Chapter 718: Secret Decree

After the whole army pursued, they counted 513 heads of Japanese pirates, 754 taels of silver, and other military equipment and spoils. Qi Jiguang's newly trained Yiwu soldiers could be said to have won their first victory, proving that they could fight. This was already an incredible head merit in the southeast. Of course, Bai Lang, this Defense Commissioner, as a civil official, still took the biggest merit as a fourth-rank high civil official—so not long after returning to Wenzhou, he received an imperial decree from the capital.

"It seems that those guys can't wait. They even took the initiative to spend money for me to run relationships, and they must send me to be promoted." Although Bai Lang was a warrior among civil officials, he was also very clear about this way. This person didn't drift, forcibly wanted supplies without giving rebates, and every single thing was a shady deal that violated the rules. And he was a civil official Innate expert, really not to be offended. Then everyone had to pool money to spend money for him to be promoted, and there was also the head merit of beheading.

Bai Lang could only rush to arrange all the merits of Qi Jiguang's troops before leaving office, and he himself took his family and luggage and went to the capital by boat—this departure had six large ships to send, filled with Lady Bai Xu's dowry clothes and the gold and silver Bai Lang collected. His own things were not many, and there were not many books. The silver collected was about 100,000 taels, and there were thousands of taels of gold...

Bai Lang was a vulgar person, so there were no cultural relics, books, or paintings in his luggage, but there were several weapons—from the steel big knife with snowflake-like patterns to the three-pointed double-edged knife, and finally even an ancient iron-fetal bow. This thing was a strong bow of one stone and five dou. Of course, it was also equipped with large iron arrows. It was not bad for Bai Lang to shoot for fun. Of course, if it was used to shoot people, it could still pierce soft armor and string people up from a hundred paces away.

Arriving in the capital on this day, after staying in the post station, Lady Bai Xu wanted to see her grandfather the next day, and Bai Lang had to go to the imperial court to reply to the decree. The Jiajing Emperor generally wouldn't see Bai Lang, a foreign official—he wouldn't write Qingci, wasn't a high official in the Six Ministries in the capital, and had no urgent matters that must see this Innate expert. However, this time Bai Lang miscalculated. He thought he wouldn't see him, but it turned out that the eunuch of the Eastern Depot personally passed the decree, asking him to have an audience tomorrow.

Bai Lang would see the Jiajing Emperor of Chen's country again. He had already seen the Yan Song Yan Cabinet Minister of Ni's red before, and of course, the whole Cabinet was there, including his old father-in-law, who all greatly praised Bai Lang's courage. As a civil official, he could also charge into the formation to kill generals and cut flags, which was truly the style of Han and Tang. Bai Lang didn't be polite to these old foxes, and of course, he was full of confidence and accepted it all, without any humble words.

"Altan Khan, Japanese pirates, and other generations, in my opinion, are just marking the target and selling their heads. Another day, I will definitely cut off their heads and build a Beijing view outside the Great Wall to show off the martial arts of our Great Ming!" Bai Lang was extremely confident and arrogant in front of the big shots. He absolutely had this qualification, and the big shots only felt that there was a fierce tiger roaring on the hall. "The roar of a tiger is just like this." The chat between the big shots was also like this. This former Defense Commissioner was much braver than ordinary military generals. If it weren't for the fact that civil and military were different since the Song Dynasty, they would really want to transfer him to be a marching general or a festival envoy.

The big shots had already discussed Bai Lang's destination—the Ministry of Personnel sent him to Datong to be the fourth-rank Datong Prefect, letting him face Altan Khan directly. Thinking that this person's courage would definitely be able to calm one side, the incident of Altan Khan entering the pass in the past would probably not happen again.

The Jiajing Emperor didn't wear a dragon robe but a Daoist robe, looking like a fairy. Several inner court big files were also wearing Daoist robes to accompany the emperor to cultivate immortality. Bai Lang was in a red official robe. He had just been granted a bullfighting robe, with a unicorn dark flower rank badge, bullfighting, tall and big, dignified and dignified, wearing a beam crown but inserted with two pheasant feathers on the left and right, with raised eyebrows, star eyes, swallow jaw, and tiger whiskers. This person came with big strides when he had an audience, showing the demeanor of a dignified military general.

However, he should be a civil official...

"All evil is avoided." The big file heard this Jiajing Emperor mutter softly. At that time, he was thinking about when to invite this person to drink or something. The palace was full of Yin Qi, and there were quite a few ghosts and gods on weekdays. If he contacted this majestic and masculine person more, ghosts and gods should be scattered, right? Even Jiajing and the big husbands knew that besides Yang Lei, the Yin evil ghosts and gods between heaven and earth were most afraid of fierce generals like Bai Lang who killed hundreds or thousands of people.

Bai Lang arrived at this place where Jiajing cultivated Dao, and also brought a breath of masculine Qi. The blood was like a furnace, burning all the original Yin Qi here cleanly. Even this emperor felt refreshed in his chest for a moment, and it seemed that he had gained something from cultivating Dao... As a result, Bai Lang bowed and didn't speak for a long time. This emperor closed his eyes and practiced, and didn't speak. Bai Lang didn't care how the emperor was, and stood up straight by himself.

There was no big husband who said he was rude. First of all, he didn't dare to disturb Jiajing's "enlightenment," and secondly, this was an Innate expert, so he had to give face... After Bai Lang stood up straight, he didn't speak, and just stood there waiting for Jiajing to finish his enlightenment. After about a stick of incense, the emperor finished his enlightenment. He looked happy and a bit regretful, and looked at Bai Lang standing below and said.

"Bai Aiqing beheaded hundreds, raising the prestige of our Great Ming. You should also work harder when you go to Datong." After saying this, he glanced at Bai Lang and closed his eyes again as if he had entered meditation. "What did he call me for? It's over after saying these words?" Bai Lang was a bit puzzled. This Jiajing asked him to have an audience, looked at him, and said a word that didn't hurt or itch, and it was over? But it was good, let Yan Cabinet Minister and the others fight with the emperor. This emperor seemed to like this kind of tune.

Bai Lang bowed, stepped back a few steps, and then turned and left with big strides. Afterward, he went to the Ministry of Personnel to get the appointment, and then set off with guards and troops to Datong to take

At the same time Bai Lang received his official appointment, the Brocade Guard also dispatched guards, and there was even a secret imperial decree ordering him to take the opportunity to wipe out the malignant tumor that was Black Wood Cliff, resolve this place first, and then find a way to deal with Bansheng City. When Bai Lang received this decree, he chuckled, laughing like a tiger ready to eat someone. "Since it's this kind of business, at most three hundred local soldiers are enough to hold the fort. To go up the mountain and get things done, it would be better to call upon twenty or thirty experts from the Ministry of Justice and the Brocade Guard in the capital."
