Chapter 143 New Storm
Song Tianming was also shocked. In just a few seconds, the strong man had been beaten up for more than ten punches, and Blind Wei had no intention of stopping!
You should know that the wound on this strong man has not healed yet and his body is still very weak. If he continues to be hit like this, he may be beaten to death by Blind Wei!
He quickly grabbed Wei Wei's blind man and then covered the coffin again.
"Old brother, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong? This bastard hurts Xiaoyu, I won't ask for help?"
Only then did Song Tianming remember that there was still this, and he felt lucky.
Fortunately, Lu Xiaoyu was not seriously injured, but he was just a little chest tightness. He would be cured after a few days of rest.
If he kicked out a few things, this strong man would probably be eaten alive!
There are still many doubts about this person to be asked clearly, and he can't be killed so easily.
"Old brother, don't be excited for now. I didn't let you vent his anger!"
Wei Xiaozi said in confusion: "Sir, who are you bringing him here?"
"I said before that this guy is very skilled and has an unknown origin, so he is not an ordinary human trafficker.
I want to ask my old brother to help me think of a solution, examine him, and ask him out of his details!”
When he heard this, Wei Xiaozi laughed happily: "Sir, you are really looking for the right person. We are still good at this!"
It turns out that although Wei Xiaozi was not a member of the Dingbei Army, he also belonged to the border guarding army and was also in the vanguard camp!
And his duty is to be a scout.
The Pioneer Army is the elite in the army, so the scout of the Pioneer Army is the elite among the elite!
These soldiers not only need to have extremely strong combat power, but also need to have various reconnaissance and anti-reconnaissance skills!
Among them, torture is a necessary skill.
After grabbing the enemy's tongue, due to the urgent military situation, on-site interrogation is often necessary!
Therefore, unlike the prison interrogation of the Ministry of Justice, their interrogation skills are more primitive, simple and crude, but also equally efficient!
Since Blind Wei can sit in the position of centurion, his method must be one of the best in a million!
Wei Xiazi showed a cruel smile: "Sir, don't worry, leave it to me. Today I will ask him to give out all the colors of his mother's underwear!"
“…No need.”
After arranging these two things, Song Tianming wanted to stay for a while, but when he thought that there were still important things in the county town waiting for him to deal with, he quickly left.
When he returned to Pinxiang Pavilion, Xiao Tang immediately came to the study: "Sir, there are letters coming from the capital!"
This is what Song Tianming was waiting for and asked him to take a look immediately.
There are many letters, most of which are worship letters, most of which are high-ranking officials and nobles who want to meet Song Tianming.
This type of letter is not very important. Song Tianming just glanced at it and threw it aside.
There were only three letters that really attracted his attention.
The first letter comes from King Cheng Zhou Yan.
In the letter, King Cheng first introduced the current negotiations between Daqian and the barbarians.
The good news is that His Majesty rejected the unreasonable request of the other party to cede land compensation due to the defeat in the war, and expelled the barbarian delegation.
This news will spread soon, and it can be imagined that it will greatly boost the hearts of Daqian people!
The bad news is that the envoy was killed, and Daqian still paid a considerable price for it.
Not only did he pay the money and silk, but he also asked King Cheng to apologize to the barbarian envoys in front of the princes and ministers.
This also made the royal family lose face.
However, King Cheng said in his letter that as long as he could not give the barbarians the chance to cause trouble, it would not be considered a loss.
The Marquis of Dingbei also promised him that he would definitely seek face and justice for him in northern Xinjiang in the future!
Song Tianming couldn't help feeling a little guilty. After all, this incident was caused by himself. It can be seen that both King Cheng and His Majesty were protecting themselves intentionally or unintentionally.
And he sacrificed a lot of interests and took a lot of pressure for this.
He was very grateful whether the royal family did this, whether it was for himself or for the sake of his big deal.
At least this time, the court did not disappoint itself.
At the end of the letter, he tactfully reminded Song Tianming that the piece of porcelain customized for Princess Changping would be delivered this month, and he would come to Xiahe County in person to pick up the goods.
Of course, Song Tianming did not forget this incident. In fact, this month, except for the work of Dongpan Township, he spent almost all his time on firing porcelain.
Just after firing, he rejected more than one hundred pieces of porcelain!
And any of these so-called defective products can be enough to cause a sensation in the entire business, even the Central Plains.
However, Song Tianming had high requirements. Since he wanted to give it to Princess Changping, this piece of porcelain must be perfect!
And just the day before yesterday, the final product was officially released, and it was the one that Song Tianming was most satisfied with so far!
The second letter from King Cheng was put down, and the second letter was from Grand Secretary Guo Chong.
This is Guo Chong’s seventh letter this month.
Since Guo Chong returned to Beijing, he has helped Song Tianming find literati who are good at calligraphy and painting.
And soon he had a glimpse and sent the person to Xiahe County.
I have to say that Guo Chong not only speaks beautifully, but also does things authentically, but the level of these literati is quite good.
The calligraphy and paintings on the porcelain given to Princess Changping were all written by them.
With this good end, the cooperation between the two became closer.
In this letter, Guo Chong told him that he had found several suitable shops in the capital according to Song Tianming's request. As long as he made a decision, he would immediately help him take it down!
This is also the first step for Song Tianming to develop in the capital in the future. He carefully studied the introduction in Guo Chongxin, selected two places, wrote a reply letter, and attached two thousand taels of silver notes.
When buying a shop, the rest of the rest was all the hard work paid to Guo Chong.
Doing business in Beijing is different from being in Xiahe County.
In addition to having a business acumen, you also need to have enough connections.
There are many nobles in the capital, and the relationship between people is complicated. If he wants to gain a foothold in the place, someone must take care of him!
Guo Chong is a very good middleman.
With him helping me, you can save a lot of things. These hard work seems to be a lot, but in fact they are all necessary expenses and will be earned exponentially in the future.
The last letter comes from Dingbei Hou.
Unlike the first two letters, Dingbei Hou’s letter sent more dangerous signals.
First of all, it is the problem in northern Xinjiang.
Because of the breakdown of the negotiations and the coming of autumn, the barbarians are likely to launch a new round of invasion!
This time is different from the previous "Spring Hunting".
"Spring Hunting" is just a barbarian who came to sweep the border and grab some things. There are only a total of 20,000 troops.
However, this failure of "spring hunting" has led to an extremely shortage of grain reserves for the barbarians this year. If they are not replenished, it will be sad this winter.
So they will definitely fight this battle with the determination to fight to the death.
According to Dingbei Hou’s lead and estimate, the number of enemy troops is likely to reach 100,000!
A hundred thousand troops are approaching, that is not comparable to 20,000 "horse bandits".
The barbarians almost came out in full swing, and they fought with each other, so this battle would definitely be extremely difficult.
At the same time, the army of Dakan and the government soldiers and militias of each prefecture and county were only 200,000.
It seems a lot, but these troops cannot be mobilized at will. They still have to leave a lot of pressure to deal with the harassment of bandits, and there is also pressure from the other two countries.
The field troops that can truly be mobilized to the front line will be at most 80,000!
Eighty thousand vs. Hundred thousand, the prospects of war are not optimistic.
However, this is also a problem that the Dingbei Hou had long anticipated.
If the barbarians' request is rejected, they will definitely be anxious.
Therefore, they are already ready for a tough battle.
Moreover, as long as this battle can be won, the barbarians will completely collapse and will not pose any threat to the big fight within at least ten years!
The development of big efforts will enter a golden period!
This battle is related to the national destiny of a big fight!
Seeing this, Song Tianming also felt a lot of urgency.
Although the strong crossbow and poisonous smoke shine, the barbarians will inevitably respond. It is unlikely that they will achieve such brilliant results as before.
The letter from Dingbei Hou was actually asking himself, could he give everyone something more powerful?
For this reason, Song Tianming fell into deep thought again.
Chapter completed!
