Chapter 423: Song Yi's Clever Plan to "Become an Army"
The city of Pingxian County has become a pot of porridge at this time. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The more the county magistrate did not show up, the county magistrate Zhang Yingbiao shrank behind the many officials, and shouted hoarsely: "Calm down! Everyone calm down! Run forward, I, I, I ...... This official will order the killing!"
In fact, although the officials did not raise their knives to kill, in such a chaotic crowded stampede, more than one life had already been caused.
The people are going crazy, who cares about Zhang Yingbiao's lack of confidence?
Zhang Yingbiao's heart was in turmoil, he was just a petty official of the eighth grade, when had he ever presided over such a thing? If he succeeded in letting the people storm the city today, he would not be promoted here, but whether he could keep his head or not.
"Where is the Fang County Order?" In a hurry, Zhang Yingbiao swept the corner of his eyes and saw a figure running sideways under the city wall. He sprang up at once, and hurriedly chased after him.
"Ding He!" Zhang Yingbiao shouted, "You stop!"
He didn't think much about it, and only tried to catch up with the other party.
This Ding He is the confidant of Fang Yue, the county commander of Ping County, Fang Yue took Ding He to take office, and as soon as he came, he made Ding He the first master of Ping County. Seeing Ding He at this time, how could Zhang Yingbiao let it go?
However, Ding He is short in stature, slippery, and Zhang Yingbiao is tired day after day, even if he fights up at this time, it is only the end of a strong crossbow, and it can't last at all.
Ding He slid left and right, and saw that he disappeared under Zhang Yingbiao's nose.
And the crowd squeezing wildly rushed even more, Zhang Yingbiao just now in order to chase Ding He, he actually broke away from the protection of the officials, and was surrounded by the crowd for a while.
"The dog officer is here!" I don't know who shouted, and then a vinegar bowl fist came to Zhang Yingbiao.
Zhang Yingbiao was horrified: "Oh no!"
For a moment, I felt that I should say "my life is resting" to the sky like in the play.
Of course, in fact, he didn't have time to shout anything, and he was hit by a punch that came from nowhere, and his eyes were dizzy.
Immediately afterwards, another pair of brute force and fierce arms encircled his neck, Zhang Yingbiao was confused, and only heard a loud shout: "The dog official Zhang Yingbiao is in my hands! If you don't open the door again, we will kill us now!"
Then I don't know what happened, and suddenly there was another bang.
"The gates are open!
The earth-shattering cheers rang out, I don't know how many people were laughing, and some people were crying.
Zhang Yingbiao's body was cold to the bone, and he only felt that there was a white color in front of him, and there were all figures who couldn't distinguish the color.
He was caught in the trap, as if he had rushed to the front.
"Are you going to die......" he thought to himself, "unfortunately this is not the way I want to die......"
In the distance, there seemed to be a neat, thunderous sound of "Dede" on the official road.
There are many mountains and hills in the area of Pingxian County, after the city is built, the west city gate is facing Kaifeng Mansion, and the road in front of the city gate is built quite a lot.
Zhang Yingbiao raised his head suddenly, his eyes widened, and then he was stunned like everyone in front of the city gate who was rushing vigorously at this time.
But I saw that in the small open field in front of the city gate, there were neat and many columns of cavalry, driven vertically and horizontally like thunder, galloping forward.
And farther away, behind the official road with corners, it was even more dusty and crowded.
"It's the imperial army!" In an instant, Zhang Yingbiao's heart suddenly relaxed, followed by boundless surprise.
Needless to say, what is surprising is that there is chaos here, and the army of the court in that compartment has fallen from the sky like a real heavenly soldier, is this an unknown prophet or what?
For a while, whether it was the chaotic people rushing around and wanting to get out of the city, or the officers and soldiers who were struggling to resist, everyone was stunned and silent.
Especially the rioters who rushed to the city, they were all just ordinary people, but the panic of the plague and the order to close the city made them really feel the horror of their lives being threatened and eaten, and some people started to guide them, which caused this chaos.
But now, such a well-armored "imperial army" suddenly appeared in front of him, and suddenly, a large number of people in the chaos were weak-legged.
The two sides were far away from each other, and for a moment they fell into an eerie silence.
Dou Siwei had a straight face, a big knife on his waist, a bow behind his back, and the heart guards on the light armor of the chain on his chest were shining, and he really looked mighty.
In fact, the excitement and apprehension in his heart at this time were the same.
He was just a small Marquis Yu, and this time he was divided and led 800 soldiers and horses. These 800 forbidden troops are enough in normal times, whether it is to maintain order or to serve as guards. But if you want to use these 800 people to quell a civil unrest, Dou Siwei knows it, but I'm afraid that he can't.
It's not that the combat effectiveness of the forbidden army is not as good as that of the mob in chaos, after all, a group of rabble, no matter how many people there are, Dou Siwei doesn't think much of it.
However, this time he led the troops out, and the first order he received was to accompany the epidemic control officials and cooperate in the treatment of the epidemic. It's not his job to quell the chaos!
Is chaos so peaceful? Who is he? Who does he represent?
Well, he represents the imperial court.
But did the imperial court give him an order? Did the emperor give him an order? Did the official give him instructions?
Nothing, what kind of mess is he flat?
If the situation is safely controlled, it is fine, but if too many civilians are killed in the conflict, who is responsible?
Not to mention that he is a seven-rank Yu Marquis, even if his immediate boss Han Yuan is here, he is afraid that he will have to be restrained!
This kind of beating can't be too hard, no matter what it doesn't work, when you encounter it, you can only admit that you are unlucky.
At that time, Dou Siwei thought that it was a big deal to have a horizontal head, and he would suppress it first.
No, if too many people die in the conflict, then it would be better to report one of them to death. Anyway, it's curing the plague, how can there be immortals when the plague comes?
But Song Yi's reaction was even faster than him, Dou Siwei was prepared for the worst, but first heard Song Yi say: "The eight hundred forbidden soldiers may not be afraid if they see it, but what if there are eight thousand or even ten thousand forbidden troops?"
Dou Siwei blurted out at that time: "How could there be 10,000 forbidden troops?"
Song Yi said with a smile: "Naturally, I want to ask General Dou to conjure it up." ”
He instructed Dou Siwei to quickly assemble the forbidden army with horses in front of him, and asked people to tie branches behind the tails of the horses, so that when the horses galloped, they would be dusty, even more than before.
He also told the sergeants who could only walk at the back to always remember to speak loudly, and distributed gongs and drums that were originally used to open the way, just to create a noise.
Although the terrain in front of Pingxian County is small and open, the official road is bent to the other side.
Of the 800 forbidden troops, only 300 cavalry were in front, blocking the crossing, and the sergeants at the back meandered a little further along the road, just talking and moving in place.
Hundreds of people are stepping together, what is that sound?
There are blind spots in people's vision, and they can only see so wide and far, but the transmission of sound is not so hindered.
In this way, after some actions, coupled with the momentum pressure at the beginning, the people here in Pingxian really thought that it was the "imperial court army" that came at this time!
And now, this "leading general" is him Dou Siwei!
Can he not be excited? How dare he not be apprehensive?
