Chongzhen Undergraduates

Chen Zilong wanted to take the lead and act as a striker for Zhu Youjian, and this striker had to be a troublemaker.

After thinking through all these ways, Deng Zhirong turned around and ran out.On the playground, Zhu Youjian's lecture was coming to an end, and the officers also received their commissions one by one, and they were all immersed in joy.

Looking left and right, finally waited until Zhu Youjian left the stage, Deng Zhirong found a chance to join him: "Commander, I don't know what I want to eat tonight, I specially reserved a few roasted pig's trotters."

Zhu Youjian took a look at Deng Zhirong, thinking that this kid never took the initiative to find him, and today the sun came out from the west.

"Tell me, what's the matter with you. If you have nothing to do, you are courteous. If you are either a rape or a thief, don't play tricks in front of me." Glaring at Deng Zhirong, Zhu Youjian wanted to see what he could come up with.

Deng Zhirong rubbed his hands together and smiled: "Commander, give me a company, I'll go to Anton Guard to recruit troops."

Zhu Youjian was taken aback: I was really thinking about sending someone south just now, why did someone recommend himself right away.Is this kid a roundworm in my stomach?

"How many soldiers can you recruit in Anton Guard?"

"Ten thousand." Deng Zhirong blurted out without thinking.

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Youjian was frightened.[-] soldiers, but a lot, how could this kid have such a big tone.

"An Dongwei probably doesn't have so many soldiers to recruit for you."

"Haizhou has it!" Deng Zhirong chuckled and looked at Zhu Youjian playfully.

This time it was Zhu Youjian's turn to be stunned.Farewell for three days, let's look at each other with admiration!Has this kid recently steamed steamed buns to open up the brains of pigs?

"Did your fire-headed army recruit new soldiers in the past two days?" Zhu Youjian thought for a second, this was definitely not Deng Zhirong's idea, and even if he was killed, he would not believe that the elm head was so clever.

"There is a recruit named Chen Zilong."

"Oh, that's not surprising. You're lucky!" Zhu Youjian suddenly realized that if it was Chen Zilong's vision, it would be reasonable to be able to see important nodes like Haizhou.

"Then you promised me to go to Antonwei?" Deng Zhirong was very happy, feeling elated.

Now that the talk is on this point, Zhu Youjian can't justify his refusal to agree, and he can't let the young people down, right?Well, in fact, Zhu Youjian himself is also a young man. According to his original age, he is actually younger than Deng Zhirong.

"I'll give you a regiment, and you go to Antonwei to pull out a team of 1 people. If you can't complete the task, you will always be a chef in the future."

"Then can I bring Chen Zilong with me?"

"Beautiful idea! I'll send another person for you." It would be a waste for a talent like Chen Zilong to be assigned to a regiment leader as a staff officer.After much deliberation, Zhu Youjian finally assigned Deng Zhirong's good friends Zheng Wei and Chen Mingyu to him.

Zheng Wei is now the magistrate of Tai'an Prefecture. He belongs to the local administrator and has nothing to do with the army.However, in Zhu Youjian's preset defense line, Haizhou is a point that must be defended, and two city defenders with one article and one military are needed here.

Deng Zhirong was a little disappointed when he heard that Chen Zilong was not given to him, and returned to the kitchen with some emotions.Chen Zilong was very surprised to see that he didn't look happy, and thought: Did I guess the emperor's mind wrong?

"The commander didn't agree?" Chen Zilong asked Deng Zhirong.

"Agreed, and let me take a group there."

"Then why aren't you happy?"

"I told the commander that I want you to go with me, but the commander refused." Deng Zhirong felt that it was a great honor for him to think of Chen Zilong when he had something good to do.

Chen Zilong smiled, like a mirror in his heart, the emperor put his old nose to deal with him, and he would never use it so easily.

The next day, Deng Zhirong was reinstated, but he was still acting head of the regiment, because yesterday's letter of appointment was not for him.As for the manpower assigned to him, Zhu Youjian directly gave the letter of appointment.

Chen Mingyu was directly the deputy head of the regiment, and Zheng Wei was the chief of staff of the regiment.This is the first time that Zhu Youjian has formally assigned the post of chief of staff. As for the former chief of staff of Cheng Xianzhen's brigade, he became the director of the war room next to Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian would rather believe in Zheng Wei than Deng Zhirong. Anyway, Zheng Wei is a general who can pull up a team of thousands of people.When there is a real combat mission, he is probably more reliable than Deng Zhirong.

As for Chen Mingyu, although he was not from the army, he should be able to be one of the Three Heroes of Jiangyin and the deputy head of the regiment.

Chapter 68: Anton Guard Recruits

Haizhou's move was actually discussed by Zhu Youjian and Li Yan before.

It's just that Zhu Youjian has no suitable candidate and has been hesitant.Li Yan originally wanted Li Nian to go, but he was always worried and kept silent.

Andongwei is the closest guardhouse in Shandong to Haizhou, and it is right next to Haizhou controlled by Liu Zeqing.Deng Zhirong was originally the commander of the Dongchang Guard, and he was transferred to the Andong Guard at the same level.

There was a lot of news about Deng Zhirong's appointment, and the news had spread to An Dongwei a few days before he arrived.Liu Zeqing's [-] soldiers and horses were stationed in Ganyu in the north of Haizhou, which happened to be not far from An Dongwei.

Zheng Longfang, deputy general of Liu Zeqing in Haizhou City, had received news a few days ago that a battalion of soldiers from Central Lu would be stationed at An Dongwei.

This is a new thing. The Huai'an army has always been making troubles. When will it be the turn of the Luzhong people to be rampant.This incident made Zheng Longfang uncomfortable, so he decided to send someone to investigate.

When I came to Antonwei, the whole Antonwei was said to be a guard, but in fact it was so poor that there were only five hundred veterans who were over forty.These half-hundred little old men held rusty single guns, and they couldn't even stand in a row.

The Andong Guard, one of the four northern Davids in the early Ming Dynasty, had declined to the point where its population was withered and its soldiers were exhausted by the late Chongzhen period.

All the soldiers at the guard station fled, and the Donghai Zhongsuo, which had only a few troops, was completely controlled by Liu Zeqing, and the Anton Guard was just a decoration.

"The team has assembled, sir, please speak." The hundred households standing at the gate of the guard and leading the team are called Zhao Lu, in his early thirties, and he is the youngest in the entire Anton Guard.According to him, if he hadn't recently heard that an official would come to hand over the matter, he would have gone to Haizhou a long time ago.

Liu Zeqing recruited a lot in Haizhou, and all the young and strong men from the nearby guards ran towards Haizhou, and the rest were too old or not wanted by the Huai'an army.

Deng Zhirong looked at these wrinkled peasants, waved his hand and said, "It's all gone."

The camp of the guard has long been uninhabitable, and the camp inside is also dilapidated. The stove for living and cooking has collapsed, and even the roof has broken several big holes.

"Commander, why do we all wear the most ragged clothes and don't even carry weapons? Look at this place, this is not the director's place, the pigsty is better than this." Deng Zhirong's battalion commander Zhang Debiao was puzzled.

"It's a bit broken, but you don't have to worry, boy, we are here to enjoy the blessings. In two days, someone will give us clothes and weapons."

Before leaving Laiwu, Deng Zhirong approached Chen Zilong with a shy face.Chen Zilong taught the mystery face to face, telling Deng Zhirong not to be afraid of troubles after he came to Andongwei, but to provoke troubles on purpose.

Originally, after Liu Zeqing hid in Huai'an, he often poached corners from Shandong, especially after returning from Luzhong, he took the initiative to provoke the boundaries of Shandong many times.

Zhu Youjian endured it all the time, and even withdrew the main outposts to Yishui and Mengyin.

"Zhang Debiao, take someone to the village to see if there are any chickens or anything, and catch them all for me. The whole group will eat chicken drumsticks at night!"

"Regimental Commander, will this violate discipline?" Zhang Debiao was afraid, because the Laiwu Barracks has been promoting military discipline recently, and many soldiers have been punished.

"Whatever you want to say, just go if you are told. If something goes wrong, I am the one!" Deng Zhirong could only believe Chen Zilong's words now, and made up his mind to fight it out.

While Deng Zhirong was speaking, a distinguished guest had already arrived at Zhao Lu's house.The distinguished guest of Zhao Lu's family was sent by Zheng Longfang to inquire about the news.

"Brother Liu, the soldiers who came today seem to be very poor. The clothes are torn and torn, and there are few weapons in hand. They are young, and they are all dolls in their 20s." Zhao Lu has already sold Deng Zhirong and others. .

"Let's wait for a few days and see how they behave." The visitor drank the good wine that Zhao Lu had just bought, slurped down a glass, and secretly glanced at Zhao Lu's wife in the kitchen.

Zhao Lu's wife, Wang Shi, felt that there seemed to be two eyes staring at her behind her, so she hurriedly avoided, turned around and went to the stove.

The guest noticed that the woman in the kitchen moved away, moved his body, and tilted his head to continue aiming at another angle.

Zhao Lu didn't understand, he used his body to block the sight of the guests, raised a glass of wine to him, and said, "Brother Liu, let me toast you again."
