Chapter 9 It's all messed up
Gao Shixin was not willing to deal with this old guy from the bottom of his heart. To be honest, he just wanted to go back to the capital early and think of ways to send his good brother into the palace so that he could have a lifelong support.
But the old guy still accepted the money and food he sent. He was snatched away seventy-six heads, which was 2,280 taels of silver! He received two hundred taels of silver, what's the point?
So, Gao Shixin, who was cunning and cunning, was able to bend and stretch, quickly knelt down and saluted: "Thank you for your kindness, but the humble family is in the capital. I want to go back early to reunite with my family, and send my injured little brother home by the way. I hope Yang Jingluo can help us."
"Get up quickly!" Yang Hao helped Gao Shixin up, "Now the situation in Liaodong is in a frustration, and a hero like Gao Yingxiong needs to turn the tide. Gao Yingxiong, you should stay in Liaodong for a few more months and wait until the situation is stable before going back. As for your little brother, don't worry, I will take care of him here, and he will not be in trouble."
Gao Shi said in his heart that this old guy wants to use me to make military achievements so as to protect his head, and even a black hat. He is really a good plan! But now he can't go back, what should he do?
He thought so in his heart, but Gao Shixin, who has always been cunning and cunning, can even cheat his brothers, was very grateful to Zhengluo Yang in his mouth. He even praised this old thing very well, almost blowing him to heaven.
"Okay! OK! OK!" Yang Hao even felt comfortable with every pore. He said three good words, reached out and patted Gao Shixin on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Young man, do it well! In the future, you will be able to stand out and return home in glory!"
No need to go in the future! If it weren't for the 76 heads of you, the old guy, I would have made a name for myself now when I returned to the capital! Gao Shi scolded in confidence, but he was humble: "I'm sorry, I, for your love."
Since I can't leave, I can only be at peace since I come, and take one step at a time. Stay for a few more months, and when this old thing collapses, I will return to the capital. Perhaps in these few months, I can do some big things and make more contributions before returning to the capital. Thinking of this, Gao Shixin bowed to Yang Hao, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Yang Jinglei, for your kindness, I will kill the Tartars more, make meritorious service to the country, and serve the court!"
Yang Hao smiled all over his face: "Young man, that's right. Do it well. I have reported to the court for you. The court rewards you with an official position. In the future, it will be considered a return home in glory."
After seeing off Yang Hao and his gang, Gao Shixin returned to Zhang Yong's bedroom.
Seeing that Zhang Yong was sleeping soundly, Gao Shixin went to the kitchen again and started killing chickens, preparing to slaughter the chicken that Yang Hao sent first. He had never killed chickens in his previous life. In the 21st century, if he wanted to stew chickens, he would sell them all, so why did he kill chickens by himself? But in this life, he did not leave any memories of killing chickens. After all, he was a poor military household who was so poor that he could not eat enough coarse grains. How could he eat meat? Even during the Chinese New Year, at most, the family could make some white flour, steam a few white flour buns, and then make some leeks and eggs, and make vegetarian dumplings. It was already a good thing for the Chinese New Year.
Gao Shixin, who had only seen chickens walking and had never slaughtered chickens. He felt that killing people was easier than killing chickens, was so busy that he had made a lot of chicken feathers, but he still couldn't get it done. In the end, he became popular and directly pressed the chicken head on the chopping board, chopped it down with a kitchen knife, and the chicken head flew more than ten feet away.
The kitchen emitted the aroma of stewed chicken, which attracted Zhang Yong, who had gotten up and relieved his hands, and said, "Brother, what are you stewing? It smells so good! Is it stewing **? When I was in my hometown, I went to the market in the town. When I passed by Zhao Qianhu's house, their house was stewing chicken, which was the fragrance."
"Yongwa, are you awake?" Gao Shixin gradually restored the memories left by this body before. Zhang Yong was in the Gao family and was called Yongwa by his family, so Gao Shixin simply called him Yongwa.
"Well," Zhang Yong nodded, "I heard that the master sent two hundred taels of silver? When the master came, I woke up and could hear it clearly inside."
"Yes, but we scored 76 Jiannu's heads for them. In order not to throw away the black hat on his head, Yang Jinglei gave us 200 taels of silver to exchange the seventy-six heads we obtained. He reported to us the court, and only thirty-six Jiannu's heads, and we were divided into two brothers."
"Is this too unscrupulous?" Zhang Yong, who was filled with historical knowledge in the late Ming Dynasty by the computer, immediately shouted, "Seventy-six heads are worth at least 2,000 taels of silver! He can also give us two brothers one hundred households! He gave us only 200 taels of silver and gave us a way to fight? Yang Hao is really not a good thing!"
"Shh! Sigh quietly!" Gao Shixin stopped Zhang Yong, "The person is under the eaves and has to bow his head. We are fine now. After a while, I will harvest a batch of Jiannu's heads and we will go back to the capital!"
After drinking a bowl of chicken soup, Zhang Yong fell asleep again.
But no matter how much, the 200 taels of silver sent by Yang Hao, plus the twenty gold leaves found from the bodies of the Later Jin soldiers, 150 taels of silver. Gao Shixin and Zhang Yong's brothers already had more than 500 taels of silver, and they were also a little rich man. A gold leaf weighed about one tael, and the gold-silver ratio back then was one to eight taels of gold. One tael of gold could be exchanged for eight taels of silver.
Gao Shixin served Zhang Yong in Shenyang for a month, watching the little brother's body recover. However, Zhang Yong's Adam's apple that had already grown was gone, and the thin hair that had just grown on his lips disappeared, and his voice became sharp and thin. When he picked up the teacup, he also raised his orchid fingers from time to time, and there was a smell of urine left by his body due to incontinence.
The thirty-six heads that Yang Hao asked Gao Shixin for the merits have been sent back to the capital, and the reward from the Ministry of War has also been brought down. Gao Shixin was promoted to an officer of the general flag, and Zhang Yong was promoted to a small flag, with thirty-six heads. The court rewarded Gao Shixin and Zhang Yongwen Yin 1,100 taels.
He also heard a little news from the court: It is said that Emperor Wanli was furious when he heard the news of the defeat in the Battle of Sarhu. Many people in the court wanted to impeach Yang Hao, but because of the more than 200 heads of the Later Jin soldiers sent back by Li Rubai, Emperor Wanli was confident to suppress the impeachment of those people. This time, Yang Hao and Li Rubai not only saved their heads, but perhaps even the black hats on their heads could be temporarily saved.
Thinking that Yang Hao might not be sent back to the capital by the Jinyiwei, Gao Shi was very unhappy. He did not expect that the first thing he did when he traveled to the Ming Dynasty was to protect this treacherous.
The situation in Liaodong has long been decayed. The Liaodong border troops secretly sold grain, iron and other strategic materials to Jiannu, and even secretly connected slaves. Several cities in Liaodong have long been penetrated by Jiannu. Since Li Chengliang started to run Liaodong, this place has become the private territory of the Li family and Liaodong officials. The court cannot get involved at all, and they do not know what the spies of the Jinyiwei guards do for food.
In fact, when they arrived at this place, the Jinyiwei was also pulled into the water by them. Some Jinyiwei with conscience would not leave Liaodong alive. The Jinyiwei who could find out the truth was either robbed and killed by horse thieves halfway through, or encountered Tartars and were killed. Anyway, the water in Liaodong is very deep.
According to convention, after being rewarded by the imperial court, Gao Shixin and Zhang Yong should return to the Tongzhou Guard in Northern Zhili. However, Yang Hao wanted to use Gao Shixin to make meritorious service, so he refused to let him return to the capital.
Based on the memories left in his previous life, Gao Shixin knew that in two months, Nurhaci would lead 45,000 Later Jin troops to attack Kaiyuan and would soon capture Tieling. The failure of the Battle of Sarhu and the loss of Kaitie and the loss of Kaitie City, Yang Hao was escorted to Beijing and imprisonment. Xiong Tingbi rushed from the capital and replaced Yang Hao as the governor of Liaodong.
Gao Shixin's original idea was that when Xiong Tingbi came, he planned to defect to Xiong Tingbi.
Xiong Tingbi has a bad temper and has a bad relationship with other officials, but this person cherishes talents and knows how to fight. Cao Wenzhao was originally a soldier brought by Xiong Tingbi, so Gao Shixin felt that he could have a better future after following Lao Xiong.
In my memory, Xiong Tingbi's final outcome seemed to be bad. Because of Guangning's defeat, he was thrown into the imperial prison by the Jinyiwei, and later beheaded and passed on to the Nine Borders. But Gao Shixin believed that since he came to this era, such a thing would not happen again. With himself, can the tragedy of Guangning's defeat still happen? As long as the traitor Sun Degong and Bao Chengxian were destroyed in advance, the Ming army would not have suffered a defeat.
But now, the Later Jin soldiers killed by Gao Shixin in the Battle of Sarhu have changed the direction of history. I don’t know whether Xiong Tingbi can still come to Liaodong.
Gao Shixin secretly thought: No, I have to think of a way to get Yang Hao, the old thief! If he colludes with Li Rubai and let these two old thieves continue to operate in Liaodong, the situation will only worsen.
Seeing 1,100 taels of silver, Zhang Yong's eyes were straightened: "Brother, we have made a fortune. This 1,100 taels of silver is enough for us brothers to live a good life! If we buy more than ten little maids, we can buy a lot of good land for the rest of our money and rent it to others to plant. If we collect rent, we will never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of our lives."
Gao Shixin smiled: "Little brother, you are about to enter the palace. If you can't enter the palace, you can only be a rabbit master. Can you buy a little maid?"
I feel that the computer system is still very useful, so I washed away all the memories of Zhang Yong's past life. Otherwise, if he knew that it was his good brother who cheated him in the Ming Dynasty and became his father-in-law, wouldn't that make him hate him to death?
Since Yang Hao doesn't let himself go back, it's better to make more military achievements here and then go back to the capital. As long as you make enough contributions, Yang Hao can't stop him if he wants to go back then.
