I really don't want to be emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 40
Chapter 039

Cheng Jialong clamored to learn Sanda, Cheng Shijie spent more than 3000 yuan to enroll him in a summer class, and practiced for two semesters, but he got a lot of face with Wang Baquan.

Although it is not harmful, it is extremely insulting.

"Dad, I... I... really didn't want to hit him, he scolded me, I couldn't help it... so I hit him!"

"If you can't bear it, you don't need to bear it anymore!"

"Don't say hello to your face. It's the softest place and the most likely to see injuries. There are so many places that can be hit on the stomach, torso, thighs, and calves. Why hit the nose? Once the bridge of the nose is broken, it is a minor injury! If there are eyes, the problem will be more serious if the place is damaged."

Cheng Jialong thought he would be beaten up in a fight, but Cheng Shijie's performance was surprising.

The waste collection station has become a construction site, with mixers, gravel, cement, and workers already on site. Cheng Shijie thought, since the waste collection station is full of old, weak, sick and disabled, safety issues must be taken seriously.

It's too far away from the city, even if you call the police, the police won't be able to come for a while.

Cheng Shijie said: "Let's raise two dogs at the waste collection station!"

Xiang Hui nodded and said, "Alright!"

"How about I go buy two?"

"Too much money to burn?"

Xiang Hui picked up her mobile phone and started making calls: "Mom, I'm Hui Hui, who in our village still has dogs? Yes, yes, yes, I'm going to raise two dogs. There are a lot of things at the waste collection station. It's valuable, in case someone steals it...Okay, okay, okay!"

In just 2 minutes, Xiang Hui hung up the phone.

She put away her phone and said, "I've already asked you. How many dogs do we have in our village? There are fine dogs, pastoral dogs, and golden retrievers. What kind of dogs do we want?"

"A golden retriever costs hundreds!"

"Folks in the village, it's so rude to mention money!"

"Then we need a golden retriever, a pastoral dog, and a fine dog. Let's lock it up during the day and release it at night, right in this yard!"

Cheng Jialong sat in the corner to eat, took out his homework book and started to do homework after eating.

Seeing that Cheng Jialong was more obedient, Xiang Hui added a plate of fruit to Cheng Jialong.

Cheng Shijie didn't go home with Xiang Hui, but went back early on the pretext that something happened at work.

Before leaving, Xiang Hui looked at Cheng Shijie and said, "Pay attention to your body, you've lost too much weight these days!"

"I'm losing weight!"

"Health is the most important thing!"

"Okay, I got it!"

Cheng Shijie brought a large bag of seeds, weighing more than 50 kilograms. Even if these seeds were placed in the late Ming Dynasty, it is not the season for planting these seeds. However, due to his limited transportation capacity, Cheng Shijie is unwilling to come back empty-handed.

When Cheng Shijie appeared at the end of Ming Dynasty, Cheng Shi hurried over and said, "Father, you are back!"

"What happened?"

"The governor's yamen is here, let you go to Dengzhou City!"

Cheng Shijie frowned, and his heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that the reselling of military exploits has happened?
Cheng Shijie washed his face, took Lao Zhou's carriage, took Cheng Shi, Cheng Hu and a group of soldiers to Dengzhou City.

Just as Cheng Shijie's carriage was driving on the official road, the same carriage passed by his carriage.Yang Yunniang came from Dengzhou City with Xiao Jiaxin, Cheng Anjing and Cheng Anning.

Because Xiao Jiaxin didn't sleep well at night, and she was very energetic at night, Yang Yunniang was tortured to the point of exhaustion, and she was sleeping in the carriage.

Cheng Shijie thought about what Sun Yuanhua wanted to do with him.

In fact, when Jin Yousheng reported to Denglai Governor's Yamen the news of the complete annihilation of Qin Wu's troops, Sun Yuanhua realized that it was impossible for Jin Yousheng and the useless Dengzhou Guard to wipe out Qin Wu. With this ability, last year would not have suffered such a miserable defeat.

Sun Yuanhua subconsciously said: "It's impossible. It's not that I don't know what the state of the Dengzhou Guard is like. In last year's battle, almost all the soldiers that the Dengzhou Guard could fight were killed. It's just that few troops. It’s not bad to be eaten up by bandits, but also wiped out..."

Staff member Xu Dacheng smiled wryly: "Who says it is not, but the captives have been sent to Dengzhou City, there are more than 3000 people, and there are more than 500 heads, including the bandit Qin Wu!"

"There is a problem, go check it!"

"Yes!"

With Xu Dacheng's in-depth investigation, he used the staff buried beside Jin Yousheng, and Xu Dacheng quickly figured out the ins and outs.

Only then did Xu Dacheng report to Sun Yuanhua: "Master Futai, the matter has been investigated clearly. This battle is indeed not fought by those gangsters, but by Cheng Shijie, a thousand households of Dengzhou Wei Zuoqian!"

"Cheng Shijie?"

"That's right!"

Xu Dacheng hurriedly said: "A while ago, I spent 6000 taels of silver to buy Cheng Shijie from Dengzhou Weizuoqianhu!"

Cheng Shijie spent 8000 taels of silver to buy an official. In fact, only 6000 taels entered the hands of Sun Yuanhua, the governor's yamen.

Sun Yuanhua nodded and said, "It's him? Ben Xian has a little impression."

"After Cheng Shijie took office, he used his family wealth to buy grain in Dengzhou City, and then transferred [-] young men from Dengzhou Weizuoqianhu Station to train intensively. When Qin Wu led more than [-] bandits to attack Zuoqianhu City At that time, Zuoqianhu City was almost captured. That night, Cheng Shijie personally led [-] elite troops to attack the camp of Qin Wusuo. Chased and killed Qin Wu for more than two hundred miles, and captured Qin Wu in Linglong Mountain, all the leaders from Qin Wu down, dead or dead, none of them slipped through the net!"

"You mean that Cheng Shijie has only trained this army for more than a month!"

"There is absolutely no two months, Cheng Shijie has only been in office for more than a month!"

At this time, Sun Yuanhua became very interested in Cheng Shijie, a thousand households.There was a split within the Dongjiang Army. Generals like Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi, Kong Youde, Li Jiuzheng, etc., why did he recruit them?

It is because Sun Yuanhua actually has great political ambitions. He hopes that after Denglai's new army is trained, he can recover Lushun and southern Liaoning in one fell swoop. With this huge achievement, not only his teacher Xu Guangqi can successfully enter the cabinet, but Sun Yuanhua I can also go one step further from governor and become governor of Ji Liao or Xuan Da.

Outside him, teacher Xu Guangqi is inside, and the two teachers and students can join forces, like Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang, to seize power and carry out reforms on Daming.

In the Chongzhen Dynasty, all the ministers with some knowledge had already seen the crisis within the Ming Dynasty.

The civil and military officials of the Chongzhen Dynasty were considered to be selfish and selfish in later generations.In fact, this is not all the case, just like Bi Ziyan, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, in that kind of embarrassing situation, tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, reluctantly insisting on keeping this dilapidated ship unsinkable.

After Liang Tingdong, Minister of the Ministry of War, took office, he soon asked for "five things about the disadvantages", called farming, salt method, money method, tea horse, and millet accumulation.He also explained the reasons for the bandits in Shaanxi. Please severely punish the generals and officials for corruption so as to relieve the anger of the army and the people and plug the source of the rebellion.The emperor praised him.

It is a pity that these reforms only stayed at the political level in the end, and Liang Tingdong was impeached.Sun Yuanhua's own political philosophy is to continue the strategy of Yuan Keli, the governor of Denglai, with the four states in southern Liaoning as the front and Denglai as the rear, and cooperate with the Dongjiang Army and the Denglai New Army to fight a decisive battle with Jiannu in southern Liaoning.

The Ming army replenished with the navy, which can reduce consumption, and use the method of consumption to consume Jiannu to death.

It's just a pity that Sun Yuanhua's strategic layout was not implemented in time, and a Wuqiao mutiny destroyed all his hard work.

At this time, Sun Yuanhua was looking for generals who could fight all over the world, and Cheng Shijie appeared at this time. He spent more than a month training more than [-] young and strong men, and then wiped out more than [-] thugs in one battle.

This military training ability is very outstanding.

When Cheng Shijie returned to Dengzhou City in the carriage, he was directly greeted by the pro-army of the governor's yamen.

Cheng Shijie followed the Fubiao pro-army directly to the governor's yamen, and the Fubiao pro-military junior came to the door and said directly: "This is Mr. Cheng Shijie, Cheng Shijie from the left thousand households of Wei Zuo in Dengzhou, Mr. Futai summoned you!"

The little school just said this, and no one came to check, so Cheng Shijie followed the school to the house, led to a warm pavilion in the atrium, left Cheng Shijie and walked straight away.

Sun Yuanhua did not summon Cheng Shijie immediately, after all, as the governor of a province, Sun Yuanhua was busy with official duties.

Cheng Shijie was also prepared, so he waited patiently, but the waiting period was very boring, so he stood up and observed in the warm pavilion.

On the soft couch in the Nuan Pavilion, there is a small table with a copy of "Seven Books of Martial Arts", which is a series of military books issued by the Northern Song Dynasty as an official book, and is the first military textbook in ancient China.It is a compilation of seven famous military books: "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Wu Zi's Art of War", "Six Secret Teachings", "Sima Law", "Three Strategies", "Wei Liaozi", and "Li Weigong Questions and Answers".Since the Song Dynasty, it has been regarded as a must-read military book for martial arts.

Cheng Shijie flipped through it casually. This kind of book is obscure and difficult to understand. He is a man of engineering, and he knows most of the words.

After all, Cheng Shijie has been graduating for too long, and he gave back to the teacher what he said in school.

This waited for a long time, until it was time to light the lamp, Sun Yuanhua walked in with a tired face, but at this time, Cheng Shijie had already fallen asleep sitting on the soft couch.

"Cough cough..."

Sun Yuanhua coughed, and Cheng Shijie was too deep in sleep to wake up.

Xu Dacheng frowned slightly, and was about to step forward to wake up Cheng Shijie, but Sun Yuanhua stopped Xu Dacheng.

"Come on, let's eat!"

The servants carried four dishes, which was not considered extravagant. There were fish and meat, vegetables and shrimp, and a combination of meat and vegetables.

Sun Yuanhua was eating vegetables and drinking millet porridge, and Cheng Shijie was awakened by the smell.

Cheng Shijie knew that he had lost his composure, and hurriedly confessed: "Master Futai, I'm an official..."

Sun Yuanhua pointed to the food and said, "Come, let's eat together!"

Cheng Shijie was also polite, and the woman who was waiting on the side helped to serve a bowl of millet porridge and started to eat.

While eating, Sun Yuanhua asked, "Cheng Shijie, do you know why I am calling you here?"

Cheng Shijie almost didn't have to think, he said: "The lower officials have the guts to speculate that Mr. Futai has the great ambition to clear up the administration of officials and clean up the military..."

"Um……"

Sun Yuanhua hummed lightly noncommittal, motioning Cheng Shijie to continue.

"In the matter of official administration, the lower officials have neither fame nor talent, so it is difficult to squeeze into the ranks of the Qing Dynasty. I am afraid that they will not be able to help the adults much!"

Cheng Shijie continued: "To tell you the truth, I also complain that the local military equipment is slack and the bandits are so arrogant. I wish I could raise a gun and let the horses roam around Kou Shuzhi. I don't dare to hope that I will be able to manage the military equipment and supervise the military affairs in my life; when I first arrived While in Dengzhou, Shijie looked at the situation in Dengzhou and had some delusions!"

"Oh!"

Cheng Shijie's voice slowly rose an octave: "Ninghai Prefecture is not only an outpost of Shandong's coastal defense, but also a barrier for the capital. Shijie is willing to lead an army to protect one side, so that the Jiangyang pirates don't want to disturb the place... also called the raging bear A garrison of more than ten thousand Dengzhou guards is watching, how three or five hundred elites will resist the bandits from outside the country!"

Sun Yuanhua said excitedly: "Come on, come on, come on, let's just talk about it on paper, tell me, how can we protect a place with a single army?"

PS: I asked for tickets every day, and Lao Cheng was unfortunately recruited. I insisted on code words. If I can't hold on someday, please forgive me.
