Chapter 96 Sworn Worship

Zhang Zongxian was not in a hurry to go to Jiazhou to take office. He had to wait for Qian Dianshi to deal with the officials before going, otherwise he would not be able to get anything done.

After all, he is no longer the county magistrate. He can see through a county. Now he is in charge of the territory of five counties. Until his disciples grow up, they will have to rely on these officials.

Since the appointment was issued, the pace of food compensation for the general soldiers of Yansui Town has accelerated a lot. The imperial court has ordered the elite troops of Yansui Town to be mobilized again to assist Liaodong.

But now all the young people in Yansui Town who can fight are kept under Zhang Zongxian's care. Since a large number of soldiers have been captured, not many people can be dispatched to help Liaodong. Now Wanli is keeping a close eye on Liaodong.

If their affairs were discovered at this time, their heads would definitely be lost.

In the end, the commander-in-chief of Yanshou and the governor had no choice but to expedite the food compensation. On the other hand, in order to reassure Zhang Zongxian, they made various operations and replaced the guards of Huangfuchuan Fort and Qingshui Camp with their henchmen.

The two jointly provided security and promised not to interfere, and Zhang Zongxian took over the two fortresses.

Moreover, the governor of Yanshou Town personally wrote a letter stating that as long as the person recommended by Zhang Zongxian participated in the military examination process, he would then recommend this person to be the commander-in-chief of Qian, and then naturally take over the garrison positions of the two forts.

After Zhang Zongxian discussed with Master Ma, they approved this plan. In order not to delay the aid to Liao, Zhang Zongxian decided to release these thousands of households in advance and release the captive servants and soldiers. The horses would not be returned to them.

But Zhang Zongxian decided to arm these soldiers. After all, they were going to reinforce Liaodong. Anyway, they already had flintlock guns, and the Lumi gun could be eliminated. It was also good to let them use it to kill Jiannu.

Before releasing him, Zhang Zongxian decided to treat Wang and Du to a meal.

Wang and Du were also appointed after they wrote the confession. They didn't have to work. They just ate and slept every day. Occasionally, they could go to the college to listen to Zhang Zongxian's lectures on history. The two also recognized each other as a friend in need.

Brother.

That day Master Ma found the two of them and said that Zhang Zongxian wanted to treat them to dinner. At first they thought they were going to be beheaded, so they hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Master Ma also deliberately did not tell them the truth and made the two of them cry for a long time before saying that he would let them go back as a farewell before leaving.

The two of them stopped crying and secretly scolded Master Ma for being unreasonable.

After Master Ma brought the two of them to the dining place, Zhang Zongxian was already sitting at the front seat. Master Ma reminded the two of them that Zhang Zongxian has now been promoted to the post of magistrate of Jiazhou, and is already a fifth-grade doctor-in-training. Not to mention himself.

The civilian officials suppressed the military attachés, and their grades were the same as those of them.

When the two saw Zhang Zongxian already waiting for them, they quickly saluted.

"The lower official pays homage to Mr. Zhizhou and congratulates him on his promotion to the third level in a row and his bright future."

"Come, come, come, don't be polite. Today we are all treated as equals, regardless of official rank. Come and sit down, Master Ma will also sit down."

After everyone sat down, Zhang Zongxian immediately picked up the wine glass and said to the northeast:

"Before I drink, I'll pay my respects to the soldiers who died in the Battle of Sarhu."

After saying that, he spilled the wine in the cup in the northeast direction. Wang and Du didn't know what happened, so they followed Zhang Zongxian's example.

Then Zhang Zongxian poured another glass and raised it,

"This is a toast to Master Du. Master Du took the lead and died fighting hard. He is worthy of being a hero of Yansui Town. Master Du will live forever."

After saying that, he spilled the wine on the ground. When Du Qianhu heard Zhang Zongxian talking about Master Du, his heart tightened. When he heard that Master Du had died in battle, the cup in his hand fell to the ground. He asked tremblingly:

"What happened to Master Du? He died fighting hard. Could it be that the Ming Dynasty was defeated, and he was defeated by Jian Nu. What happened?"

This is what Zhang Zongxian wants.

"Hey! The court newspaper the day before yesterday said that Grand Master Du fell into the treacherous plot of creating slaves and died for his country in Sarhu."

After Du Qianhu heard this, he broke down and cried:

"Grandpa! My grandson is unfilial. He failed to die on the battlefield with his grandpa. My grandson is unfilial!"

Du Qianhu cried heartbreakingly. When Master Du was stationed in Yanshou Town, the Tatars he killed did not dare to approach the border wall. Everyone in Yanshou Town praised Master Du's reputation.

Wang Qianhu also asked tremblingly at this time:

"Sir, do you have any news about General Wang Xuan?"

Zhang Zongxian sighed,

"Both General Wang and Grand Master Du died for their country in Sarhu."

Wang Qianhu had expected it and just asked with a glimmer of hope. Wang and Du hugged each other and cried bitterly again.

Master Ma stepped forward to persuade them.

"It is said that when Master Du died in the battle, he didn't have a single piece of meat on his body, and he was seriously injured and could not leave the battlefield. After Master Du died in the battle, General Wang was also a good man. He held on for a whole night before dying in the battle despite the siege of Jiannu's entire army.

.It is a pity that the imperial court was defeated and the bodies of both of them could not be recovered! I am afraid they were abandoned by the Jiannu slaves."

After hearing this, the two cried even more sadly.

"The country has lost its pillars. Now Jiannu has become a serious problem for the court. The imperial court sent Commander Xiong to carry Shang Fang's sword to Liaodong to stabilize the situation. However, the imperial army suffered heavy losses and is in urgent need of soldiers to deal with Jiannu's next attack. The emperor also has an order.

Suiyan Town will also send reinforcements to support Liaodong.

I know that you two were instigated by the eunuch to bring troops to Qingjian County. Now that the eunuch who supervises the army is also dead, and the chief soldier has also pleaded for you, I will no longer pursue you two.

.

Now that the imperial court is employing people, today is an early farewell ceremony for you two. Those servants, soldiers and generals will also be returned to you."

Du Qianhu stopped crying and knelt down facing the northeast. He kowtowed three times and then said:

"Grandpa, our children and grandchildren will go to Liaodong to avenge grandpa. They will never come back until the slaves are destroyed."

Wang Qianhu also learned to swear.

Then Du Qianhu pulled Wang Qianhu, knelt down to Zhang Zongxian and said:

"Thank you for not killing me, sir. Since we are rich and generous, we should bravely kill the enemy and serve the imperial court. But now we have become bandits and want to harm our own people. We are really arrogantly accepting the favor of the imperial court.

Listening to the master's narration of history on weekdays, we gradually realized that when we go to Liaodong, we will fight bravely to kill the enemy to thank the master for his kindness."

Wang Qianhu was not as good at talking as Du Qianhu, so he could only say:

"Sir, so am I."

Zhang Zongxian understood that they had really figured it out and did not waste his time telling them about Chinese history.

"You two, hurry up and get up. Now when the country is in crisis, it's just generals like you two who can turn the tide."

"Master, don't try to defeat us. We are nothing but mediocre generals. We were defeated at the hands of your disciples this time. We also benefited a lot. We went to Liaodong just to kill the enemy and avenge our country and our family."

.”

"You were also instigated by a villain. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, don't worry about it. If you two don't dislike each other, how about you and I becoming sworn brothers with different surnames?"
