Fang's full moon wine is very lively. Daming's youngest preparatory uncle potato is very popular. Even Hu Guang couldn't help touching his small face.
But Xie Jin is drinking with Ma Su in his study today. He is not happy to disagree with his former colleagues.
The banquet was naturally lively. When the excitement was over, the tired Zhang Shuhui heard the bad news.
"Your Majesty needs a confidant to see the situation there. He is mainly worried that the cleaning up of the guard house will cause chaos in the north."
Fang Xing knew very well that when he went to the north, he not only had to check the situation on the Xinghe front line, but also had to inquire about the reaction of the guards in the north to the Qing army.
"It's all Ji Gang's evil. If it weren't for him, your majesty naturally didn't need to send someone. The royal guards would inquire about the news."
Fang woke up dry and comforted his wife and concubine, but Xiaobai's tearful appearance made him feel the emotion of this life.
Zhang Shuhui put the potatoes into the shaker and turned around and said, "my husband works for the country. My concubine only has support. I just ask my husband to read his wife and children and always remember his safety."
……
The snow on the grassland is the best defense for the garrison of yuxinghe fort. Unless they are crazy or think the position of Xinghe fort is important, arutai and Wara people will not attack here in winter.
However, commander Wei made Wang Huan feel better. Early in the morning, he took two thousand officials to patrol the city.
Xinghe fort is the arm that Daming stretched out from the Great Wall. It may become an abandoned son at any time, so it is inevitable that it is worse in construction.
Liang Shun walked on the snow covered street and looked at the sergeants lazily sweeping the snow. He couldn't help but say, "Sir, these boys don't seem to be practicing! Why don't the lower officials call them later?"
Although it was Wei, there were only two thousand households in Xinghe castle. Yang Fuhong, another thousand household official, touched his greasy fat face, glanced at Wang Huan and said with a smile: "Lord Liang, you and my subordinates are like this. If you practice too much, the dead are inevitable. At that time, we have to fight a lawsuit with Xuanfu. Why!"
Liang Shun looked at Yang Fuhong's pudgy figure and said disgustedly, "Lord Yang, your command hasn't practiced for a long time?"
"Yo!" Yang Fuhong said with a smile, "yes, everyone is the same. Why don't lord Liang take it with him today? Yang is very grateful."
Liang Shun said contemptuously, "if it weren't for the sake of adults, Liang wouldn't be with you!"
Yang Fuhong was not annoyed, but said with a smile: "please Lord Liang, but take it easy. Yang doesn't recognize people who have died of practice."
Wang Huan didn't want to take care of the disputes between the two men. Seeing that the people were also lazy, he said, "alutai won a great victory. Who knows if he will raid Xinghe and make the brothers busy, run and get hot."
Liang Shun immediately strode over, but Yang Fuhong said with a smile: "Sir, the lower officer thinks you are too worried. The Tatars won't go out of the tent in winter, otherwise their cattle and sheep will be frozen to death."
Sometimes people on the grassland are not as important as livestock, and it is not uncommon for people and livestock to live in a tent.
Wang Huan's eyebrows frowned tightly, "be careful. There's no big mistake. We're alone on the grassland. I'm worried every day. Even if I wake up one day and one night, I'll be blocked in the city. Has the scouts been sent?"
Yang Fuhong said with a smile, "send it. Sir, isn't that Xinghe Bo coming in these days? Even if alutai wants to sneak attack, he doesn't dare to come when he hears his name!"
Wang Huan sighed, "be careful, there's no big mistake!"
When the snow in the city was almost cleared, several scouts rushed into Xinghe castle.
"My Lord, Jubao mountain guard is not far away."
Wang Huan breathed a sigh of relief and then ordered, "let more than 100 households wait at the gate of the city."
It was very cold. When people gathered in the city gate, they could only hear the sound of sniffing.
Liang Shun looked at the distance and said, "Sir, that Xinghe Boke has made great achievements in the war. Did your majesty send him to attack alutai?"
Yang Fuhong yawned and said, "think about it with your head. Who will start troops in winter?"
Liang Shun said contemptuously, "Li Shuo entered caizhou on a snowy night."
"Come, come, stand up straight!"
Wang Huan's voice interrupted Yang Fuhong's retort, and everyone lined up and walked out of the city gate.
In the snowy sky, dozens of cavalry rushed over and the leader shouted, "Xinghe bojiading Fang five, but Lord Wang?"
Wang Huan hurriedly replied, "it's Wang, but uncle is here?"
Fang Wu wiped the melted snow off his face and said, "it's coming soon. Our department needs hot water."
Wang Huan knew how difficult it was to march in this weather, so he immediately ordered: "hurry and let the people help, burn the hot water and check the residence again. Bedding is indispensable."
When Fang woke up and led the team, the hot water in the city was ready. Even doctors were called together to deal with the injured.
"Hard work, Lord Wang."
Fang Xing was very satisfied. This time he led his department to the canal, and then trekked all the way to xinghebao. It was easier than the last trip, and the preparations were much better.
"Uncle, more than 30 people have been injured, and the equipment has been received."
Lin Qun'an ran back and forth. Even Wang he had to check the number of people and materials. He was too busy for a while.
Wang Huan said with a smile, "when uncle came here, the heart of the lower official fell. Alutai must not dare to fight."
Fang woke up and nodded, "but don't be careless. The Scouts must spread out and pay attention to the beacon tower."
Wang Huan couldn't help feeling a confidant, nodded and said, "the lower officer hasn't slept well since he was stationed here. He's afraid of a sudden attack by Tatars and warras."
Fang woke up and said, "it's getting late. Ben, go wash first and discuss business after dinner."
As soon as Fang woke up, he directly occupied the original territory of Wang Huan, but it was just a small courtyard with two entrances.
After taking a bath, Fang woke up and went to sleep regardless of his dry hair.
……
Dinner was very simple, a canned fish and a small dish of pickles, but Fang woke up and had a good appetite. He ate three big cakes.
After dinner, Fang woke up and strolled in the small yard, thinking about the health station quietly patrolling all the way.
In the north, the closer to the frontier fortress, the fuller the guard station will be, which is also related to the effective supervision.
However, there are still cases of embezzlement and corruption. Fang Xing wrote memorials and sent them to Jinling.
The arrival of the other party's awakening department in Xuanfu was not very enthusiastic. After all, their old officer Zheng Heng was planted in Fang Xing's hands.
"Master, Lord Wang, they are coming."
Fang woke up and nodded, then went to the front lobby.
"Sit down."
As soon as Fang woke up and went in, he asked bluntly, "have you seen the enemy's Rangers recently?"
"Yes." Wang Huan is obviously familiar with the situation, which makes Fang Xing feel more good about him.
"Uncle, those Tatar cavalry are often close to Xinghe. They are not afraid to meet our scouts, so they are peeping from a distance."
When Fang woke up to see Wang Huan's face showing tension, he comforted and said, "this is arutai. He was afraid that his Majesty would enlist again, so he sent someone to investigate. It's all right."
