Daming wolf ride

Chapter 273 There is still a younger sister in the family

1 taels of silver to lend you some soldiers, this business is still a good deal, your Sichuan army is so poor that you can’t even make up the silver for gifts, and seeing the sergeant freeze to death and frostbite, why don’t you borrow some from me, it’s beneficial to both of you and me, At least I am not short of money.

Shi Dayong still has some confidence in successfully borrowing soldiers.However, Deng Ke's reaction was not within his expectations, he stood there in a daze, without answering for a long time.

Usually this appearance only means one thing - the person doesn't want to borrow, and they don't know how to refuse, so they can only keep silent and hope that you will quit in spite of the difficulties, which is good for both parties.If you speak out, it will hurt your face.

After waiting and waiting, Deng Ke still couldn't express his opinion. Shi Dayong's heart fell to the bottom of the valley, knowing that this matter seemed hopeless, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.

It is always unpleasant to waste 1 taels of silver, but it is always better to be able to help those Sichuan soldiers who are short of food and clothing.After all, they are all soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and the armed forces of the country. It is also fate to be able to gather in this ice and snow field from thousands of miles away.If you can pull one, just pull it, if you can't borrow soldiers, forget it, maybe you can pull brothers in other ways in the future. [

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and said that since Mr. Deng was in a difficult situation, then let this matter go, and don't take the matter of money to heart, and it is Shi's heart for the brothers in the Sichuan Army.

Just as he was about to speak, Deng Ke moved unexpectedly. After staring at Shi Dayong's mask, he asked calmly, "I wonder how many soldiers General Shi wants to borrow?"

accepted?Shi Dayong was startled, without thinking, he blurted out: "Two thousand."

"two thousand?"

Deng Ke nodded without showing any surprise or embarrassment, but after a while, he shook his head and said: "I have only five thousand soldiers under my command, so I will lend you two thousand at once, which will inevitably arouse suspicion. If Eunuch Gao asks, I'm not good at explaining."

These words made Shi Dayong stand up again, feeling that these words seemed to mean a tactful refusal.But what Deng Ke said afterwards made his eyes light up again.

Deng Ke continued: "However, if Wang Hong is also willing to lend you a thousand soldiers, and our two families will each lend a thousand, then this matter will not arouse suspicion."

Hearing this, Shi Dayong was overjoyed, and said a little excitedly: "Your Excellency, you are willing to borrow troops from me?"

Seeing that Shi Dayong was a little excited, Deng Ke laughed instead, and said, "Thanks to you, General Shi, who think highly of my brothers from the Sichuan Army, and asked Deng to borrow troops, why would Deng refuse to do so?" Speaking of this, Deng Ke sighed , "Brothers are living a hard life with Deng. If they can eat a few full meals with you and not be frozen to death, it will be their blessing."

Hearing this, Shi Dayong hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my lord. I will treat all brothers from the Sichuan army equally when they come to our camp, and I will never be prejudiced. All of them should be supplied to my Jinzhou soldiers. In addition, all the 2000 people should be equipped and equipped. I, Shi Dayong, will be in charge of the food and pay, and I must not be distracted by adults, Shi can do what he says, so don't worry about it, my lord!"

"Don't call me an adult or not. Outsiders don't know. How can Deng not know? Our Sichuan army is just a role in the eyes of the court princes, but your Liao army is a treasure in the eyes of the court. Compared with us, it is really a world.

Speaking of which, brother Shi, a general, is more important than Deng, a general. If brother Shi thinks highly of Deng, we will be brothers in the future.Everyone is a guest army, and they are all subject to high-qi potential, so maybe they will win each other over at any time. "Deng Ke said very emotionally, sincerely, not fake at all, obviously every sentence came from the heart.

Suddenly, with a thought, he blurted out: "If you don't dislike it, how about Deng and you becoming friends of eight obeisances?"

Shi Dayong laughed: "It's my wish, to be able to make a sworn oath with your lord, and the last general will be at the top!"

The other party agreed, and Deng Ke couldn't help being overjoyed. He raised his hand and pointed to the sky, and said solemnly: "We don't talk about such vain etiquette when we wait for a martial artist. What kind of incense case is there? From now on, you and I will be brothers. Depending on our age, I'm afraid you won't be as good as you I'm older, so I'll ask you to be the big brother."

Shi Dayong hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Brother is on top, please accept my bow!"

Deng Ke was older than him, so Shi Dayong naturally wouldn't rob this elder brother, and he hit it off quite well with him. Unlike other military commanders, Deng Ke still had a bit of genuine temperament in him, and he would not bow to himself if he swore to him.

"Congratulations to the two adults for their marriage to Jinlan!"

The sworn brotherhood came so suddenly, Jiang Wanli and Shao Wu were a little confused, but the general was able to become a brother with a general officer, and the subordinates were naturally happy for him.Although Deng Ke's Sichuan Army was incapable of fighting, it still had thousands of people. Together with Wang Hong's several thousand people, its strength should not be underestimated. To a certain extent, it became the Austrian aid of the Jinzhou Army. With the help of Sichuan Army's strength, the second general thought so without being completely passive. [

"My virtuous brother, please get up quickly!" Deng Ke was sincerely happy, stepped forward to help Shi Dayong, patted his chest and said, "Brother, there is no problem in lending you a thousand soldiers, but if Wang Hong can borrow it, you have to ask him." I know. But I don’t think it’s a big problem, I’m afraid he can’t wish for a thousand soldiers less, and it just happens to be able to eat 1000 more soldiers.”

Shi Dayong thanked him very much: "Wang Hong will ask my elder brother to help me a lot. After the matter is completed, my younger brother will definitely be grateful."

Deng Ke waved his hand and said, "It's fine if you don't thank me. Although it's good to be a brother, you will never covet your brother's money. As long as you treat these two thousand brothers well. Besides, you have paid 1 taels for the two of us." Silver, how can I still ask you to spend more money. This soldier lent you a trivial matter, if you don’t return it, there is no problem, just treat it as a gift from my elder brother to you, and the big deal will be reported to be killed in battle in the future That’s right, maybe I can still get some stipends for my brother.” Deng Yuguo is a true character, and he doesn’t shy away from disobedience at all, and he even bluntly said that he would engulf the court’s stipends by declaring these 1000 people to die in battle, which shows that he Now he really sees Shi Dayong as his own brother.

Hearing that Deng Ke said that the soldiers were not to be returned, Shi Dayong was slightly taken aback, he did not plan to return them at first, and if Deng Ke wanted someone in the future, he would delay the deal.How can this well-trained soldier be returned to him? Wouldn't it be a real miscalculation in this way.But Deng Ke said so generously, which made him a little ashamed. He was counting on others' soldiers, but they made it clear that they would not return them. In comparison, it seemed that Deng Ke was much nobler than himself.As for how Deng Ke reported the death of those 1000 people, Shi Dayong didn't care about it. If it were him, he would probably do the same.

Shi Dayong is lucky, if it is changed to ten years later, no matter how much money he pays, Deng Ke will not give him a soldier, because by that time, the soldier will really be the guard of the generals. With capital, you have everything if you have soldiers. Without soldiers, you are just a shit.Now, it has not yet become a common practice for generals to support their own self-respect, and to support bandits with self-respect. Most of the soldiers are still in awe of the imperial power and loyal to state affairs.

Deng Ke talked to Shi Dayong about the details of how to hand over the thousand soldiers without being noticed by outsiders. When they were about the same, Deng Ke suddenly asked in a strange way: "Oh, by the way, where is my brother's house? Is the family a prominent family, or is the family engaged in business, or has relatives who are officials in the court?"

What does he ask this for?Shi Dayong was stunned for a moment, didn't hide anything, and replied instinctively: "My younger brother is from Changping, his family background is ordinary, his parents have passed away long ago, my younger brother joined the army with his elder brother since he was a child, and after his elder brother died in Yongping, unfortunately, his family has been in trouble."

Shi Dayong originally wanted to say that there would be no one at home, but for some reason, he was shocked and remembered that the owner of the body seemed to have a younger sister at home!

Khan, after possessing this body for so long, he even forgot about his younger sister, Shi Dayong was very ashamed, his face was very embarrassing.

"There is a younger sister in the family, and I heard that she is married to a talented scholar in this county." I almost used the word "heard of", but luckily changed my words quickly. After speaking, Shi Dayong still blushed a little embarrassingly.

Speaking of this sister, Shi Dayong is a bit unkind. It has been a few months since he came to this era, but he hasn't given this sister a single letter, and he hasn't given him any property, let alone how his sister is doing. He is also a high-ranking military general of the imperial court, so it is only natural for him to take care of his younger sister's family, but he just forgot about this younger sister.He didn't even think of going back to Changping even when he went to Beijing to offer a victory. If the owner of the body knew about it, he would definitely scold him for being so heartless as a person who snatched the house.

Hearing Shi Dayong's remarks, Deng Ke couldn't help being surprised: "With my brother's family background, how can he make such a big deal?" The implication is naturally that he paid 1 taels of silver for himself and 5 taels of silver for Lin Jiantai. 6 taels of silver is a huge sum of money. If the family is a big family, or the family is in business, it is naturally not a big sum, but with the support of the family, anyone will be surprised to take out such a large sum of money at once.

"To tell you the truth, brother, when I was in Shahe, I got a batch of property from the traitor Chen Youshi, which was worth tens of thousands of taels of silver. This man has never been fond of such extraneous things. As long as the money is worthwhile, it will be all If it’s spent, my younger brother won’t frown. At worst, I’ll earn it later.” Shi Dayong told Deng Ke frankly where the money came from.

Hearing this answer, Deng Ke suddenly realized that it is normal for the generals to hide and seize it privately, but it would be abnormal if the leader of the army won the battle and did not keep the profit of the war.

He said with emotion: "I have known for a long time that my brother is a hero. Compared with my brother, my elder brother is very stingy."

Shi Dayong laughed and said: "Brother doesn't have any extra money, if one day he can make a fortune like this with younger brother, I'm afraid he is also a local rich man, ha ha."

"It's getting late, brother, how about resting in my tent for a night?" Seeing that the night was dark and it was surprisingly cold, Deng Ke decided to let Shi Dayong and his party rest in peace in his camp.

But Shi Dayong said: "There is still a cadre waiting in the battalion, and they are not at ease if they don't get the exact news. The elder brother is kind and the brother is grateful, but the younger brother should go back, otherwise the people below will not feel at ease. .”

Deng Ke nodded understandingly: "Alright, then I won't send you off for my brother. I will go to Wang Hong tomorrow to talk about borrowing troops, and I will send someone to notify you at that time."

"Brother Lao, don't worry."

At that moment, Shi Dayong thanked Deng Ke solemnly, and then, escorted by Deng Ke, he left the camp of the Sichuan Army and went straight back to Pingdugou.

Early the next morning, Lin Jiantai sent two people over. [
