People feel refreshed when happy events occur.

In addition, with the arrival of spring, the ice on the sea surface melts, making travel smoother, making people feel more comfortable physically and mentally.

Li Yuanqing and the imperial court's messenger arrived at Guanglu Island almost immediately.

Chen Zhong knew that Li Yuanqing must have received the news first and had been waiting at the old camp early. Although the two brothers had only been separated for a few days, they gave each other a warm hug when they met.

Chen Zhong laughed and said, "Yuan Qing, why are you hearing the magpies chirping this morning? I didn't expect the imperial court to be so fast."

Li Yuanqing knew that the imperial court's reward was only one aspect of Chen Zhong's happiness, so he couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother, sister-in-law, is it coming soon?"

Chen Zhong laughed and couldn't hide his joy at all, "It's probably less than a month away. Yuan Qing, fortunately Yun Niang and Min Qiu have been a big help, otherwise, my brother would really be in a hurry."

Li Yuanqing is a mud-legged person, but he is a time traveler after all, and he still has some knowledge and experience from later generations. But Chen Zhong is a pure mud-legged person with upright roots. If Li Yuanqing hadn't changed history, I'm afraid, he might not be the best in this life.

He can't even taste the taste of a woman, let alone leave any descendants.

At this time, although the conditions on Guanglu Island were not too bad, Chen Zhong's wife Chunniang, after all, was the spoiled canary of a wealthy family, and she could not adapt to the simple conditions of the camp, especially because she was very weak.

It is more obvious after pregnancy.

If Qu Minqiu hadn't brought back two experienced old doctors from Guangning to help Chun Niang take good care of her body, and Zhang Yunniang and Qu Minqiu would often go to Chun Niang to keep her company and calm her mood, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Li Yuanqing chuckled, "Brother, what difference do we have between brothers? If my sister-in-law helps me give birth to a nephew, he will be my eldest son-in-law. If I give birth to a little girl, she will be my eldest daughter-in-law."

Chen Zhong laughed loudly, "Yuan Qing, it's a deal."

Li Yuanqing laughed and high-fived Chen Zhong as an oath.

In the Jiubianjiangmen Group of the Ming Dynasty, the relationship between in-laws and relatives is complicated, but it is also the most important link between them.

Li Yuanqing does not reject this kind of thing either.

Even in later generations, being a good match is the most important prerequisite for a marriage relationship.

Chen Zhong is handsome, tall and majestic, and Chun Niang is also charming and charming. With the genes here, and the relationship between Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, no matter whether the child is a boy or a girl, he will not wrong Li Yuanqing's son or daughter.

The two settled on this important matter while talking and laughing, which made their relationship even closer.

Chen Zhong had already prepared a table of delicious food and wine, and took Li Yuanqing to his residence.

But before the two of them sat down, news came from the soldiers that Zhang Pan from Lushun had just arrived.

The two met and smiled, and Chen Zhong chuckled and said, "Even Zhang Pan's temper can't be stabilized."

The two hurriedly went to welcome Zhang Pan.

Although Zhang Pan had some minor dissatisfaction with Li Yuanqing before, after the Battle of the Ferry, Zhang Pan had already admired Li Yuanqing. When the three brothers met, they didn't talk much and went straight to the wine table to have a chat.

Dry.

The meal lasted from early evening until late at night, and all three of them were extremely drunk and enjoying themselves to the fullest.

At noon the next day, the three of them took a boat together and went straight to Phi Island.

At this time, the entire collapse of Guangning was an unbearable pain for the Ming Dynasty, but for Mao Wenlong's tribes, especially the three tribes of Li Yuanqing, Zhang Pan, and Chen Zhong in southern Liaoning, it was an excellent opportunity to breathe.

.

The reason why Lao Nu was desperate to capture Guangning was because the changes in the Mongolian ministries to the west had made him unable to sit still.

How could Lin Dan Khan, who came from the golden family, submit to an old slave who was born as a barbarian?

Tens of thousands of his tribe are building their troops deep in the grassland, gearing up, ready to grab the old slave by his pigtails and give him a hard blow.

The fall of Guangning also allowed Lao Nu to completely end his worries and have more energy to deal with Lin Danhan first.

During this period, as long as Mang Gurtai and Yue Tuo in southern Liaoning had not gone crazy with convulsions, there would have been no major wars among the three factions in a short period of time.

And as long as the main force of Lao Nu moves westward into Mongolia, there will be greater space for in-depth activities on the headquarters of Pi Dao Mao Wenlong.

Mao Wenlong's Ministry is ushering in the golden period of rapid development.

A real man can only make great achievements today.

In addition, with Hu Erhan's achievements in hand, Mao Wenlong and other ministries are in a great situation.

Li Yuanqing naturally had to seize this opportunity firmly.

Last time he went to Pi Island, because he was worried about internal coordination issues, Li Yuanqing did not stay too long on Pi Island and did not have an in-depth talk with Mao Wenlong. But this time, Li Yuanqing also had enough time to have a detailed discussion with Mao Wenlong about the future development of the headquarters.

direction.

Li Yuanqing and the others took an ordinary sand boat, but the imperial messenger took a fast boat from the Juehua Island Navy.

They arrived at Pi Island more than half a day earlier than Li Yuanqing and the others.

Mao Wenlong had already finished serving the court's messengers and went to the dock to greet Li Yuanqing and the others.

This made the other generals in the headquarters envious.

In the evening, Mao Wenlong held a grand banquet, which was attended by all ministries under his command and officers above the commander-in-chief.

Most of these people were old faces from Zhenjiang. Even if they didn't know each other, they were all familiar with Li Yuanqing.

At this time, Li Yuanqing, Chen Zhong, and Zhang Pan were already the undoubted pillars and leaders of Mao Wenlong's command.

Officers at all levels, as long as they felt their qualifications were high enough, came to toast the three of them.

Li Yuanqing would not refuse such favors.

Zhang Pan and Chen Zhong are basically the same.

They are all brothers. Even if their identities are different at this time, who can despise whom?

Another night of hangover.

At noon the next day, Li Yuanqing had the opportunity to have a quiet interview with Mao Wenlong.

Chen Zhong and Zhang Pan have not sobered up yet.

…………

Mao Wenlong's residence, Mao Wenlong and Li Yuanqing sit opposite each other.

The soldiers served fragrant tea to the two of them. This is a new tea produced in the Paektu Mountain area of ​​North Korea and North Korea. Although the workmanship is not very sophisticated, it has the breath of spring and the taste is extremely pure.

"Yuanqing, how do you like this tea?" Mao Wenlong looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile.

Li Yuanqing smiled and said, "It tastes good. Commander, there is still something to be said for North Korea."

Mao Wenlong smiled lightly, "I still miss the Longjing New Leaf in my hometown."

Li Yuanqing nodded.

With Mao Wenlong's shrewdness, how could he not see that the small country of North and South Korea would never be able to support an army of more than 10,000 people, and the size of the army was still growing.

However, looking at this, Mao Wenlong seems to have placed all his hopes on the three of him going to Beijing to meet the saint. This...

Li Yuanqing paused for a moment, not knowing how to speak.

People will always change.

Although Mao Wenlong was still wise and resolute in his eyes at this time, Li Yuanqing could see that his inner self-confidence was also growing.

In the past, people like Li Yuanqing still called Mao Wenlong the previous title, "general". But now, when they were at the beach, even Zhang Pan called Mao Wenlong "marshal". Mao Wenlong did not feel any strange and accepted it happily.

Li Yuanqing could only change his tune.

Ordinarily, according to Mao Wenlong's status at this moment, it is not inappropriate to be called "Commander". However, the imperial court has not issued the title of Mao Wenlong's headquarters after all.

At last night's banquet, Li Yuanqing got news from Zhang Pan that Mao Wenlong had written to the court, hoping to upgrade Pi Dao Mao Wenlong's headquarters to "Pingliao Town" and himself be promoted to the rank of Commander-in-Chief of Pingliao.

But the imperial court seemed to have some different opinions and refused to let go.

When Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty achieved great success, Zhu Sheng, an important counselor under his command, once put forward a world-famous slogan, 'Build walls high, accumulate grain widely, and become king slowly'.

Zhu Yuanzhang had already occupied Yingtian (today's Nanjing), as well as a large area of ​​land south of the Yangtze River and north of the Yangtze River. He still did not claim the kingship and kept a low profile. He first killed the bandit leader Chen Youliang, then the salt dealer Zhang Shicheng, and then the Fang brothers, thus completing the process.

The cornerstone of our great cause.

But at this time, the career of Mao Wenlong's headquarters was just starting to go smoothly, and it had not yet completely established itself and taken root. Mao Wenlong had this kind of "Qian Gang dictatorship" sign. This~~~, this made Li Yuanqing

The feeling is very bad.

As the ancients said, the first bird will be shot.

Mao Wenlong is good at everything and can listen to what others say, but his temperament is still a bit too headstrong.

Especially in this time of smooth sailing...

Of course Mao Wenlong noticed the changes in Li Yuanqing. He took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Yuanqing, I brought you here with my own hands. I am very happy that you are here today. Although you and I are superiors and subordinates, we are still under my control."

In my heart, I have already regarded you as my nephew. Yuan Qing, is there anything else that cannot be said between you and me?"

Li Yuanqing nodded heavily, "The Marshal's kindness to Yuan Qing will always be remembered by Yuan Qing."

Mao Wenlong was very satisfied with Li Yuanqing's attitude and smiled lightly, "Yuan Qing, what do you think about the direction of each department's strategy after spring?"

Li Yuanqing thought for a moment and said slowly: "Commander, the loss of Guangning is a heavy loss for the imperial court. But for our army, it is an opportunity."

Li Yuanqing said, looking into Mao Wenlong's eyes.
