Chapter 524 Entering Beijing

Zheng Guochang was really surprised. Ma Chengen was a martial artist. Although he was rare among the border generals, he still made a carefree and rough image on the surface and rarely spoke long speeches. Today, he really changed his mind and actually said so much here.

"Uncle, I've said so much today." Ma Chengen smiled heartily and said, "You and I were both impeached during the incident with Yusheng. Although Wang Xin was arrested and the impeachment was calm, the court could not have no doubts. You and I must have a job..."

Zheng Guochang nodded and said, "That's true, I just don't know which court will call us?"

"I have already asked for the transfer of my job." Ma Chengen said with a relaxed look: "I will transfer to Yansui, and Lao Du will come to Datong."

Zheng Guochang frowned and said, "Your Ma family is in Datong, which is the real foundation..."

"What is the basis?" Ma Chengen said with a self-deprecating look on his face: "It's nothing more than tens of thousands of acres of land, more than a thousand needs. Now Zhang Wenlan gives me 70,000 to 80,000 taels a year. The income of the tens of thousands of acres of land in my family is not as good as the number he gave me. With the remaining wealth of my Ma family, my needs can raise more than two thousand people, all of which are cavalry. On Datong, Wenlan has mastered the overall situation. When I go to Yansui, the taoko there is not honest, and he still often commits on the border. Lao Du is a useless waste. When I go there, I have to behead hundreds or thousands of levels a year. I am the assistant general, and I can at least be promoted to the right governor... When Wenlan goes to northern Shaanxi again, I can also help him with the ability."

After hearing this, Zheng Guochang was moved and said, "I didn't expect that you could be so far for Wen Lan?"

"Haha, we must also make military achievements." Ma Chengen smiled and said, "Old Du is a useless person, the doulu is too arrogant! When he arrived in Datong, he just kept paying attention to the money and he didn't care about other things. Wen Lan still had no restrictions."

Zheng Guochang felt something was wrong, but he didn't think about it for a moment. Ma Chengen said a few more words and said goodbye. Looking at Ma Chengen's back downstairs, Zheng Guochang suddenly understood how he felt just now... I don't know when it started, even for generations of generals like Ma Chengen, many children are deputy generals, generals, guerrillas, and have powerful forces in the towns in the northwest. There are more than a thousand powerful generals with more than a thousand people. Now they are actually cooperating with Zhang Han intentionally or unintentionally!

"Zhang Wenlan? Great, amazing!" Zheng Guochang didn't know what he felt in his heart, so he could only whisper softly.

...

When Xu Dahua walked to Xinpingbao, he indeed met He Yusheng's people.

In fact, this team of people was sent from Li Zhuang, and the head was the attendant Li Mengnian. Each attendant had the same position as the 100th general manager of the bureau. The intern attendant also had the same identity as the captain of the banner. Li Mengnian, Zhang Xuwen, Zhang Xuzong, Xia Xiping and others were all considered Zhang Han's adjutants. Except for one Zhang Xuzong, these young people did not disappoint Zhang Han and everyone. They were all trained by Zhang Han to become very rare top talents.

The meeting between Tao Zuo is actually not respectful to an imperial envoy like Xu Dahua, especially those with Yu Sheng are still busy with things.

Xu Dahua and his group were on the south side of the road, and Yusheng's people were on the north side. The northwest direction was the Cangmang military fort standing within the side wall. Outside the military fort, there was a side wall built with rammed earth that stretched forward and could not see the end.

One by one, one by one, the rushing walls appeared before people's eyes.

The most eye-catching thing is a pier that is more than three miles north of the side wall, built on the hill. Although it is far away from the side wall, it is within reach of each other's sight. The pier seems to be a nail outside the side wall, firmly piercing on the grassland, pressing that plump land fiercely under oneself.

People like Xu Dahua actually had some emotion. He said to the people around him: "Sure enough, they said that Zhang Hanbufan from Yusheng is really a big deal. The side pier outside the wall was built by him, right?"

A staff member replied: "That's right, the student has inquired about this matter. Many border piers and military platforms have been built outside the side wall. I heard that it is now facing north in a straight line. Next year, it will be built horizontally and connected to each other. If this happens, it will be at least a hundred miles away, and it will be inconvenient for the Northern Territory to enter and exit."

"It's really a big deal." Xu Dahua narrowed his eyes and looked to the north, saying with some admiration.

Of course, Xu Dahua and his staff didn't know that the so-called important place within dozens of miles of the building of border piers and military platforms was just a smokescreen of Yusheng. The fact is that the military fortress of the Taiwan Army has been built to the banks of the Xiaohei River more than 100 miles south of Qingcheng. If you know this news, Xu Dahua's impression would have changed. This relaxed feeling is probably impossible to send out, but he will rush and leave the place where things are wrong.

The man from Yusheng was on the left side of the road. A soldier standing on the top of the car was waving two red flags, obviously using the red flag to verb the nearest Biandun.

Xu Dahua looked over, but saw someone dancing red flags on the pier over there. The red flags on both sides looked very good, but it was a bit boring for those who couldn't understand it.

After a while, the flag language was finally finished. Li Mengnian brought everyone over. Li Mengnian bowed to Xu Dahua from afar and said, "Let's go to Mr. Zhang to do odd jobs. I just spread the news with the flag language. At a critical moment, I neglected Lord Xu. Don't blame me."

Xu Dahua must be a person with little cultivation, but the aide who taught Zhang Han a lesson seemed too ungraceful. He snorted coldly and said, "This thing is fresh, and it seems to be different from the flag language in my Ming army."

He Yusheng's flag language system has just been developed. Just now, Li Mengnian is still holding a notebook in his hand, and there are also various military platforms in the Dunbao. Only by moving according to the flag language and comparing it from the notebook can the meaning be completely translated.

In previous wars, flag language was also used, but some forts or piers exceeded the visual range, and there was no way to use flag language to convey messages under the blockade of the Mongols. In subsequent wars, He Yusheng would connect this shortcoming, so that even if the commander was surrounded in the future, the message could be delivered smoothly.

Of course, it will take at least several years to build the Duntai military fort to the point where it can be connected by flags. Even the Ming Dynasty court cannot afford the money...

Li Mengnian bowed and smiled and said, "This flag language was studied by several Europeans and us. It is slightly more complicated than the military flag language of the Ming Dynasty."

Xu Dahua snorted coldly. He naturally didn't have much interest in these things. Looking at Li Mengnian, he said, "Zhang Shoubei is planning to send an aide to meet with me? Where are his own people?"

"I'm really sorry." Li Mengnian said generously and without any panic: "My lord should be in the capital at this time."

"Ah?" Xu Dahua was shocked, and the boss with his mouth wide open.

"My adult said that he wanted to go to Beijing to argue for his grievances. How could he not count?" Li Mengnian smiled and said, "Military affairs are also urgent. In order to prevent any abnormal movements of the northern enemy, the adults rode lightly and quickly arrived in the capital. For this reason, he was very regretful that he could not meet Mr. Xu and ask for advice in person."

After saying that, Li Mengnian picked up a small bag and sent it to Xu Dahua's long sui, smiling and said, "Some little gifts, please give me some rewards."

Xu Mansion Chief naturally caught the package, opened a corner, and suddenly it was golden.

Xu Dahua nodded slightly, and the weight was about a dozen gold ingots, which was worth about a thousand taels of silver. This gift was considered a generous gift. Although it was a little different from Zhang Han's image of wealth and rumors of being generous in the rumors, it was worth it and he gained a lot.

"I must also rush to the road." Xu Dahua said seriously: "The criminal Wang Xinyi rushed back to the capital quickly to testify and defend Zhang Shouge."

Li Mengnian bowed deeply and said, "I am so grateful to you, Lord Lao Xu, who is inferior."

...

When Xu Dahua first arrived in Datong, Zhang Han had already entered Beijing from Xibianmen.

Except for Xia Xiping, several servants and Wen Zhongfa and others as guards, Zhang Han had very limited escorts, and after entering Beijing, everyone moved apart and left a little distance between them, which made the cavalry team even more unobstructed.

There are many military officers in the Acropolis, as well as commanders of two guards, and third-rank military officers. Such a level of military officers are not as good as dogs in the capital... There are many military officers who come to the capital to handle attacks or promoted military officers from the outside town to the third-rank. There are many military officers who come to the capital to handle attacks, and at most one or two servants will be great. Some of the hereditary military officers are so poor that they don’t even have money to go to the capital. When they arrive in the capital, they can’t even get the assault office. There are also many unlucky people who have not handled attacks for decades. With an identity like Zhang Han, it is better to be low-key.

Wang Faxiang and Li Guobin were waiting at the city gate early, and they brought more people. The two big cars were just appearances. Zhang Han glanced at him and found that with his eyes, a few men waiting to carry the life were slightly suspicious, and the rest could not see at all.

"See you sir!"

"I've met Mr. Zhang."

Wang Faxiang and Li Guobin bowed together, and both of them were excited and unconcealed.

It has been nearly three years since Wang Faxiang arrived in the capital, and the last time Li Guobin met Zhang Han was more than two years ago. After many years of separation, he was naturally excited when he met again.

"Mr. Li, Wang Faxiang, both of you are doing very well in the capital." Zhang Han smiled gently, holding their hands and laughed: "For a long time, both of you have been my capable help in the capital. Today is a rare opportunity."

Wang Faxiang was actually a little nervous, and couldn't speak. Li Guobin relaxed a lot and smiled and said, "Sir, I'm too happy. We heard that the adults are coming. We are too busy and we can't get it if we want to go back to Lizhuang to see the adults. This time, if such a big thing had happened, it would be difficult to see the adults once."

Zhang Han smiled and said, "It's better to have less such things, so as not to be overcoming the next time, that's all."

Wang Faxiang said at this time: "As long as there is an adult, we are not afraid of anything!"-
