"I've seen you, sir." Long Shangdeng straightened up, stood in front of a person, and shouted loudly. Not only him, but most of the leaders of their house who had been awarded official posts by the imperial court were also standing here, shouting loudly to the people in front of them.
With.
"I am just a junior official of the first and seventh grades. Most of you have the official titles of the fourth, fifth and sixth grades. I am not worthy of being called an lord." He Wenchang stood in front of them and said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth.
"Your Excellency is a minister who came down from the Ming Dynasty. According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, he is an imperial envoy. An imperial envoy is a senior official. How can he not be called our lord?" Long Shangdeng said in unskilled Chinese.
He had already found out clearly that the person in front of him named He Wenchang was the general secretary of the Ming Emperor. Although he didn't know what kind of official the general secretary was, the officials around the emperor sent foreign missions and everyone had to do it.
He still understands what he is doing, so he respects him very much.
He Wenchang laughed after listening to his words and said: "The imperial envoys of the Ming Dynasty do not have the rules of meeting senior officials. According to the dispatch and promotion of envoys ordered by His Majesty, which civil and military officials can be controlled, the position in front of these officials is higher; not to mention that I also
I can’t be considered an imperial envoy. Even if there are rules for meeting an official, it’s not my turn.” But he didn’t refute their words of calling him “sir”.
Although Long Shangdeng had never been in the officialdom, he understood that he was accepting the honorific title of his master. He smiled secretly in his heart, but did not show it on his face at all. He continued to salute him respectfully, and He Wenchang immediately returned the salute.
After the two of them finished their greetings, Long Shangdeng asked: "Master He, why are you coming to the camp of our chief officer now?"
"It's nothing serious. It's just that His Highness King Jingjiang suddenly felt uneasy, so he sent some people to patrol around the camp to see if there were any omissions. If there were no omissions, let it go. If there were any, they would make corrections.
"He Wenchang said.
He was previously sent by Yunxi to deliver the decree to Annan, but before he arrived in Annan, Duobang City and Shenglong City had been captured, and the decree he wanted to convey was of no use.
After that, Zhang Wen and others left him to live in Duobang City for a few days, and sent him to Zhu Zhanyi's army to be the person who dissuaded Zhu Zhanyi from calming down when his blood was boiling. After all, he was an official around the emperor, and Zhu Zanyi had to give him some help.
Divide into thin noodles.
However, the march and the battle went very smoothly. Lin Yurong, who was sent to Zhu Zanyi's side as a staff officer with him, showed his great ability here with several excellent judgments and accurate suggestions. He has already won Zhu Zanyi's favor and will definitely do so in the future.
He is an important minister of Zhu Zanyi's kingdom, but he is not well known yet.
He Wenchang was very depressed about this. He thought that he was good at leading troops in war, but every time Lin Yurong was the first to express his opinions. More importantly, Lin Yurong's opinions were correct. He was deeply affected by this.
, an ordinary soldier of Jinwu's avant-garde who had been so inconspicuous before had such an opinion. Is he really as capable of fighting as a soldier as he thought?
He Wenchang, who was deeply hit by this, gave up his thoughts of meritorious service and wanted to return to Yunxi and continue to be a minister. But Yunxi didn't know what he was thinking. After learning about Zhang Wen's appointment of He Wenchang, he actually let him continue.
He is doing his current job, serving as a staff officer next to Zhu Chanyi, and will return to him only after the battle is over.
He Wenchang thought about it for a long time and failed to understand the emperor's intention, so he stopped thinking about it. Since His Majesty asked him to continue to be under 0, he will continue to be under him.
He Wenchang immediately regained his energy. Although he had doubts about his military ability, he would still meticulously complete the tasks assigned by Zhu Zanyi. In the future, even if he did not know how to fight, he could still be a person in charge of daily chores in the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army.
The bureaucrats must not let these generals have a bad impression of him.
After seeing Ma Jun and other three generals today, Zhu Zanyi felt uneasy, so he sent people who did not have specific duties around him to patrol around the camp to see if there were any omissions. This included He Wenchang
.He then came out and patrolled to the southeast of the camp.
Long Shangdeng felt that Zhu Zanyi's idea was making a fuss: "150,000 troops have gathered, and all Annan soldiers are in the city. Even if there are some omissions in the camp, it won't matter." However, he naturally did not dare to shirk it, and walked into their three ministers of education with He Wenchang.
Inspection of the lawsuit camp.
He Wenchang made a careful inspection and did not see any omissions. He smiled and said: "Long Tushe is very thoughtful. It is not easy to arrange the camp in such an orderly manner."
'It's much better than those Qianhu camps to the west of you. The soldiers to the west came from Min Fan and were subordinates of His Highness King Min. Among them was a Han Qianhu, named Liu. It is said that Qianhu
He is quite trusted by His Highness King Min, but the camp is very messy.' He Wen often complained in his heart. Although he wanted to say these words, his reason told him that he could not do so, so he could only compare them silently in his heart.
"It's all thanks to the guidance of the generals of the Ming Dynasty that we can arrange such an organized camp. To be honest, the houses in our own village are in a mess and very untidy. If it weren't for the guidance of the generals of the Ming Dynasty,
, we don’t know how to arrange it." Long Shangdeng said in the spirit of giving all credit to Ming Dynasty.
He Wenchang smiled and said nothing.
They walked around in a circle and returned to the entrance of the camp. He Wenchang said: "Since there are no omissions, then I have nothing to see, so I will go back. It is already getting late, so Longtushe should rest early."
"Master He, why don't you stay and have a drink before leaving. It's not wine. We don't dare to disobey His Highness's orders on days like this. We have tea here picked from the mountains of Yunnan. I don't know if it's good or not, but it tastes good.
, Sir, do you want to try it?" Longshang mounted his horse and advised.
He Wenchang was actually willing to stay for a cup of tea, but he still had several camps to inspect behind him. He had already stayed at several Han guard posts for too long. If he stayed here for a while longer, he would probably have to wait until midnight.
Only then can you return to your camp to rest.
So he said: "Long Tushe, I'll skip it today. Let's talk about it another day, another day. I still have a few camps to inspect later, so I can't waste time."
Long Shangdeng tried to persuade him a few more times, but he just shied away. Long Shangdeng had no choice but to say to him: "Then when we break into Nanding City, I will treat you to a drink and drink the brew we brought from Yunnan."
liquor."
He Wenchang smiled and agreed, saying goodbye and going to the next camp.
But just as he turned around and took two steps, suddenly, shouts of death rang out from the front of the army.
