Chapter 117: Outwitting Tongzhou
More than an hour later, the bright black armor, the robes were new, the momentum was huge, and the mighty and majestic 200 people got off the boat and came to the gate of Tongzhou City.
A large number of ships came late at night on the Tianzhang River, and Lu Guang, the general who was guarding the city, had already received a report from the soldiers.
When they came to the top of the city gate, they were wondering whose army was so imposing, and as soon as they heard the shouts of the people under the city gate, they immediately ordered the city gate to be opened.
Entering the city, Lu Guang humbly saluted Jiang Chumo and said, "General Jiang! How did you get here late at night? Send someone to inform you, and you should cross the river to meet you. β
Jiang Chumo clenched his fists, "The Holy Lord has begun to feel restless again when he hears that the land of the Southern Barbarians is going to be sent to discuss it." β
Lu Guang frowned. As far as he knew, he and the others had not reported anything to the imperial court about the Nanban being uneasy. Although the southern barbarian alien race loves to seek trouble and provoke trouble, it is not worth mentioning at all, it does not threaten the safety of Tongzhou County, and there is no need to send troops to recruit at all. After thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was not excluded that the county guard Yan Changsheng and the superintendent Shi Meilin added oil and vinegar to quietly report to the imperial court.
Thinking about it like this, although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't come out, but just respectfully led Jiang Chumo and the others towards the county guard's mansion.
Halfway through, Han Fei and Leng Yun said that they wanted to be convenient, and when they asked their soldiers, almost all of them said that they were in a hurry, and they were in a hurry.
Jiang Chumo scolded angrily, "It's not a little good!" β
Han Fei said with a smile: "It's useless!" But he was also tempted by the river. β
Leng Yun also laughed, "Yes, yes! The river is roaring, clear and lover, people have three urgency, this ...... It's hard to hold! β
Lu Guang smiled and said to Jiang Chumo: "No blame, no blame! The same was true when the humble first arrived! β
"Go, go, go!" Jiang Chumo pretended to be angry, and waved his hand unhappily to the person who wanted convenience.
More than a hundred people quickly turned to the nearest city gate, and the remaining forty or so guards followed Jiang Chumo.
Coming to the front of the county guard mansion in all directions, the county guard Yan Changsheng and the supervisor Shi Meilin were already waiting in front of the mansion with their cronies.
Jiang Chumo laughed, turned over and dismounted, and hugged his fists affectionately towards Yan Changsheng and Merlin, "After many years, how are Brother Changsheng and Brother Mei?" β
"General! Brother Chu Mo! How dare you be! "Yan Changsheng and Mei Lin are both in their thirties, and they are both Jiang Gu's protΓ©gΓ©s. Seeing Jiang Chumo was surprised and delighted, and the two of them hurried to greet them.
Jiang Chumo shushed and asked for warmth. But it is majestic and humble to the extreme.
greeted all the way to the main hall of the office, and Jiang Chumo, who was sitting at the top, told the lie lightly. This statement made Yan Changsheng and Merlin look at each other suspiciously.
At this time, the three governors in Tongzhou City were secretly guessing. Who made a small report to the imperial court in private.
It was cold for a while, and seeing that Lu Guang was silent, Merlin, who had always had a quick brain, came out to play a round, "General Jiang has worked hard all the way. There is a shortage of people and horses, and when the gentleman cooks with fire. β
A word of caution. Yan Changsheng suddenly realized, and hurriedly asked the guards in front of the door to shout, and asked him to hurry up and cook to entertain the guests who came from afar.
When the good wine and good food were served, Jiang Chumo feasted happily, and did not mention the matter of the conquest, but only talked about the old feelings. This is also in line with the meaning of the three of Yan Changsheng, and they only toast Jiang Chumo with wine.
Before I knew it, it was dawn, and there were a few wine jars, Jiang Chumo was in good spirits, and the three people who accompanied him were drunk.
Lu Guang is slightly better. can still control words and deeds, Yan Changsheng and Merlin are soft and soft, the cup is poured and drooling, and the drunken talk is continuous.
With the slight sound of neat armor and the sound of unchaotic footsteps coming to the main hall, Lu Guangha, who was holding the cup, smiled and said to Leng Yun and Han Fei: "Two generals! It's a few hours to get there, and you're not getting lost in the city......"
Han Fei and Leng Yun didn't glance at Lu Guang, and hugged their fists to Jiang Chumo, who put the cup between his lips, and said, "General!" The last general has successfully controlled the Tongzhou barracks, as well as the county governor's mansion, the county guard's mansion, and the superintendent palace! β
"What...... What the? Lu Guang's neck stretched, and then the cup in his hand fell to the ground. Frightened stood up.
Ben has done nothing in his life, and he does not seek to be promoted and make a fortune, but only wants to live a dull life like this. This sudden change of ......
His eyes swept in front of the main hall, and the morning light was blooming. It didn't look very clear with drunken eyes, but it wasn't clear anymore, and he also found that the guards had changed at some point, and they had been replaced by the guards brought by Jiang Chumo.
Jiang Chumo weighed the cup on a few pieces, stood up with a majestic momentum, and slowly turned around. The anti-scissor hand was facing the sober Lu Guang from behind, and the air pressure was all over the audience, "General Lu rest assured, his family is fine." Today's move is purely helpless, and if there is something offended, I hope Haihan! β
Recalling Jiang Chumo's rhetoric when he entered the city, as well as the absurd departure of Han Fei and Leng Yun with his troops, Lu Guang's sweat suddenly became wet, and he only felt that his body was soft, and his legs couldn't support the weight of his upper body.
Then which is the momentum of conquest, the momentum of seizing the county!
Conspiracy!
The two big characters came as a hood, and Lu Guang staggered, his back close to the pillar in the hall.
Jiang Chumo then asked Yan Changsheng and Merlin to pour sobering soup, and seeing that the two of them looked and behaved normally, he told Jiang Gu how he was wronged and beheaded...... The matter was made clear to the three of them.
As soon as the two of them heard that Jiang Chumo was not here to ask for help, but to defect, they were immediately frightened and their faces were as blue and black as Lu Guang, and their souls were not possessed.
"Ben has no intention of rebelling, just because his father and clan have wronged him!" Jiang Chumo looked around at the three people who were panicking, "Two of you are my father's protΓ©gΓ©s, and Brother Lu is also a classmate of mine." According to the law of the court, you are also implicated. Now, if you insist on not going with me and are willing to be loyal to the imperial court, I will not embarrass you, and I am willing to send someone to send you on the ship and leave Tongzhou. β
Among the people who surrendered the crime, Tongzhou was lost again, and the consequences of leaving the imperial city to report the situation can be imagined. What's more, the family is still in Jiang Chumo's hands. And how can you believe the words that are sent out of the city? The three people who are in love with Jiang Guhao weigh the pros and cons, and they are all dead. I also want the Tianzhang River to be a barrier, with Jiang Chumo commanding the army, it is not so easy for the imperial court to attack.
glanced at each other, went around a few, all knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "The prime minister has been wronged for thousands of years!" I am willing to swear to Tongzhou with General Jiang! β
"Everyone under this general is a general! Just now, they have readjusted the position of the security force in the county. Of course, each team is led by the people who will bring it. And the security forces will face a discipline rectification. After the announcement, Jiang Chumo said to Lu Guang: "Lord County Lieutenant! You're not against it, are you? β
So thoughtfully arranged, against what? Lu Guang wiped the sweat from his forehead, "It's not that the security army in wartime has always been lax in military discipline, discipline is the lifeblood of the army, and if military discipline is not strict, the army will have no combat effectiveness." Well organized! β
"Brother Changsheng, Brother Mei! You're not against it, are you? Jiang Chumo smiled slightly.
The two civil servants had no idea, and they had no objections.
Jiang Chumo took out the letter he had written earlier from his arms and handed it to Han Fei, "Han Fei!" Hurry up and send this letter to General Jiang Junwei, the cousin of the general in Quzhou! (To be continued.) )
