Chapter 1075 Horse hair shrinks like a hedgehog (continued)

When Jing Xiang, who was still a little dizzy and incredible, walked out of the Daming Palace in the North Nei again, he was already the new Foreign Affairs Department of the Taiping Grand Governor's Office and a plenipotent representative of the pedestrian department; and compared with the 23rd level middle-level official/general rank threshold, he received corresponding basic treatment.

Of course, this is just a starting point for him. The corresponding identity and treatment will gradually improve with his performance and results. After all, compared with Li Zhen and others who were inevitably a little discouraged by Zhu Laosan's determination to be low and small in the Taiping Army, he was still young and not very willing to be a nameless person.

It is even more irresistible to resist the possibility of making achievements in the new era and becoming famous. Especially the conditions raised by the great governor in person. Although it is a bit abrupt and shocking, it is also the result that he cannot refuse. Otherwise, he would feel that something bad would happen, and he would also implicate his old benefactor (Zhu Laosan).

So he could only comfort himself and calm his mood, and that this was just to live up to his old benefactor's intention to recommend it to him; at the same time, he also responded to the new dynasty's extra love; therefore, he could only do his best to complete the mission to the north of the mission and then make plans.

The task given to him by the lord of the new dynasty was very simple, but it was also very vague and empty; it was just to let him play freely or do his best, no matter what means and methods he used, and to make the forces outside the border chaotic;

One of the only minimum task bottom lines that get the prompt is to make some trouble for the Khitan divisions in the Songmo Governor's Office, so that they can't take care of themselves for a period of time. The upper limit for completing tasks is completely unrestricted.

Although I don’t know how those Khitans, who have a little reputation in the history of the national dynasty, got involved in the new dynasty lord; but obviously that person still cares a lot.

, and he promised that he would do the corresponding homework and preparation before going on a mission, and thought that it would be a perfect way.

This includes the urgently needed materials outside the Great Wall and the cover of ready-made caravans. They can find the information and records he needs in all the books and files in Chang'an City, and even personally select and recruit some of the corresponding rights and interests of the accompanying personnel.

Therefore, Jingxiang was so full of thought that he was filled with vague expectations, and he was inevitably led to the Neicao Office established in the Dongge/Bachelor's College. He received the corresponding self-defense seals and other items, and embarked on a commuter carriage specializing in official pickup.

However, when his carriage came to the near Xingqing Palace, the fourth street in the east of Zhuque Street (the second street in the east of Huangcheng) Street from the north of the fourth fang; in front of the west gate of Shengyefang (named because there is Shengye Temple in the southwest corner), the former Honglu Temple belonging to the Great Concierge Courtyard (Neifan) and Sifang Pavilion (Wiyi) were located, he crossed the archway and did not enter.

Then he continued to walk towards the neighboring Yongjiafang with horse hooves, and saw that he had crossed Xiucini Temple, Ganluni Temple, and Yang Quying's house. He turned to the northwest corner and passed through the street between the ancient Xue Wang's house and Ning Wangshan Pond Courtyard. Jingxiang couldn't help but ask:

"I dare to ask the driver, have you gone to the wrong place... Xiaoke's residence is in the big lecture hall..."

“It’s not wrong,”

The driver outside the curtain in front said in a deep voice:

"Sir, since the sir has taken the responsibilities of the governor's office, the official residence in which the great lectures are located seems to be too crowded and cannot be purified. Therefore, I also asked Zheng Huajinzouyuan, near the Prison Temple, to stay at the office of Zheng Huajinzouyuan, so that I can investigate documents and recruit people nearby, and I will be transferred here later."

"Since that's the case, then I'll have a hard time..."

Jing Xiang was stunned when he heard this and smiled bitterly again. It seemed that the Lord of Peace was really a decisive and decisive manner. But in this way, the importance and key of his errand work lies in the so-called Dingyuan and Zhang Bowang's story were not just a word of encouragement.

However, the next moment when he crossed several carriages across the streets and turned to the northwest corner of Xingqing Palace, Jing Xiang, who had just relaxed, suddenly stood up again. He pushed aside a corner of the curtains in disbelief, and said in a voice:

"Can the driver slow down for one or two? I feel dizzy when I have some summer symptoms..."

Then, as the gradually slowing down carriage window lifted a corner, Jing Xiang finally confirmed that the familiar figure that seemed to be similar and familiar from the familiar ones that slowly came from Tonghua Gate along with many large ox and donkey carts loaded with firewood and firewood charcoal was not his illusion.

As his former colleague and senior, one of the right-hand counselors under the command of Zhu San, the former director of the Dogi-do Department, Li Zhen, a Kyoto native who claimed to be the great-grandson of Li Baozhen, a former hero of the revival in the previous generation, rode a mule in a short brown scarf and slowly crossed the street by a servant.

You should know that although Jing Xiang is a new and old minister who is a vaguely competitive, his relationship with him is pretty good in private. Before he bid farewell to Chang'an, because the future is uncertain and the situation is still unclear, Jing Xiang was drunk with him and said many honest words...

Among them, Li Zhen, as a senior, could not hide his disheartened desire to leave. He clearly stated that after assisting the former master in completing the purging and cleaning of Doki Province, he would take the initiative to retire, thinking that he would avoid suspicion and get rid of the subsequent right and wrong.

The reason is also very simple, because his relatives, relying on their power over the years, have occupied a lot of fertile land and beautiful houses in the territory of Dogi Province. In the future, they are afraid that they will not be able to see the Taiping Army, let alone retain the corresponding power and wealth.

Therefore, even if the left-behind person expressed his intention to protect their background and future for those who stayed behind in the end, he was too embarrassed to accept it because his family was too burdened.

You should know that in order to purify the military law and sacrificial local area, the left-behind adult thought that he had the sincerity of subsequent settlements; even several heads of the personal soldiers who had been with him for many years, or their cousins ​​and in-laws, were killed to serve as a warning to others.

On the contrary, he envied Jing Xiang even more. He was alone in his prime. Therefore, he could pursue his future and fame again without any burden or involvement. Finally, Li Zhen sang a song by Qinglian's layman "The Road Is Difficult" with chopsticks to accompany him to the board to think that it was a far-reaching blessing.

"The golden cup is worth ten thousand wine, and the jade plate is worth ten thousand yuan. I can't eat it by stopping the cup and throwing the chopsticks. I draw my sword and look at me in a daze."

"It is difficult to walk, it is difficult to walk, and there are many misaligned roads. Where are you now? There will be times when the wind and waves are long, and the clouds sails are spreading across the sea."

Jingxiang still remembers how the other person with red eyes and sad faces were so moved that he hit the board hard and sang back and forth. Then, when he saw that he was weak, he suddenly fell on the desk and couldn't get up.

However, Li Zhen, who should have returned to his hometown to travel around the forest and spring, is there any secret to come to Chang'an now? Then Jing Xiang started to laugh at himself. Since he has already undertaken this task, why do these uncertain things cause trouble?

——I am the dividing line—

And under the city of Huatai in Huazhou, a chaotic and noisy battlefield is approaching its end.

Looking at the Wei Bojun flag slowly retreating at the Baima Mountain in the distance, holding a water-milled brass lens barrel with the head-up lines and nasolabial folds on his face deepening. Zhu Laosan, who seemed more majestic and deep, also sighed to the left and right:

"The Emperor of Chang'an, Wei Boya Bing, is really worthy of his reputation!"

"It is a blessing for these people to thank the Du Shuai; but they are still defeated by our army!"

A newly-received general next to him echoed:

"No, this is just a mere defeat, and it cannot touch the Wei army's roots..."

Zhu Laosan lowered the lens tube in his hand and said in a deep voice:

"It is necessary to know that even though he suffered repeated setbacks and Henan, he can still regroup and make a big move. Now, he has been attacked by his army and has reached this point, but he can still retreat from the beginning and end. This is not ordinary."

"That's handsome. Please ask me to lead the Feiyun Army (Mule Team) and chase him for another time..."

Immediately, another general, Hu Zhen, asked for his order:

"No, since the situation of the Wei army is still stable, we naturally cannot be anxious,"

Zhu Laosan waved his hand again and said:

"After all, Wei Bo's army came across a long river. The food routes they held in the rear were just bridges on the rivers. As long as they attacked and killed one by one, would they be afraid that these people would not be able to fight to the decisive battle?"

"Try to play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses, and strive to give full play to our geographical advantages and harmony; we must also avoid being attacked and taken advantage of by the enemy; you can attack and seize one place first, and accumulate many small victories to make great victories. This is the lasting way for our army to fight the enemy...

While Zhu Laosan was talking, he saw a general trot and shouting loudly:

"Du Shuai, the subsequent firearms, medicines and grain equipment have been sent to Lingchangjin (north of Yanjin County, Henan Province) along the river."

"Okay, that's great..."

Zhu Laosan couldn't help but applaud. Although after he decided to turn to the Taiping Army in full, he lost the feeling of being in power and killing and robbing him for a while, he felt so empty of loss and anxiety in his heart.

However, after getting used to the territory and food, food and machinery in the rear, and just need to concentrate on using troops and save trouble and worry-freely, it feels a different feeling in my heart.

At least we don’t have to worry about the rear and retreat, and worry about the possible insufficient food and salary supply and rewards; we whispered the rich surnames and prominent families in those places, and worked hard to deal with them.

It can be said that with the subsequent operation of the Taiping Army entering Dogi Province, almost a large amount of materials and equipment were continuously transported forward, filling one grain institute after another along the way.

Even the treatment, transportation and resettlement of the wounded, and the burning and burial of the dead soldiers were all supported by Zhang Juyan from the rear. And for the first time, the Duji Army realized the feeling of letting go of their hands and feet without stinging with manpower and material resources to fight a war.

For example, before the two armies were in battle, they used firearms to break up each other, disrupting the opponent's array, and then attacked and broke into the front with the horse army. The mule team ran around and detoured and restrained and harassed, attacked and seized the baggage; when the enemy was unable to take care of the enemy's hands, the main force team pushed up in one fell swoop.
