The Founding of the Red Chamber

The last time Yancheng only killed 5000 Japanese pirates who came to rob, and it was enough to alarm the governor.In this battle, although our own [-] men and horses wiped out [-] Japanese pirates, the Jiangnan soldiers did not lose much. Only more than [-] people died on the battlefield, most of them were injured. Hurt a little, anyway, save your life.

It is conceivable that this big victory shocked Jiangnan's official circles!The governor of Zhejiang Dizhang was so happy that when Vice General Xu was waiting to return to Hangzhou, he went out to greet him in person, took Vice General Xu's hand, and praised all the soldiers who participated in the battle.Waiting for Governor Zhang's note to be handed over, this big victory directly alarmed the court.

For example, Vice General Xu directly promoted to the first rank, from the fourth rank to the third rank.Such as Zhuo Qianhu, from the fifth rank, promoted from the fourth rank.Another example is Tu Xiaosan, Tu Xiaosan had the merits of suppressing the Japanese before, but now he is promoted to rank the fastest, and he is directly promoted from the fifth rank Qianhu he bought to the fourth rank lieutenant.Tu Xiaosan's garrison site came from Yancheng Guard to Jiashan.

Lin Jing is in good health now, and after his apprentice Xiaosan accepted the order, he changed the military officer's uniform of the fifth rank and green background Xiong Wei into the official uniform of the fourth rank of the big red tiger and leopard.Lin Jing looked at the official uniform and said, "Although it doesn't matter if you are an official or not, this red color looks better than the blue color."

Hearing this, Chen Erqing also said, "Brother is so majestic in red."

Because Tu Xiaosan's current territory has expanded to Jiashan, Tu Xiaosan is still in Yancheng, but the military affairs in Jiashan are already his responsibility.Zhang Qianhu from Jiashan also came early to pay his respects to Tu Xiaosan. In addition to paying his respects, he also asked Vice General Lin (Tu Xiaosan) about Jiashan's military affairs arrangements.

When Tu Xiaosan saw Zhang Qianhu at first glance, he was really shocked, and thought to himself, this person must be born better.If Tu Xiaosan hadn't been with Lin Jing for a long time, Zhang Qianhu would have been amazed.Even Chen Erqing, beside Tu Xiaosan, thought that he had seen a lot after following the third brother, but this time when he saw Zhang Qianhu, Chen Erqing couldn't help but look at Zhang Qianhu's neck to see if he had an Adam's apple .As a result, um, what, yes.

Well, when Chen Erqing saw Lin Jing for the first time back then, he was still following his apprentice, secretly watching Lin Jing go to the toilet...but he didn't see anything, and Lin Jing was mean to him. It has been cleaned up several times.However, Chen Erqing was also sure that Lin Jing peed standing up, so he regarded Lin Jing as a man.

Seeing this picture of thousands of households now, Chen Erqing thought to himself, I'm so good, it's true that there are more mothers than mothers, and each generation is better than each other!

In fact, this is Chen Erqing's aesthetic deviation. He has always believed that a man is a man who can drink heavily, eat meat, and chop with a sword.But he didn't know that the aesthetics of today's world is really not Chen Erqing's "bandit style" aesthetics, or Lin Jing and Zhang Qianhu's handsome, refined, clean and fair young men, who are more popular with girls .As Chen Erqing said, those with big arms and round waists, together with him, are more popular with middle-aged and elderly widows~

Of course, Chen Erqing wouldn't say that, that's why he hates the boy~

Chen Erqing was thinking about it, Zhang Qianhu got up, and saluted Tu Xiaosan respectfully, Tu Xiaosan said softly, "Zhang Qianhu, please sit down, I'm busy these days, otherwise I'll go to Jiashan in person I wanted to ask you to come and have a seat, but you arrived first."

Zhang Qianhu hurriedly said, "I heard about the Haiyan war a while ago, and I wanted to lead the army to help. However, the news from the lower official was late. When I heard the news, the general had already defeated the Japanese pirates. The lower official thought, after the war, there will always be A lot of medicinal materials were used, so some medicinal materials were raised in Jiashan. One is to congratulate the general on his great victory, and the other is to express a little heart from the subordinate officials. All the people in the south of the Yangtze River do not hate Japanese pirates. The general is really doing it for us in Jiangnan. The common people have taken revenge!" Zhang Qianhu said very affectionately.

Tu Xiaosan accepted it politely.Thinking that this piece of Qianhu really knows how to give gifts, isn't he short of medicinal materials here at the moment.

Now that Zhang Qianhu has come, Tu Xiaosan must ask about Jiashan's military affairs.He didn't ask anyone else, but asked Zhang Qianhu how many soldiers he had in Jiashan, how many soldiers he had under his command, and about the age of the soldiers.In addition, just looking at the combat power of Zhang Qianhu's personal guards, now that Tu Xiaosan is in Haiyan, most of the Jiashan incident is based on what Zhang Qianhu said.However, the military and government of a place are good or bad, and sometimes you don't have to go there in person to know.

If you want Tu Xiaosan to tell you, although Zhang Qianhu is a bit more handsome, he is very handsome as an official, and he is very clear about the soldiers under his command.Zhang Qianhu sighed, "Since Jiashan was defeated in the previous period, it is said that several county magistrates have been sent, but none of them can be the chief."

Tu Xiaosan said, "I don't think Zhang Qianhu was born as a warrior."

There was a wry smile on Zhang Qianhu Xiuya's face, "The lower officials can be regarded as driving ducks to the shelves. When General Zhao died in the city, our Jia County was miserable. In that battle, the officials in the county went out of ten. It was my family and my father. I was killed by Japanese pirates. I went out to sell silk that day, and I was killed because I was outside. When I rushed back home, I will never forget that kind of situation in my life!" Zhang Qianhu's eyes showed a trace of grief, he said , "It's like that in the county. Not only my family, but also the folks who were lucky enough not to be killed by the pirates have no idea. I discussed with the elders in the county and settled the dead. When I was an official, in order to go out It's cheap, my late father donated a fifth-rank official body to the lower official. The battle in Jiashan was too miserable. Several officials came, but they couldn't stand. You guys... Hey, support, let me become a thousand households. But when I was young, I studied and didn't know martial arts. Later, I didn't finish my studies, so I changed to take care of the family business. But, the adults can't refuse the idea. Fortunately, , In the past two years, Jiashan has been relatively peaceful, and the thousands of households who have been subordinated to the government have been in charge."

Zhang Qianhu said euphemistically, what about the support of the adults above, at that time, absolutely no one wanted to be an official in Jiashan, so Zhang Qianhu was selected as a donated official.Tu Xiaosan smiled, "I see that you, an official, are doing something."

Zhang Qianhu said humbly, "This is the only thing I can do. I have done my best. I dare not say anything else. I have no conscience."

"Well said." Tu Xiaosan applauded, stayed until noon, and even hosted a banquet for Zhang Qianhu to eat with him.

When eating, Tu Xiaosan asked, "Have you delivered lunch from Ah Qing?"

Chen Erqing said, "I'll send it off. Ah Qing's complexion is much better. When I went, I was basking in the sun and reading a book in the yard."

"When it's time to give birth and take care of your body, what books should you read, please God." Tu Xiaosan said.

Because Zhang Qianhu was there, Chen Erqing didn't say anything, but Chen Erqing said in his stomach, third brother, you can't even control Brother Ajing, let alone him~

Tu Xiaosan didn't say any more.

Zhang Qianhu wondered inwardly, thinking to himself, who is this Brother Ah Qing, and the lieutenant general is so concerned.Tu Xiaosan then said, "Ah Qing was exhausted from the previous battle. He is not in good health, so see you when he comes back next time. If you meet, you will be able to talk."

Chen Erqing nodded, got up and poured a cup for Tu Xiaosan and Zhang Qianhu, and said, "This is really true, you are all talents."

Zhang Qianhu stood up and took the drink that Ah Erqing poured. Although this Chen Baihu was just a Baihu, he was naturally a confidant of Deputy General Lin (Tu Xiaosan) who was able to follow Vice General Lin (Tu Xiaosan). Canada.

Chen Erqing thought, although these scholars look like women, they are really polite.

We talked and had a drink.

In the evening, Tu Xiaosan went back to the courtyard to rest, and told Lin Jing about Zhang Qianhu.Lin Jing said, "I heard from Erqing at noon that he was a scholar who made a thousand households."

"Well, I'm not a scholar. I read some books when I was young, but I didn't get a name after that, so I started a business with my family." In Tu Xiaosan's view, Zhang Qianhu's knowledge cannot be compared with his own Ah Jing.

Lin Jing said, "Er Qing said, he is very handsome."

"Hey, Erqing, you said, he was an official for several years a few years ago, and now he is also an official, and he still speaks so incoherently." Tu Xiaosan was also amazed by Zhang Qianhu for a moment. After all, this person is A little handsome, but Tu Xiaosan thinks he has seen the big world.Zhang Qianhu's idea is handsome, not to mention compared with Lin Jing, even if there are so many romantic people in the capital, he is inferior to Zhang Qianhu.It can also be seen that people's visions are different here, Tu Xiaosanzong was born in a poor family, and his youth was rough, but it was the experience of these years that really trained him.Tu Xiaosan said something fair, "I think that although he came from a businessman, he looks a bit like an official. But if he is particularly outstanding, he can't be said to be so."

Hearing what Tu Xiaosan said, Lin Jing didn't particularly take Zhang Qianhu to heart.

After all, it was only a trivial matter for Zhang Qianhu to come to pay his respects.Lin Jing's thoughts were not in Jiangnan, but in the imperial court.Lin Jing and Tu Xiaosan said, "Third brother, you have paid more attention to the war in the south of the Yangtze River recently, and there are also Japanese bandits in other places."

Tu Xiaosan said, "The Japanese pirates were defeated just now, how dare they go ashore?"

"It's not just our place, the war in Jiangmin and Fujian, third brother, you should also ask someone to inquire about it."

Tu Xiaosan said, "Don't tell me, the Japanese pirates have run into trouble here. As long as they are active, they probably won't come to us in a short time. However, we can't relax our precautions. Jiangnan and Fujian also often Being harassed by Japanese pirates, I have to make them be more careful. Hey, I will write a letter to Mr. Xu tomorrow.” This is about Xu Xieling who has just been promoted to the leader.

"Alright."

At this time, not only Tu Xiaosan and Lin Jing in Haiyan City were concerned about the Japanese pirate rebellion, but also the governor's mansion in Hangzhou. Governor Zhang gave a detailed account of the chief confidant, Mr. He.
