Chapter 94 Post-war
"Master General, Lord Qi, the Minister of Rites, is here!"
Beside Qi Jiguang, the personal soldiers spoke respectfully.
Qi Jiguang was stunned, and then he realized that this was the envoy who was on the Ming Dynasty this time. He quickly stood up and said, "Let's go and welcome Lord Qi!" He said that, and walked quickly outside.
"Yeah, Lord Qi, please come to Lord Qi!" Qi Jiguang saw Qi He and quickly bowed and clasped his fists.
Qi He was stunned, looking at Qi Jiguang who was smiling, and quickly returned the favor, "Young Master Qi, you are polite, you must be the word "小官网". As he said that, Qi He smiled and bowed to Qi Jiguang.
According to his official rank, Qi Jiguang was the governor of the Beijing camp, and was appointed as the Prince Shaobao and the Grand Governor of the Five Army Governor's Office. He was a first-rank rank.
However, when the general saw that the civil servant was three levels lower than the civil servant, Qi He was the Minister of Rites, he deserved to be the minister.
But Qi He knew that this rule was useless and not easy to use with Qi Jiguang.
Qi Jiguang was originally Zhang Juzheng's confidant general, and there were not many people who dared to wear small shoes for him, but that was nothing. However, since Zhang Juzheng's death, Qi Jiguang's market has risen, and the emperor trusted him more.
After this great victory, Qi Jiguang must have a unique reputation!
In addition, Qi Hegang was saved by someone, so it would be bad if he was in the country.
Qi Jiguang was very good at being a human being. He skipped this matter and said to Qi He with a smile: "Shilarge Qi, this time, Shilarge Qi went deep into the enemy camp as an envoy, and led the enemy alone, so that the army would be the first to win!"
"I will write to the emperor when I go back and I will report the achievements of Lord Qi and not let Lord Qi's contributions be covered with dust."
Qi Hexiao's mouth was crooked. This was a great victory. He annihilated 10,000 enemies and captured Huang Taiji's son Salik. Who doesn't want to make a contribution in such a great victory? With a civil servant who has made great achievements, that would be great!
Not to mention anything else, as the Minister of Rites, I have made this military achievements, so I am confident to let it go.
In the current situation in the court, the six ministers of the Ministry of Justice are as stable as Mount Tai, and it is not easy to be promoted to the Minister of Justice. Qi He is not capable of getting the next Minister of Justice. He is talking about it, if you keep doing it, it is not certain who will be promoted.
With this military achievements, it will be different. It is unlikely that the governor will be released from the outside, but the governor will be released from the outside.
A vassal state is also half a boundary, and this governor is a real chief official. If you work for two terms and become a governor, you can be considered as the top of your foreign position. If you go back, you will be the six ministers.
Although it seems to be a long way to go, it is actually not a long way to go! This is also a shortcut for most civil servants.
It doesn't matter if you have a false position in the capital, but you have to be highly qualified and have a high grade. Then you can seek a real position outside, even if you are a little lower than your own. If you have a few jobs and are transferred back to the capital, you will just take a real position.
I have heard that Qi Jiguang can be a human being, but I didn't expect that Qi Jiguang can be so good at being a human being.
Qi He knew that this matter would be fine, saying that it would be okay to pick up the enemy, and maybe he could still pursue him. But Qi Jiguang didn't want to do this, but said that he was luring the enemy deeper and was brave and resourceful.
This is awesome, and it has made great contributions and may even be recorded in history!
Thinking of the later generations' evaluation of themselves, it was a lone hero who was tempting the enemy to go deeper, and he couldn't even close his mouth when he smiled, and he almost saw his stomach.
Qi Jiguang looked at Qi He's excited and trying his best to hide it, and then he made another wave of flattery, almost saying Qi He was the biggest contributor this time. Qi He smiled even happier and couldn't even see his eyes.
But Qi He is not stupid either. Everyone is carrying the flower sedan chair, and Qi Jiguang is so popular that he naturally wants to repay him.
"Qi Shaobao made great contributions this time, and planned well, and made great contributions. When I returned, I would also write to the court to give Qi Shaobao's contribution to Emperor Chen." Qi He said and smiled and praised Qi Jiguang.
Behind Qi He and Qi Jiguang, Li Dong stood with a calm face.
He found that he didn't know Qi He anymore. After being together for so long, he didn't realize that Qi He had this side. Looking at Madman Qi, it was different from what he imagined! It was too far apart.
As for Qi He's contribution and what lures the enemy into the deep, this is nonsense.
Qi He ran away his pants, so how could he be brave enough to lure the enemy into the depths!
When Li Dong heard Qi He praising Qi Jiguang and writing a letter to Qi Jiguang, he immediately understood that these two people had a tacit understanding! Li Dong felt that he had learned it. Is this the reason why he has never been promoted?
Finally, he was polite, and Qi He introduced Li Dong to Qi Jiguang again.
"Li Qianhu is also a rare talent. This time he made great contributions!" Qi Jiguang said to Li Dong with a smile, with appreciation in his eyes. If Qi He is mostly flattering, then Li Dong and Qi Jiguang really appreciate it.
Li Dong also learned his lesson this time and said with a smile: "Young Master Qi praised me."
"Along the way, the Minister of Qi was not afraid of danger. Facing the Oirat cavalry, he was a civil servant, but he dared to draw his sword to fight and once killed the Oirat cavalry. He was really a model of civil servants in the Ming Dynasty. He really admired the humble position of Lord Qi."
"When Bancheng was promoted, Lord Qi faced Huang Taiji's army, and he was strong and unfair, and he did not fall into the court's reputation. He was truly a literary character."
When Qi He heard Li Dong say this, he turned to look at Li Dong, and the smile on his face was also very bright. When Li Dong finished speaking, Qi He also praised Li Dong with a smile, such as being calm in the face of danger, fighting bravely, etc.
For a while, laughter and joy continued, and the three of them praised it very well.
Datong City.
Ma Lu stood on the top of the city and looked at the north with some concern, with a hint of worry on his face.
Ma Lu, who is in his forties, is a typical Guanzhong man. He is tall and strong, with a big face, a wide mouth, a square nose, and standing at the top of the city wearing armor, looking majestic. Beside him, a young general has a solemn face.
Judging from his appearance, this young man is 70% or 80% like Ma Lu, and you can tell at a glance that he is his junior.
"Dad, you have been standing here for so long, go down and take a break!" Ma Jin looked at his father and said with some concern: "If you have a son watching here, nothing can happen."
Ma Lu glanced at his son and said with a wry smile: "There is no news coming, dad is worried!"
After hearing what his father said, Ma Jin said angrily: "It's true that the court asked Qi Jiguang to take his men out of the frontier, so he wouldn't have someone follow him. The young masters and soldiers in the Beijing camp took over anything? Isn't this a mess?"
"Once the war is defeated and the Oirat attacks, the war here will be rekindled."
After glanced at his son, Ma Lu scolded: "Don't let the court do this. The court has its own plans. How can you be said here? Learn from your younger brother. You will be much more stable when you see your younger brother."
He had several younger brothers, but Ma Jin knew that his father was talking about his third brother Ma Gui.
"The third brother thinks about fighting all day long, and is immediately appointed as a marquis, and goes out of the frontier all day long, but this battle is so easy to fight." Ma Jin muttered and retorted: "This war will kill people. If Qi Jiguang is defeated, it will be a problem for us."
Ma Lu was about to continue scolding his son, but his personal soldiers walked over quickly and bowed and said, "Sir General, Eunuch Zhang is here."
Eunuch Zhang, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison, Zhang Cheng, and Qi Jiguang went out to the front line and did not follow him. They have been wandering around Datong these days. But they are still under the name of a military supervisor. No one dares to do anything to him. Ma Lu is also very troubled with him.
Although Zhang Cheng didn't do anything, who knows when he was in trouble!
"Please!" Ma Lu warned his son with his eyes, and then turned around to welcome Zhang Cheng.
Walking up the city from below, Zhang Cheng looked at Ma Lu, smiled and said, "General Ma, our family hasn't disturbed you!" He said that, and bowed to Ma Lu.
"The officials have met Eunuch Zhang!" Ma Lu quickly bowed and said, "Eunuch Zhang sent someone to summon the officials if you have anything to do. It's a cool wind on the top of the city. Eunuch Zhang should take care of her health and not get cold."
Zhang Cheng smiled and waved his hand: "Our body is still very strong, so it won't fall down when the wind blows."
The two of them politely said, and Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "General Ma, are you worried about Qi Shaobao?"
Ma Lu was stunned, then nodded: "It's a bitter cold outside the border. Qi Shaobao has been away for seven days. It's a lie to say that he is not worried. If he meets the Oirats, he will be in danger!"
After glanced at Ma Lu, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "Captain Ma can't believe Qi Shaobao?"
"Qi Shaobao has made outstanding achievements and is a top-ranking general in the Ming Dynasty. How could the subordinate officials not trust Qi Shaobao?" Ma Lu quickly denied: "It's just that the recent situation with the outside world is complicated. The third lady and Huang Taiji are fighting with each other. Maybe when the war will start in this town."
After taking a look at Ma Gui, Zhang Cheng thought Ma Lu was quite interesting.
After arriving in Datong, Zhang Cheng found that the soldiers here did not really want to fight. After years of stability, they also wanted to live a comforting life. Thinking about it, who wants to fight is nothing, but war will kill people.
As a result, they were a little dissatisfied with the court's provocation of the Third Lady and Huang Taiji.
Especially those civil officials, they were most dissatisfied with each other, and some of them had already submitted memorials to the court.
However, Zhang Cheng knew the emperor's attitude, and the memorials of these people were destined to sink into the sea. This time, the emperor asked Qi Jiguang to go out of Datong in the north to cause trouble and to establish his authority. In recent years, the border troops have become a little arrogant.
If nothing is revealed, these border troops will probably be too big to lose their tails.
In fact, Zhu Yijun was worried about this. Since Wanli, the border troops of the Ming Dynasty have developed into feudal states. This is not a good thing for Zhu Yijun. He is also thinking about reforming the military system!
If Qi Jiguang went out of the frontier, if he could fight a beautiful battle, he would establish his authority and tell the border army, "Don't make trouble, be obedient, my Beijing camp is very good at fighting."
Just as Zhang Cheng was about to open his mouth and say something, he suddenly ran to Yiqi in the distance, shouting loudly while running: "Great victory, great victory, Qinghugou victory!"
