Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Wu Shigong didn't return to his camp until it was close to dinner.The camp set up by the Henan army was a little far from the Chinese army where Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian were located, and had to pass through the camps of several friendly troops.

The closest to the Henan Army is of course Liu Zeqing's Shandong Army.I haven't seen each other for a while, but the two of them are quite affectionate after meeting.Liu Zeqing stopped Wu Shigong to drink and chat together.Wu Shigong also readily agreed, anyway, there is no rush to send off these officials and eunuchs in Dengzhou City, so why not have a good chat with Liu Zeqing here.

But what surprised Wu Shigong was that when Liu Zeqing knew that Wu Shigong was going to deliver the rescued officials and eunuchs in Dengzhou City, he immediately left Wu Shigong behind and received them courteously and courteously.

But Wu Shigong watched Liu Zeqing interacting with these people calmly, and couldn't help but feel a little nauseous.It's not that I dislike Liu Zeqing's actions, but I deeply admire Liu Zeqing's strong sense of smell and nerves.

After drinking and eating, Wu Shigong went through several camps of friendly troops, and finally arrived at the Chinese army where Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian were, and came to ask to see these two adults.

And these days, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian are also worrying.Although the battle to encircle and suppress Kong Youde's rebels went smoothly, it has now fallen into a long-term siege. In addition, they learned from their respective relationships that Emperor Chongzhen was somewhat dissatisfied with spending too much military pay. Therefore, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian always wanted to send some good news to Emperor Chongzhen to reassure him.

So when Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian learned that Wu Shigong had rescued the officials and eunuchs in Dengzhou City, they were immediately overjoyed, and by the way, they also changed their views on Wu Shigong and gained some favor.So it was immediately rumored that Wu Shigong brought those people into the tent of the Chinese army to meet him.

The two adults are really good at nourishing qi, and they also look calm under the influence of the strange smell.And I am also interested in asking about the process of Wu Shigong's rescue.

Of course Wu Shigong will not confess that he invented the curved shell.He began to run the train with his mouth full, saying: Shooting leaflets into Dengzhou City.Afterwards, the rebels were photographed by Wang Shi's prestige and felt the merit of enlightenment, crying bitterly and shouting to give these officials and eunuchs to Wu Shigong.

Of course, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian are well aware of Wu Shigong's bragging.But they didn't break it down at all.why?Is that because it's not a good source material?Use indoctrination to make the rebels weak.This requires storytelling and interestingness. Emperor Chongzhen will be very satisfied with such a memorial.

Of course, Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian would not think that no one in the court would see through this.However, who would be so ignorant to disturb the interest of Emperor Chongzhen and tear off the emperor's new clothes on him?

Besides.These officials and eunuchs were indeed rescued, and the result is all clear!As for whether Emperor Chongzhen will find out in the future, anyway, these are all reported by the stupid Dusi in front of him. Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian just uploaded the truth. If there is any blame, let the stupid Dusi bear it himself.

So Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian looked at Wu Shigong more pleasingly.They just wanted to credit Wu Shigong, but they didn't expect this stupid boss to really act stupidly in the Chinese army account.

Of course Wu Shigong wanted to perform like this on purpose.Otherwise, he could have sent someone to send these officials and eunuchs to the Chinese army.Why do you need to make a trip by yourself?

The point of Wu Shigong's sarcasm is to cry for poverty.And it was crying poor in front of the elders of Dengzhou City who entered the camp of the Chinese army.Anyway, Wu Shigong wanted everything, carts, mules, food, gunpowder... Wu Shigong even asked for paper.After making the leaflets, Wu Shigong realized that paper from the Ming Dynasty was expensive enough.

After arriving in the south of Dengzhou City, because Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian didn't want to see each other, the Henan Army's supply was only maintained at a minimum level.

But Wu Shigong wasn't afraid that the two coaches would get stuck, he had Zhu Dadian's warrant.So these days.Some nearby prefectures and counties were overwhelmed by the grain requisition team sent by the Henan Army.And Wu Shigong was not afraid of Zhu Dadian's withdrawal of the warrant, at most he would tell Zhu Dadian that the warrant was used by Wu Shigong as toilet paper.Anyway, it is a matter of no proof.

Wu Shigong's sarcasm completely wiped out Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian's face.After all, there are still the three elders in Dengzhou City in the tent of the Chinese army, but it is impossible to reprimand Wu Shigong indiscriminately, after all, Wu Shigong is the savior of these elders.So Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian had to watch Wu Shigong's performance in embarrassment.

And what Wu Shigong wanted was this effect.His performance is even more swaying freely.But when he frothed and talked nonsense for a while.He bowed to the three elders and said: "All the elders, please comment on this reason for the students!" All the people in the Chinese army tent almost fainted.

Zhu Dadian asked Wu Shigong in disbelief, "Wu Dusi also has fame?"

Wu Shigong replied triumphantly: "The student is a scholar of Shuntian Mansion!" Of course Wu Shigong had to involve himself as a scholar at this time.Because in the Ming Dynasty, scholars could still reason with each other.But scholars can be unreasonable to military officers.If Zhu Dadian and Gao Qi got into a fire and used violence to drive Wu Shigong out of the Chinese army regardless of face, Wu Shigong would have nowhere to complain.

Zhu Dadian looked at Wu Shigong's villainous face with disgust, and thought in his heart: "You are really a disgrace to a scholar!"

In the end, it was Zhu Dadian who suppressed Wu Shigong's arrogance.Because he found out that Wu Shigong had just drunk.The matter of drinking in the army can be big or small, and under normal circumstances, there is no binding force on senior military officers like Wu Shigong.But if Zhu Dadian insisted on pursuing it, it would be no problem to beat Wu Shigong with dozens of military sticks.

So Zhu Dadian was hypocritically furious and wanted to punish Wu Shigong with military law, and the three elders would definitely come forward to intercede for Wu Shigong, and Wu Shigong also went down the slope to thank the governor and the military supervisor for their generosity.

In the end, Wu Shigong's military merits were offset by his merits and demerits, and he only got [-] shi of grain and ten carts of gunpowder sent by Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian.And... and two hundred dollars of paper.Zhu Dadian and Gao Qiqian still hope that Wu Shigong will make persistent efforts.

When returning to the camp, Wu Shigong looked at the greatly shrunk supplies, and sighed in his heart: "The details really determine the success or failure! It's fine if you don't drink at noon!"

So Wu Shigong was very unhappy when he returned to Daying. He told Yang Rusong, "Immediately let those Fans wash them three times, or they will become tasteless. After dinner, bring them here."

Second Lieutenant Gonzalez and other 31 Portuguese entered Wu Shigong's big tent, and suddenly entered the brightly lit big tent from the dark, which made the eyes of Gonzalez and others a little uncomfortable.After squinting his eyes and getting used to it for a while, Gonzalez finally saw the situation in the big tent clearly: he only saw a young Ming general sitting behind the big case in the tent with a serious face.

Gonzalez hesitated for a moment, then bent down and bowed deeply, and said: "Dear General, we are Frangji from the West. We are invited by Minister Sun Yuanhua of the Ming Dynasty to teach firearms for the Ming army. Fighting. Faithfully thank you for your rescue. God bless you!"

Maybe Gonzalez was a little excited, so he spoke a little fast.Wu Shigong was also very familiar with that tone when he heard it, it was the taste of Hong Kong people speaking Mandarin.However, I am not afraid of the heavens and the earth, but I am afraid that the Cantonese speak the official language!Coupled with the fact that Gonzalez has a Portuguese accent mixed in, how could it be understood by Wu Shigong?

So Wu Shigong took the big case impatiently and said loudly, "What did you say?"

Seeing that Wu Shigong seemed to be angry, Yang Rusong misunderstood what Wu Shigong meant.He immediately pulled out his waist knife and shouted loudly at Gonzalez and the others: "Don't you see that our adults know how to salute? Kneel down and kowtow to me!"

Seeing that the guards in the big tent drew out their shining waist knives, Gonzalez and the others knelt down and kowtowed without hesitation.People are knives and I am fish, so I can't do without kowtow.

In fact, when Westerners came to China at that time, they did not resist kneeling and kowtowing at all. They were nothing more than doing as the Romans did.Besides, when seeing the Pope in the West, many nobles also knelt down and kissed the Pope's shoes. This kind of etiquette is also practiced in the West.As for why Westerners are not even willing to kowtow to the Chinese emperor in the future, it is nothing more than that they have looked down on the backward China.

But Wu Shigong really enjoyed the process.Seeing the high-spirited Caucasians in modern times kneeling at his feet with their buttocks pouting, Wu Shigong felt a sense of pride spontaneously.Wu Shigong thought proudly in his heart: "The century-old national humiliation has finally been broken since I crossed over!"

So Wu Shigong's mood suddenly turned cloudy.After all, they still have to win over these foreigners.So after they kowtowed a few times, Wu Shigong said with a smile: "Get up, stand up and talk!"

After all, Westerners are straight-minded. After hearing Wu Shigong's words, they all got up from the ground.But at this time, people like Gonzales looked at Wu Shigong with some fear.They have been imprisoned for too long, and they have become a group of frightened birds.

Wu Shigong slowed down his speech as much as possible, and asked Gonzalez, "Can you understand what I said?"

Gonzalez replied: "Understand, General!" Gonzalez spoke very slowly this time, and Wu Shigong, who had been influenced by Cantonese songs for many years, understood Gonzalez's words.

"That's good! What's your surname, sir?" Wu Shigong asked again.

"General, my surname is Gang!" Gonzalez had been in China for a long time, so he introduced his surname in the Chinese way. (To be continued..)
