Wanli 1592

Chapter 297

No matter what Ma Gui's move means, whether he chooses to stand in line, chooses to support himself instead of supporting the traditional military powerhouse Li, this is a symbol of friendship, a symbol of trust, and puts those around him who can fight Handing over Xiao Ruxun's children to Xiao Ruxun means that Ma Gui's trust in Xiao Ruxun is no longer the usual level of trust, but a deeper level of trust in entrusting his family members.

Then, as a reciprocation and a return of goodwill, Xiao Ruxun immediately said that he would hand over 25 pistols and 25 gunners from the most elite Ningxia Firearms Battalion under his command to Ma Gui. Firearms were still very useful during the Great Wall.

Ma Gui was overjoyed, and immediately agreed without refusing.

Since then, Xiao Ruxun can be sure that he and Ma Gui have formed an offensive and defensive alliance, and even to a certain extent, this is an offensive and defensive alliance led by him, not Ma Gui. Ma Gui will cooperate with himself, what he says and needs to do.

This kind of trust moved Xiao Ruxun very much.

The meat was divided among his father, brothers and the little tigers of the Ma family. Xiao Ruxun cut up some of the remaining good meat and put it on a large plate. He called a soldier and asked him to bring it to Yang Caiyun and the others. to eat.

Now that outsiders are here, the female relatives have to stay away, but Xiao Ruxun will not mistreat his beloved wife, so he cut up some of the most tender and delicious meat and sent it to Yang Caiyun, so that she can eat better , the chicken soup over there was almost cooked, and Xiao Ruxun ordered the maid to bring the soup to his wife and several sister-in-laws.

These women also have a small appetite, so a group of men are responsible for the rest. Daddy Xiao and Magui brought a lot of game. After eating the first round of meat, they felt very delicious, and they couldn't wait to eat it again. In the second round, they needed to deal with the wild game by themselves.

The meat of these original wild game is very firm and tender. It does not need too much seasoning to assist, but it can also taste extremely delicious. Eat a large piece of barbecue and a large bowl of rice, and drink broth. It feels full of rough taste, which is the favorite of soldiers fighting on the battlefield, so a large group of men eat with their rice bowls, not to mention how terrible it is to eat.

Cut into large slices of roast beef, roast mutton and roast rabbit meat, then white rice from Jiangnan, and fragrant chicken soup. This combination is perfect for soldiers. After taking the meat, he immediately gave Xiao Ruxun a thumbs up, and then kept bragging to Xiao Wenkui.

"Old man, don't think Ji Xin is good at fighting. She is really particular about food. They usually drink porridge when marching, and eat dry rice to save energy after the war. At most, they can give some salted vegetables to replenish their energy. But Ji Xin doesn't do it. Collect meat and game ginseng and cook them together in the rice for the soldiers, with enough salt. Later, when we captured Kaesong, Ji Xin made a big pancake for the whole army as a pre-war meal.

That big pancake is delicious!Crispy, very fragrant, not hard at all, we were in winter at that time, it was freezing to death, and the ordinary steamed buns and flatbreads were as frozen as stones, Ji Xin, the flatbreads we made, even if It's cold, but it's still soft, fragrant, and salty. A big pancake and a bag of water can fill everyone up, and continue to fight with full strength. Ji Xin is really particular about it!If you fight with Ji Xin, you will never worry about eating badly, hahahahahaha! "

Hearing Ma Gui's flattering words, Xiao Wenkui felt a burst of joy in his heart, feeling that his son had really grown up, had his own prestige in the army, had his own followers and convinced people, and became more and more famous as a general. The more victories there are, the more they will be recognized by the army. Even under the current system of Daming, which does not know soldiers and generals, it will still make soldiers have a natural sense of trust in the general.

It has to be said that this sense of trust is very necessary on the battlefield. When a new general goes to battle for the first time, the troops he leads will doubt him because he is not familiar with him. This kind of reservation and doubt will directly affect the general's command However, a veteran is different. A veteran on the battlefield will gain a certain degree of trust from everyone as soon as he comes up, and the soldiers will resolutely carry out the general's orders.

In the same way, even if a well-known general leads a unit that has never been led before, as long as the unit has heard of the general's reputation and understands his achievements, they will have a sense of trust in him and trust him. Orders will not be questioned, and will not be discounted.

Just like in the Song Dynasty, during the Chanyuan War, the elite army left by Zhao Kuangyin was almost defeated by Zhao Guangyi. Under the leadership of Legacy Li Jilong, the Song Imperial Army, which was not as good as before, still recovered a certain amount of morale, and had the courage to fight the Liao Army. They trusted Li Jilong, and finally defeated the Liao Army's vanguard attack. In addition, Liao's coach died unexpectedly. The alliance of Chanyuan was finally concluded.

This is the power of a famous general. It is said that a thousand troops are easy to get but a general is hard to find. The power of a famous general is enough to equal an army.

Fame, command ability, majesty, these things that a famous general possesses are enough to make an old fried dough stick army frightened and dare not make mistakes, and the appearance of a famous general is also a part of the country's strategic deterrence. One of the country's hard power makes the enemy countries that want to invade fearful. For example, before the Song Dynasty destroyed the Southern Tang Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin deliberately killed Lin Renzhao.

With Xiao Ruxun around, the enemies who have been defeated by him will be afraid and dare not make mistakes. Since Xiao Ruxun wiped out the three thousand cavalry in the first battle, even if he was transferred to North Korea, the northwestern border is still in the situation where the city wall in Ningxia has not yet been repaired. Now, the tribes in the northwest did not dare to invade at all, and there was no sign of Mongolian cavalry in the ten-mile radius around the Jingguan, and such a deterrent force had not been seen for a long time.

Xiao Wenkui was very happy to see his son galloping away towards the famous general of the Ming Dynasty.

The family's picnic ended soon, and before the afterglow of the setting sun, the family returned to the city and home.

Back at the door of the house, an old servant hurriedly greeted him, and said to Xiao Wenkui, "Master, Yang Gong has arrived, and he is drinking tea in the living room right now!"

Xiao Wenkui clapped his hands.

"Ji Xin! Your father-in-law is here! Hurry up and bring Caiyun, and follow me to meet your father-in-law!"

Xiao Ruxun was startled, turned around and held the hand of the surprised Yang Caiyun, and walked quickly into the mansion.
