilla general guarding one side alone, so there is no need to be so polite!"

Hearing the words, Chen Zhong stood up and stood solemnly, and said with a serious face: "Chen Zhong, he was born as a man of the commander, and he is also the ghost of the commander after death. In this life, he is willing to follow the commander wholeheartedly. If there is an afterlife, Chen Zhong will still follow the commander. Shuai's fate is to obey!"

Zhang Cheng nodded. He originally planned to keep Wei Zhice in Henan, but since this battle, although Wei Zhice has been loyal to him, he has been less aggressive and decisive at critical moments.

The most important thing is his loyalty to Zhang Cheng. After all, Wei Zhice was born as an intellectual in Ming Dynasty, and he still has some thoughts of loyalty to the emperor in his heart. Unlike Chen Zhong, who only has Zhang Cheng in his heart, he only cares about Zhang Cheng. Courtier emperor.

Of course, Zhang Cheng will not be on guard against Wei Zhice because of this, but, if there are more suitable people available, he will not let him lead the army alone for the time being, so as not to prevent him from becoming powerful in the future. , cannot be of one mind with oneself.

However, Zhang Cheng believes that as a scholar of the Ming Dynasty like Wei Zhice sees more and more various paralysis in the court and the local government, he will definitely attribute his heart to himself, not to mention that as time goes by, everyone is tied to Together, when it becomes a new community of interests, it is not possible to leave if you want to.

Now, he rode his horse and looked at Chen Zhonglang and said in a loud voice: "Chen Zhong, get on the horse and lead the way for me."

Chen Zhong also agreed loudly, got on his horse, and led a hundred elite riders to lead the way. Zhang Cheng and Yang Liying walked forward slowly side by side. Behind them were Chunni, Chunxue and twenty female soldiers.

Behind them are Yang Fu and Yang Xing leading [-] Yang Liying's personal soldiers to protect the two carriages, and behind them are Zhang Chengfang and Zhang Jintai leading the boy battalion to follow the guards.

At the end of the team were more than [-] tiger guards led by Lin Fangping. Su Huhu and Mo Zhigen's Mongolian cavalry were all incorporated into the tiger guard camp by Zhang Cheng and became his pro-military guards.

The horse team of more than five hundred rode forward in a mighty way. Although they did not raise their whips and galloped, they still raised clouds of smoke and dust. Pedestrians and merchants on the official road all avoided under the green willows on both sides.

Many people were still kneeling on the ground, with their heads lowered very low, not daring to look up at the slow-moving cavalry, as if they were afraid that the torrent of iron armor would engulf them and hurt them.

…………

The barracks of the Yuhe Camp are built by the Jishui River, and they occupy a huge area. Now only about one-third of the barracks have been built, but they can also accommodate more than a thousand people. The craftsmen are still busy and busy. Build the remaining barracks.

Immediately to the north of the barracks is a large school field, where military exercises and inspections can be carried out at ordinary times, and the south gate of the barracks is the "Yuhe Chaoguan Office", which is the official office of Chen Zhong's guerrilla generals.

However, at this time, the door plaque of the official office has not been hung here, but this matter has been agreed by Chen Xinjia, Minister of the Ministry of War, and the current emperor has also approved this matter, so it is expected that there will be no other changes.

Chen Zhong's Banknote Customs Office is the courtyard of Sanjin, and the front yard is the main office of the Banknote Customs Office. Many public houses, signing rooms, prison rooms, interrogation rooms, etc. are here.

The middle courtyard is the place where Chen Zhong handles military affairs, such as the town governor, counselor, military affairs, and supplies will all be set up in this middle courtyard to work. The backyard is the residence prepared for Chen Zhong, and the warehouse behind it is built now One granary, and two more granaries, a gunpowder depot, and other military warehouses will be built in the future.

Zhang Guangda greeted Zhang Cheng and Yang Liying in front of the Banknote Customs Office. After saluting, everyone entered the office. Chen Zhong led Zhang Cheng and others to briefly look at the front yard, and then came to the main hall of the middle courtyard.

And Yang Liying, under the guard of Chunni, Chunxue and other female soldiers, went straight to the room prepared for her and Zhang Cheng in the backyard to rest, while all the male soldiers went to rest in the front yard and the barracks next to them.

…………

Zhang Cheng sat firmly on the big chair at the top of the main hall of the middle courtyard. He kept playing with the armrests of the big chair, tapped on the big case in front of him, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, little faithful!" , I will return this chair to you after sitting on it for a few more days."

"Hahaha……"

There was a burst of laughter immediately in the hall, and Chen Zhong's face was blushing, red and transparent like a monkey's butt, and he said embarrassingly: "This chair belongs to the handsome man, it's good for us to sit here. From now on, we... just sit here all the time!"

Chen Zhong was sitting in the first position on the left, and Zhang Guangda was sitting in the first position on the right opposite him. At this moment, he laughed and said, "Okay. When the commander-in-chief leaves, You kid should offer up the big chair above, and worship every morning, noon, and night."

Chen Zhong felt even more embarrassed by his teasing, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Looking at Zhang Guangda, Chen Zhong, Wang Yuanjing, Lin Fangping, Zhang Chengfang, Zhang Jintai and other generals in the hall, Zhang Cheng was very pleased. He said, "Okay. Blind Zhang, stop teasing Chen Gueran. Let's talk business."
