On the second day of September, Wang Sheng hurriedly left the old camp in Dalanshan early in the morning. Some things cannot be relied on his confidants alone, and he himself must run to achieve results.

At the same time, Chu Jiuru came to the central army hall. After Wang Yi retreated from the left and right, he had a secret conversation with him for a long time before he let him leave.

After Chu Jiuru left, Wang Yi sent someone to call Chen Wen. After Chen Wen arrived at the central army hall, Wang Yi mentioned to him the letter that Feng Jingdi sent Wang Sheng to deliver to him yesterday.

Because of going to Japan to beg for the army, Chen Wen has always had a bad sense of Feng Jingdi. Although the current situation is naturally that the more troops the better, he still couldn't be interested when he recalled Wang Sheng's beloved soldiers. However, knowing that Feng Jingdi and Wang Yi were very close friends, Chen Wen couldn't say anything. He just asked who the rebel leaders of Feng Jingdi usually had, but he had never heard of the name in the answer Wang Yi had.

Fortunately, Chen Wen also knew that the anti-Qing movement in the Southern Ming Dynasty was not an isolated case, but a national movement. Not to mention it in other places, there are hundreds of righteous teachers in the eastern Zhejiang area.

Historical books record that "Zhejiang Yishi was extremely numerous, with more than 600 people of various sizes. The lonely villages and far-off forts were also built. The capital was built in the sea, and no one was stingy. Zhoushan's governor had more than 100 people, which was the power to protect the mountain villages. The army was defeated and died, and Zhoushan was also destroyed. The surnames and deeds were lost. Those who could pass on the post may not be detailed, so they were recognized." From now on, it is not a false statement.

Thinking of this way, it would be normal. Just like the two reinforcements mentioned by Wang Yi, namely Wang Shanchang and Zhang Qincheng, who were stationed in Kuaiji Mountain area, these two names Chen Wen had no impression, but in Wang Yi's mouth, although the strength of these two rebel troops was not very large, their combat effectiveness was still quite good.

Chief Wang Shan was appointed as the general of the mighty general, and was once the general of Zheng Zunqian, and now he is stationed in Kuaiji Mountain. It is said that this man was in battle and was brave enough. Tian Xiong once led the army to encircle and suppress him, but there was no way to deal with him. However, Wang Yi and Chen Wen were not very clear. In history, this man had participated in Zhang Mingzhen and Zhang Huangyan's attack on Chongming after the Battle of Zhoushan. It is said that his performance was quite brave.

Unlike the muscular general Wang Shanchang, Zhang Qincheng was a Dusi before the fall of the Ming Dynasty. He was a serious general. After the Qing army advanced south, he followed the Grand Secretary Sun Jiaji and was responsible for commanding the firearms troops. After the collapse of the Jiangshu, he once lost his life in the world. Later, Wang Yi and others managed the mountain village in eastern Zhejiang, so he raised his troops again, called the Kushan Army, and stationed in Nanzhen.

One of these two Ming troops is praised for hand-to-hand combat, while the other one is good at using firearms. In Wang Yi's opinion, as long as they can cooperate with Wujian, they will definitely put more pressure on the Shaoxing Green Camp. After all, the place where their garrison is not too far from Shaoxing Prefecture City.

Although Chen Wen still maintained a skeptical attitude because of his strangeness, he had no choice. As a time traveler, he was clear about the trend of history and other aspects of the overall situation, but in these details, he was far less than indigenous people like Wang Yi.

However, Chen Wen still had a secret worry about Feng Jingdi's familiarity with him. However, because Wang Yi was quite confident about Feng Jingdi's character and Feng Jingdi's familiarity, Chen Wen did not dare to say anything. After all, he just twisted the boss's intentions, and his plan to send troops to Jinhua might be affected.

Besides, since Tian Xiong and Jin Li did not spend much effort to wipe out the anti-Qing armed forces in the entire Simingshan area in history, in Chen Wen's opinion, if we want to rewrite history, it should be better to carry these rebels into a group and face the Qing army head-on than to be defeated in history.

So, Chen Wen didn't say anything else, just pretended that he had agreed to Feng Jingdi's action, and then said goodbye and returned to the camp to continue training.

Half an hour ago, when Chu Jiuru returned home, he was just preparing to set off, but his clan brother Chu Suxian, who was supposed to be recuperating at home, suddenly visited him and could only delay a while.

Chu Jiuru has always felt a little sorry for this clan brother.

Since Chu Jiuru began to follow Wang Yi, he brought this clan brother from the accountant family together, which has been counted for many years. Two years ago, Dalan Mountain was established, Wang Yi and Wang Jiang completely divided the labor and established the Five Battalions to manage the entire Dalan Mountain Ming Army. In two years, there were only the Central Camp and there were no military generals in the Five Battalions, and Chen Dianlun and Zou Xiaonan were acting as agents; among the Five Departments, there were only the Treasury Department who had no person in charge, but Wang Jiang was in charge.

Chu Jiuru knew very well why Wang Jiang was like this. Although the Treasury Department was only the yamen responsible for managing warehouse reserves, except for the food and clothing and military supplies of the Ming army in Dalanshan Mountain, all of which were consumed by distribution departments were stored here. It was a department that was related to the life and death of the entire system, and it was absolutely necessary to lose money. Wang Jiang had always been in charge of this department in the past two years, and he was just a matter of reassurance that these in-service officials, and these people, even his clan brother Chu Suxian, were indeed not worth reassurance in Chu Jiuru's opinion.

In the Chengping era, it was normal for officials to embezzle and accept bribes. Emperor Gao relied on skinning and filling in grass to eliminate the administration of the government for more than 30 years, but it was just a matter of death. Later, a sea of ​​Hai Rui was born, and he could be strict with himself and treat others strictly, but that was all. Except for Hai Rui, there was no change in what others should be like. Even those Donglin Party members who claimed to be honest actually looked like behind their backs. Chu Jiuru also heard about what they were like behind their backs.

From ancient times to the present, officials have always been corrupt, and few are not corrupt. After living for decades, he has seen through it. But the question is, is this the era of peace?!

After Jiashen, the Tartars broke through the pass and entered, and in a few years it had become a force to sweep the world. China was about to perish the Tartars again after the fall of the Song Dynasty. It also shaved its hair and changed its clothes, trying to destroy the Han Dynasty's clothing and clothing civilization. At this moment, it was the time when the Han Dynasty men were striving for strength. Only in this way can they preserve the clothing and clothing culture, how could they be like in peacetime?

For this reason, Chu Jiuru didn't know how many times he persuaded his brother, but he still did it. But he also knew that this corruption has been like this for a long time and he couldn't solve it. Even if his brother was cheering up, he might not dare to do anything. After all, it was a matter of offending his colleagues, not to mention that his brother had no intention of doing so.

After Sun Yu went up the mountain, the newcomer gave a breeze to the officialdom of the old camp in Dalanshan. On the night when Sun Yu was promoted to Ambassador of Ku, Chu Jiuru had a deep conversation with his clan brother, but since then, he never mentioned this again, until yesterday he returned to Dalanshan.

After spending half a month outside, he finally returned to the old camp. The first news he heard was that his clan brother was beaten in public by Chen Wen, who was recently appointed commander of Nantang camp because he wanted to embezzle military pay. He was filled with comfort from Wang Yi and Wang Jiang. In addition to being angry at the domineering of the new general, Chu Jiuru felt a little happy about it. This made him feel very guilty when he recalled it, guilty of treating him with great clan uncle in his early years, and also guilty of chasing his clan brother who had been chasing his butt since he was a child.

When he came back from the central army hall today, Chu Jiuru had originally followed Wang Yi's military order to persuade several Ming troops to have a good relationship with Dalanshan to participate in the anti-encirclement and suppression of the Qing army this month, but Chu Suxian's arrival changed his mind, and it was not too late to comfort him first and then leave. However, after Chu Suxian got to the point, he was still surprised.

"Brother, I am really obsessed with the past few years. It is really not necessary to do so many things that I am sorry for Zhengluan and Deputy Xian. More importantly, I have never taken my words seriously over the years. I think I am really ashamed of my brother's long-term care these days."

As he said that, Chu Suyi suddenly knelt down in front of Chu Jiuru, which scared him very much. Chu Jiuru quickly helped his brother up, but his surprised expression still couldn't fade away.

"In the past few days, whenever I think of this, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep or eat, and felt even more guilty. A few days ago, I had some conflicts with Chen Guerrilla. At first, I was very angry, but after reflecting these days, I actually had it, so it's no wonder Chen Guerrilla..."

Chu Jiuru looked at his clan brother Chu Suxian in amazement, and watched him telling his mistakes repeatedly, and even burst into tears after saying that he even used his uninjured left hand to slap himself in the mouth.

Seeing this, Chu Jiuru quickly stopped this self-harm behavior, but even so, Chu Suxian was still blaming himself and not at all dissuaded.

"...The state is so happening now. My country is in danger. There are many loyal ministers and righteous men who have destroyed their families and made the country. But I am still greedy for those small profits. I really let down the trust of the two Shangguans and their brothers..."

The words Chu Suxian said were actually what Chu Jiuru had said to him, so it was particularly acceptable to Chu Jiuru. Listening to his brother's repentance so much, the original pleasure was gone. After all, it was brothers from the same clan who broke the bones and tendons. Since his brothers knew they were wrong, the rest was resentment towards the perpetrator.

"... I have thought about it. When the injury heals, I will say goodbye to the two Shangguans. Leaving Dalan Mountain, I will face the two Shangguans and brothers again without any face."

Hearing this, Chu Jiuru quickly persuaded his clan brother that he had said all the truths that he knew that he could improve his mistakes, but he still couldn't stop Chu Su's idea of ​​leaving first. Finally, he had to tell him that he was about to leave and discuss what he had to do when he came back, so that he would temporarily persuade him, who seemed extremely stubborn at this moment.

When Chu Suxian learned that Chu Jiuru still had official duties, Chu Suxian hurriedly left. On the way home, Chu Suxian's face no longer had the guilty look on his face, but only the satisfaction and pleasure of the evil plan.

Isn’t it more likely to turn regret into hatred? Chen Wen, this is a trick you used in ancient times. This time, this official is to fight for tooth and blood for blood.

……………………

Ten days later, Chu Jiuru arrived at Wu Kuiming's village, the largest Ming army in Fenghua area, and this was his last stop on this trip.

After the guest and host took the seat, Chu Jiuru mentioned Wang Yi's request. In response, Wu Kuiming immediately expressed that he would follow Wang Jingluo's plan and would never dare to let down his entrusting.

In Chu Jiuru's opinion, this result was very normal. Two years ago, the Ningbo Green Camp sent troops to encircle Wu Kuiming on a large scale. Wu Kuiming fled at that time. It was Wang Yi who personally led the army to defeat the Qing army, so he could save his life and status. Therefore, even though the two places were far apart, the exchanges between the two armies were never cut off.

During this period, Wu Kuiming always regarded Wang Yi as the leader of the rebel army in the Simingshan area, and several rebel army members with close friends defended the southern part of Simingshan; and Wang Yi also sent Mao Mingshan's back camp to station in the southern part of Simingshan facing the Qing army in Fenghua, thinking that it was the backing of Wu Kuiming and other troops.

The two sides have been supporting each other for many years, and this concerted action is normal. However, Wu Kuiming's next problem still makes Chu Jiuru a little strange.

"Master Chu, I heard that Wang Jingliu recently established a new battalion of a new military household who came here, named Nantang. Is there anything wrong?"

This is not the first time Chu Jiuru has heard others ask about this. Even in the past ten days, almost every leader of the rebel army would ask about it, which made him feel quite strange. After careful consideration, Chen Wen's Nantang Camp was formed and easily defeated the Central Camp in a month in the school competition. When he first learned about it, he felt incredible, let alone other people.

“That’s right.”

"Then, I heard that this Nantang Camp army seemed to have defeated the old camp soldiers who were ten times more than him in the school competition in one month, but do you take it seriously?"

ten times?

This is too exaggerated to spread rumors.

"Marrior Wu, the lower magistrate was not on the mountain at that time. Later, I heard Wang Jinglue mention this matter. According to Wang Jinglue, it was like this at that time..."

Then, Chu Jiuru told Wu Kuiming about the details of the entire school competition, which not only corrected the military strength comparison between the two sides in the third game, but also emphasized that the second game of the central camp actually won one. In addition, it also mentioned that Chen Wen used Qi Jiguang to train troops and claimed to rebuild the Qi family army.

However, Chu Jiuru said so much, but looking at Wu Kuiming's appearance, he didn't seem to believe it very much.

"I'll ask you a rude question. I heard that this new general seems to have some conflicts with Lingdi, but that's the case?"

This question has not been mentioned before. After all, if you hit someone, you don’t slap someone in the face, or you don’t reveal your shortcomings, maybe he is too familiar with Wu Kuiming, so he will ask about it.

"It is true that Chen Guerrilla is young and arrogant, and his son is arrogant. He has something wrong with his brother, just a trivial matter." Chu Jiuru suppressed the displeasure in his heart and answered Wu Kuiming's question.

"So that's true." Wu Kuiming frowned and thought for a while, then said, "I'm not hiding the matter of Chief Chu, this matter was also told by other generals. They knew that I was familiar with Chief Chu, so I specially used my mouth to confirm it."

"oh."

Then it seems that there should be some more things to do.

"I'll say something I shouldn't say. This army has its own laws. This man holds strong soldiers and is so domineering will only make the generals uneasy. It's not good for war. I'm afraid..." Wu Kuiming hesitated for a moment, and still expressed his thoughts with those who mentioned this matter to him.

"I'm afraid I'll be domineering and difficult to control in the future, which will be a major concern for the court."

Wu Kuiming's words aroused Chu Jiuru's deep thoughts. Even after saying goodbye to leave Wu Kuiming's village, he was still thinking about this matter.

Previously, both Wang Yi and Wang Jiang mentioned that although Chen Wen was very talented, he still needed to be more useful. If it seemed from today that it was a consensus among people of knowledge, then he should explain to the two Shangguans that even if this person had hatred with his clan brothers, he could not allow him to cause greater damage and ruin national affairs.

Chu Jiuru, who had decided to go to Dalan Mountain quickly, and at this time, the confidant Wang Sheng sent first had already returned to Xueao.

"What do you say over there?"

"Master Tian said that as long as this matter can be accomplished, he will definitely ask Governor Chen for the Master."

"Well done, but you must not mention this matter to others."
Chapter completed!
