East Factory Governor

Chapter 395
Qin Shuhuai and Hong Chengchou talked very happily, and they hit it off right away.

Hong Chengchou admired Qin Shuhuai's great achievements in Jizhen, and Qin Shuhuai had long regarded Hong Chengchou as an important weight in his future to calm the world, so he not only treated him with courtesy, but also opened his heart and talked about everything.

Hong Chengchou felt that he had really met his confidant.Because this Qin Shaobao, no matter the views on the three sides, the establishment of slaves, or even the court situation, are almost astonishingly consistent with himself.

Hong Chengchou has great talent and a high degree of self-confidence.He felt that looking at the whole world, there was no other person who could be as compatible with Qin Shaobao as he was.

As the so-called hero sees the same.

He even thought of Cao Cao's famous saying, "to be a hero today, only the emperor and Cao Er!"
If Qin Shuhuai can really calm down the three sides and bring down Donglin, then he will surely rise to the top of the sky, and together with this "monster of Ming Dynasty" will be the great cause of the Holy Lord to bring peace to the world!Think about how passionate, how surging, how magnificent it is!
I, Hong Chengchou, will not be a short-lived passer-by in the Ming Dynasty, I will eventually leave my name in history!If Qin Shuhuai is a worthy general of the Ming Dynasty, I must be a worthy prime minister of the Ming Dynasty!ZTE hegemony, who else can I have?

Hong Chengchou in history was just such a person with high self-confidence and full of ambitions for the world, which can be reflected from his many memorials, writings and remarks recorded by historians.And now, Qin Shuhuai's appearance made his self-confidence even more bursting.

The two chatted for lunch first, and after lunch, Hong Chengchou took Qin Shuhuai to the barracks to observe the drills of the sergeants with great interest, and proudly pointed out that several of the formations were researched by himself.

After visiting for a while, the two went to the living room to chat again until dinner.

In this way, Qin Shuhuai stayed in Hancheng that night.On the next morning, Hong Chengchou personally sent Qin Shuhuai to the gate of the city, and the two bid farewell.

Before going back, Qin Shuhuai thought of something, and said to Hong Chengchou, "By the way, Mr. Hong, I don't think it will be long before Wang Baochang's people may come to you soon, and then you will have to deal with it."

Because they were afraid of giving others a handle, the two still commensurate with their official positions in public.Otherwise, they will inevitably be ginseng and form cliques for personal gain in the future. This is determined by the unique political environment of Ming Dynasty.

Hong Chengchou smiled meaningfully, and said, "Qin Shaobao, the lower officials have their own ideas."

Qin Shuhuai felt relieved, and cupped his hands at Hong Chengchou, "Lord Hong, take your leave."

"Shaobao, go slowly, don't send it off!"

Qin Shuhuai and Lai San'er left Hong Chengchou on their way back.

Lai San'er said, "Master, that Hong Chengchou is so polite. Last night after I had dinner, he even sent his two sons over to drink with me, saying that he was afraid that I would be bored. Hey, Mr. Futai This is the first time my son has come to curry favor with me."

Qin Shuhuai smiled and said, "Isn't it good to drink with you?"

Lai San'er said, "Hey, it's just that the enthusiasm is too great, and I can't stand it. I feel that this Hong Futai is too flattering. Is there any real ability in such a sense? I doubt it."

Qin Shuhuai said, "You know what! This is called reciprocating. He is very smart. I am polite to him, and he will return with extraordinary enthusiasm. This is to tell me that he dare not really see me with my younger brother." There is a lot of knowledge here, learn it slowly!"

Lai San'er touched the mountain on the back of his head, and said, "So that's the case. This way is too profound, and I can't learn it. I'll follow you to fight steadily."

Just as he was talking, he saw dust flying in front of him and the sound of horseshoes rumbling.

Lai San'er said in surprise, "No, I have met a large group of bandits."

Qin Shuhuai said, "I'm afraid, there's such a big dust, it's likely to be bandit cavalry marching in a hurry. If they stop to grab us when they see only two of us, then they don't need to march at all."

"I'm not afraid!" Lai San'er hastily defended.

The two continued to ride their horses, walking leisurely forward.

Sure enough, there was a large group of cavalry ahead.After a rough look after approaching, it is estimated that there are at least two thousand.

But soon they discovered that these cavalry were all wearing the uniforms of the official army.

Qin Shuhuai immediately understood that it must be Wang Baochang's people, and they were going to Hancheng.

When the cavalry arrived in front of Qin Shuhuai and the others, they stopped suddenly.

Qin Shuhuai also stopped.

At this time, a burly man in fish scale armor rode a war horse, and under the escort of several experts, he walked slowly to Qin Shuhuai.

He looked at Qin Shuhuai carefully for a while, and then said, "Your Excellency is Qin Shaobao?"

Qin Shuhuai said to the man, "Exactly, may I ask your Excellency?"

The man gave a dry laugh, "The last general in Shanxi, Wang Baochang, has seen the Shaobao and the imperial envoy."

Qin Shuhuai chuckled, thinking that Wang Baochang had gone to Hancheng himself, no wonder there was such a big battle.

Not without sarcasm, he said, "It turned out to be Zongbing Wang! Zongbing Wang is in such a big battle, but he is going to suppress bandits?"

Wang Baochang said unhurriedly, "Shaobao is right. I heard that Zhang Xianzhong in the south has made a change, so General Mo specially brought people here from Taiyuan City, and planned to take charge of Hancheng himself. Shaobao's Wentao and Wulu shocked the world, I don't know Is there any good strategy to suppress the bandits, and give advice to the last general?"

Wang Baochang was triumphant, he felt that Yang Du's calculation was indeed correct, this Qin Shuhuai really came to Hancheng.But now I personally go to Hancheng to sit in town and see what kind of waves he can make?So the words are quite provocative.

Qin Shuhuai chuckled, and said, "General Wang is a great talent, what can Ben Shaobao teach me, I can only wish you a smooth journey."

Wang Baochang laughed, and continued to say in a mocking tone, "Then I would like to thank Qin Shaobao for his auspicious words. By the way, why didn't Shaobao do it when he passed by Taiyuan last time? I heard that he was blocked by Wang Hannian in the city. The door? Hehe, this old and mere sixth-rank official dared to stop your imperial envoy, he really didn’t know what to do, I will definitely give you a few lashes when I get back.”

This is naturally ironic that Qin Shuhuai is not even as good as a sixth-rank official.

Qin Shuhuai said nonchalantly, "It's okay, Taiyuan City, Ben Shaobao will enter one day. I hope you can come and go freely on the three sides, Wang Zongbing, and don't make the same mistakes as Ben Shaobao."

Wang Baochang couldn't help laughing, "Haha, the imperial envoy is thinking too much! The final general can't bear to let the brothers drive in the ice and snow at night. Of course, it's a different matter if it's for the suppression of bandits, but they are just driven away for no reason. It is impossible."

Qin Shuhuai smiled and said, "In this way, it is a blessing for the soldiers to be with Wang Zongbing. Wang Zongbing, farewell."

"Farewell!"

Both sides passed each other with playful smiles on their faces.

It was nearly noon, and Wang Baochang rushed to Hancheng with three thousand fine riders.
