Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 978 is coming
In addition to Ma Dong of the Ma family army who was recommended by Gao Yushi to be a general of Haigai, Ma Chengen, one of the next generation of young generals of the Ma family army, was also invited by him to succeed Li Rugui as the commander of the Fuzhou Guard.

Ma Chengen was the son of Ma Fu who died of a sudden illness due to the unloading of the armor. He was also the only son of Ma Fu.
In fact, among the descendants of the Ma family, there are many generals, and their status is not low.Among them, Ma Chengxun, the son of Ma Jin, Ma Chengen, the son of Ma Fu, Ma Chengzhao, Ma Chengxun, Ma Chengzong, and Ma Chengxun, the sons of Ma Gui, are all figures recorded in history books.

Ma Chengxun went to Nanjing Zuo Dudu; Ma Chengen went to Xuanfu Chief Military Officer and Dudu Tongzhi.

And Magui's four sons, Chengzhao served as the commander-in-chief of the Xixia Road, and finally became the king; Chengxun served as the deputy general of Jidong and died in Ren; Chengzong served as the guerrilla in Gaoping, Liaodong;Not bad either.

As for the next generation, most of them were still generals, but at that time the Ming Dynasty was already in decline, and the records were very sporadic.

Now, because of Gao Pragmatism's leadership of the Monan War, Ma Gui was promoted to the chief soldier one step ahead of schedule, and even Ma Chengxun, who led this battle, was promoted to the deputy chief soldier much earlier, and now the Ma family is also excited Abnormally, I especially want to make another contribution, and compare it with "Dong Li" to see which one is stronger.

For this kind of healthy competition, Gao Yushi still appreciates it very much, so this time he asked Ma Chengen to come over.

Why not Magui's son?Because Ma Gui was originally the youngest son of Ma Lu's old age, and now his eldest son Ma Chengzhao is only in his teens, and it's hard to say whether he can ride a horse or not, obviously it's not yet time to use it.

What Ma Dong and Ma Chengen made up were all the gaps vacated by Li Chengliang, while the Dongchang Fortress on top of Zhang Wanbang was the "vacancy" that Gao Yushi directly wanted to come.

Because Dongchang Fort is an important place, very important. It is not only the uppermost fortress controlled by the Ming army in the Liaohe section of Yingkou Port, but also the first fort in the north of the Duoyan Chaohua Department in the front. It is also an intermediate station connecting western Liaoning and eastern Liaoning.

The current Dongchangbao Beiyu is a veteran in his fifties. Not only has Gao Yushi never heard of his name, he summoned him to take a look when he visited Yingkou last time, and found that this person is not seriously ill, and his legs and feet seem to be a little weak.

So Gao Wushi simply told him directly that he was asked to come to Yingkou to take charge of the defense of this important port, so as to prevent him from facing the direct threat of the Duoyan Chaohua Department.

The veteran named Zhao Shan was very talkative, and when Gao Wushi mentioned it, he immediately agreed.

In fact, speaking of it, the high-practical arrangement itself gave this veteran a lot of face. The importance of Yingkou Port has already been revealed. In the future, due to the relationship with the Jinghua Salt Works, his status will only be higher, and he is a veteran who is almost 60 years old. , it is not easy to retreat from the first line to the second line safely, but it is not a surprise to be able to transfer to a fat job?

Ma Dong, Ma Chengen, and Zhang Wanbang were naturally overjoyed when the next-generation leader of the Practical School defaulted to summon them. After getting the news, they immediately set off for Liaodong with their family and Ren Jiading.

However, because Ma Dong had been transferred to Shaanxi before, and the journey was far away, he must have arrived at the end. As Ma Chengen and Zhang Wanbang were both in the north of Shanxi, they simply joined forces and arrived at the same time.

Gao Wu held a banquet at the Military Constitution Yamen to welcome the two of them, and moved the two "juniors" deeply.

In fact, it is true that Ma Chengen is a younger generation, but Zhang Wanbang is hard to say. When he met Gao Yushi, Gao Yushi was a student with the prince, and he was only ten years old.

It's just that because both of them have a father's generation and Gao Yushi's peers, so they can only take the initiative to be inferior in front of Gao Yushi, and call themselves juniors.

Zhang Wanbang joined the army very early, and he was very smart since he was a child. His father Zhang Bingzhong always thought that his son would definitely be better than him in the future, and he had a good temper, so he was a little indulgent.So much so that when he met Gao Wushi for the first time, he even dared to ask Gao Jiaqiding to do dangerous missions.

Later, after learning that Gao Yushi had won the top six prizes, he was convinced of Gao Yushi in his heart.Later, Gao Wu staged a "Partial Teacher Ding Annan" in Guangxi, and Zhang Wanbang was really convinced.

In this trip to Monan, Zhang Wanbang and his son relied on the Wanli style provided by Jinghua, the drills and tactics jointly formulated by Gao Yushi and Qi Jiguang, and after fighting Xin Ai for his own famous battle, Zhang Wanbang's attitude towards Gao Yushi It was directly upgraded from admiration to five-body projection.

Therefore, Zhang Wanbang was very excited about being able to serve under Gao Yushi again, and even had an inexplicable urge to fight.

Not long after the banquet, Zhang Wanbang couldn't help being excited, and asked Gao Yushi, "Enxian, you two are called here this time, but you are going to send troops from Dongchang Fort to destroy the fried flowers in one fell swoop and recover the Liaohe River." Hetao? If so, please be the vanguard, and if you lose the first battle, I would like to come and see you!"

Gao Wushi was slightly startled, then laughed, pointed at him and scolded, "I thought you were a militant more than ten years ago, and I thought you should be more stable after all these years. It's still exactly the same as before... Who said I'm going out of Dongchang Castle to fry flowers?"

Zhang Wanbang was taken aback for a moment, then hesitantly said: "If you don't sell fried flowers, then Enxian will come to Liaodong after transferring some of us Xuanda generals..."

Gao Wushi was a little surprised when he heard it, and thought to himself: Hey, this kid is not just looking for war, it seems that he has analyzed the situation in Liaodong.

Gao Wushi glanced at Ma Chengen, who was calm and unmoved, and asked Ma Chengen, "What is Chengen thinking?"

Ma Chengen got up immediately, bowed his hands and said: "Muen Ma of the Ma family has been under the Bingxian family for a long time. Chengen came here and got instructions from his uncle and uncle. You should not make any claims first, you must listen to the orders of the Bingxian Lord, and then do your best. It is enough to try to achieve Lord Bingxian's intention, so Cheng En has nothing to think about for the time being."

Gao Yushi was a little surprised that he added "adult" after the word "Bingxian", because at this time there was no custom of calling people "adult" casually. younger generation.

Of course, Gao Wushi discussed friendship with Ma Gui's peers very early on, and Ma Chengen admitted that there is nothing wrong with being a junior, but after all, Ma Chengen is seven or eight years older than him. Awesome... This shows that a child without a father is sensible early!
Since you are a junior, then you, as an elder, naturally have to take care of you, don't you?

Gao Wushi looked at him, and suddenly understood him: perhaps in his opinion, the key to Ma Chengxun's success in the Monan War was that Ma Jin was in power, and Ma Chengxun got more opportunities.Although brothers Ma Jin and Ma Gui took good care of his nephew, after all, uncles and uncles are still inferior to their own fathers. No matter how much they take care of them, the court will actually prefer to use their own sons, so... …his chances are more his own to fight for.

Right now, great opportunities are in front of him, and unlike Zhang Wanbang, who met Gao Yushi more than ten years ago, he must have a more correct attitude in order to win more reuse.

The so-called sensible, this is it.

Gao Wushi nodded, pondered for a while, and said: "The soldiers will definitely move, but not yet. First, we need to make some arrangements for government affairs, and prepare military equipment, food and grass in advance; second...the soldiers and horses in southern Liaoning , I think I'm afraid I can't afford such a heavy responsibility. Although the two of you have brought some accompanying servants, it is estimated that there are only a few hundred, which is definitely not enough. So now the two of you and even Ma Chongzhai (Ma Dong) have the task , not to go to war, but to train the soldiers in southern Liaoning according to my arrangement first."

Ma Chengen and Zhang Wanbang looked at each other, and at the same time cupped their hands: "You must do your best in a humble position!"
