Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 46 Arrival
As Xiong Tingbi sees it, Tieling at this moment is like a field of thriving farmers, full of vitality and gratifying growth.

Aside from the local soldiers and civilians in Tieling, there is another person who lives like a fish in water here, and this person is Cao Bianjiao.

Being trusted and recognized by others can be said to be the greatest affirmation of this person's ability. There is an old saying in China that a scholar dies for his confidant.

With Ye Xun's warrant, and more and more refugees flocking to Tieling, and many of them are strong young people, Cao Bianjiao easily recruited enough 200 people for the first batch of sharp knife camps.

If the requirements for soldiers were not too strict, let alone two hundred, even two thousand would not be a problem.

However, Cao Bianjiao followed Ye Xun's instructions and based on the principle of preferring the lack of abuse, he made strict requirements on the soldiers of the Jiandao Battalion in terms of body, age and even origin.

These 200 people are all above and below 30 years old, strong and clean, and veterans are determined not to. The most important point is that these people must be all Han Chinese.

What Ye Xun wants is an absolutely loyal deployment. Liaodong is now mixed with fish and dragons. Who can guarantee that there are no Jurchen or Mongolian spies in Tieling now?For such an important team, if spies were mixed in, the excitement would be great.

After recruiting the number of people, Ye Xun also gave great support to this team, three meals a day, guaranteed meat every day, double the salary of ordinary soldiers, weapons and armor, long and short, all can be the best yes they come.

Even the personal guards led by Liang Zhen were not as well treated and equipped as the Jiandao Battalion.

With Ye Xun's strong support, Cao Bianjiao was more confident and vowed to build the first army in Liaodong and never let Ye Gonggong down.

Cao Bianjiao's family wasn't in Tieling, so he just stayed in the military camp every day, eating and lodging with these people.

Ye Xun was busy scheming people, and Cao Bianjiao was also very busy here. Ye Xun personally participated in the formulation of the training plan, so the training intensity was much higher than that of ordinary soldiers.

Cao Bianjiao was having fun in the midst of suffering. He had just finished his training this morning, and before he could wipe his face off when he got back to the tent, his subordinates came to report that his relatives outside the camp wanted him to go out and meet him.

Cao Bianjiao was taken aback. He knew very well that only uncle could claim to be his relative in Liaodong. These days, he was only focused on selecting and training his subordinates, but he forgot that he came out with uncle. Uncle went to Fushun with Mr. Xiong Well, counting the days, it's almost time to come.

Cao Bianjiao followed his uncle to enlist in the army. He was most afraid of this uncle with both civil and military skills since he was a child. He was at fault at first, but now that his uncle came to him, he was at a loss for what to do.

But he also knew that since his uncle had come to him, he must have known his whereabouts, and he couldn't hide, so let's meet!
Bite the bullet and came to the gate of the camp, and sure enough, I saw my uncle Cao Wenzhao standing outside with two entourages with a gloomy face.

Cao Wenzhao is around forty, with a medium build and elegant appearance. It is difficult to associate him with a military general just from his appearance.

In fact, Cao Wenzhao came here with the intention of provoking his teacher to inquire about his crimes, and at the same time he was proud of his nephew.

Cao Wenzhao has been in the army for many years, of course he knows how powerful the Tartars are, and that Eunuch Ye not only killed the number one warrior in the Xianglan Banner, but also used tricks to force Nurhachi to retreat, making the old slave return to Hetuala in despair.

No one knows better than the generals who have been stationed in Liaodong all the year round how difficult it is for Ye Xun to do these things. It would be unthinkable for an ordinary general, but his nephew can be favored by Ye Gonggong. What an honor!
The status of warriors in the Ming Dynasty was low, and they didn't have as many twists and turns as literati. Good is good. It doesn't matter whether you are an eunuch or not, as long as you are a hero, you are worthy of admiration.

Cao Bianjiao didn't dare to look at his uncle's face, bowed his head and saluted, "My nephew has seen my uncle, when did my uncle arrive, did you go to see Eunuch Ye?"

Cao Wenzhao said with a stern face: "Hmph! You are getting more and more courageous. If I hadn't found you, you probably wouldn't have told me where you were?"

Cao Bianjiao scratched his head, "Hey!" He smiled and said, "I've been too busy recently, don't blame uncle, please sit inside."

Cao Wenzhao gave the disobedient nephew a hard look, and said, "There's no need to go in. Mr. Xiong is here, go and report to Eunuch Ye."

"Yo! Master Xiong is here? Uncle wait a moment, my nephew is going to report to Eunuch Ye, by the way, where is Master Xiong?"

Seeing that his uncle didn't clean up himself, Cao Bianjiao couldn't help being overjoyed. After asking where Xiong Tingbi was, he took a walk and ran away.

Looking at the back of his nephew who seemed to have not yet grown up, Cao Wenzhao couldn't help but stroking his beard and laughing, brat, why are you still acting like a child when you follow Eunuch Ye?

Although Ye Xun overshadowed the sky with one hand in Tieling, after all, he didn't have a clear official position, and he could still put on airs in front of others, but he still had to be honest in front of Xiong Tingbi, the Liaodong strategist.

Hearing Cao Bianjiao's report, Ye Xun was also taken aback. Although he had thought that Xiong Tingbi would come subduedly, he still reported a trace of fantasy. He hoped that Xiong Tingbi would notify him before he arrived so that he could make preparations. Now it seems that this I'm afraid that Xiong Jing has already checked him out, right?

What should come is always coming, there is no time to think about it, and no time to call other officials, let Cao Bianjiao lead the way, and rush directly to where Xiong Tingbi is.

Ye Xun had a guilty conscience. Xiong Tingbi did inquire about Ye Xun's actions, but in the current situation in Tieling, no one spoke ill of Ye Xun. As for Liu Yong and Li Ruzhen, Xiong Tingbi was not interested in knowing at all.

Xiong Tingbi didn't let Ye Xun go to the inn, nor did he go directly to the government office, because he didn't want Ye Xun to think too much.

When he came here, he was still skeptical about the rumors, but after a few days of understanding, he was convinced that this little eunuch was really different.

Because of this, Xiong Tingbi, a grumpy businessman, gave Ye Xun, a eunuch, a very high score in his heart.

In addition, although Xiong Tingbi has a bad temper, he is not a brainless person. He invited Ye Xun to the tavern, in fact, he wanted to make friends with Ye Xun in a different way. The emperor's valet?If they make friends well, it will definitely help him in his future career.

So eunuchs cannot be offended, especially eunuchs who are more miraculous.

Ye Xun had done too many secret things in Tieling, and when he saw Xiong Tingbi, he was still very nervous, but he didn't know that Xiong Tingbi had put down his dignity, and was going to cut chicken heads and burn yellow paper with him.

Just when Ye Xun was in a hurry to meet Xiong Tingbi, a fast horse rode outside the east gate.

The rapid sound of horseshoes frightened the passing people to hide on the side of the road to avoid being injured by horseshoes.

Seeing this, the soldiers guarding the city gate raised their bows and set up arrows to stop them. The officer guarding the gate was about to dismount the man, but suddenly found that the knight on horseback was wearing the uniform of a Ming army messenger, and there were three small red flags on his back.

This was clearly an urgent courier from [-] miles away. The gate guard officer was frightened and hurriedly called out to his subordinates, and quickly gave way to the courier.

Immediately the knight obviously saw this kind of scene a lot, and he didn't slow down when he reached the city gate, and rushed straight in.

Looking at the back of the knight leaving in the dust, the officer couldn't help asking suspiciously: "What's the rush? Could it be the Tartars coming again."
