Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 700 Gritting Teeth and Swallowing Blood

Hearing Xie Ziran's confession of Qiu Yue's poisonous plan, Su Mu was extremely angry.

But there was a gentle smile on the surface, he really got up, and Xie who was kneeling on the ground helped him up naturally, "Jun Fu, in fact, you took the troops and never came back, with your means, the trouble here There is such a big movement, how could it be possible not to know. I only need to think a little, and I know that there must be something wrong. You can come out at a critical moment, which shows that you are not confused about national justice. This person is in the big joint As long as you stand firm on the top, you are an upright gentleman, but it doesn't matter about the small details."

Xie Ranran was ashamed: "Thank you, the scholar, for the blow. Xiaosheng has been taught. Even if Xiaosheng is desperate for his life, he still needs to be well protected by the scholar."

After speaking, he gritted his teeth and straightened his body, took out flint from his arms and lit a torch, and threw it on the cart.

Seeing the blazing flames, some folks asked in surprise: "Xie Xianggong, why are you doing this?"

Xie Ziran shouted loudly: "It's just a dozen or so carts of belongings, and it's only about a hundred taels of silver. It's nothing. Don't burn it, pack lightly and go on the road, don't delay Xueshi Su's itinerary!"

The flame jumped more than a foot high, licking the blue sky.

The light even covered the scorching sun.

The property of more than 100 taels of silver was burned as soon as it was said, and Su Mu couldn't help but praise in his heart: This Xie Ziran is really something that can be mentioned and put down.He is only 16 years old this year, and after more than ten years of training, he must be a remarkable figure.It's a pity that this person didn't enter the officialdom, otherwise, he would be able to support him a little bit.

The flames are soaring into the sky, the fields are open, and the mountains are vast.Under the light of the fire and the sun, the Loess Plateau seemed to be melting, flowing golden.

Su Mu couldn't help but let out a long cry, "The desert is windy and the sun is dark."

Xie Ranran then shouted loudly: "The red flag is half-rolled out of the gate."

"The former army fought against Taohe at night."

"Tuyuhun has been reported alive."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The two laughed out loud at the same time.

Soon, the results came out.

In this battle, Su Mu and Xie Tianran beheaded three ranks and captured four Tatar war horses.

Of course, the civilian husband also died one person and injured six others.

The civilian husband who died will have his own pension after he is reported to the court.Of course, there is not much left after the pension has been deducted layer by layer.So, Xie Ranran took out another 20 taels of silver to make up for it.As for the injured civilian husbands, each of them had five taels.The rest are one or two.

Seeing that Xie Xie was naturally so generous, everyone cheered.

My heart is full of regrets. I knew that the wounded would have five taels of silver to take, and I should have been more brave when fighting the Tatars.

Beheading three ranks, that's no small credit, and it can't be cheap for the frontier army.

Su Mu then ordered Zhao Hulu to take out the Four Treasures of the Study, and wrote a good report in a flash.Naturally, Xie Ziran's name would also be on it.

Seeing that Su Mu wrote an excerpt in an instant, the cursive handwriting is so beautiful, Xie Ranran admired it even more in his heart: As expected of the number one scholar, although this essay is ordinary, this kind of official document is not so particular.This handwriting alone has already established a sect.If there is such a teacher, it is thanks to the good fortune of nature.

Originally, Xie naturally had no idea about participating in this year's provincial examination.It is of course a great joy to win, but it doesn't matter if you don't win.He has earned a huge net worth, has a worry-free life, has a reputation as a scholar, and is also a figure of status in the local area.

As for whether he can be an official, he has no obsession.

Now, there is a sudden longing in my heart.

"Bachelor, Xie is naturally just a small scholar. It doesn't matter if you write the name of the late student or not."

Su Mu smiled: "No, if Junfu has won the honor of raising people this time, he might as well become an official and serve the country. But with your contribution, it is not a problem to get an official position. The Tatars have repeatedly violated our borders and slaughtered us. The people of Ming Dynasty. Junfu is outstanding in martial arts, and he should really serve the country."

Xie naturally did not object.

In fact, Su Mu has already figured this out, and loves this talented scholar who is versatile in both civil and military affairs.If this person passed the examination all the way through the journey, he didn't know how many years he would have to wait until he became a Jinshi.It's better to enter the officialdom now. There is a shortage of talents in the frontier army, especially civil servants.

Thank you for your natural talent, if you become a county magistrate or county magistrate in the interior, I am afraid that you will not be able to use his talents, but you will bury him.

Moreover, Xie Ranran was able to frankly tell himself about Qiu Yue's poisonous plan just now, in terms of the unspoken rules of the officialdom, he had already invested in Su Mu's court.

As for his subordinates, he, Su Mu, must of course support them well.

With Su Mu's friendship with the emperor and this military achievement in his hands, it is no problem to get Xie Ziran a civil servant of the seventh rank in the frontier army.

Soon, the good news was urgently delivered to the capital at [-] li.

************************************************

Just as Qiu Yue expected, the team of Tatar scouts just entered the ambush circle of the frontier army on the way back.

Qiu Yue also had a good idea. After ambushing Sumu's convoy, the Tatars escorted a large amount of luggage. They must not be able to move fast. At that time, the frontier army only needs to charge to resolve the battle.

Unexpectedly, this team of Tatars didn't bring anything. After seeing the frontier army, they relied on the speed of their horses to break out of the encirclement in just an instant.

Although the frontier army dispatched 1000 troops, they were all infantry. When the Tatars disappeared, the team had not yet started, and they could only watch the Tatars' horse buttocks eat dust.

After working for a long time, he got nothing, and instead paid back tens of thousands of taels of silver, Qiu Yue was so angry that he whipped the messenger until his whole body was covered in blood.

The military system of the Ming Dynasty has been corrupted for a long time. The military household system has been implemented for more than 100 years, and the troops have no combat effectiveness at all.To put it bluntly, the Ming army was nothing more than a group of peasants with weapons.It's okay to ask them to farm the land, but it's not so reliable to go to battle to kill the enemy.

To put it bluntly, once the border war started, Qiu Yue's more than 1 soldiers were killed, and only a hundred or so soldiers could really be used.

For such a result of the battle, while Qiu Yue was annoyed, he was also expecting it.

However, he was also surprised, looking at the situation of the Tatars, it seemed that they didn't get anything from Su Mu. Could it be that the group of peasants under Su Mu were more fierce than Lao Tzu's soldiers?

Soon, spies reported to Qiu Yue about the battle between Sumu and the Tatars.

Everything became clear, and it turned out that Su Mu was able to escape unscathed entirely because of Xie Ziran.

"Thank you, naturally, good, very good. Su Mu will leave Shaanxi if he is late, and I may not be able to do anything about him. But you are a native of Shaanxi. If I want to get you, I have a lot of means. Just wait and see! "

Qiu Yue's teeth were about to gnaw into pieces, thinking how to give Xie Ranran some color.
