"The general is here!"

"Master Taibao, it's Mr. Taibao!"

The outside of the east gate of Jinan City has largely restored its old appearance. Along the perimeter of the city wall are temporary buildings such as tea sheds. Villagers on both sides.

The city needs supplies, including all kinds of vegetables, fresh meat, fish, and eggs. These things are definitely not available in the city, and can only be supplemented by the surrounding villages. Of course, Jinan City is no exception. The capital city of the province, which is the thoroughfare from north to south, has more outlying residents, and the vehicles, horses, and crowds on the official road are denser than other cities. [

Usually, when eight o'clock in the morning comes, the fishmongers and vegetable farmers rushing to the morning market have already sold out the goods they drove to the city. They generally have fixed supply points, and it is unlikely that there will be people who can't sell their goods when they push their carts An embarrassing scene. After the daylight, everyone was exhausted, but there was a satisfied smile on their faces. A cart of goods could be exchanged for three or five yuan in scattered silver taels. After deducting the cost, at least The net income that can drop one or two renminbi, ranging from two or three liang to as much as four or five liang a month, can always earn food and clothing for the whole family.

Only those who sell firewood and work hard are still carrying poles at this time. They are either trying to sell the firewood they have collected, or they are still waiting for their employers to hire them, or they are carrying goods, or carrying sedan chairs, or It is the business that places the goods and works hard. After all, this day must be done. If you don't do it for a day, there will be a famine for a day.

But on this day, whether it is the vegetable farmers and fishermen who are already in small groups, pushing their carts home, or those who work hard, those who work hard, those who work hard in sedan chairs, or those who carry hills like firewood Chai Fu, or those gentlemen in long gowns made of silk, or businessmen in Wufu shirts and six-in-one caps, or ordinary citizens, whether young or old, young or old Girl and daughter-in-law... In the entire Jinan City and the entire Dongcheng area, people came out from almost every household. The shopkeeper of the firm ran out with his buddies, the storyteller threw away the bamboo board, and the trick seller led the monkey. The Lord is still wearing an apron... Everyone is crazy, throwing everything away, and everyone swarms towards the east gate.

The reason for this scene is also very simple... Zhang Shouren is here!

The newly appointed Taibao, Zuozhuguo, Doctor Yinqing Guanglu, General, Earl, Zuodudu of the Zuojun Governor's Mansion, Shandong Town's Admiral and Chief Military Officer... so many titles are added to one person, and the recipient of the title In his twenties, there is no one who can achieve his ambitions. I am afraid that within a hundred years, no one will be able to create such a miracle as Zhang Shouren.

Such young and heroic miraculous characters have long been compiled into storytelling, and in the teahouses and restaurants throughout the north, they have become all kinds of jokes for storytellers to eat. In front of my eyes, and leading my troops to guard Jinan, if there is such a big excitement and I don't go to see it, wouldn't it be crazy to get lost?

Under this kind of mentality, many officials' sedan chairs are like a flat boat in the sea, floating back and forth among the tide-like crowd, even if there are guards and guards making noises to chase people away, or to fight Using gongs, or simply using whips, anyway, there is no way to disperse these people who are driven by curiosity.

Even decades later, when Jinan people at that time mentioned that Zhang Shouren became the general soldier of Shandong, his entire strength and foundation, including popularity, had undergone earth-shaking changes. In this situation, everyone still had a smile on their faces, as if Zhang Shouren's glory was also their glory.

In fact, this is also the case. After Zhang Shouren's various honors and successes, or when he really took over the world, the city of Jinan still maintained a relatively close relationship and connection with him... In any case, his initial stage It was when Denglai was in Fushan and became famous all over the world and stepped into the door of success. The key to open this door was indeed in Jinan...

"Master Taibao, you have eaten breakfast at my house. Do you still remember me, Du Laosan? My breakfast shop specializes in pancakes and camellia oil. You always love them!"

"You're a fart, even a pot of oil tea? Junmen, do you still remember the restaurant of my old Gong's family? Taibai Linfeng, you have always ordered Ximian three times at my house!"

"The Taibao..."

It's also thanks to these small businessmen who squeezed in front, their faces were full of smiles, and they tried their best to make friends with Zhang Shouren who was riding in the front, and they didn't know what they were trying to do.However, their yelling so loudly has an effect, and many people in the city have remembered that the general likes them, and we will try it tomorrow when we are free.

Zhang Shouren helped people put up a live advertisement invisibly, but of course he didn't care about it in his capacity. On the horse, he smiled all over his face and waved his arms non-stop at the folks and elders in Jinan.

Behind him, there are Fushan soldiers wearing military uniforms. Different from the surprise of seeing Fushan military uniforms in other places, Jinan has long been used to such neat and simple military uniforms that exude masculine might... There are really some in the market. A lot of rambunctious clothes were copied by tailors, but Xibei's products are not as good as the original ones, and they don't look good no matter how they are worn.

Of course they don't know, for these soldiers to look good in this military uniform, how many hours do they have to stand for the military posture in hot and cold weather? After a day, they will either sweat and collapse, or their hands and feet will crack... Only in this way can they wear The military uniforms look good, and they look like one. Those young boys who have never stood in a military posture for a day, no matter how good the fabric is, no matter how imitated, once they put it on, they feel awkward, which is not the case at all.

It's just that when the army filed in and entered the city, in the eyes of many caring people, it showed a completely different color from that of ordinary people.

Coming from Linqing this time, Zhang Shouren led only 500 troops, a total of more than [-] soldiers and horses, and many of them were heavy soldiers. The horses lost weight in the summer after two long journeys back. The horses were left in Linqing City. There was plenty of beans, and they were grazing and stocked by some of the heavy soldiers. Summer and autumn were a good time for war horses to grow fat and accumulate strength.

Even a draft horse should be used with care, and it's time to fatten it up. [

Most of the engineers and soldiers and most of the horses were left behind, plus the 3000 people that Qu Rui took away, and some soldiers and horses had to be left to guard Linqing. It is indeed the limit to squeeze out 500 people to Jinan. .

At this time, the number of soldiers and horses of more than 1000 people is indeed a bit thin. Among the crowd of more than 10 people, no matter how chilling and neat the Fushan soldiers are, in the eyes of those who are interested, more than [-] people are indeed Sprinkle a little pepper noodles in a big pot of soup, it doesn't look like mountains and water, it's not shocking, and this effect confirms their guess... Fushan soldiers and horses are fine but not many , is not irresistible!

"Ni, the governor of Shandong Province..."

"Zhongcheng, are you still playing this game with me?"

Among the civil and military officials to welcome, the governor of Shandong should be the most important. After all, he is a third-rank governor with the title of Minister of the Ministry of War. Importantly, Ni Chong was awarded the title of third-rank servant last year, which can be regarded as a high position and weight, but compared with Zhang Shouren, Ni Chong was naturally aggrieved.

While he was kneeling at the city gate, announcing his job title, and handing over the notebook, Zhang Shouren had already dismounted from his horse, strode over, grabbed Ni Chong's hands, and said with a big smile, "If you do this, what will my brother do in the future?" See you again? Back when I was the deputy commander in chief and Zhong Cheng was the governor of Shandong, I was supposed to kneel down to meet the military gate, but Zhong Cheng always treated each other with respect. The history of the future is like a hook, don’t you say that I, Zhang, is a villain?”

This is absurd... At the beginning, Ni Chong was the light commander, Zhang Shouren had the military power in his hands, and Jinan was under his control. Of course, Ni Chong should be polite, but now he is talking about the events of the year. In Ni Chong's ears, he didn't know whether it was joy or sadness.

"Si Gou, the chief envoy of the next official, is so good..."

"Old dog, old acquaintance..."

"Uh……"

"I know Huang Ke from Jinan Prefecture..."

"well."

"Xiaguan Huang Yinchang, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Shandong Town..."

Huang Yinchang was very tall and tall, with a beautiful beard, two big eyes, and a high nose bridge. At first glance, he looked like the kind of straightforward guy with an open heart. Zhang Shouren liked him at first sight, but he was not Ni Chong. Waiting for people to greet with a smile like that, but staring at Vice President Huang seriously for a few times, then nodded, and said: "Vice President Huang, your soldiers and horses still need to be trained more rigorously."

"Yes, the end will know."

"It's useless to get its shape but not its spirit."

"Xie Taibao lord for enlightening..."

"Okay, I will send competent people to help you train your subordinates again. As for the effect, we will see in three months."

Huang Yinchang's subordinates are the city guard camp, with less than 2000 people, and they are also the most powerful force in Shandong Township in Jinan.Previously, Fushan secretly sent people in to train with the business group. Ni Chong watched the camp exercise and was full of praise. However, Zhang Shouren picked his nose and eyes, which was strange. He agreed, and it was obvious that he was very convinced and had no resistance.

"The general, please enter the city!" After most of the officials signed up to meet him, Ni Chong gave up his hand, and said solemnly: "All the soldiers and people in Jinan City have respected the general for a long time!"
