Chapter 18: The army is slack
After leaving the Central Military Hall, Wang Zheng smiled with a self-deprecating smile. Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements, but when they are born in troubled times, how can they strengthen their own strength without great achievements?
"Oh, who do I think it is? Isn't this Mr. Wang Bai who just recruited about 200 refugees to make up the numbers!"
Just as I was thinking, I heard a familiar voice coming, full of mockery. When I looked up, I found that it was indeed the mountain.
At this moment, Wang Zheng had no intention of talking to him, so he turned around and left.
Seeing Wang Zheng's appearance, Gao Shan glanced at the servants behind him. Although they didn't say anything, Gao Shan was still a little angry and felt that his authority was being violated. He caught up with him a few steps and grabbed Wang Zheng's right arm.
"Don't leave, is it because I'm right and I feel guilty about being a thief?"
Wang Zheng just turned around and looked at Gao Shan indifferently. He broke free from his hand with a little force, and walked forward on his own, but still didn't say a word.
"Okay, Wang Zheng, don't toast or not eat the punishment!"
Gao Shan finally couldn't bear it anymore. He was deliberately provoking Wang Zheng, but Wang Zheng's silence aroused him. He pulled out the steel knife from his waist and pointed at Wang Zheng and cursed.
"What? Your high-sweeping officer has become so unruly that he dares to draw swords outside the Central Military Hall to threaten the generals of the same camp. Can you rebel?"
"this..."
Gao Shan met the group of officials behind him, and stood there but didn't know what to do. Wang Zheng's hat was big. The Central Military Office has always been a place where the chief officer beats the drums and gathers the generals. At first, the sword was not allowed to enter.
Although the rules are loose now and the sword is allowed, the punishment for drawing swords outside the Central Military Hall is quite serious.
Although Gao Shan is arrogant, he has not yet reached the point of being stupid. The big hat of rebellion is likely to make him the target of public criticism.
What made Gao Shan helpless was that Wang Zheng was no different from his name, and he also had the title of the 100th general. He was the first battalion's sentry officer. He had just recruited about two hundred new recruits and was also a serious general of Wendeng Camp when he took it out. Seeing Wang Zheng holding a chicken feather as an arrow, Gao Shan still tactfully took back the knife.
Looking at Wang Zheng's back as he turned around and left, Gao Shan still couldn't swallow his anger and shouted: "Wang Zheng! Don't think I'm afraid of you. There are not so many rules in Wendeng City!"
Seeing this, a servant looked at Gao Shan, who was furious and thunderous, and suddenly came up with a plan, stepped forward and whispered to Gao Shan.
When the words were finished, the clerk was full of flattery and laughed, as if he was very convinced that Gao Shan would reward him for this.
But Gao Shan glared at him and became even more angry after hearing this.
"What! You asked me to assassinate Wang Zheng?"
Gao Shan kicked over without hesitation, kicked the clerk to the ground, and shouted: "Come here, tie me up! Although Gao Shan looked down on Wang Zheng, I will use open and upright methods to make him understand that I never despise such secret methods!"
"I'm so damn blind. I'll actually recruit such scumbags into the family team. From now on, if I see you in Wendeng City, don't blame me for turning against you and getting out of here!"
The matter came too suddenly. This family wanted to please Gao Shan and was waiting for the benefits happily, but before he could react, he was stunned by Gao Shan.
Immediately afterwards, he scolded him in a slight manner. He didn't care about anything at the moment, got up and cried and begged for mercy. After hearing Gao Shan's last words, he breathed a sigh of relief and ran out without looking back.
......
Wang Zheng didn't take this little episode seriously. After leaving the Central Military Hall, he returned to the residence of the villagers of Yijingzhuang in the east of the city and found Dong Youyin and Huang Yang.
After telling them about the matter, Dong Youyin, Huang Yang, Ning Erhei and others suddenly became happy. They heard that their superiors were going to send out military food, weapons and armor. Wang Liu, Yu'er, Zhang Ping and the people of Yijingzhuang also fought for the Wang and their happiness.
Without further ado, Wang Zheng quickly took a group of young and strong men who had just become formal soldiers yesterday to find the promotion officer.
In addition to the camp officers in charge of the army, there are also promotion officials in Wendeng Camp, which specializes in distributing and managing food, grass, military pay, and military equipment, and are generally held by literati.
This is a big fat man. Although his money is not as good as the inspection in Ninghaizhou City, it is also a place where everyone in Wendeng Camp is jealous.
If it weren't for the promotion of officials, the literati would have been a bloody man, so he would have been afraid that Gao Shan and others would have been fighting for a long time.
The Wendeng Camp's promotion officer called Li Ru, who is as famous as his name, is really a slut. However, although Li Ru is thin, she is not afraid when she sees Wang Zheng and her group. The first reaction is to snort coldly.
What happened is that Dong Youyin and Huang Yang looked at Li Ru with inexplicable expressions. Have we seen this guy before?
Wang Zheng naturally knew the status of the literati at this time. These new recruits were still dressed in rags and looked less than the guards guards at the gate. It was not surprising that Li Ru had such a reaction.
Speaking of which, this is the first literati Wang Zheng met in the Ming Dynasty. Although he had a bad impression, he followed the local customs and should respect the literati Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng clasped his fists and said respectfully: "I'm sorry to transfer Li to official position. This is a handwritten document from Xietai. Please check it out."
Li Ru wore a square hat on her head and a brush in her hand. When she heard Wang Zheng's words, she raised her head and looked at Wang Zheng carefully. When she heard Wang Zheng's respectful words, she looked a little better.
After taking the document and taking the document, Li Ru didn't say much, and took Wang Zheng and others to the treasury, pointing to the door and saying listlessly: "No, the armory is in front, and the military rations are on the left."
Speaking of this, Li Ru pretended to be vicious and said, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, don't be greedy, otherwise the disaster will not be far away."
"What Li Dian said is that we will not take more than one, and everything will be subject to the documents of the Taiwan Strait."
Nodded with satisfaction, Li Ru pinched her nose and walked through Huangyang, Dong Youyin, Deng Erhei and others, and left quickly.
After watching Li Ru leave, Wang Zheng happily rubbed his hands to the front of the armory. Wu Weizhong gave him two hundred spears, two hundred pairs of mandarin duck battle jackets, twenty pairs of leather armor, and two hundred stones of military rations. These are all the capitals for starting his own business, so Wang Zheng was not excited.
But when Wang Zheng saw those loosely piled up standard spears and leather armor, he was poured with a basin of cold water on his head. This was not a spear. It was clearly a wooden stick with an iron spear tip. Some spear tips were not even firm. Can you go into battle with such weapons to kill the enemy?
There were also those leather armors, and I didn’t know how long it had been stacked here. Dong Youyin happily picked up a pair of leather armor, wiped the dust and spider webs on it, and said with a tsk, just about to say something.
But the leather armor started to move by itself, which scared Dong Youyin so much that he screamed and threw it on the ground.
Everyone looked over quickly and saw something squirming in the leather armor. A "squeak" sound kept coming out, and finally a huge gray mouse suddenly burst out.
