Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

But seeing that Wu Shigong had been gaining the upper hand, Yu Zilian couldn't be angry after all, so no matter what, he had to put forward his own conditions in reverse: "Then I also have a matter for Vice General Wu to agree to!"

"Oh?" Wu Shigong was also a little strange.Could it be that Yu Zilian didn't know who helped whom?So he asked: "Yu Zhizhou, please tell me!"

"The rest of the matter is up to you! But there is one thing that is different. Those who descended are all landless people. Except for those who are stubborn, they will be severely punished, and the rest of the people hope that they will inspire the emperor. I don't agree with the division of Deputy General Wu. Let the descendants choose their own camp!"

Wu Shigong glanced at Yu Zilian, and understood that what Yu Zilian said before was all nonsense, the key point was what he said later, that Yu Zilian wanted to select more prisoners and expand the strength of the Ruzhou Army again.

Wu Shigong didn't care about this, because in Pingjing, the Runing Army had captured enough prisoners, but Wu Shigong would not let Yu Zilian choose all the strong and strong, but put the burden on his own Runing Army.So Wu Shigong replied: "Yes! But only the able-bodied can choose, and the old and the weak are divided according to the proportion of the able-bodied."

Wu Shigong secretly smiled that Yu Zilian would definitely steal the chicken without breaking the bank.Although the captives captured by Wu Shigong were all used as serfs and mine slaves, after all, they lived a stable life and would not starve to death. Only those with brain twitches would choose Yu Zilian's Ruzhou Army.

But Wu Shigong never imagined that it was not those captives who were brain-twitching, but himself.After the meeting, Yu Zilian sent people to the prison camp to mobilize, and all the prisoners joined the Ruzhou army.

Wu Shigong absolutely didn't know that his reputation was different from the inside and outside. In addition, the captives who didn't know the Runing Army always believed in civilian officials, and the soldiers of the Ruzhou Army promoted their beloved Yu Zhizhou, so the Runing Army who didn't do much propaganda was No prisoners were taken at all.When Yu Zilian sent the old and the weak among the captives back to Ruzhou, he selected the strong and strong ones for reorganization, and unexpectedly pulled up another [-] troops.

Wu Shigong was dumbfounded in surprise.He was too embarrassed to break the promise, so he could only watch helplessly as the Ruzhou Army regained its vitality.Wu Shigong couldn't help but wonder: Was Yu Zilian a cockroach in his previous life?

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng had succeeded the governor of the five provinces, and the new governor of Henan, Li Xianfeng, had also taken office. When they realized that there was such a big gap in the border of Henan, they immediately led the Tianxiong Army and the main force of Henan to plug the gap.

But these matters have nothing to do with Wu Shigong and Yu Zilian.After all, the garrison area of ​​one of them is in Runing, and the other is the prefect of Ruzhou, so no matter what they do, they must first ensure the peace of their own area.

Therefore, after cleaning up the battlefield and playing the battle report, the two armies did not pursue the defeated Ma Shouying troops who fled westward at all.They returned together and went home separately.And Wu Shigong also took a step ahead, and returned to Runing on August 23 with his personal troops.

This time the Runing Army will leave the rotation training regiments when they pass through Ye County, and then will transfer new rotation training troops from each legion to replace the troops that have already been trained in rotation.Form a new rotation training regiment.

And Zhou Xun will also rush to Ye County to unify the command of the troops in Ye County.In the future, Wu Shigong will not go out often.It is necessary to exercise the independent command ability of the subordinate generals.

back home.Wu Shigong first took stock of what he had gained, and it should be said that it greatly exceeded the previous estimate.What makes Wu Shigong even more happy is that the business of the Runing Army Headquarters is also booming, and the current income has begun to exceed the expenses of the Runing Army.And the Runing Army finally had hematopoietic function, which made Wu Shigong finally no longer worry about financial issues.

In order to prevent restlessness in the inner house, Wu Shigong kept himself clean this time.He rejected the beautiful woman selected by his officers from among the captives.But just like that, Wu Shigong also encountered troubles. His housekeeper Liu Yuan was punished by Deng Qifan and beaten twenty with a cane.

What is the reason?Of course it was Wu Shigong who was coquettish with Mama Li's golden house!In fact, it turned out that Wu Shigong acted outside.Although he thought he was doing it very secretly, it had already spread throughout the inner house, but those wives just pretended to be deaf and dumb in front of Wu Shigong.

But as soon as Wu Shigong left, Wu Shigong's wives took action. Through the guards in the inner house, they intentionally or unintentionally spread the news to Deng Qifan's ears.

Deng Qifan was immediately furious, but it was not entirely because of Wu Shigong's flirtatiousness, the most important thing was for Wu Shigong's safety.

One must know that the place where Wu Shigong and Li's mother had a tryst was in the city of Runing Mansion, and there was no effective protection from the Runing Army at all.And Li's mother often brought some women from outside to give Wu Shigong a taste. If assassins were mixed in, the damage to the Runing army would definitely be fatal.

At this time, the Runing Army is no longer Wu Shigong's private property, but the common cause of all the upper-level civil and military members of the Runing Army. Therefore, Deng Qifan also changed his practice of not interfering in Wu Shigong's private affairs, and immediately ordered the house to be closed. A room was found in the Runing Army camp to house Mother Li.

In order to tactfully persuade Wu Shigong, Deng Qifan also punished Liu Yuan, the "culprit" housekeeper.But Liu Yuan was really wronged!He didn't know anything about Wu Shigong and Li's mother, so he was spanked unjustly.

But there is no reason to say this, the master made a mistake, of course the servant must be punished.As the head servant of Wu Shigong's house, Liu Yuan...even if Liu Yuan is unlucky!

Deng Qifan also ordered Wu Shigong's guards to absolutely not allow Wu Shigong to go out to make trouble, and when Wu Shigong came back, he even remonstrated face to face.Because Deng Qifan also had good intentions, so in the end, Wu Shigong had no choice but to agree. His happy life of picking wild flowers ended after such a short period of glory!

And Wu Shigong's return this time is also because the Runing Army has some urgent matters that Wu Shigong needs to deal with.

The first is the opening of the futures exchange.Because it is unclear what the futures are doing, the business of the futures exchange is quite deserted.

So Wu Shigong ordered that the owners of various farm villages gather all farm households to collect funds for grain futures trading, stabilize the income of farm households, and prevent farm households from being hurt by low grain prices and poor supply.

This is actually the original intention of futures trading.However, modern futures trading has almost forgotten this function, and they all use huge leverage to speculate to obtain huge profits.

Then the news of Zheng Zhilong finally came back.Because the time limit was up, Zhang Rubao and the others had already returned to Runing, and they, together with Zheng Jiao and shopkeeper Zheng, were waiting for Wu Shigong's return.

Zhang Rubao's affairs were easy to handle, and Wu Shigong announced in person: After he was appointed as the commander of the navy and the head of the navy and marine regiment, he took the returned personnel to Xinyang to take up his post.

The more complicated thing is to discuss with Zheng Jiao about Zheng Zhilong's borrowing of troops. (To be continued..)
