Chapter 430 Killing all the Japanese pirates and returning home
On New Year's Eve, there is a big difference between the south and the north, and Qian Yuan had some experience in his previous life.
In the north, there is often lunch and a meal of dumplings at night, while in the south, there are often random gangsters at noon, waiting for a big meal at night. In this era... the north is not very clear, but in the south, it is still the rule.
For the evening meal, the housewives and female family members of every household have been busy since the morning, and the Qian family is similar. However, Qian Yuan personally cooks the New Year's Eve dinner in recent years, and the younger sister has been waiting for it.
Unfortunately, the younger sister in her new clothes didn’t see anyone early in the morning. It’s okay if my second brother is not here, but my second sister-in-law is not here anymore... Didn’t I get beaten last night?
"Stop watching, several maids are following your second sister-in-law out." Huang hugged the child and smiled: "Let the kitchen wash and cut the vegetables, and wait for the second brother to come back."
Tan said dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Qi is going to see the wounded soldiers. What is Yuan'er going out to do? During the New Year, the officials in the capital will also be released from the yamen."
The little sister shook her head and supported Tan, "My mother said it a few times. Let my daughter learn some cooking skills. Don't be disliked in the future if she is like her second sister-in-law. Let's accompany her second brother tonight..."
Huang couldn't help laughing, and saw that there was nothing to do on Tan's face, but they thought a little too much, Qian Yuan really didn't have time to cook today.
Eight miles northwest of Linhai County, there is a military camp not far from Lingjiang. Although it is winter and New Year's Eve, the camp still practices constantly, and the shouts are shocking. There are still a large number of young and strong people building barracks on the left.
More than twenty horses rushed from afar. A soldier shouted loudly from the height of the camp gate, but he soon saw the person coming clearly, shouted down a few times, and climbed down like a monkey to open the camp gate.
The new Ning Shaotai general Lu Bin, guerrilla general Hou Jigao, who had been prepared, and the Yiwu army leader who had arrived yesterday brought the general Qi Jimei to welcome him.
"I will pay my respects to you..."
"Okay!" Qian Yuan turned over and dismounted, and cursed with a smile: "It's all my family. Don't pretend. If you really want to kneel down, you'll be afraid that you will secretly scold me for being in charge of Qian Zhan, so you can show your power."
When Hou Ji was a young man, he was studying and said with a smile: "It was said that you would not go south again on that day. I didn't expect that you would gather again in two months, and abandon the Shujishi and go south to the Censorate to fight against the Japanese. Who doesn't admire him? Who would curse secretly?"
"Who doesn't admire it?" Qian Yuan chuckled and threw the horse whip to Zhang San. "There are many contempts in the capital... Although they don't say it, it's true that the Japanese riots in the southeast have anything to do with them!"
Hou Jigao, Dong Bangzheng and Yu Dayou had a good relationship, and Wang Chonggu paid more attention to it. The news was much better than the two leaders around him. He couldn't help but look dark when he heard this. The political struggle in the capital was fierce, and he regarded the war situation in the southeast as a battlefield for war. Except for officials from the southeast, not many people took the Southeast anti-Japanese war to heart.
Qian Yuan patted Hou Jigao on the shoulder, "Don't think about it. This time, when you and I will be reunited with two Longquan swords, you and me will definitely be able to kill all directions."
"How dare you compare with Zhancai..."
"Brother Longquan said this." After his father Lu Tong was imprisoned, Lu Bin became much more calm. "Prime Minister Zhancai's overall situation, Brother Longquan charges in the battle... Outside Tongxiang County, if Brother Longquan had not been charged to the death, how could a great victory come?"
After chatting for a few more words, Qian Yuan turned to look at Qi Jimei, "Your brother wrote a letter to curse, insisting that Qian robbed people..."
"The Governor's Office Order." Qi Jimei was also helpless, "The brother also wrote a letter saying that Zhan Cai, Liu Bei, borrowed Jingzhou."
"It's okay, I'll go back and write a letter to your sister-in-law." Qian Yuan sneered: "I heard that Qi Jiguang... raised a concubine in Ningbo?"
Lu Bin and Hou Jigao couldn't help but laugh at Qi Jiguang, who was promoted to deputy general of Zhejiang, was afraid of his wife like a tiger... It turned out that not many people knew about it, but with Qian Yuan's strong praise, it was already Ningbo and everyone around Taizhou.
Qi Jimei couldn't help but refute a few words. The Qian family guards were like Zhou Ze, and Zhang San spoke one after another, causing laughter at the camp gate.
They were all comrades-in-arms fighting side by side in Jiaxing Prefecture. After a few greetings, everyone walked towards the school ground on the right side of the barracks. The training just ended and the soldiers sat on the ground to rest.
We really cannot be too demanding of soldiers of this era. We are willing to fight bravely to fight the enemy. We are already considered good soldiers without causing trouble on weekdays. Whispering together is nothing, as long as we don’t disturb the queue.
"Not broken up," Lu Bin introduced: "Yiwu soldiers arrived yesterday, and there was no training. The ones holding guns on the left were Songjiang soldiers, and the ones holding guns on the right were Jiaxing soldiers... In fact, they were the soldiers I recruited in Yanzhou Prefecture at the beginning of last year, and should be considered Yanzhou soldiers."
"Does of Songjiang soldiers went back, after all, the ones transferred to me that day were not entirely under my command." Hou Jigao explained: "The direct descendants brought them here, but most of the bird gun soldiers under the command of Lord Dong, General Wusong, were transferred back."
"The bird gun was taken away?"
"Of course." Hou Jigao smiled bitterly, "Even so, General Dong still wrote to complain... Of course, it's not complaining about me."
"That's just complaining about me?" Qian Yuan curled his lips, "I'll make up for you two hundred bird guns, but you have to wait. Use these dozens of them to practice first. Don't be afraid of the consumption of bullets and gunpowder. There are still inventory in the government office."
"In addition... Zhan Cai can't help asking for someone?" Hou Jigao whispered: "When a battle outside Tongxiang County, Wu Chengqi cannot be brave..."
"Don't even think about it!" Qian Yuan glared, "This time in Beijing, I severely humiliated the former Songjiang Prefecture Promoter, and now the Ministry of Justice's Superintendent Wu Shilai."
"Wu Chengqi is a civil servant?" Hou Jigao was surprised. He knew very well that it was Wu Shi who came to attack and asked Dong Bangzheng to change from civil and military. Although the position of General Wu Song was not bad, it was over, and the governor who went up could not even think about it.
"He is from Huizhou, a fellow villager of Hu Ruzhen. During the period of Ding You, he was recommended by Hu Ruzhen to regain his love. He had served as the Kuaiji Dianshi before." Qian Yuan did not explain angrily, and wanted to find out without asking clearly. He paused and said, "It can be put into Linhai County or Taizhou Prefecture... Let's talk about it later."
"By the way, how about the ordnance equipment?"
"It must be all." Qi Jimei interrupted, "I'm complaining about this in the letter."
"how?"
Lu Bin explained with a smile: "General Qi is in Yiwu, and Taizhou gathers blacksmiths to make spears and other weapons, but the weapons left in Yiwu are all..."
"I took them to Jiaxing Prefecture, and now they are brought to Taizhou again." Qi Jimei said angrily: "The ordnances left in Taizhou Prefecture... were also detained by Prefect Tan."
Qian Yuan sneered and said, "Are all spears lengthened?"
"It's all lengthened, and the soldiers practiced daily." Lu Bin pointed to the soldiers sitting cross-legged on the school ground. "It's heavier than the previous spear and spear, and it's not very good at hand. It needs to be practiced more."
Qian Yuan nodded, "Even if the Yiwu soldiers who just arrived, there are only more than a thousand soldiers, they still have to recruit new soldiers."
"It's time after the New Year." Lu Bin explained: "I chose Jinhua Prefecture, which is close to Taizhou, and Chuzhou Prefecture, but there is not enough recruitment of troops."
"I am afraid that the government office will not pay much money, and it still needs to be allocated by the Governor's Office. I don't know when the next battle will be... This matter cannot be delayed." Hou Jigao smiled and said, "This matter must be carried out."
"Planning for me?" Qian Yuan laughed and said, "Okay, okay, you are willing to be plotted against this time."
Qian Yuan walked into the schoolyard with a smile, and saw familiar faces at first glance. The soldiers had already seen Qian Yuan, who led them to defeat the Japanese twice, had already become turbulent.
On that day, Qian Yuan rode his horse in front of the formation, shouting loudly and killing deserters left a deep impression on them. After the war, he distributed pensions, rewarded silver, made promises, and was fair and selfless... In a word, Qian Yuan had a higher prestige than Lu Tong and Hou Jigao in the army.
"You are Tian Qi." Qian Yuan pointed to a young man with a childish face. He was from Yanzhou. He killed six Japanese pirates in the Changshui Town victory. He followed Lu Bin to charge forward in the Tongxiang victory. He wore three destructions and did not retreat. He killed seven Japanese again. He was the leader in the army.
Tian Qi is a medicinal name, so it impressed Qian Yuan very much... Of course, Tian Qi has not yet been published, and he has to wait until Li Shizhen compiled the "Compendium of Materia Medica".
Qian Yuan held Tian Qi who knelt down and bowed, "Have you healed?"
Tian Qi grinned and patted his chest, "It's been a long time ago, and he's still thinking about the Japanese pirates' heads!"
"I remember you exchanged more than 200 taels of silver and could build a house and buy land to marry a wife. Do you still dare to kill the Japanese? "
Tian Qihei's purple face turned red suddenly, and he knelt down on one knee and whispered: "Her father passed the message half a month ago, and he killed all the Japanese pirates before returning home!"
"Well said." Qian Yuan nodded, "Kill all the Japanese pirates before returning home!"
"Kill all the Japanese pirates and then return home!"
Everyone around was clamoring, and the chaotic voices gradually became tidy. The soldiers shouted at the top of their lungs: "Kill all the Japanese pirates and return home!"
