Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 200 Qi Shuai Jiguang (Part [-])
The battle jacket is beautifully embroidered in the color of mandarin ducks, and the swords and guns are as silent as Lin Junma.The Lord of Heaven is afraid of the might of our soldiers, so how dare we try to be overshadowed by clouds.

In Ji Town in the early spring, today the clouds and rain have disappeared, and the sky of the General Military Mansion Superintendent’s Campus is clear and cloudless. It seems that even the master of the sky is afraid of the murderous spirit of Ji Town’s superintendent, and no cloud dares to stay here.

On the parade platform of the Grand Campus, a general stood proudly.This general was dressed in a big red python pattern, with a square collar and a sleeveless armor. He looked solemnly at the three thousand soldiers who were performing under the stage. The momentum was like a rainbow, and the general was unmoved when he saw it, as if he had long been used to it.

On both sides of the main seat of the military parade, there are eight generals, each of different heights, short, fat, and thin, but they all have a worried look on their faces. During the military parade, they would secretly glance at the general in the middle of the parade from time to time.

All of a sudden, a soldier who was not dressed up at night ran out diagonally, looking anxious, but he didn't dare to go on stage to disturb him, and just spun around in a hurry under the stage.

The general in the middle of the parade glanced lightly, and the generals beside him subconsciously stood up straight, staring at him, only to hear the general say: "Wu Weizhong, you are temporarily acting as the commander-in-chief."

A tall general with a helmet and full armor came out, clasped his fists and shouted loudly, "here! The last general takes orders!"

The python-robed general turned around calmly and walked down the parade platform, beckoning at that night.Ye Bushou hurriedly ran, knocked his head on the ground, handed out a letter with intact sealant in his hand, and said in a hurry: "Marshal, General Yang said that the situation in the capital is all in this letter, but he has no way of knowing it." Please read the inside information and make up your own mind after reading it.”

The general in boa robe took the letter and looked at it, only to see that it said "give it to Qi Shuai and send it to you personally", and it was signed as "Yang Wentong, a young soldier who is in charge of Cheng En".

In this world, Qi Jiguang is the only one worthy of being called "Shuai Qi".As for Yang Wentong, Qi Jiguang was recruited by Qi Jiguang when he was recruiting troops in Yiwu. Since then, because of his loyalty and bravery, he has been transferred to the left city of Jiumen to defend the capital.Qi Jiguang often had to rely on him to tell the situation in Beijing.

Qi Jiguang didn't say much, just opened the letter silently, took out the letter paper and looked up and down quickly, sometimes frowning, sometimes raising eyebrows, and finally squeezed the letter paper into the palm of his hand, frowned tightly, sighed for a long time, and said: "You have worked so hard, this commander already knows, go down and receive the reward."

Qi Jiguang ruled the army very strictly. He didn't dare to say anything that night, so he kowtowed and thanked him and left.

Holding the letter paper that was only the size of a Buddhist bead in his hand, Qi Jiguang hesitated for a moment, and was about to turn around and give an order when he suddenly heard the soldiers in the colonel singing in unison:
Ten thousand people are of one mind, Mount Tai can be shaken.

But loyalty and righteousness are full of anger.

The Lord will kiss me better than parents.

If you violate the military law, you will not be free.

The order is clear, the letter of reward and punishment.

Going to the water and fire, dare to stay late?

Report to the emperor Xi, and rescue the head of Guizhou.

Kill all the Japanese slaves and find a prince.

……

Qi Jiguang frowned slightly, but didn't say a word, just waited on the spot.Not long after, the army and soldiers in the Dajiao Field changed their formation neatly and left the field one by one. Wu Weizhong and other generals hurried towards Qi Jiguang.

But when they arrived in front of Qi Jiguang, they looked at each other, and no one dared to take the lead in speaking. Wu Weizhong, who was ordered to parade on his behalf just now, had no choice but to come out and say, "Commander, is something wrong?"

Qi Jiguang didn't answer.

Wu Weizhong felt nervous, and explained to himself: "Commander, Biaoxia knows that the commander has never left the field during the military parade, except for knowing the enemy's situation. Today, the commander...so Biaoxia made his own decision and ordered them to disband and return to the camp first. If there is a foul rule, please punish the next person."

Qi Jiguang asked lightly: "What did I order you to do?"

Wu Weizhong replied: "The commander-in-chief ordered Biao to read the exercises for him."

"Are you done?" Qi Jiguang asked.

"This..." Wu Weizhong looked a little embarrassed, and said, "I'm done, but..."

"Okay." Qi Jiguang said: "Wu Weizhong inspected the routine spring exercises on behalf of the commander-in-chief, rewarded five taels of silver, and recorded merit once. Do you have anything else to say?"

Wu Weizhong faltered: "This...the routine spring exercise was not completely rehearsed. It was because the bidder deleted the items without authorization, so it was completed ahead of schedule."

Qi Jiguang was still expressionless, but asked back: "Does this commander have the right to do this?"

Wu Weizhong was taken aback for a moment, and said: "Of course the commander has the right to do this."

Qi Jiguang nodded: "very good, then, since I ordered you to read it on my behalf, what you order is what I order, why not?"

Wu Weizhong was stunned again, hesitatingly said: "This...it looks like..."

"It's not wrong for you to give the order as the representative of the spring exercise, so you have merit." Qi Jiguang said, his tone turned cold: "But the commander never ordered you to guess what you want without authorization. This has happened before."

Wu Weizhong didn't understand, but he didn't dare to say much, he just knelt down and kowtowed: "Put the mark and receive the punishment."

"Wu Weizhong presumed Shangyi without authorization and behaved improperly. He was punished by guarding the gate of the commander for three days. Wu Weizhong, can you accept the punishment?"

"Mark the penalty."

Qi Jiguang nodded, turned to a young general and said, "Ji Gang, write down this punishment."

The Ji Gang he was talking about was not the guy named Ji Gang in the Zhengde Dynasty, but the official name of the military judge.

The young general clasped his fists indifferently, lowered his head slightly: "The mark has been marked down."

Qi Jiguang glanced at the generals who dared not speak out, and said calmly: "Follow me back to the festival hall to discuss matters."

When the generals saw that there was something to do, they didn't dare to neglect, and agreed in unison.

The so-called Festival Hall is the White Tiger Festival Hall. This word is a general term, and it generally refers to the place where the commander-in-chief of the leading army issues military orders.At this time, Qi Jiguang was not on the march, but of course he was referring to the main hall of the General Army Mansion.

The generals followed Qi Jiguang to the main hall of the General Military Mansion, and sat down according to their ranks. Qi Jiguang himself naturally took the top seat. Seeing that the generals had already calmed down and stared at him waiting for instructions, he said: "A few days ago, This commander received a private letter from Gao Ge's old mansion, and the letter was written by a nephew of Gao Ge's old man...I think you should have heard about this matter."

The generals did not dare to answer, but they all pricked up their ears.

"I know that you are curious. This Mr. Gao and I, Qi, have never met each other. In addition, there are different ways in civil and military affairs. Is there anything for him to write in person?" Qi Jiguang said, smiling himself , but didn’t wait for anyone to answer, so he interfaced himself: “Actually, the commander-in-chief was also very puzzled at the time, because besides the reasons just now, there is another point, you may not know it, but the commander-in-chief knows it... this senior The son is only seven or eight years old, only the same age as the present prince."
