Chapter 435 Substitution
From northern Xinjiang to eastern Xinjiang, the climate gradually warmed up. Although it had been a whole month, Meng Chang'an's legs were naturally not easy to be rigorous, or because of the sudden warmth, the wound was a little itchy. Perhaps it was because Mr. Chu's medicine was really effective and the recovery speed was much faster than normal.
After entering Gaoshang Road, follow the land route to the southeast. Meng Chang'an likes the folk customs on Gaoshang Road very much. The people here have a much slower pace of life than Chang'an City. The climate is moderate and the rain is abundant, making Gaoshang a place for grain production in the eastern Xinjiang. The people in this place live a comfortable life. Because of their comfort, they treat people kindly, unlike everyone in the northern Xinjiang who has a bit of hostility.
The sword camp in the East Xinjiang is in Chaoyang City, while the Armorial Reservoir of the East Prefecture is in Yaoyue City. The two places are separated by two hundred miles.
Maybe I was really afraid of the general of the East Xinjiang, so I put the Eastern Prefecture Armory a little further, so that I would not be scolded all day long. The general scolded people no matter who you are, no one in the East Xinjiang was bigger than him.
Fang Jingshan, the deputy chief of the Eastern Prefecture Armory, was scolded and cried by Pei Tingshan when he first arrived, but no one would laugh at him. After all, he was insulted by Pei Tingshan pointing at his nose. If he could not be moved, he would be afraid that no one would do. This is actually quite polite. How many local officials have been beaten by Pei Tingshan? There was once a county magistrate who was whipped twenty times by Pei Tingshan, and the person was almost dead.
Later, Fang Jingshan was promoted to the post of the Eastern Prefecture Armory, and Pei Tingshan was a little polite to him, but the past was vivid in his mind, and the relationship between the two was just average.
After Fang Jingshan was appointed as the chief of the Ministry, Pei Tingshan sent someone to send gifts to show his intention of repairing the situation. However, Fang Jingshan really didn't want to deal with him more. After so many gifts he gave, he added a return gift and sent someone to send him back. Since then, Pei Tingshan seemed to understand that he had a grudge. Although this country's high position and power are comparable to that of the local emperor, the Eastern Palace Arsenal did not belong to him directly, and he had no choice. He had not yet been domineering enough to dare to whip the chief of the Ministry of the Ministry of the Arsenal.
Once, officials from the East Xinjiang participated in Fang Jingshan’s memorials, snowflakes were flying to Chang'an City. At most, the cabinet could collect twenty or thirty copies a day. Those local officials looked at Pei Tingshan’s face and did things, but they did not participate. Half a year later, because of their merits in training, Your Majesty also added Fang Jingshan’s title. Although he was only a first-class uncle, he was naturally far from being as good as the Duke, but the Duke could not come to beat him directly. Your Majesty was clear and he never handed over the memorials again.
Yaoyue City is northwest of Chaoyang City. If Meng Chang'an wants to go to Chaoyang City, he will definitely pass by Yaoyue City. He didn't plan to enter the city, but when he was still thirty miles away from Yaoyue City, Fang Jingshan sent someone to wait at the post station and invited people directly to the city.
Even the people of Daning still don’t understand the specific functions of the Four-Strip Armory. Most people think that the Four-Strip Armory is training for the Four-Strip Armory. But in fact, the 20 guard soldiers in the Daning area, the elite troops under the command of the Four-Strip Generals, and even the lieutenants and instructors of the Four-Strip Armory were sent out from the Four-Strip Armory.
The strongest of them were naturally jumped away by the generals of the four borders. Most of the remaining soldiers participated in the selection after five years of training. Those who passed the examination were selected and sent to various local war soldiers and border troops. Those with poorer grades were arranged to train among the soldiers in various local counties and towns.
For Daning war soldiers, ordinary soldiers will be rotated in five years. Basically, when the war soldiers change, nearly one-third of them will be arranged to go home. These people will be properly placed after returning to the local area. After reincarnation in five years, veterans will lead new soldiers, and Daning's war soldiers will always maintain their strongest combat power.
Children selected from all over the country will enter the Sijiang Arsenal at around the age of twelve or thirteen to participate in training. The elimination rate is extremely high. Every five years, boys of the right age will be sent in to choose. At least half of them will be eliminated and returned home after about a month.
The scale of the eastern Xinjiang arsenal ranks third among the four Xinjiang arsenals, the first is the northern Xinjiang and the second is the western Xinjiang. The smallest arsenal is the southern Xinjiang.
Fang Jingshan is a middle-aged man who looks a little bookish, or has been practicing martial arts for a long time because of his long years of hard work and his stomach has been thrusting up.
His men felt relieved after taking Meng Chang'an. His Majesty's decree, Meng Chang'an stayed in Yaoyue City before Shen Leng arrived in Chaoyang City. He was afraid that he would lose Meng Chang'an. Who doesn't know how heavy Meng Chang'an is?
"I just feel wronged General Meng."
The Arsenal is a third-rank official, half a grade higher than Meng Chang'an. However, Meng Chang'an was granted the title of marquis and his meritorious position was higher than Jingshan, so he was even more polite.
"I have Lord Lao Shi."
Meng Changan bowed his fists and returned the gift.
"The residence has been arranged for the general."
Fang Jingshan came here to help Meng Chang'an walk forward, but Meng Chang'an was not easy to refuse. The two walked side by side. Fang Jingshan smiled and said, "Your Majesty sent people to send orders twice. It can be seen that Your Majesty cares about the general. Your Majesty said that the general would live in Yaoyue City for ten days and half a month. If nothing unexpected happens, General Shen's navy will arrive in the middle of July. There are always people watching over there. As long as there is news that General Shen is about to arrive, they will be sent over immediately. At that time, I will arrange a carriage and horse to take General Meng to Chaoyang City."
"Where has Your Majesty been?"
"Your Majesty is already in Chaoyang City."
Fang Jingshan said: "I heard that after His Majesty arrived, he went to Donghai Bay with General Pei. There was a Dinghai Mountain there, and a border city worship platform at the entrance of the mountain. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can see the Bohai Kingdom opposite the sea. However, it is all nonsense. The sea is changing with hundreds of miles, how can you see it?"
Fang Jingshan said: "Your Majesty asked General Meng to come. Does General Meng know what happened?"
"I don't know yet."
"I heard a little."
Fang Jingshan said while walking: "The Bohai Kingdom is a confidant of my Daning. If we launch troops against the black warriors in the future, the Bohai Kingdom will inevitably send troops to restrain our army in the north. Although the Bohai Kingdom is poor and poor, those barbarians are desperate for war. They are like madmen. The poorer the place is, the more fierce it is. Moreover, the mediocre people of the Bohai Kingdom actually think that the Bohai King is a god and worships it too much. In a word, the whole country is full of soldiers."
Meng Chang'an thought to myself, what does this have to do with me?
"Your Majesty means, maybe..."
Fang Jingshan looked at Meng Chang'an's face: "Maybe Your Majesty will hand over Baishan Pass to General."
Meng Chang'an felt a sudden shock in his heart.
Baishan Pass is the only entrance for the Bohai Army to attack Daning. The mountain pass is steep. Now the guard of the city pass is Yan Kaisong, one of the eight sword generals under Pei Tingshan. If Baishan Pass is not broken, the wild beast-like soldiers of the Bohai Kingdom can only go to the Heiwu Kingdom to help, but if they do that, they will not be able to restrain Daning. Facing the enemy head-on, who have the soldiers of the Daning border army feared?
"General Pei is afraid that he will feel a little uncomfortable."
Fang Jingshan glanced at Meng Chang'an's face again: "If you go to Baishan Pass, Yan Kaisong's troops will have to hand over to the general."
"Won't."
Meng Chang'an pondered for a moment: "Before I came, the general had just ordered me to station in Hanhai City. How could he let me go to Baishan Pass again?"
Fang Jingshan shook his head slightly: "I just heard it, not sure."
Meng Changan suddenly thought, if this is the case, then why would the general give him half of the twelve gun generals? The twelve gun generals are the most powerful subordinate of the general Tie Liuli, and his arms. Tie Liuli once said that if the Iron Cavalry in the Northern Frontier is a carriage, the twelve gun generals are wheels, which shows his importance.
It is said that it is to protect him from safety, but wouldn’t there be more six?
I remembered the general before leaving, saying, "You don't have personal soldiers, so I will divide my personal soldiers to you by 120 people."
Meng Chang'an was upset. If Your Majesty really ordered him to take over Baishan Pass, Pei Tingshan's intention to kill him would be even worse. This is because Your Majesty has made a clear attitude. Chen Leng has led an army alone as the admiral of the Navy Division, responsible for transporting supplies to Your Majesty the North Expedition. How dare Pei Tingshan move? That is Your Majesty's attitude.
If he went to Baishan Pass, Your Majesty would be equivalent to handing over the Northern Expedition Army and even His Majesty's own back to Meng Chang'an. How dare Pei Tingshan move? This is also Your Majesty's attitude.
With Meng Chang'an blocking the people of Bohai, Chen Leng is responsible for logistics support, Your Majesty is at ease and at ease.
But what about Pei Tingshan?
Meng Chang'an's mind kept spinning. If this happened, Pei Tingshan would inevitably feel resentful. That was because His Majesty clearly distrust him, and the position of the sword and weapon became embarrassing.
How can you tolerate Pei Tingshan's temperament?
Before His arrival in Dongjiang, some people were worried that Pei Tingshan might have an unjust act. If this is the case, he would go to guard Baishan Pass. Isn’t this force Pei Tingshan to lean against the queen? Once Pei Tingshan makes any impulsive actions, the prince will be justified in Chang'an City.
Meng Changan was sweating in cold sweat when he thought of this.
"I want to see Your Majesty."
"The general cannot see it."
Fang Jingshan said: "Your Majesty is now in Donghai Bay, at least three hundred miles away from Chaoyang City. I don't know when you will go back. If the general goes to Chaoyang City first, I can't afford it. Your Majesty's will give me the will to leave General you in Yaoyue City until Your Majesty summons you. General Chen arrives. Your Majesty will summon you two. I guess, if Your Majesty has any arrangements, it will become clear at that time."
Meng Chang'an only felt uneasy. If something happened in the East Xinjiang, even Daning would become turbulent, not to mention the Northern Expedition.
At the same time, East Bay worshipped Taiwan.
Bai Zhengtai is a border city, and its scale is naturally not as large as Chaoyang City, but its location is also important. The emperor stood on the wall of Bai Zhengtai and looked at the East China Sea. He looked back at Pei Tingshan standing behind him carelessly. Everyone, Pei Tingshan was with a knife, which was the honor given to him by His Majesty, but he should be conscious. Your Majesty promised you to bring a knife, so would you really bring a knife?
"The Bohai people are there."
The emperor was silent for a moment: "Is Yan Kaisong now in Baishan Pass?"
"Go back to your Majesty, it's him."
Pei Tingshan looked a little proud: "I have cultivated and promoted people with one hand, which is very useful."
"You use it easily?"
The emperor suddenly asked.
"Of course, otherwise he wouldn't be placed in such an important position."
"Since you are easy to use and easy to use, you should stay with you."
The emperor said in a plain tone: "Come back and serve with you."
Pei Tingshan's face turned pale: "What does your majesty mean?"
"I have been thinking for a long time. Why would you let Meng Chang'an go to Baishan Pass? Your Deli's subordinates will return to you. If you use you in the Northern Xinjiang, you can bring these Deli's subordinates you have trained to serve me."
Pei Tingshan's hand suddenly clenched the hilt of the knife, and the blue veins on the back of his hand were exposed.
Wei Lan, the commander of the big guard standing next to the emperor, also held the hilt of the knife tightly, his eyes slightly frightened.
