Just as Chang Yu was about to talk, he suddenly changed his mind, an unpredictable smile appeared on his face, and then he suddenly raised his right hand and clenched his fist.
Chunxiang and Jiang Quan, who were following Chang Yu, saw this gesture, and their expressions suddenly changed, but they didn't have time to think too much about it, and then they shouted: "Line up, prepare for battle!"
There was a buzz, and these eunuchs were also a little dumbfounded. Does this mean they are allowed to work in the Beijing camp?
I was panic-stricken, but I also knew that the military orders were like mountains, so I didn't dare to neglect them. I immediately mounted my horses and maintained the battle formation. One group of people set up their bows, and another group of people drew their swords and were ready to charge.
I wipe it! Chang Yu's actions immediately frightened the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp. What kind of situation is this? They will fight if they disagree!
But what are the origins of these people who look like a gang of beggars covered in dirt?
"You dare to do this, put down your weapons immediately, otherwise you will be punished as a bandit." One of the officers and soldiers yelled loudly: "This is an important place in the capital. We are patrolling the capital camp, so we must surrender immediately."
"I'll count to three. If you don't retreat, I'll kill him!" the other party shouted loudly, but Chang Yu only replied coldly, and immediately fell silent.
1. Chang Yu raised his hand and extended a finger. The officers and soldiers on the opposite side looked at each other in confusion.
Second, Chang Yu stretched out a finger again, and the eunuchs around him grasped their weapons and prepared to charge.
three!
The officers and soldiers on the opposite side dispersed in a swarm of shouts and retreated cleanly. Before leaving, they even said: "Leave quickly and don't bother anyone near the city."
Chang Yu sighed in his heart, the emperor is at his feet, the emperor is at his feet.
It can be seen how worrying the current situation of the Beijing camp is. Maybe they really don't want to die inexplicably in the wilderness fighting with this unknown people in the wilderness when it is dark and about to close the door.
"You see, as long as you are strong enough, everyone will be afraid, so what about this so-called Beijing Camp, they are just a bunch of trash!" As soon as the officers and soldiers left, Chang Yu immediately turned his horse around and loudly brainwashed the eunuchs in line!
The reason why he did this just now was firstly to test the reaction of the sergeant in Jingying, and secondly to brainwash and encourage his subordinates. Of course, if Jingying really refused to retreat, he would naturally identify himself and not really start doing it.
A few simple words made this group of eunuchs burst with confidence. So what with the so-called Beijing Camp? They all show off their power on weekdays and don't run away in panic when they see them. They are the real eggless ones.
However, Chang Yu was also obedient and led the team to leave quickly. He stopped pretending as soon as he saw fit. The guys in the Beijing camp were just frightened by him for a moment. If they turned around and brought a large group of people over or alerted Shengqian, it would be bad.
In order to hide their whereabouts, Chang Yu led the team instead of heading straight toward Panjiayao in the southeast along the moat under the city. Instead, they bypassed the city wall and disappeared into the night.
It was dark at night in the big pit in the north of Panjiayao Village. The bonfire was lit and the aroma was overflowing. The eunuchs were busy barbecuing. An afternoon of hunting gave them a full harvest. Their dinner became extremely rich, but their daily meals were also quite good. , three meals a day and two meals include meat, pork stewed with cabbage, stewed radish, and bone soup to keep you full.
People are like rice and steel. Chang Yu trains them hard, so their nutrition will naturally keep up.
In addition to those in charge of barbecues, there are also some eunuchs who are heating their earthen caves to keep out the cold at night. Although the conditions in the wilderness are difficult, there are dry firewood and dead grass everywhere, and local fuel is enough, so keeping out the cold is not a problem.
The eunuchs were busy having a picnic and enjoying a sumptuous dinner, but their leader Chang Yu had quietly returned to the city at night. He had many things to do, such as transporting the treasures of the imperial city, which was the most important thing.
From the first three cars to the more than thirty cars tonight, the treasures in the palace have basically been transported. Of course, these treasures are mainly gold, silver, pearls, jade, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, and the others are not considered to be buried here for the time being.
It was almost late at night when he returned to Panjiayao Mansion again. After moving the treasures into the tunnel, Chang Yu immediately ordered Luo Tang and others to build a wall and seal the hole, and then fill the hole with soil. So far, the palace treasures were sleeping here.
After a lot of trouble, it was already early in the morning, and everyone was extremely exhausted, so they tidied up and fell asleep.
At dawn, after the morning training, Chang Yu ordered the eunuchs to enter the city in batches immediately. With their swords and bows hidden under their quilts and saddles, they entered the palace in such a grand manner without anyone checking. If someone with an intention to discover the secret music of Chongzhen at this time, Chang Yu would I'm afraid the head will fall to the ground soon!
But Chang Yu has that kind of self-confidence. Now, whoever in the palace doesn't sell him a bit of face, as long as he says he is one of his people, it is too late for the guards and eunuchs guarding the door to please him, and there is no way to go through the luggage.
It was only about nine o'clock in the morning when we returned to the palace. As soon as we entered the Prince's Mansion, we met Zhu Cihong who was hurriedly going out.
"You are back. Wu Mengming was looking for you everywhere and said he wanted to discuss with you about paying for his trip to the northwest."
"Where is he?" Chang Yu asked.
"Jinyiwei North Town Fusi" the prince said and left in a hurry.
Chang Yu grabbed him and said, "Have you ever delivered the precious silver you caught yesterday? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"That's your responsibility. I don't know the details, but the money from the Li Guozhen family has been sent. As for when to release him, you decide. Now I have to go out of the palace to ask for the money." As he said that, he took the people away. Looking at the back... ...very arrogant.
Chang Yu couldn't help but smile. It seemed that this guy won a lot last night, and he had set a wrong example to make this kid so interested in asking for money.
Chang Yu did not rush to Beizhen Fusi, but returned to his single dormitory and changed into clean clothes before preparing to leave, but he did not want to be blocked in the room by Fang San sneakily.
Mr. Chang, I have brought something for you. Fang San said and handed over a long object wrapped in cloth.
Chang Yu felt happy and immediately unwrapped the package, and a gleaming plain knife appeared in front of him.
What is a simple knife? Smaller than a broadsword, the waist sword is larger and similar to a saber. It is suitable for charging to kill enemies and is invincible. Chang Yu specially asked Fang Sanxun to cast it because the waist sword is too light for him, and the broadsword is heavy and does not suit his temperament. In addition, that thing is okay for bluffing people, but it is not very practical.
"It is made of finely tempered steel and made by famous craftsmen. I once tried it when I was young. It is so sharp that it can cut through three bowls of bamboo with one stroke."
"Really?" Chang Yu was overjoyed. He had seen a video in his previous life, in which a Japanese samurai sword slashed a thick bamboo pole diagonally, cutting off eight bamboo poles with one stroke. It was so shocking that it was unforgettable for a long time. Even the last time he purchased it from Jingying When it came to weapons, I asked the craftsman Fang Sanxun to help me make a handy weapon, and it was required that it only have one sharp edge.
Covering the handle of the knife with both hands, he waved it vigorously a few times. Chang Yu walked out of the room and asked, "You can actually bring this thing into the palace?"
"Hey, the little one was hidden in a wooden box and placed in the truck of the Xinxing Department. The Xinxing Department originally wanted to open it and look at it, but they gave up after telling the little one that it was your belongings." Fang San laughed. road.
Chang Yu's face slowly changed color. This kid actually learned how to pull off his own tiger's skin. He couldn't encourage this matter, but he was doing things for himself after all. He couldn't be too harsh. He just said lightly: "Be low-key in the future and pay attention to the impact."
Although the three Fangs were young, they were also smart. They understood immediately and quickly corrected their expressions: "I understand, little one."
In the side yard of the guards of the Prince's Mansion, Chang Yu firmly grasped the plain knife about 1.8 meters long and tried hard to chop at a wooden stake for practicing.
There was a click, as clear and crisp as a giant ax chopping wood. The thigh-like wooden stake broke with a sound and the cut was smooth. This made Chang Yu extremely satisfied. You must know that the wooden stake is dry wood and it is very difficult to chop. Although the appearance of this knife is simple, But absolutely sharp.
"How much does this knife cost?"
"I promised the craftsman five taels of silver," Fang Sandao said.
Chang Yu nodded. The price is absolutely fair. An ordinary single sword is usually around two taels of silver. It is really not expensive to temper steel with this kind of quality for five taels.
It is said that in the Ming Dynasty, except for food, other prices were low, even too low, especially weapons. A single sword of two taels of silver was only enough to pay for materials. As for wages, they were almost negligible, because craftsmen these days were equivalent to civil servants. The wages given are so low that it is difficult to support a family.
"Take fifty taels of silver and give it to the craftsman. By the way, he can help me make a set of helmets and soft armor. The sooner the better. If the work is completed within three days, the wages will be doubled."
After letting Fang San measure the size, Chang Yu hid the simple knife and then left the Prince's Mansion and went straight to the Jinyiwei Yamen in the south of the palace.
