The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 29
Everything is going well, Ningyuan City is relatively safe here, and it has been a long time since Jiannu came to harass.

The Ming army was deploying its defenses intensively, and there was an endless stream of convoys and horse teams transporting supplies from Shanhaiguan to Juehua Island.

Huang Mingli is a serious Qipin General Banner, and it is normal for him to transport things with more than [-] people. After showing his waist badge to verify his identity, no one came to question him.

When Huang Sheng was wearing a civil official uniform and leading more than [-] people into the city, no one stopped him to see his badge or tell him, so he walked into the city swaggeringly.

After everyone entered the house, Huang Sheng felt safe. He must be on guard against others. Huang Sheng knew what the heads of two Jiannuba Yala, seventeen vests, and infantry meant.

If a military officer from a hundred households of the Ming Dynasty gets these heads, the money is still second. He will be promoted to at least three or four ranks in a row to become a fourth-rank guard, and he can manage as many as one or two thousand soldiers, which means that he can spend 2 yuan a year. About [-] taels of silver to share with the adults.

History records that the discipline of the Ming army in the later period was corrupt, and it was not uncommon to kill good men and take meritorious service, and fought live battles with rogue bandits.

The so-called living battle means that the rogues give them money and the heads of the common people, and they let the rogues flee and continue to plunder, and then they follow behind to take advantage of it.

However, the generals of the Ming army won both military exploits and money, and it was the ordinary people who lived in peace. They had wolves in front of them and tigers in the back. In the end, they couldn’t survive and everyone became a mob.

Money touches people's hearts, on the front line, and in the wild, what is the death of dozens of people?There are many civil servants and military generals who lost their lives in Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, and almost no one cares about the death of an eighth-rank official here.

Now that he finally entered the city safely and returned home, which daring military officer would dare to blackmail him?
Gu San was overjoyed to see that everyone came back in full beard and brought back a lot of things. His body has basically recovered now, and he can walk freely without crutches, but he is a little limping.

Several women gathered around happily and asked this and that, the little girl Gu Ling'er also held her brother Gu Shanhe's hand and chattered non-stop, with big eyes secretly looking at Master Huang.

She has lived a happy life for more than a month and has obviously grown up a lot, and the servants can see the joy of the family members from the bottom of their hearts.

Li Dagang was a little emotional, and said with red eyes: "Mother, it feels so good to have a nest."

Han Guang scolded with a smile: "Hey, Dagang, if you can't speak, don't talk. What do you mean by having a nest? This is the official residence!"

Everyone laughed, Li Dagang was a little embarrassed, and changed his words: "I was stupid and said the wrong thing, it is our Huangfu."

Huang Sheng laughed and said: "What kind of mansion is not a mansion, the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as your own doghouse! Don't argue about what to do, Qiaozhen, please prepare hot water quickly, I want to take a shower and tidy up, and go to see Mrs. Mao. "

The past ten days of living in the wild has made Huang Sheng suffer so much for his small body. Now he most wants to soak in the bathtub, but unfortunately there is no one in the Ming Dynasty, so he has to use a big wooden barrel to make up for it.

Qiaozhen and Laifeng said: "Master, Brother Dongshan has already ordered your servants, you can take a bath now."

It turned out that Huang Dongshan was careful. On the way, he found that the adult was constantly scratching his itch. Knowing that this clean-loving adult endured for so many days without taking a good bath, he must have died of discomfort.

As soon as he got home, he asked the women to prepare a lot of hot water, not only for the adults to take a bath, but also for everyone, and he also asked them to hurry up and get the adults' official clothes ready for ironing.

Soon, a refreshed Huang Sheng appeared in the back hall of Mao Yuanyi's official office. Now that Huang Sheng was looking for him, he didn't need to notify him, and the servant took Huang Sheng into the backyard directly.

Mao Yuanyi was very happy to see that Huang Sheng came back safe and sound, and asked after a few pleasantries, "Did you gain something from this trip?"

The old god Huang Sheng said: "How can I get any gains from the lower officials? It's the adults who made a small contribution and killed one Jiannu Bayala and three vests."

"Ah?" Mao Yuanyi was shocked and said, "Little friend, did you really gain something? Is it the white armored soldiers who built slaves?"

Hehe, Huang Sheng took out four waist cards from his pocket, and handed them to Mao Yuanyi respectfully.

He took it and looked at it carefully, his beard trembled a little, and said: "It is absolutely true that it is Jiannu Ba Yala's waist card, little friend, have you really succeeded?"

Huang Shengdao: "The lower officials are in love with the adults. How can they deceive the adults? The heads, armors, and weapons are all available. The servants have brought them and waited outside."

Mao Yuanyi hurriedly asked someone to go to the back door to let Huang Dongshan Gouer and the others bring in the things. He was a little embarrassed and said, "Such a great achievement, why didn't my little friend report it to the supervisor himself, but gave it to the old man?"

Huang Sheng had no choice but to do it. As a 17-year-old scholar, he was supported by Mr. Sun Chengzong, the governor of Liaodong by chance, and completed the magnificent turn from scholar to scholar-bureaucrat in just half a year.

He had just been promoted two levels in a row, and now it would be inappropriate if he reported such a great achievement again. Mu Xiuyu Lin Feng would definitely destroy him, which would go against his plan of quietly seeking development.

If the imperial court finds that he is willing to take the initiative to fight Jiannu, he can set up a fortress in Liaodong and let himself stick to Jiannu and die. My poor family is not enough to build slaves, so I am determined not to take up real positions. It's best to have a false title, and stay free.

Besides, since I am too young, it is impossible for the imperial court to give me an official promotion every time.It's better to use military exploits as favors. Both Mao Yuanyi and Sun Yuanhua have high-ranking officials in the court, and they are someone in the court who is easy to be an official.

I am a loner, and I must not climb too high without connections. Sun Yuanhua and the others have been promoted, and they will be my best friends in the future, and they will become my own network. Of course, they will also get a lot of benefits. Why not do it?
Huang Sheng said truthfully: "The subordinate officials are using scheming and tricks to sneak attack. They must not fight openly, let alone defend a city. Only by using guerrilla warfare to sneak attack the enemy can the strengths of the subordinate officials be brought into play."

Mao Yuanyi had a great feeling and said: "Soldiers are cunning, that's the case! Guerrilla, sports? Hmm! Good words! Keep wandering, looking for opportunities while running, and go with one blow! Good, good, good!"

The IQ value of the scientist Jiaxue was really good, and he immediately understood the beauty of Huang Sheng's tactics.

He was a little excited. Huang Sheng easily won the victory with negligible casualties several times and made small gains.In my heart, I have completely believed in Huang Sheng's guerrilla warfare ability.

Huang Sheng's little servants are indeed too few, of course they must be taken good care of, and they must not be consumed by Jiannu.

He solemnly stated: "Little friend, don't worry, I will explain to the supervisor, except for the supervisor, no one will be able to transfer the little friend and his servants in the future."

Huang Shengdao: "My lord, this time the battle is very fierce. The servants of the lower officials have lost a lot, and the gunpowder and the Lumi gun armor are all unsustainable."

Mao Yuanyi said generously: "It's a trivial matter, it's okay! The official will notify Shanhaiguan, Ningyuan, and Juehua Island, and you can go there directly to get the necessary supplies in the future."

As he spoke, he took out a sign and handed it to Huang Shengdao: "With this waist card, no one will dare to make things difficult for you. If necessary, you only need to sign on the delivery document."

This is Lord Mao Yuanyi's trust and affirmation for Huang Sheng. Of course, Huang Sheng can't act recklessly, let alone be greedy. He can only enlarge some margin to receive supplies as much as he needs.

There will be your own signature on the delivery list, and it is impossible for Lord Mao Yuanyi to ignore it. If you ask too much, you will soon lose the trust of this adult.

This means that when you come to ask for the bill, if someone gives you a credit card with no limit, can you put money in your pocket without restraint?
Huang Shengdao: "The battle between the lower official and the Jiannu is extremely dangerous, and a brave warrior is needed to succeed, but a brave warrior who is good at fighting is hard to come by!"

Mao Yuanyi said: "It's true, only calm, brave and tenacious fighters can take on this important task.

How about this, the officer will give the little friend some badges, if the little friend takes a fancy to any soldier, as long as the soldier dares to go with the little friend, the little friend can take it away directly, and if there is any lawsuit, the officer will handle it.

The old man wants to see, which martial artist dares not to give face to this official. "

Lord Mao Yuanyi made it clear that the soldier he was looking for was neither the military officer nor the military officer's servant.He wrote vigorously on a piece of blank official paper, to the effect that he praised General Huang Sheng for selecting soldiers who dared to fight and had other arrangements.

After writing, use the seal letter and hand it to Huang Sheng.This matter is very simple, the soldiers belong to the imperial court, Huang Sheng is also an official of the imperial court, and the servants under his command are also to fight against Jiannu.

Mao Yuanyi thought that a good soldier might not be able to play a role at all under the military officers of Liaodong, but might be able to shine under the command of Huang Sheng, who is good at fighting. As long as he can afford it, no matter how much he wants.

Huang Sheng is not stupid, and it is impossible for him to poach the servants of the chief general. These servants are well paid and less dangerous. Why give up such a life and follow him through life and death?

Now that I have Lord Mao's paperwork and waist badge, I can openly regard myself as myself and am willing to stay with my soldiers.

It's a pity that it costs too much money to raise soldiers, and I let them eat well and dress well. With my meager savings now, it's hard to sustain, and I can't support many servants.

At this time, Huang Dongshan and the others who had walked around the back door came, and put Jiannu's head and armor on the ground.

Looking at the severely damaged armor, Mao Yuanyi took a deep breath.From these captured armors, one can imagine how thrilling this battle should be.

He came to Jiannuba Yala's shiny armor and took a closer look, and said in admiration, "How did my little friend do it? I would like to hear the details."

Huang Sheng had achieved his goal, and he was very happy, so he reported to Mao Yuanyi his experience of using gunpowder to blow up Jiannu this time.

Master Mao was most interested in annihilating the enemy with firearms. He asked Huang Sheng to tell the story in detail.

He didn't even care that Huang Sheng was entrusted by Ma Shilong to find an opportunity to cut off Jiannu's head. This is also an official rule. As long as there is no conflict with his own interests, everyone will go their own way for mutual convenience.

Huang Shengduo was shrewd and asked Ma Shihu to bring Jiannu's head back to Shanhaiguan. The buyer would definitely reward the court, and Mao Yuanyi was on the front line, so he would definitely be aware of it.People found out indirectly that it would make a world of difference to take the initiative to tell themselves.

Huang Sheng took the initiative to tell him in detail how Ma Shihu came to find him.

Sure enough, Mao Yuanyi was very happy after hearing this, thinking that Huang Sheng regarded him as a confidant, and praised him greatly.He was even more happy to hear that Huang Sheng also prepared the head of Jiannu for his friend Sun Yuanhua. He took Huang Sheng's hand and went to find Sun Yuanhua, asking him to buy him a drink.

Of course Huang Sheng obediently obeyed, and the two happily came to find the scientist.As soon as they met Mao Yuanyi, they congratulated him, which confused Sun Yuanhua.He was really happy to see Huang Sheng, and he didn't ask Huang Sheng if he had gained anything, so he invited the two of them to drink.
