Chapter 620
"This... is the imperial court going to recover Liaodong?" The old fisherman couldn't help muttering to himself.

After hearing this, his neighbor continued, "At least the Golden State must be recovered!"

However, let them down.The warships loaded with people docked at the pier one after another, driving everyone off the ship, and many even helped or lifted them off the ship. Although these soldiers of the new army were elite on land, but this time by boat, they were I vomited so badly that I probably would never forget it for the rest of my life.

The other ships, after a simple replenishment at Lushun Port, did not unload, and then left the port for the final destination of Phi Island.

When Lu Xiangsheng returned to Lushun by boat and was preparing for the next stage of the battle, Governor Hong Chengchou, who was far away on the grassland in Guihua City, the back hall of the Governor's Mansion, was entertaining Baotou governor Yang Sichang who had just arrived on the grassland and came to report to the Governor's Mansion.

I saw that Hong Chengchou was unassuming, and he smiled and offered tea and said: "This horse milk tea is a specialty of the grassland, and you can't drink it elsewhere. It may be a bit uncomfortable at first, but it still feels good after drinking too much, Brother Yang Don't bother to try it!"

When Yang Sichang saw it, he quickly picked up his teacup, and at the same time said with a little respect: "Your Excellency is too polite. I am a subordinate of your Excellency. How dare you call him that!"

Hong Chengchou didn't take it seriously, he took a sip of horse milk tea first, then put down the teacup and said: "I am under the command of Governor Yang, and I have received the care of Governor Yang, and it is also recommended by Governor Yang, that I can get to where I am today. Position. How can I forget this kind of kindness! This is the back hall, not the outside, and I treat him with personal friendship. And I am five years younger, so I should call him Brother Yang."

After hearing this, Yang Sichang wanted to decline again, but seeing Hong Chengchou brought up the topic again, he didn't give him a chance to say: "A few days ago, I learned about Brother Yang's grassland strategy from the emperor, and I was really amazed. Brother Yang It's really a blessing to help me!"

Having said that, he picked up the maid and filled the cup of horse milk tea again, and signaled to Yang Sichang: "Since Brother Yang is here, I will entrust the Baotou side to Brother Yang!"

As far as the current situation is concerned, the danger in Baotou is not small. Yang Sichang is here, and he is also the governor of Baotou. Naturally, he has to share a large burden on Hong Chengchou.In this case, he naturally welcomes it very much.

From the beginning, although Hong Chengchou was polite, he acted very strong.Yang Sichang also knew it in his heart, don't look at Hong Chengchou being polite at the moment, talking about his father's kindness, and admiring himself, but if something really happened, such a powerful person as Hong Chengchou would never think about it.

"What kind of virtue and ability is this lower official, it's all thanks to the emperor's advice!" Yang Sichang continued to maintain a modest posture, "over there in Baotou, the lower official will naturally do his best, which was guaranteed before the emperor. When I was in front of the imperial court, I also heard the emperor personally praised the governor, and I believe that with the governor in charge of the overall situation, I will definitely be able to gain a firm foothold in Hetao!"

After finishing speaking, he drank the tea in the cup, frowned, but immediately relaxed it, and then said with a smile: "This special product of the grassland really has a special taste, not bad, not bad!"

Invisibly, he sent a message to Hong Chengchou.He, Yang Sichang, is a person valued by the emperor, and you, Hong Chengchou, are also a man of great talent. You are in charge of the overall situation here in Hetao. If something happens, no one can escape.

Hong Chengchou didn't seem to hear it, and still smiled and said: "It seems that brother Yang is still very used to this horse milk tea, which is a good sign!"

After saying this, he paused, seemed to remember something, then smiled and said: "At first, I wanted to clean up Brother Yang today, but there are distinguished guests coming in these two days, the grassland is bitterly cold, and supplies are scarce, so I simply Let's entertain together. If there is any negligence, I will look to Haihan!"

"Honored guest?" Yang Sichang was stunned after hearing this, and then asked a little curiously: "But Yuan Fuchen Cheng Jiming and Yushi Liu..."

"Brother Yang's words!" Hong Chengchou said with a smile after listening, "Brother Yang said a few words, and they have already arrived. If Brother Yang is interested in seeing you, I'll let someone bring them in. I'm a distinguished guest, But it's a real honored guest. This honored guest is..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he saw a personal guard rushing in, clasped his fists and said: "Master, Minister of Rites has arrived outside Guihua City!"

"What?" Hong Chengchou immediately stood up and said in surprise, "Why so fast!"

Speaking of this, he also knew that the guards could not answer this question, so he turned his head and said to Yang Sichang who also stood up, "The distinguished guest I mentioned came so fast, let's go, Brother Yang, come with me to meet him!"

Xu Guangqi, Minister of Rites?A name flashed in Yang Sichang's mind, he was also surprised, and he didn't dare to neglect, he hurriedly followed Hong Chengchou out.

Not long after, outside Guihua City, Hong Chengchou took the lead and led his civilian and military generals to wait for the convoy winding from the south.

Or the convoy also saw a group of officials outside the city gate, so they speeded up and arrived at the city in a short while.

"The lower official and naturalized governor, Hong Chengchou, and his naturalized colleagues welcome the Minister of Rites!" Hong Chengchou's voice was loud and full of enthusiasm.For him, Xu Guangqi's arrival is a warm welcome.There is no other reason, only because Xu Guangqi brought something he wanted very much.

On the first carriage, a guard lifted the curtain, and Xu Guangqi got out with a tired face. With the support of the guard, after getting off the carriage, he smiled and said, "Thank you, everyone!"

After Hong Chengchou laid down Guihua City and took control of the Hetao Plain, Emperor Chongzhen ordered Xu Guangqi in Guangxi to bring crop seeds to Hetao through Liu Jinsheng, a member of the chat group.

Although Xu Guangqi is good at farming, he also knows about military affairs, so he naturally knows the importance of Ming's mastery of Hetao.Therefore, as soon as he received the order, he rushed to Hetao immediately.Originally scheduled to arrive in Guihua City tomorrow, Xu Guangqi insisted on arriving one day earlier.

While he was talking, he suddenly caught sight of Cheng Jiming behind Hong Chengchou, and he shrank back, evasively, as if unwilling to face himself.Later, Xu Guangqi also saw several other familiar faces, all of whom seemed to be from the imperial censor.

Hehe, the level of this little Guihua state is really high!Xu Guangqi thought about it, but he didn't take the initiative to say hello.Now is the time when people are down and out, if they don't want to see themselves, there is no need to make troubles!

So, surrounded by Hong Chengchou, Yang Sichang and others, he walked into the city, and at the same time said to the two people around him: "After I left Beijing, I was ordered to promote sweet potatoes and collect crops from all over the country. There are a lot of good things. However, the habits of some things are not yet understood, so I will keep some of them, try to plant them, and see which ones are suitable for the Hetao, and the planting can be promoted on a large scale starting next year. I hope it can help you!"
