Chapter 4 The Minister of the Imperial Mission

Huang Boyuan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Zhu Dashan and secretly praised: "Good boy, you know how to find a legitimate slogan for yourself so soon." Zhu Dashan saw Huang Boyuan staring at him, and said a little timidly: "Huang Official, is what I said inappropriate?" ”

Huang Boyuan said: "It's appropriate, now this slogan can't be more appropriate." Old man Wang also said: "It's good to resist the Qing Dynasty and restore sight, so we will use this as a name to create a rebellion against the Qing court." After speaking, he turned his head to Huang Boyuan and said, "Huang Official, you are so active, you want to fight against us?" ”

Zhu Dashan also stared at Huang Boyuan curiously when he heard this. Huang Boyuan knew that the two of them were suspicious of him, and smiled miserably: "My family of seven is in the county seat."

Old man Wang was relieved when he heard Huang Boyuan say this. Zhu Dashan also laughed and said: "Okay, let's fuck it together, against this court." ”

The other guards and fast arresters also heard what Zhu Dashan and the three of them said, and at this time they also said together: "There is no way to live, it is the opposite of fucking." ”

Zhu Dashan stood up and said to Huang Boyuan: "Since we want to fight with the Qing soldiers, we can't just have a hundred or so people, ask the Huang officials to help appease the people in the county, and recruit the people in the county to enlist in the army." ”

Zhu Dashan also saw Cheng Deyi leading people to search for 20 knives, 30 iron rulers, and 50 water and fire sticks from the county office. I'm looking at it! Gou Xingwang led more people to walk in with more than a dozen Kuding, and said: "There is a lot of grain in the grain depot, and these Kuding still want to destroy the grain, so I arrested them all." Leave five people there to watch, and now hand them all over to the Dashan brothers, you can see what to do. ”。 Zhu Dashan looked up and found that the sun was about to set. He turned his head to Old Man Wang and said, "Old Wang, please bring some people to prepare meals for everyone" and then said to Gou Xingwang and the others: "Put them in the county jail, and wait for me to deal with them at night." ”

Gou Xingwang agreed to take people to take these errand servants, Kuai and Kudin to prison. Huang Boyuan also went into the house to write an announce.

The entire yamen was quiet, and Zhu Dashan was left alone. Zhu Dashan pondered: "Rebellion is not a word. Although it is now known that the power of the Ming Dynasty has not been completely destroyed, the Qing soldiers are already preparing to attack Chengdu. Moreover, at the beginning of the year, Wu Sangui led troops from Sichuan to attack Guizhou, and I am afraid that the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty will not be able to carry it for long. "Zhu Dashan studied for nine years of compulsory education in his previous life, and only knew that after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, there was a small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty and the Qing court for a few days. How long exactly, sorry, the teacher didn't teach.

From the little information leaked out of the government in the past few months, the Southern Ming court was afraid of the last moment. And then there is the knowledge that the national surname Zheng Chenggong has been carrying it in Taiwan for a long time, but at that time, it was far away and could not quench the thirst of the present.

Zhu Dashan thought about it and found that he didn't have a backer he could find. If you want to rebel, you have to rely on yourself, and your own understanding of the world is pitiful, and the knowledge that can help you is the point that compulsory education gives.

Let yourself rebel with this little thing, it is purely the old birthday star hanging himself - he is disgusted. But now surrender is death, run away! The whole world belongs to the Qing court, can you have the luck to hide? Zhu Dashan remembers that under the pretext of the Qing court's desire to eliminate the rebels and restore his sight, Zhu Cihuan hid for more than 50 years and did not find out and kill him. After doing the math, it was found that only rebellion could have a trace of survival.

Zhu Dashan's face was hideous at this time, and he muttered: "Since this is the case, Lao Tzu will break through and see what the world can force me to be." Thinking of this, Zhu Dashan didn't think about it, he just thought about the rebellion, no, it should be called anti-Qing now, after all, Zhu Dashan wants to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.

The first point is the army, and the famous saying that the gun comes out of power is written into Grandpa Mao's quotations. But we are not afraid of how to form an army. The Ming Dynasty had a ready-made army establishment, and there were not many people who could use it now, just a hundred people. The county town will not recruit more than 300 soldiers, but the army must be formed anyway. Only with the army can there be capital.

The second is money and food. There is no money and food, the army is also an empty word, who is hungry and who follows you desperately. Fortunately, I now hold the county granary in my hands.

The third is how to gather people's hearts, now everyone is scattering sand. Just by shouting a few words to resist the Qing Dynasty and restore sight, someone will go with you? That's dreaming.

Fourth......, I didn't expect to solve the first three problems first.

As soon as he thought of it, Zhu Dashan got up and went to the public house to find Huang Boyuan and asked Huang Boyuan to tell him about the army establishment of the Ming Dynasty. Huang Boyuan looked at Zhu Dashan and said: "I'm just a clerk, where do I know the establishment of the Ming army, even the establishment of the Qing Dynasty!" Zhu Dashan was stunned for a moment, no one knew the establishment, how to reorganize the army?

Zhu Dashan scolded and said: "No matter what the fuck does, there are only a hundred people in total now, and I don't believe that I can't form a team, master." After saying that, he went out of the yamen. Huang Boyuan looked at Zhu Dashan, who had left the yamen, and then looked at the Anmin notice in his hand. He slammed it on the table and wailed, "You puppets, kill the old man!" ”

Not to mention how Huang Boyuan wailed in the county office. Zhu Dashan walked out of the county office and saw Zhang Yongquan coming with twenty people. There is no noise in the county, and there is no fire. Zhang Yongquan walked up to Zhu Dashan with people and said: "Now that the fire in the county town has been extinguished, the ruffians who made trouble before have also been arrested and locked in prison. After Zhang Yongquan finished speaking, he lowered his head and waited for Zhu Dashan's reply, but he waited for a long time and didn't see Zhu Dashan's response. When I looked up, I saw that Zhu Dashan was just staring at him coldly, and I saw him raise his head.

Then Zhu Dashan said to himself: "Is Zhang Dianguan a local?" If you really run out of the city and come back with troops, do you think I can't find your family? Zhang Yongquan's eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames, and he glared at Zhu Dashan fiercely. I heard Zhu Dashan say again: "You said that if we rebels are defeated, whether we are killed or escape, how many locals in this county will live?" Zhang Yongquan was shocked when he heard this.

This Zhang Yongquan is really a local, although he only moved from Anju two years ago, but his whole family is in the county seat, Zhu Dashan asked Huang Boyuan about the military system in the county government, and asked Zhang Yongquan about the situation by the way.

Zhu Dashan now needs the help of locals to identify reliable personnel in the county. Although Huang Boyuan is also a local, Zhang Yongquan, who has been a warden, is undoubtedly more suitable than Huang Boyuan.

Zhang Yongquan said: "You threaten my family like this, what do you want to do?" Do you want me to rebel with you? ”

Zhu Dashan asked rhetorically: "Do you still have a choice now?" Even if the Qing soldiers defeat us, they will kill us all. Do you think the Qing soldiers will give up your belongings? Directly robbing your ready-made belongings can be faster and more affordable than the reward silver issued by the imperial court. You tell me? ”

Zhang Yongquan said: "You can't beat the Qing soldiers, you don't know how ferocious the Qing soldiers are." They kill people like chickens and dogs. ”

Zhu Dashan shouted: "It's just that I hate anyone, Lao Tzu is not afraid of death now, are you still afraid of the Qing soldiers, aren't they carrying a head on both shoulders?" Manly man, in a word, do not do it. Although Zhu Dashan seemed to be angry, he understood it very well in his heart. This Zhang Yongquan is a county warden and has great prestige among the people, if Zhang Yongquan agrees to do it together, it will be of great help to the recruitment of troops and the mobilization of the people to help resist the Qing Dynasty. But if Zhang Yongquan doesn't do it, Zhu Dashan can only kill him now.

Fortunately, Zhang Yongquan groaned and said, "Okay, I agree to do it together"

Zhu Dashan said happily: "Okay, this is a man!" Let's have a good fight with the Qing soldiers and see who the fuck is great. ”

Subsequently, Zhu Dashan called people to find Lin Zhuang, Cheng Deyi, Cheng Dequn, Gou Xingwang, Song Gaoju, Zhou Dazhu and others. In addition to the ten people left at the four city gates, the old man Wang took the ten people who cooked, and five people watched the servants in the prison, and the people who caught the light, together with the wounded eighty-three people, all gathered at the gate of the county government.

Zhu Dashan said to everyone: "We killed the magistrate today and occupied the county seat. At this time, it was too late to rebel, and now it is too late to turn back. The Qing court will not let us go, and the Qing soldiers will not let go of our belongings. What to do? We have to fight the fucking Qing soldiers to the end and carve out a way for ourselves. Lin Zhuang and the others all followed.

Zhu Dashan: "But if we scatter the sand like this now, we will definitely not be able to defeat the Qing soldiers." So we have to twist it into a rope, and we can only do it by working together. Zhu Dashan saw that everyone was listening attentively to what he said, and said: "Only by forming a team can the unified order be able to work hard in one place." Now you are a team of ten people, led by Gou Xingwang, Cheng Dequn, Lin Zhuang, Cheng Deyi, Song Gaoju, Zhou Dazhu, and Zhang Yongquan. The remaining thirteen are led by myself for the time being. ”

Seeing that everyone had no opinions, Zhu Dashan said again: "The people who were brought to the four city gates by Gou Xingwang, Cheng Dequn, Song Gaoju, and Zhou Dazhu just now are still led by the four of you. Wait for the four of you to go back and pick a deputy team for yourself. Wang Lao and the ten people who cooked the food were also led by me for the time being, and the people of the grain depot and the prison will let the yellow officials lead the people to pacify the people and maintain law and order tomorrow. ”

Gou Xingwang and the four of them were overjoyed, and hurriedly agreed: "We'll arrange it when we go back." ”

Zhu Dashan said again: "The school yard in the county has been abandoned, and it is too late to renovate it today. At this moment, Old Man Wang sent someone to say that the meal was ready. Zhu Dashan took everyone to eat together. After eating, Zhu Dashan and Lin Zhuang came to the north gate of the county seat. After these people had eaten, everyone was in good spirits at this time. Zhu Dashan is talking and laughing with everyone.

At this time, there was a man on the official road outside the north gate who was riding a horse towards the county seat, and the knight was wearing a military uniform, but it was not the uniform of the green battalion soldiers. Zhu Dashan saw only one person coming, and shouted to open the city gate. He also asked Lin Zhuang to take people to ambush on both sides of the city gate, and Zhu Dashan ran to the door to check the situation when he saw it.

It's getting dark now, so the light isn't good. The knight did not see it from afar, but rode to the gate. Zhu Dashan watched the horse run towards him without stopping, and felt that his heart wanted to jump out of his chest.

Fortunately, the knight was superb in horsemanship, and he parked the horse only three feet away from Zhu Dashan. The knight saw Zhu Dashan standing beside him in a daze, and shouted: "Go and tell the magistrate, just say that there is a minister who wants to stay in the county tonight, and there are one hundred and fifty people in the army, and you need to prepare more horse materials, and go and arrange it quickly." ”

Zhu Dashan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly bent down and said, "Yes, yes, the small one will arrange it immediately." The knight raised his hand and whipped Zhu Dashan on the back and said, "Ask your magistrate to arrange it personally, what can you arrange as a pariah?" Zhu Dashan endured the hot pain on his back and said: "Our county lord has gone to the countryside, saying that the governor is preparing to attack Chengdu." Raise rations for the governor. There were some troublemakers in the countryside, and the county lord personally went to supervise it. ”

When the knight saw Zhu Dashan say this, he said, "Then you go and make arrangements, remember that the minister of the Qin mission is from the capital, and he has to serve well." If you want to make the Manchurian master unhappy, you will all lose your heads. Zhu Dashan hurriedly said: "Remember the villain, the villain must be good to serve." The knight saw that Zhu Dashan was very obedient, so he didn't say anything. He turned his horse's head and ran out of the city.

After the knight walked away, Lin Zhuang came over and said, "Brother Dashan, do you want to make the minister of the Qin Mission?" Zhu Dashan grinned and said, "Those who know me, Brother Lin Zhuang!" You can also see that the outpost that just came was just to arrange accommodation for the Qincha, and the people who ate actually rode horses, and asked us to prepare more horse materials. That means there are a lot of horses in the Qincha team, so let's ask for it. ”

Lin Zhuang said: "Okay, Brother Dashan, you can do whatever you say." Zhu Dashan said: "Hurry up and ask Wang Lao to prepare a meal for another hundred and fifty people, and prepare good wine and food." Prepare some good horse feed. Lin Zhuang agreed to leave, and Zhu Dashan said again: "Arrange Zhang Yongquan to help guard the door at the east gate, and let Zhou Dazhu watch him." It is also necessary to inform the yellow clerk and let him arrange the reception. After speaking, he whispered: "Let Wang Lao add some croton to the meal." Lin Zhuang smiled and agreed.

Zhu Dashan saw that Lin Zhuang was going to make arrangements, and called someone to call Gou Xingwang and Song Gaoju, and asked the two to take their people to the private house next to the county government to ambush. asked Zhou Dazhu to send ten people to guard the city gate vacated by Gou Xingwang, and Zhu Dashan himself sent ten people to guard the city gate vacated by Song Gao.

By the time Zhu Dashan had arranged everything, he had already seen Qincha's team coming towards the county seat. In a few moments, the procession had reached the gates of the city. Zhu Dashan hurriedly led the people at the gate of the city to greet him, but the people in the team didn't look at Zhu Dashan and the others. Go directly through the city gate to the county office.

Zhu Dashan didn't know if the county government was ready, and he was anxious, but now he didn't dare to move. I finally waited for the team to finish. Zhu Dashan secretly counted, how many people were in the three carriages I don't know, and there were about fifty people in the Qincha honor guard. It was followed by a cavalry of a hundred men, all of them in armor. Look at their armor is all yellow, without borders, this is the cavalry of the Manchurian Yellow Banner. Zhu Dashan couldn't help but play a little drum in his heart, not knowing if his arrangement today would be successful, and whether the arrangement was enough.
