The officers told every soldier Wu Shigong's ideas and arrangements overnight. All soldiers were also warned not to reveal this secret to outsiders.
Near noon the next day, Wu Shigong and his soldiers finally arrived at Guide Mansion. Zhao Ming was also very happy to see Wu Shigong coming as promised. In the evening of the same day, the main officials of Guide Mansion and Guide
The military attachés of Wei, led by Lord Fu Zun and Zhao Ming, also held a banquet in honor of Wu Shigong.
At the banquet, everyone can imagine the high-sounding words that Mr. Fu Zun and Zhao Ming said to Wu Shigong. Wu Shigong also responded positively to these adults, and he kept patting his chest to express his determination. Anyway, it was in vain.
To Kong, Wu Shigong definitely didn't take his words of determination to heart.
At the end, it was still a regular program - the red cards from various brothels came in, and then... I don't know how, but Man Ling, the top girl in Guide Mansion, was arranged to accompany Wu Shigong.
This time, Miss Manling's attitude was slightly better than the absolutely cold attitude towards Wu Shigong the first time. She even took the initiative to toast Wu Shigong and wish Wu Shigong in advance: "Return victorious."
Wu Shigong also politely thanked Miss Manling for her kind words. However, Wu Shigong was really not in the mood to have fun now, so he didn't stay for long, excused himself because he was tired, left the banquet and went back to his camp to rest.
Wu Shigong left in a hurry, which made Manling feel very angry. Of course, Manling would not be interested in Wu Shigong, a small Qianhu who wanted looks but no looks, and status but no status. But Wu Shigong saw Manling twice, but
Not even a hint of Brother Zhu's appearance has been revealed in front of Man Ling's eyes. How does this make Man Ling feel uncomfortable?
What's even more outrageous is that Wu Shigong left in a hurry both times, as if he didn't take Man Ling to heart at all. How could the arrogant Man Ling endure this? If there weren't still so many literary figures
The guest pursues Manling, and Manling almost doubts her own beauty.
Man Ling didn't know that Wu Shigong did not take her to heart, but Wu Shigong was not unmoved by Man Ling's beauty. However, Wu Shigong was about to go on an expedition. To be honest, Wu Shigong was under a lot of pressure.
He has become less obsessed with flirting with women.
Of course, if Man Ling took the initiative to throw herself into her arms today, Wu Shigong would not mind spending the night with Man Ling to vent in order to relieve the mental pressure. But Wu Shigong knew very well that based on Man Ling's attitude towards him, then
This kind of thing is absolutely impossible to happen, so Wu Shigong doesn't need to show off to Man Ling and do that useless work.
After Wu Shigong returned to his barracks, he fell asleep early. He slept very deeply. In the past few days, Wu Shigong was rushing back and forth between Guidefu City and Qianhusuo Fortress, and he was indeed a little tired.
.
The soldiers of King Qin mobilized from other Qianhu households also rushed to Guide Fucheng to gather in the past few days. After the roll call, these soldiers, led by Yu Ji, were incorporated into King Qin's army and were put under Wu Shigong's command.
Wu Shigong observed the soldiers, and there was no shortage of them. However, all the soldiers seemed to have come out of modern concentration camps. Except for the military attaches who led the team and the dozens of soldiers around them, the other soldiers were all
They were skinny and skinny. They were in sharp contrast to the soldiers in Wu Shigong's Qianhu Division who had ruddy faces and covered their bodies with fat and muscles.
But Wu Shigong couldn't say anything about the physical condition of those soldiers. Because in the Ming Dynasty, the poor people basically looked like this because they were in a state of semi-starvation for a long time and had no nutritional supplements at all.
Looks like this. As an ordinary military household at the bottom of society, of course this is the case.
However, the physical fitness of these soldiers is only a little bit poor, but in such a cold weather, almost half of them have no cotton-padded clothes, let alone any tent quilts.
This made Wu Shigong very worried. When he went to Qinwang in the capital this time, Wu Shigong led the soldiers to go north, and it was almost winter again. If they camped in the wild, Wu Shigong was afraid that the soldiers would freeze to death and frostbite. Don't
When the time came, the Tatars did not kill a few of their own soldiers, but God caused a large number of casualties to their own soldiers.
Anyway, I was in trouble now, so I asked Zhao Ming. Wu Shigong asked Zhao Ming for a large number of tents and quilts. But Zhao Ming stretched out his hands to Wu Shigong, but there were none.
Zhao Ming vomited his bitter words to Wu Shigong: The last time the Holy Spirit Society rebelled, most of the weapons in the guide guard's arsenal were distributed. However, after the incident, only a small part of those weapons were recovered.
But this time when Wu Shigong went to King Qin, in order to distribute weapons to those soldiers, basically all the weapons in Guidewei's arsenal were emptied. Even Zhao Ming used his own pockets to purchase additional weapons after the Holy Spirit Society rebelled.
All the gunpowder was given to Wu Shigong this time. But now Zhao Ming is really powerless to purchase those tents and uniforms.
However, Zhao Ming was still willing to help, so he asked the governor of Guide Mansion for help. King Qin's important matter was more or less taken seriously by the officials of Guide Mansion. So in the end, some tents and tents were finally solved for Wu Shigong.
Convinced. Faced with this situation, Wu Shigong could only think helplessly: The boat will straighten out when it reaches the bridge.
On October 15th, under the auspices of the Governor of Guide Mansion, Guide Mansion officially held a strong marching ceremony for the army of King Weiqin of Guide. Wu Shigong was surprised to find during the ceremony that except for the moment when he drank three glasses of Zhuangxing wine,
Apart from the time spent, those soldiers who went on the expedition were completely reduced to supporting roles in the grand march ceremony.
And in this solemn ceremony, it became a stage for literati. They talked about poems and performed ancient rituals, and they were all busy and enthusiastic. However, they did not solve any practical problems for Wu Shigong. After finally getting to the auspicious time, Wu Shigong seemed to be running away.
In the same way, he took these soldiers and left Guide Fucheng.
During this expedition, in addition to giving each soldier one tael of silver as a settling-in allowance, the gentry in Guide Mansion also collected 800 taels of silver and some pigs and sheep to reward Wu Shigong and the others. In addition,
In addition, before leaving Guidefu City, as a courtesy, Wu Shigong went to Hou Xun's mansion to say goodbye.
Hou Xun had been resurrected by Emperor Chongzhen a long time ago and was now an official in the capital. Therefore, the person who received Wu Shigong in the Hou Mansion was Hou Xun's father, Mr. Hou. Mr. Hou was also a Jinshi and once served as a nine-year-old scholar.
Qing's senior official. Therefore, Wu Shigong saluted Mr. Hou with the etiquette of a junior.
Of course, Mr. Hou knew from his son Hou Xun before that Hou Xun wanted to win over Wu Shigong. So he was polite to Wu Shigong and even encouraged Wu Shigong. Even when Wu Shigong left, Mr. Hou said
He even took out five hundred taels of silver as a reward for Wu Shigong.
In addition, the governor of Guide Prefecture also prepared some large vehicles and four days' rations for King Qin's army. After Wu Shigong and King Qin's army arrived in Jining, Wu Shigong's supplies would be supplied by water transport warehouses on both sides of the canal and local stores. The government will provide it.
Of course, the materials and food prepared by Wu Shigong himself were relatively sufficient. Because Wu Shigong also had many mules, horses and carts, Wu Shigong carried a large number of carts and filled the carts with supplies. But because he got The supply of grain and grass was guaranteed, so Wu Shigong did not bring much grain and grass from his thousand households.
And when he left Guidefu City and the march began, Wu Shigong discovered that the situation was simply terrible. Wu Shigong's own soldiers from Qianhu Station had received training in marching and formation, so they marched backwards well during the march.
But the march of the nine hundred soldiers in other Qianhu Stations was not even as good as modern primary school students going on spring outings. Wu Shigong also knew that although these soldiers had the title of military household, they basically had not received military training. However, the poor performance of the march was beyond Wu Shigong's expectation.
You know, because the soldiers walked very loosely, the marching team was stretched very long, and it was difficult for the officers to detect whether any soldiers were left behind.
So although it was not dark yet, Wu Shigong ordered the camp to be set up about ten miles away from Guidefu City. Wu Shigong had to seize the time and arrange for the nine hundred soldiers to be trained as quickly as possible.
