Chapter four hundred and ninety-ninth this is going to be dangerous, the duty of a soldier

If you put a large amount of money in Tianjin Wei to earn profits and interest, you will always feel a little worried. You will feel much more at ease when you hear that Wang Tong has to invest one million taels.

Although Wang Tong can withdraw money at any time in Tianjin Wei, it is always a guarantee. Everyone pays money with shares, and he pays more than mine. I believe he is even more willing to accompany money. People are always used to thinking like this.

However, what Wang Tong valued the most was the saying, "If Brother Wang has anything to do in the capital, just speak up." After making so much money on his side and having this seemingly polite promise, it actually means that in the capital, or at least the families who invested money on the capital, are on his side.

Since Wang Tong entered the officialdom, his most helpless thing was to be isolated and helpless. Although his backer was today, the emperor still needed him to help the auspicious support, and there were not many helps each other.

Whenever there is any storm in the court against oneself, it is often one-sided. Few people talk about themselves. Now Chen Sibao and others will at least remain silent. Even if they want to take sides, they should think about the huge amount of money they have placed in Tianjin Wei.

The mutton was crispy and delicious, and it was full of joy at noon that day. Chen Sibao and the others also knew that Wang Tong was busy, so they thanked and said goodbye after picking the horses.

The silver and other things have arrived in Tianjin. There are also twelve accounting offices and managers who come with this sum. The noble families have taken out the silver and sent people to watch it.

Wang Tong welcomed this. Although Sanjiang Money House was newly built, it was no less important than the insurance bank. However, there was no way to draw too many skilled and available personnel. The other party sent someone to make up for the shortcomings. As for whether he was obedient, Wang Tong paid more capital just to speak to the sky.

Wang Tong said that the important thing was that he could not drink alcohol, but Chen Sibao and others stubbornly drank half a bowl of wine. They all left. Wang Tong closed his eyes on the side of the horse farm and recovered slightly.

Seeing the person leaving, Ma Sanbiao came over. Wang Tong opened his eyes and asked:

"How many cavalrymen are you able to use now?"

"If you go back to the master, you can count them everywhere, and you can almost get four hundred riders."

Among the security guards and even among the hull-headed people, there are some young and strong people who know equestrianism. These people, Wang Tong, can be conquered when necessary, and they are naturally included.

"The matter that you asked you to go to each camp to investigate should come out today, right?"

"The people who can make money on the horse now are now in the horse team, and the two regiments can't sit on the horse and fall about 520 people.

Hearing Ma Sanbiao's report, Wang Tong shook his head, but this was helpless. In addition to horse-raised farmers, ordinary people could ride horses, but Ma Sanbiao spoke:

"Sir, when he was leading people to check the horse riding yesterday, he chatted with Chihei. He said that he needed good riders, but there were some on the grasslands. From Xuanfu to Jizhen, there were many dilapidated houses who could not stay on the grasslands. They grazed and farmed for people in Seneiguan to make a living, so adults could recruit them."

Wang Tong nodded and said after a while:

"This is also a way, but it will not be done next year. The third standard is not allowed to celebrate the New Year in Tianjin this year. Can you bear it?"

"If you are a sir, you are eating this kind of food. It's a small matter for the New Year."

Speaking of this, Ma Sanbiao scratched his head and continued with a chuckle:

"My wife is really not very happy, there is nothing we can do about this."

…………

I went out early in the morning and walked around the horse farm. But it was almost dark. Some people started hanging lanterns on the streets of Tianjin Wei.

When he returned to the door of the mansion, Wang Tong saw Xu Guangguo still kneeling there. When he saw Wang Tong and his group coming, he kowtowed again. Wang Tong ignored him and rode his horse into the door.

The door behind him was closed, and the left-behind personal guards came up to lead the horse. Wang Tong dismounted and asked:

"Did that person outside kneel for three days?"

"When I answered my lord, I did kneel for a day and didn't move."

Wang Tong nodded, walked towards the main hall, walked to the steps but turned around and said:

"Tomorrow the sun rises, and he will still kneel outside, so he will bring it in to help me!"

The dismount was quite far from the door, and the people outside the door couldn't hear it. The personal soldiers quickly bowed and agreed.

When he walked into the inner hall, a group of military generals and the officials were staring here. When he saw Wang Tong coming in, he stood up to respond.

Wang Tong glanced around, but saw Li Hu's face full of excitement, as if he had encountered something happy, and couldn't help but smile and asked:

"Thutou is so happy, what happy things have happened?"

Li Hutou was so excited that he wanted to open his mouth, but after thinking about it, he didn't know what to say, but Ma Sanbiao next to him said:

"My master came this time because Hutou is now the General Manager of the Group. The actual position of General Manager Qian is higher than his position as a Jinyiwei hundred household. He praised Hutou for his promising words, but he was not as good as jade."

The master mentioned by Ma Sanbiao is Li Wenyuan. Li Wenyuan has strict requirements for Li Hutou and he will scold him every time he meets him. But this time, Li Hutou commands a thousand five hundred soldiers, and the emperor issued an order to be an official, which is not an exaggeration to say that it is a glorious family and honoring ancestors. Li Wenyuan came with a secret order this time, and time was tight. It was important to stay with his son for a while, so he was still scrambling.

Li Wenyuan didn't scold him, and it was the first time he had treated Li Hutou for the first time, and he even praised him for a few words. This would definitely make Li Hutou even more excited.

When everyone heard Ma Sanbiao's statement, they were laughing with kindness. Li Tao and Sun Xin even patted Li Hu's head on the back.

Next, after joking, Yang Sichen, who was standing beside Wang Tong spoke about Sanjiang Money House. Yang Sichen hurriedly took the paper and wrote down, and tomorrow he would let the insurance bank and Sanjiang Business Company handle the matter.

"What the Ministry of War means, this time we will let us leave the Gubei exit of the Miyun rear guard in the north of the capital, pass Tongzhou and walk to Shunyi and Huairou. We are not familiar with the place and it is inconvenient to obtain supplies. Tomorrow, we will send a quick horse to Xuanfu and ask the Sanjiang Trading Company there to go to buy and hoard supplies first and prepare for the army to use it."

Everyone sat down, Wang Tong said instructing, Cai Nan nodded quickly and wrote a few strokes on the document. The second group of Vice Li Tao pondered for a while, stood up and bowed to report:

"Sir, my father has acquaintances with the Miyun Guard in Yanqing Prefecture. How about military preparations? Why not write a letter to go home and ask the family to help with the help of military personnel?"

Everyone looked at Li Tao, but they nodded. Li Yun came to the deputy general of Xuanfu, and preparing military supplies would definitely be much easier than these Sanjiang Commercial Banks. It is naturally convenient for everyone to write this letter.

Unexpectedly, Wang Tong shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"Li Tao, you have good intentions, but we are the imperial guards. Don't have any connection with the border troops in this kind of military affairs. You are very taboo about this matter."

Hearing this, everyone was filled with awesomeness. The imperial guards had too many relationships with the border towns. If there was a suspicion in the court, it would be a disaster.

After a while, Tan Bing coughed and stood up, speaking in a stern voice:

"Sir, the decree said that the Huwei Army has been out of the northern entrance since ancient times. If the subordinates remember correctly, the Halahetao is only 200 miles away from the northern entrance, and the cavalry will arrive in one day and one night."

The Halahetao is the intersection of Mohe and Yixunhe, which is 180 miles northeast of Gubeikou. It is also the stronghold where the so-called rebel generals of Altan's tribe are located.

"Sir, when my brothers followed Mr. Zhun, they also stayed in Jizhen. They knew the scene around the wall here. The sect's boats were used as secret spies. When the army passed the Miyun guards, they were afraid that the sect's captains on the grassland had already known the news..."

Speaking of this, Sun Xin paused, but said:

"Sir, at the beginning of the year, the Huwei Army killed thousands of Qingzi outside the Xuanfukou. These two places are not far away. Our Huwei Army is probably a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh. This time, the news leaked out is bound to happen. If Qingzi teams come, wouldn't we be dangerous?"

After saying that, the room became quiet. Sun Xin had always been steadfast and taciturn. After saying so much this time, he couldn't help feeling a little nervous when he saw everyone watching him. He lowered his head and said:

"I have a little superficial opinion. If there is any mistake, I hope you will forgive me!"

"That's right. You guys still learned something in the martial arts hall in Tianjin."

Wang Tong nodded in approval, praised him, and said at this time:

"Master, the secret decree clearly stated that our army was leaving the middle route, Lord Li Rusong and Li led the Xuanfu border army out of the west route, Lord Qi led the Jizhen troops out of the east route, our army and Xuanfu border army as auxiliary, and Jizhen troops as the main force, but Xuanfu soldiers were about 500 miles away from Halahetao, and Jizhen was also the same. According to the detailed calculations of that day, if our army entered the border alone.

The sect leader had nearly 6,000 cavalry in his hands, and Korqin was also the majority. It was easy to dispatch thousands of cavalry. Our army included only more than 4,000 auxiliary soldiers. Such a huge gap was really dangerous."

The quietness in the house this time was real, and the comparison of numbers was the most intuitive. When I entered the grassland, I had to face tens of thousands of cavalrymen who were captured.

"Since it is the army of the Ming Dynasty, going out to the frontier to kill the Tartars is our duty."

When everyone was worried about Zhongzhong, Wang Tong spoke calmly and without any fear.

Military affairs are of great importance. From preparations everywhere, to marching on the road, and even the types of food and grass supply, we have to discuss in detail. This is a secret matter. Not many people can participate, but it has been a mess that Yang Sichen and Cai Nan were too busy. They both listened and remembered while talking, and their wrists were sore.

When the window paper was white, everyone had reached a passage. Everyone in the room couldn't help but yawn with their mouths, and everyone's eyes were red. Wang Tong rubbed his face with his hands and said:

"Let the kitchen prepare breakfast for you. After eating, we will stare at our own stall. I will check it again today."

After saying that, everyone stood up to salute, said goodbye and went out. It was already dawn. Wang Tong closed his eyes slightly, and his personal soldiers brought a bowl of plain noodles and two plates of side dishes.

Wang Tong stood up and stretched his waist. He was about to move his chopsticks, but he heard from the personal soldiers outside:
Chapter completed!
